CITY COUNCIL ORAL AND WRITTEN COMMUNICATION (The complete audio of the City Council oral and written communication is available upon request at the City Clerk’s office) Council Member Flores stated he noticed the final payment for the design of the Mega Playground and would like staff to provide an update on all playground projects, including Ham Park playground. He also expressed his concern regarding pedestrian crossings near Chase Bank at the corner Ernest and MLK in that the red curb no parking areas are filled day and evening/weekends and week-days with vehicles. He indicated the situation is creating dangerous crossing turns and blocking the cross walks for pedestrians and requested staff to evaluate possible solutions such as getting a crossing guard to help in this area. Council Member Solache - None Council Member Soto - None Mayor Pro Tem Casanova indicated that code enforcement officers and public safety officers are down approximately 12-14 staff members from previous fully functioning levels of the City. Mayor Pro Tem also agreed with Council Member Flores’ viewpoint and remarked that it is a public safety deficiency when cars are parked in red curb areas and code enforcement is not responding; however, acknowledged that the underlying problem is the lack of staff and suggested management to look into the hiring process or identify the requirements to determine how many officers can be brought on board as soon as possible to resolve this issue. Additionally, stated that cars are being parked on lawns and illegally parked throughout the whole City which really impacts the quality of life for the residents of the City and the whole community suffers. Mayor Pro Tem Casanova also requested the completion of painting street brackets on all on the finished streets and identified Virginia specifically needing to be painted and emphasized the consistency of such details make the City look cleaner and creates less fiction within neighborhood residents. Mayor Santana thanked everyone for attending the meeting today and stated that she participated in a meeting last week with Gateway Cities Council (COG) with Senator Lena Gonzalez which included discussion regarding the expansion of I- 710 Freeway and how it would affect the City of Lynwood.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Gabriela Camacho, City Treasurer Sheila Harding, Deputy City Treasurer SUBJECT: TREASURER'S MONTHLY INVESTMENT REPORT Recommendation: It is recommended that the City of Lynwood receive and file the attached Monthly Investment Report. The following information is provided to ensure City Council is informed of the investment activities for the City. Background: Government Code Section 53607, last amended 1996, with reference to the reporting of investment transactions states that the Treasurer shall make a monthly report of those transaction to the legislative body. Government Code Section 53646 (b) (1), last amended 2004, with reference to discussion related to establishment of an Investment Policy and investment reporting states that “the Treasurer may render a quarterly report”. To determine the applicable code inasmuch as reference to Government Code Section 53607 or non-compliance thereof has never been included in past audit findings. While Government Code Section 53646 (b) (1) which is the most current version related to Investment Reporting utilizes the word “may” indicating the reporting mechanism is optional, to err on the side of caution, and in order to ensure that we are in compliance with all Government Codes, a new procedure of submitting monthly reports to the Council/Agency agenda was implemented. Attached for Council/Agency review is the City’s/Agency’s Monthly Treasurer’s Report. Subsequent reports will be provided on a monthly basis at the second meeting of each month. Discussion and Analysis: The investment transactions were executed in accordance with the City's Investment Policy and the California State Government Code Section 53646(b)(3) that requires the general fund is able to meet its expenditure requirements for the next six months.

The labor market tightened substantially further amid high demand for workers and constrained supply, with the unemployment rate reaching the median of Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) participants' estimates of its longer-run normal level and nominal wages rising at their fastest pace in decades. With demand strong, and amid ongoing supply chain bottlenecks and constrained labor supply, inflation increased appreciably last year, running well above the FOMC's longer-run objective of 2 percent and broadening out to a wider range of items. As 2022 began, the rapid spread of the Omicron variant appeared to be causing a slowdown in some sectors of the economy, but with Omicron cases having declined sharply since mid-January, the slowdown is expected to be brief. Over the second half of last year, the FOMC held its policy rate near zero to support the continued economic recovery. The Committee began phasing out net asset purchases in November and accelerated the pace of the phase-out in December; net asset purchases will end in early March. With inflation well above the FOMC's longer-run objective and a strong labor market, the Committee expects it will soon be appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate. Monetary Policy Interest rate policy. The FOMC has continued to keep the target range for the federal funds rate at 0 to 1/4 percent since the previous Monetary Policy Report. With inflation well above the Committee's 2 percent longer-run goal and a strong labor market, the Committee expects it will soon be appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate.

