Subject: Parking in North Hermosa
May 14th 2019
Dear Councilmembers,
Monday and Tuesday are street sweeper days in North Hermosa. Every Monday I have to search for a
spot to park my VW van.
It’s too tall to fit into the garage that was built in 1932.
The last 4 sweeper Monday’s I’ve had to drive all the way down to 22nd street to find a spot to
park. That’s about 4 blocks away.
On Tuesday’s I don’t dare move my van because everyone on the opposite side of the street is looking
for a spot to park.
Then this morning I see this:
5/14/19 AGENDA - WRITTEN COMMUNICATION
SUPPLEMENTAL EMAIL SUBMITTED TO THE CITY COUNCIL BY ANTHONY HIGGINS
ON 5/14/19 AT 9:42 A.M.
20+ scarce parking spots in North Hermosa are being given up to Triage Entertainment on Wednesday &
Thursday; probably to to do some filming.
Did anyone ask the residents of North Hermosa if they wanted to give up their already scarce parking to
some film crew.
Look, if the business district wants to give up parking to a film crew that’s one thing.
But when you start expanding it into a residential neighborhood that’s quite something else.
Once again, did you ask the residents of North Hermosa what they thought about giving up these scarce
parking spots to a film crew or are you so desperate for funds to meet the needs of our burgeoning city
budget that you are once again selling off our quality of life to satisfy your strategy of never ending
growth, growth our infrastructure simply cannot support?
I know... it’s all being done in the name of progress.... and what does that progress look like?
The beautiful beaches and eclectic character of our downtown area is being turned into a hotel district
complete with fancy expensive restaurants and one special event after another that mainly draw-in
tourist dollars.
There are more and more large trucks and traffic on our already neglected and failing residential
collector roads.
More and more residents are resorting to building large sound vibration proof houses in our increasingly
noisy neighborhoods as the only means of maintaining a decent quality of life; especially if you are home
on weekdays.
And what of the seniors who can’t afford or don’t have the time to build these large soundproof homes
and really don’t have the strength to move away anyway?
Just sweep them under the carpet as a causality of progress?
Exchange resident quality of life to promote the business district.
Extract money from the business district in terms of bed taxes, tobacco taxes, sewer taxes, increased
fees, etc., to fund city government.
I understand all this is not entirely the current council’s fault.
The city administration and past council’s have been pushing in this direction the past 20 years.
The problem Councilmembers is that under your leadership this direction is accelerating.
It’s good to make our beaches accessible and family attraction that out of town folks can come and
enjoy.
But sooner or later the residents of Hermosa are going to realize that their quality of life is being sold off
to draw in tourists that mainly benefit the business district and city coffers and theow you all out on
your collective ears.
Sincerely,
Anthony Higgins

MATTERS FOR COMMISSION CONSIDERATION
1. APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM THE MEETING OF JANUARY 7, 2019
Commissioner Benson motioned the approval of the EPAC meeting minutes for the meeting of
January 7, 2019. Vice-Chair Buckland seconded the motion and the motion was approved.
2. ROLE OF THE EPAC COMMISSION. THE ROAD AHEAD, CONSIDERING THE SHORT-TERM
AND LONG-TERM GOALS FOR THE COMMISSION
Commissioner Benson began the discussion regarding the role of EPAC as a follow up to the joint
study session with City Council on January 14, 2019. He stated that stakeholders need to sit down
and have a discussion regarding how to move the volunteers and community in the same direction
as it relates to disaster preparedness. There are 20,000 residents with 8,000 to 9,000 households.
2
In addition, identifying resources, manpower, training needs, and promotional materials are
essential in order to address the plan to develop work product. GOALS: 1. Conduct outreach
utilizing subcommittees focused on pets, businesses, individual preparedness. 2. Identify resources
needed to address the goal. 3. Plan neighborhood events to achieve the outreach goal. Host six
trainings per year in Council chambers and within the Neighborhood Watch meetings. 4. Meet with
stakeholders (Department Heads, Police Department, Fire Department, City Manager, and
Emergency Service Coordinator) one to two times per year to evaluate effectiveness of the
program. This would be similar to the Community-wide garage sale. Once volunteers are on board,
then the commission subcommittees can participate in the program and participate resources
based on knowledge of animals, businesses, etc.) The program would be fairly basic, inexpensive
and could utilize already existing resources within the City.
Vice-Chair Buckland likes the idea of utilizing CERT volunteers as the ambassadors to promote the
plan. CERT volunteers are already interested in emergency preparation. Commissioner Benson
stated that there will be participants who would participate in the CERT training. Meeting with the
leaders of volunteer groups, commissioners and stakeholders to help with providing structure to the
overall program. Chair Katz requested that one of the commissioners work with the faith-based
community as they have a large community and know who may need assistance. She also
suggested a commissioner work with the schools not only Hermosa Beach School District but pre-
school, private schools and others. She also stated City officials cannot collect a list of names for
those who may need assistance, but commissioners can and need to start compiling the list and
provide it to the police department. Chair Katz stated that there is not a structure for assisting the
homeless population during a disaster. A commissioner should begin working with the homeless
population to identify potential needs. Chair Katz stated that there are members in the community
who can’t carry sandbags therefore they cannot prepare themselves for large amounts of rain.
Map Your Neighborhood is a program that neighborhoods could implement to prepare themselves
and identify needs. Commissioner Benson stated that the community will not have quick hitting
tornados but that the City will be impacted by earthquakes that impact the community without
notice. A community siren could assist with warning and notif ying the community. Cell phones will
not be available during a disaster due to the increase in usage. Commissioner Skye -Davis stated
that the early warning labs utilizes the internet to send out messages. Commissioner Benson stated
that those in Paradise had no warning to evacuate the area therefore a back up form of
communication is needed.
Officer Faulk stated that IPhones have an option to allow emergency alerts to be sent to the phone.
Amber alerts and IPAWS are sent via the County of Los Angeles Sheriff’s office. It was stated that
community wide outreach is needed regarding disaster notifications. Chair Katz is a volunteer of
the Disaster Healthcare Volunteer. EPAC needs to ensure emergency notification awareness is
created within the community.
REPORTS
3. FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT

12. Promotion of Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) – Commissioner
Buckland/Commissioner Skye-Davis
In February of 2019, a debriefing of the Los Angeles County Equine Response Team deployment
at the Woosley Fire was held. The debriefing focused on what worked and didn’t at each shelter
location, shelter management, and provided equine response team updates. The Woosley Fire was
the largest response for Los Angeles County Animal Care and Control. The meeting was in Agoura
Hills. Commissioner Skye-Davis stated that the team is preparing for a very active fire season due
to the new plant growth in the area. As a reminder to the residents, please build a kit, make a plan
for not only family but for pets as well and get involved by volunteering either with the Equine
Response Team and with South Bay Animal CERT. One of the South Bay Animal CERT volunteers
was recognized for their service as a shelter manager at Pierce College during the Woosley Fire.
Some trainings recently offered by South Bay Animal CERT include shelter set-up, identifying
health issues, the items best suited for a CERT backpack and what should be included in a pet
preparedness kit. There will be a tabletop exercise on shelter operations and a training on how to
create tranquility and calmness in a chaotic environment in the near future. The South Bay Bird
Society will be giving a presentation on how to prepare for emergencies for birds. Commissioner
Skye-Davis will be speaking to a local girl scout troop regarding pet preparedness.
Chair Katz encourages residents to ensure their animals have a microchip. When she responded to
Hurricane Katrina, there were over 1,000 animals who did not have a microchip making it difficult to
reunite the animals with their owners. Chair Katz requested a demonstration on what to put into an

sandbags can be picked up during business hours at the City yard and after hours
and the weekends at the Fire Stations. Sandbags are generally pre-filled but if
demand is high and the pre-filled bags are gone, then residents will need to fill their
own bags. The recommendation is to bring someone to assist as the bags are
heavy. In addition, place a towel and/or blanket down in the vehicle prior to loading
the sandbags as the bags may leak sand.

seconded the motion. All were in favor of adjourning the meeting at 8:08 p.m.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of May 14, 2019
REVIEW OF SUBMITTAL OF THE 2018 HERMOSA BEACH
HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT
(Community Development Director Ken Robertson)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1.Receive and file the 2018 Housing Element Annual Progress Report; and
2.Direct staff to submit the report to the California Department of Housing and Community
Development.
Executive Summary:
State law requires each jurisdiction to prepare and file Annual Progress Reports (APRs)with the
California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)describing housing
production and the status of Housing Element program implementation.APRs must be prepared
using the format established by HCD and be reviewed by the City Council at a public meeting prior to
submittal to HCD.
Attached for City Council review is the Housing Element APR for calendar year 2018 (Attachment 1).
The Housing Element covering the 2013-2021 planning period was adopted by the City Council and
certified by HCD as being in full compliance with state law in 2014.The next update to the Housing
Element will be due in 2021.
Background:
The attached housing production data is prepared using the forms as required by HCD.It reflects the
typical pattern in Hermosa Beach where the annual net increase in housing is relatively small,as new
projects typically replace existing housing units, or the net increase is only one or two units.
The data also reflects the emerging trend of the construction of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs).
Five ADUs were permitted in 2018.

