SUBJECT: REPORT ON 2023 LEMON FESTIVAL FINANCIALS RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file the Soundkilz Inc. Profit and Loss Statement relating to the 2023 Upland Lemon Festival and approve a budget adjustment increasing revenues and expenses by the $23,612.98 the City is receiving from the event.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of transparency.
BACKGROUND
The Lemon Festival has been hosted in Historic Downtown Upland since 2009.It has been produced and managed by various parties including the former Main Street Inc, the Learning Center at Fairplex, and two different City departments. The 2020 Lemon Festival was cancelled by the COVID-19 pandemic,and in 2021,Fairplex notified the City that they were no longer interested in managing the event.
On March 15,2022,City Council approved a professional services agreement with Soundskilz,Inc.to run the Lemon Festival in the City for a 5-year term. The agreement calls for the first$50,000 in net profits generated by the Lemon Festival to go to Soundskilz,with remaining profits split between Soundskilz and the City on a 75/25 basis.
In 2022, the Lemon Festival generated a gross profit of$145,521, which resulted in a net income of$43,756 after expenses.Although the City did not receive a share of the revenue due to the aforementioned agreement,it did receive a safe,family event which brought visitors and an economic boost to the downtown area at no out-of-pocket cost other than staff time.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Soundskilz,Inc. has provided the City with a Profit and Loss Statement relating to the 2023 Upland Lemon Festival held June 9-11,2023. The event generated revenues of$764,786.77 and costs of goods sold(such as equipment rental, security,labor and supplies)of$620,334.85.The total net income of the event was$144,451.92 which resulted in an amount payable to the City of Upland of$23,612.98(see attachment).
The City of Upland will use this revenue to make improvements throughout the downtown area,such as epoxying the gazebo in downtown Upland to improve its durability and appearance, installing wireless speakers and increased lighting downtown and funding incentives to encourage local businesses to promote and participate in the Lemon Festival.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is the adoption of an investment policy,and not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines defines a project subject to CEQA. The proposed action is not included within the definition of a"project"and thus is exempt.
FISCAL IMPACTS
The$23,612.98 in proceeds to the City as a result of the Lemon Festival will be received as revenue with the approval of a budget adjustment in conjunction with this staff report. The budget adjustment will also include a corresponding
amount of expenses set aside to make improvements in downtown Upland and encourage participation in future Lemon Festivals.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF PROCUREMENT OF CONCRETE TABLES AND WASTE
RECEPTACLES FOR CITY PARKS USING ARPA FUNDS
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the procurement of concrete tables and waste receptacles from Outdoor Creations Inc. in the amount of$89,992.80; and authorize the City Manager to execute any necessary documents to complete the purchase.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of improving our parks' functionality and design while also limiting future maintenance costs.
BACKGROUND
On March 11,2021,the American Rescue Plan Act("ARPA")was signed into law by the President. Section 9901 of ARPA amended Title VI of the Social Security Act to establish the Coronavirus State Fiscal Recovery Fund and Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Funds,which together make up the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds("SLFRF")program. The$1.9 trillion SLFRF program,administered by the U.S.Department of the Treasury ("Treasury"), is intended to provide support to State, local, and Tribal governments in responding to the impact of COVID-19 and in their efforts to contain COVID-19 on their communities, residents, and businesses. The SLFRF program funds build on and expand the economic support provided by the State and federal government over the last year,including through the Coronavirus Aid,Relief,and Economic Security Act("CARES"Act)Coronavirus Relief Fund("CRF").
On June 12, 2023, City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Operating Budget, which included $90,000 set aside for concrete tables in City parks.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The existing tables in our city parks predominantly consist of plastic-coated metal, which experience frequent maintenance,wear and tear issues,and vandalism.The transition to replacing all city park tables and waste receptacles with cement alternatives offers various advantages, such as longevity, ease of maintenance and cleaning, minimal repairs and uniformity throughout city parks.
