PUBLIC HEARINGS: 7:00 p.m. 7.1 A CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER VARIOUS ACTIONS PERTAINING TO SITE D (A SITE COMPRISED OF APPROXIMATELY 30.36 ACRES LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER. OF BREA CANYON ROAD AND DIAMOND BAR BOULEVARD, DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA (ASSESSOR PARCEL NUMBERS 8714-002-900, 8714- 002-901, 8714-002-902, 8714-002-903 AND 8714-015-001) INCLUDING GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2007-03, ZONE CHANGE NO 2007- 04, SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 2007-01 ("SITE D SPECIFIC, PLAN"), TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 70687, AND CONSIDERATION OF CERTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT 2007-02 (SCH NO. 2008021014). CDD/Gubman stated that most of the Council attended the V\1VUSD School Board meeting last Tuesday to hear Mr. Meuting provide the Board with the results of the Site D Community Workshop. Mr. Meuting's presentation concluded with the "consensus plan" which was created from the themes most consistently expressed in each of the seven group plans during the Workshop. The "consensus plan" reflects a general community preference for the development of Site D to be, residential with a park component. After receiving Mr. Meuting's report and public comments, NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 4 CITY COUNCIL the School Board continued the matter to tomorrow evening's Board meeting where it is expected that the School Board will make a formal request to the City. Council as to how the Site D planning process should proceed. Because the School Board's action is forthcoming, the School District has submitted a request that the City Council continue the matter to the City Council meeting of December 7. Although the "consensus plan" indicates a preference for residential with a park; Council is not being asked to provide any direction to staff tonight other than to continue the matter to December 7. Staff, does however, ask that the commercial component of the Specific Plan be explored further in light of the basis upon which the current draft of the Specific Plan was drafted, the community input received thus far, as well as, updated market feasibility considerations. The Specific Plan includes about 10 acres designated for commercial reflecting the City's economic development strategy as well as, the Site D MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) provision that the City prepares a Specific -Plan that consists of 50 percent residential/50 percent commercial. Staff recently commissioned Keyser Marston Associates t o update a n earlier market feasibility study to see how the commercial. viability of Site D has held up in light of the recent downturns in the economy. The results of the study were mixed concluding that Site D is still a viable location for a neighborhood retail center, but market conditions are not expected to support that prospect for at least another five to seven years. If the Council believes that the pros and cons of commercial development on Site D merits further study, staff can facilitate that dialogue. If, on the other hand, Council believes commercial should no longer be considered as part of the land use palate for Site D, staff would ask for appropriate direction so that it can make the necessary changes to this plan in related environmental documents. Staff recommends that the Council continue to receive public testimony, discuss the desirability of retaining commercial in the Specific Plan in light of the long-term economic outlook, and continue the matter to December 7. C/Chang referring to the study conducted in 2008 and the recently updated commercial portion of that study asked why there is a difference in the recommendation for commercial in 2008 and the current update. CDD/Gubman stated it was based on how developed the planning process was for the Site D Specific Plan in 2008. The MOU specified 50 percent commercial/50 percent residential for the roughly. 30 -acre site. However, while conducting the physical planning. for the site, taking into consideration the site topography and other site constraints, there is actually 20 net acres of buildable, acres on the land which when divided by -two- (2) results in the net 10 acres that is the basis for the 2010 update. NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 5 CITY COUNCIL C/Chang asked if there was more acreage dedicated, would it increase the viability of a larger commercial aspect. CDD/Gubman responded that a larger center would then be able to accommodate a larger scale development. C/Everett referring to the "composite" plan in the agenda packet asked CDD/Gubman to comment on what is a "consensus plan and what is a "composite" plan. CDD/Gubman described how the composite plan was achieved. He then stated that the facilitator looked at all of the comments, remarks and input to the discussion item that were presented to the groups in formulating their plans and listed them in order of most to least frequent and what the groups would like to see. Low density was one of the consistent components among all of the plans as well as, a park development. Using those responses resulted in the consensus plana C/Everett asked if the timeframe of five to seven years was the same perspective for commercial as residential CDD/Gubman responded that he did not have, a specific response. The 2008 Keyser Marston Associates report looked at commercial market opportunities citywide with Site D being one.of those study areas. The updated 2010 report focused on the commercial component as well. Staff did not look into the viability of the residential market or when it might be ready for development on Site D. M/Herrera reopened the Public Hearing at 7:34 p.m. Nancy Lyons, President; WVUSD, thanked the City Council and staff for their presence at the November 9 Board Meeting ,during which the community outreach meeting results were shared. Even though the Board understood that the City Council would not discuss this matter until their meeting of December 7, the Board understands staff's need to discuss and receive direction from the City Council. As previously planned and communicated the Board will be discussing these results tomorrow at its regular board meeting and will then submit a recommendation to the City Council for its December 7 Council meeting. Ms. Lyons then stated that the WVUSD Board requests that the City Council not make a determination tonight and consider doing so only after the Council has heard the District's recommendation. She asked that this matter be continued to December. 7to allow the School District more time to consider their proposal. Raul Galindo, a 40 -year D.B. resident, said he would like to see the City become more business friendly. He said that he had heard that both { NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 6 CITY COUNCIL Bristol Farms and Trader Joe's wanted to locate in D.B. but were not welcome. He felt that residents should spend their money here and would like to see a nice restaurant and good businesses here and not another strip mall. He sees D.B. residents using facilities for family events in other cities and believes they would appreciate having a, nice facility in D.B. Barbara Carrera said she would like to spend her dollars at a nice restaurant or shopping without having to travel to Brea and Chino Hills. Perhaps the Council would consider a community workshop to specifically discuss options for commercial establishments. She has faith that the Council will set sensible planning standards as it did at the Target location and asked that the Council consider what is best for all D.B. residents and not overlook a commercial component for Site D. David Busse, 21455 Ambushers Street, was encouraged by the community outreach for Site D. Residents do not want a commercial component. Greg Ogonowski, 21492 Cold Springs Lane, said he agreed with the previous speaker. He spent the afternoon getting 25 signatures from local D.B. businesses who felt they would suffer if Site D were zoned commercial. He said he would continue to gather signatures from local business owners. Sid Mousavi said that other cities in the region have been able to develop successful sites that include residential and so-called: commercial The City and School Board have done a good job engaging the community but needs to hear from the development community as well to.find out what they believe can be done with Site D. He also suggested that stakeholders be educated, on development opportunities for D.B. in order to create a vision for Site D. Unfortunately, D.B. suffers for having old developments and needs to incorporate a holistic approach to new development that encompasses residences and destination businesses. Greg Schokley, 3711 Crooked Creek, believed there isn't a Trader Joe's in D.B. because the permit process is too prohibitive. Site D is private property and can be developed; however, it does not mean that the City Council needs to be a party to the School Board's folly. Tommy Chang, a new resident, said he came to D.B. because of the great school system. He would like his son to have the opportunity to play .and eventually work in. D.B. and believes future planning should involve a lot of careful consideration about services that will cater. to young families. He stated that he drives a long way for services since moving from Los Angeles. NOVEMBER • 1 1 PAGE 7 CITY COUNCIL David Wu, 21252 E. Running Branch, asked if the crime rate was related to the number of apartments in the City. M/Herrera replied by stating that the only apartments in D.B. are those on Grand Avenue. Mr. Wu said he believes that the low crime rate was connected to the number of apartments which is why he moved to the City. He felt it was illegal for the School District to sell the land that was given to them by the government. CM/DeStefano responding to speakers stated that the re.was not a group of residents or.employees of D.B. that wanted a Trader Joe's more than the City Council and staff. It was just yesterday that he and CDD/Gubman met with a representative of a number of development companies to discuss. a specific site in D.B. and what they told the developer several times was that the City wanted a Trader Joe's. CM/DeStefano said that as the Community Development Director for D.B., he and his staff and the then City Council spent an . exhaustive amount of time pursuing Trader Joe's. D.B. has asked Trader Joe's to give D.B. consideration for many, many years. Each of these retailers has a set of standards that has been successful for them and in order to continue with that success they repeat the same requirements and requests for placement of stores in various communities. Trader Joe's has a store on Imperial Highway in Brea along with Home Depot and a variety of other, development on about 75 acres of commercial development. Trader Joe's has a store in San Dimas at Arrow Highway and SR57 across the parking lot from a Target and a variety of other stores on about 30 acres with about 250,000 square feet of retail space immediately adjacent to other developments. Trader Joe's locates in areas that meet its criteria that have substantial other assets that create a synergy that draws in customers for them and others. There has been a robust discussion and effort to bring Trader Joe's to the community. In his opinion, Site D is not a Trader Joe's location. Where. Trader Joe's might locate would be basically at Diamond Bar Boulevard and the SR 60 where Vons, Kmart and other stores are currently located. He did not want anyone to walk away from this meeting believing that a possibly misunderstood conversation at a public counter about a sign for Trader Joe's was some sort of dismissal on the partof the City with respect to Trader Joe's. A few years ago, the City distributed postcards to everyone that lived within about a five to 10 mile radius of D.B. The. City distributed over :40,000 postcards : with information. asking recipients to consider signing the postcard and sending it back to the City of D.B. asking Trader Joe's to build a store in this community. Surveys usually receive very little response; however, in this case, the City received 12,000 postcards back. Of those, two did not want a Trader Joe's. Council and staff took box loads of the postcards to Trader Joe's corporate headquartersin Monrovia and sat with executives to plead with them to follow the .lead that the NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE8 CITY COUNCIL residents were providing them and build a Trader Joe's in D.B. They chose not to. They ended up building a store in Chino Hills at Grand Avenue and the 71 freeway an area that already has a significant commercial base and a growing opportunity to incorporate more businesses. The problem that D.B. has is the synergy — the types, depth, breadth of stores that other surrounding areas already have that D.B. doesn't have. Chances for those kinds of larger developments requiring 100 or more acres are very limited. The ability for D.B. to attract the quality of some of the restaurants that were referenced, the Trader Joe's and those kinds of uses are frankly limited to only a few parts of D.B. The types of restaurants mentioned earlier, are not the types of candidates that would locate on Site D. They might locate on a redeveloped Kmart property without Kmart there, but they would not locate on Site D because the synergy, size, scale, traffic counts, etc. do not exist at the Site D location for those types of retail businesses. Site D offers a different kind of commercial opportunity to capture retail that is embraced by the freeway customer, to capture opportunities from area residential communities who. are still looking for a place to purchase groceries, restaurants, drugstores, etc. is a different type of opportunity. D.B. has a history of going after significant retail/restaurant opportunities. An earlier speaker mentioned Bristol Farms. D.B. almost had Bristol Farms in The Country Hills Towne Center which is now the Diamond Hills Plaza. The then Mayor Bob Zirbes was passionate about revitalizing the Country Hills Towne Center and D.B. had Trader Joe's, Henry's, Bristol Farms, Gelson's and others looking at that property. D.B. got close with Henry's but obviously none of that worked out. He would not want anyone believing that staff and the City Council was not looking out for the community's interest and responding to the community's requests over the years, through various surveys for better retail and restaurant opportunities. D.B. has been very passionate about a number of land uses and bringing them into the City. CM/DeStefano stated that staff is looking for direction from the City Council. There is an economic strategy that talks about commercial development on a portion of Site D which CDD/Gubman referenced. The same strategy talks about commercial enhancements on the Kmart property and a couple of other properties where it seems obvious that staff should be looking at'retail/restaurant opportunities and capturing some e of the land uses speakers say they are looking for. In short, the City has a strategy that says . it should be doing: is a policy direction the Council gives the City Manager who asks his staff to implement. There is a MOU with the School District that says that both the School District and the City are working together on 50 percent, of the site being residential and 50 percent being. commercial. That is a policy document of the City Council .that the City . Manager and staff are implementing. The City has a Specific Plan that has been crafted in order to implement-. the MOU and the City, has made other decisions in the past specifically with respect to Site D NOVEMBER . 16, 2010 PAGE CITY COUNCIL that is leaning toward a commercial development there. Recently, the City had an application from the School District, neighborhood outreach,. numerous meetings and many public comments that seem to lean against a commercial development. The City Council has decisions to make as a result of the outreach session, its own public hearings and deliberations. Does the City Council fundamentally wish to continue with the 50/50 proposal with a commercial development proposal on Site D or does it wish to change course. The City's regional/national economics have changed since some of those documents were put into place. A few years ago commercial would have been more likely on Site D and would have come faster. Today, commercial is going to take five to seven years on Site D. Does the City Council have a continued wish to wait for the market to come back for a successful commercial venture on Site D or change course and move toward a residential project for the benefits that it may bring to the community and to the neighborhood. What staff is looking for is an affirmation of the current strategy (commercial) or a change in that strategy. Staff does not need an answer this evening but it needs an answer soon because there are documents staff will need to prepare in order for Council to make its final decision sometime early next year. The Sch . ool District will be talking about this tomorrow night and may come to the Council on December 7 and ask that the 50/50 plan be maintained or some other land use strategy they are proposing as the applicant and owner of 29 of the 30 acres. Staff is asking that Council commence a dialogue concluded on December 7 and give staff some direction. M/Herrera stated that she remembers that years ago the City could not talk Starbucks into coming to D.B. and locating on Grand Avenue until the City pointed out that there were 35,000 cars that passed that spot on a daily basis. Only then was Starbucks interested in coming to D.B. and only then would they consent to locate in D.B.- which is part of the synergy CM/DeStefano speaks to. While some may not like the traffic, if the City is trying to be fiscally sound and keep the health of its businesses, the City needs the traffic to some extent. MPT/Tye felt it was inappropriate for Council to take any further action until hearing from the School Board. However, he. is beginning to understand that people around Site D feel like they are not being listened to. He understands that this goes back a long way. He remembers when Lewis Homes had the option to purchase the property. He had a conversation with David Lewis and wanted to know why Lewis Homes did not exercise the option. He was told that it was because they did not have a Specific Plan that would allow them to produce a product that would be economically viable for them. A plan is submitted to the Planning Commission for a 50/50 project, the community comes to be heard and after I listening tospeakers the Planning Commission works in a 3 -acre park and then recommends it to the City Council., Residents, come to the NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 10 CITY COUNCIL City Council and say they have not had much input and that they would like to have some input because they are not sure that one half residential and one half commercial is appropriate. The School District puts together a presentation and workshop that gave the public a chance to be heard. None of the seven groups that participated in the workshop and presented their vision were passionate about having commercial and that gets back to what the City Council sees is good for D.B. and what is good for ALL of D.B. MPT/Tye does not think a 10 -acre development is going to be a difference maker for D.B. He has asked and had no response to his question — if it is going to be 10 -acres of commercial what do you see there that will be successful. He personally felt the City should get a rebate on the presentation from Keyser Marston Associates because he did not believe the City needed a consultant to tell it that taxable sales in the City are extremely low; retail sales are below the County and State averages. D.B. needs taxable dollars — that is what makes this community able to afford its programs and worth moving to from LA, for example. The issue is not whether the property was bought by,WVUSD and the issue is not whether it was given to them. The issue is that the School District owns the property. It is their property and they have decided that Site D is surplus property. He challenged anyone that felt this school district was not in serious financial straits through any doing of their own. Actually, it has to do with the State of California taking away $20 million from the School District's budget over the past three years. Just in the immediate area from Pomona down through Rowland Heights, the State has cut $100 million from education which is unconscionable. If a school district has an asset and they want to utilize that asset to benefit the school district, should they not be permitted to do so? One of the reasons people move to D.B. is for the schools and it has terrific schools in both school districts. He took exception to the speaker who said the property did not belong to the District, that it belonged to all of the residents. In fact, Site D does NOT belong to all of the residents. It belongs to the residents that live in the WVUSD because it is a WVUSD asset and they need to be able to utilize assets that will best accomplish their goals and school districts are in the business of education. So, how does that get done? He would prefer that the City focus on larger acreage areas where there can be an impact. He commented on the Keyser Marston Associates proposal for commercial and said he did not foresee any of the big box stores and restaurants locating on Site D. He felt the site would be better served by following the resident's example and agreed with how Mr. Busse stated his feelings. Bottom line is that he believed the Council should wait until the School District expressed their wishes and then deliberate about what to do about Site D. C/Chang felt that Keyser. Marston Associates was looking at the 10 -acre , parcel in Walnut on Grand and Valley where there is a TJ Max and felt that the Council should not eliminate any options at this point. She has participated in many community forums, and one does, not, draw NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 11 CITY COUNCIL conclusions from one five-hour outreach meeting because it is not necessarily a fair and equal indicator of what the community wants. She heard from many residents who could not be present for the outreach meeting and felt it was unreasonable to draw analogies and possible conclusions from that one episode. Referencing the Mayor's example about Starbucks originally not considering locating in D.B. and then reconsidering, times are changing and perhaps Trader Joe's, Mothers or Gelson's might decide to come to D.B. once they explored the market. Like the economy, the market is changing and . we should not be shortsighted by basing a decision on the economy or begin to contemplate what is best for D.B. in the long term. One speaker said he got 25 businesses to sign a petition but she believes in the free market. If businesses are afraid of that corner being occupied by commercial, it may mean that commercial could potentially be successful at that location. D.B. sets the standards for development. She understands that people are concerned about what will happen on Site D but has the City really explored the potential for this site. People driving from Orange County regularly exit on Diamond Bar Boulevard which increases traffic counts. There are a lot of options to explore and all issues should be aired regarding all options and more public outreach conducted. Folks who participated in the outreach groups are saying what they want and the Council is having a discussion based on what Council Members are being told without exploring all options. How does the City know that 100 percent residential would garner the most revenue for the school district? Perhaps one-half of the property could be sold for residential and the other half could be leased out. She feels an obligation to represent all of the residents and needs to make the right decision and wants to continue the dialogue and not close out this option. She does not want an ugly strip mall for that property nor does she want empty storefronts, but there are many different things cities have done. Obviously, this corner is conducive to commercial and perhaps ` the City could explore senior housing. This is a prime location that should be very carefully considered for all options and encouraged to continue dialogue through community workshops to explore all options. C/Everett said he wanted to hear more and wanted to hear from the School District first. To speak on this matter seems to him to be a bit disrespectful to the School District. However, he wants to let the community know that he is looking down the road for at least 20 years. He challenged everyone to consider what was presented for consideration this evening and to take a look at the graphics on Page 22 and look at the composite plan and the consensus plan.. There was a commercial component in Group 5 but even more, the green space is outstanding. Probably 90 percent or more agree on park and/or green space and he wily fight for green space. Part of green space is trails and he sees interesting trail potentials as he views the composite plan which is different from the consensus plan. The other point is that this is a focal/entry point, NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 12 CITY COUNCIL to D.B..and should be a primary concern for all residents and those who pass through the City. He appreciated the business signatures because they are important and the Council is thinking about that as well in the overall scheme. He appreciated Mr. Mousavi's thoughts and wondered if the City had looked into urban village and urban community options. Every time he thinks about D.B. he is proud of Target and Vantage Homes projects in which he played no part, and feels that Site D will develop over a number of years in its own fashion. He agreed with Mr. Wu that apartments can present a problem for public safety. D.B. does not have many apartments and he did not expect that to be a viable option for Site D. Participants in the outreach workshop were 90 plus percent from the immediate region and there has been repeated requests that hearings for this project be advertized citywide because people from all of D.B. need to give their input. C/Tanaka said he had ideas he was considering but wanted to hear from the School District. There may be other developers who have opinions about how this property could be developed and there are developments in other cities that D.B. has not considered. Ultimately, his decision will be made after the close of the public hearing with all information received and whatever decision is made will be best for all residents of D.B. M/Herrera said it is a fact that D.B., has been focused on economic development. It may or may not be generally known that D.B. does not have a Redevelopment Agency and D.B. is not able to compete with cities that has a Redevelopment Agency and brings businesses into the community. Several years ago the City Council committed to focusing on economic development and allocated $10 million toward that effort. D.B. has conducted outreach to various types of businesses in an attempt to offer incentives to bring them to the City.. One such effort was to purchase the one acre that lies contiguous to Site D that runs along Brea Canyon Road. The City purchased that property a few years ago to enhance the commercial development and have access to that commercial development via Diamond Bar Boulevard and Brea Canyon Road making the property more valuable to a commercial developer. It was not the City's intent to usurp the School District's opportunity. to make its decision tomorrow. This hearing today had been continued from October 19 and was publicly announced so the Council was locked into discussing the matter again today. She understands that her colleagues want to continue thinking about the matter and continue receiving input from residents and most certainly hear what the School Board has to say in rendering their final decision tomorrow. This public hearing will be continued to December 7. C/Chang moved, MPT/Tye seconded; to continue the Public Hearing to consider various actions pertaining to Site D to December 7, 2010. Motion carried by the following Rall Call vote: NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 13 1 CITY COUNCIL AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: 8. COUNCIL CONSIDERATION: None 9. Chang, Everett, Tanaka, MPT/Tye, M/Herrera. None None COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS/COUNCIL MEMBER COMMENTS: C/Everett attended the D.B. Library Recognition and Appreciation Luncheon and the City's Eco Expo. He encouraged residents to speak with Representative Curt. Hagman (909-627-7021) and Senator Bob Huff (916-651-4029). He also stated that this past Saturday evening he attended the Diamond. Bar Community Foundation's Annual Gala Event Fundraiser at the Diamond Bar Center. C/Tanaka reported on the Neighborhood Improvement Program subcommittee he and MPT/Tye attended and thanked staff for their input. The discussion included trash, inoperable vehicles, landscaping, home maintenance_ problems, etc. Several Council Members attended the Friends of the Library "Library Appreciation Luncheon He attended the WVUSD School Board meeting during which the Site D workshop was discussed. He attended the PUSD Board. meeting during which the electronic report cards for kindergarten grades were discussed. Wednesday, D.B. recognized Veterans with twelve, new Veterans being honored and 9 banners being returned to those who are back. Saturday he attended the annual Diamond Bar Community Foundation Gala Fundraiser. and congratulated Waste Management on being named the Community Partner for 2010. This afternoon he attended the D.B. Senior Citizens Thanksgiving luncheon and the ribbon -cutting ceremony at the D.B. Smiles Dental Office. He acknowledged D.B. Leo's who visited veterans at the Long Beach and Loma Linda Veterans' Hospitals and wished everyone a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving Holiday. C/Chang reiterated that residents can follow her activities on Twitter and Facebook. She reported on attending the League/Legislative Reception in downtown LA; the Alameda Corridor East Sunset Avenue Grade Separation; Veterans Recognition Celebration; chaperoned at the D134 -Youth Middle School Dance at the Diamond Bar Center; Emceed the Diamond Bar Community Foundation's Annual Gala Fundraiser and commended the Board for the fabulous event. She also attended the ribbon -cutting ceremonies at D.B. Smiles. She thanked Jody Roberto and Raul Galindo for their dedication to the City and wished everyone a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving. MPT/Tye commended the Diamond Bar Community Foundation on the successful Gala event and their support of the "Through My. Lens" program. Veterans' Day is always very touching and especially touching to give banners back to service personnel following their service.. The School District's presentation last night was a good presentation on the community: outreach. He NOVEMBER 16, 2010 PAGE 14 , CITY 'COUNCIL suggested that Mr. Meuting make his presentation to the Council, if appropriate. He thanked Sheriffs personnel for keeping crime statistics on a downward turn in D.B. He thanked CM/DeStefano for his guidance and management of the City and as well as having a good relationship with public safety personnel. He thanked the City's Neighborhood Improvement officers for doing a great job keeping the community looking good. He loved the way Pastor Jones started this evening by talking about how important it is to be thankful. It takes much more to be thankful than it does to be a critic and what a great time to be thankful as we approach Thanksgiving next week. Let us be thankful and remember to thank a Vet for the freedoms we have. And let us all enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving with our families. M/Herrera stated that most or all Council Members regularly attend the many events taking place throughout the City. The most significant for her in the past two weeks was the Veterans' Day Celebration and particularly those residents who are World War 11 Veterans. One young woman was a former Marine who was the only one from her city who joined the Marines and served in WWII. It was nice retiring flags to those who had returned home safely. D.B. is a great City that enjoys a very low crime rate thanks to the Sheriffs Department and a dedicated staff and all who work to make D.B. a great place to live. She wished everyone a good Thanksgiving.

