TO: FROM: Honorable Mayor Farnam, Members of the City Council Michael Kashiwagi, PE, City Engineer (LAFCO2007-39-1 Annexation 111) SUBJECT: Detachment of a portion of County Service Area (CSA) 103 STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends City Council detach County Service Area 103 (LAFCO 2007- 39-1). BACKGROUND: County Service Area (CSA) 103 provides for street lighting services within the unincorporated areas of Riverside County. As part of the incorporation process, the portion of CSA 103 within the City of Wildomar was detached from the County Service Area. Although detached, the City of Wildomar retained the ability to continue assessing fees and is now responsible for providing street lighting services to those areas. At the time of incorporation, a new area within the City of Wildomar was in the process of being annexed into CSA 103. The new area consists of approximately 20 acres and is associated with Tentative Tract Map (TTM) 29476. The annexation process was completed and became effective on December 5, 2008. On December 30, 2008, the City of Wildomar received a letter from Riverside LAFCO recommending that this new area be detached from CSA 103 since it resides completely within the City of Wildomar and creates awkward service boundaries for the County of Riverside. City of Wildomar staff has reviewed this request and concurs with this recommendation. By directing staff to begin the detachment process, it is anticipated that the detachment process can be complete prior to July 1, 2009. 1 FISCAL IMPACT: As stated in the previous staff report requesting staff direction, Riverside LAFFCO staff has indicated they would support an application fee waiver; therefore there is no cost to the City for the detachment. However, there will be a fee of $800.00 that must be paid to the State Board of Equalization for filing fee. This fee will come from account # 10480 29, of the General Fund, Non- Departmental, Miscellaneous Services ALTERNATIVES: 1. Provide staff with further direction. 2.

As a result, a small portion of County Service Area (CSA) 103 consisting solely of this annexation area, now exists within the City of Wildomar.

BACKGROUND: SAFETEA-LU Adopt Resolution supporting the reauthorization of the Federal Safe Routes to School In2 2005, President Bush signed into law the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). SAFETEA-LU authorized the Federal surface transportation programs and provided $286.5 billion in Federal investment for highway, public transportation, and highway safety programs for the 5-year period of 2005-2009. SAFETEA-LU expires on September 30, 2009. A new multi-year reauthorization is anticipated to be rolled out by Congress in the As non-highway construction spending has grown in recent reauthorization cycles, federal transportation funding has become increasingly important to cities, counties, states and regions in creating alternative transportation networks, bike and pedestrian trails, and other ransporation-related components that provide livable communities. The upcoming reauthorization of the Transportation Act will allow more people access to public lands and continued funding for an array of transportation improvements that work toward transportation mobility, congestion relief, and environmental and energy The reauthorization will potentially re-enact several transportation funding programs including the Federal Safe Routes to School Program (SRTS), which will expire as SAFETEA-LU becomes inactive in 2009 (unless the law is extended). The continuation of the Safe Routes to School Program has direct benefits in providing a funding source summer of 2009, and preliminary work is underway. conservation or preservation. 1 Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 for improvements that provide access and increase safety for school children to and from school. Federal Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Funding Program The Federal Safe Routes to school program began in 2005 under the Federal transportation act, SAFETEA-LU. Congress authorized a total of $612 million in funding to states over five years, beginning with $54 million for fiscal year 2005 and concluding The SRTS funding program is designed to allocate funding for engineering improvements around schools, such as traffic calming measures, new and/or improved street crossings, sidewalks, bike lanes and walkways to create communities that are conducive to walking and biking safely to school. The SRTS Program provides important benefits to kids and their communities, such as improved health, reduced traffic congestion, better air quality, and enhanced neighborhood safety. Across all states, as of December 2008, approximately 90 percent of federal funds from fiscal years 2005 through 2008 have been awarded and more than 4,400 local schools are benefiting from the federal program and are implementing their SRTS programs and with $183 million for fiscal year 2009. initiatives. Supporting Reauthorizing SAFETEA-LU and SRTS program In March 2009, as part of the pending reauthorization of the federal transportation law, Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) endorsed a resolution to support the "Safe Routes To School Program". Inj passing the resolution, the WRCOG Executive Committee also requested that its member jurisdictions and agencies adopt a similar resolution supporting the Safe Routes to School Program and continued funding for its The City of Wildomar staff has submitted an application (to Caltrans) for Safe Routes To School Funding for sidewalk improvements. The proposed project will construct new curb, gutter, and sidewalks on Central Street, Palomar Street, Illinois Street, and George Avenue. This will improve the pedestrian environment for parents and children walking to Wildomar Elementary School and Ronald Reagan Elementary School, and if funded, would provide approximately $400,000 toward the project. Continuation of the program in the transportation law reauthorization will be advantageous for the City. Staff therefore recommends the Council approve the resolution supporting mplementation. reauthorization of the Federal Safe Routes To School Legislation. FISCAL IMPACTS: There are no direct impacts at this time. As stated earlier, the reauthorization of SAFETEA-LU and the reinstatement of the Safe Routes to School Program will allow the City of Wildomar to seek future funding for transportation projects within the vicinity of schools. 2 Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 Submitted by: Michael Kashiwagi Development Services ATTACHMENTS: Resolution Approved by: R Intérim City Manager 3 RESOLUTION NO. 09-19 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WILDOMAR SUPPORTING THE REAUTHORIZATION OF THE FEDERAL SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL (SRTS) LEGISLATION WHEREAS, City Council of the City of Wildomar supports improving pedestrian safety WHEREAS, the "Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act - A Legacy for Users" (SAFETEA-LU) provided for funding to the states for the funding of infrastructure projects on public roads, pedestrian pathways and bike lanes that would WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Wildomar urges legislators and local government agencies to allocate funding for more adult crossing guards, implementation of engineering improvements around schools, such as traffic calming measures, new and/or improved street crossings, sidewalks, bike lanes, and walkways WHEREAS, the SAFETEA-LU will expire on September 30, 2009, unless reauthorized; NOW, THEREFORE, the Wildomar City Council does hereby resolve as follows: through safety programs and infrastructure improvements; and improve the ability of students to walk and bicycle to school; and to create safer routes to school; and The City Council of the City of Wildomar supports reauthorization of the PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Wildomar this 25th day of April, SAFETEA-LU. 2009 by the following vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAIN: Scott Farnam, Mayor PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Wildomar City Council held this 25th day of April, 2009.

CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM Meeting Date: April 8, 2009 April 22, 2009 TO: FROM: Council Members Michael Kashiwagi, Development Services SUBJECT: Consider amending Ordinance 824, adjusting the Western Riverside County Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee ("TUMF") applicable to all developments in the City of Wildomar STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: Hold second reading and adopt an amendment to Ordinance 824 adjusting the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) applicable to all development in the City ofWildomar. BACKGROUND: In2 2002, the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) adopted the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) Program pursuant to California Government Code, Section 66000 et seq., the Mitigation Fee Act. The TUMF Program was created in response to the significant growth of new development in Riverside County. Faced with inadequate funding to improve the regional transportation system to accommodate new development, the member agencies of WRCOG developed the TUMF as a solution. The County of Riverside adopted the TUMF Program on December 10, 2002 and last amended Ordinance 824 On August 27, 2008, the City of Wildomar adopted the County Ordinances, including Ordinance 824 (and its amendments) which authorizes participation in the Western Riverside County Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee Program, hereinafter referred Section 4.C oft the TUMF Ordinance authorizes periodic review and adjustment to the applicable TUMF fees in accordance with any adjustments made by the WRCOG Executive Committee. On February 2, 2009, the WRCOG Executive Committee approved an adjustment of the TUMF in light of recent decreases in the cost of constructing the regional transportation system. This adjustment was based on decreases to the Construction Cost Index ("CCI") which WRCOG has determined to be with Ordinance 824.5 on July 1, 2008. to as the TUMF Ordinance. 1 Meeting Date: April 8, 2009 an accurate reflection of the cost of constructing the regional transportation system The proposed Ordinance amendment to Ordinance 824 incorporates these adjustments into the TUMF fee schedule contained in Section 4.A of Ordinance 824. Overall, the proposed amendment to Ordinance 824 will maintain the integrity of the TUMF Program by ensuring that there is sufficient funding to construct the regional improvements which was identified in the TUMF Nexus Study. necessitated by new development.

TO: FROM: Honorable Mayor Farnam, Members of the City Council Michael Kashiwagi, Development Services SUBJECT: Support Riverside County Transportation Commission's three high priority corridors for the next federal transportation authorization bill. STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Mayor to execute a letter of support to RCTC Government Relations Manager, supporting RCTC's priority corridor projects: Alameda corridor East (railroad grade separations throughout Riverside County), Interstate 215 and Interstate 10. BACKGROUND: Int the coming months, the United States House of Representatives will consider new legislation to authorize the next era of transportation policy and funding. A Riverside County unified voice in Washington gives the County a strategic advantage over other counties in Southern California and other parts of the country. RCTC has appraised the many transportation needs of the region with the standards set by the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. Based on the criteria, the RCTC unanimously adopted three high priority corridors for the next federal transportation authorization bill. The three high priority corridors are: Alameda corridor East (railroad grade separations throughout Riverside County), Interstate 215 Interstate 10. The Commission is fully aware that the needs of Riverside County far exceed the three corridors. In selecting the priority corridors, the Commission emphasized corridors that had a clear federal nexus, regional benefits, and could be delivered within the 6-year timeframe of the proposed legislation. 1 The bill will include language for federal formula programs that will spend billions of infrastructure dollars across the country over the next 6 years. The RCTC is taking a strategic and assertive posture in Washington for the entire region and the County must advocate in unison for programs that give Riverside County their deserved share of funding.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The House Transportation and Infrastructure (T&I) Committee is in the midst of writing language for the next federal transportation authorization bill. The Committee's chairman, Rep. Jim Oberstar (D-MN), has stated that he intends to introduce the bill by May 15. He has further stated that he intends to markup the bill in the T&l Committee in late May and consider the bill on the House floor in June. This timeline began to emerge in early March, shortly following the enactment of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) or "stimulus" bill. Until then, many in Washington, DC, questioned whether ARRA's infrastructure investment would lessen political pressure to pass a new transportation authorization bill in 2009. Instead, it seems to have emboldened Chairs Oberstar and Boxer to move forward with legislation quickly (due to their perceived inadequate infrastructure investment in ARRA). Additionally, mixed- messages regarding the role of earmarks (now dubbed congressionally directed priorities") in the authorization bill have been sent by Congress and the Administration. However, it is now apparent that Congress intends to include Member priority projects in the bill from the outset. 