Court strikes down IE water deal after Ontario's lawsuit reveals environmental violations, water supply risks

By Joe Taglieri joet@beaconmedianews.com

ACalifornia court has ruled in favor of Ontario in the city's legal challenge to the Inland Empire Utilities Agency claiming the Chino Basin Program violated state environmental law, officials announced Tuesday.

According to the San Bernardino Superior Court's Sept. 4 ruling, the IEUA in May 2022 violated the California Environmental Quality Act. The court found that the agency:

-- “‘piecemealed’ the evaluation of the effects of the CBP by failing to evaluate the effects of the CBP and the Feather River Exchange outside of the Chino Basin”;

-- “Used an unstable and inconsistent project description that evaluates the effects of a project life of 25 years, but then justifies the CBP based on purported water supply benefits over 50 years”; and

-- "Adopted a biased and determinative project objective to justify a refusal to evaluate reasonable alternatives to the CBP.”

The IEUA must now set aside its certification of the Chino Basin environmental impact report and the agency's other CPB approvals.

“This is a major victory for the City of Ontario and every community in the Chino Basin that depends on a secure, local water supply,” Ontario City Coun-

cilwoman Debra Porada said in a statement. “IEUA tried to push through a massive water deal that sent our water elsewhere without telling the full story of the adverse environmental and water supply effects of the CBP or evaluating reasonable alternatives to sending a reliable local water supply to Northern California. The court saw through it. We fought back because our future depends on protecting the resources our residents already paid for and rely on.”

The IEUA did not respond to a request for comment.

According to city officials, the Chino Basin Program would have transferred reliable, locally developed water paid in part by Ontario residents and the surrounding communities to the state, "leaving Ontario and neighboring communities more depen-

dent on imported water."

The IEUA described the program as "the first of its kind to deliver benefits to both Northern and Southern California "through an innovative water exchange, new recycled water supply and valuable new infrastructure and upgrades."

The CPB calls for sending groundwater via "a state contractor to facilitate a water exchange over 25 years," according to the IEUA. "During this time, the state could request pulse flows of water from Oroville Reservoir in Butte County to the Feather River, benefitting ecosystems and Chinook salmon."

The court ruling noted that the utility violated the California Environmental Quality Act when it failed to analyze the impacts of transferring 375,000 acrefeet of water to Northern

California.

The court also found that "the agency adopted biased objectives for the CBP to support IEUA’s refusal to evaluate a reasonable range of alternatives," officials said.

Attorneys for the city argued that the CEQA violation resulted in the utility's "failure to evaluate reasonable and feasible alternatives to the CBP that would retain locally generated water for use by the residents of Ontario and other communities in the Chino Basin."

Culminating with the lawsuit, the city had repeatedly raised concerns via letters, public meetings and direct outreach with the IEUA about what officials called the "the lack of transparency and analysis" surrounding the program.

Donkeys shot with arrows in Moreno Valley, suspect sought

By City News Service

At least six donkeys have been shot with arrows recently in Moreno Valley, and a local wild animal sanctuary is asking for the public's help identifying the suspect.

Workers at DonkeyLand, along with help from Moreno Valley Animal Services and the Riverside County Department of Animal Services, were able to capture an injured 2-year-old female wild donkey from a herd off Pigeon Pass Road on Thursday, the group said. She was the sixth donkey recently shot with an arrow, according to the sanctuary's Facebook post.

Thanks to help from animal activists, DonkeyLand is offering a $14,000 reward for information leading to the identification, arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for shooting the animals.

The rescued donkey was named "Cupid" by the sanctuary and was admitted to the SoCal Equine vet in Norco.

City of Palm Springs moves forward with $125M Convention Center project

By City News Service

Palm Springs officials will move forward with a $125 million project to renovate and expand the Convention Center and the surrounding area.

City officials announced last week the release of a request for qualifications for architectural and engineering services and an owner's representative. An additional urban design request for qualifications will be issued later this month.

A pre-qualification conference will be held Wednesday and Thursday to select firms for the project.

The goal of the project will be to make the Convention Center a premier destination for numerous events through modernization efforts.

"The city's objective in originally building and expanding the Convention Center was to support and enhance the tourist and convention business. Looking ahead, by 2030, Palm Springs aspires to be the desert's premier center for commerce, community, and culture," said Mayor Ron deHarte.

Nursing program at CSUSB Palm Desert campus receives $100K grant

California State University, San Bernardino's Palm Desert campus has received a $100,000 grant to expand its nursing program that provides healthcare to underserved populations in the Coachella Valley, it was announced Tuesday.

