These exhibits will include an aerial photograph of the parcel, with the boundary survey, o wner, APN, address, parcel size and take area all shown. The exhibits will be used by the team and City staff during the appraisal and acquisition discussions with the property owner.

Deliverables: P roperty Owner Exhibits (12)
TASK 4 – PREPARE RECORD DRAWINGS/AS-BUILTS (OPTIONAL)
The Dokken team will prepare the record drawings based on red -lined plans provided by the Resident Engineer and documentation in our files from RFI’s. The red lined plans should include any changes from the bid plans, including those documented in RFI’s. The Record Drawings will be prepared in AutoCAD Format. The Dokken team will prepare the final as - builts, modifying the original bid drawings electronically. The drafted as-built plans will be returned to the Resident Engineer for back-checking and signature before finalizing them.

Deliverables: R ecord Drawings

This chapter is organized into the following sections:

1.1 What Is a Specific Plan?

1.2 Purpose of the Specific Plan

1.3 Relationship to Other Plans

1.4 Plan Organization &

Use

1.1 What Is a Specific Plan?

A specific plan is a regulatory tool that local governments use to implement their g
eneral
p
lans and to guide development in a localized area. While the general plan is the primary guide for growth and development in a com munity, a specific plan is
able to focus on the unique
characteristics

of a special area by customizing the
planning process and land use regulations to that area. A s
pecific
p
lan is enacted
pur
suant to S
ection

et seq. of the Californi
a Govern
ment Code and
implement
s the
general plan by further refin
ing the objectives for the project area.

While Victorville’s status as a charter city exempts it from the requirements of this code, nonetheless this Specific Plan follows the provisions of the stat e code.

1.2 Purpose of the Specific Plan

The Old Town Specific Plan (the Plan) represents an update to the previous Old Town Specific Plan adopted in 1995. While the original plan focused on Old Town, this Plan expands the project area to include the area

along Seventh Street to the
south of the traditional Old Town core and the area north of the railroad tracks.

Please see
Figure 2.

Project Area
, in Chapter 2 of this Plan for a map showing the
Specific Plan area boundaries.

The Old Town Specific Plan r
epresents a blueprint for growth over the next 20
-
30 years. The purpose of the Specific Plan is to serve as a tool for revitilization
of the
Old Town, presenting
an

opportunity to transform this district into a unique,
vibrant, mixed
-
use focal point for the region. This Plan promotes higher -
density
mixed
-
use development in the project area to bring new housing opportunities to the Old Town that will accommodate some
of the new population growth that is
anticipated to occur over the plan period. The Plan encourages new businesses and jobs to locate in Old Town and implements standards and guidelines to promote an attractive and pedestrian
-
oriented Old Town that reflect
s its historic character.

2 The Old Town Specific Plan is adopted by the City Council and establishes design and development regulations to implement the General Plan. The Old Town Specific Plan is a regulatory document that will serve as the zoning ordinanc e for the
properties within its boundary. The Plan describes allowed land uses and densities, transportation and streetscape improvements, public signage, urban design guidelines, development standards, an infrastructure assessment, and implementation and
financing strategies and guidelines. The Plan establishes the nature, character, and intensity of development that is needed to create a successful Old Town.

1.3 Relationship to Other Plans

1.3.1 General Plan

The City of Victorville’s General Plan 2030
was adopted in October 2008. The
General Plan is the City’s overall guide for the use of Victorville’s resources, expresses the development goals of the community, and is the foundation upon which all land use decisions are made. The Specific Plan is a foc used tool for

detailed
guidance and
implementation of the General Plan as it relates to the Old
Town
project area.

According to the
Victorville

General Plan, the
Specific

Plan area is designated
“
Specific Plan” in the Old Town area covered by the previous

Specific Plan, primarily
Commercial in the area to the south along 7th Street, and a combination of Low Density Residential, Light Industrial, Mixed
-
Use Residential, and Open Space for the
area north of the railroad tracks. The General Plan expects that a

specific plan will
provide a detailed land use and circulation plan along with specific development and design standards for the Old Town.

1.3.2 1995 Old Town Specific Plan

The previous Old Town Specific Plan was adopted in April 1995. This plan encompa
sses an area of 173 acres and is roughly congruous with the traditional Old Town core of Victorville. The plan prescribes four land use districts in the Old Town:

Service Commercial, Storefront Commercial, Residential Apartment, and Residential Single Fami
ly, along with a restricted Industrial Overlay. The plan serves as a framework for the updated Old Town Specific Plan, which has been revised and updated to respond to current market conditions, community concerns, and planning best practices.

Old

Town Strategic Action Plan

This action plan was a very important step in the planning process that led to the development of this updated Old Town Specific Plan. The 2007 Old Town Strategic Action Plan provides a conceptual framework for revitalization o f the traditional Old
Town area and outlines action steps for successful implementation. Public outreach during the process was conducted to establish a vision for Old Town, and the action plan identifies a number of strategies to support the vision. Strat egies include the
development of standards and design guidelines, streetscape improvements, public signage, incentives for mixed
-
use development and residential infill, and the
establishment and promotion of a unique Old Town identity. These strategies are

fulfilled in this update to the Old Town Specific Plan.

1.3.4 Non
-
Motorized Transportation

Plan

This Plan was adopted in June 2010 to provide a safe network of facilities for pedestrians, hikers, bicyclists
, wheel chairs users and health enthusiasts that
will
link public facilities such as parks, open spaces, golf courses, the Victor Valley Transportaion Center, the Old Town Specific Plan area, the Victor Valley Community College, the Mojave Narrows Regional Park and other destinations. The plan will assis
t in revitilized Old Town by reducing auto trips, creating a liveable, healthy community where more people can walk and bicycle
, furthering the goal of
walkability in Old Town.

2.0 PLAN AREA CONTEXT AND

DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES
This chapter provides an understanding of the geographic, physical, and economic context and concludes with a summary of the development opportunities. The chapter is organized into the following sections:

2.1 Regional Context

2.2 Local Context

2.3 Economic Conditions

2.4 Physical Conditions

2.5 Opportunities & Constraints

2.1 Regional Context
The City of Victorville is located in the Mojave Desert region of San Bernardino County. Victorville is located along the Interstate 15 freeway, approximately 90 miles northeast of Los Angeles and 30 miles north of San Bernardino. Adjacent communities include the Town of Apple Valley to the east, the City of Adelanto to the west, and the City of Hesperia to the south. See Figure 2.1 for a regional map.

Victorville is a city rich in Route 66 heritage. Historic Route 66 passes through the center of the City and through the spine of the Old Town Specific Plan project area.

Victorville is situated along the Mojave River which forms, in general, a natural eastern boundary for the Specific Plan project area. Victorville is within the High Desert climate zone, which experiences all four seasons with temperatures ranging from below freezing in the winter months to over 100 degrees in the summer.

The population of the City in 2016 was 123,510 persons, including group quarters. 1 This number represents a 6.6% percent increase in population since the 2010 census, when the City had a population of 115,903. Currently, the City is experiencing an annual growth rate of 0.5%. However, this growth rate is considerably slower than the previous decade. From 2000 to 2010, the City experienced a significant population boom, growing 81%, from 64,029 to 115,903.

PAGE 2-3

2.2 Local Context
The project area comprises approximately 428 acres and is located between Interstate 15 and the eastern boundary of the city. The historic Old Town is the core of the project area and also includes the area north of the railroad tracks and the 7th Street corridor gateway leading into Old Town. Please see Figure 2.2 for a map showing the project area.

Historic Route 66 traverses the project area, leading northeast into town from Interstate 15 and then heading northwest along D Street. The Specific Plan area is organized in a grid network of blocks that orient themselves to 7 th and D streets.

Most blocks in the project area have mid-block alleyways.

Old Town is characterized by its small lots, compact form, and pedestrian scale. A number of historic buildings, including the Old Victor School, and cultural sites, such as the Route 66 Museum, contribute to the character of Old Town. At the intersection of D and 6th streets is the Victor Valley Transit Center, with a train stop along the Southwest Chief route connecting Los Angeles and Chicago.

The 7th Street corridor leading into the historic Old Town core is characterized by larger blocks, larger parcels, and buildings set back from the street with large surface parking lots adjacent to the sidewalk. It is an environment that prioritizes the car and is not as pleasant for walking as within the old Town core.

The area to the north of the railroad tracks is characterized by a lack of structure.

Single-family homes and community uses are scattered amidst a large number of vacant lots. The lack of sidewalks and the numerous empty lots create an inconsistent pedestrian environment. Additionally, this area is difficult to access, a priority this Specific Plan will address.

2.3 Economic Conditions
A complete market analysis was conducted to guide future investment and redevelopment efforts in the Old Town area over the life of the Specific Plan. The full economic and market analysis report is documented in Appendix B of this Plan.

The market analysis identifies the depth of potential market support for possible land uses, such as housing, office, retail, and entertainment, and suggests where the greatest initial investment should be made and resources devoted. A summary of the economic conditions identified in the report is provided below.

2.3.1 Housing Market Conditions
The residential real estate market has changed dramatically in the Victor Valley as a result of the economic recession and the ongoing mortgage crisis, which has led to unprecedented numbers of foreclosures across California and the nation. Currently, there are signs that the housing market may have reached bottom and is beginning to make a slow recovery.

The residential real estate market is affected by a high degree of uncertainty, making residential development risky except in specific markets and for specific projects that guarantee a return on investment. Ultimately, new residential development in Old Town would likely need to be differentiated from the typical single-family developments constructed in the region in order to attract a more urban-oriented demographic. As such, a higher-density product in a townhome configuration may be best suited for Old Town, as it would offer a development type more suited for a historic downtown environment. Multi-family rental units or condominiums are other types of housing that could find a niche market in Old Town. Condos currently comprise less than 1 percent of the housing market in Victorville and could be successfully marketed as a unique offering in the region if they were incorporated into a mixed-use or transit-oriented development within the broader vision for Old Town.

2.3.2 Retail & Office Market Conditions
Victorville currently captures a significant share of the sales in the region, mostly due to the heavy concentration of big-box retail uses and numerous shopping centers located along Interstate 15. Victorville is generating sales on a per capita basis that significantly exceed both the county and state averages. Retail sales revenues indicate that Victorville is operating as a regional retail center.

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PLAN AREA CONTEXT AND DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 2-5

In contrast to the city as a whole, which is characterized by more retail establishments than is typical throughout the state and county, Old Town currently experiences little retail sales potential. Old Town consists primarily of marginal commercial uses, exhibits high vacancy rates, and has experienced little new construction.

An analysis of the retail market extending to a distance equivalent to a 20-minute drive from Old Town illustrates that the entire region is capturing more than its fair share of expenditures in almost all categories. Those industries showing some sales leakage and potential sales opportunities at a regional level include electronic shopping and mail order, lawn and garden supply, specialty food stores, florists, vending machine operators, and sales of beer, wine, and liquor.

Revenue from retail sales has seen a steady decline in Victorville since 2007. There are some recent indications that sales declines may have bottomed out and are on the rebound in Victorville. While the overall retail market conditions are not favorable for Old Town Victorville, previous research cited some small-business owners expressing an interest in opening small offices or retail shops in the area.

Given this interest and projected population growth through the near to mid term, it is possible that some small-scale (5,000 to 20,000 square feet), locally serving retail (e.g., personal services, niche retailers, and small restaurants) may be feasible in Old Town, particularly if incorporated into a mixed-use-type development.

Creating a theme or thematic district to unify the various retail uses (e.g., Route 66 theme, Hispanic food stores, antique district) would further bolster business prospects in Old Town.

Little or no market currently exists for new commercial office development in Old Town Victorville. Nationally, the office market has been experiencing negative absorption, which has led to higher vacancy rates. In San Bernardino County, the office market is significantly weaker than the national averages. According to the Grubb & Ellis 2009 Second Quarter Office Trend Report, the metro office vacancy in San Bernardino County is 23.5 percent. Job losses and shrinking numbers of employees for many firms continue to result in weak demand for office space.

However, there are some signs of recovery. Given these conditions, in the short term, any new office developments should be focused on the defined needs of specific businesses and have guaranteed leasing agreements to eliminate market risks.

2.3.3 Tourism Market Conditions
Tourism presents an important long-term opportunity for Old Town Victorville.

Before tourism can play a significant part in revitalizing Old Town, the required infrastructure to support tourism in the area must be in place. Entertainment, retail, and cultural destinations in Old Town must first be established and effectively

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PLAN AREA CONTEXT AND DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 2-6

marketed to visitors. Local hotels would form an important part of the supporting tourism infrastructure.

The recent recession has had a negative impact on the national lodging industry.

Locally, this trend is affecting the economic viability of many hotels. Based on current trends, the addition of lodging establishments to the Old Town area would likely not be feasible until after 2012 and would depend on key indicators in the travel and tourism industry and local market developments. City investment in expansion of lodging sites should occur as indicators of economic growth begin to rise. Combined with a vision to create a strong sense of place in Old Town and a strategy to develop heritage tourism,
lodging facilities could play an
important role in future development.

Given Old Town Victorville’s
convenient location along Interstate
15 and the traffic counts in the
immediate vicinity, development of
lodging and the resulting transient
occupancy tax (TOT) revenues would
support redevelopment for the area. Currently, the city’s relatively low TOT rate could also give Old Town a competitive advantage over neighboring communities in terms of room rate pricing, though the market to draw visitors to Old Town must be created as part of an overall vision for the area.

Given the area’s rich cultural history, historical buildings, destinations such as the Route 66 Museum and High Desert Center for the Arts, and planned recreational improvements along the Mojave River, development can also take advantage of a heritage tourism market. A strong historical theme would bring stronger character and identity to housing, retail, and
recreational projects.

The market potential for Old Town
Victorville is currently dependent on
the economic recovery for the region.

However, private enterprises and
government agencies must continue
to make strategic investments in the
future. The future of Old Town will
depend more on a clear vision and strategic planning for the area than on the identification of specific market
opportunities that are currently not
supported by the facts on the ground.

Economic development of existing establishments and the addition of interesting retail, entertainment, or cultural destinations in Old Town over the next three to five years will help attract the critical residential, housing, and visitor-serving development that is expected to recover after 2012. At that time, phasing of residential and office development would occur as market conditions allow.

2.4 Physical Conditions

2.4.1 Vehicular Circulation System
The project area is focused along the 7th Street and D Street corridors. Old Town is characterized by a strong grid network of blocks that orient themselves along these two central corridors. The Old Town area has a near complete network of gridded streets and mid-block alleyways, which offer great access throughout the project area. Figure 2.3 shows the Old Town street network, and a full series of maps in Appendix C of this Plan illustrate a number of the existing circulation and parking conditions in the project area, including inventories of sidewalks, bicycle facilities, speed limits, public parking facilities, number of lanes, truck routes, and transit routes.

Old Town currently experiences high volumes of pass-through traffic, particularly along 7
th and D streets, creating an unpleasant environment for pedestrians and motorists alike. In order to create a comfortable Old Town experience, traffic will need to be calmed and managed. One alternative this Plan proposes is a long term circulation solution that would divert much of the faster pass-through traffic from 7th Street to Hesperia Road. This diversion would allow 7th Street to function as a traditional downtown main street where pedestrian facilities are enhanced and traffic speeds reduced. Please see Section 7.1 Vehicular Network in Chapter 7 of this Specific Plan for details.

2.4.2 Parking
There is currently a lack of on-street parking along the major arterials in Old Town.

See Figure 2.4 for a map of on-street parking and public parking lots. On-street parking offers a number of benefits, including slowing traffic, providing a buffer between pedestrians and traffic, and maximizing development potential of Old Town lots by reducing requirements for off-street parking. This Plan will increase on-street parking, particularly along 7
th Street where currently no parking is
permitted at anytime.

2.4.3 Park-and-Ride Lot
The only park -and-ride lot in the study area is the Victor Valley Transportation Center, located on the corner of 6th Street and D Street. The transportation center is serviced by motorcoach, passenger rail, and public bus. This facility also contains ten bicycle storage units.

2.4.4 Pedestrian Facilities
Pedestrian facilities are not consistently provided or maintained in Old Town and present a number of constraints.

Though continuous sidewalks are present along most arterial segments, there are a number of blocks either missing sidewalks or with sidewalks in poor condition that are in need of repairs. See Figure 2.5 for an inventory of Old Town sidewalks.

Improvements in these areas should be made to ensure smooth, continuous, and shaded sidewalks in order to fully realize Old Town as an inviting, safe, and comfortable place for pedestrians.

2.4.5 Bicycle Facilities
Bicycle facilities throughout the Old Town area support alternative modes of travel to the automobile. There is an existing Class I bicycle trail along the Mojave River at the north end of the study area. This area includes a bicycle parking facility at the train depot. Existing Class III bicycle routes (where vehicles and bicycles share the roadway) exist on 7th Street, Hesperia Road/9th Street, and D Street south of 7th Street. However, these routes do not provide bicycle signs, markings, and/or adequate shoulder width to accommodate bicycles, creating a difficult environment for cyclists. See Figure 2.6 for a map of bicycle facilities. As mentioned in Chapter 1, the City has a Non-Motorized transportation Plan set in place, which will help develop alternative modes of transportation in Old Town.

A number of bus and train routes connect Old Town to other parts of the city and to important regional destinations. Victor Valley Transit Authority (VVTA) operates two fixed routes with a number of stops throughout Old Town. Amtrak operates the Southwest Chief passenger train, which connects Los Angeles to Chicago. The rail line runs between D and E streets, and the train stops at the Victor Valley Transit Center, located at the intersection of D and 6
th streets. Amtrak also operates the
California Thruway Motorcoach, which connects Victorville to a number of locations throughout California and Nevada, including Bakersfield, Palm Springs, and Las Vegas. See Figure 2.7 for a map of Old Town transit facilities.

2.4.6 Urban Form and Character
The urban form in Old Town is characterized by a network of gridded streets and alleyways, which establish a strong framework to support a pedestrian-friendly environment. The historic Old Town core comprises a number of small, walkable blocks and compact, dense development. The 7th Street corridor leading into the traditional Old Town core has larger blocks and less intense development that is oriented to cars rather than to pedestrians.

Historic Route 66 traverses the project area. A number of historic buildings along the route reflect the historical significance of Victorville and its unique architectural style. The desert terrain and close proximity to the Mojave River offer exciting urban design opportunities for creating a distinct sense of place for Old Town Victorville.

While Old Town possesses a number of amenities, a mix of uses, and a human-scale environment, it lacks a strong identity and sense of place that will draw people in.

Safety and security concerns, together with a significant number of vacant and underutilized sites, unclean environment, and poor building conditions, contribute to an unattractive and uninviting district. However, the vacant and underutilized sites provide great opportunities for new catalytic development to revitalize Old Town and improve its image and character. The combination of historic Route 66, compact urban form, and unique desert terrain sets the stage for the possibility of a vital and vibrant Old Town.

2.4.7 Land Use
The project area contains a mix of land uses, including residential, retail, restaurant, office, industrial, institutional, and civic. This broad range of uses within close proximity to one another is essential for establishing a vital Old Town.

However, there are a prevalence of undesirable land uses in Old Town, such as car- oriented drive-throughs, auto sales and services, liquor stores, and surface parking lots, all of which will need to be controlled in order to maintain a safe and inviting pedestrian-oriented district.

2.4.8 Cultural and Recreational Facilities
Old Town Victorville hosts a number of cultural and recreational venues, including the Route 66 Museum, High Desert Center for the Arts, and Eva Dell Park. Old Town has the ability to build on these cultural resources to attract heritage tourism, lodging, and specialty retail and make Old Town a regional attraction.

2.4.9 Socioeconomics
A large and important barrier and a key to overcome for Old Town to become a successful and thriving downtown is the condition of the Old Town community as a whole. Due to several historic reasons, Old Town has been deteriorating for some time. This has evolved into several issues involving a depressed socioeconomic state. The homelessness, mental health issues, widespread drug and alcohol use, loitering and even prostitution have caused clear safety concerns in today’s Old Town. These symptoms of the socioeconomic state of Old Town creates a perception which Old Town must prevail over. The Specific Plan addresses this issue and it is an immediate concern of the residents of Old Town as evident from the first Old Town Specific Plan workshop.

