Local Hazard Mitigation Plan(LHMP)
The City of Upland is preparing an update to its 2016 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan(LHMP).This plan helps to create a safer community for residents,businesses, and visitors.The LHMP allows public safety officials and city staff,elected officials,and members of the public to understand the threats from natural and human-caused hazards in our community.The plan will also recommend specific actions to proactively decrease these threats before disasters occur.This plan will also re-open a five-year eligibility window for Federal Emergency Management Agency{FEMA}grants to assist in funding hazard mitigation projects within the City and financial assistance from the State once formerly adopted by the City Council.

Why have an LHMP?
An LHMP will let Upland better plan for future emergencies.Usually,after a disaster occurs,communities take steps to recover from the emergency and rebuild.

An LHMP is a way for the City to better prepare in advance for these disasters so that when they occur,less damage occurs,and recovery is easier.Our community can use LHMP strategies to reduce instances of property damage,injury,and loss of life from disasters.Besides protecting public health and safety, this approach can save money.Studies estimate that every dollar spent on mitigation saves an average of four dollars on response and recovery costs.An LHMP can also heLp strengthen the mission of public safety officers,such as police and fire department staff,providing them with clear roles and responsibilities to buiLd a safer community.

Besides helping protect Upland,our LHMP will make the City eligible for grants from the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA)that can further improve safety and preparedness in the community.Having an adopted LHMP can also make Upland eligible for more financial assistance from the State when disasters occur.

B-2

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland What is in our LHMP?
The City of Upland LHMP includes four main sections:
• A summary of the natural and human-caused hazards that pose a risk to our community.This will include descriptions of past disaster events and the chances of these disasters occurring in the future.
• An assessment of the threat to Upland will describe how our community is vulnerable to future disasters.The plan will examine the threat to important buildings and infrastructure,such as police and fire stations,hospitals,roads,and utility lines.It will also examine the threat to community members, particularly vulnerable populations.
• A hazard mitigation strategy will lay out specific policy recommendations for Upland to carry out over the next five years.These recommendations will help reduce our community's threat from hazard events.
• A section on maintaining the plan will help ensure that our LHMP is kept up-to-date.This will make it easier for us to continue proactively protecting ourselves and keep the City eligible for additional funding.

What hazards will our LHMP help protect against?
The City anticipates addressing the following potential natural hazards within the plan:
• Seismic Hazards(Fault Rupture,Seismic Shaking)
• Flood(Surface Flooding,Dam and Levee Failure)
• Human-caused Hazards(Hazardous Materials Release,Landfill Subsidence,Transportation Incidents(Rail,Plane,Highway),Terrorism) • Infrastructure Failure(Energy Shortage,Power Outage) • Severe Weather(Extreme Heat,Drought,Severe Wind)
• Fire(Wildland,Urban Fire)
• Cyberattacks
Our LHMP will also look at how climate change may affect these hazards and may include other hazards that pose a threat to our community.

When will the LHMP be finalized?
The project team plans to release a first draft of the Upland LHMP for public review in Spring 2025.After members of the public provide comments and feedback, the City will revise the plan and send it to the California Office of Emergency Services and FEMA for review and approval.Once approved by these agencies,the Upland City Council will adopt the final LHMP.We hope to have the plan ready for adoption in Summer 2025,but it may be later depending on how long state and federal review takes.

Get involved!
You can get involved in preparing our LHMP in different ways:
• The City will share information about our LHMP and obtain community feedback at upcoming District Community Meetings. • The City will release a draft of the completed LHMP for public review.Please review and provide comments on this document,either at in-person meetings or in writing.
• Share about past experiences with natural hazards and how our LHMP can be the most useful.Complete an anonymous survey at: https://tinyurl.com/2k9f6saj .

• Flammable trees and landscaping next to and between houses that could cause fires to easily spread house to house
• Euclid and Foothill- draining issues during heavy rain • Water pools at West 15th and North Palomino
• Ponding on Benson which is adjacent to my home during severe rain • In the recent past,there has often been a steady stream of water flowing down the gutters, on the north side of 23rd, starting from the small drainage ditch just west of West Orange Dr N. Also,there are many places in my north Upland neighborhood where sidewalks have been lifted by tree roots, creating serious tripping hazards. I have personally tripped several times, as have several of my friends. • Euclid becomes like a river with heavy rains and water pools at various intersections. • Heavy rain causes flooding at several intersections, including Mountain and 16th.

Cleaning storm drains prior to significant rain events could mitigate some these issues. • Ponding in the street crossing of Euclid & 7th
• 13th Street between Mountain and San Antonio has very poor drainage system,the street is literally flooded in every direction on a rainy day
• Flooding along Euclid and Mountain Ave during heavy • Power lines above ground on 20th street and huge pine trees. You cannot have both • Ponding at intersection of Highland Ct. and Monterey Ave. Ponding at intersection of Sultana and 7th St. Extreme heat at 1-10 overpass on Sultana. No native plants used throughout city landscaping. Vehicular air pollution from Euclid traffic for pedestrians on Bridal Trail
• During large rain events, Euclid and Mountain avenues have significant flooding - large enough for vehicles to be swept down the street.
• Flooring on Euclid taking out a traffic lane

