AGENDA REPORT
DATE: September 8, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer Crawford, Interim City I pager/ Treasurer Phil White, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: Monthly Treasurer's Report July 2025
RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council receive and file the Monthly Treasurer's Report for July 2025.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

To comply with the requirements of California Government Code Section 53607 and the recommendation of California Government Code Section 53646, a treasurer's report is submitted to the Council monthly.

It is the responsibility of the Finance staff to develop the Monthly Treasurer's Report in a timely manner for review by the City Manager/Treasurer, and ultimately the City Council. It is the function of the Treasurer to deposit and invest funds in accordance with the Investment Policy of the City of Yucaipa to achieve the stated objectives of preservation of capital, liquidity, and return on investment. The purpose of the Monthly Treasurer's Report is to provide the City Council with a snapshot of the City's investment portfolio. The balances included in the Monthly Treasurer' s Report represent the market value of the City's investments.

The City utilizes the Monthly Treasurer's Report as one tool to monitor fiscal performance. The City's net position or fund balance (equity) is comprised of assets less liabilities. The portfolio is just one component of assets. The portfolio balance will fluctuate based on investment performance (yield) as well as the timing of cash inflows (revenue collection) and cash outflows (expenditure payments).

The yield for the investment held with the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) was 4.258% in July.

While the City does not have outstanding debt related to bond issuances, the City acts in a fiduciary capacity for the Successor Agency to the former redevelopment Agency and the Chapman Heights Community Facilities District, both of which maintain outstanding bonds. The City pools cash and investments of all funds, except for assets related to the bond issuances of the Successor Agency and 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
34 Community Facilities District which are required to be held in separate accounts with fiscal agents in accordance with the bond indentures.

As required by the Investment Policy, the attached Monthly Treasurer's Report includes a certification that (1) All investment actions executed since the last report have been made in full compliance with the Investment Policy; and (2) the City will meet its expenditure obligations for the next six months.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The recommendation does not result in a fiscal impact.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: September 8, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Megan Wolfe, Director of Community Services
SUBJECT: 4th of July 2025 Event Wrap-up and Revisiting the 2026 Plan RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council:
1) Receive and file the wrap-up report for July 4, 2025, Celebration & Fireworks Spectacular; and
2) Provide direction to staff regarding next year's 4th of July event.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
4th of July 2025
The 2025 4th of July Firework Show was held at Yucaipa High School on Friday, July 4, 2025, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Event parking was $15 per vehicle and there was no admission fee. The event had 23 merchandise vendors and one food vendor. Outdoor games and activities were available including soccer balls, footballs, baseballs and bats, lawn darts, spike ball, and a life-size Tetris. The event concluded with a grand firework display by PYRO Spectaculars that synchronized with music played live and on KOLA 99.9.

Event costs totaled $50,745, with approximately 90% of the cost attributed to the firework display.

City staff worked closely with the Yucaipa Police Department for traffic control and the Yucaipa Fire Department for permits, fireworks fallout zone safety, and fire prevention. Staff also met with Yucaipa High School staff for facility coordination and Public Works staff for event preparation and supplies. In addition, Yucaipa Police and Fire Departments worked city-wide to reduce the use of illegal fireworks.

To help offset the cost, staff secured community sponsorships. Redlands Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning was the Title Sponsor. Many other organizations also sponsored the event including Sorenson Engineering, Renewal by Anderson, Crafton Hills College, In-N-Out Burger, Burrtec — Yucaipa Disposal, Karla DeGonia with Lois Lauer Realty, Yucaipa Valley Golf Club, CASC Engineering, and Three Peaks Corp. The generosity of these organizations funded $20,356 of the event and we would like to again thank them for their support. Parking and vendors added $10,130 in revenues bringing the total revenues generated to $30,486. This means that the actual net cost of 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
54 the event was $20,259. When compared to the City's FY25 Budget which reflected costs of approximately $55,000 and $0 revenues (net cost of $55,000), the event significantly outperformed budget (by approximately $35,000).
4th of July 2026
These types of special events require lead time to plan. Typically, the lead time can be several months and with 2026 being the nation's 250th anniversary, we anticipate lead times being extended.