Motion by VC/Owens, second by C/Roberto. Without objection, the motion was so ordered. 2. INFORMATIONAL ITEMS 2.1 RECREATION PROGRAM UPDATE — RS/Murphey presented staffs report. C/Roberto asked if the Chaparral gymnasium would be used for future programs. RS/McKitrick said he had every intention of requesting the facility again. Chair/Grundy said he liked the pictures in the program update. VC/Owens asked if there were different levels of competition in the adult basketball program and RS/McKitrick responded that this season he has five levels and explained each level. VC/Owens asked if the officials were Certified CIF and RS/McKitrick responded that all officials are Certified CIF. C/Rob,erto asked if the program was for residents only or included non- residents. RS/McKitrick said he could not -give an estimate regarding the players but when he looked into it a few months back, 18 of.the 34 teams had managers or assistant managers that were from D.B. He believed that most of the players were from other cities. C/Roberto asked if the program resulted in a deficit* every year and CSD/Rose said that philosophically, D.B. does not recover the cost for the facility. Chair/Grundy asked how security was provided. for and performed at the Diamond Bar Center before the new security company, Access Control, was hired. RS/Murphey responded that there was a different firm that provided the same basic service. Chair/Grundy asked if there .was a reason to change firms or if this was a result of the normal process of going out to bid. RS/Murphey responded that staff was not entirely happy with the service provided by the previous firm and it was time to reassess the service provided. C/Hemdon said he noticed that there were 174 registered for the fall sessions at the time the report was prepared and wanted to know the final count. RS/Murphey said there is not a final count for fall but registration is up to about 500. C/Herndon asked for clarification of the $1 :per official per game. RS/McKitrick explained that the officials are. paid in cash on site. C/Hemdon said he meant the team fees. CS D/Rose said the fees were significantly increased abouta Year ago. The City, previously. included the league fees in the payment to the officials,.,and took out $200 that was have. to pay that .paid. to the officials. Currently, the teams SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 PAGE 3 P&R COMMISSION amount directly to the officials which reduced the fee collected by the City that goes directly to expenses. If the fees were included, the total would be $560 instead of $360. C/Hemdon asked if the fees for adult volleyball had been reviewed recently and CSD/Rose responded "no." It is market driven and there are not many people involved in the program; therefore, an increase would likely price the program out of existence. C/Roberto asked if the City had conducted surveys of adjacent cities' pricing structures and CSD/Rose said staff reviews all area programs and compare fees. 2.1.1 PowerPoint Presentation — Youth Baseball — RS/McKitrick presented staff's report. Chair/Grundy asked if the City provides food for the annual awards banquet. RS/McKitrick said that each team brings their own food for the day. Chair/Grundy asked how many people were present. RS/McKitrick estimated 250-300. VC/Owens said he was impressed with the number of people who attended. 2.2 Parks Report — PMS/Jordan C/Hemdon said he spoke with C/Tye who asked if anyone did a walk-thru of Lorbeer. C/Tye said he was in the area and observed a significant amount of water on parts of the track. This evening, C/Hemdon visited the site and observed water on areas of the track and observed standing water in the long jump area. He also observed bare spots at the center of the 50 yard line and at each end at about the 20 yard line. He asked the coach if he could move the kids away from those areas. C/Hemdon asked if there. was some way the City could coordinate with the coaches and Pop Warner to get their cooperation to not utilize those areas. PIVIS/Jordan said staff could make that suggestion. The difficulty with school users is that they have regular programs they run each day and one of their favorite activities is kicking -field goals during PE, which explains the bare -spots at the 20 yard line. Staff has discussed these issues with the school but there is little that can be done. He said he would make the suggestion again. C/Hemdon asked if *Lorbeer should be added to the park walk-thrus and PMS/Jordan said it could be; however, the extent of the City's responsibilities are confined to the football field and restroom maintenance. Also, the. walk-thru would have to be scheduled during non-use time. C/Hemdon said he thought it might be a good idea. 2.2.1 Power Point Presentation —,Recent Park Walk-Thrus — PIV18/Jordan presented staffs report. Regarding the issue of deteriorated.i rubber surface at the . playground area at Peterson Park, Chair/Grundy asked if there was any consideration to removing the rubberized surface and: using wood chips. PMS/Jordan said it could be done; however, it is not SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 PAGE 4 P&R COMMISSION simply a matter of removing the rubber; there. is a concrete substructure under the rubber. The rubber is about 12 years old and it would probably be more cost effective to replace it with rubber. Regarding the issue of the paint being scraped off, the steel rails by skateboarders at Sycamore Canyon Park, C/Hemdon stated he thought the rail would be an on-going problem.. If a skateboarder fell off and injured himself, he wanted to know if the City would have a liability problem? PMS/Jordan said he could not say that the City would be held liable. C/Herndon asked if staff could make the rails on an uneven surface to make it less attractive to skateboarders. PMS/Jordan responded that devices called "skate stoppers" come- in. many forms and a skate stopper rail would be stainless steel or steel band that could be strapped onto the rail so it would not provide a skating surface. The larger issue is the composition (galvanized steel) of the rail which is not paint friendly and even areas not damaged by skateboarders are suffering. Generally, skateboard activity is on the rails adjacent to the stairs Nothing will totally eliminate the need for maintenance. A better option would be to strip the galvanized hand rails of the paint altogether, which would be a major undertaking and . not aesthetically pleasing. The best option is probably to use skate stoppers and continue painting the rail. C/Herndon said he would recommend that staff evaluate the skate stoppers. Regarding scratched in graffiti in the facility bathroom mirrors, C/Hemdon asked if the stainless steel mirrors.were necessary to have in the restrooms at the parks. PMS/Jordan said that if the facility is going to have a mirror, stainless steel is the only option. That example of graffiti is probably the worst in the City and the damage has occurred over several years. PMS/Jordan felt the mirrors were beneficial because a sufficient, number of people appreciate having a mirror in the restroom. 2.3 CIP Projects — CSD/Rose presented staff's report. .1. Silver Tip Park - CSID/Rose reported that the Silver Tip Park design is going to the City Council during a study session on October 5. As soon as staff receives Council approval, work on construction documents will commence. 2. Washington Street Mini -Park — This project is with the architect as part of plan check. Staff hopes to have final approval of the construction documents soon and take.the project to bid. 3. Larkstone Park The developer, Lewis Homes, submitted their documents for the third time for plan check. Irrigation and planning plans have been approved.. If.the plans come, back in the next week or Jwo after Lowis.Homes p ays,some fees owed, the plan check process Will. begin again. SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 PAGE 5 P&R COMMISSION 4. Sycamore Canyon Creek Repair - CSD/Rose reported that there are two issues in Sycamore Canyon Creek that need to be addressed. One is in the undeveloped portion of the park immediately adjacent to the beginning of the trail near the storage yard. The creek wants to flow straight rather than conform to the original 90 -degree turn design and during the heavy storms of 2005, a significant amount of dirt was eroded. Staff will engage a consultant to provide recommendations for stopping the erosion. Funding for this year is for design work only. During the budget process next year, staff will make its recommendation for work to be done. The second area is by the tot lot which was flooded last year. Staff anticipates putting a seating wall between the tot lot and the creek to help keep the water from overflowing into the tot lot. 5) Sycamore Canyon Trail — Phase IV - CSD/Rase stated that he received the plans this afternoon.- The documents are partially approved and the last piece is from the geotechnical engineer. The architect will need to make some changes to a portion of the plan that will require import of soil at the retaining wall. C/Herndon asked if the Washington Street Mini -Park plans were what the Commission had reviewed and CSD/Rose responded yes. Chair/Grundy said, he thought there were a couple of options, such as the painted tiles/handprints. CSD/Rose stated that staff has the tiles and when the ground -breaking ceremonies are held, individuals will be invited to the location to design the tiles. Chair/Grundy asked what size a creek needs to be for the Fish & Game Department to become involved and CSD/Rose responded that if the. creek is on a map as a blue -line stream, the Department has jurisdiction. Sycamore Canyon Creek is a year-round . stream and the Department will have input on construction that affects the stream. 3. OLD BUSINESS: None 4. NEW BUSINESS: None 5. ANNOUNCEMENTS: C/Roberto thanked staff for the reports. He congratulated the volunteens who appeared for recognition. this evening. He askedfor comment on the survey that was mailed to homeowners. CSD/Rose explained that a survey was mailed to 10,000 addresses in the City which is a follow-up survey to a 400 home telephone survey that was done last spring. The purpose of. the survey is to see if there is a desire in the community, and at the City Council level, for a .parcel tax that would be dedicated to improvements recommended within the Parks Master. Plan. C/Roberto asked how.many homes would be affected by a parcel tax. CSD/Rose said the consultant proposes the parcel tax would affect 21,000 parcels within the City including about 17,000 single family residences, commercial properties and multi -family residences at SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 PAGE 6 P&12 COMMISSION different values. C/Roberto asked if the survey company was attempting to achieve a certain dollar threshold and CSD/Rose responded no, that it was to determine what threshold the community would support. Chair/Grundy said he was surprised that the Commission had not heard about this effort during the past year. CSD/Rose said the matter was being handled at the City Council level. CM/DeStefano, who was in the audience, came forward to provide additional information and to answer questions from the Commissioners. C/Herndon said this.was a very informative meeting and it was wonderful to have the young people present and see them enthusiastic about the City's programs. He congratulated staff on all they do to make these programs .happen. VC/Owens thanked PMS/Jordan for the park tour. He attended, the Diamond Bar Day at the Fair and had a good time. D.B. was well represented. -Also, he recalled that the Parks Master Plan had a 5, 10 and 15 year implementation plan included which he thought would be helpful in addressing the funding. With priorities listed every five years that included dollar amounts, any anxiety in the community would be lessened. Chair/Grundy said it was a very informative meeting. Great job everyone.

