• Intentionally using a City Technology Resource to annoy, harass, terrify, intimidate, threaten, offend or bother another person by conveying obscene language, pictures, or other materials or threats of bodily harm to the recipient or the recipient's immediate family; • Intentionally using any City Technology Resource to contact another person repeatedly with the intent to annoy, harass, or bother, regardless of whether any actual message is communicated, and/or where no purpose of legitimate communication exists, and where the recipient has expressed a desire for the communication to cease; • Intentionally using any City Technology Resource to contact another person repeatedly regarding a matter for which one does not have a legal right to communicate, once the recipient has provided reasonable notice that he or she desires such communication to cease (such as debt collection); or
• Intentionally using any City Technology Resource to invade the privacy, academic or otherwise, of another or the threatened invasion of the privacy of another.

The display of offensive material in any publicly accessible area is likely to violate City harassment policies. There are materials available on the Internet and elsewhere that some members of the City will find offensive. One example is sexually explicit graphics. The City can restrict the availability of such material if it considers its display in a publicly accessible area to be inappropriate. Public display includes, but is not limited to, publicly accessible computer screens and printers.

4.1.3.7 Wasting Technology Resources

4.1.3.8 Game Playing

4.1.3.9 Commercial Use
One role of ITSS is to educate Users about proper usage of City Technology Resources. Every effort will be made to help Users understand how to use City Technology Resources properly.

It is inappropriate to deliberately perform any act that will impair the operation of any part of the City Technology Resources or deny access by legitimate Users to any part of them. This includes, but is not limited to, wasting resources, tampering with components or reducing the operational readiness of the City Technology Resources.

Wastefulness includes, but is not limited to, passing chain letters, willful generation of large volumes of unnecessary printed output or disk space, willful creation of unnecessary multiple jobs or processes, or willful creation of heavy network traffic. In particular, the practice of willfully using City Technology Resources for the establishment of frivolous and unnecessary chains of communication is an inappropriate waste of resources.

The sending of random mailings (for example, "junk mail") is not permitted. It is poor etiquette at best, and potentially harassment, to send unwanted mail messages to strangers deliberately. Recipients who find junk mail objectionable should mark as junk or delete. If the junk mail continues, the recipient should contact ITSS helpdesk.

The City Technology Resources are not to be used for recreational or competitive game playing. The intention of this policy is to prohibit game playing with programs and other software that may adversely impact others, violate other provisions of this Policy or damage City ability to process City Business transactions promptly.

City Technology Resources are provided for the support of the City's mission.

Except where expressly permitted, it is inappropriate to use City Technology Resources for:

1. Commercial gain or placing a third party in a position of commercial advantage;

2. Any non -City related activity, including non -company related communications; and

3. Commercial advertising or sponsorship except where such advertising or sponsorship is clearly related to or supports the City's mission or the service being provided.

4.1.3.10 Use for Personal Business
City Technology Resources may not be used in connection with compensated outside work or for the benefit of organizations not related to the City, except where expressly permitted.

4.2 Appropriate Use of Electronic Communications
City Technology Resources are limited to use for City Business. All Electronic Communications transmitted over or by means of any City Technology Resource shall be limited to those which involve City functions, activities or User Technology Resources Policy Page 11 of 21

4.2.1 Introduction

4.2.2 Scope
other business, or that contain information essential to its officials, employees and consultants for the accomplishment of City -related tasks.

Electronic Communications access, including Internet and Intranet access, is provided to authorized Users as a communication tool for appropriate internal and external City Business. Implementation of this Policy and its directives are essential to protecting vital City resources and interests. Accordingly, City Policies including, but not limited to, those addressing copyright, confidentiality, harassment and compliance with equal employment laws; applicable federal, state and local laws; and the corporate code of conduct govern use of any Electronic Communications access.

All Users who use Electronic Communications are expected to conduct their use with the same integrity as in face-to-face or telephonic business operations. Any use perceived to be illegal, harassing, and offensive or in violation of other City Policies may be the basis for disciplinary action up to and including termination for employees and/or loss of use or legal action for all Users.

This Policy applies to all Users. Users must be aware of the following restrictions that have been placed on use of Electronic Communications:

Electronic Communications on City Technology Resources are intended for City -related business purposes with other limited incidental uses. All Electronic Communications on city Technology Resources are the property of the City, just as are hard copies of City records. The City reserves the right to retrieve and make proper and lawful use and/or disclosure of any and all Electronic Communications transmitted through any City Technology Resource.
• Electronic Communications determined to be Public Records shall be retained in electronic folders or, as described above, in hard copy.

Such Electronic Communications shall be retained for the period described in the City's Records Retention Schedule or expiration of a Litigation Hold or resolution of a Public Records Act Request.

