AND 6193-003-905 (HEREIN REFERRED TO AS “SITE”).”
Background:
Zoning Change No. 2019-01 and General Plan Amendment No. 2019-01 are City initiated amendments to
change the land use designation and zone for a site located adjacent to the Atlantic Crossing shopping center at
Atlantic Avenue and Imperial Highway from P-1 (Parking) zone to R-3 (Multi-Family Residential) zone. The subject
site was originally owned by the Lynwood Redevelopment Agency (Agency). It was transferred to the City prior to
the dissolution of redevelopment. It is part of the Agency’s Long-Range Property Management Plan
(Management Plan) that was approved by the Agency’s Successor Agency.
The site is comprised of four (4) parcels of vacant land containing an area of 0.46 acres or 19,920 square feet and
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 5 of 113
is identified by Assessor Parcel Numbers 6193-003-902, 6193-003-903, 6193-003-904, and 6193-003-905. The
land is unique as it is a rectangular shaped landlocked site with no frontage upon any public roadways. It has a
reciprocal easement that grants access to the site through the Atlantic Crossing shopping center. Based on
surrounding uses, the site could potentially be zoned C-2 (Light Commercial), C-3 (Heavy Commercial), R-1
(Single-Family Residential), or R-3 (Multi-Family Residential). However, after careful analysis of the site, it is
being recommended that the site be rezoned from P-1 (Parking) to R-3 (Multi-Family Residential), which would
create the opportunity for a small housing development on the site.
On November 12, 2019, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing and, at the conclusion, voted
to recommend approval of Zoning Change No. 2019-01 and General Plan Amendment No. 2019-01 to the City
Council.
Discussion and Analysis:
The proposed site is bordered to the north by Pendleton Avenue and single/multi-family residences; to the south by
Imperial Highway and multi-family residential; to the east by Atlantic Avenue and commercial uses; and, to the west
by Elm Avenue and single-family residential developments. The site does not have direct access from a public
right-of-way with ingress and egress through the adjacent commercial shopping center parking located to the east
of the subject site.
The subject site is surplus land that that was acquired by the City from the Redevelopment Agency utilizing
redevelopment funding. When the Redevelopment Agency was officially dissolved on February 1, 2012, the City
was left with a surplus supply of acquired properties and insufficient funds to maintain the land resulting in
unexpected land maintenance costs. The City also has had to contend with the liabilities associated with holding
undeveloped land.
With the high cost and short supply of housing, the subject property is a prime opportunity for the development of
housing that contributes to the needs of the community and advances the City’s General Plan’s goals and
objectives, as well as regional and state housing goals and objectives. The property’s present P-1 (Parking) zone
does not extend a reasonable value and ability to develop a useful or tangible project leaving it significantly
underutilized. Therefore, changing the subject site to the proposed Residential General Land Use Designation
and R-3 (Multi-Family) zone would allow for the development of housing at the subject location, which is presently
the highest and best use of the subject land.
General Plan Amendment:
The Lynwood General Plan is considered the constitution for all future development in the City. It is meant to express the
community’s goals and sets forth policies and implementation measures for the general welfare of the community. The
Land Use Element, which is one of the eight (8) adopted elements (Land Use; Circulation; Noise; Open Space and
Conservation; Safety; Housing; Economic Development, and Community Design), provides land use designations that
dictates the pattern of development within the City. State law requires that any local decision affecting land uses and
development must conform to a City’s General Plan. As a result, a General Plan consistency finding necessary and
included in resolutions for any discretionary approval considered before the Planning Commission and City Council.
Staff supports the proposed General Plan Amendment (GPA) and Zone Change (ZC). The GPA and ZC would
enable future beneficial development for community use in what is now, and has been for some time, an
undeveloped site. In addition, the proposed GPA and ZC are not precedent setting in that the site vicinity contains
a mix of residential (single-family and multi-family) and commercial uses.
To approve the requested GPA, the decision-making body(ies) must be able to make the following Findings, as
indicated in the City Zoning Code. Staff has provided brief statements, according to each Finding, in support of
the proposed GPA.
General Plan Amendment Required Findings
A. That the proposed amendment is in the public interest and that there will be a community benefit resulting
from the amendment
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 6 of 113
The approval of the proposed GPA will enable the establishment of a beneficial community use from a presently
vacant and underutilized and blighted property to a residential use, the highest and best use of the subject site. In
addition, the proposed GPA is entirely appropriate as the proposed entitlement request will allow for the
development of in-scale and compatible residential uses immediately adjacent to a single-family and multi-family
neighborhoods as well as complimentary commercial uses. Primary access from Imperial Highway and Atlantic
Avenue for this historically underutilized site will further add a community benefit in the public’s best interests.
B. That the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, policies, and objectives of the General Plan
The establishment of residential uses is in keeping with the goals, policies, and objectives of the Lynwood General
Plan. More specifically, the Land Use, Noise, Housing and Economic Development Plan Elements:
Housing Element Policy 2.1 – “Identify and monitor suitable sites to accommodate the City's 201 4-2021
RHNA allocation and encourage the construction of new affordable housing by advertising vacant and
underdeveloped parcels to developers.” The proposed zoning change creates housing opportunity and
encourages the development of housing within the City consisting with the Housing Element.
Housing Element Policy 2.3 – “Facilitate and encourage the development of affordable housing for seniors,
large families, and other identified special housing needs.” The proposed zoning change creates housing
opportunity and encourages the development of housing within the City consisting with the Housing
Element.
Land Use Element Policy 4.1.3 – “Ensure that residential neighborhoods are protected from the
encroachment of incompatible activities or land uses which may have a negative impact on the residential
environment.” Changing the General Plan Designation as proposed will result in a compatible activity and
land use immediately adjacent to single-family and multi-family residential uses.
Land Use Policy LU-1.5 Residential High Density (R-3) – “The Residential High designation allows multi-
family developments of apartments, condominiums, and single-family attached units. At 4.7 persons per
household, the maximum population density is 85 persons acre.” Completing the proposed GPA complies
with this Land Use Policy by adding and creating a mix of housing specifically targeting these high-density
residential housing types and contributes to the shortage of housing in the City.
Noise Element – “California Office of Noise Control Land Use Compatibility Matrix for Community Noise
Exposure establishing ‘Normally Acceptable’, ‘Conditionally Acceptable’ and ‘Normally Unacceptable’.”
The proposed project will achieve a dB level of less than 70 determined a “Normally Acceptable” noise
level, which will not be a nuisance to the surrounding single-family and multi-family residential
neighborhoods.
The proposed development will act as an ideal buffer between sensitive receptors and noise-generating
commercial uses. “Goal NOI-1 will protect those living, working, and visiting the community from exposure
to excessive noise.” Policy NOI-1-1 Sensitive Receptors – “Prohibit the development of new commercial,
industrial, or other noise-generating land uses adjacent to existing residential uses and sensitive noise
receptors such as schools, health care facilities, libraries, and churches if noise levels are to exceed 65
dBA CNEL (decibels on A-weighted scale Community Noise Equivalent Level).”
Policy Economic Balance – “The City shall regularly evaluate the City’s population characteristics, housing
stock, character, and changing employment trends to better compete with neighboring communities.” The
potential development of new housing inventory will better position the City in these category trends.
C. That the proposed amendment will not conflict with provisions of this zoning code, subdivision regulations, or
any applicable specific plan
The proposed GPA will not conflict with the provisions of the zoning code because any subsequent development
will be required to comply with all of the development standards of the underlying zone. If a subdivision action is
proposed, subdivision regulations will not be impacted as it must comply with the standards of Subdivision Map
Act. Finally, the subject site is not within or near any City specific plan overlay area.
D. In the event that the proposed amendment is a change to the land use policy map that the amendment will
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 7 of 113
not adversely affect surrounding properties
The proposed GPA will not adversely affect surrounding properties and does not have a negative impact on the
City’s land use policies.
The proposed GPA and ZC actually compliment good zoning practices and creates a compatible use that creates
a buffer between commercial uses and single-family to multi-family residential uses and would eliminate a
underutilized, landlocked parcel and rezone the site in a manner consistent with the contiguous parcels.
Zone Change:
A. That the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, policies, and objectives of the general plan
As indicated above in paragraph B of the GPA findings, which are incorporated herein and made a part of these
findings. The proposed ZC is consistent with the City General Plan goal of establishing a balance of land uses
that function to provide benefit for the Lynwood community. In addition, the establishment of a multi-family zone will
improve the present undeveloped property without conflicting with the overall character of land uses in the vicinity of
the proposed site. The proposed ZC would enhance the adjacent Single Family and expand the Multi-Family
Residential zones in the area.
B. That a proposed zone change will not adversely affect surrounding properties
As described above in the GPA findings, which are restated and incorporated herein and made a part of these
findings, the subject ZC will not adversely affect surrounding properties because the surrounding sites are
consistent with the resulting R-3 (Multi-Family) zone and uses permitted at this location after the proposed
entitlement changes.
Environmental Review
The proposed actions are not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the State
CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, sections: 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not
result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is
not a project as defined in Section 15378); and 15061(b)(3), because the activity is covered by the general rule
that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

