CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: March 25, 2025
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA ADDING CHAPTER 1.14 TO THE STANTON MUNICIPAL
CODE REGARDING THE USE OF OFFICIAL INDICIA OF THE CITY OF
STANTON AND AMENDING THE CITY COUNCIL RULES OF ORDER
REPORT IN BRIEF:
The City has recently adopted a new formal seal and logo. To ensure that these official indicia are used exclusively for authorized City purposes, staff developed the attached ordinance establishing clear guidelines for their use and incorporated necessary updates into the City Council Rules of Order for consistency. If approved, this Ordinance will add Chapter 1.14 to the Stanton Municipal Code (SMC) to provide a comprehensive framework for the lawful use of City indicia and specify penalties for any unauthorized or improper use.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council introduce Ordinance No. 1161 entitled:
“AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA ADDING CHAPTER 1.14 TO THE STANTON MUNICIPAL
CODE RELATING TO THE USE OF OFFICIAL INDICIA OF THE CITY OF
STANTON AND FINDING THE ORDINANCE TO BE EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT”; and
2. Find that this Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Cal. Code Regs. §§ 15378(a) and 15061(b)(3); and
3. Repeal Resolution No. 90-64 approved by the City Council on October 9, 1990, entitled “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Stanton Establishing a Policy for Use and Dissemination of the Official City Logo”; and
4. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-06 approving the City Council Rules of Order dated March 25, 2025, entitled:
Item: 12D
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON,
CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE CITY COUNCIL RULES OF ORDER,
DATED MARCH 25, 2025”; and
5. Set said ordinance for adoption at the April 8, 2025, regularly scheduled City Council meeting.
BACKGROUND:
During its September 28, 2021, meeting, the City Council directed the establishment of an ad hoc committee to lead staff in revitalizing the City's brand, including the redesign of the logo and motto. On May 9, 2023, the City contracted with HUB, Ltd. for a comprehensive overhaul of the City’s logo, branding, and messaging. A new city seal and logo were approved by the City Council on September 24, 2024.
Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached ordinance which would prohibit the unauthorized use of the current, past, and future City seal and logo for non-official purposes. In addition to the ordinance, the City Council Rules of Order have been updated to reference the new SMC Chapter 1.14 and remove duplicative language to maintain consistency. The revisions clarify when and how official indicia may be used while deferring detailed enforcement provisions to the Ordinance itself.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
Ordinances restricting the use of a city’s seal and logo are a common practice. Such ordinances typically designate the city clerk as the custodian of the city’s indicia and establish penalties for unauthorized use. These regulations often also include explicit statements that limit the use of the city seal or logo exclusively for official municipal business. By creating penalties, the City also aims to discourage and penalize such misuse.
The proposed Ordinance (Attachment A) implements a clear approach to the use of the City's official indicia by restricting access to City employees, unless otherwise approved by the City Council.
The California Elections Code prohibits using a city’s logo, letterhead, or seal with the intent to deceive voters into believing the communication originates from a government agency. (Elec. Code, § 18304.) This Ordinance reiterates that limitation as a bar on any official City correspondence relating to “the unauthorized promotion, support, or endorsement of or opposition to any candidate for a public office or the support or endorsement of or opposition to any ballot measure, initiative, referendum, or any other matter voted upon at a proper election.” Note, however, that this would not preclude the Council taking a position or writing an argument on a ballot measure in accordance with state law.
Currently, Resolution 90-64, adopted by the City Council on October 9, 1990, represents the only official policy regulating the use of the City seal or logo. However, this Resolution 3 requires comprehensive updating to address the current landscape. The proposed Ordinance establishes more precise and enforceable standards for the use of the City's official indicia. If this Ordinance is approved, it would repeal the 1990 Resolution.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
In accordance with the requirements of CEQA, this Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the CEQA pursuant to the State CEQA Guidelines, as it is not a “project” and has no potential to result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378(a).) Furthermore, this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA as there is no possibility that this Ordinance or its implementation would have a significant negative effect on the environment. (14 Cal.
Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3).) Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council direct staff to file a Notice of Exemption in accordance with State CEQA Guidelines.

At its meeting of November 26, 2024, the City Council received consensus and directed staff to proceed with preparing a study session for March 2025.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council declare that the proposed actions are not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) because they do not qualify as a “project” under CEQA Receive and file; and
2. Provide direction to City staff.
BACKGROUND:
In California, selling, transporting, and/or using fireworks that do not carry the “safe and sane” seal is illegal. Each year, serious injuries and millions of dollars in property loss are caused by illegal fireworks throughout California. Severe burns, amputations, blindness, and, in some cases, deaths are associated with the use of illegal fireworks. Each year following the 4th of July holiday, the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) gathers data to analyze the overall impact of fireworks throughout Orange County. The “2024 Independence Day After Action Report” prepared by the OCFA (Attachment A) included the following:
• Injuries: The fireworks injuries contained in this report are only those that were reported; it is very likely that many more injuries occurred that were either not treated or not reported.
o In 2024, the injuries associated with fireworks increased considerably to 66 total reported injuries. (Up from 46 in 2023, a 43% increase.) Item: 12E

