prisons of any County in the State of California He stated that he received a letter from

SUBJECT: Highlights of the League of California Cities "Economic Development
and Downtown Revitalization" Conference
These were the major messages of this conference from my perspective One has to do with the best
strategy for economic development and the other with the secret of creating a city center
The secret of creature a city center.
A city center that works needs to allow people to socialize, to interface, interact, touch and talk The
focus of a city center should not just be to "sell things", but to make people have real life experiences
winch are educational, social and entertaining Only then the city center will be successful and will not
depend upon the types and cycles of retail and commercial businesses Speakers such as William Fulton,
the editor of the Planning and Development R rtrt stressed that the goal of downtown is to be "place
oriented" instead of "theme oriented" Theme oriented is like Disneyland or another theme that can be
copied and transferred to anywhere
"Place Oriented" is "Where people experience human dramas within a familiar
place", a backdrop which provides people a broader place
oriented experience and diversity of activities, a place that
integrates civic uses with commercial, educational and
entertainment uses i e a library, a museum, activities loyal to
the town's values to be durable and beyond retail trends Where
the retail may turn over but the public place stays because it
means community "the venue is fresh" A place that decreases
people alienation from the physical setting A place, a public
space that is for people to congregate, make people feel
important, make them think
The best strategy for economic development
This message is everywhere in the economic development field Basically it says
• Learn about existing business, more specifically, about existing industrial clusters and help them
grow within a regional context You need a job base to support retail development --The smallest

REPORT ON THE HIGHLIGHTS OF LIVABLE CONAUNIMS
WORKSHOP IN RIVERSIDE MARCH 19,1997 - "Why Develop a
`Vision' for the City"
rently from other Livable Communities workshops, this one focused on how to implement
you want, once you know what you want. Others were only focused on urban design
tples and their positive impacts New insights bring people hope'
What is a City?
"A City is not a vending machine where you place your money (pay taxes) and get
something out of it (police protection, roads, affordable housing, park maintenance,
etc)"
Perhaps the government's goal, the City main job is to bring the community together.
The educators, the policemen, brokers, parents, strollers, city officials to work together
Everyone is to be needed in one way or another To teach the people not to expect from
government but come and be a part of it, be the solution. Make communities more
livable
In the 21 st century with the new technology age, people and business will move to where
they want and where is most desirable Places with no distinction with hostile
environments will pass by history
"Planning is a passion not just a profession". For that many of our citizens can help us to
plan for our fun time By doing it they will be caring for their lads, their safety, basic
needs and provision of seniors'
"Leaders are agents of change, to fix things wrong and preserve the good and right ones "

