Meeting Date: January 21, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE LOS ANGELES URBAN
COUNTY PERMANENT LOCAL HOUSING ALLOCATION ("PLHA")
PROGRAM.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-01 approving the City's participation in Year 5 of the Los
Angeles Urban County PLHA Program; and
B. Determine that the proposed action does not constitute a project and is therefore
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”).
FISCAL IMPACT:
The PLHA Program is a SB 2 funded program that provides an ongoing annual source
of funding through State Property Transfer Fees. The City has been allocated $125,849
in funding for Year 5 (January 1, 2027 through December 31, 2027) PLHA Program
based on the State’s allocation formula. No additional funding is required to participate
in the program. If the City does NOT request the funds and identify a purpose for them,
the funds will be returned to the State.
BACKGROUND
The PLHA Program was approved by the State legislature in 2017. It is designed to
provide an ongoing annual source of funding for the construction of affordable housing,
programs to assist persons who are experiencing or are at risk of homelessness, or
other housing-related assistance programs for low-to-moderate income households.
Like the City’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program allocations, the
PLHA funding is first allocated to the Los Angeles County Development Authority
(LACDA). The funding is then distributed to individual participating cities according to
an allocation formula. The City was allocated a combined total of $794,762 for PLHA
5.4
Packet Pg. 57
Program Years 1 through 4 (i.e., calendar years 2023 through 2026).
On June 20, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023 -25 approving the
City’s participation in the PLHA Program to expand the Home Improvement Program by
increasing the maximum loan amount from $20,000 to $30,000, and extending the
program to income-eligible condominium owners, and authorizing the City Manager to
enter into a reimbursable contract with LACDA.
On December 3, 2024, LACDA informed the City of its eligibility to receive $125,849 for
its Year 5 PLHA funding allocation (Attachment 2). To begin receiving these funds, the
City is required to adopt and submit a City Council resolution to LACDA by February 14,
2025, listing the program activities that will be funded.
Pursuant to the rules set forth by LACDA, Year 5 funds must be fully expended by June
30, 2028.
DISCUSSION
The SB 2 legislation relating to PLHA funds specifies what eligible activities these funds
can be used to finance. Activities can be broadly categorized as follows:
1. Activities related to the construction or preservation of affordable housing or
supportive housing;
2. Matching funds to regional housing trusts;
3. Homelessness services and prevention programs;
4. Accessibility modifications for lower-income, owner-occupied housing;
5. Acquisition and rehabilitation of foreclosed or vacant homes; and
6. Programs that expand homeownership opportunities including but not limited to
down-payment assistance programs.
Of the eligible activities listed above, it is recommended that the City allocate its Year 5
PLHA allocation to continue funding the Home Improvement Program and
Condominium Home Improvement Program. The proposed programming of these
funds is summarized below:
• Home Improvement Program (HIP) – $35,000
The HIP offers deferred loans to eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners of
single-family detached housing for necessary home improvements, as well as
repairs to mitigate building and safety code deficiencies and/or violations. The City’s
HIP policies currently provide interest-free, deferred loans of up to $30,000 to
eligible households. Loans become payable when the homes are sold or
refinanced.
5.4
Packet Pg. 58
The minimum and maximum loan amounts under this program are $5,000 and
$30,000, respectively. The City proposes to allocate a portion of its PLHA award to
fund at least one HIP loan. CDBG funds are available to accommodate additional
participation in the program.
• Condominium Home Improvement Program (CHIP) – $65,679
The CHIP offers deferred loans to eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners
of residential condominiums and townhomes. The program is administered
essentially the same manner as the HIP, but the loan amount is capped at $20,000
because costlier improvements, such as roof maintenance and exterior repairs, are
the responsibility of the respective condominium homeowners associations. The
proposed allocation of $65,679 would fund at least three CHIP loans. Unlike the
HIP, CDBG funds cannot be used for CHI P loans, so excess demand would have to
be accommodated in the subsequent program year. Alternatively, the City may
make adjustments to the PLHA funding allocations between the two programs, if
appropriate. For example, If the demand for CHIP loans is higher than anticipated,
the City could reallocate funds from the HIP allocation.
• Administration of the HIP and CHIP - $25,169
The use of PLHA funds to cover administrative costs is capped at 20%. Therefore,
$29,136 of the PLHA award is proposed to be set aside to pay consultant costs to
administer these programs.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
The proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”). As such, this matter is exempt under CEQA.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the Resolution as to form.

Dear Dan Fox:
AWARD LETTER NOTICE YEAR 5 (2023 ALLOCATION)
PERMANENT LOCAL HOUSING ALLOCATION PROGRAM
The Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) is pleased to announce that the City’s tentative
Year 5 Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funding allocation is $125,849. Overall, LACDA
experienced a decreased level of funding for Year 5 PLHA funds, which is why you will see less funding
available now compared to prior years.
Once the LACDA receives the Year 5 funding from the State of California Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD), the city of Diamond Bar will be required to enter a contract with the
LACDA that will set forth the conditions for funding and program/regulatory requirements that are
required to be met for the funding and implementation of the City’s PLHA funded activity. Please note
that in order to receive funding, the City must be in compliance, specifically having a State approved
Housing Element at the time of the award commitment from the State to LACDA.
If you wish to accept these funds for current or new eligible activities, the city of Diamond Bar must:
1. Submit a Letter of Intent which includes concise details of the proposed Activity and Sub-Activity
and describes how the City plans to expend the funds by June 30, 2028;
2. Complete a proposed Exhibit A form for the planned activity;
3. Provide a city council approved resolution; and
4. Provide proof of 30-day Public Notice.
Please submit all required documentation on or before February 14, 2025. If the Letter of Intent, including
supporting documentation is not received by the due date, the available allocation will be retained by the
County and reallocated to Countywide program(s).

FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: CONSULTANT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH DE NOVO PLANNING
GROUP TO PREPARE NECESSARY ENVIRONMENTAL
DOCUMENTS FOR A PROPOSED ELECTRONIC BILLBOARD
LOCATED AT 880 SOUTH LEMON AVENUE.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Open, Engaged & Responsive Government
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve, and authorize the City Manager to sign, the Consultant Services Agreement
with De Novo Planning Group to prepare the necessary environmental documents
pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act in the not -to-exceed amount of
$64,950.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None. All costs associated with the execution of the Consult ant Services Agreement
shall be borne by the project applicant. The applicant will be required to submit the total
contract amount to the City prior to the start of services. Consultant invoices will be paid
out of the developer deposit account. The proposed Consult ant Services Agreement
authorizes the Consultant to submit invoices to the City for a not-to-exceed amount of
$64,950.
SUMMARY:
The Walnut Valley Unified School District (WVUSD) proposes to install a digital billboard
along the freeway frontage of its district facilities on Lemon Avenue. The Development
Code (Title 22 of the Diamond Bar City Code) currently prohibits off-site signs, including
billboards, so a number of prerequisite actions, including an amendment to the
Development Code, would have to be accomplished before the City may consider the
district’s request.
Because the proposed project is subject to California Environmental Quality Act
5.5
Packet Pg. 65
(CEQA), the City is seeking services of an environmental consulting firm to prepare the
required CEQA documentation. This will include an assessment of potential
environmental impacts associated with the proposed electronic billboard installation and
the identification of mitigation measures to minimize those impacts to less -than-
significant levels. It is anticipated that an Initial Study (IS) will likely determine that a
Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) would be the appropriate environmental
document for the project.
Site Characteristics
The billboard is proposed to be located on the 6.1-acre property of the WVUSD
administrative offices and bus yard at 880 South Lemon Avenue. The site is bounded by
Walnut Elementary school and adjacent Lycoming Street to the north, South Lemon
Avenue to the west, Glenwick Avenue to the east and the California State Route 60 (SR
60) to the south.
The proposed billboard will be located near the southwest corner of the site, where the
bus yard is located, to provide optimal visibility along the freeway . The image below
highlights the subject property and proposed billboard location:
Site Aerial of Project Location –
WVUSD Administrative Offices
Proposed Project
The application includes the following entitlement requests:
• Development Code Amendment to amend the Development Code to allow
billboards as a permissible use, subject to specified criteria.
• Development Review to approve the design of the proposed electronic billboard
5.5
Packet Pg. 66
structure at the subject property.
• Conditional Use Permit to allow the operation of the proposed electronic billboard
at the subject property.
• Development Agreement between the City of Diamond Bar and WVUSD setting
forth the community benefits that may be derived with the development and
operation of an electronic billboard at the subject property.
CONSULTANT SELECTION PROCESS:
On August 19, 2024, the City published a detailed Request for Proposals (RFP) on
PlanetBids, inviting planning and environmental consulting firms to submit proposals to
prepare the CEQA document for the project. The City received proposals from eleven
firms. After reviewing the proposals and interviewing the top candidates, s taff
recommends that the City enter into a Consulting Services Agreement with De Novo
Planning Group (De Novo) based on the factors outlined below:
Quality of Proposal – De Novo prepared a proposal with a detailed scope of work
closely aligned with the project’s needs, including an in-depth review of potential
impacts to aesthetics, light and glare.
Cost – The proposed budgets of the eleven proposals ranged from $26,896 to
$124,909, with an average cost of $66,176. De Novo’s proposal, with a not-to-exceed
amount of $64,950 for preparing an MND, is at the midpoint of this range, and is slightly
lower than the average (see table below for cost comparison). De Novo’s cost-
competitiveness is largely attributed to its use of experienced in-house staff.
Firm Bid Amount
SummitWest Environmental, Inc. $26,896
CAJA Environmental Services, LLC $35,230
CSG Consultants, Inc. $49,925
CASC Engineering and Consulting, Inc $54,500
Chambers Group $63,120
De Novo Planning Group $64,950
Michael Baker International $66,270
UltraSystems Environmental $74,870
T&B Planning, Inc. $76,780
EPD Solutions, Inc. $90,484
FirstCarbon Solutions $124,909
Scope of Work – The proposed scope of work includes all work efforts related to the
analysis, preparation, consultation and related compliance with CEQA. This will include
the preparation of an initial study, the mitigated negative declaration with necessary
technical studies, on-call consulting on an as needed basis, and attendance at public
hearings.
5.5
Packet Pg. 67
Firm Credentials – De Novo’s team is comprised of experienced and highly qualified
analysts specializing in planning, environmental services, and sustainability. Their
expertise encompasses environmental documentation and compliance, with technical
proficiency in areas such as visual impact assessments, air quality analysis, noise
studies, and biological resource evaluations. Additionally, De Novo received outstanding
references, highlighting the firm’s responsiveness and excellent work products.
De Novo has assisted cities such as Lake Forest, Fountain Valley, Burbank and
Gardena with the preparation of environmental documentations for similarly complex
CEQA projects. In March 2022, De Novo completed an IS/MND for City of Baldwin Park
for the installation and operation of a 90 -foot-tall electronic billboard, adjacent to the
Interstate 10 freeway corridor.
Project Manager – De Novo’s business approach includes having a dedicated project
principal and project manager on every project to ensure continuity and a seamless
process during the absence of either person. Starla Barker, AICP, will be the assigned
project principal, responsible for review of all work products and overall quality control.
Ms. Barker has over 20 years of industry experience preparing and managing planning
and CEQA documents throughout Southern California. Christine Abraham, will be the
assigned project manager and is responsible for day -to-day management of the CEQA
process through to public hearings. Ms. Abraham is also a principal planner with De
Novo and has almost two decades of environmental consulting and planning
experience. Ms. Abraham is also a member of the State Bar of California.
Based on staff’s evaluation of the submitted proposals, it is recommended that the City
Council authorize the City Manager to execute the proposed contract with De Novo to
prepare the CEQA documents for a not-to-exceed total of $64,950.

