CITY COUNCIL STUDY SESSION aw
JUNE 16, 2009 DRAF I
STUDY SESSION: M/Everett called the Study Session to order at 6:10
p.m. in Room CC -8 of the South Coast Air Quality Management District/Government
Center, 21865 Copley Dr., Diamond Bar, CA.
Present: Council Member Chang, Tanaka, Tye, Mayor Pro
Tem Herrera, Mayor Everett
Staff Present: James DeStefano, City Manager; David Doyle,
Assistant City Manager; Michael Jenkins, City Attorney; Bob Rose, Community Services
Director; Anthony Jordan, Parks and Maintenance Superintendent; David Liu, Public
Works Director; Linda Magnuson, Finance Director; Greg Gubman, Acting Community
Development Director; Ryan McLean, Assistant to the City Manager; Ken Desforges, IS
Director; Marsha Roa, Public Information Manager and Tommye Cribbins, City Clerk.
Also Present: Bob Moxley, Product Representative with CalSense.
► CENTRALIZED IRRIGATION CONTROL SYSTEM
CSD/Rose introduced Bob Moxley, Product Representative, CALSENSE.
CSD/Rose stated that D.B. has an opportunity to put in a centralized irrigation
control system that would control the majority of the irrigation controllers in D.B.
The Metropolitan Water District had a grant program available about a year ago
and the City was funded about $166,000 for the system. In addition, Walnut
Valley Water District is offering 25% in matching funds to help with the labor.
The cost of the entire system is about $576,000. At this time the City pays
approximately $310,000 per year for water. Water rates are supposed to be
going up and each district has its own percentage of increases. There are water
conservation options for D.B. including removal of the turf on the medians and
replacement with landscaping materials similar to what's on Grand Ave. To
remove all of the herb and replace it with that type of landscaping throughout
D.B. is about $1 million; remove turf and replace with artificial turf ($3-3.5 million
for all medians only). The Centralized Irrigation Control System would save the
City approximately 30% of water use. The current irrigation system could also be
retrofitted to provide greater water efficiency. There are also subterranean
systems that tend to keep the water on the medians better than the overhead
systems; however, it is a little harder to maintain. The cost to retrofit the system
would be approximately $1 million.
CSD/Rose then gave a Power Point presentation on how the system works and
the cost benefits of the Centralized Irrigation Control System. If however, the
City decides it does not want to proceed with the System, the grant money will
have to be returned.
MPT/Herrera felt that a 32% water usage savings was impressive and asked if
the turf would need to be changed.
JUNE 16, 2009 PAGE 2 CC STUDY SESSION
CSD/Rose responded that this system would only change the controller or add a
pump on the controller for tighter control. There would be no replacement of the
current median landscaping.
C/Chang agreed that it would be a good system because residents frequently
complain about the amount of water that is on the streets.
C/Tye asked if it would make sense to install centralized system and retrofit the
system.
CSD/Rose felt it would make sense to change out some of the head nozzles with
more efficient turf head nozzles.
Mr. Moxley spoke about his company and its expertise in making sure that the
installation resulted in the designated water usage savings.
CM/DeStefano stated that Mr. Rose believes that 32% is a real number and that
even if it is 25% it would only take 4.7 years for D.B. to get its full return on
investment and therefore he is confident in Mr. Rose's assessment.
Council unanimously concurred and directed staff to move forward with the
system.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: None Offered.
ADJOURNMENT: With no further business to discuss, M/Everett adjourned the
Study Session at 6:31 p.m.

JUNE 16, 2009 PAGE 2 CITY COUNCIL
APPROVAL OF AGENDA: CA/Jenkins reported that the State of California
is considering various measures to balance the State budget including borrowing
involuntarily money that is due to the City of D.B. and other municipalities and/or
outright confiscation of money that is constitutionally due cities. Within the past 72
hours after the agenda was posted staff received a request from the League of
California Cities to place on tonight's agenda a resolution authorizing cooperation with
the League relative to potential litigation against the State for the State's possible
confiscation of what are called "gas tax funds" which are monies the cities believe are
constitutionally restricted to be given to cities and counties for use for street
maintenance. Consequently, there is an immediate need for the City Council to
consider taking action tonight to send this message to the State due to the quickly
moving budget situation. This resolution requires a four fifths (4/5) vote of the Council
to make a finding that there is need for immediate action and to add the item to the
agenda under Consent Calendar Item 6.4.
C/Chang moved, MPT/Herrera seconded, to add consideration of an emergency
resolution under Consent Calendar Item 6.4. Motion carried by the following Roll Call
vote:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Chang, Tanaka, Tye, MPT/Herrera
M/Everett
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: None
ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: None
1. SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS, CERTIFICATES, PROCLAMATIONS:
NEW BUSINESS OF THE MONTH:
1.1 Mayor Everett presented a Certificate Plaque to Jo Chu, co-owner, Palk's
Bonga Restaurant, as New Business of the Month for June 2009.
2. CITY MANAGER REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
CM/DeStefano reported that from time to time staff has provided updates
regarding a desire to incorporate three zip codes into the primary 91765 zip
code within the City. In March 2009 this issue was discussed with
representatives in Washington, D.C. and again more recently with field
representatives with Senator Diane Feinstein's and Congressman Miller's
offices. Staff recently drafted a letter seeking additional assistance and
learned that Dodger Stadium had been allocated a unique zip code number. To
staff's knowledge, no one lives in Dodger Stadium and further, staff
believes that Dodger Stadium is comprised of one business. Staff is using this
information as evidence of possible abuse of the program. There are
approximately 4000 addresses in the 91789 area and staff believes it is time for
proper intervention to resolve this issue. In March staff met with
Congressman Dreier's staff and discussed recent zip code changes in Bradbury
JUNE 16, 2009 PAGE 3 CITY COUNCIL
and Placentia that resolved similar issues. Since the time that Congressman
Dreier was involved in getting zip codes changed new rules have been
implemented by the Federal Government to stop these kinds of changes. Staff
continues to push for this resolution and will continue to update Council as
warranted.
C/Tye said he appreciated staff's pursuit of the issue.
CM/DeStefano stated that staff has no problem working with Congressman
Miller's office and only wrote to him to outline the problem of the Dodger Stadium
issue. There are numerous concerns including mail delivery, UPS delivery,
FedEx delivery and more importantly, sales tax delivery to the City which require
daily effort and money is spent to chase those dollars. Staff is hoping for an
imminent resolution.
3. PUBLIC COMMENTS:
Heidi Gallegos, Executive Director, San Gabriel Valley Regional Chamber of
Commerce, congratulated Mr. Chu and Paik's Bonga Restaurant. She concurred
with CM/DeStefano's frustration over the multiple zip codes in D.B. because it is
frustrating to advocate for support of local businesses and offered her
support in the effort. Ms. Gallegos indicated she was before Council this evening
on behalf of the Board of Directors and members of the D.B. business community
to express appreciation for the anticipated extension of the City of D.B. Regional
Chamber Consulting Services Contract (Consent Calendar Item 6.4 (d)). She
addressed the numerous accomplishments of the Chamber as well as the
support of local business professionals. She thanked the Council for their time
and anticipated support of the consulting services agreement.
John Martin, 1249 S. Diamond Bar Blvd. #148, spoke in opposition to Consent
Calendar Item 6.5(c). In his opinion, Excel Landscaping has not followed the
City's specifications regarding Landscape Maintenance District #38, 39 and 41
which he outlined in detail. Further, he felt that Excel should reimburse the City
for what they have not done.
4. RESPONSE TO PUBLIC COMMENTS:
CM/DeStefano stated that staff has enjoyed another year of successful
collaboration with the Chamber of Commerce at a variety of events and working
together on a regular basis and looks forward to working with the Chamber
throughout the next budget year.
CSD/Rose responding to Mr. Martin's comments regarding the City's medians
stated that staff shares Mr. Martin's interest in the quality of work provided and
that staff believes that Excel Landscaping provides a quality cost-effective
service to the community. Excel has performed services in a variety of areas of
the City since 2002 and as the City Council may recall, in 2007 Excel took over
JUNE 16, 2009 PAGE 4 CITY COUNCIL
5
maintenance of the district when TruGreen was seeking a 27% increase in their
contract ($70,000 per year more for the same work). Excel included in their
contract to maintain the medians at the level at which they had been maintained.
Mr. Martin specifically mentioned mowing, over seeding, fertilization, weed
control and tree maintenance, all of which are being performed in what staff
considers a good quality manner. Although there are always issues that need to
be dealt with staff believes there are no significant ongoing problems with the
medians. PMS/Jordan meets with the area supervisor for Excel on a weekly
basis as well as, communicates daily or as necessary to deal with any and all
issues. Staff certainly does not believe that Excel is receiving any type of
windfall from this contract. Staff routinely checks with other cities with respect to
the level of service and costs and in some cases D.B.'s prices are so good that
the City is not included in regional surveys. Further, staff does not believe it is in
the best financial interest of D.B. to add additional employees to do the
landscape maintenance work. Staff recommends that the City Council award the
contract to Excel Landscaping for the three Lighting and Landscape Maintenance
Districts.