The Houston Family Foundation awarded the funding to the campus' Nursing Street Medicine Program, which officials said will allow the program to serve 700 people, make 1,200 patient contacts, launch three new clinics and train 35 nursing students each year in street-based care.

Founded in 2019, the program partners with local organizations to deliver free services such as wound care, foot soaks, health assessments, preventative care and education at

encampments, shelters and other sites across the valley.

"This funding strengthens our ability to bring essential healthcare directly to people, while empowering our nursing students to practice compassion and

community service at the heart of their education,"

Diane Vines, department of nursing instructor, said in a statement.

Edna Martinez, associate vice president and administrator in charge of the Palm Desert campus, said the program "embodies the mission of the CSUSB Palm Desert campus -- to serve the community through education, compassion and innovation."

Schwarzenegger blasts Newsom's Prop. 50 redistricting measure

By City News Service

In an appearance at USC, former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger urged voters Monday to reject Prop. 50, the ballot initiative backed by Gov. Gavin Newsom and other Democrats that would allow the party to temporarily redraw the state's congressional maps.

The proposition championed by Newsom on the November ballot would override the state Constitution and establish new congressional district maps for the 2026 election. The maps would also be in effect in 2028 and 2030.

The California redistricting effort comes in response to a similar undertaking by Texas legislators. President Donald Trump called on Republican- led states to undertake mid-decade redistricting to redraw congressional district maps in a manner that would benefit Republicans ahead of the midterm elections.

"It is insane," the former Republican governor and action-movie star said of Prop. 50, which is intended to add five Democratic U.S. House seats in California to offset Trump's moves in Texas to gain five Repub-

lican districts before the midterms.

"It doesn't make any sense to me that because we have to fight Trump, to become Trump," Schwarzenegger said. "Two wrongs don't make a right."

Representatives for the campaigns opposing and advancing the proposition did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Prop. 50 would temporarily set aside districts crafted by an independent state commission and replace them with dramatically reshaped districts drafted by Democrats and designed to benefit the party's candidates.

"I hate to get political here, but this is not political," Schwarzenegger said Monday. "This is more about democracy. If you vote yes on that, we go backwards."

The ex-governor who played a robot in the "Terminator" film series and was frequently referred to as the "Governator" while he was in office, rejected the suggestion that the measure is being advanced in response to Trump's actions.

"It has nothing to do with the federal government," he said, adding that Demo-

crats are "trying to fight for democracy by getting rid of the democratic principles of California."

Newsom announced the ballot measure last month during an event in downtown Los Angeles.

Newsom stressed that the move would only be temporary, with the state returning to the independent redistricting process after the 2030 Census. He defended the move, saying it is essential to counter what he called a clear attempt to rig the 2026 midterm congressional elections -- noting that Trump called Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and told him to come up with five more GOP seats to ensure the party maintains a majority in the House.

"He's going to lose the midterms. He knows ... his presidency ends in 17 months," Newsom said. "He knows it. Why else would he try to rig the system? Why else would you make the phone call?"

He added, "These guys are not playing by any set of rules."

Newsom also urged other Democrat-majority states to also redraw their district lines to counter the GOP effort.

HBO's medical drama

"The Pitt" pulled off a minor upset at the 77th annual Primetime Emmy Awards Sunday evening, besting "Severance" to claim the best drama series prize, while Apple TV+'s "The Studio" had a record-setting night as it won for best comedy series.

Netflix's "Adolescence," meanwhile, swept nearly all of the prizes in the limited series categories.

Apple TV+'s "Severance" went into Emmy season as the top overall nominee, collecting 27 total nominations, including its nod for outstanding drama series. It was considered a strong favorite to win the drama series prize, but "The Pitt" walked away with the honor, along with a prize for outstanding lead actor for Noah Wyle.

"What a dream this has been, oh my goodness," Wyle said as he accepted the acting honor on stage at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles. It was Wyle's first career Emmy Award. As he wrapped up his acceptance speech, he gave a shout-out to medical professionals.

"To anybody who's going on shift tonight or coming off shift tonight, thank you for being in that job. This is for you," he said.

"The Pitt" also earned a prize for outstanding supporting actress in a drama series for Katherine LaNasa.

"Severance" did earn prizes Sunday for Britt Lower, who won for outstanding lead actress in a drama series — her first win on her first nomination — and for Tramell Tillman, was was named best supporting actor in a drama series.

Dan Gilroy won his first career Emmy for drama series writing for Disney+'s "Andor." He thanked the legions of "Star Wars" fans for supporting the program.