However, with the City's focus on delivering a balanced budget in FY26, several special events, including the 4th of July event, were excluded from the FY26 Budget. Accordingly, staff has not started the planning process. However, if the City Council chooses to pivot, there is sufficient time to plan an event.

At the request of the City Council, staff is bringing this item back for discussion.

As stated on the America250 website,
"On July 4, 2026, our nation will commemorate and celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The journey toward this historic milestone is an opportunity to pause and reflect on our nation's past, honor the contributions of all Americans, and look ahead toward the future we want to create for the next generation and beyond." accessed September 1, 2025, https://america250.org/ .

Staff is prepared to plan and execute according to the directive of the City Council. There are many options for events depending on the desired scale of the production, but staff has categorized the following four scenarios to kick start the discussion.
• Option 1— Do not pivot from the adopted budget. Cost $0. • Option 2 - Plan an event similar to the 2025 4th of July event, which provided no entertainment, only charged for parking, saw the largest crowd to date and had the smallest impact to the General Fund. This option would include fireworks and would require City Council to approve expenditures in the amount of $60,000. Historical trends from parking revenue and sponsorships would be used to estimate the offsetting revenues. • Option 3 — Ramp up the production from last year by bringing back live entertainment and more games. This option could include special events and would require City Council to approve expenditures in the amount of $150,000. Historical trends from parking revenue and sponsorships would be used to estimate the offsetting revenues. Additionally, staff could revisit the admission charge.
• Option 4 - Partner with the County of San Bernardino to offer a 4th of July event at the Regional Park and Yucaipa Community Park. This option could offer a drone show in lieu of a firework show. Actual quotes for the drone show have not been received but a rough estimate was in the amount of $90,000. Total costs for this type of production would vary based on the partnership but for discussion purposes could range from $100,000 to $200,000.

Offsetting revenue considerations are similar to the options above. 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
55 FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact is dependent on the direction provided. In any scenario, the projected net cost would be budgeted in the General Fund.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Item No.

FROM: Fermin Preciado, Director of Development Services/City Engineer r Landon Kern, Assistant City Engineer
Daniel Meisenbach, Construction Engineer)i.

SUBJECT: County Line Road Corridor Improvement Project — Status Update 7 RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council receive an update for the County Line Road Corridor Improvement Project.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The County Line Road Corridor Improvement Project (Project) is a joint project between the City of Yucaipa and City of Calimesa that improves County Line Road between Bryant Street and Calimesa Boulevard. The Project included the construction of roundabouts at several intersections and the installation of curb/gutter, sidewalk, driveway approaches, drainage improvements and bike lanes.

Utility relocations and enhancements were also a significant component of the Project.

The construction and construction contract for the Project is being managed by the City of Calimesa in accordance with the executed SB 1 Local Partnership Program (LPP) Grant Funding Agreement between both cities approved by the Yucaipa City Council on October 26, 2020. The Project has been completed. There is some minor utility work remaining to be completed, however both cities are moving forward with the final step in the process and will be repaving the road. The repaving of County Line Road will take place in October and November.

County Line Road is a major arterial street that serves two cities, as well as two counties. As such, County Line Road also serves as a major utility corridor. The following utility companies are completing (or have completed) underground utility work within the Project's limits:
• Southern California Edison (SCE)
• South Mesa Water Company (SMWC)
• Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD)
• Frontier Communications
• Spectrum/Charter Communications
• Southern California Gas Co
• San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency (SGPWA),
• California Department of Water Resources (DWR)
09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
57 City staff coordinated with the City of Calimesa and the various utility agencies listed above to ensure the following occured:
1) The City of Yucaipa and City of Calimesa are updated with the scope of work and schedule for all planned utility work along County Line Road; and
2) The costs for the repaving of County Line Road were determined and agreed upon in advance, to ensure the cities of Yucaipa and Calimesa shared the costs equitably; and 3) Utility agencies performing work along the corridor either complete the required trench/pavement repairs consistent with applicable City standards, or contribute financially towards their fair share of the repaving cost.
4) Utility work schedules were coordinated, planned and permitted by the City of Yucaipa and City of Calimesa.

