[0:00] Valerie hosted the featured artist showcase spotlighting the work of Southern California artist Donna Moran.

[0:06] Known for her postmodernist style, Moran's exhibit featured geometric abstraction and minimalism reflecting cultural concepts through everyday symbols and patterns.

[0:17] Here's a sneak peek.

[0:19] I am a historian, and I'm a teacher, a friend maker, and a close artist.

[0:30] Basically, my work is rooted in the geometry of abstraction, and I'm excited to be here in

[0:42] and especially excited that the committee has selected, I have worked to be shown to the community.

[0:57] During my school years, and high school, it was very limited for a girl like myself to enter in the heart.

[1:14] Most girls would become either a nurse or a secretary, a teacher, that sort of thing.

[1:25] Yeah, and there was no emotional support.

[1:31] Also highlights, where we give you the rundown on what's happening in your community.

[1:37] We had exciting things on the agenda.

[1:40] First, we had a proclamation for April 2025 as National Donate Life Month.

[1:47] Then we celebrated the Sierra Avenue Widening Project, which received the project of the Year Award

[1:53] for outstanding roadway capacity improvement project from APWA.

[2:00] Congratulations on this achievement.

[2:03] We also sworn in new Fontana police officers and recognize employees of the month.

[2:08] Congratulations to you all and thank you for your commitment to Fontana.

[2:14] Fontana was awarded $500,000 in grant funding from the County of San Bernardino's community

[2:20] development and housing department, which will help support the paths on-going programs and operations

[2:27] to assist those in need. Coming to the Forge District is Musaic Artwork, placed on the side of the

[2:35] new downtown parking structure, J.K. Musaic will be crafting a stained glass masterpiece.

[2:43] To provide additional support to the Forge District, a design build contract was awarded for a

[2:48] The second parking structure near Sierra Avenue.

[3:20] Today's meeting will consist of city council and public finance and authority.

[4:45] Yes, thank you, Madam Mayor. Good afternoon.

[4:47] This afternoon, pursuant to the post to the agenda.

[4:49] The council met to consider both items listed on the closed session agenda.

[4:52] They received briefing from staff and a legal council and provided direction.

[4:56] But there is no reportable action.

[4:58] Thank you, Madam Mayor.

[4:59] Thank you.

[5:00] So today we will be adjourning today's meeting and memory of Montana residents, Hongdonk Kim, that are known as JD Kim.

[5:09] At this time, that brings us to our special presentations.

[5:16] We are going to be recognizing our officers, the February 2025 employees of the month, my colleagues to join me as Captain Binks comes.

[5:33] Thank you, Mayor and Council.

[5:35] It is my privilege to present our February 2025 employees on our sworn side to Officer Dustin Mullins, Officer Andrew O'Brien, and Officer Sammy Sines.

[5:55] Officer Mullins and Officer Sines are both field training officers with us, and Officer Andrew O'Brien is assigned to our patrol division.

[6:03] And on January 25th of this year, they were dispatched to the area of Tokyo and arrow and reference a fight that it occurred.

[6:12] There wasn't very much information.

[6:14] School PD had gotten there and the investigation was too big for them to handle so they contacted us for help.

[6:19] The officers arrived on scene and there was a huge scene blood everywhere, but everybody was gone.

[6:26] They located a machete with blood evidence on it.

[6:30] located at Shane with a lock attached to it with blood evidence on it and there was nobody there.

[6:36] So they they initiated an investigation at that time.

[6:40] They checked local hospitals and found out that two gentlemen were driven to Arrowhead Regional

[6:47] Hospital for life threatening injuries.

[6:49] They were dropped off there.

[6:51] These guys obviously put two and two together and realized this this might be in law enforcement

[6:56] we call that a clue that this might be a clue of what we're looking for and they may contact

[7:00] with the victims and they received the information that they were involved in an altercation

[7:07] at Arrow and Tokyo in our city. They went back to the scene, collected evidence, and through

[7:14] their investigation, they did extensive investigation, located three suspects in the assault

[7:19] with a deadly weapon case and were able to get all three positively identified, excuse me,

[7:26] and in custody without any incident.

[7:29] These are usually cases, most police departments

[7:31] would show up on seeing locked on the scene

[7:32] and called their detectives to come out and handle.

[7:34] These guys just proved once again

[7:38] the fantastic work that our patrol officers

[7:40] do on a daily basis and handled the case

[7:43] from start to finish.

[7:44] Got three violent offenders off the street.

[7:47] Both victims were able to recover from their injuries.

[7:50] And so for that fantastic investigation,

[7:52] the great work these guys do,

[7:54] They were chosen as our February employees of the month. Good job guys.

[8:02] First of all, we have a great community. We'd like to thank all of you for your great service.

[8:08] And so we'll start with the council member of the conference.

[8:12] I get to recognize Officer Dustin Mullins.

[8:22] I have Police Officer Samuel Sinus.

[8:30] Police Officer Andrew O'Brien.

[8:44] Police Officer Dominic Galvin?

[8:52] Officer Galvin and Corporal Brad Gooth are out working

[8:55] right now. So they are not able to be here, but I humbly accept their, this and their honors

[9:01] that we say at the Academy Awards. Okay, thank you. Thank you so much. Let's get them a big

[9:06] hand and we would like a picture.

[9:15] Oh, it's all there.

[9:26] Another hand.

[9:54] Now Captain, means you have another award, correct?

[10:01] Okay, it is also my honor to present our February 20, 25 professional staff employee of the month to justice Montgomery.

[10:18] So, justice works in the finance department for our police department and she's in charge of keeping track of all of the department credit cards that we have, including that our gas cards.

[10:29] So we have a lot of police officers, our motor officers, who, they have to get special gas in their, in their motorcycles, our undercover units that are all over Southern California driving around. So she's in charge of that. She recognized that we were having an issue with our gas cards and immediately jumped into action. She met with vendors. She met with our public works department. She works with our finance department and just this, worked with the new vendor and got our, our cards change, got them fixed. So our officers could be out there.

[10:59] with gas in their vehicles driving around.

[11:02] This is just a small example of what she does.

[11:05] She works extremely well with our professional staff and our sworn staff.

[11:10] Everybody loves justice at the police department.

[11:13] She trained all of us police officers on how to use these new cards,

[11:16] because we're not smart enough to figure it out on our own.

[11:19] But she just has a great attitude.

