MEETING DATE: December 6, 2021
PREPARED BY: Darlene Gerdes, Deputy City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the Amendment to the Joint Powers
Agreement of the Western Riverside Council of Governments to make various language
updates.
BACKGROUND: On November 1, 2021 WRCOG staff presented this item to the WRCOG
Executive Committee for approval. The Executive Committee has directed WRCOG staff to
forward the amendments to WRCOG’s member agencies for their approval.
The practices, role, and needs of WRCOG have evolved over the past three decades. The
processes outlined in the formation document (Joint Powers Agreement) and the operational
document (Bylaws) should be updated from time to time in order to capture changes in the
needs, intent, and focus of the Executive Committee.
Earlier this summer, a subcommittee comprised of Vice-Chair Crystal Ruiz, Committee
member Brian Tisdale, Committee member Ben Benoit, and immediate Past Chair Kevin
Bash met to evaluate and propose changes to WRCOG's Joint Powers Agreement. The
group met over a series of months and has completed its work.
A partial list of key changes to the JPA is listed below. For the full scope of changes, please
see the attached red line document (Attachment A). The changes are intended to:
1. Remove references to the membership of the Morongo Band of Mission Indians.
2. Modernize language and processes, including removal of references to use of
member agency employees to perform day-to-day WRCOG Agency business.
3. Completely revise indemnity language to better articulate WRCOG responsibility
to indemnify member agencies.
4. Remove outdated arbitration provision.

Eric Williamson, Public Works Supervisor
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve Resolution 2021-52, a Resolution
of the City of Calimesa taking the following actions:
1. Authorizing the purchase of a replacement lawn mower and;
2. Waiving formal bidding requirements for public advertisement in connection with
this purchase as provided by the City’s Municipal Code.
BACKGROUND: The Public Works Department purchased our current lawn mower in
2014, a year before the 4th Street Park opened in 2015. The current mower has been in
service since 2015. We currently utilize the mower to maintain both City parks and the
public library, as well as weed abatement on many City properties and rights of way.
During the 6 years of service, City of Calimesa has invested a considerable amount of
money to keep the current mower operable. On average, the machine is used at least 8
hours a week, so in its working life, there are almost 2,500 hours of service on the mower.
It is one of the most utilized pieces of equipment in the Public Works Department. The
mower was converted to a propane system by a grant for Clean Air Initiative. Unfortunately,
this system is becoming obsolete. Therefore, staff has only been able to locate 2 certified
mechanics in Riverside County to service and maintain the mower, which is increasingly
expensive and requires ordering of parts and wait time for delivery.
DISCUSSION: Public Works is recommending replacing the mower at this time due to the
upkeep the unit is requiring regularly and the limited ability to receive parts and service.
Staff have researched multiple replacement units and received quotes from 3 different
manufacturers. Staff has examined all fuel type options, including gas, diesel and propane,
extensively researched each manufacturer’s styles and add-ons, focusing on customer
reviews as well as spoken to Sales Associates with each manufacturer to get an
understanding of the specialties of each mower to determine which would be best suited
for our type of work.
Based on all the research completed, staff is recommending the purchase of a Kubota
Diesel Zero-Turn Deck Mower, Model # 1021-3-60. While the diesel fuel system option is
on average 15% more expensive than a comparable gas or propane option, it will save the
Page 54 of 69
City money in the long run as diesel mowers utilize less fuel to operate and will have a
longer useful life, saving in maintenance and replacement cost. Given the upcoming
growth of the City and the additional hours we are expecting to be using the mower, the
diesel option will be the superior option.
The Calimesa Municipal Code (CMC) Section 3.15.130 authorizes the City Manager to
make purchases up to $10,000 if three written bids are obtained. In addition, CMC Section
3.15.110, formal contract procedure, provides, among other requirements, that all
purchases over $10,000 must be made pursuant to a formal bid process wherein there is
a formal published notice soliciting sealed bids. The recommended purchase of
replacement mower would fall into thelatter category. However, CMC Section 3.15.050
provides that:
“The city council may also, by majority vote of its entire membership, dispense
with such bidding and other procedures required by this chapter in any
individual instance upon finding that it would be impracticable, useless or
uneconomical in such instance to follow such procedures, and that the public
welfare would be promoted by dispensing with same.”
Staff is recommending the formal bid process be waived for the purchase of the
replacement mower on Exhibit A to Resolution 2021-52. The reasons for waiver of the
formal bid process are as follows:
a) Purchase of Replacement Mower: Three quotes from retail mower
suppliers were received from local vendors who can supply the riding mower who is
a retail lawn equipment dealer. Inland Kubota, Inc. of Redlands is well-known, locally
available, and reputable, and is able to furnish the mower.
Additional findings to support the waiver of purchasing procedures are as follows:
(1) Retail seller quotes will not differ from formal advertising bids.
(2) Formal bids will not be answered by mower dealers, as their business does not
require formal bidding to obtain sales.
(3) Informal quotes were obtained from three separate dealers for the riding mower.
Public Works staff obtained an estimate from Inland Kubota, Inc. in Redlands, Ca. The
recommendations reflect consideration of price, availability, timing and fit. Exhibit A lists
the recommended item for purchase for which staff is recommending the City Council
waive formal bidding procedures to make this purchase.
Based on these facts, staff recommends that the City Council use its authority contained
in Section 3.15.050 of the Calimesa Municipal Code to find that due to various factors listed
above and vendor reputation,it would be impractical, useless or uneconomical to purchase
the equipment listed on Exhibit A through formal bidding procedures, and that the public
welfare would be promoted by dispensing with the same.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The City Council adopted the 2021-22 Budget, that among other
things, included the Mower Replacement for Public Works in the General Fund in the
amount of $20,500. Based upon the approved 2021-22 Budget document, the City’s
Mower Replacement anticipated purchase price is below what has been budgeted for this
fiscal year at $16,716.82. Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the quote
of $16,716.82 from Inland Kubota, Inc. for the Public Works Department for the Purchase
of a Kubota Diesel Zero-Turn Deck Mower, Model # 1021-3-60.

