Item Number: 1
City Council / Board of Directors
Public Hearing(s)
Meeting of: May 2, 2023
Submitted By:

Brian Gengler, City Engineer

Subject:

Approve three state funded projects in Cycle 11 of the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and Notices of Exemptions
Recommendation:

That the Honorable City Council:

1. Open and conduct a public hearing, receive testimony regarding the proposed projects; and

2. Approve the following projects and respective notices of exemptions:

Traffic Signal Installation at Village Drive and Puesta Del Sol Drive Project, Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon Installation Project, and Retroreflective Borders for Backplates of 96 Traffic Signals.

Fiscal Impact:

This action will not result in a fiscal impact. The grant funds for each project will be included in the Fiscal Year 2023/2024 Budget.

Strategic Plan Goal:

This project aligns with Goal E, Strategy 1 in the City of Victorville Strategic Plan 2020- 2023, “Invest in Infrastructure” and “Implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program to meet community needs” as the traffic improvements will improve safety for pedestrians and drivers throughout the City.

Background:

The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), administered by Caltrans, provides grant funding for traffic safety improvement projects. The focus of the HSIP is on infrastructure projects with nationally recognized crash reduction factors. HSIP projects must be identified on the basis of crash experience (traffic accidents), crash potential, crash rate, or other data supported means.
3 0
8 5
The City has received grant funding for several HSIP projects in the past, including:
•Guardrail replacements at 13 locations.
•A new traffic signal at Village Dr. / Tawney Ridge Lane. •A new traffic signal at Mojave Dr. / Condor Dr.
•Upgrades to traffic signals at five intersections on Seventh St.

In September of 2022 City staff submitted applications to Caltrans for four projects for the Cycle 11 HSIP call for projects. On March 9, 2023, Caltrans notified the City that three projects were approved for HSIP grant funding and the required minimum match amounts as shown below.
•A new traffic signal at Village Dr. / Puesta Del Sol Dr. $526,500.00 Minimum required match: $98,500.00
•Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons at 9 school crosswalks $149,310.00 Minimum required match: $0.00
•Retroreflective Borders for Backplates of 96 Traffic Signals $110,440.00 Minimum required match: $0.00
Please refer to Attachment A, location maps for the projects and Attachment B, the Caltrans notice of funding for the projects. One of the projects, a new traffic signal at Village Dr. / Clovis Rd., with a grant request of $576,000.00 was not approved for funding.

Discussion:

The next step needed to move the three funded HSIP projects forward is to approve each project in conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines.

Caltrans requires CEQA approval before the funds are authorized for construction. This authorization is required before each project can be advertised for construction.

CEQA requires that public agencies review all projects to consider their potential direct or indirect environmental impacts on the environment and to establish whether such impacts can be reduced or avoided through mitigation or by pursuing other alternatives. The California Code of Regulations Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3 provides guidelines for implementation of CEQA. Article 5 of such guidelines identifies certain types of projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which shall be exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Pursuant to Article 5, Section 15061, after determining that a project is exempt from CEQA, and once the project is approved by its governing body, a Notice of Exemption may be recorded to initiate a 35-day statute of limitations for any appeals submitted from a party feeling a categorical exemption is being improperly used to limit the possibility of legal challenge.

The scope of each project is as follows:

1. Installation of Traffic Signal at Village Drive and Puesta del Sol Project This project will install a traffic signal to upgrade the intersection at Village Drive and Puesta Del Sol Drive from a 2-way stop to an actuated traffic signal to improve overall 3 0
8 5
safety of the intersection. This signal will be installed at an intersection with existing ADA ramps, conduits, and sidewalks.

2. Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons Project
This project consists of installing Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons at 9 existing uncontrolled crosswalks located at or next to schools.

3. Retroreflective Borders to Traffic Signal Backplates This project will retrofit the backplates of all 96 city-owned traffic signals. The back plate which is located behind the red, yellow, and green lights on a traffic signal will be retrofitted by installing yellow retroreflective borders to improve visibility.

Pursuant to CEQA requirements described in the background section of this report, City staff has evaluated the scopes of these three projects and has determined that they are all Categorically Exempt from CEQA under Article 19, Section 15301(c): Existing Facilities (Class 1) of the CEQA guidelines. This determination was based on the following criteria:
•All three projects are considered minor alterations that will involve no expansion of existing use/capacity as their scopes aim to improve the safety of existing streets by adding elements to existing infrastructure.
•None of the following exceptions considered under Section 15300.2 apply:
a) Location: The proposed project elements will be installed within the existing City’s right of way within no particularly sensitive environments. b) Cumulative Impact: All three projects will be fully functional upon completion and will not require any successive projects for which cumulative impacts must be considered.
c) Significant Effect: Even under unusual circumstances there is no reasonable possibility that the activities to be performed to complete these projects will have a significant effect on the environment.
d) Scenic Highways: None of the projects are located within scenic highways. e) Hazardous Waste Sites: None of the projects are listed on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.
f) Historical Resources: None of the projects will affect any historical resources as they will be installed within existing streets.

Please refer to Attachment C, the Notice of Exemption forms for each project.

Engineering staff will be preparing the plans, specifications and estimates for the three projects discussed above. After Caltrans authorizes the funds for construction, staff will advertise for bids. Next, after bids have been opened for the new traffic signal at Village Dr. / Puesta Del Sol Dr. and the Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons Project, staff will request that City Council award construction contracts to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for each project. For the Retroreflective Borders to Traffic Signal Backplates Project, staff will proceed with a purchase within the City Manager’s authority, 3 0
8 5
assuming the total amount does not exceed $125,000.00. The materials purchased for this project will be installed by City traffic signal maintenance staff.

Staff recommends that the Honorable City Council open and conduct a public hearing to receive testimony regarding the proposed projects and approve the following projects and respective notices of exemption:

1. Traffic Signal Installation at Village Drive and Puesta Del Sol Drive Project;

2. Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon Installation Project; and

3. Retroreflective Borders for Backplates of 96 Traffic Signals.

Staff remains available for any questions Council may have.

Item Number: 2
City Council / Board of Directors
Public Hearing(s)
Meeting of: May 2, 2023
Submitted By:

Jenele Davidson, Deputy City Manager

Subject:

Repeal of Uncodified Ordinance No. 1460 and Resolution No. 90-158 – Storm Drainage Benefit Fee System
Recommendation:

That the Honorable City Council:

1. Open and conduct a public hearing to receive comments regarding Ordinance No. 2436, repealing Ordinance No. 1460 (an ordinance establishing a benefit fee system to finance the cost of construction of storm drainage improvements for Northern and Central Victorville) and directing the non-codification of the ordinance;

2. Find the repeal of Ordinance No. 1460 exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines;

3. Introduce Ordinance No. 2436 for adoption and first reading by title only;

4. Waive further public reading in full of proposed Ordinance No. 2436; and

5. Adopt Resolution No. 23-029, repealing Resolution No. 90-158 (requiring payment of the storm drain fee in the area of benefit established by Victorville City Council Ordinance No. 1406) and directing the recording of the resolution.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions. The City’s current Development Impact Fee for Regional Strom Drainage was approved on June 7, 2022, and became effective on January 1, 2023.

Strategic Plan Goal:

The City of Victorville Strategic Plan 2020-2023 identifies multi-year strategic goals and various strategies to work toward achieving those goals. Goal A is financial sustainability through long-term planning, cost control, increased revenue and cost recovery. The City accomplished a portion of this goal by evaluating and establishing a Regional Storm Drain 3 0
9 3
Development Impact Fee to fund capital facilities needed to mitigate the impacts of new development and maintain the existing level of service for the City’s regional drainage system.