Silver Tip Park CSD/Rose stated. that I on October 5, 2010, City Council approved the concept plan previously approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission. Architerra Design Group is working on the construction documents and expects to have them back to staff by the end of November for plan check. Staff anticipates construction by spring 2011. $300,000 has been budgeted for improvements. 2. Washington Street Mini-Pa.rk — The Consultant has the plans back once again. Staff is working with the new Building Official/consultant RKA, which has finished its work. The design consultant is making the corrections for another round of plan check. Staff expects to get these plans back by the end of November as Well. 3. Larkstone Park — The plans went through the third round of plan check. Apparently,, Lewis Homes needs to do the grading plan for the entire project, which includes Larkstone. Park. ' The Public Works Department will not conduct any further plan check until the entire grading plan Js provided. Public Works expects it will take at least two years to receive a gradin.9 plan due to the economy. 4. Sycamore Canyon,Creek Repair — There. is` an, extreme amount of OCTOBER 28, 2010 PAGE 3 P&R COMMISSION erosion in the creek immediately adjacent to the trail in the undeveloped area of the park. If nothing is done to mitigate the erosion, it will eventually invade the trail and wipe it out in that area. Staff has interviewed three consultants who responded to the RFP to obtain ideas about what should be done. One idea is to use caged rock and anchor them to prevent further erosionat the 90 -degree turn. The second area of erosion is by the tot lot and since the improvements were completed, the water went over the bank and flooded the tot lot. The discussion for mitigating this scenario is to install some type of seating wall to help protect the tot lot and keep the water from overflowing its bank. Currently, staff is considering what the 'design would look like and is in the process of selecting the consultant to help with this work. Most likely this matter will go to Council early December with an effort to obtain funding. for construction for next year. 5. Sycamore Canyon Trail — Phase IV —This project has not yet come back to staff from plan check. Leighton & Associates has approved the plan but has not yet stamped the plans. With these small corrections, this project will soon be ready to go out to bid. 3. OLD BUSINESS: None 4. NEW BUSINESS: 4.1 Commission Meeting Schedule for. November and December. Commissioners concurred to meet on November 18 and defer the decision for the December 2010 meeting until November 18. ANNOUNCEMENTS: C/Herndon commended staff on their work and cited, in particular, the grant work for parks and trails. Trails have been vastly improved through the grants and he has observed an increase in use as a result. At the last meeting CM/DeStefano offered to provide a tour of the new city hall facility which he would like to do and suggested it could be done during the next meeting. CSD/Rose offered to attempt to coordinate a tour at 6:15 p.m. on November 18. Once the time is confirmed, Commissioners will be notified. VC/Owens echoed C/Herndon regarding staff's efforts on grants. He asked if CSC/Meyers wrote the grants and CSC/Meyers responded that she does. He liked the visual contained in the packet. He wants to continue, to pursue the issue regarding the 5tn 6tn 7tn and Stn grades in youth basketball use there are more than 400 kids not being served. CSD/Rose responded that VC/Owens was correct in citing facilities cost as part of the program because the program is. subsidized. C/Liang stated he enjoyed staff's reports and thanked them for their hard work. C/Roberto. said that at the last meeting there was discussion about' a potential parcel tax increase based on a survey that was being conducted and he asked if the Commissioners could receive updates on that matter. CSD/Rose responded that staff had received the results of the survey and the results do not favor, having a measure. The phone survey showed about a 58 percent support and OCTOBER 28, 2010 PAGE 4 P&R COMMISSION the mail -in survey resulted in a 35-39 percent support. As a result, the subcommittee and the consultant are recommending that the City not move forward with a measure. Chair/Grundy asked a question regarding the survey. He wanted to know if there is no assessment, where that would leave the Parks Master Plan. CSD/Rose said that in talking with the subcommittee yesterday, their goal was that this document is a plan and not a promise. When you have a plan, you seek funding to fulfill the plan but do not start building projects without funding in place. Chair/Grundy stated if there is some, problem with the current version of the plan, the City should work toward making progress on whatever those issues are, but he did not want this to be at a standstill.. Every meeting he will ask what the City is doing to move this plan forward. CSD/Rose said that he hoped one of the things staff will be asked to do when it gets to the Commission is to look at the different type of projects and make priority lists so that as funding becomes available, the list can be pursued. VC/Owens said he was concerned that there had been a lot of work put into this document and a lot of community involvement and to have this sit on the shelf will cause anxiety. He felt it needed to be adopted as part of the City's General Plan and suggested applying for grants to put it into effect. C/Herndon recalled that CM/DeStefano's concern was that the City has an elaborate plan that might build up expectations a ' nd if nothing happens it could be a big disappointment to the residents. C/Herndon felt that if the document could be broken down into priorities that funding could be pursued. Chair/Grundy thanked staff for all of the wonderful work on the City's parks, etc and on its presentations to the Commission. ADJOURNMENT: C/Hemdon moved, VC/Owens seconded, to adjourn the meeting. With no further business before the Parks & Recreation Commission, Chair/Grundy adjourned the meeting at 7:52 p.m. The foregoing minutes are hereby approved this day of 12010.

' CITY COUNCIL Agenda # 6.5 Meeting Date: 1210712010 AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and Members a,f e City Council VIA: James DeStefano, City Manag , r V TITLE: APPROVAL OF APPLICATION TO BE RECERTIFIED AS A TREE CITY USA FOR 2010 (10TH YEAR) AND AUTHORIZATION FOR THE MAYOR TO SIGN THE APPLICATIONS. RECOMMENDATION: Approve. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None BACKGROUND: Staff has prepared applications for Tree City USA. The National Arbor Day Foundation, in cooperation with the United States Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters, recognizes towns and cities across America that meet the four standards of the Tree City USA program. The four standards are: 1) establishing a department to oversee the tree maintenance program; 2) establishing a community tree ordinance; 3) establishing a forestry program with an annual budget of at least $2 per capita; and 4) proclaiming and celebrating Arbor Day in Diamond Bar. The City of Diamond Bar received its first distinction of being recognized as a Tree City USA in 2001 and has maintained its designation each year since by successfully meeting the standards ofthe recertification process. DISCUSSION: On November 20, 2001, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 03 (2001, establishing the community forestry program and designating the Community Services Department as the department responsible for the tree maintenance program. The adoption of this ordinance meets standards one and two for Tree City USA. On June 2, 2009 the City Council adopted the 2009/10 FY budget, which includes $177,795 funding related to tree maintenance. This along with tree donations and volunteer hours for Arbor Day meets the third standard, appropriation of at least $2 per capita (or about $120,000 minimum) for annual tree maintenance costs. The fourth standard was met when the City Council proclaimed April 23, 2010 Arbor Day in Di ' amond Bar and a celebration on that date was conducted at Pantera Elementary School.

FISCAL IMPACT: None BACKGROUND: It has been the policy of the City of Diamond Bar that public hearings begin at 7:00 PM, or as soon thereafter as may be heard. At several recent meetings the City Council has concluded its ceremonial and regular business, and been ready to begin the public hearing prior to 7:00 PM. However, since the public hearings have been publicly noticed to begin at 7:00 PM, the Council has had to delay the scheduled public hearing by moving on to other agenda items. This has unintended consequence of requiring the participants and the public to unnecessarily wait to begin the public hearing process. Staff is therefore recommending that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2010 -XX Establishing the Day and Time of City Council Meetings and Rescinding Resolution No. 2001-46 in Its Entirety to allow public hearings to be heard after 6:30 p.m., or as soon thereafter as may be heard. ,Prepared by: Asst.

Our staff has conducted a preliminary job walk and has prepared the following project design approach and recommendations for the Residential Area 7& Arterial Zone 5 Road Maintenance Project. This project is anticipated to rehabilitate a total of 19.5 centerline miles of residential, collector and arterial streets primarily using slurry seal and chip seal methods. Given our experience with the City of Diamond Bar and our understanding of such residential zone rehabilitation projects, we understand that it is our responsibility to recommend the best rehabilitation method based on the pavement investigation report, existing field conditions and. allotted project budget. If is anticipated that in areas of extreme degradation, an asphalt overlay, or full width grind and replacement, will be recommended depending on funding availability. Also included in the design of this project is the identification of localized AC R&R patches, damaged curb & gutter and uplifted/non ADA compliant sidewalks.. It is our intention to conduct a full breadth field survey and preliminary recommendation for the City of Diamond Bar in order to ensure that the full scope of work is initially identified. Our staff has had decades of experience analyzing, reviewing and preparing such scopes of work and the City of Diamond Bar can be confident in the quality of our work and level of dedication. To ensure that the City's project proceeds smoothly, Onward Engineering has prepared the following general project approach: In review of this design project, we have identified the following three phases: Review, Analysis and Production. By recognizing the key elements of each phase and focusing on accurately and efficiently conducting the necessary tasks within that phase, our staff will ensure that the City of Diamond Bar receives the best design product. 1, At project inception, our, staff will focus on reviewing all necessary project material in order to set the project up for success. Our review is, not limited to existing records and field conditions, but also includes meeting with City staff, stakeholders and utility companies as required to ensure that the full scope, intention and impact of this project is understood prior to the start of the actual design. Onward Engineering provides a level of dedication and commitment that is unrivaled in the industry, and we believe that it all starts with having open lines of communication in order to understand the full, scope of our clients' needs. We believe that the project inception and review stage is critical to the success of a project. We commit to conducting all necessary meetings with City staff, a full breadth field invesfigafion, existing records investigations, utility coordination and a Pavement Management Report review to ensure project success starting at project inception, lip Section 3: Project Design Page 1 11 g 3 City of Diamond Bar m ° m Residential Area 7 and Arterial Zone 5 Maintenance Project (Design) Once the project review phase is complete, our staff will focus on analyzing obtained data in order to provide the city with the desired full scope of the project within the allotted budget. The analysis phase requires the coordinated efforts of seasoned engineers, data analysts and city administrators. Our engineers will analyze the pavement management reports, existing pavement conditions and anticipated traffic loading to recommend the best rehabilitation methods and materials for the project. Our staff of excellent analysts and designers will review and provide support to our engineers to ensure that necessary data is available. Finally, because our staff is largely made up of former City Administrators, Engineers and County Engineering Division Managers, we have the public understanding and experience to navigate the political arena, budget management and cost justification for, the recommended scope of work. Our staff will constantly be testing the financial Viability of the project as it fits the City's budget to ensure that the final design is both the best design recommendation and fitting to the allotted budget. J Once the analysis has been completed, our staff will focus on producing clear and efficient bid documents to ensure that the City, receives the best bids and construction project possible. Clarity of bid specifications is essential for the success of the construction phase of the project. We believe that the quality of a bid.package can be found in the correlation of the technical text throughout the document. In order to guarantee a smooth construction phase, it is critical that the slurry/chip seal specifications, asphalt gradation, paint specifications and working hour/method stipulations are properly stated in the specifications: Also, it is critical that the wording in the bid schedule, payment clause and the work item table correlate, so that there is no room for confusion or error. What sets us apart is our attention to detail, which facilitates a smooth and seamless construction project for the, City of Diamond Bar. We believe that we are the most fitting consultant for the City of Diamond Bar on this 04- project because we understand the City's needs and have extensive experience in the 0-0 design and management of similar design projects. Our project team is guaranteed to provide the highest level of services and dedication to the City throughout the various phases of this project. In order to show our understanding and dedication to the City, the L r �c hIriwn hAAn nrpnnn=H to riPscrihe sur findinas during our preliminary field City of Diamond Bar m a o ®© o a ® Residential Area 7 and Arterial Zone 5 Maintenance Project (Design) A preliminary review of the arterial roadways proposed for rehabilitation shows that they are 0 currently in favorable condition. The total average weighted PCI for the slated arterial roadways is approximately 78, which classifies the roadways as "good." This means that the current rehabilitation methods of slurry and cape seal will suffice for those roadways. The following describes each portion of this project and its identifying characteristics. ZONE'S' BREA CANYON ROAD This portion of the Zone 5 Roadway Slurry Program traverses on Brea Canyon Road from the, Southern City Limits to Pathfinder Road. As can be seen both p 0 from visual inspection and through reference of the - provided PCI report, this stretch of roadway has an excellent existing pavement condition and will require only minor pavement improvements combined with a slurry seal. It was also noted that this roadway received less traffic than the rest of the arterial roadways included in this project, which has helped mow, preserve the integrity of the pavement. 4 It was noted that this roadway does not contain any centerline medians, but does have a large number of s` OR roadside parking stalls; and dedicated right turn lane raised islands and multiple stop signs. The roadway traverses past Diamond Bar High School and Heritage Park, both of which draw high amounts of student traffic. Due to the proximity to schools, it is critical that the project is completed prior to the start ofthe school year in order to mitigate the impact on traffic. • ZONE 5. -GOLDEN SPRINGS DRIVE pp r - dn'vlli�;-J?,•'tL !�6 �tit�t�r`j7la� ra�.,luT r t .. �M�..17tdt ra �Ry4 ci' - 2 i This portion of the Zone 5 Roadway Slurry Programw it a t LSC$, > ., 44 traverses on Golden Springs Drive, from Grand: Avenue to Diamond Bar Boulevard. As can. be seen from visual inspection and through reference of the _ ' { 3 r.,•,` ' a.a provided PCI report, this stretch of roadway is in good relative condition and will require only minor pavement repairs and a slurry seal. Section 3: Project Design Page i 13 E I City of Diamond Bar Residential Area 7 and Arterial Zone 5 Maintenance Project (Design) If was noted that this roadway does have high traffic volumes including truck and bus traffic. The image to the right shows an example of alligator cracking, occurring at the edge of the roadway directly before a bus stop. Such items will require milling and replacement of AC in order to properly accommodate the slurry seal, This roadway does not have any raised medians, but does have a. striped median as well as a bike lane for the majority of its length. Traffic control will be a, concern on this roadway and will require the contractor to submit traffic control plans to ensure that vehicular traffic is handled appropriately. DIAMOND 'BAR .BOULEVARD ' This portion of the Slurry Program traverses on Diamond Bar Boulevard, from Sunset Crossing to Temple Avenue. If was noted that this portion of roadway received high truck and vehicular traffic.. due to its proximity to the freeway entrance. It is therefore anticipated that large portions of AC repair will be required to adequately prepare this site fora slurry seal. As can be seen from the PCI report, this portion of roadway has the lowest score and is coming up on.a PCI level that justifies further rehabilitation if funding & scheduling allowed. The picture '�J 1�0 + +k right ekq typical 1rlocations-ifinnq of longitudinal cracking seen throughout the Ii ' mits of this roadway which will require removal and replacement. If was noted that Diamond Bar Boulevard has a raised median for the majority of its length. Similar to `the previous roadway portions, this stretch`of roadway will require careful traffic control plans to ensure that all work rk is conducted appropriately throughout construction. As can .be seen from the preliminary analysis and. pictures;; if is, anticipated that the Arterial Roadway Slurry. portions will not require - more than the anticinated scope and we do not foresee any major problem areas. One final critical item for all arterial roadways on this project will be the preparation and implementation of traffic control plans. Due to the high traffic volumes and proximity to the freeway, traffic control plans should be required from The contractor and carefully reviewed OR by the Construction Administration Team. Section 3: Project Design Page 114, ®®soa City of Diamond Bar Residential Area 7 and Arterial Zone 5 Maintenance Project (Design) A preliminary review of the residential roadways proposed for rehabilitation shows that they are currently in "moderate" to `.`good" condition with a number of outlying "poor" roadways. The total average PCI for the slated residential roadways is 67 which correlates to a middle of the road "fair" rating. For a majority of the roadways, the current rehabilitation methods of slurry and cape seal will suffice, but we anticipate the need to conduct AC grind and overlay on a number of roads and cul-de-sacs in order to adequately facilitate the rehabilitation of this area. In an effort to best divide the roadways into logical sections, Onward Engineering has noted that the roadway characteristics in the . Western Zone 7 Neighborhood, constrained by Grand Avenue and Diamond Bar Boulevard, were significantly worse than the average pavement condition in the Eastern Neighborhood, which is encompasses the roadways and cul-de-sacs coming off of Longview Drive and Pantera Drive. The following describes each neighborhood and their identifying characteristics. an#ici WESTERN NEIGHBORHOOD: , r As was previously noted, this neighborhood exhibited multiple roadways with extremely # d'It'oIt ated poor pavemen con Ins...