The Need For Safer Streets: Cars kill more
people than strangers with guns (at a ratio of
16 to 1), according to research performed by
the Environmental Working Group and the
Surface Transportation Policy Project And
for every pedestrian that is killed by an
automobile, 20 more are mjured- a total of
110AM across the United States every year
Young children are particularly vulnerable.
Thirty-nme percent of all children aged 12
and younger who are killed in motor veiude
accidents are killed while walking or riding
bicycles, according to the Conservation Law
Anyone who has iced the hmnIation of
traffic school has also learned that the h)gtier
yourspeed,the worsey&raoodent The
of a pedestrian being killed is 3.5
pane dEE i a vehicle is traveling at 15 miles
per hour, but increases more than tenfold to 37
percw at 31 miles per hour and 83 pens& at 44
nulesper hour Taws, making roads wider,
straighter, and easier for drivers to go fast IS
actually creating a health hazard.
In spite of this fact, only one percent of high-
way safety money is being used to protect
pedestrians. The rest is spent on automotive
"safety measures," such as road widenmg. In
fact, the Highway Capacity Manual — which
serves as guidance for the industry — defines
a pedestrian as a traffic 'flow mterruptim'
Engineers are slowly beguuung to under-
stand, however, Out making road improve-
ments that allow cars to drive faster are not
improving public safety at all. An author of a
guide to highway planning and design in
Vermont notes, "A stretch of Woad that is
uniformly too narrow, too curvy, -too steep
may in fact be safer than the same stretch
with several short -unproved' sections."
Tragic Calming As A Solutwm Fifty-five
percent of all pedestrian deaths occur on
neighborhood streets The death rate is
highest in newer, sprawling Southern and
Western,commumties which are designed for,°
the cat as the major (or only) source of trans-
portation Local governments have a unique
opportunity to address this problem and
cities across the nation are doing so The
major antidote is "traffic calming," a tech-
nique by which traffic is slowed and streets
are reclaimed for the pedestrian and the
neighborhood. In Seattle, the city's traffic
calming program has reduced pedestrian
accidents by more than 75 percent
=rg,,n a yu8Tg
Investing in traffic calming pays it costs back
quiddy An analysis performed for the
Bnhsh Columbia Insurance Corporation
comparing claims cost savings against project
expenses found an average payback period of
a mere six months. Among the most effective
strategies is the traffic circle, which has
reduced accidents by 82 percent in Vancou-
ver, British Columbia, and 50 percent in
Portland, Oregon. The cost of a traffic circle
is estimated by a USA Today report at $6,000
Chicanes slow
cars by alter-
nating street
parking or
landscaping
from one side
of the road to
the other or
placing an
island in the
middle of the
street so that
the driver sees
a zigzagged
road rather
is strategy
reduced accidents by 82 percent in Vancou-
ver The average cost is $13,000
Narrowing the mad through extendmg
curbing at street crossings will cost $2,000 to
$5AW This street improvement has reduced
accidents in Vancouver, British Columbia by
75 percent
Speed bumps cost about g1,500 and reduced
Vancouver accidents by 74 percent Reduc-
ing the speed lin it, while it is me gmmve,
seems to be the least effective strategy, cut-
ting accidents by only 30 percent
Commg Trafic Reduces Crime Too Traffic
calming may not only reduce the number of
people killed by can, it may also reduce the
number of people killed by strangers with

SP-85-10-Al and SA-97-02, an Application for Specific Plan
Amendment (T.J Austyn Specific Plan) for new housing product on
28 remaining lots of tract 13050 at Lark and Kingfisher
TION. Pleasure of the Council
its meeting of September 4, 1997, the Planning Commission denied subject project on a vote of 4 to 3,
h Vice -Chairperson Van Gelder, Chairman Sims and Commissioner Wilson voting in favor of project.
most important factors influencing denial were
Developer was not willing to delete the remaining 2 - 1,353 square foot homes
T J Austyn's Specific Plan was planned to transition from diversified neighborhoods to larger
homes area as it approached the 20,000 square foot/lot zone area toward the southeasterly
direction of this tract.
These are some of the last parcels in Grand Terrace feasible for larger homes
refer to Attachment A - Planning Commission denial resolution, to understand fully all
and fmdmgs of denial
in favor made statement such as
The homes have sunilar massmg as the previously approved homes and a good curb appeal from
the street. Architecture and construction appears to be of good quality, lot sizes are good size
and neighborfrood is stable The housing market fluctuates and we should not base a decision on
the status today These houses will fit in well
Single story houses are desired by seniors and overall median is compatible with area Number
of lots is not significant to affect the area negatively

vary from 7,200 to 8,000 square feet on Lark Street to 10,800 to 12,000 square feet on
Kingfisher
Public input has been significant in relation to other projects and predominantly against the
project due to downsizing of project homes The developer had a neighborhood meeting which
was attended by approximately 25 people voicing their discontent. At that time staff had not
reached a compromise with developer Approximately 150 residents were noticed by the
developer The Planning Commission public hearing was noticed twice due to continuance and
the City Council meeting was noticed once We received three letters from neighbors Please
refer to Planning Commission report, Exhibit 1 Attachment O and Attachment C of this report
Approximately 8 residents were present at the Planning Commission meeting also to voice their
discontent Their major statements were
• "T J Austyn promised us the new houses would be the same size or larger than ours "
• "We do not want K-Marts or Wal-Marts We want people that purchase at May
Company, Hams, etc " I can't sell a 3,000 square foot house if it is close to a 1,350 or
1,500 square foot house
• Larger houses will sell faster than smaller houses
• No more larger lots are available in Grand Terrace This is our last chance for larger
houses
• 1,800 median is a good effort of staff however not enough
• smaller houses will be more likely to become rentals
• either build big or don't build at all, etc
Draft minutes will be available at the day of the City Council meeting
RECOMMENDATION.
Since staff would like to continue recommendation for approval and Planning Commission
direction is denial, our final recommendation is at the pleasure of the Councd.