"I want to thank the fans who did more than watch the show," he said. "They listened, they cared and they

made a story about ordinary people fighting extraordinary odds possible."

Adam Randall scored the prize for drama series directing for Apple TV+'s "Slow Horses."

On the comedy front, Seth Rogen's freshman series "The Studio" about a fictional Hollywood studio head won four awards Sunday. Combined with the nine it had already won in last weekend's Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremonies, it gave the show a total of 13 wins, the most ever for a comedy series in a single year. The previous record of 11 was set last year by FX's "The Bear."

"I'm legitimately embarrassed by how happy this makes me," Rogen said as he accepted the outstanding comedy series honor.

Rogen also won Emmys for outstanding lead actor in a comedy, along with a directing prize shared with Evan Goldberg and as part of the show's writing team.

"I've never won anything in my life," Rogen said when he picked up the acting honor. "When I was a kid I bought a used bowling trophy in an estate sale. ... This is really just so lovely, and I feel like I should — I don't know what to say, this is so nice. I appreciate you all."

Jean Smart won the prize for outstanding actress in a drama series for her work in "Hacks," repeating her win from last year. It was her seventh career Emmy, and her fourth for her role on the HBO comedy. Smart's co-star, Hannah Einbinder, was named best supporting actress in a comedy series, marking her first Emmy win on her fourth nomination.

Einbinder joked that she had been committed to the idea of continuing to lose, but said, "This is cool too. This is also punk rock." She also thanked the show's creators, who she said "changed my life in every conceivable way."

Jeff Hiller won the Emmy for supporting actor in a comedy series for "Somebody Somewhere," also on his first career nomination.

"Adolescence" dominated the limited or anthology series categories. In addition to winning the prize for outstanding limited series, "Adolescence" also earned prizes for lead actor Stephen Graham, who also won a limited series writing prize along with Jack Thorne.

"For me to be here today in front of my peers ... is the most humbling thing I can ever imagine in my life

and shows that anything is possible," Graham said.

The show's 15-year-old Owen Cooper won the award for supporting actor in a limited series.

"This is so surreal," he said as he collected the prize. "Tonight proves that if you listen and you focus and step outside your comfort zone you can achieve anything in life."

Erin Doherty was named best supporting actress in a limited series for her work on the show, and Philip Barantini was named best director for a limited series.

The only limited series honor that didn't go to "Adolescence" was for lead actress, which went to Cristin Milioti for HBO's "The Penguin."

"I loved making this show," she said. "Getting to inhabit this woman was a bright spot for me. ... Playing her felt like flying."

Peacock's "The Traitors" won its second consecutive Emmy for reality competition program.

"Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" was named outstanding scripted variety series and also won the prize for writing for a variety series.

One of the more interesting twists on Emmy night came in the outstanding

note that he first won in the category 50 years ago, in 1975.

"I was younger and I had a lot of dreams about what would happen in my life," Michaels said, joking that not one of those dreams was that "we'd be doing the same show for the next 50 years."

"This (anniversary) show was two years in the planning, and they said we don't care what it costs, as long as its good," Michael said. "Maybe the didn't say that, maybe that's just the way I heard it."

talk series category. The prize went to CBS' "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," which will be officially canceled next May.

The network called the decision purely financial, but many saw it as a capitulation to President Donald Trump — who is often the target of Colbert's jokes — to resolve a federal lawsuit and secure federal approval of the merger of CBS parent company Paramount Global with Skydance Media.

The Emmy win allowed Colbert to take the stage to accept the Emmy — during a ceremony televised on CBS. He received a standing ovation from the audience.

"Thank you for this honor," Colbert said. "I want to thank CBS for giving us the privilege to be part of the late night tradition, which I hope continues long after we're no longer doing this show."

He later added, "I have never loved my country more desperately. God bless America. Stay strong. Be brave. And if the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy and punch a higher floor."

"SNL50: The Anniversary Special" won the Emmy for outstanding live variety special, prompting show creator Lorne Michaels to

During the ceremony, husband-wife actors Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen were presented with the Television Academy's 2025 Bob Hope Humanitarian Award in recognition of their commitment to philanthropy, activism and "unwavering commitment to global good."

The award is considered one of the highest honor bestowed by the Academy's board of Governors.

Danson, best known for his roles in "Cheers" and "The Good Place," is a longtime environmental activist and co-founder of the American Oceans Campaign. He has also long supported organizations such as the ASPCA, Climate U.S. PAC, Elton John AIDS Foundation, Malaria No More and Young Storytellers.