As can be seen in the two images to the right, the mid block north bound onramp to the 57 will be directly affected during the slurry seal operations and will require a minimum of a half day shutdown, which in turn will require a Caltrans permit in order to properly construct this project. Secondly, as can be seen in the lower image to the right, although the slurry operations will not affect the freeway on or off ramp traffic at this location, traffic control devices may be required to be placed within Caltrans I AR right of way which will, again, require the City to obtain an encroachment permit from Caltrans. it is not anticipated that the physical scope of the work (eg. slurry, FCC & AC Work) will fall within Caltrans Right of Way, but due to the fact that the freeway on ramp traffic will be affected, it will be anticipated that, at a minimum, Caltrans coordination and obtaining an encroachment permit will be required for the construction of the project. Onward Engineering also anticipates the necessity for a freeway onramp detour to be prepared in order to fulfill the requirements Or The permit. An option has been presented in the scope of work to either require the contractor to . prepare all detours, or for our staff to preemptively prepare all Calfrans related detours in order to aid in the accelerated obtainment of the necessary permit. Once the design project is initiated, it will be critical that our staff immediately beg n coordination with Caltrans in order to ensure that the permit is obtained in a timely manner. Onward Engineering has assisted local agencies with the Caltrans encroachment permit such as this one on multiple projects and understands fully the necessary scope of work. 'Once the permit is obtained, all stipulations and verbiage received from Caltrans will be incorporated into the bid specifications with requirements for the Contractor to obtain a rider permit once the contract has been awarded. Also, in order to ensure that this item does not delay the project, as is described in, our scheduling section in the following pages, we suggest that the City bid this project early with clearly stated construction. start and completion dates in order to allow the contractor 010 ample time to conduct all required coordination and to, obtain all necessary permits prior to 10 the issuance of a notice to proceed.

Our past experience working on similar projects has allowed us to set a highly successful utility coordination protocol that greatly assists in the success of public works projects. We conduct a three -pronged utility notification procedure: 1. First, we focus on confirming the contacts for all existing utility facilities. It is understood that the City has a reliable list of existing utility contacts which can be relied upon to conduct all necessary utility notifications. To augment this list, Onward Engineering will conduct an on-line design investigation through Dig -Alert which allows our staff to research and confirm the most recent contacts for all present affected utilities. Each company will be individually contacted & informed of the upcoming project. 2. Secondly, our staff will send out three notices to utility companies throughout the course of the design project. The first notice will be sent immediately after the design kickoff meeting and will delineate the project scope and request the utility company to provide our office with any existing pertinent record data along with any prior rights information. The second notice will be sent out in the final design stage and will inform the utility company of the pending advertisement and award of contract, advising them to 1 20 conduct any final utility work prior to the beginning of the project. The third and final utility notice will be sent after the project has been awarded and 00 will inform the utility companies of the contractor's name and the notice to proceed 09 date and will direct all utility companies to ensure that any conflicting items are relocated or adjusted. 3.

The level of detail and accuracy that our staff employs to gather information will directly correlate with the quality of the final product and estimates for this.project. In an effort to link our findings with the City's PCI report, Onward Engineering has set the following field analysis protocol in place: A 1) Preliminary Pavement Condition Analysis: In order to prepare our field review team and M to confirm and correlate the anticipated pavement rehabilitation areas, our staff will print out a basemap of the neighborhoods and drive each street to document the visual pavement conditions. This will allow our staff to confirm the current PCI while also noting areas of extra degradation prior to the detailed field walk.

Field Walk Notes: This, project contains both arterial and residential streets within the City .of Diamond Bar. Due to the widespread nature of this project, both in space as well as roadway conditions, careful attention and detail must be taken by the field inspector to ensure a successful project. As can be seen in the image to the right, this project traverses freeway romps, requiring careful traffic control planning. This project also passes directly in front of Diamond Bar High School, as can be seen in the image to the left. Due to close proximity to the school and multiple parks, it is critical that this project is completed prior to the start of the 2011 school year, in order to mitigate complaints & traffic congestions problems. Our staff will do everything possible to ensure that this goal is accomplished. the required will also be a )erience of our onfident in our mplementation will mark out the removal and As our experience has shown on previous contracts, our field inspection & administration team can ensure that all necessary valve cans & manholes are adjusted to grade within the slurry and chip seal areas when the height difference requires it.

As can be seen in ® the two images to the right, the mid block north bound onramp to the 57 will be directly affected during the slurry seal operations and will require a minimum of a half day shutdown, which in turn will require a : Caltrans permit in order to properly construct this project. Secondly, as can be seen in the lower image to the right, though the slurry. operations will not affect the freeway on or off ramp traffic at this location, traffic control devices IV may be required to be placed within Caltrans right of way which will, again, require the City to obtain an encroachment permit from Caltrans. It is not anticipated that the physical scope of thel work (eg. slurry, PCC & AC Work) will fall within Caltrans Right of Way, but due to the fact that then ;' s 11 ,�. freeway on ramp traffic will be affected, it will be anticipated that the contractor will be required to L obtain a. Caltrans rider permit for the construction. ; of this project. We also anticipate the necessity for a freeway onramp detour to be prepared in. �" t order to fulfill the requirements of this permit. ; , 3 & Once the project is initiated, it will be critical that the selected design consultant immediately begin coordination with Caltrans in order to ensure that the initial permit is obtained in a timely manner. Onward Engineering has assisted local agencies with encroachment permits such as this one on multiple projects and understands fully the necessary scope of work. In order to avoid contract delays during ,construction, the encroachment permit, as well as all stipulations and verbiage rece.ived,from Caltrans during 1111 design will need to have been incorporated into the bid specifications with requirements for the Contractor to obtain a rider permit. As is described in our scheduling section in the following pages, we strongly suggest.that the 11 City bid this project early with clearly stated construction start and completion dates in order to allow the contractor ample time to conduct all required coordination and to obtain all necessary permits prior to the issuance of .a notice to proceed. Onward Engineering, upon selection of a contractor and issuance of the construction contract will begin coordination with the contractor to ensure that he is actively pursuing the necessary permit in order to avoid project delays and allow a timely completion of the project.

TO: Honorable Mayor and members of the City Council VIA: James DeStefano, City Manager TITLE: General Plan Amendment No. 2007-03, Zone Change No. 2007-04, Specific Plan No. 2007-01 ("Site D Specific Plan"), Tentative Tract Map No. 70687, and Environmental Impact Report 2007-02 (SCH No. 2008021014). PROJECT APPLICANT: Walnut Valley Unified School District .and City of Diamond Bar - LEAD AGENCY: City of Diamond Bar, Community Development Department PROJECT LOCATION: Site D is comprised of approximately 30.36 acres located at the southeast corner of Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Bar Boulevard (Los Angeles County Assessor's Parcel Numbers 8714-002-900; 8714-002-901, 8714-002-902, 8714-002-903 and 8714-015-001). SUMMARY: On November 16, 2010, at the request of the Walnut Valley Unified School District (V\[VUSD), the City Council continued the public hearing for the Site D Specific Plan to the December 7, 2010 meeting. The continuance was requested to allow time for the Board of Trustees to forward a recommendation to the City Council. At a special meeting on December 1, 2010, the Board of Trustees unanimously recommended changing the Site D land use framework to 100 percent residential. The recommendation also included the following: ® Incorporate minimal peripheral open space, green belt and park areas with some form of entry monumentation at the corner of Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Bar Boulevard to mark the entrance into the City of Diamond Bar; and ON GPA No. 2007-03, ZC No. 2007-04, SP No. 2007-01, TTM No. 70687, EIR No. 2007-02 Page 1 Reduce the residential density to less than 20 units per acre to better blend in with the existing residences in the vicinity to address residents concerns, while still meeting the District's needs. The full text of the Board of Trustee's recommendation is included as Attachment 1. The School Board's recommendation does not include specific development criteria for Site D, such as, but not limited to: 1. Maximum density and number of dwelling units; 2. What type(s) of residences should be developed (e.g., detached single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, etc.); and 3.Size and location of park space, and what types of amenities (walking trails, passive, active, etc.) should be included. If the Council accepts the Board of Trustees' recommendations, the next steps will include further study of these and other criteria. As discussed in the November 16, 2010 City Council staff report (included as Attachment 2), a market feasibility study was conducted, which indicated that Site D is a viable location for a neighborhood retail center in the long term (5 to 7+ years). Staff would like the Council to consider whether the potential benefits of retaining the proposed 10 -acre commercial site in the Specific Plan should be studied further. There are three options for the Council to consider and provide direction to staff. The three options and the associated additional next steps of each option are described below: 1. If the Council chooses to retain the commercial component and maintain 50 percent commercial/50 percent residential land use, staff will prepare the necessary changes to the consultant contract(s) to complete the Specific Plan and EIR for Council consideration; or 2. If a majority of the Council is interested in continuing to explore the viability of the commercial component, the City could continue the public outreach effort before determining the final land use for the site. The City could conduct a series of public workshops to discuss the concerns regarding the commercial component and any possible mitigation measures to address those concerns. . The workshops could also solicit community input on the type and density of the residential component, as well as the type and location of any public amenities; .or 3. If the Council chooses to change the land use framework to 100 percent residential, staff will prepare the following documents for Council consideration: GPA No. 2007-03, ZC No. 2007-04, SP No. 2007-01, TTM No. 70687, EIR No. 2007-02 Page 2 ® Revised Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to eliminate commercial from the land use palette; and ® Changes to the consultant contract(s) to revise the Specific Plan and EIR. NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING: The project was continued to this date at the November 16, 2010 meeting. Although not legally required to renotice, on November 23, 2010, staff mailed a notice to all property owners within 1,000 feet of this property, including all speakers who testified at previous meetings. The June 15 and July 20, 2010 City Council staff report, attachments to the report, draft Specific Plan and Environmental Impact Report were also posted on the City's website, and hardcopies are available for review at City Hall and the Diamond Bar Branch of the Los Angeles County Library. RECOMMENDATION FOR THE DECEMBER 7,2010 MEETING: 1. Take public testimony; 2. Discuss the desirability of retaining a commercial component in the Site D Specific Plan in and of the current and long-term economic outlook, and provide staff with direction on next steps; and 3. Continue the matter to a date uncertain. Prepared by: Reviewed by: —0 Grace S.

The District's primary objective in selling Site D as stated in the MOU was and continues to be that the disposition of the District's approximate 28.7 acres will yield the maximum return tothe District for the benefit of its students and its educational mission. The District I has been advised that an all residential development will generate the highest revenue to the District. The City's stated objective from the MOU is to provide a "desirable level of sales tax revenues to the City." For the past 3+ years after entering into the MOU, the District has cooperated with the City in an attempt to gain a responsible entitlement for Site D. Once we began the public meetings and heard the concerns of the community and the reaction from the Council, it was determined that a Public Outreach program was appropriate and was initiated with input from the City, to help alleviate the community's apprehension of the proposed project. In response to the divergent written and verbal comments received throughout the entitlement process, the District engaged RJM Design Group, Incorporated to assist the District in conducting a community outreach program to better understand the concerns and desires of the community regarding the potential development of Site D. At the November 9, 2010 Special Board Meeting/Study Session, Mr. Robert Mueting of RJM Design Group, Incorporated provided a summary of the input received from the October 16, 2010 community workshop. City of Diamond Bar— Site D December 2, 2010 Page 2 The comments received from the outreach workshop generally revolved around the same issues we have heard at past public meetings. Based upon this workshop summary, it was clear to the Board that the community did not need or want commercial development on Site D, but was supportive of a single family residential development if Site D was to . be developed. The community also supported. designating appropriate open space, green belt and park areas within the development plan for Site D. Therefore, based upon the above, the Board of Trustees for the Walnut Valley Unified School District recommends (1) that Site D be developed 100% residential with minimal peripheral open space, green belt and park areas with a monument to mark the entrance into Diamond Bar, and (2) . that the residential density be reduced to less than 20 units per acre. This decrease in density will better blend with the existing residences in the vicinity of Site D and will better meet the current market conditions for the building community. The all residential land use will provide the District with much needed financial resources to help meet the District's capital facility and technology needs. We are hopeful that the entitlement process will not delay the District's ability to alleviate budget shortfalls by selling the property in a timely manner. The District believes it has listened to the community's input regarding the development of Site D as requested by the City, and now submits the above recommendations to the City so that they may be implemented in an approved development plan by the City Council, as the decision making body. The District will continue to cooperateand collaborate with the City to enable the City to reach a decision which is in the best interest of the community.

PROJECT APPLICANT: Walnut Valley Unified School District and City of Diamond Bar LEAD AGENCY: City of Diamond Bar, Community Development Department PROJECT LOCATION: Site D is comprised of approximately 30.36 acres located at the southeast corner of Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Bar Boulevard (Los Angeles County Assessor's Parcel Numbers 8714-002-900, 87141-002-901, 8714-002-902, 8714-002-903 and 8714-015-001). SUMMARY: The City Council continued the Site D Specific Plan from the July 20, 2010 Council Meeting to the October 19, 2010 Council Meeting at the request of the Walnut Valley Unified School District to allow for additional time to obtain input and feedback from the community. On October 19, 2010, the City Council continued the public hearing to the November 16, 2010 meeting at the request of the School District to allow for additional time to conclude the community outreach efforts. ANALYSIS: The following tasks were completed since the July 20, 2010 City Council meeting: GPA No. 2007-03, ZC No. 2007-04, SP No. 2007-01, Page 1 TTM No. 70687, EIR No. 2007-02 1. Community Workshop: A half-day community workshop was held on Saturday, October 16, 2010 from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Approximately 79 people were in attendance. The, purpose of the workshop was to solicit public input, identify underlying concerns and site issues, investigate site constraints and opportunities, and build consensus. The workshop included the following* series of interactive activities that provided design and programming input from the, community: > Site Awareness Tour: A 90 -minute walking tour of the site was conducted to educate the participants on the existing features, constraints and opportunities of the site. Participants were provided with a workbook to record their observations of the physical environment at 12 stations situated along the walking path., > Group Activities: After the site tour, participants were divided into seven working groups. Two topics/questions were presented regarding the site, land use, opportunities, program and priorities. Participants were asked to individually respond on forms and then discuss within their group. Each group listed the top five issues and concerns from the two topics asked and reported their summary to all groups. The top five issues and concerns from these topics are listed below: To is j 1 What do you believe are the most important issues related to the development of Site D?