4. SCOPE OF WORK
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Diamond Bar is seeking a qualified environmental planning consultant team to prepare
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance documentation for the proposed installation and
operation of an electronic billboard (Project) to be located at 880 South Lemon Avenue, in Diamond Bar.
The Project site is an undeveloped portion of the parking lot of the Walnut Valley Unified School District
(WVUSD) offices, with an associated Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) 8760-015-901. The electronic
billboard would be supported by an approximately 100-foot-tall pole structure, mounted with two light-
emitting diode (LED) screens that would be 14 feet tall and 48 feet wide.
The Project site has a General Plan land use and corresponding zoning of Commercial, and it is currently
occupied by two- and three-story commercial/industrial structures which house WVUSD headquarters
and maintenance facilities, with supporting surface parking and number of solar panel arrays that also
provide some shade. The site itself is commercial/industrial in nature, as WVUSD school buses are also
parked and stored at the Project site. No schools or students are present on the Project site. The Project
site is adjacent to the State Route (SR) 60 Freeway, and there are other commercial/industrial uses, as
well as a static billboard, adjacent to and surrounding the Project site. The sign would be visible from SR
60 and the surrounding area.
CEQA requires the evaluation of potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed
Development Code Amendment, as well as the installation of the electronic billboard. Other approvals
sought include Development Review, Conditional Use Permit, and a Development Agreement between
the City and WVUSD. Based on the RFP and our understanding of the Project, De Novo is proposing to
prepare a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the Project. If during the course of our evaluation it
becomes evident that a significant and unavoidable impact could result from the proposed Project, an
environmental impact report may be required. De Novo will communicate with the City immediately to
discuss next steps for a revised scope of work to reflect the appropriate level of CEQA documentation.
SCOPE OF WORK
We have prepared the following work plan in response to the RFP, our understanding of the Project, and
our experience preparing a variety of environmental clearance documents and associated technical
studies throughout California. The requested work effort will involve preparation of technical studies, an
Initial Study, and preparation of an MND.
TASK 1 PROJECT KICKOFF AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
1.1 Project Kickoff Meeting
The work program will be initiated with a kickoff meeting with City staff to discuss the project features in
greater detail. This initial meeting will be a key milestone to confirm the parameters of the analysis, project
construction program, buildout conditions, scheduling, and overall communications. Prior to the kickoff
meeting, De Novo will distribute an agenda and detailed memorandum, which will identify information
needs. De Novo will review all applicable Project information provided by the City, which may include site
plans, technical specifications, visual simulations, infrastructure plans, and other relevant information.
Based upon the detailed Project information obtained at the project kickoff meeting, De Novo will draft a
preliminary Project Description (Task 1.2) and project schedule for review and approval by the City staff.
5.5.b
Packet Pg. 82
De Novo Planning Group
City of Diamond Bar
16
1.2 Project Description and Site Visit
The Project Description is a critical element of the environmental review and establishes the foundation
for the technical analysis. The Project Description will detail the Project location and environmental
setting, project characteristics (construction and operation), project objectives, phasing, discretionary
actions, and required permits and approvals based on available information provided by the City. De Novo
will submit the Project Description to the City for review and approval. This scope assumes that De Novo
will respond to one set of consolidated comments from the City. We have assumed that no modifications
to the Project Description will occur after approval by the City.
Task 1 Deliverables: One electronic copy of the Kickoff Meeting Agenda/Minutes; One electronic copy of
the Schedule (with updates as needed); One electronic copy of the Draft and Final Project Description
(Word and PDF).
TASK 2 PREPARATION OF TECHNICAL STUDIES
In order to support the Project’s CEQA analysis, and as discussed with the City, De Novo anticipates that
the following technical studies will be required. If subsequent discussions with the City, or during
preparation of the evaluation, it Is determined that additional studies will be needed, an amendment t o
this work program would be required.
2.1 Visual Impacts Analysis
In order to support the Project’s CEQA analysis, De Novo will utilize our in-house design staff to assist with
preparation of visual simulations for the proposed Project. This will entail a survey of the site and the
surrounding area to take photos, including an electronic model of the sign and rendered exhibits depicting
the electronic billboard from up to five (5) vantage points. The visual simulations will be created with
SketchUp and Lumion software. It is assumed that a technical visual analysis of light spillage will not be
required, since there are no sensitive uses within a 500-foot radius of the Project site. De Novo assumes
that the City will provide all available technical information related to the electronic billboard, including
and not limited to, technical specifications of the billboards, illumination and/or lighting studies,
infrastructure plans, installation plans and timing, energy usage, operational characteristics and
messaging contents of the electronic billboards, operational timing, site photography, and any other
information that would assist in the technical evaluation of visual impacts. This information should be
provided in an electronic format.
2.2 Air Quality Analysis, Energy and Greenhous Gas Emissions Analyses
Air Quality. De Novo will utilize our in-house Environmental Scientists to prepare an Air Quality analysis
for this Project. The analysis will be prepared consistent with South Coast Air Quality Management District
(Air District) and State and Federal guidelines using the latest version of CalEEMod software. As
operational emissions would be limited, the analysis will primarily include a comparison of
the proposed Project’s construction-related emissions with the Air District's air quality thresholds of
significance for criteria pollutants, consistent with applicable Air District guidance. De Novo will also
analyze the potential for health risk and odor impacts on nearby receptors. This task does not include the
preparation of a Health Risk Assessment (HRA), since preparation of an HRA would not be appropriate for
the Project. The discussion will include the methodology for calculating emissions, an analysis of
the proposed Project’s air quality impacts, and a discussion of feasible mitigation measures that should
be implemented to reduce impacts on air quality, as appropriate.
5.5.b
Packet Pg. 83
De Novo Planning Group
Electronic Billboard Project CEQA Compliance
17
Energy. De Novo's will utilize our in-house Environmental Scientists to prepare an analysis and
quantification of Project energy usage, consistent with the requirements of the most recent version of
CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. The analysis will provide disclosure of the Project's estimated energy
consumption associated with long-term operations, as well as for construction-related activities. Further,
consistent with the applicable statutes and guidelines, De Novo will analyze the Project's potential for
wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy, and will also analyze whether the Project
would conflict with or obstruct any state or local plans for renewable energy or energy efficiency.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. De Novo’s in-house Environmental Scientists will prepare a Greenhouse Gas
Emissions analysis pursuant to the requirements of Executive Order S-3-05, The Global Warming Solutions
Act of 2006 (AB 32), the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2016: emissions limit (SB 32), and
The California Climate Crisis Act (AB 1279). The analysis will follow the California Air Pollution Control
Officers Association (CAPCOA) white paper methodology and recommendations presented in Climate
Change & CEQA, which was prepared in coordination with the California Air Resources Board and the
Governor’s Office of Planning and Research as a common platform for public agencies to ensure that GHG
emissions are appropriately considered and addressed under CEQA. The analysis will meet all of the
requirements of CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.4. This analysis will consider both a local and a regional
approach toward determining whether construction GHG emissions are significant, and will present
mitigation measures to reduce impacts, consistent with the guidance and significance thresholds provided
by the Air District, as applicable. The discussion and analysis will include quantification of GHGs generated
by the Project using the latest version of the CalEEMod computer model as well as a quantitative analysis
of the Project’s consistency with any applicable state and local plans.
2.3 Cultural Resources and Tribal Cultural Resources Services
De Novo has teamed with South Environmental to also provide cultural and tribal cultural resources
services.
CHRIS Records Search. South Environmental will request a California Historical Resources Information
Systems (CHRIS) records search of the project site and a 0.5-mile radius from the South Central Coastal
Information Center (SCCIC), which houses cultural records for Los Angeles County. The purpose of a
records search is to: identify any previously recorded cultural resources; review historical maps of the
project site; review the Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility lists; and gather information on
ethnographies. In addition, South Environmental will review the lists for the National Register of Historic
Places (NRHP), the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), and the lists of California State
Historical Landmarks, and California Points of Historical Interest.
Native American Outreach and Consultation. South Environmental will also assist the City with its
government-to-government AB 52 obligations by providing City staff with a detailed overview of the AB
52 process and required steps; request a Sacred Lands File Search and AB 52 Tribal Consultation List from
the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC); prepare notification letters and consultation letters
(as appropriate) to tribes requesting consultation on the Project using City letterhead; assist the City with
subsequent responses from tribes and consultation meetings that occur; and maintaining a detailed
record of all AB 52 consultation efforts on coordination with City staff. This scope assumes no more than
three (3) one-hour meetings with the City and tribes.
Cultural Resources Report. South Environmental will prepare a Cultural Resources Technical Report that
will summarize the results of the records search and the NAHC Sacred Lands File search. The report will
also discuss the proposed Project description, regulatory framework, all sources consulted,
5.5.b
Packet Pg. 84
De Novo Planning Group
City of Diamond Bar
18
recommendations for appropriate management, and analysis of the proposed project’s potential to
impact cultural resources under CEQA. This task assumes no more than two drafts and one final electronic
version of the report will be required. As the site is paved, a pedestrian archaeological survey is not
required.
Task 2 Deliverables
Draft and final visual simulations and their respective vantage locations would be provided to the City
electronically. Results of the Air Quality, Energy and GHG evaluations will be included in the text of the
IS/MND and any data will be included in an appendix. One electronic copy of draft and final Cultural
Resources Report will be provided (Word and PDF). The AB 52 letters will be provided to the City for
review, and it would subsequently be placed on City letterhead for transmittal to tribes.
TASK 3 ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT INITIAL STUDY
De Novo will prepare an Administrative Draft Initial Study for concurrent review by the City. The contents
of the Administrative Draft Initial Study will be consistent with all applicable provisions of CEQA and the
CEQA Guidelines, and will incorporate the analysis and findings of the technical studies:
3.1 Introduction
The Introduction will cite the provisions of CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines, and the City of Diamond Bar’s
CEQA Implementation procedures for which the proposed Project is subject.
3.2 Environmental Evaluation
This section will include a discussion of the potentially significant environmental impacts, mitigation
measures to reduce significant impacts to a level of insignificance, and a statement as to whether
mitigation measures will reduce impacts to a level of insignificance. The evaluation section will contain
appropriately detailed analysis and discussion of those environmental criteria deemed “Potentially
Significant Impact” and “Potentially Significant Impact Unless Mitigated”. Where the project would result
in “No Impact” or “Less Than Significant Impact” for particular environmental criteria, the Initial Study will
include a brief discussion which supports such a finding.
Aesthetics
According to the Diamond Bar General Plan 2040 EIR, scenic vistas within the City are focused in open
space, local hillsides and ridges, and distant views of the San Gabriel Mountains. The Project site is located
within an industrial/commercial and urbanized area of the City. Visual impacts from installation of the
electronic billboard will be discussed and evaluated. The analysis will be supported by the visual
simulations as described above in Task 2.1 and will focus on whether the Project would conflict with
applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic quality as identified in the Diamond Bar
Municipal Code. The analysis will also address the potential for the Project to create a new source of
substantial light or glare adversely affecting day or nighttime views in the area. Existing lighting within the
surrounding area will be qualitatively discussed. Information regarding the nature of the advertisements,
refresh rates, and other characteristics related to the digital messaging, would be discussed.
Agriculture and Forestry Resources
The Project site is not identified by the California Important Farmland Finder as Farmland of Local
Importance and does not contain agricultural resources; nor does the project site contain forest land.
5.5.b
Packet Pg. 85
De Novo Planning Group
Electronic Billboard Project CEQA Compliance
19
Further, the project site is not zoned for agricultural use or forest land. Thus, the Initial Study will confirm
no impact to agricultural and forestry resources.
Air Quality
This section will incorporate the findings of the Air Quality analysis referenced in Task 2.2.
Biological Resources
This section will qualitatively evaluate impacts to biological resources, as the Project site is in a parking
lot. Standard regulatory requirements, in accordance with City requirements, related to potentially
affected trees will be restated. No tree studies are included in this scope of work.
Cultural Resources
This section will incorporate the findings of the Cultural Resources assessment referenced in Task 2.3.
Energy
This section will incorporate the findings of the Energy analysis referenced in Task 2.2.
Geology/Soils
Utilizing the City-provided geotechnical studies and/or other existing resources, the analysis will identify
existing regional and local geology and soils constraints (such as compressible soils, landslide hazards,
disruptions, displacements, compaction, or over-covering of the soil, and areas subject to subsidence) and
seismic hazards, as well as liquefaction. While the City is located in a seismically active region, there are
no active faults within the City and it is not situated within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Zone, according
the City’s General Plan EIR. The Project will be evaluated for its potential to directly or indirectly cause
substantial adverse effects involving fault rupture, strong seismic ground shaking, seismic-related ground
failure (e.g., liquefaction), and landslides. This section will also address potential impacts related to
paleontological resources.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
This section will incorporate the findings of the Greenhouse Gas analysis referenced in Task 2.2.
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
The Project site is currently developed with the WVUSD headquarters, maintenance buildings and
supporting parking lot. Utilizing regulatory agency databases and/or a City-provided Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment, if available, De Novo’s evaluation will include a review of hazardous site
databases (e.g., California Environmental Protection Agency’s (Cal-EPA) Cortese List, the Department of
Toxic Substances Control EnviroStor database, the State Water Resources Control Board GeoTracker
database, Cal-EPA’s CAL-SITES Abandoned Site Program Information System (ASPIS) database, and others
that are deemed relevant). This section will include an analysis of potential hazards associated with Project
construction and operations.
Hydrology/Water Quality
De Novo will evaluate potential impacts to hydrology and water quality. The Federal Emergency
Management Agency indicates that this site is not in a flood zone, so flood risks in the Project area are
minimal. The site is flat and the electronic billboard will be installed in an already paved area, and as such,
5.5.b
Packet Pg. 86
De Novo Planning Group

20
it is assumed that installation is not anticipated to alter drainage patterns or hydrological conditions of
the Project site. As such, De Novo will conduct an analysis of potential hydrological impacts for purposes
of the CEQA evaluation; however, no technical studies or modeling will be prepared.
Land Use and Planning
The Project site is zoned as Commercial and the land use designation is Commercial. The Project would
not displace existing people or housing or divide an established community. The proposed Project will be
reviewed for any potential conflicts with a land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for purposes of
avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect.
Mineral Resources
No known mineral resources or recovery sites occur within the Project site. Thus, the Initial Study will
confirm no impact to mineral resources.
Noise
This section will provide a qualitative evaluation of noise, as the Project would entail limited construction
for the installation of the electronic billboard, and there are no sensitive receptors within the vicinity that
could be affected by its installation.
Population and Housing
The proposed Project would involve installation of an electronic billboard. Due to the limited nature of
the Project, there would be negligible impacts related to population and housing. It is anticipated the
discussion will qualitatively confirm the Project would not induce substantial unplanned population
growth.
Public Services
The Project would not involve the construction of new residential or commercial development. As such,
the potential environmental impacts to fire, police, schools, parks and public facilities would be negligible.
It is anticipated the discussion will confirm that the provision of other new or physically altered public
facilities would not be needed as a result of the Project.
Recreation
The Project proposes to install an electronic billboard in the parking lot of a commercial/industrial
property, and potential environmental impacts related to recreation would be negligible. It is anticipated
the analysis will confirm the Project would not result in substantial physical deterioration of a recreation
facility.
Transportation
Due to the nature of the Project, traffic impacts will be qualitatively evaluated. It is assumed that VMT
impacts would be screened out, as the Project would not generate vehicle trips in exceedance of a
screening threshold. A discussion of the appearance of the electronic billboard from surrounding streets
and SR 60 will be discussed. The Project would require a Caltrans Off-Premise Digital Billboard Permit, and
the characteristics of the digital messages will be considered in light of driver safety.

Tribal Cultural Resources
This section will incorporate the findings of the Cultural Resources Assessment referenced in Task 2.3
regarding potential impacts to tribal cultural resources, including any information obtained from Native
American tribes as part of the AB 52 consultation process, which will be facilitated by the City and South
Environmental.
Utilities/Service Systems
The ability of existing infrastructure to support the proposed development will be confirmed, including
assessing the relocation or construction of new or expanded facilities and the potential to result in an
environmental effect based upon information provided by the City and service providers. The discussion
will focus on the potential alteration of existing facilities, extension, or expansion of new facilities and the
minimal demand on services associated with the proposed development.
Wildfires
The Project site is not located within a fire hazard severity zone as delineated on CalFire Hazard Severity
Zone Maps for the City. Further, according to the General Plan, the City is not located in a fire threat zone.
Thus, the Initial Study will confirm that there would be no impact associated with wildfires.
Mandatory Findings of Significance
This section will focus on the cumulative effects and the potential for the Project to have environmental
effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings based in part on the analysis
conducted as part of the previous environmental topical areas.
3.3 Additional Sections and Exhibits
Additional Initial Study sections will be prepared and include the following: List of Preparers; References;
and Appendices. The environmental document will include exhibits to enhance the written text and clarify
the proposed Project.
3.4 Administrative Draft Initial Study Submittal
The previous tasks will result in the Administrative Draft Initial Study, which will be provided to the City
for concurrent review and comment.
3.5 Initial Study Findings and Meeting with City Staff
Once the Initial Study is completed and reviewed by City staff, De Novo will participate in a conference
call with City staff to review and discuss the findings of the Initial Study review. This scope assumes that
the City will provide one set of consolidated comments. Based upon the results of the Initial Study and
meeting with City staff, De Novo will prepare the appropriate CEQA compliance documentation, assumed
to be preparation of an MND.
Task 3 Deliverables. One electronic of the Administrative Draft IS with Appendices (Word and PDF); five
(5) hard copies; and meeting with City staff regarding Draft IS findings.
TASK 4 MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION
Should the analyses described in Tasks 2.0 and 3.0 determine that impacts could be mitigated to a less
than significant level, De Novo will prepare an MND.