Page 57 of 167 Agenda Item # 11. AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Noel Tapia, City Attorney SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOULTION PROCLAIMING A LOCAL EMERGENCY, RATIFYING THE PROCLAMATION OF A STATE OF EMERGENCY BY GOVERNOR NEWSOM, FINDING THAT THE PROCLAIMED STATE OF EMERGENCY CONTINUES TO IMPACT THE ABILITY TO MEET SAFELY IN PERSON, AND DECLARING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL AND CITY COMMISSIONS AND COMMITTEES WILL COTINUE TO MEET REMOTELY IN ADHERENECE WITH AB 361 IN ORDER TO ENSURE THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC Recommendation: Staff is recommending that the City Council adopt a City Council Resolution entitled: “A Resolution Proclaiming a Local Emergency, Ratifying the Proclamation of a State of Emergency by Governor Newsom, Finding that the Proclaimed State of Emergency Continues to Impact the Ability to Meet Safely in Person, and Declaring that the City Council and City Commissions and Committees Will Continue to Meet Remotely in Adherence With AB 361 in Order to Ensure the Health and Safety of the Public” Background: Beginning in March 2020, Governor Newsom issued a series of Executive Orders aimed at containing the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Among these were several Executive Orders N-25-20, N-29-20, N-35-20 (collectively, the Brown Act Orders) that waived requirements in the Brown Act expressly or impliedly requiring the physical presence of city councilmembers, staff, or the public at local agency meetings. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill AB 361 (Rivas, 2021), which allows cities to continue to meet remotely during proclaimed states of emergency under modified Brown Act requirements that are similar, but not identical to the rules and procedures established by the Brown Act Orders. Discussion and Analysis: City Council Regular Meeting - Page 58 of 167 Beginning in March 2020, Governor Newsom issued a series of Executive Orders aimed at containing the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Among these were several Executive Orders N-25-20, N-29-20, N-35-20 (collectively, the Brown Act Orders) that waived requirements in the Brown Act expressly or impliedly requiring the physical presence of city councilmembers, staff, or the public at local agency meetings. Specifically, the orders: • Waived the requirement that local agencies provide notice of each teleconference location from which a member of the legislative body will be participating in a public meeting; • Waived the requirement that each teleconference location be accessible to the public; • Waived the requirement that members of the public be able to address the legislative body at each teleconference conference location; • Waived the requirement that local agencies post agendas at all teleconference locations; and, • Waived the requirement that at least a quorum of the members of the local body participate from locations within the boundaries of the territory over which the local body exercises jurisdiction. On June 11, 2021, the Governor issued Executive Order (EO) N-08-21 to begin winding down some of the prior measures that were adopted to respond to COVID-19. Notably, EO N-08-21 rescinds the Brown Act Orders, effective September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill AB 361 (Rivas, 2021), which allows cities to continue to meet remotely during proclaimed states of emergency under modified Brown Act requirements that are similar, but not identical to the rules and procedures established by the Brown Act Orders. The pending expiration of the Brown Act Orders and the enactment of AB 361 created some ambiguity. To provide clarification, the Governor issued Executive Order N-15-21, explaining that cities may continue to hold meetings in accordance with the Brown Act Orders until September 30, or they may hold meetings in accordance with the requirements of AB 361. Should the City Council wish to continue meeting remotely beyond September 30 pursuant to AB 361, the City Council would be required to adopt the attached resolution. If the City Council chooses to utilize the option for remote meetings under AB 361, it can continue using the remote meeting procedures it has been using throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, subject to certain requirements that must be considered as part of the initial determination to adopt remote meeting protocols. Once adopted, the initial authorizing resolution is effective for no more than thirty (30) days. The City may extend the authorization for an additional thirty (30) days via another resolution that makes specific findings in support of continuing remote meetings. The City may continue to extend the authorization for additional thirty (30) day increments for the duration of the declared emergency, or until the City Council decides to return to in-person meetings, or otherwise complies with the regular remote meeting requirements of the Brown Act. To implement remote meetings under AB 361, one of three criteria must be met at the time the City is holding a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency by the Governor that includes area within the jurisdictional boundaries of the City: • State or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or • For the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether as a result of the state of emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees; or • The City Council has previously determined, by majority vote, that, as a result of the state of emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees. If one of these three criteria are met, then the City can conduct meetings remotely via Government Code §§ 54953(e), et seq. If the City Council makes the required findings and chooses to meet remotely, every 30 days the City Council will be required to make findings about whether the circumstances still apply. The City Council must find that it reconsidered the circumstances of the State of Emergency and that one of the following circumstances remains: • The City Council finds that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees; or • State or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing. City Council Regular Meeting - Page 59 of 167 If the City Council makes the findings to continue having remote meetings, the City must meet the following requirements: 1. The City must give notice and post agendas as otherwise required by the Brown Act, including directions for how the public can access the meetings; 2. Provide members of the public access to the meeting and an opportunity to address the body directly; 3. Provide members of the public the opportunity to comment in real time; 4. Suspend further action on items in the meeting agenda in the event that there is a disruption in the ability of the meeting to be broadcast to members of the public or in the ability for members of the public to comment; Following the signing of AB 361 and in preparation for the potential sunset of emergency orders, it is prudent for the City Council to begin discussing and provide feedback on the manner in which Lynwood Public Meetings will be conducted. If the City Council were to move back into meetings in the City Council Chambers, COVID-19 infection protocols, as outlined in the most recent County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health – Health Officer Order, would need to be implemented and adhered to. Currently, these infection protocols would require all individuals, regardless of vaccination status, to wear face-coverings. As the City Council reviews, please note that staff has identified a couple of scenarios to consideration associated with transitioning to any of the modules that have an in-person component: 1. Wearing Masks During Meetings 2. Room Capacity Limits. Staff would have to develop a seating plan to ensure the safety of those in attendance. Fiscal Impact: No fiscal impact is anticipated the proposed action.