AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2024 Council Item
TITLE: Implementation of Additional Video Surveillance Cameras in
the Public Right-Of-Way
PRESENTED BY: Judith Garcia, Management Analyst
RECOMMENDATION: Approve Purchase Order for $84,000 with Flock Safety for
the Purchase, Installation, and Subscription of Video
Surveillance Cameras in the Public Right-Of-Way
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #2, Maintain Public Safety, by investing in Critical
Improvements to Infrastructure.
BACKGROUND:
On October 27, 2015, the Council approved resources to enhance public safety
services in our community. The implementation of a comprehensive video surveillance
system in Grand Terrace was authorized. The Council and community have advocated
for enhanced public safety measures, including the adoption of surveillance cameras.
On March 8, 2016, the Council allocated funding for video surveillance infrastructure.
This included allocating $48,562 to Security Lines USA for installing Video Surveillance
Cameras in the public right-of-way and $5,124.60 for upgrading park cameras in
Richard Rollins and Pico Park.
The City has consistently had some level of video surveillance since 2015.
DISCUSSION:
The decision to adopt Flock Safety Falcon cameras from Flock Safety aligns with the
City's ongoing commitment to improving public safety and surveillance capabilities.
These 12 cameras are equipped with features such as facial recognition and license
plate recognition technology, which can significantly assist law enforcement in tracking
and identifying vehicles associated with criminal activities. The placement of the
cameras was determined by the crime statistics reporting division of the Sheriff
Intelligence Bureau. The placements collaborate with neighboring jurisdictions that
adopted the same camera system, allowing the Sheriff's Department to share and track
criminal activity across jurisdictional borders. Data is accessible through law
enforcement channels providing its safety and security. Extended data retention
capabilities ensure the secure storage of crucial information for 365 days, facilitating
future reference and analysis.
E.3
Packet Pg. 11
By investing in Flock cameras, the City of Grand Terrace demonstrates its dedication to
leveraging technological advancements to strengthen public safety initiatives. The
deployment of these cameras is expected to enhance surveillance capabilities, deter
criminal activities, and provide valuable support to law enforcement agencies in
safeguarding the welfare and security of residents.
FISCAL IMPACT:
First year installation and operations costs are $44,400. Subsequent years recurring
costs are $39,600. This agreement is for 24 months with a total initial cost of $84,000.
Funds will be allocated from the General Fund Account #10-410-900-000-000, Law
Enforcement City Crime Deterrent Expenses.

PRESENTED BY: Shanita Tillman, Senior Management Analyst
RECOMMENDATION: 1. Award a Construction Contract to All League Fence
Co. In the amount of $32,925.
2. Authorize City Manager to execute the Contract and
any necessary Change Orders for this project.
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #2 "Maintain Public Safety" by investing in critical
improvements to infrastructure.
BACKGROUND:
The City's intention to install a fence along Canal St. arises from the area's status as a
highly trafficked lookout point. While some individuals use the space to unlawfully park
and watch fireworks during the Fourth of July, others have become a nuisance by
illegally parking their vehicles on this private property and leaving behind litter such as
trash and glass. The primary objective of installing the fence is to prevent unauthorized
access to the landing while still allowing access to Edison, as the land belongs to them,
but the fence will fall within our right of way.
DISCUSSION:
On January 26, 2024, staff issued an invitation to bid for a 2-rail fence with vinyl posts
and (3) access gates along Canal St. between Newport Ave & Mt. Vernon Ave. The
submission deadline was February 6, 2024, resulting in two bids:
Bid 1 All League Fence Co $32,925.00
Bid 2 Eleazar General Engineering Inc. $46,171.80
All League Fence Co. emerged as the lowest responsive bidder, holding a valid
contractor's license with positive references. Construction is anticipated to begin
promptly following council approval and is scheduled for completion within four working
days.
Staff recommends that the Council award the Construction Contract to All League
Fence Co. for the 2-Rail Fence Installation with (3) access gates, and authorize the City