o Safe and Sane injuries accounted for only 1% of reported county-wide injuries. 32% of fireworks-related injuries were due to illegal fireworks while the outstanding 67% of injury origins remain unknown.
o Most reported injuries within Orange County were burns to the hands and/or fingers. There were an astonishing 9 reported hand/finger amputations this year that were caused by illegal mortars (four were for minors). • Fire incident and property loss information.
o In comparison to 2023 with reported fireworks-related property loss at $181,300, fireworks-related property loss in 2024 increased exponentially at a reported $1,622,300 (an almost 800% increase).
o There were 4 homes that caught fire due to fireworks in Santa Ana, Lake Forest, Westminster, and Mission Viejo.
The use of illegal fireworks up to and following the 4th of July holiday continues to generate concerns for Stanton residents and businesses. Apart from the potential for injuries, property loss, and fire hazards, the loud noises generated by illegal fireworks impact the quality of life of residents, particularly infants, small children, the elderly, pets, and those who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder.
The City has adopted rules and regulations related to fireworks, which are memorialized in the Stanton Municipal Code.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FORESTRY AND FIRE PROTECTION (CAL FIRE) The California Health and Safety Code mandates the CAL FIRE Office of the State Fire Marshal responsibility for the destruction of dangerous and illegal fireworks once they are seized by local fire departments or law enforcement agencies.
ANALYSIS:
The City Council seeks to consider strategies to improve public health and safety as well as the community’s quality of life during the 4th of July holiday celebrations through the management/enforcement of illegal fireworks.
Many cities in California are facing similar challenges with the noise and hazards of illegal fireworks being discharged within their communities and are implementing different programs and tools to address the issues.
It is important to note that it is difficult to enforce the current prohibitions on illegal use.
Multiple factors including the temporary nature of the illegal activity, the high frequency by which the activity occurs on and around July 4th of each year, and the number of staff and deputies able to respond to calls result in a low number of issued citations relative to the number of violations reported or experienced by residents. To broaden the City’s strategies beyond traditional enforcement tactics, staff surveyed efforts utilized by other jurisdictions challenged by illegal fireworks. These efforts were then reviewed internally with the Director of Public Safety, the Chief of Police, and the City Attorney’s Office to determine viability and feasibility given existing resources. A vetted subset of options that could be implemented in 2025 are provided below for the Council’s discussion and consideration.
OPTION 1: FIREWORKS BUYBACK PROGRAM
• Allow individuals to voluntarily surrender illegal fireworks without legal repercussions in exchange for gift cards to Stanton businesses. • Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of this program would be determined by the dollar amount of the gift cards exchanged for illegal fireworks. Council could set a maximum budget which would be expended until depleted.
OPTION 2: TIP LINE REWARDS PROGRAM
• Create a rewards program to encourage individuals to report major suppliers of illegal fireworks. Such suppliers might include mobile sales vehicles traveling through neighborhoods, home-based sales in Stanton neighborhoods, and illegal retail sales through other legal retail outlets. Rewards would be offered to those individuals submitting tips that result in enforceable action. Any major cache of illegal fireworks observed should be immediately reported to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD) by calling 911.
• Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of this program would be determined by the dollar amount of the gift cards used as part of the rewards program. Council could set a maximum budget which would be expended until depleted.
OPTION 3: PURSUE BUSINESS LICENSE REVOCATIONS FOR LEGAL BUSINESSES
SELLING ILLEGAL FIREWORKS
• Suspend or revoke business licenses of legal businesses selling illegal fireworks.
The Stanton Municipal Code (SMC) allows for the suspension or revocation of existing business licenses in the following instances:
o The building, structure, premises, or the equipment used to conduct the business activity fails to comply with all applicable health, zoning, fire, building and safety laws of the state or city.
SMC section 17.04.010 makes it unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to sell…any fireworks except for in compliance with the SMC. Section 17.04.010 is a part of Title 17 of the SMC, which is the City’s “Fire” regulations.
o The business or any of the business activities or operations is prohibited by any local or state law, statute, rule or regulation, or the business is prohibited in the particular location or zone by any law, statute, rule, or regulation.
SMC section 17.04.010 makes it unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to sell…any fireworks except for in compliance with the SMC. Section 17.04.010 is a part of Title 17 of the SMC, which is the City’s “Fire” regulations.
o The applicant has made any false, misleading or fraudulent statement of material fact in the application for the business license or in any report or statement required to be filed with the city.
Any business license application that included a statement that the applicant intended to sell illegal fireworks would have been denied; and if any business sells illegal fireworks they would have made a misleading or false statement in their business license application which is grounds for suspension or revocation.
• Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of this option would be staff time to open a case, investigate the case, process a suspension or revocation if the case is justified, and any legal costs associated with appeals, along with any costs associated with widely advertising this strategy to local businesses.
OPTION 4: INCREASED DIRECTED OCSD ENFORCEMENT (OVERTIME) • Increase directed enforcement by the OCSD.
o Increased deputies would be deployed between July 1 through July 4. • Fiscal Impact: The overtime rate on average would be approximately $120 per hour, with a potential maximum rate of approximately $134 per hour.
OPTION 5: INCREASED DIRECTED CITY PATROLS (OVERTIME)
• Increase directed patrols by City staff in City marked vehicles. o Staff would be directed to patrol neighborhoods between July 1 through July
4. • Fiscal Impact: The overtime rate on average would be approximately $86 per hour.
OPTION 6: DISALLOW THE SALE AND USE OF SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS IN
THE CITY
• Disallow the sale and use of safe and sane fireworks in Stanton. The City currently permits the sale and use of “safe and sane” fireworks. While less disruptive in regard to noise than illegal fireworks, these fireworks still have the potential to create quality of life issues related to noise and potential health and safety risks. • As of June 2024, eleven cities in Orange County allowed for the sale and use of “safe and sane” fireworks: Anaheim, Buena Park, Costa Mesa, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, Los Alamitos, Santa Ana, Stanton, Villa Park, and Westminster.
• Fiscal Impact: The City Council has historically awarded safe and sane fireworks sales licenses to the Youth Assistance Foundation of Stanton (YAFS) and the Boys & Girls Club of Stanton. YAFS uses proceeds to fund the purchase of toys for the annual Santa Siren event and academic scholarships for Stanton youth. The Boys and Girls Club uses proceeds to fund various programs and to ensure no child is ever turned away due to financial hardship. Gross sales for 2024 for YAFS was $47,126 with net revenue to the non-profit of $15,782. Gross sales for 2024 for the Boys and Girls Club was $42,314 with net revenue to the non-profit of $9,854. Staff has been notified that beginning in 2025 YAFS will no longer apply for a permit to sell fireworks.
OPTION 7A: SOCIAL HOST LIABILITY ORDINANCE
• Adopt a Social Host Liability Ordinance. Existing State and City laws prohibit the use of illegal fireworks and impose penalties on offenders. Currently, State law generally requires that a law enforcement officer personally observe the actual person discharging illegal fireworks prior to issuing a citation. One of the many challenges of fireworks enforcement is that illegal fireworks are often ignited from locations that are not visible from the public right-of-way. Host liability shifts and broadens the focus of enforcement to include the person (“host”) who provides the location.
A Social Host Liability Ordinance allows for the citing of homeowners and tenants of properties where fireworks violations occur. Enforcement of the ordinance would typically be triggered by a call for service at a specific location, or staff observation.
Proposed provisions for a Social Host Liability Ordinance include:
• Social Host Liability. A “host” or “social host” means a person who permits or allows a gathering or person at their place of residence or other private property or any place under their control. A host is generally:
o The person in charge of private property, including but not limited to, an owner, tenant, landlord, or property manager of the property; or o The person who organizes, supervises, officiates, conducts, controls, or is otherwise in charge of the activity on the property. • Exception to Liability. Strict liability is placed on social hosts for illegal fireworks used on their property, unless the following exception applies:
o An exception for social hosts who contact law enforcement or fire officials prior to those officials arriving at a scene or receiving a complaint of a violation.
• Violations in the Right-of-Way. Social hosts may also be held liable for violations in the public rights-of-way adjacent to their private property where the social host aided or abetted in the violation.
Violation of the Social Host Liability Ordinance, like other violations of the firework ordinance, would typically be enforced through issuance of an administrative citation, not initiation of criminal proceedings, though the ordinance does not foreclose the option for the City to prosecute a violation as a criminal matter. The City would be able to issue citations up to 60 days after the violation occurred.
The notices of violation would, as a practical matter, be mailed to the owner of the property on record unless the citing officials, at the time of violation, knew the identity of the tenant or other responsible social host.
If the Council is interested in pursuing development of a Social Host Liability ordinance, the following timeline is proposed:
• March 25: Direct staff to prepare a Social Host Liability ordinance. • April 8: First reading of Social Host Liability ordinance. • April 22: Second reading and adoption of Social Host Liability ordinance. • May 5: Launch a public education campaign leading up to and through the 4th of July.
• May 8: Ordinance goes into effect and can be enforced. • Fiscal Impact: Staff would request the City Attorney’s Office prepare the Social Host Liability Ordinance for adoption.
OPTION 7B: SOCIAL HOST LIABILITY ORDINANCE ENFORCEMENT WITH DRONES • Direct staff to contract for aerial drone services to support enforcement of a Social Host Liability Ordinance. In 2024, the City of Elk Grove, California issued $240,000 in fines to individuals who launched illegal aerial fireworks during the 4th of July holiday, including one household that received $100,000 in fines (Attachment 2).
Each violation of Elk Grove’s illegal firework ordinance, or each single dangerous firework, is considered a separate offense, equaling a $1,000 fine per occurrence.
Elk Grove utilized an aerial drone to capture video to identify homes or properties where illegal fireworks were launched.
• Fiscal Impact: Staff has received three quotes for aerial drone services and the cost would be approximately $5,000. Staff time to review footage and issue citations. Staff believes based on issued fines the costs spent would be recouped.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact is dependent upon the direction of the City Council.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5)(Organizational or administrative activities or governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment).
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:
Public notification provided through the regular agenda process.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVES:
Obj. No. 1: Provide a safe community.
Obj. No. 5: Provide a high quality of life.