[11:22] She's wonderful to work with.

[11:24] And we love having her with us at the police department.

[11:26] and for just not only the works she did in February,

[11:29] but just the work she does on the daily basis.

[11:31] She was awarded with our Employee of the Month.

[11:34] Congratulations.

[11:39] Ms. Montgomery, have your certificate.

[11:41] Thank you for all you do for the city.

[12:11] Thank you, Captain Binks.

[12:15] At this time, we're going to have a measure T,

[12:18] CIP program presentation by our city engineer,

[12:22] probably works director, Duke Kim.

[12:24] But let's give all of our police department

[12:38] Good afternoon. Thanks for the opportunity to provide a brief summary of the measure

[12:44] T usage that staff to work since the sales tax approval occurred.

[12:55] Approximately, the

[12:57] Department of Public Works and Engineering were told that we were receiving between $21 million

[13:01] to $23 million depends on the economy and situation annually for the infrastructure improvement.

[13:09] So what we allocated is a 50% of that amount will go to payment. We have a limitation.

[13:14] 25% will go to parking landscape improvements. 8% is going to facility improvement and then

[13:21] under 17% will go to the special projects.

[13:30] Since payment rehabilitation is the one who is getting the most

[13:33] amount of money. I would like to go through the little bit of detail of what's

[13:38] Intel to maintain the pavement in the city of Fontana. The purpose of this

[13:44] pavement management is making sure there were last the pavement as long as

[13:49] possible but also creating the safe road condition for the travelers and

[13:54] in pedestrian. We had it back in 2022 pavement management assessment plan and our goal

[14:01] is a striped to maintain our pavement condition to 70 and to implement that strategy, we developed

[14:08] the seven year pavement management plan and total funding, we're estimating about $70 million.

[14:15] Not all $70 million coming from the measure T, but $10 million coming from measure T, it's

[14:22] going to come into it annually. SB 1 fund is approximately $5.5 million going into the pavement management

[14:29] and general funds participating about $1.5 million annually.

[14:38] Current status of the pavement, our road is we have a currently 600 one cent online miles.

[14:46] This number is going to be increasing when development occurs in the city and we're accepting the brand new road into the city,

[14:53] which equivalent to 146 lane miles.

[15:00] We completed about 149 lane miles of the payment improvements required annual budget recommended annual budget from the latest payment management report is about $22 million.

[15:14] With our plan, the next seven years payment rehabilitation project will improve the 476 lane miles, which will invest about $19 million.

[15:26] to go over what's included in the payment

[15:29] rehabilitations. Of course, we have

[15:31] an asphalt paving is a part of it.

[15:34] Slurry-Sill is also part of it.

[15:36] We cannot do grinding asphalt and

[15:39] replacing asphalt all the time.

[15:41] It's causes just tremendously expensive.

[15:45] However, Slurry-Sill will enhance

[15:47] the continuing elongating the payment surface

[15:51] like because the oils and sands

[15:54] will block some of the little crack and then preserving

[15:57] payment a little bit longer.

[15:59] We also include the crack seal.

[16:01] The things that we don't really recognize

[16:03] is also ADA compliance.

[16:06] When we mill the AC and then put the AC back in,

[16:10] the state and federal law requires upgrading ADA compliance

[16:13] nearby that location, which costs quite a bit of money.

[16:17] So that particular aspect will be part of the payment

[16:20] applications, tree removal and replacement of the tree is also part of it because one of the

[16:27] reason that payments getting damage is the tree roots or damaging the road. As for patching

[16:32] what will be part of it also. This table is sorted by the districts, so I would like to highlight

[16:40] some of the major projects in district one. Next seven years the village of heritage and hundreds

[16:47] which we will receive approximately 35 million dollars

[16:52] worth of payment we have.

[16:54] The district two is the big chunk of the middle area.

[16:58] That particular area, we just did a zero winding.

[17:01] And so area looks a little bit lower,

[17:04] but we do have a significant amount of payment

[17:07] we have going to be occurring next seven years.

[17:10] Third district salaries communities

[17:12] because it has a lot of local track home.

[17:15] requires a lot of ADA compliance. They're having about $41 million and then district 4 has a significant amount of money coming into

[17:24] Merrill, San Bernardino, and is city boundary area about 16 mil and then other areas total about 10 mil.

[17:30] So total of about $26,27 million. This is estimated we're having based on the current projects that we're having.

[17:39] It may go up, it may go down depends on the economy.

[17:43] The next item is a parking lens, giving improvements.

[17:47] I create a spreadsheet to highlight the year one and year two.

[17:52] So year one that we're focusing on the field replacement,

[17:55] which has artificial alternatives around the list.

[17:59] The field's been there for over 10 years.

[18:02] It's about 10 years ago.

[18:04] And the condition that we are out of warranty and we need to replace those.

[18:08] So the replacing for turb, it's going to be causing about 3.2 million dollars.

[18:14] Also next year, there were including the Sibel Park, the Pickable Court.

[18:19] We're estimating currently about 2 million dollars.

[18:23] And then ongoing work for the enhanced safety of our park user that we are installing

[18:29] park security cameras with the fiber optic lines.

[18:35] The year two, we are focusing on

[18:37] part in tutor parking lot of grade with a drainage improvement.

[18:41] The parking lot is self having a some drainage issues.

[18:45] So it having some of the asphalt railroad ties getting damaged.

[18:50] So we will improve that.

[18:51] And also we have a water slide replacement.

[18:54] Those slides been there for a while.

[18:56] We've been putting some bandaid work to lasting for this long.

[19:01] So Martin Tutor and Fontana Park will get water slide replacement.

[19:05] and also installation of the Park Security Camera with a Vyrosion Vyroptix.

[19:12] The next item is the Facility Improvements.

[19:15] This is a proactive maintenance work that we like to do

[19:19] instead of waiting very last minute until AC goes down

[19:22] or heaters now working when servicier coming in

[19:25] based on our historical repair that we are proposing

[19:29] these facilities to be proactively replaced or maintained.

[19:35] So HVAC Aquatics, Jesitana, Artifo Public Works, Waterhitter, Jesitana, DSO, Library,

[19:44] Heritage Center, and Heritage Center needs to get some upgrade in the floor, exterior,

[19:51] interior paints.

[19:52] And that's going to be occurring year one.

[19:56] You're two, it's just a little bit.