• Recently, I heard Rick Caruso say "what's predictable is preventable" I would ask you as a city. Are you taking care of the things that you need to take care of so that we don't have problems as citizens? As residents of Upland we don't know what we don't know about these things we expect you to know and have them taken care of. Do we have enough water in case of fires are the infrastructure systems in place. Even during the most minor wind event, we are not seeing an effective response from the cities in the utilities underground power is being shut off for days at a time so that Edison can protect their financial liability rather than repairing poor systems or underground and updating and this is just during minor wind events. I see overgrown brush everywhere definitely closer than the 200 foot radius recommended I see power lines going through trees that are not attended to and I don't know where you would begin to have the water supplies necessary to put out fires the likes of which we have recently seen. The survey seems to be more about what we're doing is individual citizens rather than what you are doing as our government to protect us. Which is the primary reason for governments existing,to protect it's citizens!!
• Publish information about and encourage hardening of homes through landscaping changes
• Trim or remove old and over grown trees
• Stop hazardous conditions before they start
• Improve native landscaping for more efficient water use to protect against drought and allow for more shade trees. Recognize our impact on migrating pollinators to keep CA good production healthy Teach and encourage urban homestead practices to help all residents feel more prepared and self-sufficient

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland What is this Handbook?
The Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) for the City of Upland features an evaluation of the City's hazards as well as a variety of corresponding mitigation actions. These actions are intended to preserve public safety, maintain critical municipal government operations and services when hazard events emerge, and empower community members to take on hazard mitigation at an individual level. This Implementation Handbook (Handbook) is intended for use by City staff and decision-makers after the LHMP is adopted. It will:
• Give clear instructions following the adoption of the LHMP. • Simplify future updates to the LHMP.
• Assist the City in preparing grant funding applications related to hazard mitigation. • Guide annual plan review actions.

How do I use this Handbook?
This Handbook can help City staff and decision-makers in several different situations. If and when the events listed below occur, consult the respective sections of this Handbook for advice on how best to proceed:
• A disaster proclamation has been issued by the Upland City Council • A disaster proclamation has been issued by the State of California • A disaster declaration has been signed by the Federal Government • I want to apply for mitigation grant funding
• Upland is undergoing its budgeting process
• Upland is holding its annual meeting of the Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee • Upland is updating the following policy and regulatory documents:
o The Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
o The Safety Element of the General Plan
o The Housing Element of the General Plan

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Take action when a disaster has been
proclaimed or declared
Disasters may be proclaimed or declared by the Upland City Council, the State of California, or the federal government. Responsibilities may differ depending on who proclaims or declares the disaster. If multiple organizations proclaim or declare a disaster, consult all applicable lists.

Local emergency proclaimed by the Upland City Council
If the Upland City Council (or the Director of Emergency Services, if the City Council is not in session) proclaims a Local Emergency, take the following steps:
❑ Update Attachment 1 with information about the disaster. Include information about cumulative damage, including any damage outside of Upland. ❑ Discuss opportunities for local assistance with the representatives from the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES).
❑ If the disaster damages local infrastructure or City-owned facilities, repair or rebuild the structure to be more resilient, following applicable hazard mitigation actions. A list of actions, organized by hazards, is included in Attachment 4. ❑ Chapter 6 of the Upland LHMP states that the City should consider updating the LHMP if a disaster causes a loss of life in the community, even if there is no state disaster proclamation or federal disaster declaration that includes part or all of the city. If there is a loss of life in Upland, consider updating the LHMP. Consult the section on updating the LHMP in this Handbook for details.

Disaster proclaimed by the State of California
If the State of California proclaims a disaster for Upland, or an area that includes part or all of Upland, take the following steps:
❑ Update Attachment 1 with information about the disaster. Include information about cumulative damage, including any damage outside of Upland. ❑ Collaborate with representatives from Cal OES to assess the damage from the event. ❑ Discuss opportunities for local assistance with representatives from Cal OES. ❑ If the disaster damages local infrastructure or City-owned facilities, repair or rebuild the structure to be more resilient, following applicable hazard mitigation actions. A list of actions, organized by hazards, is included in Attachment 4. ❑ If the disaster may escalate into a federal disaster declaration, begin any necessary coordination with representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
❑ Chapter 6 of the Upland LHMP states that the City should consider updating the LHMP if a disaster leads to a state disaster proclamation or federal disaster declaration that includes part or all of Upland, even if there is no loss of life. Consider updating the LHMP.

Consult the section on updating the LHMP in this Handbook for details.

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Disaster declared by the Federal Government
If the federal government declares a disaster for Upland, or any area that includes part or all of Upland, take the following steps:
❑ Update Attachment 1 with information about the disaster. Include information about cumulative damage, including any damage outside of Upland. ❑ Collaborate with Cal OES and FEMA representatives to assess the damage. ❑ Determine if Upland will be eligible for public assistance funds related to the federal disaster declaration. These funds can be used to reimburse the City for response and recovery activities. If the City is eligible, work with FEMA and Cal OES representatives to enact the necessary requirements and receive funding. ❑ If the disaster damages local infrastructure or City-owned facilities, repair or rebuild the structure to be more resilient, following applicable hazard mitigation actions. A list of actions, organized by hazards, is included in Attachment 4. ❑ The Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) is a FEMA program that helps fund hazard mitigation activities after a disaster event. Upland may be eligible for funding because of the federal disaster declaration, although not all activities may meet the program's requirements. If Upland is eligible, work with FEMA to apply for this funding. ❑ Chapter 6 of the Upland LHMP states that the City should consider updating the LHMP if a disaster leads to a state disaster proclamation or federal disaster declaration that includes part or all of Upland, even if there is no loss of life. Consider updating the LHMP.

Consult the section on updating the LHMP in this Handbook for details.

