COMMUNICATIONS
2025 National Community Survey (NCS) Results Presentation
Public Information Officer Carl Baker introduced Grace Arneson, Senior Survey Associate with Polco, who detailed the 2025 National Community Survey (NCS) results. She discussed the method and process of collecting the survey data and Polco's benchmarking database, and offered a summary of conclusions: 1) Most residents enjoy a high quality of life in Redlands; 2) Residents value multiple aspects of the City governance in Redlands; 3) Most residents perceive Redlands as a safe community; 4) The economy is valued by residents while affordability presents ongoing concerns; 5) Residents rate the natural environment positively while identifying areas for growth; and 6) Residents rate mobility as a key community asset.
As public comment, Dennis Bell said the number of respondents (308) was hardly significant in comparison to the City's population, and he thought the survey was a waste of taxpayer money.
Council Members raised questions and offered their perspective regarding the results. Council Member Tejeda pointed out that the City's public safety units have continued to provide response times above the national average. Council Member Barich was proud of the City's efforts to address homelessness and was pleased that respondents considered the community very safe. Council Member Davis was encouraged that the survey showed an increased satisfaction with public information services, and she gave a shout-out to the work being done with the City's social media pages. Mayor Pro Tem Shaw was curious about the feedback regarding yard waste pickup, and finally, Mayor Saucedo listed four areas of significant increases in positive feedback, including the quality of city services, overall confidence in public government, government transparency, and emergency services.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Ordinance No. 2993 Accessory Dwelling Units
Mayor Saucedo declared the meeting open as a public hearing and called on City Planner Brian Foote for a report on Ordinance No. 2993 (Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370), to update the development standards and design regulations contained in Redlands Municipal Code Chapter
18.156, Article VII, pertaining to the construction of accessory dwelling units. 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. Ordinance No. 2993 will update the City's zoning regulations to align with current State law and 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.
As public comment, Jasmin Hancock, a local designer, said in her professional opinion, the ordinance was written fairly well, but she requested a revision to the language in the section concerning height restrictions, and she suggested the language defining the minimum allowable square footage be aligned with the state standard, defined as "at least 800 square feet". Bruce Laycook supported the proposed ordinance as it would stimulate housing development and increase the overall housing supply, by expanding opportunities for the construction of smaller dwelling units.
There were no written comments received. Mr. Foote responded to Council Member's questions regarding second-story additions which could impact adjacent properties. He stressed that state law obligates the City to adopt and apply only objective design standards. It was agreed that a revised ordinance incorporating Council Member comments be brought back for consideration on December 16, 2025.

Resolution No. 8731 Land Use Entitlements Cajon Street
Mayor Saucedo declared the meeting open as a public hearing and called on City Planner Brian Foote for a review of Resolution No. 8731 for approval of Tentative Tract Map No. 20792 to merge two parcels and create eight residential condominium airspace units; Conditional Use Permit No. 1201; Commission Review and Approval No. 972; and a Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study prepared for the proposed project as required by Measure "U." The development is located on two vacant parcels at 516 Cajon Street (APNs: 0173-043-15-0000 and 0173-043-16-0000) in the Administrative & Professional Office (A-P) District.
Representing the Applicant, Jonathan Tanios noted that they proactively addressed every request and incorporated necessary modifications throughout the entire design and approval process. Their desire was to be good neighbors, and they look forward to bringing this vibrant housing development to the area.
As public comment, Chris Bordne said that squeezing eight more condos with 20 parking spaces designed to use the alley as primary access would greatly stress the flow of traffic already experienced in the alley. He worried about the proximity of Kingsbury Elementary School and how the alley traffic would impact walkability and public safety. Adriana Gonzales requested the Council deny the project because she said it was not in compliance with the standards set out in Chapters 6, 7 and 8 of the Historic Architectural Design Guidelines. Three letters of written comment opposed the development based on concerns that the project is incompatible with the historical character of the district, that the increased usage of the alley, and adding 20 additional cars, will reduce the quality of life in the area, and that the building height and massing of lots did not align with the neighborhood.
With no further comments, Mayor Saucedo closed the public hearing. Council Members thanked the Applicant for making all the necessary revisions to the project. Their discussions focused on the alley and whether it could accommodate an additional 20 vehicles. Council Member Tejeda thought the alley was unsuitable as the only access point and instead preferred access off Cajon Street.
Director Desatnik clarified that this alley conforms with the standard width of 20 feet and the dimension is consistent with other service alleys throughout the city that have proven to be functionally adequate.
On motion of Mayor Mario Saucedo, seconded by Council Member Denise Davis, the City Council determined, by roll call vote, that adoption of Resolution No. 8731 is not subject to environmental review pursuant to Sections 15315 and 15332 of the California Environmental Quality Act; and adopted Resolution No. 8731 for approval of the following land use entitlements for the development of two vacant parcels located at 516 Cajon Street (APNs: 0173-043-15-0000 and 0173-043-16-0000) in the Administrative & Professional Office (A-P) District; Approval of Tentative Tract Map No. 20792; Approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 1201; Approval of Commission CC_November 18, 2025