What suggestions can you think of to im ❖ Low Density Housing Park Do Over Access/Ttaffic Better Communication/Dissei-nination Planning/Design Charrette: Each group was then asked to develop a conceptual plan and design what they envision for the site on a topographic map, and presented their plan. Most groups had some consistent design elements for the site. The workshop facilitator prepared a summary chart which, identified the top five suggested design elements for the site, listed below: GPA No. 2007-03, ZC No. 2007-04, SP No. 2007-01, Page. 2 TTM No. 70687, EIR,No: ,2007-02 I . Low Density Homes; 2. Neighborhood/Community Park; 3. Trail; 4. Focal Point such as Windmill or Monument; and 5. Entry at Crooked Creek Drive The workshop summary report is attached to this report as Attachment 1. A summary of the community input from the workshop was presented at the Walnut Valley Unified School District Board Special Meeting on November 9, 2010. The School Board will be making a recommendation regarding the land use of the site to the City Council at the School Board Meeting on November 17, 2010. The SchoolBoard's recommended changes (if any) to the Site D Specific Plan is tentatively scheduled for the December 7, 2010 City Council meeting. 2. Market Feasibility Analysis: In response to questions raised regarding the feasibility of commercial development on Site D, staff _ contracted I with Keyser Marston Associates. (KMA) to update a previous market opportunities analysis prepared in April 2008, which stated at the time that Site D was appropriate for a shopping center. The updated report is provided in Attachment 2. The attached updated 2010 report specifically evaluated the potential for Site D to attract commercial development in light of current economic conditions and the 10 - acre limit set forth in the current draft of the Site D Specific Plan. The updated report concludes that Site D indeed remains viable for retail commercial development, but it could take another five to seven -plus years before the financial market would be able to facilitate such development. - The 2010 analysis finds that the near- to mid-term market opportunities for this site are limited due to the following: Credit crisis which has limited the funds available for new development; High vacancy. rates; and Relatively low rents in the City However, the City is losing retail sales to nearby jurisdictions and there is demand for food stores and dining establishments. KMA concluded that the viability of a 65 15OK square -foot neighborhood to community -sized commercial center which includes retail and/or office will be much greater in five to seven -plus years. The, report stated that tenancies could include food stores, office supply and` clothing chain stores, and restaurant pads. (A follow-up conversation with KMA to clarify that a 65 to 100K square -foot shopping center is more likely given the acreage constraints reduced the palette.of potential commercial uses to a grocery store and other service and restaurant uses.) GPA No. 2007-03; ZC No. 2007-04; SP No. 2007-01, Page 3 TTM No. 70687; EIR No. 2007-02 ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION: As stated, the School Board is scheduled to consider recommending changes to the Site D Specific Plan land use framework at its November 17, 2010 meeting, which will then be formally presented to the City Council on December 7, 2010. To aid the Council in addressing any recommendations brought forth, staff suggests that the proposed commercial component of the Specific Plan be explored further in light of both the community input received thus far, and the most recent market feasibility considerations. The participants at the October 16, 2010 workshop provided comments both in favor of and opposed to commercial development on Site D, but the time and program constraints of the workshop did not allow the opportunity to delve into the details of what the residents would like or dislike about commercial uses at this site. Given that the updated market feasibility study indicates that Site D is a viable location for a neighborhood retail center in the long term (5 to 7+ years), staff would like direction from the City Council as to whether the potential benefits of retaining the proposed 10 -acre commercial site in the Specific Plan should be studied further. If the Council believes that the pros and cons of commercial development on Site D merits further study, staff believes that a second community workshop, hosted by the City, should be conducted to focus on this issue. If land use compatibility issues can be articulated in greater detail, then solutions through design, development and performance standard's could be explored to address those issues: Such a Workshop need. not focus entirely on commercial development. The workshop could also be used explore in greater detail community preferences for the residential component (size, cluster, density, look and feel), and seek more details about the public a . menities that should be included (walking trails, park location and amenities). NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING: The project was continued to this date at the October 19, 2010 meeting., Although not legally required. to renotice, on November 5, 2010, staff mailed a notice to all property owners within 1,000 feet of this property, including all speakers who testified at previous meetings.

The Concept Plan Report is a summary narrative of the site functions composed Specifically to meet the needs of community involvement in developing and processing a S-Pecific Plan for, Site `D. Its purpose is to establish a Concept Plan that depicts the potential development of the site through a planning process that encourages community representatives and other stakeholders to participate effectively in the decisions on the potential land use, relationships, function, and circulation. The Concept Plan Report investigates site constraints and opportunities, and - promotes understanding and support for the development program. 879-01 WVUSD — Site'D'--L Workshop Summary VICINITY MAP SITE ANALYSIS TOPOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS 879-01 WVIJSD — Site `D' - Workshop Summary 3 COMMUNITY OUTREACH WORKSHOP SITE `D' October 16, 2010 INTRODUCTION This report summarizes the results of the first steps in the process that was conducted as a part of the public outreach effort to encourage community members to share ideas regarding the future of Site `D' in the City of Diamond Bar. The following lists the various steps in the process. PROCESS The process began with research analysis and fact fording. The project team, consisting of the Walnut �x ' Valley Unified School District, City of Diamond Bar Representatives, TRG Land and RJM Design Group, met first to review the approach and methodology.- Data ethodology.Data collectionn began to establish a comprehensive - database through a review and analysis of available pertinent information provided by the client. �t Site Analysis exhibits were created that identified the existing site and adjoining uses. The critical region of investigation focused upon the immediate site and those sites physically adjacent to the project area., WORKSHOP INTRODUCTION As part of the planning process, a workshop was held on Saturday, October 16th, from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm at the Castle Rock Elementary School. Seventy -Nine (79) residents and community members attended the workshop. Nancy Lyons, WVUSD Board President, welcomed the participants and provided an overview for the project `then introduced" Robert Mueting of RJM Design Group. .,Bob reviewed the process .for the morning's activities. and presented background information including the project history, current; Specific -Plan, site analysis, opportunities and constraints and then proceeded to facilitate the workshop activities. 879-01 WVTJSD — Site `D' - Workshop Summary 4 WORKSHOP GOALS The goals of the workshop are to: 1. Provide an overview of Site `D' history, existing conditions and Specific Plan. 2. Tour the site and adjacent areas to become familiar with the Site. 3. Provide a forum for discussion of potential issues and improvements. 4. Provide an opportunity to share ideas. The site tour was conducted at the beginning of the workshop on October 16, 2010. Each participant was given a "Taking Part" Workbook which contained a, series of comments and questions to answer as they walked the tour route. The format of the workshop follows a method called TAKING PART which is based on the theory that we. all are. inherently creative and that the real task for group leaders / teachers is to help us release our creativity. In TAKING PART we use many devices to release creativity — among these are actual experiences of issues, becoming aware together so as to develop a common language, sharing experiences so as to increase communication. Each person's feelings and attitudes have equal value. There are no experts who have '.'the answer'.'. As the workshop progresses, more and more energy is released and more and more interaction of creative ideas occur until eventually some forms of creative consensus about the project emerge. The workshop involved a series of exercises. Fust basic background information was provided and then all participated in the site awareness tour which allowed all to experience the site in the same way. The planning workshop followed, during which together all participants explored, discussed and developed actual concepts for Site `D' DISCUSSION WORKSHOP After the site tour, participants were divided into seven (7) different working groups for the discussion process. Each member of the group sat at a table of no more than eleven (11) participants with materials that included a flip chart, note cards, and. markers to record their discussions. Volunteers were requested from: each group to act as recorder/presenter. During the course of the workshop, WE were presented for individual consideration and group discussion.' gmg 06,10,14 a sot yx'� q ,, rip sL�r iH{ �y k �.nF�.aS' t- �t -�ia' "`��. -! s --^4d, r { .Mi'- S t �k �e r;e�� •-'-,�-•. rd e�'i u^SY,. 1.�5 r� i s f��i z r1�4 r.Sticr�YiS" xt` 09-01 WVUSD — Site `U — Workshop Summary 5 Below are the topics discussed: O 6Vliat do you believe are the most important issues related to the development of Site `DT ® Wliat suggestions can you think of to iin rove the Site `D' Specific Plan? Initially, participants were asked to individually respond on forms that were distributed before the presentation of each topic. They were encouraged to list as many responses that came to mind.. A group discussion then began with individual members of each group sharing their responses with the entire group. Time was allotted for the groups to gain consensus on their top five answers on the particular topic. Following each topic discussion, the group's presenter reported their findings to all of the workshop participants. Upon completion of the group presentations of the top five priorities for each topic, all individual topic response forms were collected. WORKSHOP SUMMARY After the presentations were given, the consultant team identified the top responses of all groups. They are listed below: TOPIC 1 What do you believe are the most important issues related to the development of Site `D'? •'• Traffic Park Space ❖ Residential Density ❖ Fiscal •'• Property Value TOPIC 2 What suggestions can you think of to improve the Site `D' Specific Plan? •3 Low Density Housing ❖ Park ❖ Do Over ❖ Access Traffic Better Communication / Dissemination GROUP CONCEPT PLANS Each group was asked to take the consensus issues and improvements and utilize their creative energy, to develop a concept plan for the site. Based upon participant input, (7) alternatives were prepared by the groups during the workshop. Diagrammatic Plan alternatives were drawn based upon the design concepts developed by each group participating at the workshop indicating proposed site land uses, configuration, and accessibility. 879-01 WVUSD — Site `D' — Workshop Summary 6 CONCLUSION Upon presentation of the top five priorities for each topic and each group's plan, all individual topic response forms were collected.

GERALDM:TRIMBLE, . PAUL C. h1ARIA Similar to 2008, the current uncertainty in the regional and national economy will impact market conditions in the near-term. Throughout the region, many development projects are on hold and/or are proceeding at a much slower pace. The credit crisis is a significant factor in this slowdown, as it has limited the funds available for new development. Consequently, while market demand may exist for new projects, financial considerations severely limit their ability to be built in the near-term.However, it is necessary to understand market demand to plan effectively for the future, when credit is once again more available. SITE DESCRIPTION The Site is located on the southeast corner of Brea Canyon Road and Diamond Bar Boulevard. Per the previous analysis, the sloping property is 28:4 acres of,undeveloped land; however, given the topography the entire site is not developable: A study prepared by the Walnut Valley Unified School District (School, District) and City of Diamond Bar (City)` indicates approximately 20.8 usable acres. 500 SOUTH GRAND AVENUE, SLATE 1480> LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA90071 > PHONE: 2136228095 > rAX:21362Z5204 1010015.DB:KEE:gbd W W W.KEYSERMA.RSCON.COM 11630.003.001 To: Grace Lee, City of Diamond Bar October 14, 2010 Subject: Diamond Bar Boulevard and Brea Canyon Road Page 2 Site Market Analysis SOCIO-ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS Identifying the socio-economic character of the market area residents is necessary for the evaluation of potential market opportunities.

October 14, 2010 Page 4 1. As shown in Attachment 1 —Table 3, the 2008 taxable retail store sales in the City are significantly lower than the Region, County and State.2 The sales data shown here comes from the California State Board of Equalization (SBE), which tracks the total taxable retail sales by jurisdiction. Within the City, the per capita taxable sales are extremely low in every retail store category. However, the regional market sales per capita are higher than the County in every category. This indicates the retail needs of the City's residents are likely being met by nearby jurisdictions. 2. As shown in Attachment 1 - Table 4, the taxable sales per permit in the City are low when compared to the Region and County. In fact, the sales per establishment within the City are lower than the County in every category except General Merchandise Stores. As shown in this table, the City has relatively few establishments, as the residents per permit are higher in the City than every jurisdiction except Chino Hills. It should be noted that while Chino Hills has relatively few establishments, its establishments generate significantly higher sales than those found in Diamond Bar. 3. As shown in Attachment 1 - Table 5, retail sales in the City have decreased 16% from 2000 to 2008. However, if auto dealerships are not included, then the actual change during this period is an increase of 3%. The significant difference is likely due to the closing of the Diamond Honda autodealership.3 4. Shown in Attachment 1 — Tables 6A and 6B is a survey of the shopping centers and major retailers in the market area. The centers and retailers shown in these tables are only a sample of the total retail activity in the jurisdiction noted, they do not reflect the entirety of the retail/commercial development. Comparatively, the data in Tables 3 and 4 includes all of the retail store activity in the listed jurisdiction. However, the breadth and depth of this sample indicates the intense competition in the market area.. 2 The sales categories shown here reflect typical retail center tenancies and do not include Service Station and Auto Dealer sales. 3 Due to disclosure issues the sales for Auto Dealers and Suppliers were included in the City's "Other Retail Stores" category for the years 2002-2008. 1010015.DB:KEE:gbd 11630.003.001.:..

Taxable sales in the City are extremely low. 2. Retail sales in the City are below County and State averages in every retail category. 3. There are relatively few retail establishments in the City, as there are significantly more residents per permit in the City compared to the other jurisdictions except Chino Hills. However, Chino Hills has larger retailers. 4. Taxable sales in the City have decreased 16% since 2000. 5. There is significant competition in the market area. 6. The surplus/leakage analysis indicates the City is leaking sales in all establishment types both currently and through the mid-term. 7. The Region indicates some demand as well; however, the sales productivity of Rowland Heights and Hacienda Heights is not captured. Further, there is a significant surplus of general merchandise sales in the Region and much of the demand is for food stores, which have a relatively small; local serving market area. 8.

To: Grace Lee, City ofDiamond Bar , October 14`ZO1O Subject: Diamond Bar Boulevard and Brea Canyon Road '' Page Site Market Analysis The socio-economic characteristics of the market area residents are strong, as income and education levels are quite high. However, the population within the three- mile market area is relatively low due to the lack of development to the south of the Site and lower density residential in the market area. Within the City, the retail sales are extremely low and the City is leaking sales to nearby jurisdictions. While the region shows some leakage, a significant surplus of sales in general merchandise stores and retail development in unincorporated areas likely account for a great share of this potential. Further, much ofthe demand isrelated tofood ato . es, which have srna||. local market area. Overall, when the region ieevaluated, there may basome support for building rnotaho| stores and dining establishments. Areview ofthe existing real estate conditions indicates the retail rents are relatively low and office rents are relatively healthy. Discussions with brokers indicate the retail market is currently soft, with relatively high vacancy rates. Given the market conditions inthe City, thanear-to market opportunitiesfor this Site are limited.

BUDGET IMPLICATION: Funding for the CDBG Program is received from the Federal Government. Approval of the 2011- 2012 CDBG budget will be incorporated into the Fiscal Year 2011-2012 City Budget. The CDBG Program does not impact the City's General Fund budget. By way of a Cooperative Agreement, the City of Diamond Bar is part of the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. The CDBG Program was established through the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. The primary goals of the CDBG program are to provide for the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low and moderate income. Eligible CDBG projects are those that meet one of the following national objectives for the program: • Benefiting low and moderate income persons; • Addressing slums or blight; or • Meeting a particular urgent community development need. The projects must also meet one of the eligible activity categories which include acquisition of real property. for an eligible use; acquisition, construction, and rehabilitation of public facilities; demolition and clearance of deteriorated buildings; community mmunity service for low and moderate income households; removal of barriers that restrict the mobility for elderly or disabled persons; or special economic development activities. Funds may be used for a variety of'community development activities such as public services, administration and public works projects. The funds may only be used within low and moderate - income census tracts (of which the City has none) and/or to benefit low and moderate -income persons and/or presumed eligible persons (elderly or disabled). The Los Angeles County Community Development Commission (CDC) has determined that the City of Diamond Bar's preliminary CDBG allocation for Fiscal Year 2011-2012 for the implementation of eligible projects is $383,691. According to the Federal regulations, 15% of the funds may be allocated for Public Services and 10% of the funds may be used for Administration. CDC anticipates notification of the final allocation by early 2011. In the event that the actual CDBG funding levels vary from the estimate, the City may adjust the proposed projects and I budgets accordingly. The City's approved projects and budget must be submitted to the Los Angeles County CDC by January 31, 2011. The City of Diamond Bar's projects and budget will ultimately become part of the Los Angeles County's CDBG program application to the U.S. Department. of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). DISCUSSION: Prior to approval of the programs and budget, a public hearing is required to receive and consider citizen input on the proposed CDBG Program. The public hearing has been advertised in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune and the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin. Additionally, the City sent a Request for Proposals to all interested organizations regarding the availability of CDBG funding. Based on the proposals submitted by non-profit agencies and City Departments, past history of applicants, and the availability of funds, funding recommendations have been developed. Prior to a project being funded, eligibility is determined and the sub -recipients must meet the Federal regulations/requirements. The City provides support to the projects that receive funding with technical assistance and monitoring to ensure compliance. ' The City is responsible for overseeing the operations of all the sub -recipient supported activities including compliance with all applicable Federal requirements and for monitoring the achievement of performance goals. .As part of the application process, the City implemented and how those programs. are established by the City. must describe the programs that are currently being meeting the goals and objectives that have been CURRENT CDBG PROJECTS AND ALLOCATIONS FOR FY 2010 - 2011 ($473,668) YMCA Child Care Program ($21,662) - Provides pre-schbol child care and after-school child care for children from low and, low/moderate-income families— CDBG funds are used to provide child care financial assistance for twenty (20) children.