Background:

Development Impact Fees (DIF) are one-time fees assessed on new development to fund the cost of providing municipal facilities to serve the impact created by new development.

The authorization for a local jurisdiction to collect DIF exists through the enactment of California Government Code sections 66001 through 66025 (also known as the “Mitigation Fee Act” and sometimes referred to as “AB 1600” or “AB 602”). Additionally, under V.M.C. Section 16-5.01.080, development impact fees apply to all development in the City of Victorville.

As part of the Citywide DIF study completed in June 2022, staff reviewed all ordinances and resolutions related to DIF fee establishment. During the process, it was discovered that the City previously established a Storm Drainage benefit fee system by ordinance, which was not codified, and a corresponding resolution establishing storm drainage fee parameters was recorded with the San Bernardino County Recorder’s Office.

Discussion:

Uncodified Ordinance 1460 and Resolution No. 90-158, Establishing a Benefit Fee System to Finance the Cost of Construction of Storm Drainage Improvements for Northern and Central Victorville do not meet the fee establishment requirements currently outlined in the Mitigation Fee Act. As part of the DIF fee update last year, the City hired an independent consultant to conduct a study of regional storm drainage needs projected through 2050. The “Nexus Study” was required as part of the fee establishment guidelines outlined in the Mitigation Fee Act and was accepted and adopted as part of Resolution No. 22-045 (Attachment A) at the City Council meeting held on June 7, 2022.

The Council’s subsequent adoption of Resolution No. 22-050 (Attachment B) established the City’s Master Fee Schedule for all DIF and Capacity Charges, including the Regional Storm Drainage DIF, and updated the associated City Council Policy No. CP-22-01 for implementation. As part of that action the Council also found that Resolution No. 22-050 and City Council Policy No. CP-22-01 would supersede any inconsistencies with previously adopted Council policies or resolutions.

Effective January 1, 2023, the new Regional Storm Drainage DIF completely replaced and supplanted the previously established Storm Drainage benefit fee system. However, because the Storm Drainage benefit fee system was previously adopted by ordinance, these additional actions have been determined as necessary to formerly repeal Ordinance No. 1460, record the nullification of Resolution No. 90-158, and eliminate any future uncertainty.

By adopting Ordinance No. 2436 (Attachment C), uncodified Ordinance No. 1460, which originally established a benefit fee system to finance Storm Drainage improvements for a portion of the city, will be formally repealed. Adopting Resolution No. 23-029 (Attachment 3 0

D) will take an additional step to repeal the requirement to pay the Storm Drainage fees that were originally established by uncodified Ordinance No. 1460. These steps will ensure that the Council’s more recent adoption of Resolution No. 22-050 to establish the City’s Master Fee Schedule for DIF and Capacity Charges, as well as the associated City Council Policy No. CP-22-01 for implementation of said fees, serve as the governing documents for Regional Storm Drainage DIF and related improvements going forward.

Staff is available for any questions you may have.

Background:

Since 2014, the City of Victorville has consistently applied for and received Used Oil Payment Program (OPP) grants from the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle). These grants are used to support the City’s used oil and oil filter collection and recycling efforts. CalRecycle offers these grants pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 48653. The City uses these funds for public education and outreach, to purchase oil filter drain pans and filter buckets, and to cover a portion of the staffing costs associated with accepting used oil and filters at the City’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center.

Discussion:

In accordance with the City’s grant policy and California State Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) requirements, staff is seeking acceptance of the grant award and ratification of the associated spending plan for the fiscal year 2022-2023, Cycle 13, Used Oil Payment Program (OPP 13) Grant in the amount of $20,810. Grant funding is made available pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 48600 et seq. which outlines the California Oil Recycling Enhancement Act. The Act is administered by CalRecycle and is funded by a fee paid by oil manufacturers for each gallon of lubricating oil sold in California. The fee has been set at $0.24/gallon since January 1, 2014. There is also a lower fee of $0.12/gallon for the sale of re-refined oil in California.

Fees collected are used to fund CalRecycle’s Used Oil Recycling Program projects, including the provision of payments to local governments for used oil and oil filter collection and recycling programs. Public Resources Code Section 48653 provides for a maximum of $11 million per fiscal year for the Used Oil Payment Program. The actual budget amount is determined annually by the State legislature, and payments for each eligible jurisdiction are calculated on a per capita basis.

In the FY 2020/2021 cycle, CalRecycle notified jurisdictions that after fulfilling statutory requirements, the funding amount for the Used Oil Payment Program Cycle 11 would be reduced. For this reason, Cycle 11 grant awards to jurisdictions were correspondingly reduced.

This funding reduction from CalRecycle has continued into the OPP 13 grant cycle. The City’s OPP 13 grant is slightly higher than its OPP 12 award, but it is still significantly less than the amount it has received historically. The City’s expenditure plan for the OPP 13 cycle grant has been adjusted to reduce the amount budgeted for supplies and advertising.

The City has applied for and received this grant annually for the past eight cycles in the following amounts:
• OPP 5 Cycle: $33,465
• OPP 6 Cycle: $33,364
• OPP 7 Cycle: $33,548
3 0
7 9
• OPP 8 Cycle: $33,347
• OPP 9 Cycle: $34,129
• OPP 10 Cycle: $34,023
• OPP 11 Cycle: $14,089
• OPP 12 Cycle: $17,164
On February 18, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 20-003 which authorized the submittal of applications for any and all payment programs offered by CalRecycle and authorized the City Manager or his designee as a signature authority.

The OPP 13 grant application was submitted in June 2022, and the check was received in April 2023. Grant funds for the OPP 13 funding cycle must be fully expended by June 30, 2024. The OPP grant is a major source of funding for the operation and promotion of the City’s used oil and filter recycling program. Consistent with the grant awards from prior years, the City will use this grant award to pay for a portion of the costs of staffing the City’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center and the associated supplies and marketing efforts related to used motor oil and oil filter recycling.

The expenditure plan calls for $9,810 for supplies, $6,000 for advertising/public education, and $5,000 for contract services for Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center staffing costs associated with used oil and filter collection activities.

Staff recommends that the City Council ratify the expenditure plan above and approve Resolution No. 23-028 to authorize the acceptance of OPP 13 grant funds and authorize the City Manager or his designee as the signing authority to execute all documents necessary to administer the grant.

Staff remains available for any questions Council may have.

Overview and Statutory Authority
The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) offers the Used Oil Payment Program pursuant to Section 48600 of the Public Resources Code.

The California Public Resources Code (PRC) section 48600 et seq. describes the California Oil Recycling Enhancement Act (Act), which, among other things, provides up to $11 million annually in payments to local governments for implementation of local used oil and filter collection programs. The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) is responsible for administering the OPP. These Guidelines describe the application and administrative processes to implement the OPP Cycle 1 3.

Payment Recipients (recipients) are responsible and accountable for ensuring that expenditures are appropriate, and that proper internal supporting documentation is maintained. To ensure full compliance with OPP’s processes and requirements, OPP applicants/recipients must adhere to these Guidelines and the program provisions set out in the Act, notably PRC sections 48674, 48690, and 48691.

Note: The anticipated amount for FY 2022–23 is $6,099,000. The amount available is subject to change, based on the availability of oil funds.

This resource document provides applicants with instructions to access and complete the application online and information about the administration of the Used Oil Payment Program. The web-based application is in CalRecycle’s Local Government Oil Payment Program (LoGOPP) (https://secure.calrecycle.ca.gov/LoGOPP/SignIn.aspx ).