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Thomas W. Thornton, PE Director of Public Works Lorry Hempe, Public Works Special Projects Manager SUBJECT: COST SHARING COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF COMPTON FOR THE STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ON STONEACRE AVENUE AND MCMILLAN STREET Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A COST SHARING COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF COMPTON, INCLUDING ANY NECESSARY AMENDMENTS THERETO, FOR DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING AND INSPECTION, PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION OF THE STREET IMPROVEMENT OF STONEACRE AVENUE FROM CARLIN AVENUE TO MCMILLAN STREET AND MCMILLAN STREET FROM STONEACRE AVENUE TO ATLANTIC AVENUE FOR AN ESTIMATED TOTAL CONTRACT AMOUNT OF $1,026,212; TO APPROVE THE REDUCTION OF THE PROJECT BUDGETS ON CERTAIN CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS TO RELEASE UNSPENT BUDGET TO MEASURE M BOND (FUND 2357); TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FROM MEASURE M BOND IN THE AMOUNT OF $1,026,212 FOR STONEACRE AVENUE AND MCMILLAN STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FOR WHICH UP TO $559,379 OF THE TOTAL COST WILL BE REIMBURSED BY THE CITY OF COMPTON FOR ITS FAIR SHARE OF THE COST.” Background: The cities of Lynwood and Compton boundaries bisect the streets of Stoneacre Avenue from Carlin Avenue to McMillan Street and on McMillan Street from Stoneacre Avenue to Atlantic Avenue. The proposed project, Stoneacre Avenue and McMillan Street Improvement Project (Project) includes the following scope of work within the following street limits: Project Scope The Project consists of street resurfacing, and partial replacement of concrete sidewalks, curb and gutters, driveway’s approaches, curb ramps, traffic signing and striping. City Council Regular Meeting - Page 65 of 167 Project Limits 1) Stoneacre Avenue from Carlin Avenue to McMillan Street 2) McMillan Street from Stoneacre Avenue to Atlantic Avenue On June 15, 2021, the City Council authorized the City Manager or his designee to pursue a cost sharing arrangement with the City of Compton for the street improvement of Stoneacre Avenue from Carlin Avenue to McMillan Street and McMillan Street from Stoneacre Avenue to Atlantic Avenue as well as to start the design of these street segments. (Resolution 2021.071) On October 12, 2021, the City of Compton’s City Council approved its share of the cost at $559,379 for the Project. Discussion and Analysis: The design portion of Stoneacre Avenue is 100% complete. The design for McMillan Street from Stoneacre Avenue to Atlantic Avenue is yet to be completed. There is a public benefit to improve the entire width of the street from curb to curb and to apply a common construction strategy on a single street. Representatives from the cities of Lynwood and Compton have shared an interest to pursue street improvements on shared streets where jurisdictional boundaries split ownership of the streets. The proposed resolution authorizes the City Manager to enter into a cost sharing cooperative agreement with the City of Compton including any necessary amendments thereto, for the street improvement of Stoneacre Avenue from Carlin Avenue to McMillan Street and McMillan Street from Stoneacre Avenue to Atlantic Avenue (Project) including design, construction engineering and inspection, project management and administration for an estimated total contract amount of $1,026,212. The City of Compton has agreed to pay its share of the cost at $559,379. Joining with the City of Compton in sharing the costs of this Project will facilitate pavement rehabilitation work, minimize public inconvenience and save City staff resources and funds that would need to be expended if the City of Lynwood were to procure rehabilitation of Stoneacre Avenue and McMillan Street within Lynwood boundaries on its own. Staff recommends the approval of the cost sharing cooperative agreement with the City of Compton to carry out this Project. Fiscal Impact: Under the proposed Joint Agreement (Exhibit A), the City will need to front up the cost and reimbursed by City of Compton within 60 days of receipt of invoice. The total estimated cost of the Project is $1,026,212. The City of Lynwood’s share of the Project cost is $466,833 and City of Compton’s share of the Project cost is $559,379. To provide upfront funding for the Project, it is necessary to reduce the adopted FY22 budget for certain projects. These projects have either been accepted by the City Council or completed and anticipated to be accepted by the City Council in April/May 2022. By adjusting the budgets in FY22, we are able to release the funds to be used for the Project. Once the City of Compton, reimburses the City for their share of cost, the fiscal net impact to the City is $466,833.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Patrick Matson, Director of Human Resources/Risk Management SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE CITY OF LYNWOOD APPROVING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CARNEY MEHR, A LEGAL CORPORATION, IN THE AMOUNT OF $25,000 FOR CONTINUED LEGAL SERVICES CONCERNING LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS MATTERS Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council of the City of the City of Lynwood adopt the attached resolution entitled, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD APPROVING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CARNEY MEHR, A LEGAL CORPORATION, IN THE AMOUNT OF $25,000 FOR CONTINUED LEGAL SERVICES CONCERNING LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS MATTERS.” Background: In July of 2019, the previous City Manager (within his authorization) entered into an agreement not to exceed $25,000 with Carney Mehr, a Legal Corporation, for legal services regarding labor and employment relations matters specific to CalPERS. Because the City continues to utilize Ms. Mehr’s legal services and is approaching the original agreement’s limit of $25,000, staff is seeking City Council approval by way of resolution, authorizing the City Manager to enter into a new Professional Services Agreement with Carney Mehr, a Legal Corporation, retroactive to March 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 in an amount not to exceed $25,000. Discussion and Analysis: Ms. Mehr continues to represent the City in labor and employment matters, specific to an ongoing retirement dispute with CalPERS. Because the matter in which Ms. Mehr is representing the City is ongoing and has now exceeded the City Manager’s authority of $25,000, staff is proposing to enter into a new Professional Services Agreement with Carney Mehr, a Legal Corporation, not to exceed $25,000, which will require approval by way of resolution by the City Council. As part of this latest proposed professional services agreement, staff is recommending to keep the terms of the City Council Regular Meeting - Page 79 of 167 original agreement with some minor revisions including the duration of the agreement made retroactive to March 1, 2022, and ending on June 30, 2023. Additionally, the Scope of Services and General Terms and Conditions will also remain consistent with what was agreed to originally, along with a cap of $25,000. Fiscal Impact: Not to exceed $25,000.

