During that time, if the Chief of Police’s Designee is given notice that a legal action has been instituted to reclaim the Personal Property, then the Personal Property shall continue to be held until that legal action is resolved.
C. If ownership is determined, the owner shall be required to pay the reasonable costs incurred by the City for impoundment and storage prior to the return of the Personal Property, unless a financial hardship waiver is submitted to the City by the owner on forms authorized by the City and such waiver is approved by the Chief of Police’s Designee.
12.46.090 Evidence In A Criminal Case
Notwithstanding Section 12.46.080 of this Chapter, where Personal Property is impounded for use as evidence in a criminal case, such Personal Property shall be held until the final disposition of any pending charges, including appeals, or the lapse of time for filing an appeal, unless a court orders otherwise, in accordance with California Penal Code section 1417 et sequentes.
12.46.100 Disposition After Holding Period
Upon the expiration of any holding period for received Personal Property required pursuant to this Chapter, any remaining Personal Property not claimed by or returned to the owner may be appropriated to the City upon order of the City Manager’s Designee that the Personal Property is needed for a public use. Any Personal Property not appropriated to the City may be sold at a public auction or disposed of in such a manner as deemed appropriate by the City Manager’s Designee. If Personal Property constitutes money, such money shall be deposited into the City's general fund to offset the cost of administering this Section.
Ordinance No. 1967
12.46.110 Enforcement
A. Any violation of this Chapter is hereby declared to be unlawful and a public nuisance.
B. Any person who engages in a violation of this Chapter shall be subject to the penalties and remedies provided by this Section.
C. Each person shall be deemed guilty of a separate offense for each and every day, or portion thereof, during which any violation of, or failure to comply with, any of the provisions of this Chapter is committed, continued, or permitted by such person, and each instance shall be deemed punishable.
D. The provisions of this Chapter shall not be construed as permitting conduct not proscribed herein and shall not affect the enforceability of any other applicable provisions of law.
E. The City may enforce any violation of this Chapter by any and all means available by law including, but not limited to, a restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction, or criminal or administrative enforcement.
F. These penalties and remedies are cumulative and in addition to any other penalties and remedies available to the City including, but not limited to, those provided in Chapter 1.20 of this Code.
G. Except as provided in Subsection (H) of this Section, no citation for a violation of Section 12.46.030 of this Code, whether criminal or administrative, shall be issued to any person unless, at the time in question, the Enforcement Official, in his or her reasonable discretion, is able to make an affirmative determination that there is a sleeping space practically available to such person in a shelter, based on the information known to the Enforcement Official at the time. In determining whether a sleeping space in a shelter is practically available to a person, the Enforcement Official shall consider the specific circumstances of the person and the specific policies and requirements of the shelter, including the following:
1. The means of transportation available to such person.
2. The distance between the homeless shelter and the location of the person.
3. The opening, closing, and check-in times of the homeless shelter.
4. Limitations on the amount of consecutive nights a person can stay at the shelter, or other similar requirements.
5. Any other circumstance of the person, or any policy or requirement of the homeless shelter, known by the Enforcement Official, that would make the shelter practically unavailable to the
Ordinance No. 1967
person, even if the shelter would be practically available to someone else.
6. A shelter shall not be considered to be practically available under this Subsection if it requires a person to participate in religious activities as a condition of receiving a sleeping space.
7. A shelter shall not be considered unavailable under this Subsection if the person is precluded from accessing the shelter solely based on their refusal to comply with the reasonable requirements of the shelter or the person is excluded from the shelter due to past violations of the shelter’s requirements.
H. Notwithstanding Subsection (G) of this Section, no person may obstruct any public or private right-of-way either with their person, or with their Personal Property, in a way that creates a risk to the health and safety of passersby, or significantly impedes pedestrian traffic, or interferes with the use and enjoyment of public parks or facilities. Upon notice by an Enforcement Official, any such person shall immediately remove the obstruction. Failure to remove the obstruction shall be unlawful and shall constitute a public nuisance.
Any Personal Property that is creating an obstruction as described in this Subsection and is not removed following notice may be impounded as provided in this Chapter.
Section 4. Compliance with California Environmental Quality Act. The Upland City Council (“City Council”) finds that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to California Code of Regulations, title 14, chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines”), sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. Further, if the activity is deemed a project, the City Council finds that this Ordinance is exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3).
Section 5. Severability. If any provision of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Ordinance which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Ordinance are severable. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance irrespective of the invalidity of any particular portion thereof.