Eligible Applicants
Applicants are limited to local governments, which are defined in statute as "any chartered or general law city, chartered or general law county, or any city and county." CalRecycle may make a payment to another entity that will implement the program on behalf of a local government (in lieu of making a payment to that local government) with the agreement of that local government.

Applicants that comply with PRC sections 48690 and 48691 are eligible to apply for and, if approved, receive payment through the OPP. Applic ants must have a used oil collection program which provides either of the following or a combination of the two:
• Ensures there is at least one certified used oil collection center (CCC) for every 100,000 residents not served by curbside collection .
• Provides used oil curbside collection at least once a month.

In addition to meeting at least one of the requirements above, applicants must have a public education component that informs the public of locally available used oil recycling opportunities.

California Labor Code section 1782 prohibits a charter city from receiving state funding or financial assistance for construction projects if that charter city does not comply with Labor Code sections 1770-1782. If any applicants or participating entities are charter cities or Joint Powers Authorities that include charter cities, the lead participating entity must certify that Labor Code section 1782 does not prohibit any included charter city from receiving state funds for the project described in this application. If it is determined after award that an applicant or a participating entity is a charter city prohibited from

Guidelines: Used Oil Payment Program, OPP13 (FY 2022–23) Revised June 7, 2022
6 receiving state funds for their project, the award will be terminated and any disbursed OPP funds shall be returned to CalRecycle.

Individual Application

In addition, the applicant will be the only entity receiving any real or personal property that is purchased with these funds.

Regional Application
Local governments may join together in a regional application, in which two or more eligible jurisdictions join together for the purpose of project implementation. A Regional Lead Participant must be designated to act on behalf of all Non-Lead Participants. An entity that is not a local government, such as a district, can be delegated as a Lead but is not eligible to join as a participant. The Lead Participant is the applicant, and if awarded, will be responsible for the performance of the OPP and all req uired documentation. CalRecycle will direct all official correspondence and payments to the Lead Participant. If a jurisdiction is a Non-Lead Participant in a Regional Application, it may not apply individually.

Joint Powers Authority Application Requirements
Joint Powers Authorities (JPA) may submit a n application as an individual applicant . An entity may not submit an individual application if that entity is also a member of an applicant JPA. In addition to the requirements for an I ndividual Application, a JPA must upload a copy of its JPA Agreement.

The JPA Agreement must:

1. Give authority over used oil management.

2. List all member entities.

3. Contain the signature of all members .

Public Records Requests
CalRecycle’s policy is to make records requested by the public promptly available in accordance with the laws governing disclosure of records and information to the public.

In general, all records in the possession of a state agency are public records subject to disclosure, unless a law provides that a particular kind of record or information is not a public record or is exempt or prohibited from disclosure.

Upon request, the entire contents of the submitted application are subject to public records requests. This may include contact information, project summary, uploaded documents, and scoring information. Public records may be requested from CalRecycle through the California Public Records Act Requests web page (https://www2.calrecycle.ca.gov/Forms/ContactUs/PublicRecordsRequest/).

Guidelines: Used Oil Payment Program, OPP13 (FY 2022–23) Revised June 7, 2022
7 Confidentiality
The following describes the treatment of certain confidential or proprietary informat ion under the California Public Records Act ( Government Code 6250, et seq.) and related regulations. It also describes how questions are resolved on whether inf ormation is truly confidential, the legal protections for confidential information, and internal and program procedures to maintain confidentiality.

Confidential or Proprietary Information
Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (14 CCR), sections 17041-17046 (https://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/Laws/Regulations/Title14/), states that confidential or proprietary information shall include, but is not limited to:
• Personal or business-related financial data, customer client lists, supplier lists and other information of a proprietary or confidential business nature provided by persons in applications, reports, returns, certifications or other documents submitted to [CalRecycle] which if released would result in harmful effects on the person’s competitive position.
• Tax information prohibited from disclosure, pursuant to the Revenue and Taxation Code.

Accordingly, appropriate documents submitted with an application that are clearly marked, on each page, “confidential or proprietary information” will be treated by CalRecycle pursuant to the procedures set forth in 14 CCR sections 17041 -17046.

However, the law does not treat documents marked as “confidential or proprietary information” (such as sales brochures, promotional literature and other general non - financial documents) as confidential if they do not fall within the categories of protected financial documents listed above.

What if there is a question about what is confidential? If CalRecycle receives a request to disclose data claimed by the applicant to be confidential, CalRecycle would notify the applicant of the request and state that the documents were under review to determine whether information was correctly identified as “confidential.” If there was any question as to whether specific information was confidential, CalRecycle would contact the person(s) identified in the application to provide a justification and statement why the information is confidential. The process for evaluating confidentiality claims is set forth in section 14 CCR 17046.

What procedures does CalRecycle have in place to ensure that confidential information is kept confidential?
Confidential or proprietary information will be evaluated and analyzed only by CalRecycle staff, kept confidential, and will be maintained with restricted access.

Records no longer needed to provide the services offered under the program are periodically destroyed, when allowed by audit policies and state law.

Recipients must account for all OPP funds in a manner that provides for clear tracking of expenditures in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Proper business procedures dictate that OPP supporting documentation (including, but not limited to, the original signed application certification and annual report summary pages, invoices, payroll registers/logs, travel expense claim forms, proof of pre -approval, etc.) be retained in a single file to facilitate review and retention, as well as maintenan ce of a clear paper/audit trail.

Examples of documentation subject to audit include, but are not limited to, expenditure ledgers, payroll register entries, time sheets, travel logs, paid warrants, contracts and change orders, samples/pictures of items and materials developed with OPP funds, invoices, receipts, proof of pre-approval, and canceled checks. All such records shall be maintained for possible audit for a minimum of three years after the OPP term end date, or until completion of any action and resolution of all issues, which may arise as a result of any litigation, dispute, or audit, whichever is later.

Audit findings against recipients can resul t in the need for reimbursement of OPP funds, and/or ineligibility for future OPP funds.

Real and Personal Property Acquired with OPP Funds
(a) All real and personal property, including equipment and supplies, acquired with OPP funds shall be used by the recipient only for the purposes for which CalRecycle approved their acquisition for so long as such property is needed for such purposes, regardless of whether the recipient continues to receive OPP funds from CalRecycle for such purposes. In no event shall the length of time during which such property, including equipment and supplies, acquired with OPP funds and used for the purpose for which CalRecycle approved its acquisition, be less than five (5) years after the end

(b) Subject to the obligations and conditions set forth in this section, title to all real and personal property acquired with OPP funds, includin g all equipment and supplies, shall vest upon acquisition in the recipient. The recipient may be required to execute all documents required to provide CalRecycle with a security interest in any real or personal property, including equipment and supplies, and it shall be a condition of receiving this payment program that CalRecycle shall be in first priority position with respect to the security interest on any such property acquired with the OPP funds, unless pre-approved in writing by the Program Advisor that CalRecycle will accept a lower priority position with respect to the security interest on the property. Recipient shall inform any lender(s) from whom it is acquiring additional funding to complete the property purchase of this payment program conditi on.

(c) The recipient may not transfer Title to any real or personal property, including equipment and supplies, acquired with OPP funds to any other entity without the express authorization of CalRecycle.

(d) CalRecycle will not reimburse the recipien t for the acquisition of equipment that was previously purchased with CalRecycle OPP funds, unless the acquisition of such equipment with OPP funds is pre-approved in writing by the Program Advisor. In the event of a question concerning the eligibility of equipment for program funding, the burden will be on the recipient to establish the pedigree of the equipment.