City Council Regular Meeting - Page 94 of 167 Agenda Item # 14. AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Thomas Thornton, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Lorry Hempe, Public Works Special Projects Manager SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF PROJECTS TO INCLUDE IN THE FISCAL YEAR 2022-23 ANNUAL PLAN FOR THE SAFE, CLEAN WATER PROGRAM Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD APPROVING THE PROJECTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2022- 23 ANNUAL PLAN FOR THE SAFE, CLEAN WATER PROGRAM; AND APPROVING THE APPROPRIATION AND AMENDMENT TO THE FY23 ADOPTED BUDGET.” Background: On November 6, 2018, Measure W (the Safe, Clean Water (SCW) Program ballot measure) was successfully passed by the voters. The SCW Program provides local, dedicated funding to increase water supply, improve water quality, and provide community enhancements throughout Los Angeles County (LA County). Each municipality is required to submit an Annual plan for the upcoming year’s expenditure. The intent of this plan is to provide a description of projects, programs, O&M and other activities that are funded through the SCW program revenue collected for the Municipal Program. The FY23 Annual Plan is due to the District on April 1, 2022. On August 4, 2020, the City Council approved Resolution 2020.103 authorizing the City Manager to execute the “Transfer Agreement Between the Los Angeles County Flood Control District and Lynwood Agreement NO. 2020MP48 Safe, Clean Water Program-Municipal Program” (“Transfer Agreement”) and to submit the initial and subsequent Annual Plans to Los Angeles County Flood Control District (District). Alignment of the City budget with the SCW Annual Plan is needed to ensure that the programs/projects included in the SCW Annual plan are implemented. Discussion and Analysis: MS4 Permit Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) receive stormwater and non-stormwater discharges from City Council Regular Meeting - Page 95 of 167 various sources, including municipal MS4s and other public agencies, discharges under the NPDES permits or authorized by the USEPA, groundwater and natural flow. As the discharges flow over the urban landscape, they may pick up pollutants generated by urban activities, such as metals, bacteria, pesticides, fertilizers and trash. Polluted stormwater and non-stornwater discharges conveyed through the MS4 ultimately reach receiving waters, resulting in adverse water quality impacts. The goal of the MS4 Permit is to reduce the discharge of pollutants from MS4. Municipal discharges of storm and non-storm water by the City is subject to the water discharge requirements under Order No. R4-2012-0175 as amended by Order WQ 2015-0075 for the MS4 by the Regional Water Board. Under the MS4 Permit, permittees are allowed the flexibility to develop Watershed Management Programs to implement the requirements under the MS4 Permit on a watershed scale through customized strategies, control measures and Best Management Practices (BMPs). On October 1, 2013, the City Council authorized a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Los Angeles Gateway Region Integrated Regional Water Management Joint Powers Authority and the cities of Downey, Lakewood, Long Beach, Lynwood, Paramount, Pico Rivera, Signal Hill, South Gate and the Los Angeles County Flood Control County Flood Control District for the purpose of preparing a Watershed Management Program (WMP) and a Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP). The LLAR developed a WMP to implement the requirements of the MS4 Permit on a watershed scale. In addition elements of the WMP relating to the Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) address requirements of California State Water Resources Control Board order No. 2012-0011-DWQ (the Caltrans Stormwater Permit) for those TMDLs within the watershed areas. All the Orders (MS4 Permit and Caltrans Stormwater Permit) include three fundamental elements: 1) effectively prohibit nonstormwater discharges through the MS4, 2) implement controls to reduce the discharge of pollutants to the maximum extent practicable, and 3) other provisions the Regional Water Board has determined appropriate for the control of such pollutants. On June 3, 2014, the City Council approved the WMP and CIMP. On April 28, 2015, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board approved, with conditions, the Lower Los Angeles River Group’s (LLAR) WMP pursuant to the MS4 Permit. The WMP sets forth a path to achieve pollutant reductions in the waterbodies of the Lower Los Angeles River and its tributaries. Included in the WMP is the Reasonable Assurance Analysis (RAA) which predicts an optimal combination of structural treatment systems and construction timelines to achieve the goals of the MS4 Permit. The RAA distributes the responsibility for implementation of future treatment systems amongst all Lower Los Angeles River Watershed cities. Cost of Implementing the WMP Financing the implementation of LLAR WMP is the greatest challenge confronting the Watershed Group. The cost to comply with the MS4 Permit remains prohibitive. The structural BMPs alone costs $18.6 million to $34.8 million to capture 95.5 acre-feet of stormwater in Lynwood. This is in addition to non-structural BMPs that the City would need to implement. Prior to Measure W passing, agencies have no dedicated revenue stream to pay for the implementation of the WMP. The annual allocation will help the City defray some but not all of the cost of compliance. Safe, Clean Water Annual Plan To receive funds the is required to annually prepare and submit to the District an Annual Plan, or plan for the expenditures, no later than 90-days from the start of the fiscal year. Expenditure eligible for SCW Program funds include, but are not limited, to the following: · Infrastructure development tasks including design and planning, preparation of grant applications, preparation of environmental documents, obtaining permits, construction, operations and maintenance, and inspection; · Real property acquisition, including fee title, leases, easements and right of entry permits, necessary to City Council Regular Meeting - Page 96 of 167 implement Projects selected for funding under the SCW Program; · Scientific and technical studies, and Stormwater or Urban Runoff modeling and monitoring; · Water quality or regional water resilience planning; · Stormwater or Urban Runoff residential and/or commercial retrofits; · Projects or studies to pilot or investigate new technologies or methodologies to increase or improve Stormwater or Urban Runoff capture or reduce Stormwater or Urban Runoff pollution for improving water quality, increasing local water supplies, or improving the quality of life for communities; · The development of Feasibility Studies to enable Infrastructure Program Project Applicants to submit Projects for consideration for SCW Program funds; · The modification, upgrade, retrofit, or expansion of an existing Project to incorporate new elements to increase Stormwater or Urban Runoff capture and reduce Stormwater or Urban Runoff pollution to provide an additional Water Quality Benefit, Water Supply Benefit, or Community Investment Benefit; · Debt financing, should the District or a Municipality determine that bonds or loans are prudent and necessary to implement Projects or Programs; · Stormwater or Urban Runoff Programs such as, but not limited to, school education and curriculum, public education, watershed coordination efforts, regional water quality planning and coordination, and local workforce job training; · Administration and implementation of the SCW Program; and · Payments pursuant to an incentive program, as may be established by the Board.