[20:00] That we are including historical societies, flooring in the library needs to be replaced, and then

[20:07] the same thing paints for the various different facilities.

[20:10] The second year, because the floor for the library is costing a little bit more than other

[20:16] things, so we're up to $1.9 million for spending.

[20:22] And the last item is a special project.

[20:26] ADA ramp of grade, we identified that if we can do the ADA ramp of grade ahead of time that

[20:32] our Paving Project is going to move much faster.

[20:35] So we are focusing on upgrading in various areas and steps are right now identifying which

[20:42] area needs to be done first, conjunction with their Paving Projects and the remainder funds

[20:49] going to be utilized for the gap funding for capital improvement projects, especially projects

[20:54] that we see the federal and the state grant that the excess amount of the project cost

[21:01] and the project is going up pretty fast. The project cost is, so we're trying to reserve some

[21:07] fund for that project funding sources. That completes my presentation. If you have any question,

[21:15] and I can answer some of them, and then my staff

[21:17] are here to answer any questions.

[21:20] Are there any questions?

[21:23] I have a comment.

[21:24] Good job.

[21:25] Thank you.

[21:27] I will say that I'm not, I mean,

[21:30] I grew up in the South and the Fontaine not Southridge,

[21:32] but all my friends lived in Southridge,

[21:34] and so I am pretty sure the streets were last refaved

[21:37] when I was a kid when they were done, most likely.

[21:40] So I'm a static that we're putting that much investment

[21:42] down in the Southridge and improving those the streets

[21:44] there because they are in dire need of them and so I'm a little sad that we neglected them and

[21:49] unfortunately had other things that we had to take care of in the city for so long but

[21:52] on the static that we're finally putting together the budget necessary to maintain our streets

[21:56] and infrastructure and the correct format moving forward. I did notice obviously that we'd have

[22:01] that we have a little bit of a gap for my colleagues and I'd figure out as long as well as you staff

[22:05] about $5 million in operating funds every single year for the proper maintenance to get us up to

[22:09] the proper ratio of 70% or 70 on that side of things.

[22:14] So I look forward to that challenge and how

[22:16] we're going to overcome it together.

[22:19] And then I also question for you on the field side of things.

[22:23] So when we're replacing the turf fields,

[22:24] I mean, typically it just says our city of Montana

[22:27] logo or something like that on the center side of things.

[22:29] And it's just a turf field, right?

[22:32] Daniel or Matt, I mean, is there anything keeping us

[22:34] from selling off sponsorships on the names of the field

[22:37] for the 10 years that they're being used?

[22:40] We can certainly look into that, but I mean, I'm just trying to figure out offsetting cost to other things necessary.

[22:48] We can take a look at

[22:51] that.

[22:52] Cool. That's all I have. Thank you very much. Good job.

[22:56] To be back.

[22:57] Can I mention two things. One is, you know, we want to thank our community for the measure T and really the purpose of this presentation is to show, you know, we made a commitment that we would spend half of those funds on investing in our infrastructure.

[23:11] and so the intent is really to market those projects where we're going to be investing those funds.

[23:18] Also, it's just important note that priorities change new times.

[23:21] This is a seven-year plan, so the council may move a project here there, but this is fluid.

[23:29] And so I just want the council to be aware of that, but I agree, I appreciate public works putting this together.

[23:37] And again, I'm very thankful to the community for making these investments.

[23:42] Thank you, are there any other comments?

[23:45] I'm sure we have more updates coming soon.

[23:47] Absolutely.

[23:48] Thank you.

[23:50] This concludes our presentation.

[23:53] At this time that brings us to public comment.

[23:56] Good afternoon.

[23:57] And thank you again for attending this meeting of City Council.

[24:00] The Brown Act provides that members of the public may offer comment on any item of interest

[24:04] within the subject matter jurisdiction of the City Council.

[24:08] not any action item, including items on the consent calendar.

[24:13] What this means is that the council welcomes and encourages your input on issues of

[24:18] city business and on action items on today's agenda.

[24:21] Issues of city business do not include personal attacks on city officials or city staff.

[24:28] While we acknowledge your right to comment on your actions on our actions or activities

[24:33] or respect the city issues in business.

[24:36] We will not tolerate purely personal comments,

[24:40] not having to do with official performance of city duties.

[24:44] Please do not use profanity, name, car, and the other behavior

[24:47] that would disrupt the proceedings this afternoon.

[24:51] Speech or other activities such as yelling from the audience,

[24:54] applauding, finger snapping, that disrupts the...

[25:00] Orderly business as a council will not be allowed. After a warning, continue behavior that disrupts the meeting, may result

[25:08] you being asked to leave the meeting. Just want to thank everyone in advance for cooperating. At this time,

[25:15] City Clerk key, do you have any public communication requests? Mayor, we have one request from Daniel.

[25:22] how we are chamber of commerce executive director. Okay, come forward.

[25:33] Hello, I'm the only one today. Good afternoon, Mayor Warren Council members and staff.

[25:38] Thank you, City Clerk key. My name is Danielle Holly. I'm the executive director of the best chamber of commerce around the Fontana Chamber of Commerce.

[25:47] And we are bringing you today, our third quarter report. I can't believe we're already getting into our fourth quarter of our year.

[25:53] We have been serving our local business community for the last 100 in 11 years, marking that

[25:59] here in 2025, and we are doing some amazing work.

[26:03] In the third quarter, I have some highlights I would like to share, probably our most notable

[26:07] event was our 2025 State of the City event that we hosted in collaboration with the City

[26:13] of Fontana.

[26:14] This was an amazing event.

[26:16] As always, every year we are always looking for ways to elevate what we have done in the past

[26:20] and mayors shout out to you for doing such an amazing presentation, really wrapping up 2024 and

[26:25] vision casting for 2025. At that event, we're hoping to exceed the 500 mark for attendance.

[26:32] We hit 600 and 8 this year. And we just continue to grow. So we're very proud of that. We also

[26:39] had our second annual TASA Fontana event, which was an enormous success and really looking forward

[26:43] to continuing to build that as well every year at state of the city. We partnered with the County

[26:49] of San Bernardino workforce economic development program that helps create jobs and supports

[26:54] employers in the local area of this quarter.

[26:57] We're always aware of upcoming layoffs being proactive in job placements and further

[27:02] strengthening our commitment to placing job seekers with great employers.

[27:06] On March 12, the chamber partnered with San Bernardino County to host a collaborative

[27:10] job fair.