1 Given that the details of the House bill are now being constructed, the T&I Committee has officially asked Members of Congress to submit High Priority Project requests from their respective districts to the T&I Committee. Members have been given until May 8 to submit High Priority Projects. The Commission should soon be receiving calls for projects from the four Members who represent Riverside County. In anticipation of this call, staff has prepared a recommendation tot the Federal Authorization Legislative Ad Hoc Committee for the Commission to sponsor a strategic suite of projects for the authorization bill. Vetting Commission Priority Projects At its August 2008 meeting, this ad hoc committee received recommendations from Commission federal lobbyists and staff regarding criteria for authorization projects. Having received no alternative suggestions from the ad hoc committee at that time, staff continues to recommend that projects sought by the Commission in the next reauthorization shall: Have a clear federal nexus; Be regional in nature; and Be deliverable within the timeframe of the bill (before 2015-16) Furthermore, the ad hoc committee discussed its desire to support corridors for improvement rather than individual projects. A regional corridor approach is consistent with recent policies by Senate and House Appropriations Committees and Senator Feinstein. As the Commission discussed at its 2008 workshop in La Quinta with its three federal lobbyists, staff believes the Commission will benefit from maintaining a strategy that focuses on the highest regional priorities, despite the many requests that will be made by cities for smaller projects. Competition will be fierce for limited dollars; diluting the Commission's support for the multitudinous local projects nominated by cities will detract from a regional message that can set Riverside County apart from others in California and the nation. Congressional Criteria In a letter dated April 2, 2009, Chairman Oberstar, Ranking Member Mica, and key committee members outlined their standards for High Priority Project requests. The letter is an attachment to this item. The basic points are outlined below: For road projects, is the project on the national highway or interstate Can 80% of the total cost of the phase or segment of the project be identified through local, state, or federal sources? (Sources and amounts How likely is construction of the project to begin during the term of the Act? system? must be named). Urgency Item 2 Isthe project explicitly supported by the state or local government agency? Isthe project of national or regional significance? What are the safety, economic development, mobility, and environmenta benefits associated with the completion of the project? What opportunity will the public have to comment on the project? Is the project in the region's long range state and/or federal transportation Members must certify that neither the Member nor his/her spouse has any Members are required to post requests for projects on the Member's website. Projects included in the bill will be posted on the Committee website, with all certifications and justifications provided to the Committee. Given these detailed principles set by the T&l Committee, staff recommends the Commission adopt three major corridors of national and regional significance as High Priority Projects: Alameda Corridor East and Interstates 215 and 10. Within each of these corridors are projects that are currently under development that increase their likelihood of being "shovel ready" within the term of the new improvement plan? financial interest in the project. authorization bill. Alameda Corridor East Grade Separations in Riverside County Congressional Districts: 41-Lewis, 44-Calvert, 45-Bono Mack The Commission has twice adopted a Grade Separation Funding Strategy, a one-of- a-kind document in Southern California that provides a blueprint for delivering the 20 highest-priority grade separations in Riverside County. There are 13 grade separations in this funding strategy that could be deliverable by 2016. The blueprint easily achieves the standards set by the T&I Committee for project justification. The blueprint demonstrates significant local funding commitments to all 13 projects. Grade separations have been a consistent congressional priority dating back to SAFETEA-LU, where Alameda Corridor East was identified as a Project of National and Regional Significance. Sponsoring this corridor as a High Priority Project also follows precedent set by the allocation of the Trade Corridor Improvement Fund (TCIF) from Proposition 1B, which was supported by the entire Southern California region. The Commission has been consistently supportive of grade separations on Alameda Corridor East as a countywide priority. Further, the Commission will continue to seek the creation of a national goods movement funding program that will address the local impacts of international trade. Urgency Item 3 Projects in the Commission's Grade Separation Funding Strategy that are deliverable within the timeframe of the new authorization bill are: Total Cost (million) $ 32.0 Yes $ 17.3 $ 60.0 Yes $ 33.5 Yes $ 32.0 Yes $ 51.2 Yes $ 36.5 Yes $ 40.2 Yes $ 37.4 Yes $ 81.8 Yes $ 30.3 Yes $ 36.8 Yes $ 108.4 Project Lead Agency Corona Coachella County County Riverside Riverside Banning Riverside County County Riverside Riverside County TCIF SAFETEA-LU Auto Center Drive/BNSF Avenue 52/UP Avenue56/Airport Boulevard/UP Avenue 66/UP lowa Avenue/BNSF & UP Magnolia Avenue/UP Sunset Avenue/UP 3rd Street/BNSF & UP Clay Street/UP Magnolia Avenue/BNSF Riverside Avenue/UP Streeter Avenue/UP Jurupa Road/UP Yes Yes Yes Yes TOTAL $ 597.4 The Commission would seek a federal share of approximately $365 million for these Alameda Corridor East projects. If approved by the ad hoc committee, staff would further refine the details of this request to make a competitive application to our Member offices and the T&I Committee. Interstate 215 Corridor Improvements Congressional Districts: 41-Lewis, 44-Calvert, 45-Bono Mack, 49-/ssa Interstate 215 is a key corridor in the 2009 