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Thomas W. Thornton, PE Director of Public Works Lorry Hempe, Public Works Special Projects Manager SUBJECT: LYNWOOD CITY PARK STORMWATER CAPTURE PROJECT Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOD APPROVING THE APPROPRIATION OF THE SAFE CLEAN WATER PROGRAM-REGIONAL PROGRAM GRANT FUNDS FOR FY22 AND FY23 TO A NEW CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT ENTITLED LYNWOOD CITY PARK STORMWATER CAPTURE PROJECT.” Background: On September 15, 2021, the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (County) Governing Body approved the recommended Stormwater Investment Plans (SIPs) for Fiscal Year 2021-22 (FY22) for the Safe Clean Water Program’s Regional Program. Included in the Lower Los Angeles River Watershed SIP is a project from the City entitled Lynwood City Park Stormwater Capture Project (Project). The Project is to develop a regional stormwater capture infiltration system that will also install a new parking lot, soccer field and ephemeral stream at the Lynwood City Park. The Safe, Clean Water grant fund in the amount of $1,691,629 is to fund the environmental planning, permitting, design, and community outreach and project management. On October 19, 2021, the City Council authorized the City Manager to sign the Transfer Agreement Between the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (District) and the City for the Project (Resolution No. 2021.119). On March 2, 2022, the City received an advance of $1,691,629 in grant funds from the District. To deliver the Project, staff requests for the City Council to amend the adopted Biennial City Budget (FY22 and FY23) appropriating the funds and establishing a new Capital Improvement Project (CIP) for the Project. Discussion and Analysis: Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) receive stormwater and non-stormwater discharges from various sources, including municipal MS4s and other public agencies, discharges under the NPDES permits or authorized by the USEPA, groundwater and natural flow. As the discharges flow over the urban landscape, they may pick up pollutants generated by urban activities, such as metals, bacteria, pesticides, fertilizers and trash. City Council Regular Meeting - Page 105 of 167 Polluted stormwater and non-stormwater discharges conveyed through the MS4 ultimately reach receiving waters, resulting in adverse water quality impacts. The goal of the MS4 Permit is to reduce the discharge of these pollutants from MS4. To comply with the MS4 Permit, the City joined the Lower Los Angeles River Watershed Group (LLAR) to jointly undertake certain MS4 permit requirements at a watershed level. Members of the LLAR include cities of Downey, Lakewood, Long Beach, Lynwood, Paramount, Pico Rivera, Signal Hill, and South Gate; and the District. On April 28, 2015, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board approved with conditions the LLAR Watershed Management Program (WMP). Included in the WMP is the implementation of regional structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce pollutants. Within the City of Lynwood, according to the modeling results, Reasonable Assurance Analysis (RAA), the City will need to capture and/or treat 34.2 acre-feet by January 11, 2024 to meet the 50% interim compliance milestone, and 95.5 acre-feet by January 11, 2028 to meet the final compliance milestone. The Lynwood City Park has a potential to capture 12 acre feet of stormwater. The Project entails the planning and design of a storage/infiltration facility under an existing park area, namely the soccer field. (Attachment A) Project Scope of Work: The Project is to develop a regional stormwater capture and infiltration system that will also install a new parking lot, soccer field and ephemeral stream at Lynwood City Park. The grant funding obtained successfully was for $1,691,629 to fund the environmental planning, permitting, design, and community outreach and project management. Once the design phase is completed, staff will seek out funding for construction. Project Location: Lynwood City Park Fiscal Impact: Financing the implementation of the LLAR’s WMP is the greatest challenge confronting the Watershed Group. Pursuant to the 2015 WMP, the total estimated costs of structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) for the City is $18.6 million to $34.8 million. This is in addition to strategies and watershed control measures to reduce pollutants reaching receiving waters. The 2015 WMP recognizes the need to seek funding in order to meet the various WMP implementation deadlines. To leverage the City’s resources, staff successfully obtained grant funding from the Safe, Clean Water Program – Regional Program in the amount of $1,691,629 for the environmental planning and design. The early estimated cost for construction is $14.6 million. Staff will need to seek out grant funds for the construction cost of the Project.

The City currently contracts with MuniServices, LLC to provide sales and use, and property tax analysis/audit services. MuniServices, LLC assists the City in monitoring existing and the City’s Measure PS and Measure RD Transaction and Use Tax revenues. Discussion and Analysis: In July 2017, the State Board of Equalization (SBOE) restructured to better serve its taxpayers. The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) now oversees most of the taxes and fees previously City Council Regular Meeting - Page 113 of 167 collected by the SBOE. When the City entered into an agreement with MuniServices in October 2021, pertinent language was omitted from the agreement. The consultant recently notified staff that the CDTFA is requiring new language to be added to all contracts that include District tax measures. Therefore, in order for MuniServices, LLC, to gain access to confidential sales and use tax records, the City must amend its current agreement to include the language required by the CDTFA specific to Section 7056 of the Revenue and Taxation code. In addition, the attached updated resolution must be approved by City Council to authorize disclosure of SBOE or its successor agency CDTFA, confidential taxpayer information on behalf of the City.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Thomas W. Thornton, Public Works Director Cecilia Amezquita, Accounting Technician SUBJECT: ADDING MAY TOOLS TO THE VENDOR PROCUREMENT LIST AND APPROVING THE PURCHASE OF ELECTRONIC MESSAGE BOARDS IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $70,537.95 Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD AMENDING THE VENDOR PROCUREMENT LIST BY ADDING MAY TOOL IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $85,000, AND APPROVING THE PURCHASE OF ELECTRONIC MESSAGE BOARDS IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $70,537.95”. Background: The Lynwood Municipal Code (“LMC”) provides various procedures for the acquisition of supplies, equipment and routine services such as traffic signs, lighting supplies, janitorial supplies, paint, asphalt, etc. The City Council, from time to time, approves a list of vendors and purchasing limits for these vendors. Staff recommends amending the vendor list to add May Tools in the amount not to exceed $85,000. Staff also recommends the purchase of electronic message boards in the amount not to exceed $70,537.95 to accommodate the emergency purchase of the four electronic message boards. Discussion and Analysis: Section 6-3.7 of the Lynwood Municipal Code (LMC) includes various procedures for the procurement of supplies depending upon the dollar amount. Expenditures greater than $25,000 require a formal bidding process. However, Section 6-3.13 of the LMC provides exceptions for this provision, if the City Council shall