Want to sell / lease a City property? Just put out an RFP/Q
The New World Order:
The SLA requires public agencies to first go through a process
of offering property to affordable housing developers before
pursuing other opportunities.
Value Add Opportunity:
Public agencies should look at SLA as a “Value Capture”
Opportunity to productively use public properties:
•Performance-based leases / ground leases
•Monetizing assets (such as civic centers, parking garages, etc.)
•Selling property to private sector – includes lease-back,
continued operation of existing use, redevelopment to new uses

City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, Interim City Manager;
Daniel Hernandez, Agency Director of Public Works,
Operations, and Maintenance
Department:Public Works
Subject:Agreement with Center for Employment Opportunities
(CEO) (All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a Maintenance Services Agreement with the
Center for Employment Opportunities, (CEO), for City-wide right-of-way maintenance
services, litter/illegal dumping collection, and weed abatement.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-116 authorizing the Agency Director of Administrative
Services to amend the FY2023/24 Gas Tax Operating Budget Revenue and
Expenditures by $464,340 for right-of-way clean-up services and weed abatement;
and
3. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to issue a purchase order
not to exceed the amount of $1,014,340.
Background
The Operations and Maintenance Division (O&M) of the Public Works Department is
responsible for the maintenance, repair, beautification, and clean-up of City-owned
infrastructure and rights of way. In conjunction with various vendors and non-profit
organizations, it is also responsible for ensuring the City’s rights-of-way, properties,
and streets are properly maintained and kept free of litter, illegally dumped debris, and
other hazards. This includes weed abatement and mowing on City-owned properties,
vacant lots, alleys, and sidewalks. The Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO) is
an important partner in the department’s maintenance efforts.
Packet Pg. 133

In March of 2016, an agreement with CEO was approved by the Mayor and City Council
after a brief introduction to the organization and its mission. The City Council believed
CEO would be beneficial not just to the clean-up of the city, but in providing work
programs for individuals under parole or probation supervision. In May of 2018, the
Mayor and City Council approved an extension of the program and expressed a strong
interest in expanding the scope of the program. The City Council also approved two
other amendments extending the program to June 30, 2023.
Discussion
The City of San Bernardino has approximately 62 square miles within its city limits and
more than 534 center lane miles for which maintenance, clean-up, litter collection and
weed abatement is required. While in-house staff and other landscape maintenance
contractors generally provide these maintenance and clean-up services at parks and
street medians, areas such as alleys, vacant lots and other City properties have largely
relied on CEO for their maintenance and cleanliness services. Staff have recognized
the vital role CEO (as a non-profit organization) has provided in the performance of
these duties. They continue to be a vital player in the City’s efforts to keep its streets
and rights-of-way clean.
To date, the program has been a complete success with little to no daily oversight
required by City staff other than providing daily work tasks. In-house staff issues these
regular work tasks to CEO via Public Works’ work order management system with
nothing more required. CEO is responsible for its payroll, insurance, in-the-field
supervision, and management of their crews. With increased responsibilities for City
supervisors and managers, CEO’s dependability and self-management of crews has
been invaluable to staff and has reduced the administrative burden of managing
additional crews for management staff.
It is also important to note that as a non-profit organization, CEO provides a
desperately needed service at very competitive rates below market cost. They utilize
prevailing wages but subsidize 55% of the cost the city would otherwise pay for similar
services. Additionally, they provide all training to their crews at no cost to the city and
are responsible for their own equipment, supplies, and personal protective
equipment. The city only allows them to dispose of collected debris and litter at our
city yard.
CEO crews consist of at least 6 employees per crew with dedicated on-site field
supervisors. An additional smaller crew responsible for daily illegal dump clean-up on
City streets and rights-of-ways consists of 3 employees plus a supervisor. The crews
work five days a week and are flexible to the needs of the city should more important
maintenance or cleanliness services be required, such as palm frond or storm debris
clean-up.
CEO’s annual work production for the city has been nothing short of
remarkable. Within the past year, they have provided the following services:

Remarks
295 palm frond piles removed Each pile consists of large palm

Illegal Dumps
1,445 illegal dumps removed city-
wide
Only includes January 2023 to April
2023 since the new “roving crew”
program was initiated. By far, the
biggest contribution from CEO as
each illegal dump can average 2
cubic yards of debris.
Exception to Non-Competitive Procurement
In March of 2023, the Operations and Maintenance Division of Public Works worked
with the City Attorney and Procurement to determine the best path forward in ensuring
the City would be able to continue providing the vital services CEO has been
delivering. CEO is a non-profit organization with a proven track record of success, with
their clean-up effort and reducing recidivism rates among parolees residing in the City.
In addition, CEO assists with work transitional services (to include those related to the
unhoused community). A determination was made that an exception to the standard
procurement process could be used under the “public good” clause. As a result, CEO
was asked to provide the cost to renew their services within a new maintenance service
agreement. The cost requested primarily focuses on a cost-per-crew with optional
crews included, should Council or staff decide to further-expand their services to
building facilities or graffiti abatement services in the future. These detailed costs are
Packet Pg. 135

provided in Exhibit 2 of Attachment 1 but are summarized in the table below. It is
important to note these costs will be renewed, should the City exercise any options to
extend the agreement. This agreement will consist of four option years after the first
contract year and will be renewed annually at the City’s discretion. The last option year
will expire on June 30, 2028. The City will need to budget annually for each option
year should they be exercised within the Public Works Operations and Maintenance.

Graffiti Crew 2 participants plus supervisor $182,275
OPTIONAL CREW TOTAL:$444,417
* The optional crews are shown for reference only
Staff is confident that CEO will continue providing the same exceptional level of service
that has been demonstrated since City Council initiated this program in 2016. Should
further expansion of the program be considered, costs for optional crews are provided
and an amendment to extend services would be sought from City Council.
In FY 22/23 the funding allocation for these services utilized the Gas Tax Fund in the
amount of $550,00 and was requested for appropriation in the upcoming FY2023/24
budget. A budget amendment is requested within the Public Works, Operations and
Maintenance budget in the amount of $464,340 to compensate for the additional roving
illegal dump crews. The total annual amount of this agreement is $1,014,340.
The Gas Tax Fund has historically been utilized for curb-to-curb improvements of City
streets and roads. This includes minor projects, repairs, upgrades, and maintenance
within the boundaries of the street.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
This project is consistent with several goals and targets. It is aligned with Goal No.
3: Improved Quality of Life. This maintenance service agreement will ensure City
streets, property, vacant lots, alleys, and rights-of-way are kept clean and free of litter
and weeds. It will also enhance safety for our residents and improve the quality of
life.

Fiscal Impact
The impact to the Gas Tax Fund will be $1,014,340 for this item. There is no General
Fund impact. Additionally, the Gas Tax Fund will require an amendment of $464,340
to compensate for the additional illegal dump (roving) crews as only $550,000 has
been programmed annually into the upcoming FY 2023/24 budget. The full amount of
$1,014,340 will be required annually until FY 2028 should the City elect option years.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a Maintenance Services Agreement with the
Center for Employment Opportunities, (CEO), for City-wide right-of-way maintenance
services, litter/illegal dumping collection, and weed abatement.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-096 authorizing the Agency Director of Administrative
Services to amend the FY2023/24 Gas Tax Operating Budget Revenue and
Expenditures by $464,340 for right-of-way clean-up services and weed abatement; and
3. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to issue a purchase order
not to exceed the amount of $1,014,340.

initial commencement date, or since the start of the subsequent billing periods, as appropriate,
through the date of the statement. City shall, within 45 days of receiving such statement, review
the statement and pay all approved charges thereon.
3.3.3 Deductions. City may deduct or withhold, as applicable, from each
progress payment an amount necessary to protect City from loss because of: (1) stop payment
notices as allowed by state law; (2) unsatisfactory prosecution of the Services by Contractor; (3)
sums representing expenses, losses, or damages as determined by the City, incurred by the City
for which Contractor is liable under the Agreement; and (4) any other sums which the City is
entitled to recover from Contractor under the terms of the Agreement or pursuant to state law,
including Section 1727 of the California Labor Code. The failure by the City to deduct any of
these sums from a progress payment shall not constitute a waiver of the City's right to such sums.
3.3.4 Reimbursement for Expenses. Contractor shall not be reimbursed for any
expenses unless authorized in writing by City.
3.3.5 Extra Work. At any time during the term of this Agreement, City may
request that Contractor perform Extra Work. As used herein, “Extra Work” means any work which
is determined by City to be necessary for the proper completion of the Project, but which the
parties did not reasonably anticipate would be necessary at the execution of this Agreement.
Contractor shall not perform, nor be compensated for, Extra Work without written authorization
from City’s Representative.
3.3.6 Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California
Labor Code Section 1720, et seq., and 1770, et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations,
Title 8, Section 16000, et seq., (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), which require the payment of prevailing
wage rates and the performance of other requirements on certain “public works” and
“maintenance” projects. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public
works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if the total
compensation is $1,000 or more, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage
Laws. City shall provide Contractor with a copy of the prevailing rates of per diem wages in effect
at the commencement of this Contract. Contractor shall make copies of the prevailing rates of
per diem wages for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute the Services
available to interested parties upon request and shall post copies at Contractor’s principal place
of business and at the project site. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its
officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claims, liabilities, costs,
penalties or interest arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage
Laws. It shall be mandatory upon the Contractor and all subcontractors to comply with all
California Labor Code provisions, which include but are not limited to prevailing wages (Labor
Code Sections 1771, 1774 and 1775), employment of apprentices (Labor Code Section 1777.5),
certified payroll records (Labor Code Sections 1771.4 and 1776), hours of labor (Labor Code
Sections 1813 and 1815) and debarment of contractors and subcontractors (Labor Code Section
1777.1). The requirement to submit certified payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner

under Labor Code section 1771.4 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that
is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Section 1771.4.
3.3.7 Registration/DIR Compliance. If the Services are being performed as part
of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project, and if the total compensation is $15,000
or more, then pursuant to Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, the Contractor and all
subcontractors performing such Services must be registered with the Department of Industrial
Relations. Contractor shall maintain registration for the duration of the Project and require the
same of any subcontractors, as applicable. This Project may also be subject to compliance
monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. It shall be Contractor’s
sole responsibility to comply with all applicable registration and labor compliance requirements.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the contractor registration requirements mandated by Labor Code
Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is
exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and
1771.1. Any stop orders issued by the Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or
any subcontractor that affect Contractor’s performance of Services, including any delay, shall be
Contractor’s sole responsibility. Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall
be considered Contractor caused delay and shall not be compensable by the City. Contractor
shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and
harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the Department of
Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor.

STAFFING
It is requested at least (1) roving illegal dump collection crew of at least 3 participants
and one supervisor be provided on a daily basis for street/row cleanup activities. An
additional standard crew of at least 6 participants (plus a supervisor) is requested for
larger clean-up of vacant city lots or other City property.
•Supplemental Staffing: Two (2) supplemental roving illegal dump collection crews are
requested within this agreement. The City recognizes that this is contingent upon
participant availability.
•Optional Staffing: A third (optional) crew of at least 4 participants and one supervisor is
also highly desired to assist with janitorial services at approximately 20 city parks. A
fourth (optional) crew of at least 2 participants plus one supervisor is desirable for graffiti
abatement/curb painting. Please Note: The cost for optional crews should not be
reflected in overall cost for services, but, rather, included as a separate amount.
Program Participants: The organization will ensure that crews providing services to
the city will be comprised of individuals who live in San Bernardino County, have
criminal conviction(s), and have been thoroughly screened by the organization to
ensure they will be suitable participants for a program of this nature.
EQUIPMENT
The organization must provide a listing of available equipment and supplies to reassure the City
of its ability to perform required work tasks. While no specific equipment is mandated, it is
generally expected that the organization will possess the following:
•2 large stake bed trucks
•3 passenger vehicles with trailer-mounted porta-potties
•Rakes, blowers, weed-whackers, litter pickers, pressure-washers,
•All necessary PPE for employees
Packet Pg. 159
EXHIBIT A
Additional Notes:
Litter collection may be required from sidewalks, store fronts, alcoves, entrances, crevices and
may include items such as leftover food, used clothing/shoes, debris, syringes, and is not limited
solely to paper-based wrappings or discarded food packaging. These items may be
disposed in City trash receptacles (if at a low volume) and/or brought to the City yard for higher
volumes (excluding syringes/needles).
Litter collection in ravines, creeks, washes, or embankments will require a separate agreement
between both parties (the City and Organization) to ensure maximum safety should the need
arise. The inability to provide these tasks will not disqualify the organization from consideration
for this project.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE 501 (c) 3 ORGANIZATION
The organization will:
•Perform all outreach, recruitment, screening, and enrollment for program participants
and will manage all aspects related to participant’s requirements for verification or

tasks (or employment) for any outside entities or other related agencies requesting such
information.
•Screen all participants and provide supervisory controls to ensure eligibility and fitness
for work,
•Provide supervisors for each work crew.
•Ensure the safety of all participants to include training for working in streets, proper PPE
usage, and any other safety-related training.
•Provide compensation in accordance with all local, state, and federal minimum wage
laws.

The term for these services is from July 19, 2023 to June 30, 2024, with four (4) annual option
years, culminating on June 30, 2028.
HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT DISCLAIMER(S)
The organization may reserve the right and sole discretion to decline to perform right-of-way
maintenance services at a city-designated site if such site contains potentially hazardous
materials, including but not limited to biohazardous materials, an active or recently active
homeless encampment, and/or if any persons impacted by homelessness are near the site.
Packet Pg. 160
EXHIBIT A
Both parties agree that should litter and/or illegally dumped items be reasonably considered by
CEO to be the personal property of homeless individuals, CEO will elect to not disturb said
items and will notify the City.
WORK TASK DEFINITIONS:
1. Litter Collection from Grounds. This includes the collection of all litter from the median or
island grounds to include collection from grass turf, landscape beds, decorative rock beds,
stamped pavement, pavers, or concrete surfaces. Litter shall include non-typical discarded

disposed of properly in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.
2. Palm Frond Collection. Collection of palm fronds on City ROWs, sidewalks, or other City-
owned properties. Removal of fronds from storm drains/gutters and greenbelts. Support during
and post-windstorm events is expected when tasks can be accomplished safely.
3. Scraping and Removal of Slap Stickers. Removal of minor slap stickers or other
adhesive-based graffiti on City poles, utility boxes, fences, etc. This will likely require scraping
and other methods to remove the stickers. Wipe down of any leftover residue is required.
4. Sweeping/Blowing. Sweeping/blowing of sidewalks, parking lots, curbs, walking trails and
collection of left-over debris. Areas should be free of any dirt/silt once sweeping or blowing is
complete.

intersection poles, utility boxes, fences, windows, pedestrian crossing signs, etc. This may be
accomplished through non-toxic chemicals, pressure washing, or touch-up with matching paint.

walls, or other similar infrastructure requiring paint touch-up. The city will provide paint and paint
supplies.
8. Raking of Landscaped Areas. All landscape beds (regardless of the volume of

SCHEDULE OF SERVICES
Work Reporting and Notification. The organization will be required to notify the City
representative (via email) of the amount of crews available to perform work on a daily basis.
Upon notification, the City representative will determine which work locations will be assigned.
Variations to this process may occur when work tasks/locations are determined in advance by
the City representative. If possible (and without creating an extra, undue, burden to the
organization), before and after photos of work accomplished will be highly desirable for City
staff.
•General Daily Operations for Roving Illegal Dump Crew(s): Roving illegal dump
crews will be assigned arterial streets to inspect (drive) and begin collection of litter and
illegally dumped items. Should all assigned streets be completed before the end of day,
the Crew Supervisor will contact the City representative (Streets Supervisor) and request
additional tasks for the day. Throughout the workday, the Crew Supervisor may receive
no-notice litter collection or illegally dumped items requests. Once he or she receives
this call, he may make a judgement call as to collect the items immediately or wait until
the last work hour of the day unless he receives specific instructions to collect the
litter/items immediately. The intent is to not bounce crews all over town with individual
requests (however, this may unfortunately happen on rare occasions).
Other Assigned Tasks: As previously described, crews may be assigned minor landscaping
tasks such as weed abatement, brush removal, vegetation removal, sediment removal from time
to time. Though this is not the primary work task, it will be requested by the Streets Supervisor
when the need arises. The City will make every effort to provide advance notice of these types
of requests.
Hours of Operation. All work will be performed Mondays to Fridays within the hours of 7 a.m.

Discussion
As part of the FY 2018/19 budget, the Mayor and City Council approved additional
funds to support increased right of way maintenance as well as funding for as-needed
temporary labor support. Public Works staff saw this need and funding as a great
opportunity to expand the currently successful trial CEO program.
This amendment will increase the contract amount with CEO to $465,645 and extends
the terms of the current agreement to June 30, 2019. With this increased budgeted
amount, CEO will be able to provide two additional crews (for a total of three crews) to
perform weed abatement, maintenance, and cleanliness services in the City’s
landscaped areas, City-owned private properties, and rights of ways. Equally important,
this amendment will allow CEO to have wider-coverage of the City with faster response
times and will address City Council’s desire to expand the scope of the program. Under
the current agreement, CEO has only been utilizing one crew to perform work activities
throughout the City.
CEO crews consist of at least five employees per crew with a dedicated on-site
supervisor. The crews work five days per week (40 hours per employee) and receive
direct assignments from Public Works (often on a daily basis but work assignments may
be provided on a weekly basis for longer-term assignments).
The City will continue issuing regular work assignments to the CEO team and has
recently implemented a methodology to track all of CEO’s work activities via Public
Work’s work order management system. CEO will continue to be responsible for
payroll, insurance, in-the-field supervision, and management of their team.
It’s important to note that CEO provides a unique service with very competitive rates at
below-market cost. They utilize prevailing wages but subsidize 59% of the cost that the
City would otherwise pay for similar services. In addition, they provide training to their
crews at no cost to the City and provide personal protective equipment (PPE) and
appropriate foot ware to their employees.
2018-2019 Goals and Objectives
Augmenting City staff with CEO crews aligns with Goal No 4: Ensure Development of a
Well-Planned, Balanced, and Sustainable City; Goal No 5: Improve City Government
Operations; Goal No 6: Operate in a Fiscally Responsible and Businesslike Manner;
and Goal No. 7: Pursue City Goals and Objectives by Working with Other Agencies.
Fiscal Impact
Funds are to be expended as follows:
$465,645 for FY 18/19 (July 1, 2018 – June 30, 2019)
Cost to the City is $465,645. Funding for this contract in FY18/19 is budgeted in account
126-400-0099-5502 ($370,859), 001-400-0037-5014 ($74,786), and ($20,000) from
account 001-380-0072-5505.