7.2 ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 2009-30: APPROVING REMOVAL OF THE
NORTHERLY CROSSWALK AT DIAMOND BAR BOULEVARD AND
MOUNTAIN LAUREL WAY.
SE/Yee reported that this arterial location receives a significant amount of
traffic during the peak a.m. and p.m. school hours. Much of the a.m, traffic
occurs from vehicles traveling southbound on Diamond Bar Blvd.
attempting to turn right onto Mountain Laurel with the p.m. traffic reversing
the pattern. As a result, congestion is created along both roadways when
vehicles are forced to yield to pedestrians traversing the north leg of the
crosswalk. Consequently, the heavy volume of traffic makes it difficult for
pedestrians to cross at the north crosswalk. Removal of the northerly
crosswalk would isolate all of the pedestrian movement to the south and
west for students crossing to get to Chaparral Middle School. City staff,
the Sheriff's Department and the City's Traffic Consultant have concluded,
after several months of evaluation, that removal of the northerly crosswalk
would improve traffic flow and pedestrian circulation. In February 2009
the Traffic and Transportation Commission concurred with the findings
and recommendation. During the February Commission meeting Principal
Chavez, Chaparral Middle School expressed his support for the removal.
During the first week of June notification letters regarding tonight's public
hearing were sent to residents within a 500 ft. radius as well as, Chaparral
Middle School and Walnut Valley Unified School District. A public notice
was posted at the intersection of Diamond Bar Blvd. and Mountain Laurel
Way. Upon Council approval, staff will schedule removal for July 2009, by
completely removing the crosswalk markings and installing a new
pedestrian barricade at the removal location. Pedestrian push buttons
and walk/do not walk signs will be removed and new signage will be
added to the location.
SE/Yee explained to C/Tye that all students will be channeled to the south
side and west side for crossing.
M/Everett opened the Public Hearing.
There was no one present who wished to speak on this item.
M/Everett asked if parents were notified.
SE/Yee responded that staff has been communicating with school officials
and with the school principal. Staff understands that the school officials
have communicated with the parents.
M/Everett asked if staff received any comments from any residents
regarding this item.
JUNE 16, 2009 PAGE 12 CITY COUNCIL
SE/Yee responded that no written or verbal communication has been
received by staff.
M/Everett asked SE/Yee to point out on the exhibit where notification was
posted.
SE/Yee pointed out that signage was placed on the northwest corner.
M/Everett said there are 30 -days left for the comment period.
SE/Yee agreed and reiterated that staff will not initiate any work until 30 -
days from tonight's determination.
C/Chang moved, MPT/Herrera seconded, to Adopt Resolution No. 2009-

C/Tanaka reported that he had attended the Good Care Adult Day Healthcare
Center First Anniversary celebration; D.B.H.S. graduation; the 2009 International
Taekwondo Festival at the Industry Expo Center; D.B. Chinese-American
Association's Annual Fundraising Dinner; the 4th Annual American Cancer
Society D.B. Relay for Life; Pacific Crest Sneak Preview and Fundraiser at Los
Altos High School; and, the D.B. Seniors Father's Day luncheon. He wished all
fathers a Happy Fathers' Day.
C/Chang congratulated this year' high school and college graduates and wished
them success in their future ventures. He hoped everyone would join in the 4th of
July celebration and hoped the residents would enjoy the summer and be safe.
C/Tye spoke about D.B.'s status as a "contract city' and how it has benefited
D.B. financially. D.B. has a mean and lean staff and gets more than its money's
worth under the contract cities business model. He attended the Los Angeles
Division of the League of Cities meeting during which State Controller John
Chung delivered a very sobering assessment of what is happening at the State
level. Attending the 19th Annual D.B. Chinese-American Association Gala
reminded him how D.B. is a very generous community. The Relay for Life was
also an expression of the generous spirit of the community and support for those
JUNE 16, 2009 PAGE 13 CITY COUNCIL
struggling with cancer and hoped residents would join in the 4th of July Blast at
D.B.H.S. He wished graduating seniors the best in their future endeavors.
MPT/Herrera echoed C/Tye's remarks about D.B. being a contract City and that it
is a good business model. Other cities that have hundreds of employees are
having very difficult times in this current economic climate. D.B. is not in a
situation of having to make decisions to lay off employees. D.B. is very prudent
about how it does business and many of the residents compliment the Council on
how careful and prudent the City conducts business on behalf of its residents. It
bodes well for the City and the City's future. She congratulated and thanked staff
for always looking for ways to stretch the City's dollars and pointed out that
employees continue to apply for grants to enhance City services. She applauded
D.B. for being on the ball and applying to AQMD for two electric vehicles. AQMD
serves a lot of cities and conducted a lottery system for these vehicles. D.B. got
its application in quickly and was lucky to be selected to receive two electric
vehicles that the City can lease for $240 a year which is incredible. She thanked
staff for being on the ball with its application and congratulations for receiving the
vehicles. She reported that CEO Rick Richmond, Alameda Corridor East
Construction Authority received a prestigious award from the Los Angeles
Chapter of the American Counsel of Engineering Companies of California, the
2009 Engineering Achievement Award. Alameda Corridor East constructed the
grade separation at Brea Canyon Road which eliminates the train blowing its
horn at the overpass, increases safety at the intersection and decreases pollution
because cars do not have to stop and idle waiting for the train to pass. This
project was a win-win project for all involved. She requested that the City
Council present Mr. Richmond with a plaque honoring his achievements and
would be pleased to attend the next Alameda Corridor East meeting to present
the plaque to him.
M/Everett said that in addition to the City's recognition and acknowledgement of
school graduates, some school district employees are retiring and they too are to
be honored for their service to the community. He enjoys the amenities of senior
activities and other programs in the City as well as volunteerism. He followed up
on the very serious water issue by having General Manager Mike Holmes from
the Walnut Valley Water District talk to the City in very direct and thoughtful
language. He attended Supervisor Don Knabe's Los Angeles County Water
Summit and Symposium and was again reminded about the seriousness of the
water situation. He attended Abacus and Mental Arithmetic Contest where
students demonstrated great skills. He also attended the Taekwondo event
where participants demonstrated great skill, character, respect, focus and
attention. He was in Tonner Canyon with CM/DeStefano and the media to
observe one of three days of fire fighting drills. He hoped everyone would have
an enjoyable summer and would join with the City for the 4th of July celebration.
ADJOURNMENT: With no further business to conduct, M/Everett adjourned the

STUDY SESSION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
APRIL 28, 2009
CALL TO ORDER:
Chairman Torng called the Study Session to order at 6:05 p.m. in Room CC -8 of the South
Coast Air Quality Management District/Government Center, 21865 Copley Drive, Diamond
Bar, CA 91765.

Also present: Greg Gubman, Acting Community Development Director; Brad
Wohlenberg, Assistant City Attorney; John Douglas, Consultant, Natalie Tobon,