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Apply for hazard mitigation grant funding
There are three potential grant funding programs that FEMA administers for hazard mitigation activities:
1) Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)73 2) Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA)
3) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP)
BRIC and FMA programs are available to communities with an LHMP that complies with FEMA guidelines and has been adopted within the past five years. This section discusses the BRIC and FMA programs and how to apply for them.

The HGMP program is available for communities that are part of a federal disaster declaration.

The HMGP was previously discussed above, under the "Disaster declared by the Federal Government" subsection of"What do I do when a disaster has been proclaimed or declared?" Apply for Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)will support states, local communities, tribes, and territories as they undertake hazard mitigation projects, reducing the risks they face from disasters and natural hazards. BRIC is a FEMA pre-disaster hazard mitigation program that replaced the Pre-Disaster Mitigation (PDM) program.

The BRIC program's guiding principles are supporting communities through capability- and capacity-building, encouraging, and enabling innovation, promoting partnerships, enabling large projects, maintaining flexibility, and providing consistency.

Development projects must be identified in a hazard mitigation plan that meets FEMA guidelines and has been adopted within the past five years. When applying to this program, review the list of hazard mitigation actions in Attachment 4 to see which projects may be eligible. Planning efforts for communities that lack a valid hazard mitigation plan may be eligible for funding if the effort would create a valid hazard mitigation plan. All BRIC grant applications are processed through the State. To learn more, consult with Cal OES representatives or visit the FEMA webpage for the program. At the time of writing, this webpage is available at https://www.fema.gov/grants/mitiqation/buildinq-resilient-infrastructure-communities .

To apply:
❑ Confirm that the program is currently accepting funding applications. Check with representatives from Cal OES or consult the Cal OES webpage on the BRIC program.

At the time of writing, this webpage is available at
https://www.fema.gov/grants/mitigation/building-resilient-infrastructure-communities . ❑ Identify the actions from the hazard mitigation strategy (see Attachment 4) that call on the City to pursue funding or list grants as a potential funding source. Confirm that the actions are consistent with the requirements of the BRIC grant. ❑ Coordinate with Cal OES representatives to compile and submit materials for the grant application.
73 The BRIC Program still exists; however, it is currently not being funded.

D5 Page 441 of 511

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Apply for Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA)
The FMA grant program is a competitive, national program that awards funding for physical development projects and planning efforts that mitigate against long-term damage from flooding. The funding is only available to communities participating in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), which Upland currently does. Communities must also have a valid hazard mitigation plan that meets FEMA guidelines to be eligible, and all projects must be consistent with the list of actions in the hazard mitigation strategy. When applying to this program, review the list of hazard mitigation actions in Attachment 4 to see which projects may be eligible. As with the BRIC program, applications for the FMA program must be processed through the State. To view more information, consult with Cal OES representatives or visit the FEMA webpage on the program. At the time of writing, this webpage is available at https://www.fema.gov/grants/mitigation/floods .

To apply:
❑ Confirm that the program is currently accepting funding applications. Check with representatives from Cal OES or consult the Cal OES webpage on the FMA program.

At the time of writing, this webpage is available at
https://www.fema.gov/grants/mitigation/floods .
❑ Identify the actions from the hazard mitigation strategy (see Attachment 4) that call on the City to pursue funding or list grants as a potential funding source. Confirm that the actions are consistent with the requirements of the FMA grant. ❑ Coordinate with Cal OES representatives to compile and submit materials for the grant application.

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Incorporate hazard mitigation planning into
Upland's budgeting process
Upland's budget process is an ideal opportunity to secure funding for hazard mitigation actions and to ensure that hazard mitigation efforts are incorporated into the City's fiscal priorities.

Upland currently operates on an annual budget cycle that runs from July 1st to June 30th.

During this process, City staff should take the following steps to incorporate hazard mitigation into Upland's annual budget:
❑ Include hazard mitigation activities into Upland's list of Capital Improvement Projects (CIP). Review the list of hazard mitigation actions in Attachment 4 and identify the projects that can be included in the CIP or can support efforts within the CIP. ❑ Review the risk and threat assessments in the LHMP (Chapter 3 and Chapter 4) to ensure that all items in the CIP list are planned, designed, and constructed to minimize the threat from hazard events.
❑ Identify opportunities to identify stand-alone hazard mitigation actions through the annual budget process. Include appropriate items from Attachment 4 in the budget as stand-alone line items, particularly items that the Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee (Planning Team) considered a high priority.
❑ Set aside staff to conduct hazard mitigation activities, including time to participate in Planning Team meetings and research, prepare, and submit BRIC and FMA grant opportunities (consult the "I Want to Apply for Mitigation Grant Funding" section above). ❑ Ensure hazard mitigation activities are reflected in each department's priorities and earmarked time for specific goals.

D7 Page 443 of 511

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Plan the annual meeting of the Upland Hazard
Mitigation Planning Committee
The hazard mitigation planning process brings together representatives from multiple City departments as well as other relevant stakeholders. It provides a forum to discuss the hazards in Upland and how to mitigate them effectively. As mentioned in Chapter 6 of the LHMP, the Planning Committee should meet at least once each year, beginning a year after the LHMP is adopted. During these meetings, the Planning Committee should discuss implementation progress and integration of hazard mitigation actions in other City documents. At these meetings, the Planning Committee can review the status of the hazard mitigation actions and discuss whether completed or in-progress actions are working as expected. These meetings also allow the Planning Committee to strategically plan for the upcoming year.

It may help the Planning Committee to meet early in the year, in advance of annual budget activities. Attachment 3 contains an example of a Planning Committee Meeting Agenda.