2.5 Opportunities
& Constraints

2.5.1 Project Area Strengths &
Opportunities
Existing Housing – The existing
residents in the project area will
support Old Town businesses and
provide opportunities to bring
additional housing units to the Old
Town project area.

Mix of Uses – The mix of retail, industrial, institutional, office, civic, and residential land uses in the Old Town area will provide the framework for a vibrant Old Town environment.

Route 66 – Route 66 is near to become a National Historic Trail within the National Park Service. Old Town Victorville is unique in that it is a downtown set directly on Route 66. This national treasure can be utilized to attract tourists and patrons to the area as well as set its character.

Transit Center – The railroad station provides opportunities for more intense, mixed-use, transit-oriented development around the station.

Historic Buildings – These culturally significant resources contribute to the character and identity of Old Town Victorville.

Storefront Windows along 7
th Street – Shops provide the opportunity to build upon the identity of 7th Street as “Main Street.”
Route 66 Museum – This cultural gem is a regional attractor to Old Town Victorville.

Mojave River and the Mineral Bridge – The Mojave River Walk will serve pedestrians and equestrians with a system of recreational trails. There is an opportunity to link the river trail to Old Town through improved signage and pedestrian links. Additionally, with the City owning the Mineral Bridge, an opportunity exists for a pedestrian connection across the Mojave River as well.

Family-Oriented Amenities – A number of schools and parks are located in and adjacent to the project area. These provide a number of opportunities to bring family-oriented businesses and activities into the Old Town.

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PLAN AREA CONTEXT AND DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 2-18

Existing Infrastructure – The project area is currently served by a well-maintained system of streets, sidewalks, drainage, sewers, and utilities. The infrastructure will serve as the backbone for new Old Town projects.

Pedestrian-Friendly Form – The small-scale block pattern and compact network of gridded streets and alleyways provide the framework for a pleasant and comfortable walking environment.

Parcel Consolidation – There are a number of opportunities in the project area where multiple adjacent parcels are under a single ownership. These sites have the potential to create larger development sites that can catalyze Old Town improvements. The following map, Figure 2.8, shows an analysis of parcels that have a high probability of being able to be consolidated. These parcels include City- owned parcels, vacant parcels, and groupings of adjacent parcels that are under single ownership.

Disadvantaged Community – Within the economic condition of Old Town lays a silver lining. There are several funding opportunities for areas like Old Town and in fact, several grants are only given to projects which include a disadvantaged community. Within Implementation Chapter 9, the Specific Plan describes these opportunities.

Vacant Junior High School – This large, vacant and very centralized property provides an excellent opportunity to create a synergistic development. The Specific Plan has identified this as a future community and regional recreation/cultural site.

I-15 Mojave River Project – Currently Caltrans is working on a large project to improve the circulation of the freeway between ‘D’ Street and Stoddard Wells Road. This includes an outer highway and bridge from ‘E’ Street to Stoddard Wells Road and improved on and off ramps at ‘D’ Street, ‘E’ Street and Stoddard Wells Road. Although this project is causing traffic congestion in the short term, the long term effects will benefit Old Town greatly.

2.5.2 Project Area Weaknesses & Constraints
Existing Auto-Related Businesses – Auto-oriented land uses dominate the 7th Street corridor streetscape leading into the
historic Old Town. These land uses are
in conflict with pedestrian activity and
pedestrian safety, which are needed
to support a traditional downtown
environment.

OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PLAN AREA CONTEXT AND DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 2-19

100-Year Floodplain – The floodplain constrains new development opportunities along the northeastern edge of the project area.

Traffic – Regional cut-through traffic and vehicle speeds create barriers for pedestrian travel.

Noise – Railroad noise and Highway 18 traffic is a nuisance for local residents and workplaces.

Negative Perception – The perception of Old Town Victorville as unclean, unkempt, and unsafe will need to be transformed in order to attract new development. The Specific Plan addresses the current perception of Old Town and is one of the key issues for Old Town to overcome in order to succeed.

Safety – Crime, including property vandalism, personal safety, violence, drug and alcohol use, prostitution, gang activity, homelessness all must be addressed in the short term and long term. This Specific Plan will address the long term issue. Safety is a key to Old Town’s perception and success.

Homelessness – Homelessness has been a major issue for Old Town and the Mojave River area for some time. Although homelessness itself is not a crime and the community of Old Town is very engaged in helping the homeless, there must be a balance found in order for development to return to Old Town and it’s perception to change.

Figure 2.9 Opportunities and Constraints Diagram summarizes the opportunities and constraints described above on a single map. The opportunity sites, identified by yellow stars, were selected based on their high potential for parcel consolidation and their optimal location. Sites along the primary corridors or other strategic locations, such as gateways into the project area, were selected for their potential to act as catalytic projects to encourage additional redevelopment in the project area.

3.0 VISION PLAN AND PROCESS
This chapter translates the findings from Chapter 2 Plan Area Context and Development Opportunities into a compelling vision for Old Town’s future development and describes the process involved in reaching this vision. This chapter is organized into the following sections:

3.1 The Vision

3.2 The Visioning Process

3.1 The Vision

3.1.1 Vision Statement
The Old Town Specific Plan area will be a distinct place in the region that attracts people, activities, and commerce to the area. Development in the project area will be of a high quality that fosters a sense of place and instills pride in the community.

Old Town will be an economically vibrant, walkable destination that is inviting to pedestrians, with a mix of different housing types and uses that serve residents and attract visitors. The 7th Street corridor will be redefined as the main street of Old Town, and the architecture will reflect a contemporary take on the city’s historic Route 66 heritage. Specialty retail uses like antique stores that build on the historic Route 66 significance will further enhance the retail experience. Old Town’s considerable historic resources, transit station, river walk, and specialty retail make it an important regional destination in the Victor Valley.

The Old Town Victorville of tomorrow will:

Honor its heritage
• Celebrate Victorville’s Route 66 heritage by integrating modern interpretations of past elements into new development, signage, and streetscape elements. • Define 7
th Street as the main street of Old Town that serves both tourists and locals with ground-floor shops and businesses.

3.2 Visioning Process
The Vision for the Old Town Victorville Specific Plan area was developed based on the 1995 Specific Plan, the 2007 Strategic Action Plan, Community input on vision plan alternatives, and current findings from economic, circulation, and urban design analyses. Both the 1995 Specific Plan and the 2007 Strategic Action Plan had a smaller geographic focus than this current plan, focusing only on the Old Town core. While these documents and their public outreach processes were instrumental in developing the Vision for this Specific Plan, the results of these efforts were further refined to account for current analysis as well as the additional geographic area.

3.2.1 1995 Old
Town Specific
Plan
The 1995 plan
envisioned a
revitalized and
pedestrian-oriented
environment unique
to the Victor Valley.
7 th Street was
identified as the
focal point of the
area, with ground-
floor retail
commercial and
residences above.
‘D’ Street was
viewed as the
primary
transportation
corridor, lined with
commercial uses. A mix of residential types was focused on the streets behind 7 th
Street and ‘D’ Street. The 1995 plan diverges from the current vision in that it did not envision the Old Town functioning as a downtown and favored a lower-intensity development pattern.

3.2.2 2007 Old Town Strategic Action Plan (Action Plan) The City of Victorville began the Old Town planning process in November 2003 to determine how and where to stimulate development and revitalization in Old Town. The City conducted stakeholder interviews and a community visioning

PAGE 3-5

workshop to learn more about the community’s perspective for the development of Old Town. A dozen Victorville
residents, property and business owners, and City government officials formed the Old Town Task Force Committee, which oversaw the planning process.

The Action Plan identifies a vision for Old Town focused on 7 th Street as the heart of
Old Town, with streetscape improvements, new mixed-use development, and housing infill to propel the transformation of Old Town into a pedestrian-oriented environment that fosters a sense of identity and place. The following quote from the Strategic Action Plan is key to providing an understanding and foundation for the Old Town Vision that is described in this Specific Plan.

The Concept [for the Old Town vision] is based on creating a vibrant pedestrian friendly multi- story “main street” corridor along the highly visible and easily accessible 7th Street. A wide mix of residential and retail uses like cafes, restaurants, small grocery stores, and antique shops, will activate 7th Street. New buildings and streetscape improvements that include wide, shaded sidewalks, lighting, street furniture, and on-street parking will transform 7th Street as a great place to shop and live. Strong vertical elements along 7th at Forrest and D Streets will provide visual gateways into Old Town and enhance its overall identity.

Single and multi-family residential sectors are maintained on either side of the commercial corridor. Infill development including townhomes, attached and detached single family houses, apartments and condominiums will strengthen these residential areas and help support 16 hour life along Main Street. Existing community amenities like schools and parks remain key community focal points in the residential sectors.

A cultural node encompassing the High Desert Center of the Arts, Fire Museum and Mormon Springs Memorial could be enhanced by creating complimentary uses like artist live-work lofts around the 8th & C intersection area. Although a few blocks away, Route 66 Museum complements the cultural node.

The Action Plan suggests primary land uses and catalytic opportunity sites for Old Town. Housing, specialty retail, heritage tourism, and government offices are elected as the key uses to revitalize Old Town. 7
th Street will be enhanced as the
designated main street through Old Town, lined with street furnishings, landscaping, and multi-story mixed-use retail. Infill housing opportunities are identified primarily along 6th Street.

3.2.3 Community Vision Workshop #1
The first of three public workshops was held on november 17, 2016 at the Old Bank of America building on Seventh Street. This first public workshop was an introduction to the proposed Specific Plan, including past efforts, opportunities and constraints and most importantly to gather input on the vision for Old Town’s future. Several vision statements were presented including • Honor Old Town’s Heritage
• Create a Safe and Walkable Old Town
• Become a Distinct Mixed-Use Area
• Become Attractive to New Businesses and Residents
• Become a community Cultural Arts District

It was clear that the resident’s and business owners of Old Town want a safe and walkable environment for Old Town. Although many of the above statements can help to contribute to a safer Downtown that is more walkable; to become a vibrant walkable downtown the OTSP plans on improving pedestrian safety in the short term by slowing traffic down on Seventh Street through a ‘road diet’ by reducing the street from four lanes to two lanes. This also includes the improvement of pedestrian crossings with bulb-outs to lessen the distance to cross the streets and fewer lanes to maneuver. Additionally, funding has already been approved by the City Council for increased lighting, therefore lighting will be improved and added strategically throughout Old Town with citizen input. Further homelessness will need to be curbed while the increase of law enforcement presence will add to the safety and create a secure feel ing in Old Town.

PAGE 4-1

4.0 LAND USE PLAN
The Land Use Plan dictates the appropriate use of land and sets the character for development in the Old Town Specific Plan area. This chapter provides the framework to develop the Old Town as a mixed -use, pedestrian-friendly environment that is the focus for new higher -intensity development in the city. The Land Use Plan comprises the text in this chapter and the Land Use Map illustrating the land use mix and distribution within the Old Town area. This chapter constitutes the zoning regulations for property within the Specific Plan area.

This chapter contains the following sections:

4.1 Land Use Districts describe each of the land use categories for the Specific Plan area and reflect the development strategy in terms of mix of uses, density, and intensity of development. These land use districts are consistent with the land use policies and designations in the City’s General Plan.

4.2 Land Use Map for Old Town Victorville translates the community’s vision for the Specific Plan area by identifying specific land use designations for individual properties.

4.3 Development Types illustrate appropriate building product types for each of the land use districts.

4.4 Permitted Uses Table identifies allowable uses for all of the land use categories permitted within the Specific Plan area. Permitted use listings are provided by general use category on the basis of common function or characteristics. For a detailed list of use definitions, see Appendix A: Glossary.

4.5 Accessory Uses allows for compatible uses associated with the primary use but to the extent that it does not overwhelms the principal use.

4.6 Special Require ments for C ertain Uses - some ues may negatively impact the neighboorhood or adjacent uses, therefore to ensure these uses are developed or operated properly, certain requirements have been included.

4.7 Process to Determine Similar Uses establishes an administrative process for the zoning Administrator to determine that land uses are similar to other permitted uses with specific findings of similarity, compatibility, and consistency.

4.8 Temporary Uses – Allows for short term uses up to several times a year that are not necessarily associated with the primary use. These use should promote and generate pedestrian activity within the Old Town Specific Plan area.

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | LAND USE PLAN

4.9 Nonconforming Uses provision identifies the applicable C ity Municipal Code for managing existing uses that do not conform to the regulations of this plan.

4.10 Historical Resource Preservation allows for the designation and protection of Historical Places and Buildings.

4.11 Historic Wall Murals allows for the installation of Historic Murals in Old Town.

4.1 Land Use Districts
The Specific Plan land use districts implement the goals, policies , and objectives of the City’s General Plan. The land use districts reinforce Old Town as the traditional downtown retail core supported by residential and employment uses in the area.

The land use districts established by this chapter are intended to:
• Promote the integration of compatible land uses;
• Provide a concentration of high-density commercial, office, and residential uses;
• Encourage greater recreational use of the open space areas north of the railroad tracks;
• Establish a location for cottage industry, live/work, and research and development in Old Town; and
• Identify the area adjacent to the transit station as a focal point in the downtown through the development of a plaza and high quality design features; and
• Prrovide for an anchor development to support the community.

Table 4.1 below lists each land use district with corresponding symbol, description, and listing of allowed density and intensity of land use. Additional development standards for each district are outlined in Chapter 5.0.

4.2 Old Town Victorville Land Use Mix
The Land Use Map shown in Figure 4.1 is the blueprint for the development and use of land in Old Town. The Land Use Map is intended to transform the existing project area to an environment characterized by a dense development pattern with a mix of residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. The mix and concentration of higher-intensity land uses shown on the Land Use Map is intended to establish Old Town as the desired place in the city to live, work, shop, and open a business. The existing rail station is anticipated to act as a catalyst for future development, as growing numbers of residents and workers are expected to use the station. The area adjacent the transit station will be transformed to a large pedestrian plaza and focal point of Old Town.

The Land Use Map demonstrates how the land use districts relate to the hierarchy and function of the streets throughout Old Town.

The hierarchy of streets is as follows:
7 th Street as Main Street
Hesperia Road/9th Street as the bypass moving fast traffic away from Old Town D Street as a commercial corridor
Minor streets located behind the three major streets provide supporting uses to the downtown
The three main corridors in the downtown—7 th Street, Hesperia Road, and D Street— experience the most traffic and get the most visibility and are therefore the best location for commerce. Retail storefronts are required along the ground - floor street frontage of 7 th Street and D Street to activate these important pedestrian-oriented streets. Residential and downtown service uses are located on minor streets behind the major corridors and provide the population and services necessary to support Old Town businesses.

4.6.1 Veterans Memorial
The Veterans Memorial located on the northeast corner of Forrest and Seventh Streets is a cherished memorial for not only veterans, but for the residents of Old Town and the citizens of Victorville. Due to the importance of this memorial and the fact that parades and other gatherings often occur at and near the memorial, future land uses that will occur adjacent to this site must take this sensitive land use into account during development. Therefore, any use and/or development that will occur on the adjacent vacant parcels must provide for a public benefit buffer and amenity around the memorial that shall be installed concurrently with the development. The buffer and feature may be utilized during gatherings at the memorial by the general public and may be as basic as grass or concrete with benches and/or may contain an arbor or trelis and landscaping. The exact size and d esign of the buffer and amenity shall be determined during the time of project entitlement and in the case of a mix ed-use development, the feature may be counted toward any open space and/or amenity requirment for that project.

4.6.2 Low-Barrier Navigation Centers

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | LAND USE PLAN

FINAL | APRIL 2023
PAGE 4-21

1. It offers services to connect people to permanent housing through a services plan that identifies services staffing.

2. Referrals and intakes of persons into a Low Barrier Navigation Center shall not occur as walkups. The facility shall be linked to a coordinated entry system, so that assessments are conducted prior to persons arriving for admittance to the facility. "Coordinated entry system" means a centralized or coordinated assessment system developed pursuant to Section 576.400(d)(d) or Section 578.7(a)(8)(a)(8), as applicable, of Title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as those sections read on January 1, 2020, and any related requirements, designed to coordinate program participant intake, assessment, and referrals.

3. It complies with Chapter 6.5 (commencing with Section 8255) of Division 8 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, which includes the incorporation of the Core Components of Housing First:
i. Tenant screening and selection practices that promote accepting applicants regardless of their sobriety or use of substances, completion of treatment, or participation in services.
ii. Applicants are not rejected on the basis of poor credit or financial history, poor or lack of rental history, criminal convictions unrelated to tenancy, or behaviors that
indicate a lack of "housing readiness."
iii. Acceptance of referrals directly from shelters, street outreach, drop -in centers, and other parts of crisis
response systems frequented by vulnerable people
experiencing homelessness.
iv. Supportive services that emphasize engagement and
problem solving over therapeutic goals and service plans that are highly tenant -driven without predetermined
goals.
v. The use of alcohol or drugs in and of itself, without other violations, is not a reason for eviction.
vi. In communities with coordinated assessment and entry systems, incentives for funding promote tenant selection plans for supportive housing that prioritize eligible
tenants based on criteria other than "first -come-first- serve," including, but not limited to, the duration or
chronicity of homelessness, vulnerability to early
mortality, or high utilization of crisis services.

Prioritization may include triage tools, developed
through local data, to identify high -cost, high -need
homeless residents.

vii. Case managers and service coordinators who are trained in and actively employ evidence -based practices for
client engagement, including, but not limited to,
motivational interviewing and client -centered
counseling.
viii. Services are informed by a harm- reduction philosophy that recognizes drug and alcohol use and addiction as a part of tenants' lives, where tenants are engaged in
nonjudgmental communication regarding drug and
alcohol use, and where tenants are offered education
regarding how to avoid risky behaviors and engage in
safer practices, as well as connected to evidence- based treatment if the tenant so chooses.
ix. The facility may include special physical features that accommodate disabilities, reduce harm, and promote
health and community and independence among
tenants.

5.0 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
The development standards establish rules for site layout, parking, building placement, and building form for each of the land use districts. An important initiative of the Old Town Specific Plan is to clearly spell out development standards that shape the desired urban form. Building intensities are regulated through conformance to the prescribed development standards (i.e., height, setbacks, parking, form, and massing). These standards are designed to simplify, streamline, and customize the standards and requirements described in the City’s Development Code (Title 16) for development and reuse within the Old Town Area.

Standards are mandatory requirements that must be satisfied for all new projects and building renovations for any major modification of the exterior. Major modifications are defined as any alterations of more than 10 percent of the existing building façade or area. Refer to Chapter 9: Implementation, Section 9.4 Plan Administration.

Unless otherwise specified in the Specific Plan, permit requirements and site planning and development standards are as specified in the City of Victorville Development Code (Title 16). Where the Specific Plan and Development Code standards differ, the Old Town Specific Plan standards prevail for development within the Old Town Area. When the Specific Plan is silent (e.g., wireless communication facilities), the City of Victorville Development Code (Title 16) requirements remain in force.

This chapter is organized into the following sections:

5.1 Development Standards

5.2 Parking Reductions

5.3 Frontage Types

5.4 Building Types

5.1 Development Standards
The objectives of the development standards are to:
• Prioritize the pedestrian and promote pedestrian amenities in the design of new development;
• Promote new development that responds to the local context and historical Route 66;
• Encourage infill development and adaptive reuse of historical sites;

• Encourage mixed-use development; and
• Demonstrate the significance of the role and character of the 7th Street Corridor (Historic Route 66) within the downtown.

6.1 Architecture

6.1.1 Architectural Style
The desired architectural style for Old Town development should draw upon the architectural vernacular commonly associated with Route 66 heritage and reflect elements of the below architectural styles that will be further defined in this section:
• Mid-Century Modern
• American Roadside
• Googie
New development and remodels of existing buildings should make a strong effort to demonstrate a contemporary take on the architectural elements of these styles, described below. The guidelines in this section are intended to pull inspiration from these styles and encourage creative use of materials that are modern and available.