ON. Draft Housing Element
ACDD/Gubman reminded the Commission that this follow up Housing Element
Study Session was a third in a series that began about a year ago on May 13 and
May 27, 2008, to get an overview of the requirements of what was required by cities
to prepare a Housing Element on a six-year cycle. After receiving the Planning
Commission's input, the City Council held a subsequent joint study session on
August 5, 2008. Following the City Council Study Session, staff submitted the Draft
document to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)
for review, comment and ultimately, certification. Following HCD's review of the
document, staff held a joint telephone session to answer their questions and help
them complete their comments. Staff received HCD's response letter in mid-
October 2008, a letter that details the issues that need to be addressed in order to
receive certification of the Housing Element. Key points raised in the comment
letter as indicated in the packet provided this evening include: additional verification
of how the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) numbers would be met;
provide more detail about how the City will commit to rezone properties to meet the
target housing number; and, indicate how the City will allow and encourage
emergency shelters as mandated under SB 2. Staff's goal for tonight's study
session is to share the revised document and key points with the Commission and
follow up with a joint study session with the City Council next month after which the
document will be resubmitted to HCD.
APRIL 28, 2009 PAGE 2 PLANNING COMMISSION
STUDY SESSION
John Douglas, consultant, stated that what Diamond Bar is experiencing with the
state is very similar to what every other jurisdiction in southern California is
experiencing — a lengthy critique asking for additional commitments and information.
As a result, Diamond Bar is in the same boat as everyone else. The Housing
Element is different from every other element within the General Plan because it is
the only one in which the state has a role to review the document and issuing their
opinion as to whether it is in compliance. Having the state's certification of the
Housing Development may help the City defend against legal challenges of its
General Plan. Under very unusual circumstances, courts can intervene and order
that certain projects be approved such, as high density residential projects. If the
City's Housing Element cannot demonstrate that the City has adequate sites for low
income housing that requirement will carry over and the next time the Housing
Element is updated the City will have to demonstrate not only the adequate sites for
the new period but also the carry over from the old period which could make it even
more difficult to comply. SB 375 (Global Warming Law) is sweeping in its terms that
states if a City has a fully compliant Housing Element it has a shelf -life of eight
years. If it is not in compliance the Housing Element must be updated on a four-
year cycle.
Mr. Douglas stated that every city must accommodate at least one emergency
shelter, which means that the city must have zoning that would allow an emergency
shelter to be established through a simple, streamlined, "by right" procedure. SB 2
deals with emergency shelters as well as transitional and supportive housing.
Emergency shelter means a place where a homeless person can drop in on a day-
to-day basis. If the shelter has room they must allow the person as long as that
person meets the rules of the shelter. Typically, no individual can stay at a shelter
for more than six months. Transitional housing is more of a long-term situation such
as an apartment or house. People who live in this type of housing are typically
placed there through a program. Cities are not required to build these types of
facilities. The solution to providing this type of facility should be led by the non-profit
sector with government assistance. The RM zone could be designated where there
are existing church facilities and that a shelter could be established by a church in
the RM zone. Mr. Douglas referred the Commission to the SGVCOG's Regional
Homeless Services Strategy Phase I Report, available on the COG's website, for
further information on regional homelessness issues.
Mr. Douglas further stated that the next discussion item has to do with how the City
is going to demonstrate that it can meet its needs with fair share RHNA. Every city
is allocated a fair share of new housing to accommodate the region's growth needs
for different income categories. The lower income category has to be a certain level
of density in order for it to be financially feasible to be built. Based on the current
level, Diamond Bar cannot demonstrate any capacity for lower income housing.
APRIL 28, 2009 PAGE 3 PLANNING COMMISSION
STUDY SESSION
Because the City does not have any vacant land that is zoned to allow relatively
high density housing (30 -units per acre or typically a three-story building) the law
says that the City must commit to identifying areas that will be rezoned within a
couple of years to allow that type of housing. As a result, a commitment to survey
potential areas that could meet that need has been placed within the Housing
Element, which means that within two years the City Council will select and rezone
at least 15 '/2 acres to accommodate this need. Four different areas have been
identified in the appendix that could potentially meet this need. The ultimate
decision is up to the Planning Commission and City Council as to which area makes
the most sense. The options are listed in Table B-1 under Residential Land
Inventory: 1) Kmart site; 2) Tres Hermanos property; 3) Latter Day Saints Church;
and 4) Aera Energy project. A list of potential sites establishes a way for the City to
ultimate reach its goal. Once the Housing Element is complete and adopted, follow-
up implementation will be to conduct further study (possibly an EI R) on one or more
of these properties followed by an ultimate decision as to which site would include a
designation for high density housing. ACDD/Gubman elaborated on the potential of
each site.
VC/Nelson asked how important it was to locate this type of housing close to
shopping, etc. He believed the Kmart site would be preferable.
Mr. Douglas responded to C/Nolan that even though these are referred to as "low
income" units, the issue is really "density." There is no requirement that they be
built. The key requirement is that the City has zoning that allows 30 -units per acre
to be built. And whether they turn out to be affordable to low income families,
perhaps they will and perhaps they will not. The City would probably have to have a
non-profit developer that was interested in partnering up in order to make the units
affordable to low income.
ACA/Wohlenberg stated there is a presumption in affordable housing laws and
almost every zoning code that higher density is more desired by property owners.
In the last housing cycle this trend flipped on its head and once in awhile that
presumption does not work out. Mr. Douglas said that even if a project were built
that qualified as lower income affordable one would not be able to determine that by
driving by because all development has to meet design standards and development
standards. ACDD/Gubman explained that Claremont has an inclusionary housing
ordinance wherein if one is doing a development and building seven or more units a
certain number must be allocated for lower income households. The requirements
are that those units must be fully integrated within the development so that from the
exterior they are identical. The interior amenities may be downgraded or the unit
sizes might be smaller but in terms of being part of an integrated development there
would be no visible difference.
APRIL 28, 2009 PAGE 4 PLANNING COMMISSION
STUDY SESSION
Mr. Douglas responded to Chair/Torng that Diamond Bar's RHNA fair share of the
700,000 units of the SCAG region is about 1000 units. In about five or six years
from now there will be another forecast and another assessment of fair -share
allocations. If the City does not accomplish its numbers, there is no penalty for not
achieving these numbers so long as the City has a Certified Housing Element and it
is following through on its commitments. SB 375 may promote in future Housing
Element cycles a higher share allocated to the more urbanized areas next to
Metrolink and freeways, and lower share allocated to the areas not close to
convenient mass transit.

Chairman Torng adjourned the Study Session at 7:05 p.m.

beer and wine. There is a liquor store at 2020 Brea Canyon Road in the
building next to the subject site and an Indian Restaurant and Deli in the
immediate area as well.
There were no ex parte disclosures.
Chair/Torng opened the public hearing.
Mark Corkery, applicant, gave a background on the company and spoke
about the business. He said the company had been located in Diamond Bar
for the past three years.
MAY 12, 2009 PAGE 3 PLANNING COMMISSION
Mr. Corkery responded to C/Lee that the company assists high school
students. C/Lee asked how close the business was to the liquor store.
Mr. Corkery said he did not understand the reason for C/Lee's question
because there is a business catering to a similar age group right next doorto
this business. Mr. Corkery said the sushi bar is no more than 30 yards from
his door. The liquor store is not in the same building but in the building next
door. Since this is a college counseling agency it has a lot to do with the
students making decisions about colleges with parental support. Since the
parents are paying for college they need to be involved with the process and
many times are present at the counseling sessions. If Mr. Corkery is to
assume that C/Lee's concern is whether students would have access to
alcohol in his facility it would not be the case because parents are with the
students.
Chair/Torng asked Mr. Corkery if he read and concurred with the conditions
of approval including the limitation of five students per session and
Mr. Corkery responded affirmatively.
There was no one present who wished to speak on this matter.
C/Lee moved, VC/Nelson seconded, to approve Conditional Use Permit
No. 2009-01, based on the Findings of Fact, and subject to the conditions of

6.1 Review of Fiscal Year 2009-2010 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) —
Conformity with the General Plan.
ACDD/Gubman presented staff's report and recommended that the Planning
Commission adopt Resolution No. 2009-09 finding the proposed Fiscal Year
2009-2010 Capital Improvement Program in conformance with the General
Plan.
C/Nolan asked if the repair to the vandalism that occurred in Sycamore
Canyon Park was a part of this proposal. ACDD/Gubman responded that the
work was not a capital improvement and the judicial court will determine
restitution.
VC/Nelson asked if the staff had set priorities for the order in which these
improvements would be made. ACDD/Gubman said he did not see any
prioritization. There is funding available for all of the projects in the coming
year. VC/Nelson asked if the projects would begin immediately or be phased
to which ACDD/Gubman responded that the sewer improvement plan and
slurry seal programs are scheduled. There is funding available for planning
efforts onlyforthe Washington Street Park. ACDD/Gubman also responded
that the City Council reviews the budget and prioritizes projects. VC/Nelson
asked if ACDD/Gubman agreed with the Council's schedule. VC/Nelson
wondered if there was any attempt to prioritize these improvements to
determine when these things could happen within a year's timeframe.
ACDD/Gubman said he was sure there was an attempt to prioritize these
items and it is outside of the purview of what he is presenting to the
Commission so he is not prepared or qualified to answer the question but
would be more than happy to consult with Public Works and Community
Services staff to get a better answer for VC/Nelson. VC/Nelson said he did
not need an answer but wanted assurance that if ACDD/Gubman saw that
there was a public need for a particular project that he would pass that
MAY 26, 2009 PAGE 3 PLANNING COMMISSION
information on to the individuals who are scheduling the projects.
ACDD/Gubman said that his role in capital improvements does not rise to
that level of involvement. However, he would take VC/Nelson's input as a
vote of confidence that he could advocate for additional involvement in the
City's planning effort.
C/Nolan asked if every project contained in last year's budget was
completed. ACDD/Gubman said there were some carryover projects from
last year that are left to be completed. His understanding is that planned
phases were completed.
Chair/Torng commented that the Chino Hills Parkway rehab project was at
the city limits of Diamond Bar. He asked how many people would use the
parkway. ACDD/Gubman said he did not know the particulars of the
proposed project. Chair/Torng felt the usage was minimal compared to the
cost of the project. Chair/Torng asked for an explanation of the last column
of the table. VC/Nelson said that to Chair/Torng's point, the total expenditure
column was not necessary.
There was no one present who wished to speak on this matter.
C/Nolan moved, C/Lee seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2009-09 finding
the proposed Fiscal Year 2009-2010 Capital Improvement Program in
conformance with the General Plan. Motion carried by the following Roll Call
vote:
AYES: COMMISSIONERS: Lee, Nolan, VC/Nelson,
Chair/Torng
NOES: COMMISSIONERS: None
ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: Shah
7. PLANNING COMMISSIONER COMMENTS/INFORMATIONAL ITEMS:
C/Nolan asked if there was movement on the space next to Chili's. ACDD/Gubman
responded that the owner was in the process of seeking a tenant after Starbucks,
Panda Express and a bank dropped out. The City is working with the owner to help
improve visibility via signage along the surface streets to make the pad more
enticing to potential builders.
VC/Nelson asked if there was any activity on the old Krikorian theater space.
ACDD/Gubman said he met with the property owners last week and was told that
MAY 26, 2009 PAGE 4 PLANNING COMMISSION
they are having trouble finding a tenant for the space. The owners are considering
demolishing the current structure and building in-line retail space in its place.
9. STAFF COMMENTS/INFORMATIONAL ITEMS:
9.1 Public Hearing dates for future projects.
ACDD/Gubman responded to Chair/Torng that a public comment period is
currently open for the planning for the eastbound SR60/Grand Avenue off
ramp for the proposed stadium project. The City will be forwarding its
comments regarding the issues regarding the design studies and
environmental review such as protecting the Honda property. The City is
also putting Caltrans and the City of Industry on notice that it is interested in
finding a location along that stretch of the freeway frontage for a community
message board for Diamond Bar businesses.
ACDD/Gubman advised the Planning Commission that the only item
scheduled for June 9 is the Study Session on how to read an EIR.

