In addition, the Morongo Band of Mission Indians requested consultation and provided their mitigation measures to be incorporated into the Proposed Project (MM TCR-3 through MM TCR-8).

Based on consultation with the tribes, the Project area has the potential for discovery of buried cultural resources. Therefore, the following mitigation measure provided by the tribe(s) shall be implemented, thus the Project would have less than significant impacts with mitigations incorporated.

MM TCR-1 The Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation Cultural Resources Management Department (YSMN) shall be contacted, as detailed in CUL -1, of any pre-contact cultural resources discovered during project implementation, and be provided information regarding the nature of the find, so as to provide Tribal input with regards to significance and treatment. Should the find be deemed significant, as defined by CEQA (as amended, 2015), a Cultural Resources Monitoring and Treatment Plan shall be created by the archaeologist, in coordination with YSMN, and all subsequent finds shall be subject to this Plan. This Plan shall allow for a monitor to be present that represents YSMN for the remainder of the project, should YSMN elect to place a monitor on-site.

MM TCR-2 Any and all archaeological/cultural documents created as a part of the Project (isolate records, site records, survey reports, testing reports, etc.) shall be supplied to the applicant and Lead Agency for dissemination to YSMN. The Lead Agency and/or applicant shall, in good faith, consult with YSMN throughout the life of the Project.

MM TCR-3 Native American Treatment Agreement. Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the applicant shall enter into a Tribal Monitoring Agreement with the Morongo Band of Mission Indians for the Project. The Tribal Monitor(s) shall be on -site during all ground -disturbing activities (including, but not limited to, clearing, grubbing, tree and bush removal, grading, trenching, fence post placement and removal, construction excavation, excavation for all utility and irrigation lines, and landscaping phases of any kind). The Tribal Monitor(s) shall have the authority to temporarily divert, redirect, or halt the ground -disturbing activities to allow identification, evaluation, and potential recovery of cultural resources and/or tribal cultural resources.

MM TCR-4 Cultural Resource Management Plan . Prior to any ground -disturbing activities the project archaeologist shall develop a Cultural Resource Management Plan (CRMP) and/or Archaeological Monitoring and Treatment Plan (AMTP) to address the details, timing, and responsibilities of all archaeological and cultural resource activities that occur on the project site. This Plan shall be written in consultation with the Consulting Tribe[s] and at minimum, shall include the following: (1) the approved Mitigation Measures (MM)/Conditions of Approval (COA), (2) procedures for each MM/COA, (3) the contact information for all pertinent parties, (4) parties’ responsibilities, and (5) an overview of the project schedule.

MM TCR-5 Pre-Grade Meeting. The retained qualified archeologist and Consulting Tribe[s] representative shall attend the pre -grade meeting with the grading contractors to explain and coordinate the requirements of the monitoring plan.

MM TCR-6 Inadvertent Discovery of Cultural Resources . In the event that previously unidentified cultural resources are discovered /unearthed during construction, the qualified archaeologist and the Tribal Monitor(s) shall have the authority to temporarily divert and/or temporarily halt ground -disturbance activities in the area of discovery to allow for the evaluation of potentially significant cultural resources. Isolates and clearly non -significant deposits shall be minimally documented in the field and co llected so the monitored ground -disturbing activity can proceed.

If a potentially significant cultural resource(s) is discovered, work shall stop within a 60-foot perimeter of the discovery and an Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA) physical demarcation/barrier constructed. All work shall be diverted away from the vici nity of the find(s), so that it/they can be evaluated by the qualified archaeologist and Tribal Monitor[s]. The archaeologist shall notify the Lead Agency and Consulting Tribe[s] of said discovery. The qualified archaeologist, in consultation with the Lead Agency, the Consulting Tribe[s], and the Tribal monitor, shall determine the significance of the discovered resource.

recommendation for the treatment and disposition of the Tribal Cultural Resource shall be made by the qualified archaeologist in consultation with the Tribe[s] and the Tribal monitor[s] and be submitted to the Lead Agency for review and approval.

Below are the possible treatments and dispositions of significant cultural resources in order of CEQA preference:

A. Full avoidance.

B. If avoidance is not feasible, Preservation in place.

If Preservation in place is not feasible, all items shall be reburied in an area away from any future impacts and reside in a permanent conservation easement or Deed Restriction.

C. If all other options are proven to be infeasible, data recovery through excavation and then curation in a Curation Facility that meets the Federal Curation Standards (36 CFR 79).

Unless otherwise agreed upon by all parties, all removed items from the Project shall be temporarily curated on -site in a secure and locked location (i.e., Conex box, a lockable office or drawer with restricted access to it, etc.). A periodic inventory must be maintained and provided to Consulting Tribe[s].

MM TCR-7 Inadvertent Discovery of Human Remains. The Morongo Band of Mission Indians requests the following specific conditions to be imposed in order to protect Native American human remains and/or cremations. No photographs are to be taken except by the coroner, with written approval by the Consulting Tribe[s].

A. Should human remains and/or cremations be encountered on the surface or during any and all ground -disturbing activities (i.e., clearing, grubbing, tree and bush removal, grading, trenching, fence post placement and removal, construction excavation, excavation for all water supply, electrical, and irrigation lines, and landscaping phases of any kind), work in the immediate vicinity of the discovery shall immediately stop within a 100 -foot perimeter of the discovery.

The area shall be protected by the esta blishment of an ESA with a marked boundary. Project personnel/observers will be restricted from entry into the ESA.

The County Coroner is to be contacted within 24 hours of discovery. The County Coroner has 48 hours to make his/her determination pursuant to State and Safety Code §7050.5. and Public Resources Code (PRC) § 5097.98.

B. In the event that the human remains and/or cremations are identified as Native American, the Coroner shall notify the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) within 24 hours of determination pursuant to subdivision (c) of HSC §7050.5.

C. The NAHC shall immediately notify the person or persons it believes to be the Most Likely Descendant (MLD). The MLD has 48 hours, upon being granted access Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

4.19.1 Impact Analysis
a) Would the project require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or stormwater drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunication s facilities, the construction or expansion of which could cause significant environmental effects? Less Than Significant Impact . There are existing utility infrastructures within the Project area for telecommunications, electric, natural gas, and wastewater treatment. The Proposed Project will connect to existing utility services during operations. No off-site expansions are proposed.

The Proposed Project will install a new water tank on City property to increase water storage in the City. The intent of the Proposed Project is to provide recycled water for City use; it would not be used to meet demand due to population growth. meet the critical public drinking recycled water demands as the City continues to be impacted by a multi -decade drought . The City’s Municipal Utilities Department operates and maintains a water distribution system with an approximately 54.5-million- gallon maximum s torage capacity (City 2025 a). The Proposed Project would increase the existing capacity by 2.75 MG and will utilize existing infrastructure for water distribution.

The Proposed Project would result in an increase of impervious surfaces to the area causing additional runoff. As previously discussed, the Proposed Project will comply with the NDPES Program by implementing SWPPP BMPs to address additional runoff. Impacts would be less than significant. b) Would the project have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future development during normal dry and multiple dry years? Less than Significant Impact. The Proposed Project would not result in requiring a significant increase in water supplies as there is no increase in personnel expected at the Project site. There is existing landscaping on the Project site that already requires irrigation. Any additional landscaping for the Proposed Project would involve a minimal increase in water usage for irrigation. In fact, the Proposed Project would install an additional water tank to increase the City’s water storage. No additional expansions or new entitlements are required for the Proposed Project. Impacts would be less than significant.
c) Would the project result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments?
Less than Significant Impact . The City’s existing WWTP will have adequate capacity to serve the Proposed Project because the proposed activities are not introducing additional water demand in the area. The Proposed Project intends to increase the City’s water storage to address existing demands of the public. As previously discussed, there are no proposed personnel increases or need for irrigation that would increase the need for wastewater treatment facilities. Impacts would be less than significant.
d) Generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals? Less Than Significant Impact. The City’s Sustainable Community Element identifies waste reduction and recycling goals within the City. Waste reduction goals include the reduction of generation of solid waste. These would meet the State’s policy goal that not less than 75 percent of solid waste generated be source-reduced, recycled, or composted.

The Proposed Project will be operating a new recycled water reservoir water tank to be serviced by the existing employees maintaining the existing water facility tank adjacent to the Project site. The Project site would not result in a significant increase in employees that would create an increase of solid wastes generated.

Construction of the Proposed Project would result in generation of construction wastes. The construction activities will comply with the City’s requirements for Construction and Demolition Recycling Requirements (Section 13.66.040 of the Municipal Code) wh ich outlines the requirements for loading and collection areas, targeted materials for recycling, separation of materials, and compliance with the General Plan. There is no increase in long-term waste generation given that the Project site is not introducing new populations and will be serviced by existing employees of the City.

Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in the generation of solid wastes in excess of state or local standards and would not result in impairing solid waste reduction goals. Impacts , therefore, would be less than significant.
e) Would the project c omply with federal, state, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste?
Less than Significant Impact . As discussed above, the generation of solid waste would be limited during construction and will comply with the Federal, State, and local requirements , including the City’s Construction and Demolition Requirements for managing solid waste, CalGreen Code, and the Chapter 13.64 Integrated Solid Waste Management ordinance. Impacts would be less than significant.

4.20.1 Impact Analysis
a) Would the project impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? Less than Significant Impact. The Proposed Project would not interfere with an evacuation or emergency plan as discussed in Section 4.9 Hazards and Hazardous Materials. In addition, CALFIRE has Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
290 of 932
WWTP Recycled Water Reservoir CEQA Project
City of Redlands, CA
Chambers Group, Inc. 61
21532
prepared Fire Hazard Severity Zone Maps for the State, and the Project site is in a Non-Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (CALFIRE 2023). The nearest Ver y High Fire Hazard Severity Zone is located approximately 3 miles south from the Project site in an open space area adjacent to the San Timoteo Wash (CALFIRE 2023). While the Project site is not located within a fire hazard zone, the open spaces to the north of the Project site could create an environment where wildland fires could occur especially during dry and high wind seasons. The Proposed Project will conform to City guidelines and regulations for new development to minimize fire hazard as outlined in the General Plan (Fire Hazards Policies) (City 2017). These requirements include but are not limited to, using appropriate building material and design features, siting and designing development to avoid hazardous locations, incorporate fuel modification and brush clearances, and coordination with the Redlands Fire Department and other fire prevention ag encies to review all applications for development.

Conformance with these guidelines would result in less than significant impacts. b) Would the project, due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors, exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project occupants to pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire?
Less than Significant Impact. As discussed above, the Proposed Project site is not located within, nor adjacent to, a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone of state or local responsibility (CALFIRE 2023). In addition, the Project site is in a flat, developed area with no slopes that would exacerbate fire risks.