With$90,000 approved in ARPA funds included in the FY 23/24 budget,Staff reached out to local vendors requesting quotes for 36 concrete picnic tables. The City's procurement policy was followed with the obtaining of three quotes as the lowest of the quotes received was below$50,000. As the quote from Outdoor Creations Inc.was so much lower than other vendors,an additional 26 concrete waste receptacles were able to be added to the quote and stay within the $90,000 adopted budget. The two other quotes received were from Kings River Casting, Inc. in the amount of $94,866.47 and from Wausau Tile in the amount of$96,460.50 for the 36 concrete picnic tables alone.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA)pursuant to Article 19, Section 15301,Existing Facilities, Class 1 of the CEQA Guidelines, since the proposed project does not include any expansion of the existing site,and includes repairs,maintenance,improvements,and minor alterations to the existing parks.Further,if the activity is deemed a project,it would be exempt pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3)of the CEQA Guidelines.
FISCAL IMPACTS
There are sufficient funds budgeted to make the recommended purchases in the ARPA Fund(2295420)Park Facility Furniture&Equipment Project.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

TERRY DOYLE,DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES/RISK MANAGEMENT SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF SALARY RANGE ADJUSTMENT FOR BUSINESS LICENSE
INSPECTOR JOB CLASSIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the salary range adjustment for the Business License Inspector job classification from Salary Range 23 ($49,847.63-$63,619.61)to Salary Range 25 ($52,371.17-66,840.36).
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal to provide Upland employees with fair and equitable compensation based upon the cities Upland and the bargaining unit has agreed upon as comparable to set salaries for positions.
BACKGROUND
The City of Upland's Merit System Rules and Regulations establish the personnel system for the City of Upland and provide for an equitable and uniform procedure for dealing with personnel matters through a department of personnel and provide for employment within the City of Upland on a merit basis, so the best qualified person shall be brought into the service of the City.
In addition to establishing an equitable and uniform procedure for dealing with personnel matters,the Merit System Rules and Regulations establish a classification plan for personnel. The classification plan provides a group of jobs by commonality of duties,responsibilities,and functions for each job specification within the plan.
From time-to-time, as may be deemed necessary to carry out the intent and purposes of the City, the Council may revise the classification plan and/or salary range covering all positions in the competitive service.
In February 2022 the City began a comprehensive City-wide classification and compensation study of all positions within the City and the final salary report was presented to the City in July of 2022. The Business License Inspector was one of the positions studied and presented a finding at a salary range 23 ($49,847.63-$63,619.61). At that time, this position was determined to be y-rated,as it was 12.9%over the market.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The Business License Inspector class is a single-incumbent classification and the current employee retired on August 17,2023,leaving the City with a vacancy in this classification. When a single-incumbent classification is determined to be y-rated and the employees leaves the position,the City the opportunity to review the salary range for the class according to the market. Since it has been 16 months since the consultant conducted the salary survey for the Business License Inspector position the City conducted another survey to see if there had been any change in the market with comparable cities. In the original survey,the City had been the top paid City in the market but has now dropped to the fifth position of seven cities surveyed.
Adjusting the salary range from 23 to 25 would put Upland as the fourth highest paid city for this position, which places us at median,remedying the previous y-rated status.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines defines a project subject to CEQA. The proposed action is not included within the definition of a"project" and thus is exempt.
FISCAL IMPACTS
There is no fiscal impact as the City budgeted the position based on the y-rated salary schedule,and salary range 25 is lower than the y-rated salary range.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.
CEQA:Not a Project.

SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION OF SENATE BILL 998 DISCONTINUATION OF RESIDENTIAL
WATER SERVICE POLICY
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions: approve a Resolution adopting the City's written policy regarding Discontinuation of Residential Water Service Due to Nonpayment, hold first reading by title only, waive further reading, and introduce an Ordinance repealing and replacing Chapters 12.030 through 12.100 and Chapter 34 of Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code relative to the implementation of the City's Senate Bill 998(SB 998)Policy on Discontinuation of Water Service Due To Nonpayment.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of providing excellent and continuous water service to its residents and becoming compliant with the requirements of Senate Bill 998.