Measure A Expenditure Plan and is prioritized by the Commission in the 10-Year Western County Highway Delivery Plan. The California Transportation Commission (CTC) has also recognized I-215 as ap priority with a $38 million investment from the Proposition 1B Corridor Mobility Improvement Account (CMIA). The Commission is investing in transit along the corridor as well with the Perris Valley Line Metrolink Extension, a project that has received significant federal investment. This highway is regionally significant in its role as a link between Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. Last week, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution declaring I-215 a bi-county regional priority. The San Bernardino Board of Supervisors will soon adopt the same resolution. The I-215 corridor presents an opportunity to demonstrate regional unity and address significant congestion and air quality Staff proposes that I-215 corridor improvements, consisting of three critical projects, be considered for a High Priority Project request to Congress. challenges. Urgency Item 4 French Valley Parkway This new facility will play a critical role in improving infrastructure in southwest Riverside County and traffic flow near the Riverside/San Diego County border. This $122 million project received High Priority Project designation in SAFETEA-LU from Rep. Darrell Issa. State funds totaling $31.5 million have been placed on the project, designating French Valley Parkway as a regional priority. The authorization request would be approximately $55.2 million. Anticipated construction start is in FY: 2010/11. Central I-215 Project: Scott Road to Nuevo Road This project will add one mixed flow lane addition in both the north and south bound directions of I-215 between Scott and Nuevo Road, approximately 12.9 miles. The project will include the widening of four existing bridges and the replacement of two bridges. The project will involve extensive drainage modifications/mprovements. This project will address some existing drainage problems and account for all new run off. Most work will be within the existing state right of way. The project is in the preliminary engineering and environmental clearance stage, with a projected construction start date in 2013. A total of This segment of I-215 will be a continuation of the widening to be done on from Scott Road to Murrieta Hot Springs Road. That segment is being funded by state $170 million is needed for construction. Proposition 1B funds. I-215 Bi-County HOV Gap Closure Project The Commission added this project to the 10-Year Measure A Delivery Plan in February 2009. This action will expedite a deliverable portion of the larger bi-county I-215 project that will cost upwards of $1.4 billion. The interim project includes the addition of one HOV lane between the newly completed 60/91/215 interchange and Orange Show Road in San Bernardino. The total project cost is expected to be $167.46 million. The Commission will be responsible for $35.72 million with SANBAG responsible for the balance. Caltrans and the Federal Highway Administration have given conceptual approval to deliver this project separately from the larger I-215 bi-county project with the understanding that it will Advocating for this project will require cooperation and coordination with SANBAG in Washington, DC. If staff's recommendation is approved, staff will proactively outreach to SANBAG to advance this project's standing in Washington, DC. be given funding priority and delivered by 2014. Urgency Item 5 As with Alameda Corridor East, staff recommends that I-215 be presented as a dynamic package of investments that are regional in nature with direct federal interest, emphasizing air quality improvement, mobility choices, and goods movement benefits. Perris Valley Line Remains a Priority for Annual Appropriations Cycle Staff is not recommending that Perris Valley Line be included in the I-215 Corridor proposal for authorization. This project has been receiving federal funds from the annual appropriations bills passed by Congress. Perris Valley Line is eligible to receive a Project Construction Grant Agreement (PCGA) from the Federal Transit Administration, which would create an obligation for the federal government to fund the project up to $75 million. Annual appropriations from the Small Starts program sponsored by Senator Feinstein have set aside approximately $47 million for the project in the last two fiscal years. The Commission will continue to request appropriations for Perris Valley Line until the project has received its maximum federal share of $75 million. 1-10 Corridor Improvements 41-Lewis, 45-Bono Mack The Coachella Valley Association of Governments and their local agency partners in the desert have spent many years developing a series of five important interchange reconstructions on I-10. These interchanges have serious economic development, air quality, and congestion relief implications for the Coachella Valley. The free flow of people and commerce off of I-10 is critical to the future of the valley. A major obstacle to delivering these five interchanges has been securing funding in an environment where construction costs escalated globally and budget problems plagued the state and federal governments. The ARRA presented an opportunity for a breakthrough. At its March meeting, the Commission designated the Palm Drive/l-10 and Bob Hope Drive/Ramon Road/l-10 interchanges as priorities for Once these two "stimulus" projects go to construction, there will be three remaining I-10 interchanges to build: Indian Avenue/l-10, Jefferson Street/l-10, and Date Palm Drive/l-10. Assuming timely enactment of the new authorization bill, all three projects could stand to benefit from new federal funding. While local and state commitments have been made to fully fund the projects once they are ready to go to construction, downturns in state and local revenue present