Section 1. Pursuant to LMC Section 25-115-4, pertaining to the findings required to
approve a zone change or zoning code amendment, the City Council hereby finds and
determines as follows:
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 9 of 113
2
A. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein and made
a part of these findings.
B. The proposed zone change from P-1 (Automobile Parking) to R -3 (Multi-
Family Residential) zoning designation of the Project Site is consistent with
goals, policies, and objectives of the Lynwood General Plan. More
specifically, the Land Use, Noise, Safety, Housing and Economic
Development Plan Elements:
Housing Plan Policy 2.1 – “Identify and monitor suitable sites to
accommodate the City's 201 4-2021 RHNA allocation and encourage
the construction of new affordable housing by advertising vacant and
underdeveloped parcels to developers.” The proposed zoning
change creates housing opportunity and encourages the
development of housing within the City consistent with the Housing
Element.
Housing Plan Policy 2.3 – “Facilitate and encourage the
development of affordable housing for seniors, large families, and
other identified special housing needs.” The proposed zoning
change creates housing opportunity and encourages the
development of housing within the City consistent with the Housing
Element.
Land Use Element Policy 4.1.3 – “Ensure that residential
neighborhoods are protected from the encroachment of incompatible
activities or land uses which may have a negative impact on the
residential environment.” Changing the General Plan Designation as
proposed will result in a compatible activity and land use immediately
adjacent to single-family and multi-family residential uses.
Land Use Policy LU-1.5 Residential High Density (R-3) – “The
Residential High designation allows multi-family developments of
apartments, condominiums, and single-family attached units. At 4.7
persons per household, the maximum population density is 85
persons acre.” Completing the proposed GENERAL PLAN
AMENDMENT complies with this Land Use Policy by adding and
creating a mix of housing specifically targeting these high-density
residential housing types and contribute to the shortage of housing
in the City.
Noise Element – “California Office of Noise Control Land Use
Compatibility Matrix for Community Noise Exposure establishing
‘Normally Acceptable’, ‘Conditionally Acceptable’ and ‘Normally
Unacceptable’.” The proposed project will achieve a dB level of less
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 10 of 113
3
than 70 and determined a “Normally Acceptable” noise level, which
will not be a nuisance to the surrounding single-family and multi-
family residential neighborhoods.
The proposed development will act as an ideal buffer between
sensitive receptors and noise-generating commercial uses. “Goal
NOI-1 will protect those living, working, and visiting the community
from exposure to excessive noise.” Policy NOI-1-1 Sensitive
Receptors – “Prohibit the development of new commercial, industrial,
or other noise-generating land uses adjacent to existing residential
uses and sensitive noise receptors such as schools, health care
facilities, libraries, and churches if noise levels are to exceed 65 dBA
CNEL (decibels on A-weighted scale Community Noise Equivalent
Level).”
Policy Economic Balance – “The City shall regularly evaluate the
City’s population characteristics, housing stock, character, and
changing employment trends to better compete with neighboring
communities.” The potential development of new housing inventory
will better position the City in these category trends.
In addition, the establishment of a multi-family zone will improve the present
undeveloped property without conflicting with the overall character of land
uses in the vicinity of the proposed site. The proposed Zone Change would
enhance the adjacent Single-Family and expand the Multi-Family
Residential zones in the area.
C. The R-3 (Multi-Family) zoning designation will not will not adversely affect
surrounding properties and does not have a negative impact on the City’s
land use policies.
Section 2. The proposed Zoning Code amendment compliments good zoning practices
and creates a compatible use that creates a buffer between commercial uses and single-
family to multi-family residential uses.
Section 3. Consistent with the Planning Commission’s recommendation, the City Council
hereby approves Zone Change No. 2019-01 changing the zoning designation of the
Project Site from P-1 (Automobile Parking) to R-3 (Multi-Family Residential).
Section 4. This Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) pursuant to the State CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14,
Chapter 3, sections: 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably
foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not
a project as defined in Section 15378); and 15061(b)(3), because the activity is covered
by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing
a significant effect on the environment. Because there is no possibility that this Ordinance
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 11 of 113
4
may have a significant adverse effect on the environment, the adoption of this Ordinance
is exempt from CEQA.