While the Project site is not located within a fire hazard zone, the open spaces to the north of the Project Site could create an environment where wildland fires could occur especially during dry and high wind seasons. The Proposed Project will conform to City guidelines and regulations for new development to minimize fire hazard as outlined in the General Plan (Fire Hazards Principles and Actions). These requirements include, but are not limited to, using appropriate building material and design features, siting and designing development to avoid hazardous locations, incorporating fuel modification and brush clearances, and coordination with the Redlands Fire Department and other fire prevention agencies to review all applications for development. Conforma nce with these guidelines would result in less than significant impacts. c) Would the project require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines, or other utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk or that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment? No Impact. As noted in Section a) and b), the Proposed Project is not located in an area deemed at a risk of wildfire. However, open spaces could create an environment where wildland fires could occur.

The existing and proposed water infrastructure tanks at the WWTP would serve as emergency water sources, thus installation of additional infrastructure that would exacerbate fire risks would not be necessary under the Proposed Project. No impact would occur. d) Would the project expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoff, post-fire slope instability or drainage changes? Less than Significant Impact. The Proposed Project site is not in an area prone to wildfire or near any water bodies that could cause slope instability or drainage changes. However, as discussed in Section a) and b), the open space north of the Project site could create an environment where wildfires could occur especially during dry and high wind seasons. The Proposed Project shall comply with City guidelines and regulations for new developments to minimize fire hazards (General Plan, Fire Hazards Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

will cause substantial adverse effects on human
beings, either directly or indirectly?

4.21.1 Impact Analysis
a) Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? Less than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated. As discussed in Section 4.4, the Proposed Project does not have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment or adversely impact sensitive biological resources. The Project site is a disturbed, vacant lot with minimal vegetation, and no suitable habitat is present. It has been previously used as a worksite for the WWTP, with aerial imagery confirming signs of disturbance such as tire marks, grading, and a flat surface.

While the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub habitat - which supports special -status species like Slender-horned spineflower, Santa Ana River woollystar, and California gnatcatcher - is located between the Santa Ana River and the Project site, the Project itself does not directly impact this habitat. Additionally, an existing water facility reservoir provides a buffer between the Project site and the sensitive habitat, eliminating the need for additional protective measures.

The Project will not impact riparian habitat, wetlands, or wildlife corridors. It is located 0.20 miles from the Santa Ana River, a state -protected wetland, but no direct encroachment, hydrological alteration, or pollutant discharge is anticipated. BMPs wi ll be implemented during construction to Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

prevent sediment transport and water quality degradation, ensuring compliance with local and state water quality regulations.

The Project site is outside of any designated critical habitats and does not conflict with any local, regional, or state conservation plans. Additionally, no tree removal is required, and the Project aligns with the City’s General Plan policies on habitat conservation and biological resource protection.

As discussed in Section 4.7, the Project site contains soils that are considered highly paleontologically sensitive. Regarding historical resources, as discussed in Section 4.5, the CHRIS data system search results indicated the Project site does not contain important examples of major periods in California’s history, thus no mitigation measures for this issue are necessary. Regarding archeological resources, the analysis in Section 4.5 determined that the Project site is in an archeologically sensitive area, thus there is a likelihood of discovery of an archeological resource during grading and excavation of the Project site.

Based on Tribal Consultation discussed in Section 4.18, mitigation measures have been incorporated to address potential impacts to tribal cultural resources.

Thus, implementation of mitigation measures MM PAL-1, MM PAL-2, CUL-1, CUL-2, CUL-3, CUL-4, and TCR-1 through TCR-8 would reduce impacts to less than significant. b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effec ts of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects?)
Less than Significant Impacts . Impacts associated with the Proposed Project would generally be associated with short-term construction activities as operations of the new water reservoir would be passive and not require an increase in staff. According to the City’s Planning Division Major Project List 2025, updated in September 2023, the only listed project near the Proposed Project is the Marriott Springhill Suites located on Lugonia Ave. between Nevada St. and Alabama St (City 2025b). However, this project has already been completed, thus there will be no cumulatively considerable impacts associated with construction.

Besides the Marriot Springhill Suites project, t here are no listed projects that are occurring on or adjacent to the Project site on Nevada Street, Palmetto Avenue, Pioneer Avenue, San Bernardino Avenue, Alabama Street, or California Street . Cumulative impacts would be considered less than significant.
c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
Less than Significant Impact . Substantial adverse effects on human beings directly or indirectly are primarily resulting from impacts on air quality, geology and soil s, greenhouse gas emissions, hazardous materials, land use, noise, and wildfire. Out of these impact categories, there is one impact associated with geology and soils that would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated (MM PAL-1 and MM PAL-2), due to the Project site’s high paleontological sensitivity (see Section 4.7).

In addition, impacts regarding paleontological resources do not result in substantial adverse effects on human beings. As analyzed in this document, all other impacts relating to substantial adverse effects on human beings have been determined to be less than significant as the Proposed Project’s Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
Public Resources Code, Section 21081.6 (Assembly Bill 3180) requires that mitigation measures identified in environmental review documents prepared in accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) are implemented after a project is approved. Therefore, this Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) has been prepared to ensure compliance with the adopted mitigation measures during the demolition and construction phases of the WWTP Recycled Water Reservoir CEQA Project (Proposed Project).

The City of Redlands is the agency responsible for implementation of the mitigation measures identified in the MND. This MMRP provides the City of Redlands with a convenient mechanism for quickly reviewing all the mitigation measures including the ability to focus on select information such as timing. The MMRP includes the following information for each mitigation measure:
▪ The phase of the project during which the required mitigation measure must be implemented; ▪ The phase of the project during which the required mitigation measure must be monitored; and ▪ The enforcement agency.

The MMRP includes a checklist to be used during the mitigation monitoring period. The checklist will verify the name of the monitor, the date of the monitoring activity, and any related remarks for each mitigation measure.

City Council Meeting I. 6.

DATE: 11/18/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Approve First Amendment to the Agreement with Coffman Associates, Inc. extending the agreement term for the Wildlife Hazard Assessment and Wildlife Hazard Management Plan at Redlands Municipal Airport (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 the First Amendment to the Agreement with Coffman Associates, Inc. to extend the term of the agreement to August 30, 2026.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the First Amendment to the Agreement with Coffman Associates, Inc. to extend the term of the existing professional services agreement for the Wildlife Hazard Assessment and Wildlife Hazard Management Plan at the Redlands Municipal Airport.

DISCUSSION:

On January 17, 2023, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement and Single Source Purchase Order with Coffman Associates, Inc. in the amount of $98,650 to conduct a Wildlife Hazard Assessment and prepare a Wildlife Hazard Management Plan for the Redlands Municipal Airport. The project is funded through a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and is essential to ensuring safe airport operations by addressing the growing presence of wildlife near the airfield. Coffman Associates possesses extensive knowledge of Redlands Municipal Airport operations and previously developed the City’s Airport Land Use Plan, making them uniquely qualified for this work.

The Wildlife Hazard Assessment portion of the project has now been completed Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
307 of 932
in coordination with airport staff and FAA representatives. The next phase involves the development of the Wildlife Hazard Management Plan, which will outline strategies, policies, and procedures to mitigate identified risks and maintain compliance with FAA safety standards. The proposed First Amendment seeks to extend the term of the agreement to August 30, 2026, providing sufficient time to finalize the management plan, conduct additional stakeholder coordination, and secure FAA approval. This revised timeline also aligns the completion of the consultant’s work with the term of the FAA grant, ensuring all project activities and reimbursements remain eligible and in full compliance with federal funding requirements. Furthermore, this amendment does not add any cost to the agreement and serves solely to extend the project duration to complete the remaining deliverables consistent with the FAA grant schedule and reporting deadlines.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may choose not to approve the First Amendment and provide staff with alternative direction.

STRATEGIC PLAN:

Not applicable.

For purposes of this paragraph, the providing of the services at an airport by a single fixed-based operator shall not be construed as an exclusive right if both of the following apply:
a. It would be unreasonably costly, burdensome, or impractical for more than one fixed-based operator to provide such services, and
b. If allowing more than one fixed-based operator to provide such services would require the reduction of space leased pursuant to an existing agreement between such single fixed-based operator and such airport. It further agrees that it will not, either directly or indirectly, grant or permit any person, firm, or corporation, the exclusive right at the airport to conduct any aeronautical activities, including, but not limited to charter flights, pilot training, aircraft rental and sightseeing, aerial photography, crop dusting, aerial advertising and surveying, air carrier operations, aircraft sales and services, sale of aviation petroleum products whether or not conducted in conjunction with other aeronautical activity, repair and maintenance of aircraft, sale of aircraft parts, and any other activities which because of their direct relationship to the operation of aircraft can be regarded as an aeronautical activity, and that it will terminate any exclusive right to conduct an aeronautical activity now existing at such an airport before the grant of any assistance under Title 49, United States Code.

24. Fee and Rental Structure.

It will maintain a fee and rental structure for the facilities and services at the airport which will make the airport as self-sustaining as possible under the circumstances existing at the particular airport, taking into account such factors as the volume of traffic and economy of collection. No part of the Federal share of an airport development, airport planning or noise compatibility project for which a Grant is made under Title 49, United States Code, the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982, the Federal Airport Act or the Airport and Airway Development Act of 1970 shall be included in the rate basis in establishing fees, rates, and charges for users of that airport.

The following exceptions apply to this paragraph:

1. If covenants or assurances in debt obligations issued before September 3, 1982, by the owner or operator of the airport, or provisions enacted before September 3, 1982, in governing statutes controlling the owner or operator's financing, provide for the use of the Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
333 of 932
revenues from any of the airport owner or operator's facilities, including the airport, to support not only the airport but also the airport owner or operator's general debt obligations or other facilities, then this limitation on the use of all revenues generated by the airport (and, in the case of a public airport, local taxes on aviation fuel) shall not apply.

2. If the Secretary approves the sale of a privately owned airport to a public sponsor and provides funding for any portion of the public sponsor’s acquisition of land, this limitation on the use of all revenues generated by the sale shall not apply to certain proceeds from the sale. This is conditioned on repayment to the Secretary by the private owner of an amount equal to the remaining unamortized portion (amortized over a 20-year period) of any airport improvement grant made to the private owner for any purpose other than land acquisition on or after October 1, 1996, plus an amount equal to the federal share of the current fair market value of any land acquired with an airport improvement grant made to that airport on or after October 1, 1996.

3. Certain revenue derived from or generated by mineral extraction, production, lease, or other means at a general aviation airport (as defined at 49 U.S.C. § 47102), if the FAA determines the airport sponsor meets the requirements set forth in Section 813 of Public Law 112-95
b. As part of the annual audit required under the Single Audit Act of 1984, the sponsor will direct that the audit will review, and the resulting audit report will provide an opinion concerning, the use of airport revenue and taxes in paragraph (a), and indicating whether funds paid or transferred to the owner or operator are paid or transferred in a manner consistent with Title 49, United States Code and any other applicable provision of law, including any regulation promulgated by the Secretary or Administrator.
c. Any civil penalties or other sanctions will be imposed for violation of this assurance in accordance with the provisions of 49 U.S.C. § 47107.

