DATE: August 20, 1993
STAFF REPORT
CRA ITEM (xx) COUNCIL ITEM ( ) MEETING DATE: August 26, 1993
SUBJECT: CONTRACT FOR A MOBILE HOME PARK CONVERSION STUDY
The City of Grand Terrace has received a proposal from the London
Group, a firm that specializes in conversions of mobile home parks
to private ownership. Staff and the Mayor met the first part of
the year and asked Mr. London to meet with the mobile home park
residents and determine whether a level of interest exists. This
has been completed and it has been indicated that interest does
exist to convert the mobile home park to ownership. A survey
conducted among the residents indicates over 90% of the residents
favor considering conversion to ownership.
Substantial benefits can be gained by conversion, whereby the
resident has an ownership interest in the land. The mobile home
residents benefit from an equity standpoint, as well as fixing the
costs of residency, rather than the continued escalation of rental
rates. The proposal indicates that a conversion fee of $2,300 will
be paid per space. This $2,300 would be paid through escrow and
would be borne by the mobile home unit owner as part of the
financing. The Redevelopment Agency would front the initial
consultant's fee of $3,000 per month for a period of five months
for a total of $15,000. Since the majority, if not all, of the
residents within the mobile home park would fall within the
moderate income category, it would be appropriate to utilize the
low and moderate income housing funds that exist in the Redevelop-
ment Agency to maintain and upgrade moderate housing stock.
STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT:
COUNCIL REVIEW THE ATTACHED PROPOSAL AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT
AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO ENTER INTO A CONSULTING
AGREEMENT FOR CONVERSION OF MOBILE HOME PARKS LOCATED AT 22111
NEWPORT AVENUE AND 12135 MICHIGAN AVENUE.

Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 3
Janet Lenaker, 23125 Westwood Street, Grand Terrace,
remarking that she has three children enrolled in schools
in the Colton School District, proclaimed that she was
speaking on behalf of the group Citizens for a Grand
Terrace School District. She explained that the group's
goal is to separate from the Colton Joint Unified School
District and form a Grand Terrace School District,
' including a high school. She thanked the City Council
for approving the mini-feasibility study for the possible
establishment of a school district in the City,
indicating that the outcome of the study was positive
She stated her belief that the School District is a
project that could succeed, commenting that the new
district would have a higher population than many of the
school districts in existence in the state She reported
that two architects surmised that the cost to residents
to develop the district would be $32 - $65 per household
per year, exempting residents 65 years of age and older.
She offered the opinion that the City currently has
adequate facilities to house the students and indicated
further that the schools are owned by the State and would
not have to be purchased by the City. Commenting that
the group has mailed an information flyer to the
registered voters in the City, she announced that the
group will hold a meeting at City Hall on August 25, 1993
at 7: 3 0 p.m. and invited the public to attend the meeting
to sign the petition for the establishment of a Grand
Terrace School District. She indicated that the signed
petition will be forwarded to the San Bernardino County
Superintendent of Schools for another feasibility study
That study will then be sent to the State Board of
Education and if the Board ascertains that the District
is feasible, the issue will be placed on the ballot. She
revealed that those interested in forming a Grand Terrace
School District can contact the Citizen's group at (909)
424-3352 .
Thelma Winkler, 12570 Mt. Vernon, Grand Terrace; speaking
as a member of Citizens for a Grand Terrace School
District, encouraged senior citizens to attend the School
District formation meeting. She complimented the City's
efforts to improve life in the community, citing the
Child Care Center, senior center, and Advocate School but
expressing her belief that the City needs a local high
school. She remarked that a local school district will
add to the completeness and stability of the community.
Jo Ann Johnson, 12723 S. Mt. Vernon, Grand Terrace,
requested that Council investigate establishing a four-
way stop at the intersection of Mt. Vernon and Grand
Council Minutes - 08/12/93

Mike Schenker, Vice-President, General Manager Comcast
Cable; reported that the equipment that was owed to the
City has been installed, adding that the equipment has
been made portable and can be transported to any location
in the City to cover any event. He remarked that the
system has features that limit the number of staff
necessary to operate the system, commenting that it also
has a built-in character generator.