any reason held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not
affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council of the City

WHEREAS, the City of Lynwood 2014-2021 Housing Plan has determined that 20
percent of all Lynwood households were classified as overcrowded to severely
overcrowded constituting an approximately 40 percent higher percentage than Los
Angeles County population as whole for the same category; and
WHEREAS, the City of Lynwood 2014-2021 Housing Element recognizes that
housing overcrowding “can lead to neighborhood deterioration due to the intensive use
of individual housing units leading to excessive wear and tear, and the potential
cumulative overburdening of community infrastructure and service capacity.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Pursuant to LMC Section 25.110-3, pertaining to the findings required to
approve a General Plan Amendment, the City Council hereby finds and determines as
follows:
A. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein and made a part
of these findings.
B. The approval of the proposed GPA will enable the establishment of a beneficial
community use from a presently vacant and underutilized property to a residential
use, the highest and best use of the subject site. In addition, the proposed GPA
is entirely appropriate as the proposed entitlement request will allow for the
development of in-scale and compatible residential uses immediately adjacent to
a single-family and multi-family neighborhoods as well as complimentary
commercial uses. Primary access from Imperial Highway and Atlantic Avenue for
this historically underutilized site will further add a community benefit in the public’s
best interests.
C. The establishment of residential uses are in keeping with the goals, policies, and
objectives of the Lynwood General Plan. More specifically, the Land Use, Noise,
Housing and Economic Development Plan Elements:
Housing Element Policy 2.1 – “Identify and monitor suitable sites to accommodate
the City's 201 4-2021 RHNA allocation and encourage the construction of new
affordable housing by advertising vacant and underdeveloped parcels to
developers.” The proposed zoning change creates housing opportunity and
encourages the development of housing within the City consisting with the Housing
Element.
Housing Element Policy 2.3 – “Facilitate and encourage the development of
affordable housing for seniors, large families, and other identified special housing
needs.” The proposed zoning change creates housing opportunity and
encourages the development of housing within the City consisting with the Housing
Element.
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 15 of 113
3
Land Use Element Policy 4.1.3 – “Ensure that residential neighborhoods are
protected from the encroachment of incompatible activities or land uses which may
have a negative impact on the residential environment.” Changing the General
Plan Designation as proposed will result in a compatible activity and land use
immediately adjacent to single-family and multi-family residential uses.
Land Use Policy LU-1.5 Residential High Density (R-3) – “The Residential High
designation allows multi-family developments of apartments, condominiums, and
single-family attached units. At 4.7 persons per household, the maximum
population density is 85 persons acre.” Completing the proposed GPA complies
with this Land Use Policy by adding and creating a mix of housing specifically
targeting these high density residential housing types and contribute to the
shortage of housing in the City.
Noise Element – “California Office of Noise Control Land Use Compatibility Matrix
for Community Noise Exposure establishing ‘Normally Acceptable’, ‘Conditionally
Acceptable’ and ‘Normally Unacceptable’.” The proposed project will achieve a dB
level of less than 70 and determined a “Normally Acceptable” noise level which will
not be a nuisance to the surrounding single-family and multi-family residential
neighborhoods.
The proposed development will act as an ideal buffer between sensitive receptors
and noise-generating commercial uses. “Goal NOI-1 will protect those living,
working, and visiting the community from exposure to excessive noise.” Policy
NOI-1-1 Sensitive Receptors – “Prohibit the development of new commercial,
industrial, or other noise-generating land uses adjacent to existing residential uses
and sensitive noise receptors such as schools, health care facilities, libraries, and
churches if noise levels are to exceed 65 dBA CNEL (decibels on A-weighted scale
Community Noise Equivalent Level).”
Policy Economic Balance – “The City shall regularly evaluate the City’s population
characteristics, housing stock, character, and changing employment trends to
better compete with neighboring communities.” The potential development of new
housing inventory will better position the City in these category trends.
D. The proposed GPA will not conflict with the provisions of the zoning code because
any subsequent development will be required to comply with all of the development
standards of the underlying zone. If a subdivision action is proposed, subdivision
regulations will not be impacted as it must comply with the standards of Subdivision
Map Act. Finally, the subject site is not within or near any city specific plan overlay
area.
E. The proposed GPA will not adversely affect surrounding properties and does not
have a negative impact on the City’s land use policies.