2.1 RECREATION PROGRAM REPORT — RS/Murphey
C/Low asked if the Easter Egg Hunt is co-sponsored by the Lions Club
MAY 29, 2009
PAGE 2 P&R COMMISSION
and whether they provide any of the supplies. CSD/Rose responded yes,
the Lions Club provides the majority of the supplies. The City provides
eggs and setup. The budget shows what is spent by the City only_
C/Owens asked if the City had any problems accommodating D.B.
residents for the classes. RS/Murphey said that staff has discussed giving
priority to residents. Registration was started mid-March and the classes
were not filled until the end of April.
RS/Murphey responded to VC/Grundy that staff asks for comment cards
from parents, coaches and staff and those recommendations are included
in the list.
Chair/Herndon asked if he recalled correctly that there would be a
maximum of 40 Volunteens. RS/Murphey responded yes, but that staff
wanted to give all applicants a chance. Chair/Herndon said he noticed the
income from the Diamond Bar Center was up about $13,000 over last
year and whether this was a result of increased fees. RS/Murphey
responded that most of the revenue was due to the increase in fees. Staff
routinely receives comments about fees being too high.
2.2 PARKS REPORT — PMS/Jordan
C/Owens asked if staff has noted any problems in the playground sand
areas and PMS/Jordan responded no. C/Owens suggested the
Commission send a thank you letter to the LDS Church for the park
benches on Steep Canyon Trail. The Commission concurred.
C/Low recalled that staff was going to purchase benches for some of the
parks. CSD/Rose said staff acquired some replacement benches.
Additional benches were placed at Sycamore Canyon Park. C/Low stated
that someone vandalized the pocket park on Longview north.
Chair/Herndon asked if staff still planned to install shade structures and
benches on some of the trails. CSD/Rose responded that shade
structures might be included in future phases.
2.3 PARKS MASTER PLAN — Update from subcommittee meeting held on
Tuesday, May 26 — CSD/Rose
CSD/Rose reported that the subcommittee members and project team
met with the consultants to talk about the Parks Master Plan priorities.

VC/Grundy asked for an update on the City of Industry's NFL Stadium project.
CSD/Rose said he understood that three lawsuits have been filed against the
City of Industry. Two lawsuits have to do with the EIR. One lawsuit was filed by
two D.B. residents and one Claremont resident claiming that the City of Industry
violated the Brown Act when they approved the EIR. The City of Walnut had a
mandatory settlement conference. The stadium cannot move forward until the
lawsuits are resolved. Chair/Herndon said that apparently Walnut is asking for
significant mitigation.
VC/Grundy stated that a resident suggested to him that the City sponsor
mountain bike/bike races or running races. During the Parks Master Plan
meeting they discussed a walk-a-thon type of activity.

II. PUBLIC COMMENTS: John Harbaugh, 23347 Wagon Trail, spoke about the lack
of parking at the D.B. Library, plastic pillars that prevent the ability to make u -turns,
inability to enter the center median to make a safe left turn as well as, the six (6)
parking spaces lost to employee parking. He was also concerned about the changes
by Pomona Unified School Distract in converting Golden Springs Elementary School
into an intermediate school and whether an EIR was required. His third issue was
with the Pulte Homes Tract. He thought he understood that the back gate at
Highcrest Drive provided a second entry/departure point. As of today he was
informed that the second gate was a "fire exit" only. He wanted to know what
happened to the original plan to grant permission for an alternate exit.
May 14, 2009 PAGE 2 T&T COMMISSION
PWD/Liu responded to Mr. Harbaugh that the City has facilitated an arrangement with
Century 21 and the Library to possibly allow for extra library parking through a shared
parking agreement. The City provided a site plan to both property owners for their
consideration. The City has not received information about proposed changes at
Golden Springs Elementary School and will contact school administrators to discuss
possible traffic increases. With respect to the Pulte Homes Development, he will
discuss the second gate issue with the City's Community Development Department.
C/Shay asked staff to take a close look at the streets to see if there is a possibility for
restructuring to address Mr. Harbaugh's concern regarding left hand turns and to
follow up on the potential agreement with Century 21 for additional library parking. He
commented on the inadequacies of the current library and the matter of residents
leaving the community to use facilities in other cities.
Chair/Lin said he lives two homes down from the gate in the Pulte Homes tract and
served as Homeowner Association President for three years. There is an existing
document between Pulte Homes and the City that states that the gate is to be used
for emergency access only. He believed that the Fire Department and Sheriff's
Department had keys. In addition, two of the homeowners have keys in the event the
residents need to vacate the area in case of fire or other emergencies.
Nancy Harbaugh explained that the problem is that residents of the Pulte Homes tract
are cutting through their neighborhood. She was disappointed when Council
Members voted against a new library and encouraged residents to vote against
Measure L because great cities have great libraries and D.B. needs a great library.
She invited Commissioners to visit the library on a Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 to
observe what happens. She refuses to take her 4 -year old granddaughter to the
library. If the City cannot come up with a way to mitigate the traffic issue perhaps
staff should recommend to the City Council to provide shuttle service (from Sycamore
Canyon Park).
On a separate issue, Mrs. Harbaugh requested installation of a traffic signal at the
intersection of Diamond Bar Boulevard and Morning Canyon Road because of the
pre-school at Diamond Bar Congregational Church.
In response to Mrs. Harbaugh's request, Chair/Lin explained that the City must meet
the warrant study in order to install anew traffic signal. PWD/Liu responded to Mrs.
Harbaugh that staff will proceed with some basic data collection to determine whether
the intersection warrants a traffic signal study.
C/Pincher shared with Mrs. Harbaugh that there is a procedure for involving their
neighbors in a Neighborhood Traffic Management Program and petition process for
possible resolution.
C/Shay commented that, in his opinion, the concept of shuttle service is very good;
however, to have that type of service five days a week might be cost -prohibitive and
impractical. If Mrs. Harbaugh is recommending this type of service on particular days
at particular times for particular groups it might be feasible.