Councilmember Hilkey, inquired whether Comcast would
train staff to operate the equipment.
Mike Schenker, Vice-President, General Manager Comcast
Cable; responded in the affirmative, remarking that the
company is willing to hold public access classes. Citing
the delicate nature of the equipment, however, he
suggested that the City establish rules for use of the
equipment.
Councilmember Hilkey, questioned when the company would
alter the channel line-up.
Mike Schenker, Vice-President, General Manager Comcast
Cable; remarked that the channel line-up would be changed
on September 1, 1993 He reported that the company would
be adding numerous programs on that date.

18, 1993 and March 16, 1993 .
5B. Council Reports
Councilmember Hilkey, complimented the workmanship
involved in the replacement of the lights on the
sidewalk around City Hall. He reiterated that the
Grand Terrace School District meeting will be held
on August 25, 1993 at 7: 30 p.m. , and inquired as to
the result of staff's investigation into combining
all of the newsletters published by the City.
City Manager Schwab, indicated that joining the
Chamber newsletter with the City newsletter would
be the only feasible option, remarking that the
City has not arrived at a formal decision and
adding that the upcoming issue was not combined due
to time constraints. He speculated that the City
will have a consensus regarding the combining of
the newsletters within one month.
Councilmember Hilkey, indicated that Council would
abide by the staff's decision regarding the
newsletter. He remarked that the City would send
the zip code request petitions to the Postal Office
during the week, indicating that the City will
Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 6
benefit from the growth of Colton. He commented
that a new zip code may be assigned to Colton and
remarked that the Postal Office traditionally
honors city boundaries when issuing new zip codes,
speculating that that might allow Grand Terrace to
have its own zip code. He praised the Chamber's
efforts regarding EARS, explaining that the EARS
program assists businesses to maintain their
viability in the City. � f
Councilmember Singley, remarked that the Orco Tool
Company is frequently the target of taggers but
noted that the graffiti is removed promptly.
However, he commented that Caltrans is removing the
graffiti. He expressed disheartenment that the
Barton Road exit sign at the Newport overpass is
surrounded by concertina wire. He commended the
Chamber and the citizens who participated in the
graffiti paint-over and indicated that he wishes to
participate in the next paint-over. He indicated
that anyone who wishes to contribute for the
purchase of paint to cover graffiti in the City can
submit $8. 00 to the Chamber of Commerce.
Councilmember Carlstrom, commented that property
owners adjacent to the I-215 freeway are receiving
notices from Caltrans regarding the potential
purchase of their land and related that one citizen
expressed chagrin that he could not lease his
property because of the notification. He stressed
that the City needs to maintain input to the
project to ensure that the project is favorable to
Grand Terrace.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson, requested an update on
the repair of the railroad crossing at Main Street.
City Engineer Kicak, responded that the City is
working with a company in Riverside on the matter
and speculated that a report will be sent to the
railroad company within the next week. He
indicated that if the railroad company repairs the
tracks, the City will repair the roadway.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson, inquired as to the
status of the D.A.R.E. Program, questioning whether
the School Board will help to fund the program.
City Manager Schwab, remarked that the City staff
met with the School District at the joint quarterly
Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 7
meeting on Tuesday, August 10, 1993 to explore
options regarding the program. He reported that
the two elementary schools in the City will be the
only schools in the Colton Joint Unified School
District that will not have the D.A.R.E. program.
= He commented that the City believed that the
program would not be funded at the unincorporated
schools in Bloomington, however, Block grant funds
were found to fund those programs. He indicated
that the City is investigating three alternatives
to provide funding for the program. He related
that the School District and City staff determined
that the City should approach Council with the
School District's offer to fund 50% of the cost of
the D.A.R E. program officer for the two Grand
Terrace schools. He indicated that the proposal
would be presented to Council at an upcoming
meeting, adding that the City will still pursue
other sources of funding. He expressed optimism
that the program will be maintained at the local
school system.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson, mentioned that he
attended the Grand Opening of the Guardian car
purchasing company and the Chamber Mixer at the
Town and Country Center. He thanked the Chamber,
the Citizen Patrol, and others for participating in
the Grand Opening ceremony.