REPORT 19-0283
General Plan Consistency:
Annual Progress Reports are required by Government Code Section 65400 and part of the City’s
responsibility to implement the Housing Element of the General Plan.This report and associated
recommendations have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan.Relevant
Policies are listed below:
Land Use Element Goal 2.
Neighborhoods provide for diverse needs of residents of all ages and abilities,and are organized to
support healthy and active lifestyles.
·2.3 Balanced neighborhoods.Promote a diverse range of housing unit types and sizes,within
the allowed densities.
Housing Element Issue Area No. 3
Provision of Adequate Sites for New Housing.The majority of the City underwent development during
the early 1900s.More intensive development followed,and this intensification has occurred up to the
present time.There are few vacant parcels of land remaining in the City,and the majority of the
residential construction that has occurred involved the “recycling”of individual properties.
Nevertheless,the City of Hermosa Beach will continue to explore potential sites for residential
development as a means to achieve a variety and diversity of housing types.
·Policy 3.1 The City will evaluate new development proposals in light of the community's
environmental resources and values,the capacity of the public infrastructure to accommodate
the projected demand, and the presence of environmental constraints.
·Policy 3.2 The City will continue to evaluate the General Plan and zoning to ensure residential
development standards are adequate to serve future development.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associate with filing this report.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of May 14, 2019
RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE THE FIRST AMENDMENT
TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH
HARTZOG & CRABILL, INC. TO CONTINUE ON-CALL
TRAFFIC ENGINEERING SERVICES
(Acting Public Works Director Lucho Rodriguez)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1.Approve the First Amendment to the existing Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with
Hartzog & Crabill, Inc. (HCI) for on-call traffic engineering services, increasing the PSA to a
new not to exceed amount of $85,000, and extending the term of the PSA for six months; and
2.Authorize the Mayor to Execute and the City Clerk to attest the attached First Amendment
subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Background:
On June 9,2015,City Council awarded a $150,000 contract to Hartzog &Crabill,Inc.(HCI)to
provide on-call traffic engineering services.The award of the contract to HCI was made following the
evaluation of responses to a Request for Proposals (RFP)and an interview process.Subsequently,
on September 27,2016,City Council approved the first amendment to the on-call contract with HCI
to increase the contract value to $240,000.The contract with the first amendment expired on June 9,
2018.
On August 21,2018,a contract for $18,000 was approved administratively to continue to provide
traffic engineering services while the Public Works Department prepared an RFP for on-call traffic
engineering services.
In recent years,Community Development began requesting the services of HCl to help with review of
traffic issues related to private developments.In December 2018,staff decided to combine the RFP
of the on-call traffic engineer services with the private traffic engineering development services to
fulfill all of the City’s traffic engineering-related needs.On December 19,2018,a contract for $25,000
was approved administratively to continue to provide traffic engineering services while a revised RFP

Staff Report
REPORT 19-0281
was approved administratively to continue to provide traffic engineering services while a revised RFP
was prepared to support both the Community Development and Public Works Department’s needs.
Analysis:
The Public Works Department utilizes HCI as the primary traffic consultant to provide timely and
efficient service for the high volume of requests coming from residents,Capital Improvement,and
Community Development projects.
City staff has been working on preparing an RFP for on-call traffic engineering services for fiscal year
2018-2019.While the RFP was being developed,the Public Works department engaged in a new
PSA with HCI on December 18,2018,for $25,000 to be able to continue to provide exemplary
service to residents and other departments.This PSA is now exhausted while the RFP for the on-call
traffic engineering services is to be released on May 13,2019.The Public Works Department is
seeking Council’s approval of the first amendment to increase the existing PSA by $60,000 for a total
contract not to exceed amount of $85,000,and to extend the term of the agreement by six months to
December 2019,bridging the gap between now and the upcoming contract award resulting from the
RFP responses. The new on-call contracts are expected to be approved in August 2019.
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendations have been evaluated for their consistency with the
City’s General Plan. Relevant policies are listed below:
3.1.1 Consider all Modes.Require the planning,design,and construction of all new and existing
transportation projects to consider the needs of all modes of travel to create safe,livable and inviting
environments for all users of the system.
3.3.1 Enhance public right-of-way.Where right-of-way clearance allows,enhance public right-of-way
to improve connectivity for pedestrians, bicyclists, disable persons, and public transit stops.
Fiscal Impact:
The professional services would be paid from the Street Maintenance/Traffic Safety budget (General
Fund Account No.001-3104-4201)in an amount not to exceed $60,000 for the remainder of the 2019
calendar year.There are sufficient funds in the Street Maintenance/Traffic Safety contract services
account to support this contract.Work done by the traffic engineering consultant related to CIP
projects will be billed to each specific CIP project account,and work related to private developments
such as Skechers, would be reimbursed by the developer.