BACKGROUND
Senate Bill 998(SB 998)
The Water Shutoff Protection Act(SB 998)became effective February 1,2020. The intent of SB 998 is to minimize the number of Californians who lose access to water service due to the inability to pay for its usage.
SB 998 requires water service providers to adopt a written policy concerning discontinuation of residential water service for nonpayment(Water Service Discontinuation Policy). The policy must prohibit water service shutoff due to nonpayment for any residential customer who has been delinquent less than sixty(60)days and must be published on the agency's website in English,Spanish,Korean,Vietnamese,Tagalog,and Chinese(Mandarin).
Additionally,the policy must prohibit discontinuation of water service for any residential customer who has a financial hardship under the guidelines set forth by the legislation and must discuss options to avert discontinuation of water service for nonpayment, including, but not limited to, alternative payment schedules, deferred payments, minimum payments,procedures for requesting amortization of unpaid balance, and procedures for petition for bill review and appeal.
The policy must also prohibit water service shutoff if all the following conditions are met by the customer:
• Health Conditions - The customer submits certification of a "primary care provider," as defined in the Welfare and Institutions Code Section 14088(b)(1)(A), stating discontinuation of residential water service will be life threatening to or pose a serious threat to the health and safety of a person residing at the property; • Financial Inability - The customer demonstrates that he or she is financially unable to pay for residential water service within the normal billing cycle. A customer is financially unable to pay if any member of the customer's household is a current recipient of CalWORKS, CalFresh, general assistance, Medi-Cal, Supplement Security Income/State Supplemental Payment Program, or California Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women,Infants,and Children,or the customer declares that the household's income is less than 200%of the federal poverty level;and
• Alternative Payment Options-The customer is willing to enter into one of the following alternative payment options to be selected by the City, in its sole discretion: (i) an amortization agreement, (ii) an alternative payment schedule,or(iii)a temporary deferred payment plan,with respect to all delinquent charges to avoid discontinuation of water service.
In addition,SB 998 places a limit on the amount of fees that may be charged on customers who demonstrate that their household income is below 200%of the federal poverty line. In such situation,the City must set its reconnection fee, during normal operating hours, at $50.00, and during non-operation hours, at $150.00,but not to exceed the actual cost of reconnection.
No-Shutoff Policy
Prior to SB 998 and the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020,the City's utility bill payment procedure was as follows: payment of a utility bill was due twenty-five (25) days after the bill date. A penalty fee of$15.75 was applied to an account if the utility bill was not paid within forty-five (45)calendar days of the bill date. If payment was not received within fifty-two(52)calendar days,the water utility service was scheduled for shutoff.
Soon after SB 998 became effective, the COVID-19 pandemic caused severe hardships for customers and on City personnel. In April 2020, due to the growing COVID-19 crisis at the time, Governor Newsom issued an executive order completely restricting water shutoffs. All of these factors made implementation of a SB 998 Water Service Discontinuation Policy impracticable at the time. Instead, the City adopted a No-Shutoff Policy, whereby water service accounts would never be shutoff, even for serious delinquency. The No-Shutoff Policy remains effective to the present.
Lien Procedure for Delinquent Accounts
In 2014, the City adopted Ordinance 1883, which added Chapter 34 to Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code, allowing the City to pursue payment of delinquent utility accounts by adding the delinquent amounts as a special assessment lien added to the county tax roll. However,the City did not pursue collection on tenant accounts through this process until and unless tenants ceased their tenancy and the water service account reverted to the property owner.
This often left the property owner with large,surprise delinquent bills.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The combination of the financial hardships caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on water service customers, issues affecting the City's staffing,and the City's No-Shutoff policy have created a growing financial issue.
The City water utility system provides water service to over 19,500 accounts. In 2020 there were approximately 217 delinquent accounts with a combined total delinquent balance of$38,698. Since then,and for the reasons previously stated, the number of delinquent accounts has grown dramatically. As of July 2023, there were 764 delinquent accounts with a combined total delinquent balance of$1,231,416. The average delinquent balance is currently$1,611.