It will make available all of the facilities of the airport developed with Federal financial assistance and all those usable for landing and takeoff of aircraft to the United States for use by Government aircraft in common with other aircraft at all times without charge, except, if the use by Government aircraft is substantial, charge may be made for a reasonable share, proportional to such use, for the cost of operating and maintaining the facilities used. Unless otherwise determined by the Secretary, or otherwise agreed to by the sponsor and the using agency, substantial use of an airport by Government aircraft will be considered to exist when operations of such aircraft are in excess of those which, in the opinion of the Secretary, would unduly interfere with use of the landing areas by other authorized aircraft, or during any calendar month that:
a. Five (5) or more Government aircraft are regularly based at the airport or on land adjacent thereto; or
b. The total number of movements (counting each landing as a movement) of Government aircraft is 300 or more, or the gross accumulative weight of Government aircraft using the airport (the total movement of Government aircraft multiplied by gross weights of such aircraft) is in excess of five million pounds.

28. Land for Federal Facilities.

It will furnish without cost to the Federal Government for use in connection with any air traffic control or air navigation activities, or weather-reporting and communication activities related to air traffic control, any areas of land or water, or estate therein as the Secretary considers necessary or desirable for construction, operation, and maintenance at Federal expense of space or facilities for such purposes.

BIT A

SCOPE OF

SERVICES

GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In order to reduce the potential of wildlife strikes with aircraft, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5200‐38, Protocol for the Conduct and Revie w of Wildlife Hazard Site Visits, Wildlife Hazard Assessments, and Wildlife Hazard Management Plans , which provides guidance to public use airports about certain land uses that potentially attract hazardous wildlife.

The purpose of this scope of work is t o develop a plan to minimize the potential of wildlife strikes with aircraft at Redlands Municipal Airport (the Airport). This Scope of Services is presented in two phases, or steps. The first step in addressing wildlife concerns is to conduct a Wildlife Hazard Assessment (WHA) for the Airport. The WHA, conducted by a Qualified Airport Wildlife Biologist (QAWB), provides the scientific basis for the development, implementation, and refinement of the second step, which is the preparation of the Wildlife Hazard Management Plan (WHMP). The preparation of a WHA is presented in Element 1, and the preparation of the WHMP is presented in Element 2.

ELEMENT 1 ‐ PREPARATION OF A WILDLIFE HAZARD ASSESSMENT Task 1.1 ‐ Kick‐Off Meeting and Initial Site Assessment

An Initial Assessment meeting is to be conducted with airport staff immediately following execution of a contract. The focus of the meeting will be to discuss airp ort management activities, and past wildlife incursions. After the meeting, biologists will tour the airport and surrounding areas to evaluate wildlife attractants on the airport and a five‐mile buffer around the approach/departure airspace. High‐ resoluti on aerial pho tography will be utilized to facilitate the attractant review. During the site assessment, WHA survey points will be established based on the locations of identified attractants and airport operations. Once the survey points are identified, the first round of wildlife surveys, will be completed and finalize the methods specific to the WHA.

The WHA QAWB may need to obtain an Airport Operations Area (AOA) Access Badge to attain driving clearance on the AOA. As part of the initial site visit, it is assumed th at arrangements will be made for airport access, driving clearance on airport property, and escorts for any movement areas until the airport wildlife biologist has received the necessary security authorization and airfield driving/familiarity training at the Airport.

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
354 of 932
8 I:\cmo\Agreements\Coffman Wildlife Hazard Assesment-FY22-0098.doc-jm

If Covid‐19 safety protocols preclude airport staff from meeting in‐person to conduct the initial assessment meeting, the meeting will be conducted remotely over Zoom. Conducting the meeting remotely will not eliminate the need to tour the airport and conduct the initial survey. The biologist will conduct the initial site survey following the meeting as discussed above. Provided the biologist is granted permission to drive in the AOA, all surveys can be conducted in absence of airport staff.

Responsibilities:

Consultant: The project team will review existing information on wildlife hazard issues, attend the kick‐off meeting, take necessary secur ity training, conduct a site visit, collect necessary data, and select survey points.

Sponsor: Provide Consultant with necessary security training, airport tour, airport access, data, and provide kick‐off meeting location.

Product: Initial Assessment and kick‐off meeting.

Task 1.2 ‐ Identification of Attractants

Wildlife are attracted to areas that provide food, water, and shelte r. This task will use high‐resolution aerial photography to help identify wildlife attractants, identify attractants within the AOA, and within a five‐mile buffer around the approach/departure airspace, as recommended by the FAA. Furthermore, this task will identify existing land uses or proposed land uses that are incompatible with safe airport operations, a s stated in AC 150/5200‐33C, within 10,000 feet of the airport and within the five‐mile buffer.

Responsibilities:

Consultant: Identify wildlife attra ctants on the Airport, within 10,000 feet of the Airport, and within the five‐mile buffer using aerial photography and investigating hazardous attractants and incompatible land uses to explain wildlife movements.

Sponsor: Review.

Product: Wildlife attractants analysis.

Task 1.3 ‐ Wildlife Hazard Assessment Methods

A QAWB will implement survey methods pursuant to 14 CFR 139.337(c) and AC 150/5200‐38. The QAWB will collect data to address the following components in the WHA:
1) analysis of events or circumstances prompting the WHA; 2) identification of attractants; 3) wildlife surveys; 4) description of hazards to air carrier operations; and 5) recommend actions for reducing identified wildlife hazards.

To analyze the events that triggered the WHA, data from the FAA Wildlife Strike Data Base, the previous WHA, the current WHMP, and other airport records (if available) will be reviewed. The records review will focus on identifying trends in incident circumstances, past observations, and current management actions. Utilizing field surveys, aerial ima gery, and AC 150/5200‐33C as guides, wildlife attractants will be identified on and around the airport.

Existing land uses in perimeters A, B, and C that are incompatible with safe airport operations will be ide ntified. Identification of wildlife attractan ts will begin during the initial site visit and will continue throughout the survey period.

As recommended by the FAA, wildlife surveys will be conducted at the airport at least two times a month for 12 consecutive months. Each survey will consist of observing all on‐airport points at varying times of day. Off‐airport points will be surveyed at least quarterly. The survey schedule will focus on capturing wildlife movements in the morning, afternoon, and evening hours. This will allow the surveyor to assess the potential wildlife hazards in varying conditions throughout the seasons. As recommended by FAA, modified point‐counts for all wildlife, but especially birds, will be conducted during each survey. The biologist will survey each of the predetermined survey points for three to five minutes to identify wildlife use within the area. Modified point‐count data forms will be completed with an emphasis on observed activity (e.g., flight height above ground level, direction from observer, number of runway crossings, relation to aircraft movement areas, etc.). The biologist will also collect data on general observations as they travel between survey points. General observations may include large mammal tracking surveys, small mammal burrow surveys, notable avi an or large mammal movements, or facilities inspections.

In addition to the point‐count surveys, spotlight surveys will be conducted and camera stations will be established periodically throughout the year to determine nocturnal animal activity on the air port property. If evidence of small mammal use of the airfield is observed, small mammal trapping (up to 100 adjusted trap nights) will be conducted to evaluate the prey base for larger birds and mammals on the airport property. The small mammal trapping surveys will utilize Sherman live traps. Our proposed survey methodology will allow us to identify wildlife species, numbers, location, movements, and daily and seasonal occurrences at the Airport. All survey data will be processed in a digital database for easy query and analysis. If requested, the database can be provided to the airport for future use.

Responsibilities:

Consultant: Conduct monthly wildlife and bird surveys for 12 consecutive months to Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

An Initial Assessment Report will be written after the in itial site assessment meeting and survey; the report will include the reason for the WHA, a brief description of the preliminary observations at the airport, and established survey methods and schedule.

Three quarterly reports with be prepared during the s urvey period. Each quarterly report will update airport staff on the survey efforts and findings conducted during the previous three months.

Once all surveys are complete, the data analyzed and prepare a WHA report. The report will evaluate the events that triggered the WHA by describing the airport and summarizing the strike data. The results of the surveys will include an identification of wildlife species observed by their numbers, locations, local movements, and daily and seasonal occurrences in the study area. Attractants on and near the airport will be identified. The WHA Report will describe the identified wildlife hazards to air carrier operations and recommend actions for reducing these wildlife hazards. If federally listed wildlife species are obse rved, the potential ramifications associated with managing the Federal Endangered Species Act listed species will be assessed.

The draft WHA Report will be prepared and disseminated to airport staff for review and comment. Comments on the draft WHA Report will be incorporated and a final WHA will be prepared, which will be ready for the airport’s submittal to the FAA for approval.

DISCUSSION:

The Facilities and Community Services Department, Solid Waste Division, operates a landfill located on Nevada Street, adjacent to the Santa Ana River wash. The landfill is utilized exclusively for refuse collected within the city limits and is not open to the public. The landfill is regulated by a variety of state entities that permit and monitor the daily operations of the site. The Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requires annual water quality monitoring and reporting, which is facilitated by outside contractual service. The proposed consultant will play a lead role in assuring compliance with all water quality regulations pertaining to the City’s operation and operating permit for the landfill.

City staff issued a request for proposal (RFP) in accordance with the City’s procurement policy. A total of one firm responded.

Geo-Logic
Associates, Inc.

X X
Geo-Logic Associates, Inc., is deemed to be the most qualified firm based on their demonstrated competence and qualifications necessary for the satisfactory performance of the services required, and the cost of such services. Geo-Logic Associates, Inc., will provide professional consulting services for sampling, data validations, database management, performance monitoring, hydrogeologic support, technical and statistical analysis, and reporting services. Additional tasks may also include more technical services for the City's California Street Landfill for the next three years.

Staff rated the proposal and is recommending that City Council approve the agreement with Geo-Logic Associates, Inc., in a total amount not-to-exceed one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000) for a total of three years.

The proposed action is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act’s (CEQA) guidelines pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) as the approval of the agreement would be covered by the general rule common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment and there is negligible expansion of existing facilities.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

Monitoring Support. Consultant will collect the required samples from the designated sampling locations and submit samples to the City -selected, State certified laboratory for analysis.

Leachate samples will be collected and delivered to the laboratory by staff or consultant.

Task 1: Quarterly Groundwater Monitoring Reports. Consultant will perform all water quality sampling as required. During all monitoring reporting periods, consultant will review field notes and laboratory data in a timely fashion so that data review is completed quickly and any required RWQCB notification meets the deadlines established in Order No. R8-2004-0008 including amendments stipulated in Order No. R8-2008-0094. The data review will include:
• Providing technical and regulatory expertise to City staff. • Review of all field notes to verify that proper sampling techniques were utilized. • A thorough data quality check to verify that holding times, required analyses, reporting limits and laboratory precision requirements have been met. • Updating water level and groundwater quality databases. • Performance of a thorough quality control check on all data to verify that only correct information is input into the databases.