Mary Alvarez-Gomez, Grants Division Manager
Department:City Manager's Office
Subject:Co-Applicant for Round 5 Transformative Climate

The Housing Authority of San Bernardino County (HASBC) approached the City to
partner as a co-applicant to the project development application for the Arrowhead
Grove Redevelopment Project. The project development grant option is intended to
bridge support for projects that are not quite shovel ready but have a defined, existing
regional or local plan that benefits vulnerable communities. The application
requirements call for a collaborative stakeholder structure based upon a shared
vision. Based upon these elements, staff began to engage in planning meetings as
potential partners.
Discussion
Recognizing that the City’s role and partnership is vital to the success of the
redevelopment of the Arrowhead Grove site, staff has been engaged as a collaborative
partner to identify and develop strategies to draft an application for the project
development option to the TCC grant. With HASBC serving as the lead applicant, the
partnership involves key stakeholders as co-applicants to address various elements
required of the grant, including:
•City of San Bernardino
•Dignity Health/Common Spirit
•El Sol Neighborhood Educational Center
•Growing Hope Project
•Loma Linda University
•Making Hope Happen Foundation
•Neighborhood Housing Services of the Inland Empire
•OmniTrans
•San Bernardino County Workforce Development Agency
•San Bernardino Transportation Authority
This grant opportunity can potentially earn up to $5M in funding to San Bernardino to
carry out the project scope of work. The TCC grant maintains a list of transformative
elements to address include, community engagement, displacement avoidance,
climate adaptation and resiliency, and workforce development and economic
opportunities, and data collection and indicator tracking. The pre-development work
proposed in the application will address these elements through the Arrowhead Grove
Redevelopment Project for the 93 units of mixed income and mixed-use residential
development and a community resource center. The community resource center will
serve the community with convenient access to health care, job training, and other
supportive services. Connecting this site to the downtown area and other amenities
such as parks, libraries and schools through the infrastructure surrounding the
Arrowhead Grove site. This strategy addresses Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction
through the development of housing and a multi-modal approach with a focus on public
transportation, and improvements to accommodate pedestrian and bicycle traffic.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The submittal of this application as a co-applicant for TCC grant funds aligns with Key
Target Goal No. 3 Improved Quality of Life, by attempting to secure additional funds to
Packet Pg. 201

increase affordable housing, improved transportation infrastructure and economic
development through engagement, collaboration, and alignment with other partners
and sectors of industry.
Fiscal Impact

identify additional indicators for tracking and monitoring based on selected Project
types.
d.Outreach and Oversight Committees. The development team will build from the
existing, ongoing community organizing work that is currently being done by the Making
Hope Happen Foundation via their “Uplift San Bernardino” initiative. This group has
several subcommittees which will serve as the “outreach” component of our community
engagement efforts. The oversight committee for the TCC Grant implementation will
consist of the existing stakeholder group that is working on the CACHI grant, which was
awarded to the Making Hope Happen Foundation in late May 2023. The CACHI
stakeholder group already includes the partners that are co-applicants for this TCC Grant,
While the Uplift San Bernardino subcommittees will serve as an advisory committee that
shall be a resource for community collaboration and feedback, the CACHI grant advisory
committee will provide overall guidance on implementation of the chosen strategies and
the transformative plans, and material changes to the Projects including major budget or
programmatic changes.
I. The community outreach efforts will be overseen by the Uplift San Bernardino
subcommittees while the project oversight will be done by the CACHI grant
advisory committee. The CACHI Grant advisory committee is currently composed
of representatives from Loma Linda University, Dignity Health, the Making Hope
Happen Foundation, El Sol Neighborhood Educational Center, and the Housing
Authority of San Bernardino. This stakeholder group represents varied and
diverse community members from the non-profit sector, the public sector,
education and the community. This team was awarded this grant on behalf of this
project to ensure that it meets the needs of the community from a health equity
and housing affordability perspective. The CACHI grant mandates community
involvement in all major policy, development, and fiscal decisions, making it well
suited to serve as the conduit for oversight of the transformative elements
associated with the TCC grant implementation.
II. We will have a formal process in place for introducing new organizations and
individuals to the CACHI grant advisory committee. This process will give priority
in terms of selecting individuals that live, work, or own property in the City of San
Bernardino, and preferably near the Arrowhead Grove Project Area as depicted
in Exhibit A. Preference will also be given to organizations or individuals that
actively participated in the creation of the Waterman + Baseline Specific Plan.
Members will be required to disclose any financial interests in Projects or Partner
agencies through a conflict of interest disclosure substantially similar to the form
set forth in Exhibit C. Member vacancies will be filled through nominations

submitted to the Making Hope Happen Foundation and the Housing Authority of
San Bernardino via a publicly advertised process including but not limited to
posting on the Uplift San Bernardino website, flyers at community events and

CACHI grant advisory committee. Nominations will be reviewed by
representatives from these committees including community stakeholders and
locally active nonprofits to ensure that community area residents, community-
based groups, religious institutions, advocates, business owners, and community
development corporations are all well represented on the advisory committee.
Nominations will be voted on by existing members based on a majority vote.
III. Members will serve a two-year term but are eligible for reelection in accordance
with the nomination and appointment process.

committees. It is the goal, but not a requirement, of the process to have many
recommendations or advisory statements to be supported by the majority of the
committee members.

Acknowledgement
The Housing Authority of San Bernardino County conforms to the Political Reform Act’s
standards in determining whether a public official has a financial conflict of interest that
is reasonably foreseeable and material. In the event of a conflict of interest, public
officials will typically need to disqualify themselves from the decision. There are five
types of financial interests as set forth below.
• Business Entity: A Member has a financial interest in a business entity where the
Member, his spouse, or dependent children have invested $2,000 or more. A
Member also has a financial interest in a business entity for which the Member is
a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, or holds any position of
management.
• Real Property: A Member has a financial interest in real property in which the
Member, his spouse, dependent children, or an agent has invested $2,000 or
more. This may also include certain leasehold interests of terms more than a
month. Conflict of interest rules regarding real property are broken into two
categories:
o Property within 500 feet of decision: A Member may not participate in the
decision unless they have received written advice from the FPPC that the
decision will have no measurable impact on the value of the Member’s
property. o Property outside 500 feet of decision: A Member must consider
whether the decision “would cause a reasonably prudent person, using due
care and consideration under the circumstances, to believe that the
governmental decision was of such a nature that its reasonably foreseeable
effect would influence the market value of the Member’s property.”
• Sources of Income: A Member has a financial interest in anyone, whether an
individual or an organization, from whom the Member has received (or been
promised) $500 or more income within 12 months prior to the decision. A
“source of income” includes a community interest in the spouse’s income.
• Gifts: A Member has a financial interest in anyone, whether an individual or an
organization, who has given gifts to the Member that total $470 or more within 12
months prior to the decision. A “gift” is defined as any payment or other benefit
that confers a personal benefit for which a public Member does not provide
payment or services of equal or greater value. A gift includes a rebate or discount
on the price of anything of value unless the rebate or discount is made in the
regular course of business to members of the public.
• Personal Finances: A Member has a financial interest in decisions that affect the
Member’s personal expenses, income, assets, or liabilities, as well as those of the
Member’s immediate family.

City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, Interim City Manager;
Marr Christian, Code Enforcement Division Manager
Department:Community, Housing, & Economic Development (CED)
Subject:Approve the Purchase of Handheld Transceiver Radios
from Motorola Solutions for Code Enforcement Officers
(All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Authorize the City Manager to approve a Goods Purchasing Agreement with
Motorola Solutions, Inc.; and
2. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to issue a purchase order
in the amount of $130,164.29 for Handheld Transceiver Radios for Code
Enforcement Officers.
Background
On September 11, 2012, during the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors’
meeting, the board took action (Attachment 2 – San Bernardino County Board of
Supervisors Agenda Item 30) which standardized Motorola Solutions as the radio
equipment and services to be utilized on the County’s Public Safety Communication
radio system. For all radio communication, the City utilizes San Bernardino County’s
Public Safety Communication system and its radio frequencies across the entire
organization and must adhere to the equipment and service standard of the County.
On December 7, 2022, as part of the FY 2022/23 First Quarter Update, the Mayor and
City Council approved staff’s request for $80,000 to purchase new handheld
Packet Pg. 222
1
1

7
transceiver radios for the Code Enforcement Division. At that time, the Code
Enforcement Division only needed approximately 8-10 radios.
Discussion
Communication is essential to officer safety. As the Code Enforcement Division grows
in number and their responsibilities become more dynamic, the need to maintain
reliable and effective communication with field staff is growing.
Code Enforcement was in the process of obtaining a quote to purchase 8-10 new
radios when the Division was informed that all the radio communication equipment
(handheld radio transceivers) currently being used by Code Enforcement Officers have
been requested to be returned to the Police Department by the end of Fiscal Year
22/23. The Police Department had loaned the equipment to Code Enforcement, but
now requires the radios for their own department needs. Code Enforcement needs 20
new radios and has submitted a new quote for purchase (Attachment 1).
The original $80,000 that was approved by Mayor and City Council during the FY 22/23
Quarter 1 update was to purchase 8-10 handheld radio transceivers. With the Code
Enforcement Division returning their current radio equipment to the Police Department,
the Division now needs a total of 20 handheld radio transceivers. Because the radios
are a top priority for Code Enforcement, the division has reallocated funds within its
existing budget to cover the additional cost of the equipment.
To ensure that the equipment functions appropriately and communications are open
between the Police, Code Enforcement, and the County, if necessary, staff
recommends adhering to the County’s standards, which requires working directly with
Motorola Solutions, Inc., the manufacturer of the requested equipment, and the
standard for San Bernardino County, and the only radio equipment allowed and usable
on its system. A single source justification form is attached (Attachment 3) and was
approved by the Purchasing Division. Motorola Solutions was identified as a single
source vendor because of San Bernardino County’s requirements.
Please note that the use of the County’s Safety Communication Network is a
negotiated monthly service that is separate from this purchase.
The table below shows the available funding.
Code Enforcement available budget $51,000.00

The request for a purchase order with Motorola Solutions aligns with Strategic Target
No. 2: Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community. Specifically, Goal 2b:
Evaluate operations and performance, investment in technology, and tools to
continually improve organizational efficiency and effectives. Purchasing new
communications equipment will improve communication between staff, organizational
efficiency, effectiveness, and keep compatibility with San Bernardino County’s Safety
Communication System.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. Sufficient funds exist within the
Code Enforcement budget to purchase the requested radio equipment.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Authorize the City Manager to approve a Goods Purchasing Agreement with
Motorola Solutions, Inc.; and
2. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to issue a purchase order
in the amount of $130,164.29 for Handheld Transceiver Radios for Code
Enforcement Officers.

SYSTEM UPGRADE
RECOMMENDATION(S)
1. Find that it is in the best interest of the County to: continue the use of Motorola Solutions Inc.
radio equipment and services and Aviat Networks microwave equipment and services as the
standard: and to upgrade the County Public Safety Radio Communication System and
maintain this standardization throughout the lifecycle of the upgrade project and useful life of
upgraded system not to exceed 15 years.
2. Approve an Agreement No.12-696 with Motorola Solutions Inc., in an amount not to exceed

(Presenter: Joel Golub, Chief Information Officer, 388-5501)
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS COUNTY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Improve County Government Operations.
Operate in a Fiscally-Responsible and Business-Like Manner.
Maintain Public Safety.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funding for the 800 MHz Upgrade Project is included in the Architecture and Engineering
Department (A&E) capital fund (CJP CIP 2V03). In 2011-12 the Board approved redirecting the
annual allocation of $24.0 million for Future Space Needs Reserve to fund this project. Funding
for 2012-13 was reduced to $20.0 million as the upgrade project is now planned to be
programmed over a longer period of time. The preliminary total estimated cost of this project is
approximately $175 million. This cost will be validated through the proposed Motorola Solutions
Inc. engineering and planning study at a cost not to exceed $250,000.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Approval of this item includes findings that it is in the best interest of the County to establish
Motorola Solutions Inc. (Motorola) radio equipment and services and Aviat Networks microwave
equipment and services, as the standard to be used in the upgrade of the County’s 800 MHz
radio system and will approve an agreement with Motorola Solutions Inc. in an amount not to

exceed $250,000, for an engineering and planning study to be performed for the upgrade of the
County Public Safety Radio Communication System. This study is necessary to provide a project
scope, equipment list and associated costs.
Several Board actions occurred between June 20, 1988 and July 24, 1989, resulting in the
release of a Request for Proposal for a radio system, development and upgrade of microwave
radio sites and equipment, and the award of Agreement no. 89-639 with Motorola. The total
ending value of the contract with Motorola was approximately $9.3 million. In 1990, the system
was completed and began operations. The total cost of the system including Harris (Aviat
Networks) microwave equipment, tower construction and upgrades was approximately $25 million
and was funded by the issuance of certificates of participation which have since been fully paid.
The radio system operated for the first ten years without any major enhancements. In 2000,
Motorola discontinued support on this now obsolete technology.
Between December 2007 and April 2008, AECOM was contracted and performed a high level
needs assessment and cost estimate for a new/upgraded radio system. The vendor analyzed
both the radio system and dispatch centers, and estimated replacement cost of the County Public
Safety Radio System at $215 million. The proposed study differs significantly from the AECOM
assessment in that this is an in depth analysis to determine specific equipment needs, radio
coverage, approximate site locations and final cost estimate for the upgrade.
San Bernardino County has an investment of nearly $40 million dollars in Motorola P25 Digital
capable radio mobile, portable, and backbone equipment. In addition, the County has built an
extensive Aviat Networks microwave transport system allowing for network compatibility and
visibility through the standardization of this equipment. The decision to continue upgrading
backbone equipment using Motorola Solutions Inc. P25 solution and Aviat Network microwave
equipment is compelling. Motorola mobile and portable radios operating on a Motorola backbone
system connected by an Aviat Networks transport system ensures consistent functionality
throughout the County radio network and offers users a very predictable operating experience,
which is crucial in the high danger public safety environment that our first responders operate in
daily. Any disparate equipment introduced in this network is capable of hindering the monitoring,
visibility and trouble resolution process and introduces risk of additional system failure points.
This standardization action through the proposed lifecycle allows for non-manufacturer specific
technology, limiting potential disruptive transition to (or integration with) future technologies and
equipment creating the desired interoperability with other public agencies. Standardizing on
Motorola Solutions Inc. and Aviat Networks professional services will ensure that the upgrade is
completed by the equipment manufacturers, as they hold the greatest level of expertise on the
products.
On June 1, 2012, County staff met with members of local public safety agencies, including the
Sheriff’s Department, Police Departments, County Fire Department, and CONFIRE member
agencies to discuss the proposed radio system upgrade project. The County received full
concurrence and support for the system upgrade recommendation to Motorola P25 digital radio
system.

City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, Interim City Manager;
Mary E. Lanier, Interim Agency Director of Community,
Housing, and Economic Development
Department:Community, Housing, & Economic Development (CED)
Subject:Imposing Liens on Certain Real Property to Recover
Costs for Code Enforcement Abatements of Public
Nuisance
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, adopt Resolution No. 2023-115, imposing liens on certain real property
located within the City of San Bernardino to recover costs for Code Enforcement
abatement of public nuisance.
Background
On October 5, 2015, the Mayor and Common Council adopted Ordinance MC-1418,
which repealed San Bernardino Municipal Code Chapters 3.68 and 8.27 and amended
Chapter 8.30. On September 18, 2019, the Mayor and City Council adopted Ordinance
MC-1521, which made further revisions to Chapter 8.30. These changes have
streamlined the City’s ability to abate public nuisances on properties and impose liens
to enable the City to recover costs for abating nuisances.
Discussion
San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 8.30.050 requires a resolution be adopted in
order to assess unpaid costs of abatement as liens upon the respective parcels of land
as they are shown upon the last available assessment roll.
The Abatement Assessments are for public nuisance abatements performed by the
Code Enforcement Division which includes properties that were either secured and/or
cleaned via administrative inspection warrants or were deemed Unsafe for Occupancy
Packet Pg. 238

by the Code Enforcement Division. Included in this section, are emergency board-ups
requested by the Police and County Fire Departments. Emergency board-ups are
requested after a break-in has occurred or after fire suppression activities are
completed, when no responsible parties can be reached. Additionally, there were three
property demolitions performed with administrative demolition warrants.
All affected property owners identified on the Abatement Assessments list (Attachment
1) have been notified through regular and certified mail of the respective abatement
costs per SBMC 8.30.023. Further, affected property owners were also issued a Notice
of Summary Abatement with the option to schedule a hearing per SBMC 8.30.045 and
have also been advised of their right to appeal said costs within ten days, or to pay the
costs within 45 days of notice, per San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 8.30.030
and 8.30.040. To date, no hearings have been requested and the costs are currently
outstanding. As such, staff recommends adopting the resolution in order to assess the
unpaid costs of the nuisance abatements.
To date the total of outstanding fees for warrant abatements, emergency abatements
and demolitions on the Abatement Assessment list, is $93,047.54. If property owners
come forward to pay their costs prior to the council meeting, their properties will be
removed from Attachment 1.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The request to impose liens to recover costs for Code Enforcement abatements aligns
with Key Target No. 1: Improved Operational & Financial Capacity and Key Target No.
4: Economic Growth & Development. Imposing liens to resolve public nuisances would
ensure the City receives revenue back into the Community & Economic Development
Department and that the City continues to strive towards being clean and attractive.
Fiscal Impact
The anticipated amount to be collected is $93,047.54. The amount will be collected
incrementally as individual properties are sold and/or liens are paid through the
escrow process or entered as an assessment on the County tax roll.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, adopt Resolution No. 2023-115, imposing liens on certain real property
located in the City of San Bernardino to recover costs for Code Enforcement abatement
of public nuisance.

Homelessness
Department:Community, Housing, & Economic Development (CED)
Subject:Resolution and Amendment to the California Department
of Housing and Community Development Standard
Agreement for Permanent Local Housing Allocation Funds
Spending Plan and Allocations (All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1.Adopt Resolution 2023-097 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San
Bernardino, amending Resolution 2020-92, as required by the California
Department of Housing and Community Development, authorizing the Director of
Community Housing and Economic Development, and the Deputy Director of
Housing and Homelessness to execute the Permanent Local Allocation Program
documents, and amending the Permanent Local Housing Allocation Funds Section
302 (c)(4) plan.
2.Authorize termination of the Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program
Subrecipient Agreement between the City of San Bernardino and Step Up on
Second Street, Inc.
Background
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) released
a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) of approximately $335 million for the
Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) program. Funding for the NOFA is
provided according to Senate Bill 2. Senate Bill 2 was signed into law by Governor
Brown on September 29, 2017, and took effect January 1, 2018. It creates a $75 fee
on certain real estate transaction documents when they are recorded, capped at $225
per transaction. The fee does not apply to sales of residential and commercial
properties but instead to other transactions like mortgage refinancing and county fixture

filings.
Senate Bill (SB) 2 established the Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund so that 70
percent of the fees collected would be deposited into the Fund, beginning in 2019, and
allocated to local governments for eligible housing activities. The intent of SB 2 is to
provide a permanent source of funding to local governments for housing-related
projects and programs that address the unmet housing needs in their communities.
On May 20, 2020, the Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution 2020-92 approving
the PLHA funds Section 302(c)(4) Plan based on the City’s 5-Year Consolidated Plan.
On October 21, 2020, the City was awarded an estimated five-year allocation not to
exceed $9,732,162.
On March 11, 2021, the City approved a PLHA Subrecipient Agreement (Agreement)
with Step Up On Second Street, Inc. (Subrecipient), not to exceed $107,432, to assist
persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness within the City. On September 21,
2022, the City approved an amendment to extend the term of the agreement to allow
additional time to expend the PLHA funds. To date, the Subrecipient has expended
$29,363.
Subsequently, on October 27, 2022, CED presented a Homeless Workshop utilizing
data obtained from the 2022 San Bernardino County Continuum of Care Homeless
Count and Survey Final Report (Report), to align with the Homeless Strategy presented
to HCD, which requires an amendment to the allocation plan.
Discussion
The PLHA program requires the City to submit a 5-year allocation plan based on
eligible activities:
1. The predevelopment, development, acquisition, rehabilitation, and preservation of
multifamily, residential live-work, and rental housing that is affordable to extremely
low-, very low-, low-, or moderate-income households, including necessary
operating subsidies.
2. The predevelopment, development, acquisition, rehabilitation, and preservation of
Affordable rental and ownership housing, including Accessory Dwelling Units
(ADUs), that meets the needs of a growing workforce earning up to 120 percent of
AMI, or 150 percent of AMI in high-cost areas. ADUs shall be available for
occupancy for a term of no less than 30 days.
3. Matching portions of funds placed into Local or Regional Housing Trust Funds.
4. Matching portion of available through the Low- and Moderate-Income Housing
Asset Fund according to subdivision 9d) of HSC Section 34176.
5. Capitalized Reserves for Services connected to the preservation and creation of
new permanent supportive housing.