Steenburgen, who won a supporting-actress Oscar in 1981 for "Melvin and Howard" and also appeared in films including "Philadelphia," "Parenthood" and "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," has lent her support to organizations including Artists for a Free South Africa, the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, Heifer International and No Kid Hungry.

Together, the couple co-founded the nonprofit Angels at Risk, which assists children, teens and their families at risk of drug and alcohol abuse. They are also vocal advocates for the LGBTQ community.

City of San Gabriel Summary of OrdinanceOrdinance No. 721

An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of San Gabriel, California, Amending San Gabriel Municipal Code Section 35.057 Relating to the Transient Occupancy Tax

On March 5, 2013, the City of San Gabriel held a General Municipal Election that included a ballot measure proposing to increase the City's Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) from 10% to 12%. The measure was approved by a majority of San Gabriel voters. Subsequently, on March 26, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 13-03, which formally declared and confirmed the passage of the measure to increase the TOT rate. However, San Gabriel Municipal Code Section 35.057 was never updated to reflect the approved increase in the TOT rate from 10% to 12%. The proposed ordinance corrects this discrepancy.

Ordinance No. 721 was approved for introduction and first reading at the City Council Regular Meeting of August 19, 2025, by a vote of 5-0. City Council waived the reading of Ordinance No. 721 by title on September 16, 2025, by a vote of 5-0.

Ayes: Councilmember(s)- Ding, Herrera Avila, Wu, Chan, Menchaca Noes, Abstain, Absent: Councilmember(s)- None

Medical examiner identifies teen girl found in D4vd's Tesla

By City News Service

Authoritieson

Wednesday released the name of a 15-year-old girl who went missing in Lake Elsinore last year before her decomposed body was found in the trunk of a Tesla registered to a popular singer and later impounded in the Hollywood Hills.

The county Medical Examiner's Office identified her Wednesday as Celeste Rivas. The cause of death was listed as deferred.

Her remains were discovered Sept. 8 in the Tesla, which had been towed to a city police yard. The car was registered to singersongwriter David Anthony Burke, known as D4vd, who is currently on his U.S.

"Withered" tour and scheduled to perform at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Earlier, the medical examiner revealed the girl, who had last been seen April 5, 2024, had the letters Shhh tattooed on her right index finger.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the vehicle was impounded and towed to the yard — an "official police garage" — by the city Department of Transportation because it was "parked on a public street for more than 72 hours."

The car is believed to have been parked in the Hollywood Hills. Investigators said the Tesla had been parked at the location for

nearly a month.

Neighbors told Rolling Stone the Tesla Model Y had been moved several times over the past three months before it was ultimately found on Bluebird Avenue, where it was ultimately located.

After it was impounded, workers at the tow yard and neighbors reported a strong odor coming from the car, leading to the discovery of the remains.

According to various reports, the remains were dismembered and severely decomposed, and were found inside a bag in the trunk.

The county Medical Examiner's office had earlier described the decedent as

Morongo tribe's annual powwow to feature drum, dance, bird song contests

By City News Service

Apowwow hosted by the Morongo Band of Mission Indians is expected to draw upwards of 30,000 visitors to Cabazon next week for a range of competitions and celebrations.

The tribe's 34th annual Morongo Thunder & Lightning Powwow is scheduled the weekend of Sept. 26 to Sept. 28 at the Morongo Casino Resort & Spa, 49500 Seminole Drive.

Along with thousands of spectators, the event "will welcome 900 dancers and 20 drum groups from across the U.S. and Canada," according to tribal statement.

"This free family-friendly event invites the public to experience Native American culture through traditional dance, music, food and art," the tribe stated.

Among the planned activities are bird song and traditional dance contests.

"The bird songs and dances of the Cahuilla Indians chronicle the experiences and responses of

the Cahuilla people as they migrated south," according to the event announcement.

Drum calls will be held daily, beginning with the opening ceremonies on the evening of Friday, Sept. 26.

The following day's events will run from 11 a.m. to midnight, while the closing day, Sunday, Sept. 28, will run from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

There will be a marketplace featuring Native American edibles and wares,

a woman of unknown age with wavy black hair and unknown color eyes. She was 5-feet-2 inches tall and weighed 71 pounds.

"The decedent was found severely decomposed inside a vehicle," according to a medical examiner's office statement that said she was wearing a tube top and size small black leggings, with a yellow metal stud earring and a metal chain bracelet.

"She appears to have been deceased inside the vehicle for an extended period of time before being found."

A representative for Burke said the singer was informed of the discovery and is fully cooperating with investigators.

along with peon games and a "color guard grand entry," according to the tribe.