find by resolution adopted by not less than four-fifths (4/5) of its members, that such an acquisition may be economically, and efficiently effected through the use of an alternate procedure. City Council Regular Meeting - Page 122 of 167 From time-to-time during the fiscal year, staff will compare prices from vendors to ensure reasonable pricing is provided to the City. At times, staff will order supplies, equipment, or routine services from a vendor such as Home Depot, Grainger, Waterline, etc., and these orders in aggregate will exceed $25,000 in a given year. Acquisition of supplies, equipment and routine services such as traffic signs, lighting supplies, janitorial supplies, paint, asphalt, etc. can be acquired more economically and efficiently through purchase order acquisitions than a formal bid process. A formal bid process may delay the acquisition of goods and services. Some of the vendors, although on the list, may not be used, depending on the current level of work and price quotes. The level of use of each vendor on the list is also limited by the budget adopted by the City Council. A Vendor Procurement List was established listing vendors allowed to exceed the $25,000 purchasing limit. This list over the years have been approved and amended by the City Council On May 18, 2021, the City Council amended the Vendor Procurement List (Resolution 2021.049). This list is operational until amended. Staff recommends adding May Tool in the amount not to exceed $85,000 to the Vendor Procurement List adopted by the City Council. Staff also recommends the approval of the purchase of Staff purchased four electronic message boards in the amount of $70,537.95 as an emergency purchase to be utilized by the Street Department to convey messages regarding traffic conditions. More recently there has been reported vehicular speeding and vehicles burning rubbers resulting in unsafe road conditions and damages to the roads. Staff has been renting electronic message boards at a rate of $4,000 a week to warn against these unsafe activities. When these rented boards are damaged or marked with graffiti, the City incurs additional cost for the damages. Staff made a decision to purchase these electronic boards instead of renting. These message boards will allow the Street Division the flexibility to place these boards on the road as needed at any time. Prior to the purchase of the message boards, the City was within the $25,000 expenditure limit with May Tools. With the purchase of the 4 message boards and expenditure to date with May Tools on other supplies, it was necessary to add May Tools to the Vendor Procurement List adopted by the City Council on May 18, 2021. Staff recommends that the City Council make the finding by not less than four-fifths (4/5) of its members that such that such an acquisition may be economically and efficiently effected through the use of an alternate procedure to the City’s bidding procedures for the procurement of goods and supplies. Here, the urgency of the acquisition of the electronic billboards to display messages near burn out and vehicular racing events satisfies the exception to the City’s bidding procedures as established by LMC Section 6-3.13. Fiscal Impact: No additional funding is needed with the recommended action.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Mark Flores, Director of Recreation and Community Services SUBJECT: LYNWOOD 5K RUN/WALK Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD AUTHORIZING THE LYNWOOD 5K RUN/WALK PROGRAM AND APPROVING A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED THE AMOUNT ESTIMATED FOR THE OPTION SELECTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL TO SUPPORT THE PROGRAM.” Background: The Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation (LPEF) is proposing to partner with the City of Lynwood to offer the Lynwood 5K Run/Walk event to take place on Saturday, May 21, 2022 on Lynwood city streets. The event aims to provide a significant community-building event that also raises funds to support educational scholarships and student support programs for Lynwood youth. Staff is requesting authority from the City Council to partner with the LPEF, appropriate funding in support of the event and to temporarily close designated streets and areas that will make up the final 5K course. Discussion and Analysis: The City of Lynwood has historically offered 5K program opportunities to Lynwood residents. The City partnered with St. Francis Medical Center (SFMC) on the famed Nun Run from 1984 through the early 1990s and a one- time revival of the Nun Run in 2010. Additionally, the City supported two 5K events in February (SFMC) and November of 2012. Most recently, the City supported the Lynwood Century Sheriff’s Station 5K events in 2013 and 2014. Running has traditionally been a sport that Lynwood youth have excelled at – with over 1,000 local youth participating each year in City-led track meets each Spring. Our community has a storied history of local young men and women going on to compete in the national youth-level, college-level and professional ranks. Mindful of the positive health impacts and the importance of running opportunities to the community, the City has City Council Regular Meeting - Page 126 of 167 long expressed interest in continuing to offer similar running events. However, due to the substantial personnel and budgetary resources needed to produce a large-scale 5K event, the City has been limited in its ability to produce new running events for the community to enjoy. The Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation (LPEF) is formally proposing to partner with the City of Lynwood to produce a community 5K Run/Walk on May 21, 2022. The event aims to bring a large-scale community-building event that raises funds for Lynwood student scholarships and academic support programs. A successful partnership with the LPEF is an excellent opportunity to re-start efforts to bring an on-going 5K event to our community, while saving the City the significant resources needed to self-produce an event. Event Partnership with the LPEF A partnership with the Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation (LPEF) involves: · LPEF will lead event planning efforts and be responsible for paying the ≈$14,000 organizer fee to the professional event production firm (Aztlan Athletics) and all event insurances. · The LPEF leads all event sponsorship development. As of the writing of this staff report, the LPEF has raised over $20,000 for the 2022 event, with more expected through the event date. · LPEF to process and collect all registrations and participant fees (all proceeds benefit LPEF scholarships and academic programs for Lynwood students) · The LPEF will be required to notify all businesses and residents along the requested race route. The notification is to be delivered at least two weeks prior to the race. · Community car raffle will highlight the post-race Health and Resource Fair. Requested City Support for 5K Event The LPEF event organizers have proposed two race routes (Option “A’ and “B”) to take place on parts of City streets and property. With both routes starting and ending on Bullis Road in front of Lynwood City Hall, both options have considerations for the City contributing costs towards three, key race production elements: 1. Sheriff support and enforcement of street closures 2. Materials and equipment rentals 3. City staff overtime Course Option “A” (Please refer to attached map “Option “A”.) Route “A”: · North on Bullis to MLK · MLK (@ Bullis Rd.) east to Atlantic – on south side of MLK · At Atlantic Ave., the route returns on MLK (westbound) on the north half of the street, back to Bullis Rd. · Once back at Bullis Rd., the race enters Lynwood City Park for one lap around the park and then back on to Bullis Road in front of the City Hall for the finish line. Estimate of City support for sheriff’s, rentals and staff overtime = $12,000 - $15,000 Key Option “A” Notes: 1. This route is less traditional, but accomplishes goal of minimizing City costs achieved with a less complicated route. 