Agenda Item Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Hilly Sebadja, Sr. Management Analyst
Subject: Adopt Resolution 2026-65 Approving the Area D Regional Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Mutual Aid Agreement
____________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY
The Area D Regional Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Mutual Aid Agreement was developed to coordinate CERT resources and to establish a formal CERT Mutual Aid Program. The Agreement standardizes program and training standards for regional CERT team deployment, allowing San Dimas access to trained CERT volunteers across the region to assist with pre-planned events, emergencies, and disasters in the city.

Implementation of the Agreement has no fiscal impact on the current budget.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Adopt Resolution 2026-65 approving the Area D Regional Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Mutual Aid Agreement; and

2. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the Agreement.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov
No

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the Area D Regional CERT Mutual Aid Agreement will not impact the Fiscal Year 2026–27 City Budget. There are no costs associated with entering into the Agreement.

Adopt Resolution 2026-65 Approving the Area D Regional Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Mutual Aid Agreement Page 2
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026

BACKGROUND

1. In August 2018, development began of the Area D Regional CERT Mutual Aid Agreement.

2. In December 2019, the Area D Regional CERT Advisory Board approved the Agreement and recommended approval to the Area D Executive Board.

3. In January 2020, the Area D Executive Board approved the Agreement.

4. On January 11, 2021, the Agreement was distributed to emergency managers representing the 23 cities within Area D.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
To engage community members in disaster preparedness, cities and other agencies (i.e., counties and higher education) have developed and implemented CERT Programs within their communities. Many cities within Area D have implemented CERT programs to engage residents in disaster preparedness, provide basic emergency training, and expand the availability of volunteer resources during community events and emergencies. CERT training typically includes disaster response techniques, emergency management principles, traffic and crowd control, and mutual aid procedures.

CERT volunteers provide valuable support to local agencies during planned events and disaster operations. Over the past years, CERT teams in Area D have informally assisted one another in responding to local fires, mudslides, and large community events, such as the Fish Fire and Bobcat Fire.

The Area D Regional CERT Mutual Aid Agreement formalizes these program and training standards, deployment protocols, and communication procedures. There is no requirement for all or a majority of the cities in Area D to enter into this Agreement for it to be effective. The Area D Disaster Management Coordinator (DMAC) will maintain participation records and coordinate team deployments when mutual aid requests are received.

Currently, the cities of Claremont, Duarte, Glendora, La Verne, Monrovia, Rosemead, San Dimas, Sierra Madre, Temple City, and West Covina have affiliated CERT teams. Only cities that formally adopt the Agreement and meet established training standards may participate in mutual aid operations.

By adopting the Agreement, San Dimas will expand its access to trained CERT volunteers, improving the City’s ability to respond effectively during pre-planned events, emergencies, and disaster incidents.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council may decide to not adopt the resolution to approve the Area D Regional Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Mutual Aid Agreement. There is no requirement for all or a majority of the cities in Area D to enter into this agreement for it to be effective.

Adopt Resolution 2026-65 Approving the Area D Regional Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Mutual Aid Agreement Page 3
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

Agenda Item Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Daniel Ford, Facilities Manager
Subject: Approve an Agreement with Bosch Building Technologies, LLC for City Hall and Community Building HVAC Building Management System Server Host and Technical Services in the Amount of $55,896.00 for Three Years ____________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY
The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems that support City Hall and Community Building operations are controlled through a building management system software. The software is owned and hosted virtually by Bosch Building Technologies. The system oversees an extensive amount of equipment that deliver air to the facilities. The system software and host services are required to operate the system efficiently and effectively.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
• Approve a vendor agreement with Bosch Building Technologies, LLC for cloud host and technical support services in the amount of $55,896.00. • Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to enter into the agreement in a form approved by the City Attorney.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov
Yes

FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed three-year contract with Bosch Building Technologies, LLC for cloud host and technical support services totals $55,896, with an annual cost of $18,635. The Fiscal Year 2026- 27 City budget includes sufficient funding to cover Year 1 expenses, with $7,800.00 appropriated

City Hall and Community Building HVAC Building Management System Server Host and Technical Service Agreement Page 2
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
in Technologies Subscriptions and License (Account 001.4190.035.001) and $13,000 appropriated in Civic Center Maintenance of Equipment (Account 001.4411.015.000.), providing a total available appropriation of $20,800. The remaining $2,165.00 of budget allocation for this item will roll back into the available general fund reserves. A budget appropriation of $7,800 in account 001.4190.035.001 and an appropriation of $10,835 will need to be included in future proposed budgets for fiscal years 2027-28 and 2028-29 in order to provide funding to complete this agreement.

BACKGROUND
In 2010, City Hall and the Stanley Plummer Community Building underwent an extensive renovation and remodeling project that was required to meet California Title 24 requirements of that time. Included in this project was the addition, replacement or upgrades to the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. This included new air handlers, chillers, economizers, hot and cold-water loops, duct work, thermostats, wiring, controls, software, sensors, variable air volume (VAV) devices, automated control valves, and a Building Management System, also known as a BMS.

The Building Management System works as the brain coordinating sensors, equipment, and controls to improve conditions, efficiency, safety, and the life of equipment. The BMS meets the requirements of Title 24 by providing the following support functions:
• Scheduling and automatic shutoff – automated scheduling and holiday mode • Temperature setback – temperatures are adjusted during unoccupied periods • Economizer control – use of outside air for free cooling • Demand control ventilation – reads CO2 sensors and adjusts ventilation automatically • Zone control and VAV management – coordinates vav boxes, dampers, and airflow setpoints
The City’s system was designed and approved to operate under specific settings and parameters to meet the needs of the facilities and to operate efficiently. The BMS gives direct access to set schedules, temperature settings, equipment settings, and overall live feedback to the status of the equipment, allowing staff to understand a problem and proactively take action to initiate further investigation into any discrepancies within the system.

The efficient operation of the Building Management System ensures lower energy bills, longer equipment life, better indoor air quality, fewer maintenance emergencies, and compliance with California Title 24. HVAC systems are typically the largest energy consumer often accounting for 40-60% of total energy usage.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES & SUBSCRIPTIONS
The City’s prior BMS operated through a standalone computer that performed server-like functions. The computer was due for replacement, and its operating system had reached end-oflife and was no longer supported. Additionally, the existing configuration required network ports to remain open to allow designated Facilities staff to connect from their City computers to the BMS. This configuration did not meet current information technology security best practices and created potential security vulnerabilities within the City’s network.

City Hall and Community Building HVAC Building Management System Server Host and Technical Service Agreement Page 3
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
The existing system also presented operational challenges when HVAC adjustments were required during evenings or weekends. Staff was issued a city laptop to remote-access the HVAC system to connect to the system. Although this provided remote functionality, it delayed response times when HVAC adjustments were needed.

To improve accessibility, operational efficiency, and network security, staff requested that the HVAC vendor provide a cloud-based solution. The vendor proposed hosting the HVAC software application within Amazon Web Services (AWS), allowing authorized City staff to securely access the system through an internet web browser or mobile application. The proposed solution also includes a secure, vendor-managed device that facilitates communication between the City's HVAC equipment and the cloud-hosted application without requiring the previous direct-access configuration through the City’s network.

The solution will also reduce the City's network security exposure associated with the previous configuration. In addition, system connectivity, software updates, maintenance, monitoring, system upkeep, and backups will be managed by the BMS vendor. In 2023 a three-year term agreement was established for the virtual host services with Climatec LLC.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
In 2026, Bosch Building Technologies (Bosch) acquired the former vendor, Climatec LLC. Bosch is a global provider of integrated building solutions, specializing in security, fire safety, building automation, and energy management. Bosch is the sole authorized dealer of construction and service-based Alerton building automation solutions for the greater Southern California. Alerton is the manufacturer of the controllers/devices that connect to HVAC equipment/components and fulfill the communications of operations.