4.2.3 Appropriate Use and Responsibility of Users
City guidelines and standards for appropriate and responsible use of Electronic Communications are derived directly from the same standards of common sense and decency that apply to the use of any City Technology Resource. All usage inconsistent with these objectives is considered inappropriate use.

All Users must recognize and comply with standards and guidelines for the appropriate use of Electronic Communications.

1. No Electronic Communications should be unethical, be perceived to be a conflict of interest with the City's interests, or be inconsistent with City Policies.

User Technology Resources Policy Page 12 of 21

2. Users must take particular care not to disseminate confidential City information or personal information to unauthorized users. Users should refrain from leaving messages containing confidential or personal information on answering machines or voice -mail systems.

3. Electronic Communications must be able to withstand scrutiny without causing embarrassment to the City, its employees or citizens. Because Electronic Communications deleted by a User may still be present, either in another person's mailbox, or on a file server or back-up file of a User. Care must be taken to ensure the accuracy and
professionalism of all Electronic Communications.

4. Users must not send messages prohibited or restricted by government security laws or regulations. Emailing copies of documents in violation of copyright laws or licensing agreements is also prohibited.

5. Users should consider Electronic Communications to be the electronic equivalent of a postcard. Users must recognize their responsibility for the content, dissemination and management of the messages they send. Electronic Communications should:
• Be courteous and polite;
• Be consistent with City standards of conduct;
• Protect others' right to privacy and confidentiality; and • Contain an accurate, appropriate and informative signature.

6. Users should secure access to their email and voice mailboxes through the use of passwords and other security devices and should not leave the system on and available to unauthorized users.

7. Users may not reveal any confidential internal email names and passwords of the City's email or voicemail users to anyone including other Users or people who request such information over the telephone and seem to have a legitimate reason for asking. All such requests must be referred to the Records Department.

8. City policy prohibits use of profanity, obscenities, or derogatory remarks in Electronic Communications referencing other individuals.

Such remarks, even when made in jest, may create legal problems.

9. Users are prohibited from sending or forwarding any Electronic Communications that a reasonable person would consider to be defamatory, harassing or explicitly sexual. Users are also prohibited from sending or forwarding Electronic Communications via City Technology Resources that would be likely to offend on the basis of race, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, religion, political beliefs, disability or other protected characteristics.

10. Users must not use an Electronic Communication account assigned to another individual either to send or receive messages. If there is need to access another's Electronic Communications, such as while the other person is out ill, message forwarding and other resources must instead be used. Contact ITSS Director and/or Human Resource Director to arrange such access.

User Technology Resources Policy Page 13 of 21

11. Users must not disclose credit card numbers, passwords, research and development information, and other sensitive data via any Electronic Communication.

12. Users must not unnecessarily or frivolously overload the Electronic Communications system including, but not limited to, spamming and junk mailing.

13. City Electronic Communications may not be used for commercial purposes unless authorized by City Manager in writing in advance.

14. Internal telephone books must not be distributed to third parties without specific authorization of a Department Manager.

4.2.4 Confidentiality and Security
Users should be aware that Electronic Communications are not a confidential means of communication. The City cannot guarantee that Electronic Communications will be private. Users should be aware that Electronic Communications could, depending on the technology, be forwarded, intercepted, printed, and stored by others. Users should also be aware that, once Electronic Communications are transmitted, they might be altered.

Deleting an Electronic Communication from an individual workstation will not eliminate it from the various systems it has been transmitted across.

Therefore, Users should have no personal expectation that their Electronic Communications using City Technology Resources are private.

The City reserves the right to review all Electronic Communications stored or transmitted on City Technology Resources. Although, the City does not intend to monitor the contents of Electronic Communications routinely, Users should expect that System Administrators with or without the permission of the User might access Electronic Communications. However, no other individuals may monitor or access Electronic Communications of another User unless proxy rights have been delegated by the System Administrators and approved by ITSS Director and/or Human Resource Director.

All Users must accept and abide by management directives to ensure information security, including, but not limited to:

Users must verify the integrity of their password and abide by City Policy on password security (see section on Password Requirements); • Users are prohibited from sending confidential material through any Electronic Communications system unless it is marked confidential or otherwise protected;
• Users must take extreme care that confidential information be redirected only where there is a need and with the permission of the originator, where possible;
• Users should recognize that Electronic Communications can be forged.

Therefore, if an Electronic Communication is suspect, Users must verify its authenticity via telephone, or personally; and • It is recommended that personal confidential material not be stored on or sent through Electronic Communications using City Technology Resources.