Mid-Century Modern
1 This style is defined as an architectural, interior, and product design form that generally describes mid-twentieth century developments in modern design, architecture, and urban development from roughly 1933 to 1965. This style emphasized creating structures with ample windows and open floor plans with the intention of opening up interior spaces and bringing the outdoors in. Many mid-century houses utilized then-groundbreaking post and beam architectural design that eliminated bulky support walls in favor of walls seemingly made of glass.

At the core of the style is an appreciation for nature and the simplicity of form, also called minimalism. This appreciation of nature is most notable in the way that natural materials like stone and wood are incorporated as much for their beauty as for their structural qualities.

American Roadside2
Also known as novelty or mimetic architecture, this figurative style evolved in the United States during the 1950s and represents a programmatic approach to building design. Buildings are shaped to mimic, or copy, their function or to suggest objects associated with their function.

The mid-twentieth century was the heyday of roadside architecture.

Commercial buildings were designed to catch the attention of potential customers. A coffee shop might be shaped like a coffee cup.

A diner might be painted to resemble a hot dog. Even the most inattentive passerby would know instantly what was featured on the menu.

Googie
3 This architectural period was born of the post-World War II car culture and thrived in the 1950s and 1960s. Reflecting high-tech space-age ideas, the Googie style grew out of the Streamline Moderne, or Art Moderne, architecture of the 1930s. Googie describes a futuristic, often flashy, building style that evolved in the United States.

Often used for restaurants, motels, bowling alleys, and assorted roadside businesses, Googie architecture was designed to attract customers.

Signature features, including bold angles, colorful signs, plate glass, sweeping cantilevered roofs, and pop-culture imagery, captured the attention of drivers on adjacent streets. Googie has also been known as Populuxe, Doo-Wop, Coffee Shop Modern, Jet Age, and Space Age. It is also sometimes identified as part of a larger overall movement of space-age industrial design.

Art Deco4
A style of decorative art developed originally in the 1920’s with a revival in the 1960’s, marked chiefly by geometric motifs, streamlined and curvilinear forms, sharply defined outlines, often bold colors, and the use of synthetic materials such as plastics.

Streamlined Moderne or Art Moderne is a late type of Art Deco that emerged in this period during the 1930’s. This style is emphasized by curving forms and long horizontal lines.

The below signage concepts are excerpts from the public wayfinding program elements in Chapter 7. These examples are included for reference and inspiration for private sign design using the recommended color palette.

6.1.4 Storefront Design
• To enhance the pedestrian experience, storefront elements should be unified.

These elements include signs, graphics, awnings, lighting, and color. • The use of dark-colored, reflective, or obscure window glazing is discouraged.

Instead, the use of clear window glazing is strongly recommended. • The use of recessed windows is encouraged to reduce glare, and the use of recessed entryways is encouraged to identify entrances, provide weather protection, and provide a transition zone between the sidewalk and building interior.
• To better display goods, ground-floor retail shops should make use of windows that contain a high percentage of glass.
• Given Victorville’s intense summer heat, building design should provide sufficient shade and respite for the pedestrian. When possible, building and streetscape design should maximize views of the stunning desert landscape that surrounds Old Town.
• The use of cantilevered awnings and geometric canopies is encouraged to protect pedestrians and to add interest to storefronts and reinforce the modern architectural theme for the area.

• The design and placement of awnings, canopies, galleries, and arcades should correspond to the building’s scale, proportion, and overall design. • Canvas and metal are appropriate materials for awnings and canopies. • Businesses with rear entrances located along alleys or parking areas are encouraged to improve this entrance and the corresponding façade with architectural features, such as signage, lighting, and awnings.

entrance more desirable to pedestrians, businesses are encouraged to construct, install, and/or place pedestrian amenities, including landscaping, enhanced paving, pedestrian-scale light fixtures, and outdoor seating, along the alleyway.
• Creative designs that establish a unique identity for a project are encouraged; however, these must be executed within the boundaries of the Specific Plan area’s established character.
• Corporate chain or franchise architecture is strongly discouraged, unless the project’s design is consistent with the desired scale and character of Old Town Victorville.
• Development should feature a consistent design concept that is expressed on all exterior elevations of the buildings on the site.
• Entries should be well defined, face directly to the main public street or street corner, and be well illuminated. Dark entry spaces are discouraged. • Building design features should respond to the local climatic conditions and enhance comfort for people both indoors and outdoors. Examples of such features include arcade and gallery frontage types, awnings, and sunshades.

6.2 Private Sign Design

6.2.1 Guidelines for the 7th Street and D Street Corridors To emphasize Old Town Victorville’s location along and important historical relationship to the former US Route 66, signage along 7th Street and D Street should pay homage to the time of the highway’s heyday in the city. The objective is not to erect signs that replicate the signage prevalent in the area during this period, but is instead to establish a “modern Route 66” signage theme that creatively melds historical and contemporary elements and styles.
• The preferred sign type is made from metal, painted with a porcelain finish, and contains neon elements, such as lettering, an outline, and possibly a logo.

These signs should feature angular geometric configurations and may have animated elements. Depending upon the location, these signs may be placed upon the building’s roof or be pole-mounted.
• Signs painted onto blank building walls are also encouraged, provided they include characteristics of Route 66 roadside design and relate to the highway’s automobile culture.
• The use of lettering styles, colors, and fonts that were popular during the 1950s and 1960s is encouraged. Please refer to section 6.1.3 for information on preferred color palette.

Creative designs that establish
a unique identify for a project
are encouraged.

6.2.2 General Sign Guidelines
All signage should complement the project design, be compatible with the character of Old Town Victorville, and be designed for pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists. Recognizing that not all signage in every new development or renovation project can be a custom themed design, the following guidelines are included for use in designing all other Old Town signs.
• Signs should complement the style and character of the development and be integrated with the building architecture.
• Signs must be professionally designed and fabricated. • Appropriate sign materials shall include metal, fiberglass, wood, concrete, neon, screen print on canvas awnings, or painted graphics on building surfaces. • Signs must be maintained in good repair.
• The use of small, pedestrian-oriented signs is strongly encouraged. • The use of hanging signs, projecting signs, window signs, wall signs, and awning signs is encouraged.
• The use of pole signs is strongly discouraged.
• Roof signs, plastic, internally illuminated box signs, and signs with moving (not flashing), or animated illumination are encouraged only if the style of the sign is reflective of the signature architectural styles as described in section 6.1.

6.3 Mixed Use

6.3.1 Site Planning & Building Siting
• Site designs should be pedestrian-oriented, not dominated by parking lots, automobile use, or unattractive utilities.
• To enhance the street frontage, safety, and social interaction, building edges shall generally be aligned with the edge of the public right-of-way. Slight deviations from this configuration can be made to allow for play in massing and scale of buildings and to facilitate the construction of pocket plazas. • Buildings should be arranged to define, connect, and activate pedestrian paths and public spaces.
• Buildings and windows should be located in a manner that maximizes the visibility of entryways, pathways, and on-site parking areas and to promote natural surveillance and security.
• The preservation and enhancement of trees, topography, and other natural features existing on the site is encouraged.

Arrange buildings to define, connect,
and activate pedestrian paths and
public spaces.

Align buildings to public right-of-way.

Deviations can be made for massing
and pocket plazas.

PAGE 6-17

6.3.2 Form, Massing & Articulation
• Mixed-use buildings shall be at least two stories tall. To help further create a sense of urban enclosure along the street, it is encouraged that buildings be constructed to a height of three to four stories.
• The fourth floor of a building may be stepped back from the building’s front façade by a minimum of 5 feet and a maximum of 10 feet. • It is encouraged that buildings be designed to include a rhythm and scale of fenestration (doors and windows) that unifies and complements the adjacent buildings.
• To establish nodes in Old Town Victorville’s mixed-use areas, certain buildings should stand out as more extensively designed.

6.3.3 Building Usage
• Buildings should contain a mixture of residential with ground-floor retail and small office uses. Residential areas should be confined to the upper floors and along alleys. Commercial space, primarily comprising restaurants, cafés, and neighborhood-serving retail, should be located on the building’s ground floor, facing onto the street.

6.3.4 Landscaping
• Development should make extensive use of landscaping to accomplish many objectives, including:
– Add texture to walls and other vertical surfaces.
– Bring buildings down to human scale.
– Provide shade.
– Complement and enhance the architecture.
– Screen undesirable views and reduce noise.
– Establish a connection to the desert through the use of regionally appropriate species and landscape design techniques.

6.3.5 Circulation & Access
• Circulation systems should be designed to avoid conflicts between vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic.
• The site design should provide a network of convenient and safe pedestrian pathways to connect areas on the site to building entrances, adjacent properties, transit stops, and public rights-of-way. It is strongly encouraged that developments provide continuous, direct pathways, street crossings, elements that create visual interest, shade, site furnishings, and safety for pedestrians.
• Blank wall space adjacent to pedestrian pathways should be mitigated by articulated wall planes, landscaping, and/or covered walkways. • To create a sense of arrival, pedestrian and vehicular entrances should be clearly identified and easily accessible. It is strongly encouraged that these areas feature enhanced paving, landscaping, and special architectural features. • To reduce the number of driveway curb cuts and provide for convenience, safety, and efficient circulation, it is strongly encouraged that adjoining non- residential developments establish reciprocal access.
• Site access should be provided by alleys, from the rear, or via side streets as well as frontage along Seventh Street from ‘D’ Street to Forrest. • Drive-Thru facilities are conditionally permitted within the Mixed-Use Service (MUS) and MUS Overlay (MUSO) Districts. They shall only be placed behind the building and wrap on the interior side only. Drive-thru facilities shall not be permitted adjacent to or visible from the front or street side right-of-ways.

6.3.6 Parking
• On-street parking should
be located in front of the
building, and on-site parking
should be located behind, next
to, under, or within the building.
• Parking areas shall be
well connected to the street by
pedestrian mews/paseos. The
entries to these spaces shall be
articulated to indicate the presence of parking.
• Access to on-site parking should be provided by alleys, from the rear, or via side streets.
• Large parking fields shall be avoided. Instead, site designs should incorporate small, connected parking lots that utilize shared driveways. • Shared parking is encouraged wherever possible. Parking lot designs should provide safe and convenient pedestrian access. This includes creating wide, well-lit walkways that connect on-site pedestrian circulation systems in parking lots to public sidewalks and building entries and incorporating pedestrian drop- off locations within overall parking lot circulation patterns. • It is strongly recommended that developments provide bicycle racks. These shall be placed in a well-lit, secure, and highly visible location near the primary entrance(s) to a building and shall not obstruct the designated pedestrian pathways.
• Surface parking areas should be shaded with trees, landscaping, trellises, or other shading devices.

6.3.7 Plazas & Outdoor Spaces
Old Town Victorville’s mixed-use areas should incorporate many kinds of open spaces that complement a variety of activities. Appropriate open spaces include plazas, courtyards, forecourts, outdoor dining/café seating areas, and pedestrian mews/paseos.
• Public outdoor spaces shall be well designed and complement the project’s architecture. It is recommended that open spaces incorporate a combination of accent materials, site furniture, shade structures, accent lighting, color, texture, art, or other focal elements.
• Plazas should provide ample pedestrian amenities. These may include seating, pedestrian lighting, planters, fountains, drinking fountains, distinctive paving, public art, landscaping, and bicycle racks.
• To encourage the use of plazas and discourage unwanted activity within the spaces, it is recommended that they be located in highly visible locations and visually linked to the street.
• To introduce moisture into the air and cool summer temperatures in semi- enclosed areas, designs are strongly encouraged to place water features in public spaces such as courtyards and plazas.
• Shade trees and shaded seating areas are strongly encouraged in public spaces to provide protection from the sun.

6.3.8 Lighting
• Lighting should provide visual interest and security and complement the project’s architectural and landscape design.
• Pedestrian pathways and building entrances should be sufficiently lit to enhance public safety and security in those areas.
• To protect the night sky and prevent off-site glare, exterior light fixtures must shield the light and direct illumination downward utilizing narrow spectrum LED lighting.
• Energy-efficient lighting solutions should be considered.

6.3.9 Service & Storage
• Developments should adequately plan for and screen from public view storage and service areas, including garbage collection, recycling, fire, and utilities.

Appropriate methods to accomplish this screening include a combination of building design, landscaping, berming, walls, and/or location. • Chain-link fences and/or gates are prohibited for screening purposes.

6.4 Green Development

6.4.1 Green Site Design
Each project site should be designed to reduce water runoff and consumption, to minimize the heat island effect and solar access, to increase natural ventilation, and to incorporate the current standards for sustainable development practices. • Stormwater runoff should be detained and retained by maximizing the use of pervious surfaces and vegetative ground cover. This includes the following considerations:
– The use of permeable paving, pavers, turf, stone, brick, and decomposed granite is encouraged.
– The use of natural topographic features or built swales to filter site drainage is encouraged.
– Roof drainage should be routed through turf or other landscaping to treat stormwater runoff and allow percolation and groundwater recharge. • To reduce water consumption for landscaping, the use of native vegetation is encouraged.
• The use of recycled water for landscaping is encouraged. • The site should be oriented to respond to solar access and to maximize natural ventilation. Buildings and landscaping should be placed in a manner that maximizes solar access during the cooler months and minimizes it during the warmer months.

• It is strongly encouraged that the project be designed to reduce the heat island effect. Examples of appropriate measures to accomplish this include green roofs, light-colored materials, and landscaping.
• It is encouraged that LEED, or similar standards and thresholds, be used to improve overall site and building quality in terms of energy efficiency and renewable resources.

6.4.2 Green Building Design
Consideration should be given to incorporating green building practices into every project design. These practices should focus on minimizing heat gain during summer months and heat loss during winter months.
• To reduce energy demand, the use of natural climate control techniques is encouraged. Examples of such techniques include appropriately orienting buildings, using light-colored materials and high-albedo (white) roofs, incorporating green roofs and roofs with larger eaves, constructing thick walls that feature recessed windows, and planting deciduous trees to provide shade coverage for south-facing windows.
• To provide natural light indoors, the abundant usage of windows is encouraged. Wherever possible, windows should be placed appropriately to provide cross-ventilation and promote natural cooling.
• To reduce interior temperatures during the summer months, it is encouraged that sun control and external shading devices be placed over windows.

Examples of shading devices include awnings, shutters, sunshades, vertical fins, overhangs, eaves, and trellises.
• Building materials made from recycled/green materials are strongly encouraged.
• It is required that new project designs incorporate renewable energy sources, such as integrated solar panels. Whenever solar panels are used, careful consideration should be given to placing the panels in a manner that prevents reflection and glare on adjacent properties.

7.0 PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS
Old Town Victorville has an established roadway network accommodating multiple modes of transportation. The streets are designed on a grid system and the blocks are small enough to provide several different routes for navigating by automobile, bicycle, or on foot.

While these attributes are very positive, there are additional improvements that need to be made in order to expand the grid throughout the entire Old Town area and enhance pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicular facilities and connectivity within the Old Town area. This chapter provides strategies and recommended improvements for Old Town Victorville to help implement a multimodal transportation network in support of Old Town as a destination location. This chapter also identifies streetscape furnishing and public signage.

This chapter is organized into the following sections:

7.1 Vehicular Network

7.2 Bicycle and Pedestrian Network

7.3 Transit System

7.4 Parking

7.5 Streetscape

7.6 Wayfinding System

7.1 Vehicular Network

7.1.1 Roadway Network
The Old Town roadway network consists of a grid network oriented around two intersecting corridors: D Street and 7th Street. For the purposes of this Specific Plan, D Street and parallel roadways are considered east-west, while 7th Street and parallel roadways are considered north-south. All streets within Old Town are owned and operated by the City of Victorville except for D Street (Hwy 18) which is a State highway owned and operated by Caltrans.

Regional access to the project site is provided from Interstate 15 (I-15), Historic US Route 66 (US-66), and State Route 18 (SR-18). Local access is provided from D Street, 7th Street, 6th Street, Hesperia Road, Stoddard wells Road and Mojave Drive. Figure 7.1 shows the existing roadway network.

Regional Access Roads
I-15 begins in San Diego, extends north through Escondido, Corona, and Victorville, continues to Las Vegas and Salt Lake City, and terminates in Montana at the Canadian border. Near the study area, I-15 is a six-lane freeway with full interchanges at E Street, D Street, and Mojave Drive.

US-66 (7th Street), also known as historic Route 66, begins in Chicago and continues through St. Louis, Oklahoma City, and Albuquerque until its termination near downtown Los Angeles. US-66 travels roughly along I-40 from Oklahoma City.

Within the study area, it is a four-lane arterial street.

SR-18 (D Street) begins at SR-210 in the City of San Bernardino, extends north through Big Bear and Lucerne Valley, and follows Palmdale Road to Palmdale. SR-18 is a four-lane arterial.

Local Access Roads
6th Street, contained entirely in the study area, is a two-lane north/south arterial roadway that begins at Mojave Drive and terminates at E Street. 6th Street runs parallel to 7th Street, offering an alternative route due to its virtually exclusive right-of-way. Within the study area, 6th Street also provides an at-grade crossing of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF)/Amtrak railroad tracks.

Hesperia Road is a north/south arterial roadway that begins at D Street and terminates within the City of Hesperia at Lime Street. Within the study area, Hesperia Road is a two-lane roadway with a center turning lane.

Mojave Drive is an east/west arterial roadway that begins 20 miles west of the study area and terminates at the intersection of Victor Street within the study area.

Mojave Drive is a four-lane arterial street and serves an important link to the I-15, with an interchange located one mile west of 7th Street.

7.1.2 Planned Circulation Network Improvements
As of this Specific Plan, an interchange improvement project is currently under way with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) at the I-15 and D Street (SR-18) interchange. This project is planned to be completed by 2025, and is expected to improve access to the Old Town area from the freeway, with both ramp and roadway improvements.

Separately, an upcoming improvement project south of the study area aims to improve regional traffic flows by extending Green Tree Boulevard eastward to provide an additional connection between Victorville, Hesperia, and Apple Valley, offering an alternative route between D Street and Bear Valley Road. This project is planned in phases to be completed in the near future.

7.1.3 Proposed Circulation Network Improvements
One key strategy of the Specific Plan is to enhance 7th Street as a destination area for the Old Town commercial core. This strategy hinges upon re-introduction of on- street parking on 7th Street as well as enhancing access and mobility throughout Old Town on its versatile grid network. Besides the 7th Street corridor, other notable Old Town destinations include the Victor Valley Transportation Center, Victor Valley Global Medical Center, and the Historic Route 66 Museum.

To this effect, a “road diet” is planned for 7th Street within the study area. This road diet would reduce the number of travel lanes from two per direction to one per direction, with on-street parallel parking, pedestrian bulb-outs at intersections, and a center striped median lane that opens up to provide left-turn pockets at intersections. It should be noted that the left-turn pockets provided at intersections is crucial to the operations of the reduced traffic lanes, allowing the on-street parallel parking to remain in place for the long term.

Figure 7.2 presents the revised 7th Street cross section as described.

D Street at 4th Street
The D Street and 4th Street signalized intersection provides direct access into and out of the Victor Valley Transportation Center. To improve the traffic system and reduce delays for motorists, the east curb of 4th Street should be widened to provide two approach lanes: one shared left-through lane and one dedicated right- turn lane. This improvement also improves access to the western neighborhoods Old Town so that residents in the area can access D Street without using 7th Street.

Note that this project also provides an opportunity to improve pedestrian access to the transportation center by completing the missing sections of sidewalks along both sides of 4th Street between D Street and C Street.

D Street at 6th Street and D Street at 7th Street
As commercial and residential development grows in both Victorville and Apple Valley, traffic along D Street is expected to intensify. Although 7th Street is the primary north/south arterial serving Old Town, it does not provide direct access over the railroad tracks to the residential and recreational areas north of the tracks on E Street, but rather terminates at D Street, forming a “T” intersection. Access across the tracks is only provided by a single at-grade track crossing at 6th Street, with no other railroad crossings provided in the area.