Additionally, The following list represents several facts and updates on the status of the ongoing utility construction taking place along this corridor:
• The City of Calimesa has an executed construction contract with the contractor and will be closing the contract soon after the contractor completes several minor items. • South Mesa Water Company (SMWC) owns and operates waterlines along the corridor. The replacement of these lines began in the fall of 2024, and was completed in May of 2025.

Pavement repairs associated with the trench construction have been deferred due to the upcoming repaving of the entire street within the limits of the SMWC project. The cities of Yucaipa and Calimesa will continue to work with SMWC to determine the appropriate amount for SMWC to contribute financially to the repaving to address their trenches. • The old existing SMWC waterline located in County Line Road is planned to be rehabilitated and reused. The rehabilitated pipeline will serve as a transmission pipeline for the San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency (SGPWA) and is planned to convey water to a proposed groundwater recharge basin in Calimesa, located west of 3rd Street just south of County Line Road. SGPWA is the lead agency for this project and it was scheduled to be completed by September/October of 2025. Bids were opened on July 23rd and at the August 4th SGPWA Board Meeting, all bids were rejected due to bid irregularities and a bid protest. SGPWA staff was directed to rebid the Project resulting in delays to the project schedule.
• The SGPWA project was rebid, bids were opened on September 3rd, and the award of contract is anticipated to be considered by the SGPWA Board at their September 15th meeting (pending bid results/evaluations). If awarded, construction can occur as early as November/December of this year.
• Due to the SGPWA delay and in an effort to reduce the continued inconvenience to the public, Yucaipa and Calimesa city staff determined that it was best to not wait any longer for utility work to be completed. Both cities decided to proceed with the repaving of County Line Road even though it meant having to trench or cut into a newly paved street to complete additional utility work in the near future.
09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
58 • The City Council awarded a contract to Matich Corporation on August 25th, 2025 for the FY25/26 Pavement Rehabilitation Project. This contract includes repaving the entire width of County Line Road from Bryant Street to Calimesa Boulevard. • Since both cities moved forward with the repaving of County Line Road, SGPWA has re-scoped their project in an effort to minimize trenching and pavement cuts in the newly repaved road.

With a newly repaved road, SGPWA will be required to repave longer and wider sections of roadway where trenching is required and will have to adhere to the more stringent pavement repair standards for newly paved streets as required by both cities. This may include repaving the entire width of the street depending on the size of the trenches and pavement cuts. • The repaving of County Line Road is anticipated to begin in mid -late October. The contract work will take place in segments to minimize impacts associated with temporary closures and detours. The work will also include permanent striping and signage along County Line Road to accommodate the intersection and bike lane improvements.

Additional information and updates will be provided by staff with the presentation of this report.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The recommendation does not result in a fiscal impact.

Matlock, Deputy Director of Community Development/City PlannerXL SUBJECT: Case No. PLN-PDE-25-0002: Consideration of Ordinance No. 450, which adds or modifies 24 different elements of the development code to provide a periodic cleanup and enhancement, including updates to state law, implementing programs of the Housing Element, implementing preliminary economic development and fiscal revenue efforts, enhancing public safety elements, and reflecting longstanding internal procedures and processes.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council:

1. Approve second reading of Ordinance No. 450, as originally introduced and amended by the City Council at the regular meeting of August 11, 2025; OR

2. Approve the introduction and first reading of Ordinance No. 465, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Yucaipa, California, adding Development Code Section 812.19096, Section 812.030143, Chapter 18 (Alcohol Establishments), Chapter 19 (Massage Therapy Establishments) and Chapter 13 (Landscape Regulations), and amending Development Code Sections 83.030105, 83.030305, 83.040110, 84.0335, 84.0330, 87.0630, 84.0905, 83.041120 and 83.030225, and Chapter 2 (Multiple Residential Design Standards) of Division 8 (Specific Use Design Standards), Chapter 4 (Height Regulations) of Division 7 (General Design Standards), and Article 1 (Fire Safety (FR) Overlay District) of Chapter 2 (Hazard Protection) of Division 5 (Overlay Districts) as part of a periodic code requirement cleanup and enhancement.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