Section 6. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective 30 days from its adoption.
Ordinance No. 1967
Section 7. Publication. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance and cause it, or a summary of it, to be published in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published within the City, pursuant to all legal requirements.

CITY FACILITY RESERVATIONS
1. PURPOSE
The City of Upland’s community facilities are available for use by organizations and the general public for cultural, social, and recreational activities and programs. Facility usage for these purposes is coordinated by the Recreation and Community Services Division.
The City does its best to accommodate all facility usage requests, as space and time permits.
This policy outlines the regulations, procedures, fees, and priority systems for the use of City facilities. This policy was designed to provide for the safe, efficient, and equitable use of the facilities.
The City works to ensure that the programs and facilities offered meet the needs of the community and that access to them is as economically feasible as possible. Fees, when charged, are used to offset public expenses and to operate, maintain, supervise, and administer the use of the park and City facilities.
The City is responsible for the initiation, review, and recommendation of plans for the acquisition and improvement of parklands and facilities and to recommend program improvements or additions when necessary. The City takes into consideration present and future needs of the community and recommends plans to meet those needs. When making recommendations, the City considers the needs of the entire community without bias towards special interest groups.
The following statements, rules, and regulations constitute the Facility Use Policy for the City of Upland.
It shall be the responsibility of the City Manager and/or designee to grant use of City facilities to individuals or organizations according to the terms and conditions set forth in the Facility Use Policy.

Scope of Services
It is important to note that while performing each service outlined herein, Willdan Financial Services (“Willdan”) will rely on the validity and accuracy of the City of Upland’s (“City”) data and documentation to complete our analysis. Willdan will rely on the data as being accurate without performing an independent verification of accuracy, and that we will not be responsible f or any errors that result from inaccurate data provided by the client or a third party.
Community Facilities District Administration
Willdan provides full-service formation and administration services for Community Facilities Districts (CFDs). The following is our standard scope of services for administration. Should the City desire to form additional CFDs in the future, Willdan would be happy to submit a supplementary proposal upon request.
1. Maintain and periodically update an electronic database containing parcel basis data and annual special tax levy amounts by Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN).
2. Annually calculate and apportion the special taxes, as specified in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax.
3. Prepare (if required) an annual resolution th at establishes the budget for the fiscal year and application of the special tax to be submitted to the County of San Bernardino (“County”), including the special tax summary for the fiscal year.
4. Provide special tax levies for each parcel by APN to the County Auditor/Controller’s Office in the media, format, and configuration required by the County for placement on the annual property tax roll.
5. Research parcel exceptions provided by the County and, if possible, resubmit installment amounts that are unapplied by the County Auditor/Controller’s Office. On behalf of the City, Willdan will manually invoice special tax installments that cannot be collected on the County property tax roll.
6. Provide a toll-free number to field inquiries from City staff, property owners, and other interested parties regarding special tax installments and related information.
7. Monitor delinquencies each January and May and submit periodic reports to the City.
8. Prepare an annual special tax report. This report will include:
The identification and recovery of CFD administrative costs; Review of fund balances to identify any surplus funds; Debt service requirements;
Delinquency summaries; and
Related recommendations or issues.
9. Provide an annual report to the California Debt and Investment Ad visory Commission (CDIAC) by October 30 if required by the California Government Code, section 53359.5(b), as amended.
10. Prepare “Notice of Special Tax” as required by the California Government Code, sections 53340.2(b) and 53341.5, as amended. The fee for this service is $15 per Notice and is to be paid by the requestor.
11. Be available to attend meetings.
12. Calculate written prepayment quotes (if allowable) for individual special tax liens, as described in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax or by resolution. For parcels prepaying the special tax, Willdan will coordinate the removal of the lien. The fee for this service is $500 per calculation, which is to be paid by the requestor.
13. Perform required bond call spreads and coordinate the early redem ption of outstanding bonds. The fee for this service is hourly, using our then-current hourly rates (see “Additional Services” section).
14 Client Responsibilities – CFD Administration
Willdan will rely on being able to obtain the following information from the City in order to efficiently administer the CFDs:
The budget summary to be incorporated into the annual resolution establishing the budget; and Assist Willdan in obtaining information. Although Willdan will annually research information regarding land subdivision, issuance of building permits and/or Certificates of Occupancy (as required by the City), Willdan may require assistance from the City.