I agree that it is desirable at some time to build out this development. However, we feel a strong
sense of betrayal on the part of the City of Grand Terrace if the amendment to the previously
approved planned development is approved
The developer is suggesting the following
1 Mat as the price per square foot for the new homes is higher than what we and other
homeowners in this development paid, that this will increase the value of our homes
However, while the selling price of these homes is supposed to be between $140,000 and
$160,000,1 know of nothing that will force the developer to sell at these prices If he
cannot sell these homes at the listed prices, what is to stop him discounting them9 And
we still fail to see how the price per square foot of a home is a major consideration when
purchasing
2 That it is better to have the lots built out than not Quite frankly, we would prefer to have
the kris vacant for a few more years than to have single storey 1,300 square foot homes
3 That the value of our homes has dropped 30% since we purchased This is simply not
true Based on recent sales, as well as evaluations, the value of our home is currently
approximately 10% lower than when we purchased In addition, the market is very
clearly moving up, albeit very slowly - -
l� We understand very clearly that the market has changed since we purchased five years ago
However, the real estate market has always been cyclical, and always will be The market in
Grand I erracc will pick up again, and it does not make sense in any way to build smaller homes,
with some very small single storey homes, none with walk in closets, on the last and best view
lots in this development
We are not opposed to development. However, we, and many of our neighbors; are very much
opposed to single storey,1,300 square foot homes with no walk in closets In our opinion,
nothing should be built in this development than is smaller that what was approved by the City in
the original plan
We sincerely believe that if the City of Grand Terrace were to approve the amendment, that they
and the: residents will regret this decision for many years to come

isically we would have the right to deny such a project based on City discretionary power as set forth
our Zoning Codes, General Plan and several court cages. Our negative findings could be related to, 1)
meral Plan and Housing Element goal for a balanced housing ma, and more availability for larger
uses, 2) the fact that these are the few last lots where larger houses would be feasible; 3) the fact that
the City denying taus project is not denying development rights of the property owner; 4) the lack of
mpatibilrty with existing development as previously approved with a median of 2,000 square feet
mpared to the proposed project median of 1,600 square feet (median point means that 50% of the
uses are at or above that point), and 5) the duty of the Planning Commission and City Council to

L BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
etor's NoW
section of the report is to provide the Plannmg Commission with information on project background, code
irements, outside agency comments, staff development review process, and negotiations with applicant over
two months.
Austin Specific Plan project as a whole included 170 units in three tracts. Tract 13050 had 85
i of which 28 lots were not bush. Currently the applicant desires to amend the Specific Plan to
.r only floor plan square footage of housing to meet market demands. No lot configuration,
dscapmg, or other conditions are being requested to be changed. _
The applicant, Diversified Pacific Homes, Ltd-, submitted a Specific Plan Amendment and Site and
Architectural Review application on June 3, 1997 to modify the square footage and architectural
design of 28 undeveloped housing units in Specific Plan 85-10 Specific Plan 85-10 contains 170
residential lots of which 85 lots are located in the "Field Crest' development, north of Van Buren
Street, and 85 lots are located in the "Terrace Hills" development. The 28 lots in question are the
remaining undeveloped parcels of T.J. Austyn's "Terrace Hills" development which are included
in the original 95 lots Please refer to Housing Analysis - Total Units Table - Attachment L, and
Study area Map Attachment IC The applicant has made a good faith effort to bang the new housing
I
roducts square footage close to Community and Economic Development Department
recommendation since submitting an application. On August 14, 1997, the applicant held a
neighborhood meeting to present their new products and to hear concerns from the neighbors.
Approximately 25 residents attended that meeting
AND AR :
Site
The proposed 28 lots contain graded pads, and small retaining walls designed to
facilitate required set back distances All street improvements including curb and
gutter and rough street paving have been installed by the previous developer In
addition, lights and utilities have also been installed. All stream improvements,
retaining walls, slopes, and drive approaches will not be modified with the