The proposed GPA and ZC actually compliment good zoning practices and creates
a compatible use that creates a buffer between commercial uses and single-family
to multi-family residential uses.
Section 2. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Zoning Code actually
compliments good zoning practices and creates a compatible use that creates a buffer
between commercial uses and single-family to multi-family residential uses.
Section 3. Consistent with the Planning Commission’s recommendation, the City Council
hereby approves General Plan Amendment No. 2019-01 changing the designation of the
Project Site from Automobile Parking (P-1) to Multi-Family Residential (R-3). This
General Plan Amendment No. 2019-01 shall not go into effect until Zone Change No.
2019-01 goes into effect.
Section 4. This Resolution is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) pursuant to the State CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14,
Chapter 3, sections: 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably
foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not
a project as defined in Section 15378); and 15061(b)(3), because the activity is covered
by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing
a significant effect on the environment. The Resolution maintains the status quo and
prevents changes in the environment pending the completion of the contemplated
municipal code review. Because there is no possibility that this Resolution may have a
significant adverse effect on the environment, the adoption of this Resolution is exempt
from CEQA.
Section 5. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or word of this Resolution is for
any reason held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not
affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution. The City Council of the City
of Lynwood HEREBY DECLARES that it would have passed and adopted this Resolution
and each and all provisions thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more of said
provisions may be declared to be invalid.
Section 6. This resolution shall be effective immediately upon adoption.
Section 7. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this resolution and hereafter the
same shall be in full force and effect.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE: November 19, 2019
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
APPROVED BY: Jose E. Ometeotl, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Cynthia Stafford, Director of Human Resources & Risk Management
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD TO ENTER
INTO A JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY AGREEMENT WITH THE REGIONAL
GOVERNMENT SERVICES AUTHORITY MUNICIPAL DENTAL POOL TO PROVIDE
DENTAL INSURANCE FOR ACTIVE AND RETIRED EMPLOYEES
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF LYNWOOD TO ENTER INTO A JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY AGREEMENT WITH THE REGIONAL
GOVERNMENT SERVICES AUTHORITY MUNICIPAL DENTAL POOL TO PROVIDE DENTAL
INSURANCE FOR ACTIVE AND RETIRED EMPLOYEES."
Background:
The City of Lynwood provides fulltime employees with a full complement of benefits, including health, dental, vision,
short-term and long-term disability and life insurance. The City’s health plan benefits are provided through
participation in CalPERS insurance programs. The remainder of the benefits the City provides by contracting
directly with the vendors. As a best management practice, the Human Resources Department periodically
reviews its benefit providers to ensure that we are offering the best value and programs for employees. In 2017,
the City changed dental providers to The Standard (Ameritas) based on the cost of the plan. The City had a two-
year rate guarantee for Calendar Years 2018 and 2019. For Calendar Year 2020, Keenan & Associates, our
benefit consultant, asked for a renewal bids from all the City’s carriers for the current benefit packages less health
insurance.
Discussion and Analysis:
The City of Lynwood hired Keenan & Associates in 2017 to assist with a review of our benefit programs and
conduct a market analysis to ensure that the City was offering employees competitive benefits that were cost
effective for the City, as many of our employees participate in cost sharing with the City. In the 2017 market
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 79 of 113
analysis, the City switched from Delta Dental to The Standard for dental insurance based on a reduced cost to the
City. The City was guaranteed a per employee per month (PEPM) rate for 2018 and 2109. For the upcoming
2020 benefit year, Keenan & Associates reached out to all of the City’s providers for a PEPM quote. Keenan
presented the City with marketing results for the current carriers for dental, life insurance and disability coverage
(vision insurance will not be up for renewal until 2021). Based on the PEPM renewal rates presented by The
Standard, the City requested additional vendors be considered for our dental insurance. Keenan requested formal
quotes from multiple dental carriers and received quotes from Delta Dental and The Standard.
The Standard renewal rate was 15% higher than the current PEPM rate being charged to the City. The 15%
increase would result in an unbudgeted annual increase of approximately $32,000 for all funds. Delta Dental, the
City’s prior dental insurance provided, proposed a two-year rate guarantee, which is a 10.06% increase, resulting
in an increase of $21,000 for all funds. The more favorable rate over The Standard is the result of the City joining a
limited JPA of local cities pooling their resources to obtain an advantageous rate on dental insurance.
The rate increase is due to the high out-of-network usage by City employees. The Delta Dental and The Standard
plans are identical but The Standard has a smaller network of dentists, which may explain the higher than average
use of out-of-network providers. The Human Resources & Risk Management Department will work on marketing
the in-network Delta Dental providers to employees to reduce usage of out-of-network providers.
Staff recommends that the City Council of the City of Lynwood approve the attached Resolution and Authorize the
Director of Human Resources & Risk Management to sign an Agreement and Acceptance entering the City of
Lynwood into the Regional Government Services Authority Dental Pool Services.
Pursuant Section 6-3.13(a)(3) "Exceptions" of the Lynwood Municipal Code, the City Council may bypass a
Request For Proposal (RFP) process (by a vote of not less than four-fifths (4/5) of its members) that such an
acquisition may be more economically and efficiently effected through the use of an alternate procedure for this
contract. The City, through its benefits consultant, Keenan & Associates, requested bids from several vendors and
received two proposals. The quoting of insurance rates for employers is a very complicated process that involves
actuarial data on employee demographics, prior usage, loss history, number of lives covered (employees and
dependents) and market conditions. Each year the market conditions and usage history can drive an increase or
decrease in the cost of insurance. Because of the complicated costing structure, the City would need to hire a
vendor to conduct the analyses of provider quotes that would likely negate any savings the City could have
achieved and resulted in the same outcome as that achieved by the informal process conducted by Keenan &
Associates. Moreover, any new dental provider needs to be in place prior to January 1, 2020, to ensure no lapse
in coverage for employees and a formal RFP process would likely extend beyond this deadline. Based on the
foregoing, staff is recommending that the City Council of the City of Lynwood find that the letting of the contract
with Regional Government Services Municipal Dental Pool meets the Exception to RFP as pursuant to Section 6-
3.13(a)(3) "Exceptions" of the Lynwood Municipal Code.
In switching to The Standard in 2017, the City of Lynwood experienced a large disruption to employees, and this is
borne out by the high out-of-network usage by employees, increasing cost to employees and resulting in a
significant increase in the quote for the renewal of the City’s dental insurance. Returning to Delta Dental insurance
should mitigate the employee disruption and slow the increased costs to both the City and those employees that
participate in cost sharing for dental insurance.
The Human Resources & Risk Management Department discussed the changes with the employee associations
and they are in agreement with the change in vendor.
Vision, Life and Disability insurance providers will remain the same.
Fiscal Impact:
Human Resources & Risk Management Department will absorb the increased costs for the remainder of FY
19/20. Thereafter, the costs will be allocated by funds.

HEREBY FIND, PROCLAIM, ORDER AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the City Council authorizes the Director of Human Resources &
Risk Management to join the Regional Government Services Authority Dental Pool
Services to obtain dental insurance through Delta Dental in a form approved by the City
Attorney.
Section 2. That the City Council authorizes the Mayor to end its agreement with
The Standard.
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 84 of 113
Section 3. Pursuant Section 6-3.13(a)(3) "Exceptions" of the Lynwood Municipal
Code, the City Council may bypass a Request For Proposal (RFP) process (by a vote of
not less than four-fifths (4/5) of its members) that such an acquisition may be more
economically and efficiently effected through the use of an alternate procedure.
Section 4. Consistent with Lynwood Municipal Code Section 6-3.13(a)(3) and by
a vote of not less than four-fifths (4/5) of its members, the City Council finds that
contracting directly with the Regional Government Services Authority Dental Pool
Services to obtain dental insurance through Delta Dental is more efficient and economical
than procuring the services via a RFP process due to the intricate market analysis and
formal quoting process utilized by the City’s benefits consultant, Keenan & Associates,
and the exigent need to provide these services to fulltime and retired employees effective
January 1, 2020.
Section 5. That this resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 19th day of November, 2019.