Delinquency Management
In order to assist the City to comply with its foreclosure covenant to bondholders, Willdan will provide the following delinquency management services:
1. Monitor delinquent tax bill payments in January/February and May/June of each year.
2. Provide periodic delinquency reports to the City, including a detailed listing of current and prior year unpaid tax installments and recommendations for collections.
3. Send a delinquency reminder letter after the first installment of the tax bill becomes delinquent.
4. Send a 30-day delinquency demand letter after the second installment of the tax bill becomes delinquent.
5. Each demand letter will include a brochure providing answers to commonly asked questions regarding delinquencies.
6. Cause the removal of the delinquent installments of special taxes f or the current and/or prior tax year(s) from the County tax roll. Such removal will comply with SB 1471.
7. Send a final 21-day delinquency foreclosure letter to each delinquent property owner after receiving confirmation from the County for the removal of the delinquent special taxes. Foreclosure letters shall contain a brochure providing answers to “Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)” regarding delinquencies and judicial foreclosures.
8. Send those parcels, whose special taxes continue to remain delinquent after 21 days from the mailing of foreclosure letters to the City for collection. The City will collect the delinquent amount and all applicable penalties, interest, fees, and other authorized costs through the City-retained foreclosure counsel.
9. Provide a toll-free telephone number for Willdan to field inquiries from City staff, parcel owners, lenders, and other interested parties concerning annual installments and delinquencies. This number shall be available throughout the entire delinquency management/foreclosure process.
10. Assist foreclosure counsel to initiate and prosecute judicial foreclosure proceedings according to the bond foreclosure covenants for those parcels sent to foreclosure.
11. Provide (upon request) payoff quotes for stripped delinquent special tax installments for all interested parties. Fees for this service are paid by the requesting party and may be charged to a credit card; there is no charge to the City.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF UPLAND, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING UPLAND
MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 17.15.130 (POLITICAL
CAMPAIGN SIGNS - GENERAL), ZONING CODE TEXT
AMENDMENT NO. ZA-22-0002
WHEREAS, the City of Upland (“City”) desires to allow political speech protected under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution; and WHEREAS, the City’s Municipal Code Section 17.15.130 contains regulations concerning political campaign signs; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recommends removing the maximum number of signs per site restriction in order to allow more political speech; and WHEREAS, Upland Municipal Code Section 17.43.020 (Table 17.43-1) identifies the decision making authority as the City Council, with the Planning Commission being a recommendation body; and
WHEREAS, on July 27, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing for the project, continued the public hearing to August 24, 2022, and heard and considered both oral and written evidence and recommended that the City Council adopt an Ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance Section 17.15.130 in order to remove the maximum number of signs per site restriction; and
WHEREAS, a notice of a public hearing on said application has been given in the manner and for the time required by law; and
WHEREAS, on September 26, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. the City Council conducted a public hearing for the project and heard and considered both oral and written evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UPLAND DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated herein by this reference.
Section 2. Findings: Upland Municipal Code Section 17.48.060 provides that the approval body, before it may approve a Zoning Code Text Amendment, shall make a determination to allow the activity based upon the following findings:
1. Finding: The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable community or specific plan as provided by Government Code Section 65860.
Evidence: No community or specific plan is applicable to the proposed sign regulations. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan in that the City’s political sign ordinance will continue to
Ordinance No.
allow the City to promote a high quality and aesthetic environment through the regulation of signage, while ensuring the ordinance is consistent with the Constitution of the United States. Furthermore, the ordinance is consistent with the following General Plan goals and policies:
A. Goal LU-1: A viable community with a mix of land uses and building types that offer a wide range of choices to live, work, shop and participate in civic, cultural, open space, and recreational opportunities.
Fact: The text amendment will allow for additional choices for sign placement, broadening civic opportunities. The text amendment will also promote consistency with federal requirements, and preserve constitutional freedoms, thereby increasing civic participation.
B. Policy LU-6.2: Compatibility of Uses: Control the location, concentration and operations of land uses that have potential impacts on surrounding development through effective design principles, adequate buffering, and enforcement of regulatory documents.
Fact: The text amendment continues to allow the City to adequately regulate political signs in order to reduce potential impacts by continuing to apply regulations on location and size, while still providing appropriate regulations allowing for the posting of political signs in a manner that is consistent with state and federal laws, the Constitution of the United States, and current case law
2. Finding: The proposed amendment will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, or welfare of the City.
Evidence: The proposed Zoning Amendment will continue to fairly regulate political signs while protecting the constitutionally protected freedom of speech of the City’s residents. The amendment may result in an increase in the number of political signs posted, but the remaining City regulations regarding political signs are adequate to protect public interest, health, safety, and welfare of the City.