real estate brokers, review of building permits and TRW reports, and conducting field
inspections The following information was denved from the study
1) Median housing square footle m the study area (refer to Housing Analysis
Table 5 - Median Units in the Study Area, Attachment L)
O Existing Specific Plan 1,800 square feet
O With Diversified Pacific Homes Proposal 1,800 square feet
O Without 28 lots 1,800 square feet
Finding Median housing square footage in the study area as a
whole is not affected by proposed project,
2) Average housing s�auare_ footage in the study area (refer to Housing Analysis
Table 6 - Average Square Footage, Attachment L)
O Fasting Specific Plan 1,783 square feet
O With Diversified Pacific Homes Proposal 1,761 square feet
O Without 28 lots 1,771 square feet
Finding Average housing square footage in the study area as a
whole is not affected by Proposed project
3) Impact of Diversified Homes proposal on study area as a whole (refer to
Housing Analysis Table 2 and associated charts - Comparison of Existing and
Proposed, Attachment L) —
1,800 to 2,000 square foot units:
O Without pa==L area contains 219 units between 1,800 and 2,000
square feet which is 64% of all housing in the study area.
O With ^off area will contain 205 units between 1,800 and 2,000
square fi:et which will be 60% of all housing in the study area.
Fmdmg• The proposal will reduce this category of housM by 4'/.
or 14 units
1,500 to 1,700 square foot units:
O Without p=saL area contains 88 units between 1,500 and 1,700 square
feet which is 26% of all housing in the study area.
O With IMRML area will contain 98 units between 1,500 and 1,700
square feet which will be 29% of all housing in the study area.
Finding The proposal will increase this category of housing by
3% or 10 units. _
Negative Findings:
Positive Findings:
6
The proposal Average is 1,657 square feet, while the am
Average
including approved specific plan is 1,783 square feet
(Please
refer to Table 6 and 9 in Attachment L)
7 Although the applicant has made a good faith effort to
mcrease the square footage by including bonus rooms within
the garage space, there is no guarantee that tee home owners
uhlize the bonus room space Bonus room is not integral
of floor plan nor part of house base package even though
it does have the potential to increase square footage
8 The current market may only bear houses in the range of
S 140,000 to S 160,000, thus the applicant is justifying the
construction of smaller units What if the market would only
bear houses in the range of W4120,0W Staff finds that
this alone is not in of itself justification to construct smaller
homes
9 Based on market data submitted by the applicant,
"comparabks"
(Attachment - M) are low and the area lacks
"floor" In other words then is no dynamic trade taking
the Baie l'on this
piece in area. information, proposed
"mg may not sell for prices estimated by applicant of high
Ss to S 106 per square foot.
10 Other comparables in the area are associated with distress
sales and an relatively lower than apphmt's estimate cash
for the new homes, so it is unl&ely that subject homes will be
able to sell above the cost of existing homes which an much
larger than proposed homes
Analysis Conclusion:
As proposed, the projects greatest impact is on the immediate neighborhood. As illustrated on the
housing analysis area map (to be presented at Planning Commission meeting), the smaller units are
dispersed through out the area, and even where there is a lugh concentration of smaller units they are
well dispersed among larger units
Why is it important to carefully disperse smaller units m an area where larger homes are perceived to
be predominate? In simple terms it upholds the "self policing" mechanism most evident in this kind
of setting For example, larger houses demand larger household incomes and owners of these type
homes give priority to a well maintained neighborhood. Smaller homes on the other hand are usually
sold to first-time home buyers with low to moderate income levels, and owners of these homes would
like to live m high -end neighborhoods, but historically are located in low -end neighborhoods where
beatarfic�tion of front yards is not as lugh a priority A mixture of these two dynamics creates the "sdf
policing" mechanism where the owners of larger homes monitor the upkeep of the smaller homes in