Manager to execute the contract and any necessary change orders for the project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The appropriation of $32,925 from account 10-175-257-000 Contractual Svcs - Road
Maintenance will have a direct fiscal impact, covering the costs associated with the
installation of the fence. This expenditure aims to enhance road infrastructure and
ensure public safety along Canal St:

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2024 Council Item
TITLE: Accept and Approve a Memorandum of Understanding
Between the City of Grand Terrace and the Teamsters Local
1932 for the Period of May 1, 2024 through June 30, 2027
PRESENTED BY: Konrad Bolowich, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF GRAND TERRACE, CALIFORNIA ACCEPTING
AND APPROVING A MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE CITY OF GRAND
TERRACE AND TEAMSTERS LOCAL 1932, FOR THE
PERIOD OF MAY 1, 2024, THROUGH JUNE 30, 2027
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #1, Ensure our Fiscal Viability.
BACKGROUND:
The current MOU between the City and Teamsters Local 1932 (“Teamsters”) is set to
expire at the end of June 2024. In preparation for this, the City conducted a salary and
position survey for all current positions to determine the adequacy of compensation
levels. The goal was to evaluate Grand Terrace's compensation levels relative to other
agencies in the area and to similar-sized cities.
The City used compensation data from Colton, Fontana, Highland, Loma Linda, and
Rialto as comparables for local cities. These cities were selected because they are in
the same area as Grand Terrace and, in one way or another, represent similar types of
communities demographically. San Bernardino, Riverside, and Redlands were
specifically excluded due to their status as large cities that represent a different
demographic than Grand Terrace.
For similar-sized cities, the City used comparables from Adelanto, Calimesa, Canyon
Lake, and Yucca Valley. While not all direct competitors in the same labor pool as Grand
Terrace, they all represent cities with similar constraints and populations.
The survey revealed that in every position, City employees were paid less than the next
lowest comparable, with many positions being compensated at 20-30 percent below the
average for similar positions. This wide disparity in wages has made it difficult to attract
and retain qualified employees, leading to high turnover and difficulties in completing
longer-term projects.
E.5
Packet Pg. 22
Additionally, a review of current wage scales showed wage compression in most
positions that led to a lack of promotion. In many cases, the position promoted into was
at a similar wage as the junior position, removing incentives for the adoption of
additional skills, promotion, or retention of skilled employees, resulting in a loss of
institutional memory, high turnover, and under-skilled employees.
The City's compensatory benefits are also below average, with health insurance
compensation being $200 to $300 below surveyed cities. There is no uniform
allowance, no educational incentive, and no incentive for retention or additional training.
DISCUSSION:
Pursuant to the provisions of the Meyers-MilIias-Brown Act, Government Code Section
3500 et seq. ("MMBA”), the City and Teamsters engaged in good faith negotiations
regarding wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment for the
purposes of reaching a tentative agreement on a successor Memorandum of
Understanding (“MOU”). The City and Teamsters reached a tentative agreement that
was ratified by Teamsters on or about April 17, 2024 by a vote of its membership. The
City and Teamsters representatives have jointly and in good faith prepared a successor
MOU which they are now submitting to the City Council to be considered, accepted, and
approved.
The City’s initial goal was to explore bringing base salaries close to the median for each
position. However, after calculating costs and considering the current budget, it was
determined that achieving the median was not feasible. As a result, comparable wages
for each position were segmented into twelfths, creating a range that includes the
bottom 1/3rd (4/12), the median (6/12), and a point in between at 5/12th of the range.
The aim is to bring pay into the bottom 1/3rd in the first year of the contract, with
incremental increases over the term of the agreement to reach wages near the median
by the third year. This phased approach is financially achievable as it spreads the
increases over three years. However, since the current inflation rate for Southern
California is around 6%, a 5% raise would not keep up with the cost-of-living increases
in the region. This means employees would still see a decrease in their purchasing
power over time due to the rising cost of goods and services.
The proposed MOU also addresses healthcare costs, which are currently indexed to
Kaiser costs for a single employee. This benefit has a greater impact for those at the
lower end of the pay spectrum, as compensation for this is typically a flat amount, not
an hourly increase. The proposal is to increase this benefit by a non-indexed amount
that will closely reflect current costs for an employee plus one dependent.
Additionally, there is currently no uniform allowance for uniformed employees, which
means there is no ability to cap uniform costs or ensure that uniformed employees are
properly representing the City. The proposed MOU includes a uniform allowance for
each uniformed employee as well as a small allowance for Grand Terrace logoed
E.5
Packet Pg. 23
apparel for non-uniformed employees.
To incentivize employees to acquire skills beyond the minimum required for their
positions, the proposal includes certification incentive pay for certifications such as
playground inspection, pesticide use, and notary license, which enhance job
performance. Contributions towards tuition reimbursement for work leading to a 2-year,
4-year, or graduate degree will also be offered to encourage skill development.
To aid in retention, steps are being added for employees who have been in the same
position for 10, 15, and 20 years. Additionally, issues with wage compression between
positions have been rectified to create a clear pathway for promotion and professional
growth within the organization. These actions are expected to increase retention,
reduce costs associated with turnover, and provide for smoother continuous operations.
Finally, multiple positions that are currently vacant are being eliminated due to duplicate
job requirements, a clear lack of need for the position, or to clarify a career growth
pathway.
In aggregate, the proposed MOU provides a compensation package that is still below
the median for local and similar-sized cities but does make significant advances toward
bringing the City's compensation to parity. Additional considerations provide for a
package that promotes retention, professional growth, and promotion within the
organization.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
None.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Impacts for the current fiscal year are included in mid-year surpluses. Future impacts
will be included as part of the budget process.