3. Finding: The proposed amendment is internally consistent with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
Evidence: The proposed amendment does not conflict with any other sections of the Zoning Ordinance. No other Specific Plans specifically regulate political signs, therefore, these regulations will apply to the City as a whole.
Section 3. Ordinance: Amending the Municipal Code.
Ordinance No.
A. Section 17.15.130 of Chapter 17.15 of Title 17 of the Upland Municipal Code is hereby amended as follows:
“17.15.130 Political Campaign Signs—General
Political campaign signs shall be permitted in any zone subject to the granting of a permit by the City Manager or designee for each local, special, district, state, or national election, when such signs satisfy each of the following conditions.
A. Statement of Understanding. Applicants shall sign a statement indicating that they understand the regulations and that it is presumed that any sign advertising the candidacy of any particular candidate applicant was erected and/or placed by and with consent of that candidate applicant.
Likewise, it is presumed that all signs advertising or propounding a particular affirmative or negative vote on an issue and/or proposal were placed and/or erected by the person or committee applicant propounding that proposition.
B. Time Limit. All signs advertising candidates or specific issues shall be removed within 10 days after the date of the election by the candidate, person or committee applicant advertising the candidacy, issue or proposal.
C. Maximum Number of Signs Per Site. No candidate nor any committee or person favoring or opposing a specific issue shall have more than one political sign per site.
DC. Maximum Total Area. No sign shall exceed six square feet in total area in residential zones, nor more than 16 square feet in commercial or industrial zones.
ED. Maximum Height. The sign shall not exceed an overall height of four feet in residential zones, nor more than six feet in commercial or industrial zones.
FE. Lighting. The sign shall not be lighted either directly or indirectly.
GF. Attachment. The sign shall not be attached to any tree, fence post, utility pole, nor affixed in any permanent manner to any structure.
HG. Location. No sign shall be posted in the public right-of-way.”
Section 4. Compliance with California Environmental Quality Act.

Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3)), the common sense exemption covering activities with no possibility of having a significant effect on the environment because the Ordinance does not result in any actual installation or construction of any political campaign signs, and only establishes regulatory guidelines for future political campaign signs.
Section 5. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, or clause or phrase in this Ordinance or any part thereof is for any reason held to be
Ordinance No.
unconstitutional, invalid or ineffective by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the remaining portions of this Ordinance or any part thereof. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted each section irrespective of the fact that any one or more subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, or phrases are declared unconstitutional, invalid, or ineffective.
Section 6. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days from its adoption.
Section 7. Publication. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance and cause it, or a summary of it, to be published in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published within the City of Upland, pursuant to all legal requirements.

“Section 2.04.070 Powers and duties.
A. The city manager shall be the administrative head of the government of the city under the direction and control of the city council except as otherwise provided in this code. The city manager shall be responsible for the efficient administration of all the affairs of the city which are under his or her control. In addition to his or her general powers as administrative head, and not as limitation thereon, it shall be his or her duty and he or she shall have the powers set forth in Sections 2.04.080 through 2.04.200, inclusive.
B. Under Government Code Section 40602(b), the mayor is vested with the authority to sign all written contracts and conveyances made or entered into by the city while the city council may provide by ordinance that written contracts and conveyances may be signed by an officer other than the mayor.
Ordinance No.
Therefore, the city manager may sign any written contract or conveyance on behalf of the city whenever the city council so authorizes the city manager by motion or resolution subject to such condition or limitation that the city council may impose upon such authority to the city manager.
C. The city manager also may approve and sign a contract on behalf of the city for the purchase of equipment, materials, supplies or services provided the expenditure for same is authorized by the current annual budget and the contract amount does not exceed $100,000.00 for any one vendor or professional in the same fiscal year. Additionally, the city manager may also approve and sign contracts between the city and other government agencies and non-profit organizations that are “no cost” to the city and do not impose or assume any liability to the city that it would not otherwise have in the absence of the contract. The city manager shall notify the city council in writing at least once per month of the execution of any contracts executed by the city manager for the city.
It shall be the duty of the city manager to, and he or she shall, appoint, remove, promote, demote, and discipline any and all officers and employees of the city, except the city treasurer and city attorney, unless otherwise prescribed by this code.

Section 4. Severability.
