BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The recommended action will extend the License with Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD) for non-exclusive access to FCD Right-of-Way from Sixth Street southerly to Wineville Avenue in Rancho Cucamonga (Property). The License allows CVWD to operate and maintain an 8” underground potable waterline within the FCD Right-of-Way. The Amendment extends the term for the period from March 1, 2026 through February 28, 2031, adjusts the rental rate schedule and updates standard license agreement language. All other License terms remain unchanged.
On August 1, 2006 (Item No. 27), the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved the License with CVWD for a 20-year term, from June 1, 2005 through May 31, 2025, with two five-year option extensions.
On November 20, 2007 (Item No. 14), the Board approved Amendment No. 1 to add language pertaining to the FCD fee ordinance regarding the annual inspection fees. All other License terms remain unchanged.
CVWD has remained in occupancy under the terms of the existing License for the period of June 1, 2025 through February 28, 2026. The License went into holdover due to negotiating the terms of the extension with CVWD. The Real Estate Services Department (RESD) continued discussions with CVWD to extend the term from March 1, 2026 through February 28, 2031. All other terms and conditions of the License remain unchanged.
The Amendment was reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and determined to be categorically exempt under Section 15301 - Class 1 Existing Facilities because the proposed Amendment secures property to operate within the existing structure with negligible or no expansion of existing use. Accordingly, no further action is required under CEQA.
