AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE:October 17, 2023
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
APPROVED BY:Ernie Hernandez, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Gabriel Linares, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:10 MONTH 15 DAY EXTENSION OF THE MORATORIUM ON THE
ESTABLISHMENT, EXPANSION, OR MODIFICATION OF WAREHOUSE
AND TRUCKING USES AND RELATED USES WITHIN THE CITY OF
LYNWOOD.
Agenda Item # 8.1.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve, by four-fifths (4/5) vote, an extension of 10
months and 15 days to the Moratorium on the Establishment, Expansion, or Modification of
Warehouse and Trucking Uses and Related Uses within the City of Lynwood adopted under
Urgency Ordinance No. 1758.
Background:
On September 19, 2024, the City Council for the City of Lynwood (“City Council”) adopted
Urgency Ordinance No. 1758 implementing a 45-day Moratorium on Warehouse and Trucking
Uses and related uses (“Moratorium”) in the City of Lynwood. The Moratorium would apply to
any applications for the establishment, expansion, or modification of Warehouse and Truck
Uses which have not been deemed complete as of September 12, 2023. The Moratorium was
adopted pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858 which allows for the
Moratorium to be extend by an additional 10 months and 15 days past the expiration date of
the initial 45-day Moratorium.
California Government Code Section 65858 allows for the initial 45-day Moratorium to be
extended for 10 months and 15 days by a 4/5th vote of the City Council after providing notice
City Council City Council Regular Meeting
7
and conducting a public hearing. The City must also issue a written report describing the
measures taken to alleviate the conditions which led to the adoption of the Moratorium at least
10 days prior to the expiration of the Moratorium period.
The current 45-day Moratorium on Warehouse and Trucking Uses is set to expire on
November 3, 2023 and on October 3, 2023, the City Council received and filed a report
regarding the measures the City’s Department of Development, Compliance and Enforcement
Services (“Community Development”) has taken regarding the Warehouse and Trucking Uses
pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858(d). On October 12, 2023 the
hearing was duly noticed in the Lynwood Press Wave. Staff has begun to study the impact of
Warehouse and Trucking Uses and exploring possible policies and regulations that could help
reduce the impacts of such uses on the health, safety and welfare, but believes that additional
time is required to complete its analysis and recommendations. In addition to the current
proposed 10 month and 15 day extension, the City may further extend the Moratorium for an
additional year pursuant to Government Code Section 65858(a).
Discussion and Analysis:
The purpose of Urgency Ordinance No.1758 is to provide Community Development staff
additional time to analyze the feasibility of potential development standards, truck routes and
weight limits, and to address possible impacts to the public health, safety and welfare of the
community. The intent of the interim development standards is to preserve the community
character within the City consistent with the City’s General Plan.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65858(d), the ten (10) day written report (“Report”)
describing the measures taken to alleviate the conditions which led to the adoption of the
Urgency Ordinance was filed with the City on October 3, 2023. The Report outlined the
following activities undertaken by Community Development since the initial adoption of the
Moratorium to alleviate the impacts of Warehouse and Trucking Uses:
1. Analyzing all impacts of Warehouse and Trucking Uses and related uses including the
detrimental effects of traffic, noise and queuing of vehicles.
2. Creating a list of all types of Warehouse and Trucking Uses and related uses in the City
of Lynwood including any entitlements processed and if the Warehouse and Trucking
Use facility operators are meeting the conditions of approval.
3. Conducting studies regarding a potential revision to the City’s designated Truck Traffic
Route and a possible Truck Fee assessment.
City Council City Council Regular Meeting 8
4. Conducting a study of potential impact fees and a City-wide fee analysis including a
truck impact fee.
5. Creating a list of interested parties that have or have the potential to submit an
application.
6. Meeting with staff from the City’s Building & Safety and Public Safety Divisions to review
the impacts of the interim Urgency Ordinance and future potential development
standards.
7. Soliciting proposals from qualified consultants to advise the City on potential Warehouse
and Trucking Uses development standards and municipal code amendments.
8. Creating a handout to educate potential developers on possible new development
standards that may mitigate impacts of Warehouse and Trucking Uses to facilitate the
approval process.
9. Reviewing regulations in surrounding cities to determine adopted codes and the impacts
into their respective communities.
10. Study the impacts of Warehouse and Trucking Uses in certain zones specifically
commercial versus industrial zones where traffic circulation impacts may be minimized.
The extension includes a modification of the Moratorium to clarify that the Moratorium shall not
prohibit any of the following:
1. The annual renewal of an existing business License, any permits necessary for the
routine maintenance or repair of a building or site, or any permit necessary for required
repairs due to an emergency or to protect the public health, safety, and welfare.
2. Tenant improvements within an existing building, provided the tenant improvements
would not otherwise be considered an expansion or intensification of the building or use
as determined by the Director of Community Development.
3. Any new or renewed lease agreement that does not conflict with the intent of the
Urgency Ordinance.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65858(a), Community Development staff requires
City Council City Council Regular Meeting 9
Urgency Ordinance - 10M15D Extension of Moratorium on Warehouse and Trucking
Uses v.2 (002).docx
additional time to study the impacts of the increase in Warehouse and Trucking Uses and the
applicability of the Moratorium to protect the community from adverse impacts. Additional time
is also required to take the potential development standards to the Planning Commission for a
recommendation to the City Council and to garner public input on the interim and potential
future development standards.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve, by four-fifths (4/5) vote, an extension of 10
months and 15 days to the Moratorium on the Establishment, Expansion, or Modification of
Warehouse and Trucking Uses and Related Uses within the City of Lynwood adopted under
Urgency Ordinance No.1758.