Discretionary Termination
The Director of CalRecycle or his/her designee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at his/her sole discretion at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Recipient. Within forty-five (45) days of receipt of written notice, the recipient is required to:

2. Reimburse CalRecycle any unspent funds.

Termination for Cause
In the event the recipient fails to comply with the requirements of these Guidelines at the time and in the manner herein provided, CalRecycle ma y terminate the OPP Agreement.

Recipients are encouraged to discuss any problems they may have in complying with these Guidelines with their Program Advisor to determine if CalRecycle can be of assistance.

Background:

On December 17, 2019, the City of Victorville (“City”) adopted Ordinance No. 2400 amending the Victorville Municipal Code (“VMC”) to include section 13.150.060. VMC section 13.150.060 became effective on January 1, 2020 and provides an administrative citation and fine structure for excess cannabis cultivation within the City limits. The State of California allows for the cultivation of up to six (6) cannabis plants at a residential property. VMC section 13.150.060(c) prohibits cultivation of cannabis in excess of six (6) plants at residential properties within the City limits. A violation of VMC section

13.150.050(c) carries a $100.00 fine per plant for plants found in excess of the six (6) allowable cannabis plants.

In recent history, the City’s Police and Code Compliance Departments have encountered excess cannabis cultivation operations inside residential homes. A typical excess cannabis cultivation within the City has ranged from approximately 200 to 2,000 cannabis plants being cultivated inside a residential home. These excess cannabis cultivation operations result in substantial damage to the interior of the home. Although the prohibition of excess cannabis cultivation applies to commercial properties within City limits as well as homes, the majority of these types of illegal cannabis cultivation operations occur inside residential properties.

The City’s Police and Code Compliance Departments investigate excess cannabis cultivation operations. These departments issue citations to the property owner or responsible party. The City’s Building Department, along with the Police and Code Compliance Departments, work to secure the residence, record building and safety violations present at the property that are the result of the excess cannabis cultivation, stabilize the utilities, and remove the cannabis from the home. The City incurs abatement costs related to the work completed by City departments stemming from the cannabis removal and securing the residential or commercial structure.

The administrative citation and fine process defined in VMC section 13.150.060 is one way the City combats excess cannabis cultivations within its City limits. Enforcement of the City’s excess cannabis cultivation ordinance is intended to protect the health, welfare, and safety of the City’s residents from the public nuisance conditions associated with these properties.

Discussion:

Bayou Title Holding Trust owns a residential property in Victorville. An excess cannabis cultivation operation was found inside its residential property in December 2022. The City issued a citation for a violation of VMC section 13.150.060(c). The City's Code Compliance, Police and Building Departments abated the dangerous conditions present at the property. Pursuant to the Closed Session discussion on April 4, 2023, Ms. Ngyuen, as Trustee of the Bayou Title Holding Trust, has accepted the terms of the settlement offer from the City Council. The settlement terms, which are memorialized in the attached settlement agreement, waive the fine and any penalties, interest or other fees that have accrued since the issuance of the citation. Ms. Nguyen has previously paid the City’s 3 0

abatement costs in January 2023. Ms. Nguyen has agreed to pay a fine amount of $14,420.00.

Staff and the City Attorney’s office recommend that the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to sign the attached Citation Settlement Agreement as it is consistent with the City Council direction given during the Closed Session portion of its April 5, 2023 meeting.

Discussion:

This project was approved in Fiscal Year 2022/2023 in the amount of $173,000 using Measure P Funds (Fund 105). The project began on February 10, 2023 and completed on April 24, 2023. This project did not have any change orders and was completed on schedule.

City Council / Board of Directors
Written Communications
Meeting of: May 2, 2023
Submitted By:

Doug Mathews, Director of Public Works and Water

Subject:

Amendment No. 1 to the General Services Provider Standard Agreement with Univar Solutions USA, Inc. for the Annual Supply of Sodium Hypochlorite.

Recommendation:

That the Honorable Victorville Water District Board of Directors (Board) approve Amendment No. 1 to the General Services Provider Standard Agreement by and between Victorville Water District (District) and Univar Solutions USA, Inc. (Univar) for the annual supply of sodium hypochlorite, Project CC22-102.

Fiscal Impact:

Proposed Amendment No. 1 (Attachment A) will increase this fiscal year’s agreement by $100,000, updating the total compensation to $316,587.84. An additional appropriation is not required. The account codes below have sufficient funds to cover the cost of the water treatment chemical for the District’s wells and High Desert Power Plant’s (HDPP) wells:
•4100515 – 52110 – An additional $75,000 (Total of $256,587.84) o4100515 – Water Fund, Quality Services
o52110 – Supplies
•4100510 – 52110 – An additional $25,000 (Total of $60,000) o4100510 – Water Fund, High Desert Power Plant
o52110 – Supplies
HDPP is a district customer and billed monthly for services, including the cost of chlorination for their wells. The increase in their chemical costs ($25,000) will be offset by revenue generated through their monthly billing. Since other costs budgeted for HDPP have come in lower than anticipated, a budget amendment to account for this additional revenue is not required.

3 3
Strategic Plan Goal:

This item aligns with Goal E, Invest in Infrastructure, which focuses on creating a healthy and livable community by maintaining the City’s assets through investment in infrastructure and innovations. By continuously maintaining the District’s well sites through routine maintenance and chlorination, the District can continue to provide the highest quality of drinking water for a healthy and livable community.

Background:

On July 19, 2022, the Board awarded a General Services Provider Standard Agreement (Attachment B) for the annual supply of Sodium Hypochlorite, a water treatment chemical, to Univar for an amount not to exceed $216,587.84. Sodium Hypochlorite, also known as chlorine, is purchased on a monthly basis to chlorinate the District’s wells along with the High Desert Power Plant’s (HDPP) wells.

HDPP is an 830-megawatt (MW) facility that helps supplement the California power grid.

The District provides recycled water for HDPP’s usage to cool the turbines that help produce power. Disinfecting the recycled water with Sodium Hypochlorite minimizes the growth of microorganisms as the water is recirculating in the cooling towers; this helps the turbines continue to run without any issues. Additionally, the District maintains HDPP’s well sites through an Aquifer Storage and Recovery Agreement and HDPP reimburses the District on a monthly invoice. Part of the maintenance includes chlorination.

In addition, the District maintains thirty-four active wells which require Sodium Hypochlorite in order to be in compliance with the District’s Domestic Water Supply Permit and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA issued the Ground Water Rule (GWR) on October 11, 2006. The GWR states that all ground water systems serving more than 3,300 residents must conduct compliance monitoring for the residual disinfectant concentration to meet the State specified minimum. The District conducts regular sampling by a certified water operator to verify the chlorine residual in the water system.

Discussion:

During this fiscal year, HDPP requested that the chlorine residual be increased from 0.50 parts per million (ppm) to 0.75 ppm. The amount of reclaimed water HDPP is using also increased this fiscal year. This increase in chlorine residual, along with an increase in recycled water demand, resulted in additional Sodium Hypochlorite use for HDPP.

Determining the amount of reclaimed water HDPP will use is difficult since they can be requested by the State to generate power at any given time.