[27:11] That was a great success held at Jack Abulit Community Center.

[27:14] We offer diverse employment opportunities to our job seekers and we will do this moving forward at least once a year with the county of San Bernardino.

[27:23] Since January, our chamber has hosted three chamber lunches at the Jesse Turner Center.

[27:28] All three lunches were well attended by city representatives and members of the business community.

[27:32] On average, we had about 115 attendees at each event.

[27:36] Throughout this last quarter, we welcomed 33. Yes, 33 new businesses as official chamber members.

[27:44] We have over 530 members now, which we are very proud of. We conducted 12 ribbon cuttings for local businesses.

[27:51] Hosted 3 members, seminars, 3 business networking meetings and 3 networking at new meetings.

[27:57] We've been very, very busy. Our next monthly luncheon is set for Thursday, May 8.

[28:01] So everyone, please save the date because our very own mayor, Oquinetta Warren, is going to

[28:05] be our speaker and we just can't wait to hear the amazing updates that you have for

[28:09] our business community.

[28:11] As always, if you have any questions, you can visit our website, www.FontanaChamber.org for

[28:17] more information come down to our office or right here on the corner of Arrow and Sierra

[28:21] and we'd be happy to take care of you guys.

[28:23] Thank you.

[28:24] Thank you.

[28:26] That concludes our speakers.

[28:27] Mayor?

[28:28] All right.

[28:28] at this time, that brings us to our consent calendar,

[28:35] and to my knowledge, no items have been

[28:38] full. Mayor, I'd like to pull item K for a report, please. Item K, would you have a question

[28:46] or a comment or a need more information? I have a question on died.

[28:57] Okay, what is your question?

[28:59] I'd like to ask you to staff report first and then I'll ask my question. So now you want to staff

[29:03] important then you'll give a question. Yes. Okay. Thank you for the for the public's

[29:10] purposes. This item is related to the construction of Southridge dog parks.

[29:24] If you

[29:24] could just give us a quick overview and then we'll see what the question is. Yeah, the project,

[29:31] the project is constructing the two dog park in the Southridge. This is a phase one of the dog park

[29:38] this one consists of the grading and then constructing of the parking

[29:42] not area and then taking of the drainage. Second phase will come later on

[29:48] installing, fencing and trees and other benches and type of things.

[29:53] The location is, I think, Kataba in the Edison's right away.

[29:58] It's within the Edison's...

[30:00] It's the easement area we own the right away.

[30:03] Okay, the question?

[30:05] So, do we have a completion date when this will be held?

[30:10] Overall, I believe it's going to be done by fall this year, the including phase 1 and phase 2.

[30:16] Okay, I didn't read a completion date, so I just want to make sure the residents know that it's coming.

[30:23] We can't hold any way to the date, but close to when they expected, because they've been waiting a long time for a dark part.

[30:28] I just want to make sure that we're happy and they have an idea when it would be completed.

[30:33] Yeah, we're targeting the fall and we're working with the Edison's because it's an

[30:36] easement area that we have to get so there's a number variable in there but we're trying very hard.

[30:41] All right. Thank you for your report.

[30:43] Are there any more questions regarding the consent calendar? Thank you for that report.

[30:49] Now, with that, can I have a motion to approve the consent calendar for both city council and public

[30:54] Finance and authority.

[30:56] Move the consent calendars.

[30:59] Councilmember Sino's seconds.

[31:00] Okay.

[31:01] Have a motion the second.

[31:02] Please cash your vote.

[31:11] Five in favor.

[31:12] The motion is passed.

[31:14] Motion pass.

[31:15] It brings us to our new business item.

[31:18] Introduction in first reading of ordinance number.

[31:20] 1968 adding article seven.

[31:24] To Fontana municipal code chapter.

[31:26] 16 regarding camping in the city.

[31:28] We have Deputy City Manager Ray Ebert providing a staff report.

[31:39] Good afternoon, Mayor and Council.

[31:40] My name is Ray Ebert, Deputy City Manager for administrative services with City of Fontana.

[31:44] Additionally, we have Curtis Wright, the attorney who helped me draft this ordinance,

[31:50] as well as who would be responsible for prosecuting any cases that may arise from this ordinance.

[31:57] If you have any questions for him or I would be happy to answer those at the end of my report.

[32:02] report.

[32:06] One of the key responsibilities of the city is to keep our residents safe, our

[32:12] fleet of streets clean, and to keep the city a presentable place so that people would want

[32:17] to come to and live. At times we've had folks who have decided that they want to camp in some

[32:22] of our public spaces, and historically we've been limited in what we can do with those folks

[32:28] because of a ruling occurred in 2018 called Martin vs. Boise.

[32:35] The U.S. Court of Appeals, ninth court of Appeals ruled that

[32:40] a municipality cannot criminalize someone for camping if there is no available beds or shelters

[32:46] in the region for them.

[32:49] This prevented us if we could not provide a bed for anyone who was deciding to camp in our public spaces.

[32:54] We couldn't prosecute them or remove them if we did not have shelter or a bed available to them.

[33:01] In June of 2024, in the case of grants pass versus Johnson, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the element that was restricting

[33:10] our ability to prosecute these folks was related to the eighth amendment.

[33:14] And that was that we would implement and cruel and unusual punishment for folks.

[33:17] They removed the fact that not having shelter for someone was cruel and unusual punishment.

[33:25] Therefore, a number of cities have chosen since then to enact anti-camping ordinances.

[33:31] In fact, the State of California Governor issued an executive order not long after this ruling recommending

[33:39] that most jurisdictions implement some sort of camp encampment removal effort and actually did some public

[33:49] Outreach along those lines, based on all of that staff was directed to draft and amendment to our municipal code that would eliminate the right to camp on our public spaces and give some direction as to how we would implement those rules.

[34:06] This ordinance in summary gives our guidance to our police department on how to implement rules against camping in public spaces.

[34:15] and those effectively are, you cannot inhibit anyone's free access to public spaces or the right

[34:22] of way or a sidewalk, a doorways that are considered public space, certainly any city spaces

[34:28] or any space that the public has a right to.

[34:31] If one were to in direct any encampment and there's some definitions in the ordinances to what

[34:36] encampments may entail, but generally a bed or a tent or personal item strewn about a public

[34:42] space, those can't be left there

[34:45] unattended, they can't, if they're deemed to be an encampment, we will give the the camper

[34:53] and hours notice.