2. Potentially $3,000 - $6,000 less cost than Route Option “B” Course Option “B” (Please refer to attached map “Option “B”.) Route “B”: · One lap of Lynwood City Park to City Council Regular Meeting - Page 127 of 167 · South on Bullis to Lynwood High School (LHS) and then · One lap around LHS to · North on Bullis Rd. to · City Hall finish line Estimate of City support for sheriff’s, rentals and staff overtime = $18,000 - $21,000 Key Option “B” Note: 1. This route is a more traditional race route over city streets, but estimated to be more costly than the Option “A” route. Additional City Support: · Start/Finish event area: organize health and resource fair (partnership with BeSocial Productions), stage and local entertainment, DJ, etc. By supporting the proposed partnership, the City will be able to achieve the goal of hosting a professional 5K Run/Walk, while limiting impact to limited resources or having to suspend/delay other programs in order to focus on self-producing a 5K event. The long-term goal is to establish a self-supporting and recurring community 5K event. Should a partnership not be the desired option by the City, the LPEF and the Lynwood Unified School District will likely pursue the concept through the City’s Special Event permit process. Through adoption of the accompanying resolution, staff is recommending that City Council authorize staff to (a) partner with the LPEF to produce a 5K event based on Course Option “A”, (b) appropriate funding to support the production of the 5K event using estimated costs for Course Option “A”, (c) authorize staff to finalize and designate an appropriate race course on City streets and property based on Course Option “A” and (d) waive special event and facility use permit fees for this event. Fiscal Impact: Fiscal Impact ranges from $12,000 to $15,000 for Option “A” and $18,000 to $21,000 for Option “B”. Staff is recommending approval of an appropriation not to exceed $15,000 to support event Option “A” from the Unappropriated General Fund.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: March 15, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council APPROVED BY: Ernie Hernandez, City Manager PREPARED BY: Michael M. Blazenski, Interim Director of Finance & Administration SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2021-22 MID-YEAR FINANCIAL REVIEW Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council receive the file this staff report on the City’s Mid-Year Financial Review and adopt the attached resolution entitled, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD RECEIVING AND FILING THE FY 2021-22 MID-YEAR FINANCIAL REVIEW, APPROVING THE FY 2021-22 MID-YEAR BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS TO AMEND THE FY 2021-22 ADOPTED BUDGET HERETO ATTACHED AS SCHEDULE A”. Background: On July 20, 2021, the City Council adopted the FY 2021-22 budget and approved the FY 2022-23 budget. The Biennial FY 2021-23 budgets are the City’s financial operating plans that establishes the City’s goals, budget priorities, and desired service levels for the two fiscal years, as well as identifies the fiscal resources necessary to achieve them. The adopted budgets were based on certain assumptions and meeting expenditure and revenue projections. The Mid-Year Financial Review is presented to Council to provide an updated financial forecast for the current year. The FY 2021-22 Mid-Year Financial Review reports on the City’s fiscal performance through mid-year (July through December), comparing all revenues and expenditures incurred during the first two quarters of FY 2020-21 to the same period in FY 2021-22. The Mid-Year Financial Review also provides an updated FY 2021-22 Financial Forecast, as well as presents mid-year budget adjustments for Council’s consideration to amend the FY 2021-22 Budget. As customary, the Mid-Year Financial Review primarily focuses on the General Fund since this is the fund that supports traditional municipal services the City provides for residents, such as law enforcement, fire protection, public works services, parks, and recreation. Discussion and Analysis: City Council Regular Meeting - Page 136 of 167 FY 2020-21 Year End At the end of each fiscal year, the Finance Department begins its process of closing out the year. This process includes trueing up the budget, ensuring all capital improvement project carryovers are processed and reflected in the new fiscal year. In addition, to avoid possible budget inflation, at the year end of each fiscal year, all purchase orders and encumbrances are closed out, excluding multi-year capital projects. Once the City’s budget is adopted and committed in the City’s Financial system, the new fiscal year is open for activity. Staff city-wide has the ability to review the general ledger, enter requisition for services, and track department revenues and expenditures. FY 2020-21 General Fund Year-End Performance The FY 2020-21 General Fund Budget included expenditures in the amount of $38.3 million offset by $38.7 million in projected revenues and thus increase of $450,712 in reserves. Based on the audited figures for FY 2020-21, the City ended the year with $36.1 million in expenditures, offset by $41.3 million in revenue and an increase of $5.2 million in the unassigned fund balance. The FY 2020-21 ending fund balance is $10.7 million. Revenues exceeded the budgeted amount by approximately $2.5 million. This is a result of Sales Tax and Sales Tax PS each exceeding its budget by approximately $1 million dollars. The remaining excess of budget is collecting approximately $500,000 in property taxes. Expenditures were under budget by approximately $2.1 million. This is the result of each department category under spending their budgeted amounts. TABLE 1 FY 21 GENERAL FUND YEAR-END PERFORMANCE FY 21 Revised Budget FY 21 Year-End (Audited) Beginning Fund Balance $5,529,106 $5,529,106 Revenues $38,701,866 $41,297,697 Expenditures ($38,251,154)($36,123,030) Operating Surplus (Deficit)$450,712 $5,174,667 Ending Fund Balance $5,979,818 $10,703,773 Revenue and expenditure figures include transfers in/out. FY 2021-22 Changes from Original Approved Budget to Revised Budget: When staff presented the Biennial FY 2021-23 budgets to Council for consideration in July 2021, the economy was improving and staff did not for see a drastic shift in the City’s fiscal standing. Since the Covid-19 pandemic hit, the City has taken considerable measures to ensure the City would be able to provide services based on the new level of revenues. The table below reflects the FY 2021-22 General Fund Approved and Revised budgets. TABLE 2 FY 2021-22 GENERAL FUND BUDGET FY 22 Approved Budget FY 22 Revised Budget Beginning Fund Balance $6,253,309 $10,703,773 Revenues $38,044,359 $38,146,043 Expenditures ($39,403,060)($39,637,527) Operating Surplus (Deficit)($1,358,698)($1,491,484) Ending Fund Balance $4,894,611 $9,212,289 During the current fiscal year, the City has made very few changes to the original approved FY 2021-22 budget. City Council Regular Meeting - Page 137 of 167 Revenues have been increased by $101,684 and expenditure increases approved amounted to $234,467. At the completion of the prior fiscal year it was anticipated that the beginning General Fund balance would $6,253,309; however, the actual ending General Fund balance was $10,703,773 both from higher than expected revenues and lower expenditures than budgeted.