The annual meeting should include representatives from City departments and other organizations that originally prepared the LHMP. Representatives from other relevant organizations should also be invited. During the preparation of the current LHMP, the following individuals were part of the Planning Committee:

This also allows Planning Team members the opportunity to review the actions in the hazard mitigation strategy (Attachment 4) and ensure that they are implemented as intended.

D9 Page 445 of 511

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Regularly maintain Upland policy and
regulatory documentation
If Upland is updating the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP), the Safety Element or Housing Element of the General Plan, or the Zoning Code, consult the following applicable section.

Maintenance of the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
All LHMPs should be updated every five years. This helps keep the plan up to date and ensures that it reflects the most recent guidance, requirements, science, and best practices.An updated LHMP also helps keep Upland eligible for hazard mitigation grants that require a valid, recent LHMP (see "I Want to Apply for Mitigation Grant Funding"), along with an increased amount of post-disaster recovery funds.

The update process for the LHMP takes approximately one year. To ensure that a new LHMP comes into effect before the previous one expires, the update process should begin no later than four years after the plan is adopted. Updates may occur sooner at the City's discretion.

Potential reasons for updating the LHMP sooner may include a state disaster proclamation or federal disaster declaration that covers part or all of Upland, or if a disaster leads to a loss of life in Upland (see the"What to Do When a Disaster Has Been Proclaimed or Declared"section), as discussed in Chapter 6 of the LHMP.

Take the following steps to update the LHMP:

Assemble the Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee
❑ Convene a Planning Team meeting no later than four years after the LHMP is adopted.

Invite the regular Planning Team members, along with representatives from other organizations that may have a role to play in the update process. ❑ Review the current status of mitigation actions, including if there are any that are not being implemented as planned or are not working as expected. Determine if there have been any changes in hazard events, regulations, best practices, or other items that should be incorporated into an updated LHMP.
❑ Decide if there is a need for a technical consultant to assist with the LHMP update and conduct consultant selection activities if needed. If a consultant is desired, the selection process should begin a few months before the update begins. ❑ Create and implement a community engagement strategy based on the strategy prepared for the existing LHMP. Describe in-person and online engagement strategies and materials, including ideas for meetings and workshops, draft community surveys, content for websites and press releases, and other materials that may be useful.

Update the risk and threat assessments
❑ Review and update the risk assessment to reflect the most recent conditions in Upland.

Consider recent hazard events, new science associated with hazards and climate change, new development and land use patterns, and other recent changes in local conditions.

D10 Page 446 of 511

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland ❑ Evaluate the status of all key facilities. Update this list if new facilities have been constructed or if existing facilities have been decommissioned. Re-assess the threat to key facilities.
❑ Review the demographics of community residents and update the threat assessment for vulnerable populations and other community members.
❑ Assess any changes to the threat to all other community assets, including key services, other facilities, and economic drivers.

Update the mitigation actions
❑ Update the existing hazard mitigation actions to reflect actions in progress. Remove actions that have been completed or revise them to increase their effectiveness. Revise actions that have been abandoned or delayed by making them more feasible or remove them from the list of mitigation actions if they are no longer appropriate for Upland. ❑ Develop mitigation actions to improve the status of hazard mitigation activities in Upland by addressing any issues not covered by the existing LHMP. ❑ The ability to expand current mitigation capabilities will generally be reliant upon the budgeting allocated for each department/program for that fiscal year. The level at which these programs may or may not be expanded upon, will be dependent upon the amount of funding received. FEMA has released a series of guides over the past few years which highlight some of the ways in which jurisdictions can expand mitigation. Some strategies for increasing current mitigation capabilities may include:
o City should actively identify, adopt, and enforce the most current set of development codes and standards available. Strongly encouraging new development to be constructed to higher standards than currently required, increasing resilience within the community.
o Engaging parts of the community that may not be actively involved in mitigation efforts.
o Expanding the number and types of organizations involved in mitigation planning and implementation, increasing both efficiency and bandwidth. o Fostering new relationships to bring underrepresented populations and partners to the hazard mitigation planning process.
o During the annual LHMP review, the HMPC should look for opportunities to fund and expand/enhance the effectiveness of current mitigation actions. o During annual budgeting processes, the City should identify new funding sources (bonds, grants, assessment districts, etc.) that can be used to support existing capabilities enhancements.
❑ Ensure that the feedback from the community engagement activities is reflected in the new and updated mitigation actions.

D11 Page 447 of 511

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland Review and adopt the updated plan
Review the other chapters and appendices of the LHMP to reflect any changes made through the update process.

Release the updated plan to the Planning Team members and revise the plan to reflect any comments by Planning Team members.

Distribute the updated Plan to any appropriate external agencies not included in the Planning Team and revise the plan as appropriate in response to any comments.

Release the updated plan publicly for review and make revisions to the plan to reflect public comments.
❑ Submit the plan to the Upland City Council for adoption. ❑ Submit the plan to Cal OES and FEMA for approval and make any necessary revisions.

Maintenance of the Safety Element of the General Plan
The Safety Element is a required component of Upland's General Plan. It can be updated as a stand-alone activity or as part of a more comprehensive process to update multiple sections or all of the General Plan. The Safety Element does not need to be updated on any set schedule, but updates should be frequent enough for the element to remain current and applicable to the community.