"The grand entry is a Native American tradition that signifies the opening of each Powwow session," the tribe said. "During the grand entry, dancers and drummers can score points for competition based on regalia, performance and other categories."

More information is available at morongopowwow.com.

Ajuvenile suspect who allegedly posted social media threats targeting various schools in Desert Hot Springs was identified and located, police said.

"The Desert Hot Springs Police Department investigated numerous leads regarding the recent social media threats and located the juvenile author of these posts," police said in a statement Sunday.

The department was made aware of the threats Sept. 10, leading to heightened police and security presence at several campuses.

"We are relieved to report that based on the current and ongoing investigation, we do not feel that any of these posts are credible threats to any of our Desert Hot Springs campuses," police said the following day.

Police said Desert Hot Springs Middle School was targeted, but it was unclear which other campuses were affected.

The juvenile suspect was not identified. It was unclear if the person was arrested or remained in custody.

DA: 'Misinformation' about toddler murder case affecting proceedings

By City News Service

RiversideCounty prosecutors last week reiterated requests that concerned residents and news outlets refrain from speculative chatter about the criminal history of a man accused of killing his 7-month-old son, saying "the amount of misinformation" regarding his prior plea deal was diverting attention away from the objective of resolving the current homicide case.

"Our office's primary focus remains providing justice for baby Emmanuel," according to a District Attorney's Office statement released Sept. 11. "It is essential that we do not lose sight of who is truly responsible for the loss of life at issue in this case and focus our time and energy on ensuring justice for Emmanuel."

Jake Mitchell Haro, 32, and his wife Rebecca Rene Haro, 41, of Cabazon, are each charged with murder and filing a false police report in connection with Emmanuel's disappearance last month. They pleaded not guilty during a joint arraignment last week and are due back in court for a status conference on Tuesday.

Each defendant is being held in lieu of $1 million bail — Jake Haro at the Smith Correctional Facility in Banning, his wife at the Robert Presley Jail in Riverside.

Since the couple's arrests, ongoing social media banter and, to a lesser extent, news reports have centered on what transpired in Jake Haro's previous conviction.

In a briefing on Aug. 27, District Attorney Mike Hestrin said Emmanuel's death was preventable, blaming a failure in the criminal justice system for enabling Jake Haro to remain free on probation after pleading guilty in a child abuse case involving his ex-wife and another infant, Carolina.

In 2023, Haro admitted a child cruelty charge, but made his plea directly to the court, avoiding negotiations

with prosecutors. Hestrin said the prosecution had wanted prison for the defendant's extensive abuse of the girl, which resulted in broken ribs, a fractured skull and a brain hemorrhage, leaving her permanently bedridden.

"If that judge had done his job, Emmanuel would be alive today," he said.

The DA's office said in its statement Sept. 11, "Our office believed the charges could have been more severe based on the nature and extent of the victim's injuries.

"Prior to any plea to the court in that case, we strongly objected to the proposed sentence," the agency stated. "Our objection was made based on the seriousness of the injuries Mr. Haro inflicted on his then-10-week-old daughter. When the court chose to deviate (from the prosecution's effort to secure prison) ... it was acutely aware of the heinous and permanent nature of this young victim's injuries. We believe that granting Haro probation under these circumstances, on these facts, was an inappropriate use of (the court's) discretion."

Emmanuel's body has not been located.

His parents were arrested on Aug. 22 following a San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department investigation.

In a jailhouse interview with one news outlet, Jake Haro denied any involvement in the infant's vanishing, insisting he was cooperating with investigators.

"There was forensic data from the crime scene,"

Indio launches citywide emergency alert system

By City News Service

Indio officials Tuesday launched a citywide emergency alert system to mark National Preparedness Month and urged residents to sign up for urgent public safety notifications.

San Bernardino County Sheriff Shannon Dicus said last month. "That's how we learned the jurisdiction where this crime occurred (Riverside County). Forensically, there were a number of things we were able to prove up."

He did not disclose specifics.

Emmanuel was reported missing in the 34000 block of Yucaipa Boulevard in Yucaipa on the evening of Aug. 14.

Rebecca Haro told deputies she'd been assaulted while standing near her vehicle, changing Emmanuel's diaper outside a Big 5 store. The defendant suggested she was knocked out, and that the assailant fled with the tot.

On Aug. 18, San Bernardino County sheriff's detectives served search warrants at the defendants' Ramona Street property, and "a large amount of surveillance video" was obtained from areas of interest for review, according to the agency.

Jake Haro was arrested and charged last year in Banning with illegal possession of a loaded firearm, as well as probation violations. That case hasn't been resolved.