NEW BUSINESS
Pioneer Avenue from Texas Street to Furlow Drive Approved Design Reconsideration
Development Services Director Desatnik briefly provided background on Council Member Tejeda's request to reconsider the approved design of Pioneer Avenue, from Texas Street to Furlow Drive. A portion of the approved alignment for Pioneer Avenue includes a median intended to preserve the existing Deodar Cedar trees along the north side of the street. Councilmember Tejeda has expressed interest in modifying the alignment due to concerns that the median may impede traffic flow along the corridor and because the trees appear unsightly. The design of the new cross-section was driven by two objectives: the need to widen this section of Texas to four lanes to improve traffic flow through the intersection of Texas and Pioneer, and the desire to preserve the existing Deodar Cedar trees along the north side of Pioneer Avenue. Because the southern half of Pioneer Avenue is already improved to its ultimate alignment, the widening would need to occur on the north side of the street. In 2015, community feedback favored preserving the trees, as they contribute to the aesthetics of Pioneer Avenue and provide potential nesting habitat for local and migratory birds.
Council Member Tejeda explained that his intent in bringing this item to the Council was to address safety concerns and traffic flow on Pioneer Avenue. He supports protecting trees, but raised questions about the health of the remaining Deodar trees. Erik Reeves, the City’s staff arborist, addressed the Council explaining he recently conducted a Level 1 Visual Tree Risk Assessment of the Deodar trees and found that the four trees located on the north side of Pioneer, between Texas Street and Castlegate Avenue, are in poor to moderate condition. Deodar trees of this size would require a huge median to accommodate root structures.
From a staff perspective, eliminating the median and removing the Deodar trees would provide the benefit of reducing the amount of right-of-way that must be acquired and lower the overall project cost. It would also allow the widening of Pioneer Avenue to be completed more efficiently and within a shorter timeframe. The project would still require some right-of-way acquisition, but considerably less than if the trees were to be preserved in a median.
As public comment, several people, including, Germaine Miles, Michael Paisner, Valerie Taber, Jennifer Maravillas, Eddie DeLaTorre, Dr. Julia Lenhardt, Roberto Ceja, and Andre Coyazo spoke passionately about preserving the historically significant northside trees. They urged the Council to develop a rehabilitation plan and protect these iconic trees, which are environmentally beneficial and offer valuable shade. Andy Hoder pointed out that preserving trees may not always be the best approach, and he said these particular trees appeared to be struggling. He added that traffic flow in the area is an issue, and he recommended the Deodar trees be removed, and new trees be planted to replace them.
A brief recess was taken at 8:10 p.m. with the meeting reconvening at 8:15 p.m.
Council Members considered the value of preserving and maintaining trees, raised liability concerns if trees are not properly maintained, and questioned whether Measure I CC_November 18, 2025
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25

raised liability concerns if trees are not properly maintained, and questioned whether Measure I funding might be available. Municipal Utilities and Engineering Director Harris stated that Measure I funding was about a decade away, while City Manager Duggan added that staff would have to review budgeting concerns regarding this project's viability. Mayor Saucedo mentioned that many trees have been planted on the northside during a number of Community Days of Service. It was agreed that efforts to rehabilitate the trees would be an important step to make them healthier and ultimately preserve them. Traffic flow would remain as is while the rehabilitation work is ongoing. Mayor Saucedo requested to see a cost analysis for the right-of-way acquisition and the cost for other options. No voting action was taken on this item.