On August 11, 2025, the City Council conducted a public hearing regarding Ordinance No. 450, which would add or modify up to 24 different sections of the City's Development Code as part of a generalized cleanup of various sections. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council voted to remove the following sections from the Ordinance:
09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
60 • Section 3 — Formal revocation procedures for land use entitlements • Section 4 — Amendments to Land Use Compliance Review list • Section 5 — A zoning clearance process for new businesses that replaces the annual business license
• Section 15 — Sign Regulations Intent
• Section 16 — Sign Encroachments
• Section 17 — Prohibited sign details to address public safety • Section 18 — City controlled billboard provisions
• Section 22 — Automatic withdraw of inactive projects
However, as various sections of the City's Development Code can be intertwined and referenced with other sections similar to other pieces of legislation, the removal of the above sections created inconsistencies and/or invalid references with other sections of the code. To ensure that Council's policy direction is accurately implemented, two recommendations regarding the proposed Ordinance No. 450 are being presented, one that follows the City Council's exact motion from the public hearing, and one recommendation that would introduce Ordinance No. 465 for first reading that takes the modified Ordinance No. 450, but with minor amendments that correct the inconsistencies and/or invalid references. Those corrections are included in the attached redline which compares the August 11, 2025, ordinance as amended by the City Council to staff's proposed alternative, and consists of the following:
• Removal of all references to a revocation process for massage therapy establishments that violate the Development Code.
• Removal of all references to a revocation process for certain off sale alcohol establishments that violate the Development Code.

Both ordinances also made the necessary revisions to Section 4 which addressed amendments to Land Use Compliance Review list to ensure that those references remain intact. Specifically, the following elements were retained:
• 10-unit residential projects are subject to a Land Use Compliance Review, consistent with state law.
• A mixed -use development in authorized areas of the RM-24 district can be processed with a Land Use Compliance Review, consistent with the residential development approval.

The following elements from Section 4 were not included based on Council direction:
• Clarity that only freestanding and monument signs were subject to a Land Use Compliance Review.
• Streamlined approval processes for previously entitled projects that had recently expired. • Clarity on the review process for Congregate Living Health Facilities • Clarity on the number of units that can be expanded on an existing multiple family project through the Land Use Compliance Review.

Such structures and/or roofs shall be entirely retrofitted to comply with the provisions of this section.

85.020215 Division of Review Areas.

The Fire Safety Overlay District is divided into twethree review areas, each of which represents a different level of wildland hazard. A different set of requirements is applied in each review area.

The provisions for these requirements are cumulative in that all of the requirements that are specified for Fire Safety Review Area 2 shall also apply to Fire Safety Review Area 1, in addition to those specified for only Fire Safety Review Area 1, and similarly for Fire Safety Review Area

3. (a) Fire Safety Review Area 1 (FR1)
Fire Safety Review Area 1 includes wildland areas that are marginally developable, areas which are not likely to be developed, and the area of transition between wildlands and areas that are partially developed or are likely to be developed in the future. The area of transition is often characterized by an abrupt slope change. Natural hazards are prevalent throughout Area 1, especially in areas with natural ungraded slops greater than 30%. Area 1 includes areas of very high to extreme fire hazard.
(b) Fire Safety Review Area 2 (FR2)
Land within Area 2 is relatively flat and is either partially or completely developed, or, if it is not developed, is usually suitable for development. Present and future development within Area 2 is exposed to the impacts of wildland fires and other natural hazards primarily due to its proximity to Area 1.
(c) Fire Safety Review Area 3 (FR3)
Land within Area 3 provides for the transition from the wildlands areas of FR1 and FR2 to the developed portions of the City and this Area is often developed. Present and future development within Area 3 is exposed to the impacts of wildland fires and other natural hazards that would come from Area 1 and extend past :%rea 2.

85.020220 Area FR1,-and FR2 and FR3 Requirements.
(a) Construction Requirements
(1) Roof coverings shall be either non-combustible or fire -retardant with a minimum Class A rating, as defined in the Uniform Building Code.