Local communities can incorporate their LHMP into their Safety Element as allowed under Section 65302.6 of the California Government Code, as long as the LHMP meets minimum federal guidelines. This allows communities to be eligible for an increased share of post-disaster relief funding from the State if a hazard situation occurs, as per Section 8685.9 of the California Government Code.

Take the following steps to incorporate the LHMP into the Safety Element:

Incorporate new requirements into the Safety Element and ensure that the LHMP and Safety Element are consistent
Review the requirements for Safety Elements in Section 65302(g) of the California Government Code and for LHMPs in Section 65302.6. Ensure that both documents meet all state requirements.
_ Ensure that the information in both plans does not contradict each other and that any inconsistencies are corrected to use the most accurate and appropriate information. This information should include a community description, a risk assessment, and a threat assessment.

Ensure that the policies in the Safety Element support the LHMP and provide a planning framework for specific hazard mitigation actions.

D12 Page 448 of 511

City of Upland
Maintenance of the Housing Element of the General Plan
The Housing Element is a required component of Upland's General Plan. Section 65583 of the California Government Code requires a Housing Element to analyze and plan for new residential growth in a community, including residential growth for households with an annual income below the area median. Like an LHMP, state regulations require the Housing Elements to be updated regularly to remain current and valid.

The Housing Element is not required to contain any information or policies related to hazards, although it may include policies that address retrofitting homes to improve resiliency. However, state law links the regular schedule of Housing Element updates to mandatory revisions to other General Plan elements. For example, Section 65302(g)(2) of the California Government Code requires that communities that update their Housing Element on or after January 1, 2009, also update their Safety Element to include specific information and policies related to flood protection. As the LHMP is incorporated into the Safety Element, updates to the Housing Element may indirectly trigger updates to the LHMP.

To update the LHMP concurrent with updates to the Housing Element, take the following steps:

Ensure that the LHMP meets any new requirements for the Safety Element that may be triggered by a Housing Element update
❑ Section 65302(g) of the California Government Code lists several requirements for the Safety Element of the General Plan. Some of these requirements are triggered by updates to the Housing Element. Check to see if there are any new requirements of this nature. Note that the requirement is linked to the new Housing Element's adoption date, not the date the update process begins.
❑ Because the LHMP is incorporated into the Safety Element, any amendments or revisions to the Safety Element triggered by the Housing Element update may be made directly in the LHMP. Requirements triggered by the Housing Element are unlikely to require a full rewrite of the LHMP, but the process should fully involve the Planning Team and include appropriate community engagement.
❑ Adopt the updated LHMP and incorporate it into the Safety Element. If necessary, amend the Safety Element to ensure the two documents are consistent (review the "Incorporate New Requirements Into the Safety Element, and Ensure that the LHMP is Consistent with the Safety Element" subsection above).

Maintenance of the Upland Floodplain Management Ordinance Upland's Floodplain Management Ordinance contains a set of standards that guide land uses and development in the community. These standards include where different types of buildings and land use activities may be located, how these structures must be built, and how they must be operated or maintained. This ordinance includes requirements that structures (particularly new structures or those undergoing substantial renovations) incorporate hazard-resistant features, be located outside the most hazard-prone areas, or take other steps to reduce hazard vulnerability.

All communities in California are required to adopt the minimum state Building Standard Code (BSC), which includes some hazard mitigation requirements for new or significantly renovated structures. The BSC is generally updated every three years, with supplemental code updates D13 Page 449 of 511

2026 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan City of Upland halfway into each update cycle. Ordinance 1427 "Model Floodplain Management Ordinance for Special Flood Hazards" contains building regulations and incorporates the BSC. Other sections of the Code adopt additional standards as desired by the City that adapts the BSC to Upland's local context.

As a participant in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), Upland is required to incorporate Floodplain Management Requirements in its Zoning Code, which is contained within this ordinance. These regulations establish standards for developing and operating facilities within mapped flood-prone areas. Other sections of the Upland Municipal Code may include additional standards related to hazard mitigation activities.

With the exception of the Floodplain Management Regulations and the minimum standards in the BSC, Upland is not required to incorporate hazard-related requirements in the Municipal Code. However, the Municipal Code is an effective tool for implementing hazard mitigation measures related to the siting, construction, and operation of new buildings and other structures. Substantial updates to the Municipal Code, including the Buildings and Construction and Zoning Code sections, should be done in a way that is consistent with the LHMP.

Include hazard-related requirements in applicable sections of the Upland Code of Ordinances
If the BSC is being updated, evaluate the hazard-related requirements of all sections in the new BSC. Identify any areas where it may be feasible to add or revise standards to help reduce the threat from hazard events. Ensure that these standards are consistent with the LHMP. Consider whether standards should be applied to all structures, to specific types of structures, or to structures in a limited area (such as a flood plain).

If the Zoning Code is being updated, ensure that all requirements do not expose community members or community assets to an excessive risk of harm. Where feasible, use the requirements to strengthen community resiliency to hazard events. Ensure that these standards are consistent with the LHMP. Consider possible standards such as overlay zones that strengthen zoning requirements in hazard-prone areas, landscaping, and grading requirements that buffer development from hazards, siting, and design standards that make structures more resilient, and other strategies as appropriate.

FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:ROBERT D.DALQUEST,DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A DEDICATION PLAQUE AND TEXT WITHIN THE TOM THOMAS

MAGNOLIA PLAZA LOCATED ON SECOND AVENUE IN DOWNTOWN UPLAND RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the Dedication Plaque and text within the Tom Thomas Magnolia Plaza located on the southerly support column of the Plaza's gateway on Second Avenue in Downtown Upland.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of following an established policy in the dedication of public facilities after individuals or organizations who have made substantial contributions to enhance the quality of life in the City of Upland.