Prohibition of New Warehouses and Logistics Distribution Centers
Planning Manager Brian Foote summarized the recommendation from the Redlands Planning Commission to initiate an Ordinance Text Amendment to Title 18 (Zoning Regulations) of the Redlands Municipal Code to prohibit new warehouses and logistics distribution centers (as defined in Article XII of Chapter 18.156 of Title 18) in all zoning districts and specific plans within the City of Redlands. On October 4, 2025, the Planning Commission voted 5 to 1 to recommend that the City Council consider a code amendment to the Zoning Regulations (Title 18 of the Redlands Municipal Code) to prohibit new warehouses and logistics distribution centers in all zoning districts and specific plans within the City of Redlands, as well as other code amendments to address additional potential development scenarios related to warehouse uses. Their recommendations include:
Allow existing warehouses to remain as legal, conforming uses Allow existing warehouses to be rebuilt if destroyed by fire, or other natural disaster, only to the same square footage and building height
Prohibit the construction of new warehouses citywide (in all zoning districts and specific plan districts)
Prohibit the assemblage of parcels that may contain existing industrial or warehouse buildings for the purpose of building new warehouses"

As public comment, eight people, including Germain Miles, Dick Corneille and Linda Hamilton, of ANCA, Valerie Taber, Michael Paisner, Jennifer Maravillas, Bruce Laycook, and Roberto Ceja strongly voiced their support of the Planning Commission's recommendations to ban all future warehouses in the City. They cited public health, environmental impacts, and increased greenhouse gas emissions as the primary reasons to establish the ban. Additionally, it was suggested the City needed more affordable housing, not more warehouses. Andy Hoder was not advocating for more warehouses but asked some hard questions about what to do with the properties. If not a warehouse, what then?
Council Members each offered their thoughts and perspectives, with general agreement and support of banning future warehouses in the City. It was pointed out that Council Members do have an obligation to protect the City from litigation, and they must base their decisions on facts, not opinions.
On motion of Council Member Denise Davis, seconded by Council Member Paul Barich, the City Council unanimously directed staff, by roll call vote, to prepare a draft ordinance for the Planning Commission's consideration to accomplish the following:
Allow existing warehouses to remain as legal, conforming uses.
Allow existing warehouses to be rebuilt if destroyed by fire, or other natural disaster, only to the same square footage and building height.
Prohibit the construction of new warehouses citywide (in all zoning districts and specific plan districts).
Prohibit the assemblage of parcels that may contain existing industrial or warehouse buildings for the purpose of building new warehouses."

The proposed project will replace the existing stop signs with four (4) new mast-arm traffic signal poles equipped with signal heads, pedestrian signal heads, luminaires, conduit, a signal cabinet/controller, a signal service cabinet, and video radar detection. The project will also include new striping and concrete improvements to enhance safety and traffic efficiency at the intersection. As public comment, Bruce Laycook requested the City install a 4-way stop sign on Cypress between Center Street and Cajon, and consider installing additional traffic-calming measures, as well.
On motion of Mayor Pro Tempore Marc Shaw, seconded by Council Member Paul Barich, the City Council unanimously determined, by roll call vote, that acceptance of a $900,000 Highway Safety Improvement Program Cycle 12 grant and approval of a construction contract and construction of a new traffic signal at the Cypress Avenue/Cajon Street intersection, Project No. 253008, HSIPSL-5083 (032), are categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15301(c) of the State's guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act; accepted a $900,000 California Department of Transportation Highway Safety Improvement Program Cycle 12 grant award; approved the Cypress Avenue/Cajon Street Traffic Signal Project plans and specifications, and awarded a construction contract to Sierra Pacific Electrical Contracting for an amount CC_November 18, 2025

Ordinance No. 2987 Integrated Solid Waste Management/Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction
Facilities and Community Services Department Director Crocker highlighted the key points of Ordinance No. 2987, amending Chapter 13.64 (Integrated Solid Waste Management) and 13.67 (Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction) of the Redlands Municipal Code Relating to Organic Waste. The purpose of this ordinance amendment is to update and clarify the City’s solid waste regulations in order to ensure consistency, and support compliance with state mandates related to organic waste disposal. Specifically, the proposed ordinance incorporates the term “organic waste” throughout Chapter 13.64 to align with Chapter 13.67 and with current state definitions and requirements under SB 1383. In doing so, the ordinance enhances clarity and supports the City’s commitment to regulatory compliance and sustainable waste practices. Further, the ordinance removes all existing exemptions from participation in the green waste program, making organic waste collection mandatory for all customers unless otherwise noted. This will help to ensure uniformity throughout the City.
On motion of Council Member Paul Barich, seconded by Council Member Denise Davis, the City Council unanimously introduced, by roll call vote, Ordinance No. 2987 of the City of Redlands Amending Chapter 13.64 (Integrated Solid Waste Management) and 13.67 (Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction) of the Redlands Municipal Code Relating to Organic Waste.