SUBJECT: APPROPRIATION FOR PEACH STREET IMPROVEMENT
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD APPROVING ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION IN THE AMOUNT
OF $263,000. FOR THE PEACH STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CIP No. 4011.68.044) FOR A
NEW WATER MAIN LINE INSTALLATION.”
Background:
On August 8, 2019, Council awarded Peach Street Improvement Project from Weber Street to El Segundo Blvd
(CIP No.4011.68.044) to Sequel Contractors, Inc. in the amount of $578,321.57 (Resolution No. 2019.090).
Project Limit
Peach Street from Weber Street to El Segundo Boulevard.
Project Scope of Work
The Peach Street Improvement Project (“Project”), CIP NO. 4011.68.044, consists of, but is not limited to, the
following work: street resurfacing, and partial replacement of sidewalk, curb, gutter, curb ramps, driveways, alley
intersection and remove and install new trees on Peach Street. The Peach Street, Street Improvement Project is
part of the FY19 and FY20 approved Capital Improvement Program.
Discussion and Analysis:
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 86 of 113
On August 8, 2019 the Project received a total appropriation of $254,062 for the street improvement. This Project
is part of the FY19 and FY20 Capital Improvement Program.
When the contractor began to do some removals, they discovered that the existing water line was only 8-10 inches
below the surface of the pavement. This is very shallow, normally 36” of cover is standard, and thus makes the
waterline susceptible to damage from vehicular loads. In order to avoid suffering a water main break shortly after
completing this street improvement project, the Water Manager and City Engineer recommended that the water
main line be relocated at a lower elevation, and water meters be replaced with smart water meters. The total
appropriation needed is $263,000 which includes a new 8” PVC Water main line, 15 new services and new smart
water meters, and 1 new fire hydrant.
Fiscal Impact:
Project Budget
The funding for the Project budget consisted of CDBG Funds (Fund 2941) and Measure M Bond (Fund 2357) for
the Street Construction.
Staff recommends the following changes in the appropriation to complete the Peach Street Improvement Project:

PREPARED BY: Raul Godinez, Interim Director of Public Works
Lorry Hempe, Public Works Special Projects Manager
SUBJECT: CONTINUATION OF AN EMERGENCY ACTION PER PUBLIC CONTRACT CODE
SECTION 22050 FOR THE REPAIR OF PALM AVENUE
Recommendation:
Staff recommends for the City Council to adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD FINDING THAT THERE IS A NEED TO CONTINUE THE
EMERGENCY ACTION PURSUANT TO PUBLIC CONTRACT CODE SECTION 22050(c)(1)WITH THE
RESPECT TO THE REPAIR OF PALM AVENUE FROM BULLIS ROAD TO THE END OF THE STREET
TO THE EAST BY WAY OF A FOUR-FIFTHS VOTE OF ITS MEMBERS.”
Background:
On May 7, 2019, the City Council initially reviewed the emergency action taken by the City Manager and approved
appropriation for the repairs. There were reported sink holes at Palm Avenue and Bullis Road. After excavation at
the site and CCTV of the sewer lines, staff found sewer main line separation in the street as well as two laterals in
need of repair. Due to the concern for safety, parking restrictions were placed on the south side of the street in the
area of more pronounced sinkhole damage.
Discussion and Analysis:
Project Status
The water line installation by 316 Engineering is 100 percent complete. The pressure test and disinfection were
completed. New meters installation was completed. Repairs of damaged sewer laterals at various locations were
completed. Abandonments of existing water line were completed. Design by Infrastructure Engineers for the street
improvement is 100% percent complete including the additional task to design dry wells, and curb and gutter
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 92 of 113
improvements to address flow issue.
The project was put out to bid and we received three bids. Staff has selected to use Sully-Miller for the street
construction. The street improvement project includes street resurfacing; partial replacement of concrete
sidewalks, curb and gutters, driveway approaches, curb ramps as needed; traffic signing and striping; and drywell
construction.
The drywells are scheduled to be completed first during November and December, in order to be ready to assist
with any storm events. The street improvements have been scheduled to start after the first of the year so as not to
cause disruption during the Thankgiving and Christmas holidays. This will allow all the residents to have
unrestricted access to their homes during that time.
Project Budget
As an emergency project, the Project is being implemented based on time and material. An initial budget was
established to start work immediately and prior to the completion of the plans, specifications and engineer’s
estimate. The estimated street construction cost is $1.5 million based on the completion of the 100% plans. The
water improvements may exceed the $300,000 that the Council allocated for the Project. Since sewer line
installation was not necessary for the entire project site, less monies was expended from the allocated $300,000
from the Sewer Fund.
Findings of an Emergency Action
Staff’s recommended emergency repair of the street is based on the following findings: there are too many sink
holes to fill and patch, the road base has significantly eroded underneath the asphalt, presence of muddy soil at 3
feet, however, dry soil at 7 feet deep, and sewer line and laterals are sagging. Conditions still exist to warrant an
emergency repair of Palm Avenue. Giving notice for bids to let contract would delay the needed repair.
Authority to Act in an Event of an Emergency:
Pursuant to Section 22050(a)(1) of the California Public Contract Code, a public agency, pursuant to a four-fifths
vote of its governing body may repair or replace a public facility, take any directly related and immediate action
required by that emergency, and procure the necessary equipment, services and supplies for those purposes,
without giving notice for bids to let contracts.
Before a governing body takes any action pursuant to paragraph (1), it shall make a finding, based on substantial
evidence set forth in the minutes of its meeting that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a
competitive solicitation for bids, and that action is necessary to respond to the emergency.
Pursuant to Section 22050(b)(1) of the California Public Contract Code, the governing body, by a four-fifths vote,
may delegate, by resolution or ordinance, to the appropriate county administrative officer, city manager, chief
engineer, or other nonelected agency officer, the authority to order any action pursuant to Section 22050(a)(1).
On November 15, 2017, the City Council, by four-fifths vote of the City Council, delegated authority to the City
Manager or his or her designee to order an action specified under the California Public Contract Code Section
(a)(1) pursuant to Section 22050(b)(1).
The City Manager made a finding that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive bid
process and that the action is necessary to respond to the emergency. This finding is based on the Director of
Public Works observations on the amount of sink holes to fill and patch, the road base has significantly eroded
underneath the asphalt, presence of muddy soil at 3 feet, however, dry soil at 7 feet deep, and sewer line and
laterals are sagging. The Director of Public Works has recommended that based on the current conditions, that
immediate repair be implemented.
Four-fifths Vote Requirement to Continue the Action
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 93 of 113
Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 22050(c)(1) at every regularly scheduled meeting after the initial review
of the emergency action, a four-fifths vote of the City Council is needed to continue the action until the emergency
action is terminated.
Fiscal Impact:
Although no additional funding is requested at this time, an amendment to the Project Budget is needed.
Additional funding is also needed for the completed water line improvement based on time and material. Staff will
report back to the City Council in December 2019 with the adjusted project budget once the project quantities and
cost are finalized.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE: November 19, 2019
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
APPROVED BY: Jose E. Ometeotl, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Michelle G. Ramirez, Director of Community Development
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A PROACTIVE CODE ENFORCEMENT POLICY
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that City Council adopt the following resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD, COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
APPROVING A CITY CODE ENFORCEMENT POLICY".
Background:
Code Enforcement serves to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the City's residents and visitors by providing
a comprehensive education and enforcement effort that promotes voluntary compliance and prompt correction of
violations with the City's municipal codes. The focus of Code Enforcement is to investigate violations of laws or
ordinances relating to public health, safety and welfare, the operation of businesses, consumer protection, building
standards, land-use regulations and other municipal interests. Public Safety Officers typically respond to
complaints filed by citizens.
The typical process begins with a complaint from a citizen or by city staff observing a problem. The primary goal
of code enforcement in Lynwood has been to determine if there is a violation, and then to seek voluntary
compliance to correct the violation. The majority of residents or business owners are very cooperative and quickly
correct the issue with support and guidance from Code Enforcement staff. If voluntary compliance does not work
or in the case of serious or repeat offenders, Correction Notices, Administrative Citations, Public Nuisance
Hearings, Office Conferences, Inspection and Abatement Warrants, Criminal Citation or any other remedy
available to the City may be used to achieve compliance.
Using a reactive or complaint-based approach is a good tool to address specific violations; however, it is not
always effective in the reduction of blight in neighborhoods. Using this method relies on property owners to call on
their neighbors, who are often fearful of retaliation for reporting the issue. Furthermore, residents expect the City
to take care of code violations, so when nothing happens and a resident finally calls they are usually upset that the
violations were allowed to continue for so long. In most cases, staff is not aware of the situation until a complaint is
received. Adopting a Pro-active Code Enforcement policy protects residential and commercial assets by
improving neighborhoods and reduces neighborhood complaints.
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 99 of 113
Discussion and Analysis:
The City’s Public Safety Division works collectively to enforce zoning standards, building code, and the City’s
Municipal Code. As related to code enforcement, the Public Safety Division responsibilities include:
To make Lynwood a safer and cleaner place to live, work and visit
To provide prompt, courteous and professional service
To gain voluntary compliance
To encourage responsible property maintenance
Educate Everybody on “What We Do?”
Develop a community outreach program
The home and property matters handled by code enforcement include:
Home and property maintenance issues
Garage sales
Graffiti (private property only)
Trash containers left in the city parkway or within public view
Trash, junk and debris discarded or stored on private property
Inoperable vehicles on private property
Vehicles, front yard parking only
Auto repair on city streets
Lack of exterior weatherization, peeling or deteriorated paint
Building address numbers missing or not clearly visible for public safety
Temporary holiday lighting not removed
Vacant or abandoned unsecured buildings
Temporary advertising signs illegally posted on city trees or utility poles
Code enforcement is mostly driven by complaints. However, the complaint-driven system, by itself, has not been
entirely effective in stemming the tide of code violations in the City. With the creation of Pro-active Code
Enforcement (PACE), the Public Safety Division will undertake proactive efforts identifying code violations and
obtaining compliance, along with responding to citizen complaints.
Pro-active Code Enforcement (PACE)
A Pro-active Code Enforcement (PACE) program shifts from a complaint-based model of code enforcement to a
more pro-active one. Utilizing mobile technology, Public Safety Officers would be able to conduct a windshield
survey in their assigned areas, documenting both structural and non-structural violations such as overgrown grass,
tree debris, inoperable/unregistered vehicles, accumulations of trash and other debris and exterior building issues
such as peeling paint, rotting boards, and unsafe conditions. Property owners and/or tenants, depending on the
violation, will then be notified by the Public Safety Officer in writing of exactly what the violation is, what is
necessary to correct it, and are given a deadline in which corrective measure are required.
Pro-active enforcement promotes a community of safe, healthy, well-maintained neighborhoods. It is important to
educate residents on property maintenance standards with the expectation that understanding these regulations
will promote voluntary compliance. A good example would be informing residents of the Accessory Dwelling Unit
(ADU) statute.
An ADU is a secondary housing unit on a single-family residential lot, either attached or detached from a main
house. A garage to ADU conversion is one of the most common ways to create an additional dwelling
unit. Currently, illegal garage conversion is a big issue within the City. Illegal garage conversions go against
established codes meant to protect the public and maintain municipal consistency. One big issue the City has had
with illegal garage conversions is the starting of fires due to lack of cooking amenities or lack of heat in the
building. These fires have left the tenants of illegal garage conversions homeless. With the passage of the
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) legislation, the State has made it easier to build an ADU in order to increase
housing supply and lower housing costs. When an illegal garage conversion is discovered, the Public Safety
Division works with the property owner educating and guiding them on the process to legalize the unit.
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 100 of 113
In addition, upon the completion of an inspection where issues are found, the Public Safety Officer will inform the
resident of possible services to assist them in correcting the issue/violation, which includes information on the
City’s Fair Housing Program for renters or the Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Program for homeowners.
Again, it is staff's intent to use pro-active enforcement to ensure regulatory compliance in order to abate nuisances
and protect the property values and the quality of life of residents. In addition, pro-active enforcement alleviates
tension between neighbors by utilizing City staff to gain code compliance. It is staff's hope that enacting pro-active
code enforcement will be an added useful and effective tool to combat violations and cleanup neighborhoods.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact.