Yes Provide a detailed description of the proposed project by describing precisely what is to be accomplished with the requested funds. The Diamond Bar/Walnut YMCA provides families with a safe place and quality care for children of working and single parents. The requested funds will be used to subsidize day camp fees for moderate and low-income families in Diamond Bar. Each family is required to show proof of income and residence and pay a small part of the Day Camp fee, with the larger balance paid through CDBG funds. Having families participate in a small way in payment of their children's Day Camp fees has proven to help families feel more vested in the YMCA and in their children's care while they are working, resulting in a greater sense of pride and responsibility. Describe the specific purpose of the project; identify the problems the project is intended to solve, and the age group of those to be served. Over 200 families throughout the local community enroll their children in YMCA Day Camp Programs, which provide programs for boys and girls ages 4 and entering Kindergarten through age 13. Day Camp offers great alternatives to children being left at home unsupervised -or getting involved in unwholesome activities while parents are working. YMCA Day Camp Programs incorporate the "CORE" values of Honesty, Caring, Respect and Responsibility", offer participants a wide variety of activities, field trips, and esteem building experiences in a safe environment with lots of other potentials friends — all supervised by caring YMCA — trained staff. We encourage participants to grow as a family unit and individuals to participate in values education, physical fitness and community service they may not otherwise receive. The requested funds allow, families from low or moderate income to participate in Day Camp. Identify and describe the geographic boundaries of the target area. (Attach a map if appropriate). Citywide in the City of Diamond Bar, GOALS AND OBJECTIVE OF PROJECT Provide a detailed description of the proposed project by describing precisely what is to be accomplished with the requested funds. YMCA Child Care- rsch hi Enrichment (Kindergarten 7`" grade) The YMCA offers an education enhancement Afte program which is designed to serve children from kindergarten through fifth grade. It provides youth with structured afterschool opportunities to do homework, engage in group discussions, participate in . sports, and attend cultural events. Although so many after school child care programs elsewhere have had difficulty holding the attention of boys and girls beyond the fourth grade, the YMCA keeps the older children involved by offering activities which target their interest and are age-appropriate. Monday through Friday the children are picked up after school by the YMCA staff and, transported to one of four nearby locations, where they are given a light snack.From 3:00 to 4:00 P.M., the children do their homework under the guidance of the YMCA staff. Group and one -on- one tutoring is provided for children having trouble with assignments. Serious difficulties with school work are reported to the parent(s). The YMCA staff works closely with the child's teacher and parents when providing any, additional help. At 4:00 the children participate in 2145 minutes enrichment activities: As with any YMCA' program, the YMCA School Age Curriculum is centered around the YMCA mission and program objectives. The YMCA mission is to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. Y programs, such as'school age child care; are the tools YMCAs use to help participants experience the YMCA mission. In school-age programs, mission activities look like this: Spirit refers to self-esteem and willingness to help others .and the activities that .develop 'these qualities. It also includes a sense of fun and a, climate of positive energy. YMCA activities includes p resolution skills, and opportunities for success building strop inter -personal relationslu skills, conflict. regardless of ability. Mind refers to learning and to activities that promote learning. YMCA activities include and encourage solving problems, using school -gathered knowledge, and having high expectations each time an activity is undertaken. Body refers to health and wellness and the activities that promote these qualities. YMCA activities include and encourage physical fitness and active games. The components of the school-age 'curriculum are character development, health and fitness, homework support, literacy, technology, social competence, and conflict resolution. Character development - In today's challenging and complex world, children need reinforcement of positive values even when they are away from home. YMCA school-age child care programs take character development seriously by incorporating the values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility into play, learning, and social activities. Through consistent teaching, modeling, reinforcement, and practice, staff help children demonstrate and accept positive values. Health, Wellness and Fitness - Building strong bodies is a part of the YMCA's history. Strong bodies live longer. Strong bodies are healthy and have organs that work better. YMCA school-age staff work closely with fitness staff to help design a program where children fully participate in health, wellness, and physical activities. This discipline is a powerful character building tool that builds an ethic of hard work and goal setting. Young bodies develop better when good health habits and physical activity are a regular part of daily life. Homework Support- In YMCA homework centers, the program staff provides a time, place and support to help children complete homework. A strong program also provides resource -rich environments, introduces activities that build on what children learn in the school day, and if needed, may even provide tutoring and other support services. Literacy - a core component in the YMCA afterschool learning is just one way the YMCAs can help support a child's success in school without extending the school days with academic activities. Literacy includes reading, writing, speaking, gathering information, using information, thinking critically, understanding others, and expressing oneself. Social Competence and Conflict Resolution - Afterschool programs are a place where children feel safe, understood, respected and secure. When these basic requirements for healthy living and socializing are missing in a person's life, learning rarely takes place. Social competence and conflict resolution curriculum activities, when used regularly, helps make Y MCA programs emotionally and, socially comfortable places to be. In school-age programs, staff help educate children in understanding natural and logical consequences and encourage them to acceptresponsibility for their behaviors. They guide activities, givingchildren strategies for dealing with conflict when it comes their way, and help them develop socially acceptable ways of interacting with one another. The requested CDBG funding would help pay. Child Care fees to enable children from low -moderate income families to enjoy the benefits of a safe, quality, affordable and fun place to be during their parent's working hours. Activities are planned and supervised, by caring YMCA trained staff. Program hours are from 6:30 AM — 6:30 PM Monday —Friday. CDBG funding will go directly to program fees. Each family receiving assistance is required to complete a financial assistance application with all necessary documentation (including proof of residence in the City of Diamond Bar) and is required to pay partial fees, contributing to a sense of pride and responsibility in providing care for their children. PRESCHOOL The YMCA offers a wonderful place where your child can learn and grow in, a safe and nurturing environment. The programs are operated on an experiential learning philosophy - children learn by doing. The .theme -based curriculum includes skill building kindergarten readiness through a literacy -based for kinderga circle time, arts, dramatic -play, math concepts, building blocks, games, and physical play. The children learn positive social skills through a program and staff that teaches and demonstrates'the values of honesty, j. responsibility, caring and respect. Our preschool programs encourage family involvement through special events, newsletters, parent advisory committees and volunteers in the classrooms. The goal of the YMCA. Preschool is to give children a balanced experience that develops social emotional and intellectual. skills Ages Z-5 Dal Camp What makes YMCA Day Camping different? 4 Words: honesty, respect, caring and responsibility. Every camper will be involved every day in character development activities appropriate to his/her age. At a time when our society shows great concern for the modern family and the development of values and character in our children, YMCA day camping stands, as it has for more than 100 years, as a place to address these issues. Your child can learn to play sports or do arts and crafts anywhere, but at YMCA Day Camp, in addition to teaching skills, we workwith children to clarify values which will last a lifetime. KINDER CAMP Want something for your children to do this summer? Register now in Kinder Camp where they will enjoy exciting, fun adventure. Each week there will be special topics to explore using cooking, music, science, crafts and your child's own imagination. Kinder Camp is ideal for developing new friendships, discovering and strengthening physical capabilities, exploring nature and the environment, and learning cooperation and teamwork FUN CAMP This is the traditionally terrific "Y" day camp that so many kids in our community know and love. A full day program for children completing the 1" through 4`b grade. We place emphasis on safety and fun as our trained staff leads your child through a balance of activities. Our activities will include arts and crafts, music, aerobics, racquetball, swimming, games, and many other fun activities. TEEN CAMP These more advanced campers will enhance leadership and social skills as they plan and organize their own activities in a supervised day camp environment. Explorers offer boys and girls who have completed the 5h through 7t' grades fun through trips, Describe the specific purpose of the project; identify the problems the project is intended to solve, and the age group of those to be served. It has been widely documented that families and society have changed radically. The high divorce rate(over 50%), and the rise in the number of single household incomes, have resulted in a higher percentage of mothers entering the work force than any previous time in the nation's history. For a majority of working mothers, their absence from home is an economic necessity. For the poor, all problems are exacerbated and finding afterschool programs is no exception. Unable toafford quality care at all, parents living at the poverty level frequently leave their children in settings that range from inadequate to harmful. Raising a child is extremely difficult for a parent with a job outside of the home. It. is more difficult yet for a parent with more than one child or a limited income. For parents, the child care issue does not go away when a child reaches school age. If anything, it intensifies. Sixty-nine percent of children have working parents. Options available today, for working. families with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, far exceed the choices. available to school age children. The workday schedules and school hours almost never coincide. Where do children go when the bell rings at 2:15 and their parents will not be home for another three hours? Research suggests that the premature. responsibilities of taking care of themselves may be too much for some children. For some children, taking care of themselves may mean: I. Vulnerability to peer pressure, bad choices due to a lack of appropriate adult supervision. II: Responsibility of caring for younger siblings. IIL Experimentation with drugs, alcohol and sex. Nationally, the highest rates of juvenile crime occur 'between the hours of 4:00 and 7:00 P.M. These facts demonstrate that the hours after school,are critical ones for children. In addition, a recent report. shows that juveniles are twice as likely to be victims of violent crime_ in the hours between 3:00 - 4:00 P.M. on school days as at any other time. (Juvenile Offenders. & 99 National Report.) The workplace is influenced by the problem of latchkey children. After school lets out at 3:00 P.M., parents wait for the phone call that tells them that their child is home safe. This is referred to as the three o'clock syndrome, productivity of workers drops after school lets out. The dramatic changes in family life, coupled with the stresses of day-to-day survival in a fast paced society, makes the YMCA's School Age Child Care Program - emphasizing, body, mind and spirit - more important than ever. By offering nonschool activities, the YMCA hopes to stop the growth of gang activity and substance abuse in high risk youth by involving them and their families in wholesome programs now and, hopefully, for the rest of their lives. Some of the best substance abuse prevention programs never mention drug and alcohol at all. They focus on developing youth leaders who are self- assured. The YMCA will provide programs for children ages five through thirteen. The goal of the YMCA Preschool is to give children a balanced experience that develops social, emotional, physical and intellectual skills. The objectives of the YMCA preschool are as follows: Learning to follow simple instruction Learning to communicate with children & teachers Large and small muscle development Hand -eye coordination Using various art materials Music for an understanding of rhythm and song Vocabulary building with stories, pictures and records Outside play Alphabet study for visual recognition and phonics Number recognition and application Color and shape recognition Identify and describe the geographic boundaries of the target area.

CITY COUNCIL Agenda # 7.3 Meeting Date: December 7, 2010 AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council VIA: James DeStefano, City Ma r, TITLE: Adopt Urgency Ordinance No. X 1((010)U and First Reading of Ordinance No. X (2010) amending Title 15 & 16 of the Diamond Bar Municipal Code and Adopt Resolution No. 2010 -XX determining that modifications to the California Building, Residential, Green, Plumbing, and Electrical Codes, and California Fire Code with Los Angeles County Amendments are reasonably necessary. Introduce first reading by title only and waive full reading of Ordinance No. X (2010), set second reading for January 4, 2010, adopt Urgency Ordinance No. X (2010)U, and adopt Resolution No. 2010 -XX. FISCAL IMPACT: None. BACKGROUND: The City Council previously adopted the 2007 California Building Codes in November 2007. Typically, every three years the State of California (State) reviews various Model Building Codes and adopts the most current California Building Codes printed by the International Code Council (ICC) as mandated by State Health and Safety Code Section 17958. During this code cycle, the State has added two new Building Codes for adoption: The California Residential Code and California Green Building Standards Code. Local cities are required to adopt these codes by ordinance or they will automatically be adopted by operation of law. In July of this year, the State finally adopted the 2009 ICC codes as California Building Codes with State amendments, which requires cities 180 days to follow suit. Therefore, cities have until I January 1, 2011 to adopt the 2010 State Codes. Further, the State allows cities to amend the California Building Codes to meet their unique climatic, geographical, and topographical conditions. PROPOSED CALIFORNIA BUILDING CODES WITH DIAMOND BAR'S LOCA_ I AMENDMENTS: General: The codes adopted by the State are the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition, Volumes 1 and 2, the "California Residential Code", 2010 Edition, the "California Green Building Code", the "California Mechanical Code", 2010 Edition, the "California Plumbing Code", 2010 Edition, the "California Electrical Code", 2010 Edition, and the "California Fire Code", 2010 Edition with Los Angeles County Amendments to the Fire Code. The California Residential and Green Building Codes were not previously adopted by the State in the prior code process. The California Residential Code was supposed to be adopted by the State during the last code cycle but was excluded due to lack of time and incorporated into the California Building Code. The'State has nowseparated the California Residential Code from the California Building Code consistent with the model ICC Codes. The California Green Building Code was previously adopted by the State but was only voluntary to prepare for this code cycle for full adoption. The California Green Building Code requires the Building Division to implement waste reduction mandates for the first time. The primary points of interest for these codes are requirements for fire sprinklers in all new dwellings, and waste reduction/green building design in new structures. Green Building Standards: As previously indicated, new to this year's cycle of adoption of building related codes is the California Green Building Standards. While these standards do not relate to the safety of buildings, the development of the code was intended to (1) cause a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from buildings; (2) promote environmentally responsible, cost-effective, healthier places to live and work; (3) reduce energy and water consumption; and (4) respond to the directives by the Governor. The 2010 California Green Buildings Standards Code is a code with mandatory requirements for new residential and non-residential buildings (including buildings for retail, offices, schools and hospitals) throughout California beginning on January 1, 2011. The code is Part 11 of the California Building Standards Code in Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations and is also known as the CALGreen Code. In short, the code was established to reduce construction waste, make buildings more efficient in the use of materials and energy, and reduce environmental impact during and after construction. Local Amendments: The proposed ordinance amends Titles 15 & 16 of the Diamond Bar Municipal Code incorporating the new California Building Codes and California .Fire Code with Los. Angeles County Amendments to the Fire Code. Attached is the marked up version of, the proposed 2 ordinance showing the changes with strikeout and underline notations. A clean version of the proposed ordinance is attached for Council action. Also, staff has provided a resolution making express findings and determinations that modifications to the California Building Code, California Residential Code, California Green Building Code, California Plumbing Code, California Electrical Code, and California Fire Code are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions as indicated in the separate Resolution 2010 -XX. The most significant technical changes are summarized below: , Administration: Section 15.00 of the Diamond Bar Municipal Code, Chapter 1 Division 11 of the Administration Code - Reorganizes the Administration Code referencing to the new location in the various codes with the California Building Code being the basis point. The California Building Code Appendix Chapter 1 was moved to Chapter -I Division 11. Administration — Storage Shed Permits: CBC Section 105.1.1. — This section was revised to provide better clarity to application and consideration for pitched/sloped roofs. This was previously amended in last cycle to further define storage sheds, tool sheds, and similar accessory buildings to prevent the use of these spaces as habitable space. Pool Barriers/Fencing: CBC 105.1.2 & 3109.4.4 and CRC R330 - References pool fencing/barrier requirements that were omitted in the State adoption in error. Without the referencing, pool fencing is technically not mandated. e Soils Reports: CBC 117 - Adding the Building Official to have the discretion to require soils investigation reports. Previously, this section only authorized the City Engineer to make this determination. Due to unpredictable soil conditions in the City, this would provide additional oversight to allow the Building Division to also require reports. Expansive Soils: CBC 1805.10 — Updated to be more consistent with Los Angeles County's "Building Code Manual" policy on expansive soils. Throughout the City of Diamond Bar expansive soil (adobe) exists, which mandates a soils report for any foundation work. By adopting this amendment, the costly soils report can be omitted from the typical room addition plans. Administrative: CA Plumbing, Mechanical, & Electrical Amendments — Amended ,to be consistent with the Building Administrative Code listed in California Building Code Chapter 1 and previous amendments made to the Building Administrative Code of the City of Diamond Bar. Administrative: . Create Division 12 of Chapter 15.00 for the new California Residential Code adoption. 3 Structural Earthquake Connections: CRC R602.10.6.2(1) — Provided to ensure direct connection of building components for seismic/earthquake forces. The, base code considers the entire country and was left in the State code in error. Multi -Story Engineering: CRC Table R602.10.1.2(2) — Created to be consistent with the Los Angeles County and the local regional code organizations. This section requires multi -story structures to be engineered. The poor performance of these more complex structures has been proven by various studies the need for the knowledge of an engineer. The purview of an engineer will protect occupants from structural failure in this seismically active region. Multi -Story Engineering: CRC R301.1.3.2 — Amended to. require an engineer in multiple story structures consistent with Los Angeles County and local regional code organizations due to complexity of these types of structures and poor performance of these structures without the proper design. Third -Party Quality Assurance Inspections: CRC R329 — . Incorporate special inspection (third party quality assurance inspection for materials) into, the California Residential Code that was erroneously omitted. Various products require special inspection from a certified individual capable of ensuring quality of construction as previously required in prior codes. ® Sound Attenuation Control: CRC R331 — Sound transmission control was erroneously omitted from the California Residential Code and has always been a part of the Building Codes for transmission of sound in structures containing more than one dwelling. * Administrative: Create Division 13 of Chapter 15.00 for the new California Green Building Code adoption without adopting the appendicies which incorporate tiered requirements. 0 Multi -Story Application of CAL Green: CAL Green 1.0 1. & i — Adds erroneously missed mid -rise structures such as 3-4 story apartment structures from being required to comply with the California Green Building Code requirements. All other new structures are required to meet this code's criteria. ® Rehabilitation Code Update Update the Rehabilitation Code referencing to more current code sections. This section is part of the code enforcement criteria for minimum housing standards, thus enhancing the quality of life in the City. It gives the City authority to address the maintenance of residential.. housing as it relates to required exiting, minimum light and ventilation, sanitation facilities, electrical wiring, and weather protection, and abatement of substandard housing. Chapter 98 was also included for abandoned buildings which allows for enforcement of abandoned structures. 4 0 Grading: Appendix J - Transfers the power and duties usually exercised by the Building Official on all items dealing with excavation and grading to the City Engineer. This amendment is proposed due to the complexity of the submitted grading plans, and the diverse topography in the City of Diamond Bar. Dealing with this type of challenge requires the expertise of a civil engineer that is accustomed in addressing these projects, and this amendment would address this need. Fire Code Amendments: LA County Fire Code LA County Fire provides fire services to the City. They have identified local conditions that occur throughout the County that are included at the end of their amendments. The adoption of the California Building & Fire Code 2010 edition will aid the Building Official, City Engineer, and Fire Department in administrative, organizational and enforcement rules and regulations for the technical codes which regulate the site preparation and construction, alteration, moving, demolition, repair, use and occupancy of buildings, structures and building service equipment within the City. COMMENTS FROM OTHER AGENCIES AND ORGANIZATIONS: The Fire Department and City Attorney have received and reviewed the proposed California Building & Fire Code amendments, and find them to be acceptable in form and content. NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING: Pursuant to the Government Code, a pubic hearing notice was published in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin and the San Gabriel Valley Tribune 14 days prior to the adoption of the ordinance.