All sample analyses will be checked against sample collection dates to verify that holding times were met. Analytical results will also be checked to verify that all required analyses have been performed and that laboratory quality assurance results were within acceptable limits. Any identified problems will be detailed in the quarterly reports.

The procedure for laboratory data entry includes manual transfer of data into the existing database. Water level information and field data will also be manually input. All data entered into the database will be checked to ensure that the database is accurate. Laboratory reporting limits, BPO’s, and maximum concentration levels will be highlighted with bold font so that the reader can easily discern potential problems.

Statistical analysis of the water quality data will be performed by Consultant. In addition to the statistical analysis of metals surrogates and selected general minerals, selected volatile organic compounds detected at the landfill since September 1998, will be statistically analyzed to establish concentration limits equal to background concentrations during this portion of an extended evaluation monitoring period. VOC statistical analyses will be performed as data quantity and quality permit for each compound of concern, on a per -well basis, using intra -well methods as well as background- to-compliance comparisons. Charts and tables will be used to illustrate VOC statistical findings.

The quarterly groundwater monitoring reports will include the following information:
• A transmittal letter containing an abbreviated summary, including discussions on violations and any actions taken or planned.
• An executive summary of current monitoring results.
• A discussion of groundwater occurrence and movement, including hydrographs for each well, a groundwater elevation contour map, and groundwater gradient calculation.

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
387 of 932
• A discussion of groundwater quality, including field and laboratory methods, statistical methodology and results, tabulated analytical results, copies of laboratory reports and chain of custody forms, copies of field forms, and graphs of constituents detected at concentrations exceeding intra-well statistical variances. • Sludge chemical analyses.
• Conclusions, and as needed, recommendations.
• All data entered into the database will be checked to ensure that the database is accurate.

Consultants shall provide the City with an executive summary of the quarterly reports before the 15 th day of each month following a quarterly reporting period for inclusion into the City’s quarterly report to the LEA as required by permit.

Task 2: Annual Groundwater Monitoring Reports. The annual groundwater monitoring reports will be prepared in combination with the yearly first quarter reports (January- March; report due April 30). In addition to the requirements listed in Task 1, the following items will be included in the annual reports:
• Groundwater monitoring well data summaries. Including tabular and graphical summaries of groundwater levels and sampling results for all annual data, graphical presentation of groundwater constituents that equaled or exceeded BPOs or maximum concentration levels during any quarter if the monitoring period, and summary table of vadose zone sample results.
• An annual summary, discussion and recommendations regarding the detection of VOCs, and any statistical background concentration limits for VOCs which were analyzed within the constraints of available data quality and quantity. • A discussion of groundwater quality at the CSL, a discussion of vadose zone quality and potential impacts to groundwater quality, and updated information relating to the groundwater monitoring systems and hydro-geology of the CSL.

Task 3: Leachate Sampling and Reporting. A sample of the leachate will be collected and analyzed for all EPA Appendix II constituents in October of each year. If compounds are detected in the October leachate sample, a retest sample will be collected the following April.

The retest sample will be tested only for the compounds that were detected for the first time in the October sample. The results of these analyses will be submitted in the appropriate quarterly report (fourth quarter for the October sample, second quarter for the April sample).

Task 4: Leachate (LCRS) Phase Two Annual Performance Monitoring System Testing.

The Phase Two performance monitoring system will be tested annually in accordance with the CSL Leachate Management Plan, Title 27 and the CSL Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs).

The annual test shall be performed no later than October 31 of each year or a date agreed upon by the RWQCB. A LCRS annual performance monitoring system test report form is required and is provided in the CSL’s Leachate Management Plan for the Consultant. A copy of the performance monitoring test report shall be provided to the RWQCB in accordance with the WDR monitoring and reporting program for the CSL reference in Section 3.6 of the Leachate Management Plan.

Task 5: Leachate (LCRS) Regulatory Compliance Dye Test. To meet regulatory compliance at the California Street Landfill, California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 27, Section 20340 (d), and the CSL WDRs require that a landfill LCRS dye test be performed annually to demonstrate that the LCRS functions properly. Per the CSL Leachate Management Plan (LMP), annual testing of the Phase II LCRS is required by October 31 of each year to verify that liquid in the system drains to the collection sump, that liquid head over the primary line is less than 12 inches, and that the transducers are functioning properly. Consultant will perform all activities needed to perform the annual LCRS sump dye test including, but not limited to, ordering and installing leachate level transducers and flow meters, troubleshooting equipment, several trips to the field to confirm operation of equipment, communication with City staff, and project logistical support.

Task 6: Condensate (CCRS) Annual Sampling and Report Preparation. In accordance with the Condensate Management Plan, condensate from all condensate and collection recovery system (CCRS) will be sampled and analyzed no later than October 31 of each year. The samples will be analyzed for constituents listed in Appendix A. The analytical results of the condensate sampling and analysis performed in item 2 above will be reported to the RWQCB in the fourth quarter report due no later than January 31 of the following calendar year.

Task 7: Database Management. Each quarter, the existing database will be reviewed and edited such that only data relevant to the current groundwater movement, quality and hydrogeologic character is included for statistical analysis. A separate data base will also be maintained and updated as needed for historical trends.

Task 8: Landfill Expansion Support. Consultant will provide continued technical support for landfill related to cell construction and expansion in the event that additional phases are added during this agreement period. This task also includes project management, field support and all required witnessing, supervision, documentation, and reporting for the decommissioning or relocation of water quality monitoring wells, as needed.

Task 9: Other Tasks. Consultant will provide the City with general consulting services including all miscellaneous requests and technical support for all unforeseeable events related to groundwater and surface water quality and protection at the CSL.

In order to meet the City’s needs, and at the City’s request, Consultant will answer any questions or issues the City, regulators, or general public may have regarding groundwater and vadose zone quality at the landfill.

Deliverables. Deliverables will consist of formal memorandums, letter reports, and faxed information to be provided to City staff on a time and materials basis upon request. One draft copy of each technical report will be submitted to the City’s Facilities and Community services Department Director for review. After incorporation of the City’s comments, two bound copies of the final reports and one digital report will be submitted for the City’s use and distribution. In the case of quarterly and annual groundwater monitoring reports, two bound complete hard copies will be provided to the City. One hard bound copy of the final report and digital file will be submitted to the State Water Resources Control Board’s database for each Quarterly and Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

DISCUSSION:

In November 2019, the City Council approved a Facility Use Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Boys and Girls Club of Redlands (“BGCR”) for use of the Joe R Gonzales Community Center Gymnasium (“Gym”) located at 111 W.

Lugonia Avenue. BGCR has now requested to enter into a new Facility Use Agreement for continued use of the Gym for its day camp programs, along with a waiver of associated fees to support the program’s goals. The requested use does not conflict with any existing scheduled classes or programs. With approval of the Agreement, the City and BGCR will continue their partnership to provide recreational programming for youth participating in BGCR’s day camps.

The Agreement aligns with the City's Recreation Division’s goals of providing positive opportunities for youth ages 4 through 11 by promoting healthy physical activity and access to nutritional meals. This proposed Agreement represents a new term between the City and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Redlands-Riverside. A copy of the Agreement is attached for the City Council’s consideration. The terms of the agreement are for three years and will allow for the use of the gym during day camp operations (typically from 2pm–4pm during non-school periods such as summer, spring break, etc.) when not in use for other programs or classes.

Additionally, the approval of this Facility Use Agreement is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), which applies to the leasing of existing City facilities. The Agreement authorizes use of an existing facility and does not involve an expansion of the facility’s current or previous use.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may deny the approval of the Agreement.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Presentation of the 2025 National Community Survey (NCS) Results (Assistant City Manager McConnell)
MOTION:

If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:

I move to receive and file the presentation on the results of the 2025 National Community Survey (NCS) conducted by Policy Confluence, Inc. dba Polco.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council receive and file a presentation on the results of the 2025 National Community Survey (NCS) conducted by Policy Confluence, Inc. dba Polco.

DISCUSSION:

In July 2021, as part of a multifaceted approach towards the development of a strategic vision for Redlands, the City Manager's Office contracted with Policy Confluence, Inc. dba Polco to conduct a community-wide survey. The survey instrument, known as the National Community Survey (NCS), includes standard questions for measuring resident satisfaction levels and perceptions about the quality of local government services and a half page of customized questions regarding specific local issues. The standardized portions of the NCS allow Polco to provide benchmark comparisons to any of the hundreds of communities that have conducted the survey. The NCS is the only resident survey tool endorsed by the International City/County Management Association (ICMA) and the National League of Cities. The results of the 2021 NCS were presented to the City Council in November 2021. Each year since then, the NCS instrument has been distributed to a randomly selected sample of Redlands residents reflective of the City's population and demographics. The results have been Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
407 of 932
reflective of the City's population and demographics. The results have been presented to the City Council and made available to the public following each survey period.

In order to effectively gauge Redlands residents' continued satisfaction with City services, in August 2025, the City released the 2025 NCS. During the months of August, September and early October, Polco collected and compiled the results into the report which will be presented to the City Council and the public this evening. The report will highlight historical trends since 2021, noting areas where the City receives positive feedback from Redlands residents, while also identifying areas where City services can improve.

About The NCS™
The National Community Survey™ (The NCS™) report is about the “livability” of Redlands. A livable community is a place that is not simply habitable, but that is desirable. It is not only where people do live, but where they want to live. The survey was developed by the experts from National Research Center at Polco.

Great communities are partnerships of the government, private sector, community-based organizations and residents, all geographically connected. The NCS captures residents’ opinions considering ten central facets of a community:
• Economy
• Mobility
• Community Design
• Utilities
• Safety
• Natural Environment
• Parks and Recreation
• Health and Wellness
• Education, Arts, and Culture
• Inclusivity and Engagement
How the results are reported
For the most part, the percentages presented in the following tabs represent the “percent positive.” Most commonly, the percent positive is the combination of the top two most positive response options (i.e., excellent/good, very safe/somewhat safe, etc.). On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer “don’t know.” The proportion of respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in the tab “Complete data.” However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in most of the tabs. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an opinion about a specific item.

Comparisonstobenchmarks
NRC’s database of comparative resident opinion is comprised of resident perspectives gathered in surveys from over 500 communities whose residents evaluated the same kinds of topics on The National Community Survey.

The comparison evaluations are from the most recent survey completed in each community in the last five years.

NRC adds the latest results quickly upon survey completion, keeping the benchmark data fresh and relevant. The communities in the database represent a wide geographic and population range. In each tab, Redlands's results are noted as being “higher” than the benchmark, “lower” than the benchmark, or “similar” to the benchmark, meaning that the average rating given by Redlands residents is statistically similar to or different (greater or lesser) than the benchmark. Being rated as “higher” or “lower” than the benchmark means that Redlands's average rating for a particular item was more than 10 points different than the benchmark. If a rating was “much higher” or “much lower,” then Redlands's average rating was more than 20 points different when compared to the benchmark.