PUBLIC HEARING
6A. An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Grand
Terrace Amending Title 4 of the Municipal Code and
Establishing a Comprehensive Schedule for Fees, Taxes,
and Fines for Permits, Licenses, Services, Facilities,
and Activities Provided by the City of Grand Terrace.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson opened discussion to the
public.
Barney Karger, 11668 Bernardo Way, Grand Terrace; spoke
in opposition to the proposed fee increases, speculating
that the increases will discourage enterprise.
Jack Ingalls, 21900 Barton Road, Grand Terrace;
questioned the percentage of the increase and expressed
opposition to increasing the fees, citing that businesses
have located in Grand Terrace to escape high fees
elsewhere.
Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 8
Finance Director Bush, responded that the rate varies in
accordance with the gross receipts of the company.
Councilmember Singlev, remarked that the fees for the
City of Grand Terrace are the lowest of all the
surrounding cities, stressing that even with the
increase, Grand Terrace fees are still less than other
areas.
Jack Ingalls, 21900 Barton Road, Grand Terrace; agreed
with the increase yet suggested that the fees be locked
at the new level.
City Manger Schwab, stated that the City has not
increased its fee structure for many years and added that
Grand Terrace is still 1/3 below the other cities. He
stressed that the City refuses to resort to levying a
Utility User's Tax to raise revenue.
John Taylor, 22843 Vista Grande Way, Grand Terrace;
questioned whether the City receives revenue from fines.
Finance Director Bush, replied that Grand Terrace
receives the bail amount but commented that the state has
added $5.00 to the bail amount.
Councilmember Carlstrom, suggested that the term "gross
receipts" be modified to "gross operating income, " in
order to fairly levy fees against businesses that operate
with a large dollar volume since those types of companies
receive only a small percentage of the actual revenue.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson returned discussion to
Council.
Councilmember Hi.lkey, referring to the poor economic
state of the country, opposed the Ordinance and suggested
that the Ordinance be reviewed again in six months.
City Manager Schwab, emphasized the importance of
collecting the additional fees, adding that the increases
have been included in the budget.
Councilmember Hilkev, questioned whether the Ordinance
could be approved selectively.
City Manager Schwab, indicated that the City can complete
a comparative analysis of actual businesses in the
community, remarking that the Ordinance will be reviewed
again at the second reading.
Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 9
Councilmember Hilkey, expressed concern regarding the 50%
increase in the Business License Tax.
Finance Director Bush, indicated that even with the
increase, the fees are still lower than fees levied by
other cities.
Councilmember Hilkev, inquired as to whether the Business
License Fee section could be isolated from the remainder
of the Ordinance.
City Manager Schwab, stated that the Business License Fee
includes commercial and retail businesses and can be
separated accordingly.
Councilmember Singley, expressed support for the
Ordinance, citing the City's need for revenue and
emphasizing that the increase is still well below the
cost of operating a business in other cities.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson, concurred that the proposed
increases are timely and stressed that the City's fees
will still be below the fees of other locales.
- CC-93-127 MOTION BY COUNCILMEMBER SINGLEY, SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM
CHRISTIANSON, CARRIED 3-1-1-0 (COUNCILMEMBER HILKEY VOTED
NO; MAYOR MATTESON WAS ABSENT) , to approve the first
reading of the Ordinance amending Title 4 of the
Municipal Code and establishing a comprehensive schedule
for fees, taxes, and fines for permits, licenses,
services, facilities, and activities provided by the City
of Grand Terrace.
6B. Tentative Tract Map 88-02-R1 (KarQer)
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson opened discussion to the
public.