As Old Town grows, the neighborhood and recreational areas served by E Street would become more desirable, leading to increased revitalization and development north of the railroad tracks as well as more traffic and pedestrians crossing the tracks. To improve connectivity across the tracks, the railroad crossing should be relocated from its current location to a new at-grade crossing on 7th Street.

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-5

Figure 7.2
7th Street Road Diet Cross Section

Relocating the railroad crossing to 7th Street would negate future need for a new traffic signal at 6th Street and provide for an expansion of the Victor Valley Transportation Center to include the Amtrak passenger platform currently located between 6th Street and 7th Street. Relocation of the track crossing could also benefit BNSF Railway by extending the railcar storage area. In order to accommodate the new crossing, E Street should be extended to connect with an extended 7th Street. The relocation would also eliminate 6th Street between D Street and E Street, creating a “T” intersection at D Street and 6th Street that would remain stop-controlled for 6th Street. The relocation of the railroad crossing would also accommodate higher traffic volumes on both D Street and 7th Street.

D Street at Hesperia Road
A traffic analysis performed by Albert Grover and Associates revealed that commuters use Hesperia Road as an alternate to 7th Street to access both the I-15 freeway and Apple Valley via D Street. In order to reduce traffic delays at the intersection and improve Hesperia Road as an alternate to 7th Street, the east curb of Hesperia Road should be widened to provide three approach lanes: one left-turn lane and two right-turn lanes with arrows. This improvement is expected to not only relieve traffic congestion at the intersection, but improve future traffic flow on both Hesperia Road and 7th Street.

Furthermore, the redevelopment of the vacant lot on the southwest corner of this intersection should be conditioned to provide a right-turn pocket lane in order to separate turning vehicles from slowing down or otherwise impacting the main eastbound traffic flows on D Street.

D Street at 11th Street
This intersection is located immediately west of a large curve in D Street as it crosses the Mojave River. As 11th Street provides access to the Victor Valley Medical Center and Victor Valley Memorial Park, facilitating direct access to D Street for hospital and memorial park staff, patients, and visitors would improve traffic conditions not only on 11th Street, but also for Hesperia Road, the main alternative route. Therefore, a traffic signal should be installed at this location and coordinated with the existing traffic signals on D Street.

Along with the new traffic signal installation, the northbound 11th Street approach should be restriped to provide two traffic lanes, separating left-turn traffic from right-turn traffic, reducing delays.

D Street / CA-18 at Stoddard Wells Road
Stoddard Wells Road provides an alternative northbound route toward Barstow, with access to the I-15 freeway. Per this Specific Plan, future residential development is anticipated along Stoddard Wells Road. To improve efficiency, reduce delays, and increase safety, the left-turn pockets on D Street and Stoddard Wells Road should be extended and a new dedicated right-turn lane be striped on the westbound D Street approach. Right-turn arrows should also be provided for westbound D Street and southbound Stoddard Wells Road.
7th Street at Forrest Avenue
Forrest Avenue forms the southern boundary of the Old Town grid network and provides primary access to the old University Preparatory School site. To relieve traffic demand along the 7th Street commercial corridor and improve access to the school site, the northbound 7th Street approach should be widened to provide for a dedicated northbound right-turn lane along with an accompanying right-turn arrow.

Hesperia Road at Forrest Avenue
To facilitate access to the old University Preparatory School site and improve connectivity between 7th Street and Hesperia Road via Forrest Avenue, a new traffic signal should be installed at this intersection. The eastbound Forrest Avenue approach should also be widened to provide two approach lanes: one left-turn lane and one right-turn lane.
7th Street at Mojave Drive
A de facto “gateway” intersection for the southern approach into Old Town Victorville, this intersection currently operates as a three-way traffic signal where the eastbound and westbound directions on Mojave Drive do not operate

concurrently. With the anticipated Old Town growth, the westbound Mojave Drive approach should be widened to provide for an additional right-turn lane with a dedicated right-turn arrow.

7.1.3 Intersection and Roadway Operations
The City’s General Plan identifies that level of service (LOS) D should be maintained at intersections, except in certain high activity areas designated by the Planning Commission, where LOS E is acceptable. With the proposed improvements, all intersections are expected to operate at LOS D or better.

Vehicular Network Policies
Policies that support the proposed vehicular network strategies are identified below.

Policy 7-2: Implement 7
th Street road diet after widening occurs on Hesperia
Road/9th Street to accommodate traffic.

Policy 7-3: Identify the Old Town area as a high activity area. Adopt LOS E as an acceptable level of service threshold for vehicles to minimize bicycle and pedestrian crossing distances.

Policy 7-4: Implement the identified roadway cross sections in Figures 7.3-7.5. This will enhance the walking environment Old Town and will serve all users of the roadway system.

7.2 Pedestrian and Bicycle Network
The overall goal for non-motorized transportation is to have a complete network for bicyclists and pedestrians. Improvements will be guided by the vision that bicyclists and pedestrians can easily and safely navigate Old Town. This can be accomplished by focusing on both enhancing and expanding bicycle and pedestrian facilities and designing appropriate crossings for pedestrians and bicycles.

7.2.1 Sidewalks
Pedestrian facilities are provided throughout the majority of the Specific Plan area.

Sidewalks, crosswalks, and pedestrian-actuated traffic signals create a pedestrian- friendly environment, particularly through the 7
th Street and 6th Street corridor.

Implementation of the roadway cross sections should improve the environment by providing safe, shaded walking areas in the Old Town core.

7.2.2 Bicycle Network
The City’s Non-Motorized Transportation Plan (Bike Plan) was completed in 2010. It identifies needed bicycle facilities in the area, including connectivity to the rest of

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-8

Victorville and the Region. It is recommended that bicycle travel in and through the Old Town core be encouraged through implementation of the City’s Non-Motorized Transportation Plan.

Additionally, safe and attractive bicycle parking facilities will be provided as part of both the Bicycle Master Plan and Specific Plan.

Traffic Calming Measures
Traffic calming measures are techniques that are used to better manage traffic through sensitive areas. These techniques are typically focused either on reducing traffic volume on roadways (roadway closures, half closures, etc.) or on reducing travel speed through the corridor (chicanes, bulbouts, speed humps, traffic circles, etc.).

Given the connectivity of the grid system in the Old Town area, it is recommended that this connectivity be maintained and that traffic calming measures focus on managing traffic speeds through the core area.

Pedestrian & Bicycle Network Policies
Policies that support the proposed pedestrian and bicycle network strategies are identified below.

Policy 7-5: Update the Old Town Specific Plan to incorporate the Non-Motorized Transportation Plan.

Policy 7-6: Promote bicycle and pedestrian activity in the Old Town area by providing marked and dedicated facilities and encouraging travel along roadways with lower traffic volumes. Additionally, provide safe, attractive, and secure bicycle parking facilities within the Old Town core to promote this travel choice.

Policy 7-7: Calm traffic through the Old Town core by implementing curb extension (bulbouts), pedestrian enhancements, and other traffic calming measures as appropriate.

7.3 Transit System
The Specific Plan focuses on connections to existing transit opportunities, including providing better connectivity to the train station on D Street through improved bicycle and pedestrian facilities. Additionally, the Specific Plan enhances existing and future transit in the study area by providing for bus turnouts and potential shuttle stops throughout the Old Town core.

7.3.1 Old Town Transit Network
The Amtrak Southwest Chief route runs through Old Town Victorville, with a stop at the Victor Valley Transportation Center, located at the intersection of 6th and D Streets. An at-grade railroad crossing for these railroad tracks—owned by Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway—is along 6th Street between D Street and E Street.

The City of Victorville is served by the Victor Valley Transit Authority, which operates various local and regional passenger bus lines, including the following routes within the study area:

Route 15 (yellow) provides access to Barstow to the north via CA-18 and Stoddard Wells Road as well as San Bernardino to the south via D Street and Hesperia Road.

Service to Barstow operates four round-trips daily, while service to San Bernardino operates throughout the day every two hours on weekdays and every three hours on Saturdays.

Route 22 (orange) provides access to Silver Lakes and Helendale to the north and northwest via D Street / CA-18, B Street, 7th Street, 4th Street, and Stoddard Wells Road. Service operates approximately every two hours throughout the day, seven days a week.

Route 41 (purple) provides access to Apple Valley to the east via D Street, 7th Street, and 4th Street. Service operates every half-hour on weekdays and every hour in the evenings and weekends.

Route 51 (green), the Victorville Circulator, provides access to the rest of the City of Victorville via B Street and 11th Street. Service operates approximately every hour throughout the day, seven days a week.

The NTC Commuter (red) provides access specifically for commuters to and from the Fort Irwin National Training Center, travelling along D Street between the I-15

freeway and the Victor Valley Transportation Center during the weekday commute hours only.

7.3.2 Transit System Policies
Policies that support the proposed transit system strategies are identified below.

Policy 7-8: As development applications and improvements are contemplated throughout the Specific Plan area, configure roadways and buildings to support transit by providing appropriate curb-returns and bus turnouts in the study area.

Consider potential shuttle opportunities, as funding is available, to connect the Old Town core to major employment centers in the area.

7.4 Parking
This section describes expected parking needs and parking strategies for the buildout of the Specific Plan. The Specific Plan aims to provide sufficient and convenient parking for all uses within Old Town without sacrificing accessibility for bicyclists and pedestrians.

7.4.1 Projected Future Parking Supply and Demand
Parking generated by the proposed project will result in a significant increase for parking in the Old Town area.

According to the Urban Land Institute’s Shared Parking assessment and determined that the Old Town area will have a peak parking demand, at buildout, of approximately 14,000 parked vehicles. The current on- and off-street public supply is estimated at 2,100 spaces, with some additional on-street parking provided with implementation of the Specific Plan.

Therefore, the remaining demand will need to be served either through public parking facilities (such as parking structures) or provided through private development in private parking lots. Some of the strategies for providing sufficient parking are summarized below.

7.4.2 Parking Strategy for Old Town
The strategies explained in this section are intended to ensure sufficient parking is provided for all Old Town land uses. Recommendations are provided for both on- and off-street public parking.

On-Street Parking
On-street parking is usually the most convenient for shoppers, as it provides direct access to their destinations. As mentioned previously, Old Town has approximately 2,000 on-street parking spaces. The Specific Plan proposes to increase the number

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-11

of on-street parking spaces by approximately 500 parking spaces with the recommended cross sections.

Off-Street Parking
Public off-street parking is limited in the study area to only two facilities. Therefore, private parking lots service most of the parking demand in the study area.

Utilizing private development to serve parking demand typically limits a jurisdiction’s ability to promote shared parking techniques between multiple users in a study area and usually leads to over-parked facilities (i.e., many parking spaces remain empty at any point of the day). Over-parking promotes use of the vehicle for travel between uses, limits the development area of a project, and limits the walkability of the area.

The City should consider strategies that gradually convert private parking facilities into public facilities, or combine parking facilities such that they can be used by multiple tenants.

Parking Monitoring Process
As future development occurs within Old Town Victorville, it is envisioned that the City would apply a set of comprehensive strategies designed to both increase available parking supply and moderate parking demand. Key issues related to these strategies are the order in which they are applied and the timing of when the strategies are needed. It is recommended that the strategies outlined below be implemented in conjunction with regular monitoring of parking occupancy. This monitoring would involve the collection of occupancy counts for all on- and off- street facilities. Additionally, this monitoring would note if any of the following occurred:
• If new parking facilities were constructed and if so, how many spaces were added?
• Were any parking facilities removed and if so, how many spaces were lost? Using the data on any changes in parking supply and demand, the monitoring report would estimate how many spaces are currently available. Based on the results of this monitoring, the City would be able to determine if additional parking is needed based on the following process.

The City would first note the parking occupancy within the Old Town. It is recommended that no additional parking be supplied until parking occupancy exceeds 75 percent. This process is envisioned to be iterative as detailed below.

A key consideration in the parking monitoring process will be to account for both public and private parking facilities. It is recommended that the City count both

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-12

public and private areas but maintain separate tabulations to determine if there are disparities in the parking availability between the public and private lots. It is also recommended that the occupancy thresholds consider both public and private parking together unless there is a significant disparity between the two. The City would also have the option to apply the occupancy threshold either to just the public parking or to the private parking separately.

Parking Measures
Suggested parking measures are provided in the likely order they could be implemented.

Provide Additional On-Street Parking
A comprehensive restriping program by the City would ensure that all on-street spaces are striped and marked appropriately. Currently, some of the parallel parking spaces are not marked or the markings have faded. Restriping these spaces will limit instances in which vehicles are parked across multiple spaces.

On-Street Parking Standards
New public parking in Old Town Victorville shall comply with the following standards:

General
• On-street parking shall be allowed on all roadways with curb-to-curb widths of 28 feet or greater, except Hesperia Road/9th Street, D Street, Forrest Avenue, and Verde Street where through trips are utilizing the roadway system. • In general, on-street parking shall not have time restrictions, but the City shall enact restrictions in peak demand locations as deemed necessary.

Parallel Parking
• All on-street parallel parking stalls shall be 20 feet in length and 8-10 feet in width.
• Parking stalls shall be defined in accordance with the engineering standards of the City.
• No stall shall be closer than 20 feet from the nearest cross street. • Parking shall be a minimum of 10 feet from the point a driveway crosses the back edge of the sidewalk and no closer than 5 feet from the ending of driveway radius at the curb.

Angled Parking
• Angled parking shall be designed according to dimensions provided in the dimensions of parking prepared by the Urban Land Institute. For a 45-degree angled parking space, the vehicle projection (curb to street) shall be 17 feet 8

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-13

inches, the travel lane adjacent to angled parking shall be a minimum of 12 feet, 8 inches, and the width of the space shall be 12 feet. • Angled parking stalls shall be marked in accordance with the engineering standards of the City.

Shared/Joint Use Parking
Shared parking is a tool through which adjacent property owners share their parking lots and reduce the number of parking spaces that each would provide on their individual properties. This method of providing parking spaces could be feasible in Old Town Victorville given the mix of uses in certain areas that allow people to park in one spot and then walk from one destination to another. As Old Town continues to develop, additional opportunities for privately shared parking may arise and will be subject to the standards for shared parking.

The City should also consider leasing parking spaces for public use when there is a surplus of privately owned parking in Old Town. For example, if an existing business has a 100-space lot located near a high-demand area and 50 percent of the lot is regularly underutilized, the City may enter into a contract with the business to lease the spaces for public use. This approach will allow the City to provide additional parking supply without constructing new parking facilities. The availability of shared parking opportunities should be identified during the parking monitoring process since this tabulation will note both public and private spaces that are occupied and other spaces available for use.

Public Parking Lots and Structures
As Old Town revitalization and plan area buildout progresses, demand for public parking will increase. Based on geographic location, ownership trends, and vacancy, the proposed parking facilities for off-street surface lots or future structures are shown in Figure 7.6. In the short term (0–3 years), the City should look to secure property for future public parking facilities. As revitalization progresses, in the short to mid term (0–6 years), surface lots should be established as needed. As the Old Town Specific Plan vision is realized, surface lots that were previously established should be considered as possible structures (as funding and site conditions permit).

Project area economic conditions, density, and trip generation are the key elements in determining whether a parking structure is viable.

Parking structures have the advantage of providing large amounts of parking on a relatively small footprint, thereby encouraging a denser, more walkable environment. Structures can be combined with other uses, such as ground-floor retail, to enhance building aesthetics, maintain pedestrian activity in the vicinity of the structure, and avoid “dead zones” without any attractions to pedestrians.

Parking structures are expensive, and significant investment must occur in Old Town Victorville to make them a feasible alternative. If structures are developed,

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-14

densities could increase on properties that would otherwise serve surface parking uses. If considered, parking structures could be considered at the following locations:
• East of A Street, north of 7
th Street
• East of A Street, South of 7th Street
• East of Verde Street
Implementation of public parking structures could allow the City to consider in-lieu fees (instead of private on-site private parking) to promote development in the Old Town core and increase densities in the core area. Additionally, as activity in the core area increases, parking structures could be utilized to facilitate long-term (no parking restriction) parking, while on-street parking would serve much shorter time spans.

Parking Policies
Policies that support the proposed parking strategies are identified below.

Policy 7-9: Establish a parking district for Old Town. This parking district would allow the Specific Plan area to plan, construct, and implement parking facilities for the area as a whole. Additionally, the parking district would be responsible for monitoring the parking facilities.

Policy 7-10: Implement a Parking Management Plan (PMP) that would include the following components once parking occupancy in the Old Town core reaches 70 percent:
• Institute market-rate pricing
• Install computerized “pay by space” parking meters
• Assess time restrictions and modify as necessary
• Keep Old Town parking revenue in Old Town (e.g., reinvest into the Specific Plan area)
• Consider parking in lieu fees to satisfy minimum off-street parking requirements
• Locate shared parking facilities throughout Old Town to minimize the amount of parking dedicated to parking
Policy 7-11: Develop and adopt design guidelines for parking facilities that reinforce Old Town’s identity.

Policy 7-12: Require parking facilities to include elements that emphasize pedestrian and bicycle modes of travel.

7.5 Streetscape

7.5.1 Furnishings
In order to transform the public streetscape from mere transportation facility to vibrant public space, it is important to add amenities that allow people to stop and linger, that provide services and information, and that engage the senses. Street furnishings create a comfortable, attractive, and pleasant streetscape environment for pedestrians. A coordinated palette of furnishings animates the public realm and helps establish the character and identity of an area. Pedestrian furniture can be an effective traffic calming strategy, as the presence of pedestrian furnishings along the sidewalk provides visual cues to help drivers recognize that they are entering a pedestrian area, and they may respond by reducing vehicle speeds.

The Old Town Specific Plan provides an opportunity to update and improve the Old Town streetscape and amenities. This Specific Plan establishes a recommended streetscape palette to create a strong identity and uniformity for Old Town.

Figures 7.7 and 7.8 illustrate the selected street furnishing palette for Old Town Victorville.

7.5.2 Streetscape Furnishing Standards
A coordinated palette of street furniture and lighting throughout Old Town will contribute to a distinct sense of place and heightened awareness of the area, attracting visitors and residents. Pedestrian furnishings and amenities must be located between the travel zone of the sidewalk and the curb to ensure a clear path of travel for pedestrians. For direction on placement of streetscaping elements, please refer to section 7.5.3 Streetscape Improvements below.

The following characteristics should be considered when selecting street furnishings for the Old Town area:
• Usability
• Comfort
• Safety
• Universal access
• Ease of maintenance
• Uniformity and/or compatibility in design style, color, and material • Durability
• Reparability
• Nontoxic
• Regionally sourced
• Recycled content
• Ability to be recycled or reused
• Anti-Vandalism
• Anti-Graffiti

7.5.3 Landscaping & Street Trees
Landscaping enhances the quality and character of Old Town by making streetscapes more beautiful and comfortable. Plants can be used to create distinctive identity and seasonal interest. Planting should be located and maintained so as to not impair visibility of pedestrians, bicyclists, and drivers.

Median and sidewalk planting strip landscaping will be focused on use of native plants, ease of maintenance, climate appropriateness, and a strong unified theme.

Plants will be durable, lower-water-use varieties that are adaptable to the local climate. The City has developed a recommended planting list of native and water- conserving trees, perennials, grasses, and shrubs that should be used for plant selection in the Old Town area. Street trees are an important component of the

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 7-24

environment. They enhance aesthetic quality and increase pedestrian comfort.

They unify street scenes, strengthen pedestrian scale, buffer pedestrian walkways from the street, soften hardscapes, provide shade and visual enclosure, and contribute to the Old Town character. Street trees also reduce the urban heat island effect, cooling both the outdoor urban environment and the interiors of buildings fronting the street.

Figure 7.9 provides guidance for developing a uniform theme for the planting of the trees, shrubs, and ground covers along Old Town streets and public rights-of way.