City Council Meeting I. 3.
DATE: 12/02/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Approve the Final Map for Tract No. 20755 and a Determination of Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15268(b)(3) (Development Services Director Desatnik)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motions are provided:
I move that the City Council determines that approval of the final map for Tract No. 20755 is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15268(b)(3).
1. I move that the City Council approves the final map for Tract No. 20755.2.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approves the final map for Tract No. 20755 and determines that its approval is exempt from CEQA.
DISCUSSION:
On April 8, 2025, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map No. 20755 which proposes the subdivision of approximately 3.12 acres for mixed-use development purposes at the northeast corner of Eureka Street and Stuart Avenue.
The subdivider has satisfied all conditions of approval of the tentative map. Staff and the City's contracted land surveyor have reviewed the final map and determined that it substantially conforms to the approved tentative map. The subdivision improvement agreement (to be recorded with the final map) and associated financial security (based on the construction cost estimated by the Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25
29 of 543
project engineer), ensure that off-site improvements will be installed during project development.
Approval of final subdivision maps is considered a ministerial project and is therefore exempt from environmental review under CEQA pursuant to section 15268(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.
ALTERNATIVES:
Recommend corrections to the final map and/or subdivision improvement agreement.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Not applicable.

DISCUSSION:
On June 17, 2025, (Item No. L.3) City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with RRM Design Group for the preparation of standard construction design plans for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). Staff needs additional time to work with the consultant and prepare the draft architectural design plans, as well as refine and finalize the architectural plans over the next few months. This will extend the timeline beyond the original expiration date of December 31, 2025, and staff is requesting an extension of six months to June 30, 2026.
This item is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the State's guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act.
ALTERNATIVES:
City Council may elect not to approve this action and provide alternative direction to staff. However, any delays would impact the timeline and the encumbrance of funds allocated in the current fiscal year to the project.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
This project 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." SUBMITTED BY:

Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25
103 of 543
DISCUSSION:
The Facilities and Community Services Department manages the administration and issuance of permits for special events held in public areas of the City. Upon the issuance of a special event permit, the event may take place contingent on the event organizer paying the required fees. However, the City recognizes the value of partnering with non-profit agencies and organizations to provide services beneficial to the community. In an effort to support programs that provide a community benefit, the City Council will, from time to time, consider the authorization of in-kind support including the use of city equipment, staff, and facilities for special events.
The Chamber of Commerce (Chamber) is a registered non-profit organization based in the City of Redlands. They are requesting to host their NYE Orange Drop celebration in downtown Redlands on December 31, 2025, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. This will be their 6th year holding this event, and the Chamber intends to provide a free family-friendly event featuring live music, vendors, performers, food, and a kids’ zone that will include jumpers, face painters and other children’s activities. The evening’s entertainment, including performances and a live DJ, will culminate in the signature Orange Drop at 9:00 p.m.
The Chamber has submitted a request for approval to temporarily close specific streets in the downtown area on December 31, 2025, to accommodate the event. Proposed closures include:
Citrus Avenue between 6th Street and Olive Avenue; 6th Street, 7th Street, & 8th Street between Citrus Ave and E. State Street.
The requested closure times are as follows:
Citrus Avenue: 8:00 a.m. on December 31, 2025, to 8:00 a.m. on January 1, 2026, allowing adequate time for cleanup by street sweepers and city staff before reopening to traffic.
6th, 7th, and 8th Streets: 9:00 a.m. on December 31, 2025, to 2:00 a.m. on January 1, 2026.
Additionally, the Chamber is requesting in-kind support in the amount of $35,368.22 for departmental resources, including Police and Facilities and Community Services (FCS) personnel. Per the Chamber's application, they anticipate 6,000 attendees, with participation from more than 20 vendors.
Previously, the City Council approved $25,778.00 in in-kind support for last year’s NYE Orange Drop event, hosted on December 31, 2024. The Chamber envisions this year’s celebration as a community-centered gathering that promotes Downtown Redlands' businesses, enhances local economic activity, and showcases regional talent. The event aims to attract visitors from across the East Valley and Inland Empire, providing exposure and business opportunities for local merchants and vendors.