User Technology Resources Policy Page 14 of 21

Unauthorized access of Electronic Communications is a violation of the City Policy and grounds for potential employee discipline or other repercussions for both employees and other Users.

4.3 Password Requirements
It is City policy that information must be protected in a manner commensurate with its sensitivity, value and criticality. To ensure the security of the City Technology Resources, all authorized users must be uniquely identified and authenticated before being granted access to Electronic Communications.

User identification and authentication will be authorized through the use of User identification (User ID) unique to each User. To insure the security of the City Technology Resources, such access must be authorized, logged and periodically reviewed.

Identification Password Management
Passwords are a primary defense mechanism on many City Technology Resources. Careful selection of passwords improves security. Users are responsible for the robustness and maintenance of their own passwords.

Accordingly, the following standards for password use shall apply:
• Passwords must be used where possible;
• Passwords and User IDs must be unique to each authorized User and must never be shared with anyone else;
• Passwords must not be easily associated with a particular User; ■ Passwords must be memorized and never written down with other account information such as an account name;
• Passwords must not be stored in readable form in batch files, automatic log -in scripts, software macros, terminal function keys, in City Technology Resources without access control, or in other locations where unauthorized persons might discover them; • Passwords must be changed every 90 days, or immediately if compromised or suspected of compromise;
• To prevent the compromise of multiple systems, Users must employ different passwords on each of the systems to which they have been granted access;
• The display and printing of passwords must be masked, suppressed, or otherwise obscured so that unauthorized parties will not be able to observe or subsequently recover them;
• Passwords must consist of a minimum of eight alphanumeric characters one of which is upper case and a special character. • Any User who suspects that a password has been compromised must report it to ITSS immediately through the IT Help Desk.

City management reserves the right to revoke the privileges of any User at any time. Conduct that interferes with the normal and proper operation of City Technology Resources, which adversely affects the ability of others to use User Technology Resources Policy Page 15 of 21

these City Technology Resources, or which is harmful or offensive to others, will not be permitted.

4.3.1 Password Standards
The following are standards for password construction:
• Passwords must never be related to a User's job or personal life.

Details such as spouse's name, license plate, social security number, and birthday must not be used unless accompanied by additional unrelated characters;
• Passwords must not be the same as User IDs or given name; • Users must not construct passwords that are identical or substantially similar to passwords that Users had previously employed; • Must never use the default password for any software or hardware product;
• "Blank" passwords are prohibited;
• Passwords must never be derived from User's association with the City of Temecula; and
• Passwords must never consist of a word from a dictionary. Most basic cracking programs contain over 120,000 words, and plenty of variations.
• Users are encouraged to have a password to include numbers and mixed case letters.

4.4 Appropriate Use of City Technology Resources
City Technology Resources offer extensive capabilities, but also expose risks and threats. All Users are expected to be familiar with and to comply with this Policy.

1. City Technology Resources should not be used for personal purposes.

Although incidental use of City Technology Resources for personal use is permissible, use of City Technology Resources for these types of activities consumes City Technology Resources and could potentially result in poor technology performance or even system failure.

2. Any use perceived to be illegal, harassing, offensive, in violation of other City Policies, or any other uses that would reflect adversely on the City can be the basis for disciplinary action up to and including termination for employees and other repercussions including legal action for all Users, including employees. Users are expected to conduct their use of City Technology Resources with the same integrity as in face-to-face or telephonic business operations.

User Technology Resources Policy Page 16 of 21

4.4.1 Public Representations

4.4.2 Users must not publicly disclose City internal information via the City Technology Resources that may adversely affect City relations or public image. Care must be taken to properly structure comments and questions posted to social media, mailing lists, public news groups, and related public postings.

4.4.3 Downloading

4.4.4 Contacts
Software should not be downloaded without approval of ITSS. All software used on City Technology Resources can only be installed by ITSS, following all licensing agreements and procedures. All software downloaded from non - City sources must be screened with virus detection software prior to being installed by ITSS and may require testing on a stand-alone (not networked), non -production machine.

Contacts made over the Internet should not be trusted with City information unless reasonable steps have been taken to ensure the legitimacy of the contacts. This applies to the release of any City internal information.

4.4.5 Information Security

4.5 Software Security

4.6 Security

4.6.1 Right to Examine

4.6.2 Privacy
Login passwords, User IDs and other parameters that can be used to gain access to City Technology Resources, is confidential information and must not be sent over any Technology Resource in readable form. This information must not be posted on electronic bulletin boards, listed in telephone directories, placed on business cards, or otherwise made available to third parties without the advance written permission of the ITSS Director.

Telephone numbers, fax numbers, and email addresses of a User may be disclosed by the User.