CITY OF LYNWOOD
CODE ENFORCEMENT POLICY
Introduction
The Pro-Active Code Enforcement (PACE) Policy, approved by the City Council of the
City of Lynwood, provides guidelines for enforcement of the City of Lynwood Municipal
Code, the Zoning Ordinance, and other regulatory codes adopted by the City. This
document is intended to regulate only those enforcement/compliance processes, and
activities, specifically initiated by the City.
Policy Sections
I. Code Enforcement Program
II. Definitions
III. Reactive/ Proactive Enforcement
IV. General Procedures
V. Excessive Complaints
VI. Repeat/ Recurring Violations
VII. Immediate Enforcement Violations
VIII. Advanced Customer Service Pledge
IX. Annual Policy Review
I. Code Enforcement Program
The City has developed a Code Enforcement Program to protect residential and
commercial property values by encouraging basic minimum levels of maintenance. The
City has limited resources, so City staff also relies on residents and business owners to
provide information regarding code violations as well as self-initiated inspections.
A. Standard Enforcement Policy
City of Lynwood residents are supported in their efforts to maintain the physical
environment of their neighborhoods through standards set in local ordinances. To
assist in this endeavor, the following code enforcement policy has been
established to guide the City in addressing properties with code violations.
This policy is a guideline and does not bind the City. The City may deviate from
this policy at any time if at the sole discretion of the City, a deviation is deemed
appropriate.
City Council Regular Meeting - Page 105 of 113