The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems that support City Hall and Community Building operations are controlled through a building management system software. The software is owned and hosted virtually by Bosch. The system oversees an extensive amount of equipment that deliver air to the facilities. The system software and host services are required to operate the system efficiently and effectively.

Therefore, staff recommends entering into a three-year contract with Bosch for hosted services and technical support. At an annual cost of $8,740, the Cloud Server Host Services will provide a secure virtual platform to access the Building Maintenance System. This eliminates the need for an onsite computer, reduces cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and avoids costs related to specialized staffing and software maintenance.

Additionally, Technical Services ($9,892 annually) will include two full-day onsite visits to review operations, back up system files, investigate/troubleshoot system discrepancies, and adjust program logic and setpoint views. This service tier also provides for unlimited remote service.

ALTERNATIVES
At this time, staff is not recommending alternatives; however, the City Council may provide alternative direction to staff at its discretion.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

reasonable control of the party obligated to perform, then that party’s performance shall be excused for a period equal to the period of such cause for failure to perform.

VI. AGENCY REPRESENTATIVE

XI. RETENTION OF FUNDS

Vendor authorizes Agency to deduct from any amount payable to Vendor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute or that are necessary to compensate Agency for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by Agency, and all amounts for which Agency may be liable to third parties, by reason of Vendor’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Vendor’s obligations under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Vendor, or any indebtedness exists that appears to be the basis for a claim, Agency may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of the withholding, an amount sufficient to cover the claim. The failure of Agency to exercise the right to deduct or to withhold will not, however, affect the obligations of Vendor to insure, indemnify, and protect Agency as elsewhere provided in this Agreement.

Secure from the subcontractor evidence of insurance coverage that meets with this Agreement including naming the Agency as an additional insured as required by this Agreement, unless such requirement is waived in writing by the Agency as provided herein below.

XV. INDEMNIFICATION
Vendor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Agency, and its officers, employees, and agents (“Agency Indemnitees”), from and against any and all causes of action, claims, liabilities, obligations, judgments, or damages, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of litigation (“claims”), arising out of the Vendor’s performance of its obligations under this agreement or out of the operations conducted by Vendor, including the Agency’s active or passive negligence, except for such loss or damage arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Agency. In the event the Agency Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial proceeding arising from Vendor’s performance of this Agreement, the Vendor shall provide a defense to the Agency Indemnitees or at the Agency’s option reimburse the Agency Indemnitees their costs of defense, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in defense of such claims.

Payment by Agency is not a condition precedent to enforcement of this indemnity. In the event of any dispute between Vendor and Agency, as to whether liability arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Agency or its officers, employees, or agents, Vendor will be obligated to pay for Agency’s defense until such time as a final judgment has been entered adjudicating the Agency as solely negligent or to have acted with willful misconduct. Vendor will not be entitled in the absence of such a determination to any reimbursement of defense costs including but not limited to attorney’s fees, expert fees, and costs of litigation.

XVI. INSURANCE
Without limiting Vendor’s indemnification of Agency, and prior to commencement of work, Vendor shall obtain, provide, and maintain at its own expense during the term of this Agreement, policies of insurance of the types and amounts described below and in a form that is satisfactory to Agency.

General liability insurance. Vendor shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.

Automobile liability insurance. Vendor shall maintain automobile insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01 covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Vendor arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned, or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident.

Umbrella or excess liability insurance. [If required to meet higher limits]. Vendor shall obtain and maintain an umbrella liability insurance policy with limits that will provide bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage liability coverage, including commercial general liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability.

Such policy or policies shall include the following terms and conditions:
• A drop-down feature requiring the policy to respond if any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectible in whole or in part for any reason, other than bankruptcy or insolvency of said primary insurer;
• “Pay on behalf of” wording as opposed to “reimbursement”; • Concurrency of effective dates with primary policies.

Should Vendor obtain and maintain an excess liability policy, such policy shall be excess over commercial general liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability policies. Such policy or policies shall include wording that the excess liability policy follows the terms and conditions of the underlying policies.

Workers’ compensation insurance. Vendor shall maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance (Statutory Limits) and Employer’s Liability Insurance (with limits of at least $1,000,000).

Vendor shall submit to Agency, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of Agency, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers.

Other provisions or requirements
Proof of insurance. Vendor shall provide certificates of insurance and required endorsements to Agency as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.

Insurance certificates and endorsements must be approved by Agency’s Risk

Manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with Agency for the contract period and any additional length of time required thereafter. Agency reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.

Duration of coverage. Vendor shall procure and maintain for the contract period, and any additional length of time required thereafter, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property, or financial loss which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Work hereunder by Vendor, their agents, representatives, employees, or subconsultants.

Primary/non-contributing. Coverage provided by Vendor shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by Agency shall not be required to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of Agency before the Agency’s own insurance or self- insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.

Agency’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced, Agency has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary, and any premium paid by Agency will be promptly reimbursed by Vendor or Agency will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Vendor payments. In the alternative, Agency may cancel this Agreement.

Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the Agency’s Risk Manager.

Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against Agency, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees, and volunteers or shall specifically allow Vendor or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Vendor hereby waives its own right of recovery against Agency and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.

Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). Vendor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the Agency to inform Vendor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the Agency nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Vendor maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the Agency requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Vendor. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the Agency.

Notice of cancellation. Vendor agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide the Agency with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. If any of the Vendor’s insurers are unwilling to provide such notice, then Vendor shall have the responsibility of notifying the Agency immediately in the event of Vendor’s failure to renew any of the required insurance coverages or insurer’s cancellation or non-renewal.

Additional insured status. General liability, automobile liability, and umbrella/excess liability insurance policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that Agency and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies.

Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to Agency and approved of in writing.

Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Vendor’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.

Pass through clause. Vendor agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party who is brought into or involved in the services by Vendor (hereinafter collectively “Subcontractor”), provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Vendor. Vendor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. However, in the event Vendor’s Subcontractor cannot comply with this requirement, which proof must be submitted to the Agency, Vendor may still be able to utilize the Subcontractor provided Vendor shall be required to ensure that its Subcontractor provide and maintain insurance coverage and endorsements sufficient to the specific

risk of exposure involved with Subcontractor’s scope of work and services, with limits less than required of the Vendor, but in all other terms consistent with the Vendor’s requirements under this Agreement. This provision does not relieve the Vendor of its contractual obligations under the Agreement and/or limit its liability to the amount of insurance coverage provided by its Subcontractors. This provision is intended solely to provide Vendor with the ability to utilize a Subcontractor who may be otherwise qualified to perform the work or services but may not carry the same insurance limits as required of the Vendor under this Agreement given the limited scope of work or services provided by the Subcontractor. Vendor agrees that upon request, all agreements with Subcontractors, and others engaged in the services, will be submitted to Agency for review.

Agency’s right to revise specifications. The Agency reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Vendor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Vendor, the Agency and Vendor may renegotiate Vendor’s compensation.

Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by Agency. Agency reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible, or require proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention through confirmation from the underwriter.

Timely notice of claims. Vendor shall give Agency prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Vendor’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

Additional insurance. Vendor shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the work.