[34:55] One hour's notice that they must remove their items from that area or they'll be potentially

[34:59] copy.

[35:00] We will have, we define rules as to how long we will confiscate and keep personal items. There's some issues with if some of these personal items are deemed unsafe because they're dirty or they're infested with various things.

[35:17] We can destroy that personal property because it's deemed as a public health hazard.

[35:24] We will restore personal items for up to 60 days.

[35:30] We'll handle pets, for example, we have at the moment we have capacity to deal with animals

[35:36] if they need to be removed from the site.

[35:39] And there's some additional language in here that stipulates that simply moving from one spot

[35:43] down the road to another spot doesn't constitute removing the encampments.

[35:47] So basically one cannot camp in the city of Fontana.

[35:52] There are exceptions.

[35:53] If the city has a sanctioned event that would entail an encampment or something that appears

[35:59] to be camping, the city has the authority to have that exception for public events that we might

[36:05] host.

[36:06] That concludes my report and both Curtis Ratt and I are happy to answer any questions.

[36:11] Thank you for that report.

[36:13] Are there any questions to staff?

[36:16] Okay, Madam Mayor, just point of clarity.

[36:19] This is just for public right away public spaces, government property things of that.

[36:23] This isn't for private property.

[36:24] If someone's camping under private property, call the police and have them removed because

[36:27] that's trespassing.

[36:28] So, just for clarity on that side of things, that's a whole different subject.

[36:30] That's correct.

[36:32] And I also just want to be clear that the council's made some significant investments on

[36:36] the social services side, so as far as providing, you know, the path working with city

[36:42] So this is in with our primary focus, but we think that this helps support our efforts to address the homeless issue.

[36:50] I think it's fair to say that we have seen cities that have allowed the skin complete out of control and now they've had their parks thinking over.

[36:59] And the children and the families can't even go to those parks.

[37:03] So this is a measure to assist our efforts but not getting to that level.

[37:08] And we are providing services for our homeless population, and as usual, we have to remind people that it is not something you can make people take advantage of, but we certainly have to protect our public.

[37:22] With that said.

[37:24] Mr. Greg, this is only a fix to city, not the county in state.

[37:28] That's correct.

[37:29] This is only within city jurisdictions, and I would add that our language in our ordinance is very similar to a number of local jurisdictions.

[37:36] So we're implementing effectively similar or same rules as other local jurisdictions, so we're not an outlier, but yes, we or this is limited to city district jurisdiction.

[37:47] All right, thank you, sir.

[37:50] If I can have a motion to approve staff's recommendations for five staff report,

[37:55] read by title only and wait for the reading of and induce ordinance number one nine six eight and ordinance of the council that's at the upon town.

[38:02] at an article seven entitled Camping to chapter 16 of the Fontana Municipal Code to establish procedures

[38:08] for the handling of Camping and Associated Matters. If I could have a motion in the second.

[38:15] I'll make the motion mirror.

[38:17] Coat for an all-second motion. Okay, have a motion in the second. Please cast your vote.

[38:30] Five in favor of motion is passed. Motion passed. Thank you for that staff report.

[38:35] At this time, that brings us new business item B, which is the annual comprehensive financial

[38:41] report for fiscal year in the June 30th, 2020, well, or we have our chief financial officer

[38:48] Jessica Brown providing that staff report or others that will introduce themselves.

[39:05] Good afternoon, Mayor and members of the Council.

[39:07] My name is Marlene Galvin.

[39:08] I'm the deputy finance officer for the city and me and Roger Alfaro, partner with Ida Bailey

[39:14] will be presenting the item.

[39:16] So the item before you is the fiscal year 2024 Audited Financial Statements.

[39:21] Last fiscal year, we came to the end of the contract with our previous auditors.

[39:25] So the in order to promote independence, the city issued an RFP for new auditors in which

[39:30] we selected I'd Bailey.

[39:32] Do two staff turnover on the city side and do to the fact that this is I'd Bailey's first

[39:38] year.

[39:39] The audit took a little longer than expected, but since we've issued both the financial

[39:43] statements and the single audit and they are both available on the city website.

[39:47] So today I have Roger Alfaro, the partner in the engagement here to present

[39:51] part of the presentation. He will introduce himself and Ida Bailey, and we'll discuss the

[39:56] responsibilities of the auditors and highlight any findings the city was-

[40:00] As well as communicate their audit opinion. Then I will take over and I will talk a little bit more about the findings you identify and I will highlight some financial data. So with that I'll let water take over.

[40:16] Mayor and council members. My name is Roger Alfarrow. I am a partner with I'd Bailey and I had the overall responsibility for the audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.

[40:29] Our firm was retained to perform the audit of the annual comprehensive financial report.

[40:35] I will use the term financial statements or annual report throughout this discussion.

[40:42] As part of our scope of work, since the city receives and expands federal awards,

[40:47] we were also tasked with performing what's referred to as a single audit,

[40:50] which is an award of federal grants.

[40:54] As part of the audit process, in accordance with government auditing standards, we also are tasked with reporting on our considerations of internal control over financial reporting as well as compliance and accordance with government auditing standards.

[41:07] Our scope of work also included non-attest services, which include the compilation of the financial statements based on records provided by management.

[41:16] In addition, we assisted with reporting for the other post-employment, benefit trust fund, or OPEB trust.

[41:25] And we also prepared the city's portion of the data collection form, which is reporting to the Federal Clearance.

[41:33] We compile the data by management certifies it as it's their responsibility.

[41:38] In addition, we also did an audit of the Air Quality Management District Special Revenue Fund.

[41:43] issue to report on that. And as part of our procedures, we did what's referred to as an

[41:48] agreed upon procedures engagement over the appropriations limit calculation. As your independent

[41:56] external auditors, our responsibilities to form an expressed opinion as to whether the financial

[42:01] statements, which are the responsibility of management are fairly presented in accordance with

[42:06] U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, otherwise referred to as U.S. gap. In addition,

[42:12] we express an opinion as to whether the city complied with those terms and conditions that are

[42:18] direct the material to major federal programs during this fiscal year. As part of the process,

[42:25] we communicate that we obtain reasonable, rather than absolute assurance that the financial

[42:30] statements are free of material mistreatment. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance.