potential future obstacles. Staff recommends that the Commission maintain a corridor approach on I-10 and request at least $110 million for all five interchanges to guarantee delivery of these projects once pre-construction work is completed. investment using the Commission's anticipated ARRA funds. Urgency Item 6 Staff has been in communication with CVAG regarding these interchanges and their potential for federal authorization funding. If this priority designation is approved by the ad hoc committee, staff will continue to work with CVAG in preparing a strong and detailed application to our Member offices. Transit Riverside Transit Agency and SunLine Transit Agency will also be asked to prepare requests for High Priority Projects. Staff recommends that the Commission work cooperatively with these operators to develop strong requests for their priority projects. Based on the structure of previous authorization bills, transit projects should not compete with the Commission's highway and grade separation priorities. It is not yet known what priorities the two operators will endorse, however the Commission can work cooperatively to ensure that the transportation community in Riverside County presents a strong package to Congress. Next Steps At the direction of the ad hoc committee, staff will begin preparing documentation to support each High Priority Project request. Staff requests approval of this three- corridor concept and the projects within those corridors, as well as direction to work with regional partner agencies in the development of a coordinated advocacy Due to the deadlines provided by the T&I Committee, time will be of the essence. The May 8 deadline for Members to submit project requests to T&I likely means that Members will ask the Commission to submit its projects for review one or two weeks ahead of the May 8 deadline. Given that these instructions were given last week, it does not provide for a normal course for full Commission consideration before the May 8 deadline. The ad hoc committee's recommendation will be taken to the full Commission. Commission staff and lobbyists are prepared to move As the introductory paragraph to this staff report indicates, the timing of authorization activities has been a constant question since federal economic stimulus legislation began to be contemplated late last year. Despite Chairman Oberstar's assertions that the House will move quickly to pass a new bill, it is not yêt known what Speaker Pelosi's disposition is and few details about the Senate's calendar (other than Senator Boxer's pledge to do a bill on-time) are known. strategy. quickly at the direction of the ad hoc committee. Urgency Item 7 Ultimately, the goal of approving a Commission-sponsored suite of projects and including them in the House bill is to establish a precedent in thé public record that Riverside County infrastructure is a national and regional priority. While the timing of the legislation may change several times, staff recommends that Commission projects be part of the initial draft. 1) Letter from Chairman Oberstar 2) T&I Committee Project Questionnaire Attachments: Urgency Item 8 CITY OFWILDOMAR-CITY COUNCIL Agenda Item 34 A.

GENERAL BUSINESS ITEM Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 TO: FROM: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members Gary Nordquist, Finance Director SUBJECT: Purchasing Ordinance STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council review and consider for adoption the attached ordinance providing purchasing procedures for the City. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS: Since incorporation, the City has been using the County of Riverside's Purchasing Ordinance (Chapter 2.92 of the Riverside County Code) as the Purchasing Ordinance for the City. After encountering several situations relating to the mplementation of the County's ordinance in the City, City staff requested that the City Attorney's Office prepare a Purchasing Ordinance for the City tailored to the City's needs. The attached Purchasing Ordinance will add three new chapters to the Wildomar Municipal Code. Chapter 3.06 will deal with the purchase of supplies and equipment, Chapter 3.07 with professional and consulting services, and Chapter 3.08 with public projects. Each chapter contains detailed procedures for the procurement of the goods and services regulated by that chapter. In general, the procedures required by the ordinance for a particular contract will depend on the dollar amount of the contract. All contracts for $50,000 or more must be approved by the City Council after formal competitive bidding has been completed. Contracts for lesser amounts may be approved by the City Manager with informal bidding procedures being required. For contracts of $1,000 to $9,999, three verbal quotations are required; for contracts of $10,000 to $50,000, three written quotations are required. Exceptions are made for emergency circumstances. For purchases of supplies and equipment, reasonable preference is given to local businesses. Furthermore, the chapter on professional and consulting contracts differs from the County ordinance in that it allows the City to consider the bid price but does not require the City to award a professional or consulting contract to the lowest bidder. This change was made upon the recognition by City staff that due to the expertise and skill RIV; #4812-8370-7139V1 1 Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 required, price should not be the determinative factor in the selection of professional and consultant services. Ins sum, the attached Purchasing Ordinance will provide City staff and the public with clear procedures to be followed for purchases and contracts. The attached Purchasing Ordinance is more detailed than the County ordinance and provides a comprehensive set of procedures that address the full range of the City's purchasing and contracting needs.