Adopted: November 19, 2019
Typical Violations
• Junk Storage
• Permit Violations
• Garbage and Refuse
• Tall Grass
• Signage
• Yard Parking
• Right-of-Way
• Animals
• Junk Vehicles
• Zoning Use
• Property Maintenance
• Public Nuisance
B. Complaint Priority Classifications
City staff inspects every valid complaint it receives. When a violation is confirmed,
the appropriate action is taken. Due to staff and time constraints, it is sometimes
necessary to prioritize complaints and violations. When this happens, complaints
are prioritized as follows:
1. Immediate risk to public health and safety.
2. High risk to health and safety through potential environmental impacts.
3. Work begun or actions taken without the necessary permits.
4. Aesthetic and nuisance violations.
C. Anonymous Complaints
The City does not accept anonymous requests for investigations as related to code
enforcement. A complainant may request their name and contact information be
kept confidential. There are several reasons the City does not accept anonymous
complaints. First, the City is finding more and more anonymous complaints being
filed due to disputes among neighbors. These anonymous complaints are being
found not complete, false, or frivolous. Since there is no complainant, the Public
Safety Officer is unable to follow up with anyone for additional information.
Anonymous complaints are taking up a lot of time that could be spent on
addressing legitimate complaints. Second, if an anonymous complaint is found
true and the City pursues the matter legally, a complainant must be established as
part of the court proceeding. Unfortunately, without this information, the
overseeing judge can dismiss the case.
II. Definitions
Abatement - Abatements are the removal or repair of a substandard property
conditions by the property owner, agent, contractor or City.

Adopted: November 19, 2019
Administrative Citation – An Administration Citation is issued by a Public Safety
Officer to a person who is deemed responsible for a violation of the Lynwood
Municipal Code. There are two types of citations. The first type requires payment of
an administrative fine. The second type, known as a “Warning” citation, requires that
certain corrective action be taken as specified in the citation. Failure to complete the
corrective action within the time set forth in the citation will result in the imposition of
an administrative fine.
Business Day - In the context of this policy, a Business Day for a Public Safety Officer
is considered Monday through Sunday, from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. The City Hall
Business Day is considered Monday through Thursday, from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
exclusive of holidays. City Hall is closed every Friday.
City Code - The City Code includes all ordinances passed by the City including those
that have been codified.
Compliance Deadline - The Compliance Deadline (re-inspection date) is the date
compliance is required and listed on the Notice of Violation. If compliance has not
occurred by the compliance deadline an administrative citation may be issued, or an
abatement process may be initiated. The Compliance Deadline may be extended at
the discretion of the Public Safety Officer, Public Safety Manager, Director of
Community Development, or the City Manager.
Compliance Inspection - The Compliance Inspection is the re-inspection of the
property the date, which is, established when a notice is issued.
Extension - An Extension provides additional time for a responsible party to fully
remedy any identified code violations. When a legitimate need arises, a responsible
party may request an extension beyond the initial compliance deadline. Extensions
are determined at the sole discretion of the Public Safety Manager, Director of
Community Development, or the City Manager.
Immediate Enforcement Violations - Immediate Enforcement Violations are code
violations where immediate action is required to protect the public health, safety or
welfare, the issuance of a written notice is considered ineffective in deterring repeat,
or future violations. As a result, an immediate citation may be issued.
Initial Property Inspection - The Initial Property Inspection is the first inspection
conducted on a property where a new case is opened. During the Initial Property
Inspection, the Public Safety Officer records any observed violations, attempts to
make direct contact with the responsible party, establishes a compliance deadline,
and issues a verbal or written notice.

Life Safety Hazard - A life-safety hazard is any identified code violation that has the
potential to directly, or indirectly, cause bodily harm. Examples of life-safety hazards
include, but are not limited to: vehicles dangerously positioned on jacks, concrete
blocks, wood, or other physical objects; certain types of right-of way obstructions;
dead trees or trees leaning at precarious angles; missing or obscured building
addresses; swimming pools which are not properly fenced or secured; broken
windows; electrical hazards; unsecured structures; and any other hazardous
conditions where there exists a foreseeable danger to the public. Note: all life-safety
hazards will be described as such on all written notices.
Notice of Violation/Inspection Notice - A Notice of Violation/Inspection Notice is a
standard formal legal notification (written notice) issued by a Public Safety Officer
advising the responsible party that a violation(s) exists on their property. This notice
also establishes a compliance deadline. This written notice is principally designed to
encourage timely voluntary compliance.
Public Safety Officer – An employee of the City designated as the Public Safety
Officer. The term Public Safety Officer also includes all City employees authorized
by the City to issue citations.
Repeat/Recurring Violation - A Repeat/Recurring Violation is a code violation on a
property involving the same responsible party for the same or substantially the same
violation as identified on a previous investigation within the last twelve (12) months.
Note: the twelve (12) months is calculated from the date of the Compliance
Inspection to the date of the Initial Property inspection of the new violation.
Responsible Party
1. The listed owner(s) on the Los Angeles County Assessors real property parcel
record.
2. All tenants on the property.
3. Any person or entity creating a violation even if they are not the record owner
or tenant.
4. For Limited Liability Corporations, or other forms of businesses and
corporations, the responsible party is the listed Officers as identified by the
California Secretary of State.
Voluntary Compliance - Voluntary Compliance is achieved when all identified code
violations are corrected before the established compliance deadline. This allows the
Public Safety Officer to pass the inspection without the issuance of a citation, or the
initiation of an abatement process. Voluntary Compliance is considered the preferred
method of resolving code violations.

III. Reactive/ Proactive Enforcement.
A. Reactive (Complaint Based) Enforcement
The Lynwood Municipal Code, including but not limited to the Zoning
Ordinance, and other regulatory codes adopted by the City are principally
enforced on a complaint basis. This is designed to encourage a resident,
neighborhood associations, block watch programs, or other City departments
to actively participate in the enforcement/ compliance process.
In the interests of providing improved customer service, all complainants will
be asked and must provide a name and contact phone number. Note: all
recorded complainant contact information is maintained confidential to the
extent allowed by law.
If a complaint is not patently obvious, the City may require the complainant to
provide additional evidence of the violation such as photographs, a survey or
access to their property to confirm a violation exists. If evidence is available
to indicate the reported violation has existed for a long period of time, the City
may elect not to pursue the complaint.
B. Proactive Enforcement
A Public Safety Officer may observe and respond to code violations Monday
– Sunday, from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., visit areas for reactive enforcement,
or proactive code enforcement sweeps.
IV. General Procedures
A. Life Safety Complaints
If the alleged violation concerns a potential health or safety hazard to the
neighborhood or neighbors, inclusive of open/vacant buildings, fire hazard
and/ or health hazards, or other health and safety hazards, the City’ s goal will
be to respond within one (1) business day of receiving the complaint.
B. Non-Life Safety Complaints
If the alleged violation is not a potential health or safety hazard the City’s goal
will be to respond within five (5) business days of receiving the complaint.
C. Notice of Violation
Upon the initial property inspection, the responsible party will be notified of any
violation(s) discovered during the inspection process through the issuance of
a written notice. If the responsible party is not present to receive the written
notice at the time of the initial property inspection, the notice will be posted on
the property in a conspicuous location and may be mailed. The notice of
violation will specify a compliance deadline. The notice of violation will also list
any observed code violation(s).