Additionally,many accounts that previously had good payment history have become delinquent,as abuse of the City's No-Shutoff Policy has become widespread.
The City needs to become compliant with SB 998 and requires a method to address the growing problem of delinquent water service accounts. Staff recommends the City take the following actions:
1. Adopt a written Discontinuation of Residential Water Service Policy and make the policy available on the City website in English, Spanish,Korean,Vietnamese, Tagalog, and Chinese(Mandarin). This policy will include the following:
a. Establish a mechanism for monthly delinquency notices and delinquency fees to be delivered to water service account customers and landlords(in the case of tenant accounts); b. Establish that the City may address delinquent water accounts by the following options:
i. Collection by addition special assessment lien added to the county tax roll pursuant to Chapter 34 of Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code;or
ii. through water service shutoff,subject to SB 998 requirements. c. In the event of water service shutoff:
i. Establish a formal mechanism for a customer to contest or appeal a bill; ii. Limit certain low-income customer's normal operating hours reconnection fee to $50.00 and non-operational hours reconnection fee to$150.00;
d. Report on the City's website at the beginning of the fiscal year the number of annual discontinuation/shutoffs of residential service for inability to pay.
2. Repeal and replace Chapters 12.030 through 12.100 of Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code such that the City:
a. Establishes that property owners are the only eligible applicants for water service accounts; b. Makes clear that property owners are legally liable for payment on their delinquent accounts;
c. Makes clear that delinquent water service accounts will be governed by the lien procedure stated in Title 13 Chapter 34 of the Upland Municipal Code;and
d. Makes other de minimis corrections to the form and language of the chapter.
3. Repeal and replace Chapter 34 of Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code such that the City:
a. More clearly states the City's intention and ability to pursue delinquent utility service charges through the recordation of a special assessment lien and collection of these charges by their addition to the county tax rolls.
b. Makes other de minimis corrections to the form and language of the chapter.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines defines a project subject to CEQA. The proposed action is not included within the definition of a"project" and thus is exempt.
FISCAL IMPACTS
A positive but undeterminable fiscal impact to the City's water fund is anticipated as a result of this action. Once procedures are in place, the City can reduce the substantial delinquent balance on water service accounts.
Additionally, it is expected that the number of delinquent accounts will begin to decline as a result of these changes in policy.

3. The burden of proving compliance with the conditions described in Section E, Subdivision 2, is on the customer. In order to allow the City sufficient time to process any request for assistance by a customer, the customer is encouraged to provide the City with the necessary documentation demonstrating the medical issues, financial inability, and willingness to enter into any alternative payment option as far in advance of any proposed date for discontinuation of water service as possible. Upon receipt of such documentation,the City will review that documentation and respond to the customer within seven (7) calendar days to either request additional information, including information relating to the feasibility of the available alternative arrangement, or to notify the customer of the alternative payment option, and terms thereof, in which the City will allow the customer to participate. If the City has requested additional information, the customer will provide that requested information within five (5) calendar days of receipt of the City's request. Within five (5) calendar days of its receipt of that additional information, the City will either notify the customer in writing that the customer does not meet the conditions, or notify the customer in writing of the alternative payment option, and terms thereof, in which the City will allow the customer to participate. Customers who fail to meet the conditions described in Section E, Subdivision 2, must pay the delinquent amount, including any penalties and other charges, owing to the City within the latter to occur: (i)two (2) business days after the date of notification of the City's determination that the customer failed to meet those conditions; or (ii) the date of the impending water service discontinuation, as specified in the Disconnection Notice.

a) The Customer will pay the unpaid balance over a period defined by the City, not to exceed twelve (12) months from the original date of the bill.
b) The amortized payments will be combined with,and subject to the due date of the customer's regular bill.
c) The customer may not request further amortization of any subsequent unpaid charges while paying delinquent charges pursuant to a payment plan.