Trend data for Redlands represent important comparison data and should be examined for improvements or declines.¹ Deviations from stable trends over time represent opportunities for understanding how local policies, programs, or public information may have affected residents' opinions. Changes between survey years have been noted with an arrow and the percent difference. If the difference is greater than 8.3 percentage points between the 2025 and 2024 surveys, the change is statistically significant.

1. In 2020, The NCS survey was updated to include new and refreshed items. Consequently, some of the trends may be impacted due to wording modifications that could have potentially altered the meaning of the item for the respondent.

The report provides the opinions of a representative sample of 308 residents of the City of Redlands collected from August 4th, 2025 to September 16th, 2025. The margin of error around any reported percentage is 5.6% for all respondents and the response rate for the 2024 survey was 11%. Survey results were weighted so that the demographic profile of respondents was representative of the demographic profile of adults in Redlands.

AboutTheNCS™
The National Community Survey™ (The NCS™) report is about the “livability” of Redlands. A livable community is a place that is not simply habitable, but that is desirable. It is not only where people do live, but where they want to live. The survey was developed by the experts from National Research Center at Polco.

Great communities are partnerships of the government, private sector, community-based organizations and residents, all geographically connected. The NCS captures residents’ opinions considering ten central facets of a community:
• Economy
• Mobility
• Community Design
• Utilities
• Safety
• Natural Environment
• Parks and Recreation
• Health and Wellness
• Education, Arts, and Culture
• Inclusivity and Engagement
Howtheresultsarereported
For the most part, the percentages presented in the following tabs represent the “percent positive.” Most commonly, the percent positive is the combination of the top two most positive response options (i.e., excellent/good, very safe/somewhat safe, etc.). On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer “don’t know.” The proportion of respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in the tab “Complete data.” However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in most of the tabs. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an opinion about a specific item.

Comparisons to benchmarks
NRC’s database of comparative resident opinion is comprised of resident perspectives gathered in surveys from over 500 communities whose residents evaluated the same kinds of topics on The National Community Survey.

The comparison evaluations are from the most recent survey completed in each community in the last five years.

NRC adds the latest results quickly upon survey completion, keeping the benchmark data fresh and relevant. The communities in the database represent a wide geographic and population range. In each tab, Redlands's results are noted as being “higher” than the benchmark, “lower” than the benchmark, or “similar” to the benchmark, meaning that the average rating given by Redlands residents is statistically similar to or different (greater or lesser) than the benchmark. Being rated as “higher” or “lower” than the benchmark means that Redlands's average rating for a particular item was more than 10 points different than the benchmark. If a rating was “much higher” or “much lower,” then Redlands's average rating was more than 20 points different when compared to the benchmark.

The survey dat
asets were analyzed using all or some of a combination of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), R, Python and Tableau. For the most part, the percentages presented in the reports represent the “percent positive.” The percent positive is the combination of the top two most positive response options (i.e., excellent/good, very safe/somewhat safe, essential/very important, etc.), or, in the case of resident behaviors/participation, the percent positive represents the proportion of respondents indicating “yes” or participating in an activity at least once a month.

On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer “don’t know.” The proportion of respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in the tab “Complete data”. However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in the reports. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an opinion about a specific item.

StudyLimitations
All public opinion research is subject to unmeasured error. While the methodologies employed for this survey were designed to minimize this error as much as possible, these other sources of potential error should be acknowledged.Non-responseerror arises when those who were selected to participate in the survey did not do so, and may have different opinions or experiences than those who did respond.Coverageerror refers to the possibility that some respondents that should have been included in the surveyed population were not (e.g., for a general resident survey, USPS mailing lists may exclude certain types of housing units, such as multi-family buildings where mail is delivered to a common area rather than to a specific unit (though this is rare), or where mail is received at a PO box instead of the at household's physical location. Finally,recallbias occurs when respondents may not perfectly remember their experiences in the past year (such as participation in social or civic events), andsocialdesirabilitybias may cause respondents to answer in ways they think cast their responses in a more favorable light.

NRC aligns demographic labels with those used by the U.S. Census for reporting purposes, when possible. Some categories (e.g., age, race/Hispanic origin, housing type, and length of residency) are combined into smaller subgroups.

Methods
Selecting survey recipients
All households within the City of Redlands were eligible to participate in the survey. A list of all households within the zip codes serving Redlands was purchased from Polco's mailing vendor, Go-Dog Direct, based on updated listings from the United States Postal Service. Since some of the zip codes that serve the City of Redlands households may also serve addresses that lie outside of the community, the exact geographic location of each housing unit was compared to community boundaries using the most current municipal boundary file. Addresses located outside of the City of Redlands boundaries were removed from the list of potential households to survey.

Each address identified as being within city boundaries was further identified as being within one of the 5 areas.

From that list, addresses were randomly selected as survey recipients, with multi-family housing units (defined as those with a unit number) sampled at a rate of 5:3 compared to single family housing units.

Conducting the survey
The 3000 randomly selected households received mailings beginning on August 4th, 2025 and data collection for the survey remained open for 6 weeks. The first mailing was a postcard inviting the household to participate in the survey. The next mailing contained a cover letter with instructions, the survey questionnaire, and a postage-paid return envelope. All mailings included a web link to give residents the opportunity to respond to the survey online, as well as QR codes to further encourage participation. All follow-up mailings asked those who had not completed the survey to do so, and those who had already done so to refrain from completing the survey again.

The survey was available in English and Spanish. All mailings contained paragraphs in both languages instructing participants on how to complete the survey in their preferred language.

About 2% of the 3,000 mailed invitations or surveys were returned because the household address was vacant or the postal service was unable to deliver the survey as addressed. Of the remaining 2,930 households that received the invitations to participate, 308 completed the survey, providing an overall response rate of 11%. Of the 308 responses, 303 were completed in English and 5 were completed in Spanish.The response rate was calculated using AAPOR’s response rate #2 for mailed surveys of unnamed persons.² It is customary to describe the precision of estimates made from surveys by a “level of confidence” and accompanying “confidence interval” (or margin of error). A traditional level of confidence, and the one used here, is 95%. The 95% confidence interval can be any size and quantifies the sampling error or imprecision of the survey results because some residents’ opinions are relied on to estimate all residents’ opinions. The margin of error for the City of Redlands survey is no greater than plus or minus 5.6 percentage points around any given percent reported for all respondents (308 completed surveys).

In addition to the randomly selected “probability sample” of households, a link to an online open-participation survey was publicized by the City of Redlands. The open-participation survey was identical to the random sample survey, with two small updates; it asked a question to confirm the respondent was a resident of Redlands and also a question about where they heard about the survey. The open-participation survey was open to all city residents and became available on September 1st, 2025. The survey remained open for 2 weeks. The data presented in the following tabs exclude the open participation survey data, but a tab at the end provides the complete frequency of responses to questions by the open-participation respondents.

Analyzing the data
Responses from mailed surveys were entered into an electronic dataset using a “key and verify” method, where all responses are entered twice and compared to each other. Any discrepancies were resolved in comparison to the original survey form. Range checks as well as other forms of quality control were also performed. Responses from surveys completed on Polco were downloaded and merged with the mailed survey responses.

The demographics of the survey respondents were compared to those found in the 2020 Census and 2023 American Community Survey estimates for adults in the City of Redlands. The primary objective of weighting survey data is to make the survey respondents reflective of the larger population of the community. The characteristics used for weighting were age, sex, race, Hispanic origin, housing type, housing tenure, and area. No adjustments were made for design effects. Weights were calculated using an iterative, multiplicative raking model known as the ANES Weighting Algorithm.³

Key Findings
Community Strengths:

Residents express strong satisfaction with their overall quality of life. ●Most residents rated Redland’s overall image or reputation as excellent or good (85%), a figure that remained higher than national benchmark.
●Redlands as a place to raise children was positively rated by about 9 in 10 participants. ●About 9 in 10 community members would recommend living in Redlands, higher than the national benchmark. A similar proportion of residents stated that they planned to remain in the community for the next five years. ●Many community members appreciated Redlands’ availability of preventative health services and affordable quality mental health care, both of which increased significantly since 2024.

Perceptions of local government have improved since 2024. ●The City of Redlands received a 17 percentage point increase for the quality of services provided to residents, improving from 58% in 2024 to 75% in 2025.
●Confidence in City government increased since 2024, with about 5 in 10 residents offering a positive rating compared to 4 in 10 in 2024.
●Ratings for the overall direction the City is taking also increased, with over half of respondents (58%) responding positively.
●Many measures related to governance—such as being open and transparent, and treating all residents fairly—experienced significant increases, with about 5 in 10 community members expressing satisfaction.

Compared to national sentiments, community members appreciate the local economy. ●About 7 in 10 residents rated Redlands as an excellent or good place to work and to visit, both higher than the national benchmark with the rating for Redlands as a place to work increasing significantly since 2024. ●The vibrancy of the downtown/commercial area was rated positively by 81% of respondents, landing much higher than benchmark.

Focus Areas:

Aspects of the natural environment indicate room for growth. ●Air quality was rated positively by about 4 in 10 residents, much lower than the national benchmark. ●Only 34% of respondents rated water resources positively, a rating also much lower than the comparison communities.
●Though 5 in 10 community members rated open space as positive, reviews dropped significantly since 2024 (10 percentage points).

Affordability and community development continue to be challenges. ●About 4 in 10 community members rated the availability of affordable quality childcare/preschool as positive, though similar to national ratings.
●Only about half of residents positively rated employment opportunities (47%) as positive. ●Affordable quality housing received positive reviews from about 2 in 10 respondents, although similar to the national average.
●Well-planned residential and commercial growth also show room for improvement with only 47% of residents rating them positively.

Facets of livability
Every jurisdiction must balance limited resources while meeting resident needs and striving to optimize community livability. To this end, it is helpful to know what aspects of the community are most important to residents and which they perceive as being of higher or lower quality. It is especially helpful to know when a facet of livability is considered of high importance but rated as lower quality, as this should be a top priority to address.

MOTION(S):

If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:

“I move to introduce Ordinance No. 2993.”
RECOMMENDATION:

The Planning Commission reviewed the draft ordinance in a public hearing held on October 14, 2025, and unanimously recommended that the City Council approve the proposed ordinance. The Commission discussed various aspects of the development standards, and recommended maintaining the current maximum allowable size of 1,200 square feet for an accessory dwelling unit in the city's Zoning Regulations.

BACKGROUND:

The adoption of an ordinance updating the City's zoning regulation to align with current State law will implement Program No. 1.6-3 of the City’s certified 2021-2029 Housing Element. The revised regulations are intended to help facilitate more Accessory Dwelling Unit ("ADU") production by making the permitting process easier, faster, and more affordable for developers or homeowners who wish to build an ADU.

In recent years, the State Legislature has adopted numerous bills updating the land use regulations pertaining to the construction of new housing, and particularly affordable housing, in an effort to make it easier for developers to construct new housing units. State regulations pertaining to the construction of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have been updated to facilitate and expedite the construction of more housing. For example, Assembly Bill (AB) 68, AB 587, AB 671, AB 881, and Senate Bill (SB) 13 further incentivize the development of ADUs through streamlined permits, reduced setback requirements, increased allowable square footage, reduced parking requirements, and reduced fees.