ARTICLE 4 – NEW EMPLOYEE ORIENTATION
A. New employee orientation means an "in person" meeting designated as such and
scheduled with representatives of the City of Grand Terrace to advise and inform
new employees of their employment benefits, responsibilities, City Rules, and other
similar related matters. The City will provide written notice (by email, letter, or
text) to Teamsters of all new employee orientations, which Teamsters represents,
no less than ten (10) days prior to the scheduled orientation unless the urgent needs
of City in hiring do not allow for 10 days’ notice. The new employee orientation
notice provided to the Union shall include the date, time, and location of the
orientation. If Teamsters or its representative are not available on the day or time
the City has scheduled its orientation, the City will allow the Teamsters to meet
with the new employee within a week of hire.
B. Teamsters will be provided the opportunity to have up to two (2) representatives to
meet with the new employee for up to 45 minutes of uninterrupted private time
prior to or following of the new employee orientation. Teamsters may provide
written materials, including a packet of information, to the new employee(s).
Teamsters agrees in its portion of the orientation not to engage in speech that could
cause substantial disruption or material interference with City business and
activities and to comply with all City policies and procedures.
C. Teamsters’ presentation will be conducted during the City’s regular work hours as
a regular part of the new employee orientation. The City shall allow a maximum of
one (1) employee release time to be present at the employee orientation. Approval
from the Department Director shall be authorized prior to a bargaining Unit
member attending the new employee orientation. At no time shall the bargaining
Unit member (acting as a Teamsters representative) meeting with the new employee
result in any overtime or additional costs to the City. A bargaining Unit member
attending the orientation as a Union representative shall do so during their regular
working hours so as to not incur additional costs to the City. Teamsters will provide
the Human Resources Director at least 48 working day hours in advance notice of
the name of the bargaining Unit member who they wish to attend the orientation.
Once the New Employee Orientation has been completed, the new employee shall
be granted early release, as necessary, to attend the next regular Local 1932
membership meeting, to be sworn in as a Teamsters member.
D. Within 30 days of hire or by the first pay period of the month following hire, the
City shall provide Teamsters with the name, job title, department, work location,
work, home and personal cellular telephone numbers, personal email addresses on
file with the employer, as well as home address of all newly hired employees.
E. At least every one hundred twenty (120) days, the City will provide Teamsters a
list of all employees in the Unit, including the employee’s name, job title,
department, current rate of pay, work location, home mailing address, personal

the City of any employee performing law enforcement-related functions, and the
City will not provide the Union with any home address, home telephone number,
personal cellular telephone number, or personal email address or date of birth of