(9) Structures in areas with slopes exceeding 30% and 30 feet in height shall comply with the following.
(A) Where structures are proposed or within 200 feet of slopes that are greater than 30% prior to grading and where such slopes are at least 30 feet in height, the vegetation on such slopes shall be treated in such a manner that it becomes a fuel modified area. Such fuel modified areas shall be maintained for either the entire slope, or 100 feet, or to the property line, whichever distance is less.
(B) Where grading is utilized which does not conform to the natural slope and the graded area is adjacent to natural ungraded slopes which are greater than 30% and which are greater than 30 feet in height, structures shall be set back at least 30 feet from the edge(s) of the graded area adjacent to such natural ungraded slopes.
(10) All areas used for the storage of firewood or other flammable materials shall either be at least 30 feet away from all structures, or wholly enclosed within a structure.

102

requirement shall be waived if the fire authority determines that the water source is sufficiently below the elevation of existing or proposed roads or driveways to make drafting of water from the source through a plumbed outlet infeasible, and that direct vehicular access to the water source would require an impractical extension of a road or driveway.
(b) Building Separations.
(1) Building Separation Standards.
(A) All buildings on parcels created after the effective date of this section and all other parcels with lot widths of 60 feet or greater shall have exterior wall separations of at least 30 feet.
(B) All buildings on parcels created prior to the effective date of this section with lot widths less than 60 feet shall have interior side yard setbacks of 20% of the lot width, provided that such interior side yards shall not be less than five feet and need not exceed 15 feet. In no case shall exterior wall separations be less than 10 feet for all buildings, including those on adjoining parcels.
(C) When exterior walls of residential and accessory buildings or portions thereof are within 15 feet of interior side or rear lot lines, or the exterior wall separation is less than 30 feet, the following shall apply: 1) the outside of all such exterior walls or portions thereof shall be covered with materials which are approved for exterior locations and are of fire -resistive construction as defined in the Uniform Building Code; 2) all exterior doors made of wood or wood portions shall be solid core wood; and 3) windows, sliding glass doors or glass inserts in doors shall be constructed of approved dual -pane glass.
(2) Intent of Standards
The intent of the exterior wall separation standards is to reduce the exposure and risk from adjacent structural fires and to reduce the potential spread of fire from structure to structure.
(3) Alternate Measures (Exterior Wall Separation)
Pursuant to Section 85.020230 of this section and dependent upon site specific conditions, the following measures or combinations thereof may be substituted for the exterior wall separation requirements for all buildings specified in Subsection 85.020220(b)(1)(A) above, provided that in no case shall such exterior wall separations be less than 10 feet.
(A) The expansion of fuel modified areas around the perimeter of the development project beyond that required through the provisions of this section or other parts of the City Code
(B) A substantial transfer of density from steeper slopes, including areas with slopes less than 30% if they exist on site, to less steep areas within the development project
(C) Clustering of structures away from the development perimeter and away from fire hazard areas
(D) The provisions of more fire -resistive construction standards than normally required through the provisions of the Fire Safety (FR) Overlay 40 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
103

District and otherwise required through the Uniform Building Code or Uniform Fire Code
(E) Other altemate measures if approved by the Planning Agency pursuant to the provisions of Section 85.020230 of this Article
(c) Project Design Requirements
(1) All development projects and each phase thereof, except for a development project located exclusively on a cul-de-sac, shall have a minimum of two points of vehicular ingress and egress, designed to City road standards, with a minimum width of 26 feet of all weather surface as defined in the Uniform Fire Code, from existing and surrounding streets. One such point of vehicular access may be an emergency access route with an all-weather surface, if the Planning Agency makes and justifies all of the following findings.
(A) Two points of non -emergency access shall be physically infeasible. (B) Provisions shall be made to reasonably ensure that the emergency access will be maintained.
(C) Based on the review and consideration of the Fire Authority's recommendation, the emergency access route will provide adequate vehicular ingress and egress during emergencies.
(2) All development projects shall provide 6-inch or larger circulating (loop) water mains as required by the Uniform Fire Code and proper hydrant location and spacing, and shall have sufficient water storage capacity to provide the minimum fire flow duration requirements (gallons per minute [GPM] for a minimum number of hours or portions thereof) as specified by the minimum system standards established by the Fire Authority. Circulating (loop) mains are not required for cul- de-sacs and are not required for subdivisions that exclusively take all access from cul-de-sacs. In areas not served by water purveyors, on -site fire flow and water storage requirements will be as specified by the Uniform Fire Code. (3) All public or private streets within or bordering a development project shall have noncombustible and reflective street name signs designed to City standards and visible at all street intersections.
(4) Fuel Modification Areas
(A) A permanent fuel modification area may be required around development projects or portions thereof that are adjacent or exposed to hazardous fire areas for the purpose of fire protection. The recommended width of the fuel modification area shall be determined by the responsible Fire Authority in conjunction with the County Fire Warden, but in no case shall it be less than 100 feet in width as measured from the development perimeter. The width of the fuel modification area shall be determined based upon the following factors.
(I) The natural ungraded slope of the land within the project and in the areas adjacent to the project
(II) Fuel Loading
(III) Access to the project and direct access to the fuel -modified area
41 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
104