XVII. CONFLICT OF INTEREST
No officer or employee of the Agency may have any financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement, nor may any officer or employee participate in any decision relating to the Agreement that affects the officer or employee’s financial interest or the financial interest of any corporation, partnership or association in which the officer or employee is, directly or indirectly interested, in violation of any law, rule or regulation.

Agenda Item Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Michael O'Brien, Director of Administrative Services Subject: Adopt Resolution 2026-66 to Close City Facilities on December 23rd, 28th, 29th and 30th.
____________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY
The City Council is asked to consider approving the closure of City Hall, the Recreation Center, the Senior Center, and the City Yard for specified dates in December 2026. Although the City Yard would be closed for regular operations, designated Public Works staff would remain available on a standby or on-call basis to respond to urgent operational needs and emergency callouts. Emergency and essential services would continue to be provided as needed throughout the closure period on December 23, 28, 29, and 30, 2026. The closure would extend through the Christmas and New Year’s holiday period, with regular operations resuming Monday, January 4, 2027. Including December 23 provides greater consistency for employees working alternative schedules, including 9/80 and 4/10 schedules, so employees have the same number of closure days and use the same amount of leave for the closure days.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council:

1. Adopt Resolution 2026-66 approving the Closure of City Hall, Recreation Center, and Senior Center, and the City Yard on December 23, 28, 29, and 30, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT

Adopt Resolution 2026-66, Approving the Closure of City Hall, Recreation Center, Senior Center and City Yard Page 2
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
The requested closure dates would require affected employees who are not assigned to work to use accumulated personal leave for hours not worked. The use of accumulated leave assists the City by reducing the compensated absences liability balance recorded each fiscal year. No additional appropriation is requested with this action.

BACKGROUND
The City observes 13 holidays each year, including Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day. For the Fiscal Year 2026-27 holiday period, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day fall on Thursday and Friday, December 24 and 25, 2026, and New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day fall on Thursday and Friday, December 31, 2026, and January 1, 2027.

In each of the last several years, the City Council has approved closure of City facilities on nonCity-holiday workdays between the Christmas and New Year’s holidays. As described in the prioryear staff report, public activity during this period is historically limited because many operations are placed on hold until the holiday season is complete and resume after New Year’s Day. For the Fiscal Year 2025-26 holiday period, the City Council approved closure on December 26, 29, and 30, 2025, and January 2, 2026.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Staff proposes closing City Hall, the Recreation Center, the Senior Center, and the City Yard beginning Wednesday, December 23, 2026, with regular operations resuming Monday, January 4, 2027. December 24, 25, and 31, 2026, and January 1, 2027, are recognized City holidays.

December 26-27, 2026, and January 2-3, 2027, fall on Saturday and Sunday. Accordingly, the additional non-holiday closure dates requiring City Council authorization are December 23, 28, 29, and 30, 2026.

The proposed closure consolidates the non-holiday workdays within the holiday period, when customer-driven activity is anticipated to be reduced. Including December 23 as a closure day also provides consistency among employees working different schedules, including 9/80 and 4/10 schedules. Because regular days off vary among employees under these schedules, the December 23 closure allows employees on comparable alternative schedules to have the same number of days off during the closure period and to use the same amount of accumulated personal leave for the closure days.

This approach also provides operational consistency and public clarity during the holiday period.

Emergency services and essential field services will remain fully operational during the closure period. Staff will notify the public in advance through the City’s communication channels regarding facility closures, available services, and the January 4 reopening. Because December 23, 28, 29, and 30 are not City holidays, the resolution identifies them as closure days and does not designate them as holidays under San Dimas Municipal Code section 2.12.010.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council may decline to adopt the resolution and direct that City facilities remain open during regular operating hours on December 23, 28, 29, and 30, 2026, or provide alternative

Adopt Resolution 2026-66, Approving the Closure of City Hall, Recreation Center, Senior Center and City Yard Page 3
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
direction regarding the proposed closure dates. If the facilities remain open, employees who have not received approved leave would be available for City operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

Agenda Item Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Lauren Marshall, Sr. Management Analyst
Subject: Approve the Tenth Amendment to the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management (ESGVWM) Group Cooperative Agreement; Update the City’s Cost Share for Fiscal Years 2026–27 through 2028–29 in the Amount of $395,648.53 Utilizing General Fund Reserves and Approve the Use of Safe Clean Water Funds in the Amount of $31,468.80 for the City’s Share of a Dry Well Design for Fiscal Years 2026–27 through 2027–28 (078.4341.024.020) ____________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY
The City of San Dimas participates in the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management Group (ESGVWMG) with the cities of Claremont, La Verne, and Pomona to jointly meet State-mandated MS4 stormwater requirements. The Tenth Amendment establishes the participating cities’ cost shares for Fiscal Years 2026–27 through 2028–29 for required stormwater monitoring, reporting, project management, Time Schedule Order implementation, and related compliance activities.

The City’s share is $395,648.53 for the three-year period and will be funded through the General Fund. Staff is also requesting an appropriation of $31,468.80 in Safe Clean Water (SCW) Municipal Funds for the City’s share of dry well design for Fiscal Years 2026–27 through 2027–28. Because the dry wells are considered a new stormwater project, SCW Municipal Funds may be used for these design costs.

Continuing participation in the ESGVWMG allows the City to share required MS4 compliance costs with neighboring cities and is more cost-effective than implementing an independent monitoring and compliance program.

RECOMMENDATION
City Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Approve the Tenth Amendment to the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management (ESGVWM) Group Cooperative Agreement;

Approve the Tenth Amendment to the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management (ESGVWM) Group Cooperative Agreement Page 2
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026

3. Approve the use of Safe Clean Water funds in the amount of $31,468.80 for the City’s cost share of a dry well design during Fiscal Years 2026–27 through 2027–28.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov
No

FISCAL IMPACT
The City's share of the watershed group costs is $395,648.53, as outlined in the ESGVWMG Cooperative Agreement found in Attachment 1, Amendment 10, Exhibit B-10, Pages 7–9. This amount includes water sampling, laboratory testing, technical review, and a 10% administration fee paid to the lead city. Funding for fiscal year 2026-27 was appropriated in the General Fund (GF) NPDES Professional Services account (001.4341.024.020) during the budget adoption. An appropriation for FY 2027–28 in the amount of $128,347.30 and an appropriation in the amount of $128,187.84 in FY 2028–29 would need to be included during the budget adoption process.

Amendment 10 is the first amendment that will cover a three-year period of stormwater compliance for the Group versus a one-year agreement.

The City also receives Safe Clean Water (SCW) Municipal Funds for eligible stormwater expenses. Up to 30% of these funds may be used for operations and maintenance (O&M).

Because the City's available O&M funding is already allocated to other eligible expenses, such as catch basin cleaning, the watershed group costs will be funded from the General Fund.

The remaining 70% of SCW Municipal Funds may be used for new stormwater projects. Because the proposed dry wells qualify as a new stormwater project, staff recommends approving the use of $31,468.80 in SCW Municipal Funds for dry well design. The $2,476.79 necessary for Fiscal Year 2026-27 is available in the budget for account 078.4341.024.020. The additional $28,992.01 would need to be included during the budget adoption process for FY 2027-28 in account (078.4341.024.020).

FY 2026-27 FY 2027-28 FY 2028-29 Total
001.4341.024.020 (GF) $139,113.39 $128,347.30 $128,187.84 $395,648.53 078.4341.024.020 (SCW) $2,476.79 $28,992.01 - $31,468.80 Total $141,590.18 $157,339.31 $128,187.84 $427,117.33
Participation in the cooperative agreement allows the City to share MS4 permit compliance costs with Claremont, La Verne, and Pomona rather than independently funding required stormwater monitoring and watershed projects.