Section, 13. This ordinance shall be effective upon adoption and shall become operative on this Isday of January, 2011. PASSED, ADOPTED AND APPROVED this day of 2011. Mayor 1, TOMMYE CRIBBINS, City Clerk of the City of Diamond- Bar, do hereby certify.that the foregoing Ordinance was introduced at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar held on the day of 2010; and was finally passed at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar held on the day of 2011, by the following vote: AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: ABSTAIN: COUNCIL MEMBERS: ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: ATTEST: Attachment Draft Resolution RESOLUTION NO. 2010- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR MAKING EXPRESS FINDINGS AND DETERMINATIONS THAT MODIFICATIONS TO THE CALIFORNIA BUILDING CODE, CALIFORNIA RESIDENTIAL CODE, CALIFORNIA GREEN BUILDING CODE, CALIFORNIA PLUMBING CODE, CALIFORNIA ELECTRICAL CODE, AND CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE, AS ADOPTED BY ORDINANCE NO. X (2010) ARE REASONABLY NECESSARY BECAUSE OF LOCAL CLIMATIC, GEOLOGICAL OR TOPOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS. A. RECITALS (i) California Health and Safety Code Section 17922 requires all cities to adopt, as the City Building Standards Code, the State Building Standards Code adopted pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 4 of Part 2.5 of Division 13 of the California Health and Safety Code. (ii) Section 17958.5 of the California Health and Safety Code provides, in pertinent part, as follows: "...a city or county may make such changes or modifications in the requirements contained in the provisions published in the State Building Standards Code and the other regulations adopted pursuant to Section 17922 as it determines, pursuant to the provisions of Section 17958.7, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions." (iii) Prior to making the modification permitted under Section 17958.5 of the California Health and Safety Code, this Council is required to make an express finding that such modifications or changes are reasonably necessary. (iv) . This Council desires to amend the provisions of sections 1505.1.1., 1505.8, Table No. 1505.1, 1805.10, 3109.4.4, and Appendix J of the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition. (v) This Council desires to amend the provisions of Sections 89.101.7.3, 89.108.8, 89.108.4.2, 110.14, 334.10(A&B); 334.12(A), 590.3(B), and Table 300-5 of the "California Electrical Code", 2010 Edition. (vi) This Council desires to amend the provisions of Sections R602.10.6.2(1), Table R602.10.1.2(2), R301.1.3.2, R329, R330, and R331 of the "California Residential Code", 2010 Edition. (vii) This Council desires to amend the provisions of subsection 722.6 of the "California Plumbing Code", 2010 Edition. (viii) All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. B. RESOLUTION NOW, THEREFORE, be it found, determined and resolved as follows: 1. In all respects asset forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution. 2. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in Ordinance XX (2010) amending Sections 1805.10 and Appendix J of the "California Building Code" 2010 Edition and Sections R602.10.6.2(1), Table 8602.10.1.2(2), R301.1.3.2, and R329 of the "California Residential Code", 2010 Edition and adding subsection 722.6 of the "California Plumbing Code", 2010 Edition are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The hillsides in Diamond Bar are composed of Puente Formation, and similar weak geological materials, while neighboring flatland areas are composed of more stable fill and alluvial materials. These materials may be naturally unstable or weak in terms of physical support. These highly expansive soil conditions are vulnerable to earth movement. b. The City of Diamond Bar experiences diverse temperatures, which promotes expansion and contraction of the soil. This condition is very damaging to expansive type soil. C. Because of the above-described climatic and geological conditions, the City of Diamond Bar requires special engineering to support habitable structures within the unstable soil areas and requires additional measures to be taken in connection with excavation and grading on private properties. This will decrease possible damage due to natural earth expansion and seismic activity. d. The City of Diamond Bar is located in a seismically active area and is in close proximity to earthquake fault zones (Whittier fault, just south of Tonner Canyon; Chino fault passes within a mile of the city's eastern boundary), and it is reasonably foreseeable that. an earthquake would render the City of Diamond Bar particularly .vulnerable to devastation. Further, the City of Diamond Bar is bisected by major freeways, located primarily in a north -south direction. Substantial numbers of flood control facilities additionally exist, as well as freeway overpasses and major railroad right-of-ways. e. Because of the above-described geological conditions within the city, and the substantial amount of freeway, railroad, and flood control facilities throughout the 'community, the City of Diamond Bar, in the event of an earthquake, may be unable to dispatch an adequate number of fire personnel and apparatus to suppress fires and conduct rescue operations. Moreover, the conditions within Diamond Bar likewise occur in surroundinq communities, hereby rendering mutual aid assistance problematic, at best. 2 f. The City is within a highly seismically active region. The City is adjacent to various active faults including the Chino, Sierra Madre, Cucamonga, Whittier, San Jacinto and Raymond Faults. It is necessary to modify the State Code as amended by Los Angeles County and add additional foundation provisions. 9- The City has much hillside topography, unstable geology, watershed areas, expansive soils, underground streams, and hillside fire hazard areas within the City. h. Furthermore, climatic conditions within the community render it extremely likely that, in the event of seasonal high winds and earthquake occurring, the County Fire Department would be unable to suppress numerous fires occurring throughout the community. 3. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Section 3109.4.4 of the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition, and Section 330 of the "California Residential Code" are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. I This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. Because of the risk of delays in fire rescue response time due to traffic congestion and due to the high number of swimming pools within close proximity to small children because of local climate which makes pool ownership desirable, pool barriers are necessary. b. The City has several hillside areas that may delay emergency safety rescue for drowning at swimming pools for small children. 4. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Sections 89.101.7.3, 89.108.8, 89.108.4.2, .110. 14, 334.1 O(A&B), 334.12(A), and 590.3(B) of the "California Electrical Code", 2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City contains buildings constructed ructed when aluminum wiring was allowed which has been noted by the Consumer Product Safety Commission to cause fires. These fires become more hazardous as more load to systems are exacerbated through time and require special knowledge to ensure proper installation procedures. b. The City is in a semi -arid region which allows certain protective restrictions for wiring to consider wiring in these types of conditions. c. Furthermore climatic conditions within the community render it extremely likely. that. in the event of seasonal high winds and earthquake occurring, the County Fire Department would be unable to suppress numerous fires occurring throughout the community. Therefore protection of electrical wiring is essential in the above described events and this protection is magnified in high occupancy buildings. 3 d. As found in Section 1 above, the City of Diamond Bar is located in a seismically active area and is in close proximity to earthquake fault zones (Whittier fault, just. south of Tonner Canyon; Chino fault passes within a mile of the city's eastern boundary), and it is reasonably foreseeable that an earthquake would render the City of Diamond Bar particularly vulnerable to devastation. Further, the City of Diamond Bar is bisected by major freeways, located primarily in a north -south. direction. Substantial numbers of flood control facilities additionally exist, as well as freeway overpasses and major railroad right-of-ways. e. The City is subject to seasonable high temperatures and dry atmospheric conditions which often occur during times of high -velocity winds which cause potentially hazardous conditions of high expansion -contraction. Due to the climatic, geographic and topographical conditions hereinabove described, the City is susceptible to weather change requiring limitation on wiring types. 4. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Section 101,.3.1 of the "California Green Building Code", 2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City of Diamond Bar is subject to drought conditions. Its water provider, the Metropolitan Water District, may restrict local water supplies in such cases and impose surcharges on water supplied in excess of these levels. As water supplies are restricted further and the price of water rises, the City of Diamond Bar will find it difficult to maintain hillside erosion control and the general quality of life in our community will suffer. 5. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Section 331 of the "California Residential Building Code",2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City of Diamond Bar is bisected by major freeways, located primarily in a north -south direction and various large arterials including Golden Springs Rd., ,.Diamond Bar Blvd., Pathfinder Rd., and Brea Canyon. Rd. Substantial numbers of flood control facilities additionally exist, as well as freeway overpasses and major railroad. right- of-ways. These major thoroughfares create substantial noise which impacts the general welfare of the community. 6. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in Ordinance No. XX (2010), amending Sections 1505.1.1 1505.8, and Table No. 1505.1 of the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. Located throughout the City of Diamond Bar, as well as in the surrounding cities, are numerous concentrations of structures which have roofs constructed of thinly cut pieces of wood, otherwise known as untreated shakes, as well as untreated 4 wood shingles. These untreated wood shakes and shingles are extremely combustible in nature. b. The City of Diamond Bar, as well as the surrounding cities, is located in an area climatically classified as "arid" and prone to winds of high velocity. Moreover, due to the and nature of the area, the weather during the windy periods tends to be very warm and dry. The dry weather conditions are very hazardous to the surrounding undeveloped hillsides and wild lands which neighbor highly populated areas. C. Because of the above-described climatic and meteorological conditions, the City of Diamond Bar and the surrounding cities have historically suffered from occasional structural and brush fires. These have often been difficult to control due to the high velocity, dry winds carrying sparks and cinders to surrounding structures with roofs constructed as described in paragraph 6.a. above. 7. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in Ordinance No. XX (2010), amending Section 321.0 of the "California Plumbing Code", 2007 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City of Diamond Bar is subject to drought conditions. Its water provider, the Metropolitan Water District, may restrict local water supplies in such cases and impose surcharges on water supplied in excess of these levels. As water supplies are restricted further and the price of water rises, the City of Diamond Bar will find it difficult to maintain hillside erosion control and the general quality of life in our community will suffer. b. Because of the above-described climatic condition affecting the City of Diamond Bar, the need for alternative methods of providing landscape irrigation, is enormous. The use of reclaimed water will help to meet this demand, now and in the future. 8. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth.in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending the "California Fire Code" (2010 Edition) by adding the Los Angeles County Amendments, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the attached local conditions outlined by the County of Los Angeles Amendments. I, TOMMYE CRIBBINS, City Clerk of the City of Diamond Bar, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was passed, adopted and approved at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar held on the 7th day of December 2010, by the following vote: AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: ABSTAIN: COUNCILMEMBERS: standards contained in this code and identified in the table below shall be applicable only in those cities served by the District which have ratified the aforesaid sections in accordance with California Health and Safety Code section 13869.

X (2010) ARE REASONABLY NECESSARY BECAUSE OF LOCAL CLIMATIC, GEOLOGICAL OR TOPOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS. A. RECITALS (i) California Health and Safety Code Section 17922 requires all cities to adopt, as the City Building Standards Code, the State Building Standards Code adopted pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 4 of Part 2.5 of Division 13 of the California Health and Safety Code. (ii) Section 17958.5 of the California Health and Safety Code provides, in pertinent part, as follows: "...a city or county may make such changes or modifications in the requirements contained in the provisions published in the State Building Standards Code and the other regulations adopted pursuant to Section 17922 as it determines, pursuant to the provisions of Section 17958.7, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions." (iii) Prior to making the modification permitted under Section 17958.5 of the California Health and Safety Code, this Council is required to make an express finding that such modifications or changes are reasonably necessary. (iv) . This Council desires to amend the provisions of sections 1505.1.1., 1505.8, Table No. 1505.1, 1805.10, 3109.4.4, and Appendix J of the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition. (v) This Council desires to amend the provisions of Sections 89.101.7.3, 89.108.8, 89.108.4.2, 110.14, 334.10(A&B); 334.12(A), 590.3(B), and Table 300-5 of the "California Electrical Code", 2010 Edition. (vi) This Council desires to amend the provisions of Sections R602.10.6.2(1), Table R602.10.1.2(2), R301.1.3.2, R329, R330, and R331 of the "California Residential Code", 2010 Edition. (vii) This Council desires to amend the provisions of subsection 722.6 of the "California Plumbing Code", 2010 Edition. (viii) All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. B. RESOLUTION NOW, THEREFORE, be it found, determined and resolved as follows: 1. In all respects asset forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution. 2. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in Ordinance XX (2010) amending Sections 1805.10 and Appendix J of the "California Building Code" 2010 Edition and Sections R602.10.6.2(1), Table 8602.10.1.2(2), R301.1.3.2, and R329 of the "California Residential Code", 2010 Edition and adding subsection 722.6 of the "California Plumbing Code", 2010 Edition are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The hillsides in Diamond Bar are composed of Puente Formation, and similar weak geological materials, while neighboring flatland areas are composed of more stable fill and alluvial materials. These materials may be naturally unstable or weak in terms of physical support. These highly expansive soil conditions are vulnerable to earth movement. b. The City of Diamond Bar experiences diverse temperatures, which promotes expansion and contraction of the soil. This condition is very damaging to expansive type soil. C. Because of the above-described climatic and geological conditions, the City of Diamond Bar requires special engineering to support habitable structures within the unstable soil areas and requires additional measures to be taken in connection with excavation and grading on private properties. This will decrease possible damage due to natural earth expansion and seismic activity. d. The City of Diamond Bar is located in a seismically active area and is in close proximity to earthquake fault zones (Whittier fault, just south of Tonner Canyon; Chino fault passes within a mile of the city's eastern boundary), and it is reasonably foreseeable that. an earthquake would render the City of Diamond Bar particularly .vulnerable to devastation. Further, the City of Diamond Bar is bisected by major freeways, located primarily in a north -south direction. Substantial numbers of flood control facilities additionally exist, as well as freeway overpasses and major railroad right-of-ways. e. Because of the above-described geological conditions within the city, and the substantial amount of freeway, railroad, and flood control facilities throughout the 'community, the City of Diamond Bar, in the event of an earthquake, may be unable to dispatch an adequate number of fire personnel and apparatus to suppress fires and conduct rescue operations. Moreover, the conditions within Diamond Bar likewise occur in surroundinq communities, hereby rendering mutual aid assistance problematic, at best. 2 f. The City is within a highly seismically active region. The City is adjacent to various active faults including the Chino, Sierra Madre, Cucamonga, Whittier, San Jacinto and Raymond Faults. It is necessary to modify the State Code as amended by Los Angeles County and add additional foundation provisions. 9- The City has much hillside topography, unstable geology, watershed areas, expansive soils, underground streams, and hillside fire hazard areas within the City. h. Furthermore, climatic conditions within the community render it extremely likely that, in the event of seasonal high winds and earthquake occurring, the County Fire Department would be unable to suppress numerous fires occurring throughout the community. 3. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Section 3109.4.4 of the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition, and Section 330 of the "California Residential Code" are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. I This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. Because of the risk of delays in fire rescue response time due to traffic congestion and due to the high number of swimming pools within close proximity to small children because of local climate which makes pool ownership desirable, pool barriers are necessary. b. The City has several hillside areas that may delay emergency safety rescue for drowning at swimming pools for small children. 4. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Sections 89.101.7.3, 89.108.8, 89.108.4.2, .110. 14, 334.1 O(A&B), 334.12(A), and 590.3(B) of the "California Electrical Code", 2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City contains buildings constructed ructed when aluminum wiring was allowed which has been noted by the Consumer Product Safety Commission to cause fires. These fires become more hazardous as more load to systems are exacerbated through time and require special knowledge to ensure proper installation procedures. b. The City is in a semi -arid region which allows certain protective restrictions for wiring to consider wiring in these types of conditions. c. Furthermore climatic conditions within the community render it extremely likely. that. in the event of seasonal high winds and earthquake occurring, the County Fire Department would be unable to suppress numerous fires occurring throughout the community. Therefore protection of electrical wiring is essential in the above described events and this protection is magnified in high occupancy buildings. 3 d. As found in Section 1 above, the City of Diamond Bar is located in a seismically active area and is in close proximity to earthquake fault zones (Whittier fault, just. south of Tonner Canyon; Chino fault passes within a mile of the city's eastern boundary), and it is reasonably foreseeable that an earthquake would render the City of Diamond Bar particularly vulnerable to devastation. Further, the City of Diamond Bar is bisected by major freeways, located primarily in a north -south. direction. Substantial numbers of flood control facilities additionally exist, as well as freeway overpasses and major railroad right-of-ways. e. The City is subject to seasonable high temperatures and dry atmospheric conditions which often occur during times of high -velocity winds which cause potentially hazardous conditions of high expansion -contraction. Due to the climatic, geographic and topographical conditions hereinabove described, the City is susceptible to weather change requiring limitation on wiring types. 4. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Section 101,.3.1 of the "California Green Building Code", 2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City of Diamond Bar is subject to drought conditions. Its water provider, the Metropolitan Water District, may restrict local water supplies in such cases and impose surcharges on water supplied in excess of these levels. As water supplies are restricted further and the price of water rises, the City of Diamond Bar will find it difficult to maintain hillside erosion control and the general quality of life in our community will suffer. 5. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending Section 331 of the "California Residential Building Code",2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City of Diamond Bar is bisected by major freeways, located primarily in a north -south direction and various large arterials including Golden Springs Rd., ,.Diamond Bar Blvd., Pathfinder Rd., and Brea Canyon. Rd. Substantial numbers of flood control facilities additionally exist, as well as freeway overpasses and major railroad. right- of-ways. These major thoroughfares create substantial noise which impacts the general welfare of the community. 6. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in Ordinance No. XX (2010), amending Sections 1505.1.1 1505.8, and Table No. 1505.1 of the "California Building Code", 2010 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. Located throughout the City of Diamond Bar, as well as in the surrounding cities, are numerous concentrations of structures which have roofs constructed of thinly cut pieces of wood, otherwise known as untreated shakes, as well as untreated 4 wood shingles. These untreated wood shakes and shingles are extremely combustible in nature. b. The City of Diamond Bar, as well as the surrounding cities, is located in an area climatically classified as "arid" and prone to winds of high velocity. Moreover, due to the and nature of the area, the weather during the windy periods tends to be very warm and dry. The dry weather conditions are very hazardous to the surrounding undeveloped hillsides and wild lands which neighbor highly populated areas. C. Because of the above-described climatic and meteorological conditions, the City of Diamond Bar and the surrounding cities have historically suffered from occasional structural and brush fires. These have often been difficult to control due to the high velocity, dry winds carrying sparks and cinders to surrounding structures with roofs constructed as described in paragraph 6.a. above. 7. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth in Ordinance No. XX (2010), amending Section 321.0 of the "California Plumbing Code", 2007 Edition, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the following more specific findings and determinations: a. The City of Diamond Bar is subject to drought conditions. Its water provider, the Metropolitan Water District, may restrict local water supplies in such cases and impose surcharges on water supplied in excess of these levels. As water supplies are restricted further and the price of water rises, the City of Diamond Bar will find it difficult to maintain hillside erosion control and the general quality of life in our community will suffer. b. Because of the above-described climatic condition affecting the City of Diamond Bar, the need for alternative methods of providing landscape irrigation, is enormous. The use of reclaimed water will help to meet this demand, now and in the future. 8. This Council does hereby expressly find and determine that the amendments set forth.in this Ordinance XX (2010) amending the "California Fire Code" (2010 Edition) by adding the Los Angeles County Amendments, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographic conditions. This express finding is supported and based upon the attached local conditions outlined by the County of Los Angeles Amendments. I, TOMMYE CRIBBINS, City Clerk of the City of Diamond Bar, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was passed, adopted and approved at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar held on the 7th day of December 2010, by the following vote: AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: ABSTAIN: COUNCILMEMBERS: standards contained in this code and identified in the table below shall be applicable only in those cities served by the District which have ratified the aforesaid sections in accordance with California Health and Safety Code section 13869.