III. ITEMS FROM STAFF:
A. Received and Filed Traffic Enforcement Updates for:
1. Citations: February, March & April 2009
2. Collisions: February, March & April 2009
3. Street Sweeping: February, March & April 2009
VC/House said he had not seen the Code Enforcement Officer following the street
sweeper any time during this year. There are usually about seven cars parked on the
street in the neighborhood in which he lives when the sweeper comes through and he
has not seen those cars ticketed.
IV. OLD BUSINESS — None
V. NEW BUSINESS — None
VI. STATUS OF PREVIOUS ACTION ITEMS:
PWD/Liu stated that at its April 21St meeting, the City Council approved the
maintenance agreement with Caltrans for the proposed medians on Pathfinder Road
just east of the SR -57. At the May 5th Council meeting, the Council adopted the
Fiscal Year 2009-2010 Goals and Objectives, a copy of which has been provided to
the Commissioners this evening.
VII. ITEMS FROM COMMISSIONERS:
C/Shay commented that the maintenance at the City's entries and exits and along the
freeways is concerning due to overgrown vegetation and litter. Whatever staff could
do to get Caltrans to respond would greatly improve the City's appearance. PWD/Liu
reiterated Caltrans' position in not having a set maintenance schedule and said that
staff would continue to attempt to influence them to be more responsive.
VC/House asked about the USA markings on Grand Avenue. SE/Yee responded
that the City is waiting until completion of the work by the current permittee, NextG. In
fact, the City has requested a quote from a contractor to determine the cost of
removing the markings.
VC/House reiterated his concern about the height of the Verizon ROS lines going into
residential yards and bending poles. After discussing the matter with MA/Gallegos,
they met with Verizon officials at the site. At all four sites there were multiple
violations that needed to be corrected and he felt the City should be more aware of
substandard work.
C/Pincher pointed out that at the southbound SR -57 split, where the SR -60 goes west
and the SR -57 goes south, there is a large poorly lit concrete pillar. She expressed
May 14, 2009 PAGE 4 T&T COMMISSION
her concern about the lack of visibility for freeway drivers. She suggested installing
some type of reflector.
C/Mok reported that on April 13th there was an NTMP meeting with the Maple Hill
Neighborhood. He was fortunate to attend and AE/Molina and AE/Ching conducted
an excellent presentation. Attendees appeared to be pleased with the information
they received and wanted to continue on to the next step by acquiring the necessary
signatures from neighborhood residents. He thanked staff for their continued effort
and presentation at the meeting. He wondered why this item was not on the list of
Informational Items this evening to provide an update. PWD/Liu reiterated the
process and reported that staff is in the data collection process; therefore, no updates
are available at this time
VIII. INFORMATIONAL ITEMS;
A. Diamond Bar TMS/Traffic Signal Interconnect Links — Phase 1 — SE/Yee
reported that there are currently 38 intersections connected online with the
system awaiting completion of functional testing. Staff is required to
participate in a week-long training on operation of the system. It appears that
the earliest staff will be able to have the system in use and provide benefit will
be August 2009. Phase 11 is out for bid. Chair/Lin suggested the City make a
short promotion video to run on DBTV.
B. Lycoming Street Rehabilitation Project - SE/Yee stated that staff received
project bids and can report that the lowest bid amount was significantly lower
than the engineer's estimate. Staff expects to award the contract at the City
Council's first June meeting with construction commencing the end of
June/beginning of July.
C. Sunset Crossing Road/Prospectors Road Traffic Calming Project — SE/Yee
reported that improvements have been made to the medians with installation
of the landscaping, trees, etc. The final landscape plantings are imminent. A
portion of Sunset Crossing Road was slurry sealed today. There will be a
slight delay on the landscape plantings as staff works through minor issues
with SCE in terms of providing electrical service to the irrigation controls.
D. Industry's Grand Avenue Bridge Widening/interchange Project — PWD/Liu
reported that at the end of March, DB staff and City of Industry staff met with
Senator Feinstein's representative to provide her office with the latest
information regarding this project. The staff member concurred that this was
indeed a regionally significant project after witnessing the afternoon
interchange bottleneck.
E. Lemon Avenue On/Off Ramps Project— PWD/Liu stated that this project is still
in design phase and anticipates approximately 65 percent of the plans and
specs to be completed by July. Staff continues to dialogue with the state
regarding the landscape concept, as well as completing the project in two
phases.
F. SR -57/60 Feasibility Study — PWD/Liu reported that the modeling for the
interchange was recently completed and he hoped to be able to receive the
final draft report within a month or so.
May 14, 2009 PAGE 5 T&T COMMISSION
G. Residential Area 5 Slurry Seal Project — AE/Malpica-Perez reported that the
project is scheduled for bid opening on Wednesday, May 20th. The award for
contract is anticipated to go to the City Council on June 2"d
H. Arterial Zone 3/Zone 4 Slurry Seal Project (American Recovery &
Reinvestment Act) — AE/Malpica-Perez stated that the Request for
Authorization was sent to Caltrans on April 16th. Staff has since been notified
that it was forwarded to Sacramento for approval. Authorization is expected
by mid-May. Once authorization to proceed with construction is received,
plans will be finalized and staff will go out for bid with an expected award of
contract by July.
I. Chino Hills Parkway Street Rehab Project — AE/Malpica-Perez reported that
pavement investigation for the project is underway to help determine the
method of rehabilitation with the report of the results expected by the end of
May. The award of construction is anticipated by late summer/early fall.
C/Shay inquired about the amount of stimulus funds the City will be receiving.
PWD/Liu responded to C/Shay that the City will receive $1,770,000 of federal
stimulus monies for street improvements. The City will also receive about
$550,000 of energy efficiency and conservation block grant program funds.

Agenda # 7
Meeting Date: 7/7/09
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: James DeStefano, City Man e
TITLE: AWARD OF CONTRACT TO DAVIV
DESIGN IN THE AMOUNT NOT
TO EXCEED $47,500 FOR THE DESIGN OF CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF WASHINGTON STREET MINI -PARK; AMOUNT INCLUDES
10% CONTINGENCY OF $4,150 AND $2,000 FOR REIMBURSABLES.
RECOMMENDATION: Award contract.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: $50,000 of Quimby Funds are included in the 2009/10 FY Budget for this
project.
BACKGROUND: The City of Diamond Bar recently acquired a vacant parcel of land at the corner
of Washington Street and Lincoln Avenue to develop as a City Park. To develop the park, it is
necessary to contract with a consultant team to design the park and to complete the construction
documents. The design team will consist of, at minimum, a Landscape Architect, Civil Engineer,
Survey Team and Electrical Engineer. To obtain a qualified consultant team, staff released a Request
for Proposals (RFP) on February 23, 2009. Four (4) firms responded to the RFP with proposals on
the March 19 due date. Staff has reviewed the proposals, checked references and interviewed the
three firms deemed most responsive to the RFP. After careful review and consideration, staff
recommends that a contract be awarded to David Volz Design.
DISCUSSION: The vacant parcel that will be developed is rather small, 15,800 sq ft, or just over
a third of an acre. Because of its small size and the fact that it is located on Washington Street, staff
has attached the working name for this project as "Washington Street Mini -Park". City Council may
wish to select another name for the park prior to its opening.
The process to develop this site will start with meetings with the neighbors to see what they envision
for the park. Their ideas will be incorporated into a conceptual design by the consultant that will be
presented at a second neighborhood meeting for additional input. A final conceptual plan will be
developed for review by the Parks and Recreation Commission and approval by the City Council.
After approval of the conceptual plan, which will include construction cost estimates, the consultant
will develop the construction documents. Staff expects to have the construction plans ready for
consideration as a potential CIP project for the 2010/11 FY budget.
The consultant that staff recommends for this project, David Volz Design, has a tremendous amount
of experience hosting neighborhood meetings and designing parks for small sites similar to this one in
Diamond Bar. They just opened a .75 acre park in Lawndale this past week. They previously
designed the 1.8 acre George Washington Park in Anaheim and the .69 acre Aroma Park in West
Covina, just to name a few. Staff believes Dave Volz Design will do an excellent job working with the
community, staff and City officials to develop a quality design for Diamond Bar's site.
The four (4) firms that submitted proposals for this project and their fees are:

writing, shall be considered. City shall meet with Consultant prior to preparing the written report. If
any noncompliance with the Agreement is found, City may direct Consultant to correct the
inadequacies, or, in the alternative, may terminate this Agreement as provided herein.
18. Compliance with Laws. Consultant shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances,
codes and regulations of the federal, state, and local governments.
19. Non -Waiver of Terms, Rights and Remedies. Waiver by either party of any one or
more of the conditions of performance under this Agreement shall not be a waiver of any other
condition of performance under this Agreement. In no event shall the making by City of any payment
to Consultant constitute or be construed as a waiver by City of any breach of covenant, or any default
which may then exist on the part of Consultant, and the making of any such payment by City shall in
no way impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to City with regard to such breach or default.
20. Attorney's Fees. In the event that either party to this Agreement shall commence any
legal or equitable action or proceeding to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Agreement, the
prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover its costs of suit, including

RECOMMENDATION:

FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Diamond Bar entered into a Right-of-way Use Agreement with NextG Networks of
California ("NextG") on November 18, 2008. The agreement allows NextG to place seven (7) micro
wireless communications antennas that connect to City owned street lights or utility poles, and serve
as repeater stations in locations with poor cellular coverage. NextG leases its equipment to cellular
companies and provides the City with a yearly use fee, estimated at $5,000 annually.
On June 1, 2009, the City was notified that NextG's parent company, NextG Networks, Inc ("Parent")
would be entering into a Merger Agreement with Nodes Merger Corp. Under the terms of the
agreement with the City, NextG is requesting that the City Council adopt the attached resolution
consenting to the Indirect Transfer of Control of NextG Networks.
The City Attorney and staff have reviewed the request and recommend the resolution be adopted by
the City Council. The transfer will have no impact on the terms of NextG's agreement with the City.

