C. ORDINANCES NO. 728 AND NO. 729: AMENDMENT TO UPDATE THE SAN GABRIEL MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO NEW STATE LAW FOR URBAN DWELLING UNITS (ZTA25-001), ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS AND JUNIOR ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS (ZTA26-001) – SECOND READING AND ADOPTION Ordinances No. 728 and No. 729 were introduced and scheduled for second reading and adoption by a 5-0 vote of the City Council at the June 16, 2026, City Council meeting. If adopted, these Ordinances will update the existing code relating to new State Law for urban dwelling units, accessory dwelling units, and junior accessory dwelling units. The Ordinances would then become effective 30 days after adoption. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: The proposed amendments were reviewed for compliance with the CEQA. Pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, the amendment to a Zoning Ordinance is not considered a project as defined in Section 15378 and can be seen with certainty that it will not have a significant effect on the environment. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance qualifies for this CEQA exemption as there is no possibility that the Ordinances will have a significant effect on the environment as it amends the City’s Municipal Code to demonstrate compliance with State ADU law. Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council waive full reading and adopt Ordinances No. 728 and No. 729 entitled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of Amending Chapter 153 (Zoning Code) of the San Gabriel Municipal Code Relating to Housing Development in the Residential Zones,” and “An Ordinance Case No. ZTA26-001, Amending Chapter 153 (Zoning Code) of the San Gabriel Municipal Code Relating to Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units,” respectively.

G. AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT TO BALFOUR BEATTY INFRASTRUCTURE, INCORPORATED FOR SAN GABRIEL RAILROAD TRENCH MAINTENANCE SERVICES IN THE AMOUNT OF $108,000, WHICH INCLUDES A 20% CONTINGENCY [RESOLUTION NO. 26-35] As part of the 2011 agreement for the construction, operation and maintenance of the 2.25 mile San Gabriel Trench Grade-Separation Project between the Union Pacific Railroad Company, Alameda Corridor-East Construction Authority the City is responsible for all maintenance, repair, replacement and improvements to the rail corridor support structures and overhead grade- separated structures. This includes the bridges at Ramona Street, Mission Road, Del Mar Avenue, and San Gabriel Boulevard, as well as abetment of vegetation, trash and graffiti. Due to the specialized nature and knowledge involved with these activities, including the permitting, flagging, and railroad coordination involved, the City has historically contracted these services using Proposition C funds. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: The proposed action is exempt from the CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities). The Agreement provides for routine trench maintenance activities, including inspections, repairs, and upkeep of existing structures and facilities, with no expansion of use or physical alteration of the trench beyond its existing condition. Therefore, the project qualifies for a Class 1 categorical exemption, and no further environmental review is required. Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Approve the award of a two-year Professional Services Agreement with Balfour Beatty Infrastructure, Incorporated, with the option to extend the Agreement for up to three additional one-year periods, with all future fiscal years subject to an annual Consumer Price Index adjustment; and 2.

I. ALL CITY MANAGEMENT SERVICES CONTRACT RENEWAL FOR CROSSING GUARD SERVICES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 IN THE AMOUNT OF $200,160 The City initially entered into a contract with All City Management Services (ACMS) to provide crossing guard services in July of 2014. The 2017 contract renewal was valid for one year, with two optional one-year extensions. The City activated each additional option with the final option expiring on June 30, 2020. Upon expiration, the City and ACMS entered an additional three-year contract with the final two years' costs locked at $130,664. Since then, ACMS has only been agreeable to one-year contracts due to increases in labor costs, which prevent locking the cost of services for more than one year. Last fiscal year, the City entered a one-year contract with ACMS to provide crossing guard services for an annual cost not to exceed $193,018. The most recent contract expired on June 30, 2026. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: Not a Project as defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to enter into a one-year Professional Services Agreement with All City Management Services for crossing guard services for an amount not to exceed $200,160 and then reevaluate their services and other opportunities for services in Fiscal Year 2027-2028.