Consultants are required for professional or technical expertise and for matters requiring specialized abilities or a high degree of skill.

The consultant's total fee must include all reasonably foreseeable costs and work under the proposed contract. The proposed contract must include any reasonably related work on the same project, and larger contracts shall not be divided into smaller contracts, divided among multiple consultants, or divided by any other method intended to avoid competitive bidding under Section 3.07.030. The City Manager may designate a person or persons to exercise any authority granted to him or her by this Chapter 3.07. 10 RIV #4843-3682-2787v1 $3.07.030 CONSULTING CONTRACTS OVER $50,000. A contract for consulting services valued over fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) must be entered into by use of competitive sealed proposals. Proposals for the contract shall be solicited through a Request for Proposals. (A) Public Notice. Public notice of the Request for Proposals shall be given in the same manner as provided in Section 3.06.110(A) (Formal Contract Procedure, Notice inviting bids). (B) Receipt of Proposals and Release as Public Records. Proposals shall be received and opened in a method that avoids disclosure of contents to competing consultants until after award of the contract or final rejection of all proposals. The Request for Proposals must state that after award of the contract or final rejection of all proposals, all responses become public records subject to disclosure. A copy of each proposal received shall be retained by the City Clerk as required by the City's document retention policies, and shall be open for public inspection after award of the contract or final rejection of all proposals. (C) Evaluation Factors. The Request for Proposals shall state the relative (D) Evaluation of Proposals. After the due date for proposals, the City Manager or his/her designee shall evaluate the proposals and may contact any proposing consultant for clarification of a proposal, to solicit additional information, or for purposes of interviewing. The City Manager or his/her designee may choose to contact all, some, or none of the responding consultants after the proposals are submitted to the importance of evaluation factors, including price. City. (E) Award. The contract shall be awarded to the responsible consultant whose proposal conforms to the Request for Proposals and is determined to be the most advantageous to the City, taking into consideration the evaluation factors set forth in the Request for Proposals and price. The City Manager shall prepare and place in the contract file maintained by the City Clerk's office a written report detailing the basis on which the recommendation for award of contract is made. For contracts entered into pursuant to this section, the City Manager shall submit a report of the proposals to the City Council with a recommendation concerning acceptance or rejection thereof, and the City Council shall approve or disapprove the recommendation and award the $3.07.040 CONTRACTING PROCEDURES FOR ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING contract. AND OTHER CONSTRUCTION RELATED PROFESSIONAL SERVICES (A) Authority.

GENERAL BUSINESS ITEM Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 TO: FROM: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members Julie Hayward Biggs, City Attorney SUBJECT: Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition Act of 2006 ordinance STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt the attached urgency ordinance regulating holders of state-issued video franchises. BACKGROUNDIANALYSIS: The Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition Act of 2006 ("DIVCA") requires ak local government to adopt an ordinance providing a schedule of penalties that apply when the holder of a state-issued video franchise materially breaches the customer service standards provided for in the law. Such an ordinance is a prerequisite for an entity to obtain a state-issued video franchise to operate within the City. This ordinance provides a schedule of penalties that apply to material breaches of customer service standards. The penaltics provided in the ordinance are the maximum penalties allowed for under DIVCA. The ordinance also provides supplemental procedural provisions pertaining to material breaches and assessment of penalties. The attached ordinance is an urgency measure because Time Warner Cable and Verizon both currently operate under state-issued franchises within the City that were issued by the state prior to incorporation. The City needs to have the schedule of penalties in place as soon as possible to be in compliance with the requirements of DIVCA. FISCAL IMPACTS: Positive. Once this ordinance is adopted, the entities holding state video franchises within the City may commence paying the 5% franchise fee mandated by DIVCA to the City directly instead of to the County. This will save the City money by avoiding the administrative charges the County imposes on the City in handling City affairs in its first year of incorporation.