Agenda # 6.9
Meeting Date: 7/7/09
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: James DeStefano, City Mang
TITLE: APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT #1 TO CONTRACT WITH VALLEYCREST TO ADD
PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION OF A CENTRALIZED IRRIGATION CONTROL
SYSTEM AT THE CITY'S PARKS, DIAMOND BAR CENTER, FOOTBALL FIELD AND
SLOPE AT LORBEER MIDDLE SCHOOL, THE TRAIL / TRAIL HEAD AT SYCAMORE
CANYON PARK, AND LLAD'S #38,39 & 41, IN THE AMOUNT OF $516,647.14, PLUS
A CONTINGENCY OF $59,352.86, FOR A TOTAL AUTHORIZATION OF $576,000;
AND APPROPRIATION OF $576,000 FOR THE 2009/10 FY BUDGET FROM
GENERAL FUND RESERVES; AND AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF THE
REMAINING CONTINGENCY FUNDS TO REPLACE TURF HEADS WITH ROTATING
NOZZLES ON MEDIANS IN LLAD #38.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of this contract amendment will authorize staff to expend up to
$576,000 during the 2009/10 FY for a centralized irrigation control system City-wide by ValleyCrest
Landscape Maintenance. Total estimated cost to install the centralized system city-wide, including
contingencies, is $576,000. This is also the total amount that needs to be appropriated from General
Fund reserves for this project. The City has received a grant from Metropolitan Water District (MWD)
for $166,800. The City is also eligible for a $41,700 grant from Walnut Valley Water District (WVWD)
after the controllers are installed. This results in a net cost to the City for this project of $367,500.
Anticipated water savings of 32% annually will result in the City recovering its General Fund
investment in about 4 years.
BACKGROUND: The City of Diamond Bar currently has 80 irrigation controllers that are needed to
irrigate all of the landscaped areas maintained by the City. Currently, each of the controllers is
programmed manually by a contract irrigation specialist. When rain or other weather condition
requires a change to the program that regulates the irrigation system, the contractor must manually
make the change at each location. Also, when leaks, broken heads, stuck valves or other
irregularities occur, they must be found during the weekly inspection of the system, or discovered by
someone driving by and reporting the irrigation problem. The current system has the potential for time
delays in correcting problems resulting in the potential waste of water. Eliminating these delays
through the use of technology is the primary way that water savings is achieved. Additional savings
are achieved by use of a weather station that automatically determines the exact amount of water
needed for irrigation and up -dates the time on each controller automatically. The use of a centralized
irrigation control system is the best use of the technology available to save water. MWD has
conducted independent studies that demonstrate an average water savings of 32% per year when
using a centralized system compared to a manually programmed system. With this savings as
justification, MWD offered a grant program to Cities to install a centralized system. Staff applied for
this grant and the City of Diamond Bar has been awarded $166,800. WVWD also recognizes the
potential for water savings from a centralized system and will provide a 25% match to the MWD grant,
which for Diamond Bar is a one-time WVWD grant of $41,700. Diamond Bar currently spends
$310,000 per year on irrigation water. If we achieve the 32% savings as anticipated, the cost savings
will be about $99,200 per year. With a net cost of the centralized system of $367,500, the annual
savings in water use will pay back the General Fund in about 4 years. Also, with the existing drought
conditions Southern California is experiencing, cities are being asked to conserve water. The
centralized system will help Diamond Bar achieve this goal as well.
DISCUSSION: The following locations will receive centralized irrigation controllers that will be
installed by ValleyCrest:
1. Diamond Bar Center - 1600 S. Grand Ave.
2. Paul C. Grow Park - 23281 Forest Canyon Drive
3. Heritage Park .- 2900 Brea Canyon Road
4. Lorbeer Middle School (Football Field and Slope on Golden Springs) - 501 S. Diamond Bar Blvd.
5. Maple Hill Park - 1309 S. Maple Hill Road
6. Pantera Park - 738 Pantera Drive
7. Peterson Park - 24142 E. Sylvan Glen Drive
8. Ronald Reagan Park - 2201 Peaceful Hills Road
9. Starshine Park - 20839 Starshine Road
10. Summitridge Park - 1425 Summitridge Drive
11. Sycamore Canyon Park - 22930 Golden Springs Drive
12. Sycamore Canyon Trail & Trail Head
13. Lighting and Landscape Maintenance District #38
14. Lighting and Landscape Maintenance District #39
15. Lighting and Landscape Maintenance District #41
Section 1 of their contract authorizes the City Council to add the centralized irrigation controller
project to the scope of work ValleyCrest performs.
Another issue that Diamond Bar faces related to irrigation is the overspray onto the street that occurs
on the grass medians throughout the City. A new type of sprinkler head has been developed that
helps control this overspray, the rotating nozzle. Staff is also seeking City Council approval to utilize
any contingency funds remaining after the installation of the centralized system to replace as many of
the old sprinkler heads as possible with rotating nozzles. There are over 2,635 sprinkler heads that
need to be replaced and it will cost over $47,500 to replace them all. If the City Council authorizes
this alternate use of contingency funds, sprinkler head replacement will not commence until the
centralized system is installed and operating properly and a Change Order for sprinkler head
replacement is approved by the City Manager.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: James DeStefano, City Manager
TITLE: Award a Three Year Contract to SJC 3 Consulting to administer the City's
Home Improvement Program (HIP) for an amount not to exceed $20,000 for FY
2009-10.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The FY 2009-10 CDBG Program Budget includes $100,000 allocated to the City's Home
Improvement Program. Per CDBG guidelines, the maximum amount that can be spent on
administrative costs is 20% of the HIP program budget ($20,000). The CDBG Program does
not impact the City's General Fund budget.
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of the Home Improvement Program is to preserve and enhance single family
residential neighborhoods throughout the City. Through the provision of grants and loans,
eligible homeowners of single family detached dwellings can correct hazardous structural
conditions; make modifications necessary to provide handicapped access; improve the
overall exterior appearance of the home; and correct exterior code violations. Individuals
must meet the County's guidelines for low or moderate income to be eligible to participate in
the program
Eligible participants may apply for grants of up to $5,000 and deferred loans of up to $10,000
for repairs to owner -occupied homes. In addition, emergency grants of up to $2,000 are
available on an as needed basis.
DISCUSSION
In June 2008, the City entered into a three-year contract with LDM Associates, Inc. (LDM) to
administer the Home Improvement Program. However, earlier this year, the City received
City received notice from LDM that they would no longer be able to provide services to
the City, effective July 1, 2009.
In June 2009, the City issued a Request for Proposal to 5 qualified firms. We received
three proposals from the following firms:
Wildan
SJC3 Consultants
Housing Programs
Following the submittal of the proposals, City staff conducted interviews with key staff of
each of the three firms. Based on the results of the interview process, staff
recommends the contract be awarded to SJC 3 Consulting (SJC 3). SJC 3 has
extensive experience administering programs similar to the City's HIP. Also, as former
employees of the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission (CDC),
SJC 3 staff has extensive experience in CDC rule compliance and reporting.
The attached contract is for a not -to exceed amount of $20,000 for FY 2009-10. The
attached contract allows for two additional one-year extensions. The value of those
extensions will not exceed 20% of the City's HIP program budget for the year the
contract is effective.

Agenda # 6.12
Meeting Date: July 7, 2009
CITY COUNCIL 7 ,YAGENDAREPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: James DeStefano, City Manager
TITLE: Approve Amendment No. 3 to the Consulting Services Agreement with
Diana Cho and Associates for Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) Labor and Contract Compliance services ($21,600) for FY 2009-
10
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve
FINANCIAL SUMMARY:
These services are paid for by Community Development Block Grant funds and there
are sufficient funds allocated in the FY 2008-09 budget for this expenditure. The
expenditure of $21,600 is within the 10% spending cap for the CDBG administrative
costs for FY 2009-10.
BACKGROUND:
Each year the City receives Community Development Block Grant funds. These funds
are disbursed by the Federal Housing and Urban Development Department through the
Los Angeles County Community Development Commission. The City uses these funds
for a variety of programs and capital projects.
Due to the significant restrictions on the use of these funds and the numerous
regulations governing the spending and accounting of these funds, it is prudent to utilize
the expertise of a CDBG specialist to monitor the expenditures and complete the
reporting requirements. The Federal government recognizes this and as such
authorizes a portion of the funds to be used for these services.
DISCUSSION
In July 2007 the City entered into a one-year contract with Diana Cho and Associates to
provide CDBG contract compliance and monitoring services to ensure the funds are
spent appropriately. The contract provides for two, one-year extensions for a maximum
contract period of 3 years. In May 2008 Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $4,000 was
approved by the City Manager to cover additional costs in the first year of the contract..
The original contract and Amendment No. 1 were within the purchasing authority of the
City Manager.
In FY 2008-09 staff recommended the Council approve Amendment No. 2, extending
the contract for services until June 30, 2009. By extending the contract for a second
year, the City Council authorized a total contract amount of $43,308.
With Amendment No. 3, City staff is recommending the City Council approve extending
the current contract with Diana Cho and Associates for a third year, from July 1, 2009 to
June 30, 2010. If approved, the total contract amount for three years of services will be
$64,908.