a) The customer will pay the unpaid balance, over a period defined by the City, not to exceed twelve (12) months from the original date of the bill.
b) The City will develop an alternative payment schedule for the customer. The alternative schedule may provide for periodic lump sum payments that do not coincide with the established payment date, may provide for payments to be made more frequently than monthly,or may provide that payments be made less frequently than monthly, provided that in all cases the unpaid balance and penalty charges will be paid in full over the period established by the City.
c) The customer may not request further alternative payment schedules of any subsequent unpaid charges while paying delinquent charges pursuant to a payment schedule.
6. Temporary Deferral of Payment - If the City has selected this alternative payment option, the customer will have payment of the unpaid balance temporarily deferred for a period of up to six (6) months after the payment is due.

a) The customer will pay the unpaid balance by the deferral date determined by the City. b) The customer may not request further temporary deferral of payments of any subsequent unpaid charges while paying delinquent charges pursuant to a payment plan.
7. All alternative payment options require a Financial Hardship Agreement to be signed by the customer of record. Failure to comply with the agreement or failure to pay charges accrued in each subsequent billing period will result in the discontinuation of water service.
8. If a customer fails to comply with the terms of any of the alternative payment options for sixty (60) calendar days or more, or fails to pay the customer's current service charges for sixty (60) calendar days or more,the City will post a written disconnection notice in a prominent location at the service address. The disconnection notice will be delivered to the property no less than five(5) business days in advance of discontinuance of water service.
F) Restoration of Water Service:
1. Customers whose water service was discontinued due to nonpayment are responsible for all unpaid bills and associated fees. After residential water service has been discontinued, one of the following must apply before water service is reconnected:
a) Delinquent balance including penalties are paid in full; or b) The City agrees, in its sole discretion, to grant a qualified customer's request for an amortization schedule, an alternative payment schedule, a temporary deferral of payment that was made after the water service was already discontinued, and the customer has signed a Financial Hardship Agreement.
2. If water service has been discontinued and is to be reconnected, then any reconnection fees during the City's normal operating hours cannot exceed $50.00, and reconnection fees during non- operational hours cannot exceed $150.00 for customers with a household income below 200%of the federal poverty line or if the customer or any member of the customer's household is a current recipient of CaIWORKs, CalFresh, general assistance, Medi-Cal, Supplemental Security Income/State Supplementary Payment Program, or California Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, 4
Infants, and Children. Customers who do not meet the above requirements shall pay the then- applicable amount restoration of service under the City's schedule of fees and charges.
G) Appeals:
1. If you believe your bill is incorrect, please contact the City immediately. Timely appeal requests must be received no later than ten (10) calendar days after the mailing of the Disconnection Notice. a) Complete the Utility Billing Appeal Request Form and submit the form either in person to the Finance Division or via email at [email protected]. b) A timely appeal request will be reviewed by the Utilities Operations Manager and Utility Billing Supervisor. The review will include consideration of whether the customer may receive an amortization of the amount due.
c) Service will not be discontinued while a timely appeal request is under review. d) Once the Utilities Operation Manager and Utility Billing Supervisor has reviewed the appeal request, the customer will be contacted in writing with the resolution. All undisputed amounts are to be paid during the normal billing cycle. e) Any overcharges will be reflected as a credit on the next regular bill to the customer, or refunded directly to the customer at the sole discretion of the City. f) If the customer disagrees with the resolution of their appeals request,then the customer may request an appeals hearing with the City Manager within ten (10) business days of the City's mailing of its initial written determination.
g) If the customer disagrees with the determination of the City Manager, the customer may appeal the determination to the City Council by filing a written notice of appeal with the City Clerk within ten (10) business days of the City Manager's written determination. Upon receiving the notice of appeal, the City Clerk will set the matter to be considered at an upcoming City Council meeting and mail the customer written notice of the time and place of the meeting at least ten (10) days before the meeting. The decision of the City Council shall be final.