7.5.5 Old Town Design Concepts
In addition to the recommended street configuration, furnishings, and landscaping improvements illustrated in this chapter, streetscape improvements have been developed as concepts that may be applied to the Old Town street network. The concepts were developed by Staff and represent ideas that have been demonstrated in other communities. They may allow for Old Town drop-offs and temporary street closures or “shared spaces” by motorists and pedestrians. Figure

7.14 illustrates Old Town design concepts that can be applied as shared (or convertible) space within a block, mid-block, or at an intersection. The concepts explore different approaches to creating passenger drop-off facilities for high volume uses, pedestrian malls or paseos that can be used to create ambiance, or spaces for public events such as street fairs. These concepts will be most successfully applied after project area revitalization is well under way, when economic health has stabilized, and as area activity and parking demand result in the long-term revitalization of the Specific Plan area.

7.6 Wayfinding System
The following concepts illustrate a new wayfinding system for Old Town Victorville.

Wayfinding comprises signs, maps, kiosks, arches, and other graphic or architectural methods to convey location and directions to travelers. This series of directional and non-directional monuments and associated signage will announce that visitors and residents have entered a special place, separate and unique from the rest of the city. As Old Town evolves, it is important to consider how visitors are directed to their destinations, whether they arrive on foot or by car, and how to make sure that their experience in Old Town is a positive one. The elements in the recommended wayfinding system will provide a strong identity for Old Town.

Figures 7.15 through 7.19 illustrate elements in the Old Town Victorville wayfinding system, while Figure 7.20 demonstrates how signage can be located in the project area to help announce arrival and aid the user in navigating the Old Town area.

7.6.1 Wayfinding Objectives
The Old Town wayfinding system should:
• Provide directional and information signs that are attractive, clear, and consistent in theme, location, and design.
• Announce arrival into Old Town and build the sense that Old Town is a unified place.
• Identify key destinations and facilities, such as public parking, parks, shopping, and cultural and civic destinations.
• Be collocated with other streetscape furniture, such as streetlights and transit shelters, where possible, to enhance visibility and reduce visual clutter in the public realm.
• Promote walking, bicycling, and use of mass transit.

7.6.2 Public Signage Types
The wayfinding system includes the following types of public signage:

Sign Type Use and Standards Image
Major
Identification Sign
(Gateways)
Major identification signs will be used as gateway features to mark a sense of arrival and a transition into Old Town. These visual gateway features are civic in emphasis and serve to identify and promote the distinct identity and overall design theme of the Specific Plan area.

Entrance features may consist of a combination of other design treatments, such as landscaping, special lighting, paving, and/or public art, that serve as identifiable community landmarks.

See Figure 7.16 for sign specifications.

Directional Sign
(Old Town)
Directions signs will be used to direct people into Old Town from adjacent neighborhoods and districts.

See Figure 7.17 for sign specifications.

Intermediate
Identification Sign
(Route 66 Marker)
Intermediate identification signs should be used to demarcate historic Route 66 along 7th Street and D Street.

See Figure 7.18 for sign specifications.

Parking

Sign Type Use and Standards Image
Minor Directional
Sign
Minor directional signs should be used to denote locations of key shopping areas, civic buildings, and tourist attractions. Signs should be lighted, landscaped, and placed permanently at roadsides or within medians at key locations throughout the Specific Plan area.

Pedestrian Signs,
Maps, and Kiosks
Pedestrian signs, maps, and kiosks should be placed throughout Old Town to direct visitors to local businesses, community amenities, and parking areas. Pedestrian-oriented signs and maps should be located at key pedestrian activity nodes in Old Town, such as transit stops, plazas, shopping areas, and paseos.

Alley/Paseo
Gateway
Alley/paseo gateway features provide a sense of arrival and transition to unique pedestrian places within Old Town. Entrance features may consist of a combination of plant materials, hardscape elements (such as archways, trellises, and special paving), and signage.

Banners
Banners or flags for use on area streetlight poles should be included in the signage program. Banners may be changed periodically to provide advertisement for special events and promotions in Old Town.

Entry Archway

Currently an Entryway Arch exists at the entrance to the Old Town Core on Seventh Street just north of ‘D’ Street. During the third Community Workshop – Circulation, the Community had the opportunity to choose a new design for this archway, to be renovated in the short term.

This chapter is organized into the following sections:

8.1 Water Supply

8.2 Sewer/Wastewater

8.3 Storm Drainage

8.4 Solid Waste Collection, Disposal, and Recycling

8.5 Energy
This chapter will list each service operating in the Specific Plan Area, provide an assessment of how these services will meet the anticipated demand, and identify those facilities that need to be replaced, upgraded, and/or expanded. The essential public facilities covered in this chapter include:

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 8-2

8.1 Water Supply
Existing Conditions
Water service in the Specific Plan area is provided by the Victorville Water District.

The District is a public agency which was formed in 2007 by the consolidation of the Baldy Mesa Water District and the Victor Valley Water District. The water source is the Alto sub-basin of the Mojave River Groundwater Basin, a groundwater aquifer located in the High Desert. To ensure satisfactory water quality, the District chlorinates the water before distributing it into the sytem and treats the water for arsenic contamination at four plants interspersed throughout the system.

Water is distributed within the Old Town and Midtown areas through water main lines ranging in diameter from 5 to 12 inches. The line’s size is determined by the use being served and the fire protection flow rate required for the use. The Specific Plan area’s water and fire service is generally sufficient to meet the needs of the existing uses, but some of Old Town’s fire hydrants fall below the current pressure and spacing standards.

Victorville Water District is a proponent of using recycled water for a variety of purposes. These uses include agricultural irrigation, landscape irrigation, impoundments for landscape, recreational and/or wildlife uses, wetland and wildlife enhancement, industrial processes, construction activities, and groundwater recharge. To encourage the use of recycled water, the District allows users to purchase recycled water to offset the costs of treating wastewater.

Victorville Water District is actively involved in conserving its existing groundwater supply and ensuring that the proper accommodations are made to support the City’s long-term growth objectives. The District’s approaches include water conservation, water reuse, installation of additional wells and pumping stations, and importing water from the State Water Project via the California Aqueduct. The District’s Water Conservation Department provides a number of services to help reduce water consumption. Services include water audits, residential plumbing retrofits, using a rate structure that encourages conservation, community outreach programs and events, developer incentives, retaining water conservation specialists, a wastewater prohibition ordinance, a cash-for-grass program, encouraging water-smart landscaping, and offering a low-water-use appliance rebate.

Buildout Conditions
Commercial developments proposed for sites that are currently occupied by residential uses or that are underutilized will require fire mitigation measures such as interior fire sprinklers and/or the replacement of the existing water mains with pipes measuring at least 8 inches in diameter. In addition, all development subject

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | INFRASTRUCTURE, PUBLIC UTILITIES, AND FACILITIES

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 8-3

to review by the City will be reviewed by the Victorville Water District. When an upgrade to the Specific Plan area’s water system is required to accommodate such development, the developer may be responsible for a portion or all of the costs.

8.2 Sewer/Wastewater
Existing Conditions
Sewer service in the Specific Plan area is provided by the Victor Valley Wastewater Reclamation Authority, a regional wastewater treatment agency operated jointly by the City of Victorville and three other members. Services provided by the agency include the operation, maintenance, repair, and cleaning of sewer collection lines to ensure that they do not exceed their designed capacity and to prevent stoppages and backups.

The Specific Plan area’s sewer system was originally developed approximately 65 years ago. Portions of main sewer lines extending through the Old Town area, especially those along C and D streets, are now deficient. This condition is attributed to increased development in other areas of the city overloading the sytem. However, in December of 2015, after 18 months of work VVWRA completed the installation of 4,000 feet of a new sewer pipeline along ‘C’ and ‘D’ Street in Old Town as part of the Upper Narrows Pipieline Project. The secondary lines that only serve the Specific Plan area are able to accommodate the existing uses.

Buildout Conditions
Deficiencies in the sewer lines along C and D streets can be eliminated by constructing an 18-inch-diameter relief sewer line. This line would increase the system’s carrying capacity and intercept additional lateral lines, reducing the burden placed on the existing lines.

New developments that require sewer service are subject to review by City engineering staff. If a development will require improvements to the sewer system, the improvements may be imposed upon the developer.

8.3 Storm Drainage
Existing Conditions
The Specific Plan area’s storm drainage system is maintained by the City’s Department of Public Works. The system was originally installed more than 40 years ago. It includes a major channel to accommodate the Oro Grande Wash and a box culvert to carry flows collected from the Old Town streets. This system is sufficient to serve the Specific Plan area’s existing uses.

OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | INFRASTRUCTURE, PUBLIC UTILITIES, AND FACILITIES

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 8-4

Buildout Conditions
No improvements to the storm drainage system are proposed within the Old Town area; however, the City plans to construct a new detention basin south of the Specific Plan area. The City has made improvements to the Oro Grande Wash’s flow rate, increasing it to a level that cannot be sufficiently captured and carried by Old Town’s existing box culvert. To comply with the San Bernardino County Flood Control District facilities plan, the detention basin must be in place by the time the flow rate approaches capacity. In addition, the City’s Engineering Department may review proposed projects to determine if stormwater facilities need to be upgraded to accommodate the development.

8.4 Solid Waste Collection, Disposal, and
Recycling
Existing Conditions
Burrtec Waste provides solid waste collection, disposal, and recycling services for the Specific Plan area. The company provides curbside pick-up service with a 95- gallon container for refuse and a 60-gallon container for recyclables. The company also accepts household hazardous waste items at a collection center. In July 2018, the company began offerring green waste collection services in Victorville for commercial and multi-family devlopments (4 or more units) to comply with AB1826.

Nonhazardous solid and liquid waste generated in the Old Town and Midtown areas is deposited in the Victorville Landfill, a facility operated by the County of San Bernardino Public Works Department, Solid Waste Management Division. Recently the landfill was expanded and it has the capacity to support Old Town’s growth.

Recyclables are taken to the Victor Valley Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). Co- owned by the City of Victorville and the Town of Apple Valley and operating since 1995, MRF helps the City meet the Assemby Bill (AB) 939 requirement that waste sent to a landfill be reduced by 50 percent beginning in the year 2000. The facility also accepts materials from adjoining communities and provides drop-off and recycling buy-back services for residents and businesses.

Buildout Conditions
If new development proposed within the Specific Plan area causes an increased demand on the solid waste collection system, the developer will have to coordinate with the City and service providers to meet the increased demand. However, as mentioned the current landfill has the capacity to support buildout conditions.

8.5 Energy

8.5.1 Natural Gas
Existing Conditions
The Southwest Gas Corporation provides natural gas service in the Specific Plan area. Service is supplied by two 4-inch high-pressure lines originating at taps near the intersection of Gasline and Air Base roads. The primary line feeds into a regulator station at the intersection of 6th and E streets, and the secondary line feeds into a regulator station at the intersection of Mojave and Amargosa and enters the Old Town and Midtown areas along 7th Street. Two companies distribute gas in the Specific Plan area. A majority of the gas is purchased from the Southern California Gas Company, the less expensive seller. Pacific Gas and Electric gas is also sold in the Specific Plan area, especially during peak periods.

Old Town’s natural gas pipeline network was originally installed in 1931. Given the system’s age, the network is constructed from metal pipes. Because metal pipes are prone to rust, the system is checked for integrity and the lines are tested for leaks on an annual basis. The Public Utilities Commission completes all repairs and replacements.

Buildout Conditions
The natural gas distribution systems and supply are generally sufficient to serve the kinds of future development envisioned in the Old Town and Midtown areas; however, certain uses may require upgraded distribution lines. New development and the expansion of existing structures are subject to comment from the Southwest Gas Corporation.

8.5.2 Electricity
Existing Conditions
The Southern California Edison Company provides electrical service to the Specific Plan area. Service originates from the Victorville Substation, which is located on the southeast corner of C Street and 6th Street. The Old Town and Midtown areas distribution grid is served by three 33 kilovolt circuits and four 4-16/2.4 kilovolt circuits.

Buildout Conditions
The existing electricty distribution grid will sufficiently serve new development that occurs in the Specific Plan area. However, all new developments and the expansion of existing developments that are subject to review by the City of Victorville are also subject to review by Southern California Edison. If a development requires new facilities and/or additions or modification to the distribution grid system, this

are funded by FTA grants:
• Urbanized Area Formula
Program
• Job Access and Reverse

Urbanized Area Formula
Program (FTA/SAFETEA-LU
program)

This program provides formula
funding to states for the purpose
of supporting public
transportation in areas with
populations of more than 50,000.

Funds may be used for planning,
engineering design and evaluation
of transit projects and other
technical transportation-related
studies, capital investments in bus
and bus-related activities, and
capital investments in new and
existing fixed guideway systems.

Job Access and Reverse
Commute (JARC) Program
(FTA/SAFETEA-LU program)

The Job Access and Reverse
Commute Program addresses the
unique transportation challenges
faced by welfare recipients and
low-income persons seeking to
obtain and maintain employment.

The JARC program funds
transportation projects designed
to help low-income individuals
with access to employment and
related activities where existing
transit is either unavailable,
inappropriate, or insufficient. The
JARC program funds capital,
planning, and operating expenses
for projects that transport low-
income individuals to and from
activities related to employment
and for reverse commute transit
services.

Flexible Funding for Highway
and Transit
Flexible funds are certain
legislatively specified funds that
may be used either for transit or
highway purposes. The idea of
flexible funds is that a local area
can choose to use certain federal
surface transportation funds
based on local planning priorities,
not on a restrictive definition of
program eligibility. Flexible funds
include Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) Surface
Transportation Program (STP)
funds and Congestion Mitigation
and Air Quality Improvement
When FHWA funds are transferred
to FTA, they can be used for a
variety of transit improvements
such as new fixed guideway
projects, bus purchases,
construction and rehabilitation of
rail stations, maintenance facility
construction and renovations,
alternatively fueled bus purchases,
bus transfer facilities, multimodal
transportation centers, and
advanced technology fare
collection systems.

Regional
Measure I Local Pass-Through
Funds
Measure I is the half-cent sales tax
collected throughout San
Bernardino County for
transportation improvements.

Measure I is the primary source of
revenue for transportation
improvements in the City of
Victorville. Local officials make
decisions about the allocation of
these funds.

In Victorville, 65 percent of the
funds are used for regional
highways and major streets, 30
percent goes toward local streets
and roads, and 5 percent is used
to offset Victor Valley Transit
Authority fares for elderly and
disabled passengers.

Local
City General Fund
This is the most accessible and
flexible funding source available to
local agencies. Local revenues are
collected in the City General Fund
from property tax, sales tax, and
transient occupancy tax and are
expended on projects and
programs as defined in the City’s
adopted budget. Projects and
programs that may be funded by
this source of money generally
include those items which cannot
be paid for by other funding
sources and which provide a direct
community-wide benefit for the
residences or businesses in the
city. However, since this funding
source is the City’s primary
operating capital and is highly
competitive, it should be looked at
as a secondary source to fund
most projects.

Infrastructure Financing
District (IFD)
The IFD legislation (California
Government Code Section 53395

similar to redevelopment, but an
IFD is much easier to create.

However, the district must
comprise essentially vacant

Impact Fees
Impact fees are direct charges
collected on a one-time basis as a
condition of an approval granted
by the local government. The
purpose of the fee must directly
relate to the need created by the
development. In addition, its
amount must be proportional to
the cost of improvement. While
most of the Specific Plan area is
built out, some of the planned
improvements could be necessary
because of the pressures either
from new development or from
recent growth in the surrounding
area.

Development Impact fees may
include traffic mitigation fees,
infrastructure improvement fees,
and connection fees.

Impact fees can be used to fund

In-Lieu Development
Dedication
In lieu of payment of all or a
portion of development fees,
developers may dedicate land to
the City of Victorville for other
purposes such as parks or
affordable housing. Whenever a
developer determines to dedicate
land in lieu of payment, a written
application must be made
describing the property to be
dedicated and the development to
receive credit for the development
fee. If the land is used for a park,
the Community Services Director
must confer with the
Development Director and the
Public Works Director and prepare
a report to the City Council
regarding the proposed
dedication. The value of the
property to be dedicated must be
determined in the same manner
as the then-current calculation of

N/A
Assessment Districts
Assessment districts are most
commonly established to finance
the construction of public capital
improvements in a localized area
and where authorized, to operate
and maintain costs of certain
public facilities. The City floats
bonds to pay for such
improvements, and the debt is
paid by assessing property owners
who will be served by the
improvements. Each parcel within
the assessment district is assessed
for a portion of the infrastructure
costs involved based on the
benefit each property receives
from the construction of the
public infrastructure. Examples of
assessment districts include
Landscape and Lighting Districts,
Parking Assessment Districts, and

Property and Business
Improvement District (PBID)
A property and business
improvement district is a newly
established benefit assessment
district that can be formed based
upon state legislation known as
Assembly Bill (AB) 3754. PBIDs are
geographically defined business
areas in which private property
owners band together to gain legal
standing and generate sufficient
revenue to realize common goals
for improving the service and
facilities of an area. All types of
businesses and some residential
zones can be included within this
district, including commercial,
professional offices, finance
institutions, and high-density
residential. The PBID can perform
a number of activities designed to
supplement existing City services,
such as marketing of district
businesses and activities,
promotion of public events, street
and sidewalk cleaning, graffiti
removal, promotion of tourism,
sanitation, and retail retention and
recruitment. Physical
improvements such as benches,
kiosks, pedestrian shelters, signs,
lighting, restrooms, trash
receptacles, planting area,
fountains, and plazas are often
also funded by a PBID.

Within areas of the Old Town, the
following activities would be
ideally suited for PBID funding:
• Marketing and Economic
Development activities
(including planning,
media/banner development,
special events organization,
and ongoing advertising)
• Landscape and streetscape

Development Fees
As a means of improving Old Town’s
economic attractiveness, the City could revise
its fee schedule to provide lower fees in the
Specific Plan area. In order to be consistent
with AB 1600 requirements, these fee
differentials would need to be defensible on
the basis that development in Old Town
creates less demand for new infrastructure
given the availability of existing infrastructure
capacity in Old Town.
• Evaluate the feasibility of adopting
different fees for the Old Town
compared with the rest of the city.

Whereas it conceptually makes
sense that impacts are lower (and
therefore fees should be lower) in
Old Town, this premise would need
to be tested as part of the formal
study process (as required by AB
1600).

If structured
properly (i.e.,
fees reflect
actual impacts
in different
parts of the
city), this
program would
have no net cost
to the City.

Temporary Use
Permit/Event Fees
If a use or event is determined to have a
positive economic, social, cultural or civic
benefit to Old Town then fees should either
be lowered or waived to promote such
activities. This will incentivize such events to
occur and reoccur in Old Town as well as
demonstrate the City’s willingness to assist in
bringing and retaining pedestrian generating
activities to Old Town.
• Waive all applicable temporary use
permit fees that are community
related events (open to the public)
that meet certain public benefit
criteria. These fees may include but
not limited to Development
temporary use permit fees, Fire
Department permit fees,
Engineering permit fees and

Revolving Loan
Fund Program
The City should develop specific program
guidelines for this proposed revolving loan
program. The purpose of the Revolving Loan
Fund is to ultimately aid in the revitalization
of Old Town by fostering growth of new
businesses and assisting expanding
businesses. Its objectives are to improve the
visual quality of commercial buildings and
mixed uses, increase the City’s tax base, and
provide needed services to local residents.

The program will also help preserve
historically architecturally significant
structures and address safety issues by
eliminating code deficiencies. The City should
commit approximately $1,000,000 to the
fund. The program will initially be CDBG–
funded, and borrowers are therefore subject
to prevailing wage requirements.

This loan must be used for nonresidential
projects only.
• During the first 2 years of the
program, earmark 25% of this fund
for projects in the Specific Plan
area.
• Focus on large, high-impact
projects (loans of $50,000 or
greater with a 50% matching
requirement).
• After the first 2 years, reevaluate

Parking Incentives
Promoting the Old Town area as a walkable
and transit-friendly area should reduce
automobile trips. In addition, there are a
number of underutilized opportunities for on-
street parking in Old Town. Utilizing this extra
capacity can enable the City to lower the
required parking ratios for new development,
thereby substantially reducing the costs of
development and giving Old Town an edge
relative to other planning areas where
parking requirements are higher.
• The Specific Plan provides for
reduced parking requirements.
• To ensure that the lowered
requirements do not result in a
long-term parking shortage, this
issue should be revisited in the next
3 to 5 years.