of said information.
ARTICLE 5 – DUES DEDUCTIONS
A. Teamsters requests that the City deduct membership dues, initiation fees, and
general assessments, as well as payment of any other membership benefit program
sponsored by Teamsters, from the wages and salaries of members of Teamsters.
Teamsters hereby certifies that it has and shall maintain all such deduction
authorizations signed by the individual from whose salary or wages the deduction
is to be made and shall not be required to provide a copy of an individual
authorization to the City unless a dispute arises about the existence or terms of the
authorization. Teamsters dues shall be deducted each pay period in accordance
with City procedures and provisions of applicable law from the salary of each
employee whose name is provided by Teamsters. Per Gov’t Code section 1157.12,
Teamsters shall indemnify the City for any claims made by the employee for
deductions made in reliance on that certification.
B. The City shall provide for payroll deductions on each payroll period (twenty-four
times out of twenty-six payroll periods per calendar year). The City shall remit the
total amount of deductions to Teamsters within thirty (30) days of the date of the
deduction. Any changes in Teamsters dues must be given to the City a minimum
of thirty (30) days prior to change to accommodate changes to payroll.
ARTICLE 6 – DRIVE
The City agrees to deduct from the paycheck of all employees who submit
authorization cards and are covered by this agreement, voluntary contributions to
DRIVE. DRIVE shall notify the City of the amounts designated by each
contributing employee that are to be deducted from his/her paycheck on a bi-weekly
basis for all weeks worked. The phrase “weeks worked” includes any week in
which the employee has earnings. The City shall transmit to DRIVE National
Headquarters on a monthly basis, in one (1) check, the total amount deducted along
with the name of each employee on whose behalf a deduction is made, the
employee’s social security number and the amount deducted from that employee’s
paycheck. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters shall reimburse the City
annually for the City’s actual cost for the expense incurred in administering the
weekly payroll deduction plan.
ARTICLE 7 – SHOP STEWARDS
A. The Union or its members may designate a maximum of two (2) employee Stewards
to represent those employees in the Unit. The Union shall submit to the City a list

procedure specified above shall be deemed a denial of the grievance by the City
and entitle the grievant to appeal to the next level of review. Failure of the grievant
to comply with the time limits of the grievance procedure specified above shall
terminate the grievance and constitute a waiver and abandonment of the grievance
by the employee. The parties may extend time limits by mutual written agreement
in advance of the time limit deadline.

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2024 Council Item
TITLE: Annual Housing Element Progress Report for 2023
PRESENTED BY: Scott Hutter, Planning & Development Services Director
RECOMMENDATION: THAT THE CITY COUNCIL OF GRAND TERRACE,
CALIFORNIA, ADOPT A RESOLUTION RECEIVING AND
FILING THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE GENERAL PLAN
AND HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS
REPORT FOR THE 2023 CALENDAR YEAR
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
A compliant Housing Element supports Goal #1, Ensuring Fiscal Viability and Goal #3,
Promote Economic Development by providing an internally consistent General Plan.
BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65400, local jurisdictions are required
to provide an Annual General Plan and Housing Element Progress Report (APR) to the
California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and to the
Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) annually. The APR describes the
status of the Housing Element programs, housing production, and progress towards the
Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the prior calendar year (2022).
State law requires every city to update the Housing Element of their General Plan every
eight years. HCD refers to each eight-year planning period as a “cycle”. The City’s
Housing Element that covered the 2013-2021 planning period (RHNA Cycle 5) was
adopted by the City Council on September 27, 2016, and certified by the Department of
Housing and Community Development (HCD) as being in full compliance with state law
in 2016. The City’s Housing Element that will cover the 2021-2029 planning period
(RHNA Cycle 6) is currently in the process of being updated.
Attached for City Council review is the APR for calendar year 2023. The APR has been
prepared in the standardized format provided by HCD for annual reporting.
DISCUSSION:
Housing Production
The APR contains the total number of units constructed and the progress in
E.6
Packet Pg. 59
implementation of the City’s Housing Programs. As identified in the APR provided as
EXHIBIT A to Attachment 1 of this agenda staff report, a total of one (1) new residential
unit was completed and obtained Certificate of Occupancy in 2023.
RHNA Target Summary and APR
A key component of the APR is to track progress towards meeting the assigned RHNA
for each municipality in the State. The 6th Cycle RHNA allocated to the city 630 new
housing units as its fair share of the total number of units needed to meet forecasted
population growth in the SCAG region. Of these units, 189 are required to be affordable
for those with very-low incomes, 92 affordable for those with low-incomes, 106 for those
with moderate incomes, with 243 above-moderate units. The allocation of units, and the
City’s current progress toward achieving its RHNA targets is below:
Grand Terrace 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Allocation and Progress
Income Level RHNA UNITS 2021 Built 2022 Built 2023 Built
Very Low 189 - - 0
Low 92 - - 0
Moderate 106 - - 0
Above Moderate 243 1 1 1
Total 630 3