The City strongly supports strict adherence to software vendors' license agreements. Adherence to these agreements is subject to random audits by these vendors or the Software Publishers Association (SPA). When City Technology Resources are employed, copying of software in a manner that is not consistent with the vendor's license is strictly forbidden. Users must not use any externally provided software from a vendor other than those approved by ITSS.

At any time and without prior notice, City management reserves the right to examine Electronic Communications including personal Electronic Communications, web browser cache files, web browser bookmarks, and other information stored on or passing through City Technology Resources.

Such management access assures compliance with internal policies, assists with internal investigations, and assists with the management of City Technology Resources. Every attempt will be made to ensure that the User's privacy is respected.

Users using City Technology Resources should realize that their communications are not automatically protected from viewing by third parties User Technology Resources Policy Page 17 of 21

Unless encryption is used, Users should not send information over the Internet if they consider it to be private.

4.7 Reporting Security Problems

4.8 Hardware Security
It is the responsibility of all Users to report any known or suspected breach of security, such as passwords or other system access control mechanisms to the ITSS Department.

The ITSS Director must be notified immediately when:

1. Sensitive or confidential City information is lost, disclosed to unauthorized parties, or suspected of being lost or disclosed to unauthorized parties;

2. Unauthorized use of City Technology Resources has taken place, or is suspected of taking place;

3. Passwords or other system access control mechanisms are lost, stolen, or disclosed, or are suspected of being lost, stolen, or disclosed; or

4. There is unusual system behavior such as missing files, frequent system crashes and misrouted messages, as these types of system behavior may be related to virus infections or other security problems and must be promptly reported and investigated.

To ensure that computer systems are used in an effective and productive way, City Technology Resource hardware must be physically secured and the integrity of operating systems maintained.

1. On City Technology Resources, Users must never change operating system configurations, upgrade existing operating systems, or install new operating systems. If such changes are required Users should contact ITSS and ITSS administrators will perform them.

2. Users must not bring their own computers, computer peripherals, or computer software into City facilities without prior written authorization from their Department Head. Personal computers must be labeled clearly with the name of the owner. Desktop PCs, laptops, mobile devices, and City Technology Resources must not leave City offices unless authorized in writing by a department manager.

Printers used to produce sensitive and confidential information should be monitored and sensitive files must be overwritten on fixed disks, tapes, or cartridges.
5 Appropriate Use of Specific City Technology Resources: City -Issued Cellular Phones and Radios Technology can significantly enhance local service delivery. Cellular telephones and radios are often practical and economical for safety services and emergency communications, and can enhance productivity. In all cases, the issuance of cellular phones or radios to Users is a privilege, not a right or an entitlement. Failure to abide by the procedures set forth in this Policy may result in the loss of use of the cellular phones or radios and in certain circumstances, may result in possible disciplinary action for employees.

5.1 Introduction
User Technology Resources Policy Page 18 of 21

It is the intent of the City to provide each Department with effective communication devices, within the constraints of available resources. The City recognizes the need of City -owned cellular telephones and radios, and by this Policy establishes procedures for their authorization, deployment, and use in order to contain costs, ensure Departmental accountability, personal responsibility, and prevent improper use. It is important that each User assume personal responsibility for the prudent use of City -owned communication devices.

5.2 Appropriate Use and Responsibility of Users

5.3 Inappropriate Use
City -owned cellular phones or radios are to be viewed as an asset provided to further assist Users in effectively completing their areas of responsibility for the City. The issuance of such communication equipment is also to be considered a vital resource in the event of an emergency. It is a goal, to ensure that City vehicles are configured with emergency (800 MHz) radios for two-way communications.

Users are responsible for maintaining adequate physical protection of the communication equipment issued to them by the City. Users shall immediately notify their Department Head or designee, who in turn shall notify the ITSS Director, if any City -owned cellular phone or radio is damaged, lost or stolen.

Cellular phone and radio logs are Public Records.

Any communication equipment purchased by the City is owned by the City and must be returned to the City when the User separates from service or the need of such communication equipment no longer exists.

No User shall record any telephone call, without the knowledge and consent of all parties to the call.

The City reserves the right to terminate cellular service privileges of any User for any reason.

City issued communication equipment are not considered a User's personal device. California law prohibits drivers from using a cellular phone while operating a vehicle without a hands -free device, e.g. wired headset (ear buds), speaker, or Bluetooth headset. It is City policy to comply with California law when using a City -owned cellular phone while operating in any vehicle. The ITSS Department provides wired headsets (ear buds) for all City -owned cellular phones. In order to further define inappropriate use, the following list is provided. Prohibited uses of cellular phones and radios include, but are not limited to:
■ Any illegal use or activity
■ Threats
■ Slander/Libel
■ Defamation
■ Obscene, suggestive or offensive messages or
communications
■ Political endorsements or activities
User Technology Resources Policy Page 19 of 21

6 Proximity Keys
Internal entrance to City Hall areas is extended to employees by the City.

Proximity keys are issued to all Regular, Part -Time, Temporary, Project Employees, and Interns. Interns' access will be automatically disabled every 30 days unless otherwise noted by related department manager.

