April 01, 2025 Closed Session Item 10 10. POLICE DEPARTMENT VEHICLE PURCHASE On December 28, 2024, patrol unit #3417 was involved in a traffic collision (Report #24-08526). The vehicle was inspected by the City’s insurance adjuster and deemed to be a total loss and needs to be replaced. Staff is recommending the purchase of one (1) new 2023 Dodge Charger pursuit-rated vehicle, which will be a more cost effective replacement then a 2025 Dodge Durango. Recommendation: It is recommended the City Council authorize: 1. The purchase of one (1) 2023 Dodge Charger pursuit-rated vehicle from Jake Sweeney Automotive in the City of Cincinnati, OH. in the amount of $37,744.00 assigned to patrol. This vehicle is being purchased from out of state because of its price and includes delivery. 2. Use Tax associated with out of state purchase of 2023 Dodge Charger in the amount of $2,925.16. 3. Labor costs associated with Bill's Body Works painting one (1) black 2023 Dodge Charger pursuit-rated vehicle in the amount of $2,140.25. 4. Labor costs associated with Hi-Standard installing police equipment from a previously decommissioned patrol vehicle into one (1) 2023 Dodge Charger pursuit-rated vehicle in the amount of $3,150.00. 5. The purchase of graphic designs from Digital Magic Signs for one (1) 2023 Dodge Charger pursuit-rated vehicle in the amount of $771.99. 6.

Labor costs associated with CDCE, Incorporated to install one (1) CradlePoint and one (1) antenna in the vehicle in the amount of $912.00. 8. Authorize an increase to the General Fund revenues in the amount of $14,762.03 for the receipt of the insurance reimbursement for patrol unit #3417. 9. Authorize a supplemental appropriation in the amount of $52,678.00 to be transferred from the General Fund (100) fund balance to the Equipment Replacement Fund (184) for the funding of the 2023 Dodge Charger. 10. Authorize a supplemental appropriation from the Equipment Replacement Fund (184) for the purchase and outfitting of the 2023 Dodge Charger in the amount of $52,678.00. Fiscal Impact: The purchase of this 2023 Dodge Charger was unexpected and requires a supplemental appropriation of $52,678.00 from the General Fund (100) to be transferred to the Equipment Replacement Fund (184). Hanover Insurance Group deemed the value of patrol unit #3417 at $24,762.03. The City's deductible is $10,000.00. This means the total owed to the City will be $14,762.03, which is to be deposited into the General Fund (100) to offset this unexpected cost. The purchasing and outfitting of the vehicle will be funded from the Equipment Replacement Fund (184).

April 01, 2025 Closed Session Item 11 11. CODE AMENDMENT 2024-0007: RESIDENTIAL OBJECTIVE DESIGN STANDARDS The Community and Economic Development Department has prepared Objective Design Standards for multi-family and mixed-use residential projects. Objective Design Standards are prescriptive regulations that are intended to shape the design of residential development projects. The creation and adoption of Objective Design Standards implements Program 1.2a of the Housing Element Implementation Program and aligns with recent State laws that require cities to approve certain affordable housing projects without discretionary review. Objective Design Standards also provide housing projects an opportunity for a streamlined review process. From July to October 2024, City staff and the City’s consultant, Placeworks Inc., developed draft Objective Design Standards, held stakeholder and Planning Commission workshops to discuss such standards, and worked to solicit feedback from local developers. On February 25, 2025, the Planning Commission reviewed the Final Draft Objective Design Standards and recommended City Council approval. Recommendation: That the City Council: 1. Have first reading by title only of Ordinance 1562, amending sections of Article 9 (Land Use) Chapter 2 (Zoning) of the Tustin City Code establishing Residential Objective Design Standards and set the second reading for the next available meeting. 2. Adopt City Council Resolution 25-03, approving the Objective Design Standards, to establish clear, measurable criteria for the design of qualifying residential developments. ORDINANCE NO. 1562 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING VARIOUS SECTIONS OF TUSTIN CITY CODE ARTICLE NINE (LAND USE) CHAPTER 2 (ZONING) TO ESTABLISH THE OBJECTIVE DESIGN STANDARDS FOR MULTIFAMILY AND MIXED-USE RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS (CODE AMENDMENT (CA) 2024-0007) CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 25-03 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING THE OBJECTIVE DESIGN STANDARDS MANUAL TO ESTABLISH CLEAR AND MEASURABLE CRITERIA FOR THE DESIGN OF MULTIFAMILY AND MIXED-USE RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.

April 01, 2025 Closed Session Item 12 12. FIRST AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT 2022-0002 – THE JESSUP AT 17802 – 17842 IRVINE BOULEVARD A request for the first amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002, an agreement between the City of Tustin and Tustin 40 Development LLC (Property Owner) for “The Jessup” residential project. The proposed amendment is a request to eliminate the Property Owner’s requirement to pay the Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Program In-Lieu Fee (“In-Lieu Fee”). On July 9, 2024, the City of Tustin Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed request and adopted Resolution No. 4492, recommending that the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 1544, approving the first amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002. On September 17, 2024, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the Property Owner’s requested amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002. The City Council’s motion failed due to a 2-2-1 vote (Attachment 3). The Property Owner is now requesting that the City Council reconsider the matter and adopt Ordinance 1564, approving first amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002 (Attachment 4). Recommendation: That the City Council conduct first reading of Ordinance No. 1564, by title only, for the first amendment to Development Agreement 2022- 0002, and set second reading to the next available Council meeting. ORDINANCE NO. 1564 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, APPROVING FIRST AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (DA) 2022-0002, TO ELIMINATE OWNER’S REQUIREMENT TO PAY FOR THE VOLUNTARY WORKFORCE HOUSING INCENTIVE PROGRAM IN-LIEU FEE FOR THE “THE JESSUP” RESIDENTIAL PROJECT LOCATED AT 17802 AND 17842 IRVINE BOULEVARD. Fiscal Impact: The removal of the In-Lieu Fee will reduce anticipated contributions to the City’s Housing Fund by approximately $289,560; however, the reduction is consistent with the Council’s action to temporarily waive the In-Lieu fee where it applies elsewhere, pursuant to the Municipal Code, which includes properties within the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan and Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan.