Southerly City Limit); and the medians throughout the City. The maintenance areas are
further detailed in Exhibit "B-1 " of the Engineer's Report. The maintenance and servicing of
public landscaping improvements installed and constructed in public places in the City

District, tending to enhance their value. The estimated number of parcels within the District
is 17,854 parcels. The amount assessed upon the lands within District No. 38 for Fiscal
Year 2008-09 was $15.00 per parcel.

Proposition 218 as set forth in Section 5(a): Any assessment imposed exclusively to finance
the capital costs or maintenance and operation expenses for sidewalks, streets, sewers,
water, flood control drainage systems or vector control.

INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the order of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar, this report is prepared in
compliance with the requirements of Article 4, Chapter 1, Landscaping and Lighting Act of
1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California.
This report presents the engineering analysis for the 2009-10 Fiscal Year for the district known
as:
ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 38
CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
(Hereinafter referred to as "District").
This District, by special benefit assessments, provides funding for the maintenance of landscaped
areas owned by the City of Diamond Bar which are located in public rights-of-way within the
City of Diamond Bar.
Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied
according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. The section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be
apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all
assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated special benefits to be received by
each such lot or parcel from the improvements.
The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements
shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7 (commencing with
Section 5000)) [of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California]."
As the assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax,
and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution.
Properties owned by public agencies, such as a city, county, state or the federal
government, are not assessable under pre -Prop 218 law.
Assessment District No. 38

Engineer's Report -- FY 2009-2010
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The'net amount to be assessed upon lands within the District in accordance with this report is

lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the
improvements, namely the maintenance and servicing of public landscaping improvements
within such District. The maintenance and servicing of public landscaping improvements
'installed and constructed in public places in the City of Diamond Bar provides a special benefit
which is received by each and every lot or parcel within the District, tending to enhance their
value.

Beautification of the streets which are used by all of the residents in Diamond Bar.
2. A sense of community pride resulting from well-maintained green spaces.
The enhancement of the value of property which results from the foregoing benefits.
Existing land use information indicates that well over 90 percent of the parcels within the City of
Diamond Bar are residences. Because the special benefits derived apply equally to all residents
and parcels, it has been determined that all assessable parcels would receive the same net
assessment.

compliance with the requirements of Article 4, Chapter 1, Landscaping and Lighting Act of

Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied
according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. The section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be
apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all
assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated special benefits to be received by
each such lot or parcel from the improvements.
The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements
shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7 (commencing with
Section 5000)) [of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California]."
As the assessments are, levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax,

Assessment District No. 39
Engineer's Report — FY 2009-2010
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The net amount to be assessed upon lands within the District in accordance with this report is
apportioned by a formula and method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable
lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the
improvements, namely the maintenance and servicing of public landscaping improvements
within such District. The maintenance and servicing of public landscaping improvements
installed and constructed in public places in the City of Diamond Bar provides a special benefit
which is received by each and every lot or parcel within the District, tending to enhance their
value.
The primary benefits of landscaping are as set forth below:
1. Beautification of the streets which are used by all of the residents in'Diamond Bar.
2. Public parks which can be utilized and enjoyed by all residents within the District.
3. A sense of community pride resulting from well-maintained green spaces.
4. The enhancement of the value of property which results from the foregoing benefits.
Existing land use information indicates that all of the parcels within the District are residences.
Because the special benefits derived apply equally to all residents and parcels, it has been
determined that all assessable parcels would receive the same net assessment.

Assessment District No. 41
Engineer's Report— FY 2009-2010
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The net amount to be assessed upon lands within the District in accordance with this report is
apportioned by a formula and method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable
lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the
improvements, namely the maintenance and servicing of public landscaping improvements
within such District. The maintenance and servicing of public landscaping improvements
installed and constructed in public places in the City of Diamond Bar provides a special benefit
which is received by each and every lot or parcel within the District, tending to enhance their
value.
The primary benefits of landscaping are as set forth below:
1. Beautification of the streets which are used by all of the residents in Diamond Bar.
2. Public parks which can be utilized and enjoyed by all residents within the District.
A sense of community pride resulting from well-maintained green spaces.
4. The enhancement of the value of property which results from the foregoing benefits.
Existing land use information indicates that all of the parcels within the District are residences.
Because the special benefits derived apply equally to all residents and parcels, it has been
determined that all assessable parcels would receive the same net assessment.

CITY COUNCIL
Agenda # 7 , 2
Meeting Date: July 7, 2009
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: James DeStefano, City Mana e
TITLE: AN ORDINANCE OF THE Cl Y OF DIAMOND BAR EXTENDING
ORDINANCE NO. 04 (2008) PROHIBITING CERTAIN GROUP RESIDENTIAL
USES INCONSISTENT WITH RESIDENTIAL ZONES AND PROVIDING
REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION PROVISIONS FOR THE DISABLED,
PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65858(d).
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Ordinance No. XX (2009).
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
On July 15, 2008, the City Council adopted Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 04 (2008),
instituting a 45 -day ban on the establishment of certain group residential uses inconsistent
with residential zones and provided reasonable accommodation provisions for the disabled.
The reason for the adoption of the Interim Urgency Ordinance was to provide temporary relief
from the potential impacts of noise, traffic, parking and law enforcement from certain group
residential uses in residential zones. On August 19, 2008, the City Council adopted
Ordinance No. 4A (2008), which extended the moratorium an additional 10 months and 15
days to provide additional time to conduct research and propose changes to the City's
Development Code.
Staff has begun its initial review of new development standards and locational criteria for
group residential uses and residential facilities. It is likely that new development standards
for these uses will change as a result of the study. Due to the time required to prepare the
new standards and locational criteria, staff anticipates that the adoption of the new
regulations and updating the Development Code will not be completed before the Interim
Urgency Ordinance's July 15, 2009, expiration date.
While the City is completing the research and preparing new standards, there is an
immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare posed by group residential uses
inconsistent with residential zones. Therefore, the extension of the Urgency Ordinance is
necessary to alleviate and address that threat until a more permanent remedy can be
implemented. Government Code Section 65858 authorizes Council to extend the Urgency
Ordinance for one additional year at a noticed public hearing. If the new development
standards and criteria are complete prior to the expiration of the one year extension, staff will
bring the proposed changes to council for review.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
In accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines, Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15308, the City has determined that this activity is
categorically exempt.
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING:
Notice for this hearing was published in the Inland Valley Bulletin and the San Gabriel Valley
Tribune on June 26, 2009, in a 1/8 page display. According to Planning and Zoning Law
Government Code Section 65091(a)(3), if the number of property owners to whom a public
hearing notice would be mailed is greater than 1000, a local agency may provide notice by
placing a display advertisement 1/8 page in one newspaper of general circulation.

ACCORDING TO THE PROVISIONS OF GOVERNMENT CODE
SECTION 65858 AND DECLARING THE URGENCY THEREOF.
The City Council of the City of Diamond Bar does hereby ordain as follows:
Section 1. Moratorium Extended. Ordinance No. 04 (2008), adopted July 15, 2008,
and subsequently extended by Ordinance No. 4A (2009) on August 19, 2009, is hereby
extended for one year.
Section 2. Penalties. Violation of any provision of this Ordinance shall constitute a
misdemeanor and shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed $1,000 or by imprisonment in
County jail for not to exceed six (6) months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Each and
every day such a violation exists shall constitute a separate and distinct violation of this
Ordinance. In addition to the foregoing, any violation of this Ordinance shall constitute a public
nuisance and shall be subject to abatement as provided by all applicable provisions of law.
Section 3. Severability. If any part or provision of this Ordinance or the application to
any peon or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of this Ordinance, including the
application of such part of provision to other persons or circumstances, shall not be affected and
shall continue in full force and effect. To this end, the provisions of this Ordinance are
severable.
Section 4. Purpose and Findings: The land use impacts associated with different
types of group residential uses in residential zones and the City's authority to address those
impacts have not been addressed in light of recent legal developments. The secondary impacts
of these facilities, particularly pertaining to noise, traffic, parking and law enforcement can
adequately be addressed following review and updating of the City's current regulations.
The City is currently studying new development standards and locational criteria for group
residential uses and residential care facilities in order to ensure proper and appropriate
regulation of the use and occupancy of single-family properties throughout the city in order to
preserve the residential character of the neighborhoods. It is likely that zoning standards for
these uses will change as a result of this update. Due to the time required to prepare and adopt
these new regulations and update the zoning ordinance, this Ordinance is intended to place an
interim prohibition on the establishment of new facilities and uses in residential zoning districts
as of the date of adoption hereof until new permanent regulations are prepared and adopted by
the City Council.
Notwithstanding the above, in accordance with Federal and State fair housing laws, this
ordinance also provides for reasonable accommodations in the City's zoning and land use
regulations, policies, and practices, during the term of this Ordinance or any extension thereof,
when needed to provide an individual with a disability an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a
dwelling. This ordinance is adopted pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858
and shall take effect immediately upon adoption of a four-fifths vote of the City Council. This
ordinance shall be in full force and effect for a period of 10months and 15 days from August 29,
2008, unless extended by the City Council in accordance with the provisions of California
Government Code Section 65858.
Section 5. Conflicting Laws. For the term of this Ordinance, or any extension thereof,
the provisions of this Ordinance shall govern over any conflicting provisions or any other City
code, ordinance, resolution or policy.
Section 6. California Environmental Quality Act Finding. According to the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Sections 15061(b)(3)
and 15308, the City has determined that this activity is categorically exempt.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 7th day of July 2009.