(IV) The on -site availability of water that can be used for fire fighting purposes
(V) Adequate provisions shall be made for the continual maintenance of such areas and, where feasible, such areas shall be designated as common open space rather than private open space. (VI) Fuel modification areas shall also incorporate soil erosion and sediment control measures to alleviate permanent scarring and accelerated erosion.
(B) When development projects are phased, individual phases may be required to provide temporary fuel modification areas where the development perimeter of a phase is contiguous to a subsequent phase of a project which in its undeveloped state is a hazardous fire area. The need for a temporary fuel modification area shall be determined by the responsible fire authority in conjunction with the County Fire Warden and shall be based upon the same considerations described in Subsection (c)(4)(A) of this section for permanent fuel modification areas.
(d) Erosion and Sediment Control
All development projects, building permits, grading and any other significant land disturbing activity shall install erosion control measures in compliance with the provisions established by the Development Code for such erosion control measures.

SECTION 270. CEQA.

The City Council finds that this Ordinance does not directly result in the development of any parcel of land does not directly result in the development of any parcel of land but instead modifies the development standards to either: 1) comply with current state law requirements, 2) implement existing policies and procedures, 3) add clarity to existing requirements and/or, 4) Adds flexibility to standards to achieve economic development or public safety goals. An Addendum to the 2016 Yucaipa General Plan Environmental Impact Report that addresses the changes proposed by the 42 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
105

Ordinance has been prepared and requires a recommendation from the Planning Commission as part of the adoption of Ordinance No. 450. This Addendum was prepared pursuant to Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines. The analysis contained in the addendum demonstrates that the conditions described in Section 15162 of the Guidelines that call for preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR have not been met, and therefore a subsequent or supplemental EIR is not required, and that the adoption of the Ordinance would not result in impacts not originally analyzed in the 2016 General Plan EIR.

SECTION 281. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall be effective the 31st day following its adoption by the City Council
SECTION 292. Publication and Posting. The Mayor shall sign this Ordinance and the City Clerk shall certify as to the adoption and shall cause the ordinance or a summary thereof to be published in accordance with state law.

144

(f) When an addition, alteration, enlargement or reconstruction of a structure equals or exceeds 50% of the existing structure or 25% of the roof for the roofing requirements only, the provisions of Subsections 85.020220(a)(b)(1)(C) and 85.020225(a) regarding construction requirements shall apply to the entire structure and/or the whole roof as applicable. Such structures and/or roofs shall be entirely retrofitted to comply with the provisions of this section.

85.020215 Division of Review Areas.

The Fire Safety Overlay District is divided into twethree review areas, each of which represents a different level of wildland hazard. A different set of requirements is applied in each review area.

The provisions for these requirements are cumulative in that all of the requirements that are specified for Fire Safety Review Area 2 shall also apply to Fire Safety Review Area 1, in addition to those specified for only Fire Safety Review Area 1, and similarly for Fire Safety Review Area

3. (a) Fire Safety Review Area 1 (FR1)
Fire Safety Review Area 1 includes wildland areas that are marginally developable, areas which are not likely to be developed, and the area of transition between wildlands and areas that are partially developed or are likely to be developed in the future. The area of transition is often characterized by an abrupt slope change. Natural hazards are prevalent throughout Area 1, especially in areas with natural ungraded slops greater than 30%. Area 1 includes areas of very high to extreme fire hazard.
(b) Fire Safety Review Area 2 (FR2)
Land within Area 2 is relatively flat and is either partially or completely developed, or, if it is not developed, is usually suitable for development. Present and future development within Area 2 is exposed to the impacts of wildland fires and other natural hazards primarily due to its proximity to Area 1.
(c) Fire Safety Review Area 3 (FR3)
Land within Area 3 provides for the transition from the wildlands areas of FR1 and FR2 to the developed portions of the City and this Area is often developed. Present and future development within Area 3 is exposed to the impacts of wildland fires and other natural hazards that would come from Area 1 and extend past Area 2.