When the original agreement was approved, District staff did not expect HDPP to require additional chlorination. Additionally, staff had an open bid for water treatment chemicals during the budget period and bids were not received until after FY 2022/2023 budget figures had been submitted and approved by the Board. Once the bids came in, staff realized that although a 30 percent increase over the previous contract was used to estimate the cost of chemicals, it would be insufficient to cover the pricing provided by the lowest bidder.
3 0
3 3
The current price per gallon for Sodium Hypochlorite is $3.14 and the District’s estimated annual chlorine usage is 80,000 gallons, which brings the amount to $251,200. HDPP’s estimated annual chlorine usage is 18,000 gallons which brings the total to $56,520. The total between both facilities is $307,720. District staff is recommending rounding up the additional amount to an even $100,000, for a total contract amount of $316,587.84, to help cover chlorination costs for any unexpected summer demands.

Victorville Municipal Code §2.28.100(a)(6) states that the Board of Directors shall have the authority to award a contract for the purchase of supplies and equipment or general services with a cost in excess of one hundred twenty-five thousand dollars. For these reasons, staff is recommending that the Board approve Amendment No. 1 to the General Services Provider Standard Agreement by and between Victorville Water District and Univar for the annual supply of Sodium Hypochlorite water treatment chemicals.

Staff remains available for any questions the Board may have.

City Council / Board of Directors
Written Communications
Meeting of: May 2, 2023
Submitted By:

Brenda Hampton, Director of Electric Utility Services

Subject:

Purchase of Five (5) Liquid Filled Padmounted Transformers Recommendation:

The Honorable City Council approve:
(1) the purchase of five (5) Liquid Filled Padmounted Transformers from Hitachi Energy USA, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $542,461.31; and
(2) a Sole Source arrangement with Hitachi Energy USA, Inc. for the purchase of electric utility distribution equipment.

Fiscal Impact:

This purchase will have a fiscal impact of $542,461.31. This purchase is budgeted under the VMUS Redundancy Equipment, 4202076-55040-30029, which was appropriated during the FY23 mid-year budget. If approved by Council, the funds to be expended for this purchase may be reimbursed to the City by future customers requiring a transformer for the installation of any new services. The lead time for the transformers are approximately three (3) years, however a purchase order is currently required to place the order. The funds will be encumbered and not expensed until the transformers are received.

Strategic Plan Goal:

Invest in Infrastructure
Background:

Electrical utilities, such as VMUS, are expected to operate a reliable power system with limited outages at a reasonable cost to its customers. Power system reliability is maintained and enhanced when that system has components that are dependable, substitutable, and easily replaceable if they fail. Interoperability is the ability of the system equipment and devices to work together easily and effectively by design. This reliability, 3 0
9 4
efficiency, and interoperability is achieved through standardization of equipment used on the system.

Standard equipment used on the VMUS system includes transformers manufactured by Hitachi. Pacific Utilities is the direct sales/marketing arm of Hitachi and their quotes come directly from the factory, which eliminates potential mark up in cost of such transformers.

Since 2020, supply chain issues have been exasperated in the United States.

Transformer supply from any manufacturer has been impacted significantly. Lead times have grown from 3 months in 2020 to almost 3 years in 2023. The cost of the transformers will not be expensed until the equipment arrives on-site and any transformers used for customer sites will ultimately be paid for by the customer.

Discussion:

VMUS maintains an inventory of spare transformers and other select parts to prevent extended down time in the event of equipment failures in the system. We have one replacement transformer for each size of transformer used in the VMUS system.

When new projects are under development, the engineering design for those projects will specify the appropriate size of transformer for each required service connection. The timeline for these projects to be developed and construction completed is approximately 44-60 weeks. Previously, VMUS has been able to acquire these transformers within that window; however, because of the supply chain issues resulting in an extended lead time of 149 weeks, we would potentially have to delay providing service to new or existing customers by 2 years, or risk not having a transformer in stock if an equipment failure would occur.

With the current level of expected growth at Southern California Logistics Airport (“SCLA”) and Foxborough Industrial Park, VMUS believes that we can adequately address emergency repairs, prevent extended down time for customers, and avoid extensive delays in providing new connections for customers with the procurement of one additional transformer of each size.

As noted in the quote (Attachment A) provided by Hitachi, the total price for the five (5) transformers listed above is $542,461.31. Due to the long lead times, Hitachi has a Price Adjustment Policy (“PAC”) included on the quote, which states that prices may be adjusted three (3) months prior to shipment. Should the price increase over the City Manager’s purchasing authority, as stated in VMC 2.28.060, VMUS staff will come forth and request additional approval to purchase the transformers from the Victorville City Council.

Pursuant to VMC 2.28.100 this purchase is being done through the sole-source process (Attachment B) with Hitachi. A sole source purchase is defined under VMC 2.28.050(17) as, unique services, and/or supplies and equipment that can be obtained from only one vendor, or one distributor authorized to sell in this area, with singular characteristics or performance capabilities or which have specific compatibility components with existing city products, rendering bidding or quotation requirements futile or meaningless. The standardization for transformers reduces maintenance and training costs, creates efficiencies regarding a part's interchangeability and reduces outage downtime for customers in the event of a transformer failing. Additionally, Pacific Utilities is a subsidiary of the manufacturer, which minimizes the markup costs for the units.

Staff is available for questions.

Submitted By:

C. Eric Ray, Airport Director
Subject:

General Services Provider Agreement between Mission Ambulance, Inc. dba Mission Aviation Fire Rescue and the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority for Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Services Project CC23-088
Recommendation:

That Your Honorable Southern California Logistics Airport Authority Board of Directors approve the award of a General Services Provider Standard Agreement (“Agreement”) to Mission Ambulance, Inc. dba Mission Aviation Fire Rescue (“Mission Aviation Fire Rescue”), in the amount not to exceed $7,814,420 for Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Services, Project CC23-088.

Fiscal Impact:

The initial term of the Agreement presented herein will impact Airport Fund 450 expenditures over five fiscal years as shown below:

FY 2023/2024 FY 2024/2025 FY 2025/2026 FY 2026/2027 FY 2027/2028 $1,452,880 $1,505,680 $1,560,700 $1,617,880 $1,677,280
The Agreement Compensation of $7,814,420 includes $7,164,420 for regularly scheduled ARFF services provided to the SCLA and $650,000 for additional exclusive services as may be requested by airport tenants. The fees for additional exclusive services are reimbursed by the requesting tenant.

Strategic Plan Goal:

Goal B. Public Safety: This contract provides firefighting services at the SCLA for the purpose of providing certain dedicated public safety services.

Goal C. Community Economic Development: This contract is critical to ensuring aircraft operations that are fundamental to the aviation related economic development at the SCLA.

Background:

The Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“SCLAA”) operates the Southern California Logistics Airport (“SCLA”), certified in accordance with Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 139. As such, certain Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (“ARFF”) capabilities, defined as an “Index” ranging from “A” to “E”, must be maintained. An Index specifically refers to the type of ARFF equipment and volume of fire extinguishing agent that the SCLA must provide based upon the length of air carrier aircraft used and the frequency of air carrier operations. Currently, the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) has published the SCLA as an Index “C” airport which allows for unlimited air carrier operations in aircraft up to, and including, the largest of the Boeing 737 family of aircraft.

It also allows for four average daily air carrier operations in aircraft up to the size of the Boeing 767 and 787-8. The SCLA is also published as being capable of providing an Index “E” for the largest aircraft with 24 hours prior notice to the Airport Operations Staff.

This provision is in effect as some civilian aircraft operators of very large aircraft and certain military aircraft operators require either an Index “D” or “E”. FAR Part 139 also specifies numerous operational requirements including those pertaining to: personnel training; minimum personnel qualifications; fueling facility inspections; and documentation.