days before the effective termination date.
C. In the event of such termination, the CONTRACTOR shall cease services as of the date
of termination, and all finished or unfinished documents, data, drawings, maps, and other
materials prepared by CONSULTANT shall, at CITY’s option, become CITY’s property,
and CONSULTANT will receive just and equitable compensation for any work
satisfactorily completed up to the effective date of notice of termination.
D. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its
own terms services similar to those terminated.
12. INDEMNIFICATION.
A. CONSULTANT shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and
hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and
against all liability, loss, damage, expense, and cost (including without limitation
reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of
every nature arising from third party claims that are out of or in connection with
CONSULTANT's negligent of wrongful performance of work hereunder or its
failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT,
regardless of CITY’S passive negligence, but excepting such loss or damage
which is caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of the CITY.
Should CITY in its sole discretion find CONSULTANT’S legal counsel
unacceptable, then CONSULTANT shall reimburse the CITY its costs of defense,
including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other
costs and fees of litigation. The CONSULTANT shall promptly pay any final
judgment rendered against the CITY (and its officers, officials, employees and
volunteers) covered by this indemnity obligation. It is expressly understood and
agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is
permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this
Agreement.
B. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be
maintained by CONSULTANT as required by Section 17, and any approval of
said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or
qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONSULTANT
pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions
concerning indemnification.
C. Except to the extent of an indemnification obligation set forth herein, to the
Attachment 2
Page 4 of 10
maximum extent allowable under applicable law, CITY agrees that
CONSULTANT shall not be liable for any monetary damages in excess of the
amounts paid to CONSULTANT under this agreement. CITY agrees that
CONSULTANT shall not be liable for lost profits, lost opportunities,
consequential or incidental damages resulting from CONSULTANT’s
performance under this agreement.
13. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONSULTANT’s professional services.
CONSULTANT’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s
written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.
14. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONSULTANT agree that
CONSULTANT will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the
manner in which is it performed. CONSULTANT will be free to contract for similar service to
be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONSULTANT is not an
agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance,
bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that
may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work
or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the
direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.
15. AUDIT OF RECORDS.
A. CONSULTANT agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain,
and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement.
CONSULTANT agrees to provide CITY, or designee, with any relevant
information requested and will permit CITY, or designee, access to its premises,
upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours for the purpose of
interviewing employees and inspecting and copying such books, records,
accounts, and other material that may be relevant to a matter under investigation
for the purpose of determining compliance with this Agreement. CONSULTANT
further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following
final payment under this Agreement.
B. CONSULTANT will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining
to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Agreement.
16. CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONSULTANT will promptly implement any corrective
measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement.
CONSULTANT will be given a reasonable amount of time as determined by the City to
implement said corrective measures. Failure of CONSULTANT to implement required
corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.
17. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.
A. The CONSULTANT, at the CONSULTANT’s own cost and expense, shall
procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance
policies:
1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. The Consultant shall
Attachment 2
Page 5 of 10
require all subcontractors similarly to provide such compensation
insurance for their respective employees. Any notice of cancellation or
non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by
the CITY at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall
agree to waive all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its officers,
agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed
by the CONTRACTOR for City.
2. General Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain
commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than two
million dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal
injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance
form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the
general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed
under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice
the required occurrence limit.
3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain
automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage
for all activities of the CONSULTANT arising out of or in connection
with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage
for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than
one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each
occurrence.
4. Professional Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain
professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against
claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from
the CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such
operations are by the CONSULTANT or by its employees, subcontractors,
or subconsultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one
million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a
combined single-limit-per-occurrence basis. When coverage is provided
on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the
insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is
terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the
policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover
CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or
omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during
the time this Agreement was in effect.
B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional
liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance
company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of
California, or which is approved in writing by City, and shall be endorsed as
follows. CONSULTANT also agrees to require all contractors, and
subcontractors to do likewise.
Attachment 2
Page 6 of 10
1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents,
and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to
liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the
CONSULTANT, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in
connection with such work or operations.”
2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY, its
elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.
Any insurance maintained by the CITY, including any self-insured
retention the CITY may have shall be considered excess insurance only
and shall not contribute with this policy.
3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though
a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the
limits of liability of the insuring company.
4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its elected
or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.
5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not
affect coverage provided to the City, its elected or appointed officers,
officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.
6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided,
canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days
written notice has been received by the CITY.
C. CONSULTANT agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss
against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY
assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the
duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve CITY.
D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by
the CITY. At the CITY’s option, the CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial
capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.
E. The CONSULTANT shall provide certificates of insurance with original
endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.
Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before
commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of
insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the term of this
Agreement.
F. Failure on the part of the CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required
insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY
may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.
Attachment 2
Page 7 of 10
G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this
Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured
retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the Consultant (as the
named insured) should Consultant fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements.
The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City
Attorney and the Finance Director. Consultant understands and agrees that
satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the
effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by Consultant as primary insured to pay
its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should City
pay the SIR or deductible on Consultant’s behalf upon the Consultant’s failure or
refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional
insured under the policy, City may include such amounts as damages in any
action against Consultant for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other
damages incurred by City due to the breach.
18. USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written
approval to use any sub-consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such
approval must include approval of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.
19. FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by
the CONSULTANT of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a
release of the CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONSULTANT for
anything done, furnished or relating to the CONSULTANT’S work or services. Acceptance of
payment shall be any negotiation of the CITY’S check or the failure to make a written extra
compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However,
approval or payment by the CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the
responsibility and liability of the CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-consultants and agents for
the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such
approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by the
CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by the Consultant, its employees, sub-
consultants and agents.
20. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the
CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed
during the City’s review of the Consultant’s report or plans. Should the Consultant fail to make
such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by the CITY, and
the cost thereof shall be charged to the CONSULTANT. In addition to all other available
remedies, the City may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by the
City or may withhold payment otherwise owed CONSULTANT under this Agreement up to the
amount of the cost of correction.
21. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONSULTANT by
CITY for services performed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal budget
and within an available, unexhausted fund. In the event that CITY does not appropriate sufficient
funds for payment of CONSULTANT’S services beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement
shall cover payment for CONSULTANT’S services only to the conclusion of the last fiscal year
in which CITY appropriates sufficient funds and shall automatically terminate at the conclusion
of such fiscal year.

The Hermosa Beach Police Department is a skilled, professional, Nationally Accredited

REPORT 19-0276
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of May 14, 2019
CONSIDER AMENDMENT TO THE MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 5.78 (TOBACCO RETAILERS)
TO INCLUDE PROHIBITIONS ON THE SALE OF FLAVORED TOBACCO PRODUCTS IN ALL
TOBACCO RETAIL ESTABLISHMENTS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY LIMIT ENTRY TO
THEIR ESTABLISHEMENTS TO ADULTS ONLY (I.E. PATRONS 21 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER,
OR ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY PERSONNEL WHO ARE 18 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER)
(Community Development Director Ken Robertson)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council waive full reading and introduce on first reading an ordinance
amending Section 5.78.030 (Definitions)and Section 5.78.100 (Operating Requirements)in Chapter
5.78 of the HBMC (Tobacco Retailers)to ban tobacco retailers from selling all flavored tobacco
products.
Executive Summary:
The requirement for tobacco retailer licensing and restrictions on the sales of flavored tobacco
products are public health tools to reduce tobacco access by youths and to help avoid life-long
tobacco and nicotine addiction by youths and adults.When adopting Chapter 5.78 into the code,the
City Council only allowed the sale of flavored tobacco products in a retail store that permitted entry to
adults (21 or older or active military personnel who are 18 and over),thus allowing the sale of
flavored tobacco products in at least two retailers in the City.At the time of adoption,the City Council
also directed staff to return with an ordinance amending Chapter 5.78 to extend the ban on the sale
of flavored tobacco products to all retail stores.Extending the prohibition to all retailers is an
accepted local practice to further reduce the availability of flavored tobacco products and reduce
tobacco and nicotine addiction.
Background:
On December 11,2019,the City Council introduced an ordinance requiring tobacco retailer licenses
and implementing restrictions on all flavored tobacco products and electronic smoking devices.The
ordinance included exceptions to both of these restrictions on all flavored tobacco products and
electronic smoking devices for “a retailer that permits only patrons 21 years of age or older,or active
duty military personnel who are eighteen (18)years of age or older,to enter the location where the