85.020220 Area FR1,-and FR2 and FR3 Requirements.
(a) Construction Requirements
(1) Roof coverings shall be either non-combustible or fire -retardant with a minimum Class A rating, as defined in the Uniform Building Code. Class A wood shake or shingle roof coverings shall have passed a 10-year natural weathering test, and proof of such test shall be provided to the Building Official prior to the issuance of a building permit.

(3) Louvers, ventilators, or openings in walls, roofs, attics, and underfloor areas having headroom less than four feet in height which are not fitted with sashes or doors shall be covered with wire screen. The screen covering such openings shall be of galvanized metal or copper and shall have a maximum mesh of one -quarter (1/4) inch.
(4) Eave-type attic ventilators are prohibited.
(5) The space between rafters at exterior walls shall be solidly filled with tight- fitting wood blocks at least one and one-half (1 1/2) inches thick. (6) Fuel tanks (e.g., liquefied petroleum tanks) shall be located at least 10 feet away from any structure and in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code, the Table of Projections, and the Storage Standards specified by Fire Hazard Performance Standards in Chapters 5 and 9 in Division 7 of this Title. (7) All non -accessory buildings shall have reflective and non-combustible building address numbers with at least three-inch high lettering visible from the road on which the structure fronts.
(8) All buildings on lots which abut a National Forest that were created after March 9, 1988 shall be set back at least 30 feet from the boundary of the San Bernardino National Forest.
(9) Structures in areas with slopes exceeding 30% and 30 feet in height shall comply with the following.
(A) Where structures are proposed or within 200 feet of slopes that are greater than 30% prior to grading and where such slopes are at least 30 feet in height, the vegetation on such slopes shall be treated in such a manner that it becomes a fuel modified area. Such fuel modified areas shall be maintained for either the entire slope, or 100 feet, or to the property line, whichever distance is less.
(B) Where grading is utilized which does not conform to the natural slope and the graded area is adjacent to natural ungraded slopes which are greater than 30% and which are greater than 30 feet in height, structures shall be set back at least 30 feet from the edge(s) of the graded area adjacent to such natural ungraded slopes.
(10) All areas used for the storage of firewood or other flammable materials shall either be at least 30 feet away from all structures, or wholly enclosed within a structure.
(11) Fire hydrants shall be identified by a method specified by the Fire Authority. (12) There shall be vehicular access at least 12 feet in width to within at least 10 feet of any static water source including pools, lakes, swimming pools, reservoirs, and water storage tanks.

146

requirement shall be waived if the fire authority determines that the water source is sufficiently below the elevation of existing or proposed roads or driveways to make drafting of water from the source through a plumbed outlet infeasible, and that direct vehicular access to the water source would require an impractical extension of a road or driveway.
(b) Building Separations.
(1) Building Separation Standards.
(A) All buildings on parcels created after the effective date of this section and all other parcels with lot widths of 60 feet or greater shall have exterior wall separations of at least 30 feet.
(B) All buildings on parcels created prior to the effective date of this section with lot widths less than 60 feet shall have interior side yard setbacks of 20% of the lot width, provided that such interior side yards shall not be less than five feet and need not exceed 15 feet. In no case shall exterior wall separations be less than 10 feet for all buildings, including those on adjoining parcels.
(C) When exterior walls of residential and accessory buildings or portions thereof are within 15 feet of interior side or rear lot lines, or the exterior wall separation is less than 30 feet, the following shall apply: 1) the outside of all such exterior walls or portions thereof shall be covered with materials which are approved for exterior locations and are of fire -resistive construction as defined in the Uniform Building Code; 2) all exterior doors made of wood or wood portions shall be solid core wood; and 3) windows, sliding glass doors or glass inserts in doors shall be constructed of approved dual -pane glass.
(2) Intent of Standards
The intent of the exterior wall separation standards is to reduce the exposure and risk from adjacent structural fires and to reduce the potential spread of fire from structure to structure.
(3) Alternate Measures (Exterior Wall Separation)
Pursuant to Section 85.020230 of this section and dependent upon site specific conditions, the following measures or combinations thereof may be substituted for the exterior wall separation requirements for all buildings specified in Subsection 85.020220(b)(1)(A) above, provided that in no case shall such exterior wall separations be less than 10 feet.
(A) The expansion of fuel modified areas around the perimeter of the development project beyond that required through the provisions of this section or other parts of the City Code
(B) A substantial transfer of density from steeper slopes, including areas with slopes less than 30% if they exist on site, to less steep areas within the development project
(C) Clustering of structures away from the development perimeter and away from fire hazard areas
(D) The provisions of more fire -resistive construction standards than normally required through the provisions of the Fire Safety (FR) Overlay 40 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
147