4.1 Revised Draft IS/MND
De Novo will prepare a Revised Screencheck Draft IS/MND based upon comments received from the City
on the Administrative Draft IS. Changes to the Screencheck Draft IS/MND will be highlighted/provided in
tracked changes to assist the review.
4.2 Public Review Draft IS/MND
Comments received from City staff on the Revised Draft IS/MND will be addressed. De Novo will prepare
the Notice of Intent to Adopt a MND (NOI) for public review. De Novo will be responsible for posting the
NOI with the County Clerk and preparing the submittal documents to the State Clearinghouse. This scope
of work excludes radius mailing and newspaper noticing.
4.3 Final IS/MND
Upon completion of the public review period, De Novo will prepare a written response to the public
comments, and where necessary the appropriate revisions will be made to the IS/MND text. All responses
will be provided to City staff for review in the form of a Screencheck Final Initial Study/MND. We will make
any additional revisions as directed by the City and prepare a Final Initial Study/MND for consideration.
The Final Initial Study/MND will include a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. At this time, the
extent of public and agency comments that will result from the review process is unknown. This task
identifies a maximum budget allocation to prepare the responses to comments by the De Novo team. The
scope of work does not assume supplemental technical studies or extensive additional analysis will be
required to provide responses to comments.
4.4 Notice of Determination
De Novo will prepare and file a Notice of Determination (NOD) with the County Clerk and State
Clearinghouse. Our budget includes the filing fees for the County Clerk; however, any applicable CDFW
fees are excluded.
Task 4 Deliverables. One electronic copy of the Revised Draft IS/MND (Word and PDF); One electronic
copy of the Public Review Draft IS/MND (Word and PDF); Two (2) hardcopies of the Public Review Draft
IS/MND; Up to 30 copies of the Notice of Intent to Adopt (NOI) and Public Review Draft IS/MND on USB
mailed to the City’s distribution list; One electronic draft and final Notice of Intent; One electronic draft
and final Responses to Comments; One electronic draft and final MMRP; One electronic and three
hardcopies of the Final IS/MND to include the Responses to Comments, MMRP, and Errata; and One

Meeting Date: January 21, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: CONSULTING SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH SYTECH SOLUTIONS
FOR DOCUMENT SCANNING SERVICES.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Open, Engaged & Responsive Government
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the City Manager to sign Consulting Services Agreement with
SyTech Solutions for document scanning services through June 30, 2028.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The total not-to-exceed amount of the multi-year agreement is $150,000. Sufficient
funds in the amount of $50,000 are included in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 City Manager’s
Office – Professional Services to cover the cost of such services. Additional funds will
be appropriated in future fiscal years on an as-needed basis.
BACKGROUND:
On May 7, 2024, City Council approved and authorized the City Manager to sign the
Consulting Services Agreement with TSC LLC d.b.a. The Scanning Company for
document scanning services through June 30, 2027 . This agreement would have
replaced the City’s previous provider, Raycom Data Technologies, Inc., from which the
agreement expired on June 30, 2023. Following the agreement approval, TSC filed for
bankruptcy, which prompted the City to initiate another Request for Proposals (RFP).
This continuous effort and commitment to digitize records aligns with the City Council’s
Strategic Plan goal of fostering an Open, Engaged and Responsive Government. In
addition to reducing the expenses associated with offsite storage units, efficiently
archiving historical records, and improving document access for both staff and the
public, the contractual use of scanning services fulfills compliance with the City’s
Records Retention Schedule.
5.6
Packet Pg. 93
ANALYSIS:
The City issued an RFP for Citywide Scanning Services, which closed on September 6,
2024. Twelve (12) proposals were received and included price line items for the
baseline scenario in services of 15,000 sheets of paper in full color – 10,000 letter (8.5 x
11”) sheets and 5,000 oversized sheets. Associated services include, but are not limited
to: pick-up, delivery, document preparation, scanning of documents in various sizes and
conditions, page rotation, file re-assembly, metadata entry, OC conversion, data
transfer and quality control check.
A brief summary of each proposer’s per service cost is provided below:

FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM
ALLOCATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025/2026.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Open the public hearing to receive public testimony;
B. Close the public hearing; and
C. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-02 approving the Community Development Block Grant
Funding Allocations for Fiscal Year 2025/26.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Fiscal Year 2025/2026 funding for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Program is estimated at $354,533, and is received from the Federal Government on a
reimbursement basis. Approval of the 2025/2026 CDBG funding allocations will be
incorporated into the Fiscal Year 2025/2026 City Budget. The CDBG Program does not
impact the City's General Fund budget.
BACKGROUND:
By way of a Cooperative Agreement, the City of Diamond Bar is one of 48 participating
cities served by the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) 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:
6.1
Packet Pg. 107
• Benefiting low- and moderate-income persons;
• Addressing slums or blight; or
• Meeting a particular urgent community development need.
The projects must also fall within 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 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, ADA retrofit and improvements for parks, public works projects, and home
improvement programs. 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).
Diamond Bar’s preliminary funding allocation for Fiscal Year 2024/25 is $277,036. In
addition to the annual allocation, $77,497 is available from prior year unexpended funds
and Home Improvement Program loan repayments . Total funding for the FY 2025/26
CDBG program is thus $354,533.
LACDA anticipates receiving notification of the final allocation from the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) during the first quarter of 2025. The CDBG
Program has experienced funding adjustments in prior years, so the City should be
prepared to accommodate a federal funding adjustment that could affect LACD A’s final
allocations. In the event that the final allocation is higher or lower than this report’s
estimate by 25% or less, the draft resolution provides authorization for the City Manager
to administratively adjust the individual program allocations. Should the final allocation
differ from the estimate by more than 25%, City Council approval of any program
allocation changes would be required.
The City’s approved projects and budget must be submitted to the LACDA by February
1, 2024. Diamond Bar’s projects and budget will ultimately become part of the Los
Angeles County’s CDBG program application to HUD.
Distribution of Funds
The City’s allocation of CDBG funds is subject to the following distribution limits:
• 15% of new allocations to support community service programs for eligible persons.
• 85% of new allocations toward public works and housing projects that directly benefit
eligible persons (e.g., ADA improvements for sidewalks and parks, and deferred
loans for home improvements).
• Unallocated funds, including deferred loan repayments and carryovers from the prior
fiscal year may be used to fund eligible public works and housing projects.
6.1
Packet Pg. 108
The cost of project administration and contract compliance services are charged on a
project-based model which allows the City use CDBG funds to pay for costs associated
with meeting the regulatory requirements on a per project basis. CDBG project
administration is being implemented by City staff with assistance from the City’s
consultant, Diana Cho and Associates. Project management for the CDBG -funded
Home Improvement Program is performed by FRJ & Associates on behalf of the City.
Current Fiscal Year 2024/25 CDBG Projects and Allocations ($366,608)
The programs funded for the current fiscal year, as amended, are summarized below:
o Senior Programming ($38,018) – These programs normally include information
and referral, physical mobility classes, seminars, arts and crafts, game days, senior
excursions, and special events, as well as partially subsidizing the salary of a
Recreation Specialist. General Insurance has been purchased for the senior groups
utilizing the Heritage Park Community Center and Diamond Bar Center. More than
500 seniors participate in the various programs and activities offered by the City.
o Home Improvement Program (HIP) ($160,000) – The HIP offers deferred loans to
eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners of single-family detached housing
for necessary home improvements, as well as repairs to mitigate building and safety
code deficiencies and/or violations. The City’s HIP policies provide interest-free,
deferred loans of up to $30,000 to eligible households. Loans become payable
when the homes are sold or refinanced.
Both CDBG and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) program funds are
used to issue HIP loans. The cumulative amount of HIP funding available for FY
24/25 is $378,098, which is summarized below:
Cumulative HIP Funding for FY 24/25
CDBG $160,000
PLHA Year 2
$218,098
Totals $378,098
As of this writing, three CDBG-funded projects are out to bid, and one application is
approved. It is anticipated that a total of five (5) CDBG-funded HIP funded projects
will be approved by the end of the fiscal year, totaling $128,000 in loans and
$32,000 in administrative costs.
o Area 5 Residential Neighborhood ADA Curb Ramp Improvements Project
($168,590) – Area 5 is bounded by the Pomona Freeway (SR 60), Diamond Bar
Boulevard, and the neighborhoods generally to the north and west of Armitos Place
and Highcrest Drive. The project incorporates ADA accessibility to existing
sidewalks through the construction of up to nine ADA-compliant curb ramps in
conjunction with scheduled roadway resurfacing at various locations where no curb
ramps, or noncompliant ramps, are presently provided. The project is currently in
6.1
Packet Pg. 109
the design phase and is preliminarily scheduled to go into construction in the spring
of 2026.
DISCUSSION:
Proposed CDBG Projects and Allocations for FY 2025/26
The recommended project funding for Fiscal Year 202 5/26 is based on the applications
submitted and the estimated availability of funds. 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 subrecipient
supported activities, including compliance with all applicable federal requirements and
for monitoring the achievement of performance goals.
Federal regulations require CDBG funds to be allocated and expended within three (3)
years. In addition, the LACDA strongly encourages participant cities to earmark all
monies as soon as feasible.
As stated in the Background section of this report, the CDBG funding estimate for FY
2024/25 is $354,533. The breakdown for the estimated funds is as follows:
New annual allocation $277,036
Prior year unallocated and/or reprogrammed funds 77,497
Total estimated CDBG funds for FY 2025/26 $354,533
Program Selection Process
On October 18, 2024, the City posted a notice on its website to inform organizations
that it was accepting applications for program funding through November 15, 2024.
Applications from the City, the City’s five active senior clubs and Upwards, Care, Inc.
were received during the application period to support the following programs and
6.1
Packet Pg. 110
projects for the next fiscal year:
1. Senior Programs
2. Home Improvement Program
3. Area 6 Residential Neighborhood Curb Ramps
4. Business support and technical assistance to in-home childcare providers (Upwards
Care)
After consulting with LACDA, staff determined that Upwards Care is ineligible to receive
CDBG funding as a direct recipient because it is a for-profit company. For-profit
companies may only receive CDBG funding through a procurement process, where a
City-sponsored program is first established, and qualified vendors are sought out via a
request for proposals (RFP).
Funds requested from the three remaining applications total $351,340. The
recommended distribution of CDBG monies to utilize the entire funding estimate in
accordance with HUD rules is detailed below.
Public Services/Senior Programs
The public service funding cap is $41,555, or 15% of the estimated new CDBG annual
allocation for FY 2025/26.
The only application in this category is for funding to support senior programming,
administered through the Parks and Recreation Department. The City Council has
historically approved CDBG funding to be allocated to the Senior Programs budget.
As in prior years, the Senior Programs application proposes to accommodate several of
the activities and supplies as requested by the Diamond Bar Senior Citizens Club,
Diamond Bar Evergreen Senior Association, Sunshine Seniors Association, Diamond
Age Senior Club, Super Diamond Age Senior Club and Federation of Hindus
Association. The application also requests reimbursement for a portion of the City’s
Senior Program Coordinator’s hours spent administering the programs, as well as for
supplies and insurance purchased to host events at the Diamond Bar Center.
Parks and Recreation is requesting $46,340 (see Attachment 2) to offset senior
programming expenses. The amount requested exceeds estimated funding available
for public services by $4,785.
Recommendation
With no other competing proposals in the Public Services category, it is recommended
that the entire FY 2025/26 funding estimate of $41,555 be allocated to Senior
Programs. This amount will cover supplies, liability insurance, CDBG project
administration consultant costs and a portion of the Recreation Specialist salary.
Public Works and Housing
The allocation for Public Works and Housing projects includes $235,481 from the
6.1
Packet Pg. 111
estimated FY 2025/26 allocation (i.e., 85% of $277,036) and $77,497 in unallocated
CDBG funds accumulated from project savings and loan repayments, for a total of
$312,978.
Staff received two applications for funding from this category, which are included in
Attachment 2:
1. The Diamond Bar Public Works Department requests $145,000 for the Area 6
Residential Neighborhood ADA Curb Ramps Improvement Project.
2. The Diamond Bar Community Development Department requests $1 60,000 for the
Home Improvement Program.
The total funding requested from these two applications is thus $305,000, which is
slightly under, by $7,978, the estimated funding available in this category. The City
Council may thus allocate the surplus amount available to one or both of the programs
in this category.
o Area 6 Residential Neighborhood ADA Curb Ramp Improvements Project
Area 6 is bounded by the 60 Freeway to the south, the 57 Freeway to the west,
Temple Avenue/Avenida Rancheros to the north, and Looking Glass Drive to the
east. The project is to provide ADA accessibility to existing sidewalks through the
construction of ADA-compliant curb ramps at various locations where no curb ramps
are presently provided. The application requests $145,000 to construct seven (7)
curb ramps to comply with the latest ADA requirements, as well as CDBG
administration costs.
6.1
Packet Pg. 112
o Home Improvement Program
As stated, the HIP provides deferred zero-interest loans of up to $30,000 to eligible
low and moderate-income homeowners for necessary home improvements as well
as repairs to mitigate building and safety code deficiencies and/or violations. The
requested allocation of $160,000 would accommodate at least five (5) loans,
including program administration funds for the HIP consultant.
The HIP is again funded by both CDBG and Permanent Local Housing Allocation
(PLHA) monies. With the recommended CDBG allocation, the cumulative amount of
HIP funding available for FY 25/26 would be $450,664, as summarized below:
Cumulative HIP Funding for FY 25/26
CDBG $167,978
PLHA Year 3 $290,664
Totals $458,642
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Area 6 project and Home Improvement Program each
receive the full amount requested. Staff further recommends that the remaining $7,978
available this category be allocated to the HIP, so that the funds would be distributed as
follows:
Area 6 Curb Ramp Project $ 145,000
Home Improvement Program $ 167,978
Total $ 312,978
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Total funding available for CDBG programs during the upcoming fiscal year is estimated
to be $354,533. Three of the four applications received are eligible for CDBG funding,
although the rules governing the distribution of funds means that the amount available
for public services (i.e., senior programming) is slightly less than the amount requested.
It is therefore recommended that the City Council approve the following distribution of
funds, the total of which is equal to the estimated allocation:
FISCAL YEAR 2025/26 CDBG PROGRAM ALLOCATION RECOMMENDATIONS
PUBLIC SERVICES
Senior Programs $41,555
Public Services Subtotal $41,555
PUBLIC WORKS & HOUSING
Area 6 ADA Curb Ramp Improvements $145,000
Home Improvement Program $167,978
Public Works & Housing Subtotal $312,978
TOTAL CDBG FUNDING RECOMMENDATION FOR FY 2024/25 $354,533

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.
The proposed project would utilize Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for the project
construction phase of new or upgraded handicapped accessible sidewalk curb ramps at various
locations within the Area 6 residential neighborhood (Area) as shown in the attached Exhibit “A”. The
curb ramps will be constructed to meet current standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA). Seven ADA-compliant sidewalk curb ramps will be built in the Area at various locations where
currently there is not a ramp or the existing ramp is not compliant with the current standards. The
constructed ramps will provide handicapped access and a safer environment to the public.
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.
As recommended in the ADA Self Evaluation, this project is part of the City’s efforts to upgrade all
non-ADA-compliant curb ramps citywide. The project would provide for the construction of curb
ramps where no curb ramps currently exist and the reconstruction of curb ramps that are too steep,
deteriorated, not wide enough, or create other accessibility barriers for severely disabled members of
the public that use wheelchairs, canes, walkers or crutches.
Identify and describe the geographic boundaries of the target area. (Attach a map if appropriate).
The project target area is located within Area 6 Residential Neighborhood as shown in the attached
Exhibit “A”. The proposed locations of the ramps are marked in the map.