In late September/early October of 2022, Step-Up requested the City terminate the
agreement. The Director stated the organization was attempting to bolster its outreach
team, but they were unable to do so, and Step-Up no longer needed the funding. In
response to Step-Up’s request City staff will return to Council with a funding
recommendation for the outstanding balance of $78,070.
To better focus on the immediate need to achieve the goals outlined in the City’s
Homeless Strategy, the approved allocation plan from May 20, 2020, will be amended
to reallocate funds from Activities 1 and 2 to Activity 6. The 2019 allocation will now be
as follows:

This will make funds available to assist persons who are experiencing or at risk of
homelessness. Activity 6 allows the City to provide funding to local service providers
that offer rapid rehousing, rental assistance, emergency shelter, and transitional
housing activities, as well as towards the proposed navigation center.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
Amending the spending plan for the PLHA program aligns with Key Target No. 1:
Improved Operational and Financial Capacity, by securing a permanent funding
allocation for housing and Key Target No. 3: Improved Quality of Life, by securing
additional funds to reduce the burden of homelessness through engagement,
collaboration, and alignment with other entities.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact on the General Fund associated with this report.

Background
Community Facilities Districts (CFDs) are a type of special tax district formed when
property owners within a geographic area agree to impose an additional tax on property
in order to fund infrastructure improvements or services in their specific geographic
area.
The City Council has previously formed Community Facilities District Nos. 2018-1
(Safety Services), 2018-2 (Verdemont Ranch), 2019-1 (Maintenance Services), 2020-
1 (Rancho Palma), 2021-1 (Ferree Street), and 2022-2 (Palm), and adopted
ordinances authorizing the levy of special taxes within each Community Facilities
District.
Discussion
The special tax levies upon properties within Community Facilities District Nos. 2018-
2, 2020-1, 2021-1, and 2022-2 provide the revenue to pay the cost of facilities or to
pay debt service on bonds which may be issued for those community facilities districts.
The special tax levies on properties within Community Facilities District Nos. 2018-1
and 2019-1 provide the revenue to pay the cost of safety services (in the case of
Community Facilities District No. 2018-1), and to pay the costs of maintenance
services (in the case of Community Facilities’ District No. 2019-1). The amount of the
assessments which are proposed to be levied on all parcels of assessable land within
each Community Facilities District has been determined pursuant to the Rate and
Method of Apportionment of Special Tax for each Community Facilities District.
Adoption of the Resolutions are required in order to levy the special taxes in
accordance with the requirements of the County of San Bernardino and the State of
California. These Resolutions set the maximum FY 2023/24 CFD tax rates, which have
been determined pursuant to the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax
for each Community Facilities District.

Fiscal Impact
There is no General Fund impact associated with this action.
The special tax levies upon properties within Community Facilities District Nos. 2018-
2, 2020-1, 2021-1, and 2022-2 provide the revenue to pay the cost of facilities or to pay
debt service on bonds which may be issued for those community facilities districts. The
special tax levies on properties within Community Facilities District Nos. 2018-1 and
2019-1 provide the revenue to pay the cost of safety services (in the case of Community
Facilities District No. 2018-1), and to pay the costs of maintenance services (in the
case of Community Facilities District No. 2019-1).

Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, Interim City Manager;
Barbara Whitehorn, Agency Director of Administrative Services
Department:Finance
Subject:Appropriation of AQMD Funds for Vanpool Program
(All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to appropriate a total
of $37,000 using the AB2788 Air Quality fund; and,
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-104 authorizing the Agency Director of
Administrative Services to amend the FY 2022/23 and FY 2023/24 Operating
Budget by $13,000 and $24,000, respectively.
Background
The South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) adopted Assembly Bill 2766
(“AB 2766”) in 1990 to provide a revenue stream for programs to reduce air pollution
from motor vehicles and for related planning, monitoring, enforcement, and technical
studies. State law, H&S Code Section 44223, authorizes the Department of Motor
Vehicles to collect a registration surcharge of $4 per vehicle to fund the AB 2766
Subvention Fund Program. The AB 2766 revenue is distributed by the South Coast Air
Quality Management District on a quarterly basis to the 162 participating cities and
counties in the South Coast Air Basin based on their pro-rated share of the total
population. Annual reports on the use of the funds and the results of programs
implemented are to be submitted to the South Coast AQMD, usually by the 1st Friday
of each February. Audits of local government programs are performed at least every
two years.
Discussion
AB 2766 funds provide opportunities for the City to invest in ways that improve the air
quality of the community. Using AB 2766 funds to offer Vanpool Services to City of San
Packet Pg. 459

Bernardino employees is one such opportunity. The Commuter Vanpool Program
provides a viable alternative to driving alone, aiding in the reduction of traffic
congestion, total vehicle miles traveled, and contributing to improved commute times
and better air quality. The City is required to meet the standards of the federal and
state Clean Air Act to qualify for subvention program funding, and this program is an
eligible use of the AB 2766 funds.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The implementation of a Vanpool Services Program aligns with Key Target No.
1d: Improved Operational and Financial Capacity – Create a framework for spending
decisions. This program also aligns with Key Target No. 1e: Minimize risk and litigation
exposure by providing City staff with a safer work environment due to the
implementation of an eco-friendly ride-share program.
Fiscal Impact
There is no General Fund impact associated with this action.
A total of $37,000 is requested to be appropriated from the AB 2766 (AQMD) Fund,
$13,000 for FY 2022/23 and $24,000 for 2023/24.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to appropriate a total
of $37,000 using the AB2766 Air Quality fund; and,
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-104 authorizing the Agency Director of
Administrative Services to amend the FY 2022/23 and FY 2023/24 Operating
Budget by $13,000 and $24,000, respectively.

Subject:Review of Administrative Budget Transfers (All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, review and file all listed administrative budget transfers from April 1, 2023
through June 30, 2023.
Background
On May 4, 2022, the Mayor and City Council adopted Ordinance No. MC-1568, which
amended Section 3.05.010 in the Municipal Code regarding budget transfers.
Specifically, the amendment to the ordinance nullified the not-to-exceed amount of
$25,000 per budget transfer; authorized the Director of Finance to approve budget
transfers within a department’s personnel budget into their operating budget;
authorized the Director of Finance to approve department-to-department budget
transfers; established that budget transfers will not increase or decrease a
department’s approved budget, nor will it increase or decrease the approved fund
budget without council approval; and stated that any cumulative amount of more than
$5,000 transferred between departments in a 12-month period must be reported to the
Mayor and City Council during the regular Quarterly Report.
Discussion
Budget transfers are requests received by Finance from departments to move the
budget from one account to another after the adoption of the original budget. Transfers
occur when a department needs to correct its originally adopted budget or move the
budget to accommodate a change in a department’s planned expenditures. When
processing budget transfers, Finance verifies that the transfer properly allocates
Packet Pg. 464

resources based on the strategic objectives and goals set forth by the Mayor and City
Council and reflects the priorities of the community.
The table below provides the list of the administrative transfers that have been
processed.
Date of Transfer Departments Impacted Credit (Decrease)Debit (Increase)
4/3/2023 General Gov to CED $(4,000,000.00)$4,000,000.00
4/19/2023 PW to CED $(284,111.26)$284,111.26
5/11/2023 CM to Parks $(2,303.00)$2,303.00
6/8/2023 CM to HR $(28,500.00)$28,500.00
The transfer from General Government to Community and Economic Development
was to support the Small Business & Non-Profit Assistance program and the Small
Business Resource Center. This budget was appropriated into the incorrect
department; the transfer from General Government to CED was to move the budgeted
amount, approved by the Mayor and City Council, into the correct department.
The transfer from Public Works to Community and Economic Development was to
account for the Real Property Division moving from PW to CED. This budget transfer
moved all salaries and benefit budgets associated with Real Property from Public
Works into CED.
The transfer from City Manager to Parks and Recreation was to support the costs for
the Sister City program.
The transfer from City Manager to Human Resources was to support the cost of the
executive recruitment firm for a City Manager.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
Authorization of this file and receiving item aligns with three of the adopted 2021-2025
Key Strategic Targets and Goals. Finance reporting on departmental administrative
budget transfers completed within the quarter that meet the requirements of the Mayor
and City Council helps Improved Operational & Financial Capacity by effectively
creating a framework for spending decisions. Administering budget transfers meets
the Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community goal by developing and
implementing a community engagement plan where the community and staff actively
adapt to ensure needs of the community are fulfilled. Improved Quality of Life is met
by ensuring that service levels are funded proactively to integrate customer-service
orientation and metrics into all City operations.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact to the City.

City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, City Manager
By: Lydie Gutfeld, Director of Parks, Recreation and
Community Services
Department:Parks & Recreation & Community Services
Subject:2022-2025 Retired and Senior Volunteer Program
(RSVP) – 2nd year of a 3-year Grant Award (All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-105 approving a continuation of submitted budget
application for year two of a three-year grant through the National and Community
Services Retired and Senior Volunteer Program;
2. Authorize the City Manager to accept the grant award in the amount of $54,809;
and
3. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative services to amend the budget to
appropriate the grant funds for the period of April 1, 2023, through March 31, 2024.
Background
The City has participated in the federally funded Retired and Senior Volunteer Program
(RSVP) for 49 years. The RSVP program provides funds for staff to organize and
direct the Work Plans of the volunteer program. The RSVP staff member(s) recruit
volunteers, select work sites, make site visits, and prepare reports to meet grant
requirements. RSVP senior-age volunteers perform various service activities within
the community under various MOUs, with one of the larger commitments with local law
enforcement as Citizens on Patrol (COP) volunteers.
RSVP volunteers do not receive pay, but they can request up to $30 per quarter as
reimbursement for their transportation expenses, which is paid out of grant funds.
RSVP volunteers serve up to forty hours a week providing support for senior lunch
programs, local non-profits, community centers, and hospitals and providing disaster
preparedness with the California Highway Patrol and San Bernardino County Sheriff’s
Packet Pg. 503
Department.
Volunteers play an essential role in connecting with the community while also
preserving resources for organizations. An estimated 23.2% of Americans, or more
than 60.7 million people, formally volunteered with sponsored organizations between
September 2020 and 2021. In total, these volunteers served an estimated 4.1 billion
hours with an economic value of $122.9 billion. This grant enables the City to continue
providing services for individuals ages 55 years and older to put their skills and life
experience to work for their communities.
On March 9, 2022, staff received notice for the first of three-year grant award in the
amount of $54,809.00 which was used for the program operations as outlined in the
grant agreement.
Discussion
On March 23, 2023, staff received the Notice of Grant Award letter from the Corporation
for National and Community Service (CNCS) for an amount of $54,809. This funding
would work to continue services provided by RSVP. The second year of a 3-year grant
cycle (2022-2025) with the AmeriCorps Senior program, administered by the CNCS
will end March 31, 2024. This past year, 108 participants contributed 18,186 hours.
The City provides matching funds for the RSVP program in the amount of $96,723 for
a portion of the salaries and fringe benefits of personnel and program costs. This grant
match funding is budgeted in Parks, Recreations and Community Services operating
budget. The City also provides an in-kind contribution in the amount of $1,158 for the
cost of utilities for the program’s office space.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
Adoption of this Resolution aligns with Strategic Target No. 2: Focused, Aligned
Leadership and Unified Community by building a culture that attracts, retains, and
motivates the highest quality of volunteers for the program; and Strategic Target No.
3: Improved Quality of Life which allows volunteers to stay active and engaged in their
local communities through their services and benefits the growth of the community
members themselves.
Fiscal Impact
There is no further General Fund fiscal impact associated with this item as the grant
match has already been budgeted. The Biennial FY2022/23-24 Budget will be
amended by $54,809 in both revenues and expenditures for no net impact to the
General Fund.
Conclusion

Executive Summary
Strengthening Communities
The City of San Bernardino RSVP proposes to have a total of 296 AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers who
will support transportation programs, companionship programs, nutrition programs, senior services,
Citizens on Patrol with the San Bernardino County Sheriff¿s Department, and California Highway
Patrol (CHP). The primary focus areas of this project is Healthy futures. At the end of the three-year
grant, AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers will be responsible for a minimum of 54 students and/or
socially isolated reporting they have gotten better grades and/or are feeling less lonely. The
AmeriCorps federal investment of $54,809 will be supplemented by the City of San Bernardino's
match amount of $80,804 excluding excess funds.
The county of San Bernardino, in which the San Bernardino RSVP operates, is the largest County in
the geographical United States. It spans over 400 square miles and the County¿s 2,180,085
inhabitants the AmeriCorps Senior, San Bernardino RSVP will serve cities with a total population of
approximately 747,519 as of 2019 from the US Census Bureau. The communities in the service area
are known as the Inland Empire, High Desert, and San Bernardino Mountains. This area of San
Bernardino County has a higher unemployment rate, a higher poverty rate ranging from 10.3% to
35.3% across these communities, a higher high school drop-out rate, and a lower median family
income level at an average of $ 53,967 than the rest of the State and the Nation. In late 2019, the
Corona Virus disease outbreak affected the United States and all around the world in more ways than
one. A ¿Stay At Home'' order took place as a community mitigation strategy to reduce the spread of
the virus in the country. To clarify the Governor's ¿Stay-At-Home'' order, California Acting State
Health Officer, Eric Pan had issued a 10:00 p.m.-to-5:00 a.m. limited ¿stay at home¿ order on
November 20th, 2020. The order was effective the next day, November 21, for the 41 of 58 California
counties under the Purple Tier of California¿s Blueprint for a Safer Economy, which included San
Bernardino County. According to the CDC, this public health practice caused States and territories that
issued mandatory stay-at-home orders implications such as decreased population movement. The San
Bernardino RSVP service area experienced a reduction of activities and close person-to-person contact
outside the household. The community served were made up almost entirely of older adults, aged 50
or higher, and were found to be the most susceptible to this disease. As a result, members of the
community were left with no other option than to take the precautionary measures needed to combat
the spread of the virus. To combat this we have implemented the PAL program on a grander scale and

Recruitment and Development
created an opportunity with School on Wheels to provide remote tutoring through Zoom. PAL is a
program designed to maintain contact with the socially isolated members of the community through
scheduled phone calls from assigned volunteers. Many individuals felt lonely before the pandemic and
even more faced severe isolation during it. It was important to continue the practice of safe social
distancing during this time, so volunteers will be making the phone calls from home. This allows
individuals to remain independent while still gaining the social support provided in a friendly phone
call. School on Wheels is an LA-based program that has moved to the Inland Empire and provides
tutoring and mentorship to homeless K-12 children. The opportunity to tutor has been on hold for the
past year, but are moving the tutoring online for the safety of the volunteers and the children.
Children use their school or library computers and connect with volunteers who have access to a
home computer and high-speed internet. In the partnership with the City of San Bernardino
AmeriCorps Senior RSVP, we have offered access to the computers at local senior centers, and the
program is purchasing web cameras to open up the ability of our low-income senior volunteers to
tutor and mentor these children in need. This will help support both companionship for the children,
but also the volunteer who may feel isolated in these trying times. Partnering with the Jack L. Hill
Lifelong Learning Center which is located in the city¿s public library will also be a volunteer
opportunity for us to focus on academic success for those seeking homework help. These tutoring
sessions can either be done in person or online as well. The San Bernardino RSVP will be assisting this
Literacy program by providing them with the utmost qualified volunteers. Opening the Senior Center
Garden is also a way to welcome back the volunteers after a long time of being away from the center.
Volunteers enjoy the small luxury of having their garden to tend since many of them live in senior
living homes that lack this amenity. Most importantly, they can connect with nature and with each
other in a very open outdoor space, relieving stress while doing so. The new volunteer opportunities
being presented in the San Bernardino RSVP service areas are an approach to maintaining healthy
futures for independent living.
Recruitment is completed through a variety of avenues, including community centers, posting on
social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, All for Good, 211, a quarterly newsletter for
the volunteers and volunteer sites, flyers, special events, street banners, and the City of San
Bernardino website. As we rebuild our program after the changes COVID-19 has made to our
program we will be working with our partners to find new ways to recruit volunteers as time goes on.
The San Bernardino RSVP plan and infrastructure to ensure volunteers receive the training needed to
Packet Pg. 511

be highly effective has been in effect for years with the San Bernardino County Sheriff¿s Department,
California Highway Patrol, Loma Linda VA, City of San Bernardino Literacy Program at Norman
Feldheym Central Library, City of San Bernardino Senior Nutrition Program. Senior Centers and
School on Wheels. Training ranges from 4 hours for the City of San Bernardino Senior Nutrition
Program to 40 hours with the California Highway Patrol and San Bernardino County Sheriff¿s
Department. Additional training is provided throughout the year and as needed. We have found that
training on-site provides a more highly effective and fulfilled volunteer and encourages a ¿best fit¿
placement.
While the PAL (Phone Alert League) program has sparked interest in many volunteers, both old and
new, a call list of individuals that need social connection will be required to fulfill its purpose. The staff
has created flyers, brochures, and even aired a public service announcement on a local television
channel through the city¿s media group to raise awareness of the program to gain both volunteers
and ¿clients¿. The efforts made were successful in recruiting eager volunteers for this program, but
staff will now be going into senior living complexes within the service areas to connect with the actual
individuals in need of this service.
The Advisory Council of Senior Programs is being revamped so that the members of the council are
primarily made up of members of the community who would like to be involved and genuinely care
for the success of both programs. To find these proactive individuals, staff will promote the Advisory
Council of Senior Programs to college campuses and community centers through flyers, and will also
be engaging in city programs such as ¿Coffee with a Cop¿, where members of the community come
together and discuss community topics of interest. Rebuilding the council with devoted members can
ensure we find the perfect match for the program¿s development. The Advisory Council of Senior
Programs will be expected to help recruit volunteers, fundraise, event plan, and even administrate
posts on social media. In exchange, we offer members of the Advisory Council of Senior Programs
extensive leadership skills and experience with an organization that they can utilize to build their
resumes. Through networking on social media and at other community events held within the year,
we can partner with other proactive groups whose goal is also to support an underserved population.
Advisory Council meetings are held quarterly, so to welcome the community at large, these meetings
will be listed on the city¿s calendar which can be viewed on the city¿s website (www.SbCity.org).
Staff also hosts an RSVP booth at the Inland Empire Senior Games Health and Senior Resource Fair.
This is an annual event that is open to the public and offers the community a wide range of different
Packet Pg. 512