The first is the California Residential Code, and will apply to single-family and two-family residences. The California Residential Code will replace the regulations applicable to these structures currently found in the California Building Standards Code. The second is the California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen), which replaces the 2007 California Building Standards Code, and is the nation's first mandatory green building code. According to the Governor's press release issued at the beginning of the year, "these comprehensive regulations will achieve major reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption and water use to create a greener California." An ordinance adopting local amendments to these new codes will be on the City Council's December 7, 2010 agenda. We prepared the attached PowerPoint presentation for the upcoming hearing, and are providing this advance copy as an overview of these new standards. If you have any questions regarding the new California Residential and CALGreen codes prior to the December 7th hearing, please feel free to contact Greg or Raymond. Enclosure Val P. MICHAEL FREEMAN FIRE CHIEF FORESTER & FIRE WARDEN October 19, 2010 Ray Tao 21201 La Puente Road Walnut, CA 91789 Dear Building Official Tao: COUN'T'Y OF LOS ANGELES FUW. DEPARTMENT 1320 NORTH EASTERN AVENUE LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 900633294 As you may be aware, beginning January 1, 2011, the California Residential Code (CRC) will require residential fire sprinklers to be installed in all new one and two-family residences and townhouses built in the State of California. The Fire Department will not be assuming the responsibility of plan review and inspection for this new residential sprinkler building standard. This includes those areas located within a Fire Hazard Severity Zone, which by ordinance, may currently require fire sprinklers. However, it is our intention to maintain the current practice of plan review and inspection of all other sprinkler installations as previously completed by the Fire Department. Fire Department staff is available to discuss further or schedule a meeting. We appreciate your support and the positive relationship we have developed. Please contact me with any questions or concerns at (323) 890-4132. Very truly yours, CD—az7 Assistant Fire Chief Roy L.

SECTION 166. Findings in Support of Adoption of More Restrictive Building Standards. The provisions of this ordinance contain various changes, modifications, and additions to the 2010 California Fire Code. Some of those changes are administrative in nature in that they do not constitute changes or modifications to requirements contained in the building . standards adopted by the State Fire Marshall and published in the California Building Standards Code. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code sections 17958.5, 17958.7, and 189416, the Board of Supervisors hereby expressly finds and determines that all of the changes and modifications to requirements contained in the building standards published in the California Building Standard . s Code, contained in this ordinance, which are not administrative in nature, are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions in the County of Los Angeles and in the Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County. This expressed finding is supported and based upon the following more specific determinations: CLIMATIC - The County of Los Angeles is located in an area subject to climatic conditions with long periods of low humidity and hot weather, combined with 158 HOA.734555.1 unpredictable seasonal high winds (Santa Ana wind conditions), resulting in increased exposure to fire risk. This combination of events creates an environment that is conducive to rapidly spreading fires. Control of such fires requires rapid response. With the time that is required to deal with potential obstacles from the wind, such as fallen trees, street lights, and utility poles, in addition to the time required to climb 75 feet vertically up flights of stairs, the ability to respond rapidly is negatively impacted. Additionally, there is a significant increase in the amount of wind at 60 feet above the ground. Use of aerial -type fire fighting apparatus above this height would place rescue personnel at increased risk of injury. High winds will also cause burning embers to become airborne resulting in the rapid spread of a fire to nearby structures. Immediate containment of a fire is the only method by which it can be controlled during high wind conditions. In high fire severity zones, a unique combination of low humidity, strong winds, and dry vegetation exists. GEOLOGICAL - The County of Los Angeles is located in the middle of the seismically active area identified as Seismic Zone 4. The viability of the public water system would be questionable at best after a major seismic event. Tall buildings would become vulnerable to uncontrolled fires due to a lack of available water and an inability to pump sufficient quantities of any available water to floors above the 55 -foot level. A severe seismic event has the potential to negatively impact any rescue or fire suppression activities because it is likely to create significant physical obstacles and logistical challenges. With the probability of strong aftershocks, there exists a need to provide increased protection for anyone on upper floors. HOA.734555.9 159 Geological conditions created by the numerous faults will result in increased fire danger to structures, delayed fire department response, and unique rescue challenges. Seismic events of sufficient magnitude will cause substantial damage to structures. These damages are likely to be accompanied by a substantial number of fires that may exceed the fire department suppression capabilities. Accordingly, built-in fire suppression systems provide the only adequate measure to mitigate the potential The County of Los Angeles is subject to occasional severe rainstorms. The impacts from these rainstorms are exacerbated if hillside areas have been burned by wildland fires because significant mud and debris flows can occur. Mud and debris flows can impair fire department access or delay response times if access roads are obstructed by mud or debris. TOPOGRAPHICAL - The topographical conditions of the County of Los Angeles includes many mountains, hills, and canyons which tend to accelerate the periodic high - velocity winds by means of a venturi effect. These canyon winds and the significant growth of vegetation of a combustible nature increase the fire danger. Additionally, long periods of dry, hot weather, combined with unpredictable seasonal winds (Santa Ana wind conditions) result in increased exposure to fire risk. The hillside areas have access roads that are narrow, steep, and contain many sharp curves, all of which makes timely response by large fire apparatus difficult. The specific sections of this code that constitute more restrictive building standards are identified in the table set forth below. The more restrictive building HOA.734555.1 160 ratifiedstandards contained in this code and identified in the table below shall be applicable the aforesaid sections only in those cities served by the District which have .9ccordance, with California Health and Safety Code section 13869. =SectlonCocal ondition Explanation and Findings Local amendment requiring brush clearance in order to maintain defensible space for fire operations that 304.1.2— Climatic and is necessary due to Los Angeles County's unique Vegetation Topographical climate and topography to reduce risk of fire and to minimize the spreading of fire to structures.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: On March 26, 1968, a Freeway Agreement was executed between the State and the County of Los Angeles. The proposed project was for the State to build an eastbound off - ramp and westbound on-ramp at Lemon Ave. Due to lack of financial resources at the time, the project was shelved and was never built. In June of 2004, Industry and Diamond Bar entered into a Letter of Agreement for the SR- 60/Lemon Avenue Interchange. It represented our mutual understanding to relieve traffic congestion at the existing Brea Canyon Road interchange and our collective desire to improve safety & traffic movement on the SR -60 and SR -57 freeways as well as our local arterials. The adopted Fiscal Year 2010-2011 City Council Goals and Objectives also identifies the Lemon Avenue On and Off Ramp Project. To date, the City of Diamond Bar has secured a total of $11.3 Million in funding, including $8.63 Million in SAFETEA-LU funds, $2.29 Million in Metro Prop C funds, and $400,000 in Highway Safety Improvement Program grant funds for the construction of a new interchange at Lemon Avenue. This significant amount, combined with the City of Industry's pledge of $4.9 Million towards the project, enabled the two cities to move forward with a project report on the environmental document, final design on the project, and construction of the Lemon Avenue interchange. Caltrans is the Lead Agency for the project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Based on the findings of the technical reports, engineering reports, the final Environmental Document was approved in November 2008. The project will consist of a three legged interchange, hence the term partial diamond interchange, consisting of a westbound on-ramp, eastbound on-ramp and eastbound off - ramp. A westbound off -ramp was considered, however a significant amount of right-of-way would need to be acquired from Diamond Bar residents and the Walnut Valley Unified School District. The cost to acquire the property needed for a westbound off -ramp made the total project cost far too expensive to pursue. Additionally, the amount of private property impacts was far greater than what the City was willing to consider for this project. Though a westbound off -ramp will not be constructed, the existing westbound off -ramp at Brea Canyon Road will remain. The westbound on-ramp will also remain in place after the construction of the new interchange at Lemon Avenue. The existing Brea Canyon Road eastbound on and off -ramps, also referred to as the existing "hook ramps", will be removed once the new interchange is completed due to their proximity to the new eastbound on- ramp at Lemon Ave. By approving this agreement, the City is authorizing a three-legged freeway interchange to be constructed at Lemon Avenue. The current project schedule indicates that the right-of- way phase of the project, which includes acquisition of private property, will begin December 2010 with a projected completion in late 2012. Construction is scheduled to begin shortly thereafter in 2012 with completion in mid -2014. Any obligations of the City with respect to the funding and construction of the freeway project will be dealt with in a separate Cooperative Agreement. Additionally, a separate Cooperative Agreement will also be required for right-of-way acquisitions associated with this project.

APPLI ATION FOR THE HIGHWAY SAFETY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (HSIP) FOR THE PATHFINDER ROAD PEDESTRIAN AND STREET SAFETY ENHANCEMENT PROJECT RECOMMENDATION: Approve the grant application and authorize the City Manager to execute contracts and related documents that may be necessary to process the project. FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact. BACKGROUND: In September of 2010, Caltrans Division of Local Assistance made a call for projects for Cycle 4 of the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). This HSIP call is for the 10/11 FFY with a local agency funding apportionment of $70 Million. The program provides funds on a competitive basis to aid cities and counties in constructing safety improvements to publicly owned roadways, bikeways, or pedestrian walkways. The HSIP is a federally funded program that is administered by Caltrans. The City has been successful in the past receiving grant funds in the amount of $125,000 for the Pathfinder Road Median Project (between the SR 57 and Fern Hollow Drive) and $400,000 for the Golden Springs Drive Safety Enhancement Project. The Pathfinder Project was completed in September of this year while the latter project will be constructed in conjunction with the Lemon Avenue Partial Interchange Project. In addition, the City also received funds for the Sunset Crossing Road Traffic Calming Project in the amount of $220,000 under the predecessor program to the HSIP. DISCUSSION: The project being proposed for this year's HSIP program is to continue the construction of landscaped medians along Pathfinder Road between Brea Canyon Road (west of the SR 57 Freeway) and Diamond Bar Boulevard. Based on research and analysis of accident and citation history along with engineering review utilizing the HSIP criteria, the proposed median project on Pathfinder Road is the best candidate project to submit at this time. The construction of landscaped medians will provide a physical barrier along the length of Pathfinder Road while also creating an improved condition for left turn and u -turn movements at the intersections. The recent Pathfinder Median improvement project has already proven effective by eliminating illegal left turn and u -turn movements while providing aesthetic benefit as well. The proposed median improvement will accomplish the same safety and aesthetic benefit on the remainder of Pathfinder Road east of Brea Canyon Road. The current engineer's estimate of $665,000 includes the cost of design, construction, and construction management. Since the HSIP program allows for requests of funds up to 90% of the estimated project cost, the City's application will include a request for 90% of the total project cost. The remaining 10% of funds will need to be provided by local fund sources. If funds are awarded, a separate request of the Council will be made to authorize a local fund source to cover the remaining 10%. It is anticipated that results of the application review process will be available in Early Spring 2011.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: None BACKGROUND: In 2002 the City of Diamond Bar, through the Public Financing Authority issued Variable Rate Lease Revenue Bonds for the purpose of building the Diamond Bar Center. One of the requirements of the bond is that the City pay a monthly lease payment to the Public Financing Authority. This payment represents the debt service on the bond and consists of the monthly interest charge and 1/12 of the principal payment due on the following July Vt. The prepaid principal payments remain in the bank accounts and are invested and safeguarded until they are -due each July Vt. These funds are transferred to the Bond Trustee Union Bank of California for disbursement. The Public Financing Authority bank accounts which reflect these activities are included in this Treasurer's Statement. Although the Public Financing Authority's funds have been incorporated into the City's monthly Treasurer's Statement, a separate Treasurer's Statement has been prepared for review and approval. This statement shows the cash balances for the various funds, with a breakdown of investment account balances and the effective yield earned from investments. lll�?►'1►�, Finance q)irector Attachments: Treasurer's Statement — November 1, 2009 through October 31, 2010 Diamond Bar Public Financing Authority Treasurer's Cash Statement 10/31/10 :BEGINNING :.: •.. ......... .•:..... : ` :. ..•...• ......•: ENDING P.TS:.: _'.: RISBURSEMENTS.:=...TRANSFER....: . _'BAS. @';10%31(10:•' PFA - Lease Prepay Fund 120,834.08 296,270.32 290,020.95 0.00 127,083.45 PFA - Lease Payment Fund 5,115.09 36,328.20 36,760.99 0.00 4,682.30 $125,949.17 $332,598.52 $326,781.94 $0.00 $131,765.75 CASH WITH FISCAL AGENT: US TREASURY Money Market Account $131,765.75 $131,765.75 The Authority maintains a US Treasury Sweep Account with the City's Fiscal Agent, Union Bank of California.