Court documents also revealed that Isabel Rebecca Gonzalez, Haro's former spouse, filed a domestic violence restraining order against him with a request to protect the couple's son Eli.

Rebecca Haro has no documented prior felony convictions in Riverside County.

"Prepared communities are safer communities," Mayor Glenn Miller said in a statement. "National Preparedness month is the perfect time to take one easy step that makes a big difference, so we strongly encourage our entire community to sign up for alerts to ensure access to critical information right when you need it."

The free alerts will cover severe weather, road closures, evacuations and other emergencies. Residents, businesses and visitors can choose to receive notifications by text, phone call or email, in either

English or Spanish.

"Enrolling in the city of Indio's Emergency Alerts helps you quickly, check on loved ones and follow

official guidance during fast changing situations," city officials said.

Sign-ups are available at www.indio.org/alert.

Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission

Zoning

Code Amendment to

Implement Objective Design Standards for High Density Residential Development

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Planning and Community Development Department is bringing forward a Zoning Code Amendment to amend Title 17 (the Zoning Code) of the Pasadena Municipal Code to implement objective design standards, related to items such as building bulk and mass, setbacks, articulation, and materials, applicable to residential and mixed-use projects, with a density greater than 48 dwelling units per acre.

PROJECT LOCATION: Citywide

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The Planning Commission will consider whether the proposed Zoning Code Amendment is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption), that CEQA only applies to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposed Amendment would implement new objective design standards related to building bulk and mass, setbacks, articulation, and materials, applicable to residential and mixed-use projects with a density greater than 48 dwelling units per acre. The Amendment would not increase development levels or intensity or add new uses that would generate impacts. Since it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed objective design standards will have a significant effect on the environment and there are no features that distinguish this project from others in the exempt class, the Zoning Code Amendments are not subject to CEQA.

APPROVALS NEEDED: The Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing and consider recommendations on the proposed Zoning Code Amendment and environmental determination. The Planning Commission recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council. The City Council will make a final decision at a separately noticed public hearing.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing and consider the proposed Zoning Code Amendment and proposed environmental determination. The hearing is scheduled for:

Date: Wednesday, October 8, 2025

Time: 6:30 p.m.

ORDINANCE NO. 7455

AN INTERIM URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PASADENA PROHIBITING URBAN LOT SPLITS AND CONSTRUCTION OF MULTIPLE DWELLINGS PURSUANT TO SENATE BILL 9 IN VERY HIGH FIRE HAZARD SEVERITY ZONES WITHIN THE BOUNDARY OF THE EATON FIRE

WHEREAS, windstorms of extraordinary magnitude and widespread fires began on January 7, 2025, which included dangerous gusts of wind of over 80 miles per hour and wind-driven and destructive wildfires including the Eaton Fire and the Palisades Fire; and

WHEREAS, these conditions caused extensive damage to residential and nonresidential structures, businesses and critical infrastructure in the City of Pasadena (“City”) and the Eaton Fire specifically destroyed 185 structures in the City, a majority of which were zoned single-family residential, displacing Pasadena residents; and

WHEREAS, the combined fires in the County of Los Angeles (“County”) collectively burned over 47,900 acres, destroyed or damaged more than 16,250 structures, including homes, small businesses, and places of worship, with initial estimates placing this disaster among the most destructive in California history; and

WHEREAS, on January 8, 2025, the Director of Disaster Emergency Services of the City proclaimed the existence of a local emergency; and

WHEREAS, on January 13, 2025, the City Council ratified that January 8, 2025 Declaration of Local Emergency – Windstorms and Fires, which shall be deemed to continue to exist until its termination is proclaimed by the City Council; and

WHEREAS, on July 30, 2025, the Governor issued Executive Order N-32-25, which acknowledged that Senate Bill (“SB”) 9 was not tailored for circumstances like the present situation where more than 13,000 homes were destroyed including more than 5,000 single-family homes in the Palisades Fire that fall into a designated very high fire hazard severity zone; and

WHEREAS, Executive Order N-32-25 recognizes that widespread SB 9 development concentrated in neighborhoods rebuilding from destructive fires in very high fire hazard severity zones has the potential to crowd evacuation routes, and finds the unprecedent scale of the disaster calls for affording local governments increased discretion to ensure that SB 9 development in the rebuilding areas appropriately account for fire safety concerns, and suspends Government Code sections 65852.21 and 66411.7 in very high fire hazard severity zones within the boundaries of the Palisades and Eaton Fires to the extent they limit discretion in approval of applications for development of two units on a singlefamily parcel or lot split; and