Narratives
services and resources which allows staff to engage with new faces and enlighten them with the many
benefits of joining RSVP. Also in conjunction with the City of San Bernardino Parks, Recreation, and
Community Services Department RSVP staff and volunteers are participants in the Veterans Day
Parade and Resource Fair each November 11th. As events open up RSVP staff are working with
community partners to become more prominent in the community as part of the rebranding of the
program.
THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED AND PLANS TO RECRUIT A
VOLUNTEER POOL REFLECTIVE OF THE COMMUNITY SERVED:
The City of San Bernardino is partnering with local Hispanic and African American organizations to
recruit minority volunteers from which we have larger populations to pull from. Staff is also using
resources such as Google translator to communicate with the volunteers who speak different
languages from our own.
Promoting diversity and inclusion in the recruitment of volunteers starts with the uniqueness of staff.
The San Bernardino RSVP is organized by different backgrounds instead of one type of person. Having
a workforce that contains a diversity of age, marital status, work habits, educational backgrounds,
race, socioeconomic status, points of view, and cultural interests, creates an environment that allows
all kinds of different volunteers to succeed in service and contribute meaningfully. Based on this, the
volunteer pool includes people from different backgrounds and is included in a way that goes beyond
avoiding discrimination. The program actively involves people from different backgrounds and
empowers them to be a part of RSVP. Recognizing the potential in every person no matter their
religious belief, ethnicity, or gender brings a sense of belonging to everyone. That is why a diverse
range of volunteer opportunities are offered because different kinds of people are attracted to different
kinds of roles that require different kinds of skill sets as well as different time commitments.
Individuals with disabilities can serve right in the comfort of their homes, serving the role of a phone
alert league.
Recruiting from individuals who use the community¿s services, such as but not limited to community
food distribution, PAL, and senior nutrition. It¿s a very natural desire among many to want to give
back to those that give to us. This strategy welcomes those with different socioeconomic backgrounds,
disabilities, and immigration statuses to join forces with the San Bernardino RSVP.
PLAN AND INFRASTRUCTURE TO RETAIN AND RECOGNIZE THE RSVP VOLUNTEERS
To retain volunteers, project staff administers the San Bernardino RSVP service satisfaction survey to
Packet Pg. 513

Program Management
gather information once a year regarding the volunteer¿s level of satisfaction with RSVP in general, as
well as their volunteer station sites. All input is reviewed by the RSVP Program Manager and all areas
of dissatisfaction and satisfaction are addressed as able. Monthly birthday and occasional greeting
cards will be sent out as a way to personally connect and build a good rapport with volunteers. The
San Bernardino RSVP holds an annual RSVP Recognition Luncheon for all volunteers. Each
volunteer is recognized for their years of volunteer service, which includes a full lunch, awards given
for years of service, goodie bags, and raffle prizes for the attendees as able. To have more volunteers
attend the recognition, two separate recognition events are held, one in the High Desert and one in the
Inland Empire. What was once an annual newsletter will now be a quarterly newsletter to keep
volunteers up to date with events and news. This was a decision made by staff so that volunteers can
have more to look forward to throughout the year. In the quarterly newsletter, volunteers are profiled
and recognized for their outstanding community service achievements. The San Bernardino RSVP will
also be participating in the city¿s 21st Annual Veteran¿s Salute and Parade organized by the Parks,
Recreation, and Community Development Services Department. This is an opportunity that
showcases the dual honor of serving our veterans as well as serving beside them in the program.
Understanding that volunteer service contributes millions of dollars to the economy is one of the top
reasons why the San Bernardino RSVP invests in its volunteers in return. Creating the ¿RSVP Brand
Ambassador¿ to represent the organization not only helps shape the direction of the program but also
happens to motivate the volunteer to be just as invested in our outcomes. The ambassador role is
meant for volunteers who are exceptionally skilled in recruiting other volunteers. At times, they¿ll be
invited to help promote our organization at fairs, sites, and anywhere they feel is a great area to find
potential volunteers. Reaching a sense of high importance will allow the ambassador to appreciate the
opportunity to help the San Bernardino RSVP grow.
Each volunteer station is required to complete a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The MOU
of the San Bernardino RSVP lists the expectations of the volunteer station to align it with program
regulations. Program staff works to cultivate a positive open relationship with volunteer site
supervisors. Through routine station visits and direct interaction in the programs at the volunteer
sites, the program staff guides work assignments to help prevent or identify prohibited activities. These
visits are recorded on monitoring report forms with a follow-up action plan if corrective measures are
warranted. The San Bernardino RSVP Volunteer Policies and Procedures Handbook is made available
to all volunteers and volunteer stations which also provides additional clarification of the rules and
Packet Pg. 514

Narratives
regulations. As new regulations are introduced to the AmeriCorps Senior RSVP Program there is
training through pamphlets or in-person training as needed. The RSVP Manager or Assistant
schedules visits face-to-face, phone, or over Zoom on a routine basis, as well as case-by-case as
needed. Communication with volunteers at their volunteer stations is another crucial part of the plan
to track compliance with AmeriCorps Senior RSVP regulations. Direct observation of volunteer
activities as we are able gives insight into the impact the volunteers provide for the community.
The plan and infrastructure to ensure that volunteers are on target with their volunteer assignments
are centered on weekly contact by the San Bernardino RSVP staff, supported by a written log, in/out
process, and phone messaging system. The key to this communication success is to have volunteer site
work with the San Bernardino RSVP staff to create complete and verifiable volunteer assignment
descriptions that spell out clear volunteer performance expectations with time-sensitive deadlines.
With the input, the San Bernardino RSVP staff work with Volunteer Site staff to build new programs
or revamp existing programs to fit with the needs of the community and the San Bernardino RSVP
national performance measures outcomes. All volunteer¿s, service activities, hours, mileage, and
volunteer site stations information are tracked through timesheets and MOUs which are inputted into
a database for easy recall and data point retention through the Volunteer Reporter, version 6.7.
As stated in the San Bernardino RSVP policies and procedures: When making changes to volunteer
stations to meet the changing needs of the community, San Bernardino RSVP staff will do all that
possible to minimize the disruption to current volunteers and volunteer stations where able. (1) All
current volunteers will be offered a new volunteer assignment within the San Bernardino RSVP
realigned volunteer stations. (2) All current volunteers will be given the training and materials needed
to make the move to their new volunteer assignment as smooth as possible. (3) Current volunteers
who wish to remain with the graduates will be separated from the San Bernardino RSVP will continue
to volunteer with their current volunteer station, without any benefits provided by the San Bernardino
RSVP. (4) All stations which have been graduated will be provided with the contact information of
another local volunteer organization, such as Volunteers of America, to help them meet the need of
their respective program.
The San Bernardino RSVP and SCP programs have joined to form one advisory council to support the
needs of both programs. The advisory council disbanded due to COVID-19 restrictions, but as
restrictions are relaxed we are hoping to get it up and going again. The advisory council meets
quarterly, with the RSVP Program assistant acting as the staff liaison for all meetings. We are looking
for members from both programs, volunteer sites, and the community at large. With the input from
Packet Pg. 515

Organizational Capability
the advisory council, the Program Managers direct the direction of the San Bernardino RSVP
Program. The advisory council also does all fundraising for the two programs and they are expanding
our recruitment profile in the communities we serve. An advisory council handbook has been created
to ensure that all regulations of the advisory council are being met.
The city of San Bernardino operates under a hybrid Mayor-Council-City Manager form of
government. The Mayor is elected by the voters at large and is the CEO of the City; City Council by
their respective wards; and the City Manager is appointed and is the Chief Administrative Officer. The
Department of Parks, Recreation, and Community Services directly oversees the RSVP project,
whereas the Finance Department¿s sole purpose is the application and enforcement of sound fiscal
management practices and procedures regarding all city services. All-City Departments follow audited
public common practice financial policies and procedures as outlined in the City¿s Financial
Operations Manual. They are all subject to Council approval and are maintained by the Finance and
City Managers Departments. The City¿s program-based 2022-2023 Fiscal Year operates July 1st
through June 30th of the following year. The Finance Department is one of 14 city departments that
act as the centralized and formal means of disseminating Cost Principle Guidelines, as well as
Administrative Guidelines and Audit Guidelines to the rest of the city departments/divisions. The City
maintains a high level of checks and balances in its fiscal management systems, including a hierarchy
review and approval process designed to ensure accurate budget management and a timely fiscal
reporting system for the Senior Services Division of the Department. The City utilizes a reliable and
audited service delivery system that has effectively met or exceeded all prior years¿ performance
objectives of AmeriCorps Senior.
The City¿s Purchasing Division assists all departments in ensuring that internal procedures are in
place for all accounts payable and receivables. Budget development and use are administered by the
Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Department staff and further supported by the Finance
Department Staff, especially for travel and mileage reimbursements for volunteers, and City
Manager¿s Office. All project resources-both financial and in-kind are managed through policies and
procedures set in place by the City of San Bernardino Finance Department; and are outlined in the
Municipal Code 3.0 ¿ Purchasing System. All purchases are tracked by the use of a purchase order
after the need has been determined, available funds have been verified and quotes have been obtained
from local vendors to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor. All purchase orders
are submitted with proper documentation to be approved by the program staff supervisor and Director
Packet Pg. 516

Narratives
of the department. They are then forwarded onto the Finance Department who will once again review
all submitted documents and determine budget availability for approval and seek City Manager, City
Attorney, and Mayor and Common Council approvals as warranted. From there the purchase order is
delivered to the vendor for services or materials to be received. Invoices for services or materials are
then matched to the PO and processed through Accounts Payable in the Finance Department. All in-
kind services, materials, and financial support for the program are tracked through receipts and
deposit verification forms, subject to internal and external auditing, which, in turn, are issued via
input into the City¿s New World financial management system. In-kind donations are managed by
program staff through a process of documentation, tracking, and use.
Clearly defined roles are in place to secure the integrity of the City and all its many partners. The City
Manager¿s Office oversees most city services, including that of the RSVP and all grant-funded
programs. In addition to other support staff, the Finance Department provides several Accountant
positions (Annie Clark) whose duties are to maintain records of revenue and expense; examine
supporting documentation to establish proper authorization and conformance with agreements,
contracts, and state and federal regulations; and compile and prepare routine accounting schedules
and reports.
The Department of Parks, Recreation, and Community Services directly administers the RSVP project.
From top-down, the Director/Department Head (Lydie Gutfeld) supervises the Community
Recreation Manager (Mitch Assumma), who supervises the RSVP Manager (Nicolette Wilson), we are
currently in the process of trying to hire a PT staff member to assist with the program. The Director
of the Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Department reports to the City Manager. The
RSVP Manager, Nicolette Wilson, has over 6years working with the San Bernardino Parks, Recreation
and Community Services Department starting as a Summer Lunch Program monitor, which was
federally funded; a leader and coordinator for the ¿Creative Before & Afterschool Program¿ (C.A.P.S),
which is a state-funded grant program; and then as a Community Center supervisor, managing staff,
planning programs, planning special events, and working with the public. Ms. Wilson transitioned to

Reporter version 6.9 which is used to track volunteers, volunteer service activities, volunteer hours,
and mileage, and volunteer sites information as well as many other duties as needed. Ms. Wilson has
worked to build up the advisory council with new members throughout the communities we serve
and has spearheaded the expansion of the PAL Program. The volunteers enjoy the youthful
personality she brings to the program. The Community Recreation Manager (Mitch Assumma) has
administered the RSVP in San Bernardino for over ten years, and he has over 30 years of experience
in managing municipal services in the parks and recreation field, along with a Master¿s Degree in
Public Administration. He has managed many grants and sponsorships in this professional tenure.
The Director of Parks, Recreation and Community is responsible for the activities of its human
resource, including recruitment, training, promotion, and retention; establishment of daily work
schedules and routines, budget development and use; and communication of performance outcomes.
The City of San Bernardino fiscal management procedures, including budget control, accounting
systems, cash and banking procedures, payroll systems, and internal auditing, are operated, managed,
and controlled through the City of San Bernardino Finance Department. The budget process is
facilitated and administered annually via the Mayor, City Council, and City Administration. Variances
in budgeted expenses are analyzed by the City Manager and Finance Departments. Reports on such
data are disseminated quarterly. Individual City departments manage their budget and each
Department Head is accountable to the City Manager. An independent auditor reviews city financial
records annually.
The 5th Street Senior Center houses both the Senior Companion Program and the Retired Senior and
Volunteer Program, which is funded through the City¿s General Fund as the match. The 5th Street
Senior Center is ADA compliant and is currently being used for senior services administration, training
and meetings, senior lunch meals, community programs, special interest classes, and group rentals.
The Center is fully outfitted with tables, chairs, furniture, kitchen equipment for full meal preparation,
sound and PA system, and office management. All health and safety OSHA requirements are
followed. The City¿s Facilities Division of the Public Works Department maintains all building
maintenance. Equipment and supplies are purchased as needed through the City¿s chain of
command, utilizing best practice principles.
The City of San Bernardino as a municipal government operates under the State of California Code.
The City of San Bernardino has managed RSVP for over 40 years and followed all grant requirements
successfully in that long duration. Furthermore, the City has tightened all financial management
systems and practices considerably since officially exiting Chapter 9 Bankruptcy in 2017. The City of

San Bernardino Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Department is constantly seeking
alternative finding resources in support of their community-serving mission. The detailed list below

The City of San Bernardino RSVP in particular has met or exceeded its required non-federal financial
share of the project every year of the past 46 years of funding. The percentage of the cities non-federal
financial share or match the past five years has been: 2017 ¿ 2018: 48.6%, 2018 ¿ 2019: 52.6%, 2019 ¿
2020: 54.3%, 2020 ¿ 2021: 54.3%, 2021 ¿ 2022: 55.8%. This match is reflected through the in-kind
contribution of space in-kind as well as matching funds to help support project personnel expenses and
fringe benefits, supplies, volunteer travel, insurance, and recognition.
The RSVP program is incorporating Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Access into the Program
through its Volunteer Recruitment Plan in several ways. The City will try to recruit in a manner that
matches the City's current census demographics in the areas of national origin, spoken language,
gender orientation, and income. Additional efforts to recruit for volunteers of Hispanic and low-
income backgrounds (ie. promotional material in Spanish, advertising to multi-family dwellings,
presentations to various religious facilities, the Hispanic and African Chambers of Commerce, etc.) is
in progress. In addition, DEIA topics will be added to the agenda of all training opportunities,
especially the Quarterly Meets whereby guest speakers or representatives from an organization or
agency with a DEIA mission can provide dialogue promoting greater awareness of these issues. We
are also looking to establish new MOU's within the community who are of a more diverse
background, for example, Women's clubs and churches, to not only increase volunteer numbers but
also promote those work site activities. We currently host Senior Advisory Council meetings monthly
and will be seeking their input for ways to expand our DEIA objectives. Furthermore, the RSVP
Coordinator will be encouraged to seek out other DEIA training opportunities (workshops, reading
materials), including that offered by the California Parks and Recreation Society, to share with our
senior volunteers. Making a greater DEIA fingerprint in our Program is a challenge as many of the

foundations of volunteerism have been etched at by the effects of COVID-19 (isolationism, avoidance
of public contact), high inflation, aging of the population and average volunteer age exceeding 70
years of age, transportation disparities, extended family care demands (childcare providers to
grandchildren with no time for others), to name the most prevalent concerns. We are also hoping to
find solutions to better retain senior-age volunteers in active Program service (free bus passes,
distribution of PPE, refer no cost family resource services, provide personal health and safety care
education, etc.).

help individuals in need of social connection across our service areas.
Primary Focus Area: Healthy Futures Objective: Aging in Place
Community needs: As an approach to fulfill the community’s need for social engagement and interaction during the CoronaVirus pandemic, the
city of San Bernardino’s RSVP program has reintroduced the Phone Alert League (PAL). Due to California’s state regulations for safe social
distancing, many seniors in the surrounding communities lost access to many resources and services that were once provided to them and ended
up becoming socially isolated from society, increasing the number of people who are now suffering from loneliness. This will provide a volunteer
opportunity that is safe for both the volunteer and the community. The county of San Bernardino’s census from July 2019 showed a record of
11.9% of its population as persons who are of the age of 65 years and up. A recent study from the NIH shows that the elderly are more prone to
developing signs of depression and decreased mental health well-being. As people age, they find themselves spending more time alone, which
can make them more vulnerable to social isolation which can be associated with cognitive decline. Our goal is to try and help seniors so that they
can live a more independent life by providing them with supportive and meaningful social connections. Many seniors find that when they can look
forward to receiving a friendly call as often as requested, they can feel a part of society by engaging in conversations about current events within
the community. A survey will be used to determine the effectiveness of the calls being made to these individuals to learn if they feel less lonely
than before joining the program. An estimated number of 52 volunteers will be devoting 5 hours of their time weekly to at least 1 volunteer station
and will be expected to provide 13,520 hours every year, offering the community a value of $347,734 to help individuals in need of social connection
across our service areas.

The City of San Bernardino and surrounding areas currently have a large population of senior aged persons that are sick, shut in, socially isolated,
or doesn't have any family to do wellness checks or even provide resources for them. The number of that has increased since the start of the
Covid-19 pandemic. The PAL (Phone Alert League) program is a program set up for senior aged volunteers at our community centers, and they get
a phone list of other seniors that are socially isolated in their homes and conduct wellness calls, provides resources and information to them about
all the programs going on in the community to better support their quality of life.
Focus Area: Other Community Priorities Objective: Other
Community Need: San Bernardino RSVP volunteers will be able to address current community priorities through volunteer opportunities in places
like the Veterans Affairs Hospital, Senior Centers, Community Gardens, and Senior Nutrition Programs. Currently, about 34,626 inhabitants in this
service area are veterans, which is why RSVP volunteers will be supporting them through service at the Loma Linda VA Hospital through
companionship, food service, and transportation. About 12.6% of San Bernardino RSVP’s service area population are older adults 65 years and
older according to the 2019 Census Bureau. Volunteering in senior centers will bring older adults together who like to keep busy and help execute
the day-to-day functions and activities that are carried out through the centers. There are approximately 572,305 inhabitants within the service
area who live in poverty. Volunteers assist in programs such as Community Food Distributions, as well as Hygiene Packs, provided by
sponsors.RSVP volunteers support the Senior Nutrition Program in the Fifth Street Senior Center, Perris Hill Senior Center, and the Highland

Department:Police
Subject:Accept 2021 Homeland Security Grant (All Wards)
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,

Homeland Security Grant Program funds and
2. Authorize the Agency Director of Administrative Services to amend the Fiscal
Year 2023/24 Adopted Budget revenue and expenditures by $41,111.
Background
The City of San Bernardino is a participating jurisdiction in the Homeland Security
Grant Program. The purpose of the grant program is the support of state, local, tribal,
and territorial jurisdictions in the efforts toward preventing, protecting against,
mitigating, responding to, and recovering from acts of terrorism or other threats. The
Police Department has responsibility for this grant and has previously used HSGP
grant funds to improve its response capabilities toward terrorism events. The City
received $41,111 in HSGP funds for Fiscal Year 2021.
Discussion
The San Bernardino Police Department receives non-competitive formulary HSGP
funds as a sub-recipient of the County of San Bernardino. The County charges an
administrative fee of 5% and distributes the remaining grant funds among the cities
and towns within the County. Each city’s portion is determined on a per capita basis
and the City of San Bernardino’s award for FY2021 HSGP funds was $41,111.
The HSGP grant is designed to fund projects related to preparing for, responding to,
mitigating, and recovering from terrorism or other threats to homeland security. This
is a reimbursement grant that is awarded each year. The grant performance period
will last from July 1, 2022, through March 31, 2024. The Police Department will use
the grant funds to complete grant projects that comply with grant terms and goals.

Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Darren Goodman, Chief of Police
Department:Police
Subject:Authorize Agreement with Law Enforcement Medical
Services.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement
between Law Enforcement Services, Inc. and authorize an annual Purchase Order in
the amount of $100,000 effective July1st, 2023.
Background
The San Bernardino Police Department has contracted for medical evidence collection
services; phlebotomy, Taser dart removal, sexual assault exams, etc. for over twenty-five
years.
Medical evidence collection is critical to successful prosecution of driving under the
influence and felony assault cases. The County District Attorney may not proceed with
these types of cases without the medical evidence collected by licensed professionals.
Discussion
The Police Department has published formal bid request for medical evidence
collection services every three to five years, with the most current service agreement
having expired on June 30, 2023. The Police Department went to open bid in May 2023
and vendor was not selected until after June 30, 2023. Consequently, staff requests
that the effective agreement date on July 1st, 2023.
A notice inviting bids (RFP F-23-44) was published May 3, 2023 on the City’s
procurement site, Planet Bids. Law Enforcement Medical Services (LEMS) submitted
the sole bid received, included hereto in Attachment 2. LEMS has been the City’s
contract vendor for medical evidence collection since before 2000. Staff is
recommending a three-year professional services agreement with two one-year
renewal options with LEMS, included hereto in Attachment 1.
Packet Pg. 570
Beginning in FY23/FY24, medical evidentiary expenditures are expected to total
approximately $100,000. A portion of these expenditures are related to Sexual Assault
Response Team (SART) exams. The cost of these examinations has increased
significantly over the last three to four years; however, we have been advised that
these exam costs are recoverable through the Cal OES Victim Services Branch. The
Police Department anticipates recovering approximately $40,000 to $50,000 per fiscal
year of this total annual contract amount.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The contracting of services with Law Enforcement Medical Services, Inc., aligns with
Goal No. 3.c.- Constantly evaluate public safety service delivery models to enhance
the quality of service.
Fiscal Impact
The financial impact to the City is $100,000 per year. There is sufficient funding in the
FY23/FY24 Operating Budget to support this item.
Conclusion
In is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement
with Law Enforcement Services, Inc. and authorize an annual Purchase Order in the
amount of $100,000 effective July 1st, 2023.

City retains the sole discretion to cancel or modify any part of or all of this RFP at
any time.
J. Submittal Requirements
1. General: It is strongly recommended that the Proposer submit proposals
in the format identified in this RFP to allow the City to fully evaluate and compare the proposal.
All requirements and questions in the RFP should be addressed and all requested data should
be supplied. The City reserves the right to request additional information which, in the City’s
opinion, is necessary to assure that the Proposer’s competence, number of qualified employees,
business organization, and financial resources are adequate to perform according to the
Agreement.
2. Preparation: Proposals should be prepared in such a way as to provide a
straightforward, concise delineation of capabilities to satisfy the requirements of this RFP.
Responses should emphasize the Proposer’s demonstrated capability to perform the Services.
Expensive bindings and promotional materials, etc., are not necessary or desired. However,
technical literature that supports the approach to providing the Services and work plan should be
forwarded as part of the proposal. Emphasis should be concentrated on completeness, approach
to the work and clarity of proposal.
3. Site Examination: Proposers may visit the City and its physical facilities to
determine the local conditions which may in any way affect the performance of the work;
familiarize themselves with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and
codes affecting the performance of the work; make such investigations, as it may deem necessary
for performance of the Services at its proposal price within the terms of the Agreement; and
correlate its observations, investigations, and determinations with the requirements of the
Agreement.
4. Authorization: The proposal shall be signed by an individual, partner,
officer or officers authorized to execute legal documents on behalf of the Proposer.
5. Confidentiality of Proposal: Pursuant to Michaelis, Montanari, & Johnson
v. Superior Court (2006) 38 Cal.4th 1065, proposals submitted in response to this RFP shall be
held confidential by City and shall not be subject to disclosure under the California Public Records
Act (Cal. Government Code section 6250 et seq.) until after either City and the successful
Proposer have completed negotiations and entered into an Agreement or City has rejected all
proposals. All correspondence with the City including responses to this RFP shall become the
exclusive property of the City and shall become public records under the California Public Records
Attachment 2
Packet Pg. 600
10
Act. Furthermore, the City shall have no liability to the Proposer or other party as a result of any
public disclosure of any proposal or the Agreement.
If a Proposer desires to exclude a portion of its proposal from disclosure
under the California Public Records Act, the Proposer must mark it as such and
state the specific provision in the California Public Records Act which provides the
exemption as well as the factual basis for claiming the exemption. For example, if
a Proposer submits trade secret information, the Proposer must plainly mark the
information as “Trade Secret” and refer to the appropriate section of the California
Public Records Act which provides the exemption as well as the factual basis for
claiming the exemption. Although the California Public Records Act recognizes that
certain confidential trade secret information may be protected from disclosure, the
City may not be in a position to establish that the information that a Proposer
submits is a trade secret. If a request is made for information marked
“Confidential”, “Trade Secret” or “Proprietary” (“Proprietary Information”), the City
will provide Proposers who submitted the information with reasonable notice to
seek protection from disclosure by a court of competent jurisdiction. Proposer shall
have five (5) working days after receipt of such notice to give City written notice of
Proposer's objection to the City's release of Proprietary Information. Proposer
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City, and its officers, directors,
employees, and agents from and against all liability, loss, cost or expense
(including attorney's fees) arising out of a legal action brought to compel the
release of Proprietary Information.
Proposals which indiscriminately identify all or most of the proposal as
exempt from disclosure without justification may be deemed unresponsive and
disqualified from further participation in this procurement.
Submittal Instructions: Electronic PDF file format via Planetbids. Please allow time for
system to process your proposal. The proposal must be received no later than 3:00pm local time,
on or before May 30, 2023. The City shall not be responsible for proposals that are not received
on time. The City will not be responsible for and will not accept late bids due to slow internet
connection, or incomplete transmissions.
K. General Conditions
1. Amendments to RFP: The City reserves the right to amend the RFP and
issue to all Proposers an addendum.
2. Amendments to Proposals: Unless specifically requested by the City, no
amendment, addendum or modification shall be accepted after a proposal has been submitted to
City. If a change to a proposal that has been submitted is desired, the submitted proposal must
be withdrawn and the replacement proposal submitted prior to the deadline stated herein for
receiving proposals.
3. Non-Responsive Proposals: A proposal may be considered non-
responsive if conditional, incomplete, or if it contains alterations of form, additions not called for,
or other irregularities that may constitute a material change to the proposal.
4. Costs for Preparing: The City shall not compensate any Proposer for the
cost of preparing any proposal, and all materials submitted with a proposal shall become the
Attachment 2
Packet Pg. 601

property of the City. The City will retain all proposals submitted and may use any idea in a proposal

prior to contract award without obligation in any manner for proposal preparation, interview, fee
negotiation or other marketing costs associated with this RFP.

valid for 120 days from the proposal due date. The City intends to award the contract within this
time but may request an extension from the Proposers to hold pricing, until negotiations are
complete, and the contract is awarded.
7. No Commitment to Award: Issuance of this RFP and receipt of proposals
does not commit the City to award a contract. City expressly reserves the right to postpone the
proposal for its own convenience, to accept or reject any or all proposals received in response to
this RFP, to negotiate with more than one Proposer concurrently, or to cancel all or part of this
RFP.
8. Right to Negotiate and/or Reject Proposals: City reserves the right to
negotiate any price or provision, task order or service, accept any part or all of any proposals,
waive any irregularities, and to reject any and all, or parts of any and all proposals, whenever, in
the sole opinion of City, such action shall serve its best interests and those of the tax-paying
public. The Proposers are encouraged to submit their best prices in their proposals, and City
intends to negotiate only with the Proposer(s) whose proposal most closely meets City’s
requirements at the lowest estimated cost. The Agreement, if any is awarded, shall go to the
Proposer whose proposal best meets City’s requirements.
9. Non-Discrimination: The City does not discriminate on the basis of race,
color, national origin, religion, age, ancestry, medical condition, disability or gender in
consideration for an award of contract.

DISCUSSION
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, Interim City Manager;
Mary Lanier, Interim Agency Director of Community, Housing
and Economic Development
Department:Community and Economic Development
Subject:Regional Housing Trust Letter of Intent
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council approves the City joining the San
Bernardino Regional Housing Trust, a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) formed among
cities within the San Bernardino County Region to gain competitiveness and improve
financial viability so that the City can increase affordable housing developments.
Background
In response to increasing concern around the region’s housing shortage, the San
Bernardino Council of Governments (SBCOG) City/County Managers Technical
Advisory Committee (CCMTAC) determined that an Ad Hoc Committee was needed
to explore the feasibility of implementing a housing trust for the San Bernardino region.
On January 4, 2023, SBCOG approved the establishment of an Ad Hoc Committee to
review the governance structure of the proposed San Bernardino Regional Housing
Trust (Housing Trust).
On January 23, 2023, the Ad HOC Committee met to discuss governance structure
options and voted to proceed with SBCOG’s staff recommendations of establishing a
separate Joint Powers Authority (JPA) for the Housing Trust. It was recommended that
the JPA be its own separate legal entity known as the San Bernardino Regional
Housing Trust (SBRHT) and be made up of member agencies with a non-profit
component that would enable the Housing Trust to solicit and accept private donations.
The purpose of SBRHT is to attract significant funding and affordable housing interest
into the San Bernardino Region. The goals of SBRHT are to:
Packet Pg. 627

•Attract affordable housing developers.
•Increase/preserve the region’s affordable housing supply.
•Increase equitable access to community resources.
•Provide financial relief for vulnerable and cost burdened households.
•Protect against displacement, overcrowding, and poor housing conditions.
On April 5, 2023, SBCOG authorized the following:
•Process of establishing a San Bernardino Regional Housing Trust.
•Process of establishing a new JPA.
•Hiring necessary consultants upon receipt of award of Regional Early Action
Planning (REAP) 2.0 funds.
•Direction for its staff to work with the Housing Trust Ad Hoc Committee to
develop recommendations for the SBCOG Board’s consideration on policy
decisions regarding the establishment of a Regional Housing Trust.
SCOG will utilize Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) REAP 2.0
funds once awarded to initiate and implement the new JPA. This includes all studies,
research, analysis, legal action/fees, etc. to be funded by REAP 2.0. Qualified staffing
will be selected through a procurement process that will likely include member agency
staff.
Discussion
The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) is administered by the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and is the largest
federal block grant to state and local governments designed exclusively to create
affordable housing for low-income households. HOME funds are awarded annually as
formula grants to participating jurisdictions (PJs), and funding can be used to perform
a wide range of activities including building, buying, and/or rehabilitating affordable
housing for rent or homeownership or providing direct rental assistance to low-income
people. On average, the City receives approximately $1.4 million in HOME funds
annually. This amount is not nearly enough to create the level of affordable housing
needed in the City. According to the Southern California Association of Governments
(SCAG) 2021-2029 6th cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) Report,
the County needs 8,832 affordable housing units to meet its housing demand, but
specifically, the City has a future housing need of 1,415 units for very low-income units,
of which half, or 703 units, is the projected need for extremely low-income households.
A Housing Trust is created to provide the following:
•Raise Funds for New Construction of Affordable and Workforce Housing
•Affordable Housing Preservation or Rehabilitation
•Financing for the Purchase of Land
•Transitional and Supportive Housing
•Pre-Development Loans
•Down Payment Assistance
•Community Land Trust

There are several benefits to joining a Regional Housing Trust that include flexible gap
financing, pooled funding to preserve and produce affordable housing in the City,
strengthening the financial viability of individual housing projects and programs, and
increasing each project’s competitiveness for additional state and federal funding
sources. Additionally, a Housing Trust works with a variety of government and
philanthropic groups to attract more housing funds to the San Bernardino region.
Should Council approve the City’s decision to join a Regional Housing Trust staff would
be able to work with policy makers of jurisdictions, which have formally communicated
interest through the “Letter of Intent” (Attachment 1) in participating in the San
Bernardino Regional Housing Trust (SBRHT) for SBCOG Board’s consideration. So
far there are eleven (11) jurisdictions that have provided a Letter of Intent:
•City of Colton
•City of Fontana
•City of Needles
•City of Ontario
•City of Rancho Cucamonga
•City of Redlands
•City of Rialto
•City of Twenty-Nine-Palms
•City of Yucaipa
•City of Yucca Valley and
•County of San Bernardino
In order for the City to become a member of the Regional Housing Trust, the City
Manager needs to sign a Letter of Intent, which does not financially obligate the City
or commit the City to remaining in the Regional Housing Trust. The signed Letter of
Intent only marks the City’s interest in joining a Regional Housing Trust. Should the
City enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with SBCOG to administer a
Housing Trust the annual administrative fee would be approximately $26,000 (based
on population size).
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
Joining a Regional Housing Trust aligns with Strategic Target No. 3: Focused, Aligned
Leadership and Unified Community as a Regional Housing Trust would allow the City
to expand its funding pool and resources needed to increase affordable housing.
Joining a Regional Housing Trust also aligns with Strategic Target No. 4: Improved
Quality of Life. According to the 2021-2029 6th cycle Regional Housing Needs
Assessment (RHNA) Report, the City is in need of 1415 affordable housing units for
low and very low-income units.
Fiscal Impact
There is no financial impact in having the City express its intent to Join a Regional
Housing Trust.

Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council approves the City joining the San
Bernardino Regional Housing Trust, a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) formed among
cities within the San Bernardino County Region to gain competitiveness and improve
financial viability so that the City can increase affordable housing developments.

RE: INTEREST IN PARTICIPATING IN SAN BERNARDINO REGIONAL HOUSING TRUST
Dear Mr. Wolfe,
The City of San Bernardino is interested in participating in the San Bernardino Regional Housing Trust
(SBRHT) to be established by the San Bernardino Council of Governments (SBCOG). Through the SBHRT,
the City of San Bernardino intends to further the SBHRT’s goal to attract significant funding and
affordable housing development interest into the San Bernardino region.
The City of San Bernardino anticipates that SBCTA/SBCOG will administer SBRHT and that each
participating Party shall make annual contributions toward the budgeted administrative costs of SBRHT.
In return, SBRHT will provide services and support to the region and its Parties to carry out the purpose
of SBRHT.
This letter of interest is not a commitment, and we are providing this letter only to further the planning
for the establishment of the SBRHT. Final commitment to join the SBHRT will be subject to City Council
approval, funding availability, and other factors.
Should you have any questions regarding the City of San Bernardino’s interest, please contact Cassandra
Searcy at searcy_ca@sbcity.org or at 909-210-7767.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Charles E McNeely

Plan Act (ARPA). The City received half of the funds in May 2021, and the remainder
of the funds in May of 2022. Treasury issued the final rule for the use of the funds on
January 6, 2022, providing clarification on allowable investments, but generally not
expanding the list of eligible projects and programs. The City is working within the
guidance, focusing on investments in Qualified Census Tracts (QCTs) and other
allowable investments.
Within the allowable investments provided by the Final Rule are public outdoor spaces

(parks and recreation facilities, trails, public squares) in QCTs, assistance for small
businesses and/or non-profits that can demonstrate a negative impact from COVID-
19, aid to households, violence intervention programs, water, sewer, and storm drain
improvements, built environment and building façade improvements, and “hero” pay
for qualifying employees.
Senate Bill 3011, or the ARPA Flex provision, which was adopted with the final 2023
Federal Budget, promises to open up some additional spending categories for ARPA
funds. This Bill allows spending for some transportation projects and allows ARPA
funds to be used as a match for other Federal Grants. Because this provision changes
the spending rules, Treasury will be issuing a new Interim Final Rule, which was
promised to be issued on April 15; however, as of the submission of this report (June
7) the Interim Final Rule has not been posted to the website. Contacts with the
Treasury Department promise that the new rules will be available “soon.”
ARPA Flex may create additional challenges. First, it does not align with the current
ARPA spending deadline of December 31, 2026, but adopts a September 30, 2026,
deadline to align with the Federal Budget Year, and the amount of funds that cities will
be allowed to spend on transportation infrastructure and/or as match for Federal grants
remains to be interpreted by Treasury. Staff follows Treasury updates, and attend
regular meetings, webinars, and discussion groups to ensure that the City has the
latest information.
As of this date, Mayor and City Council have committed $56,860,000 of the City’s
$77,656,407 allocation. The allocation and spending to date is below.
Discussion
The funds committed by the Mayor and City Council fall under five broad categories:
Small Business and Non-Profit Assistance, Parks and Recreation Rehabilitation, City
Services and the Homeless Initiative. The report discusses each project, and spending,

Small Business and Non-Profit Assistance (All Wards).
A total of $5,000,000 was committed by Mayor and City
Council to small business and non-profit assistance. $3
million for the Small Business and Non-Profit Grant program,
and $2 million for the Entrepreneurial Resource Center.
Small Business and Non-Profit Grant Program (All Wards).
This program is underway and grant checks are being
processed to eligible businesses and non-profits. There were more than 400
applicants, of which approximately 100 were approved. Each applicant was required
to attend a selection of business and/or marketing courses designed to help them
improve their business performance before they were approved for payment. The
classes were developed and taught by the Inland Empire Small Business Development
Center (SBDC), which also aided the City with grant applications. The amounts of the
grants varied from $10,000 to $35,000, based on the annual gross revenue of the
business or non-profit, shown below.

Staff anticipates that 100% of the $3,000,000 allocated to the Grant Program will be
granted, with a second round of grants coming later in 2023. As of the writing of this
report, $1,185,000 in grants have been disbursed in the first round.
Funds spent to date: $1,185,000
Funds available for reallocation: $0
Funds remaining to be spent: $1,815,000
The Entrepreneurial Resource Center (ERC) (All Wards). The ERC will provide the
Packet Pg. 665

local small business and non-profit community with access to valuable resources,
business counseling, and specialized business assistance programs to help them
recover from the ongoing and residual effects of the pandemic and build sustainable
resilience to navigate and survive future economic challenges. The ERC is a
collaboration with the City and the Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship (IECE)
at California State University San Bernardino. The City’s contribution to the ERC’s
success proposes combining the following ARPA funding allocations: $1 million for
small business education, and $1 million to develop a resource center. The proposal
is to be considered by Mayor and City Council on 6/7/2023.
Funds spent to date: $0
Funds available for reallocation: $0

Parks and Recreation Rehabilitation. There are four
parks with ARP funded rehabilitation projects for a total of
$19,050,000.
Seccombe Lake (Ward 1). Seccombe Lake Park is in
census tract 58.00, a QCT, making it eligible for the use
of ARP funds under the current rules (State and Local
Fiscal Recovery Funds, Frequently Asked Questions
2.18, 2021). Council asked that $9,000,000 of ARP funds
be reserved for the Seccombe Lake Park project in case the City did not receive State
grant funding. Just days after learning that the City was not awarded State grant
funding in 2022, the City
received notice of a grant award
of $1,000,000 toward the
project from the San Manuel
Band of Mission Indians. This
funding and the $9,000,000 in
ARP funds allow for significant
improvements to this 43-acre
park in the center of the City.
Staff continues to seek other
funding sources, as directed by
Council.
The Seccombe Lake Park project is currently in design. Design is anticipated to be
completed in the fall of 2023, with bidding and award of a construction contract to be
completed in winter 2023/24. Construction should be completed by the end of calendar
year 2024.
Total spending to date on the Seccombe Lake project is $101,894 in staff time with
non-ARPA funds. The ARPA funds will be drawn down when billing for design and
construction begins.