REPORT 19-0276
duty military personnel who are eighteen (18)years of age or older,to enter the location where the
Tobacco Product is sold.” (See HBMC Section 5.78.100(F) and (G).)
On January 9,2019,the City Council adopted the ordinance with an effective date of June 1,2019.
After hearing testimony about the negative effects of flavored tobacco products and testimony from
retailers expressing concern about losing their ability to sell flavored tobacco products when flavored
tobacco products would still be available at adult-only smoke shops which would put them at a
competitive disadvantage,the Council also directed staff to draft an amendment to the ordinance
extending the ban on flavored tobacco products to all retail establishments.
Hermosa Beach Tobacco Retailers
The City currently has 20 retailers that sell tobacco products including cigarettes,cigars,
cigarillos/little cigars,and electronic nicotine delivery devices,such as electronic cigarettes.Three of
the establishments are primarily involved in the sale of smoking products and accessories and either
currently limit access to adults only or could potentially consider such a limitation to sell flavored
tobacco products.Other smoke shops could potentially open up in the permitted commercial
locations,as identified on the attached map,to sell flavored tobacco products to patrons 21 years or
older (or active duty military personnel who are 18 years or older).A courtesy public notice relating to
the attached ordinance was hand-delivered to the three retailers in the City.
Analysis:
The proposed ordinance includes minor clean up changes to Section 5.78.030 (Definitions)and
includes the following change to Section 5.78.100(G) pursuant to City Council direction:
A.Flavored Tobacco Products.No retailer shall sell Flavored Tobacco Products.The prohibition
in the preceding sentence shall not apply to a retailer that permits only patrons twenty-one (21)
years of age or older,or active duty military personnel who are eighteen (18)years of age or
older, to enter the location where the Tobacco Product is sold.
1.It shall be a violation of this Chapter for any Tobacco Retailer or any of the
Tobacco Retailer’s agents or employees to sell or offer for sale,or to possess with intent to
sell or offer for sale, any Flavored Tobacco Product.
2.There shall be a rebuttable presumption that a Tobacco Retailer in possession of
four or more Flavored Tobacco Products,including but not limited to individual Flavored
Tobacco Products,packages of Flavored Tobacco Products,or any combination thereof,
possesses such Flavored Tobacco Products with intent to sell or offer for sale.
3.There shall be a rebuttable presumption that a Tobacco Product is a Flavored
Tobacco Product if a Tobacco Retailer,Manufacturer,or any employee or agent of a
Tobacco Retailer or Manufacturer has done the following:
(a)made a public statement or claim that the Tobacco Product imparts a Characterizing
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/9/2019Page 2 of 4
powered by Legistar™
Staff Report
REPORT 19-0276
(a)made a public statement or claim that the Tobacco Product imparts a Characterizing
Flavor;
(b)used text and/or images on the Tobacco Product’s Labeling or Packaging to
explicitly or implicitly indicate that the Tobacco Product imparts a Characterizing Flavor;
or
(c)taken action directed to consumers that would be reasonably expected to cause
consumers to believe the Tobacco Product imparts a Characterizing Flavor.
The change to this section makes it clear that flavored tobacco products would be prohibited from all
retailers,without exception.This extended prohibition is aimed to reduce adult and youth access to
flavored tobacco products as flavored tobacco products are often the first type of tobacco products
tried by adults and youths.This extended prohibition is aimed to reduce tobacco and nicotine
addiction.
Additionally,this broad prohibition responds to the following issue highlighted by the LA County
Department of Public Health to help reduce youth access to tobacco:
·Efforts to prevent access by age restrictions are not always successful.Some youths will still
be able purchase products from adults that may intentionally purchase flavored products for
younger customers they cannot buy directly from the retailer-sometimes referred to as
“shoulder tapping”.
Prohibiting all retailers from selling flavored tobacco products will make the products less available
within the City and will reduce the “shoulder tapping”avenue for youths to obtain flavored tobacco
products.
The rebuttable presumptions listed in the proposed amendment will assist code enforcement when
determining if a retailer has flavored tobacco products with intent to sell in violation of the ordinance
and determining whether a product qualifies as a flavored tobacco product.For example,if the
retailer has flavored tobacco products in its possession,it could deny that it intended to sell those
products.If the retailer has four or more flavored tobacco products,there is a rebuttable presumption
that it had intent to sell the flavored tobacco products.
General Plan Consistency:
Tobacco Retailer Licensing and extending the prohibition on flavored tobacco products is consistent
with the following PLAN Hermosa goals:
Government Goal 7.3
Integrate health,livability and sustainability principles when adopting new policies and periodically
review and evaluate adopted policies for their impact or opportunity to improve health,livability and

sustainability.
Sustainability & Conservation Goal 3.6
Healthy Air Hermosa.Maintain high quality outdoor and public spaces in Hermosa Beach through
the Healthy Air Hermosa program or subsequent programs which aim to reduce cigarette smoke.
Conclusion:
Adding the proposed flavored tobacco product restrictions to the recently adopted tobacco licensing
program in HBMC Chapter 5.78 is considered best practices to reduce tobacco product sales to
youths and to reduce tobacco and nicotine addiction.
Fiscal Impact:
Extending the ban is not anticipated to result in any direct fiscal impact.Sales tax revenue in the City
may be effected, but the amount is unknown.

Nearly all tobacco product use
begins in adolescence.
PROBLEM:
Tobacco Use By Youth Is Rising
E-cigarettes are the main reason
Overview:
Tobacco product use among US youth is
increasing. More than 1 in 4 high school
students and about 1 in 14 middle school
students in 2018 had used a tobacco product
in the past 30 days. This was a considerable
increase from 2017, which was driven by an
increase in e-cigarette use. E-cigarette use
increased from 11.7% to 20.8% among high
school students and from 3.3% to 4.9% among
middle school students from 2017 to 2018. No
change was found in the use of other tobacco
products, including cigarettes, during this time.
Among youth:
• E-cigarettes are still the most commonly used
tobacco product, ahead of cigarettes, cigars,
smokeless tobacco, hookah, and pipes.
• E-cigarettes are the most commonly
used product in combination with other
tobacco products.
• E-cigarette use is highest for boys, whites,
and high school students.
4.9 million youth
were current tobacco
product users in 2018.
There were 1.5 million
more current youth
e-cigarette users in
2018 than 2017.
Use of any tobacco
product grew by 38.3%
among high school
students (2017-2018).
Any tobacco product use among youth
is unsafe, including e-cigarettes.
• Cigarette smoke contains over 7,000
chemicals, including about 70 that
cause cancer.
• Nearly all tobacco products, including
e-cigarettes, contain nicotine.
• Youth nicotine use can lead to addiction and
can harm the developing brain, impacting
learning, memory, and attention.

NICOTINE LEVELS
1 JUUL Pod = 1 Cigarette Pack
JUUL PODS & FLAVORS
JUUL is now the most commonly sold e-cigarette in the US.
• JUUL is an e-cigarette shaped like a USB flash drive and is easy
to conceal.
• JUUL uses liquid nicotine refills called “pods,” which contain at
least as much nicotine as a pack of cigarettes and are available
in flavors that appeal to youth.
• JUUL devices are being used by youth in schools, including
inside bathrooms and classrooms.
THE WAY FORWARD
PARENTS AND EDUCATORS CAN:
• Set a positive example by not using
tobacco products themselves.
• Learn about different types and
risks of tobacco products, including
e-cigarettes.
HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS CAN:
• Ask specifically about e-cigarettes when
screening for tobacco product use.
• Warn youth about the risks of all
tobacco product use, including
e-cigarettes.
SCHOOLS CAN:
• Adopt and enforce tobacco-
free campus policies that include
e-cigarettes.
• Reject tobacco industry-sponsored
prevention programs, which are
proven not to work.
STATES AND COMMUNITIES CAN:
• Prohibit smoking and e-cigarette use
inside workplaces and public places.
• Increase the minimum age of sale
of tobacco products to 21 years.
• Prohibit the sale of flavored
tobacco products.