ORDINANCE NO. 1758
URGENCY ORDINANCE 1758 OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF LYNWOOD, COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES,
STATE OF CALIFORNIA EXTENDING FOR 10 MONTHS 15
DAYS THE MORATORIUM ON THE ESTABLISHMENT,
EXPANSION, OR MODIFICATION OF WAREHOUSE AND
TRUCKING USES AND RELATED USES WITHIN THE CITY
OF LYNWOOD
WHEREAS, Government Code Section 65858 expressly authorizes a general law
city, in order to protect public health, safety, and welfare, to adopt an interim urgency
ordinance prohibiting a use that is in conflict with a contemplated general plan, specific
plan, or zoning proposal that its legislative body, planning commission, or planning
department is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable time,
provided that the urgency measure is adopted by a four-fifths vote of the legislative body,
and have no further force and effect 45 days from its adoption, unless thereafter duly
extended by further legislative action; and
WHEREAS, Government Code Section 36937(b) expressly authorizes the City
Council to enact urgency ordinances, which take effect immediately upon introduction,
for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, containing a
declaration of the facts constituting the urgency, and which must be passed by a four-
fifths vote of the City Council; and
WHEREAS, the City of Lynwood (“City”) has continuing concerns regarding a
potential increase in commercial manufacturing/industrial uses within neighboring
communities due to the growing economy and lack of vacant, developable land,
particularly warehouses, distribution centers, and truck storage facilities (collectively
“Warehouse and Trucking Use(s)”), which include any use for the conduct, business, or
management of warehousing, storing, freight forwarding, handling, parking, carrier
leasing, keeping inventory, distribution activities and/or transporting of any shipping
containers and/or trailers; and
WHEREAS, the United States Environmental Protection Agency(“EPA”), in a 2014
Frequently Asked Questions sheet (EPA-420-F-14-044) (“EPA FAQ”) notes that “[P]eople
who live, work, or attend school near major roads appear to have an increased incidence
and severity of health problems that may be related to air pollution from roadway traffic.
Health effects that have been associated with proximity to roads include asthma onset
and aggravation, cardiovascular disease, reduced lung function, impaired lung
development in children, pre-term and low-birthweight infants, childhood leukemia, and
premature death. Other than air pollution, road noise may also play a role in the health
problems associated with roadway exposure”; and
WHEREAS, the California Department of Justice’s (“CA DOJ”) 2022 update to its
”Warehouse Projects: Best Practices and Mitigation Measures to Comply with the
California Environmental Quality Act” notes that:
“Emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases are often among the most
substantial environmental impacts from new warehouse facilities” (Section V, pg.
7); and
“The noise associated with logistics facilities can be among their most intrusive
impacts to nearby sensitive receptors. Various sources, such as unloading activity,
diesel truck movement, and rooftop air conditioning units, can contribute
substantial noise pollution. These impacts are exacerbated by logistics facilities’
typical 24-hour, seven-days-per-week operation” (Section VI, pg. 10); and
“Warehouse facilities inevitably bring truck and passenger car traffic. Truck traffic
can present substantial safety issues. Collisions with heavy-duty trucks are
especially dangerous for passenger cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
These concerns can be even greater if truck traffic passes through residential
11
areas, school zones, or other places where pedestrians are common and extra
caution is warranted” (Section VII, pg. 11); and
WHEREAS, with the lack of available industrial warehouse storage space in the
region, the City has experienced an increase in Warehouse and Trucking Uses, and the
residents and businesses within the City have faced an increase of truck traffic, resulting
in the following current and immediate threats to the public health, safety, and welfare of
its citizens:
Increased safety risk for smaller vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists;
Damage to City streets, streetlights, traffic signal equipment, signs, trees, curbs,
medians, etc.;
Traffic congestion and reduced levels of service on streets and at intersections;
Increase in air pollution, noise, and vibrations when travelling on the roadways next
to residential areas and educational uses; and
WHEREAS,on September 19, 2023 the City adopted Urgency Ordinance No.
1758 implementing a forty-five (45) moratorium on Warehouse and Trucking Uses and
related uses (“Moratorium”) for any application which had not been deemed complete
as of September 12, 2023 to study existing Warehouse and Trucking Use regulations
and developments to determine the potential adverse impacts on the environment, and
develop policies, guidelines and regulations related to such uses; and
WHEREAS, the City needs additional time to study and develop policy guidance
to ensure there is a logical relationship between the placement of Warehouse and
Trucking Uses and available truck routes to avoid the deleterious effects of routing trucks
past sensitive uses; update the Lynwood Municipal Code to further address the potential
side effects of Warehouse and Trucking Uses to ensure that they are properly regulated
within the City; address truck yards, and associated buildings, queuing, stacking, loading,
unloading and parking of trucks; and study existing Warehouse and Trucking Use
regulations and developments to determine the potential adverse impacts on the
environment, traffic, aesthetics, and visual quality of properties within the City, and to
make recommendations on appropriate alternative regulations for Warehouse and
Trucking Uses within the City; and
WHEREAS,the expiration of the Moratorium on November 3, 2023 would result
in the continuing threat to public health, safety, or welfare, and by extending the
Moratorium, City can continue to mitigate the threat of health and safety caused by
Warehouse and Trucking Uses until the City can implement the proper controls to
mitigate any negative or harmful effects associated with such uses; and
WHEREAS, on October 3, 2023, the City Council receive and filed a report a
report per Government Code Section 65858(d) describing the measures taken to
alleviate the condition which led to the adoption of the Moratorium; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to the extend the Moratorium pursuant to the notice
and hearing requirements of Government Code Section 65858(a); and
WHEREAS, on October 12, 2023 a public notice was published in the Lynwood
Press Wave describing the City’s intent to extend the existing Moratorium, and the duly
notice public hearing was held on October 17, 2023; and
WHEREAS, if adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 1758 will be in effect for an
additional 10 months 15 days and shall expire on September 18, 2024 unless further
extended.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of Lynwood as
follows:
SECTION 1: The facts set forth in the recitals of this Urgency Ordinance are true
and correct, and incorporated into this Urgency Ordinance as substantive findings.
SECTION 2:Urgency Ordinance No. 1758 was adopted as an interim urgency
measure pursuant to Government Code Section 65858 for the immediate preservation of
the public health, safety, and welfare, and is adopted and justified based on the findings
12
of the City Council described in the recitals, agenda report and exhibits, and findings of
Urgency Ordinance No. 1758, which are hereby incorporated herein as the City’s findings.
SECTION 3: Facts Constituting Urgency. Based on the facts included in the
above recitals and agenda staff report associated with this Urgency Ordinance No.
1758, the City Council finds that the adoption of this Urgency Ordinance extending the
Moratorium on the establishment, expansion, or modification of Warehouse and
Trucking Uses, and related uses for and additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15)
days is necessary to protect the public safety, health, and welfare of the general public.
The EPA and CA DOJ have both noted the severe potential impacts an increase in
Warehouses and Trucking uses can have on the volume of traffic and the potential
environmental and health impacts associate with such increases in traffic. Such
impacts are a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare of
the community and the extension of the Moratorium on the establishment, expansion,
or modification of Warehouse and Trucking Uses, and related uses within the City of
Lynwood is necessary to mitigate such threats to the community’s health, safety and
welfare.
SECTION 4:The City Council finds that the continued growth of Warehouse and
Trucking Uses and related uses in the City may be in conflict with the City’s General Plan
in the following manner:
Circulation Plan Policy CIR-1.3 to “preserve the quality of residential
neighborhoods by…discouraging the flow of truck traffic and through traffic in these
areas” including Implementation Measure 7.0 requiring that new developments be
adequately served by road of adequate design standards and capacity to provide
reasonable access by car, truck, transit, or bicycle, and Implementation Measure
14.0 establish and enforce weight restrictions where necessary on routes
traversing through residential neighborhoods; and
Noise Plan Policy NOI-1.1 to prohibit the development of new commercial,
industrial, or other noise-generating land uses adjacent to existing residential uses
and sensitive noise receptors exceeding 65 dBA.
Air Quality Plan Policy AQ-1.1 to ensure to the extent practical that air
quality mitigation measures are incorporated into residential, commercial and
industrial projects, including Implementation Measure 2.0 to use low emission
vehicles and reschedule truck deliveries to off peak hours.
SECTION 5: Effective immediately upon the adoption of this Urgency Ordinance No.
1758, the Moratorium shall be extended for an additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15)
days, and the City shall not approve the establishment, expansion, or modification of
Warehouse and Trucking Uses and related uses within the City of Lynwood for any
application which has not been deemed complete as of September 12, 2023.
SECTION 6: Definitions and Moratorium.
A.Definitions. For the purpose of this Urgency Ordinance:
“Warehouse and Trucking Uses” shall mean Warehouses, distribution centers,
distribution plants, Trucking Storage Facilities and shall include any related use
for the conduct, business, or management of warehousing, storing, freight
forwarding, handling, parking, carrier leasing, keeping inventory, distribution
activities and/or transporting of any shipping containers and/or trailers.
“Warehouses” shall mean any use for the conduct, business, or management
of warehousing, storing, safekeeping, freight forwarding, handling, keeping
inventory, and/or distribution activities for any product or component, including
but not limited to goods, wares, consumer products, materials, or merchandise,
partially or wholly within an enclosed space, building, or other structure.
“Trucking Storage Facilities” shall mean any use for the conduct, business or
management of storing, placing, temporary parking, carrier leasing, and/or
transporting of any shipping containers and/or trailers.
13
B.Moratorium. The 45-day moratorium established by Urgency Ordinance No.
1758 is hereby extended by an additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15)
prohibiting the approval of any application for the establishment, expansion, or
modification of Warehouse and Trucking Uses, and related uses within the City
of Lynwood for any application which has not been deemed complete as of
September 12, 2023.
C.Exceptions. The Moratorium shall not prohibit any of the following:
1. The annual renewal of an existing business license, any permits necessary
for the routine maintenance or repair of a building or site, or any permit
necessary for required repairs due to an emergency or to protect the public
health, safety, and welfare.
2. Tenant improvements within an existing building, provided the tenant
improvements would not otherwise be considered an expansion or
intensification of the building or use as determined by the Director of
Community Development.
3. Any new or renewed lease agreement that does not conflict with the intent of
this Urgency Ordinance.
SECTION 7:Authority. This Urgency Ordinance is enacted pursuant to Government
Code Sections 65858 and 36937, the City of Lynwood’s general police powers, and Article
XI of the California Constitution.
SECTION 8:CEQA. Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this Urgency Ordinance is an organizational or administrative
activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment,
and therefore not a project. Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3),
this Urgency Ordinance is exempt from CEQA review because there is no possibility that the
Moratorium may have a significant effect on the environment, insofar as it prohibits the
construction of or alterations to, truck parking or logistics facilities within the City.
Furthermore, even if the Urgency Ordinance is considered a project, the proposed
moratorium is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15308, because it is
clear that the Moratorium will not create an environmental impact and the action will assure
the maintenance, enhancement, or protection of the environment through the eventual
adoption of regulations and development standards on truck parking or logistics facilities.
Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.
SECTION 9:Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence clause or phrase or
word of this Urgency Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a
decision of any court of competent jurisdiction or preempted by state legislation, such
decision or legislation shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Urgency
Ordinance. The City Council declares that it would have passed this Urgency Ordinance and
each and every section, subsection, sentence clause or phrase or word not declared invalid
or unconstitutional without regard to any such decision or preemptive legislation.
SECTION 10:Effective Date. This Urgency Ordinance shall become effective
immediately upon adoption by a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the City Council pursuant to California
Government Code Sections 36937(b) and 65858(a) and shall be in effect for an additional
ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days, unless earlier terminated or extended by the City
Council as permitted by law.
SECTION 11:Adoption. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Urgency
Ordinance and cause the same to be published or posted according to law.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 17th day of October, 2023.