BACKGROUND
The Tom Thomas Magnolia Plaza Project (the "Plaza Project") converts a 0.69-acre vacant lot, located between Second Avenue and Third Avenue, along the Pacific Electric Trail into a central urban plaza to improve the public realm in Downtown. The Plaza Project will be a central gathering place and accommodate small Downtown community events and activities,as well as a trailhead for users of the Pacific Electric Trail.

On April 25,2022,the City Council adopted Resolution No.6649 approving the commemorative naming of the Plaza as the Tom Thomas Magnolia Plaza and the band stage as the Roman"Roach"Foronda Band Stage. This was done in accordance with Resolution 6105, which was adopted in 2012 by the City Council to provide a consistent policy and process governing the naming or dedication of public facilities and parks,and the placement of memorial objects in public facilities.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Staff is seeking City Council approval on the proposed Dedication Plaque and text for the Tom Thomas Magnolia Plaza.The Dedication Plaque memorializes the City Council's dedication of the Plaza in the memory of Tom Thomas.

Resolution 6105 provides a section regarding "plaques, markers and memorials" requested to be in a City facility, park or on City Premises. The Dedication Plaque and text are required to be approved by the City Council.

Attached as Exhibit A is an AI generated simulation of the Dedication Plaque and proposed text that Staff has prepared for the City Council's consideration. The plaque will be bronze and is 18-inches wide by 24-inches tall and includes raised lettering.The Dedication Plaque will be placed on the southerly support column of the Plaza's gateway located on Second Avenue,just north of the Pacific Electric Trail(See Exhibit B).

The Dedication Plaque is the last remaining item on the approved plans for the contractor to procure and install. The following guidelines apply to the Dedication Plaque under Resolution 6105:
• Must be in accordance with City Standards. The location, size and writing on plaques require approval by the designated City staff.
• Designed to blend with and complement the existing Park or Facility. • Must be made of bronze or any other pre-approved material by the City of Upland. • Each plaque,marker or memorial request will be submitted to the Director prior to submission to the City for approval.

The proposed location,design,materials and size of the Dedication Plaque comply with the guidelines in Resolution 6105 for plaques,markers and memorials. Staff recommends that the City Council review the Dedication Plaque and text and provide any suggested edits and approve the Dedication Plaque by minute action.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Approval of the Dedication Plaque is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA)pursuant to Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines, which concerns the organizational or administrative activities of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACTS
The cost of fabricating and installing the Dedication Plaque is part of the scope of work in the construction contract and budget approved by the City Council for the Tom Thomas Magnolia Plaza Project.

ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

CEQA:Not a Project.

PREPARED BY:ROBERT D.DALQUEST,DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR

DIANE COTTO,HOUSING MANAGER
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTING A REPLACEMENT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A HOME-

PROGRAM INCOME APPLICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt a replacement Resolution authorizing submittal of an application to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for the use of HOME Program Income Funds. The Resolution will replace the existing HOME Program Income authorization resolution adopted on May 12,2025.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of creating and preserving affordable housing opportunities for lower- income households.

BACKGROUND
HOME Program Income (PI) is money returned to the City from prior HOME-funded activities, such as loan repayments for Home Improvement Program loans or Mortgage Assistance Program loans. HCD approval is required before the City can reuse these funds for eligible housing activities.

On May 12, 2025, the City Council authorized a HOME PI application for homebuyer assistance and affordable housing acquisition and rehabilitation.HCD has since asked the City to use its current PI-only resolution template for a replacement resolution that identifies the funds on hand, expected receipts over the next four years, the requested amount,program locations,and authorized signers.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
HOME PI Funds and Proposed Allocation
Acquisition and Rehabilitation is no longer an eligible category for this application. Therefore, staff recommends allocating all available HOME PI to the First-Time Homebuyer Program,with 90%designated for direct homebuyer assistance and 10%available for eligible administration costs.

As of September 7,2026,The City's HOME PI account balance is$2,488,101.72. The City also anticipates receiving approximately$948,782 in additional program income over the next four years. Any new program income received during this four-year period may also be used to support the Mortgage Assistance Program, as needed, subject to funding availability and applicable HOME requirements.

The current HOME PI balance would be allocated as follows:

Proposed activity Allocation Working amount
Mortgage Assistance Program 90% $2,239,291.55 Eligible Program Administration 10% $248,810.17 Total 100% $2,488,101.73
Mortgage assistance would help eligible households purchase homes in Upland. No funding would be allocated to Acquisition and Rehabilitation. The 10% administration allocation would cover eligible costs of administering the Mortgage Assistance Program.

The replacement Resolution authorizes the City's HOME Program Income application to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), approving the proposed housing activities, and authorizing designated City officials to sign the required documents. The resolution will replace the existing HOME Program

Income authorization adopted on May 12,2025.The Mayor would sign the HOME Standard Agreement and related contracts.The City Manager,Development Services Director,or Housing Manager,or their designee would sign draw requests and other HOME forms.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) because the action will not result in a physical change to the environment.Any required environmental review will be completed before HOME funds are committed to a specific property.

FISCAL IMPACTS
The Mortgage Assistance Program and its administration would use HOME PI funds and four(4)years of anticipated receipts. Of the total $2,488,101.72, 90% ($2,239,291.55) would fund direct homebuyer assistance and 10% ($248,8190.17)would be available for eligible administration costs.

ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

CEQA:Not a Project.