ISSUES UNRESOLVED:
Director's Note:
Tin section of the report is to request Planning Commission input/resolution of unresolved issues Unresolved
issues are conditions of approval which reflect either City Codes, rmewmg agency comments, and/or
development revww'condmons applicant has not agreed to, and staff has no authority to waive, or staff does not
feel comfortable wceptmg applicant's sohition. 'Iliese issues are the ones the Planning Commission should be
most concerned with. Other project items the Plannmg Commission should try to understand are the facts which
underlined staff resolutions through the development review process, and try as much as possible to compliment
the procem
two main issues associated with the applicant's proposal, is the reduction of square footage and
usion of single story housing units into an immediate neighborhood of 2 story units ranging from
3 to 2,009 square foot housing units Per the Housing Analysis outlined earlier, the smaller units
single story units may have an impact on the immediate neighborhood, which Diversified Pacific
nes, Inc disagrees with. They state their marketing plan requires a few smaller units The
rmation generated from the analysis and the applicant's good faith effort to increase the product
ne footage is just enough for Staff not to recommend denial. However, it is important to stress the
1 for a balanced community and how one neighborhood affects that balance of housing mix of the
as a whole
The City of Grand Terrace has few areas left for construction of new residential development. The
project location area as well as the remaining undeveloped land in the Honeyhills subdivision are the
Iasi remaining areas in the City desirable for larger homes The City currently has an abundant amount
of medium sized housing units which are in good condition, and those that are in some state of disrepair
or vacant are currently eligible for the City's Housing Rehabilitation program. Because this area is so
desirable for larger homes, it is imperative that the proposed project be amended to reflect the need for
a l glanced community As ix, the project does not benefit the City as a whole and it negatively impacts
the local neighborhood

Re Ti at t Nu 13050 (28 Lots)
Dear Patrizia
Many thanks for meeting with Pete Pitassi, Mike HLxson and me to discuss our plans to
develop the 28 vacant lots at the above referenced tract in Grand Terrace
Under a separate cover Mr FExson is sending your office all the data plus renderings of
the houses that support the fact that our plans for these 28 lots actually bnng increased
value to the neighborhood, even though the plans we are proposing are smaller than some
of the homes built in the area
We understand that you would Like us to build a larger house on this site, but as I
explained to you, with the aNerage resale of a 2000 square foot house m this area at about
S 162,000, we could not afford to offer this same house, given the residual lot values, for
less then $190,0001 Even at this pnce, these homes would not include the same high spec
level we plan for the product we are proposing
By offering a smaller house for 20% more in sales price per square foot, we are actually
supporting the existing prices in taus area, and conceivably unprovirng the opportunity for
prices to increase on the larger square foot homes that are presently in this neighborhood
When people pay more for our homes on a per square foot price, those buyers who µant
larger homes would be willing to pay more, gi`,en the existing property is in good
condition, etc
I admire your commitment to Grand Terrace and its community pride, and understand
your desire to do anything you can from your position to help your city I hope you
understand what we are proposing is our best effort given the economic and market
conditions

SLBJECT TRACT 13050 (28 Lots)
Dear Ms Materassi and fir %fainez
Thank you for meeting with us this week to discuss our plan for the subject lots As a result
of our meeting, we are documenting on behalf of our client, Diversified Pacific Homes Ltd ,
the market and site analysis conclusions that we used to determine highest and best use
analysis of the site, given current market conditions
Current Neighborhood Values The attached document, "Grand Terrace Site Review,"
is a table of values derived from all reported Multiple Listing Service (Realtor) transactions
that have occurred during 1996 and 1997, along with all value -reported tax assessor transfers
for 1996 and 1997, for Tract 'dumber 13050 (the unmediate neighborhood)
You will note a range of values from $123,000 to $161,500, for homes from 1499 to 2045
square feet Significant findings are as follows
1 No significant value trends, multiple sales prices for same -size units, no active
listings, all indicating no "floor" on values for larger homes in the area-
2 Resale values lower than cost -to -replace measures
3 No new construction in area for roughly 7 years
Proposed Plans Proposed building plans, all within code guidelines, would provide for
homes smaller than neighborhood's largest plans, but at substantially higher price -per -
square -foot values, with anticipated sales prices at the top of current sales values
Current propertyy owners should benefit from the following results
Larger homes will sell for prices higher than the smaller new -construction, now
that values can be established Current sales prices only reflect the degree of
distress of the selling property owner