9.4 Plan Administration
This section of the implementation plan describes the authority of the Specific Plan and the administrative procedures required for amendments and/or modifications to the Plan.

A specific plan is a regulatory tool that local governments use to implement their general plan and to guide development in a localized area. While the general plan is the primary guide for growth and development in a community, a specific plan is able to focus on the unique characteristics of a specialized area by customizing the vision, land uses and development standards appropriate for the context of that area. The Old Town Specific Plan has been prepared pursuant to Section 65450 of the California Government Code.

The City of Victorville Planning Division is responsible for the administration, implementation, and enforcement of this Specific Plan. The Zoning Administrator is responsible for making the determination of whether an amendment to the Specific Plan text or maps is needed. Amendment procedures are as follows:

Specific Plan Amendment
Over time, various sections of the Specific Plan may need to be revised, as economic conditions or City needs dictate. The policies presented in the Specific Plan contain some degree of flexibility, but any Specific Plan amendments must be judged by relatively fixed criteria. California Government Code Section 65453 clearly states that a specific plan “may be amended as often as deemed necessary by the legislative body.” Amendments to this Plan may be initiated by a developer, any individual property owner, or the

CITY OF VICTORVILLE
OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018
PAGE 9-27

City, in accordance with any terms and conditions imposed during the original approval or in accordance with any terms and conditions pertaining to the City of Victorville Development Code. • Proposals to amend the Specific Plan must be accompanied by detailed information to document the change required. This information should include a revised Specific Plan text (or excerpt thereof) and revised Land Use Plan or map amendment, where relevant, depicting the amendment requested.
• Since the City has invested a significant amount of time and money in the preparation of the Specific Plan, any proposals to amend the Specific Plan must document the need for such changes. The City and/or applicant should indicate the economic, social, or technical issues that generate the need to amend the Specific Plan.
• The City and/or applicant must provide an analysis of the amendment’s impacts relative to the context. Depending on the nature of the amendment, supplemental environmental analysis may be necessary. The need for such additional analysis shall be determined by the City of Victorville in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (Section 15162 of CEQA).

The Zoning Administrator shall, within ten (10) days of any submittal of a request to amend this Plan, determine whether the amendment is significant or insignificant. If the amendment is determined to be significant, the application shall be reviewed and considered in the manner prescribed by the Zoning Ordinance. If the amendment is determined to be insignificant, the Zonining Administrator may approve or deny the application. Any decision of the Zoning Administrator may be appealed to the Planning Commission and/or City Council, provided said appeal is initiated within ten (10) working days of receipt by the applicant of written notice of the director’s decision.

Necessary Findings
The consideration of any proposed amendment to this Plan shall include determination of the following findings:

Changes have occurred in the community since the approval of the original Specific Plan which warrant approving the proposed amendment.

OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE SPECIFIC PLAN | IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

FINAL | NOVEMBER 2018

Lack of changes in the Old Town area (no growth, development, or use/reuse of existing structures) that may be attributed to the standards and requirements of the Old Town Specific Plan.

The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan for the City of Victorville.

The proposed amendment will result in a benefit to the area within the Specific Plan.

The proposed amendment will not result in any unmitigated impact to adjacent properties.

The proposed amendment will enable the delivery of services and public facilities to the population within the area of this Specific Plan.

The Zoning Administrator will review all of the above-submitted material and provide a staff report for presentation to the Planning Commission and City Council. The Zoning Administrator may also request further clarification of the above findings, if necessary. The staff report will analyze whether the proposed Specific Plan Amendment is consistent with the General Plan and whether the need to amend the Specific Plan can be supported by the conclusions of the supplemental studies.

Public Hearings
If the amendment is considered significant, both the Planning Commission and the City Council must hold public hearings on the Specific Plan amendment, in accordance with Section 65453 of the California Government Code.

Purchase of Airfield Signs from Standard Signs Inc.

Recommendation:

That the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority Board of Directors approve the purchase of Lumacurve Airfield Signs from Standard Signs Inc., in the amount not to exceed $21,921.17.

Fiscal Impact:

The award of this agreement will result in the expenditure of budgeted operations funds from Airport Account 4500125-52440 in the amount not to exceed $21,921.17. Budgeted infrastructure repair funds are sufficient to accommodate this expenditure. The budget is outlined below:

Current Budget
Balance
4500125-52440 Airport Infrastructure Repairs $169,390.54 Strategic Plan Goal:

Goal E. Invest in Infrastructure: This purchase invests in infrastructure by providing appropriate airfield directional signage.

Background:

The Southern California Logistics Airport (“SCLA”) has on its airfield approximately one hundred airfield guidance signs that provide visual cues to pilots and other airport users.

At the present time the airfield signage at the SCLA consists of a medley of different sign shapes and illumination intensity. Uniformity in signage enhances safety and improves efficiency, thus the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) issues guidance standards for signage and conducts regular inspections of airport signage. The FAA inspected the airfield signage at the SCLA in late 2023, and recommended replacement of multiple 3 8
4 7
signs that had faded or were demonstrating insufficient illumination. Staff set out to replace several signs each year as needed as part of a multi-year sign standardization effort to bring signage uniformity throughout the SCLA.

There are two airfield sign manufacturers in the United States that custom make signs that are similar but not compatible due to their irregularity of shape and size. After studying the signs offered by each vendor, staff selected the Lumacurve option manufactured by Standard Signs, Inc. (‘Standard”) as the signs that would be the best option for the SCLA. Lumacurve signs are designed with a convex shape to better withstand jet blast, whereas the other signs considered were a regular box shape, which does not withstand jet blast as well as the convex signs.

In November 2024, multiple large widebody aircraft utilized runway 3/21 for takeoff. The impressive amount of jet thrust necessary to propel these large aircraft into the sky contributed to several older box style airfield signs being damaged beyond repair. Staff requested and received a quote from Standard to replace the damaged signs with Lumacurve signs.

Discussion:

As part of the ongoing airfield sign standardization effort to replace all airfield signs with Lumacurve signs, in the current fiscal year, staff have already purchased and installed approximately $115,575 of Lumacurve signs from Standard in compliance with City Municipal Code 2.28.100. The current request to purchase Lumacurve signs to replace the damaged signs on runway 3/21 will cause the dollar amount spent with Standard in the current fiscal year to exceed the Executive Director’s authority of $125,000, as stated in City Municipal Code 2.28.060.

Therefore, staff requests and recommends that the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority Board of Directors approve the purchase of Lumacurve signs from Standard in the amount not to exceed $21,921.17.

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

Purchase of a 2024 Peterbilt Model 548 Dump Truck
Recommendation:

That the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“SCLAA”) Board of Directors approve the purchase of a 2024 Peterbilt Model 548 Dump Truck in the amount of $223,842.86.

Fiscal Impact:

This action will result in the expenditure of budgeted capital equipment funds from Airport Operations Fund 450 in the amount not to exceed $223,842.86. The budget for this equipment is as follows:

Fund Current Budget
4500125-55045-95137 Dump Truck $223,842.86
Strategic Plan Goal:

Goal E - Invest in Infrastructure. This equipment will allow Airport staff to efficiently transport material to, from, and throughout the Airport.

Background:

The Southern California Logistics Airport (“SCLA”) consists of over 2,000 acres of airfield areas and Off-airport properties. The airfield area consists of two commercial-length runways, nine taxiways, numerous buildings, aircraft parking lots, drainage channels, and vast open areas slated for future development. The SCLA requires consistent maintenance to manage erosion, remove weeds, conduct runway repairs, and undertake various construction projects.
8 8
7 The vast acreage of the SCLA property and the corresponding maintenance needed to operate the airport requires staff to frequently haul asphalt, concrete rubble, rebar, weeds, soil, base materials, lumber, and other materials to, from, and within the SCLA.

To move these materials, staff currently utilizes a 1991 Ford L8000 (“1991 L8000”) dump truck with 5 yards of hauling capacity and a 1988 Ford L8000 (“1988 L8000”) with 10 yards of hauling capacity. Both vehicles have been in service for well over 30 years and their age is impacting their effectiveness.

The 34-year-old 1991 L8000 has numerous issues that warrant a replacement vehicle.

The braking system on the 1991 L8000 has been problematic recently, causing staff to seek repair options to keep the vehicle functional. The heating and air conditioning system no longer functions on this vehicle. The failed air conditioning system makes the truck undesirable to operate during the summer months. Furthermore, the truck is out of compliance with ever increasing California emissions standards and has thus been relegated to low use status, minimizing it’s utility and making it fiscally irresponsible to maintain. Lastly, the hauling capacity of only 5 yards limits the effectiveness of this vehicle. Two scoops from a loader typically fill this truck to its capacity, which requires the truck to make twice as many trips as a 10-yard truck.

The 1988 L8000 with a 10 yard hauling capacity is a robust workhorse that has served the SCLA well. However, it is now in its 37 th year of operation and it is also relegated to low use due to its non-compliance with strict California emissions standards, thus limiting its effectiveness and making it fiscally irresponsible to maintain beyond basic maintenance.

Staff proposes replacing the 1991 L8000 with a modern 10-yard hauling capacity dump truck and keeping the 1988 L8000 on hand as an on-airport only vehicle to serve as a low use backup to the new dump truck.

Discussion:

The proposed purchase of a new 2024 Peterbilt Model 548 (“2024 Peterbilt”) would replace the aging, worn out, and low-use designated 1991 L8000. The 2024 Peterbilt will ensure staff has reliable, compliant equipment to support its maintenance activities. The 2024 Peterbilt has a 16 foot dump bed with a hauling capacity of 10 yards, which will allow staff to move material more efficiently than the 5 yard 1991 L8000 that it is replacing.

Staff anticipates cost savings derived from reduced maintenance costs and productivity gains. Two functional dump trucks, the proposed 2024 Peterbilt and the low use 1988 L8000 will allow Airport staff to work efficiently and to have a critical backup option in the event that one machine becomes inoperable and needs repairs.

To facilitate the procurement of this much needed equipment, the purchase of the 2024 Peterbilt is proposed through Rush Truck Center in Fontana, a dealer for Peterbilt, and a participant in a cooperative agreement program called Sourcewell. Sourcewell is a public agency that offers a multitude of cooperatively contracted specialized products and equipment to government entities. Per Municipal Code §2.28.120 “Purchases of 8 8
7 supplies and equipment through cooperative purchasing arrangements” allows for the procurement of equipment directly from vendors engaged in an approved cooperative agreement program without further solicitation. The Sourcewell Cooperative Agreement has been reviewed and approved by the City of Victorville Purchasing Manager. It fulfills the competitive bidding requirements, thus providing significant savings, and offers contract purchasing solutions from Peterbilt, to enable buying agencies to work smarter and more efficiently, while streamlining the required purchasing process.

The proposed equipment replacement will benefit the Airport by offering: increased reliability; increased safety; environmental compliance; improved productivity; and lower maintenance and operational costs. Staff has carefully reviewed the quote from Rush Truck Center in Fontana and determined it meets the requirements to properly service the SCLA. Therefore, staff is requesting the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority Board of Directors approve the purchase of a 2024 Peterbilt Model 548 Dump Truck in the amount totaling $223,842.86, from Rush Truck Center in Fontana.

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

MUNICIPAL CODE 2.28.120

2.28.120 Purchases of supplies and equipment through cooperative purchasing arrangements.
(a) Provided that city council approval is obtained for purchases in excess of one hundred twenty-five thousand dollars, the city manager may purchase supplies and equipment without complying with the quotation or bidding requirements of this chapter, if such purchases are based on an agreement or cooperative purchasing program entered into by any local, state or federal governmental agency, regardless of whether the city is named party to the agreement or an actual participant in such a program, provided it satisfies the criteria below:
(1) Any local, state, or governmental agency program, if the underlying purchase was made using quotation or bid procedures at least as restrictive as the city's; or (2) The California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS), the California Communities Purchasing Program, the Western States Contracting Alliance (WSCA), the County of Los Angeles, the U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance, California State Contracts administered by the Department of General Services (DGS) or other purchasing programs deemed by the city manager to be in conformance with the city's quotation or bid procedures to permit reasonable competition.

Submitted By:

C. Eric Ray, Airport Director

Subject:

Termination of Standard Sublease Agreement for Buildings 868, 868A, 869 and 835 by and between the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority and Overair, Inc.

Recommendation:

That the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“SCLAA”) Board of Directors ratify the termination of a Standard Sublease Agreement for Buildings 868, 868A, 869 and 835 (“Agreement”), by and between the SCLAA and Overair, Inc., (“Overair”).

Fiscal Impact:

The Termination Agreement presented herein for ratification will result in a reduction of revenue to Building 868 Complex Lease Occupancy account 4501175A-45200 in the amount of $101,556.15 for fiscal year 2024-2025, $247,797 for fiscal year 2025-2026, and $83,276.04 for fiscal year 2026-2027. Additionally, a reduction to revenue of less than $1,000 will occur in Building 868 Complex Utilities Reimbursement account 4501175A-47220 for the remaining fiscal year.

Considering the current insolvency of Overair, this budgeted revenue is highly unlikely to be collected regardless of whether the Termination Agreement is ratified.

Strategic Plan Goal:

The City of Victorville Strategic Plan 2023-2026 identifies multi-year strategic goals and various strategies to work toward achieving those goals. Goal A fosters fiscal health through disciplined long-term planning, cost control, increased revenues, and cost recovery. The termination of this Sublease will allow Staff to market the building to other tenants whilst potentially avoiding lengthy time delays and costly legal fees for the duration of the bankruptcy proceedings, which can take several years.

Background:

Overair’s primary business model was to develop and market an electric air taxi that could shuttle up to 5 passengers roughly 100 miles. Aircraft design occurred at Overair’s Santa Ana, CA. location and flight and equipment testing occurred at Southern California Logistics Airport (“SCLA”).

Overair previously entered into a Sublease Agreement for a certain cluster of properties at the SCLA described as Buildings 868, 868A, 869, and 835, known as Building 868 Complex, as described in the Sublease Agreement. Because of economic conditions beyond the control of Overair, its business operations went into liquidation, and it executed an Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors in favor of Insolvency Services Group, a California corporation (“ISG”).

Discussion:

Overair is now seeking to terminate the Sublease and vacate the premises in return for the Authority’s willingness to forego collection of any rent otherwise due and owing under the Sublease. To the extent Overair vacates the premises by January 31, 2025, and to the extent ISG relinquishes all of its rights under the Sublease or its Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors, the SCLAA is willing to return to Overair any security deposit previously deposited by Overair with the SCLAA and release Overair of their Sublease payment obligations.

Termination of the Sublease with Overair is beneficial to the SCLAA. The SCLAA will avoid litigation costs related to unlawful detainer actions by terminating the Sublease with Overair. Overair’s departure and Sublease termination of the Building 868 Complex will allow Airport staff to prepare and market the building to potential tenants. One Airport tenant has made a verbal commitment to Airport staff to begin a Sublease Agreement for the Building 868 Complex as of March 01, 2025, should the space become available.

Failure to terminate the Sublease with Overair would potentially take the building off of the market for an extensive period of time while court proceedings take place. Acting now to ratify the Termination Agreement is a demonstration of fiscal efficiency and prudence.

Therefore, staff requests that the SCLAA Board of Directors ratify the termination of a Standard Sublease Agreement for Buildings 868, 868A, 869 and 835 by and between the SCLAA and Overair, Inc.

Fiscal Impact:

The Agreement presented herein will generate approximately $1,634,896.24 in gross lease revenue over the first five years of the initial term (March 1, 2025 – February 28, 2030). The table below outlines the fiscal impact of the Agreement.

0 Background:

AeroPro is a FAA Part 145 paint and aircraft maintenance company located at the San Bernardino International Airport (“SBIA”) since February 2003, and at the SCLA since 2020. AeroPro has a solid reputation for providing high quality aircraft paint jobs for demanding clients. In addition to painting airliners, AeroPro specializes in aircraft interior modifications and engineering. AeroPro has painted numerous U.S. Air Force executive aircraft, high profile corporate aircraft, and several national head of state aircraft.

Additionally, AeroPro is certificated by the FAA to perform certain aircraft maintenance and interior modifications. AeroPro is operated by Joseph M. Ermalovich, who serves as the Chief Executive Officer. The SCLA facility currently employs approximately 68 employees.

AeroPro was awarded a Boeing contract to paint up 205 new Boeing 737 Max aircraft over 5 years. Per the contract, the anticipated pace for the painting will be for up to four aircraft per month. Moreover, AeroPro completed a contract with Boeing to design and construct a specialized scaffolding system that is capable of providing appropriate personnel access to Boeing aircraft without the risk of causing physical damage to the airframe. Boeing provided funding for AeroPro to construct this unique proprietary B737 Max gantry system that is being used at the SCLA in Building 756. Since occupying Building 756, AeroPro has completed a number of significant hangar improvements, which improved Building 756’s function and value.

Discussion:

AeroPro’s primary customer, Boeing, is imposing new obligations on AeroPro to construct certain air handling improvements to Building 756, which will allow for smooth, quality paint finishes all year long. Staff believes these improvements will have a useful life in excess of 40 years and will add value to the property which will ultimately enhance the SCLA’s asset value for Building 756. If not for the construction of the air handling improvements, AeroPro may lose the Boeing contract to another state where Boeing has other aircraft paint vendors. AeroPro requested a termination of the original lease agreement in favor of a new lease that captures the needed air handling improvements and rent credits, and provides an adequate term to justify said capital expenditures.

The proposed Agreement for Building 756 entails an initial term of ten years with a commencement date of March 1, 2025. The Agreement also contemplates two additional, five-year option terms. The Leased Premises consist of Building 756 which is comprised of approximately 54,649 square feet of hangar, office, and mechanical space.

AeroPro has agreed to pay $30,138.87 per month with an annual 2.5% inflator. This amounts to $.55 per square foot per month, which is comparable with similar SCLA buildings.

Because the Standard Lease Agreement will accommodate two SCLA tenants’ needs, maintain local employment, and produce a steady revenue stream, staff recommends that the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority Board approve the Standard Lease 5 7
0 Agreement with AeroPro, LLC., for Building 756 and authorize the Executive Director to execute said agreement. Such approval is being requested, subject to any minor, non- substantive modifications to the Standard Lease Agreement as approved by the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority, Legal Counsel and the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority Executive Director.

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

STANDARD LEASE

AGREEMENT FOR
BUILDING 756

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA LOGISTICS AIRPORT AUTHORITY

STANDARD LEASE AGREEMENT
(BUILDING 756)
This Lease Agreement (the “Lease”) dated this _______ day of February 2025, for reference purposes only, is made by and between SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA LOGISTICS AIRPORT AUTHORITY (“SCLAA”), a California joint powers authority, (hereinafter referred to as “Lessor”) and AEROPRO, LLC (“AeroPro”), a California limited liability company (hereinafter referred to as “Lessee”). Lessor and Lessee are sometimes referred to hereinafter individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

RECITALS
A. The United States Air Force (“Air Force”) and the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority (“the Authority”) have previously entered into certain Department of the Air Force Leases (hereinafter referred to as the “Air Force Leases”) pertaining to portions of former George Air Force Base, which is now known as Southern California Logistics Airport (“SCLA”).

B. The Authority has delegated its decision-making authority with respect to the SCLA to the Lessor, which now has the authority to enter into transactions on behalf of the Authority.

C. The Air Force (“Grantor”) and the SCLAA (“Grantee”) have entered into certain Air Force Quitclaim Deed(s) (“Quitclaim Deed(s)”), which release and forever quitclaim to the Grantee all the real property described in such Quitclaim Deed(s), subject to the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions set forth in the Quitclaim Deed(s).

D. Lessee seeks to lease from the Lessor a portion of the real property subject to the Quitclaim Deed(s) (hereinafter defined as the “Leased Premises” and described more fully below) under the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease.