To meet the Index “C” through “E” requirements, the SCLA owns four specialized airport fire trucks that carry large volumes of water and are capable of producing a foam concentrate specifically designed to fight aircraft fires and improve passenger survivability. The trucks are based out of the Airport ARFF Station, which is currently staffed by Mission Ambulance Inc, dba Mission Aviation Fire Rescue.

Since June 5, 2018, Mission Aviation Fire Rescue has provided ARFF services to the SCLA for the purpose of meeting the FAR Part 139 requirements, with a primary purpose of responding to aircraft emergencies in less than three minutes. Additionally, Mission Aviation Fire Rescue performs ancillary fueler and fuel farm inspections, lease compliance inspections, and tenant training duties.

Discussion:

The term of the current agreement with Mission Aviation Fire Rescue will expire June 30, 2023, resulting in the need to resolicit for ARFF services. To procure a qualified service provider, staff prepared a comprehensive Request for Proposal (“RFP”) for the solicitation of ARFF services. An RFP is a formal solicitation whereby the respondents are required to submit a formal, written proposal to address items detailed in the scope of services.

The proposal submission should describe how and when the proposer intends to perform the scope of services, and the associated cost. RFP solicitations are based on 2 2
7 8
qualifications, which is why the RFP bid forms that contain pricing information must be submitted in a sealed envelope separate from the rest of the proposal submission. The intent is to ensure the contract is awarded to a qualified company that has been vetted through a bona fide process, although they may not be the lowest price proposer. The lowest proposer is not automatically guaranteed a contract, such contracts should only be awarded to firms or persons who have demonstrated an adequate level of experience, competence, staffing and other professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory performance of the solicited services.

The RFP was advertised in two local newspaper publications, posted on the City of Victorville website, and with the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE).

AAAE also posted an advertisement on the AAAE ARFF Working Group web page. Since the ARFF Working Group is the preeminent professional association for the ARFF industry, the RFP received broad advertising exposure. Additionally, staff searched the internet and located a total of 13 firms that might be capable of providing the needed service, although only 9 of which were based in the United States.

Staff carefully reviewed the two bid submissions and evaluated each for completeness and accuracy. A selection committee comprised of the Airport Director, the Airport Operations and Maintenance Manager, Airport Business Analyst, and Airport Fiscal Specialist conducted a detailed evaluation of both submissions based on the criteria specified in the solicitation. The evaluation criteria used to score the submissions included: experience, past performance, qualifications, price, completeness of a proposed start-up schedule, familiarity with the SCLA, a value-added component, and other relevant factors. Each member of the selection committee completed their own evaluation forms which are summarized as follows:

Company: Point Rating by

A B C D
Mission Aviation Fire Rescue, Corona, CA 72 72 72 71 71.75 Rural/Metro Fire Dept., Inc., Nokomis, FL 40 38 37 38 38.25 At the end of the screening process, Mission Aviation Fire Rescue received the highest overall rating, identifying them as the “best value bidder”. In accordance with City of Victorville Municipal Code §2.28.040, the “best value bidder” is the respondent that represents the best value to the SCLAA as determined upon the careful evaluation of bona fide criteria.

The Agreement presented herein has been competitively solicited in accordance with the City of Victorville Municipal Code §2.28.100, which defines the bidding requirements for purchases of general services, supplies, and equipment in excess of fifty thousand dollars. Therefore, staff recommends that Your Honorable Board of Directors approve the award of a General Services Provider Standard Agreement to Mission Aviation Fire Rescue, for ARFF Services Project #CC23-088, in the amount not to exceed $7,814,420. 2 2

N B - SCOPE OF SERVICES
I. BACKGROUND
Southern Ca
lifornia Logistics Airport (SCLA) encompasses approximately 2,300 acres of the former George Air Force Base (GAFB). The SCLA is located in the northwest corner of the City of Victorville, in the southeast corner of Mojave Desert, approximately 90 miles northeast of Los Angeles. GAFB was officially decommissioned in December 1992.

The Southern California International Airport (SCIA), the immediate predecessor to the SCLA, opened in October 1994, when the Air Force executed a lease for about 2,300 acres of the former base. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) granted the SCLA a FAR Part 139 operating certificate in February 1995 to serve scheduled aircraft carrying over 30 passengers.

The former base has been redeveloped as an aircraft maintenance and completion center under the SCLA name. During the past few years, the SCLA has grown to the point of having leased all its tenable properties.

The SCLA has two runways and ten taxiways. The longer runway, Runway 17/35, is a precision runway and is 13,051 feet long. The secondary runway, Runway 3/21, is a 9,138- foot-long visual runway. The SCLA operates navigational aids, including a Localizer, VOR, four Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI) systems, two Runway End Identifier Lights (REIL) systems, a segmented circle with a primary wind cone, and three secondary lighted wind cones.

This Reques
t for Proposal (RFP) is being issued to solicit proposals from qualified ARFF providers, who have the working knowledge of ARFF services, with particular emphasis on the ARFF requirements of FAR Part 139.

The type and amount of AR
FF services required is determined by each airport’s Class and Index. An airport’s class is determined by the type of air carrier operations taking place. The SCLA operates under a Class IV classification, meaning that it operates unscheduled large air carrier aircraft. An airport’s Index is determined by the length of the applicable aircraft, the number seats, and average daily departures. Index A includes aircraft less than 90 feet, Index B includes aircraft at least 90 feet and less than 126 feet, Index C includes aircraft at least 126 feet and less than 159 feet in length, Index D includes aircraft at least 159 feet and less than 200 feet in length, while Index E includes aircraft over 200 feet in length. The SCLA currently provides ARFF services 24 hours per day, 365 days per year at an Index C, with D and E capabilities available upon a 24-hour Prior Planning Request (PPR).

ARFF serv
ices are provided during all commercial passenger operations in accordance with FAR Part 139, to respond to any emergency that could occur on the airfield involving an aircraft. Typically, flights coming into and out of the SCLA are not commercial passenger operations.

Item Number: 14
City Council / Board of Directors
Written Communications
Meeting of: May 2, 2023
Submitted By:

Keith C. Metzler, City Manager
Andre de Bortnowsky, City Attorney
Subject:

Termination Agreement to dissolve the Southern California Logistics Rail Authority (“SCLRA”)
Recommendation:

That the Honorable City Council, Board of Directors for the Successor Agency to the Victorville Redevelopment Agency, and the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority adopt Resolution Nos. 23-032, R-SA 23-001 and SCLAA 23-007, approving the execution of a Termination Agreement to Dissolve the Southern California Logistics Rail Authority, and taking related actions.

Fiscal Impact:

The dissolution of the SCLRA and the termination of the related joint powers agreement provides for the wind-down of the SCLRA’s affairs and allows potential savings of expenses that the joint powers authority may otherwise incur in connection with the continuation of the SCLRA.

Strategic Plan Goal:

This item aligns with Goal A, Financial Sustainability, by fostering fiscal health through disciplined long-term planning.

Background:

In 2001, the City of Victorville (the “City”), the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“SCLAA”) and the Former Victorville Redevelopment Agency entered into a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement to form the SCLRA. Since its establishment, the SCLRA has been essentially dormant. In 2006, the SCLRA entered into a Master Rail Development Agreement with Stirling Airport International, LLC, which was later assigned to Stirling Capital Investment, LLC (as the “Master Rail Agreement”). 3 0
9 6
Discussion:

As a result of economic conditions beyond the control of the SCLRA and recent announcements by BNSF Railways of its intention to build an intermodal rail facility in Barstow, CA, it has become apparent that there is no longer a need or justification to build rail facilities adjacent to Southern California Logistics Airport. The City, the SCLAA, and the Successor Agency desire to enter into a termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) to dissolve the SCLRA.