[42:35] However, the audit does not guarantee that all material mistreatments if they exist are detected

[42:42] And even though the auditor is properly performed in accordance with professional standards,

[42:47] we perform a variety of tests inherently in that process and therefore we do not examine

[42:53] 100% of the transactions that are undertaken by the city.

[42:57] That's why it's reasonable assurance.

[42:59] As part of the process, we consider internal control over financial reporting as well as

[43:05] on compliance to determine the nature, timing, and extent of our work.

[43:09] However, the standards as well as in this case, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness

[43:16] of the internal controls of financial reporting.

[43:21] We also report to you that we have complied with all relevant ethical requirements regarding

[43:27] independence.

[43:28] We must remain independent in both fact and appearance, conducting our work in order to express

[43:36] our opinion.

[43:36] As part of the audit process, professional standards require that we evaluate certain areas

[43:44] that are potentially more susceptible to the risk of material misstatement.

[43:50] That requires us to give those items special audit consideration and we refer to those

[43:56] items as significant risks.

[43:58] Every audit has significant risks.

[44:01] Every audit, there's a presumption that management overwrite them into a control as a risk

[44:05] in revenue recognition as a risk.

[44:07] Inherently, we plan the audit to factor in those risks

[44:12] in performing our tests as part of the process.

[44:15] In addition, it's very common for local governments

[44:18] in cities is that they have pension plans.

[44:21] In this case, the net pension liability,

[44:24] OPEB liability, as well as liabilities

[44:27] for claims and judgments.

[44:29] Those are also normal as part of the consideration.

[44:32] And they were here as far as our audit procedures

[44:35] in performing our work. Lastly, as the city began reporting the other post-employment benefit plan

[44:43] this year, the first year of reporting in the financial statements, we elevated that to an area

[44:49] that required special audit consideration as we did our testing procedures together our evidence.

[44:55] As part of the our communications, we highlight to you that they signal.

[45:00] significant accounting policies of the financial statements were in contained in note one. We evaluate

[45:05] those policies to ensure that they're consistently applied from year to year. We're pleased to report

[45:11] that those accounting policies were applied consistently. The city did adopt a new required

[45:16] pronouncement. It entailed disclosure didn't have any impact on changes in financial

[45:22] statements amounts, but nonetheless we're communicating that to you.

[45:26] Inherently, in the process of preparing or compiling financial information, the

[45:32] engine is required to make estimates of a variety of classes of transactions and account

[45:37] balances.

[45:38] Certain accounting estimates are considered significant based on the number of assumptions or

[45:45] the types of assumptions that are used to calculate those estimates, and the fact that

[45:49] future events could significantly impact those current judgments that management uses to prepare

[45:57] that information in the financial statements. We've identified the net pension and net

[46:03] OPEV liabilities as significant accounting estimates. In addition to that, claims and judgments

[46:10] liabilities, we've identified those as significant. The net pension liability and net

[46:19] Just they articulate the information and the inputs and assumptions that are used to determine the pension and OPEV liabilities, so we bring that to your attention as well.

[46:33] During the course of the audit, we did not encounter any difficulties.

[46:37] The timing of the audit was modified to allow the city additional time together records for us to perform our testing procedures.

[46:45] During the course of the audit, we did identify certain adjustments that needed to be made to the financial statements.

[46:53] Those typically fall in two categories.

[46:56] One would be something that's in material that we could bring to the attention of management.

[46:59] If management said, it doesn't have a material effect to the financial statements and we concur.

[47:04] We would consider that an uncorrected misstatement.

[47:08] There were no uncorrected misstatements as a part of our audit process.

[47:11] We did identify corrected items or adjustments that were required to the financial statements.

[47:20] Those were identified in a number of different areas.

[47:23] The other post-employment benefit are OPEB reporting.

[47:26] Accounts receivables, certain inner fund transactions, as well as capital assets.

[47:33] We are pleased to report that we did not encounter significant difficulties in dealing with management.

[47:39] And there were no disagreements that arose as a relates to accounting, auditing or financial reporting matters, things that are within our scope of work.

[47:49] We appreciate the assistance of all city staff as well as especially finance in providing us access to individuals within the city that we needed to speak with together our evidence as well as third parties.

[48:03] in addition to the number of documentation requests that we had to validate transactions to gather

[48:11] evidence as part of this process. In conclusion, as a result of the evidence that we gather,

[48:18] we issued what is referred to as an unmodified opinion on the city's annual financial statements.

[48:25] This is also referred to as a clean opinion and is the highest level of assurance

[48:29] that the city can achieve in the financial statement audit process.

[48:34] In accordance with the government auditing standards,

[48:36] we did identify a material weakness in the internal control over financial reporting,

[48:41] where we made a recommendation of management to strengthen its year

[48:44] and closing procedures, mainly in relation to areas that we tested,

[48:48] where we had such adjustments.

[48:51] In addition, as part of the single audit,

[48:52] we've given an unmodified opinion on compliance.

[48:55] Again, a clean opinion indicating that for this current years major federal programs, there were

[49:02] four programs that were tested.

[49:04] We've concluded based on our evidence that the city complied with the direct and material

[49:08] terms and conditions of those grants.

[49:11] With respect to the single audit on the federal compliance, we did not identify any material

[49:15] weaknesses in the internal control of our complaints.

[49:18] We did have one item that we reported as a significant deficiency in an incidence of non-compliance

[49:24] with respect to one of the programs.

[49:27] Both of these findings and observations

[49:29] were presented to management,

[49:31] management's concurred with the statement of fact,

[49:34] has provided a corrective action,

[49:36] which, as part of the subsequent year audit process,

[49:39] we will follow up to ensure that the corrective action is taken.

[49:43] And that concludes my remarks on the audit process.

[49:49] So for the city's presentation,

[49:51] I wanted to first identify a couple of audits

[49:53] and the related reporting that the city does on an annual basis.

[49:56] and I also want to note that this list is not all included.

[50:00] As the city receives multiple funding sources, so we are subject to audit at any time or any year. So those are not included on here, but these are the ones that we have on an annual basis.

[50:11] As Roger explained, we did engage with Ida Bailey for the annual comprehensive financial report or act for for short. The single audit.

[50:21] The measure I audit, we do annually as well, and those are auditors selected by SVCTA.

[50:27] We also outsource the annual street report, but we have to provide all the information,

[50:32] and then attest that all the information is correct to the state controller.

[50:36] And then there's also the state controls report that I'd Bailey also prepares and the city

[50:42] has to review and approve.