Dennis Stafford, McKeever Engineering, Riverside;
indicated agreement with the conditions of the project
yet expressed opposition to the additional fire condition
requirements, specifically citing nonstandard fire
condition No. 1 from the April 15 letter from the Fire
Department. He explained that the condition requires
that the project adhere to San Bernardino County's Fire
Zone 1 Construction and Site standards in addition to
sprinkling all of the houses on 15 lots. He related his
belief that surrounding developments were not required to
adhere to the same standards. He agreed with the City's
desire to develop more restrictive fire standards along
Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 10
Blue Mountain yet recommended that the City adopt the new
standards through a Public Hearing and apply them city-
wide.
Councilmember Hilkey, questioned whether Council has the
authority to override the fire condition requirements.
Dennis Stafford, McKeever Engineering, Riverside;
expressed his opinion that the City can counter the ` J
requirements with its own Ordinance.
Community Development Director Materassi, cautioned that '
the City has always supported the recommendations of the
Fire Department, stressing the County's right to impose
the regulations. She related further that the map is
already below the fire code. She recommended that the
City continue to support the Fire Department.
Councilmember Singley, questioned whether the County's
Ordinance was recently adopted.
Community Development Director Materassi, responded in
the affirmative.
Councilmember Singley, suggested that the other
developments be subject to the fire conditions
retroactively.
Community Development Director Materassi, indicated that
the other developers in the vicinity will be required to
adhere to the fire conditions when they obtain their
building permits.
Dennis Stafford, McKeever Engineering, Riverside;
indicated that installing the sprinklers in the homes is
a prohibitive expense and reiterated his request that the
requirements be applied on a City-wide basis.
City Manager Schwab, remarked that the conditions of the
development in question differ from the surrounding
developments.
Ernylee Chamlee, Fire Captain, California Department of
Forestry, County Fire Warden's Department; indicated that
the City requires that cul-de-sacs be less than 600' in
length. She related that the cul-de-sac is already
longer than 600' and asserted further that the Uniform
Fire Code, which was adopted by the City, requires that
there be two points of access to a project. She stated
Council Minutes - 08/12/93
Page 11
that the project does not meet City Codes based on the
two factors mentioned She related that she developed
the mitigation measures in order to avoid recommending
the denial of the project and added that she did not
apply other requirements due to the hardship those
requirements would have caused to the developer She
explained that sprinklers are designed to save lives, not
property but added that the requirements she recommended
will provide some property protection.
Moire Huss, 22735 Raven Way{ Grand Terrace; expressed
opposition to the project.
Mayor Pro Tem Christianson returned discussion to
Council.

APPLICANT: City of Grand Terrace
LOCATION: Citywide
RECOMMENDATION: Approval
DISCUSSION
On August 19, 1993, the Planning Commission approved recommendation for approval by
City Council an ordinance to allow clarification of Site and Architectural Review Procedures
including, but not limited to, accessory structures and the associated Negative Declaration.
(The Negative Declaration to be provided pnor to the City Council Meeting) The purpose
of this proposed Zoning Amendment is to clear up ambiguity in the Zoning Code, create
an official review of all new construction that otherwise would not be considered as certain
structures would not require a Building Permit (such as small types of playhouses) but due
to increased complaints staff felt the Code does not provide the proper code authonty for
review, and clarification of accessory structures definition. Refer to the Planning
Commission staff report of August 19, 1993 for detailed information
The Planning Commission and Planning Department recommends that City Council approve
the attached Zoning Amendment.

SUBJECTS Z-93-01, Zoning Amendment to clarify the Site and
Architectural Review process including, but not limited to,
accessory structures
APPLICANT: City of Grand Terrace
LOCATION: Citywide
RECOMMENDATION: Approval
***********************************************
BACKGROUND / '
Code regulations under previous Director prohibited accessory structures in the R1-7 2
District above 10' and above 20' in all other residential districts unless approved by the
Planning Commission. In any case,accessory structures were not allowed to exceed 20',with
exception of a tower and other similar structures which could go above district height of 35'
subject to a Conditional Use Permit
When amendments were made to increase staff level review, the height criteria was replaced
by the percentage of structure size and bulk in relation to the main st—icture and lot
coverage. The new criteria have been working very successfully with exception in the case '
of playhouses and elevated decks, since it does not address these structures. Elevated decks
were also not addressed by the previous code Previous and current code do not address
the issue of neighbors' privacy with the exception of adopted Balcony and Overhead Deck
Policy Guidelines These guidelines do not address elevated decks or playhouses
Also, during latest amendments, certain footnotes and portions of the previous code were
not removed and are in conflict with new criteria and creating ambiguity of interpretations.