In addition, there has been no activity pursuant to the terms of the Master Rail Agreement and accordingly, dissolution of the SCLRA will make the provisions of the Master Rail Agreement null and void.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), based upon a review of the evidence and information presented on the matter as it relates to the approval of the Termination Agreement, the City, the Successor Agency Board and the SCLAA have determined that such approval is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines because there is no possibility that the activities in question will have a significant impact on the environment; it will not require any construction activities and will not lead to any direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical environmental impacts.

Staff recommends adoption of the attached Resolutions approving the execution of a Termination Agreement to dissolve the Southern California Logistics Rail Authority and taking related actions.

The City, the Successor Agency, and the SCLAA are together, referred to in this Agreement as the “Parties” and, individually, as a “Party.”

RECITALS
W
HEREAS, the Southern California Logistics Rail Authority (the “SCLRA”) is a joint powers agency formed and existing pursuant to the Joint Exercise of Powers Act, set forth in California Government Code Section 6500 et seq. (the “Act ”), and a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2001, (the “ Joint Powers Agreement”), by and among the City, the Former Agency, and the SCLAA.

W
HEREAS, the SCLRA was formed to assist with the financing and development of certain rail facilities and related improvements adjacent to the Southern California Logistics Airport.

W
HEREAS, as permitted by the Act, the Joint Powers Agreement states that the SCLRA shall continue in perpetuity, unless and until the Joint Powers Agreement is rescinded, terminated, or amended as provided for therein.

W
HEREAS, Section 34 of the Joint Powers Agreement provides that it may be rescinded and the SCLRA terminated at any time by written consent of all of the Members of the SCLRA evidenced by a certified copy of a resolution of each of the Members’ governing bodies; provided that no bonds or other evidences of indebtedness remain outstanding.

W
HEREAS, there are no bonds or other forms of indebtedness outstanding and the SCLRA has no outstanding unpaid costs, expenses and charges, and has no assets.

W
HEREAS, as a result of economic conditions beyond the control of the SCLRA, as well as recent announcements by the BNSF Railways indicating its desire to develop an intermodal facility in Barstow, it has become apparent that there is no longer a need or justification to pursue the development of rail facilities adjacent to Southern California Logistics Airport.

W

Item Number: 15
City Council / Board of Directors
Written Communications
Meeting of: May 2, 2023
Submitted By:

Keith C. Metzler, City Manager

Subject:

Real Property Donation Agreement
Recommendation:

That the Honorable Board of Directors:
(1) Adopt Resolution VWD 23-005 accepting the donation of real property to the Victorville Water District (“District”); and
(2) Authorize the General Manager to enter into a Real Property Donation Agreement with Sergio Carcelen.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.

Strategic Plan Goal:

This item aligns with Goal E, Invest in Infrastructure, as the acceptance of the donation would enhance the District’s infrastructure investment and will provide for increased frontage for mobilization of equipment, material, tools, etc., needed for activities such as well repair or improvements.

Background:

On October 5, 2022, Mr. Sergio Carcelen contacted the Economic Development Department to inquire if the City would be interested in accepting a property owned by him as a donation. The Property, more specifically known as Assessor’s Parcel Number 0478-144-01, is vacant land and is less than 4,999 square feet.

Discussion:

Economic Development staff inquired with District staff regarding said land donation and determined that such acquisition would be beneficial to the District as the Property is adjacent to an existing Victorville Water District owned property which houses a water well. District staff indicated that owning said Property would provide the District with 3 0
8 4
increased frontage and better access and mobilization for large equipment needed to perform activities such as water well rehabilitation.

In preparation for acceptance of the donated Property, a preliminary title report and environmental study were performed. These expenses, in the amount of $2,612.50, were paid out of the approved Fiscal Year 2022-23 budgeted contract services account (4100030-52300).

The Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment was prepared by All Phase Environmental, Inc. on November 9, 2022. The report revealed no recognized environmental conditions affecting the Property.

On November 30, 2022, a preliminary title report was performed by Commonwealth Land Title Company, which resulted in the discovery of a lien placed on the individual owner.

This lien was subsequently removed by the San Bernardino County Treasurer-Tax Collector on February 13, 2023. As such, the Property’s title is free from liens and other encumbrances. In addition, staff worked with legal counsel to prepare the attached Real Property Donation agreement.

Staff is seeking your Honorable Board of Directors approval to adopt Resolution No. VWD 23-005 accepting the donation of real property to the Victorville Water District and authorizing the General Manager to enter into a Real Property Donation Agreement with Mr. Sergio Carcelen.

Staff remains available for any questions or comments you may have.

Submitted By:

Jennifer Thompson, City Clerk

Subject:

Any action is at the discretion of Your Honorable City Council.

Fiscal Impact:

The fiscal impact associated with this item would be $400 per month for an annual amount of $4,800. For the remainder of Fiscal Year 22-23 the effect would be $800 and would not require an additional appropriation as sufficient funds exist in the City Council wages account (1001220-51100).

In addition to the salary provided for in Section 2.16.020, city council members may be reimbursed for the actual and necessary expenses incurred in the performance of their official duties, as such reimbursement has been established by the policies adopted by resolution of the city council pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code Section 53232 et seq. and other applicable laws. 3 0

The provisions of Council Policy Nos. CP-93-5 and CP-73-3, to the extent currently in effect, are completely superseded by this Section.

B. Events and Covered Expenses. As long as all other requirements of this Section IV are also met, covered expenses (as that term is used in CP-12-01) incurred by City Councilmembers constitute reimbursable expenses when they engage and/or participate in the following activities and/or events (“Events”):

5. Travel out-of-state or internationally for the above purposes.

C. Advance City Council Approval of Expenditures for Events.

3.Travel Arrangements. Hotel and travel accommodations may be made by City staff or the Councilmember. Councilmembers shall use best efforts to seek the most reasonable, cost-effective manner of travel and/or accommodations, keeping in mind that such travel and/or accommodations are being provided at the expense of the taxpayers.

F. Expense Reports Required. In order to receive expense reimbursements, Councilmembers shall complete and submit to the City Manager’s Office a Travel and Expense Reimbursement Form and Report (“Expense Report”) within a reasonable time after incurring the expense, but in no event, shall it be later than 30 days thereafter. The following rules shall also apply:

1. Each Expense Report shall be accompanied by all receipts documenting each expense with proof of the advance approval obtained from the City Council (or the City Manager, as applicable).

2. The Councilmember shall verify that the expenses for which reimbursement is sought were incurred on behalf of the City in the performance of official duties and otherwise meet the requirements of this Section IV.
3 0
7 7

3. All documents related to reimbursable expenditures, including, but not limited to, the Expense Report and actual receipts, are public records subject to disclosure under the Public Records Act.

Any personal information, e.g., credit card numbers, contained on any receipts may be redacted before publicly releasing such records.

G. City Manager Authority. The City Manager has the authority to determine the reasonableness of an expense and, as such, may disallow it for reimbursement. A request for reimbursement that has been disallowed by the City Manager may be appealed to the City Council who will make its decision at a regularly scheduled City Council Meeting under an agendized item requesting such appeal.

The decision of the City Council shall be final.

Discussion:

At the City Council meeting of April 18, 2023, it was moved by Mayor Jones and approved by a majority vote to agendize an item for discussion and possible action regarding providing a monthly mileage allowance to the Mayor in the amount of $250 and the Mayor Pro Tem in the amount of $150 per month for additional travel required in connection with the duties of said positions.