CDBG funds will be used to cover part of the salaries and benefits for

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.
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.
Upwards' Boost Program offers personalized business support and technical assistance to in-home childcare
providers serving children ages 0-5 and up to age 13 for before- and after-school care. These microenterprises,
often employing fewer than 5 people, receive 12 months of individual coaching to help build sustainable business
operations and improve financial stability. BOOST equips childcare providers with essential digital tools, including
marketing support, family matching services, enrollment automation, electronic billing, payment processing, and
curriculum management systems. By introducing best practices for streamlining daily operations and reducing
administrative burdens, BOOST enables providers to increase capacity, improve the quality of care, and ensure
consistent revenue streams. The program’s impact is measurable and significant. BOOST aims to increase the
revenue of participating providers by an average of 20% over the 12-month period, helping them reach full
enrollment and optimize their business models. In addition, BOOST is expected to create new LMI jobs, as
providers expand their staff to meet growing demand. BOOST also directly benefits the community by stabilizing
essential childcare services for low- to moderate-income (LMI) families. These families rely on accessible,
affordable childcare to maintain employment and housing stability. By supporting the economic sustainability of
local childcare providers, BOOST contributes to the broader economic health of the region, enabling parents to
work and reducing childcare deserts in underserved areas.
Diamond Bar faces a critical need for childcare services, as highlighted by both community feedback and various
demographic and economic factors. A recent survey of several thousand working families reveals that 94% of
residents strongly agree or agree that childcare is the most pressing issue facing our community. Furthermore, 60%
indicated they would consider moving to a nearby city with a better childcare program. Alarmingly, 58.8% of
families said they would use the money saved on childcare to buy food, underscoring the heartbreaking link
between childcare costs and food insecurity. In Diamond Bar, there are nearly 2512 children under the age of six,
emphasizing the vital role that early care and education play in brain development, socialization, and school
readiness (U.S. Census, 2020). The demand for childcare is further demonstrated by the approximately 536
households in the region with children under six, whose well-being and economic participation depend on reliable,
affordable childcare options. This need is particularly acute for single-parent households, where nearly 536 children
live with one parent. Addressing childcare challenges for these families is essential to preventing homelessness and
promoting upward economic mobility (U.S. Census, 2021; National Alliance to End Homelessness, 2022). In addition
to the significant demand for services, the economic challenges faced by childcare workers highlight the need for
immediate intervention. Childcare workers in City earn an average of $17.70, considerably less than their
counterparts in elementary education. This wage disparity, combined with the high poverty rate among early
educators, further stresses the system (Zippia, 2022; Center for the Study of Child Care Employment, 2020). Surveys
conducted by RAPID from 2021 to 2023 reveal that 44% of childcare providers struggle to meet basic needs like
food, housing, and utilities. Among family home childcare providers and center teachers, the material hardship is
most severe, with one in three experiencing food insecurity. Additionally, 43% of providers expressed concerns
about being unable to pay rent or mortgage (RAPID, 2024). BOOST seeks to address these challenges by offering
crucial business support to microenterprise daycares, promoting stability and sustainability within the childcare
industry in Diamond Bar. By providing tailored assistance to providers, BOOST ensures that they can meet the needs
of the local community, particularly low- and very-low-income families who rely on these essential services.

Upwards Annual Organizational Budget Explanation
Requirement Not Applicable.
Due to Upwards’for-profit status,the Organizational Budget has been omitted from this
application and we have instead included an annual Balance Sheet and Profit &Loss
(P&L)Statement attached below.We appreciate your consideration of our proposal and
would like to address the confidentiality of this information and why it should be treated
as such:
●Competitive Advantage:Our operating budget contains sensitive financial data,
including revenue projections,cost structures,and strategic allocation of
resources.Disclosure of this information to competitors could provide them with a
significant competitive advantage,potentially compromising our ability to
compete effectively in the marketplace.
●Protection of Trade Secrets:The operating budget may contain proprietary
information and trade secrets that are critical to our business operations.
Revealing this information to external parties could jeopardize our ability to
maintain our competitive edge and protect our intellectual property.
●Financial Security:The operating budget includes details of our financial health,
cash flow,and investment plans.Disclosure of this data could pose financial
security risks,including potential exploitation by malicious actors who seek to
exploit vulnerabilities in our financial structure.
●Market Sensitivity:The budget may also contain market research,pricing
strategies,and other sensitive information that,if exposed,could disrupt market
dynamics and negatively impact our company and the markets we serve.
We want to emphasize that our commitment to confidentiality does not impede our
willingness to cooperate fully with your agency's evaluation process and to potentially
provide alternative documentation that will aid in the thorough review of our proposal.To
that end,we have included a Balance Sheet and P&L Statement attached below.
We appreciate your understanding of our concerns and your attention to the protection
of our sensitive,proprietary information.

To Whom It May Concern,
The purpose of this letter is to provide context for the financial standing of WeeCare,
Inc dba Upwards,as it may be di erent from other companies generally participating
in the industry.We hope that this context helps support your consideration of our
company as we submit a proposal for service.
As is typical of a high-growth,venture-backed,for-profit organization,Upwards is
growing in -and investing in -operational scale,which expands operating expenses to
accommodate for revenue growth.Exhibit A reflects this trajectory from $6.4M to
$15.2M in Revenue over three years,which represent +60%and +49%YoY increases.
To maintain a strong financial position in a situation where the company is increasing
expenses for downstream growth (lowering cash flow from operations),Upwards has
raised equity rounds of financing from some of the most reputable venture firms in
the technology space (elevating cash flow from financing).Exhibit B reflects Liquidity
Ratios that would be considered healthy by any measure;from the basic Current
Ratio to the most stringent Cash Ratio.And,as you may be aware,Upwards recently
closed a $21M Series B round to further bolster our cash position.
We hope this short memo provides context on our financial standing.To be sure,our
financial strategy is reflective of our mission:to Solve Care for Good.To do so,
Upwards continues to execute on our high-growth plan,and continues to submit
proposals such as this,so that we can grow the imprint of our impact,alongside
partners like you.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.We are excited at the
opportunity to work with you and are open to discuss any inquiries you may have.
Sincerely,
Johnny Chan
COO/CFO

Agenda #: 7.1
Meeting Date: January 21, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: TRANSMITTAL OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2023/24 ANNUAL
COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT (ACFR).
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and File the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023/24 annual audit has been completed by the City’s
independent audit firm of Lance, Soll and Lunghard, LLP (LSL). The City’s Finance
Department, in concert with LSL, has prepared the FY 2023/24 Annual Comprehensive
Financial Report (ACFR). The City’s Audit Subcommittee, which is comprised of Mayor
Chia Yu Teng and Mayor Pro Tem Steve Tye, met on January 15, 2025 with the City
Manager, Finance Director and an LSL representative to discuss the results of the audit.
In the opinion of LSL, the financial statements reflect fairly the financial position and
results of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The auditors indicated
that there were no disagreements with management while completing their audit, and
that they found no instances of material weaknesses in the City’s internal controls and
no instances of non-compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts or
grants, which could have a material effect on the determination of financi al statement
amounts. In other words, the City has received a clean audit with no findings.
The ACFR has been prepared in conformance with the requirements of the Government
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34. As a result, the report format
includes the Management Discussion and Analysis, Required Supplementary
7.1
Packet Pg. 151
Information, and the Government-wide Financial Statements which include the
Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities. A copy of the FY 2023/24 ACFR
is included as Attachment 1.
ANALYSIS:
Revenues
Citywide revenues for FY 2023/24 from all sources (i.e., all funds) were $45.0 million,
which exceeded last year’s total by $0.5 million (or 1.0%).
General Fund revenues were $33.1 million, a decrease of $0.2 million (or -0.7%) from
the prior year, yet exceeded the Revised Budget of $31.9. million as a result of out -
performing investment returns offset by underperforming sales tax receipts.
Expenditures
Citywide expenditures for all City programs and activities in FY 2023/24 totaled
$40.0 million, an increase of $2.5 million over the previous year (or 6.8%).
General Fund expenditures for FY 2023/24 were $33.2 million, an amount that was
$5.2 million below the Revised Budget of $38.4 million. Of this amount, $2.4 million of
encumbered expenses was appropriated for ongoing programs, initiatives and Capital
Improvement Projects that were still underway as of June 30, 2024. These encumbered
funds will be carried over and set aside for use in the current FY 2024/25.
Reserve Balances
Taken in aggregate, fund balances for all governmental funds were $66.0 million at the
end of FY 2023/24, an increase of $2.8 million compared to FY 2022/23. Of this total,
$34.5 million in reserves belong to the City’s General Fund which may be used to meet
the City’s ongoing obligations to its citizens and creditors.
The total General Fund reserve balance of $34.5 million represents a decrease of
$101 thousand. This is a favorable result considering the Revised Budget assumed an
operating deficit of -$6.5 million in order to fund one-time projects. A history of
7.1
Packet Pg. 152
governmental fund balances for the prior 10 years is shown below. More information on
reserve balances can be found in Note 11 of the ACFR and in the Statistical Section.
Reserve Funding
The FY 2023/24 ACFR includes the fund balance reserve reporting methodology set
forth in GASB Statement No. 54. It is a long-term goal to of the City to build unrestricted
reserve funds to provide flexibility, respond to emergencies, fund new projects and
replace and maintain facilities, capital equipment and assets. Therefore, the City
Council approved an updated Fund Balance and Reserves Policy on August 20, 2019
(Res. No. 2019-36) which established that an amount of no less than 25% of General
Fund expenditures be set aside as a formal commitment of fund balance to be used in
the event of a Federal, State or Local emergency.
At June 30, 2024, the amount committed to emergency contingencies totals $8,217,405
(25% of the FY 2024/25 Adopted General Fund Budget). This amount is included within
the $34.5 million General Fund reserve balance noted above and is highlighted
separately in the below schedule which shows balances for key operating reserves.
7.1
Packet Pg. 153
As shown in the table above, as of June 30, 2024, the total Unassigned portion of the
General Fund Reserve decreased -$1.3 million. This was mainly the result of funding
other key reserve funds and General Fund reserve categories throughout the fiscal
year. For example, Unassigned Reserves were utilized to shift an additional $236.2
thousand to the Contingency Reserve (25%), and an additional $763.5 thousand was
shifted from the Unassigned Reserves to the Capital Improvement Projects Reserve to
ensure adequate funding for ongoing capital improvement projects. In addition to this,
some Unassigned Reserves were used to transfer $1.2 million to both the Park
Development and Building Maintenance & Replacement Funds ($2.4 million total) in
early 2024 pursuant to the City’s Fund Balance and Reserves Policy. Total Transfers -
out were for FY 2023/24 were $6.4 million (see Statement of Revenues, Expenditures,
and Changes in Fund Balances on ACFR p. 24 for additional information).
Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Fund
As required by GASB Statement No. 75, the ACFR includes disclosure of the City’s
Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) liability. In connection with the retirement
benefits for employees provided through California Public Employees Retirement
System (CalPERS), the City provides post-retirement health care benefits to retirees
through the CalPERS Health Benefits program. Although the retiree pays most of the
cost of this benefit the City is required to pay a small portion of this cost – the City’s
OPEB obligation is derived from this benefit. The City’s total OPEB obligation at
June 30, 2024 was $1,386,464. However, when taking into account the City’s OPEB
trust fund balance of $782,823 (57% of liability) held with the California Employers’
Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT) the net liability reduces to $603,641. Additional funding
7.1
Packet Pg. 154
in the amount of $313,523 (23% of liability) is also set aside in an OPEB Reserve fund
(see table above) held by the City for future contributions to the trust, for a total funding
status of 80%, which is an increase from the 74% funding status as of the prior year
ending June 30, 2023, and a significant improvement from the 71% funding status the
year ending June 30, 2022.
This funding level is considered quite favorable when compared to other cities and
meets the City’s desired 80% funding status established in the City’s Fund Balance and
Reserves Policy.
Pension Liability
GASB Statement No. 68 requires the inclusion of Net Pension Liability in the Statement
of Net Position. As of June 30, 2024, the City reported a total net pension liability of
$8,772,989 (an increase from the prior year amount of $7,903,769). As of the most
recent valuation date of June 30, 2023, the City’s miscellaneous plan is approximately
75.4% funded, and the PEPRA Miscellaneous plan is 87.0% funded. Both funding
amounts have remained flat year-over-year and are favorable when compared to other
cities. Changes in the total net pension liability are mostly attributable to the market rate
of return on the statewide portfolio managed by CalPERS. More information on
pensions may be found in Note 8 of the ACFR.