BACKGROUND
Stormwater and non-stormwater discharges from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) originate from various point sources within a watershed and are conveyed through infrastructure such as curbs, gutters, channels, catch basins, and storm drains. These discharges ultimately reach surface waters and may contain pollutants like bacteria, nutrients, metals,

Approve the Tenth Amendment to the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management (ESGVWM) Group Cooperative Agreement Page 3
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
pesticides, and trash—posing risks to both human health and aquatic ecosystems. Aquatic toxicity, particularly during wet weather, is also a concern in the Los Angeles region.

Water quality assessments conducted by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have identified MS4 discharges as contributors to waterbody impairments, resulting in the adoption of 33 Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) across Los Angeles County.

Agreement Amendment
Staff is requesting City Council approval of the tenth amendment to the Cooperative Agreement with the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management Group (ESGVWMG) (Attachment 1).

This amendment outlines cost-sharing responsibilities for Fiscal Years 2026-27, 2027-28, and 2028-29, including:
• State-mandated stormwater monitoring and reporting
• Project management tasks
• Implementation of the Time Schedule Order (TSO)
• Dry well design
To meet these requirements, the ESGVWMG intends to continue its partnership with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (formerly WMH America) who has worked as the group’s consultant since the adoption of the 2012 MS4 Permit. Most recently, the consulting services contract was renewed following a formal Request for Proposals process led by the City of Pomona and Stantec was selected by the ESGVWM Group.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The City is required to comply with numerous mandates under its MS4 Permit, including stormwater quality monitoring. For the past decade, San Dimas, Claremont, La Verne, and Pomona have partnered to share compliance costs and have worked with Stantec to fulfill these regulatory requirements. The City of San Dimas’s overall cost of $395,648.53 for the next three fiscal years includes the following tasks (Attachment 3):

1. Project Management

2. Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Plan (CIMP) Implementation, consisting of:
a. Permitting of Autosampler Equipment
b. Receiving Water and Outfall Monitoring
c. Data Management and Reporting
i. Semi-Annual & Annual Reports

3. Design of Priority Non-Stormwater Diversion Projects

4. Implementation of Time Schedule Order (TSO)

5. Adaptive Management (Evaluation of CIMP & WMP implementation)

6. As needed support services
For fiscal years 2026-27 and 2027-28, an additional $31,468.80 is the City’s portion of designing dry wells for the watershed. As the design of dry wells is a new project, Safe Clean Water Municipal Funds can be used versus using General Fund monies. Three dry well installations are proposed in the ESGVWMG watershed to capture and infiltrate stormwater in targeted areas,

For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
helping address ongoing water quality pollutant exceedances and improve compliance with MS4 Permit requirements. Below is a map of the proposed dry well locations:

Economies of Scale
Should the City choose to withdraw from the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management Group (ESGVWMG) and pursue independent MS4 compliance, the cost would increase significantly due to the loss of economies of scale.

As part of the ESGVWMG, San Dimas currently monitors one receiving water site. Independent compliance would likely require both an outfall and receiving water monitoring location within the city, increasing monitoring obligations and associated costs. Based on ESGVWMG’s current total monitoring cost of approximately $600,000, the City’s share under a standalone program would be roughly one-third, or $200,000, annually.

This estimate does not include the additional $100,000+ likely needed to develop and obtain Regional Board approval for a new, City-specific Watershed Management Plan and Monitoring Program.

Participation in the ESGVWMG remains the most cost-effective and efficient path to compliance.

ALTERNATIVES
Should the City Council not approve the recommendation, the City would need to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) to contract a consultant to perform the required MS4 compliance tasks solely

Approve the Tenth Amendment to the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management (ESGVWM) Group Cooperative Agreement Page 5
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
for San Dimas. This approach is expected to be significantly more costly than continuing participation in the ESGVWMG and paying the City’s share under the cooperative agreement.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This item is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(4) and (5), government fiscal, administrative, and organizational activities that do not commit the City to a specific project or result in a direct or indirect physical change to the environment are not considered CEQA projects.

Approval of the cooperative agreement for stormwater monitoring, project development, and identification does not commit the City to a specific project or result in a physical change to the environment. Therefore, this action is not a CEQA project. Additionally, even if considered a project, it would be exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) because there is no possibility that the action would have a significant effect on the environment. No additional environmental review is required at this time.

ATTACHMENT 2
East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management Group and MS4 Permit Compliance Overview
Stormwater and non-stormwater discharges from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) originate from various point sources within a watershed and are conveyed through infrastructure such as curbs, gutters, channels, catch basins, and storm drains. These discharges ultimately reach surface waters and may contain pollutants like bacteria, nutrients, metals, pesticides, and trash—posing risks to both human health and aquatic ecosystems. Aquatic toxicity, particularly during wet weather, is also a concern in the Los Angeles region.

Water quality assessments conducted by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have identified MS4 discharges as contributors to waterbody impairments, resulting in the adoption of 33 Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) across Los Angeles County.

What is the stormwater program?
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), created under the federal Clean Water Act (1972) and amended in 1987, regulates stormwater discharges and prohibits pollutant discharge without a valid permit. Permittees must implement Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce pollutants to the maximum extent practicable and eliminate non-stormwater discharges.

In California, the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act grants authority to the State and Regional Water Quality Control Boards to establish water quality policy and enforce compliance.

Los Angeles County first received its MS4 Permit in 1990, requiring development of stormwater programs. To coordinate efforts, 84 cities—including San Dimas, which joined in 1992—became co-permittees under the County’s permit. The permit is renewed approximately every five years.

San Dimas and the ESGV Watershed Management Group
On November 8, 2012, the Regional Board adopted an updated MS4 Permit (Order No. R4-2012- 0175), imposing more stringent requirements for managing stormwater quality and volume. In response, the City of San Dimas joined neighboring cities—Claremont, La Verne, and Pomona— to form the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management Group (ESGVWMG).

To meet permit requirements collaboratively and cost-effectively:

On June 25, 2013, the San Dimas City Council approved an MOU to develop a Watershed Management Plan (WMP) and Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP).

On August 11, 2015, the Council approved a Cooperative Agreement with partner cities to share administrative and monitoring costs.

The WMP outlines compliance strategies, identifies receiving waters within each city’s jurisdiction, and quantifies pollutant reduction goals in acre-feet to meet water quality standards.

Within these waterbodies, the ESGVWMG have installed monitoring stations, as shown in the map below.

Additionally, the map below illustrates the results of our CIMP program monitoring and what types of contaminants are found in each location:

The State of California periodically updates the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit, which regulates stormwater and non-stormwater discharges to protect water quality. The most recent permit, Order No. R4-2021-0105, became effective on September 11, 2021. In response, the City of San Dimas updated Municipal Code Chapters 14.11 (Stormwater Management and Discharge) and 14.13 (Low Impact Development) in 2024 to align with current requirements.

Background and Purpose
MS4 discharges—collected through curbs, gutters, catch basins, and storm drains—may carry pollutants such as bacteria, nutrients, metals, pesticides, trash, and other contaminants into local water bodies. These discharges, particularly during wet weather, pose risks to public health and aquatic ecosystems. As a result, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have adopted 33 Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) to identify pollutant limits and improve water quality across Los Angeles County.

The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), established under the Clean Water Act, prohibits the discharge of pollutants without a permit and requires implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce pollution to the maximum extent practicable. In California, the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act grants enforcement authority to the State and Regional Water Boards.