In an effort to support programs that provide a community benefit, the City Council will, from time to time, consider the authorization of in-kind support including the use of City equipment, staff, and facilities for special events.
The Redlands Bowl Performing Arts (RBPA) is preparing its annual Christmas Under The Stars Concert, scheduled to take place on December 12, 2025, from 7:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., with the show starting at 8:00 pm. The anticipated attendance for the Redlands Bowl Christmas Under the Starts event is approximately 5,000 attendees. RBPA is also requesting in-kind support totaling $5,860.83 for the street closure related to this event. The RBPA is a registered 501(c) non-profit organization operating out of the City of Redlands. The City Council has approved similar requests for past events.
Street closures include Eureka Street, starting at Brookside Avenue, south to Olive Avenue; and Grant Street, starting at Brookside Avenue, south to Olive Avenue; and W. Vine Street from Cajon Street to Eureka Street. All street closure signs will be in place between the times of 7:00 p.m. and 10:30 p.m and street closure will begin at 7:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
The event is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act’s guidelines pursuant to Section 15311(c). Section 15311(c), Accessory Structures Class 11 facilities, consists of the construction or replacement of minor structure accessory to existing commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, including placement of seasonal or temporary use items such as mobile food units, portable restrooms or similar items in generally the same locations from time to time in publicly owned parks or other facilities designed for public use.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may elect to deny the request for in-kind support, deny the request for temporary street closure and direct staff accordingly.

DISCUSSION:
The City of Redlands (“City”) owns and operates the Ediberto & Gloria Flores Senior Center, located at 111 West Lugonia Avenue, and the Joslyn Senior Center, located at 21 Grant Street. These facilities provide programs, services, and resources designed to enhance the well-being of older adults within the community.

This agreement represents a strategic partnership that leverages City-owned facilities to deliver public benefits supporting seniors’ independence, health, and quality of life.
The proposed Facility Use Agreement is for a five-year term. Use of the facilities will be non-exclusive and subject to scheduling coordination with the Facilities and Community Services Department to ensure compatibility with existing programs and activities.
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 facilities. The proposed use does not involve any expansion of the facilities’ current or prior use.

City Council Meeting I. 9.
DATE: 12/02/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. 8736 to receive an annual report of City of Redlands surplus lands (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 adopt Resolution No. 8736.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8736 declaring certain City-owned properties classified as "not surplus" or “exempt property”, and determine that adoption of the Resolution is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State's Guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act.
DISCUSSION:
Assembly Bill (AB) 1486 was approved by the State Legislature and signed by the Governor in the Fall of 2019. AB 1486 made various amendments to Government Code Sections 54220 et seq., concerning the process for disposition of surplus land by cities and other local agencies. These new laws became effective on January 1, 2020. As such, these new laws require the City to annually report on surplus land held by the City. The intent of this legislation, is to improve the process for providing notice of surplus land to facilitate the development of affordable housing around the State. The new law requires that any land “not necessary for the agency’s use” be declared surplus.
Prior to the disposition of the land, “Agency’s use” is defined in the new law as land that is used or planned to be used for the agency’s work or operations, Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25
131 of 543
such as a water treatment plant, park, detention basin, or other agency use. The state law definition of “Agency use” expressly excludes commercial or industrial uses, such as non-government retail, entertainment, or office development. If an agency disposes of land to finance such a project or activity, that disposition must go through the surplus land process under the new law.
Resolution No. 8736 includes Exhibit "A", a table of properties that are not surplus, and for which the agency has a use. Exhibit "B" includes a table of exempt properties with the criteria for exemption.
Adoption of Resolution No. 8736 is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State's guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This section states that a project is exempt from CEQA if it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. The recommended action is consistent with this section as it only identifies certain property as not surplus and will not have a physical effect on the environment.