The City prohibits the sharing of proximity keys.

Users are required to notify ITSS immediately if proximity keys or readers are lost, damaged or stolen.
7 Technology Resource Check Out
The City understands the need occasionally to check out technology resources for work related issues. City Technology Resources such as:
laptops, projectors and digital cameras are available for check out through the ITSS Department. Users in need of the equipment must have proper approval from department manager. A request in advance for the use of such City Technology Resource is necessary. If the City Technology Resource is available, Users must sign for receiving and return of any City Technology Resource on loan.

Users are responsible for maintaining adequate physical protection of the City Technology Resource issued to them by the City. Users shall also immediately notify their department head or designee, who in turn shall notify the ITSS Director, if any City -owned communications equipment is damaged, lost or stolen.
8 Employee Computer Purchase Program
The City has incorporated a program that allows employees to borrow, at no interest, up to $2,000 to purchase personal computer/supplies with a loan repayment up to 24-months. This program is available for full-time and part-time City employees. For more information, please visit SharePoint or the ITSS Department.
9 User Use of Technology Resources Not Owned and/or Controlled by City Users should not store Electronic Communications that involve City Business on any Technology Resources that are not owned, issued and/or controlled by the City. When Users are using Technology Resources that are not owned, issued and/or controlled by the City to conduct City Business, Users should be aware and must acknowledge and agree that any Electronic Communication that is stored or transmitted through such Technology Resource is considered a Public Record and is subject to the same terms as any Electronic Communication stored or transmitted on City Technology Resources.

Should the City receive a Public Records Request, or otherwise require access to Electronic Communications related to City Business stored or transmitted on or by personal or commercial Technology Resources, the User shall provide access to such Electronic Communications immediately upon request of the City. Additionally, User shall not delete any Electronic Records related to City Business prior to the expiration of the period described in the City's Records Retention Schedule or expiration of a Litigation Hold or resolution of a Public Records Act Request. The City may require that a User execute an affidavit confirming that the User has thoroughly searched its personal or commercial Technology Resource and has provided all responsive Electronic Communications.

Conflict of Interest Laws
Policy No.

TBD
Approved:

October 24, 2023
Revised:

N/A
PURPOSE:

The purpose of this City Council policy is to provide general guidance and raise awareness of potential conflicts of interest that may arise periodically in the course of public service by Council Members. Council Members are encouraged to seek legal advice from the City Attorney for specific issues that may arise.

POLICY:

The policy of the City Council with respect to the matter listed in the above -referenced title is as follows:

Conflict of Interest Laws
The Political Reform Act, set forth in Government Code Sections 81000 to 91014, regulates conflicts of interest through (1) disclosure and (2) prohibition of participation in the decision -making process. The Act requires Council Members to annually disclose all financial interests that may be affected by decisions made in their official capacity. This includes investments, real property, and income. Council Members must also disqualify themselves from making and/or participating in making any governmental decision that will have a foreseeable material financial affect on any financial interest of the Council Member or certain family members.

When Council Members must disqualify themselves due to a financial interest, they are prohibited not only from "making" a decision but also from "participating" in the decision. Generally, an official makes a decision when the Council Member votes on a matter, appoints a person, obligates or commits the City to any course of action, or enters into any contract on behalf of the City. An official participates in making a decision when the official negotiates on behalf of the City, or advises or makes recommendations to the decision maker, either directly or without significant intervening substantive review.

The City Attorney prepares an annual Summary of the Conflict of Interest Laws Manual that is attached as Appendix 3 in the City Council Protocol Manual.

Conflict of Interest Code. The Political Reform Act requires state and local government agencies to review and adopt conflict of interest codes biannually. The City of Temecula adopts its Conflict of Interest Code in even -numbered years. The City's Conflict of Interest Code adopts the State Political Reform Act and designates certain City officials other than the Council who are subject the conflict of interest laws. The Code is attached as Exhibit A.

Statements of Economic Interest
A financial disclosure form (Statement of Economic Interest - Form 700) must be filed with the City Clerk no later than April 1 of each year for financial interests pertaining to the preceding calendar year. The April 1 deadline may be adjusted by the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) for holidays and/or weekends. Council Members must also file a statement within 30 days of assuming office or leaving office.