Eleven Orange County cities permitted the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks in 2024, for a total of 204 stands throughout the County. A total of 30 public fireworks displays provided safe celebration options for the communities within Orange County.
In 2024, the injuries associated with fireworks increased considerably to 66 total reported injuries.
Last year, Orange County reported 46 fireworks-related injuries. In comparison to the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) 2023 fireworks injury statistics, Orange County’s total fireworks injuries are less than expected for our population. This year, Safe and Sane injuries accounted for only 1% of reported county-wide injuries. 32% of fireworks-related injuries were due to illegal fireworks while the outstanding 67% of injury origins remain unknown. Most reported injuries within Orange County were burns to the hands and/or fingers. There were an astonishing 9 reported hand/finger amputations this year that were caused by illegal mortars.
Firework injuries reported by hospital emergency rooms and urgent care facilities were mapped and compared to areas where the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks has been permitted. Results are a clear indication that hospitals near the cities where Safe and Sane firework sales are permitted did not necessarily report more injuries than those hospitals that are not near those same cities.
Orange County experienced a huge uptick in estimated property loss this year. However, the acreage loss was notably lower than in 2023. The reported amount of confiscated illegal fireworks was also slightly less this year than it was last year.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the fire departments and medical providers in Orange County who contributed data to the analysis in this report. 4 Background and Methodology
Each year following the Independence Day holiday, the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) gathers data to analyze the overall impact of fireworks throughout Orange County. The information included in this report was contributed by hospital emergency rooms, local urgent care facilities and Orange County fire departments to supplement OCFA’s own fireworks data.
Injury data was solicited from a total of 25 hospital emergency rooms and 94 urgent care facilities throughout Orange County for the study period of June 30 through July 5, 2024. This year, we received responses from 10 hospital emergency rooms and 6 urgent care facilities, for an overall response rate of 13%. OCFA’s own Emergency Medical Services data was also analyzed for injuries related to fireworks. The fireworks injuries contained in this report are only those that were reported to us; it is very likely that many more injuries occurred that were either not treated or not reported. National statistics extracted from the most recent 2023 CPSC Fireworks Report were also used for a comparison study.
Fireworks-related fire incident and property loss information was gathered from 11 out of 11 Orange County municipal fire departments, for a response rate of 100%. Narratives from the 14 fireworks-related incidents that OCFA responded to were analyzed for qualitative information regarding the impact of these incidents within Orange County communities. Local online and social media sources were also utilized for information regarding fireworks-related injuries and incidents in 2024.