San Dimas and the Regional MS4 Permit
Los Angeles County first obtained an MS4 Permit in 1990. San Dimas became a copermittee in 1992, joining 83 other cities under a countywide permit administered by the LARWQCB. The permit is updated approximately every five years.

To meet expanded requirements introduced under Order No. R4-2012-0175 (2012 Permit), the San Dimas City Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding in 2013 to form the East San Gabriel Valley Watershed Management Group (ESGVWMG) with Claremont, La Verne, and Pomona. The group developed a Watershed Management Plan (WMP) and Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP) to meet permit obligations collaboratively and cost-effectively.

The WMP outlines pollutant reduction strategies, identifies receiving waters within each city’s jurisdiction, and sets volume-based treatment goals (in acre-feet). The CIMP guides ongoing monitoring of stormwater quality at designated locations, with results used to track progress and guide adaptive management.

Monitoring station locations and pollutant data collected through the ESGVWMG’s CIMP efforts are summarized in the accompanying maps.

Task 2.2 - Receiving Water and Outfall Monitoring
Consultant shall perform monitoring at three receiving water monitoring sites and three stormwater outfalls identified in the ESGV WMP CIMP, which was approved on April 16, 2024.

The receiving water and stormwater outfalls shall be monitored three times per yar during wet weather events. The receiving water shall also be monitored during historically driest month (August) and one additional dry weather event. Monitoring frequencies will be followed per the approved CIMP.

Consultant assumes it is anticipated that a toxicity identification evaluation (TIE) will be required to be conducted for wet weather, and it is anticipated that constituents or class of constituents causing toxicity will be identified. Monitoring will continue until the deactivation criterion (two consecutive samples do not exceed receiving water limitations).

Consultant shall communicate to the City of Pomona prior to the precipitation events and upon mobilization of sampling team. The notification shall specify:
 Anticipated start time and date of the monitoring event  Anticipated highest total amount of rain during any given 24-hour period during the event  Probability of the precipitation
 Source(s) of weather prediction
 Name and cell phone number of Consultant’s monitoring event coordinator Field leads will be present during the wet weather events to provide equipment trouble shooting and guidance to the monitoring teams during the collection of stormwater samples.

Assumptions:
 Consultant assumes that bacteria samples will be collected on a weekly basis. It is understood that this frequency may be reduced if the Regional Board approves a lower bacteria monitoring frequency per the April 2026 Guidance memo.
 Consultant assumes that toxicity will not be exceeded for dry weather, and therefore a TIE will not need to be conducted. For budgeting purposes, associated fee is captured under as needed services for one Phase I/II TIE.
 Consultant assumes that a standard TRE Corrective Action Plan can be used for all required locations. Consultant assumes that source control will be the noted BMP for addressing toxicity and no additional modeling will be required. In addition, capture of runoff per the BMPs proposed in the WMP will help address aquatic toxicity. Consultant assumes up to 100 hours to develop a TRE Corrective Action Plan.
 Consultant assumes that wet weather monitoring will not exceed 12-hours per event.  Per Att G, 2.c, no more than two TIEs are required at one RW site during the permit term if the TIEs identify the same constituent or class of constituents as the cause of toxicity. TIE Phase I and II was performed in 2025-2026 for wet weather. it is assumed that one additional

(BB&K Aug 2018)

Agenda Item Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Michael O'Brien, Director of Administrative Services Subject: Approve Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Budget Carryovers and FY 2026-27 Budget Appropriations as shown in Attachment 1
____________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY
Approve carryover of prior-year budget authority for projects, contracts, services, equipment purchases, and grant-funded activities that were budgeted in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 but not completed by year-end. Staff also requests additional FY 2026-27 appropriations for hazardous-material cleanup, an emergency park water-line repair, Proposition A activities, and Charter Oak Mobile Home Park operations conducted by the Property Manager.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
• Approve the FY 2025-26 expenditure and revenue carryovers and the FY 2026-27 additional appropriations detailed in Attachment 1, including $185,000 in General Fund expenditure appropriations, $100,000 in Prop A appropriations, and $900,000 of Housing Authority expenditure to account for operations conducted by the Property Management company and an additional appropriation of $300,000 for a total Charter Oak Mobile Home Park revenue budget of $2,100,000.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:

FISCAL IMPACT
The FY 2026-27 adopted budget reflected a projected $2.0 million reduction in General Fund reserves, including Council-approved uses of reserves totaling $1.0 million to reduce the

Approve Budget Expenditure and Revenue Amounts to be Carried Over from the 2025-26 Fiscal Year to the 2026-27. Page 2
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) unfunded accrued liability, $750,000 transferred to Fund 12 (Infrastructure) for future non-street capital projects, and $250,000 transferred to Fund 70 (New Equipment) for future equipment needs.

At budget adoption, staff advised the City Council that the $2.0 million reduction represented a conservative, worst-case estimate and that the actual reduction could be closer to $1.0 million depending on year-end expenditures.

Although the Fiscal Year 2025-26 audit is still in process, preliminary year-end results indicate a General Fund deficit of approximately $129,358. The proposed General Fund carryovers total $646,904. Combined, the preliminary deficit and requested General Fund carryovers represent a $776,262 reduction in reserves, which is $223,738 less than the approximately $1.0 million reduction discussed at budget adoption and $1,223,738 less than the $2.0 million reduction reflected in the adopted budget.

Other-fund expenditure carryovers total $16,351,685 and are partially offset by $3,947,592 in carryover grant revenues, for a net carryover of $12,404,093.

These expenditures were included in the estimated FY 2025-26 expenditures used to project ending fund balances in the Fiscal Year 2026-27 adopted budget; therefore, the carryovers are not expected to change those projected ending fund balances.

In addition to the carryovers, staff requests $185,000 in new General Fund expenditure appropriations. This amount includes $125,000 for hazardous-material cleanup at a vacant San Dimas property and $60,000 for emergency repair of a water line at Marchant Park. The cleanup costs will be recorded as a lien against the property, and staff anticipates recovering the $125,000 when the property is sold. Accordingly, the immediate General Fund reserve use is $185,000, with an anticipated long-term net cost of $60,000 after recovery of the lien.

Staff also requests $100,000 in additional Proposition A appropriations: $75,000 for downtown parking enforcement and $25,000 for Proposition A program administration.

Finally, staff requests a $900,000 expenditure appropriation for Charter Oak Mobile Home Park property-management operations and a related $300,000 revenue appropriation, for a net budget increase of $600,000 within the Housing Authority fund. The property manager controls these operating revenues and expenditures in a cash account separate from City-held cash.

BACKGROUND
After prior-year revenues and expenditures have been accrued, staff identifies budget authority associated with contracts, capital projects, equipment purchases, grant-funded activities, professional services, training, and other commitments that were budgeted but not completed by fiscal year-end.

Those unspent amounts are brought forward for City Council consideration as carryovers so the underlying work can be completed in the new fiscal year. Using formal carryovers, rather than re-budgeting projects based on estimated year-end spending, preserves the connection to the original Council-approved budget and improves tracking of multi-year project costs and actual expenditures.

Approve Budget Expenditure and Revenue Amounts to be Carried Over from the 2025-26 Fiscal Year to the 2026-27. Page 3
For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
The requested carryovers in Attachment 1 represent previously approved budget authority that remains necessary to complete outstanding work.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The requested action has two components: prior-year carryovers and new FY 2026-27 appropriations. The carryovers reauthorize unspent budget authority previously approved by the City Council. Many capital projects, grant-funded programs, contracts, and one-time purchases extend across fiscal years because of procurement, construction, grant, or implementation schedules.

Carrying forward the remaining authority allows those activities to continue without creating duplicate appropriations and provides a clearer accounting of total project and program costs.