Nicholson Park (Ward 6). The redevelopment of Nicholson Park is a necessary
improvement for the neighborhood served by the park. Closed for more than eight
years, the decline of the park became a symbol of the City’s neglect of community
assets during and after the bankruptcy. The park serves a diverse neighborhood that
includes several mobile home parks. The estimated cost for a complete renovation of
the park, excluding the community center, is $10,000,000. The City received
permission from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to use
$1,000,000 in CDBG funds toward the Nicholson Park renovation and will also use
$150,000 received as a settlement for Meadowbrook Bridge. The commitment of ARP
funds of 8,850,000 brings the total available funding to $10,000,000.
Nicholson Park is not located in a QCT. It
is in census tract 44.01, which is not a QCT
but serves a population that includes a
QCT (census tract 44.04). Staff submitted
a request to the US Treasury Department
for clarification of eligibility because, as
noted above, the City has received
authorization to use HUD CDBG funding
for Nicholson Park based on the service
area. The Treasury Department has
responded that there will be no pre-
authorization or pre-approval of projects for
any ARP fund recipients. The uncertainty
makes funding Nicholson Park with ARP
funds a risk; however, given the direction
from Treasury in the final rule to use
demographic and community information
to justify investments, staff believes that
Nicholson Park falls within the spending
guidelines.
The final rule expanded the list of enumerated projects that are generally eligible if a
neighborhood is identified as having been disproportionately impacted by the
pandemic. Specifically, Treasury has provided a rule for determining the impact of the
pandemic by geographic area using Area Median Income (AMI). Areas that can be
designated “low-income” can be presumed to have suffered a greater negative
economic impact from the pandemic. Low-income areas are identified by comparing
the median income of the specific area (in this case census tract 44.01) to a calculated
low-income threshold for a family of three for the County in which the area is located.
The County of San Bernardino low-income threshold is $40,626 and the AMI for
Census Tract 44.01 is $34,524, well below the threshold. Because Nicholson Park
serves a low-income area in tract 44.01 and serves tract 44.04, a QCT, staff believes
that renovating the park falls within the allowable use of ARP funds. (Treasury.gov,
State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, Tool for Determining Low and Moderate

Income (LMI) Households, 2022).
The Nicholson Park project is in the design phase, which should be complete in the fall
of 2023. A construction contract will be awarded in the winter of 2023/24. Construction
is anticipated to be complete by the end of calendar year 2024.
Total spending to date on the Nicholson Park project is $205,023. Like Seccombe Lake
Park, this spending is staff preparation for contracted design and contraction. ARPA
funds will be drawn down when billing for design and construction begins.
Both the Seccombe Lake and Nicholson Park projects, because they are capital
investments of more than $1,000,000, require the City to submit written justification to
Treasury for the projects. The final rule discussion of capital investments is focused on
the timing of projects as part of a response to the pandemic. The rule states, “the time
required for a large construction project may make capital expenditures less
responsive to pandemic-related needs relative to other types of responses”
(Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, Final Rule: Overview of General
Standards, January 2022). In the case of these two parks, the City of San Bernardino
is uniquely able to address health outcomes with the capital investment of ARP funds
and do so within a shorter timeframe because of the extent of community outreach and
planning that has already been completed.
Roosevelt Bowl (Ward 2). The
Roosevelt Bowl at Perris Hill Park
is a historic asset of the City.
Originally built in 1934 as part of
the Work progress Administration
(WPA), this outdoor amphitheater
not only provides free family
entertainment during the summer
with movies in the park, but is a
popular venue for concerts,
graduations, events, and
weddings that is underutilized due
to its condition. The Mayor and
City Council committed $600,000
in ARP funds, and the City
received an additional $1,400,000 in Federal funds thanks to Congressman Pete
Aguilar. $2,000,000 will allow for the renovation of the main building, concession stand
and bathrooms; upgrading the facility to be compliant with the American with
Disabilities Act; concrete and electrical work; restoration of the access trail; upgrades
to lighting and the sound systems; the installation of fencing; and the restoration of
landscaping and irrigation.

The Roosevelt Bowl project
is in the planning phase.
The RFP for design
services is in process and
will be “on the street” for
proposals when this staff
report is presented to
Mayor and City Council.
Design should be
completed early in calendar
year 2024, and a
construction contract will be
awarded in the spring of
2024. Construction is
planned for completion in the winter of 2024/25. No ARPA funds have been expended
on the Roosevelt Bowl renovation to date.
Lytle Creek Park (Ward 3). A disused parking lot at the north end of Lytle Creek Park
will be converted to two futsal courts, providing more opportunities for recreation for
youth in the area. The initial plan was to convert the parking lot into a soccer field;
however, community input led to a change in plans to futsal courts. Futsal is similar to
soccer but is played by teams of five, on a smaller, hard court, similar to a basketball
court, and can be played indoors or outdoors. Futsal is an official FIFA sport, with a
World Cup held every four years, which began in 1989. Many world-famous soccer
players started in futsal, which is faster paced than soccer and is considered an ideal
training ground for technical skills and speed since it is played not only on a smaller
hard court, but with a smaller, low bounce ball.
The Lytle Creek Park project is in the planning phase. A design contract will be
awarded later this summer, and a construction contract sometime in late spring/early
summer 2024. Construction should be completed by early 2025. Less than $500 has
been expended to date.
The final rule reiterates previous guidance that investments in disproportionately
impacted neighborhoods, including parks, trails and other improvements that can be
linked to better health outcomes are eligible for ARP funds (Coronavirus State and
Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, Overview of the Final Rule, January 2022).
The investments in the Roosevelt Bowl and Lytle Creek Park make improvements that
encourage use of the City’s parks and enable outdoor activities with social distancing.
The Roosevelt Bowl can host outdoor events. The improvement to Lytle Creek will
provide more opportunity for youth in the surrounding neighborhoods to engage in
healthy outdoor activity, which is linked not only to improvements in health outcomes
but also is a key part of violence intervention and reduction programs.

City Services (All Wards). City Services includes the
Graffiti, Clean-up and Paintbrush Program for clean-up
and façade improvements throughout the City, to which
$2,000,000 was committed, and the Violence Intervention
Program, to which $1,000,000 was committed, by the
Mayor and City Council.
Graffiti, Clean-up, and Paint Brush Program (All Wards). The
Graffiti, Clean-up, and Paintbrush Program was initially
intended to be outsourced; however, the responses to the City’s
Request for Proposals (RFP) were significantly higher than the
$2 million available budget. Public Works staff determined that
the program could be
brought in-house for
minimal budgetary impact.
Since beginning the clean-
up program, City staff is
successfully mitigating
graffiti citywide, cleaning
downtown and arterial sidewalks, and mitigating
dump sites throughout the City using the two Avant
Mini-Loaders purchased last year. The loaders
have numerous attachments including pressure
washers, flail mowers, compacting rollers (for
pothole patching), buckets, grabbers, forks (for
fork-lifting) and are turf friendly. As the picture
illustrates, the Mini-Loaders make removal of large items like mattresses much easier
during clean-ups citywide.
A single local artist donates his time working with City staff to paint utility boxes,
benches, and murals throughout the City in areas that were previously regularly tagged
with graffiti. Much of this public art celebrates local culture and is not only beautiful but
can also inspire a greater sense of community in the neighborhoods in which they are
located. Murals and other public art are respected by graffiti artists, who will actively
Packet Pg. 670
1
2
7
5
protect it from “taggers,” as will members of
the neighborhoods in which these unique
works of art are located.
The Dia de los Muertos mural, located at the
City’s pocket park at Arrowhead and 28th
Street, has not been tagged since its
installation, and the angel wing mural in
Muscupiabe has
also remained
clear of any graffiti. The rose has been tagged only once
in a full year, and the zig-zag mural has also only been
tagged one time in the year since its completion. Public
Works staff estimates that the City is saving several
thousand dollars at each mural location annually in paint
and labor costs because these murals are inspiring pride
of place.
Because the program was brought in-house, very little of
the $2,000,000 in ARP funds dedicated to the program
has been spent.
The Graffiti, Clean-up and Paint-Brush Program will continue beyond the timeframe of
the ARPA funding because it has minimal operational impact on the General Fund.
Staff will be moving forward from
graffiti mitigation to façade
improvement; working with local
businesses to improve storefronts.
The Final Rule provided by
Teasury specifically allows this use
of ARPA funds as a method to
improve the neighborhoods in
which small businesses operate
and attract new small business
owners. In light of the success of the graffiti program, staff anticipates that the façade
improvement program, if marketed and explained well to the community, will be popular
and will have a measureable positive impact on the community.

Violence Intervention Program (All Wards). The investments Council has committed
to the rehabilitation of the City’s parks and recreation facilities have a direct, positive
impact on violence intervention by providing safe spaces in neighborhoods,
programing for children, teens and young adults which are alternatives to participation
Packet Pg. 671

in gang activities. These investments support a holistic approach to community
violence that focuses more on prevention than intervention after-the-fact.
Nevertheless, intervention is a critical component, especially for youth that have been
raised in multi-generational gang families, and others for whom early prevention efforts
may not have been available. The Mayor and City Council committed $1,000,000 in
ARP funds to the City’s existing Violence Intervention Program, an evidence-based
program that works to provide community-based and culturally competent service
delivery, in community-based, hospital-based, and school-based intervention services,
to reduce gang violence, recidivism, and provide supportive services to individuals and
families that are affected by gang violence.
The Program’s Violence Intervention & Prevention Services:
•Crisis Response & Rumor Control
•Conflict Mediation & Resolution
•Proactive Community Engagement Activities
•Custom Notifications
•Customized Case Management Plans
•Mentoring & Connections Pro-social Activities & Resources
•Connections to Educational & Workforce Development
As of the October 2021 report to the Mayor and City Council, progress of the Violence
intervention Program on the measurable violence reduction goals was as follows:
Goal Actual
Reduce gang related homicides
and shootings by 5% annually.
10% reduction in gang-related homicides and 17%
reduction in gang-related shootings.
Reduce recidivism among
program participants by 15%.
80% of program participants remain arrest free
and have not been re-victimized. The other 20%
of program participants could not be reached or
found.
With gang recidivism rates estimated to be more than double that of other offenders,
and the national overall recidivism rate at 44%, the significance of 80% of program
participants remaining arrest free cannot be overstated.
The $1,000,000 dedicated to VIP is being used to leverage other grants and funding
from CalVIP and other sources to ensure the greatest impact on the community. The
new rules may allow the ARP funds to be used to match state grant funds, which would
enable the funding to go even further towards benefiting the community.

Water Infrastructure. ARP Funds are specifically allowed to be spent on water, sewer,
Packet Pg. 672

and storm drainage infrastructure. Because the City of San Bernardino’s Water
Department funds capital investments through its rate structure, the Mayor and City
Council decided to use the majority of the ARP funds for projects and programs that
did not have a clear funding mechanism. Nevertheless, funding some water projects
rose to the top because of their impact.
Water Line Lead Connector Replacement Program (Ward 6, County). The lateral
service line connector is a small connector line between a residential home and the
service main for water. In some cases, this connector may contain lead, depending on
the decade in which it was installed, and the materials used. The San Bernardino
Municipal Water Department (SBMWD) identified neighborhoods in which there were
concentrations of connectors installed during time periods in which it was more likely
that materials were used that contained lead. The neighborhoods, one within the City
limits (the San Anselmo neighborhood) and one just outside the City in Muscoy,
included 509 connectors to homes that may contain lead.
Over the last nine months, the SBMWD has been researching and testing in the
neighborhoods to verify the lateral service connectors that require replacement. During
their research, they found that the lateral service connectors in the San Anselmo
neighborhood that were suspected of containing lead do not, and thus do not require
Packet Pg. 673
1
2

5
replacement. The lateral service lines in the Muscoy area are still being verified, but a
considerable number have been found to contain lead. The map provided shows the
Muscoy neighborhood. The service laterals that have been verified to contain lead are
shown in orange, those in purple are unknown.
The initial cost was estimated to be $5,160,000; however, because the San Anselmo
neighborhood is no longer included in the project scope, the cost will be reduced to
$3.6M. The $1,560,000 in ARP funds that will not be used will be available for the
Mayor and City Council to reallocate to other ARPA-eligible projects.
The project is going out to RFP now and is anticipated to be completed by the end of
the calendar year.

Homeless Initiative and Navigation Center (All Wards). On February 24, 2022,
homeless individuals and families in the City of San Bernardino were surveyed for the
annual Point in Time Count. The 2022 Point in Time Count revealed that the City
continues to have the highest concentration of homeless individuals in the County with
a reported 1350 homeless men, women, and children of which 992 were unsheltered.
Based on the current legal landscape, the City should provide a total of at least 595
shelter beds (60% of 992), before it can resume enforcement of anti-camping
ordinances and minimize the risk of a federal lawsuit. The City currently has 170 shelter
beds, which means an additional 425 shelter beds are needed to meet the goal before
the City may resume enforcement of anti-camping ordinances.1
More importantly, the City needs to provide shelter for the unhoused in the community.
With only 170 shelter beds, the City is currently able to house only 17% of its
unsheltered population. Without emergency winter sheltering, the possibility of
hypothermia or even freezing to death became a very real possibility this winter when
San Bernardino saw unusually low temperatures heavy rains and even some snow.
The Homeless Initiative includes:

housing, including 20 supportive housing units $ 5,000,000
Interim Housing during the development of the SB Hope Campus 973,500

Council’s direction to use ARP funds for the City’s parks, violence intervention
program, aid for small businesses, graffiti abatement, clean-up of abandoned store
fronts and replacement of lead water service connectors are key investments in the
community that, in addition to the significant investments in infrastructure
improvements citywide, demonstrate a commitment to the City and the residents of
San Bernardino. Staff will continue to monitor guidance from Treasury on the use of
ARP funds for additional investment opportunities and update the Mayor and Council.
Mayor and City Council have the opportunity to invest the remaining $20,796,407 in a
number of ways. As stated above, SB 3011 is opening up the categories for investment;
however, Treasury has not published their new interim final rule to provide specific
guidance on the new categories of investment.
When considering how to invest the remaining ARP funds, Mayor and Council may
wish to review the Final Rule and other information provided on the State and Local
Fiscal Recovery Funds website at https://home.treasury.gov/policy-
issues/coronavirus/assistance-for-state-local-and-tribal-governments/state-and-local-
fiscal-recovery-funds. Treasury’s current Final Rule breaks the available areas of
investment into four categories:
1) Public Health and Negative Economic Impacts
2) Premium Pay
3) Revenue Loss
4) Water, Sewer, and Broadband Infrastructure
Listed below is a more detailed list of programs that fall under the current Treasury
categories (with each category identified) and the two broad SB 3011 areas of
investments. This list is not all inclusive but covers most areas of investment that might
apply to the City of San Bernardino:
•Individual, household, business, and non-profit assistance for those impacted
by the COVID-19 pandemic (1)
•Vaccination and testing centers (1)
•Homeless assistance programs (1)
Packet Pg. 675

•Housing assistance programs (1)
•Parks and outdoor recreation areas in Qualified Census Tracts (QCTs) (1)
•Violence prevention and intervention programs (1)
•Clean-up and façade improvement programs (1)
•“Hero” pay for employees (2)
•$10,000,000 “Standard Allowance” for revenue loss which may be spent on
government services (3)
•Broadband investments programs to reach low-income households (with
specific speed requirements) (4)
•Water, Sewer, and Storm Drainage Infrastructure (4)
•Transportation infrastructure (newly added by SB 3011, no guidance from
Treasury)
•“Non-Federal” Match for Federal grants (newly added by SB 3011, no guidance
from Treasury)
The City has committed $56,860,000 in total, of which $51,700,000 falls under
category (1) Public Health and Negative Economic Impacts. This category covers
investments in parks and outdoor recreation spaces that promote healthy lifestyles,
investments in violence intervention services, improvements to public spaces, façades
and buildings that improve the overall appearance of the City, and financial aid to help
mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The remaining $5,160,000
committed to the SBMWD lateral service connector replacement program falls under
category (4) Water, Sewer, and Broadband Infrastructure.

reallocation.

Other Potential Areas of Investment
Premium Pay.
Category (2) Premium Pay allows governments to provide premium pay to employees.
The intent of the premium pay, according to Sections 602(c)(1)(B) and 603(c(1)(B) of
the Social Security Act, as added by ARPA, was “to respond to workers performing
essential work during the COVID-19 public health emergency by providing premium
pay to eligible workers…” It was also, according to the Department of Labor,
essentially the same as hazard pay. However, in defining “eligible worker” Treasury
defined all government workers as eligible. Treasury did encourage governments
recipients of ARPA funds to be discerning when making decisions about which
workers should be given the extra pay, pointing out that the intent of the premium pay
was recognize the lowest paid employees in the workforce, who, in general, were
found to be more likely to be “on the front lines” during the COVID-19 public health
emergency.
For comparative purposes, staff surveyed surrounding cities to determine if they
provided premium pay to employees, and if so, how much and to which employees.
On the following page is a breakdown of the findings and the approximate cost to each
city.
Note on average versus median.2
Understanding the amounts that cities paid and why they chose to provide premium
2 The average is defined as representative of a set of numbers and is obtained by summing the data and
dividing by the number of inputs. The median is defined as the value at which half of the observed numbers
are higher, and half are lower. Average is considered best used when the data is “mostly similar,” and using
median may a better option if there are outliers; data points distinctly higher or lower than the majority.