APPROVAL TO AMEND THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH MKN & ASSOCIATES FOR ADDITIONAL SCOPE OF WORK TO
COMPLETE THE DESIGN OF THE RESERVOIR AND BOOSTER PUMP
STATION AND REDUCE THE FUND BALANCE OF CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CIP) 4011.67.894 WELL #22
Agenda Item # 9.3.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD APPROVING AN
AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH MKN &
ASSOCIATES FOR ADDITIONAL SCOPE OF WORK TO COMPLETE THE DESIGN OF THE
RESERVOIR AND BOOSTER PUMP STATION (CIP 4011.67.056) FOR A NOT TO EXCEED
AMOUNT OF $100,000.00; AND APPROVING A BUDGETARY TRANSFER OF $100,000
FROM CIP NO. 4011.67.894, WATER WELL 22 TO CIP 4011.67.056”
Background:
On December 2, 2019, the City completed a study titled “Final Reservoir and Booster Study
for the City of Lynwood” prepared by Water Systems Consulting, Inc. The study identified
initial recommendations to include a storage reservoir and booster station at the City owned
Burke-Ham Park.
Discussion and Analysis:
City Council City Council Regular Meeting 63
On September 20, 2022, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement to MKN &
Associates to provide following work:
Part 1: Preliminary Design Report for Reservoir and Booster Station – Consultant will
recommend the appropriate reservoir capacity, material type, and booster pump design.
Part 2: Design Plans and Bid Documents – Consultant will prepare final design plans and
bidding specifications package, which will contain an engineering cost estimate of probable
construction costs related to the Water Reservoir and Booster Pump Station.
Part 3: Environmental/Permitting Support – Consultant will prepare environmental and permit
related documents/applications for overall project construction (local, state, and federal
requirements).
MKN & Associates completed the Preliminary Design Report for the Reservoir and Booster
station and recommended a change from a 3 Million Gallon Tank to a 2 Million Gallon Tank.
This will reduce overall construction costs, risks, and reduce the space needed for the project
at Burke- Ham Park.
MKN & Associates provided a proposal to perform additional design and environmental
services related to the Burke-Ham Park Reservoir and Pump Station Project. The services
provided in this amendment were identified in coordination with City staff and will be
completed in conjunction with final design services (60% Design).
Additional Scope of Work requested:
Project Management – Duration Extension (6 months)
Extension to complete design and provide assistance through
the bid to notice for construction.
$12,594
Geotechnical Investigation – Cone Penetrometer Tests
Increased depth sampling to determine seismic tolerance limits.$ 7,480
Design Modifications – Tank Size Modification/PS Modification
Recommended reduction from 3MG to 2MG will reduce construction
costs by an estimated $1.6M

Scope of Work
Task 1.4 – Project Management
The original contract was awarded with a contract start date of October 17th, 2022. The project
management budget was prepared with a stated assumption of 10 months, which equated to August
2023. To ensure adequate input from all City departments and additional time to implement project
optimizations, the project is not anticipated to be completed until March 2024. This scope includes budget
for the additional six months. The per month effort is consistent with the original contract.