State law is now very explicit about certain development standards such as structure height, required yard areas and setbacks, parking requirements, and various other development standards. State law supersedes local ordinances, therefore, when a city’s ordinance is not consistent with State law, then State law simply supersedes the local municipal codes and developers may invoke current State law. The California Department of Housing & Community Development (HCD) has been actively monitoring local agencies and have sent letters encouraging those agencies to update their municipal codes accordingly.

State law is also very clear about the wording of any architectural design Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
449 of 932
standards. State law does not permit vague terms such as “guidelines” or subjective methods of analysis and judgment. Terminology such as "be compatible with," "neighborhood character," or "materials matching or similar to" are no longer accepted by HCD. State law now requires the architectural design standards to be “objective standards,” defined as,

“Standards that involve no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and are uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the applicant or proponent and the public official prior to submittal.” (Gov. Code § 66313, subdivision (i))

Furthermore, ADUs must be reviewed and approved (or denied) ministerially, without discretionary review or a public hearing (Gov. Code § 66317(a)).

Development standards must be objective to allow for ministerial review (Gov.

Code § 66314(b)(1)). Appeals of a ministerial permit may only be filed by the applicant or property owner (in the case of a denial), and not by the general public or any neighbors (in the case of an approval).

The Planning Division maintains a webpage to summarize current State requirements and development standards, including the ADU Handbook published by the Department of Housing & Community Development (HCD), available at: ‘https://www.cityofredlands.org/post/accessory-dwelling-units-adu ’.

SUMMARY:

Staff has prepared a draft ordinance that will update Redlands Municipal Code Chapter 18.156, Article VII (Second Residential Dwelling Units), which is a part of the City’s Zoning Regulations. The overarching goal of the ordinance is to align the City’s zoning code with current State ADU law, while also incorporating local municipal requirements that are permissible under State law.

Accessory units must now be allowed in all residential zoning districts that permit single-family and multifamily dwellings, as well as mixed use districts that permit residential uses. This also includes similar districts within Specific Plans that permit residential uses and mixed uses. Government Code section 66319 states that ADUs “shall be deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is located, and shall be deemed to be a residential use that is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designations for the lot. The accessory dwelling unit shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.”

Similarly, recent updates to State law include Gov. Code § 66318 that states, “(a) A local agency may amend its zoning ordinance or general plan to incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent with the Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
450 of 932
limitations of this article.
(b) An accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.”

A legislative draft of the ordinance is attached that highlights proposed changes.

Updated sections and topics include:

1. Numbers of ADUs per lot: State law currently addresses the number(s) of ADUs that may be allowable per residential lot, based on the type of zoning (e.g., single-family lots and multifamily lots). These may include one detached ADU, one attached ADU, and one Junior ADU. Those provisions are incorporated by reference, and it is not necessary to reiterate in the ordinance.

2. Maximum floor area (Detached ADU): No change is proposed to the current maximum size of 1,200 square feet for a detached ADU (which aligns with current state law). The conversion of an existing accessory structure, such as a detached garage to an ADU, is not subject to unit size requirements (Gov. Code § 66323(a)(1)). Also, in the case of an existing garage proposed to be converted to an ADU, State law does not allow local agencies to require replacement parking for the structure being converted.

The California Department of Housing & Community Development has previously disallowed local ordinances that have attempted to limit ADU size based on parcel size. State law also overrules other local development standards that could limit the construction of ADUs, such as those pertaining to Lot Coverage, Floor-Area Ratio, building separation requirements (that exceed the Building Code’s standards), on-site landscaping or open space requirements, and any other local zoning standard that has the effect of precluding the development of an ADU.

3. Maximum floor area (Attached ADU): For an attached ADU, meaning created within the primary dwelling unit, the maximum will be 50% of the existing primary unit’s living area or 1,200 square feet, whichever is smaller. Junior ADU are limited to 500 square feet per State law and must be created within the existing walls of the primary unit. The ordinance will allow a de minimus addition of up to 150 square feet beyond the existing dimensions of the primary unit to provide for ingress/egress only, such as a staircase or landing (consistent with State law).

4. Development Standards: The proposed ordinance includes a table that clearly summarizes the development standards (height, floor area, and setbacks) for easy reference. Where State law provides for any exceptions or alternative standards (such as Gov. Code § 66323 units), State law is incorporated by reference.

5. High Fire Hazard Areas: The State will not allow local jurisdictions to prohibit the construction of new ADUs in high fire hazard severity zones. New Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

development in a High Fire Hazard area must comply with the new State codes including the 2025 Wildland-Urban Interface Code, which includes construction materials and design (e.g., requires Class A fire-resistant materials). The Fire Department’s review will address issues such as adequate water supply, landscape fuel modification, and vegetation management.

6. Parking requirements: The proposed ordinance aligns with current State law regarding the on-site parking requirements, or waivers and exemptions from the parking requirements, depending on the criteria in State law. A detached ADU generally will require one (1) parking space, unless an exemption applies, and must be on a paved surface which may be a driveway. An attached ADU or Junior ADU does not require any additional parking spaces.

7. Architectural design standards: The proposed ordinance includes objective architectural design standards for exterior materials, roof style, roof pitch, door and window openings and trim, light fixtures, ornamentation, accessory equipment, etc. The design standards must be written in such a way to preclude subjective judgment that might be exercised by staff or a Commission. Objective standards must be “uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the applicant or proponent and the public official prior to submittal.”

Note that the architectural design standards would also be applicable in the City’s historic districts and locally designated historic properties. The Historic & Scenic Preservation Commission (HSPC) reviewed the draft ordinance on April 3, 2025, and June 5, 2025. The Commission’s suggestions and clarifications have been incorporated in the final draft. Building permits for an ADU must be processed and approved ministerially (without discretionary review), and therefore, the City cannot require a Certificate of Appropriateness or any review by the HSPC as that would involve a discretionary decision.

While State law does allow for a local agency to impose standards that prevent adverse impacts on any real property that is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources (Gov. Code § 66314(b)(1), there are very few properties in Redlands that are listed on the State’s Register. In other words, that provision does not include properties that are listed only on a local historic register (which includes the eight local historic districts in Redlands plus several individually designated historic properties).

8. Rental requirements: State law currently requires a rental period of 30 days or longer, and the draft ordinance reiterates that provision of State law.

9. Substantive requirements for local ordinances: The additional requirements for the content of local ordinances adopted pursuant to Gov. Code Section 66314 is contained in the draft ordinance (including sections pertaining to changes of occupancy, utility connections, exemptions from fire sprinkler requirements, and demolition of a detached garage, among other provisions).

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The proposed code amendment is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15282 (Other Statutory Exemptions) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Section 15282(h) states, “The adoption of an ordinance regarding second units in a single-family or multifamily residential zone by a city or county to implement the provisions" of State law is exempt from environmental review. The proposed ordinance meets the intent and purpose of that exemption. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. City Council may suggest changes to the proposed draft ordinance;

2. City Council can continue the proposal and direct staff to address any further issues.

STRATEGIC PLAN:

The proposed ordinance will help implement Priority A (Quality of Life) contained in the Redlands Strategic Plan.

Strategic Objective 2 (Economic Vitality):
• Implement policies and programs to expand the City’s affordable housing opportunities.

WHEREAS, the State of California requires each city to develop a general plan establishing policies for future development. As specified in the California Government Code, the general plan must: ( i) encourage the development of a variety of housing types for all income levels; and ( ii) assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of low and moderate-income households; and

WHEREAS, the City has authority under its police power to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, by imposing land use regulations that that will provide additional housing that is affordable to all income levels that is dispersed throughout the City; and

WHEREAS, the implementation of th is ordinance will aid the City in achieving the goal of making housing availability more diverse, dispersed, and affordable; and

WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is required to update Article VII of Chapter 18.156 of the Zoning Regulations to implement Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and

WHEREAS, California Government Code
§ 66318 states: (a) a local agency may amend
its zoning ordinance or general plan to incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent with the limitations of State law; and, (b) an accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth; and

WHEREAS on or about October 3, 2025, notice of the Planning Commission’s public hearing for this proposal was caused to be published in a newspaper of general circulation by the Secretary to the Planning Commission; and

WHEREAS, the proposed Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15282 of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines; and

WHEREAS, on October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission recommended to the City Council that proposed Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 be approved; and

WHEREAS, in accordance with California Government Code § 65090, on or about
November 7, 2025, the City Clerk gave notice by publication in a newspaper of general circulation of the holding of a public hearing at which Ordinance No. 2993 would be considered by City Council; and

WHEREAS, on November 18, 2025, the City Council held a noticed public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance No. 2993.

b. Historic Properties:
i. For new structures on a designated historic property, including properties within a local historic or scenic district, it is recommended that the exterior design is sufficiently differentiated from the historic building so that the ADU is clearly distinguishable from the historic structure. This may be achieved through use of simplified exterior materials and treatments (for example, omit ornamentation, or use of plain roof fascia rather than an eave cornice, or use of undivided window panes rather than divided windows, etc.).
ii. A new accessory dwelling unit should be located on the property so that it is minimally visible (if at all) from the public right-of-way, if feasible, so that the new ADU is subordinate to the primary historic dwelling on the property. The ADU should have a lower height that the primary historic dwelling as well as a simple exterior design, omit ornamentation, and avoid decorative details. iii. Applicants may also refer to the City’s adopted Historic Architectural Design Guidelines for guidance.
c. Roof Pitch and Design:
i. Roof style and construction shall be hipped or gable (the exception is for California Government Code § 66323 units which includes all converted units, all Junior ADUs, 800 square-foot new construction detached units with four-foot setbacks, and detached units with multifamily primary dwelling structures). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal complies with Table

18.156.470(B)(1) above.

ii. Roof pitch shall be not less than 3:12 and not more than 10:12, when feasible (the exception is for California Government Code § 66323 units which includes all converted units, all Junior ADUs, 800 square-foot new construction detached units with four-foot setbacks, and detached units with multifamily primary dwelling structures). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
468 of 932
complies with Table 18.156.470(B)(1) above. It is recommended that roof pitch of the ADU should be equal to or less than (within 20% or 5 degrees, whichever is larger) the roof pitch of the primary unit, when feasible.

iii. Dormers, cupolas, turrets, towers, domes, or other projections (including chimneys) are prohibited.

iv. For properties located within a High Fire Hazard Area, the proposal uses Class A rated roofing materials and Class A rated siding materials (e.g., eaves, rooflines, fascia, rafter tails, shutters, etc.). Roof vents, gable vents, soffit vents, and other openings, if any, shall be ember resistant.
d. Ornamentation: The exterior design of the ADU shall not include unnecessary ornamentation and the following architectural details shall be prohibited, such as wrought iron features, arcades, porticos, balconets, brackets, columns, corbels, cornice, quoins, rafter tails, dormers, cupolas, finials, etc. e. For new two-story ADUs or additions, the front and street-facing side elevations shall be articulated and recessed (e.g., vertically and horizontally offset) a minimum of five feet (5’) from the first-story building façade, when feasible (the exception is for California Government Code § 66323 units which includes all converted units, all Junior ADUs, 800 square-foot new construction detached units with four-foot setbacks, and detached units with multifamily primary dwelling structures). f. Exterior light fixtures shall be a design, or shall include shielding (for the length of the bulb or light source), to prevent light trespass onto adjacent properties. Glare shall be contained within the subject property, and the fixture design or shielding must prevent light trespass onto adjacent properties that exceeds one foot-candle as measured at the property line.
g. Ground-mounted ductless condensers and heat pumps shall be permitted at ground level. Heating and cooling air handlers or ductwork shall be installed within the building envelope. “Building envelope” is defined as the outer shell of a building that separates the interior from the exterior environment. h. Visibility of HVAC Equipment: Window and roof-mounted HVAC equipment shall not be visible from a public street (not including alleys), when feasible. i. A new exterior stairway to a second floor ADU shall not be visible from a public street (not including alleys), when feasible.