BACKGROUND:
Title 15 of the Redlands Municipal Code (RMC) contains administrative and technical requirements for building construction within the jurisdiction of the City of Redlands. RMC adopts State building standards and additional model codes by reference. The California Code of Regulations, Title 24, also referred to as the California Building Standards Code consists of Parts 1 (Administrative Code), 2 (Building Code), 2.5 (Residential Code), 3 (Electric Code), 4 (Mechanical Code), 5 (Plumbing Code), 6 (Energy Code), 7 (Wildland-Urban Interface Code), 8 (Historical Building Code), 9 (Fire Code), 10 (Existing Building Code), 11 (Green Building Standards Code) and 12 (Referenced Standards Code). The adoption process takes place every three years and the latest update was published by the State on July 1, 2025. The 2025 California Building Standards Codes will go into effect on January 1, 2025.
The California Building Standards law provides that any city and/or county may establish more restrictive building standards than those contained in the California Building Standards Code that are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. Administrative provisions in the code can be amended as needed. With the adoption of this Ordinance, Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25
149 of 543
staff is proposing amending the Building Standards Code and adopting applicable localized standards. The localized amendments that will be addressed under this ordinance will be located in Chapters 15.04, 15.06, 15.08,
15.10, 15.12, 15.16, 15.18, 15.22 and 15.23 of the Redlands Municipal Code.
These amendments encompass fencing and walls standards and permitting, construction site safety protocols, hazardous materials safety protocols, permit processing, utility coordination, board of appeals relating to code administration, fire protection related to roof construction in high fire zones, awning installation and permitting, temporary use of streets and alleys, grading protocols, swimming pool safety, sewer and plumbing code administration, plumbing code permit violation standards, electrical code administration and permit violation standards, restrictions of electric fencing, prohibition of utilizing used electrical materials, trailer, commercial, mobile home connections, and mechanical code administration with permit violation standards. All but one of these amendments are carry-overs from the previous code adoption. The Fire Code and Wildland Urban Interface Code will be amended and adopted by the Fire Department in a separate Ordinance.

DISCUSSION:
On April 15, 2025, an Ad Hoc Committee of the City Council was formed to review all charters for the City's Commissions, Boards, and Committees (collectively "Commissions"). Mayor Pro Tem Shaw and Council Member Barich were appointed to the Ad Hoc Committee. During the July 15, 2025, City Council meeting, the Ad Hoc Committee presented their findings and recommendations relating to the Commissions. In response to their findings, the City Council directed staff to work with the Ad Hoc Committee to finalize changes to the City's Commission, Boards and Committees and prepare amendments to the Redlands Municipal Code to incorporate those changes for consideration by the City Council.
Recommendations relating to the Airport Advisory Board, Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, Municipal Utilities/Public Works Commission, Traffic and Parking Commission, Cultural Arts Commission and Citrus Preservation Commission included the following.
Reduce the current membership from seven members to five members.
Change the meeting frequency from bi-monthly to quarterly.
Recommendations relating to the Human Relations Commission included the following.
Reduce the current membership from nine members to seven members, to include five regular members appointed by Council Members and by District, and two student members (one high school and one college).
Change the meeting frequency from bi-monthly to quarterly.
Further, for Commissions with student members, it was recommended to modify the rule to include both high school sophomores and juniors as eligible to apply.
Commissions with student members include the Human Relations Commission, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission and the Traffic and Parking Commission.
To effectuate the aforementioned recommendations, staff has prepared Ordinance No. 2995 amending Chapters 2.18, 2.32, 2.38, 2.48, 2.50, 2.64, and
2.66 of the Redlands Municipal Code to establish quarterly meeting schedules and reduce the memberships of the City of Redlands Airport Advisory Board, Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, Municipal Utilities/Public Works Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25
200 of 543
Commission, Traffic and Parking Commission, Cultural Arts Commission, Citrus Preservation Commission and Human Relations Commission.
Further, with the adoption of Resolution No. 8742 a new quarterly meeting schedule for these Commissions will take effect January 1, 2026. The Commission meetings will continue to be scheduled on the established days and times of the week already in place. For ease of reference, a new Commission meeting schedule is included with this report. It should also be noted that nothing precludes the Commission from calling a Special Meeting as necessary.
Lastly, as recommended by the City Council, all Commissions will be reduced in membership through attrition.