Filers shall file said statement electronically through NetFile, the City's certified electronic filing system.

Advice Regarding Conflicts of Interest
A Council Member who is uncertain as to whether they have a conflict of interest is encouraged to seek clarification from the City Attorney prior to the Council Meeting at which the matter will be discussed.

The City Attorney or the official may also request a formal opinion from the FPPC.

10/19/23, 11:48 AM Code of Ethics & Values I City of Santa Clara Code of Ethics & Values
Santa Clara's Code of Ethics & Values, adopted by the City Council in March of 20oo and modified by Council in August of 2001, is designed to provide clear, positive statements of ethical behavior reflecting the core values of the community. The Code includes practical strategies for addressing ethical questions and a useful framework for decision -making and handling the day-to-day operations of the municipality.

The current Code of Ethics & Values was developed in 1999 by a Committee composed of three elected officials, nine City commissioners, two community members, the City Manager and the City Attorney. A previous Code was adopted in the 196os and periodically updated, but the Committee took a fresh approach by working with the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University to create a new Code of Ethics & Values for the City that would better reflect the issues and concerns of today's complex and diverse society.

LONG RANGE PLANNING
General Plan Update: The Long Range Planning Division has developed a four -phase, multi -year process to update the General Plan. Phase I is complete and included updates to Housing and Public Safety Elements.

Phase I also included an update to the City's Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) Guidelines to analyze Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Phase II is in process and includes an update to the Quality of Life Master Plan (QLMP), reconciling the City's GIS Maps on a parcel by parcel basis, a baseline EIR analysis of the City's Circulation Element, and developing a Complete Streets

Policy document. Phase III will include a Fiscal Land Use Study to analyze the City's remaining development capacity and market absorption potential for residential, commercial, and industrial development. The final phase is to work with a General Plan Advisory Committee to update to the General Plan and EIR over an 18 to 24-month timeframe. (PETERS) Quality of Life Master Plan Update: On April 27, 2021, the City Council established a Blue Ribbon Committee (BRC) to update the Quality of Life Master Plan (QLMP). The QLMP identifies the City's six core values, including: 1) Healthy and Livable City; 2) Economic Prosperity; 3) Safe and Prepared Community; 4) Sustainable City; 5) Transportation Mobility and Connectivity; and 6) Accountable and Responsive City Government. Projects and programs proposed in the City's Annual Operating Budget and Capital Improvements Program must be consistent with the City's Core Values. Performance measures (indicators) are measured annually to track progress and the completion of goals and objectives. The last BRC meeting was held on July 21, 2022. The Preliminary Draft document was presented to all the Commissions in October and November. The Final Draft QLMP was approved by the City Council on November 15, 2022. The QLMP will serve as the foundation for the General plan update. The final document is available online and hard copies have been distributed to the City Council, City Staff, Boards, and Commissions. (PETERS)
QLMP Website for Measuring Progress (Dashboard): As part of the Quality of Life Master Plan Update, Planning staff is working with a consultant, MIG, and the IT Department to develop a website for the QLMP.

The intent of the website is to provide a "dashboard" to display the seven Core Values and eventually incorporate the goals and policies of the updated General Plan. The website will also be used to measure the city's progress towards achieving the Citizen's 20-Year Priorities identified in the QLMP. The dashboard will be displayed on a third -party website and will incorporate links and useful indicators intended for user- friendly navigation. The website is scheduled to launch in October 2023. (GARCIA) Uptown Temecula Specific Plan Amendment (LR19-1458): An amendment to the Uptown Specific Plan to implement the following changes: modify graphics to reflect consistency with text regarding allowable frontage types, amend street cross sections (graphics), amend plant pallet and silva cell requirements for street trees, implement a street naming convention, amend streetlight spacing and other typographical errors.

Staff has reached out to Spurlock Consulting for assistance in updating the Sidewalk and Streetscape Standards and is awaiting a scope of work and timeline. Public Works is drafting new street sections for the Specific Plan. Spurlock Consulting has provided a scope of work for the proposed changes to the streetscape and sidewalk standards and staff has executed the agreement for services and will begin updating the graphics as requested. Planning and Traffic Engineering have been working on updated street cross sections and a map to identify cross section placements. (COLLINS) Transportation Discovery and Existing Conditions Analysis (LR20-1071): The City received an SB 2 Grant from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to prepare an internal document for staff to identify potential transportation focused areas as part of Phase 2 of our General Plan Update process and timeline. The City has retained Fehr & Peers (F&P) Transportation Consultants to document existing transportation conditions in the City, provide benchmarking information on how transportation facilities, transportation use and policies compares to other peer agencies (through benchmarking) and will evaluate how much of the current Circulation Element has been implemented. Staff worked with F&P to identify methodology, thresholds, and mitigation to address VMT for the California Environmental Quality Act evaluation, which the City Council adopted in May 2020. On July 19, 2021, Staff has a scheduled internal meeting with Fehr & Peers, they present to staff the Data Collection Status.