E. Although the Leased Premises are subject to and governed by the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of the Quitclaim Deed(s), certain portions of the SCLA (some of which may include appurtenances, access/use rights, privileges and/or easements associated with the Leased Premises) are subject to the provisions and conditions of the Air Force Leases, and Lessee shall be subject to and comply with any and all provisions and conditions of such Air Force Leases as applicable.

F. Lessor and Lessee previously entered into a Standard Lease Agreement dated October 8, 2020, (the “Original Lease”) pertaining to the lease of certain premises known as Building 756 at the SCLA.

G. Due to unforeseeable circumstances necessitated by the COVID 19 pandemic, the Lessor and Lessee agreed that the Original Lease needed to be amended.

Therefore, Lessor and Lessee entered into a First Amendment to Original Lease dated March 15, 2021 (the “First Amendment”), extending the construction duration and related SCLAA Standard Lease Page 1 AeroPro LLC Building 756

rent credits pertaining to certain Tenant Improvements described therein for a period of six (6) additional months, and a rent reduction for ten (10) months.

H. Lessor successfully completed the construction of the Tenant Improvements and by May 2024, realized the final portion of rent credit that was available for fifty percent (50%) of the incurred expense.

I. Lessee’s primary customer is imposing new obligations on Lessee to construct certain Air Handling Improvements, as hereinafter described, to the Leased Premises which will allow for smooth, quality paint finishes all year long. Lessor finds these improvements will have a useful life in excess of forty (40) years and will add value to the Leased Premises which will ultimately enhance the SCLAA’s asset value for Building 756.

J. Lessor believes that, if not for the construction of the Air Handling Improvements, the Lessee may lose its business opportunities to another state where Lessee’s customers have other aircraft paint vendors.

K. Pursuant meeting with SCLAA staff on November 4, 2024, Lessee has requested the Original Lease and the First Amendment be terminated in favor of a new lease that facilitates installation of the needed Air Handling Improvements and provides an adequate Lease term to justify said capital expenditure.

L. Therefore, the Original Lease and the First Amendment are hereby terminated and replaced with the execution of this Lease.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Leased Premises. Subject to the terms and conditions herein contained, Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor the Leased Premises described as follows:

3. Option to Extend Term.

5. Right to Terminate for Development.

Lessee shall deposit with the Lessor upon execution hereof Thirty Thousand One Hundred Thirty-Eight Dollars and Eighty-Seven Cents ($30,138.87), which includes Twenty-Six Thousand Seven Hundred Seventy-Eight Dollars ($26,778) already on deposit with Lessor, as security for Lessee’s faithful performance of Lessee’s obligations hereunder (the “Security Deposit”). If Lessee fails to pay rent or other charges due hereunder, fails to pay any utility or service provider, or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, the Lessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said deposit for payment of any rent or other charges in default or for the payment of any other sum to which the Lessor may become obligated by reason of Lessee’s default, or to compensate the Lessor for any loss or damage which the Lessor may suffer thereby. At all times during the Term hereof, Lessee must maintain at a minimum the amount of Security Deposit specified in this Section.

8. Brokerage Commission. Lessor and Lessee represent and affirm to each other that they have not had any dealings with any real estate brokers, finders or agents and no commissions or fees are payable by either Party in connection with this Lease.

9. Late Charge. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of any installment of rent, or any other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by the Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if any installment of rent, or any other sum due from Lessee is not received by the Lessor within ten (10) days after such amount is due, whether or not any notice of default or other notice has been given, Lessee shall pay to the Lessor a charge equal to six percent (6%) of the amount past due (the “Late Charge”), in addition to the payment of the past due amount itself. The Parties hereby agree that such Late Charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs the Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee, and no more than one Late Charge shall be assessed per month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Lessee elects to make annual payments in advance, then no Late Charge shall apply.

10. Limited Right to Possession of the Leased Premises. Lessor shall deliver possession of the Leased Premises to Lessee on or before the Lease Commencement Date, free and clear of all tenants, occupants, and right of any third parties except as hereafter provided in this Section 10. Lessee agrees that its possession of the Leased Premises shall be subject to any outstanding easements and rights-of-way not within the control of the Lessor and further to the right of entry by the Air Force and such other government entities as provided for under the Quitclaim Deed(s). The Lessor shall use best efforts to ensure the quiet use and enjoyment of the Leased Premises by Lessee.

However, unreasonable interference by Lessor or the Air Force with Lessee’s quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises that results in material and demonstrable financial detriment to Lessee and Lessee being unable to continue its business functions in a commercially reasonable manner, shall be grounds for termination of the Lease by Lessee.

SCLAA Standard Lease Page 5 AeroPro LLC Building 756

11. Holding Over. In the event Lessee, with the Lessor’s prior written consent, holds over and continues in possession of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, after the Expiration Date of this Lease, such occupancy shall be considered a month-to-month tenancy subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease in effect on the day immediately preceding the Expiration Date, except that the Monthly Base Rent for any such holdover period shall be increased to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Monthly Base Rent. If Lessee, without the Lessor’s prior written consent, holds over or continues in possession of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, after the Expiration Date of this Lease, such occupancy shall be deemed a tenancy at sufferance, permitting the Lessor to immediately commence eviction proceedings without notice to Lessee.

12. Right to Relocate. With respect to any building which Lessee occupies pursuant to this Lease, after Lessee’s execution of this Lease, Lessor, shall have the right, upon giving Lessee ninety (90) days’ notice in writing, to provide and furnish Lessee with space elsewhere in such other building within the boundaries of the SCLA of approximately the same size and with similar characteristics and amenities (such as access to streets and runways) as the Leased Premises, and to place Lessee in such new building space at the Lessor’s expense. Such right shall only be exercised in good faith to the extent the Lessor requires the Leased Premises for the development of the SCLA. In the event Lessor moves Lessee to said new space within any building then this Lease with respect to the original Leased Premises and each and all of the terms and covenants and conditions thereof shall thereupon remain in full force and effect and be deemed applicable to such new space. If the space in the building is smaller in size than the existing Leased Premises, then Lessor shall receive a reduction in rent equal to the difference between the size (using interior square footage) of the existing Leased Premises and the size of the new building. However, Lessee shall not be assessed additional rent if the new space is larger in size than the Lessee’s then existing Leased Premises, unless the new building exceeds the size of the existing Leased Premises by more than fifteen percent (15%). Lessee reserves the right to reject relocation to a specific location which does not comply with the terms of this provision.

13. Maintenance. Except for excessive repair and maintenance necessitated solely by Lessor’s activities, Lessee shall at all times during the Term hereof and until surrender and termination, keep and maintain the Leased Premises in good and substantial order and repair, and shall undertake all necessary repair and maintenance of the Leased Premises. Lessee shall be responsible for all operating expenses associated with maintaining the Leased Premises including, but not limited to: cleaning; light bulb replacement; procurement of supplies and maintenance materials; preventative maintenance; repair; upkeep and emptying of emergency/hazardous spill trench drains and reservoir; signs; sidewalks; all monthly, quarterly, and annual inspection/servicing and repair of the Leased Premises mechanical, electrical, lighting, plumbing, and life safety systems; furniture and window cleaning; servicing of fire extinguishers and fire suppression systems; repairs to trade fixtures and/or equipment, doors, ceilings, roofing, floors; exterior painting, resurfacing paved exterior areas and the like; associated fees, etc. Lessee agrees at Lessee’s sole cost and expense to procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease, or any extension thereof, contracts for the SCLAA Standard Lease Page 6 AeroPro LLC Building 756

inspection/servicing and maintenance of HVAC equipment, fire extinguishing and suppression systems, fire alarms and/or smoke detection systems, and air compressor systems. Lessee also agrees throughout the Term (or any extension thereof) to supply copies of all such contracts and any fire or life safety related certifications and/or inspection records to the Lessor in a timely manner. Furthermore, Lessor represents, and Lessee hereby acknowledges, that the hangar portion of Building 756 was constructed with a “Water Shedding Roof” that is designed to keep the floor space below the roof substantially dry. Consequently, and dependent upon, rain volume; wind speed, and wind direction, the hangar roof is expected to experience minor leakage. The Lessee shall maintain and repair the roof to the extent required to ensure that no individual leaks exceed a flow rate of two (2) gallons per hour.

14. Use and Condition of Leased Premises. The Leased Premises are to be used by Lessee for those purposes more particularly provided for on Exhibit E, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, and for no other purpose unless expressly agreed to by the Lessor in writing. Lessee agrees to use the Leased Premises in such a manner as to not interfere with the Lessor’s rights in the Leased Premises or the surrounding areas, to comply with all airport rules and regulations, all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, and regulations in connection with its use of the Leased Premises, to keep the Leased Premises in a clean and sanitary condition, and to use all reasonable precaution to prevent damage, or injury to the Leased Premises. (a) Permits. Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall apply for and obtain any and all permits and/or certifications required by any federal, state or local governmental entity, including, but not limited to the Mojave Desert Air Quality Board, in connection with the painting, maintenance and/or overhaul of aircraft in or about the Leased Premises. Such permits shall include, but not be limited to, any which may be required for the air handling and ventilation requirements for the Leased Premises.

Furthermore, Lessee shall coordinate and cooperate with the Mojave Desert Air Quality Board as may be required from time to time. Any and all such permits and/or certifications shall be obtained in such a manner so as to run in favor of the Leased Premises and/or the Lessor, and such permits or certifications shall remain with the Leased Premises upon the expiration or termination of the Lease.
(b) No Warranties. Except as provided herein, Lessee agrees that no promises, covenants, representations, statements, or warranties have been made on behalf of the Lessor to Lessee respecting the condition of the Leased Premises, or the manner of operating the Leased Premises or the maintaining of any repairs to the Leased Premises.
(c) Acceptance of Leased Premises. Lessee acknowledges that it has satisfied itself by its own independent investigation that the Leased Premises are suitable for its intended use, and that neither the Lessor nor the Lessor’s agent or agents have made any representation or warranty as to the present or future suitability of the Leased Premises for the conduct of Lessee’s business. Lessee’s taking possession or use of the Leased Premises for any purpose shall constitute Lessee’s acceptance of the Leased SCLAA Standard Lease Page 7 AeroPro LLC Building 756

Premises “as-is” in its existing condition, which condition shall be established as set forth on Exhibit E
(d) Notice of Presence of Asbestos and Lead Based Paint. Lessee, its successors, and assigns are warned that the Leased Premises may contain asbestos materials and lead-based paint materials. No warranties, either expressed or implied, are given with regard to the quantity, location or condition of the asbestos containing materials or the lead-based paint materials. Lessee, its successors, and assigns, shall be deemed to have relied solely on their own judgment in assessing the overall condition of all or any portion of the Leased Premises, including any asbestos hazards or lead-based paint hazards or concerns. Lessee acknowledges that Lessee was given every opportunity to inspect the Leased Premises to assess the risk, if any, from asbestos containing material or lead-based paint materials.

Lessor assumes no liability for damages for personal injury, illness, disability or death to Lessee or to Lessee’s successors, assigns, employees, invitees, or any other persons subject to Lessee’s control or direction, or to any person, including members of the general public arising from or incident to the purchase, transportation, removal, handling, use, disposition or any activity causing or leading to contact of any kind whatsoever with asbestos or lead-based paint on the Leased Premises which is the subject of this Lease, whether Lessee, its successors or assigns has or have properly warned or failed to properly warn the individuals injured. Lessee, its successors and assigns, further agree that in its use and occupancy of the Leased Premises, it will comply with all federal, state and local laws relating to asbestos and lead-based paint. (e) Personal Property. Lessee shall, at the termination of this Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, remove all of Lessee’s personal property, repair any damage to the Leased Premises resulting therefrom, and surrender the Leased Premises to the Lessor in as good a condition as when Lessee took possession, normal wear and tear excepted.

15. Waste or Nuisance. Lessee shall not commit or permit the commission by others of any waste on the Leased Premises. Lessee shall not maintain, commit, or permit the maintenance or commission of any nuisance on the Leased Premises nor shall Lessee use or permit the use of the Leased Premises for any unlawful purpose.

16. Taxes. Lessee shall pay when due and prior to delinquency all taxes, assessments, and other charges including possessory interest taxes levied or imposed by any governmental entity on the possessory interest of Lessee in the Leased Premises and the personal property, trade fixtures, appliances, and leased equipment placed by Lessee in, on, or about the Leased Premises during the Term (or any extension thereof) of this Lease. Lessee recognizes that the interests of Lessee in this Lease shall be subject to the imposition of a possessory interest tax by the San Bernardino County Assessor, and Lessee agrees to pay such tax amount as may be so levied with respect to the possessory interest of Lessee in the Leased Premises under this Lease. Lessee further acknowledges that pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 33673, SCLAA Standard Lease Page 8 AeroPro LLC Building 756

the property shall be assessed in the same manner as privately owned property and Lessee shall pay taxes upon the assessed value of the entire property and not merely the assessed value of its leasehold interest.

17. Compliance With Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of the Quitclaim Deed(s), Air Force Leases and Related Agreements.
(a) Lessee acknowledges that copies of the applicable Quitclaim Deed(s) and the Air Force Leases are available and on file in the SCLA office. (b) Lessee expressly acknowledges that the Lessor has assumed certain duties and obligations to the Air Force (“Grantor”) under the Quitclaim Deed(s) affecting the use and occupancy of the Leased Premises. Lessee further agrees that as of the Lease Commencement Date, it shall observe and perform the duties and obligations of the Lessor (Grantee as the case may be in this Section 17) relating to the Leased Premises in favor of the Air Force which arise under the Quitclaim Deed(s).

These duties and obligations as assumed by Lessee include, but are not limited to, the following which are presented below for purposes of reference and convenience:

I. Reserving unto the Grantor all oil, gas, and other mineral resources of any kind or nature in the mineral estate of the Leased Premises, provided, however, that such reservation is without surface right of entry or extraction rights; and II. Reserving unto the Grantor right of access to the Leased Premises, extending such access to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the State of California (the “State”), and their respective officials, agents, employees, contractors, and subcontractors for the purposes of the Installation Restoration Program (“IRP”) of the Grantor or the Federal Facility Agreement (“FFA”). (c) Lessee further expressly acknowledges that it is subject to and shall comply with all provisions and conditions of the applicable Air Force Leases. (d) Any use, occupancy or activity of Lessee on the Leased Premises which may result in either the receipt by the Lessor of a notice of violation or default or breach from the Air Force or the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) under the Quitclaim Deed(s) or a notice of default, violation or breach from the Air Force or the FAA under the Air Force Leases, shall be deemed to be a default of Lessee under this Lease.

The response of the Lessor following receipt of any such notice of violation, default or breach, shall not waive, stay or otherwise mitigate or remedy the default of Lessee to the Lessor under this Lease. Lessee shall have no right under this Lease to participate in any proceeding between the Air Force, the FAA, and the Lessor for the resolution of an alleged default, breach or other dispute of the Parties arising under the Quitclaim Deed(s) and/or the Air Forces Leases, except to the extent the Lessee is alleged to have directly caused such violation, breach or default.

SCLAA Standard Lease Page 9 AeroPro LLC Building 756

(e) Lessee acknowledges that the Leased Premises may be subject to a future Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions to be recorded in the official records of San Bernardino County, California, as amended (the “CC&Rs”). In addition to any other applicable assessments, this Lease may be subject to any assessments levied pursuant to the CC&Rs and applicable to the Leased Premises, determined by the ratio that the rentable area of building on the Leased Premises bears to the total net rentable area of building or buildings which include the Leased Premises and for which a separate assessment is made pursuant to the CC&Rs.

18. Insurance. Lessee shall procure and maintain for the duration of the Lease insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with Lessee’s operation and use of the Leased Premises. The cost of such insurance shall be borne by the Lessee. Coverage shall be at least as broad as:
(a) Commercial General Liability Insurance. (“CGL”): Insurance Services Office Form CG 00 01 covering CGL on an “occurrence” basis, including products completed operations, property damage, bodily injury and personal and advertising injury with limits no less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) per occurrence.

If a general aggregate limit applies, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to this project/location (ISO CG 25 03 or 25 04) or the general aggregate limit shall be twice the required occurrence.
(b) Property Insurance. Lessee acknowledges that the insurance to be maintained by the Lessor on the Leased Premises will not insure against any of the Lessee’s property or improvements made by the Lessee. Accordingly, Lessee shall maintain in full force and effect insurance against all risks of loss to any improvements or betterments, at full replacement cost with no coinsurance penalty provision. Property Insurance is to be endorsed to include Legal Liability Coverage (ISO Form CP 00 40 04 02 or equivalent) with a limit equal to the replacement cost of the Leased Premises. (c) (c) Commercial Vehicle Liability Insurance. ISO Form Number CA 00 01 covering any auto (Code 1), or if Lessee has no owned autos, hired (Code 8) and non-owned (Code 9), with limit no less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per accident for bodily injury and property damage.
(d) Workers’ Compensation Insurance. Workers’ Compensation: as required by the State of California, with Statutory Limits, and Employer’s Liability Insurance with limits of no less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per accident for bodily injury or disease. If Lessee has no employees, it may certify or warrant to the Lessor that it does not currently have any employees or individuals who are defined as “employees” under the Labor Code and the requirement for Workers’ Compensation coverage may be waived by the Risk Manager.
(e) Lessee may use Umbrella or Excess Policies to provide the liability limits as required in this Lease. This form of insurance will be acceptable provided that all of the Primary and Umbrella or Excess policies shall provide all of the insurance SCLAA Standard Lease Page 10 AeroPro LLC Building 756

coverages herein required, including, but not limited to, primary and noncontributory, additional insured, Self-Insured Retentions, indemnity and defense requirements. The Umbrella and Excess policies shall be provided on a true “following form” or broader coverage basis, with coverage at least as broad as provided on the underlying CGL insurance. No insurance maintained by the Additional Insureds, whether primary or excess, and which also apply to loss covered hereunder, shall be called upon to contribute to a loss until Lessee’s primary and excess policies are exhausted. (f) If the Lessee maintains broader coverage and/or higher limits than the minimum limits shown above, the Lessor requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits maintained by the Lessee. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the Lessor.
(g) The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain the following provisions:
(i) Additional Named Insureds. Notwithstanding any inconsistent statement in any required insurance policies or any subsequent endorsements attached thereto, the protection offered by the commercial general liability policy described in subsection (a) above shall bear an endorsement whereby it is provided that, the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“Lessor”), the City of Victorville, the City Attorney, the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority, the United States Air Force, and their respective officers, officials, employees, servants, volunteers, agents, and independent contractors are named as Additional Insureds. General Liability coverage can be provided in the form of an endorsement to the Lessee’s insurance (at least as broad as ISO Form CG 20 10 11 85 or if not available, through the addition of both CG 20 10, CG 20 26, CG 20 33, or CG 2038; and CG 20 37 if a later edition is used). (ii) Waiver of Subrogation Rights. Lessee hereby grants to the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“Lessor”), the City of Victorville, the City Attorney, the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority, the United States Air Force, and their respective officers, officials, employees, servants, volunteers, agents, and independent contractors a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Lessee may acquire against the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority, the City of Victorville, the City Attorney, the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority, and the United States Air Force. Lessee agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether or not the Lessor has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.
(iii) For any claims related to this Lease, the Lessee’s coverage shall be primary and noncontributory and at least as broad as ISO CG 20 01 04 13 with respects to the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“Lessor”), the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority, the City of Victorville, the City Attorney and the United States Air Force and their officers, officials, employees, volunteers, contractors and SCLAA Standard Lease Page 11 AeroPro LLC Building 756

subcontractors. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (“Lessor”), the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority, the City of Victorville, the City Attorney and the United States Air Force and their officers, officials, employees, volunteers, contractors and subcontractors shall be in excess of the Lessee’s insurance and shall not contribute with it, and Lessor's coverage shall be primary and noncontributory for any claims unrelated to this Lease.