Grand Terrace, CA 92313
Attn Ms Patrizia Materassi
Dear Ms Materassi
This letter is in response to the Application for Amendment of a
Specific Plan for 28 existing lots on Lark St and Kingfis�-.er Rd
I am in opposition to the product design change proposed by
Diversified Pacific Homes, Ltd It is my opinion that any changes
to the size of the homes to ce built on these lots would have a
negative impact on the immeaiate area and the City of Grand
Terrace as a whole The immediate area ad3acent to these lots has
the reputation of an area of larger homes This reputation
attracts a buyer who require a larger home or who desires live in
an area where homes are of a larger square footage
This specific area of Grand Terrace has an image of a housing
development that offers this category of home I have spoken with
several individuals who have shopped for homes in this area
because it has the reputation of large spacious homes that are
well maintained Changes to the size of homes on these lots may
deter these buyers from shopping for property in this area
It is my opinion that the Planning Commission should reserve this
area for the homeowner who wishes a larger home It is one of the
last remaining undeveloped parcels in the City and the long term
reputation and image of the City would be well served to maintain
the original architectural design for these lots
Sincerely,
M C'U'U

COUNCIL ITEM (XX) MEETING DATE September 11, 1997
SUBJECT SOFTBALL FIELD REHABILITATION PROJECT
FUNDING REQUIRED (XX)
BACKGROUND:
In the hearings for the 1997-98 Fiscal Year Budget, staff requested funding for the
rehabilitation of the Pico Park Softball Diamond and the Soccer Field at Richard Rollins
Park The Council removed these items from the budget with the direction that staff bring
these items back at a later date
DISCUSSION:
U Staff is bringing the request back to the City Council requesting authorization to proceed
with a rehabilitation of the Pico Park Softball Field #1 The problems with the field are
significant, including numerous ruts and holes caused by gophers, erosion due to the grade
of the field and problems with compaction In all, the field is in need of rehabilitation.
Specifically, the project proposed will include as follows
1 A survey of the field to re -set lines and reposition the field as a regulation softball
diamond This will include setting the uifield standards to both Men's and Youth lines
and distances The survey will also be used to establish a proper grade for the field to
allow proper drainage and bring it into similarity with the rest of Pico Park.
2 Re -grading and compacting the field This will also include the importation of soil to
help level the playing surface
3 Re-allignment and installation of additional irrigation It is anticipated that project will
include extending the grass line for the outfield further into the infield This will
require an run of at least one additional row of sprinklers
4 Re -seeding the field (outfield only)
The is anticipated to cost between $16,000 and $18,000
Staff is requesting authorization to re -program $10,000 from the Park Maintenance
Account (10-450-705) which was previously allocated for the purchase of a park utility