MEDIAN 167,443 40.03 $37,369,759 $75,195 13.0%
The average and median above include the City of San Bernardino. The City of San
Bernardino received the largest allocation of ARP funds. As can be seen from the data
above, San Bernardino has the highest percentage of persons in poverty, the lowest
median household income, and population and geographic size second only to that of
Riverside.
Each City’s leadership has to make decisions based on their city’s needs. Rancho
Cucamonga, with one of the lowest percentages of persons in poverty, and the highest
median household income, has elected not to use their ARP funds for premium pay
for employees, whereas Riverside, with persons in poverty and household income in
the middle of the pack, gave the highest premium pay, costing more than $25 million.
This amount was more than what remained of their ARPA allocation when they made
the decision; their leadership dedicated funds from other sources to make up the
difference.
Should the Mayor and Council choose to consider premium pay, there are various
models for distribution. Below are examples.
1)All employees. Award all employees some amount of premium pay. The City
currently has 825 authorized full-time positions, with a vacancy rate of 10-15%.
2)Department-based. Consider awarding premium pay based on the role of
departments or divisions during the pandemic, rather than individual positions.
3 US Census Bureau QuickFacts: California
Packet Pg. 678

3)Timing-based. Consider awarding based on employment during all or part of the
formally declared pandemic, March 13, 2020- May 5, 2023. (Excluding employees
who are no longer employed with the City when the payments are made.)
In considering premium pay and the possible methods and costs, it may be helpful to
review the decisions made by other cities. Attached to this report (Attachment 3) are
four local news articles reporting on the structure of the payments to employees in
Ontario, Redlands, Murrieta, and Rialto. Staff found that most cities did not have a
complicated metric like that in Redlands, with weeks worked during a set period of
time, but elected to make premium payments to current employees, either full-time
only, or both full-time and part-time.
As stated above, the City has 825 authorized full-time positions, with a vacancy rate
of 10-15%. The City currently employs 188 part-time employees with an average
throughout the year of 150. The City generally employs more part-time employees
during the summer for parks and recreation programming.
Should the Mayor and City Council wish to proceed with premium pay for employees,
staff will bring back a report with the details and costs based on whatever model(s)
Council would like to consider. Attached (Attachment 4) are examples of the potential
cost, based on all existing employees at different levels of premium pay.
Parks, Recreation and Community Services
There are a number of parks in the City that need investment due to long-term neglect
or simply to improve the service to the community. Following is a list of the parks and
recreation facilities that would qualify for ARPA funding.
Encanto Center and Park Renovations. The Encanto Center and Park renovations
include renovating and improving the existing facility as well as the park. Staff will also
pursue grant funding. There is approximately $3,400,000 in funding already committed
from donations, CDBG and the Cultural Development Fund, with about $500,000
needed to complete the project.
Jerry Lewis Swim Center Improvements. These improvements will continue the work
already completed at the Jerry Lewis Swim Center including renovating the kitchen,
painting, and installing a new water slide. Staff will also pursue grant funding.
Approximately $240,000 in improvements were made in FY 2022/23, which included
the addition of pool heaters, improvements to the pool and the addition of shade

structures.
Delmann Heights Park Improvements. The conceptual design for these improvements
includes converting the existing football field to synthetic turf and installing a track
around the field. Renovating the kitchen, replacing the restrooms with prefabricated
restrooms, and replacing the entrance fencing. Improving and renovating the park and
community center to its full potential will exceed $6,000,000; however, staff is
evaluating and will be pursuing grant opportunities.
Perris Hill Park Fencing. Perris Hall Park includes a plethora of community amenities
that are currently being renovated and improved by Parks and Public Works staff. The
installation of fencing will aid in maintaining the amenities for the community.
Parks, Recreation and Community Services staff will work with Grants staff to pursue
grant opportunities for parks and recreation facilities, both at the state and Federal
level. When the new ARPA Flex rules are issued, there may be additional opportunities
for matching Federal grants with ARPA funds, allowing the City to leverage grant funds
more effectively.
Information Technology Infrastructure.
Years of budget cuts and austerity during the bankruptcy led to neglect of the City’s IT
infrastructure and software needs. More pressing community needs kept investments
in critical internal service needs on the proverbial “back burner.” In the last two years
the City has invested in security, servers, fiber, and other upgrades; however, the City
has more than a decade of catching up to do. Investing in IT infrastructure and the
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system will not only allow the City to provide
more efficient service, but also will enable the City to provide better and more
transparent reporting to Council and the public. The Mayor and City Council have
expressed support and committed more than $2 million to the city-wide technology
assessment, which is now complete. This study provided the baseline for the next
step, investing in an ERP system. This system will provide city-wide software including
Finance, HR, Payroll, Permitting, Building Safety, Land Management, Business
Registration, and Cash Receipting. Staff estimates that a system able to serve all of
these needs, with implementation and any additional technology infrastructure
upgrades to support it, will cost approximately $10 million.
$10 million is a significant investment of ARP funds that will directly and positively
impact the ability of the City to serve residents and customers. With a better IT
infrastructure and a modern ERP, there will be an improvement in the quality of service
the City provides, and significant savings in staff time that can be reallocated to better
serve the community. $10 million is not enough to address all the IT needs of the City
but is enough to make significant progress.
The manual processes in every department drive slow response times to City
residents and customers and increase the potential for errors. The manual entry of
data between disparate software systems and the manual tracking of cash receipts
Packet Pg. 680

and payroll city-wide costs hundreds of staff hours monthly. Not only do manual
systems make providing a high level of customer service challenging, but they also
make tracking performance metrics and implementing process improvements difficult
when processes are reliant on the daily re-entry of data from one system to another.
The savings in staff time mentioned above cannot be easily quantified; however, while
the reallocation and savings in staff time will not be immediate, as new software is
implemented and the manual processes are phased out, departments will be able to
work more efficiently and effectively with existing staff. Better software combined with
employees no longer focused on manual data entry, will enable the City to provide the
highest level of customer service and track the efficiency of both external and internal
processes for continuous improvement.
With this allocation of funds, the timeline for an ERP system to be implemented is
approximately 24 months. This includes time for the RPF, evaluation, and full
implementation of the software.
If the Mayor and City Council choose to make this allocation, there will be $12,356,407
remaining ARP funds to be invested. Staff will continue to pursue grants for projects
like Seccombe Lake that may be able to be grant-funded and free ARP funds for
reallocation to other projects, particularly as the new Interim Final and Final Rule from
Treasury are issued with guidance on transportation infrastructure investments and
the potential for Federal grant matching using ARP funds. The new rules allowing grant
matching with ARP funds may be particularly helpful for the City with investments in
parks, the violence intervention program and transportation infrastructure.
ARPA Flex
It is staff’s hope that the New Interim Final Rule that includes ARPA Flex will be
available soon. This information is critical to making recommendations and decisions
regarding additional ARPA funds; especially given that the New Interim Final Rule may
allow investment in streets and sidewalks, as well as the use of ARPA funds to match
other Federal grants. Staff will update the Mayor and City Council as soon as the new
Interim Final Rule is issued by Treasury.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
Investments in the community using the American Rescue Plan funds support Key
Strategic Goal 2. Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community, b. Evaluate
operations and performance, investment in resources, technology, and tools to
continually improve organizational efficiency and effectiveness; and Goal 3. Improved
Quality of Life.
Fiscal Impact
The fiscal impact of allocating additional funds from the City’s ARP allocation is to
increase the City’s Adopted FY 2022/23-2023/24 Biennial Budget by $8,440,000, and
reduce the remaining ARP funds available for allocation to other projects and programs
to $12,356,407.

DISCUSSION
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date:July 19, 2023
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From:Charles E. McNeely, Interim City Manager;
Daniel Hernandez, Agency Director of Public Works,
Operations, and Maintenance
Department:Public Works
Subject:Concept Plan Approval for Seccombe Lake Park
Revitalization Project (Ward 1)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, approve the concept plans prepared for Seccombe Lake Park
Revitalization Project and direct staff to proceed with final design for the project.
Background
On September 21, 2022, the Mayor and City Council approved the award of a
Design Services Agreement with RHA Landscape Architects Planners, Inc. in the
amount of $537,855 for the revitalization of Seccombe Lake Park.
In October 2022, the design work for the proposed improvements was initiated. The
proposed improvements include installation of new playground, concrete walkways,
pet waste stations, accent entry pavers, new restroom facility, outdoor exercise
stations, new park lighting, parking asphalt resurfacing, electric vehicle charging
stations, outdoor amphitheater seating, renovation of existing bridge over the lake
and lake cleanup and aeration repair. Restoration of the park and its amenities will
assist the City in promoting positive outdoor activities and restore recreational
opportunities to surrounding neighborhoods
Discussion
The project will revitalize the Seccombe Lake Park with new amenities, and
restoration of existing infrastructure. The Seccombe Lake Park Revitalization project
will re-create a sense of place and become a gathering point for people living and
working in the downtown area. It will be a place to hold events and gatherings. This

park will help build a safer community, provide a place for children to play and
interact, walkers to walk and exercise, and a place to relax and enjoy the outdoors.
Seccombe Lake Park is located in the center of the City, and has been serving the
surrounding community for many years. Due to neglect and vandalism, the Park has
not felt welcoming to visitors. The Seccombe Lake Park will receive a new look and
be recreated to meet the current recreational needs of the neighborhood and
community.
The following are the proposed improvements as part of this project:
•New Playground: Full replacement of existing playground with addition of
some all-inclusive playground equipment with rubberized turf and shade
canopies.
•Entry Point Paver Upgrades
•ADA Ramps Installation: Upgrade all pedestrian ramps to current standards
for accessibility.
•Picnic Tables: Picnic area with large shade cover.
•Pet Waste Stations
•Outdoor Amphitheater Seating
•Center Island Restoration: Extensive soil restoration, re-landscaping, and
stamped concrete/paver installed to replace existing sidewalk. Footbridge
Repair and Re-Paint. Replacement of wood planks and repainting of both
footbridges.
•Exercise Stations
•Tree Lighting: Decorative lighting for the date palms.
•Flagpole Lighting: Solar wrap up lighting on flagpoles.
•EV Charging Stations
•New Restroom/Kitchen/Storage Building
•Entire lake area clean-up: Complete removal of all lake debris that has
accumulated over the years.
•Renovate existing Gazebo
•Main Entry Archways
•Aquatic Art Pieces
•Renovation of Dirt/Grass Areas: Replacement of grass with rock and DG
ground layers with low water use plants.
•Upgrade Concession Area: Upgrades are to enhance visual atheistic and
accessibility
•Parking lot rehabilitation
•Tree planting and irrigation restoration
As part of the concept design phase, staff organized several community meetings
to discuss the proposed improvements, and the concept plans were prepared based
on feedback from the community.

Staff researched various vendors to construct a design concept for the new
playground layout. The plans were prepared with current public outreach activities
in mind (see Attachment 1: Concept Design Plans). A construction bid package,
which includes specifications and cost estimates, will be prepared as part of the final
design plans. Staff will return to the Council by end of the year (December 2023-
estimated) to appropriate a final project budget after construction bids are received.
Staff recommends that the Council approve the concept plans prepared for
Seccombe Lake Park Revitalization Project and direct staff to pursue a final design
for the project.
Project budget for the proposed work was previously established through approved
grant funding by the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians in the amount of
$1,000,000 and assignment of funds from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
held in reserve in the amount of $8,998,970 for the Seccombe Lake Park recreation
improvements. Staff will return to Council to appropriate final project budget after
construction bids are received.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The authorization of this agreement aligns with Key Target No. 4.: Economic Growth
& Development. Completion of this project will improve park assets by providing
ADA compliant recreational features, upgrade restroom facilities, and restore
irrigation and lighting systems to provide a safe and well-maintained community
park. The lake improvements will revitalize and enhance the character of the park.
Fiscal Impact
There is no General Fund impact associated with this action. Funding was
previously established and exists in the project for the proposed work.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California, approve the concept plans prepared for Seccombe Lake Park
Revitalization Project and direct staff to proceed with final design for the project.

5. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-112 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San
Bernardino, California, Confirming the Diagram and Assessment for Assessment
District Nos. 1025 and 1027 for Fiscal Year 2023-24.
Background
Assessment Districts are special districts that were formed when property owners
within a geographic area agreed to impose an additional fee on property to fund
services or improvements that benefitted only that specific geographic area. Each
district adopted a purpose that is unique to that district depending on the needs
identified by the property owners at the time of the formation of the district. A particular
district’s assessment may cover “Landscaping and Sewer Lift Stations,” while another
covers “Landscaping and Lighting.”
On May 17, 2023 the Mayor and City Council adopted resolutions declaring an intent
to levy and collect assessments on assessable lots and parcels of property within each
of the assessment districts previously established by the City of San Bernardino for
Fiscal Year 2023/24 pursuant to engineer’s reports prepared by Spicer Consulting
Group, LLC, the Engineer of Record, and called a public hearing on the proposed
assessments to be levied on assessable lots and parcels within each assessment
district for July 19, 2023. The public hearing process, to include the adoption of
subsequent resolutions, must be completed prior to levying the assessments for the
coming fiscal year. The notice of said hearing was duly published as required by law.
Discussion
The assessments proposed to be levied and collected from the owners of property
within each previously formed assessment district for fiscal year 2023/24 will pay the
costs of the following (varying by district, as discussed above): maintenance, servicing
and operating of public landscaping, landscaping and lighting, sewer lift stations,
landscaping and sewer lift stations, and landscaping, detention basin and storm drains
and appurtenant facilities.
The assessment of an annual fee upon properties within each assessment district
provides the revenue to offset the cost of maintenance of the public improvements
within each assessment district. The amount of the assessments which are proposed
to be levied on all parcels of assessable land within each assessment district has been
determined pursuant the methodology in each engineer’s report and is based on
special benefit conferred upon each such parcel from the payment of the cost of the
maintenance, servicing and operation of the public improvements.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
This project is consistent with Key Target No. 1: Improved Operational & Financial
Capacity and Key Target No. 3d: Improve the City’s appearance, cleanliness and
attractiveness. This project will contribute to ensure that the City is clean and attractive
and provide infrastructure designed for long term economic growth.
Packet Pg. 766
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund with this action.
The assessment on properties within the assessment districts provides revenue to
offset the cost of maintenance of public improvements. The engineering reports set
forth the “Maximum Allowable Assessment” for each parcel.
Conclusion
Hold public hearings and:
1. 1. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-108 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of

a. Resolution No. 2023-113, a Resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the
City of San Bernardino, California, Approving Third Amendment to the Exclusive
Franchise Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing, and
Disposal Services with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc., Adopting Maximum
Permitted Service Rates, and Finding this Action Exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (Option A, previously referred to as Rate Option 2), or
b. Resolution No. 2023-114, a Resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the
City of San Bernardino, California, Approving Third Amendment to the Exclusive
Franchise Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing, and
Disposal Services with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc., Adopting Maximum
Permitted Service Rates, and Finding this Action Exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (Option B, previously referred to as Rate Option 4).
Background
The City of San Bernardino (“City”) has an exclusive franchise agreement
(“Agreement”) with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. (“Burrtec”) to provide solid waste
collection, processing, and disposal services within the City. Recent changes to state
law relative to organic waste collection require modifications to the existing Agreement.
The proposed rate increases for solid waste services are necessary for Burrtec to
provide mandatory organic waste collection services pursuant to the SB 1383
Regulations.
On December 7, 2022, the Mayor and City Council approved Resolution No. 2022- 244
declaring the intention to conduct a Public Hearing on February 15, 2023, to consider
adjusting the Maximum Permitted Service Rates for integrated solid waste collection,
processing, and disposal services. Three rate options for solid waste rate increases
were proposed to the City Council to implement the SB 1383 requirements. The City
Council selected Option A, previously referred to as Rate Option 2, which was included
in the Proposition 218 Notice as the Maximum Permitted Service Rates to City of San
Bernardino customers. A copy of the Option 2 rates were attached as Exhibit A to the
draft Proposition 218 notice (for a February 15, 2023 hearing) in the December 7, 2022
agenda packet.
On February 15, 2023, the Public Hearing was closed. Staff reviewed the Proposition
218 Hearing Notice, and mailed out new notices on March 31, 2023, for a Public
Hearing on May 17, 2023.
On May 17, 2023, the City Council continued the Proposition 218 Hearing for June 21,
2023, and directed City staff to negotiate with the franchised hauler, Burrtec Waste
Industries Inc., to provide a new option with lower rates for Council review.
On June 21, 2023, City staff requested City Council continue the Proposition 218
Hearing to the July 19, 2023, Council Meeting, in order to wrap up negotiation options
with Burrtec.

SB 1383 Requirements
Proposed rate increases for Solid Waste Services are necessary for Burrtec to provide
mandatory organic waste collection services pursuant to the SB 1383 Regulations.
Under the SB 1383 Regulations, collection will utilize a 3-container system for residents
which will allow for commingling green waste and food waste in one organic waste
container, and a 4-container system for commercial customers. Residents and
businesses must separate organic waste (such as yard waste and food waste) from
other trash to be managed at a facility other than a landfill. To accomplish this, all
property owners, residents, and businesses will be required to enroll in collection
services for trash, recyclables, and organic waste. Recycling services include
processing of recyclables and organic wastes collected from all customers at state
regulated facilities. Other portions of the solid waste service rate include fees charged
to customers to provide inspections, enforcement, and oversight; maintain
infrastructure; provide education and outreach; meet the organic procurement
requirements, such as the acquisition of recovered compost and mulch; create an
edible food recovery program; and comply with state mandates relating to solid waste
service.
Proposition 218 Process
Public Notice of the proposed rate increase was sent to all property owners and
residents within the City’s service area 45 days prior to the Proposition 218 Public
Hearing. Property owners and customers may protest the proposed adjustment in
writing; either in person at the public hearing or prior to City Clerk’s office mailing
address, as shown on the notice. Formal written protests must include:
1. The identified property owner or tenant is in opposition to the proposed rate increase
to the fees.
2. The location of the identified parcel.
3. The name and signature of the property owner or tenant submitting the protest.
As of the date this staff report was published, the Public Works Department received
approximately 51 calls from customers. The calls generally focused on clarification of
the rate proposal, what the increase of rates were for, and requests for a Spanish copy
of the Proposition 218 Notice. To date, the City has received 144 formal protest letters.
The current monthly residential rate for solid waste collection services is $26.42. In
2022, CPI rate adjustment was deferred and did not take effect on July 1, 2022, as
negotiations were in process between the City and Burrtec.
With continuation of the Proposition 218 Public Hearing for the New Solid Waste Rates
and the Third Amendment to the Agreement with Burrtec Waste Industries Inc., two
rate structure options are brought for review:
•Option A (previously referred to as Rate Option 2) which aligns with the
Proposition 218 notice mailed on March 31, 2023, with some rates lowered
Packet Pg. 791

since the May 17, 2023 Council meeting; and,
•Option B, which presents a new option with rates lower than the Proposition 218

As seen in the table above, Option A locks in the maximum permitted service rate at a
5% cap, therefore the rates increase overtime in a uniform manner, with exception to
the pass through of organics processing and disposal costs. Option B provides lower
rates in the next 4 years due to Burrtec subsidizing to produce lower rates for the
residents. As Option B agreement term progresses, the costs will be dependent on the
market rate, which Burrtec will fully pass through.
Both options presented also have advantages.
•Option A (previously referred to as Rate Option 2) preserves most of the rate
structure locked into the 5% CPI cap and comes with a 5-year term extension.