ERIC DIVINCENZO,POLICE SERGEANT
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE ADDING CHAPTER 10.74 TO TITLE 10 OF THE

UPLAND MUNICIPAL CODE TO ESTABLISH REGULATIONS FOR ELECTRIC

BICYCLES
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council hold first reading by title only, waive further reading, and introduce an Ordinance adding Chapter 10.74 of the Upland Municipal Code to establish regulations for electric bicycles and other electric mobility devices.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of improving public safety.

BACKGROUND
The use of electric bicycles and similar electric mobility devices has increased throughout Southern California, including within the City of Upland.While lawful e-bikes provide a useful form of transportation,their increased use has created public safety concerns involving riders operating on sidewalks, in parks, on public property, near pedestrians,and in other areas not intended for motorized or high-speed travel.These concerns are further complicated by modified e-bikes, electric motorcycles,and similar devices that are often referred to as"e-bikes"but do not meet the definition of an electric bicycle under the California Vehicle Code.

The proposed ordinance would establish clear local rules by prohibiting the operation of e-bikes and electric mobility devices on public sidewalks and most City-owned or City-controlled property, while preserving the lawful use of compliant e-bikes on public roadways and designated bicycle lanes,and the use of Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes on the Pacific Electric Trail.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The primary issue being faced is balancing the legitimate transportation value of lawful e-bikes with the City's responsibility to protect pedestrians and maintain safe use of public spaces. Although many roadway violations involving e-bikes can be addressed under the California Vehicle Code, local regulation is needed for areas such as sidewalks, parks, civic areas, public facilities, and other City-owned or City-controlled property. The proposed ordinance is intended to close that gap by clearly identifying where e-bikes and similar electric mobility devices may and may not be operated within the City.

The Ordinance also addresses the growing distinction between lawful e-bikes and modified or noncompliant electric devices that may be capable of higher speeds or may function more like electric motorcycles. By defining electric bicycles by reference to the California Vehicle Code and separately addressing electric mobility devices and noncompliant devices, the ordinance provides clearer guidance for enforcement personnel, riders, parents, and the public.The ordinance preserves lawful e-bike use on public roadways,designated bicycle lanes,and the use of Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes on the Pacific Electric Trail, while prohibiting use in locations where pedestrian safety and public property concerns are more significant. The Ordinance also includes a parent and guardian responsibility provision,allowing enforcement when a parent,legal guardian,or responsible adult authorizes,permits,or knowingly allows a minor to operate a device in violation of the chapter.

Violations of the chapter are generally treated as infractions and may be addressed through criminal citation or administrative citation,with escalating fines for repeat violations.For juvenile violations,the Ordinance allows parent or guardian notification and authorizes the City to establish an education or diversion program, including a safety- course option for eligible first-time juvenile offenders.

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
Adoption of the proposed Ordinance is not expected to create a significant fiscal impact. Any costs associated with implementation would likely be limited to public education, staff time, officer training, and the purchase and installation of signs in areas where e-bike and electric mobility device restrictions are posted.

The ordinance may result in some revenue from fines or penalties associated with violations.

ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

CEQA:Not a Project.

ORDINANCE NO.

REGULATIONS FOR ELECTRIC BICYCLES AND OTHER

ELECTRIC MOBILITY DEVICES
WHEREAS, the City of Upland has authority under Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution to enact local police power regulations to protect the public health, safety, and welfare; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the increased use of bicycles, electric bicycles, electric off-highway motorcycles, and similar electric mobility devices within the City creates a need for clear local regulations to protect pedestrians, riders, motorists, park users, trail users, and the general public; and
WHEREAS, the City has received complaints and observed incidents involving the operation of electric bicycles and similar electric mobility devices in a manner that creates risks to public safety, including excessive speed, inattentive operation, operation in areas not designed for such devices, and conflicts with pedestrians and other roadway users; and WHEREAS, accidents involving electric bicycles and other electric mobility devices may result in serious injuries to operators, pedestrians, and other roadway users and may create substantial demands on public safety resources; and
WHEREAS, the City has a substantial interest in protecting pedestrians, preserving public property, maintaining safe use of parks and public facilities, and establishing clear local rules for the operation of electric bicycles and electric mobility devices within city limits; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the regulations adopted by this ordinance are necessary to promote public safety, prevent unsafe operation, and provide appropriate enforcement remedies, while preserving the lawful operation of electric bicycles on highways, designated bicycle lanes, and the Pacific Electric Trail where such operation is permitted under the California Vehicle Code and this chapter; and
WHEREAS, nothing in this chapter is intended to conflict with the California Vehicle Code or to limit enforcement of any applicable state law.

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:ROBERT D.DALQUEST,DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR SUBJECT: URGENCY ORDINANCE ADDING CHAPTER 15.34 TO THE UPLAND MUNICIPAL CODE

TO STREAMLINE PERMITTING OF ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council read the title of the ordinance,waive further reading,and adopt,by 4/5 vote, an Urgency Ordinance to establish an expedited and streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations,pursuant to Government Code section 65850.7, declaring the urgency thereof, and making a determination of exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal to periodically consider changes to the City's Municipal Code as issues arise or State legislation mandates amendments.

BACKGROUND
State law requires that a city adopt a streamlined and non-discretionary process for vehicle charging stations.