Progress erased: youth tobacco use increased during 2017-2018
4.9 million middle and high school students used tobacco products in 2018
About 4.9 million middle and high school students were current users (used in the past 30 days) of some type of
tobacco product in 2018, up from 3.6 million in 2017. This increase—driven by a surge in e-cigarette use—erased
past progress in reducing youth tobacco product use, according to a new Vital Signs report published by the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
With the exception of e-cigarettes, no change was found in the use of other tobacco products, including cigarettes,
resulting in a net increase in overall tobacco product use during 2017-2018. There were 1.5 million more youth
e-cigarette users in 2018 than 2017, and those who were using e-cigarettes were using them more often, as was
previously reported in November 2018. Frequent use (more than 20 days in the past 30 days) of e-cigarettes,
increased from 20 percent in 2017 to 28 percent in 2018 among current high school e-cigarette users.
More than 1 in 4 (27.1%) high school students and about 1 in 14 (7.2%) middle school students currently used a
tobacco product in 2018. For the fifth year in a row, e-cigarettes (20.8%) were the most commonly used tobacco
product among high schoolers, followed by cigarettes (8.1%), cigars (7.6%), smokeless tobacco (5.9%), hookah
(4.1%), and pipe tobacco (1.1%). Among middle schoolers, e-cigarettes (4.9%) were also the most commonly used
tobacco product, followed by cigarettes (1.8%), smokeless tobacco (1.8%), cigars (1.6%), hookah (1.2%), and pipe
tobacco (0.3%).
Many youth tobacco product users are also using multiple products. Among current tobacco users, about 2 in 5
(1.68 million) high school students and 1 in 3 (270,000) middle school students used two or more tobacco products
in 2018. The most commonly used tobacco product combination was e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes among
both middle and high school students.
Robert Redfield, M.D., CDC Director_______________________________________________________
“The skyrocketing growth of young people’s e-cigarette use over the past year threatens to erase progress made in
reducing youth tobacco use. It’s putting a new generation at risk for nicotine addiction,” said CDC Director Robert
R. Redfield, M.D. “Despite this troubling trend, we know what works and we must continue to use proven strategies
to protect America’s youth from this preventable health risk. Youth use of any tobacco product, including
e-cigarettes, is unsafe.”
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Additional key findings:
Among high school students in 2018, any tobacco product use was reported by 32.4 percent of non-Hispanic
white, 21.7 percent of Hispanic, 18.4 percent of non-Hispanic other race, and 17.4 percent of non-Hispanic
black students.
Among middle school students in 2018, any tobacco product use was reported by 9.5 percent of Hispanics,
6.8 percent of non-Hispanic blacks, 6.6 percent of non-Hispanic whites, and 3.8 percent of non-Hispanic
students of other races.
By sex in 2018, use of any tobacco product, two or more tobacco products, e-cigarettes, cigarettes, cigars,
smokeless tobacco, and pipe tobacco was higher among male high school students than females.
By race/ethnicity in 2018, e-cigarettes were the most commonly used product among all racial/ethnic groups
except black high school students, among whom cigars were the most commonly reported product.
This Vital Signs report is based on data from the 2011–2018 National Youth Tobacco Surveys analyzed by CDC, the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Cancer Institute (NCI). This annual survey assesses current
use of cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco, e-cigarettes, hookah, pipe tobacco, and bidis among a nationally
representative sample of middle and high school students.
Scott Gottlieb, M.D., FDA Commissioner ______________________________________________________
“These data are a sobering reminder of the rampant rise of youth e -cigarette use. I fear this trend will continue in
2019, forcing us to make some tough decisions about the regulatory status of e-cigarettes,” said FDA Commissioner
Scott Gottlieb, M.D. “No child should be using any tobacco or nicotine -containing product and we’re committed to
reversing this epidemic. We’ll continue to take a series of escalating regulatory actions to try to address the root
causes of this spike in youth e-cigarette use, in particular by ensuring these products are sold in ways that make them
less accessible and appealing to youth.”
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Why are these findings a significant public health concern?
Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the United States, and nearly all tobacco
use begins in adolescence.
Cigarette smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, about 70 of which can cause cancer.
Nearly all tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, contain nicotine.
The U.S. Surgeon General has concluded that nicotine exposure during adolescence can harm the developing
brain—which continues to develop until about age 25.
Nicotine exposure during adolescence impacts learning, memory, and attention and primes the brain for
addiction.
Symptoms of nicotine addiction are increased in multiple tobacco product users compared with single -
product users.
Youth who use e-cigarettes may be more likely to go on to smoke conventional cigarettes.
What more can be done?
Regulating the manufacture, distribution, and marketing of tobacco products, coupled with proven population-based
strategies, can reduce youth tobacco use and initiation. These strategies include:
Increasing prices of tobacco products.
Protecting people from exposure to secondhand smoke and e-cigarette aerosol.
Sustaining hard-hitting media campaigns that warn about the dangers of tobacco product use.
Restricting youth access to tobacco products, including increasing the minimum age of sale of tobacco
products to 21 years and prohibiting the sale of flavored tobacco products.

7Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of May 14, 2019
AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR CIP 14-173,
8TH STREET IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
(Acting Public Works Director Lucho Rodriguez)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1.Award a construction contract to the lowest bidder, Concept Consultant, Inc., for CIP14-173
8th Street Improvements Project in the amount of $561,950.50, unless Council finds the low
bid to be unresponsive based on the information in this staff report.
2.If Council determines that the low bidder’s bid is unresponsive, award construction contract to
2nd lowest bidder, Gentry General Engineering, Inc. for $714,000;
3.Authorize the Mayor to execute the construction contract and the City Clerk to attest, subject
to approval by the City Attorney;
4.Authorize a 20% project contingency for a total construction budget of $674,340.60 (Concept)
or $856,800.00 (Gentry); and
5.Authorize the Acting Director of Public Works to file a Notice of Completion following final
completion of the project.
Executive Summary:
Staff requests that City Council consider award of a construction contract,including contingency,to
Concept Consultant,Inc.in the amount of $674,340.60 or,if Concept’s bid is found to be
unresponsive,to Gentry General Engineering,Inc.$856,800.00 for the 8th Street Improvements
Project on 8th Street from Valley Drive to Hermosa Avenue.
Background:
Capital Improvement Project (CIP)14-173 is along 8th Street,which is an east-west roadway with one
lane in each direction,has on-street parking,and provides connectivity from Pacific Coast Highway to
the beach area.
The project’s scope between Hermosa Avenue and Valley Drive consists of upgrading sidewalks to
provide a continuous path of travel consistent and in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities

REPORT 19-0285
provide a continuous path of travel consistent and in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA). The project would bring all curb ramps and driveways current to ADA standards.
At the November 13,2018 City Council meeting,staff presented a project update,and Council
directed staff to move forward with completion of the design phase of the project.Completion of the
design phase includes finalizing the plans,specs and estimates to 100%completion to implement a
four-foot-wide sidewalk path.At this meeting,Council also approved the recommendation to conduct
a final project walk-through/field review meeting on December 19, 2018 with 8th street residents.
On March 14,2019,City Council was provided an Information Item that City staff would be
advertising the 8th street project for construction bids.
Analysis:
The project was advertised on March 14th and March 21st in the Easy Reader,via the City Website
and with bid advertising agencies.Three (3)bids were received and opened on April 4,2019.The bid
results are summarized below:
Bidder Bid Amount
Concept Consultant, Inc.$561,950.50
Gentry General Engineering, Inc.$714,000
PALP, Inc DBA EXCEL paving $1,170,650
The apparent low bidder is Concept Consultant,Inc.(Concept)with an original bid amount of
$569,843.50.However,the calculations on the bid were erroneous and the total was reduced to
$561,950.50 by staff as per bid document directions.This miscalculation was confirmed with
Concept.
After the math correction,staff proceeded to perform the bid documents review to determine if the
low bidder is responsible and responsive.In order to be eligible for project award,a bidder must be
“responsible”and the bid must be “responsive.”A bidder is responsible if it has the requisite
qualifications,expertise,financing and licensing to perform the project.A bid is responsive if it
satisfies the minimum requirements set forth in the bid documents.Staff identified two issues of
concern that speak to the question of whether the bid is responsive,and one that speaks to the
question of responsibility:
Responsiveness
·Staff checked the references provided by Concept on the construction project reference form
per Attachment 1.The references provided by Concept Consultant Inc.were contacted and
came back with positive reviews regarding the completion of the projects.However,althoughCity of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/10/2019Page 2 of 6
powered by Legistar™
Staff Report
REPORT 19-0285
came back with positive reviews regarding the completion of the projects.However,although
Concept completed the projects submitted for reference,these projects were not similar to the
scope of work or magnitude of the 8th Street project.As described in the instruction to bidders
section found in the projects contract documents under the bidder qualifications heading,
“Contractor shall provide a minimum of 3 references for similar projects of similar size,scope
and magnitude,which have been successfully completed in the State of California during the
past 5 years”.The referenced work provided by Concept did not include ADA compliant
access ramp work or extensive concrete sidewalk work.
·The bid documents require that no more than 49%of the work may be subcontracted per
Attachment 2;the general contractor must perform 51%of the work with its own staff.In
response to staff’s request,Concept provided copies of its subcontractor bids,which disclose
that subcontractors would be performing 54% of the work, as follows:
o The bid for concrete work from V-ditch is $250,070 which is 44.5%of the total contract
of $561,950.50.
o The bid from the traffic control subcontractor is 8% of the total bid price.
o The bid from the handrails’ subcontractor is 1.5% of the total bid price.
Hence,Concept would be performing less than 49%of the work with its own employees.In
addition,Concept did not identify a subcontractor for paving and striping.When queried about
that omission,Concept stated that it has no qualified employees on its team presently but
intends to hire qualified employees to perform this work.This is an atypical but legal practice
for specialty work of this kind.
According to the City Attorney,Concept’s bid may be rejected as unresponsive because it does not
satisfy the 51%requirement.The City Attorney also advises that this discrepancy would be waivable
by the City Council,since it is a local /contract requirement,not statutory,if it does not give the
bidder an advantage over other bidders.
·Concept’s contractor’s license is active but the Contractor’s State License Board website
identifies pending administrative proceedings involving the license.While the Labor
Commissioner’s office cannot provide records for any ongoing investigations,staff was
provided with four different case numbers of Civil Wage and Penalty Assessments issued
against Concept Consultant by the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR),however staff
could not obtain further details.Without more information,these pending matters create
possible concern but cannot serve as evidence of non-responsibility.
During the review of Concept’s bid documents,the City Attorney suggested that staff reach out to the
surety company and ascertain if the surety would offer full Performance and Payment Bonds for the
full bid amount,in view of the significant spread between the low bid and the second low bid.If the
low bid is too low and the contractor cannot complete the project,the surety would be obligated to
step in and at its expense hire a contractor to complete the job.While this provides the City with
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/10/2019Page 3 of 6
powered by Legistar™
Staff Report
REPORT 19-0285
step in and at its expense hire a contractor to complete the job.While this provides the City with
protection,it is also a time-consuming process that would delay completion of the project.Hence,the
City Attorney wanted assurance from the surety that it was aware of the bid spread and would
nonetheless issue a performance bond for the project.The surety provided a letter acknowledging
the bid spread and stating that it would issue the bonds. The letter is included here as Attachment 3.
Concept is fully aware of all of the above inquiries and issues and its owner has assured Staff that
Concept will deliver the 8th street project on time and on budget per plans and specifications.He has
further stated that Concept takes pride in its work and guaranteeing that will be completed correctly.
The second lowest bidder is Gentry General Engineering Inc.for an amount of $714,000,which is
$152.049.50 (27%)higher than the low bidder.Staff carefully checked the second lowest bidder
documents,included as Attachment 4 and found them to be compliant.Their projects were found to
be of the same scope and magnitude and their Contractors license board record is clean.The
engineer’s estimate prepared by the project designer is $714,550 which is also 27%higher than the
low bidder’s price.
Council would need to make a determination to waive the 51%requirement and award the project to
Concept,or alternatively,determine that Concept’s bid is unresponsive and award the contract to
Gentry.
Construction for this project is anticipated to begin in early June.Notifications of commencement of
construction would be sent to all residents of 8th Street several weeks prior to the beginning of
construction alerting them of the construction dates,what to expect during construction,and phone
numbers for the key personnel involved with the construction of the project.The project’s construction
duration is for 50 working days or approximately 10 weeks.A continuous safe pedestrian route would
be maintained on 8th street during the construction of this project.Final plans are provided as
Attachment 5. A draft agreement is included as Attachment 6.
General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa,the City’s General Plan,was adopted by the City Council in August 2017.PLAN
Hermosa was divided into seven elements,each with multiple goals.The creation of a complete and
connected sidewalk network along 8th Street would help accomplish several goals of the Mobility and
Infrastructure Elements.
Mobility
Goal 3. Public rights-of-way supporting a multimodal and people-oriented transportation system that
provides diversity and flexibility on how users choose to be mobile.

agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed

7.1.2. General Liability Coverage. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain
commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than two
million dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence for bod ily injury, personal

general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed
under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice
the required occurrence limit.
19
7.1.3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain
automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage
for all activities of the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with
the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for

three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) combined single limit for each
occurrence.
7.2. Endorsements. Each general liability and automobile liability insurance policy
shall be issued by insurers possessing a Best’s rating of no less than A:VII and
shall be endorsed with the specific language of Section 8.2.1 below.

and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to
liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the
CONTRACTOR, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in
connection with such work or operations.”
7.2.2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY,
its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and
volunteers. Any insurance maintained by the CITY, including any self-
insured retention the CITY may have, shall be considered excess
insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.
7.2.3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though
a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the
limits of liability of the insuring company.
7.2.4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its elected or
appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance
coverage required herein. Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the
CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current
certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the
term of this Agreement.
7.5. Failure to Procure Insurance. Failure on the part of the CONTRACTOR to
procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of
20
contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section
6.2 above.
7.6. Nonpayment of Deductible. The commercial general and automobile liability
policies required by this Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to
satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of
the CONTRACTOR (as the named insured) should CONTRACTOR fail to pay the
SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be
subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director.
CONTRACTOR understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an
express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by
CONTRACTOR as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a
material breach of this Agreement. Should City pay the SIR or deductible on
CONTRACTOR’S behalf upon the CONTRACTOR’S failure or refusal to do so in
order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the
policy, City may include such amounts as damages in any action against
CONTRACTOR for breach of this Agreement in addition to any oth er damages
incurred by City due to the breach.

duties, or obligations of the CONTRACTOR under this Agreement will be permitted only
with the express consent of the CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall not subcontract any
portion of the work to be performed under this Agreement without the written
authorization of the CITY. If the CITY consents to such subcontract, the CONTRACTOR
shall be fully responsible to the CITY for all acts or omissions of the subcontractor.
Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between the CITY and
subcontractor nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the CITY to pay or to see to
the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor other than as otherwise is
required by law.
9. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, CODES, ORDINANCES, AND REGULATIONS. The
CONTRACTOR shall use the standard of care in its profession to comply with all
applicable federal, state, and local laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations.
9.1. Taxes. The CONTRACTOR agrees to pay all required taxes on amounts paid to
the CONTRACTOR under this Agreement, and to indemnify and hold the CITY
harmless from any and all taxes, assessments, penalties, and interest asserted
against the CITY by reason of the independent contractor relationship created by
this Agreement. In the event that the CITY is audited by any Federal or State
agency regarding the independent contractor status of the CONTRACTOR and the
audit in any way fails to sustain the validity of a wholly independent contractor
relationship between the CITY and the CONTRACTOR, then the CONTRACTOR
agrees to reimburse the CITY for all costs, including accounting and attorneys’
fees, arising out of such audit and any appeals relating thereto.
9.2. Workers’ Compensation Law. The CONTRACTOR shall fully comply with the
workers’ compensation law regarding the CONTRACTOR and the
CONTRACTOR’s employees. The CONTRACTOR further agrees to indemnify
and hold the CITY harmless from any failure of the CONTRACTOR to comply with
applicable workers’ compensation laws. The CITY shall have th e right to offset
21
against the amount of any compensation due to the CONTRACTOR under this

indemnification arising under this Section.

licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance, and approvals of whatsoever nature
which are legally required of the CONTRACTOR to practice its profession. The
CONTRACTOR represents and warrants to the CITY that the CONTRACTOR
shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect or obtain at all times during the
term of this Agreement any licenses, permits, insurance, and approvals which are
legally required of the CONTRACTOR to practice its profession. The
CONTRACTOR shall maintain a City of Hermosa Beach business license, if
required under CITY ordinance.
10. CONFLICT OF INTEREST. The CONTRACTOR confirms that it has no financial,
contractual, or other interest or obligation that conflicts with or is harmful to performance
of its obligations under this Agreement. The CONTRACTOR shall not during the term of
this Agreement knowingly obtain such an interest or incur such an obligation, nor shall it
employ or subcontract with any person for performance of this Agreement who has such
incompatible interest or obligation.
11. NON-DISCRIMINATION AND EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY. The
CONTRACTOR represents and agrees that it does not and will not discriminate against
any employee or applicant for employment because of race, religion, color, medical
condition, sex, sexual orientation and/or gender identity, national origin, political affiliation
or opinion, or pregnancy or pregnancy-related condition.
12. RECORDS AND AUDITS. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain accounts and records,
including personnel, property, and financial records, adequate to identify and account for
all costs pertaining to this Agreement and such other records as may be deemed
necessary by the CITY or any authorized representative, and will be retained for three
years after the expiration of this Agreement. All such records shall be made available for
inspection or audit by the CITY at any time during regular business hours.

risk of the CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall at its sole expense provide all such
documents to the CITY upon request.