Adopted: November 19, 2019
D. Final Notice of Violation – Citation/Abatement for Non- Compliance
Unless a violation is an immediate enforcement violation, any uncorrected
code violations remaining after the Compliance Deadline will receive a final
Notice of Violation. After the final notice compliance deadline, remaining
violations are subject to citation and/or the initiation of abatement. In addition,
a final notice will also provide an explanation that repeat/ recurring code
violations, on the same property, within twelve (12) months are subject to
expedited legal action as defined in Section VI. “Repeat/ Recurring Violations”.
E. Extension
In general, Extensions may be authorized for a specified period. Responsible
parties who demonstrate to the Public Safety Officer the existence of
circumstances requiring additional flexibility or deviation from the compliance
deadline may be granted an extension for a specified reasonable period based
upon consideration by the City of the following factors:
1. Resolution of all Life-Safety Hazards
An extension will not be considered, or provided, to any responsible
party where a life-safety hazard exists or where active and verifiable
steps to physically mitigate the hazard are not in place.
2. Achievement of Measurable Progress
Upon the compliance inspection, the property shows significant
measurable improvement from the conditions observed during the initial
property inspection.
3. Establishment of Direct Communication
The responsible party establishes direct communication with the
assigned Public Safety Officer prior to the initial compliance deadline.
Direct Communication could be face-to-face, e-mail, or direct phone
contact.
4. Written Commitment to Voluntarily Comply
The responsible party states their intention to fully remedy all recorded
violations on their property. This statement must be made in writing after
establishing direct communication. The timeframes requested will be
reviewed by the Public Safety Officer. However, only one extension will
be offered unless significant measurable improvement can be
demonstrated.
V. Excessive Complaints
The purpose of this section is to deal with situations where one or more parties
inappropriately use the Code Enforcement system. What begins as a complaint
escalates into multiple complaints between two parties. Both parties use the
complaint process to antagonize each other.

The City has limited resources, in both staffing and funding, to manage complaints
and code violations. The City has the right to choose how to best use these resources
in a fashion that prudently utilizes taxpayer resources. The purpose of this Complaint
Policy is to establish a protocol and standards for the staff to use to determine
whether the enforcement tools available to the City are no longer effective. The City
does not intend to ignore complaints; staff will continue to take the appropriate
enforcement action when a legitimate City Code violation exists. Depending on the
nature of the Code violation and the impact the Code violation has on the health,
welfare and safety of the City and its residents, the City staff will prioritize the list of
pending complaints it receives. Staff may choose to limit the amount of follow-up in
certain situations.
Staff will use the following guidelines to determine if a complaint is defined as
excessive. Excessive complaints are ongoing complaints where all or most of the
following is defined are present:
1. The alleged violation does not pose an immediate risk to public health and
safety, there is no high risk to health and safety through potential
environmental impacts, or alleged violation is a private property dispute.
2. The nature of the complaints moves from reporting a legitimate Code violation
to a frivolous complaint or a complaint deemed to be using the City to harass
another party; or
3. The parties refuse to participate in process identified by the City to attempt to
resolve the dispute.
Excessive and repetitive complaints by the same party or parties consume
considerable staff time to inspect the alleged violation, talk with the parties involved,
write letters requesting corrective action, perform a follow up inspection and
potentially have further discussions with involved parties. There is no formula, either
objective or subjective to determine when City efforts have been unsuccessful. In
determining whether City efforts has been unsuccessful staff will consider the
following:
1. How much time the City has invested in working with the parties to address
the City Code violation.
2. Whether the City has recommended a viable solution that is achievable within
a reasonable amount of time (90 days).
3. Whether the nature of the violation is creating a dangerous situation that puts
people and property at risk.
4. Whether the essential basis of the dispute is civil.
Once a determination is made, staff may consult with the City Attorney to determine
the City’s legal obligations and options. All future complaints from the parties must
be in writing. Staff will investigate any subsequent and unrelated complaints received
from the parties and take the appropriate action. The staff will not follow-up with the
complainant.

VI. Repeat/Recurring Violations
The Repeat/Recurring Violation process is designed to provide resolution through an
expedited enforcement/compliance mechanism for responsible parties who
repeatedly violate City ordinances and who have demonstrated an inability, or
unwillingness, to responsibly maintain their property.
A. Notification Policy
Investigations where Repeat/Recurring Violations are identified will proceed
through a procedural fast track. The discovery of a repeat offense is cause to:
1. Issue a repeat/ recurring violation warning notice
The Repeat Recurring Violation Warning Notice will be a final notice of
violation that will be mailed directly to the responsible party(s), via U.S. Mail,
to the address as listed on the Los Angeles County Assessor Record. This
written notice will advise the responsible party that repeat/ recurring violations
may be present on their property. Educational material describing other
common code violations may be included with the warning notice. As specified
in the final notice of violation, a compliance inspection will be made. At the
time of this compliance inspection, any unresolved repeat/ recurring violations
are cause to:
1. Issue a citation;
2. Initiate an abatement process
Note: An extension for Repeat/Recurring Violations may be reviewed and approved
by the City.
VII. Immediate Enforcement Violations
Certain types of illegal activities constitute an imminent public safety and health
hazard. The following types of illegal activities may result in the issuance of a citation
without the benefit of receiving a written notice:
1. Person(s) found illegally dumping litter or waste onto any property, vacant
parcels, or City right-of-ways.
2. Food vendor(s) who are selling food products without valid City/State licenses.
3. Merchandise vendors who are soliciting customers without a valid City/State
license.
4. Person(s) who allow a vehicle to remain unattended in a condition that it is
openly accessible to the public and that presents a life-safety hazard.
5. Person(s) found responsible for causing an obstruction of a public street, or
sidewalk.
6. Other violations as determined by the City.

IX. Policy Review
The City Council should receive a monthly report from City staff regarding code
enforcement activity for the month, including number of cases opened, number of
cases closed, and who the inspections were initiated by (proactive vs. reactive).