In San Juan Capistrano, 2 young boys picked up what they thought was a firework but ended up being an unused aerial shell. The shell exploded in the hand of one of the boys when they tried to light it. He had severe burns to his body, burst his eardrums and lost most of his left hand. In Aliso Viejo, another juvenile intentionally lit a firework while still holding it, which led to significant injuries. Fountain Valley FD reported that one civilian ended up losing 3 digits this year due to fireworks. Hospitals reported an alarming 9 hand/finger amputations this year that were caused by illegal fireworks. 4 of those amputations were for minors.
There were 4 homes that caught fire due to fireworks in Santa Ana, Lake Forest, Westminster, and Mission Viejo. Fortunately, there were no injuries resulting from these house fires. The house fire in Lake Forest was caused by discarded fireworks and displaced a family of 5.
In the City of Santa Ana, video footage showing someone throwing a lit firework at a dog in the front yard of a home went viral on various social media and news platforms. The explosion left the dog with significant burns, but the injuries were non-life-threatening, and Santa Ana Police made an arrest for suspected animal cruelty and possessing explosives in public.
This year, the City of Laguna Beach decided to do away with the traditional pyrotechnic show and opted for a drone light show which proved to be a quieter and more environmentally friendly method of enjoying light displays. With pollution concerns and wildfire risks plaguing the state of California, drone shows might be the emerging spectacle that could replace traditional fireworks in the near future.
6 Historical Fireworks Injury Trends
In 2024, Orange County hospital emergency rooms and urgent care facilities reported 66 injuries that were directly caused by fireworks. This is quite higher in comparison to the previous 4 years of reported injuries. Over the past 5 years, Orange County averaged close to 47 fireworks-related injuries per year around the Independence Day holiday (June 30th-July 5th).

As in previous years, the number of reported fireworks-related injuries for adult patients was the highest for 2024. Most years, the adult category seems to yield the highest number of fireworksrelated injuries. Reported injuries for patients under the age of 21 (age brackets 0-7, 8-16 and 17- 21) increased from 26 injuries in 2023 to 35 injuries this year.

7 Types of Fireworks Involved in Injuries
This year in Orange County, most of the fireworks-related injuries were caused by an illegal or an unknown type of firework. Safe and Sane fireworks accounted for an extremely minor percentage of reported injuries. Reported illegal fireworks accounted for 32% of all fireworks-related injuries while reported Safe and Sane fireworks accounted for a mere 1% of fireworks-related injuries. The remaining 67% of injuries were caused by an unknown type. Mortars were identified as the type of illegal firework that caused many serious injuries this year. Mortars were responsible for 4 out of the 9 reported amputations this year.

8 Spatial Analysis of Fireworks Injuries
This map displays the locations of the Orange County hospitals that provided data regarding reported fireworks-related injuries in 2024. The red stars indicate the cities that allowed the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks. The purple ambulance marker indicates hospitals that reported between 1-4 injuries and the mustard hospital shield marker indicates hospitals that reported 5 or more injuries during the study period of June 30, 2024, through July 5, 2024. There were 6 facilities that reported 1-4 injuries and there were 5 facilities that reported 5 or more injuries this year. This information does not conclude that the sale of fireworks caused more fireworks-related injuries.
The spatial relationship of fireworks-related injuries that were treated in and around Safe and Sane cities is not necessarily indicative of an on-going trend that injuries are happening near to the Safe and Sane cities. Reported injuries seem to be spread out throughout the county, regardless of firework sales.