to the CITY a wholly independent CONTRACTOR. Neither the CITY nor any of its
agents shall have control over the conduct of the CONTRACTOR or any of the
CONTRACTOR’s employees or agents, except as herein set forth. The CONTRACTOR

replaced in the proper area and tamped down firmly.
5.5.5 WATERING
A. The diamond shall be watered thoroughly with the proper amount
of water to provide a suitable condition for dragging. As a rule, the
appearance of small water bubbles should indicate sufficient
watering.
B. In all watering of the diamonds, the correct procedure is to water
away from yourself with the hose to the rear. Do not walk on the
watered areas.
60
5.5.6 DRAGGING
A. Ball diamond infields require moisture pen etration to prevent a
hard, dry condition from developing. It is therefore important that daily
dragging be completed to break the crust.
The drag used for this purpose should be a minimum 3' X 4' and
have 2/3" protruding spikes.
B. Upon completion of the crust-breaking drag, a smoothing drag shall
be undertaken. The drag is similar to a metal foot scraper,
constructed of heavy interwoven metal shaped. The size of the
drag is 4' X 6'.
C. In all dragging, the correct procedure is to begin in the area of the
pitcher’s mound, and drag in overlapping, concentric circles until
the entire skinned area is covered. Care should be exercised to
prevent build-up of brick dust under the inner edge of the outfield
grass causing a raised berm.
5.5.7 PERIODIC SPECIAL MAINTENANCE
The daily dragging of the ball diamond is satisfactory within certain limits.
However, after a period of continued maintenance of this type, it becomes
necessary to take measures to ensure an even playing surface.
A. A "drag", 5’ wide and 8' long, is used for this operation.
B. The "drag", towed by a pick-up truck or power equipment, is used to
cut down high spots, dragging the excess to low areas.
C. The "drag" includes an adjustable metal cutting blade approximately
5-1/2" wide that can be raised or lowered or set at different angles.
D. This operation will be requested through the City to the Contractor’s
supervisor responsible for the area.
5.5.8 INCLEMENT WEATHER FIELD MAINTENANCE
During the baseball season, both the preparation months of December,
January and February and the playing season of March through July, the
Contractor must assist in the removal of water from the infields in order to
accelerate the drying out process. This could include pumping from the
low spots.

City Attorney and the Finance Director. CONTRACTOR understands
and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition
6

and subcontractor nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the CITY to
pay or to see to the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor other
than as otherwise is required by law.
9. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, CODES, ORDINANCES, AND REGULATIONS.

and interest asserted against the CITY by reason of the independent

CITY is audited by any Federal or State agency regarding the
independent contractor status of the CONTRACTOR and the audit in any
way fails to sustain the validity of a wholly independent contractor
relationship between the CITY and the CONTRACTOR, then the
CONTRACTOR agrees to reimburse the CITY for all costs, including
accounting and attorneys’ fees, arising out of such audit and any appeals
relating thereto.
9.2. Workers’ Compensation Law. The CONTRACTOR shall fully comply

maintain a City of Hermosa Beach business license, if required under
CITY ordinance.

financial, contractual, or other interest or obligation that conflicts with or is
harmful to performance of its obligations under this Agreement. The

with any person for performance of this Agreement who has such incompatible
interest or obligation.

PART 5
SECTION 5
SPECIAL PROVISIONS
CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL DIAMONDS
33
5.5.1 INTRODUCTION
Recognizing that the baseball/softball diamonds are high-use facilities and
that the proper care and maintenance of these is critical to the safety and
well-being of the user-public as well as a deterrent to liability litigation, it is
necessary to establish standards to insure adequate playing conditions.
5.5.2 GENERAL
The responsibility for the condition and maintenance of baseball/softball
diamonds shall be as follows:
A. Contractor’s employee shall be responsible for the areas in which the
diamonds are located and shall be charged with the overall
responsibility for the condition and maintenance of the diamonds.
This individual shall, on a daily basis, observe the conditions of the
diamonds and take those measures necessary to insure the
suitability of the diamonds for play. Definition: Suitability for play -
A diamond shall be deemed suitable for play when it is smooth, free
of debris, ruts, berms and low spots or any unnamed condition
deemed hazardous.
B. Contractor’s employee shall meet with the City to inspect each City
ball diamond and determine necessary heavy maintenance work to
be completed on or before December 1st each year prior to the
opening of baseball/softball season. Beginning with the field and turf
maintenance the first week of December is mandatory.
C. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to notify the City of any
heavy maintenance work needed during the playing season.
D. Contractor shall be responsible for the installation of base stakes,
pitcher and home plates. Contractor personnel shall be responsible
for the burning of foul lines in advance of the playing season.
E. Contractor shall be responsible for supplying all the additional “Ball
Field Mix” (infield dirt) to complete the initial heavy maintenance.
This work is to be performed as needed at the proposal cost for
supplying an estimated 30 cubic yards of ballfield material.
5.5.4 PREPARATION OF BALL DIAMOND AS DONE BY CONTRACTOR
PERSONNEL DURING THE REGULAR SEASON FEBUARY 1ST – JULY
31ST.
A. Preparation of three diamonds shall be done by the Contractor.
During the baseball season, diamonds must be cared for daily to
34
provide a continuing high standard of condition. Such preparation is
described, sequentially, below.
B. Preliminary Watering
Home plate and pitcher’s mound will receive the heaviest watering
as these areas get most use during actual playing time. Slightly less
water will be applied to 1st, 2nd and 3rd base areas.
C. Leveling
Using a garden rake with a two-foot metal strip welded to the back,
the soil in the batter’s box and pitcher’s mound should be loosened,
raked, shaped, leveled and tamped down firmly.
If present, the dimple at the pitcher’s mound shall be maintained at
a graduated elevation to 12” above the playing surface with a
circumference of eight feet (8').
Soil, which has been worked away around each base, must be
replaced in the proper area and tamped down firmly.
5.5.5 WATERING
A. The diamond shall be watered thoroughly with the proper amount of
water to provide a suitable condition for dragging. As a rule, the
appearance of small water bubbles should indicate sufficient
watering.
B. In all watering of the diamonds, the correct procedure is to water
away from yourself with the hose to the rear. Do not walk on the
watered areas.
5.5.6 DRAGGING
A. Ball diamond infields require moisture penetration to prevent a hard,
dry condition from developing. It is therefore important that daily
dragging be completed to break the crust.
The drag used for this purpose should be a minimum 3' X 4' and have
2/3" protruding spikes.
B. Upon completion of the crust-breaking drag, a smoothing drag shall
be undertaken. The drag is similar to a metal foot scraper,
35
constructed of heavy interwoven metal shaped. The size of the drag
is 4' X 6'.
C. In all dragging, the correct procedure is to begin in the area of the
pitcher’s mound, and drag in overlapping, concentric circles until the
entire skinned area is covered. Care should be exercised to prevent
build-up of brick dust under the inner edge of the outfield grass
causing a raised berm.
5.5.7 PERIODIC SPECIAL MAINTENANCE
The daily dragging of the ball diamond is satisfactory within certain limits.
However, after a period of continued maintenance of this type, it becomes
necessary to take measures to ensure an even playing surface.
A. A "drag", 5’ wide and 8' long, is used for this operation.
B. The "drag", towed by a pick-up truck or power equipment, is used to
cut down high spots, dragging the excess to low areas.
C. The "drag" includes an adjustable metal cutting blade approximately
5-1/2" wide that can be raised or lowered or set at different angles.
D. This operation will be requested through the City to the Contractor’s
supervisor responsible for the area.
5.5.8 INCLEMENT WEATHER FIELD MAINTENANCE
During the baseball season, both the preparation months of December,
January and February and the playing season of March through July, the
Contractor must assist in the removal of water from the infields in order to
accelerate the drying out process. This could include pumping from the low
spots.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of May 14, 2019
CONSIDERATION OF AGREEMENT FOR LEASE OF
AIRSPACE WITH PIERSIDE PROPERTIES, LLC FOR
AIRSPACE OVER 51 PIER PLAZA (LORETO PLAZA)
(City Manager Suja Lowenthal and
City Attorney Michael Jenkins)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve an Agreement for Lease of Airspace with Pierside
Properties, LLC.
Background:
The City owns the parcel of property known as Loreto Plaza,which is an unimproved (except for
planters and a statue),rectangular shaped (30’by 95’feet)parcel of land between 49 and 53 Pier
Avenue (and informally known as 51 Pier Avenue).In 1975,the City granted an easement to Jack
Wise,then owner of the properties adjoining Loreto Plaza to the east and west (49 and 53 Pier
Avenue),for “pedestrian ingress and egress,”over and across the property “together with the right to
construct and maintain certain improvements on said property,including air-rights.”Pursuant to this
easement,Wise constructed walkways on the easterly and westerly sides of the buildings providing
access to second story doorways and two open-air bridges across Loreto Plaza connecting 49 and
53 Pier Avenue at the second story.
In 1977,the City allowed outdoor dining on the northerly bridge by way of a conditional use permit.At
that time,the bridge was not yet enclosed.In 1991,Jerry and Leslie Newton (Jack Wise’s successors
in interest)sought to enclose the bridge and the City accommodated that request by way of a CUP
amendment and execution of a lease.The lease term was 10 years;the airspace rent was $162.55
per month subject to annual CPI adjustments.
In 1999,the restaurant operator of Fat Face Fenner’s Fishshack (“FFFF”)sought permission to use
the southerly unenclosed bridge for outdoor dining.The City required amendment to the existing
CUP and issuance of an encroachment permit for the use and exacted an encroachment permit fee
equal to that being charged for ground level outdoor dining on lower Pier Plaza.Initially,the
encroachment fee was $2/sq.ft.,but in August,2007,the Council increased the fee for businesses