From being prohibited and/or subject to the Planning Commission to not being reviewed
at all, certain accessory structures have become one of the current issues in the Planning
Department Numerous citizen complaints provide evidence that neighbors' privacy is a
22795 Barton Road•Grand Terrace, California 92324-5295 •(909)824-6621
Attachment A
legitimate concern and has to do with perceived property values This is the opinion of
Planning staff and management
Staff policy in view of code ambiguity is to review (at staff level) all new construction
regardless of permit requirement For the information of the Commission, this policy has
been very successful, i e the 22950 De Berry playhouse will be painted to match neighbor's
fence and tarp red roof will be replaced with a less bright roof Two rows of Platanus trees
will separate view from neighbor's yards The 22561 Kentfield playhouse will have its
second story demolished The 22789 Miriam Way playhouse will be reduced in height and
painted to match adjacent structures close to the fence
t
The Uniform Building Code does not address playhouses, therefore, if a playhouse has two
stories, more than 125 sq ft and has footings, it will need to comply with energy and other
UBC requirements for a habitable structure
Staff requests that at least the code ambiguity be clarified and that current Administrative
Site and Architectural Review criteria be maintained, since they have been very successful
for all other projects of larger scale and environmental impact
Proposed Code Amendments
Proposed amendments clarify the Site and Architectural review procedures including, but
not limited to, accessory structures Following is a summary of amendments proposed:
1 Create an official application for all new construction which would incorporate the
current "Plan Check"of building plans to be called Land Use Application. From$10
charged currently, the fee will be raised to be compatible with other cities
This action will make current Planning Department policy official. The Land Use
Application would allow Director's discretion in terms of noticing procedures. As
usual, Director's actions would be appealable to the Planning Commission
In practice, unless a complaint is filed, structures which do not disturb neighbors'
privacy would continue not being revie , sd The exceptions would be the ones that
require a permit and are observed by the Building Official. On the other hand, in
case a complaint is filed, staff would have official authonty to impose conditions on
the project and would also be able to review project prior to construction avoiding
complaints and code enforcement For the information of the Commission,
complaints lead to Declaration of Nuisance, and issues will need to be addressed m
one way or another
2 Accessory structures definition was slightly amended to clearly include certain
accessory structures which, in the opinion of staff, were not clearly stated before.
3 Overall clean-up of the Site and Architectural procedures and miscellaneous items
were included to facilitate code interpretation, implementation and enforcement, in
line with previous amendments which increase staff level reviews One of the issues
was the maintenance of the development standard regarding maximum accessory
structure height of 20' Please review footnote "e" of Residential Distncts Table
Even though height is not recommended as cntena, it is recommended to remain"as
is"-a development standard subject to Variance procedure if requested by applicant
Please refer to the amended texts, Attachments A, B, C and D of Ordinance, for full
comprehension of proposed changes Strike-out changes, i e changca,identifies existing text
to be deleted, underlined text, i e changes, identifies text to be added
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Department recommends the Planning Commission to recommend to City
Council the approval of attached Ordinance and approval of a respective Negative
Declaration to be processed by staff and submitted to the City Council at the same meeting

STA F REST
CRA ITEM ( ) COUNCIL ITEM (X) MEETING DATE: August 26, 1993
AGENDA ITEM NO.
SUBJECT: REVISION OF BUSINESS LICENSE TAXES
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED _X_
At the August 12, 1993 City Council meeting, Council requested City
staff to provide an analysis reflecting the impact of the proposed
Business License Tax increase on Grand Terrace companies (see attached
worksheet) . This analysis shows annual increases of $2 to $400
depending on the gross revenue of the business. Staff estimates that
nearly one-half of City enterprises will experience a $2 increase;
these are the small businesses with less than $50, 000 annual gross
revenue.