However, reported acreage that was lost due to fireworks-related fires, was considerably lower than in 2023. A structure fire took place in Mission Viejo and resulted in $1,000,000 worth of damages and improperly discarded fireworks have not been ruled out as the possible cause of that fire. Anaheim Fire and Rescue reported $14,000 in damages caused by fireworks and 5 civilian injuries this year. Brea Fire Department reported losses of $7,000 due to fireworks and Huntington Beach Fire Department reported $450,700 in damages with 2 serious blast injuries to the hand for 2 civilians. Newport Beach Fire Department reported 2 brush fires and 1 vehicle discharge that resulted in 3 civilian burn injuries.
In Orange County Fire Authority’s jurisdiction, 14 fireworks-related incidents were reported this year.

According to the 2023 CPSC Annual Fireworks Report, 66% of fireworks-related injuries occurred in the month around the Independence Day holiday. While there was a total of 9,700 fireworksrelated injuries during the entire 2023 calendar year, fireworks were involved in an estimated 6,400 injuries treated in US hospital emergency departments during the single month special study period between June 16, 2023, and July 16, 2023. Compared to the 10,700 injuries treated during the special study period in 2022, there were 1,000 less injuries treated during a similar timeframe in 2023. Orange County’s number of reported firework-related injuries was 66 in 2024 which is a considerable increase from the 46 injuries reported in 2023. Eleven cities allowed for the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks in 2024, which was the same in 2023. In comparison to the national average of injuries reported, Orange County seems to be significantly lower in overall injuries.
This difference could be attributed to the fact that the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks is limited to only 11 Orange County cities. Another contributing factor is that not all injuries may have been reported to hospitals and only a small percentage of medical facilities provided us with their reported injuries.
Nationally, 67% of fireworks injuries were experienced by males and 33% of fireworks injuries were experienced by females. This year in Orange County, the gender breakdown was on par with the national average with 65% of fireworks injuries experienced by males and 35% of fireworks injuries experienced by females.

Elk Grove city officials handed out fines that totaled $240,000 for people who launched illegal aerial fireworks during the Fourth of July holiday this summer, including one household alone that received $100,000 in fines.
Jose Mendez, the city’s code enforcement manager, and Lt. Joshua Magdaleno of the Elk Grove Police Department discussed the results of the fireworks enforcement operation during Wednesday’s Elk Grove City Council meeting.
Illegal fireworks include skyrockets, bottle rockets, Roman candles, aerial shells, sparklers and firecrackers. Each violation of Elk Grove’s illegal firework ordinance, or each single dangerous firework, is considered a separate offense. That means every time a dangerous firework is activated, it is a new $1,000 fine.
Mendez said city officials conducted educational efforts and an amnesty day, allowing residents to turn in any illegal fireworks, to inform them of the $1,000 fines that could be issued to property owners. He said the amnesty day resulted in residents turning in about 3,000 illegal fireworks, including 300 bottle rockets, eight Roman candles and seven homemade explosive fireworks.
The Police Department, responding to calls reporting illegal fireworks in Elk Grove, deployed an aerial drone on July 4 to capture video to assist investigators in identifying homes or properties where illegal fireworks were launched.
The police drone recorded video of six properties where illegal fireworks were launched, with one of the cited properties launching over 100 aerial fireworks, city officials said in a staff report. Video captured by the drone was passed on to the city’s code enforcement officers to evaluate.

“What you can see is the danger of lighting the fireworks in the city,” Magdaleno said while showing a video clip of the home that received the most illegal fireworks citations. “These are going extremely high in the air. You can see all the (nearby) homes down below. You can see the smoke showing the wind direction from the fireworks. And if you look closely, you can see some of the embers landing on some of the people’s houses.”
The police lieutenant said these illegal fireworks, fortunately, did not cause any fires or injure anyone.
The drone video alone led to fines that totaled $180,000 for those six properties cited; all were illegal aerial fireworks that were launched and exploded in the air.
Code enforcement officers also patrolled Elk Grove on the Fourth of July in conjunction with police officers and the Cosumnes Community Service District Fire Department. City vehicles were equipped with dashboard cams that recorded people launching illegal fireworks. That video was used to cite eight properties, which received a total of $53,000 for illegal aerial fireworks.
Investigators from the police and fire departments spotted five incidents of individuals using illegal fireworks, reports were submitted to code enforcement officers. That resulted in a total of $7,000 in fines for five property owners, city officials said.
In total, 19 property owners were issued citations for illegal fireworks that totaled $240,000. The city this week was processing these citations, and fine collection and enforcement efforts are pending.
The volume of calls increased by about 50% this year compared to last year.
Mendez’s report to the City Council indicated the police dispatch center received 562 calls this year reporting illegal fireworks from 6 p.m. to midnight, even though the Come for the

Fourth of July holiday falling on a weekday. There were 375 calls reporting fireworks in Elk Grove last year.
From July 4 through July 5, the Fire Department responded to 80 incidents; 22 were fires, and fireworks were identified as the heat source that caused seven of those fires, according to Mendez’s staff report.