•Option B’s initial implementation cost of SB 1383 requirements the first few
years is lower than Option A due to a 10-year term extension and will be
adjusted the first few years to fully reach the implementation cost.
•Expansion of the Quality of Life Program to address encampments
Changes to Rate Options A and B and/or the Third Amendment since the May 17, 2023
Council meeting:
•Option B was discussed with Burrtec for presentation before the City Council.
•Both Options A and B include rates that are lower than those published in the
Proposition 218 notice:
•For the approval of Option A (previously referred to as Rate Option 2),
the new rate for residential collections will increase from $26.42 to $36.17
per month ($9.75 per month increase), effective July 19, 2023.
•For the approval of the Option B, the new rate for residential collections
will increase from $26.42 to $30.71 per month ($4.29 per month
increase), effective July 19, 2023.
•A senior discount was added to both Options A and B.
•Options A and B clarified the sub-categories and rates for mobile home service.
•Language in the Third Amendment was amended to expand the Quality of Life
Program to address cleanup of encampments.
Third Amendment to the Franchise Agreement with Burrtec
Due to the SB 1383 mandate, the City is required to implement collection programs
for residential and commercial waste generators. Under the mandate, more services
will be required to implement a program that will keep the jurisdiction in compliance.
The Third Amendment to Agreement with Burrtec addresses SB 1383 requirements
by:
•Providing food organics collection services to single-family residential, multi-family
residential, and commercial customers.
•Providing education and outreach to customers on how to recycle organic waste.
•Providing additional information if a customer is considered a Tier 1 or Tier 2
commercial edible food generators
•Identification of Tier 1 commercial edible food generators to help in the creation of
edible food recovery program.
Packet Pg. 793

•Implementing:
•Record keeping;
•Route reviews; and
•Waste evaluations.
•Providing assistance with enforcement.
•Providing assistance in the procurement requirements to meet the City’s annual
recovered organic waste requirements.
•Updating Liquidated Damages provisions to include penalties for failure to comply
with SB 1383 requirements.
To provide the additional service required by state law, an increase in the rates was
proposed by Burrtec to fund the additional program. City staff met with Burrtec to
negotiate solid waste service rates to implement the SB 1383 Regulations. Per Section
21.1.3(c) of the franchise agreement, Burrtec may adjust the Maximum Permitted
Service Rates by an amount equal to the increase in costs due to a change in law.
The rates will be adjusted for an annual CPI adjustment beginning July 19, 2023 and
each July 1 thereafter, through and including July 1, 2027,using the 12-month annual
average percentage change for the most recent calendar year, compared to the prior
calendar year, in the All-Urban Consumers Index (CPI-U) , Not Seasonally Adjusted,
All items, Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, as published by the US Department
of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Commercial collection rates can have numerous variations and are based on the size,
type of materials accepted in the containers, and frequency of collections per week.
The SB 1383 Regulations took effect on January 1, 2022. It should be noted that if
there is further delay of the City’s implementation of the SB 1383 Regulations, the State
of California (CalRecycle) may issue a Notice of Violation, which the City will need to
correct, or else face penalties up to $10,000 a day. CalRecycle is aware of the efforts
of the City and Burrtec to negotiate the required services to put the City in compliance
with the SB 1383 Regulations.
End Dump Services and Self-Haul
During negotiations, commercial customers reached out for end dump services within
our jurisdiction. There is no current service rate for end dump truck services, and
therefore, Burrtec could not provide these services to projects requesting them. The
City requested the service rate for end dump trucks to be posted on the proposed rate
schedule to allow Burrtec to provide this service to customers requesting it. This added
rate is charged hourly, as trucks are loaded live.
Exempt from CEQA
The Resolution is not subject to the requirements of the California Environmental

Quality Act (“CEQA”). The approval of the Third Amendment it is not a “project” within
the meaning of 14 CCR Section 15378 (“State CEQA Guidelines”) because it has no
potential for resulting in direct or indirect physical change in the environment.
The charges are exempt from CEQA pursuant to California Public Resources Code
section 21080(b)(8) and State CEQA Guidelines section 15273(a) because such
charges are necessary and reasonable to fund the administration, operation,
maintenance, and improvements of the solid waste collection system.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
A Public Hearing to consider adjusting the Maximum Permitted Services Rates, as well
as the amendment of the Franchise Agreement between the City and Burrtec, meets
Key Target No. 3c: Improved Quality of Life by evaluating and enhancing the quality of
public safety services and Key Target No. 3d: To improve the City’s appearance,
cleanliness, and attractiveness.
Fiscal Impact
There are no costs incurred through the General Fund with this action. The General
Fund receives Franchise Fee revenues from Burrtec Disposal; therefore, rate
increases equate to increased revenues for the General Fund and have been
accounted for in the re-adoption of the FY 2023/24 Budget.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino,
California execute the following actions:
1. Proceed with the continued Public Hearing to receive public comment on the
proposed rate increases and Third Amendment to the City’s exclusive Franchise
Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing and Disposal Services
with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. (“Burrtec”); and
2. Close the Public Hearing after all public comments have been heard; and
3. Determine if written protests have been received from the owners and tenants from
parcels which are subject to the solid waste service rate increases, and, if a majority
protest is not received; and
4. Adopt either:

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

SECTION 1. That the foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein
by this reference.
SECTION 2. The City Council hereby approves the Charges, effective immediately, for
the Services at the maximum rates as set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein
by this reference.
SECTION 3. To the extent any Charges established by this Resolution are inconsistent
with any Charges previously adopted by the City Council, it is the explicit intention of the City
Council that the Charges adopted pursuant to this Resolution shall prevail.
SECTION 4. The City Council hereby approves the Third Amendment to the City of San
Bernardino’s Exclusive Franchise Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing,
and Disposal Services with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc., attached hereto as Exhibit B and
incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 5. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2024, and annually thereafter on July 1
through and including July 1, 2027, the maximum rates provided in Exhibit A shall be

July 19, 2023
Page 2 of 5
Packet Pg. 830
Resolution No. 2023-114
published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, subject to a 5% cap on
Maximum Permitted Service Rates. If the CPI is less than 5% for any year, the actual rates (not
including organic waste processing and disposal pass-through fees) charged to customers will be
less than the rates in the schedule in Exhibit A. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2024, and

be adjusted annually to account for the actual costs of processing and disposal fees for solid waste,

Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). The approval of this Resolution is not a “project” within
the meaning of Section 15378 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (“State CEQA
Guidelines”) because it has no potential for resulting in direct or indirect physical change in the
environment. The Charges are exempt from CEQA pursuant to California Public Resources Code
section 21080(b)(8) and State CEQA Guidelines section 15273(a) because such charges are
necessary and reasonable to fund the administration, operation, maintenance, and improvements
of the integrated solid waste collection system. The documents and materials that constitute the

subdivisions, sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared unconstitutional, invalid, or ineffective.

SECTION 9. The City Clerk shall attest and certify to the passage and adoption thereof.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
PROPOSITION 218 NOTIFICATION
TO PROPERTY OWNERS AND CUSTOMERS TO CONSIDER
INCREASES TO SOLID WASTE SERVICE RATES
Si usted necesita una copia de la carta en español, por favor visite el sitio https://www.sbcity.org/swrates o puede recoger una copia
en el departamento de Public Works (201 N E St, San Bernardino, CA, 92401 edificio B segundo piso).
Notice is hereby given that the City of San Bernardino (“City”) will conduct a public hearing on May 17, 2023, at 7:00 p.m.
at the Feldheym Central Library, 555 West 6th Street, San Bernardino, CA 92410 to consider adopting increases to the rates
for collection, processing, and disposal of solid waste within the City (collectively, “Solid Waste Services”).
The purpose of the public hearing is to consider all oral testimony and written protests to, and the adoption of, the
proposed rates. This 45-day notice is hereby given in accordance with Section 6(a) of Article XIII D of the California
Constitution.
Proposed Solid Waste Rates
Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. (“Burrtec”) provides Solid Waste Services within the City pursuant to an exclusive franchise
agreement. Burrtec bills the customers directly for the services. Rates for Solid Waste Services are evaluated periodically
to maintain an adequate rate structure to fund the costs of providing Solid Waste Services to residents and commercial
businesses.
The rate structure for monthly Solid Waste Services has four customer classes: (i) mobile home, (ii) single-family, (iii) multi-
family dwelling, and (iv) commercial. The rates for Solid Waste Services imposed on each customer class are determined
on the basis of (i) the size of the container serving the property; (ii) the type of container (e.g., trash, recycling, or
green/organic waste) serving the property; and (iii) the frequency of pickups per week.
The proposed rate increases for Solid Waste Services are necessary for Burrtec to provide mandatory organic waste
collection services pursuant to regulations implementing Senate Bill 1383 (Chapter 395, Statutes of 2016). The proposed
rates are calculated to recover the costs of providing weekly organic waste collection services, outreach, education,
monitoring, reporting and container labeling to comply with the SB 1383 regulations, and to proportionately allocate those
costs on a parcel basis among various customer classes. The rates to be imposed are set forth in Exhibit A of this Notice.
Annual Adjustments
• CPI Adjustment: The proposed maximum rates for Solid Waste Services in Exhibit A account for inflation, subject
to a 5% cap on Maximum Permitted Service Rates. Beginning July 1, 2023, and each July 1 thereafter, through
and including July 1, 2027, the then-current Maximum Permitted Service Rates will be adjusted by the 12-month
annual average percentage change for the most recent calendar year, compared to the prior calendar year, in the
All Urban Consumers Index (CPI-U), Not Seasonally Adjusted, All Items, Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, as
published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.
• Organic Waste Processing & Disposal Pass-through Fees: The proposed maximum rates for Solid Waste Services
in Exhibit A shall be adjusted annually to account for processing and disposal fees for organic waste. Beginning
July 1, 2023, and each July 1 thereafter, through and including July 1, 2027, the actual processing and disposal
costs for organic waste shall be passed through to customers in the rates.
The entire schedule of proposed maximum permitted rates, including miscellaneous services, are included with this notice
and can be found at the City Clerk’s office (see address below), or on the City of San Bernardino website at
http://sbcity.org/swrates.
Packet Pg. 860
Public Hearing and Written Protest Process
Any property owner whose property is to be subject to the proposed increases to the rates for the Solid Waste Services
and any tenant directly responsible for the payment of such fees (i.e., a customer of record) may submit a written protest
to the proposed rate increases; provided, however, only one protest will be counted per identified parcel.
Written protests must include the following:
(1) State that the identified property owner or tenant is in opposition to the proposed rate increase to the fees;
(2) The location of the identified parcel (by assessor’s parcel number or street address); and
(3) The name and signature of the property owner or tenant submitting the protest.
If the person submitting the written protest is the owner of record but was not shown on San Bernardino County’s last
equalized assessment roll as the property owner, that person must provide written evidence that the person is the
property owner.
Written protests may be submitted by mail or in person to the City Clerk’s Office, provided they are received prior 3 p.m.
on May 17, 2023. Written protests may also be submitted to the City Clerk at the Public Hearing prior to the close of the
public comment portion of the Public Hearing. Written protests submitted via e-mail will not be accepted. Please identify
on the front of the envelope for any protest, whether mailed or submitted in person, Attn: Solid Waste Rates.
Written protests may be submitted as follows:

The City Council will consider all written protests and hear and consider all oral comments to the proposed rate increases
for Solid Waste Services and the annual rate adjustments at the Public Hearing. Oral comments at the Public Hearing will
not qualify as formal protests unless accompanied by a written protest. Upon the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the
City Council will consider adoption of the rate increases to the Solid Waste Services and the annual rate adjustments as
described herein. If written protests against the proposed Solid Waste Services and annual rate adjustments are not
presented by a majority of the property owners of the identified parcels upon which the rates are proposed to be imposed
and tenants directly responsible for the payment of the Solid Waste Services fees, the City Council will be authorized to
impose the Solid Waste Services and annual rate adjustments as outlined above. If adopted, the proposed rate increases
will take effect beginning July 1, 2023. The City is conducting this Proposition 218 majority protest proceeding out of an
abundance of caution and without conceding the applicability of Proposition 218 to Solid Waste Services.

Page 80 of 126
Franchise Agreement Term April 1, 2016— March 31, 2026
Packet Pg. 957
City of San Bernardino Exclusive Franchise Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste
Collection, Processing, and Disposal Services With Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc.
Section shall apply in order to obtain prompt and expeditious resolution of any and all
disputes arising out of this Agreement.
29.2 Reference of Dispute. Any dispute seeking damages and any dispute seeking
equitable relief, such as but not limited to specific enforcement of any provision hereof,
shall be heard and determined by a referee pursuant to California Code of Civil
Procedure §§ 638-645.1. The venue of any proceeding hereunder shall be in San
Bernardino County, California.
29.2.1 Procedure for Appointment. The party seeking to resolve the dispute
shall file in court and serve on the other party a complaint describing the matters
in dispute. Service of the complaint shall be as prescribed by law. Within not
more than fifteen business days after the date of service, the parties shall apply
to the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service ("JAMS") of San Bernardino
County to nominate a minimum of five prospective referees. If the parties are
unable to approve a referee from the JAMS panel within ten business days after
written request to do so by any party, then the parties, starting with City, shall
alternate in striking one prospective referee at a time until only one referee
remains.
29.2.2 Ex Parte Communications Prohibited. Neither party may communicate
separately with the referee after the referee has been selected. All subsequent
communications between a party and a referee shall be delivered simultaneously
to the other party. This provision shall not apply to communications made to

settlement briefs that the parties have agreed to submit to the referee.
29.2.3 Cooperation. The parties shall cooperate diligently with one another and
the referee and shall perform such acts as may be necessary to obtain a prompt
and expeditious resolution of the dispute. If either party refuses to cooperate
diligently, and the other party, after first giving notice of its intent to rely on the
provisions of this Section 29, incurs additional expenses or attorneys' fees solely
as a result of such failure to diligently cooperate, or incurs expenses or attorney's
fees and costs as a result of the other party's violation of Code of Civil Procedure
128.5, the referee may award such additional expenses and attorneys' fee to
the party giving such notice, even if such party is not the prevailing party in the
dispute.
29.2.4 Discovery. The referee shall set a discovery schedule and shall schedule
the matter for hearing within 60 days of filing, unless City and Contractor agree
otherwise, or unless the referee shall determine otherwise. Any party to the
hearing may issue a request to compel reasonable document production from the

other party, subject to the limitations of Section 22, limiting evidence to the
administrative record. Disputes concerning the scope of document production
and enforcement of document requests shall be subject to agreement by the
parties, or if agreement is not reached within twenty (20) days of a document
request, then by disposition by order of the referee. Any document request shall
be subject to the proprietary rights and rights of privilege of the parties, and the
referee shall adopt procedures to protect such rights. Except as may be agreed
by the parties, or ordered by the referee, no other form of discovery shall be
available to the parties.
29.2.5 Standards for Decision. The provisions of California Code of Civil
Procedure, §§ 640, 641, 642, 643, 644 and 645 shall be applicable to dispute

of California Code of Civil Procedure, §§ 644 and 645, the parties agree that the
referee shall decide issues of fact and law submitted by the parties for decision in
the same manner as required for a trial by court as set forth in California Code of
Civil Procedure, §§ 631.8 and 632, and California Rules of Court, Rule 232. The
referee shall try and decide the dispute according to all of the substantive and
procedural law of the state of California, unless the parties stipulate to the
contrary.
29.2.6 Evidence and Findings. The referee shall consider the administrative
record, including the Notice of Deficiencies, Contractor's response to the Notice
of Deficiencies, the decision of the City Representative, the Notice of Appeal, the
decision of the City Manager, the Notice of Appeal to the City Council, and the
decision of the City Council, in addition to other relevant evidence. Before issuing
findings, the Referee shall submit a proposed ruling, setting forth proposed
findings of fact and conclusions of law, to counsel for the Parties, for comment.
When the referee has decided the dispute, the referee shall also cause the
preparation of a judgment based on said decision.
29.2.7 Remedial Authority. A referee to whom a matter is referred shall have the
authority to (i) order either party to undertake remedial action to cure the breach
and to prevent occurrence of similar breaches in the future; (ii) assess damages
and/or levy a penalty consistent with the terms of this Agreement or(iii)find there
has been no breach.
29.2.8 Stay Pending Entry of Final Judgment. Except as provided in Section
26.3 with respect to draws on a Performance Bond, until final judgment is
entered from the referee proceeding under the foregoing provisions and the time
for appeal or other post judgment petition has expired, the imposition or
enforcement of any penalties or sanctions provided in this Agreement and related

Packet Pg. 959
City of San Bernardino Exclusive Franchise Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste
Collection, Processing, and Disposal Services With Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc.
to the subject matter of the hearing shall be stayed. The referee may modify or
cancel any proposed penalties or sanctions upon a finding that the party subject
thereto acted with substantial justification, or if the interests of justice so require.
29.2.9 Allocation of Referee's Costs. The referee's costs for the proceeding
shall be apportioned by the referee. The costs of the proceeding shall be borne
equally by the parties to the dispute initially, but the prevailing party in such
proceeding shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs of the referee as
apportioned by the referee. If either party refuses to pay its share of the costs of
the proceeding, at the time(s) required, the other party may do so, in which event
that party will be entitled to recover(or offset)the amount advanced, with interest
at the maximum rate permitted by law, even if that party is not the prevailing
party. The referee shall include such costs in the judgment or award.
29.3 Decision. The decision of the referee may be excepted to in accordance with
Code of Civil Procedure § 645.
Section 30. City's Additional Remedies
In addition to the remedies set forth above. City shall have the following rights:
30.1 Contracts with Others. The right to contract with others to perform the services
otherwise to be performed by Contractor, in the event Contractor should be in material
breach of its duties to provide those services, or is otherwise unable to provide the
services addressed by this Agreement.
30.2 Damages and/or Injunctive Relief. Both parties recognize and agree that in
the event of a breach under the terms of this Agreement by Contractor, City may suffer
irreparable injury and incalculable damages sufficient to support injunctive relief to
enforce the provisions of this Agreement and to enjoin the breach.
30.3 City's Damages for Failure to Achieve Diversion Requirements. Contractor
agrees that its failure to achieve the diversion requirements set forth in Section 5, arising
from failure to make reasonable efforts to maximize diversion in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, or its breach of the requirements of Section
5.1.1 related to waste diversion, shall be a material breach of this Agreement. If
CalRecycle, or its successor agency, were to impose administrative civil penalties
against City, then the City's damages for Contractor's material breach in its failure to
achieve the diversion goals for the City as required by this Agreement, shall include, but
not be limited to such administrative civil penalties, attorneys' costs and fees and City's
staff time devoted to the resolution of the administrative civil penalties against City.

City of San Bernardino Exclusive Franchise Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste
Collection, Processing, and Disposal Services With Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc.
30.4 Liquidated Damages. The parties further acknowledge that consistent and
reliable collection service is of utmost importance to City and that City has considered
and relied on Contractor's representations as to its quality of service commitment in
awarding the Agreement to it. The parties further recognize that some quantified
standards of performance are necessary and appropriate to ensure consistent and
reliable service and performance. The parties further recognize that if Contractor fails to
achieve the performance standards, or fails to submit required documents in a timely
manner, City, and City's residents and businesses will suffer damages and that it is and
will be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the exact amount of
damages. Therefore, in addition to City's right to treat such non-performance as a
breach of this Agreement, the parties agree that the liquidated damages amount defined
in this Section may represent reasonable estimates of the amount of such damages
considering all of the circumstances existing on the effective date of this Agreement,
including the relationship of the sums to the range of harm to City, customers and the
community as a whole that reasonably could be anticipated and the anticipation that
proof of actual damages would be costly or impractical. In placing their initials at the
places provided, each party specifically confirms the accuracy of the statements made
above and the fact that each party has had ample opportunity to consult with legal
counsel and obtain an explanation of the liquidated damage provisions at the time that
the Agreement was made.
30.5 Procedure for Review of Liquidated Damages. If the City elects not to
terminate this Agreement for breach, the City Representative may assess liquidated
damages pursuant to this Section on a monthly basis. At the end of each month during
the term of this Agreement, the City Representative shall issue a written notice to
Contractor ("Notice of Assessment") of the liquidated damages assessed and the basis
for each assessment.
30.5.1 The assessment shall become final unless, within ten (10) calendar days
of the date of the notice of assessment, Contractor provides a written request for
a meeting with the City Manager to present evidence that the assessment should
not be made.
30.5.2 The City Representative shall schedule a meeting between Contractor
and the City Manager or the Manager's designee as soon as reasonably possible
after timely receipt of Contractor's request.
30.5.3 The City Manager or the Manager's designee shall review Contractor's
evidence and render a decision sustaining or reversing the liquidated damages
as soon as reasonably possible after the meeting. Written notice of the decision
shall be provided to Contractor.

within ten (10) calendar days of the date of the Notice of Assessment, the City
Representative's determination shall be final and Contractor shall submit
payment to City no later than that tenth (10th) day
30.5.5 City's assessment or collection of liquidated damages shall not prevent
City from exercising any other right or remedy, including the right to terminate
this Agreement, for Contractor's failure to perform the work and services in the