The Finance Department will submit the FY 2023/24 ACFR to the Government Finance
Officers Association (GFOA) for consideration to receive the Certificate of Achievement

To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council
and the Residents of the City of Diamond Bar, California:
It is an honor to submit to you the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the
City of Diamond Bar for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. This report consists of
management’s representations concerning the finances of the City. Consequently,
responsibility for both the accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and
fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the City’s management. To
provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the City
has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to
protect the City’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable
information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in conformance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Because the cost of internal controls
should not outweigh their benefits, the City’s comprehensive framework of internal
controls has been designed to provide assurance that the financial statements will be free
from misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and
belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material aspects.
The City’s financial statements have been audited by Lance, Soll, & Lunghard, LLP, a firm
of certified public accountants. The goal of the independent audit is to provide
reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City for fiscal year ended
June 30, 2024, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
The independent auditor concluded based upon the audit that there was a reasonable
basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City’s financial statements for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2024, were fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The
independent auditor’s report is presented as the first component of the financial section
of this report.
GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and
analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s
Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement and
should be read in conjunction with the MD&A. The City’s MD&A can be found
immediately following the report of the independent auditors.

PROFILE OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
The City of Diamond Bar was incorporated on April 18, 1989, and is located at the eastern
edge of Los Angeles County in the East San Gabriel Valley. Diamond Bar is primarily a
residential community of about 57,000, situated among the meandering hills and valleys
of Brea Canyon. Many desired services can be found in Diamond Bar's shopping and
business centers. Recreational opportunities within the City include more than 75 acres
of developed park facilities, hiking trails, a community center, a County-owned and
operated 18-hole public golf course and more than 370 acres of undeveloped publicly
owned open space.
Diamond Bar is also strategically located at the junction of the SR-57 and SR-60 freeways
with easy access to I-10 and SR-71 freeways. This makes Diamond Bar a desirable and
convenient location to live and work within close proximity to Los Angeles, Orange,
Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
Diamond Bar is a General Law city and operates under the council-manager form of
government. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in a five- member City
Council. The City Council is responsible, among other things, for passing ordinances,
adopting the budget, appointing Commissioners, and hiring both the City Manager and
contracting for City Attorney services. The Council Members are elected by districts on
a non-partisan basis and serve four-year staggered terms, with elections held every other
year. Each December, the City Council selects a Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem from its
membership. The City Manager is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations
of the City, and for appointing the heads of the various departments.
The City of Diamond Bar operates primarily as a “contract city” utilizing agreements with
other governmental agencies, private sector firms and individuals to provide many of its
essential services. This includes law enforcement services, animal services, building and
safety services, engineering, road maintenance and landscape maintenance.
The Los Angeles County Fire District provides fire protection, which is independent of the
City. Los Angeles County also provides library services through a Library District, and
sewer and sanitation services through a Sanitation District. Funds for these services are
collected through property tax bills and are disbursed directly by the Los Angeles County
Tax Collector's Office to those entities.
Water services for the City are provided by the Walnut Valley Water District. Refuse
collection is provided by private waste collection companies. Additionally, schools are
provided by both the Walnut Valley Unified School District and the Pomona
Unified School District. Accordingly, none of these activities are included in this report.
ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
The Adopted FY 2024/25 Budget offers a positive outlook and continues to provide for
many City programs and services, advance deferred maintenance and Capital
Improvement Projects, and focuses on key initiatives consistent with the City’s Long-Term
Financial Stability Report.
ii
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 165
Aside from modest increases to key revenue sources, management remains cautious
and conservative in budgeting due to ongoing pressure from rising costs driven by a
competitive labor market, increased prices for materials and service delivery, higher fuel
prices, and uncertainty related to the future of interest rates. Importantly, the proposed
budget implements the various objectives and priorities of the City Council guided by the
adopted FY 2024-2027 Strategic Plan.
Economic Development continues to be an area of priority for the City. Accordingly, the
FY 2024/25 Budget incorporates resources dedicated to continue planning efforts to
create a pedestrian-oriented and walkable Town Center and programs to retain current
businesses and attract new businesses that increase the City’s employment base and
generate revenue. In addition, efforts are underway to establish a “Shop Diamond Bar
First, Keep It Local” campaign and a local rewards program to encourage residents to
invest in their community through supporting local businesses.
AWARDS
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA)
awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City
of Diamond Bar for its annual comprehensive financial report for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2023. The Certificate of Achievement is a prestigious national award recognizing
conformance with the highest standards for preparation of state and local financial
reports.
In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government unit must publish
an easily readable and efficiently organized annual comprehensive financial report
(ACFR), with contents that conform to program standards. The ACFR must satisfy both
generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. The City of Diamond
Bar has received the Certificate of Achievement for the last twenty-nine consecutive
years (fiscal years ended 1995 through 2023). We believe our current report continues to
meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s requirements and we will be submitting
it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
REPORTING ENTITY AND ITS SERVICES
This Annual Comprehensive Financial Report includes all funds of the City. The City
directly provides a limited range of services and contracts for several other services. The
City's significant reliance on contracted services has the benefit of reducing expenses to
the citizens of the City of Diamond Bar while simultaneously providing the City with a high
degree of flexibility in responding to changing economic conditions.
iii
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 166
Contracted services include law enforcement protection, building and safety, street
maintenance, park maintenance, capital improvement projects, animal control,
attorney services and engineering. Staff provided services include: community
development (which includes planning, building and safety administration, and
neighborhood improvement), public works (which includes engineering, capital
projects administration, street maintenance contract management, traffic and
transportation matters, engineering contract management, park maintenance,
landscape maintenance and solid waste contract management), parks & recreation
(which includes senior services, recreation services, community events and community
center operation), public information, subsidized transit ticket sales, grant administration,
financial management, administrative management, human resources and risk
management, information systems and economic development. All of these activities
are included in this report.
INTERNAL CONTROLS
The City of Diamond Bar’s accounting system has been developed by giving
consideration to the adequacy of internal accounting controls. Internal accounting
controls are implemented by the City to provide reasonable assurance that assets are
safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition; and that the City’s
financial records used for preparing financial statements are maintained in a reliable
fashion. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of these controls
should not exceed the benefits derived from them. The City’s internal controls
accomplish these objectives.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The preparation of this Annual Comprehensive Financial Report was made possible by
the dedicated service and excellence found within the City's Finance Department staff,
and through the cooperation of the entire City staff. Each City staff member has my
sincere appreciation for their cooperation and contributions in the preparation of this
Report.
I would like to thank Jason Jacobsen, Finance Director, for his prudent fiscal stewardship.
In addition, I would also like to thank our independent auditor, Lance, Soll, and Lunghard,
LLP, who provided expertise and advice in the preparation of the City's Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report.
In closing, without the leadership and support of the City Council of the City of Diamond
Bar, the preparation of this Report would not have been possible.
Sincerely,
Daniel Fox
City Manager

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Diamond Bar, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the
aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Diamond Bar, California (the “City”), as of and for the year
ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic
financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective
financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of
the City, as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows
thereof, for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America
and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be
independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical
requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and
maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events,
considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for
twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise
substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 172
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Diamond Bar, California
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing
Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material
if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by
a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing
Standards, we:
x Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
x Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
x Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
x Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
x Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified
during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion
and analysis, budgetary comparison information, and required pension and other postemployment benefits
schedules, as listed on the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such
information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required
by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for
placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have
applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods
of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our
inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial
statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited
procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

7.1.a
Packet Pg. 173
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Diamond Bar, California
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise
the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying combining and individual fund financial statements and
schedules (“supplementary information”) are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required
part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from
and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements.
The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying
accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements
themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America. In our opinion, the supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation
to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises
the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor’s report
thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express
an opinion or any form of assurance thereon.
In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and
consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements,
or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude
that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 10, 2025, on
our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain
provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is
solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results
of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over financial
reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As management of the City of Diamond Bar, we offer readers this narrative overview and
analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. We
encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with
additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
x The total revenues from all sources totaled $44,954,618, an increase of 1.0% from
the prior year.
x The total cost of all City programs totaled $39,993,477 an increase of 6.8% from the
prior year.
x The assets and deferred outflows of the City of Diamond Bar exceeded its liabilities
and deferred inflows at the close of the fiscal year by $399,708,488 (net position),
an increase of $5.0 million from the prior year. Of this amount, $36,631,555
represents unrestricted net position may be used to meet the City’s ongoing
obligations to citizens and creditors.
x As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City of Diamond Bar’s governmental
funds reported combined ending fund balances of $65,965,883, an increase of
$2.8 million in comparison with the prior year. Approximately $36.6 million of the
$65.9 million is unrestricted and available for spending at the City’s discretion,
including amounts assigned and committed by city council action.
x At the end of the current fiscal year, the Unassigned Fund Balance of the General
Fund was $21,674,550 which represents a $1.3 million decrease from the prior year
amount of $22,959,067. The Unassigned Fund Balance is in addition to a $8,217,405
reserve for emergencies/contingencies as established by Council resolution and
$2,072,420 committed to capital projects for City parks and facilities. The reduction
in General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance was mainly due to transferring funds to
these two reserves.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the
City of Diamond Bar’s basic financial statements. The City of Diamond Bar’s basic
financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial
statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to basic financial statements. This
report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial
statements themselves.
5
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 176
Government–wide Financial Statements. The government-wide financial statements are
designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City of Diamond Bar’s finances,
in a manner similar to a private-sector business. These statements include the statement
of net position and the statement of activities.
The statement of net position presents financial information on all of the
City of Diamond Bar’s assets, liabilities and deferred inflows/outflows of resources with the
difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position
may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City of Diamond
Bar is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City’s net position
changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as
soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of
related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some
items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and
earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the
City of Diamond Bar that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental
revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all
or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type
activities). The governmental activities of the City of Diamond Bar include general
government, public safety, highways and streets, community development, and parks
and recreation. The City of Diamond Bar currently has no business-type activities or
enterprise funds.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City of Diamond Bar itself,
but also a legally separate financing authority. Although legally separate, the Diamond
Bar Public Financing Authority is included because the City is financially accountable for
it.
Fund Financial Statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to
maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or
objectives. The City of Diamond Bar, like other state and local governments, uses fund
accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal
requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories:
governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds – Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same
functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial
statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental
fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable
resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in
assessing the near-term financing requirements necessary to finance City programs. A
reconciliation to facilitate a comparison between governmental funds and
governmental activities is located on page 25 of the financial statements.
6
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 177
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide
financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental
funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the
government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the
long-term impacts of the City’s near-term financing decisions. The governmental funds
balance sheet can be found on page 22 of the financial statements, and the
governmental funds statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances
can be found on page 24 of the financial statements.
The City of Diamond Bar adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund. A
budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the general fund to
demonstrate compliance with this budget on page 59.
Proprietary Funds – The type of proprietary funds that the City maintains are internal
service funds that are used to allocate costs internally among the various functions of the
City. The City of Diamond Bar uses these funds to account for its liability insurance costs
and vehicle, building and computer maintenance and replacement costs. Because
these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type functions,
they have been included within governmental activities within the government-wide
financial statements.
Notes to Basic Financial Statements. The notes provide additional information that is
essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund
financial statements.
Other Information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying
notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information concerning
the City’s budgetary control and accounting and expenditures in excess of
appropriations.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
City-wide Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Net Position is intended to measure
an agency’s financial health at the end of the fiscal year. The “net position” is the net of
the agency’s total assets and its total liabilities. At June 30, 2024, the City of Diamond
Bar’s net position (total assets and deferred outflows less total liabilities and deferred
inflows) was $399,708,488 (see Table 1 below).
By far the largest portion of the City’s net position (85%) is its investment in capital assets
(e.g., land, buildings, infrastructure, machinery, equipment, and construction in progress),
net of the related outstanding debt used to acquire those assets. The City of Diamond
Bar uses these capital assets to provide services to its citizens; consequently, these assets
are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets
is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay
this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves
cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. As shown in Table 1 below, the City’s
investment in capital assets (net of related debt) is $331,125,815 which represents a
decrease of approximately $482 thousand from the prior year. This decrease is a result of
7
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 178
additional investments in capital assets of $8.8 million, less an increase in liabilities used to
finance the capital assets in the amount of $1.6 million and $7.7 million in depreciation
expense (see note 5 Capital Assets for more information).
The City’s total liabilities are $27,692,718 which is an increase of $2.8 million due largely to
increases in accounts payable at year-end in the amount of $3.4 million and net pension
liability in the amount of $870 thousand (this amount fluctuates with the annual returns of
the California Public Employees’ Retirement System), offset by various reductions. The
City’s restricted net position increased by $2.6 million from last year. This is mostly
attributable to the unspent portion of restricted revenues received for highways and
streets in non-major special revenue funds. These funds are accumulated to fund large
capital projects and, once appropriated, can take several years to fully expend.
Table 1
CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
Statement of Net Position
The unrestricted portion of the total net position represents those funds the City can use
at its sole discretion. This portion is often looked at when evaluating a city’s financial
health. The unrestricted net position increased by $2.8 million. This is due to several factors,
but mainly the intentional accumulation of reserves for various city purposes pursuant to
the City’s reserve policy.

Governmental Activities and Changes in Net Position. Although the Statement of Net
Position discussed above is an important measure of financial health, it is only at a specific
point in time. A more useful measure is how the City’s financial position is changing over
time. Table 2 below present a summary of the City’s change in net position from the prior
year, and the specific revenue and expenditure activities that caused the change.
Overall, the City ended the year with a $5.0 million increase to its net position, compared
to an increase of $7.1 million the prior year. Many of the reasons leading to these results
have already been discussed, but some of the more notable factors are discussed below.