The taxes for some businesses will more than double while other
businesses will see an increase of only a few dollars. This is because
the proposed tax rates correct inequities of the current rates.
Presently a business with $100, 000 in gross revenue pays the same $55
tax as a business with revenue of $299,999. Thus at $100, 000 the tax
rate is . 055% (55/100, 000) and the larger business rate is .018%
(55/299,999) . The proposed rates for the above revenue are . 07%
(70/100, 000) and . 057% (170/299,999) which is more equitable. This
equality is accomplished by adding three additional flat rates in the
proposed tax schedule (making a total of eight) .
The far right column of the analysis reflects the estimated difference
between the six city average (Loma Linda, Colton, Fontana, Rialto, San
Bernardino, and Redlands) and the Grand Terrace proposed tax. Even
with this increase Grand Terrace has the lowest Business License Taxes
in the area.
The Grand Terrace Business Licence Tax structure was established in
1979 with a minimum tax of $25 and maximum of $715. A revision
occurred in 1988 which increased the minimum tax to $28 and the maximum
to $800 (this is the current structure now in use) . Thus, the small
businessman has seen only one $3 Business License Tax increase in the
last 15 years.

CRA ITEM ( ) COUNCIL ITEM (xx) MEETING DATE: Aug. 26, 1993
SUBJECT: JOINT FUNDING OF THE DARE PROGRAM WITH THE COLTON JOINT
UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE
The City of Grand Terrace, during its budget deliberations,
eliminated the DARE Program. In negotiations with the School
District, they have indicated the desire to maintain the DARE
Program in all of the Distracts's elementary schools. Currently,
the City of Colton provides the program for Colton Schools.
Supervisor Jerry Eaves has funded the five elementary schools in
the Bloomington area, leaving the two elementary schools in Grand
Terrace as the only non-DARE schools
Staff is investigating the feasibility of utilizing the City's
block grant funding to pay for the program. However, to ensure
consistency in continuation of the program, the School District has
offered to pay one-half the cost of the DARE Program, which
currently totals $24, 000 per year. The outlay from the City is
approximately $12, 000 per year.
STAFF RECOMMENDS•
THAT COUNCIL AUTHORIZE STAFF TO PURSUE ALL AVENUES TO FUND THE DARE
PROGRAM THROUGH NON-GENERAL FUND EXPENSE. IN THE EVENT THAT IT IS
NOT POSSIBLE, FUND THE DARE PROGRAM WITHIN THE GENERAL FUND WITH
ONE-HALF THE COST SHARED BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, APPROPRIATE
$12, 000 TO FUND THE DARE PROGRAM AT TERRACE VIEW ELEMENTARY AND
GRAND TERRACE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS FOR THE 1993-94 BUDGET YEAR.

If the signal is to be installed at Mt Vernon - Canal/Grand Terrace, it would
be staff recommendation that at minimum full intersection street improvements be
considered as part of the signal installation The recommended improvements in
addition to the signal would be those which would prevent tearing up the
intersection for at least 15 to 20 years Should the ultimate improvements be
considered at Mt Vernon Avenue (west side) and Canal Street both sides and Grand
Terrace Road north side in some near future
The detail cost estimate for the work at Mt Vernon Avenue location, as discussed
above is attached
In addition, staff was directed to review the cost of traffic signal installation
at Barton Road and Grand Terrace Road/Honey Hill intersection.

276-401-01 to align Grand Terrace Road with Honey Hill Drive
2 Reconstruction of Grand Terrace Road
(a) for horizontal alignment to align with Honey Hill Drive,
(b) for vertical alignment to meet existing Barton Road elevation at
Honey Hill Drive
The cost estimate for the work at that location is likewise attached
In summary, following are the cost estimates for the minimum work that would be
required to install signals at both locations and the recommended associated
improvements
(a) Mt Vernon - Grand Terrace Road/Canal - $180,000 00