GENERAL BUSINESS ITEM Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 TO: FROM: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members Julie Hayward Biggs, City Attorney SUBJECT: Registered Sex Offender Residency Restrictions STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council introduce and conduct the first reading of the attached ordinance imposing additional residency restrictions on registered sex offenders. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS: On November 7, 2006, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition 83. The law was entitled the Sexual Predator Punishment and Control Act, and is commonly referred to as Jessica's Law." Among other restrictions, Proposition 83 added subsection (b) to Penal Code section 3003.5, which states that registered sex offenders cannot live within 2,000 feet of any public or private school, or park where children regularly gather. Also added was subsection (c) to Penal Code section 3003.5, which allows local jurisdictions to enact local ordinances which further restrict those areas where a registered sex offender may live. The scope and validity of the residency restriction contained in Penal Code section 3003.5(b) has been the subject of litigation, and litigation is still pending before the Supreme Court. In short, the courts have interpreted the residency restriction in Section 3003.5(b) as applying prospectively only. In other words, the residency restrictions do not apply to registered sex offenders who were convicted prior to the effective date of the law and who were paroled, given probation, or released from incarceration prior to the effective date of the law. (Doe V. Schwarzenegger, 476 F.Supp.2d 1178 (2007).) In addition, individuals who were convicted and required to register as sex offenders after the date Jessica's Law took effect may also be exempt from the residency restrictions if the jury in their case did not make specific findings supporting the imposition of the residency restriction. (People V. Mosley, 168 Cal.App.4th 512 (2008).) Though neither of these cases involved a residency restriction adopted by a local jurisdiction pursuant to Penal Code section 3003.5(c), the same principles will apply. Moreover, litigation is currently pending before the California Supreme Court involving the issue of whether the residency restrictions in Jessica's RIV; #4851-1586-3555V1 1 Meeting Date: April 22, 2009 Law may be applied to registered sex offenders whose offenses did not involve children. Also at issue in this case is whether the residency restrictions constitute cruel and unusual punishment. (Inre E.J. on Habeas Corpus, S156933.) That said, no court has overturned residency restrictions imposed by a local jurisdiction pursuant to Penal Code section 3003.5(c). In the absence of any such court ruling, the City has the authority to adopt the proposed Ordinance. The proposed Ordinance would prohibit registered sex offenders from living within a Residential Exclusion Zone." Residential Exclusions Zones are those areas within 2,000 feet of a school, park, child care facility (including preschools, nursery schools, day cares and family home day cares) and youth centers. The ordinance calls for the City Council to approve by resolution a map showing the Residential Exclusion Zones. The proposed Residential Exclusion Zone map is attached to this staff report. A resolution formally adopting the map will be brought at the same time as the second reading of the proposed ordinance. FISCAL IMPACTS: None. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Take no action meeting. Submitted by: 2. Provide staff with further direction and take action at a subsequent Council Approved by: A 1 City Attorney E468 Interim City Manager 2 RIVA851-15863855V1 ORDINANCE NO. 29 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF WILDOMAR, CALIFORNIA, RESTRICTIONS ON REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS MAKING FINDINGS AND IMPOSING RESIDENCY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WILDOMAR DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Findings A. On November 7, 2006, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition 83. The law was entitled the Sexual Predator Punishment and Control Act, and is commonly referred to as "Jessica's Law." Among other restrictions, Proposition 83 added Penal Code section 3003.5(b), which states that registered sex offenders cannot live within 2,000 feet of any public or private school, or park where children regularly gather. Also added was subsection (c), which allows local jurisdictions to enact local ordinances which further restrict those areas where a registered sex offender may live. B. On January 1, 2007, Proposition 83 went into effect. The intent of Proposition 83 was to better protect Californians, and in particular, the children of this State from sex offenders by imposing residency restrictions on such registered sex offenders. C. Current law requires offenders convicted of specified felony or misdemeanor sex crimes to register with local law enforcement officials. There are approximately 90,000 registered sex offenders in California. D. Current law bars parolees convicted of specified sex offenses against a child from residing within one-quarter or one-half mile (1,320 or 2,640 feet, respectively) of a school. The longer distance is for those parolees identified as high risk to reoffend by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation ("CDCR"). Jessica's Law further prohibits sex offenders from residing within 2,000 feet of a public or private school, or park where children regularly gather. E. The Wildomar Municipal Code does not otherwise address or regulate in any manner the restrictions on the residency of sex offenders in close proximity to schools or parks where children regularly gather. F. Recently, several cities in the State of California have adopted ordinances restricting the residency of registered sex offenders. For example, the City of Long Beach passed an ordinance in 2008, to prohibit sex offenders from residing in a "residential exclusion zone," including those areas within 2,000 feet from the closest property line of a child care center, public or private school grades K through 12, or park. G. These ordinances have been passed in response to an increased concern around the protection of children from sex offenders in schools and parks where RIV #4840-1833-1907v1 children regularly gather. The State of California currently places a high priority on maintaining public safety through a highly skilled and trained law enforcement, as well as laws that deter and punish criminal behavior. Californians have a right to know about the presence of sex offenders in their communities, near their schools, and around their children. H. Sex offenders have very high recidivism rates. According to a 1998 report by the U.S. Department of Justice, sex offenders are the least likely to be cured and the most likely to reoffend, and they prey on the most innocent members of our society. More than two-thirds of the victims of rape and sexual assault are under the age of 18. Sex offenders have a dramatically higher recidivism rate for their crimes than any other type of violent felon. I. California must also take additional steps to monitor sex offenders, to protect the public from