WHEREAS, City residents are in the process of preparing for rebuild and rebuilding, and the City Council finds there is a need to address the current and immediate threat of overcrowding evacuation routes in very high fire hazard severity zones that are within the boundary of the destructive Eaton Fire to preserve public safety during emergencies; and

WHEREAS, under Government Code Section 8634, during a local emergency, the City Council may promulgate orders and regulations necessary to provide for the protection of life and property; and

WHEREAS, under Government Code Section 65858, the City Council may adopt by a four-fifths vote an interim zoning ordinance to protect the public safety, health, and welfare; and

WHEREAS, the City provided notice pursuant to Government Code Section 65090 and held a public hearing on September 8, 2025, regarding this proposed rebuild ordinance; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that there is a local emergency that requires the City Council to promulgate this ordinance to protect life and property, and there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare and that the approvals of certain entitlements required to comply with the Zoning Code would result in a threat to the public health, safety or welfare by failing to appropriately account for fire safety concerns in the very high fire hazard severity zones in the boundaries of the Eaton Fire; NOW THEREFORE, the People of the City of Pasadena ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. This ordinance, due to its length and corresponding cost of publication, will be published by title and summary as permitted in Section 508 of the Pasadena City Charter. The approved summary of this ordinance is as follows:

“Summary

This proposed ordinance amends various sections of Pasadena Municipal Code Title 16 (Subdivision Ordinance), Chapter 16.08, Section 16.08.240, and Title 17 (Zoning Code), Chapter 17.22, Section 17.22.050 to prohibit Senate Bill 9 applications within very high fire severity zones within the boundary of the Eaton Fire in the City of Pasadena.

Ordinance No. 7455 shall take effect upon publication.”

SECTION 2. Pasadena Municipal Code, Title 16 (Subdivision Ordinance), Chapter 16.08 (Definitions), Section 16.08.240, is amended to read as follows:

“16.08.240 – Urban Lot Split

A. Front-yard setback measurement. The minimum front yard setback in the RS and RM-12 zoning districts shall be as follows. See also 17.40.160 (Setback and Encroachment Plane Requirements and Exceptions).

1. Where 40 percent or more of the lots on a blockface in the same zoning district (excluding corner yards of reversed corner lots) are developed with primary structures (including the existing setback of the proposed development site), the minimum front setback shall be the average of the front setbacks of the developed lots, but not less than 25 feet. In calculating the blockface average, measurement shall be from the front property line to the primary structure. Building projections and unenclosed porches shall not be used as the reference point for this measurement.

2. Where less than 40 percent of the lots on a blockface within the same zoning district (excluding corner yards or reversed corner lots) are developed with primary structures (including the existing setback of the proposed development site), the minimum front setback shall be 25 feet.

3. For blockfaces with two or fewer lots between two reversed corner lots, the minimum front setback shall be the larger required corner yard of the reversed corner lots. See Section 17.40.160 for allowed projections into front-yard setbacks.

B. Garage and carport requirements for all districts.

If the garage is required to be located to the rear of the primary structure and is attached, the garage shall be located so that the garage door is not visible from the street and the garage shall be the closest portion of the structure to the rear property line. This requirement shall not apply within the HD (Hillside Development) overlay zone. See 17.50.250.H for additional requirements for attached garages. A garage on a corner lot in which the garage doors face the street shall be set back a minimum of 18 feet from a street property line.

2. Carports. Carports shall be completely screened from view from the street and shall be located between the primary structure and the rear property line, so as to not be within the view down the driveway from the street. A carport shall not be permitted on a corner lot.

3. Exception to maximum floor area requirement. The maximum floor area requirement in Section 17.22.040, Table 2-3, may be exceeded to accommodate the reconstruction of a garage that previously existed on the site, but only to the extent of the floor area necessary or a two-car garage in compliance with the parking space dimension requirements of Section 17.46.110 (Parking Space Dimensions).

C. Restoration of a porte cochere. A porte cochere may be rebuilt or restored if evidence is provided to the City that the residence originally had a porte cochere. The porte cochere shall meet all building requirements. The Director shall review such requests.

D. Flagpoles. A flagpole can be constructed if it meets the following requirements.

1. The flagpole shall be located outside a required setback area. Flagpoles are allowed in front of a residence if located outside the required front setback.