General Revenues
As show in Table 2 above, total revenues for all governmental activities were $44,954,618.
This is approximately $460 thousand, or 1%, higher than the prior year. Revenues remained
largely flat and were supported by significant increases
in investment earnings in the amount of $3.9 million as
compared to $860 thousand the prior year, offsetting a
significant reduction of one-time monies in the amount of
$3.4 million from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
received the prior year. Revenues from property taxes
and transient occupancy taxes increased by 2.3% and
2.5% respectively, while sales tax revenues dipped slightly
by -2.0%.
10
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 181
As mentioned, revenues from the use of
money & property demonstrated
remarkable improvement, ending the
year with $3.9 million. Total revenue
from the use of money and property
reflects total investment earnings of
$2.8 million plus unrealized gains in the
amount of $1.1 million; such gains would
only be realized were the portfolio liquidated at current market valuations as of
June 30, 2024 (see table above for year-over year changes). It should be noted that while
year-over-year interest earnings increased by approximately $800 thousand, the
$3.0 million net increase in this category is mostly attributable to interest rate volatility
resulting in unrealized gains for year. As interest rates rose the prior FY 2022/23, the City’s
portfolio experienced an unrealized loss. Those higher rates were then locked in as new
investments were purchased, and as rates subsequently dropped there was an
unrealized gain on the portfolio for FY 2023/24, showcasing the responsiveness of the
City’s actively managed investment portfolio to market dynamics.
Governmental Expenses
The FY 2023/24 budget was developed with the intention of expanding programs and
services across the organization, in particular in the General Fund. As such, fiscal year
budgeted and actual expenditures were higher in FY 2023/24 than in FY 2022/23.
Specifically, the revised FY 2023/24 General Fund budget totaled $37.3 million compared
to the FY 2022/23 revised budget of $32.8 million.
In addition to expanding programs and services, the City also increased appropriations
to its Capital Improvement Program in order to improve facilities and maintain key
infrastructure, as well as advance deferred maintenance. In FY 2020/21, the City had to
scale back its capital program due to reduced revenues largely tied to the pandemic.
In FY 2021/22, the City’s annual Capital Improvement Program increased from $3.5 million
to $7.5 million. In FY 2022/23, the Capital Improvement Program increased to $16.1 million.
And in FY 2023/24 the Capital Improvement Program increased to $22.6 million.
While not all of the budget is expended within each year of appropriation, and much of
the funding comes from restricted revenues and grants, the growth nonetheless helps
explain the increases in the overall spending that occurred generally throughout all
categories, most notably public works expenditures which totaled $14.6 million as
compared to $12.6 million the prior year.

7.1.a

City Reserves
In 2011 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2011-26 establishing policies related to
fund balance and reserves. These policies were amended in August of 2019 with the
adoption of Resolution No. 2019-36. In general, reserves are intended to serve a variety
of goals and purposes. One of the key reserves set forth in the City’s reserve policies is for
emergencies, such as natural disasters (earthquakes, flooding, wildfires, etc.), or
unexpected events and circumstances that impact the City’s finances. The recent global
pandemic is an excellent example of this. Another purpose of reserves is to set aside funds
for the replacement of equipment, vehicles, facilities, and other capital needs. The
accumulation of such funds over time minimizes the financial burden and impacts of
funding these types of capital items, which often are very expensive, in a single year.
The degree to which a city has set aside reserves for the purposes noted above is an
important measure of a city’s financial health. To that end, the City’s reserve policies
establish the following reserves:
1. Contingency Reserve – No less than 25% of the adopted budget General Fund
expenditures to provide for economic uncertainties, local emergencies or
disasters, and other financial hardships or downturns in the local economy,
including unforeseen operating or capital needs and cash flow requirements.
12
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 183
2. Other Post-Employment Benefit (OPEB) Reserve Fund – To cover the projected cost
of future retiree benefits, the City will maintain a reserve so that the combined
amount of the reserve and funds held in an OPEB trust are no less than 80% of the
total OPEB liability based on the most recent actuarial valuation.
3. Building Facility and Maintenance Fund – The City will make annual contributions
to this fund from the General Fund of no less than $100,000 to provide for the future
replacement of systems and equipment at City Hall, the Diamond Bar Center, and
other City buildings and facilities. In addition, the City will transfer 40% of the
General Fund year-end surplus after funding the other reserves described in this
section.
4. Vehicle Maintenance and Replacement Fund – To provide funding for the timely
replacement of vehicles and related equipment with an individual cost of $10,000
or more, the City will annually make a contribution from its General Fund to the
Vehicle Maintenance and Replacement Fund equal to its estimated operating
costs plus depreciation net of any interest earnings and proceeds from the sale of
assets.
5. Technology Reserve Fund – The City will maintain a technology reserve fund to
accumulate funds for the replacement of essential technology systems and
equipment. The annual contribution from the General Fund will be no less than
$100,000.
6. Park Development Fund – This fund provides for the development and
enhancement of the City’s parks and facilities. The City will transfer 40% of the
General Fund year-end surplus after funding the other reserves described in this
section.
The aforementioned reserves with amounts are listed below in Table 3 along with other
highlighted reserves.

Changes in Key Reserves
The most striking thing to note from Table 3 above is that total reserves for these funds
increased by $1,709,584 (or 4.3%) to a total of $41,289,564. It is important to note that all
of these individual reserves ultimately derive from the General Fund, either from the
allocation of year-end surpluses or annual contributions pursuant to the reserve policies
summarized earlier.
FUND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As noted earlier the City of Diamond Bar uses fund accounting to ensure and
demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. These are presented
starting on page 23 of the financial statements.
Governmental funds - The focus of the City of Diamond Bar’s governmental funds is to
provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable
resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In
particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a city’s net
resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.

At June 30, 2024, the City of Diamond Bar’s governmental funds reported combined
ending fund balances of $65,965,883, an increase of $2.8 million in comparison with the
prior year. Of this amount, $21,259,227, or 32.2%, constitutes unassigned fund balances
which are available for spending at the government’s discretion. The remainder of the
fund balances are either restricted for particular purposes ($31,881,157), committed to
contingencies per City policy ($8,217,405), or assigned to a specific purpose ($4,608,094).
The balance sheet for governmental funds is presented on page 22 of the financial
statements.
The General Fund, which is included as a governmental fund, is the main operating fund
of the City. It is where most traditional services associated with local government,
including public safety, recreation, development services, economic development, and
public works. The services are funded primarily from unrestricted tax revenues, such as
taxes and charges for services. At the end of the 2023/24 fiscal year, the unassigned fund
balance of the General Fund was $21,674,550, while the total fund balance was
$34,500,049; this represents a decrease of -$100,547 in total fund balance from last year
as opposed to a planned budgetary deficit of -$6.6 million. The factors leading to the
decrease are largely the same as that of the governmental activities, and can be
explained by flat revenues supported by increases to investment earnings, offset by with
slight increases in operational expenses, mainly those related to public safety, and
increased contributions to the City’s Capital Improvement Program in the amount of
$1.3 million as compared to $1.0 million the prior year (see Statement of Revenues,
Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances on page 24 for more information). A
budget-to-actuals comparison for the General Fund is available within the Required
Supplementary Information found on page 59.
As a measure of the General Fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both
unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned
fund balance of $21.7 million represents 65% of total General Fund expenditures,
including transfers out, while total fund balance of $34.5 million represents 104% of the
same amount.
The Traffic Improvement Fund is used to account for funds which have been received
from development projects and designated by the City Council for traffic mitigation
projects. Total revenues for FY 2023/24 were $214,439 and there were no expenditures. As
a result, the ending fund balance for the Traffic Improvement Fund increased by
$214,439.
The Capital Improvement Fund is used to account for major capital projects included in
the annual Capital Improvement Program. Projects are funded by multiple funding
sources including grants, restricted revenues, and the general fund. Total expenditures
for FY 2023/24 were $8,146,443. Total revenues and transfers-in were $8,216,426. As a
result, the ending fund balance for the Capital Improvement fund increased by $69,983.

CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital assets - The City of Diamond Bar’s investment in capital assets for its
governmental activities as of June 30, 2024 amounts to $340,729,351 (net of accumulated
depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, right of way, buildings and
improvements, furniture and fixtures, vehicles and equipment, infrastructure and
construction in progress.
Table 4
CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
Capital Assets (net of depreciation)
The City’s capital assets increased in value by $1.1 million during FY 2023/24. This increase
was due to $8.8 million in new assets, mostly attributed to construction in progress, offset
by $7.7 million in depreciation expense.
Construction in progress at the end of the year included projects in various stages of
design or construction. Virtually all of the $5.2 million of construction in progress relates to
streets improvement projects, including both residential and arterial roadways.
See note 5 Capital Assets for more information.
Long-term debt – At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Diamond Bar’s total
long-term debt totaled $6,380,321, which includes outstanding bonds payable and
accrued compensated absences as shown in Table 5 below.

CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
Outstanding Long-Term Debt
At June 30, 2024
In June 2021 the City issued the 2021 Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds to refinance the
2002 Lease Revenue Bonds. The 2002 bonds were originally issued to finance the
construction of a community/senior center (the Diamond Bar Center) and other public
improvements. The refunding, which capitalizes on historically low interest rates, will result
in a savings of $1,736,355 over the remaining life of the bonds.
In addition to the bonds, city employees have accrued leave time (sick and vacation)
totaling $1,045,321 as of June 30, 2024. This liability is primarily paid out as time off or the
use of sick time and to this extent does not result in an increase in costs.
See note 6 Long-Term Liabilities for more information on long-term debt.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET AND RATES
The Adopted FY 2024/25 Budget incorporates a positive outlook and continues to expand
many City programs and services, advance deferred maintenance and capital
improvement projects, and focuses on key initiatives consistent with the City's Long-Term
Financial Stability Report and recently adopted 2024-2027 Strategic Plan. The adopted
Capital Improvement Program totals $8.2 million in new projects for FY 2024/25 and
includes many projects that were in the design phase in FY 2023/24 which will now move
to the construction phase in FY 2024/25. The FY 2024/25 Adopted Budget also includes
the use of General Fund monies in the amount of $150 thousand for capital
improvements, and has a planned use of unassigned reserves in the amount of
$145 thousand to fund one-time projects and programs.
Similarly to FY 2023/24, the revenue outlook for FY 2024/25 is reasonably optimistic, with
growth in key General Fund revenues—including property taxes and sales taxes— and
other taxes expected to be moderate and in line with historic and pre-pandemic growth
rates. The Federal Reserve is anticipated to continue cuts to interest rates in early 2025
due to an anticipated slowdown in GDP growth for 2024 compared to 2023, which could
positively impact investment holdings.

7.1.a
Packet Pg. 188
The continued growth in FY 2024/25 in property tax and sales tax revenues, coupled with
prudent investments and fiscal policies, will strengthen the City’s financial position in the
year ahead. For these reasons the City continues to stand as a beacon of economic
strength in our region. It is management’s belief that the detailed financial statements
that follow reflect this collective dedication to the ongoing well-being and prosperity of
the Diamond Bar community.

Total premiums (966,820)
Net position of governmental activities 399,708,488$
Long-term liabilities that are not due and payable in the current period, and therefore, are not
reported in the funds.
Governmental funds report the effect of premiums when debt is first issued, whereas, these
amounts are deferred and amortized in the Statement of Activities.
CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA
Capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation/amortization, used in governmental activities
are not financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the funds.
Differences between expected and actual experiences, assumption changes and net differences
between projected and actual earnings, and contributions subsequent to the measurement date
for the postretirement benefits (pension and OPEB) are recognized as deferred outflows of
resources and deferred inflows of resources on the Statement of Net Position.
Other long-term assets that are not available to pay for current period expenditures and,
therefore, are either labeled unavailable or not reported in the funds.
Internal service funds provide services to other funds on a cost-reimbursement basis. The
assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources of the
internal service funds are included in governmental activities in the Statement of Activities.

Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the use of current financial
resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds.
CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA
Governmental funds report capital outlays are expenditures. However, in the Statement of
Activities, the cost of these assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as
depreciation/amortization expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded
depreciation/amortization expense in the current period.
Revenues in the Statement of Activities that do not provide current financial resources are not
reported as revenues in the funds.
Bond and other debt proceeds provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but
issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the Statement of Net Position. Repayment of bond
and other debt principal is an expenditure in the governmental funds, but repayment reduces
long-term liabilities in the Statement of Net Position. Also, governmental funds report the effect
of premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are
deferred and amortized in the Statement of Activities.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Description of Reporting Entity
The City of Diamond Bar (the City) was incorporated April 18, 1989, as a "General Law” City governed by an elected
five-member city council. As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
these financial statements present the City of Diamond Bar (the primary government) and its component units. The
component units discussed below are included in the City's reporting entity because of the significance of their
operational or financial relationship with the City. These entities are legally separate from each other. However, the
City of Diamond Bar's elected officials have a continuing full or partial accountability for fiscal matters of the other
entities. The financial reporting entity consists of: (1) the City (2) organizations for which the City is financially
accountable; and, (3) organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such
that exclusion would cause the City's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete.
An organization is fiscally dependent on the primary government if it is unable to adopt its budget, levy taxes or set
rates or charges, or issue bonded debt without approval by the primary government. In a blended presentation, a
component unit’s balances and transactions are reported in a manner similar to the balances and transactions of
the City. Component units are presented on a blended basis when the component unit’s governing body is
substantially the same as the City's or when the component unit provides services almost entirely to the City.
Blended Component Units
The Diamond Bar Public Financing Authority (the Authority) was formed on November 19, 2002. The purpose of
the Authority is to issue debt to finance public improvements and other capital purchases for the City and Agency.
The activity of the Authority is reported in debt service and capital projects funds. Separate financial statements are
not prepared for this blended component unit.
B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of changes in net
position) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the City. For the most part, the effect of interfund
activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes
and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant
extent on fees and charges for support. The City has no business-type activities.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment
are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or
segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit
from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are
restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other
items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, even
though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds
are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation
The basic financial statements of the City are composed of the following:
x Government-wide financial statements.
x Fund financial statements.
x Notes to basic financial statements.

CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The government-wide financial statements, proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements are reported
using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Under the economic
resources measurement focus, all assets and liabilities (current and long-term) are reported. Under the accrual
basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred,
regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the fiscal year, which
the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements, and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all
the eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and
expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a
proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City's internal service funds
are charges to departments for services. Operating expenses for the proprietary funds include the cost of services,
administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition
are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and
the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the current financial resources measurement focus, generally only
current assets and liabilities are reported in the governmental funds. Governmental fund operating statements
present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses)
in net current assets. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized as soon as they are
both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current
period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers
revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal year. Expenditures
generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on long-term liabilities, claims
and judgments, and compensated absences which are recognized as expenditures only when payment is due.
Property taxes, taxpayer-assessed taxes, such as sales taxes, gas taxes, and transient occupancy taxes, and
interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and have been
recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Only the portion of special assessments receivable due within
the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period to the extent
normally collected within the availability period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and
available only when cash is received by the City.
The accounts of the City are organized and operated on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate
accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts, established for the purpose of carrying on specific activities
or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions or limitations.
As a general rule, the effect of Interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements.
Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the government’s proprietary funds functions and various other
functions of the government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues
reported for the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services or
privileges provided, 2) operating contributions and grants, and 3) capital contributions and grants, including special
assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues.
Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are combined in a fund, expenses are considered to be paid first
from restricted resources, and then from unrestricted resources.