[50:47] So for fiscal year, 23, we had two findings.

[50:50] The first one was a prior period adjustment, which was partially repeated, and I will talk about a little more in the next slide.

[50:58] And then the second one was methods of procurement to be followed, and that was related to documentation of the previous auditor wanted to see on our procurement, and that has been resolved.

[51:11] for fiscal year 24, as Roger stated, the city received two findings as one is related to

[51:18] the ACFER, which is the annual financial statements, and the others related to the single

[51:23] audit.

[51:24] The one on this slide is related to the financial statements and its several prior period adjustments.

[51:29] Prior period adjustments occur when prior period balances are restated and can occur for several

[51:33] reasons, including a new or change of accounting standard, correction of errors, or information

[51:38] provided after the audit has concluded.

[51:42] There are a total of eight adjustments.

[51:43] The most notable listed on this slide and the most material one, which is the first one

[51:49] that you see there, Opev Gas B74, was due to a change in auditor opinion and is now being reported

[51:56] as a fiduciary fund and it has an additional note disclosure.

[52:00] So the last year's first auditors believed it was supposed to be reported one way and then

[52:06] Bailey believed that it belonged under Gaspi 74. The rest of them were due to a combination

[52:12] of staff proactively auditing areas on the financial statement, and 100% turnover of the audit

[52:18] team, all who left for promotions. Just wanted to make that clear. Due to the nature of the findings

[52:24] at this time, these prior period adjustments do not raise any concerns to the city.

[52:33] So, the city does have strong internal controls and processes and we have also added a senior

[52:41] account and position which was approved by Council in March.

[52:46] I also want to note that a part period adjustments are usually one time in nature and

[52:51] as staff continues to review different areas of financial statements as time elots, we may

[52:57] have future part period adjustments, but those are completely expected and they are in

[53:03] to be compliant or to achieve transparency.

[53:11] So the second finding was related to the single audit report, and that was found that

[53:17] the city was not in compliance with Section 3 of the Housing Urban Development Act of 1968.

[53:24] We did the city did discover the issue during the internal assessment and corrected it in October

[53:28] 2024, which was before the auditors pointed it out, so we had already corrected this finding.

[53:35] we will continue to monitor. As an additional safe car, the city has implemented a bit

[53:41] port or we're all applicable documents are submitted to review to ensure all grant

[53:45] requirements are included on bid specifications prior to posting.

[53:53] So I wanted to

[53:53] highlight a few financial metrics on the financial statements. This is from the

[53:57] statement of revenue and expenditures and change in fund balance found on page 28 of

[54:02] for revenue, the year ended with 157.8 million of actuals against 152.9 million dollars of budget which resulted in a $4.8 million

[54:17] of actuals received over budget and this was primarily due to interest income and an increase in property tax.

[54:24] On the expense side of things, there was a net savings of $16 million, the year ended with

[54:30] actuals of 171.1 against a budget of 187.2 million.

[54:40] Despite the net savings and expenditures

[54:42] and the revenues are performing budget, we did have a reduction to the overall fund balances

[54:47] from 117.2 million to 104 million, which was expected due to programming of one-time expenditures

[54:54] and projects during the quarterly budget adjustments. These amounts have been considered and are always a success.

[55:00] We're going to discuss against meeting our fund, general fund, fund balance reserves. And just in general, the city is in a financially healthy position.

[55:09] So on this slide, we wanted to break down the fund balance, because on the financial statements, these are all rolled up and reported as general fund due to the nature of the funds, but when we present these for internal reporting or budget purposes or reflected separately.

[55:27] The most notable changes were in Fund 101, which were related to one-time expenses and projects.

[55:35] The other one was Fund 102, which is self-insurance.

[55:38] We had a few settlements in the last of the school year.

[55:42] And then the last one that I wanted to point out was Fund 115, which was least fire,

[55:47] and that was due to project commitments.

[55:52] So the final, the last financial metric that I wanted to highlight is the net position,

[55:56] which reflects the city as a whole.

[55:58] The city has a total net position of $1.2 billion with $801 million tied up in capital assets,

[56:05] which means they're not readily available and not liquid. $166 million restricted for other purposes

[56:11] and 176.7 unrestricted.

[56:18] At this time, I'd like to thank the accounting staff. It was really

[56:21] tough with all this turnover that we had, but everybody pulled it through and also thank the city

[56:25] department and our county manager who's sitting back there.

[56:31] We did receive the, I did want to note that we did receive the GFOA award for financial

[56:35] reporting for fiscal year 23. We did submit fiscal year 24 for that award as well and

[56:41] as soon as we hear we'll report back on that and we are, our goal is to get that every year moving

[56:48] forward. So as far as the timeline for the audit, we are already scheduled for interim June

[56:54] and depending on how that goes, we anticipate

[56:57] final to be anywhere from late October to early November

[57:01] with a completion date of December 2025.

[57:05] And that concludes my presentations for you.

[57:08] If you have any questions.

[57:09] I'm going to ask my colleagues to have any questions,

[57:11] but I do have one question.

[57:13] When we talked about that portal,

[57:16] that is for public to go in and see what's going on.

[57:19] Is that accurate?

[57:21] Or do

[57:26] the various reports it talked about it for the bid portal that's on the staff side so city staff would submit the spikes and then it would it'll make sure that we are that in the RFP we are outlining every everything that we need to be in compliance.

[57:46] Okay, great. Yeah, all right. Any questions? Okay, great for it. At this time, I have a motion to approve staff's recommendation as provided by this great staff report and like to think the audit team for assisting our efforts. Thank you.

[58:28] Thank you.

[58:30] Thank you.

[58:32] Thank you.

[58:34] Okay.

[58:34] At this time, let's go to our city manager for any communications.

[58:38] I'd like to report out.

[58:39] I have no reports, Mayor.

[58:41] Thank you.

[58:41] Okay.

[58:42] Our treasure.

[58:44] Thank you very much, Mayor.

[58:46] I want to take the time to congratulate our police.

[58:49] employees of the month. Thank you.

[58:53] Any clerk, Jamaan key?

[58:56] You don't want congratulations to our police for

[59:00] employee of the month and other awards and beyond that, I'm done.

[59:05] Okay, bring it back to our council member,

[59:08] starting with John Roberts.

[59:11] Yeah, I too would also like to say, I'll probably

[59:13] are of our police department and everything that they do.