The new General Fund appropriations address needs identified after adoption of the Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget.

The $125,000 hazardous-material cleanup is intended to address conditions at a vacant property that created health concerns for the surrounding neighborhood. The City expects to place a lien on the property for the cleanup costs and recover those costs when the property is sold. The additional $60,000 appropriation is needed for emergency repair of a water line at Marchant Park so the currently closed park restrooms can be reopened.

The additional Proposition A appropriations provide $75,000 for downtown parking enforcement and $25,000 for program administration. Staff determined at the end of Fiscal Year 2025-26 that the existing $100,000 administrative budget was insufficient to cover the cost of work supporting Proposition A programs. The Housing Authority appropriation reflects anticipated Charter Oak Mobile Home Park operating activity managed by the property manager, rather than direct City operating expenditures. A property-manager operating budget was not available when the Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget was adopted because of the transition between property managers. Staff now has an operating estimate and is requesting the corresponding expenditure and revenue appropriations shown in Attachment 1.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council may deny or modify the requested carryovers or additional appropriations. Denial or reduction of carryovers could delay or prevent completion of affected contracts, capital projects, grant-funded activities, equipment purchases, and other previously approved commitments.

Denial or reduction of the new appropriations could affect the timing or scope of the hazardousmaterial cleanup, Marchant Park water-line repair, Proposition A activities, or Charter Oak Mobile Home Park operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Luis Torrico, Director of Community Development Subject: Discussion and Consideration of an Extension of Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341 for 10 months and 15 days, which Established a 45-day Moratorium on the Development of Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units on Lots Created or Developed Pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero), Declaring the Urgency thereof, and Finding of Exemption Under the California Environmental Quality Act ____________________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY
The Starter Home Revitalization Act (SHRA) was signed into law on August 31, 2021. The SHRA required cities to ministerially approve qualifying subdivisions of multi-family zoned lots to provide modestly sized starter single-family homes. On July 1, 2025, SB 1123 went into effect, which expanded the provisions of the SHRA to qualifying single-family zoned lots to allow up to 10 parcels and 10 units, excluding any accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU). SB 1123 also allows cities to prohibit ADUs and JADUs on lots created pursuant to SB 1123.

On September 22, 2026, the City Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341 to establish a 45-day moratorium on the development of ADUs and JADUs on SB 1123 projects. The moratorium was adopted to provide time for Staff to adopt a code amendment to codify the prohibitions.

The proposed Ordinance will extend the moratorium on the development of ADUs and JADUs on SB 1123 projects for 10 months and 15 days. The extension will give staff time to complete a code amendment prohibiting ADUs and JADUs within SB 1123 projects. The Ordinance will take effect immediately, after a 4/5 vote, and if needed, can be extended, after notice and public hearing, for an additional year.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the recommended action.

BACKGROUND
The Starter Home Revitalization Act (SHRA) was signed into law on August 31, 2021. The SHRA required cities to ministerially approve qualifying subdivisions of multi-family zoned lots to provide modestly sized starter single-family homes. On July 1, 2025, SB 1123 went into effect, which expanded the provisions of the SHRA to qualifying single-family zoned lots to allow up to 10 parcels and 10 units, excluding any accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU).

SB 1123 developments on single-family zoned lots could be significantly impactful to single-family neighborhoods as an eligible lot could be subdivided to provide 10 units, 10 ADUs and 10 JADUs for a total of 30 units on a single-family zoned lot. This assumes that 10 new parcels are created, where each parcel could allow one (1) unit, one (1) ADU and one (1) JADU. While SB 1123 requires cities to approve these projects ministerially, the law does allow cities to prohibit ADUs and JADUs on lots created pursuant to SB 1123.

As a result of the potential impacts, on September 22, 2026, the City Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341 (Attachment 3) to establish a 45-day moratorium on the development of ADUs and JADUs on SB 1123 projects. The moratorium was adopted to provide time for Staff to adopt a code amendment to codify the prohibitions. Ordinance 1341 went into effect immediately and will expire on November 6, 2026, unless it’s extended.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Recently, the Planning Division has received multiple inquiries about SB 1123 developments on single family zoned properties. No formal applications have been submitted; however, Staff anticipates more inquiries and subsequent development applications. SB 1123 developments present an immediate threat to the public welfare within the City as potential overdevelopment of neighborhoods developed to consist of single-family residences, which could negatively impact the community’s public health, safety and welfare, specifically, traffic safety, parking, and fire access, and placing further strain on existing infrastructure.

Ordinance 1342 – Extension of Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341 Page 3 For the Meeting of October 13, 2026
Without such moratorium, density in single family neighborhoods can be significantly increased without proper planning to address impacts related to traffic, parking, public safety, fire access, and strain on existing infrastructure. The City’s current ADU Ordinance allows a maximum of one (1) accessory dwelling unit, either attached or detached, and one (1) junior accessory dwelling unit per property in all zones where single-family residential uses are allowed. Single family properties developed pursuant to SB 1123 could result in up to 10 accessory dwelling units and 10 junior accessory dwelling units on one (1) single family property, after it’s subdivided to create 10 lots. This type of development would not be consistent with the purpose and intent of the City’s accessory dwelling unit ordinance.

Therefore, to mitigate some of the impacts created by SB 1123 developments, the Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341 on September 22, 2026. The Ordinance went into effect immediately and will be in effect until November 6, 2026, unless it’s extended. The proposed extension will extend the moratorium for 10 months and 15 days. The extension will take effect immediately upon adoption by a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council. Furthermore, the moratorium can be extended one year beyond the 10 months and 15 days, subject to a public hearing and four-fifths (4/5) vote.

Typically, the approval process for a municipal code text amendment consists of a hearing before the Planning Commission, followed by the introduction of the Ordinance to the City Council and subsequently, the second reading before the City Council. The Ordinance will then go into effect 30 days after the second reading. This extension will allow Staff to process a municipal code text amendment to codify the prohibition.

Pursuant to Government Code Section 65858(d), ten days prior to the expiration of an interim ordinance or any extension, the legislative body shall issue a written report describing the measures taken to alleviate the condition which led to the adoption of the Ordinance. Since Ordinance 1341 was adopted, Staff has initiated the process to amend the Code to permanently prohibit ADUs and JADUs within SB 1123 projects. The extension will allow Staff to complete the Code amendment, which could take up to three (3) months. The proposed Ordinance will replace the first Interim Urgency Ordinance, and will be in effect for 10 months and 15 days, unless extended subject to a public hearing and four-fifths (4/5) vote.

ALTERNATIVES
There are no alternatives proposed for this item; however, the City Council could decide not to extend the 45-day moratorium by not approving Interim Urgency Ordinance 1342.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

WHEREAS, on September 22, 2026, the City Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341, to impose a 45 day moratorium on the development of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero); and

Where, as here, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question would have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the above-described express statutory authority and its police power, the City Council desires, on an urgency basis, to extend the temporary prohibition on the development of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero).

NOW, THEREFORE, the CITY COUNCIL of the CITY OF SAN DIMAS, California, does ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

A. The City Council finds that the facts set forth in the recitals above are true and correct and hereby adopts the recitals as findings in furtherance of this Ordinance.

B. Additionally, based on the foregoing, both verbal and written testimony at the City Council meeting, including the staff report, exhibits, and any materials provided by members of the public, the City Council finds as follows:

1. There continues to be a public urgency and a need to immediately protect the public health, safety, and welfare as detailed further in the moratorium and in this Ordinance.

2. The extension of the moratorium will continue to prohibit the development of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero).