Currently, the consultant is developing the three scenario runs to be reviewed by staff prior to conducting a full model run. (PETERS)
Old Town Parklets (LR22-1112): The previous Old Town Outdoor Dining Program was a project intended to make the Temporary Expanded Dining/Retail Program (TED) permanent that was sparked by the COVID- 19 pandemic restrictions. However, due to the potential barriers that came to light such as loss of parking, ADA requirements, outside agency fees and more, the decision was made by City Council and staff to end the outdoor dining program when the license agreements expired on July 1, 2022. With that, other outdoor dining amenities were explored for Old Town which led to the Old Town Parklet Project. Parklets are the conversion of parking spaces on urban streets into a small public `park' or enclosed seating area. The intent of the Parklet Project is to provide an additional amenity to the community and promote an increase in pedestrian activity and convenience. Staff is working with a consultant, Placeworks, to design and implement the Old Town Parklets. Locations and design themes will be determined throughout the process with direction from the Old Town Steering Subcommittee. The consultant is currently working on parklet designs to present at a community workshop that will be held on October 11th in the Conference Center. (GARCIA)

Dear Brenden:

Our neighborhood is not looking forward to this development happening and have been trying to do all we can to stop or delay it. We patiently attend the public hearings to see if we can understand an hour of discussions about overlays, sub area boundaries, and an abstract map of the project that does not include street names of the neighborhood that will be totally changed forever.

It is difficult to know if the city council or city project planners are neutral on this project.

But it is clear as day that if it happens there will be lower property values, more traffic and traffic signals and the loss of an ecosystem.

There are hoops everyone must jump through and if I were younger I would make hundreds of fliers, have a placard and sunscreen and be outside of Linfield school and also the TVHS to enlist the assistance of the youth who this will affect the most. The loss of this small parcel of open space that they enjoy hiking in, seeing wildlife live in and and seeing the mountains and sky views on their daily journeys will be gone for future generations. I am certain they do not want more of a concrete jungle and traffic to navigate during their student years.

If this city was Laguna Beach or San Clemente we might have a chance to suggest a land purchase to prevent more development from destroying the quiet neighborhood that we all enjoy living in. Thus far it seems that Linfield will not alter their desire to develop. Even leaving the land that is visible from the street untouched would be some improvement.

Yes Linfield is a business and that is the nature of capitalism to make a profit. I have suggested having a telethon to raise the money they need. It would be a huge learning experience for the students and the community to engage and participate in. Win win for all.

Thank you taking the time to jump through hoops.

I hope the best team wins or a super compromise is discovered to preserve the quiet life everyone now enjoys. California wants 30% of land to be open space and this little parcel is perfect for that .

Sincerely,
Linda Koski

Subject: PUBLIC HEARING CASE #PA23-0260
Rancho Vista Road is the southern-most border of the quiet and pleasant community of Rancho Vista/Villa Avanti homes. This is a community where children are commonly seen playing. Many people take daily walks often with their dogs within the low traffic streets of Rancho Vista/Villa Avanti homes.

Rancho Vista Road is also the northern-most border of the proposed Linfield Christian School development project PA23-0260.

There is a high number of people who currently walk along Rancho Vista and a high number of students who walk or ride their bikes to and from Temecula Valley High School on Rancho Vista Road. Rancho Vista Road is a two-lane street which currently experiences bumper-to- bumper traffic during the school year. Increasing the traffic flow on an already congested Rancho Vista Road will without a doubt force much of that traffic to shortcut through our neighborhoods.

The area proposed is for the development of high-density `Senior' housing and commercial construction. This area would better be utilized as an open space park area or for single-family home residential. Even if it were medium-density residential development, commercial businesses should not be built adjacent to the surrounding residential areas. Three existing commercial centers already each within 1/2 mile of this proposed project (one at Rancho California and Margarita, one at Rancho California and Meadows, and another at Pauba Road

and Margarita). There is no need for another commercial center which would have such a negative impact within residential family neighborhoods.

This is a safety and quality of life issue for the families in neighborhoods within our wonderful city.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely
Steve Palmer

Hello Scott:

I wonder why another meeting is happening if nothing has changed.