[59:17] Thank you, Mayor.

[59:17] Thank you, Councilmember Sandevall.

[59:21] I also like to congratulate all personal worthy,

[59:24] but I like to recognize a couple of people that got a couple of awards this month.

[59:33] I want to be in Francisco Blanos, my grandson.

[59:37] He got a award for a third grade level over achieving

[59:43] his reading and doing map at the eighth grade level right now.

[59:46] So, congratulations on getting the medal at the third grade level. He's in fourth grade now, but he's

[59:51] doing taking testing, but that deserves a good recommendation, because he's at a grade level

[59:56] math and reading. Also, I'd like to...

[1:00:00] A few of my other grants in Sebastian, he got a poem published in a published book of many poems. So he got a poem published in the book. And they're on sale. So if any person is buying a book of poems, he got a poem published. And last night, he said, I have to recommend the smaller of the two, Tommy Velanos's birthday will be next week. So happy birthday to Tommy. And it's when they're told to see that these three young men

[1:00:29] are really being educated here in Fontaineble, Fontaineble schools, and really moving forward

[1:00:34] and really studying in the City of Columbia here in the school district of Fontaineble.

[1:00:39] Thank you very much.

[1:00:40] That's all I got.

[1:00:42] Thank you.

[1:00:42] At this time, Council Member Coffron.

[1:00:45] No comment, Madam Mayor.

[1:00:48] Mayor of Protium, Garcia.

[1:00:51] Only comment, Mayor, is wish everyone a happy Earth Day today today, so beautiful weather

[1:00:56] out there today too, so enjoy the rest of your afternoon.

[1:01:01] Okay, thank you.

[1:01:03] Just a couple of compliments.

[1:01:05] We, I had an opportunity to go to Senior Prom

[1:01:09] this year at the Senior Center.

[1:01:13] And a number of people were coming about the graphics

[1:01:15] about the boat, and saying was that the Titanic,

[1:01:19] I said you guys, it's not the Titanic.

[1:01:22] It was really nice, so, and the seniors were all dressed up,

[1:01:26] And I have to tell you, they were prone to have a great time.

[1:01:30] And when I went over to the part where the music was going to be, I said, this is going

[1:01:33] to be on up in here.

[1:01:36] The other thing is we have originally a remarkable woman from our area that for KTLA, Kim Carter,

[1:01:44] I got a chance to go to her time for change foundation.

[1:01:48] Kim has made a lifetime dream to help women be reunited after being incarcerated, back with

[1:01:55] children developing families for those kids, so they're not in the system, and she has done

[1:02:00] a very good job, very good job. And so she was just yesterday awarded as a remarkable woman

[1:02:08] for the entire nation, so she's not here today, but let's give her a big hand. That's major.

[1:02:18] Also, Big, Big, Big Announcement, Fontana Days Parade.

[1:02:26] This is a parade, not only for the exchange club and for the city.

[1:02:32] It's for the entire city.

[1:02:34] Fontana Days is our historical significance of when we were created.

[1:02:39] And this is the 112st parade I believe.

[1:02:42] It's going to be huge. And so please, May 3rd, which is a Saturday at 10 am right here at

[1:02:49] Eron Sierra, let's put it on our calendars to come out and cheer on. I've been joking

[1:02:55] about Mayor Monday on who's going to be the grand marshal. And I'm going to be the grand marshal.

[1:03:02] And I'm proud of that. And what I want to ask is the theme is dancing in the streets.

[1:03:08] those of us that might be around my age group, remember that great song, so if you had a blue

[1:03:17] bouncing your ounces, you're bouncing your ounces, that's my dad, you say, I want to see some

[1:03:23] bouncing these ounces come out because I'm going to be dancing and enjoy myself as the grandmarsha.

[1:03:31] So I'm sure my colleagues up here with dance was me too.

[1:03:35] Jermaine, I just saw her put it in her calendar real quick. She can't wait. City manager told me

[1:03:41] we've been working on the steps all on time. So we're going to have a really good time

[1:03:46] and celebrate this great town. So we're asking everybody to come out for our parade. It's

[1:03:52] our parade, right Daniel? Yeah, it's our parade and we're going to have a good time in

[1:03:58] the theme like I said, it's dancing in the streets and I'm not going to be in tennis shoes

[1:04:03] I've just thought I'd put that out there too, so you got to figure out what I'm going to be wearing.

[1:04:08] But we're going to be having a great time, and we want to be by the joiners.

[1:04:12] The other part is thanks to our great community services department.

[1:04:18] The Easter egg comp, it went very, very well.

[1:04:22] I was so happy some of my friends took their kids, and they actually commented on how organized everything was.

[1:04:30] So the point where the kids didn't even hot for the eggs,

[1:04:33] there was so busy doing the various activities.

[1:04:36] So that's when you know everybody's having a good time.

[1:04:39] And I really like to thank everybody who thought it was cute

[1:04:42] to give me a carton of eggs for Easter, not cooked.

[1:04:47] So I appreciate that.

[1:04:49] And so I made omelette for everybody's Sunday morning.

[1:04:51] So thank you.

[1:04:53] Also I had opportunity of going over to Fontana Water

[1:04:57] They're the groundbreaking that they're current.

[1:05:00] Treatment plan, where they are upgrading, all these years. So these are some of the projects that have been funded by our, the weight pairs and they're starting up great. They're systems. We'd like to thank them for that.

[1:05:15] Earlier, I announced that we were going to be concluding our meeting in honor of JD Kim.

[1:05:25] Those of you that know you can with Reggie King, young homes, this is her dad and her parents living

[1:05:36] Fontana as well as herself and her dad used to tease me that I was Ms. Fontana and he was

[1:05:43] Mr. Fontana.

[1:05:45] So he has passed and we just want to make sure that we keep that family and prayer.

[1:05:50] His services are pending.

[1:05:54] So let's make sure when we conclude in our meetings that we keep these great people in mind.

[1:06:00] So at this time, I'd like you to join me in silence.

[1:06:04] And I think we have a picture of him.

[1:06:06] There he is.

[1:06:08] And if everyone could join me in stand for a few seconds before we adjourn our meeting.

[1:06:23] I'd like to adjourn this meeting to our next meeting on Tuesday, May 13th at 2 p.m. in the Grover Taylor-Pausel

[1:06:30] chambers.

[1:06:32] Meeting adjourn.