Urgency Ordinance 1342 Page 3
Interim Urgency ADU/JADU (SB 1123)

3. The City Council desires to provide for the public safety, health and welfare of the residents by exercising its police power authority under Section 7 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Based on the findings and evidence set forth below, the City Council finds that the proliferation of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units in single family neighborhoods which may potentially result from SB 1123 projects presents an immediate threat to the public welfare within the City. This potential overdevelopment of single family neighborhoods could negatively impact the community’s public health, safety and welfare, specifically, traffic safety, parking, fire access, and placing further strain on existing infrastructure (e.g. sewer systems, water).

4. The City’s accessory dwelling unit ordinance allows a maximum of one (1) accessory dwelling unit, either attached or detached, and one (1) junior accessory dwelling unit per property in all zones where single-family residential uses are allowed. Single family properties developed pursuant to SB 1123 could result in up to 10 accessory dwelling units and 10 junior accessory dwelling units on one (1) single family property, after being subdivided to create 10 lots. This type of development would not be consistent with the purpose and intent of the City’s accessory dwelling unit ordinance. Therefore, the extension of the moratorium is warranted to provide Staff with sufficient time to initiate an amendment to the San Dimas Municipal Code to codify the prohibition of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41, consistent with subsection of Government Code Section 66499.41.

5. The City Council finds that without an extension of the moratorium, density in single family neighborhoods can be significantly increased without proper planning to address impacts related to traffic, parking, public safety, fire access, and strain on existing infrastructure. Under the current San Dimas Municipal Code and existing State Housing legislation (SB 9), one single family property can be developed with up to four (4) units; two (2) main units, one (1) accessory dwelling unit and one (1) junior accessory dwelling unit. Single family properties developed pursuant to SB 1123 could be developed with up to 30 units, if subdivided to create 10 lots; one (1) main unit, one (1) accessory dwelling unit and one (1) junior accessory dwelling unit for each lot. What further exacerbates the concern is that SB 123 does not require a minimum lot size to be eligible for development. The City’s single family lots, which average 7,000 square feet in lot size, were developed to support one (1) single family unit, and not up to 30 units if developed pursuant to SB 1123.

6. The City Council additionally finds that the moratorium to prohibit accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (SB 1123) would be in direct conflict with the City’s General Plan Land Use Goal L-1: Maintain the rural small town low density atmosphere of San Dimas. SB 1123 developments with accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units would not be in compliance with the Goal’s objective of providing a community where residential uses are predominately low density and conserving existing residential neighborhoods. In addition, SB 1123 developments with accessory dwelling units

Urgency Ordinance 1342 Page 4
Interim Urgency ADU/JADU (SB 1123)
and junior accessory dwelling units would be in conflict with Goal L-4 – Plan and create an urban form that efficiently utilizes urban infrastructure and services; Objective:

Consider each development proposal in a larger development context. Understand how each development contributes to certain capacity thresholds for circulation, community services and utilities.

7. The City Council finds that adopting the extension of the urgency ordinance is for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety of the residents of the City of San Dimas, as it ensures that the overdevelopment of single family neighborhoods does not occur, which could negatively impact the community’s the community’s public health, safety and welfare, specifically traffic safety, parking, fire access, and placing further strain on existing infrastructure (e.g. sewer systems, water).

SECTION 2. MORATORIUM IMPOSED, During the period of this Ordinance, accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units shall be prohibited on any lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The foregoing shall explicitly prohibit the issuance of any zoning approvals, building permits or any other applicable land use or zoning entitlement or approval of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on parcels created or developed pursuant to SB 1123, notwithstanding other existing zoning provisions and regulations of the City.

The purpose of this Ordinance is to provide for the health, safety and welfare of the City and its residents by exercising the police power provided for in the California Constitution that underlies the City's zoning powers.

SECTION 3. COUNCIL DIRECTION; STUDY AND DEVELOPMENT, The City Council hereby directs City Staff, during the effective period of this Ordinance, to complete an amendment of the San Dimas Municipal Code to codify the prohibition of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The written report required by Government Code Section 65858(d) shall be prepared by City Staff and issued no later than 10 days prior to the expiration of or extension of the Ordinance.

SECTION 4. AUTHORITY, This Ordinance is adopted as an urgency measure pursuant to Government Code Section 65858 to protect the general safety, health and welfare by prohibiting accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units on parcels created or developed pursuant to SB 1123, as allowed per Government Code Section 66499.41(g).

SECTION 5. STATEMENT OF URGENCY, Based on the recitals and factual findings set forth in Section 1 above, which are hereby incorporated and deemed true and correct, this Ordinance is urgently needed for the immediate and long-term preservation of the public safety, health, and welfare. To enact this Ordinance after giving notice, holding a public hearing, and two readings thereof, and thereafter wait thirty days for said ordinance to become effective, will be detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare, in that during the interim period, the possible development of SB 1123 projects could result in the proliferation of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units beyond what the City’s current accessory dwelling unit ordinance intended to allow. Such overdevelopment could negatively impact the community’s public health, safety and welfare, specifically traffic safety, parking, and fire access, and further strain existing infrastructure (e.g. sewer systems, water) meant to serve single family neighborhoods and not

Urgency Ordinance 1342 Page 5
Interim Urgency ADU/JADU (SB 1123)
multi-family neighborhoods. The result of such development would be irreversible and could cause costly negative impacts in the community. This Ordinance shall take effect immediately upon adoption by a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council.

SECTION 6. CEQA EXEMPTION. This Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where, as here, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question would have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. This Ordinance will temporarily reduce the possibility of any impacts on the environment by prohibiting the development of accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units on parcels created or developed pursuant to SB 1123, during the effective period of the Ordinance.

SECTION 7. SEVERABILITY. The City Council declares that, should any provision, section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, phrase or word of this Ordinance be rendered or declared invalid by any final court action in a court of competent jurisdiction or by reason of any preemptive legislation, then the City Council would have independently adopted the remaining provisions, sections, subsections, paragraphs, sentences, phrases or words of this Ordinance and as such they shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 8. SUPERSEDING OF CONFLICTING PROVISIONS. The provisions of this Ordinance hereby supersede the provisions of the San Dimas Municipal Code that are in conflict with this Ordinance.

SECTION 9. PUBLICATION,The City Clerk shall certify as to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same to be published as required by law.

SECTION 10. EFFECTIVE DATE AND EXPIRATION. This Ordinance shall take effect immediately and shall remain in effect for a period of 10 months and 15 days, pursuant to the authority conferred upon the City Council by Government Code sections 36937 and 65858. This Ordinance shall be of no further force and effect 10 months and 15 days following the date of its adoption unless extended in accordance with the provisions set forth in Government Code Section 65858.

SB 1123 also allows cities to prohibit ADUs and JADUs on lots created pursuant to SB 1123.

The proposed Interim Urgency Ordinance will establish a 45-Day moratorium on the development of ADUs and JADUs on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The Ordinance will take effect immediately, after a 4/5 vote, and can be extended, after notice and public hearing, for 10 months and 15 days and subsequently extended for one year.

Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The Ordinance will take effect immediately upon adoption by a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council. Furthermore, the Ordinance can be extended, after notice and public hearing, for 10 months and 15 days and can be subsequently extended for one year.

The temporary moratorium will allow Staff to initiate an amendment to the San Dimas Municipal Code to codify the prohibition of ADUs and JADUs on lots created or developed pursuant to SB 1123.

In addition to the Interim Urgency Ordinance, Staff has also prepared a Resolution which expresses the City Council’s desire to prohibit ADUs and JADUs on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499.41 (Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The Resolution will also go into effect upon adoption and further strengthens the City’s position on ADU/JADU development for SB 1123 projects.