• Table C includes sites identified or rezoned to accommodate shortfall of housing
sites from the previous planning period, to meet a shortfall of sites noted in the
Housing Element, or to provide additional sites required by no net loss law under
Government Section 65863. If applicable, this data would serve as an addendum
to the sites inventory in the adopted Housing Element.

reported to the Housing and Community Development Department when
submitting the annual progress report under Government Code 7061(SB
649,2022,Cortese).
o The City of Grand Terrace did not adopt any tenant preference policies
during the 2023 reporting period.
• LEAP Reporting
o This table requires jurisdictions that have received the Local Early Action
Planning (LEAP) grant from the HCD to provide progress update on
planning efforts for housing production. On June 9, 2020, the City applied
for LEAP grant funding in the amount of $65,000 and executed an
agreement with the California Department of Housing and Community
Development for the preparation and adoption of the city’s Housing
Element Update for the 2021-2029 6th cycle period. On March 18, 2024,
the City signed and transmitted the extension documents for the LEAP
Grant to ensure the full amount will be available for the Housing Element
Update.

the City Council receive and file the APR for calendar year 2023. Planning staff shall
forward the report to the California Department of Housing and Community
Development (HCD) and to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) as
required by California Government Code Section 65400.

Optional: This runs a macro which checks to ensure all required fields are filled out. The macro will create two files saved in the same directory this APR file is saved in. One file will be a copy of the APR with highlighted cells which require information. The other file will be list of the problematic cells, along with a description of the nature of the error.
Optional: Save before running. This copies data on Table A2, and creates another workbook with the table split across 4 tabs, each of which can fit onto a single page for easier printing. Running this macro will remove the comments on the column headers, which contain the instructions. Do not save the APR file after running in order to preserve comments once it is reopened.
Optional: This macro identifies dates entered that occurred outside of the reporting year. RHNA credit is only
given for building permits issued during the reporting year.

The latest HE Update for 2021-2029 draft includes updated site that will be circulated in 2024 and will liley require upzoning.
Program 2: A new R3-20 zone, Medium High Density Residential District, was created to allow multiple-family development at a density of 20 units per acre, and which exclusively allows multiple-family and senior residential uses and permits owner-occupied and rental multi-family residential uses by-right. To ensure the availability of adequate sites to accommodate the City’s share of lower-income regional housing need, amendments to the Land Use Element of the General Plan and the Zoning Code will be processed to provide capacity for at least 42 additional lower-income units pursuant to Government Code Sections 65583.2(h) and (i). Rezoned parcels will be selected from the list of potential candidate sites identified in Table 8.30b and will meet the following requirements:
Land Use Element and Zoning Code amendments; Support low-income affordable housing productionAmendments in 2016; Ongoing implementation through the planning period
Land Use Element and Zoning Code amendments were adopted in 2016 that established an R3-24 (20-24 du/ac) zone, High Density Residential District, and zoned approximately 2 acres R3-24. An R3-24 Overlay District was also created which was applied on an additional 2 acres. The lastest HE Update for 2021-2029 draft will be propsoing upzoning sites.
• Zoning shall permit owner-occupied and rental multifamily residential use by right. “Use by right” shall mean that the City’s review of the owner-occupied or multifamily residential use may not require a conditional use permit, planned unit development permit, or other discretionary local government review or approval that would constitute a “project” for purposes of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). “Use by right” does not exempt the use from design review. However, that design review shall not constitute a “project” under CEQA. *Sites shall accommodate at least 16 units• Allowable density shall be 20 to 24 units per acre• At least 50 percent of the very-low- and low-income housing need shall be accommodated on sites designated for residential use and for which nonresidential uses or mixed-uses are not permitted, except that all of the very-low- and low-income housing need may be accommodated on sites designated for mixed uses if those sites allow 100 percent residential use and require that residential use occupy 50 percent of the total floor area of a mixed-use projectThe City will continue to facilitate affordable housing development with priority for projects that provide extremely-low-income units.
Land Use Element and Zoning Code amendments; Support low-income affordable housing productionAmendments in 2016; Ongoing implementation through the planning period
Land Use Element and Zoning Code amendments were adopted in 2016 that established an R3-24 (20-24 du/ac) zone, High Density Residential District, and zoned approximately 2 acres R3-24.