City Council Meeting K. 2.
DATE: 12/02/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Consideration of Ordinance No. 2996 adding Chapter 2.30 to the Redlands Municipal Code to establish a Street Tree Commission and Resolution No. 8734 to disestablish the Street Tree Committee and transfer of the current members of the Street Tree Committee to the Street Tree Commission (Assistant City Manager McConnell) MOTION:
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
"I move that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 2996 and adopt Resolution No. 8734."
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 2996 adding Chapter 2.30 to the Redlands Municipal Code to establish a Street Tree Commission and adopt Resolution No. 8734 to disestablish the Street Tree Committee and transfer current members of the Committee to the Street Tree Commission.
DISCUSSION:
On April 15, 2025, an Ad Hoc Committee of the City Council was formed to review all charters for the City's Commissions, Boards, and Committee (collectively "Commissions"). Mayor Pro Tem Shaw and Council Member Barich were appointed to the Ad Hoc Committee. During the July 15, 2025, City Council meeting, the Ad Hoc Committee presented their findings and recommendations relating to the Commissions. In response to their findings, the City Council directed staff to work with the Ad Hoc Committee to finalize changes to the City's Commission, Boards and Committees and prepare amendments to the Redlands Municipal Code to incorporate those changes for Redlands Regular Meeting of 12-2-25
222 of 543
amendments to the Redlands Municipal Code to incorporate those changes for consideration by the City Council.
Recommendations relating to the Street Tree Committee included the following:
Reduce the current membership from seven (7) members to five (5) members.
Change the meeting frequency from bi-monthly to quarterly.
Formalize the Street Tree Committee into an official Commission established within the Redlands Municipal Code.
To effectuate the recommendations, staff has prepared Ordinance No. 2996 adding Chapter 2.30 to the Redlands Municipal Code to establish a Street Tree Commission. The purpose and duties of the Street Tree Commission remain the same as they currently exist for the Street Tree Committee. However, the membership has been reduced to five as directed by the City Council. Since the Street Tree Committee was established by resolution, Resolution No. 8734 has also been prepared to rescind Resolution No. 6249, which establishes the Street Tree Committee, upon the effective date of Ordinance No. 2996. In addition, Resolution No. 8734 will transfer the current Street Tree Committee members to the Street Tree Commission.
In regard to the quarterly meeting schedule, the Street Tree Commission will meet on the fourth Thursday at 5:30 p.m. during the months of January, April, July and October. The new quarterly meeting schedule will take effect January 1, 2026. In addition, nothing precludes the Commission from calling a Special Meeting as necessary.
Lastly, there are two vacancies that currently exist on the Street Tree Committee that will not be filled in order to maintain the current membership of five on the Street Tree Commission.

233 of 543
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the grant award of $2,000,000, from the Prop 47 Grant Program and authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the grant agreement and related program documents, and authorize the additional appropriation of $2,000,000. Staff further recommends the approval of positions as described in the staff report below with a term for each not to exceed June 30, of 2029.
DISCUSSION:
On June 23, 2025, the Board of State and Community Corrections announced the Proposition 47 Cohort grant deadline. The City of Redlands was awarded grant funding of $2,000,000, which will be allocated to local non-profit service providers as sub-recipients in order to meet the project's proposed outcomes.
Funding for the agreements under the Homeless Resource Services Program will begin on October 1, 2025 and will end on June 30, 2029. These funds will focus on addressing homelessness and supporting mental health services, treatment for substance-use disorder, and diversion programs for people in the criminal justice system.
The City of Redlands has existing partnerships with key community organizations that will serve as sub-recipients of grant awards. A portion of the grant funds will be allocated to local nonprofit organizations, which will act as subcontractors to deliver critical services aligned with the program's goals. This approach leverages the expertise of community-based organizations to ensure efficient and effective service delivery. Upon the City Council's formal acceptance of the grant, staff will prepare detailed agreements with these subcontractors for future Council approval. In addition to funding service delivery, a portion of the grant will be used to bolster the City's Homeless Solutions Division by hiring dedicated personnel, including:
One Part-time Outreach Coordinator (2-year limited term) One Fulltime Community Outreach (3-year fully benefited) One Senior Administrative Assistant (3-year fully benefited) These roles are designed to provide on-the-ground support and to facilitate program coordination.
The proposed budget spans until June 30, 2029, ensuring sustained impact through structured resource allocation. This investment is expected to help individuals. The table below shows the proposed budget for the grant funds:

ALTERNATIVES:
City Council may elect not to approve Resolution No. 8737 and the grant award of $2,000,0000 and provide alternative direction to staff. However, electing not to approve this item could result in the loss of grant funding by not meeting the expenditure deadline.