them, and to provide adequate penalties for and safeguards against sex offenders, particularly those who prey on children. Additional resources are necessary to adequately monitor and supervise sexual predators and offenders. J. Global Positioning System ("GPS") technology is an useful tool for monitoring sexual predators and other sex offenders and is a cost effective measure for parole supervision. It is critical to have close supervision of this class of criminals, to monitor these offenders and prevent them from committing other crimes. Jessica's Law requires lifetime GPS monitoring of felony registered sex offenders. K. Currently, the scope of Jessica's Law is the subject of ongoing litigation. On October 4, 2007, four individuals filed petitions for writ of habeas corpus with the California Supreme Court." The petitioners challenged the enforcement of the residency restrictions of Jessica's Law and argued that (a) the restrictions should not apply to them because the crimes for which they were required to be registered as sex offenders did not involve children, (b) the residency restrictions effectively zoned them out of their counties of residence, and (c) the law is unconsttutionally vague and imposes unreasonable conditions on parole. The Supreme Court issued a stay on the application of the residency restrictions to these four individuals while the case is pending. On October 15, 2007, the Supreme Court refused to apply the stay to other parolee registered sex offenders beyond the four petitioners. The Supreme Court denied the application without prejudice to the filing of an action for declaratory and injunctive relief in an appropriate superior court. The matter is still pending before the Supreme Court. L. Based on the foregoing, the City Council finds that imposing additional restrictions on the residency of sex offenders would protect the public health, safety, and welfare. The City finds that an ordinance to restrict the residency of sex offenders is therefore necessary. SECTION 2. Restrictions on Convicted Sex Offenders Ini re. E.J. on Habeas Corpus, S156933. 2 RIV #4840-1833-1907v1 A. In accordance with the authority granted the City of Wildomar under Proposition 83, and pursuant to the findings stated herein, from and after the effective date of this ordinance, registered sex offenders may not reside within a Residential Exclusion Zone." B. A Residential Exclusion Zone" shall include those areas located within two thousand (2,000) feet of the closest property line of the subject property to the closest property line of a public or private school grades K through 12, a child care center, including but not limited to day care centers, family home day cares, nursery schools and preschools, a park, or a youth center. A youth center is any facility primarily dedicated to use by individuals under the age of 18 for recreational and sports purposes. C. A Residential Exclusion Zone map shall be prepared by the City and adopted by resolution of the City Council. The Residential Exclusion Zone map may be amended by resolution of the City Council from time to time to assure that it reflects current conditions within the City. SECTION 3. Severability Ifany provision of this ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of the ordinance which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this ordinance are severable. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this ordinance irrespective of the invalidity of any particular portion thereof. SECTION 4. Effective Date This ordinance shall become effective 30 days after its enactment in accord with California law. SECTION 5.

STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: Approve the recommended mid-year budget changes listed in the Mid-Year Budget Status Report for Fiscal Year 2008/09. Approve the recommended Fiscal Year 2009/10 Budget Program Schedule. BACKGROUND: The Finance Department prepares quarterly budget updates for the City Council. The purpose of the City's mid-year budget status report is to conduct a comprehensive review of all of the City's funds to: Recommended budgetary changes to address known budget deficiencies. Recommend budget changes to align the budget with projected fiscal year end actual costs. Identify changes which materially impact fund balances. DISCUSSION: The City's initial budget was based on the Comprehensive Fiscal Analysis (CFA) that was prepared April 30, 2007 and served as the fiscal basis for the City's incorporation. Since the City's July 1, 2008 incorporation, significant changes have occurred and budget adjustments are requested to reflect to actual activity needed to run the city. This first year budget is known as the Transition Year" when the City decides which services it will directly provide and which services will continue to be provided by the County or contracted services. During this transition year, the budget is comprised of two major components the City and the County, based on the assumptions in the CFA. As the City has progressed during the transition year several significant changes have taken place. 1 The building development processing activity that was planned to be performed by the County, has been assumed by the City since incorporation, thus, the budgets are requested to be adjusted from the assumption of the county's performance of these Secondly, the economy is significantly different than the assumptions that were included when developing the CFA in 2006/07. The continuing economic down turn has impacted the City's Sales Tax revenues as well as Property Tax and Development Finally, contributing to the challenge of budgeting for a new city is the concept of fitting 17 months worth of service and non-recurring start-up costs ($399,782) into a budget The concluding document of this report is the Recommend Calendar for the activities of tasks. related revenues. based on a 12 month service model. the FY 2009/10 Budget Program.

There were three different backpacks, one for young girls, one for young boys, and at third for older kids (age 91 to 18). The Wildomar Young Marines arrived at the Red Cross facility shortly after 9:00 am with 25 Young Marines not counting adult staff. The Young Marines were quickly tasked to building backpacks, moving materials and ultimately loading vehicles with the finished product. In addition toi the building backpacks, the Young Marines (along with Commanding officer Bill McDonald and Executive Officer Scott Sandler) all recordeda video message directed at the children of military families who have one or both parents deployed. Many of the Young Marines also wrote a number of letters to children of military families as well. While operation Military Kids and the Riverside Red Cross originally asked for volunteers to come and help between the hours of 9:00 am and 1:00 pm, with the help of the Young Marines, all of the backpacks were stuffed by about 10:30 am. This left time for the Young Marines to take a short tour oft the Red Cross facility, learn about the types of things the agency responds to and the equipment they use. We were also reminded about how important remembering to support the Red Cross before a disaster strikes is. While the primary objective of the Young Marines is to reduce youth drug use; community service and support of our nation's military are also core to our values.