COUNCIL ITEM (3X ) MEETING DATE September 11, 1997
SUBJECT PICO PARK SCOREBOARDS GRAND TERRACE LITTLE LEAGUE
NO FUNDING REQUIRED
BACKGROUND:
Since the opening of Pico Park, Star in conjunction with the Grand Terrace Little League
Board have worked together on a number of projects to improve our parks to meet
various needs which have arisen since the opening in August, 1994 Many of these
projects have been done in partnership with Little League on both a financial and labor
basis These have included the following
1 Extending the bull pen fencing along the Little League Fields 2 and 3
2 Raising the fencing of the Softball Field #1 to protect spectators
3 Improvements to the fields at both Pico Park and Terrace Ifills Field in the areas of
adding additional brick dust and increased maintenance of the fields
4 Improvements to the snack bar and dug out areas
In many of these cases, Little League has been not only an advocate for the changes, but
also the primary financial contributor to projects Probably the best example of Little
Leagues commitment to enhancing their facilities is the work done at the Terrace Hulls
Field
Since 1995, Little League has contributed to the improvements on the field m three major
ways First, they installed approximately 100 feet of chain link fencing m left field, creating
a "home run" fence and helping to enclose the field Second, they, in partnership with the
City, re -surveyed the field, re -set base lines, pitching mounds and had volunteers re -grade
the field to bring it into conformance with little league standards The City of Grand
Terrace paid for approximately 80 tons of brick dust and provided the labor to install and
level the playing field Thirdly and most significantly, GTLL paid for the complete
replacement of the chain link fencing of the backstop and the pouring of concrete
walkways m excess of over 2,000 square feet

PART-TIME AND TEMPORARY MMOYEES
NO FUNDING REQUIRED
Currently, part-time and temporary (i e seasonal recreation workers) are, by law, covered under
the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA), if they are not covered under the City PERS
plan PERS requires that employees engaged in at least 1,000 hours per year be covered under
PERS
The City now has the opportunity to set up an alternative retirement plan for part -tune and
temporary employees Last year AB2400 was passed to give public agencies more opportunity to
start an alternative retirement plan and spell out the process and procedure of employee
notifications, elections and coordination with PERS
Employees currently contribute 6 20/6 of gross wages for FICA The City is required to contribute
a matching 6 2% for FICA The City may set up an alternative social security plan and reduce or
eliminate the required matching 6 21/6, as long as it is an allowable plan, and that the total
contribution is 7 S% as per Federal guidelines The management and trustee costs may be divided
between the City and the participant
The City would join other agencies in a 401(a) plan that is administered by Phase H Systems
Contributions to the PARS Alternate Retirement System will be handled and invested by the
Union Bank of California, the trustee of the plan. The City may delegate direction of the plan
assets on behalf of the employee or direct the Trustee to invest the assets of the plan.
The City will be able to achieve a small, but permanent, savings on the FICA matching portion
that would no longer be contributed The City will have no unfunded liability smce this is a
defined contribution plan. The City will have control over contributions in the PARS-ARS plan.

Staff is recommending that the City "pick up" 13% as its' share of the contribution along with the
employee share of 6 r/® to reach the 7 S% contribution requirement Staff is recommending that
the employee pay all maintenance expenses in heu of the City's "pick up" share of 13%
Maintenance expenses include service fees, asset management fees, trustee fees and a termination
fee
Staff recommends the employee policy to be implemented
A) Full-time or part time Employees in PERS who are vested, at the time
alternative plan is adopted
NO ACTION Necessary! They must remain in PER&
B) Full-time Employees who are in PERS but who are not vested at the time the
alternative plan is adopted
Within 90 days after adoption of alternative plan , they must elect to
either remain in PERS or elect the Alternative Plan, however, this
would not take effect unless the employee went below 1,000 hours per
year and was not yet 100% vested in PER&
C) Part-time or Temporary Employees who are non -vested members of PERS,
(and under 1,000 annual hours) and who were hired before the adoption of
the alternative plan.
Within 90 days after adoption of alternative plan , they must elect to
either remain in PERS or elect the Alternative Plan.

The Plan is to celebrate our heritage while looking with enthusiasm to our future, as it is
important for communities to celebrate those special moments in their history The Grand
Terrace family has grown considerably since 1978, and I am sure our new members will
welcome knowing more about this special place we call home
The Plan is to build pride in our community by creating a special 20th Anniversary feeling in our
City The hope is to create a theme that can be incorporated into plans of the existing
commissions and programs/projects The whole focus will be to enrich the already great
programs we have in the City, and to provide the opportunity for our residents and businesses
to know more about where we have been and where we are going Our current Calendar of
Community Events includes the following