D. Fund Classifications
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City and is used to account for all revenues and expenditures
of the City not legally restricted as to use. A broad range of municipal activities are provided through this fund
including City Manager, City Attorney, Finance, City Clerk, Public Works, Building and Safety, and Parks and
Recreation.
The Traffic Improvement Fund is used to account for funds which have been received from development projects
and designated by the City Council for traffic mitigation projects.
The Capital Improvement Project Fund is used to account for improvements of construction of capital facilities.
The City's fund structure also includes the following fund types:
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally restricted
or committed to expenditures for specified purposes.
Capital Projects Funds are used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted, committed, or
assigned to expenditure for capital outlays, including the acquisition or construction of capital facilities and
other capital assets.
Debt Service Fund are used to account for the receipt of revenues and payments of debt service related to
outstanding bonds.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Internal Service Funds have been established to finance and account for goods and services provided by one City
department to other City departments or agencies. These activities include self-insurance, equipment, building
maintenance and computer maintenance.
E. Investments
For financial reporting purposes, investments are stated at fair value.
Changes in fair value that occur during a fiscal year are recognized as investment income reported for that fiscal
year. Investment income includes interest earnings, changes in fair value, and any gains or losses realized upon
the liquidation or sale of investments.
The City pools cash and investments of all funds, except for assets held by fiscal agents. Each fund’s share in this
pool is displayed in the accompanying financial statements as cash and investments. Investment income earned
by the pooled investments is allocated to the various funds based on each fund's average cash and investment
balances.
F. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid
investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash or so near their maturity (an original maturity
date of three months or less from the date of purchase) that they present insignificant risk of changes in value
because of changes in interest rates. Cash and cash equivalents also represent the proprietary funds' share in the
cash and investment pool of the City. All cash and investments of the proprietary (internal service) funds are pooled
with the City's pooled cash and investments and are therefore considered cash equivalents for purposes of the
statement of cash flows.

G. Prepaid Costs
Prepaid costs are accounted for on the consumption method. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable
to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial
statements.
H. Capital Assets
Capital assets (including infrastructure) are recorded at cost where historical records are available and at an
estimated original cost where no historical records exist. Contributed capital assets are valued at acquisition value
at the date of contribution. Capital asset purchases (other than infrastructure) in excess of $5,000 are capitalized if
they have an expected useful life of three years or more. Donated capital assets, donated works of art and similar
items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are recorded at acquisition value at the
date of donation.
Capital assets include additions to public domain (infrastructure), certain improvements including roads, streets,
sidewalks, medians and storm drains within the City.
Capital assets used in operations are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method in
the Government-wide and Proprietary Fund Financial Statements. Depreciation is charged as an expense against
operations and accumulated depreciation is reported on the respective balance sheet.
The lives used for depreciation purposes of each capital asset class are:
Buildings and improvements 50 years
Furniture and fixtures 7 years
Vehicles 5 years
Infrastructure 10 - 50 years
Equipment 3 years
Intangible Assets are capitalized at cost related to the enterprise resource management system. Amortization has
been provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 10 years.
I. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred
outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a
consumption of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources
(expense/ expenditure) until then. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category. It is deferred
outflows relating to the net pension obligation and net OPEB obligation reported in the government-wide statement
of net position. These outflows are the results of contributions made after the measurement period, adjustments
due to difference in proportions, and the difference between actual contributions made and the proportionate share
of the risk pool’s total contributions, differences between expected and actual experiences, net differences between
projected and actual experiences on plan investments, and change in assumptions.

For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred
inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an
acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and thus will not be recognized as an inflow of resources
(revenue) until that time. The government has three items which arises under the modified accrual basis of
accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly, one item, unavailable revenue, is reported only
in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from two sources:
taxes and grant revenues. These amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that
the amounts become available. In addition, the government has items that qualify for reporting in this category
which relate to deferred inflows relating to the net pension and net OPEB obligations reported in the
government-wide statement of net position. These inflows are the result of the net difference between projected
and actual earnings on plan investments, changes in employer’s proportion, difference between the employer’s
contributions and the employer’s proportionate share of contributions, adjustments due to difference in proportions,
differences between expected and actual experiences, and change in assumptions. Lastly, leases related items for
the amount of the lease receivable plus any lease payments related to future periods, less any lease incentives
paid to, or on behalf of, the lessee at or before the commencement of the lease term.
J. Net Position Flow Assumption
Sometimes the government will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bond or
grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted – net position
and unrestricted – net position in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, a flow assumption
must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the government’s policy to
consider restricted – net position to have been depleted before unrestricted – net position is applied.
K. Fund Balance Flow Assumptions
Sometimes the government will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and unrestricted resources
(the total of committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance). In order to calculate the amounts to report as
restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance in the governmental fund financial statements a flow
assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the
government’s policy to consider restricted fund balance to have been depleted before using any of the components
of unrestricted fund balance. Further, when the components of unrestricted fund balance can be used for the same
purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is
applied last.
L. Compensated Absences
Vacation and sick leave time begin to accumulate as of the first day of employment to a maximum of 360 hours and
480 hours, respectively. Employees who accumulate sick leave in excess of 200 hours may be compensated for
the excess up to 80 hours annually at one half the employees current wage rate.
A liability is recorded for unused vacation and similar compensatory leave balances since the employees'
entitlement to these balances are attributable to services already rendered and it is probable that virtually all of
these balances will be liquidated by either paid time off or payments upon termination or retirement.
A liability is recorded for unused sick leave balances only to the extent that it’s probable that the unused balances
will result in termination payments. This is estimated by including in the liability the unused balances of employees
currently entitled to receive termination payments, as well as those who are expected to become eligible to receive
termination benefits as a result of continuing their employment with the City.
If an employee retires, resigns, or terminates in good standing with a minimum of five years of service, the employee
is entitled to receive 100% of unused sick leave at one half the employees current wage rate. Compensated
absences will be reported in government funds only if they have matured, such as upon retirement.

M. Pension Plan
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to pensions,
and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position and additions to/deductions from the fiduciary net
position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the CalPERS Financial Office. For this
purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when currently due and
payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. CalPERS audited financial
statements are publicly available reports that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under Forms and Publications.
Net Pension liability is expected to be paid in future years from future resources, typically liquidated from the
General Fund.
N. Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources
related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s plan (OPEB Plan),
the assets of which are held by California Employers’ Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT), and additions to/deductions
from the OPEB Plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined by an independent actuary. For this purpose,
benefit payments are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments
are reported at fair value. Net OPEB liability is expected to be paid in future years from future resources, typically
liquidated from the General Fund.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that the reported results must pertain to liability and asset
information within certain defined timeframes. For this report, the following timeframes are used:
Valuation Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Date June 30, 2024
Measurement Period July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024
O. Recognition of Deferred Outflows and Deferred Inflows of Resources
Gains and losses related to changes in total OPEB or Pension liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in
OPEB or Pension expense systematically over time. Amounts are first recognized in OPEB or Pension expense for
the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows
of resources related to OPEB or Pension and are to be recognized in future OPEB or Pension expense.
The recognition period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss:
Net difference between projected and actual 5 years
earnings on plan investments
All other amounts Expected average remaining service lifetime (EARSL)
P. Property Taxes
Under California law, property taxes are assessed and collected by the counties up to 1% of assessed value, plus
other increases approved by the voters. The property taxes go into a pool, and are then allocated to the cities based
on complex formulas. Accordingly, the City accrues only those taxes which are received from the County within
60 days after year end.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Property taxes are assessed and collected each fiscal year according to the following property tax calendar:
Lien date January 1
Levy date July 1
Due dates November 1 - 1st installment
February 1 - 2nd installment
Collection dates December 10 - 1st installment
April 10 - 2nd installment
Delinquent dates December 11 - 1st installment
April 11 - 2nd installment
Q. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. Net OPEB liability is expected to be paid in future years from future
resources, typically liquidated from the General Fund.
R. Fund Equity
In the fund financial statements, government funds report the following fund balance classification:
x Nonspendable include amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form or
(b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
x Restricted include amounts that are constrained on the use of resources by either (a) external creditors,
grantors, contributors, or laws of regulations of other governments or (b) by law through constitutional provisions
or enabling legislation.
x Committed include amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by
formal action of the government’s highest authority, City Council. The formal action that is required to be taken
to establish, modify, or rescind a fund balance commitment is a resolution.
x Assigned include amounts that are constrained by the government’s intent to be used for specific purposes, but
are neither restricted nor committed. The Director of Finance is authorized to assign amounts to a specific
purpose, which was established by the governing body in resolution.
x Unassigned include the residual amounts that have not been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific
purposes. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive fund unassigned fund balance amount. In
other governmental funds it is not appropriate to report a positive unassigned fund balance amount.
However, in governmental funds other than the general fund, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed
the amounts that are restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative
unassigned fund balance in that fund.
An individual governmental fund could include nonspendable resources and amounts that are restricted or
unrestricted (committed, assigned, or unassigned) or any combination of those classifications. Restricted amounts
are to be considered spent when an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted
fund balance is available and committed, assigned, then unassigned amounts are considered to have been spent
when an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of those unrestricted fund balance
classifications can be used.

Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment.
Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in interest
rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of
shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio
is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed
for operations.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City's investments (including investments held by bond
trustee) to interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City's
investments by maturity:
Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the
investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.
Presented below is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code, the City's
investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating, as reported by Moody’s, as of year-end for each

Fair Value Hierarchy
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted
accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset.
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable
inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.”
The City has the following recurring fair value measurements as of June 30, 2024:
Local Agency Investment Funds classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using specified fair value
factors. Federal Agency Securities classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using institutional bond
quotes.
Disclosures Relating to Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a
government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the
possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of
the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its
investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and
the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial
credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision for deposits: The California Government
Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging
securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the
governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the
total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure City deposits
by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits. The City does
not accept 150% of the secured public totals. At June 30, 2024, the City deposits (bank balances) were insured by
the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 and the remaining balances were collateralized under
California Law. The cash and investments held by Bond Trustee are uninsured and uncollateralized.

NOTE 7: LIABILITY, PROPERTY AND WORKERS’ COMPENSATION PROTECTION
The City of Diamond Bar is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (Authority). The Authority
is composed of 126 California public entities and is organized under a joint powers agreement pursuant to California
Government Code §6500 et seq. The purpose of the Authority is to arrange and administer programs for the pooling
of self-insured losses, to purchase excess insurance or reinsurance, and to arrange for group purchased insurance
for property and other lines of coverage. The California JPIA began covering claims of its members in 1978. Each
member government has an elected official as its representative on the Board of Directors. The Board operates
through a nine-member Executive Committee.
A. Self-Insurance Programs of the Authority
Each member pays an annual contribution at the beginning of the coverage period. A retrospective adjustment is
then conducted annually thereafter, for coverage years 2012-13 and prior. Coverage years 2013-14 and forward
are not subject to routine annual retrospective adjustment. The total funding requirement for primary self-insurance
programs is based on an actuarial analysis. Costs are allocated to individual agencies based on payroll and claims
history, relative to other members of the risk-sharing pool.
Primary Liability Program
Claims are pooled separately between police and general government exposures. (1) The payroll of each member
is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each member,
which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within the formula. (2) The first
layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $100,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the
pool’s total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from
$100,000 to $500,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within
the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $500,000 to $50 million, are distributed based on the outcome of cost
allocation within the first and second loss layers.
The overall coverage limit for each member, including all layers of coverage, is $50 million per
occurrence. Subsidence losses also have a $50 million per occurrence limit. The coverage structure is composed
of a combination of pooled self-insurance, reinsurance, and excess insurance. Additional information concerning
the coverage structure is available on the Authority’s website: https://cjpia.org/coverage/risk-sharing-pools/.
Primary Workers’ Compensation Program
Claims are pooled separately between public safety (police and fire) and general government exposures.
(1) The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is
determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within
the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $75,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated
as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes
incurred costs from $75,000 to $200,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total
incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $200,000 to statutory limits are distributed based on
the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers.
For 2023-24 the Authority’s pooled retention is $1 million per occurrence, with reinsurance to statutory limits under
California Workers’ Compensation Law. Employer’s Liability losses are pooled among members to
$1 million. Coverage from $1 million to $5 million is purchased through reinsurance policies, and Employer’s
Liability losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled among members.
B. Purchased Insurance
Pollution Legal Liability Insurance
The City of Diamond Bar participates in the pollution legal liability insurance program which is available through the
Authority. The policy covers sudden and gradual pollution of scheduled property, streets, and storm drains owned
by the City of Diamond Bar. Coverage is on a claims-made basis. There is a $250,000 deductible. The Authority
has an aggregate limit of $20 million.

NOTE 8: PENSIONS
A. Rate Plan Description
All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing
Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plan (Plan) administered by the California Public Employees’
Retirement System (CalPERS.) The Plan consists of individual rate plans (benefit tiers) within a miscellaneous risk
pool (all other.) Plan assets may be used to pay benefits for any employer rate plan of the miscellaneous pools.
Accordingly, rate plans miscellaneous pools are not separate plans under GASB Statement No. 68. Individual
employers may sponsor more than one rate plan in the risk pools. The City sponsors two rate plans. Benefit
provisions under the Plan are established by State statute and Local Government resolution. CalPERS issues
publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plan regarding benefit provisions, assumptions
and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS website.
B. Benefits Provided
CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits
to rate plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited
service, equal to one year of full-time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at
age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 10 years of
service. The death benefit is one of the following: The Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit or the Lump Sum

C. Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) requires that the employer
contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective
on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total rate plan contributions are determined through the
CalPERS’ annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is based on the estimated amount
necessary to pay the Plan’s allocated share of the risk pool’s costs of benefits earned by employees during the
year, and any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the
actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
The City’s contributions to the Plan for the year ended June 30, 2024, were $1,230,051.
D. Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense and Deferred Outflows and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related
to Pensions
As of June 30, 2024, the City reported a net pension liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability of
the Plan of $8,772,989 and is expected to be paid in future years from future resources, typically liquidated from
the General Fund.
The City’s net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the proportionate share of thenet pension liability. The
net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of June 30, 2023, and the total pension liability for the Plan used to
calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022, rolled forward to
June 30, 2023, using standard update procedures. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on a
projection of the City’s long-term share of contributions to Plan relative to the projected contributions of all
participating employers, actuarially determined. The City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability for each
Rate Plan as of June 30, 2022 and 2023, was as follows:
Miscellaneous
Proportion - June 30, 2023 (measured June 30, 2022)0.0684%

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
The collective total pension liability for the June 30, 2023 measurement period was determined by an
actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022, with update procedures used to roll forward the total pension liability to
June 30, 2023. The collective total pension liability was based on the following assumptions:
1 The mortality table was used developed based on CalPERS-specific data. The table includes 15 years of mortality
improvements using Society of Actuaries Scale 80% of scale MP 2020. For more details on this table, please refer
to the December 2021 experience study report (based on CalPERS demographic date from 2010 to 2019) that can
be found on the CalPERS website.
All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2022 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial
experience study for the period from 2010 to 2019, including updates to salary increase, mortality and retirement
rates. The Experience Study report can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under Forms and Publications.
F. Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for PERF C was 6.90%. The projection of cash flows
used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current
member contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates,
actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available
to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of
return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension
liability.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method
in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation)
are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term
return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns and forecasted
information of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the
short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11+ years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected
nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The
Investment rate of return 6.90%
Inflation 2.30%
Salary increases Varies by Entry Age and Service

NOTE 8: PENSIONS (CONTINUED)
expected rate of return was set by calculating the rounded single equivalent expected return that arrived at the
same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns.
The expected rate of return was then set equal to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to
account for assumed administrative expenses.
The table below reflects long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated
using the capital assumptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation.