Purchases of supplies, services and equipment and the sale of personal property shall be by bid
procedures, pursuant to CMC 3.15.110, 3.15.120 and 3.15.160. With the exception of purchases covered
by Article 4 of the State Public Contracts Code, bidding may be dispensed with when an emergency requires

$1,000, or when the commodity is a sole source item which can be obtained from only one vendor. Sole
source items shall include purchases of items where there are restrictions in specifications due to the need
for standardization. The city council may also, by majority vote of its entire membership, dispense with such

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10
SUBJECT: ANNUAL REPORT AND FIVE-YEAR REPORT REGARDING
DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES
MEETING DATE: December 6, 2021
PREPARED BY: Celeste Reid, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this Annual Report
regarding developer impact fees (hereinafter referred to as DIF) and make the findings listed below.
SUMMARY: Government Code Section 66006 requires local agencies to submit annual reports
detailing the status of development impact fees. The annual report must be made available to the
public within 180 days after the last day of the fiscal year and must be presented to the public agency
(City Council) as an informational report.
This report summarizes the following information for each of the development fee programs:
• Description of the type of fee in the account or fund
• The amount of the fee
• Beginning and ending fund balances
• Amount of fees collected, and the interest earned
• Identification of public improvements for which fees were expended
• Identification of any inter-fund transfers or loan made from the fund
• Any refunds made
In addition, to the extent there is an accumulation of fees in any fee category in excess of 5 years (in
other words, current fund balance exceeds the amount of mitigation fees collected over the past 5
years), Government Code Section 66001 (d) requires the local agency to make certain findings.
These are as follows:
• Identify the purpose for which the fees will be spent
• Indicate the fee was appropriately charged by demonstrating a reasonable relationship
between the fee and the purpose for which it was charged
• Identify any other sources and amounts of funding that are necessary to complete
improvements
• Identify the projected timeline for having all projected funding for making the identified
improvements
DISCUSSION: Attached, as Exhibit A, is a DIF status report reflecting activity for the 2020-21
Fiscal Year: As part of that report, a determination is made, by fee category, as to whether there
are mitigation fees remaining unexpended for 5 years or more. As indicated in Exhibit A, there
are 5 categories of mitigation fees with unexpended funds in excess of 5 years; namely Flood
Control/Drainage, Administrative Facilities, Library facilities, Law Enforcement Facilities and
Park Improvements. Please note that in both the Flood Control/Drainage Fund and Traffic
Improvement Fund certain non-mitigation revenue (i.e., grants and other developer
Page 60 of 69
contributions) was excluded from the excess revenue calculation. The required findings in each
fee category are as follows:
Flood Control/Drainage Fees:
The purpose of the City’s Flood Control/Drainage Fees is to construct new flood control facilities
to accommodate storm water from new development to serve the City and its residents. The
relationship between the fee imposed and the purpose for which it is imposed is to mitigate the
impact of new development on the need for flood control facilities that serve new development.
The nexus and proportionality for the fee imposed is provided for in the DIF study that was
prepared at the time the fees were established. The City hereby incorporates the findings from
that study into this report. The sources of funding for this improvement are identified in the
attached DIF status report. The City is currently working on the Calimesa Creek project. The
project was not completed in 2020-21 and will continue into 2021-22. The funding sources
include an EPA grant which concluded in 2019-20, Development Impact Fee revenue and a
Riverside County Flood Control grant. It is anticipated that in the next 24 months, the project
will be completed. The project will require significant DIF funds to be expended during that time
period.
The Flood Control Drainage Fee fund also completed a project within the fiscal year 2020-21 for
the Old Roberts Road Storm drain and pavement failure. This project was completed as of June
30, 2021.
Administrative Facilities Fees:
The purpose of the City’s Administrative Facilities Fees is to construct a City Hall to serve the
residents and business as the City grows due to new developments. The relationship between
the fee imposed and the purpose for which it is imposed is to mitigate the impact of new
development on the need for city administrative offices to serve new development. The nexus
and proportionality for the fee imposed is provided for in the DIF study that was prepared at the
time the fees were established. The City hereby incorporates the findings from that study into
this report. The sources of funding for this improvement are identified in the attached DIF status
report. Several years ago, the City had completed the initial conceptual design of a new Civic
Enrichment Center that would include, among other things, new library and city hall facilities.
The estimated cost of the construction of the facility was $6.4 million. However, these costs
were updated in the most recent DIF study (2017) to include the possibility of a slightly larger
facility and alternative location. In addition, it is now anticipated that a new library and city hall
facilities will be at 2 separate locations, as opposed to the original concept noted above.
Depending on ultimate site location and facility design, the current estimated cost of new city