1 CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: March 25, 2025
SUBJECT: APPROVE THE BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS PROPOSED FOR THE MIDYEAR BUDGET UPDATE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024/25 REPORT IN BRIEF:
During the course of the fiscal year, it is often necessary to adjust estimated revenues and expenditure appropriations in various program areas, projects, and funds. Revenue for all City funds is increasing by $1.1 million and expenditure for all City funds is decreasing by $815,662. Half of the revenue increase ($617,915) is to adjust investment income due to increased interest earned from the City’s investment portfolio.
In Fiscal Year 2023/24, the City earned over $2.4 million in interest income. This trend has continued through the first half of the current fiscal year. All of the proposed changes to the Fiscal Year 2024/25 Adopted Operating Budget, including detailed explanations, are presented in Attachment A.
General Fund estimated revenues are increasing by $1.4 million, and General Fund estimated expenditures are increasing by $1.5 million resulting in a net reduction in fund balance of $91,446. As a result, the General Fund’s revised available fund balance is expected to be $34.6 million by June 30, 2025. The General Fund’s estimated fund balance for June 30, 2025, was $32.4 million when the City’s budget was originally adopted last year. The primary reason why the revised balance of $34.6 million is higher than $32.4 million from when the City’s budget was originally adopted is due to the actual fund balance as of June 30, 2024, being better than staff’s projections due to actual revenues exceeding the final budget and actual expenditures being lower than the final budget.
In addition, the proposed budget adjustments include a reduction in the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) by $1.4 million to reflect project savings from completed projects as well as updated engineer’s estimates for existing projects (Attachment E).

2 RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council find that this item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5) (Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment); and
2. Approve the City’s personnel staffing plan to add one limited term full time Code Enforcement Officer position; and,
3. Approve the proposed budget adjustments summarized in Attachment A.
BACKGROUND:
Attachment B illustrates the impact of the proposed adjustments to each fund’s revenue account. Attachment C illustrates the impact of the proposed adjustments to each fund’s expenditure account. Attachment D summarizes the impact of the proposed adjustments to the City’s General Fund Assigned Fund Balance for the current fiscal year. Attachment E summarizes the impact of the proposed adjustments to the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the current fiscal year. Finally, Attachment F illustrates the impact of the proposed adjustments on each fund’s fund balance and includes a revised projected ending fund balance for June 30, 2025.
ANALYSIS:
General Fund Revenues (Attachment B, pages 1-4)
The City’s General Fund is reported in two funds, #101 (for the main General Fund activity) and #102 (for the Transaction & Use Tax Fund, i.e., Measure GG, activity). A summary of General Fund revenues is as follows:

Total General Fund Revenues $ 32,917,150 $ 1,364,554 $ (208,000) $ 34,073,704 100.0% * - Transfer from Transaction & Use Tax Fund to General Fund for Rodeo 39 loan repayment. 3 Property Taxes (29% of General Fund revenues) – Property taxes are the second largest funding source for General Fund operations. The County collects property taxes in April and December. The County’s website posts the amount of secured and unsecured property taxes that will be levied for Fiscal Year 2024/25, which is based on the assessed valuation of properties as of January 1, 2024. The City’s Fiscal Year 2024/25 adopted budget estimated a 5% increase in assessed valuation. The City’s assessed valuation actually increased 7% in Fiscal Year 2024/25. Although the City’s actual increase in assessed valuation is higher than staff’s original estimate, total estimated property tax revenue for Fiscal Year 2024/25 is decreasing by $18,535, primarily due to adjusting redevelopment-related pass-through property tax revenue and real property tax revenues being lower than expected through January 2025 (the City collects approximately 56% of its total annual revenue by January each year.) Sales Tax and Transaction & Use Tax (35% of total General Fund revenues) – The largest funding sources for the General Fund are sales tax and transaction and use tax revenues. When the Fiscal Year 2024/25 budget was adopted, the City’s consultant, HdL, Inc. estimated sales tax and transaction and use tax would be 3% higher than Fiscal Year 2023/24 amounts. As of September 30, 2024 (the most recent sales tax information available), retail sales in Stanton were 3% higher during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same quarter the previous year. In comparison, retail sales activity throughout Orange County and Statewide decreased 2% during the same period. Stanton’s local retail economy is still showing some growth (although lower growth than previous fiscal years). The City’s current estimates for sales tax and transaction and use tax revenues are not being adjusted at this time.
Franchise Fees (4% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of franchise fees the City receives from cable TV, electric, gas, refuse, and water service providers.
The fees are assessed at 5% of gross receipts. Staff is proposing an adjustment to increase revenues in total by $80,700 to be consistent with Fiscal Year 2023/24 actuals and actual revenue collected through February. Cable TV franchise fee revenue is uncertain at this time due to the late payments in arrears from the Public Cable Television Authority (PCTA). The last payment the City received was in October 2024 for the franchise fees related to the quarter ended March 31, 2024. As of the date of this report, the City is owed franchise fee payments from April 1, 2024, through December 31, 2024.
Utility User Taxes (UUT) (8% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of the 5% utility user tax assessed on charges of electricity, gas, water, and telephone charges. Staff is proposing an adjustment to increase revenues by $24,875, to be consistent with the revenues collected in the previous fiscal year. UUT for telephone and gas services were lower in Fiscal Year 2023/24 than the budgeted amounts and UUT for electricity and water services were higher than the budgeted amounts.
Cannabis Tax Revenues (5% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of the 5% tax on cannabis retail sales collected throughout the City. Fiscal Year 2024/25 represents the full fiscal year where all four cannabis retailers are operating. The Fiscal Year 2024/25 adopted budget expected $1.2 million in cannabis tax revenue (based on doubling the Fiscal Year 2023/24 revenue estimate of $620,000.) However, the City’s 4 Fiscal Year 2023/24 cannabis tax revenue collected was $1.1 million. As of the end of February (representing cannabis retail sales through January 2025), the City has collected approximately $1.1 million. Based on the average monthly tax payments from the four cannabis businesses, estimated cannabis tax revenue is expected to be $1.8 million in Fiscal Year 2023/24, an increase of $567,430 from the adopted budget.
Other Taxes (2% of General Fund revenues) – This category includes transient and occupancy tax (TOT) and business license tax revenue. The original TOT revenue estimate used for the Fiscal Year 2024/25 adopted budget expected revenue would be 4% lower than the Fiscal Year 2023/24 budgeted amount because one motel business was expected to be closed during the current fiscal year. However, the motel business is operating and remitting TOT to the City. As a result, staff recommends increasing the Fiscal Year 2024/25 TOT revenue estimate by $28,000. In addition, an adjustment to increase business license tax revenues by $15,000 is proposed based on actual activity through February.
Intergovernmental Revenue (1% of General Fund revenues) – This category includes federal, state, and local grant revenues, as well as funds from the County of Orange for the City’s share of waste disposal revenue and the City’s share of public safety sales tax revenue. The proposed increase of $43,310 in this category is to reflect the following: a) an increase of $15,000 in the City’s share of waste disposal revenue based on the Fiscal Year 2023/24 actual revenue; b) an increase of $10,000 for state mandated cost reimbursement revenue based on the total reimbursement claims filed with the State in February; c) an increase in motor vehicle license fee revenue of $25,000 based on the actual payment the City received from the State in January; and d) a reduction for the City’s share of Proposition 172 public safety sales tax revenue by $6,690 based on an updated estimate provided by HdL.
Charges for Services (1% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of revenue from other funds for their share of General Fund overhead costs. These charges are based on each fund’s percentage of budgeted full-time salaries. Based on actual activity through February, revenue activity is on target to meet the budgeted amount.
Fees and Permits (9% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of fees charged to fund City services in building, engineering, and community services. Staff proposed an adjustment to increase total revenues in this category by $273,775 based on actual revenue collected through February. The majority of the increase in this category is for building permit and building plan check revenues ($150,000) and solid waste impact fees received from CR&R ($100,000). The revenue increase for building permit and building plan check revenues is offset by an expenditure increase of $76,035 for additional contracted services for building inspections and building plan check services.
Fines and Forfeitures (2% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of fines charged to individuals for violating State law and the City’s Municipal Code. An adjustment is proposed to increase these revenues by $189,000 for parking citation and administrative citation revenues. In Fall 2024, the City implemented the overnight 5 parking enforcement program contracted with SP Plus. As a result, the City’s average parking citation revenue increased by more than $20,000 per month. The total parking citation revenue increase of $180,000 is offset by an expenditure increase of $150,000 to fund parking enforcement contracted services and increased parking citation payment processing costs. Similarly, the increase in administrative citation revenues of $9,000 is partially offset by an expenditure increase of $3,000 for contracted services for processing administrative citation payments.
Use of Money & Property (1% of General Fund revenues) – This category accounts for revenue generated from the investment of City funds and the renting of City properties. The City has contracted with Chandler Asset Management (Chandler) to provide investment portfolio management services since June 2022. The City’s investment portfolio, including its investment in the State’s Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) have continued to provide the City’s General Fund with significant interest income. Based on actual interest collected through February, an adjustment is included to increase the Fiscal Year 2024/25 revenue estimate for interest by $150,000.
Other Revenue (Less than 1% of General Fund revenues) – This category consists of revenues that do not meet the definition of the other revenue categories (fees, taxes, fines). The types of revenues in this category are primarily donations, loan repayments, and expense reimbursements. An adjustment is proposed to reduce revenues by $840 based on actual reimbursements.
Transfers In (2%) – An adjustment is proposed to increase this revenue by $11,839 to reflect additional assessment revenue available from the Fire Protective Services Tax Fund to reimburse the General Fund for fire protection services costs provided by the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA).

Revised Fiscal Year 2024/25 General Fund expenditures are increasing by $1.5 million.
The most significant increases are as follows:
• $226,035 in various contracted services related to increases in revenue estimates as previously discussed;
• $1,160,000 to fund litigation costs and a settlement payment for an outstanding claim;
• $135,000 to reflect the County of Orange’s share of the City’s parking citation revenue that was not included in the adopted budget; and, • $156,700 to reflect the General Fund’s share to fund general liability claim payments made during the current year.
In addition, adjustments are proposed to reduce expenditures funded by the General Fund Assigned Fund Balance by $258,860 to reflect budget savings from vacant limited term positions that will not be filled and savings from the recently completed Premier Park Renovation Project (Task Code# 2022-206). Attachment D summarizes the impact of these adjustments on the General Fund Assigned Fund Balance expenditures. These budget savings will be available for appropriation in the Fiscal Year 2025/26 budget. 7 Per Attachment F (page 1), the City’s General Fund reserves and available fund balance (“discretionary fund balance”) is estimated to be $34.6 million, 88% of Fiscal Year 2024/25 General Fund operating expenditures, by June 30, 2025, as shown in the table below.