F. Actuarial assumptions
The total OPEB liability was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included
in the measurement, unless otherwise specified:
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Level Percent of Pay Cost Method
Actuarial Assumptions
Discount Rate 5.75%
Salary increases 2.75%
Inflation rate 2.50%
Investment rate of return 5.75%, net of OPEB plan investment expense
Healthcare cost trend rate 4.00%
Pre-retirement mortality rates were based on the RP-2014 Employee Mortality Table for Males or Females, as
appropriate, without projection. Post-retirement mortality rates were based on the RP-2014 Health Annuitant
Mortality Table for Males or Females, as appropriate, without projection.
Retirement and termination assumptions used were based on a review of plan experience and the actuary’s best
estimate of future plan experience.
G. Discount rate
The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 5.75%. The projection of cash flows used to
determine the discount rate assumed that the City contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially
determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB plan’s fiduciary net position was projected
to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term
expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to
determine the total OPEB liability.

NOTE 12: TRES HERMANOS CONSERVATION AUTHORITY JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY
The Tres Hermanos Conservation Authority (Authority) is a joint powers agency created by a joint powers
agreement between the cities of Chino Hills and Diamond Bar, California, dated January 19, 1999. It was created
pursuant to Articles 1 through 4 of Chapter 5, Division 7, Title 1 of the Government Code of the State of California,
in accordance with the provisions of the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1985. The purpose of the Authority
is to create a public entity to coordinate the overall development and conservation of a large undeveloped area of
real property known as the Tres Hermanos Ranch, by preparing studies, plans, environmental reviews and similar
information and by making recommendations to its members to take such actions including, but not limited to,
acquisition and eminent domain as are necessary to implement its recommendations.
On February 6, 2019, the Authority amended and restated its agreement with the City of Industry pursuant to a
Settlement Agreement. The City of Industry purchased the Tres Hermanos Ranch from the Successor Agency to
Industry’s Urban Development Agency. The City of Chino Hills and Diamond Bar contributed 10% of the purchase
of the land. With the new agreement each City will contribute approximately $70,000 each year for ranch expenses
and maintenance costs. The Board shall consist of seven voting directors and one alternate from each City, actions
taken require at least four approval. Three must come from the City of Industry, two from City of Chino Hills and two
from City of Diamond Bar.
The Authority is a public entity separate and apart from each of the Cities. The funds of the Authority have not been
included within the scope of the basic financial statements of the Cities because the Authority has its own governing
board that has responsibility over the operations of the Authority.

In 1978, California voters passed Proposition 13 which sets the property tax rate at a 1.00% fixed amount. This 1.00% is shared
by all taxing agencies for which the subject property resides within. In addition to the 1.00% fixed amount, property owners
are charged taxes as a percentage of assessed property values for the payment of any voter approved bonds for
the Pomona Unified School District or Walnut Valley Unified School Districts in Diamond Bar depending on which school
district the property is located in.
Overlapping rates are those of local and county governments that apply to property owners within the City. Not all overlapping
rates apply to all city property owners.
RDA rate is based on the largest RDA tax rate area(TRA) and includes only rate(s) from indebtedness adopted prior to 1989
per California State statute. RDA direct and overlapping rates are applied only to the incremental property values.
Total Direct Rate is the weighted average of all individual direct rates applied by the government preparing the statistical
section information.

The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of gross assessed valuation. However,
this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based upon 25% of market value. Effective with the 1981-82 fiscal
year, each parcel is now assessed at 100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The
computations shown above reflect a conversion of assessed valuation data for each fiscal year from the current full valuation
the 25% level that was in effect at the time that the legal debt margin was enacted by the State of California for local govern-
ment located within the state.

Agenda #: 7.2
Meeting Date: January 21, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Fox, City Manager
TITLE: APPROVAL OF A REAL PROPERTY TRANSFER AGREEMENT AND
ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE DIAMOND BAR LITTLE
LEAGUE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 22601 SUNSET CROSSING
ROAD.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Safe, Sustainable & Healthy Community
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Resolution No. 2025-03, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Diamond Bar approving a Real Property Transfer Agreement and Escrow Instructions
with the Diamond Bar Little League for property located at 22601 Sunset Crossing
Road.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Upon approval of the Resolution and associated Real Property Transfer Agreement and
Escrow Instructions (“Transfer Agreement”) and Facilities Use Agreement, the City
would be responsible for escrow services of approximately $5,000. Upon completion of
the transfer, the City would be responsible for maintenance costs of $750,000 to
$1,000,000 to bring the existing fields into playable condition. Annual maintenance
costs thereafter are expected to range from $100,000 -$150,000.
Future design and construction costs for a full renovation of the property are unknown at
this time, but are expected to exceed $20,000,000 depending on design features.
Future annual maintenance costs are unknown at this time and are also dependent
upon design features.
BACKGROUND:
For more than 50 years, Diamond Bar PONY/Little League (“PONY”) has operated a
volunteer-driven non-profit youth baseball league for local participants. At its peak,
PONY served an estimated 1,600 participants across all age levels. As local
7.2
Packet Pg. 309
preferences and demographics have changed and competing youth sports options in
the area have increased, PONY participation levels have decreased significantly. In
2023 data submitted to the City by PONY, total participation was between 186 (96
residents) in the spring season and 135 (56 residents) in the fall season. 2024
participation fell to approximately 110 participants.
Since 1969, PONY has hosted games and practices at the league -owned Stevens Field
facility, located at 22601 Sunset Crossing Road in Diamond Bar (“PONY property”). The
PONY property is approximately 10.23 acres and features four unlit baseball fields (one
of which is abandoned/unmaintained), batting cages, seating areas, and a number of
outbuildings. The site is located directly across the street from the YMCA Early Learning
facility and immediately adjacent to a City-owned undeveloped park site. The property’s
deed restricts the property to be used “for the benefit of the people of the community of
Diamond Bar”.
Declining enrollment over a number of years has made it fiscally unsustainable for
PONY to maintain the Stevens Field property. In early 2024, unpaid tax assessments
led the Stevens Field property to be listed on the Los Angeles County Treasurer and
Tax Collector’s list of properties that are tax defaulted and subject to the Tax Collector’s
power to sell. This list is first provided to public agencies for review to determine if any
are suitable for public purposes, including parks, open space, and recreational uses. If a
public agency identifies a property that could suit such a purpose, it may acquire the
property via a Chapter 8 Agreement Sale.
On February 20, 2024, the City Council took action to acquire the property via the
Chapter 8 process. Following the Council’s action, the PONY Board of Directors
(“Board”) chose to use reserves to extinguish the tax debt and retain ownership of the
property to facilitate the 2024 season for existing participants. Simultaneously, City staff
and the Board began discussions about the future of the program and facility and the
potential for City ownership. On June 3, 2024, the PONY Board submitted a formal offer
to transfer the property to the City at no cost, with the following terms:
1. During the period in which the City owns the facility and operates existing athletic
facilities, PONY requests:
• Priority access to baseball fields during spring, fall, and all-stars seasons.
• The ability to store league equipment on site.
2. In the event the City redevelops the facility into a new park with new athletic
facilities available for public use, PONY requests the following:
• Priority access to baseball fields during the spring, fall, and all-star seasons.
• Access to a snack bar facility
• Access to a community room, with the vision that this amenity be available as
a central meeting location for local non-profit youth sports programs.
• Inclusion of a plaque or history wall highlighting the history of Stevens Field,
the Stevens family, and the leagues players and volunteers.
7.2
Packet Pg. 310
These terms were presented to the City Council, which directed staff and the City
Attorney to proceed with the transfer process, which commences with the approval of
the attached Transfer Agreement Facilities Use Agreement.
The Transfer Agreement is the vehicle in which the ownership of the property would be
transferred in as-is condition to the City at the end of a 60 -day escrow period. At the
close of escrow, the City will receive title insurance in the sum of $920,000 to protect it
against any deficiencies in title, with the exception of current year taxes/assessments.
The Transfer Agreement also establishes standard warranties, representations, and
covenants of PONY regarding the property, attesting that it has no knowledg e of
hazardous substances, spills, and underground tanks, pending litigation or
condemnation proceedings, or any other legal or environmental issue that would
detrimentally impact the city upon transfer.
The Facilities Use Agreement memorializes PONY’s specific requests as listed above
and establishes ongoing terms and conditions for use, remaining in effect so long as the
PONY organization continues to exist in good standing.
At the January 14, 2025 meeting, the Planning Commission adopted a resolution finding
the acquisition of the PONY property to be in conformance with the General Plan.
ANALYSIS:
If acquired, the PONY property provides this City with a large, flat parcel in an otherwise
parkless neighborhood, leveraging the adjacent City -owned 2.78-acre undeveloped
park site to create a 13-acre community park with amenities attractive to residents of all
ages, interests, and activity levels. The development process would commence with the
procurement of a qualified architect to develop design alternatives informed by a
comprehensive public outreach and engagement process that would likely include
surveys, mailings, and public meetings. Conceptual design and outreach costs are
unknown at this time are expected to start at approximately $150,000 .
Funding to construct a new park on the PONY property has not been secured. The City
Council-adopted 2024-25 five-year Capital Improvement Program (“CIP”) includes over
$141,000,000 in various public infrastructure improvements, with approximately
$88,000,000 of this total unfunded. To fund the development of a new park and other
CIP projects, it is likely that the Council will need to reprioritize, delay, or eliminate some
CIP projects and/or consider voter-approved funding mechanisms such as a local
Transactions and Use Tax, the issuance of general obligation bonds, or the
establishment of a facilities or infrastructure district.
In the interim, the property’s current condition is not conducive to City athletic facility
use allocations. If acquired, it will be recommended that the City appropriate funding to
improve playability on three of the four existing fields, remove existing hazards, and
complete basic maintenance of existing trees and landscaping. It is anticipated that the
work to achieve playability will take approximately six months to complete and cost
between $750,000 to $1,000,000. When completed, the newly maintained f ields will
provide additional capacity for a variety of youth and adult sports, including baseball,
softball, soccer, and football, among others, ultimately reducing existing allocation
7.2
Packet Pg. 311
impacts on City facilities like Pantera and Peterson Parks. During the approximately six -
month maintenance period, the City will work with PONY to temporarily allocate City
facilities necessary to facilitate the 2025 season.
The acquisition of the Property is categorically exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section
21080.28 (the acquisition of the Property for preservation of open space or park
purposes). Furthermore, the transfer of ownership of land to create parks is also
exempted from the Act per the Act’s Guidelines, 14 CCR Section 15316.

Agreement shall automatically terminate.

Packet Pg. 322

(a) Transferee has the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement has been duly and validly authorized by Transferee, and no other action by Transferee is
requisite to the valid and binding execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by
Transferee.
(b) There is no pending litigation or, to the best of Transferee’s knowledge, threatened
litigation, which does or will materially and adversely affect Transferee’s ability to consummate this
transaction.
13. Transferee’s Conditions. Transferee’s obligations under this Agreement are expressly made
subject to the following conditions precedent solely for the benefit of Transferee. The Close of
Escrow and Transferee’s obligation to consummate the purchase of Property shall be contingent upon

be conducted by Transferee, in Transferee’s sole and absolute discretion, including without limitation,
any environmental site assessments, investigations, studies and reports, and Transferee’s approval of
the Documents and Reports. Transferee’s approval of any such inspections of the Property shall not
alter or diminish Transferor’s representations or warranties under this Agreement, and Transferor
acknowledges and agrees that Transferee is nonetheless relying on Transferor’s representations and
warranties made herein, unless such representation or warranty is specifically waived in whole or in
part by Transferee in writing.
If any of the foregoing conditions precedent has not been either met to Transferee’s sole and
absolute satisfaction (and has not been expressly waived in writing by Transferee on or prior to the
Closing Date), then this Agreement shall, at the option of Transferee, terminate, in which event,
except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither party shall have any further rights, duties and
obligations hereunder.

obligation to consummate the sale of the Property shall be contingent upon and subject to written

condemnation proceeds actually paid for that portion of the Property taken.
16. Default. In the event of a breach or default under this Agreement by either Transferor or
Transferee, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow
by delivering written notice thereof to the defaulting party and to Escrow Holder, and if Transferee is
the non-defaulting party, Transferee shall have the right to obtain damages, or Transferee may obtain
specific performance. Such termination of the Escrow by a non-defaulting party shall be without
prejudice to the non-defaulting party’s rights and remedies against the defaulting party at law or
equity.
17. No Relocation Assistance. Transferee shall have no obligation to Transferor under the
California Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition statutes and guidelines. Except for
any breach of terms or conditions contained in this Agreement, Transferor waives and forever releases

anyone else acting on Transferee’s behalf, of and from any and all claims, demands, actions or causes
of action, obligations, liabilities, or claims for further compensation, known or unknown, based upon
or relating to the facts or allegations and circumstances arising from Transferee’s acquisition of the
Property. By such release, Transferor expressly waives its rights, if any, under California Civil Code
Section 1542 which provides:
“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT
THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR
SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF
EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM
OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER
SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”