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

2. Required Design Elements for Conversion of an Existing Structure to an ADU. a. Existing building elements may remain if in compliance with the applicable provisions of the California Building Standards Code, Residential Code, and Fire Code.
b. Installation or construction of new exterior design elements, features, or treatments shall conform to the requirements of subsection (B)(1) above, when feasible.”

SECTION 3. General Plan Consistency. The City Council finds that the amendment to Title 18 (Zoning Regulations) of the Redlands Municipal Code described herein is consistent with the adopted and certified 2021-2029 (6th Cycle) Housing Element of the City of Redlands 2035 General Plan, and will comply with the applicable provisions of State law.

SECTION 4. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance for any reason is held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance, and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

WHEREAS, a lack of new units affordable to very- low, low and moderate -income households within the City will have a substantially negative impact because: (1) housing will have to be built far from employment centers, which will increase commuting and nega tively impact traffic, air and noise pollution, and (2) the City and employers within the City will find it difficult to recruit and retain employees; and

WHEREAS, the State of California requires each city to develop a general plan establishing policies for future development. As specified in the California Government Code, the general plan must: ( i) encourage the development of a variety of housing types for all income levels; and ( ii) assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of low and moderate-income households; and

WHEREAS, the City has authority under its police power to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, by imposing land use regulations that that will provide additional housing that is affordable to all income levels that is dispersed throughout the City; and

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
472 of 932
WHEREAS, the implementation of th is ordinance will aid the City in achieving the goal of making housing availability more diverse, dispersed, and affordable; and

WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is required to update Article VII of Chapter 18.156 of the Zoning Regulations to implement Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and

WHEREAS, California Government Code
§ 66318 states: (a) a local agency may amend
its zoning ordinance or general plan to incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent with the limitations of State law; and, (b) an accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth; and

WHEREAS on or about October 3, 2025, notice of the Planning Commission’s public hearing for this proposal was caused to be published in a newspaper of general circulation by the Secretary to the Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, on October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission held a noticed public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has determined that the proposed Ordinance Text Amendment would be consistent with, and will implement , Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and

WHEREAS, the proposed Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15282 of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines; and

WHEREAS, on October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission recommended to the City Council that proposed Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 be approved; and

WHEREAS, in accordance with California Government Code § 65090, on or about
November 7, 2025, the City Clerk gave notice by publication in a newspaper of general circulation of the holding of a public hearing at which Ordinance No. 2993 would be considered by City Council; and

WHEREAS, on November 18, 2025, the City Council held a noticed public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance No. 2993.

b. Historic Properties:
i. For new structures on a designated historic property, including properties within a local historic or scenic district, it is recommended that the exterior design is sufficiently differentiated from the historic building so that the ADU is clearly distinguishable from the historic structure. This may be achieved through use of simplified exterior materials and treatments (for example, omit ornamentation, or use of plain roof fascia rather than an eave cornice, or use of undivided window panes rather than divided windows, etc.).
ii. A new accessory dwelling unit should be located on the property so that it is minimally visible (if at all) from the public right-of-way, if feasible, so that the new ADU is subordinate to the primary historic dwelling on the property. The ADU should have a lower height that the primary historic dwelling as well as a simple exterior design, omit ornamentation, and avoid decorative details. iii. Applicants may also refer to the City’s adopted Historic Architectural Design Guidelines for guidance.
c. Roof Pitch and Design:
i. Roof style and construction shall be hipped or gable (the exception is for California Government Code § 66323 units which includes all converted units, all Junior ADUs, 800 square-foot new construction detached units with four-foot setbacks, and detached units with multifamily primary dwelling structures). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal complies with Table

18.156.470(B)(1) above.

ii. Roof pitch shall be not less than 3:12 and not more than 10:12, when feasible (the exception is for California Government Code § 66323 units which includes all converted units, all Junior ADUs, 800 square-foot new construction detached units with four-foot setbacks, and detached units with multifamily primary dwelling structures). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
485 of 932
complies with Table 18.156.470(B)(1) above. It is recommended that roof pitch of the ADU should be equal to or less than (within 20% or 5 degrees, whichever is larger) the roof pitch of the primary unit, when feasible.

iii. Dormers, cupolas, turrets, towers, domes, or other projections (including chimneys) are prohibited.

iv. For properties located within a High Fire Hazard Area, the proposal uses Class A rated roofing materials and Class A rated siding materials (e.g., eaves, rooflines, fascia, rafter tails, shutters, etc.). Roof vents, gable vents, soffit vents, and other openings, if any, shall be ember resistant.
d. Ornamentation: The exterior design of the ADU shall not include unnecessary ornamentation and the following architectural details shall be prohibited, such as wrought iron features, arcades, porticos, balconets, brackets, columns, corbels, cornice, quoins, rafter tails, dormers, cupolas, finials, etc. e. For new two-story ADUs or additions, the front and street-facing side elevations shall be articulated and recessed (e.g., vertically and horizontally offset) a minimum of five feet (5’) from the first-story building façade, when feasible (the exception is for California Government Code § 66323 units which includes all converted units, all Junior ADUs, 800 square-foot new construction detached units with four-foot setbacks, and detached units with multifamily primary dwelling structures). f. Exterior light fixtures shall be a design, or shall include shielding (for the length of the bulb or light source), to prevent light trespass onto adjacent properties. Glare shall be contained within the subject property, and the fixture design or shielding must prevent light trespass onto adjacent properties that exceeds one foot-candle as measured at the property line.
g. Ground-mounted ductless condensers and heat pumps shall be permitted at ground level. Heating and cooling air handlers or ductwork shall be installed within the building envelope. “Building envelope” is defined as the outer shell of a building that separates the interior from the exterior environment. h. Visibility of HVAC Equipment: Window and roof-mounted HVAC equipment shall not be visible from a public street (not including alleys), when feasible. i. A new exterior stairway to a second floor ADU shall not be visible from a public street (not including alleys), when feasible.

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
486 of 932

2. Required Design Elements for Conversion of an Existing Structure to an ADU. a. Existing building elements may remain if in compliance with the applicable provisions of the California Building Standards Code, Residential Code, and Fire Code.
b. Installation or construction of new exterior design elements, features, or treatments shall conform to the requirements of subsection (B)(1) above, when feasible.”

SECTION 3. General Plan Consistency. The City Council finds that the amendment to Title 18 (Zoning Regulations) of the Redlands Municipal Code described herein is consistent with the adopted and certified 2021-2029 (6th Cycle) Housing Element of the City of Redlands 2035 General Plan, and will comply with the applicable provisions of State law.

SECTION 4. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance for any reason is held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance, and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

SECTION 5. The Mayor shall sign this ordinance and the City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this ordinance and shall cause it, or a summary of it, to be published once in the Redlands Daily Facts, a newspaper of general circulation within the City, and thereafter, this ordinance shall take effect as provided by law.

MOTION(S):

If the City Council determines that the Planning Commission's recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
"I move that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8731 and approve the residential development located at 516 Cajon Street."
RECOMMENDATION:

On October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission reviewed the project and voted 6 - 0 to adopt Resolution No. 1725 recommending approval of the project.

BACKGROUND:

The project site consists of two parcels and is currently vacant. Two single-family dwellings previously existed on the site (one house on each lot).

The homes appear on Sanborn maps between 1900 and 1908. City building permit records show that the homes at 516 and 522 Cajon Street were demolished in 1974 and 1975. City records show that the original homes were a version of the Craftsman architectural style.

The project site is within Historic District No. 3, the "Early Redlands Historic and Scenic District" (see Attachment A - Location Map). New development on vacant sites within any of the City’s Historic and Scenic Preservation districts also require approval of a Certificate of Appropriateness (which is included in the Conditions of Approval for this project). Prior to scheduling the Planning Commission meeting, the proposed design was presented to the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission for design review feedback, and the project architect significantly revised the design. The current design proposal (now a Craftsman architectural style) was reviewed by the Planning Commission and recommended for approval.

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The applicant proposes to construct four detached residential buildings, two stories high, with a total of eight (8) condominium dwelling units on a vacant

0.5-acre property. The total floor area is approximately 11,200 square-feet and features an enclosed tuck-under 2-car garage for each unit, four uncovered guest parking spaces, common and private open space areas, perimeter landscaping, and related site improvements. Each dwelling unit will provide three bedrooms plus individually designated private outdoor space. Vehicular access will be provided from the alley at the rear of the property (similar to the other residences on the block).

The required entitlements for the project include:
• Commission Review & Approval No. 972 for site plan and architectural design review;
• Tentative Tract Map No. 20792 for a condominium subdivision; and, • Conditional Use Permit No. 1201 for a condominium project.

Note that the zoning code requires the City Council to approve a Conditional Use Permit for a condominium project in conjunction with the Tentative Tract Map for condominium purposes (RMC Section 18.156.300). Therefore, the City Council will be the decision-making body for the project.

ANALYSIS
A) General Plan Policies
The subject property is within the "Office (O)" land use designation (see Attachment B – General Plan Land Use Map), which permits residential uses consistent with the underlying zoning district (A-P zone and including R-3 residential uses). The intent of the Office land use designation is to encourage the concentration and high visibility of office uses and professional activities mixed in with residential uses.The project proposes a medium density attached residential development, which is consistent with the intent of the Office land use designation, as well as consistent with the surrounding residential developments.

In addition, the proposed use is consistent with the applicable policies and actions of the General Plan, including the following:

Policy 4-P.16: Promote a variety of housing types to serve the diverse needs of the community.

Policy 4-P.6: Provide for a balance among a variety of different land uses and their distribution among the city’s neighborhoods.

Policy 4-P.9: Locate medium- and high-density development near regional Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
491 of 932
access routes, transit stations, employment centers, shopping areas, and public services.