Task 2.2 – Geotechnical Investigation
As part of Lynwood Reservoir and Pump Station Task Group 2.2: Geotechnical Investigation, MKN’s
subconsultant Cotton, Shires & Associates (CSA) will be performing two to three hollow-stem-auger
borings in the proposed reservoir and pump station locations. As part of the data request for the project,
MKN recently received the 2007 Geotechnical Report for Ham Park prepared by Converse Consultants.
Based on the review of CSA and the project structural engineers (Peterson Structural Engineers, PSE), it
has been determined that the seismically-induced settlement due to liquefaction of soils below the
reservoir and pump station may exceed tolerable limits for differential settlement provided by PSE. At
this time, CSA has proposed the addition of CPTs to depths of 60 feet within the proposed improvement
areas in order to better assess liquefaction in order to provide evaluation, recommendations, and ground
improvement alternatives (if necessary) as part of the geotechnical report being prepared as part of this
project.
CPTs will be beneficial for this project because they are able to provide a continuous soil profile and
observe thinner soil layers that may not be observable with a boring, allowing for a refined analysis of
seismically-induced hazards. CPTs are the industry standard for evaluation of problematic seismically-
induced settlement and are extremely useful in evaluating potential ground improvement alternatives.
Performance of CPTs has the potential to provide construction cost savings by reducing or avoiding the
need for ground improvement or conservative foundation design that may otherwise be necessary
based on the boring data and analysis alone. The potential for construction cost savings is substantial
compared to the costs of CPTs.
• Advancing three Cone Penetrometer Tests to depths of 60 feet within the proposed improvement
areas. CPTs are performed by hydraulically pushing an instrumented 1.4‐inch‐diameter cone‐
tipped probe into the ground at a constant rate. Electrical transducers measure tip resistance and
sleeve friction near‐continuously (every 2 cm) during the sounding, and the data are recorded in
the field with a computer.
• Data will be processed and correlated to provide engineering information (e.g. soil classification
and shear strength) and will be correlated with the information from the borings.
Deliverables:
• Data from CPTs will be incorporated into the geotechnical report.
Task 2.5 – Modify Reservoir Size/ Pump Station Modifications
The Reservoir and Booster Study (WSC, 2019) included in Section 5.4 Recommendations that, “A 2.00 MG
to 3.00 MG reservoir and an additional 2,600 gpm of pumping capacity would sufficiently meet the City’s
goals for the project…”. The focus of MKN’s Preliminary Design Report (PDR) and 30% design was to
maximize capacity of the project which included a 3 MG reservoir. Based on the results of the cost
estimate, the City has selected to reduce the reservoir to 2 MG which will reduce construction cost by an
estimated $1.6M (based on original WSC estimates). The reduction also provides additional benefits
including reduced impact during construction and reduced traffic impacts due to a reduction in truck trips.

PS_Amendment No. 1_September 2023.docx
In addition, MKN received comments during 60 percent development to shift the configuration of the
pumps within the pump station, which resulted in the relocation of the electrical room. In addition, the
potable water connection was shifted due to a lack of information regarding the existing cross park
pipeline. Both modifications required updates to multiple construction sheets during preparation of the
60 percent deliverable.
Assumptions
• No change to reservoir depth. The earth pressure and static/seismic settlement estimates are
predicated mostly on the tank bottom elevation. MKN assumes that the depth of the reservoir
will not be changed from the 30% design. A change in depth may require an update to the
geotechnical report.
• The following sections of the DRAFT PDR will be updated: Section 1 – Introduction, Section 2 –
Reservoir Design Criteria and Section 8 – Cost Estimate
• Appendix D – 30% Design Drawings
a. Remove D-001, C-102, C-103, M-206, M-207, M-208 (these will be updated at 60%)
b. Update G-004, D-001, C-101, C-104, C-105, M-501 (6 total sheets)
c. No change to structural sheets for Final PDR
Deliverables: Final PDR and 30% Design (PDF)
Task 3.3 CEQA-Plus Technical Studies
Our current scope of work for Task 3 includes completion of a biological resources field survey and a
desktop review of cultural resources impacts with the results to be included in a Class 32 Categorical
Exemption report for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). However, we
anticipate the SWRCB will require submittal of two standalone technical studies - a Biological Resources
Assessment (BRA) and a Historic Properties Inventory Report (HPIR) - as part of the project’s DWSRF
application package to meet the “CEQA-Plus” requirements of this funding program. The following tasks
outline the additional scope of work necessary to prepare these technical studies.
Task 3.3.1 Biological Resources Assessment
Per guidance from the SWRCB, a stand-alone BRA is required as part of the CEQA-Plus documentation
in support of the DWSRF funding pursuit. Rincon will perform a desktop literature review to gather
information regarding biological resources present in the project area and a field reconnaissance
survey to document existing biological conditions within the project area in accordance with our
current scope of work for Task 3.
Under Task 3.3.1, Rincon will present the findings of the literature review/database research and field
reconnaissance survey results in a BRA report. The report will include documentation for federal
regulations to meet CEQA-Plus requirements, including, as applicable, identification of impacts to
federally listed species and federal Clean Water Act Section 404 wetlands and waters. The BRA report
will also include a discussion of the applicability of and project consistency with applicable federal
Executive Orders regarding wetlands and floodplain management as well as the Coastal Zone
Management Act and wild/scenic rivers in compliance with CEQA-Plus requirements.

PS_Amendment No. 1_September 2023.docx
• The BRA is intended to support the preparation of CEQA-Plus environmental documentation.
• The Area of Potential Effects (APE) will be limited to the construction footprint.
• A brief discussion of jurisdictional waters, and not a full jurisdictional delineation, will be required
• No meetings with the City or other regulatory agencies related to biological resources
are anticipated to be necessary and, as such, are not included in this scope of work.
• Rincon will address one round of consolidated comments from MKN and one round of
consolidated comments from the City, each to be provided in electronic, editable format. We
assume that revisions based on comments will be minor and will not require substantive changes.
• The BRA will be submitted in electronic format; no hard copies will be provided.
Task 3.3.2 Historic Properties Inventory Report
The Historic Property Identification Report (HPIR) will comply with the CEQA and federal cross-cutting
requirements detailed on the SWRCB website with regard to Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (Section 106). Issuance of DWSRF funds by the SWRCB is considered equivalent to a
federal action, thereby necessitating compliance with Section 106. To ensure confidentiality, the HPIR
will be submitted to SWRCB cultural resources staff and not through the SWRCB Financial Assistance
Applications Submittal Tool.
Rincon will conduct a California Historical Resources Information System records search of the project
APE and a 0.5-mile radius as well as a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and will contact the Native
American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to request a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and a list of Native
American contacts as part of our current scope of work under Task 3.
Under Task 3.3.2, the following tasks will be completed in preparation of the HPIR:
• Delineation of the APE. Rincon will prepare an APE map for the project, which will be limited to
areas of direct project construction because the project does not appear to have to potential
to affect the surrounding environment from a cultural resources perspective.
• Native American Consultation Support. In support of SWRCB’s compliance with Section 106,
Rincon will conduct outreach to local Native American individuals and groups who may have
knowledge of, or concern with, cultural resources in the APE’s vicinity. Rincon will solicit additional
information pertaining to the Native American sensitivity of the project site from the Native
American contacts provided by the NAHC. Rincon will prepare and mail/email letters to each of the
NAHC-listed contacts to inquire as to whether they are aware of any Native American cultural
resources within or immediately adjacent to the project APE. Rincon will allow two weeks for
review, then follow-up with each contact by telephone and/or email. A maximum of two
telephone calls will be made to each of the contacts to document “good-faith” efforts to follow-
up and the results will be documented in a communications log. Pursuant to SWRCB HPIR
preparation guidance, the tribal outreach appendix, including the NAHC correspondence, tribal
outreach, and correspondence and communications log, will be appended to the HPIR.
This outreach does not constitute formal Assembly Bill 52 consultation as required by CEQA,
which we assume will not be required because the City is planning to utilize a Class 32
Categorical Exemption for the project to achieve compliance with CEQA.