Government Code Section 65850.7 was chaptered into State law in October 2015 and requires jurisdictions with a population of less than 200,000 to establish procedures for expedited non-discretionary streamlined processes for permitting electric vehicle charging stations. Under Section 65850.7, a jurisdiction must adopt an ordinance for the expedited,streamlined process and establish a checklist of requirements with which a permit application for an electric vehicle charging station will be eligible for expedited review.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Government Code section 65850.7 is intended to remove unreasonable barriers to the installation of electric vehicle charging stations and not unreasonably restrict the ability of homeowners and business concerns to install electric vehicle charging stations. An electric vehicle charging station is any level of"electric vehicle supply equipment" station which delivers electricity from a source outside an electric vehicle into a plug-in electric vehicle.

Consistent with Government Code sections 65850.7 and 65850.71, the Urgency Ordinance adds Chapter 15.34 (Electric Vehicle Charging Facilities)to the Upland Municipal Code and requires the Building Official to implement and maintain an expedited, streamlined permitting process and a checklist of all information and requirements necessary for an electric vehicle charging station application to qualify for expedited review. The Urgency Ordinance references the most current Electric Vehicle Charging Station Permitting Guidebook published by the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, or any successor State publication or guidance in developing the City's adopted checklist.

The Building&Safety Division currently processes most electric vehicle charging systems within three(3)working days. The exception would be a large multi-vehicle commercial charging station that requires additional plan review time to review all required elements. The adoption of this Urgency Ordinance will not change or alter the current business practice of completing the plan review process and have a permit ready to be issued in a timely manner.The Building&Safety Division has created a draft checklist in accordance with the legislation and once finalized will be placed on the Division's webpage.

Staff recommend that immediate adoption is necessary to eliminate uncertainty affecting current and future permit applications, ensure that such applications are processed uniformly and without unlawful barriers under objective health and safety standards, avoid continued delay in the installation of code compliant charging infrastructure, and reduce the risk that judicial proceedings may disrupt the City's permitting operations or divert public resources.

Therefore,allowing the Urgency Ordinance to become effective immediately,rather than after the ordinary statutory period,is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace,health,and safety.

The Urgency Ordinance will require a four-fifths vote of the City Council. The City Attorney has reviewed the Urgency Ordinance and recommends approval as to form and content.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Staff recommends that the Urgency Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3), 15060(c)(2),and 15060(c)(3). It can be seen with certainty that the Urgency Ordinance only establishes an expedited process for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations and does not propose any activity that may have a significant effect on the environment,nor will it cause a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACTS
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. The primary purpose of this ordinance is to reflect the current operation of the law in California and the City of Upland,which requires implementation of a streamlined and non- discretionary permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations. Permits fees are collected and cover staff's costs in processing the permit.

ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

CEQA: Determined to be Exempt.

ORDINANCE NO.

6. The City shall allow electronic submittal of applications and supporting documentation covered by this Chapter and shall accept electronic signatures on all forms, applications, plans, and other documentation in lieu of wet signatures.

E. Permit Review.

1. The Building Official shall review an electric vehicle charging station application solely to determine whether the proposed installation meets applicable health and safety requirements of local, State, and federal law. Local requirements shall be limited to standards necessary to ensure that the charging station will not have a specific, adverse impact upon public health or safety. The Building Official retains authority to identify and address higher-priority life-safety conditions.

2. Upon confirmation that the application and supporting documents meet the requirements of the City's adopted checklist and applicable health and safety standards, the Building Official shall approve the application and issue all necessary permits or authorizations in accordance with California Government Code section 65850.7.

3. If the Building Official finds, based on substantial evidence, that the electric vehicle charging station could have a specific, adverse impact upon public health or safety, the City may require the applicant to apply for a conditional use permit pursuant to Chapter 17, but only to the extent authorized by California Government Code section 65850.7. The Building Official shall issue any written determination requiring a conditional use permit no later than:

Ordinance No.

(a) Twenty business days after the application is deemed complete if the application is for at least one, but not more than 25, electric vehicle charging stations at a single site.
(b) Forty business days after the application is deemed complete if the application is for more than 25 electric vehicle charging stations at a single site.

If the City does not approve the application or issue a written determination requiring a conditional use permit within the applicable period, the application shall be deemed approved when all conditions for deemed approval under California Government Code section 65850.71 have been satisfied.

4. A decision of the Building Official pursuant to California Government Code section 65850.7 may be appealed to the Planning Commission within the period established by applicable City procedures. The appeal shall be submitted in writing to the Planning Division. The Planning Division shall schedule the appeal for consideration at a public meeting and transmit the application materials and a report stating the Building Official's decision and reasons to the Planning Commission. No separate noticed public hearing is required unless otherwise required by law. If the Planning Commission finds that substantial evidence does not support a specific, adverse impact upon public health or safety, it shall direct issuance of the applicable permits. If the Planning Commission finds that substantial evidence supports such an impact, it may require a conditional use permit only to the extent authorized by State law.

5. Notwithstanding Chapter 17, the City shall not deny a conditional use permit for an electric vehicle charging station unless the Planning Commission makes written findings, based on substantial evidence in the record, that the proposed installation would have a specific, adverse impact upon public health or safety and that no feasible method exists to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid that impact. The findings shall state the basis for rejecting potentially feasible alternatives. A denial may be appealed to the City Council in the manner provided by Chapter 17.

6. Any condition imposed by the Building Official, Planning Commission, or City Council shall be designed to mitigate the identified specific, adverse impact upon public health or safety at the lowest cost possible.

7. The City shall not condition approval of an electric vehicle charging station permit on approval of the charging station by an association, as defined in California Civil Code section 4080.

F. Additional Objective Health and Safety Standards for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations.