Action 4-A.8: Promote the development of a greater variety of housing types, including single-family homes on small lots, accessory dwelling units, townhomes, lofts, live-work spaces, and senior and student housing to meet the needs of future demographics and changing family sizes.

Principle 4-P.3: Focus new development in infill areas in order to preserve open space, agriculture, and citrus groves, particularly around the edges of the city.

B) Zoning Standards
The Administrative & Professional Office (A-P) District allows for business and professional offices along with residential uses consistent with the Multiple Family Residential (R-3) District. Condominium dwellings are also conditionally permitted in the R-3 district. The project will comply with all applicable development standards for the A-P and R-3 zones, as summarized in Table 1.

C) Commission Review and Approval
Site Design: The site consists of two large parcels (approximately 136’ wide and 160’ deep) consistent with other residential lots along that segment of Cajon Street. Vehicular access to the site will be from the rear alleyway on the west side of the site (see Attachment C-1, Site Plan). The alleyway can be accessed Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
492 of 932
from both West Home Place and West Cypress Avenue. The overall site layout is four detached buildings, with each containing two attached condo units sharing a common wall. A new driveway from the alley will provide access to the garages and on-site parking. The dwelling unit front entrances are on the first floor and will face either Cajon Street, or across from the abutting attached unit, or face the common open spaces. The primary common open space area is placed at the rear of the property (southwest corner adjacent to the alley), and the remainder of the site has decorative landscape and hardscape throughout.

Architectural Design: The proposed two-story buildings will have the form, massing, and appearance as detached single-family residences. Each detached building is to contain only two units, which will limit the bulk and massing of each structure and achieves better compatibility with the surrounding residential homes along both sides of Cajon Street as well as behind the subject property along South 4th Street. The buildings will include materials, details, and features that are consistent with the Craftsman architectural style (see Attachments C-2 and C-3, Architectural Elevations). The buildings will be two stories high (or up to 26 feet) which is equal to or less than the nearby existing 2-1/2 story houses that were historically developed along Cajon Street. Each residence includes horizontal articulation or projections around the second floor, and each unit has approximately the same number of windows, doors, and a patio or balcony.

Outdoor Living Space: The applicable Multiple Family Residential (R-3) District standards require Common Open Space as well as Private Open Space. Overall, 2,800 square feet of outdoor living space is required. The project is providing 1,688 square feet of private space between all the units, and a common open space at 1,292 square feet. This combination results in a total of 2,980 square feet being provided to residents of the project.

The single Common Open Space area provides a total of 1,292 square feet (minimum of 1,000 sq. ft. required) and is designed as a recreational space located at the southwest rear corner of the lot. This area must also have a minimum dimension of 20 feet, which is provided. Amenities include playground equipment, barbecue pits, tables, and rubbish receptacles. Note that this area does not include the private patio area in front of the condominium unit that faces the west (rear) side of the lot.

Each dwelling unit must have Private Open Space. For ground floor units, the space must be a minimum size of 100 square-feet and with a minimum dimension of 8 feet. Each unit will be provided a patio or balcony that meets the design requirements (see Attachment C-2 with floor plans).

Site Landscape: The remainder of the site has other landscaping features such as planters and lawns. These spaces have a number of different trees, shrubs, perennials, and groundcover such as Brisbane Box, Crape Myrtle, Foxtail Agave, Texas Privet, Small Cape Rush, Little Rev Flax Lilly, and others. Within the front yard area, two 6” tall planter curbs sit against the majority the eastern Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
493 of 932
property line (facing Cajon Street), the landscape palette includes trees, shrubs, and groundcover.

Walls and Fencing: The project site will have perimeter concrete block wall approximately 5’0” high along the west (rear), north and south (side) property lines. Within the front yard area facing Cajon Street, a fence 3’0” high will be installed, and will include 6” high planters with trees, shrubs, and perennials. The low planter will be a physical barrier to help delineate the semi-private front yards from the public sidewalk. The rear vehicle access from the alleyway will be open, with no proposal for a gate.

Parking: A total of 20 parking spaces are required, and 20 will be provided. This consists of 16 garage spaces (a two-car garage per unit) plus four unenclosed guest spaces. This satisfies the number of parking spaces required in the R-3 district, which is two (2) spaces for every three-bedroom unit. In addition, one guest parking space for each two units (or 0.5 guest space per unit) is required for a minimum of four spaces, and four will be provided between the buildings.

Traffic: The proposed project is forecast to generate fewer than 50 vehicle trips during the A.M. and P.M. peak hours. The surrounding neighborhoods and corridor along Cajon Street have been otherwise fully developed for many decades. Therefore, the project will not significantly impact intersection level of service (“LOS”) in the vicinity, and will not conflict with any Measure ‘U’ traffic requirements.

Inclusionary Housing Requirement: The project has fewer than ten (10) dwelling units, and therefore, is exempt from the City’s inclusionary housing regulations (RMC 18.230.120(A)). The project is not required to provide any affordable units within the development nor pay an in-lieu fee.

D) Condominium Subdivision
The proposed Tentative Tract Map (Attachment D) will subdivide the existing two acres, totaling one-half (0.5) acre into 8 residential condominium units plus Lot No. 1 for the common areas. The A-P district requires a minimum lot size of 10,000 square-feet and the proposed Lot No. 1 is 21,760 square-feet, as well as exceeding the minimum lot dimensions requirements for the A-P zone (RMC Chapter 18.64). The common lot includes the on-site private parking, open space, pedestrian walkways, and landscaped buffer areas. The tentative map complies with the condominium development standards contained in RMC Chapter 18.156, Article IV (Condominiums and Condominium Conversions).

Access and Improvements: The proposed project will have vehicular access only from the alley at the rear of the property (accessible from Home Place and Cypress Avenue). The front of the property provides pedestrian access from Cajon Street. The standard Engineering conditions of approval (Attachment G) will require on-site improvements, perimeter improvements (along the Cajon Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
494 of 932
Street frontage as well as the alley), and payment of typical development impact fees. No dedications of additional street or alley right-of-way are necessary.

E) Architectural Review Criteria
RMC Section 18.12.170 provides that the Planning Commission shall review the aspects of the design based on the criteria listed in the code, and whether approval of the plan is in the best interest of the public health, safety, and general welfare. It is intended that design submittals be compatible with the character of adjacent and surrounding developments, and that they be of comparable composition, materials, textures, and colors. The proposed design meets all criteria and the Planning Commission has recommended approval, subject to additional Conditions of Approval specifying the use of only natural materials (such as wood and stone) and not faux stone, plastic, or other imitation materials on the exterior facades.

As mentioned in the Background section, the subject property is located within the Early Redlands Historic and Scenic District (Historic District No. 3).

Therefore, the final design will require subsequent approval of a Certificate of Appropriateness (by the Historic & Scenic Preservation Commission) for consideration of the final architectural design and consistency with the City’s Historic Architectural Design Guidelines. Condition of Approval No. 22 is included that will require the approval of a Certificate of Appropriateness prior to building permit issuance (although the HSPC has previously reviewed the proposed design and the applicant has made substantial revisions in response to prior feedback). Staff believes the proposal will be acceptable to the Commission.

F) Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study
Measure ‘U’ requires that a Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study be prepared for projects involving new structures larger than 5,000 square feet, and a Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study has been prepared (see Attachment F).

According to the cost/benefit model used by the City, the proposed project will result in an annual revenue totaling $11,445 and annual costs totaling $5,909.

Therefore, the annual net revenue expected from the project is anticipated to be approximately $5,537 and results in a positive cost/benefit ratio of +1.94.

Redlands Regular Meeting 11-18-25
495 of 932
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

In accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), the project qualifies for a categorical exemption from environmental review pursuant to Sections 15315 (Minor Land Divisions) and 15332 (Infill Development Projects) of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15332 pertains to infill development projects on sites that are less than five acres in size and consists of projects characterized as in-fill development meeting the following conditions:
a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations.
b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses. c) The project site has no value, as habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species.
d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality.
e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. The proposed project meets all applicable criteria, will not have any potentially significant impacts on the environment, and is eligible for exemption from environmental review.

Proposed Project: The project site, while vacant, does existing within the Early Redlands Historic and Scenic (HD No. 3) District. As a result, the proposal has been designed and guided by the standards set within the Historic Architectural Design Guidelines. The two primary standards were those for new constructions within a Historic District , along with the design standards of “Craftsman” style homes, which is the intended architectural style of this project. The project also followed standards set by the Secretary of the Interior’s National Park Service, or the “Standards and Guidelines for Preservation, Rehabilitation, Restoration & Reconstruction”. Additionally, because of the site’s location within a Historic District, the project was required to get a Certificate of Appropriateness. This permit requires the project to receive approval from the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission for its architectural design. As of this study, the proposal has been reviewed twice during two separate Design Reviews that were held during the regular HSPC meeting items. These reviews had HSPC Commissioners review the submittal item for compliance with our Historic Architectural Design Guidelines and the design standards established by the NPS. After substantial comments from the first review, the applicant revised the site and architecture to address those concerns. During the second round of review, the revised design addressed most of the concerns mentioned by the HSPC Commissioners and those in public comment.

Therefore, the review process and the architectural input from the commissioners and staff will provide heritage enhancements and preservation to the site and surrounding areas because of its conformity with the Historic Architectural Design Guidelines established by the city and the design standards established by the NPS.

4. That the proposed development is appropriate at the proposed location.

The project location for the proposed residential development is within a historical neighborhood (Historic District No. 3) and along the Cajon Street corridor. This core neighborhood in Redlands has been fully developed for several decades and includes a variety of residential uses in the surrounding neighborhoods as well as professional office uses along Cajon Street.

SECTION 6. APPROVAL OF TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 20792. Tentative Tract Map No. 20792 (for condominium purposes) is hereby approved based upon the following findings, and subject to the Conditions of Approval attached hereto as Exhibit “A,” Exhibit “B,” and Exhibit “C.”

1. That the proposed map is consistent with the general plan or any applicable specific plan, or other applicable provisions of this code.

The proposed project site is designated for Office land uses on the General Plan Land Use Map. The Office land use designation includes residential uses in conformance with definition of the Office land use designation. The existing zoning designation for all subject properties is currently Administrative and Professional Office (A-P) and the General Plan land use designation as “Office (O),” and therefore, the proposed land use will be consistent with the applicable provisions of this code.

2. That the site is physically suitable for the type of development.

The project site is physically suitable for the type of development, which consists of multiple residential buildings. The site has a flat and level topography, has been previously graded and developed for urban development, and is suitable to be developed in accordance with requirements of the applicable R-3, Multiple Family Residential Zone.

The project will not conflict with any easements for the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. Existing alley right-of-way and Cajon Street right-of-way will not be affected by the proposed project or improvements.

7. Subject to Section 66474.4 of the Subdivision Map Act, that the land is not subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California land conservation act of 1965 (commencing with section 51200 of the Government Code) and that the resulting parcels following a subdivision of the land would be too small to sustain their agricultural use.

The project site and all properties are not subject to a Williamson Act Contract.