PS_Amendment No. 1_September 2023.docx
• Local Interested Party Consultation Support. In support of SWRCB’s compliance with Section 106,
Rincon will contact individuals and organizations who may have knowledge of, or concerns with,
potential historic properties in the APE’s vicinity. This effort may include inquiries to local
governments and local historical societies regarding their knowledge of historic properties in
the immediate vicinity of the APE. Rincon will allow two weeks for review, then follow -up with
each contact by telephone. A maximum of two telephone calls will be made to each of the
contacts to document “good-faith” efforts to follow-up.
• Cultural Resources Survey. Upon completion of the records search, a Rincon cultural resources
specialist will conduct a pedestrian survey using transects spaced at maximum intervals of five
meters over all exposed ground surface within the project APE. Transect accuracy will be
maintained through use of a hand-held global positioning system unit. Preliminary desktop
review of the project site indicates the City’s Yvonne Burke‐John D. Ham Park, in which the
project site is located, appears to have been established in the early 2000s based on a review of
aerial photographs. Therefore, this scope and cost assume that neither the park itself nor any
surrounding properties will require recordation and evaluation because they do not meet the
historic-age thresholds generally triggering the need for evaluation on California Department of
Parks and Recreation (DPR) Series 523 forms. Should cultural resources requiring recordation
and/or evaluation be identified by the proposed study, a scope amendment would be required.
• Historic Property Identification Report Preparation. Upon completion of the records search and
cultural resources survey, Rincon will prepare the HPIR. The HPIR will document the methods
and results of the study as well as provide management recommendations for identified historic
properties as appropriate. The HPIR will include figures depicting the APE and vicinity and will
discuss all topics identified in the HPIR guidelines. Pursuant to SWRCB HPIR preparation
guidance, the records search results will be appended to the HPIR.
Assumptions
• The HPIR is intended to support the preparation of CEQA-Plus environmental documentation.
• The APE will be limited to the direct construction footprint.
• The cultural resources field survey will be conducted over the course of one eight-hour field day,
including travel time, by one cultural resource specialist.
• No access issues will be encountered during the field survey, and access permission will be
provided in writing prior to fieldwork.
• No archaeological testing or excavation will be required.
• The study will be negative for historic properties with the potential to be affected by the proposed
project.
• No cultural resources will require recordation and evaluation.
• Rincon will address one round of consolidated comments from MKN and one round of
consolidated comments from the City, with each to be provided in an electronic, editable format.
• The HPIR will be submitted in electronic format; no hard copies will be provided.

In support of the DWSRF Environmental Package, Rincon will prepare an Environmental Justice Analysis
to evaluate the potential for the project to result in environmental justice impacts, pursuant to SWRCB
guidance. The analysis will characterize existing socioeconomic resources in the project site vicinity and
evaluate the potential for disproportionately high and adverse environmental impacts to minority, low-
income, and disadvantaged communities. The analysis will be presented in a standalone letter report.
Assumptions
• No disproportionately high and adverse environmental impacts to minority, low-income, and
disadvantaged communities will be identified.
• Rincon will address one round of consolidated comments from MKN and one round of
consolidated comments from the City, with each to be provided in an electronic, editable format.
• The Environmental Justice Analysis will be submitted in electronic format; no hard copies will be

Task 3.6 As-needed Support with DWSRF Environmental Package and SWRCB Coordination
Under this task, Rincon will provide up to eight hours of as-needed support for preparation and
processing of the DWSRF Environmental Package, which will include preparation of the Clean Air Act
General Conformity Applicability Analysis table and any additional support that may be required during
processing of the application package by SWRCB, such as providing additional materials that may be
requested during consultation efforts between SWRCB and United States Fish and Wildlife Service/State
Historic Preservation Officer, strategic advising on negotiating any recommended measures provided
during these consultation efforts, and responding to questions from SWRCB on the technical studies and
CEQA documentation. We reserve the right to submit a separate scope and cost if the required level of

SUBJECT:ADVANCED METERING INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT
AUGMENTATION FUNDING TRANSFER AMENDMENT
Agenda Item # 9.4.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the following resolution entitled: “A
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD AMENDING THE
ADVANCED METERING INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT AUGMENTATION FUNDING
TRANSFER IN FROM 4011.67.070 TO 4011.68.093 IN THE AMOUNT OF $1,887,127.46.”
Background:
On November 15, 2022, the City Council of Lynwood approved Item #11 – Purchase of
Sensus Small Water Meters from Aqua-metrics for the Advanced Metering Infrastructure
Project.
Discussion and Analysis:
At the November 15, 2022 City Council Meeting, the requested budget augmentation was
allocated to the wrong account (4011.67.070) due to a typographical error in the Funding
Transfer In request. Although the context of the staff report was correct, the funding was
allocated to the wrong account and needs approval to move the funding from wrong account
fund of 4011.67.070 to the correct fund of 4011.68.093 to complete the approved purchase

RE: Crown Castle managed wireless equipment on City property, files 839150, 839458, 839533, 878083
Good morning,
Regarding the 4 current ground leases on City property managed by Crown Castle, 3 of which are the water
tanks and the fourth is a clock tower structure, this letter is to confirm that on October 27, 2022 Crown
Castle’s Property Committee approved the terms in the City’s counterproposal letter dated October 18 for
rent pre-payment to the City with 20 year extension for each of the 4 leases:
Payment to City Notes
$1,641,250 20 year lease
extension
15 year pre-
payment term
Monthly rent ends when the amendment is executed
and prepayment delivered, and begins again after 15
years, including escalations occurring during the 15
year period
$318,750 Supplement
for tank
painting
Within a year of completion of painting, antennae
on water tank legs will be painted, covered or other
camouflage to match tank color selected by City.
Total $1,960,000
Crown Castle is preparing the amendments for each of the four leases to memorialize these terms and will
provide them to the City for execution in the near future. With that, Crown Castle will execute, provide the
City fully executed copies and schedule the lump sum payment to the City.
We look forward to receiving as soon as possible the permits the City is currently holding, so carrier
modifications can be installed.
With thanks,

Drive, Canonsburg, Pennsylvania 15317.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Owner and Sprint PCS Assets, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company
(“Original Lessee”) entered into a PCS Site Agreement dated September 4, 2002 (the “Agreement”), a
memorandum of which was recorded in the Official Records of the Recorder’s Office of Los Angeles
County, California (“Official Records”) on November 2, 2002 at Document No. 02-2811873, whereby
Original Lessee leased certain real property, together with access and utility easements, located in Los
Angeles County, California from Owner, as further described and depicted in Exhibit “A-1” attached
hereto (the “Site”), all located within certain real property owned by Owner (the “Property”); and
WHEREAS, STC One LLC, registered in California as Tower Company One LLC, is currently
the lessee under the Agreement as ultimate successor in interest to the Original Lessee; and
WHEREAS, the Site may be used for the purpose of constructing, maintaining and operating
a communications facility, including tower structures, equipment shelters, cabinets, meter boards,
utilities, antennas, equipment, any related improvements and structures and uses incidental thereto; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement had an initial term that commenced on September 4, 2002, and
expired on September 3, 2007. The Agreement provides for four (4) extensions of five (5) years each,
the first three (3) of which were exercised by Lessee. According to the Agreement, the final extension
expires on September 3, 2027; and
WHEREAS, Owner and Lessee desire to amend the Agreement on the terms and conditions
contained herein.
NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are acknowledged, Owner and Lessee agree as follows:
1. Recitals; Defined Terms. The parties acknowledge the accuracy of the foregoing
recitals. Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Agreement. All references to the defined term “SPCS” in the Agreement are hereby deleted and
“Lessee” is inserted in its place.
2.Term; Option to Extend. The second sentence of Section 2 of the Agreement, and only
that sentence, is hereby deleted and the following is inserted in its place:
This Agreement shall have eight (8) successive options to extend the Initial Term
of this Lease, each option for an additional period of five (5) years (the
“Extended Terms”) following the expiration of the Initial Term, or the
Extended Term, as applicable, on all the terms and conditions of this Lease unless
Lessee provides Owner notice of intention not to renew not less than ninety (90) days
prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extended Terms.
116
Site Name: F3 – CITY OF LYNWOOD