H) Procedures for Occupants or Tenants to Become Customers of the City
1. This section shall apply only when the property owner, landlord, manager, or operator of a residential service address is listed as the customer of record and has been issued a Disconnection Notice.
2. The City will make service available to the actual residential occupants if each occupant agrees to the terms and conditions of service and otherwise meets the requirements of the City's rules and regulations.
Notwithstanding, if one or more of the occupants are willing and able to assume responsibility for the subsequent charges to the account to the satisfaction of the City, or if there is a physical means, legally available to the City, of selectively discontinuing service to those occupants who have not met the requirements of the City's rules and regulations, the City shall make service available to the occupants who have met those requirements.
3. To be eligible to become a customer without paying the amount due on the delinquent account, the occupant shall verify that the delinquent customer of record is or was the landlord, manager, or agent of the dwelling. Verification may include, but is not limited to, a lease or rental agreement, rent receipts, a government document indicating that the occupant is renting the property, or information disclosed pursuant to Section 1962 of the Civil Code, at the discretion of the City.
4. If prior service for a period of time is a condition for establishing credit with the City, residence and proof of prompt payment of rent for that period of time is a satisfactory equivalent. 5

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
UPLAND REPEALING AND REPLACING CHAPTERS 12.030
THROUGH 12.100 AND CHAPTER 34 OF TITLE 13 OF THE
UPLAND MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 998 (SB 998) became effective on February 1, 2020, prohibiting the discontinuation of water service for nonpayment of any residential customer who has been delinquent less than 60 days; and WHEREAS, SB 998 requires the establishment of a written Discontinuation of Water Service Due to Nonpayment Policy to be made available on the City's website in English, Spanish, Korean, Vietnamese, Tagolog and Chinese (Mandarin); and WHEREAS, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the City followed an informal policy refraining from any discontinuation of water service for any reason (No-Shutoff Policy), including nonpayment in order to remain compliant with the goals of SB 998; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Upland has previously adopted Ordinance No. 1883 electing to have delinquent water and sewer service charges collected on the tax roll, including the addition of chapter 34 of Title 13 to the Upland Municipal Code relating to liens imposed for unpaid water and sewer service charges; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that allowing water service accounts to be placed in the name of tenants rather than property owners limits the effects and efficiency of both chapter 12 and 34 of Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code and the water service application process; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the number of delinquent accounts has increased significantly as a combined result of the after-effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the City's No-Shutoff Policy, and the limited efficiency of chapters 12 and 34 of Title 13 of the Upland Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the growing costs incurred by the City in providing water and sewer services to property owners and tenants who fail to pay for these services significantly detracts from the City's ability to provide other necessary services to the public; and
WHEREAS, Health and Safety Code Section 5470, et seq., authorizes the City to secure a lien upon a property receiving water and sewer services that has delinquent water and sewer service charges if, among other procedural requirements, the City elects to have such charges collected on the tax roll; and WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this ordinance have occurred.

B. Refund of Security Deposit.
1. The security deposit will be retained in an interest-free account. Upon closure of a utility account the security deposit will be applied towards any balance remaining on the account, and the remainder, if any, will be refunded to the customer.
If a balance remains due after crediting the security deposit, the amount of the balance will be due upon written notice to the customer.
C. Restrictions on Transfer of Services and Security Deposit.
1. Except as provided herein, no utility service or security deposit shall be transferred from one party to another. It shall be the responsibility of the utility user to notify the city in writing of the date discontinuance of service is desired and failure to do so shall render the user liable for all utility charges incurred until such notice is received. This provision shall not relieve a new customer or occupant of a residence or other place where city utility service is desired of the responsibility to apply for service.
If at any time the city becomes aware that a customer has been receiving services without having properly applied for the same, such services shall be immediately discontinued until the customer provides a proper, complete application for service.
Such customer shall be liable and charged for any services received from the date of commencement of the use, to the extent such date may be ascertained. If it cannot be ascertained, charges for utility services shall be made from the date of the last regular meter reading or other determination of usage.