2. The maximum height of the flagpole shall be the maximum height allowed for the principal structure.

3. The flagpole shall not be located in an encroachment plane.

E. Neighborhood Compatibility. For the purposes of neighborhood compatibility, the “neighborhood” is determined by the median square footage of all houses on properties within a 500-foot radius around the subject property. The “neighborhood” is not required to include:

• Properties located outside of the City of Pasadena;

• Properties not located in an RS district, or in a different RS district; and

• Properties separated by a significant manmade structure (e.g. freeway) or a significant natural feature (e.g. canyon) that, to the extent determinable by staff, is not the result of grading or other man-made alteration of the natural terrain.

F. Design Standards. The following design standards are applicable to all single-family zoned properties, excluding properties in historic districts, LD (Landmark District), HD (Hillside Overlay District), HD-1 (Upper Hastings Ranch Area), and ND (Neighborhood Overlay) overlay zones:

Construction of Two-Unit Developments in single-family residential zones pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.21 is also prohibited in very high fire hazard severity zones identified pursuant to Government Code section 51178 within the boundary of the 2025 Eaton Fire. A map of this area shall be maintained on file with the Department.

Proposed adjacent or connected primary residences (Two-Unit Developments) shall be permitted if they meet building code standards, are designed sufficient to allow separate conveyance, and comply with the development standards of the underlying zoning district or additional standards prescribed by this section, as applicable.

Riverside County enhances 911 emergency medical services with nurse navigation program

By Staff

RiversideCounty’s Emergency ManagementDepartment

launched the 911 Nurse Navigation, an initiative developed in partnership with emergency medical services providers American Medical Response and Global Medical Response.

The new initiative gives 911 dispatchers with an additional resource to manage callers determined to be experiencing nonlife-threatening conditions.

Through the efforts of EMD’s Riverside EMS Agency, 911 Nurse Navigation is being offered to all fire departments in the county who are accredited by the International Academy of Emergency Dispatch.

“As the county’s EMS Agency, we continually strive towards improving access to care and ensuring a robust EMS system,” EMD Deputy Director Dan Bates said in a statement. “Launching the

911 Nurse Navigation service ensures our residents receive the most appropriate level of service, while helping offset some of the emergency response call volume that may not be life-threatening.”

Nurse navigation aims to bridge the gap 911 Nurse Navigation gives emergency dispatchers the ability to connect eligible 911 callers with trained nurse navigators, who follow physician protocols to ensure callers receive direction to the most appropriate level of medical care.

The 911 Nurse Navigation screening system ushers callers “to the right care, at the right time, in the right setting — enhancing outcomes while optimizing costs,” officials said. The program is available to Riverside County call centers that currently use emergency medical dispatch. Training is provided to ensure staff understands the calls

"The court’s ruling validates those concerns and underscores that IEUA committed multiple prejudicial CEQA violations."

Ontario officials said they would continue to advocate for transparent and responsible regional water planning that prioritizes the needs of the communities who live here.

“We remain committed to work in partnership with IEUA and surrounding agencies to develop regional water resource programs that meet our collective objectives,” Porada said.

The IEUA serves 935,000 residents over 242 square miles and is situated on the Chino Basin, the largest groundwater storage basin in Southern California, according to the utility.

In 2018, the Chino Basin Program received a $215 million conditional funding grant from the state's Proposition 1 Water Supply Investment Program.

Officials highlighted these “key solutions and benefits”:

The arrow was lodged within her thoracic region, according to DonkeyLand. Cupid required sedation to safely remove the arrow body, but the tip of the arrow was scheduled to be removed Monday during a second surgery.

According to DonkeyLand, the arrow passed through a small portion of Cupid's right lung and is very close to puncturing her left lung. Officials said it's very painful for Cupid as the arrow is scraping against the underside of her shoulder blade every time she moves.

A chip of bone dislodged from the arrow is also endangering her left lung, according to DonkeyLand, but Cupid is receiving powerful antibiotics to help with infection and pain medication to keep her comfortable and calm.

DonkeyLand is accepting donations toward Cupid's medical expenses, which can be made by visiting donkeyland.org/. Those

- “Enhanced Service Experience: Callers receive immediate response, reducing anxiety and empowering them to make informed decisions about their health.

- “24/7 Access to Navigators: Nurse Navigators are available round-the-clock, ensuring callers and emergency medical dispatchers have access to this program any time of the day or night.”

Similar 911 nurse programs are now in over 30 communities across 14 states, serving more than 200,000 callers, officials reported. In 2024, the program saved an estimated $21 million by preventing unnecessary ambulance transports, avoidable emergency department visits, and other costly interventions.

- “Lower Healthcare Costs: The program is expected to save both 911 callers and the healthcare system significant costs by navigating less serious calls, that don’t need an urgent emergency medical services response, to more appropriate, cost-effective care options.