2
Owner and Lessee hereby acknowledge that Lessee has exercised the first four (4) Extended
Terms, leaving a balance of four (4) Extended Terms, with the final Extended Term expiring on
September 3, 2047.
3. Prepaid Rent. Lessee will pay to Owner a one-time payment of One Hundred Eighty-
One Thousand, Two Hundred Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($181,250.00) within sixty (60) days after
execution of this First Amendment by the parties, which sum shall be deemed to be all rent obligations
set forth in Section 3 of the Agreement for that fifteen (15) year period of the Agreement term
beginning on January 1, 2024 (“Pre-Payment Period”), with the exception of any rent associated with
an expansion of the Site. However, Owner’s consent shall be required for any expansion of the square
footage of the Premises along with a corresponding mutually agreed upon increase in the Rent, whether
or not such expansions occurs during the Pre-Payment Period. Upon expiration of the Pre-Payment
Period, Rent payments will resume and shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Agreement,
taking into account any scheduled increases in rent that would have occurred during the Pre-Payment
Period, and any subsequent increases in rent shall continue in accordance with the terms of the
Agreement, notwithstanding the Pre-Payment Period. During the Pre-Payment Period, Owner shall
have no right to terminate the Agreement for non-payment of rent. However, Owner may, upon written
notice, terminate the Lease for a non-monetary material default that remains uncured for a thirty (30)
day period. If the nature of such default is such that the same cannot be reasonably cured within such
thirty (30) day period Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee shall within such period
commence such cure and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion. In addition, Owner
waives its right to consent to any sublease of all or a portion of the Premises during the Pre-Payment
Period. Upon expiration of the Pre-Payment Period, such obligations will resume in accordance with
the terms of the Lease.
4. Default. The following shall be added to the end of Section 12 of the Agreement:
Further, if Lessee a) fails to maintain or operate the Premises in a safe and clean manner; b)
fails to install or maintain the Site within the existing lease area; c) or fails to obtain the consent
of the Landlord for any changes that require the prior consent of the Landlord; Lessee shall be
considered in default of the Lease. Owner may also, in its discretion, elect to perform any
necessary repairs or maintenance, which shall be paid by Lessee within thirty (30) days of
receipt of an invoice from Owner reasonably documenting such expense. In the event of an
emergency, constituting an immediate threat of harm to persons or property, Lessee shall
correct or cure such default as quickly as possible, but not later than ten (10) days following
receipt of notice, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable.
5. Premises. The parties agree that Exhibit “A-3” attached to this First Amendment,
describing and depicting the Premises, is hereby substituted for and shall replace Exhibit “A-1” to the
Lease.
6. Collocation of Owner’s Equipment. Should Owner desire to collocate Owner’s
equipment at the Facility, Lessee shall reasonably cooperate with Owner’s request for collocation of
such equipment. Owner shall use best efforts to locate such equipment in a manner that does not
interfere with any transmission or reception by Lessee or its customer’s equipment.
7. Ratification.

a) Owner and Lessee agree that Lessee is the current lessee under the Agreement, the
Agreement is in full force and effect, as amended herein, and the Agreement contains the entire
agreement between Owner and Lessee with respect to the Site.
b) Owner agrees that any and all actions or inactions that have occurred or should have
occurred prior to the date of this First Amendment are approved and ratified and that no breaches or
defaults exist as of the date of this First Amendment.
c) Owner represents and warrants that Owner is duly authorized and has the full power,
right and authority to enter into this First Amendment and to perform all of its obligations under the
Lease as amended.
d) Owner agrees to provide such further assurances as may be requested to carry out and
evidence the full intent of the parties under the Lease as amended hereby, and ensure Lessee’s
continuous and uninterrupted use, possession and quiet enjoyment of the Premises under the Lease as
amended hereby.

follows:
If to Lessee, to: STC One, LLC
Attn: Legal – Real Estate Dept.
2000 Corporate Drive
Canonsburg, PA 15317
9. IRS Form W-9. Owner agrees to provide Lessee with a completed IRS Form W-9, or
its equivalent, upon execution of this First Amendment and at such other times as may be reasonably
requested by Lessee. In the event the Premises is transferred, the succeeding Owner shall have a duty
at the time of such transfer to provide Lessee with a completed IRS Form W-9, or its equivalent, and
other related paperwork to effect a transfer in the Basic Rent to the new Owner. Owner’s failure to
provide the IRS Form W-9 within thirty (30) days after Lessee’s request shall be considered a default
and Lessee may take any reasonable action necessary to comply with IRS regulations including, but
not limited to, withholding applicable taxes from Basic Rent payments.
10. Appraisal Option. After expiration of the Pre-Payment Period, unless the City has
otherwise adopted standard rental rates for wireless facilities pursuant to the Fee Mitigation Act, the
parties shall mutually agree upon an appropriate monthly rent. In the event the parties cannot mutually
agree upon an appropriate monthly rent, an appraisal of the Premises shall be made by a professional,
independent real estate appraiser specializing in valuation of telecommunication facilities in Los
Angeles County (“Appraiser”). The Appraiser shall be mutually selected, and the cost of the appraisal
shall be equally shared by the parties. Owner may, in its discretion, elect to make use of the appraised
value as the new rent, effective as of the commencement of a new Extended Term following final
expiration of the Pre-Payment Period. In the event the parties are unable to mutually select an
Appraiser, each party shall have the right to retain an Appraiser at its sole cost and expense.
11. Remainder of Lease Unaffected. The parties hereto acknowledge that except as
expressly modified hereby, the Lease remains unmodified and in full force and effect. In the event of
any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this First Amendment and the Lease, the terms of
this First Amendment shall control. The terms, covenants and provisions of this First Amendment
shall extend to and be binding upon the respective executors, administrators, heirs, successors and
assigns of Owner and Lessee. This First Amendment may be executed simultaneously or in

counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one
and the same agreement.
12. Recordation. Lessee, at its cost and expense, shall have the right to record a
memorandum of this First Amendment (“Memorandum”) in the Official Records at any time following
the execution of this First Amendment by all parties hereto. In addition, Lessee shall have the right in
its discretion, to record a notice of lease, affidavit or other form to be determined by Lessee without
Owner’s signature in form and content substantially similar to the Memorandum, to provide record
notice of the terms of this First Amendment.