hall facilities is between $10 million and $16 million. It is anticipated that this improvement will
be constructed in the next 5 to 7 years and during that time the City’s collected Administrative
Facilities Fees would be expended for that purpose.
Library Fees:
The purpose of the City’s Library Facilities Fees is to construct a new library to serve the
residents and business within new developments in the City. The relationship between the fee
imposed and the purpose for which it is imposed is to mitigate the impact of new development
on the need for library services to serve new development. The nexus and proportionality for
the fee imposed is provided for in the DIF study that was prepared at the time the fees were
established. The City hereby incorporates the findings from that study into this report. The
sources of funding for this improvement are identified in the attached DIF status report. Several
years ago, the City had completed the initial conceptual design of a new Civic Enrichment Center
that would include, among other things, new library and city hall facilities. The estimated cost of
Page 61 of 69
the construction of the facility was $6.4 million. However, these costs were updated in the most
recent DIF study to include the possibility of a slightly larger facility and alternative location. In
addition, it is now anticipated that a new library and city hall facilities will be at 2 separate
locations, as opposed to the original concept noted above. Depending on ultimate site location
and facility design, the current estimated cost of a new library facility is between $4 million and
$6 million. During fiscal year 2020-21, City staff developed and presented alternatives for a new
library facility assuming a replacement facility at the current location. The discussions are
preliminary and if the process proceeds, it is anticipated the library may be constructed within 2
to 5 years. The City’s collected Library Facilities Fees would be expended for the purpose of a
construction of a new library.
Law Enforcement Fees:
The purpose of the City’s Law Enforcement Facilities Fees is to construct a new police services
facility in the City to serve the residents and businesses within new developments in the City.
The relationship between the fee imposed and the purpose for which it is imposed is to mitigate
the impact of new development on the need for law enforcement services to serve that new
development. The nexus and proportionality for the fee imposed is provided for in the DIF study
that was prepared at the time the fees were established. The City hereby incorporates the
findings from that study into this report. The sources of funding for this improvement are
identified in the attached DIF status report. The City currently contracts with the County of
Riverside for Sheriff (Police) services. The City has not grown as expected over the last several
years. Any significant growth began in 2018-19. As such, building a facility has been delayed.
It is anticipated that a facility will be built in the next 10 to 15 years and that the City’s Law
Enforcement Facilities Fees will be expended during that period.
Park Improvement Fees:
The current purpose of the City’s Park Improvement Fees is to construct additional park facilities
to serve the City and its residents. The relationship between the fee imposed and the purpose
for which it is imposed is to mitigate the impact of new development on the need for additional
parks to serve that new development. The nexus and proportionality for the fee imposed is
provided for in the DIF study that was prepared at the time the fees were established. The City
hereby incorporates the findings from that study into this report. The sources of funding for this
improvement are identified in the attached DIF status report. The City currently owns 2.31 acres
of undeveloped parkland referred to as 4th Street Park Phase 2. Initial concepts have been
discussed and community input obtained in fiscal year 2021-22 for this property. There remains
considerable process, discussions and approvals required to proceed with development of this
park expansion. To date, the City has accumulated Park Improvement funds of $3,323,286.
Fire Facilities Fees and Street and Traffic Fees:
As noted in the attached DIF status Report, there was not an excess of funds in the Fire Facilities
Fund or the Street and Traffic Improvement Fund. As such, no findings are required to be made.

SUBJECT: UPDATE OF NEW CITY LOGO AND WEBSITE PROJECT
MEETING DATE: December 6, 2021
PREPARED BY: Darlene Gerdes, Deputy City Manager/City Clerk
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that the City Council approve the conceptual
logo and color scheme.
BACKGROUND: At your July 19, 2021 meeting, Council approved the agreement with
CivicEngage(CivicPlus LLC) for redesign of the City’s current website, with the Scope of Work to
include the design of a new City Logo, which will be incorporated into the website design. Staff had
indicated to you at that time that updates would be brought back periodically throughout the project
process.
Staff attended a Project Kickoff meeting with CivicPlus on September 1, 2021, where a project
timeline was established and staff met the project team members. The first part of the project was
the establishment of a new logo. I am happy to say that we have remained on schedule and in fact
we are a little ahead of the schedule, so we are making great progress.
This update is to provide you with the new logo concept that staff has worked with the CivicPlus
design team for the last couple of months. We will need to give them final approval by December 10,
2021 to keep on schedule. Once the logo concept is confirmed the website design process will begin.
The website will be designed around the final approved color scheme and logo and we hope to remain
on schedule with the launch of the new website in early May, 2022.
The logo concept and color scheme are attached for your review.