ALTERNATIVES
There are no alternatives proposed for this item; however, the City Council could decide not to approve the Interim Urgency Ordinance 1341 or Resolution 2026-63.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

Interim Urgency ADU/ JADU ( SB 1123)
WHEREAS, an initial period of 45 days will permit City staff to undertake an initial investigation of these matters and recommend a course of action to the City Council, while avoiding the potential adverse impacts from the development of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499. 41 ( Senate Bill 1123, Caballero); and
WHEREAS, on September 22, 2026, the City Council considered this Interim Urgency Ordinance at a properly noticed City Council meeting; and WHEREAS, this Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality. Act CEQA) under Section 15061( b)( 3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

Where, as here, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question would have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the above -described express statutory authority and its police power, the City Council desires, on an urgency basis, to enact a temporary prohibition on the development of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499. 41 ( Senate Bill 1123, Caballero).

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN DIMAS DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

L
A. The City Council finds that the facts set forth in the recitals above are true and correct and hereby adopts the recitals as findings in furtherance of this Ordinance.

B. Additionally, based on the foregoing, both verbal and written testimony at the City Council meeting, including the staff report, exhibits, and any materials provided by members of the public, the City Council finds as follows:

1. The City Council desires to provide for the public safety, health and welfare of the residents by exercising its police power authority under Section 7 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Based on the findings and evidence set forth below, the City Council finds that the proliferation of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units in single family neighborhoods which may potentially result from SB 1123 projects presents an immediate threat to the public welfare within the City. This potential overdevelopment of single- family neighborhoods could negatively impact the community' s public health, safety and welfare, specifically, traffic safety, parking, fire access, and placing further strain on existing infrastructure ( e. g. sewer systems, water).

2. The City' s accessory dwelling unit ordinance allows a maximum of one ( 1) accessory dwelling unit, either attached or detached, and one ( 1) junior accessory dwelling unit per property in all zones where single- family residential uses are allowed. Single family properties developed pursuant to S13 1123 could result in up to 10 accessory dwelling units and 10 junior accessory dwelling units on one ( 1) single family property, after being subdivided to create 10 lots. This type of development would not be consistent with the purpose and intent of the City' s 01171. 0005 2194139. 1 Page 150 – 153

accessory dwelling unit ordinance. Therefore, this temporary moratorium is warranted to provide Staff with sufficient time to initiate an amendment to the San Dimas Municipal Code to codify the prohibition of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant - to Government Code Section 66499. 41, consistent with subsection of Government Code Section 66499. 41.

3. The City Council finds that without such moratorium, density in single family neighborhoods can be significantly increased without proper planning to address impacts related to traffic, parking, public safety, fire access, and strain on existing infrastructure. Under the current San Dimas Municipal Code and existing State Housing legislation ( SB 9), one single family property can be developed with up to four (4) units; two (2) main units, one ( 1) accessory dwelling unit and one ( 1) junior accessory dwelling unit. Single family properties developed pursuant to SB 1123 could be developed with up to 30 units, if subdivided to create 10 lots; one ( 1) main unit, one ( 1) accessory dwelling unit and one ( 1) junior accessory dwelling unit for each lot. What further exacerbates the concern is that SB 123 does not require a minimum lot size to be eligible for development. The City' s single- family lots, which average 7, 000 square feet in lot size, were developed to support one ( 1) single family unit, and not up to 30 units if developed pursuant to S13 1123.

4. The City Council additionally finds that the moratorium to prohibit accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499. 41 ( SB 1123) would be in direct conflict with the City' s General Plan Land Use Goal L- 1: Maintain the rural smalltown low -density atmosphere of San Dimas. SB 1123 developments with accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units ' Would not be in compliance with the Goal' s objective of providing a community where residential uses are predominately low density and conserving existing residential neighborhoods. In addition, SB 1123 developments with accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units would be in conflict with Goal L- 4 ® Plan and create an urban form that efficiently utilizes urban infrastructure and services; Objective: Consider each development proposal in a larger development context.

Understand how each development contributes to certain capacity thresholds for circulation, community services and utilities.

5. The City Council finds that adopting the urgency ordinance is for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety of the residents of the City of San Dimas, as it ensures that the overdevelopment of single family neighborhoods does not occur, which could negatively impact the community' s the community' s public health, safety and welfare, specifically traffic safety, parking, fire access, and placing further strain on existing infrastructure ( e. g. sewer systems, water).

SECTION 2. MORATORIUM IMPOSED. During the period of this Ordinance, accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units shall be prohibited on any lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499. 41 ( Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The foregoing shall explicitly prohibit the issuance of any zoning approvals, building permits or any other applicable land use or zoning entitlement or approval of accessory dwelling units and junior 01171. 0005 2194139. 1 Page 151 – 153

accessory dwelling units on parcels created or developed pursuant to SB 1123, notwithstanding other existing zoning provisions and regulations of the City.

The purpose of this Ordinance is to provide for the health, safety and welfare of the City and its residents by exercising the police power provided for in the California Constitution that underlies the City's zoning powers.

SECTION 3. COUNCIL DIRECTION; STUDY AND DEVELOPMENT. The City Council hereby directs City Staff, during the effective period of this Ordinance, to initiate an amendment to the San Dimas Municipal Code to codify the prohibition of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units on lots created or developed pursuant to Government Code Section 66499. 41 ( Senate Bill 1123, Caballero). The written report required by Government Code Section 65858( d) shall be prepared by. City Staff and issued no later than 10 days prior to the expiration of or extension of the Ordinance.

AUTHORITY This Ordinance is adopted as an urgency measure pursuant to Government Code Section 65858 to protect the general safety, health and welfare by prohibiting accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units on parcels created or developed pursuant to SB 1123, as allowed per Government Code Section 66499. 41( g).

SECTION 5. STATEMENT OF URGENCY. Based on the recitals and factual findings set forth in Section 1 above, which are hereby incorporated and deemed true and correct, this Ordinance is urgently needed for the immediate and long- term preservation of the public safety, health, and welfare. To enact this Ordinance after
giving notice, holding a public hearing, and two readings thereof, and thereafter wait thirty days for said ordinance to become effective, will be detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare, in that during the interim period, the possible development of SB 1123 projects could result in the proliferation of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units beyond what the City's current accessory dwelling unit ordinance intended to allow. Such overdevelopment could negatively impact the community' s public health, safety and welfare, specifically traffic safety, parking, and fire access, and further strain existing infrastructure ( e. g. sewer systems, water) meant to serve single family neighborhoods and not multi -family neighborhoods. The result of such development would be irreversible and could cause costly negative impacts in the community. This Ordinance shall take effect immediately upon adoption by a four -fifths ( 4/5) vote of the City Council.

SECTION 6. CEQA EXEMPTION. This Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) under Section 15061 ( b)( 3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provides that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where, as here, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question would have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. This Ordinance will temporarily reduce the possibility of any impacts on the environment by prohibiting the development of accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units on parcels created or developed pursuant to SB 1123, during the effective period of the Ordinance.

SECTION 7. SEVERABILITY. The City Council declares that, should any provision, section, subsection, paragraph, sentence, phrase or word of this Ordinance be rendered or declared invalid by any final court action in a court of competent jurisdiction or by reason of any preemptive legislation, then the City Council would have independently adopted the remaining provisions, sections, subsections, paragraphs, sentences, phrases or words of this Ordinance and as such they shall remain in full force and effect. 01171. 0005 2194139. 1 Page 152 – 153