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2024 Council Item
TITLE: Council Member Request Panhandling
PRESENTED BY: Scott Hutter, Planning & Development Services Director
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1) receive the Staff
report; 2) provide input to City Staff.
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal No. 2 "Maintain Public Safety" by ensuring staff levels for
Police Services remain adequate for the Grand Terrace Community. The City of Grand
Terrace contracts with the San Bernardino County Sheriff-Coroner Department. The
Mission of the Department is to provide for the safety and protection of lives and
property through courteous and professional public service, problem solving, crime
prevention and law enforcement.
BACKGROUND:
If a City Council Member is interested in a task or project that will require more than one
hour of staff time to complete, the City Council Member shall submit the item to the City
Manager and the item shall be agendized at a future meeting to ask the City Council if
time should be spent on preparing a report on the proposed item.
DISCUSSION:
City Staff was asked to investigate the topic of “Panhandling” or “Begging” and how it is
addressed in Grand Terrace. For purposes of this agenda staff report the term
“Panhandling” will be used interchangeably with “Begging.” Panhandling in California is
treated as an expression of protected speech and can never be prohibited by a State,
County or Local Government.
Any sort of Panhandling Ordinance that a government would enact has to follow the
First Amendment’s constitutional right of “Freedom of Speech.” The constitutional right
of “Freedom of Speech” is applicable to both state and local government. Therefore,
any sort of local ordinance prohibiting “Panhandling” would most likely conflict with and
violate the First Amendment.
However, in California Penal Code there is a Section “647(c)” which specifically
addresses when the act of “Panhandling” goes beyond simply asking and crosses into
threats, harassment, and/or intimidation tactics.
Penal Code Section 647(c) reads as follows:
H.9
Packet Pg. 85
“Every person who willfully and maliciously obstructs the free movement of any
person on any street, sidewalk, or other public place or on or in any place open
to the public is guilty of a misdemeanor.
Nothing in this section affects the power of a county or a city to regulate conduct
upon a street, sidewalk, or other public place or on or in a place open to the
public.”
As written, Penal Code Section 647(c) is enforceable only to public places and does not
apply to private property. On private property the private property owner is responsible
for “Panhandling” which can lead to trespassing charges under Penal Code 602 PC.
There are clear distinctions between public and private property.
Examples of public property would include but not be limited to a public park, a
government building, a public bus, a city street and sidewalk. Examples of private
property would include a private residence, the property surrounding a private
residence, a private store and place of business.
When a “Panhandler” willfully and maliciously obstructs the free movement of a person
on a public street, public sidewalk, public building, public transportation system, public
place, or any other place open to the public, then they are committing a misdemeanor
crime. When “Panhandling” becomes willfully malicious to be the of being accosting the
Sheriff’s Department should be notified immediately to respond to the situation.
When a “Panhandler” violates Penal Code 647(c) some of the most frequent criminal
charges include but are not limited to the following:
> Penal Code 646.9 PC - Stalking.
> Penal Code 647 PC - Disorderly Conduct.
> Penal Code 415 PC - Disturbing the Peace.
When such an occurrence happens, the best recourse is for the victim(s) to contact the
Sheriff via 911. Typically, a violation of Penal Code 647(c) that results in a conviction
result in a maximum of one (1) year in jail and/or $1,000.00 fine.
CONCLUSION:
The Sheriff will respond to the scene and commence their investigation into the alleged
crime. As not all “Panhandler” activities are passive and domicile so it is important to
have the law enforcement supported and outfitted with personnel and equipment to
respond quickly to such incidents that occur within the community. The Penal Code
647(c) provides the Sheriff the statutory authority to address any malicious obstruction
of any person by a “Panhandler” on any street, sidewalk, public place, or place open to
the public.