City Council Regular Meeting - Page 138 of 167 FY 2021-22 Mid-Year Revenue Performance: Outlined below is a summary of the revenue performance for the City’s major revenues. Property Tax – Through the mid-year point in FY 2021-22 only 12% of the total budgeted had been collected. As is the case each year, Property tax revenue is basically received in the second half of the year. Two major components make up this revenue item. Secured Property Taxes and Property Tax in Lieu of VLF. In respect to Secured Property Taxes, the City received its first Property Tax installment in December. The County Auditor’s report indicated that the City should receive approximately the amount in the City’s current year budget. Note, the City received its Property Tax in Lieu of VLF of $4,470,530 in January. This is payment is not reflected in the December revenues. For FY 2021-22, it was anticipated that the City would receive $8,425,474 in revenue. The City is projected to receive $8,955,060, which is an increase of $529,586 and this increase is reflected in the budget update request. Revenue budget increase $529,586. Sales Taxes –Sales taxes are the City’s second largest revenue stream. The majority of the City’s sales taxes, revenues are received in March, three months subsequent to the December holiday sales. For FY 2021-22, the City budgeted $11,985,000 for Sales Tax revenues. Of the $11,985,000, $6,441,000 was projected for the Measure PS Use Tax revenue. However, we are updating this projection based on forecast data received from the City’s sales tax consultant. We are increasing the Bradley Burns 1% Local Sales and Use Tax estimate by $600,000 and the Measure PS Sales Tax estimate by $600,000, based on projections from our sales tax consultant. Revenue budget increase for Sales Tax $600,000 and Sales Tax PS $600,000. UUT –It is expected that collections will be the amount budgeted. Business License & Permits – Business License & Permits are up from FY 2020-21. This is the result of renewed business and building activity after a pause that was caused by COVID19. Charges for Current Services – Charges for Current Services are up. This is the result of more services being used as the COVID19 recedes and more activities and services are being performed and contracted for. Fines, Forfeits, & Penalties –Collections in this category are greater than the 50% of the budget and it is expected that the budgeted amount will be collected in the category. Other Tax & Assessments – Other Tax & Assessments are up from the prior year. While this category is up at the midyear; the majority of the revenue is collected in April and May when Franchise taxes are due. Other Revenues –These revenues are generated with the various sources and much of these collections are done in the second half of the year. The City’s revenues, specifically within General Fund, were impacted by the current COVID-19 pandemic. As the pandemic has proceeded, the area has seen a return to a more normal way of life and the revenues reflect this. FY 2021-22 Mid-Year Expenditure Performance: A review of each of the departments’ expenditures incurred and encumbered, to date, indicates that each department has expended or is expected to expend at or less than the budgeted amount for spending in the current fiscal year. This continues the fiscal responsibility shown last year. Below are a few minor requests for budget adjustments. A couple of the adjustments are caused by conditions changing after the budget was approved. This includes the Animal Control contract and the use of an armored car services. FY 2021-22 Mid-Year Expenditure Budget Adjustments: Staff is presenting the following Mid-Year Budget Adjustments for Council’s consideration to amend the FY 2021-22 Budget for the General Fund. 1.

The new reserve level is above the minimum General Fund reserve level of 10% of the current-year operating budget.

Recovery Funds are intended to provide support to state local and tribal governments in responding to the impact of COVID-19 and in their efforts to contain COVID-19 on their communities, residents and businesses. The Lynwood City Council has determined that Recovery Funds awarded to Lynwood should be expended to support programs, partnerships and projects that will speed up the City’s recovery from the economic and health effects of the Coronavirus pandemic while providing the broadest possible community benefit including infrastructure improvements that support economic recovery and local business revitalizations. Discussion and Analysis: Commercial areas are a high priority for the City and require community investment to support public safety and enhance the general customer experience. Utilizing the $830,000 appropriated for Economic Development under the City’s adopted ARPA plan, staff is proposing a Commercial Façade Grant Program to assist business City Council Regular Meeting - Page 146 of 167 property owners in the hardest hit commercial areas of the City. The proposed grant program would establish the Business Beautification/Façade Improvement Plan to issue grants of up to $10,000 to approximately 75 businesses and retain an advisor to assist in program promotion and implementation. The advisor will be retained at a future date following the City's procurement procedures. The funds would support basic repairs, façade improvements and beautification of high-need commercial corridors in the City affected by COVID-19 closures and other safety or quality of life impacts. The amount of the individual grant is limited in order to provide the greatest flexibility to implement the program immediately and not cause increased construction costs based on the limited size of the grants. The program intent is to focus on property and businesses that are generally single units and not chains, provide retail services and products to the general public and in full compliance with all city ordinances. Excluded from the program are any national brand companies/retailers/personal service providers. Property owners and tenants must mutually agree to the grant and identified façade enhancement; tenants must have a minimum of three (3) years remaining on their lease.

The current Los Angeles County DA George Gascon was elected as part of the November 4, 2020, General Election, capturing 54% of the vote and defeating incumbent DA Jackie Lacey. Discussion and Analysis: Since taking office, DA Gascon has implemented a series of criminal justice reforms via special directives. Over the last year, approximately 32 cities in Los Angeles County have considered and adopted a resolution of "No Confidence" in the performance of Los Angeles County DA George Gascon. Those cities include Downey, Cerritos, San Gabriel, Santa Clarita, Beverly Hills, Pico Rivera, Whittier, La Mirada, Covina, Rosemead, Azusa, Santa Fe Springs, Diamond Bar, Redondo Beach, Arcadia, Manhattan Beach, Temple City, Palos Verdes Estates, Lancaster and South Gate. Many of the concerns arise from the various Office Directives which have been implemented by DA Gascon. Some of those directives include: Special Directive 20-08 Sentencing Enhancement/Allegations - bars the use of prior strikes; use of gang City Council Regular Meeting - Page 161 of 167 enhancement and firearm allegations. Special Directive 20-07 Misdemeanor Case Management - bars filings on Trespass; Disturbing the peace; Driving without a license; Under the influence of drugs; Minor in possession of alcohol; Drinking in public; Loitering/loitering for purposes of prostitution' Resisting arrest; and Criminal threats.