Recorder’s Office of Los Angeles County, California (“Official Records”) on June 19, 2002 at
Instrument No. 02-1390881, whereby Original Tenant leased certain real property, together with access
and utility easements, located in Los Angeles County, California from Landlord, as further described
and depicted in Exhibit “A-3” attached hereto (the “Premises”), all located within certain real property
owned by Landlord (the “Real Property”); and
WHEREAS, Original Tenant merged into Crown Castle MU LLC as further described in that
certificate of merger filed with Delaware SOS July 26, 2006, File No. 3075328, is currently the tenant
under the Lease as successor in interest to the Original Tenant; and
WHEREAS, the Premises may be used for the purpose of constructing, maintaining and

boards, utilities, antennas, equipment, any related improvements and structures and uses incidental
thereto; and
WHEREAS, the Lease had an initial term that commenced on August 1, 2000, and expired on

which were exercised by Tenant. According to the Lease, the final extension expires on July 31, 2030;
and
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease on the terms and conditions
contained herein.
NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which

recitals. Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Lease.

day period. If the nature of such default is such that the same cannot be reasonably cured within such
thirty (30) day period Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall within such period
commence such cure and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion. In addition, Landlord
waives its right to consent to any sublease of all or a portion of the Premises during the Pre-Payment
Period. During the Pre-Payment Period (i) the term of the Lease shall automatically be extended for
each Extended Term unless Tenant notifies Landlord of its intention not to renew at least thirty (30)
days prior to the expiration of the then current Extended Term, and Tenant shall not be required to
submit the Option Notice set forth in Section 2(a) of the Lease, and (ii) Tenant shall not be required to
satisfy the Extension Condition Precedent set forth in Section 2(b) of the Lease. Upon expiration of
the Pre-Payment Period, such obligations will resume in accordance with the terms of the Lease.
4. Default. The last sentence of Section 12(a)(iii) of the Lease, and only that sentence, is
hereby deleted and the following is inserted in its place:
If the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE:October 17, 2023
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
APPROVED BY:Ernie Hernandez, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Mark Flores, Director of Recreation & Community Services
Jose Trejo, Deputy Director of Recreation & Community Services
SUBJECT:RESOLUTION APPROVING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT FOR PRIVATE SECURITY SERVICES FOR CITY PARKS
AND FACILITIES
Agenda Item # 10.2.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Authorize staff not to exercise the Year #2 security services contract extension option with
Good Guard Security, approving of expiration of the Agreement, effective October 24, 2023.
2. Adopt the attached resolution, entitled “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF LYNWOOD AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A SIX-
MONTH AGREEMENT WITH PROFESSIONAL SECURITY CONSULTANTS IN THE
AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $200,000.”
Background:
In October of 2022, the City entered into an agreement with Good Guard Security, Inc., to be
the City’s security services provider. The agreement’s initial term is for one (1) year, expiring
on October 24, 2023. Staff is requesting authority to allow the current contract to expire and
for staff to execute a restricted agreement with a new security provider. The recommended
action will ensure the City is able to continue to provide security services for its parks and
facilities with limited interruptions.
Discussion and Analysis:
In October of 2022, the City entered into an Agreement with Good Guard Security, Inc., to be
the City’s new provider of security services for the City’s parks and facilities. The selection of
City Council City Council Regular Meeting 166
Good Guard, Inc., resulted from a formal RFP process and followed a multi-year professional
services relationship between the City and Professional Security Consultants, Inc. The RFP
selection committee was comprised of industry professionals from the LAC Sheriff’s
Department (Century Station), the Lynwood Unified School District’s Chief of Campus Security
and City of Lynwood representatives from the Community Development and Finance
Departments. With professional input from the committee and results from interviews with the
top four (4) graded firms - from a total of nine (9) respondents to the RFP - the committee
recommended consideration of Good Guard Security, Inc. to be the City’s new provider.
In line with staff’s recommendation, the City Council awarded the contract to Good Guard
Security that went into effect on October 24, 2022. The initial term is for one (1) year from
October 24, 2022 through October 24, 2023. As part of existing contract provisions, the City
currently has the option of extending the agreement for three (3) additional one-year terms
and potentially concluding October 24, 2026. If the awarded contractor continued to perform
high-level service at a competitive price, the structure of the current agreement intended to
create opportunities for a long-term and consistent working relationship. A copy of the contract
with Good Guard Security is attached as Exhibit A.
Summary of Recommended Action
As the current services agreement approaches its Year #1 expiration date on 10/24/23, staff
believes that the City would be best served by a different service provider and recommends
that the City Council authorize staff to choose not to exercise the possible extension option for
year #2. Staff is requesting authority from the City Council to allow the current contract to
expire and then have staff execute a six (6) months agreement with Professional Security
Consultants for security services up to, but not-to-exceed $200,000 for day-to-day service
operations. This action is in accordance with the City’s informal bid process - Lynwood
Municipal Code (LMC) 6-3.9 (d) Exceptions to Formal Bidding requirements. The
recommended action will ensure that the City is able to continue providing security services for
its parks and facilities with limited service interruption. Staff will also begin to develop a new
Request for Proposals (RFP) process.
Summary of 2022 RFP Process
The 2022 RFP process for Security Services proposals, resulted in nine (9) firms responding
to the City’s Request for Proposals (Please refer to list of firms in Exhibit B). In anticipation of
potentially moving forward with a new security services provider after 10/24/23, staff contacted
the second and third ranked firms from the 2022 RFP to inquire about their interest in
providing services to the City. Both firms expressed interest and are available should the City
choose to contract with them. Staff finds both firms highly qualified and capable to meet the
City’s needs, but with a significant cost difference between the two firms. The respective
proposals of both firms are attached to this staff report. Professional Security Consultants
(PSC) resubmitted their original proposal from the 2022 RFP (Exhibit C) and American Guard
Services (AGS) updated their pricing (Exhibit D) to reflect their increased proposed cost.

The City has a significant need to continue security services. Staff has evaluated both
proposals from PSC and ASC and recommends that the City Council authorize staff to
execute a six (6) months agreement with PSC for security services. As the City’s previous
security provider, PSC is well-positioned and capable of immediately servicing this agreement
on an interim basis while the City completes the RFP process for a new agreement . If staff is
authorized to move forward with an agreement with PSC, there will already be sufficient
funding within the FY 23-24 budget for daily park and facility patrol security services and no
additional funding will be needed. Staff would then prepare an RFP to go out to bid as soon as
possible. A formal RFP process will take approximately 4 to 6 months - including the contract
development process and an allowance for a possible service provider transition.
Alternatively, the City Council may choose to consider AGS for security services. However,
staff does not recommend this option. Without reducing current service levels, an agreement
with AGS will result an increase to the cost of services. To stay within the adopted budget for
this service, contracting with AGS will require a reduction in the existing scope of work
(currently at 224 hours per week of security services). Maintaining current service levels with
AGS will mean that the higher proposed personnel cost will result in having to appropriate
additional funds to complete the FY-23.

There are no anticipated fiscal impacts to the City’s General Fund from the recommended
action. Funding for security service patrols of facilities and parks is included in the Adopted FY
2023-2024 Budget. The Scope of Services for the recommended Professional Service
Agreement with PSC will be limited to the allocated budget for patrol services.