19. Proof of Insurance Coverage.
(a) Lessee shall secure from a good and responsible company or companies authorized to do insurance business in the State of California the policies of insurance required by this Lease and furnish to Lessor certificates of said insurance on or before the Lease Commencement Date.
(b) Each insurance policy required in the Lease shall provide that coverage should not be canceled, except with written notice to the Lessor. (c) Lessee shall furnish the Lessor with original certificates of insurance and amendatory endorsements, or copies of applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this lease and a copy of the Declarations and Endorsements Pages of the CGL and any Excess policies listing all policy endorsements. All certificates, endorsements and copies or Declarations and Endorsements are to be received and approved before the Commencement Date. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the Commencement Date shall not waive the Lessee’s obligation to provide them.
(d) Self-insured. If Lessee is self-insured, it shall provide certificates or evidence to Lessor indicating that its insurance meets the levels and requirements as set forth herein above.

20. Personal Property at Risk of Lessee. All personal property which Lessee maintains at the Leased Premises shall be at the risk of Lessee only. Except for the grossly negligent, reckless, or unlawful intentional acts of the Lessor, its agents, employees, guests or invitees, the Lessor shall not be liable for any damage to any property of Lessee or for any damage to Lessee’s property in moving the same to or from the Leased Premises.

21. Utilities and Other Services.
(a) Lessee shall contract with and pay the applicable provider, whether the provider is the Lessor or another party, all charges for water/sewer, gas, electricity, waste disposal or other utilities used or supplied upon or in connection with its use of the Leased Premises and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lessor against any liability on account thereof. Lessee shall obtain separate metering devices for utility services, as applicable. Lessee agrees to promptly reimburse Lessor upon receipt of invoice, its proportionate share of the actual cost of utility services from any common SCLAA Standard Lease Page 12 AeroPro LLC Building 756

utility service, which may have been paid by Lessor. In no event shall Lessor be liable for any interruption or failure in the supply of any such utilities to the Leased Premises. (b) Consent to Energy Use Data Disclosure. By executing this Lease, Lessee hereby consents to disclosure of its energy usage data as required for Lessor to comply with California Public Resources Code section 25402.10 and the implementing regulations of the California Energy Commission (20 Cal. Code Regs., §§ 1680 through 1685). Strictly for the purposes of ensuring such compliance, including any required public disclosure of aggregated energy use, Lessee agrees to provide such energy usage data directly to Lessor and/or authorizes Lessor to obtain the required energy usage data directly from Lessee’s utility providers upon request without the need to execute any further authorizations or consent forms. Lessee’s consent and authorization is deemed given upon the execution of this Lease and shall continue to be in effect throughout the Term or any extension thereof.

22. Alterations, Improvements and Additions.
(a) Lessee shall not make any alterations, improvements, or additions to the Leased Premises (collectively hereinafter the “Improvements”) without the prior written consent of the Lessor. Any machinery, equipment, or apparatus, which belongs to Lessee, may be removed by Lessee at any time prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease or any extension thereof.
(b) Once completed, Improvements authorized in writing by Lessor and/or any specific Tenant Improvements as may be provided for elsewhere in this Lease, shall not be removed by Lessee, unless so required by the Lessor in its sole discretion.

At the end of the Term (or any extension thereof) of this Lease (or upon any earlier termination as may be provided for herein) Lessor shall have the option to either require Lessee to remove the Improvements or Tenant Improvements or elect to have such Improvements or Tenant Improvements become the property of Lessor. In the case of removal of equipment or fixtures, Lessee shall restore the area of the Leased Premises from which such removals are made to its original condition. Lessee shall require the issuance of a Faithful Performance Bond and a Payment Bond for any work performed on the Leased Premises as set forth below:

BOND REQUIREMENTS - A Faithful Performance Bond benefitting the Lessor in the amount of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the bid amount and a Payment Bond in the amount of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the bid amount. Bonds must be issued by an admitted surety insurer in the State of California. When a contract for constructing Lessor-authorized Improvements or Tenant Improvements is signed, the successful bidder shall provide, within ten (10) working days, the Faithful Performance and Payment Bonds in the amounts set forth above in this paragraph.

SCLAA Standard Lease Page 13 AeroPro LLC Building 756

23. Airport Development. The Lessor, at its sole discretion, shall determine and may from time to time change the routes of surface ingress and egress to and from the Leased Premises, but agrees to locate such routes as conveniently as may be done for Lessee, having in mind the reasonable requirements of the Lessor with respect to the operation of the SCLA. Notwithstanding the above, if the rerouting of such ingress and egress routes significantly disrupts the normal operations of Lessee such that it results in material financial detriment to Lessee, then Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease.

24. Signs. Lessee shall not post, install, erect or operate any sign, placard, poster or other device on any part of the Leased Premises without the prior written permission of the Lessor. Such signs as may from time to time be permitted by the Lessor shall be made, posted, maintained and removed, and repair any damage caused by removal, at Lessee’s own cost and expense. Lessor shall have the right to remove unauthorized signs at Lessee’s expense. Lessee shall be responsible for all costs associated with the purchase and installation of the required Building Standard Suite Signage in accordance with local codes.

25. Liens. Lessee shall not suffer or permit any liens to stand against the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, by reason of any work, labor, services or materials done for, or supplied to Lessee or anyone holding the Leased Premises or any part thereof through or under Lessee. If any such lien shall at any time be filed against the Leased Premises, Lessee shall cause such lien to either be discharged of record sixty (60) days after the date that Lessee receives notice of the filing. Notwithstanding the above, in any bona fide dispute between Lessee and any third party concerning work done by the third party on or for the Leased Premises, and as a result of the dispute the third party files a lien against the Leased Premises, then, in lieu of obtaining the discharge of the lien within the sixty (60) day period, Lessee, at its option, may either file suit against the third party, a part of the suit being to judicially negate or remove the lien or Lessee may file an appropriate bond or other device allowed by law to remove the lien.

26. Inspection by the Lessor. Lessee shall permit Lessor, or its agents, representatives, or employees to enter the Leased Premises at mutually agreeable, reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the Leased Premises to determine whether Lessee is complying with the terms of this Lease, for the purpose of doing other lawful acts that may be necessary to protect the Lessor’s interest in the Leased Premises, or for the purpose of performing the Lessor’s duties under this Lease. Except in the event of an emergency, Lessor shall contact Lessee, no less than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the time that Lessor desires to enter the Leased Premises to arrange a mutually agreeable time for the inspection.

27. Damage or Destruction of Leased Premises. Unless occasioned by the negligence or intentionally unlawful act of Lessee, if, during the term of this Lease, any portion of the Leased Premises shall be damaged by fire or other catastrophic cause, so as to render such portion of the Leased Premises untenable, the obligations under this Lease shall be immediately suspended while such portion of the Leased Premises SCLAA Standard Lease Page 14 AeroPro LLC Building 756

remains untenable. In the event of such damage, the Lessee shall give Lessor notice of such untenable conditions and the Lessor shall elect in its sole discretion, whether to repair the Leased Premises or to cancel this Lease with respect thereto. It shall notify Lessee in writing of its election within thirty (30) days after such damage. In the event the Lessor elects to repair the Leased Premises, the work or repair shall begin promptly and shall be carried on without unnecessary delay. In the event the Lessor elects not to repair the Leased Premises or portion thereof, the Lease shall be deemed canceled as of the date of damage with respect to the applicable portion. Such damage shall not extend the Lease Term. In the event that insurance proceeds are received by Lessee under the property casualty policy required to be carried by Lessee, and the Lease is terminated under this Section, Lessor shall be entitled to the portion of such proceeds attributable to the fixtures, improvements, and other property which would remain with the Leased Premises, and Lessee shall be entitled to the portion of such proceeds attributed to the fixtures and property on the Leased Premises which would be removed by Lessee.

Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, if the Leased Premises are rendered inadequate for Lessee to conduct its normal operations in or upon the Leased Premises (or such portion of the Leased Premises which is still tenantable), and it is reasonably anticipated that the damages shall not be repaired or otherwise resolved, within sixty (60) days of the date of the accident, then Lessee, at its sole and exclusive option, may immediately terminate this Lease. Additionally, irrespective of whether Lessee remains in possession and occupancy of the Leased Premises or elects to terminate this Lease, rent payable under this Lease shall abate during the period that the Leased Premises are not totally useable by Lessee. The abatement shall be pro rata in proportion to the ratio that the amount of space which Lessee is actually able to occupy and from which it is able to conduct operations bears to the total Leased Premises.

Lessee shall continue to make all other payments during this period, including taxes.

28. Assignment and Subletting. Lessee shall not cause, or permit, by operation of law or otherwise, any assignment, encumbrance or transfer of this Lease or any estate or interest therein without the prior written consent of the Lessor. Lessee shall not sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof without the prior written consent of the Lessor.

Such consent is subject to consideration by Lessor of the financial arrangement between Lessee and its proposed subtenant and is subject to Lessor’s financial participation in such arrangement. In addition, if Lessee’s proposed sublease or assignment arrangement will result in any increased rents or profits accruing to Lessee in excess of the Monthly Base Rent due to Lessor under this Lease, such consent shall further be conditioned upon Lessor receiving fifty percent (50%) of the excess amount thereof. An assignment or subletting shall not relieve Lessee of any of its obligations or liabilities under this Lease: both Lessee and any subsequent assignees of Lessee will be deemed to be bound hereunder. The Lessor’s consent to any such assignment, transfer or subletting shall not constitute consent to any further assignment, transfer or subletting.

This provision is not intended, nor should it be construed, to prevent Lessee from allowing such independent contractors onto the Leased Premises who are involved in Lessee’s normal operations on the Leased Premises (such as repair and maintenance personnel, janitorial personnel, and similar personnel). Additionally, this provision should not be construed to prevent subcontractors of Lessee from conducting their work on the Leased SCLAA Standard Lease Page 15 AeroPro LLC Building 756

Premises in conjunction with the normal operations conducted by Lessee. To the extent that Lessor must grant its consent for Lessee’s subcontractors to enter onto the Leased Premises for the above-described purposes, consent is hereby deemed to be granted.

29. Indemnification.

This obligation of Lessee shall survive the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease, and shall apply whenever the Lessor incurs cost or liability arising from any use or activity of Lessee relating to Hazardous Materials during the Term or any extension thereof
(c) Without limiting the foregoing, if at any time during the Term of this Lease or any extension thereof, the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Leased Premises caused by Lessee, its agents, employees, contractors, or invitees results in an unpermitted, unscheduled or unauthorized release or contamination of the Leased Premises by such Hazardous Materials, then Lessee shall at its sole cost and expense promptly take all actions necessary to return the Leased Premises to the condition existing prior to the unpermitted, unscheduled or unauthorized release of any such Hazardous Materials on the Leased Premises.

34. Defaults.
(a) In the event Lessee should default in the performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease (excluding the payment of any monthly rent or other amounts due hereunder) and such default is not cured or removed within thirty (30) days after service of written notice upon Lessee of such default in the performance of any covenants and conditions; then in such event, the Lessor shall have the right and option to terminate this Lease, to re-enter the Leased Premises, to evict Lessee and to remove Lessee’s possessions, all without being deemed guilty of any trespass, and without prejudice to any claim for arrears of rent or breach of covenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lessee, prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period for default diligently commences to cure such default but is unable to do so within the thirty (30) day period, then such period shall be extended for an additional thirty (30) days provided Lessee continues to make a diligent effort to cure the default. (b) Failure to pay Monthly Base Rent or any other amounts when due shall be deemed a default under this provision. Lessee shall cure such default within ten (10) days after service of written notice.
(c) Any statutory notice required as part of any eviction action or similar type of proceeding may be included with any notice of default given pursuant to this Section and the Lessor need not declare a default and have such default remain uncured prior to delivery of such statutory notice.

35. Remedies of the Lessor. In the event of any breach of the Lease by Lessee and the cure periods described in Section 34 hereof have expired, Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand and without limiting the Lessor in the exercise of any other right or remedy which the Lessor may have by reason of such breach, do any of the following:
(a) terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Leased Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate, and Lessee shall surrender possession of the Leased Premises to the Lessor. This may involve the Lessor filing an unlawful detainer action and receiving a court order for Lessee to vacate the premises.

In any such event, the Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by the Lessor by reason of Lessee’s default, including, but not limited to the cost of repairing or restoring damages to the Leased Premises caused by Lessee, the cost or removal of Lessee’s improvements, fixtures and other contents of the Leased Premises, costs associated with past or future brokerage commissions and marketing expenses and the other costs payable by the Lessor in connection with the recovery of possession of the Leased Premises, including, but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, as well as: (1) the worth at the time of award by the court having jurisdiction thereof of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination, and (2) the worth at the time of award by the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Term after the time of such award may exceed the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Lessee proves could be reasonably SCLAA Standard Lease Page 19 AeroPro LLC Building 756

avoided; or
(b) pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to the Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the State of California.

36. Default by the Lessor. In the event Lessor should default in the performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease and such default is not cured or removed within thirty (30) days after service of written notice of default upon Lessor, then in any such event, Lessee shall have the right and option to terminate this Lease. If Lessor, prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period for a default, diligently commences to cure such default, but is unable to do so within the thirty (30) day period, then such period shall be extended for an additional thirty (30) days provided Lessor continues to make a diligent effort to cure the default. In event of uncured default Lessee shall have all remedies available at law or in equity for any default or breach of this Lease by the Lessor.

37. Force Majeure-Unavoidable Delays. If the performance of any act required by this Lease to be performed by either Party is prevented or delayed by reason of an act of God, strike, lockout, labor troubles, inability to secure materials, unreasonably restrictive governmental laws or regulations, or any other cause except financial inability that is not the fault of the Party required to perform the act, the time for performance of the act will be extended for a period equivalent to the period of delay, and performance of the act during the period of delay will be excused. However, nothing contained in this Section shall excuse the prompt payment of rent by Lessee as required by this Lease or the performance of any act rendered difficult solely because of the financial condition of the Party required to perform the act.

Airport Rates and Charges
Introduction / Guiding Principles:

A.1 In establishing a Schedule of Airport Rates and Charges, the Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (the “Airport Authority”) is required by federal regulations to ensure that charges are fair, reasonable and non- discriminatory. Further, Airport Rates and Charges are to be reasonably consistent with the rates and charges being applied by other airports for similar types of activities, unless there is a special situation unique to the Southern California Logistics Airport.

A.2 The Airport Authority fully recognizes the FAA prohibition against the diversion of Airport revenues for non-airport purposes. It is recognized that failure to collect fair and reasonable fees and market-based rents for the use of Airport property, facilities and equipment can be considered a form of Revenue Diversion. The Authority also recognizes the FAA requirement to establish a Schedule of Rates and Charges that will permit the Airport to be as self- sustaining as possible.

Airport User Fees Defined:

A.3 Aircraft Landing Fees: The Southern California Logistics Airport Authority (SCLA) has expended a significant amount of funds to provide aviation facilities for the benefit of aircraft owners and operators. Landing fees are assessed to help offset the cost of operating and maintaining the Airport’s runway, taxiway, and aircraft parking ramp areas. Landing fees are based upon the Certified Maximum Gross Landing Weight (MGLW) of the aircraft multiplied by the Airport Authority’s established landing fee rate per 1,000 pounds of Certified Maximum Gross Landing Weight.

A.4 Commercial Aircraft: The Airport Authority assesses a landing fee on each aircraft landing conducted by an airline or other commercial Air Carrier, operating under FAR Part 121 (airline), Part 129 (international airline), Part 135 (air taxi), or other similar regulation, regardless of the purpose of the landing.

A.5 Signatory Landing Fees: Signatory landing fees are assessed to an airline, or other large (over 75,000 lbs MGLW) commercial aircraft operator having a Signatory Operating Agreement with SCLA. To be eligible for Signatory Operating Agreement status, the operator must have one or more of the following:

Pg.32 of 38

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA LOGISTICS AIRPORT RULES AND REGULATIONS i. A lease with the Airport Authority of a ground site
having at least 10,000 square feet or more that is used to accommodate the organization’s primary base of
business on Airport property.
ii. A lease with the Airport Authority, or an approved
sublease, of a building, or part of a building totaling at least 4,000 square feet that is used as the
organization’s primary base of operations on the
Airport.
iii. Commercial Airlines operating under the military
Civilian Reserve Air Force (CRAF) program.

A.6 Non-Signatory Landing Fees: Non-signatory Landing Fees are assessed at a rate of 125% of the Signatory Landing Fee rate for large commercial operators (over 75,000 lbs MGLW) using the Airport who do not have Signatory Operating Agreement status with the Airport Authority, or have an agreement, but do not meet any of the Signatory eligibility criteria specified in paragraph 2 above. The Non-Signatory Landing Fee is intended to compensate the Airport Authority for the operator’s use of the Airport’s runway and taxiway areas as well as compensation for the privilege of being able to access the airport to conduct business.

A.7 Private Aircraft: The Airport Authority assesses a landing fee on each aircraft landing conducted by large private operators (over 75,000 lbs MGLW) operating under FAR Part 91, or other similar regulation, regardless of the purpose of the landing. Landing fees for private aircraft that are operated under FAR Part 91 and are based at the airport under conditions set forth in a long term agreement with the Authority will be charged landing fees as required by that agreement.

Aircraft Parking Fees:

A8. Signatory Aircraft Parking Fees: Aircraft having Signatory status as defined in A.1 above, are not required to pay parking fees during the time an aircraft is in the loading/ unloading process (24 hour maximum). Signatory Aircraft are also exempt from aircraft parking fees on the weekend, and over national holidays, as long as the weekend/holiday parking occurs in the middle of the loading/unloading process. Signatory Aircraft that are not in the unloading/loading process, and/or use aircraft parking areas in excess of the 24-hour maximum, are required to pay established aircraft parking fees.

A9. Non-Signatory Aircraft: Non-signatory aircraft are required to pay established aircraft parking fees.

Pg.33 of 38

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA LOGISTICS AIRPORT RULES AND REGULATIONS A10. Private Aircraft: All private aircraft (both heavy and light) are required to pay aircraft parking fees. Aircraft that are based at the airport under conditions set forth in a long term agreement with the Authority will be charged parking fees as required by that agreement.

A.11 Aircraft Storage Fees: Aircraft storage fees are charged to aircraft that are stored on areas other than the main parking apron. Fees are payable under one of three different categories: under 50,000 lbs MGTW, narrow body aircraft, and wide body aircraft. Remote aircraft storage is occasioned by the many acres of closed runways and taxiways that make a suitable “hard stand” for aircraft parking. The availability of these areas is directly related to the longevity of these surfaces. As these surfaces fail to be usable for aircraft parking, they will be removed from the inventory of remote parking.

The Airport Authority makes no representation that it will maintain these surfaces and those businesses that store aircraft thereon do so at their own risk.

A.12 Fuel Flowage Fees: A substantial percentage of the fuel dispensed at SCLA is “pre-purchased” by large aircraft operators that enjoy discounts based on the large volumes of fuel these carriers purchase nationally. This pre- purchased fuel is stored in SCLA’s fuel farm to which SCLA assesses a storage fee. SCLA also assesses a flowage fee on each gallon of fuel delivered from the fuel farm to the aircraft.

A.13 Fuel flowage and fuel storage fees reflect the intent of the Airport Authority to generate reasonable revenues for the use of the airport’s fuel storage facility, while at the same time, encouraging aircraft operators to use SCLA as a base of operations.

A.14 All fuel sold at SCLA is subject to the described fuel flowage fees with following exceptions:

1. 2.

3. Non-Signatory Air Cargo Operators: Commercial Air Cargo Operators that are considered Non-Signatory as defined in Section A.1 above and pre-purchase fuel that is stored in the Airport’s fuel farm for use in their aircraft, shall pay flowage fees and storage fees.

Signatory Cargo Operators: Commercial Air Cargo Operators that meet the requirements of Signatory status as defined in Section A.1 above and pre-purchase fuel that is stored in the Airport’s fuel farm for use in their aircraft shall pay the appropriate storage fee.

Non-Commercial Signatory: Based operators (signatory) that are non-commercial (Part 91) will pay the appropriate storage fee and a modified flowage fee as provided in the operators lease agreement.