Packet Pg. 86
FISCAL IMPACT:
Law enforcement response is contingent upon the funding and allocated budget to keep
up with costs to provide the services necessary for the City. Any future consideration of
providing more direct action on the panhandling matter in the city should include a fiscal
analysis that explores what funding is necessary for a Sheriff response that meets the
City Council’s directives.

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2024 Council Item
TITLE: Future Agenda Items Request - Discussion on Whether to
Bring Back an Ordinance Adding Additional Enforcement to
Street Racing and Street Takeovers
PRESENTED BY: Konrad Bolowich, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to Consider Whether to Bring Back an
Ordinance Adding Additional Enforcement to Street Racing
and Street Takeovers
2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff report supports Goal #2, Maintain Public Safety, and Ensure Staff Levels for
Police Service Remain Adequate for Our Community
BACKGROUND:
If a City Council Member is interested in a task or project that will require more than one
hour of staff time to complete, the City Council Member shall submit the item to the City
Manager and the item shall be agendized at a future meeting to ask the City Council if
time should be spent on preparing a report on the proposed item.
DISCUSSION:
At the regular meeting of the City Council on Tuesday, February 27, 2024, Council
Member Jeff Allen requested a Future Agenda Items Request to bring back at a future
meeting discussion to consider an ordinance regarding street takeovers and street
racing. Council Member Allen moved, with a second from Council Member Kenneth
Henderson to proceed with this request. The motion passed unanimously.
The two primary California Vehicle Code sections addressing this issue are Sections
23109a and 23109c. In addition, Section 23103 covers reckless driving and provides a
mechanism for vehicles to be impounded. The impound authority comes from Section
23109.2.
Attached is an ordinance from the City of Compton which adds additional sections
bringing enforcement upon spectators of such events, and the ability to confiscate
certain vehicles following legal action.
The City has had occurrences of this type in the past. On each occurrence, having one
officer on duty in the City, and response times from other communities, precluded
making significant arrests and citations. Additional resources will be necessary if any
action through an additional ordinance is to have an impact.

interest, or lien is of record in the Department of Motor Vehicles of this or any other state

other than the registered owner, is the legal owner, and the ownership did not arise
subsequent to the date and time of arrest or seizure of the vehicle or notification of the
forfeiture proceedings, the City Manager or its designee shall, within ten (10) days of the

Manager or its designee shall serve a notice of intended forfeiture upon any person who
has an interest in the seized vehicle. The notice shall be served as soon as practicable,
but in any event within thirty (30) days of the seizure of the vehicle subject to forfeiture.
c. The notice of intended forfeiture shall be served as follows:

(2) In the event that the person entitled to service refuses to accept
certified return receipt mail or cannot be personally served, service
may be made by substituted service. Substituted service may be
accomplished by any one of the following methods:
(a) By leaving a copy during usual business hours at the
recipient’s business with the person who is apparently in
charge, and by thereafter mailing by first class mail a copy to
the recipient where the copy was left.
(b) By leaving a copy at the recipient’s dwelling or usual place of
abode, in the presence of a competent member of the
household and thereafter mailing by first class mail a copy to
the recipient at the address where the copy was left.
(3) If the person entitled to service lives out of state and will not
accept certified return receipt mail, then service may be made
by first class mail.
(4) If the person entitled to notice cannot be located, or service cannot
be made as set forth in this subsection, service may be made by
publication in a newspaper of general circulation. Service shall be
deemed sufficient when it is accomplished pursuant to Government
Code Section 6063.
§ 7-27.11 Claims Opposing Forfeiture.
A person claiming an interest in the vehicle seized pursuant to Section 7-27.7, must within
ten (10) days from the date of the notice of intended forfeiture or within thirty (30) calendar
days from the date of first publication of the notice of intended forfeiture, file with the
Superior Court of the county in which the vehicle was seized, a Claim Opposing
Forfeiture, verified in accordance with Section 446 of the Code of Civil Procedure, stating
his or her interest in the vehicle. An endorsed copy of the claim shall be served upon the
City Attorney within ten (10) days of the filing of the claim.
§ 7-27.12 Administrative Forfeiture.
If no claims are filed and served within 15 days of the mailing of the notice pursuant to
Section 7-27.10 or within five (5) days of personal service of the notice, the City Attorney
shall prepare a written declaration of forfeiture of the vehicle to the City. A written
declaration of forfeiture signed by the City Attorney under this Section shall be deemed
to provide good and sufficient title to the forfeited vehicle. A copy of the declaration shall
be provided on request to any person informed of the pending forfeiture pursuant to
Section 7-27.8. A claim that is filed and later withdrawn by the claimant shall be deemed
to not have been filed.
§ 7-27.13 Judicial Forfeiture Proceedings.
a. The filing of a claim within the time limit specified in Section 7-27.11 is
considered a jurisdictional prerequisite for initiating a forfeiture proceeding. A proceeding
in the civil case is a limited civil case. The burden of proof in the civil case shall be on the
City by a preponderance of the evidence. All questions that may arise shall be decided
and all other proceedings shall be conducted as in an ordinary civil action.
b. Upon proof that the vehicle was used for any of the purposes set forth in
Section 7-27.7, the court shall declare the vehicle a nuisance and order that the vehicle
be forfeited and the proceeds upon sale distributed as set forth in Section 7-27.19. The
court may make a different distribution of the proceeds, if the court finds that the claimant

conviction of a defendant for the current violation which gave rise to the nuisance and
caused these forfeiture proceedings to be initiated.
§ 7-27.14 Community Property Interest Release.
If at the time of the violation there is a community property interest in the vehicle to be
forfeited, and at the time of the violation the vehicle is the only vehicle available to the
registered owner’s immediate family that may be operated with a class C driver’s license,
the vehicle shall be released to a registered owner or to the community property interest
owner upon compliance with all of the following requirements:

for the non-forfeiture of the vehicle.
§ 7-27.15 Stipulated Vehicle Release Agreement.
a. A stipulated vehicle release agreement shall provide for the consent of the
signers to the automatic future forfeiture and transfer of title to the City of any vehicle
registered to that person, if the vehicle is used in violation of California Vehicle Code
Sections 23109(a) or (c). The agreement shall be in effect for five (5) years from the date
of signing and shall be maintained by the City Manager or its designee.
b. No vehicle shall be released pursuant to Section 7-27.14 if the City Manager
or its designee has on file a prior stipulated vehicle release agreement signed by that
person within the previous five (5) years.
§ 7-27.16 Vehicle Title Vesting in the City.
All right, title, and interest in the vehicle shall vest in the City upon commission of the act
giving rise to the nuisance under this Chapter.
§ 7-27.17 Sale of Forfeited Vehicle After Declaration of Forfeiture.
Any vehicle forfeited pursuant to this Chapter shall be sold once a declaration of forfeiture
is issued by the City Attorney or an order of forfeiture is issued by a court, as the case
may be, pursuant to Sections 7-27.12 and 7-27.13. The City shall offer the forfeited
vehicle for sale at public auction within sixty (60) days of receiving title to the vehicle. Low
value vehicles shall be disposed of pursuant to Section 2963.
§ 7-27.18 Disposition of Low-Value Vehicles.

pursuant to this Article is of so little value that it cannot readily be sold to the public
generally, the vehicle shall be conveyed to a licensed dismantler or donated to a