Response to Request for Security Services
As you are aware, American Guard Services (AGS) provided a bid response to the City
of Lynwood’s (City) request for proposal in late 2022. AGS appreciates that the City is
looking for a new security provider and appreciates the Zoom call on Monday, September
11th to discuss the City’s needs, current situation, and desired partnership with a new
security provider. As expressed on that Zoom call, AGS is interested in providing armed
and unarmed security guard services to the City of Lynwood’s parks and public facilities.
AGS understands and is committed to the provision of security services for the City’s
Parks and Public Facilities. AGS has updated our proposed pricing in accordance with
market forces which have increased market wages as detailed in this proposal and
detailed in our market surveys enclosed.
Brief History of the Firm
AGS is a corporation founded in 1997. For over 25 years, we have implemented all-
encompassing security services across the United States for both government and
commercial clients. Our provided services include but are not limited to the training,
management, and deployment of licensed security personnel. AGS maintains regional
and nationwide infrastructure, 6,000+ personnel, management expertise, geographical
familiarity, demographical understanding, and offices in key areas – including our
corporate headquarters in Los Angeles – all committed to ensuring the optimal servicing
of every contract through the proper provision of quality officers and resource support.
Demonstrated Experience and Successful Past Performance
The dual nature of AGS to garner a nationwide reach while maintaining a strong local
focus in Southern California places us in a uniquely exceptional position to provide
security services for the City. Our heavy regional infrastructure, personnel capabilities,
and management expertise currently provide security services for government entities
throughout the region as well as nationwide . AGS is simultaneously ready to
236
AMERICAN OWNED [2] AMERICAN OPERATED
Security Guard Services • Stakeholder Communication • Rapid Response • Guard Location Tracking
accommodate growth and extend our services to include the City, should our firm be
selected.
A distinguishing advantage of contracting with AGS is our specialized security experience
in staffing security services for all-encompassing armed and unarmed security contracts.
We currently service contracts, in-state and nationwide, similar to the City’s specified
needs, providing security for various entities through direct and associated work including
critical infrastructure, housing authorities, transit authorities, federal and local
municipalities, educational institutions, and maritime facilities.
AGS is intrinsically familiar and experienced with the vast needs and associated concerns
of all-encompassing security contracts including issues related, but not limited to visitors,
foot and mobile patrols, surveillance solutions, security consulting, investigations, and
interactions with a wide variety of personalities. With a multitude of similar contracts, we
are the premier security services provider in this field.
Superior Security Services: Officer Wage Survey
To offer above-average wages and assess regional competition, AGS conducts wage
surveys. We present this information to embed the ideal that we offer above-average
rates in order to select the most qualified candidates while simultaneously maximizing
officer retention and raising the bar for expectations, showing that we are not merely hiring
warm bodies. The information provided by the following table compares our proposed
rates with averages from current job listings for unarmed officer and armed officer
candidates local to Lynwood, CA:
$20.00

AMERICAN OWNED [3] AMERICAN OPERATED
Security Guard Services • Stakeholder Communication • Rapid Response • Guard Location Tracking
The average hourly rates for unarmed officers and armed officers, listed above, were
compiled from current job listings posted by other security companies. As the average
pay for unarmed security officers per the above data is $18.94 per hour, AGS proposes
a minimum pay rate of $20.00 per hour for unarmed security officer candidates.
Additionally, as the average pay for armed security officers per the above data is $2 4.66
per hour, AGS proposes a minimum pay rate of $26.00 per hour for armed security office r
candidates to ensure the recruitment and retention of highly qualified security
professionals.
In consideration of these averages AGS proposes above-average and fair-market rates,
ensuring the ability to offer premium wages and attract ing the best candidates available.
These rates will increase year-over-year to remain competitive and ensure continued
excellence in the security services provided to the City, if awarded. Offering competitive
wages and appropriate increases helps with recruitment and retention, ensures a higher
caliber of security officer, and delivers a value for which there is no rep lacement.
Superior Security Services: SAFETY Act Designation
Our SAFETY Act Designation is proof that AGS embodies and provides the highest
standards when it comes to detecting suspicious activity, providing superior security,
correct and project-specific training as well as protections against domestic terrorism.
This Designation provides legal liability protections for sellers of
Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technologies (QATT) and their clients,
ensuring implementation of TSA-approved screening procedures,
ambulatory patrol methods, surveillance solutions, thorough
understanding of interpersonal relationships, and technology
implementations tailored for every project’s unique security needs.
Out of thousands of security companies, AGS is of a select few with
this Designation from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
These such experiences, resources, national reach, Designations, and overall know-how
are all part of AGS’s distinguishing characteristics as a security service provider . To
further complement our traits and accomplishments, we maintain a Code of Conduct
which we teach to all officers who display our badge: Observe, Take Action, Report. AGS

assessments, penalties, and interests asserted against City by reason of the independent
Consultant relationship created by this Agreement. In the event that City is audited by
any Federal or State agency regarding the independent status of Consultant and the audit
in any way fails to sustain the validity of a wholly independent Consultant relationship
between City and Consultant, then Consultant agrees to reimburse City for all costs,
including accounting and attorney's fees, arising out of such audit and any appeals
relating thereto.
C. Consultant shall fully comply with the workers' compensation law regarding
Consultant and Consultant’semployees. Consultant further agrees to indemnify and hold

of Consultant’s failure to promptly pay to City any reimbursement or indemnification
arising under this Section 1.
D. Consultant represents to the City, and City relies on Consultant’s
representations, that Consultant shall serve solely in the capacity of an independent
contractor to the City. Neither the City nor any of its agents will have control over the
conduct of Consultant or any of Consultant’s employees, except as otherwise set forth
in the Agreement. Consultant may not, at any time or in any manner, represent that it
or any of its agents or employees are in any manner agents or employees of the
City. The City has no duty, obligation, or responsibility to the Consultant’s agents or

solely responsible for any tax penalties associated with the failure to offer affordable
coverage to its agents and employees under the Affordable Care Act with respect to
Consultant’s agents and employees. Consultant warrants and represents that the City

which Indemnities may become subject by reason of or arising out of any injury to or
death of any person(s), damage to property, loss of use of property, economic loss or
other loss occurring as a result of or allegedly caused by Consultant’s performance of
or failure to perform any services under this Agreement or by the negligent or willful
acts or omissions of Consultant, its agents, officers, directors, subcontractor, sub

Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this subsection shall not
apply to Claims occurring as a result of the City’s sole negligence or willful acts or
omissions.
C. Consultant agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions
identical to those set forth in this Section from each and every subcontractor, sub
consultant or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Consultant
in the performance of this Agreement. In the event Consultant fails to obtain such
indemnity obligations from others as required in this Section, Consultant agrees to be
fully responsible according to the terms of this Section. Failure of the City to monitor
compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will
in no way serve as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and
defend Indemnities as set forth herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and is in addition to any rights which City may have under the law. This indemnity is
effective without reference to the existence or applicability of any insurance coverage
which may have been required under this Agreement or any additional insured
endorsements which may extend to City.

and the making of any such payment by City shall in no way impair or prejudice any right
or remedy available to City with regard to such breach or default.