2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a residential customer shall be allowed to transfer services and/or any security deposit to an immediate member of the customer's family (i.e., spouse, sibling, child or parent) residing at the same premises when made necessary due to death or divorce (i.e., final divorce decree has been entered) of the customer of record. Such transfer shall be permitted provided that a written request by such spouse or relative to assume the original customer's obligation to pay utility charges is filed with the city no less than 10 business days after the death or effective date of divorce. The request shall be made under penalty of perjury on a form provided by the finance division, and shall explain in full the circumstances necessitating the transfer of the security deposit and utility service, and shall further represent that the transferee satisfies the requirements of this section in all respects.
The city shall have the right to require further evidence in support of the requested transfer, where deemed necessary under the circumstances. Provided the request for approval or transfer complies in all respects with the requirements of this section and the account is not delinquent, then the city will revise its records and future billings to show the transferee as the "customer" on the original account and the transferee shall immediately become responsible for payment of future, current and any past due bills for service. Furthermore, by requesting transfer of a security deposit and/or utility services, the transferee expressly agrees to comply with and be governed by the provisions of this title. Any person who knowingly makes a false statement to the city in order to obtain approval of a transfer of a security deposit and/or utility service shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. (Prior code § 7720.6)

If payment is not received in Upland City Hall, or such other location as may be established by resolution, prior to 6:00 p.m. on the 25th day after presentation, the charges are delinquent and subject to additional charges and penalties as scheduled by separate resolution of the city council. Failure to receive a bill or statement of account does not relieve the consumer of liability.
C. Property Owner Legally Liable for Payment. The consumer receiving service is liable for water and other such utility service charges as billed until the city is notified to discontinue service. Should charges for utility services become delinquent, the legal owner of the property will be notified, and it shall be the final responsibility of the property owner to remedy the delinquency unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law. If charges remain delinquent for 60 days, such charges shall constitute a lien against the lot or parcel of land within the city or outside the limits of the city, against which the charge was imposed and for which services were rendered. This lien will be placed upon the service address pursuant to UMC 13.34 and collected by addition to the county tax roll.
D. Finance Director and/or the Public Works Director May Adjust. The finance director and/or the public works director or designee may, in their discretion, adjust bills for the purpose of reflecting their reasonable opinion of actual water usage and/or other charges and all persons affected shall have the right to appeal any such determination to the city council and a decision of the council with respect thereto shall be final and conclusive as to all parties.

A. Consumer About to Vacate Premises. Each consumer about to vacate any premises supplied with water service by the water division and/or finance division shall give advance notice of his or her intended removal, specifying the desired date for discontinuing service; otherwise, he or she will be held responsible for water service furnished to such premises until the water division and/or finance division shall have notice for such removal.
B. Division's Right to Discontinue Service.
1. For Failure to Comply with Regulations. If a consumer or owner fails to comply with the provisions of this chapter or the regulations of the division after 48 hours' notice thereof, the division may forthwith discontinue water service to such consumer or owner until full and complete compliance is obtained.
2. For Improper Disposal of Water.

3. For Wastage of Water. Any person who wastes, causes, permits or allows to be wasted any water in any cooling system, ornamental foundation or other device of any kind whatsoever, may after service of 48 hours' notice of intention have all water service discontinued or may be subject to the penalties under the provisions of Section
13.16.020 of the Upland Municipal Code.
4. For Refusal to Admit Employee to Inspect. Any person who as owner or occupant of any premises refuses admittance to, or hinders or prevents inspection by an authorized employee of the division may, after service of 24-hour notice of intention, have all water discontinued.
Ordinance No.
5. For Nonpayment of Bill. If water and other utility charges are not paid as previously set forth then the city will adhere to the city's Discontinuation of Residential Water Service Policy. The city council may, by resolution or motion, adopt or amend a Discontinuation of Residential Water Service Policy, which will comply with the provisions of Health & Safety Code Section 116900, et seq., and Public Utilities Code Section 10009, et seq. The policy may include, but may not be limited to, provisions concerning discontinuation of service, notification, restoration of service, procedures to contest or appeal a water bill, extensions or other alternative payment arrangements, protections available to qualified low-income consumers, procedures for becoming a consumer under specified circumstances, and related matters.