If an elected official is living at a residence without a lease/rental agreement the elected official must have the landlord or property owner sign an affidavit verifying, under penalty of perjury, the elected official's residency in landlord or owner's property.

2. Proof of current motor vehicle registration, if any motor vehicles are registered to the elected official for the residence claimed or proof of a valid California driver's license showing their address on their license is within the District they represent. If the residence address on either the driver's license or auto registration is in process of being changed, the elected official must provide a document from the California Department of Motor Vehicles (Form DMC14) verifying the change is in process. If the elected official does not own an automobile or does not have a California driver's license, the elected official must submit any other State of California issued identification 3 0

showing that their address on the identification document is consistent with the address shown on their current voter registration.

3. A current utility bill in the elected member's name showing that the service address is within the respective District for the Councilmember in the elected official's name. In the event a utility bill has not been generated, a letter from an authorized representative of the utility provider stating that an account has been opened in the elected official's name will suffice. If there is an agreement with a landlord or other legal entity, as verified by a rental contract or lease contract, that the landlord or other legal entity will pay the utility bill, the elected official must submit an affidavit signed by the landlord or the other legal entity's authorized legal representative, verifying that the landlord or other legal entity is responsible for paying the utility bill.

4. Other documents showing current residence address in the respective District for Councilmembers:

A. School records or any official document issued by an accredited educational institution, sealed by the school.

B. Current paycheck stub or personnel record issued by the elected official's employer.

C. Current homeowner or renter insurance policy.

D. Current documents issued by any California court or a federal court that lists the name of the elected official and their residence address.

E. Original record issued by any state or national bank, state or federal savings association, trust company, industrial loan company, state or federal credit union, or any institution or entity that has issued a credit card.

Additionally, the elected official must sign an affidavit verifying, under penalty of perjury, residency.

In the event that a Councilmember moved to a new residence within the District, after the filing of the previous affidavit, the elected official must confirm the new address within 60 days of moving by providing one of the documents listed in items 1 through 4 and an affidavit to the City Clerk.

Submitted By:

Andre de Bortnowsky, City Attorney

Subject:

Ability to suspend stipend/salary based on Councilmember misconduct Recommendation:

Any action is at the discretion of the City Council.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

Background:

At the March 21, 2023 City Council meeting, a motion was made by Councilmember Becerra and approved by majority of the Council to have the City Attorney look into the possibility of suspending the stipend/salary of Councilmembers who engage in various forms of misconduct. This Staff Report examines various issues surrounding such proposed salary suspension.

Discussion:

Government Code Section 36183 states that: “The [city] council may establish rules for the conduct of its proceedings. It may punish a member or other person for disorderly behavior at a meeting.” That said, no specific types of punishment are listed in this statute and no case has explored what types of punishment are permissible thereunder.

Chapter 2.16 of the Victorville Municipal Code (enacted pursuant to Government Code Section 36516 et seq.) sets the amount and requires payment of salaries to Councilmembers, but does not allow for such salaries to be changed during Councilmembers current terms of office. The method of setting salaries is initially based on the City’s population and increased thereafter in connection with the formula set forth in Government Code Section 36516(a). Government Code Section 36516(b) further appears to permit Councilmember salaries to be increased or decreased by a determination of the voters, which can be made at any municipal election. 3 0

While there appears to be no State statute, case law, or Attorney General Opinion supporting the ability of a city council to suspend the stipend/salary of one of its members, it has come to our attention that the City of Cypress (“Cypress”) recently adopted an ordinance allowing for the levying of fines, suspension of salary/stipends, and other forms of punishment for violations of the council’s rules of decorum (adopted via ordinance) and/or its “Civility, Conduct and Governance Policy.” It further appears that on at least on one occasion, Cypress did adopt a resolution of censure against one of its members which included a fine and salary suspension. It must be noted that the Ordinance adopted by Cypress was expressly limited to violations of the City’s rules of decorum and policies it had set as opposed to general acts of misconduct.

Through our research of this matter, we have been unable to find any other cities that have adopted similar ordinances or policies. However, we did learn that in 2016 the California State Legislature submitted a ballot measure to the voters (Proposition 50) to amend the California Constitution to permit the members of each house to suspend a member and deem the salary and benefits of that member to be forfeited for all or part of such suspension. Prior to the passage of Proposition 50, the Legislature had the power to suspend members for misconduct but lacked the ability to suspend pay or benefits of members, even when such misconduct included allegations of a criminal nature.

Arguably, an elected official has some claim that his or her government salary is an entitlement. As such, to the extent there is any deprivation of such an entitlement, at a minimum, a pre-deprivation due process hearing would likely be required.

Moreover, since the salary of Councilmembers is established in the Victorville Municipal Code (“VMC”), any attempt to modify salary provisions would require an amendment of the VMC by ordinance.

Furthermore, if the circumstances surrounding a violation involve an allegation of suppression of protected speech, it is also conceivable that any action to reduce or suspend a Councilmember’s stipend/salary or benefits could be challenged on the grounds that such action constitutes a First Amendment retaliation claim. There appears to be some case law to support such a theory.

The law in this area is unsettled at best. Given (1) that the rules regarding salaries in the Government Code and the VMC control the setting and changing of councilmember salaries; (2) the absence of any specific statute or constitutional provision authorizing suspension of pay of local elected officials who violate the rules of the body; (3) the limiting language in Government Code Section 36813 which restricts the ability to punish to a member to “disorderly behavior at a meeting”; and (4) the lack of legal precedent interpreting the scope of punishments that can lawfully be imposed under Section 36813, there is a colorable argument that suspension of salary/stipend is not a permissible punishment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the City Council wishes to pursue the adoption of an Ordinance to provide for the suspension of stipends/salaries, it would need to be very narrowly drafted and be specific as to which type and what level of misconduct it is seeking to restrain.

Subject:

Councilmember Reprimand for City Councilmember Blanca Gomez Recommendation:

Any action is at the discretion of the City Council.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

Background:

Allegations have been made against Councilmember Gomez that she is attaching her City business cards in connection with personal food and/or product deliveries within the City of Victorville and other areas in the Victor Valley. Specifically, there is evidence that her business card was attached to an Instacart delivery.

Unauthorized use of City business cards, which contain the City’s logo, is a violation of Chapter 8, Section III, subdivision I of the City Council Policy and Procedures Manual (“Policy Manual”). Improper use of the City logo is also prohibited by Chapter 8, Section II, subdivision B.1 of the Policy Manual and is a violation of Chapter 1.06 of the Victorville Municipal Code. Such use of public resources may also be a violation of California Government Code Section 8314. (See Attachment A).

The use of the City’s business cards in this manner may also create significant liability for the City to the extent a recipient of delivered items is in some way harmed as a result of the delivery. In such an event, a delivery recipient might look to the City for compensation.

Providing a business card with the delivery of food or other products may further give the recipient the impression that these products are endorsed by the City and may also create issues for the suppliers of such food or products to the extent such suppliers may not want to be affiliated with the City of Victorville.

Discussion:

To the extent it can be established that the aforementioned activities are in fact occurring, the recommendation would be to immediately transmit a Cease-and-Desist letter to Councilmember Gomez and to the extent said Cease-and-Desist letter is not complied with, the Council should consider a Resolution of Reprimand. In addition, the City should also consider notifying members of the public, as well as local businesses, that not only is this practice not being endorsed by the City, but it is also in violation of numerous City policies and laws and may also be in violation of State Law.