District and otherwise required through the Uniform Building Code or Uniform Fire Code
(E) Other alternate measures if approved by the Planning Agency pursuant to the provisions of Section 85.020230 of this Article
(c) Project Design Requirements
(1) All development projects and each phase thereof, except for a development project located exclusively on a cul-de-sac, shall have a minimum of two points of vehicular ingress and egress, designed to City road standards, with a minimum width of 26 feet of all weather surface as defined in the Uniform Fire Code, from existing and surrounding streets. One such point of vehicular access may be an emergency access route with an all-weather surface, if the Planning Agency makes and justifies all of the following findings.
(A) Two points of non -emergency access shall be physically infeasible. (B) Provisions shall be made to reasonably ensure that the emergency access will be maintained.
(C) Based on the review and consideration of the Fire Authority's recommendation, the emergency access route will provide adequate vehicular ingress and egress during emergencies.
(2) All development projects shall provide 6-inch or larger circulating (loop) water mains as required by the Uniform Fire Code and proper hydrant location and spacing, and shall have sufficient water storage capacity to provide the minimum fire flow duration requirements (gallons per minute [GPM] for a minimum number of hours or portions thereof) as specified by the minimum system standards established by the Fire Authority. Circulating (loop) mains are not required for cul- de-sacs and are not required for subdivisions that exclusively take all access from cul-de-sacs. In areas not served by water purveyors, on -site fire flow and water storage requirements will be as specified by the Uniform Fire Code. (3) All public or private streets within or bordering a development project shall have noncombustible and reflective street name signs designed to City standards and visible at all street intersections.
(4) Fuel Modification Areas
(A) A permanent fuel modification area may be required around development projects or portions thereof that are adjacent or exposed to hazardous fire areas for the purpose of fire protection. The recommended width of the fuel modification area shall be determined by the responsible Fire Authority in conjunction with the County Fire Warden, but in no case shall it be less than 100 feet in width as measured from the development perimeter. The width of the fuel modification area shall be determined based upon the following factors.
(I) The natural ungraded slope of the land within the project and in the areas adjacent to the project
(II) Fuel Loading
(III) Access to the project and direct access to the fuel -modified area
41 09/08/2025 City Council Agenda
148

(IV) The on -site availability of water that can be used for fire fighting purposes
(V) Adequate provisions shall be made for the continual maintenance of such areas and, where feasible, such areas shall be designated as common open space rather than private open space. (VI) Fuel modification areas shall also incorporate soil erosion and sediment control measures to alleviate permanent scarring and accelerated erosion.
(B) When development projects are phased, individual phases may be required to provide temporary fuel modification areas where the development perimeter of a phase is contiguous to a subsequent phase of a project which in its undeveloped state is a hazardous fire area. The need for a temporary fuel modification area shall be determined by the responsible fire authority in conjunction with the County Fire Warden and shall be based upon the same considerations described in Subsection (c)(4)(A) of this section for permanent fuel modification areas.
(d) Erosion and Sediment Control
All development projects, building permits, grading and any other significant land disturbing activity shall install erosion control measures in compliance with the provisions established by the Development Code for such erosion control measures.

85.020225 Additional Area 1 (FR1) Requirements.

The following requirements apply only to Area 1, in addition to those specified for both Areas 1 and 2.