Personnel Budget Change
The City was recently awarded a federal tobacco grant from the State of California for $199,710 that will partially fund a full-time Code Enforcement Officer position during the grant’s three-year period. Staff is requesting the City Council authorize an increase in the City’s current personnel staffing plan to add one limited-term full-time position. This position will not impact the City’s General Fund because 50% of the position will be funded by the federal tobacco grant program and the remaining 50% will be funded by the Cannabis Community Benefit Fees Fund (#107). The proposed budget adjustments in Attachment A include an expenditure increase of $30,750 in the Cannabis Community Benefit Fees Fund (#107) and $33,675 in the Other Grants Fund (#227) to reflect the funding for the position for 6 months in Fiscal Year 2024/25. (The position was filled in December 2024.)
Proposed Adjustments to Revenues and Expenditures in Other Funds Significant revenue and expenditure adjustments in other funds include the following:
• Public Benefit Fees Fund (#104) – An adjustment is proposed to increase revenues by $630,595, primarily to reflect the full repayment of the outstanding loan, including interest, received from Bonnani Development Company III, LLC.
As of March 13, 2025, the loan is paid in full.
• Cannabis Community Benefit Fees Fund (#107) – An adjustment is proposed to increase revenues by $246,970 to reflect estimated fees due based on approved agreements with the City’s four retail cannabis businesses. 8 • Gas Tax Fund (#211) – An adjustment is proposed to increase revenues by $96,675 to reflect updated revenue estimates received from the State in January.
In addition, an adjustment is proposed to reduce expenditures by $289,178 primarily due to project savings from the completed Fiscal Year 2022/23 Citywide Street Rehabilitation Project (2023-101).
• Other Grants Fund (#227) – An adjustment is proposed to increase revenues by $470,819, primarily to reflect the timing difference for reimbursements outstanding from project costs incurred in previous fiscal years that are either a) still outstanding (not paid) or b) were paid in Fiscal Year 2024/25. • Street Impact Fees Fund (#261) – An adjustment is proposed to reduce revenues by $116,000 to eliminate revenues expected during the current fiscal year (primarily from the Cloud House project).
• Traffic Signal Impact Fees Fund (#262) – An adjustment is proposed to reduce revenues by $25,750 to eliminate revenues expected during the current fiscal year (primarily from the Cloud House project).
• Community Center Impact Fees Fund (#263) – An adjustment is proposed to reduce revenues by $86,000 to eliminate revenues expected during the current fiscal year (primarily from the Cloud House project).
• Police Services Impact Fees Fund (#264) – An adjustment is proposed to reduce revenues by $77,400 to eliminate revenues expected during the current fiscal year (primarily from the Cloud House project).
• North Orange County Public Safety Collaborative Grant Fund (#271) – An adjustment is proposed to increase revenues by $100,000 to reflect additional grant funding the City received from the North Orange County Public Safety Collaborative in Fall 2024. These funds will be used to fund additional limitedterm Outreach Coordinators. The grant must be spent by June 30, 2026. Staff will be proposing a budget for these funds in the upcoming Fiscal Year 2025/26 budget process.
• Housing Authority Fund (#285) – Adjustments are proposed to increase expenditures by $76,070, primarily to add additional funding for litigation costs associated with the Tina Pacific affordable housing project. • Expendable Deposits Fund (#801) – Adjustments are proposed to increase revenue and expenditures by $112,505 and $90,942, respectively, based on actual deposits collected to fund City Attorney and other consulting costs for development projects.
• Park In-Lieu Fees Fund (#310) – An adjustment is proposed to reduce revenues by $615,000 based on actual activity to date.
9 • Sewer Maintenance Fund (#501) – An adjustment is proposed to increase revenues by $107,300, primarily to account for additional sewer user fees and investment income based on actual activity through February and prior year actual revenue. In addition, an adjustment is proposed to reduce expenditures by $969,870, primarily due to budget savings from the completed Sewer Master Plan Update Project (Task Code #2022-301) and an updated cost estimate for the Fiscal Year 2024/25 Annual Sewer Rehabilitation Project (Task Code# 2025- 301).
• Liability/Risk Management Fund (#603) – An adjustment is proposed to increase expenditures by $168,000 to provide additional funding for general liability claims. As of February, the City has paid over $180,000 for general liability claims. This expenditure increase is offset by additional revenue from interest and reimbursements from other City Funds. (The total impact of this cost increase to the General Fund is $156,700.
Proposed Adjustments to the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) (Attachment E) The Fiscal Year 2024/25 CIP budget includes $8.1 million from the Fiscal Year 2024/25 Adopted Budget; $14.1 million in carryover funding from Fiscal Year 2023/24, and $582,430 in additional appropriations approved by City Council since July 1, 2024, for a total amended budget of $22.8 million. Adjustments are proposed to reduce the total CIP budget by $1.4 million to reflect budget savings from completed projects and to adjust the estimate for the Fiscal Year 2024/25 Annual Sewer Rehabilitation Project (Task Code# 2025-301).
In addition, an adjustment is proposed to transfer $715,507 of Measure M funding from the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Citywide Street Rehabilitation Project (Task Code# 2024-101) to the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Citywide Alley Resurfacing Project (Task Code #2025-107).
The City Council awarded the contract for this project on January 28, 2025.