of housing for one or more individuals with a disability;
5
3. Documentation that the specific exception or modification requested by the
applicant is necessary to provide one or more individuals with a disability an equal
opportunity to use and enjoy the residence;
4. Any other information that the Planning Director reasonably concludes is necessary
to determine whether the findings required by subsection 4.13. below can be made,
so long as any request for information regarding the disability of the individuals
benefited complies with fair housing law protections and the privacy rights of the
individuals affected.
B. Findings. The written decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny a request for
reasonable accommodation shall be based on the following findings, all of which are
required for approval:
1. The requested accommodation is requested by or on behalf of one or more
individuals with a disability protected under the fair housing laws.
2. The requested accommodation is necessary to provide one or more individuals
with a disability an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling.
3. The requested accommodation will not impose an undue financial or administrative
burden on the City as "undue financial or administrative burden" is defined in fair
housing laws and interpretive case law.
4. The requested accommodation will not result in a fundamental alteration in the
nature of the City's zoning program, as "fundamental alteration" is defined in fair
housing laws and interpretive case law.
5. The requested accommodation will not, under the specific facts of the case, result
in a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals or substantial physical
damage to the property of others.
C. Factors. In making a decision regarding the reasonableness of the requested
accommodation, the following factors may be considered:
1. Whether the requested accommodation will affirmatively enhance the quality of life
of one or more individuals with a disability.
2. Whether the individual or individuals with a disability will be denied an equal
opportunity to enjoy the housing type of their choice absent the accommodation.
3. In the case of a residential care facility, whether the requested accommodation is
necessary to make facilities of a similar nature or operation economically viable in
light of the particularities of the relevant market and market participants.
4. In the case of a residential care facility, whether the existing supply of facilities of a
similar nature and operation in the community is sufficient to provide individuals
with a disability an equal opportunity to live in a residential setting.
5. Whether the requested accommodation would fundamentally alter the character of
the neighborhood;
6. Whether the accommodation would result in a substantial increase in traffic or
insufficient parking;
7. Whether granting the requested accommodation would substantially undermine
any express purpose of either the City's General Plan or an applicable specific
plan;
8. In the case of a residential care facility, whether the requested accommodation
would create an institutionalized environment due to the number of and distance
between facilities that are similar in nature or operation.
D. Hearing and Decision. Any request for reasonable accommodation shall be reviewed by
the Planning Commission at a public hearing and may be approved, conditionally
6
approved or denied by the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission may
approve alternative reasonable accommodations which provide an equivalent level of
benefit to the applicant.
SECTION 4. Penalties. Violation of any provision of this Ordinance shall constitute a
misdemeanor and shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed $1,000 or by imprisonment in
County jail for not to exceed six (6) months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Each
and every day such a violation exists shall constitute a separate and distinct violation of this
Ordinance. In addition to the foregoing, any violation of this Ordinance shall constitute a
public nuisance and shall be subject to abatement as provided by all applicable provisions of
law.
SECTION 5. Severability. If any part or provision of this Ordinance or the application
to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of this Ordinance, including the
application of such part of provision to other persons or circumstances, shall not be affected
and shall continue in full force and effect. To this end, the provisions of this Ordinance are
severable.
SECTION 6. Urgency. Based on the findings set forth in Section 1 hereof, certain
group residential uses pose a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety and

Scope of Work
Program Implementation — Rehabilitation Loan Program
Public Inquiries: HP is able to provide off-site support to answer public inquiries
regarding the program.
2. Preliminary Interviews: HP has developed a "pre -application" form for the
purpose of screening applicants prior to providing a program application
package. The form is used to preliminarily determine owner and improvement
eligibility. In conjunction with phone and in person interviews (as necessary) this
will reduce the number of unqualified applicants.
3. Supporting Documentation: Provided the applicant's income qualifies and the
documentation is complete a "preliminary approval" can be made and the initial
property inspection can be performed shortly after application acceptance.
Following through with formal verifications can happen simultaneously with other
aspects of the program to keep the process from becoming stagnant
(verifications can sometimes take up to a month or more to complete, this time is
better used going to the next phase of the program process).
a. Credit Report: Completed at initial file set-up.
b. Verifications: Income and other verifications. Requested at initial file
set-up and completed during inspection and bidding process in
preparation for final loan approval.
c. Underwritinq: Title searches and appraisals can also coincide with the
bidding process.
4. Initial Inspection: Initial property inspections will check that the property is in
compliance with City building and zoning codes and HUD Housing Quality
Standards. When necessary the building jacket will be pulled for permit history.
All project work will fall within HIP and CDBG guidelines.
a. Environmental/SHPO Forms:
inspection.
b. Lead -Base Paint and Asbestos:
initial property inspection, once the
identified.
Forms are completed upon the initial
Inspections are ordered after the
scope and cost of work has been
5. Preparation of Work Write-Up/Cost Estimate: After the initial property
inspection the initial work write-up (WWU) and cost estimate will be ready in 5-7
days for Homeowner review. Once the Homeowner reviews and approves the
work scope a final copy for the bidding process will be prepared and a final Cost
Estimate will be prepared for the City.
a. Lead -Based Paint and Asbestos: The final WWU will not be completed
until the lead report has been completed so that any findings can be
incorporated into the WWU prior to going out to bid.
6. Contractor Selection: HP will coordinate a bid "walk-through" with contractors
and homeowner at one time, coordinated so that five contractors will be invited to
attend. A bid submission time of approximately two weeks will be allotted to
contractors. All submitted bids are compiled for owner review and contractor
selection.
HP maintains a list of contractors to assist homeowners in obtaining bids. All
Contractors have been cleared through the Federal Excluded Parties List System
and the State Contractor's License Board. They also maintain minimum
insurance requirements for Liability and Workman's' Compensation.
Homeowners are not limited to this list in any way and are encouraged to find
their own local contractor to bid on their project.
7. Contract Award and Document Execution: After contractor selection the loan
closing and pre -construction meeting is scheduled. HP will prepare all required
documentation. Owner, Contractor and Consultant meet at the City offices to
sign Construction and Loan Documents. Pre -construction meeting with the
contractor is held prior to funding document signing.
8. Construction Management: Construction time allotted is generally 30 — 60
calendar days; retention release is 30 days after completion of construction
and filing of "Notice of Completion" with the County Recorder.
a. Construction Monitorinq: HP construction contracts have a time limit and
liquidated damages written -in to help facilitate the completions of the
construction project in a timely manner.
b. Change Orders: must meet program requirements and receive City
Agency approval, Homeowner and Contractor signatures.
c. Progress and Final Payments: HP schedules progress inspections on a
once per week basis, for predictability and consistency of contractor
payments. Invoices from contractors are required and all work must
follow the written specifications in order to be paid. HP recommends that
City loan funds are deposited into an escrow account for quicker
contractor payment turn -around. All lien releases and any preliminary
notices are verified paid prior to the release of contractor retention.
7. Loan Portfolio Management: HP keeps a detailed database record of all loan
applicants, applicant eligibility, contractors and contracts, progress payments etc.
This will assist allow HP to easily reconcile with monthly statements from the
City's loan collection agent and preparation of the year-end loan report for the
City Finance Department and City Treasurer.
If HP assistance is needed with processing loan payoffs, processing demands,
reconveyances and any other paperwork necessary, this would be billed at an
hourly rate.
HP monthly progress/status reports are computer generated and emailed with
monthly invoices.
8. Construction and Program -Related Consultation: HP assumes and includes
any daily and normal borrower and contractor complaints and routinely document
complaints, delays, assisting with filing formal complaints with the CSLB etc. as
part of any construction project. Any additional time involved for time at court as
a witness would be billed at an hourly rate. Availability for auditor questions is
also part of any completed project; projects in progress may be another situation
and could be billed hourly.
The nature of rehabilitation projects is such that delays are commonplace in all areas of
the project from the initial property inspection to the final construction inspection.
Housing Programs (HP) understands that the timely completion of projects is paramount.
HP coordinates with the City, Homeowner and Contractor so that every step of the
process is streamlined in order to minimize the time a project can take. HP has
implemented the use of databases; log sheets and filing system to easily track projects
from start to finish to minimize unnecessary delays.
HP is also very amenable to City preferences when implementing a program.
City of Diamond Bar - Schedule of Service fees — Housing Programs
Housing Programs does not have hourly billing. All projects are billed according to the piece. The