Also, I do not understand what is meant by this: And frankly this is is the kind of terminology used at the meetings that makes the whole project ambiguous and vague.
"the acreage for development is building redistributed to existing and new Planning Areas. " Is this growing the project inch by inch?
I wanted to inform you of this little event. On September 29 at 7ish am a contraption was put on Rancho Vista on side of road near bottom of Goleta and it was taken away about 4 hours later by KWC Engineering truck.. ( traffic counter I would imagine.) Also at the same 7ish am time as I came home from my walk the same truck was at Rancho Vista and Via El Greco and put another contraption for only a minute on opposite side of street and then took it away. ( traffic signal placement measuring?) Do you have any information on what was happening with that equipment and engineering firm? Perhaps Linfield may be starting their traffic study and our fears of more lanes, signals and the entrance off Rancho Vista will be the nightmare we imagine?
A suggestion for the next meeting. If a satellite view was provided for your overhead presentation it might be more helpful to the neighborhood attendees. ( instead of the abstract map Linfield uses on the public hearing

flier that does not list any streets on it only: Pauba, TVHS, Ranch Vista, and Green Tree Road as their broad boundaries for the construction to come. ) Those of us on El Greco, Goleta, Madera, Pacheco and others will be greatly impacted by the project hence the objection to it.

Finally, since the neighborhood does not want the project to proceed and ruin our property values, destroy the animal habitat, create more traffic for our neighborhood and Temecula as a whole and the school children, but Linfield wants to begin their development to obtain some funds and profit for their school, I do not see how this can have a resolution that will protect the homeowners. I want to suggest to Linfield to step back , become altruistic and leave the open space alone. They might hold some telethons for fund raising and for the more beautiful future of the children leave the open space alone. That would be the solution for the homeowners.

I hope this letter can be part of the record for the upcoming meeting or tell me how to make that happen.

Thanks for your assistance in this matter.

Sincerely,
Linda Koski

Linda,
Thank you for reaching out. The project that is going to City Council is the exact same, with no changes, that went to Planning Commission next month. Given that the project involves an Amendment to a Planned Development Overlay it is required to go to City Council.

Overall, the total developable acres does not change, the acreage for development is building redistributed to existing and new Planning Areas.

Hi Scott,
Last night on dog walk I saw 2 public hearing signs on the Rancho Vista fence. I did not want to walk in the brush and burrs to read it so went to city site to see if anything new listed which there was not. Is there another public hearing coming up soon for Linfield project.? Second question: from the last public hearing meeting, I heard that Linfield was reducing their acreage to develop by 14 acres. Another person at meeting thought she heard that Linfield was reducing the total acreage of development to 14 acres. So you have that info? Also thanks for being on top of this you had the most information at that meeting.
sincerely.

Hi Scott, Brenden, and Kate,
I hope this message finds you well.

I'd like to formally notify you all of our strong objection to the proposed development outside our beautiful community.

Not only would the project be a huge eye sore, but it will lower property values,create additional traffic issues to an already busy road. It will destroy an ecosystem for the wildlife that calls that beautiful piece of land home, and it would completely abolish the little bit of open space this area of Temecula has left. Part of the draw to living in a place like this is to have a little bit of space and nature, something that is so hard to find in California. If this development is built we'll be extremely disappointed. One of the things we love about this neighborhood is walking our two kids out to the top of the hill and looking out over the horizon to a big wide-open field, spotting wildlife etc.This project will strip that away from our family and others and I strongly urge you to consider the people that call this place home and put a stop to this monstrosity of a project.

Best regards,
Melanie and Chase Blakney

Subject: Proposed Development Senior Housing & Commercial along Rancho Vista Rd.

CAUTION:This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

I live in the Villa Avanti housing section across from the proposed development for Senior Housing and Commercial. I own my home and have lived here 24+ years. I have watched the traffic along Rancho Vista continually worsen over the years. The worst being when you allowed the speed limit to go from 45 to 50. Every time I leave my home, I pray I make it safely when pulling out onto Rancho Vista, as curves in the road cause blind areas. In spite of the caution I use, I have often come close to being hit as drivers far exceed the 50 MPH limit. Adding more cars to this 2 lane road (one direction each way), is only going to worsen the issue as well. Rancho Vista runs in front of Temecula Valley High School - where hundreds of children cross daily. For their safety alone I would think the City Council would use discretion in increasing the number of cars that use this 2 lane road. There is nowhere to pull over on the south side if an emergency arose, as there is no shoulder. Adding more housing in this area is ludicrous and just plain unsafe, especially in a school zone and the middle of normal housing. I hope you will listen to the people who live here and have to drive in this area and not make a decision that impacts so many, lowers property values and destroys the homes for small wildlife living in this area. Use common sense for once and leave the little remaining open space as it is.

Thank you,
Kathleen L Casas