6. Turn-off or turn-on of service when requested by the consumer for the closing of an old account or the beginning of a new one will be supplied at no charge to the consumer, provided such request is placed with the finance division at least 24 hours prior thereto in order to effect discontinuance or restoration of water service.
Requests for service connections after normal working hours and/or on weekends will be subject to fees set by separate resolution of the city council. Exceptions may be made by the public works director or designee in his or her discretion where he or she finds that discontinuance of service would jeopardize the health, safety and welfare of the water consumer.
C. Only Public Works Director May Turn Water On. No person shall tap, open or connect to, or cause, permit or allow to be turned on, in any way, any water after the same has been turned off by the public works director.
D. Restoration of Service. Upon failure to comply with regulations of the division, to pay charges, or to comply with any charge or penalty imposed for failure as herein provided, water services may be turned off until the regulations are complied with and/or penalty payments are made in the amount due. To restore service an amount as set by separate schedule and resolution enacted by the city council will be collected to defray the cost of turning water service back on. In the event the consumer turns on the water service or suffers or causes it to be turned on after it has been turned off for any of the above reasons, the department may again turn off the water service and remove the meter. The costs incurred for this additional expense shall be commensurate with the cost of this service and shall be determined and charged by the public works director or designee. In any case, if the meter is removed for cause, additional charges as set by separate resolution may be incurred by the consumer. The consumer's account may then be closed by the finance department and any advance payments applied against this closing bill.
E. Returned Checks. Any account for which payment is made by check and for which check is returned by the bank on which it was drawn shall be considered as unpaid and subject to charges for handling as set by separate schedule. Consumers who have had checks returned by the bank may be subject to request for payment by cash, credit card or money orders only, at the discretion of the finance director. (Prior code § 7720.8)

A. Consumer Dissatisfaction with Meter—Meter Testing. In case of dissatisfaction with the registration of any meter, the consumer shall make a written complaint to the water division, and pay a deposit in an amount as set by separate resolution of the city council enacted from time to time, which deposit will be returned and the water bill adjusted in an equitable manner in case the meter shall be found to register over three percent more than actually passes through it. If the meter is found
Ordinance No.
to be accurate within three percent, the deposit shall be forfeited to the city and the water bill paid as rendered.
B. Meter Failure. If a meter fails to register during any period or is known to register inaccurately, the consumer shall be charged with an average daily consumption according to the season, as shown by the meter when in use and registering accurately.

Where there is no water main in front of, at the side of or to the rear of applicant's property, applicant shall install at his own expense.
D. Meter City Property. All services and all water meters installed by the division shall, at all times, remain the property of the division.

No person shall tamper with, remove, cause, permit, or allow to be tampered with or removed, any meter where the same has been attached to any service, or break, cause, permit, or allow to be broken any meter seal. If such tampering or breaking occurs, the division shall impose a penalty set by separate resolution of the city council and may remove the meter.
F. By-Pass Connections Unlawful. Any by-pass or connection around the meter between the service and the main shall be prohibited and such service shall be subject to discontinuance without prior notification. All water used shall pass through the meter.
G. Unlawful to Cover Meter Box. It is unlawful at any time to cover meter boxes with trash, rubbish, dirt or other foreign matter, to permit ivy or other shrubbery to grow over meter boxes, or to park automobiles or other vehicles over meter boxes.
If the city's water meter reader is unable to read the meter in the normal course of his or her work because of any of the above, an estimated reading for a comparable period will be estimated and billed to the consumer. Additionally, if the consumer permits a dog or other animal to prohibit the meter reader from reading the meter of the consumer, then the consumer's meter may be billed on an estimated basis for a comparable period of time in which the meter reader is effectively prevented from reading the meter.