encroachment fee was $2/sq.ft.,but in August,2007,the Council increased the fee for businesses
open after midnight to $3/sq.ft.and after increases of $1/yr.each for two successive years,to $5/sq.
ft., which is the current rate.
Jerry Newton approached the City in 2003,seeking an extension of the 1991 lease,which had
expired in 2001.The Newtons had been continuing to pay rent under the lease from 2001 forward,
but it was not until 2003 that the parties discussed extending the lease term.After some period of
negotiation,the 1991 Newton lease was extended for five years from 2004 through 2009 and the
monthly rental for the northerly bridge increased to $2/sq.ft.or $700/month.It is now $763.45/month
inclusive of CPI adjustments since 2004.The parties have been operating under the lease on a
month-to-month basis since 2009.
Pierside Properties,Inc.acquired the 49 and 53 Pier Avenue buildings from the Newtons in August
2005.After 2008,Pierside and FFFF initiated efforts to negotiate a lease that would include both
bridges.A draft lease was presented to the City Council on September 28,2010,for rent of
$1,525/month.but the item was tabled due to objections from the owner of Fat Face Fenners.
Subsequent lease negotiations were delayed due to litigation between Pierside and its tenant.
Analysis:
Negotiations over execution of a new lease have been on and off for several years,during which time
the parties have been unable to agree on terms.Pierside has occupied the northerly bridge on a
month-to-month basis during this time and its new tenant,Tower 12,has used the southerly bridge
for outdoor dining pursuant to an encroachment permit,under which it has paid the standard
encroachment fee. Negotiations renewed in mid-2018 and the parties have now come to terms.
The principal terms of the lease are as follows:
Lease payment:50%of the base rental amount paid by Tower 12 to Pierside for a total
square footage of 884 square feet,consisting of the two bridges,the eastern walkway and the
small overhang over Pier Plaza,all as shown in the graphic attached to the airspace lease
attached to this staff report.The current lease amount of $2,439.84/month compares
favorably to the appraisal of the airspace previously obtained by the City.
Lease term:Term is through December 31,2019,with three optional 5-year terms at
Tenant’s election.
Encroachment permit:The lease replaces entirely the encroachment permit for the
southerly bridge.
Improvements:Pierside is responsible for repair and maintenance of all improvements and
for providing insurance coverage for its operations.

REPORT 19-0295
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of May 14, 2019
PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION OF
FURNISHINGS FOR HERMOSA BEACH BUS STOPS
(Environmental Analyst Kristy Morris)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that City Council appropriate $100,636 of Proposition A funds and authorize the
purchase and installation of new benches and trash receptacles to replace existing furnishings at bus
stops on Hermosa Avenue, Manhattan Avenue, and Pacific Coast Highway.
Background:
Proposition A Local Return (LR)Program funds are used for purchases that are required to
exclusively benefit transit.The installation,replacement and/or maintenance of benches,shelters,
and trash receptacles are eligible projects under these funding restrictions.The $100,636 of
Proposition A funds appropriation would replace existing bus benches and trash receptacles at bus
stops on Pacific Coast Highway,Manhattan Avenue,and Hermosa Avenue and is funded by the
City’s current allocation of Proposition A funds.
Analysis:
On April 23,2019,City Council approved the purchase of two (2)new bus shelters on Pacific Coast
Highway and four (4)replacement bus shelters and benches on Pier Avenue that were installed in
2010 as part of the Upper Pier Avenue Streetscape Improvements Project.Proposition A funds can
be used for eligible furniture purchases for new installations and replacement of existing furniture
within 25 feet of a bus stop sign.
Staff requests authorization to purchase and install new furnishings to replace existing furnishings at
bus stops on Pacific Coast Highway,Manhattan Avenue,and Hermosa Avenue (Attachment 1).This
will complete upgrades to all bus stops on Hermosa Avenue that were not included as part of CIP 16-
174 Street Improvements-Various Locations,and specifically bus stops south of 11th Street and
northbound at 16th Street.Benches and receptacles would be in the same style as the new
furnishings at other bus stops on Hermosa Avenue (Attachment 2).New furnishings would replace
existing benches and trash receptacles at bus stops on Manhattan Avenue and Pacific Coast

existing benches and trash receptacles at bus stops on Manhattan Avenue and Pacific Coast
Highway.
General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa,the City’s General Plan,was adopted by the City Council in August 2017.The Vision
Statement and Guiding Principles adopted as part of PLAN Hermosa describe a future where
“Hermosa Beach is the small town others aspire to be;a place where our beach culture,strong sense
of community,and commitment to sustainability intersect”and a desire to be a catalyst for innovation
with “forward-thinking approaches to anticipating future lifestyles,transportation trends and
environmental realities are necessary for creating a durable sustainability plan.”
As part of PLAN Hermosa,the City set goals and adopted policies aimed at offering greater
transportation choices to the community and reducing traffic congestion/demand for parking.PLAN
Hermosa also speaks to the need for collaboration with neighboring jurisdictions when it comes to
transportation and projects of mutual interest and concern. The relevant policies are listed below.
·1.3 Monitor best practices.Consider applying the latest state of best practices in the design,
operation, and maintenance of the transportation network that is both attractive and functional.
·1.4 Target investments.Target public streetscape and infrastructure investments in locations
with high potential for both public and private return on investment and long-term community
value
·2.1 Prioritize public right-of-ways.Prioritize improvements of public right-of-ways that provide
heightened levels of safe,comfortable and attractive public spaces for all non-motorized
travelers while balancing the needs of efficient vehicular circulation.
·3.1 Enhance public right-of-ways.Where right-of-way clearance allows,enhance public right-
of ways to improve connectivity for pedestrians,bicyclists,disabled persons,and public transit
stops.
·8.2 Alternative modes of transportation.Reduce noise impacts by encouraging the use of
walking,biking,carpooling,use of public transit,and expanding alternative modes of
transportation
Fiscal Implications:
Hermosa Avenue, Manhattan Avenue, and PCH bus stop furniture $87,106
Estimated labor costs for the installation of furnishings $13,530
Total Project Costs $100,636
Funds for this purchase would be appropriated from the Proposition A Fund.

found in the downtown area during late night hours. A more comprehensive solution needed to be
developed, so the Subcommittee has embarked on a review of prior strategies employed downtown and is
tasked with identifying and expanding what works, developing new ideas and strategies to enhance the

Access Hermosa Working Group Transition
In October 2018, Council provided direction to focus the Access Hermosa Working Group on the
task of assisting the Public Works Department with the development of an ADA Transition Plan
for the City.
At the April Access Hermosa meeting, the Group was formally introduced to the task of the ADA
transition plan.
The Group is currently reviewing the ADA Accessibility Assessment reports that were prepared
by an ADA consultant to evaluate each of the City’s public buildings.
The Group will be meeting again the first week of June. Following that meeting, staff can
present a tentative timeline for review of the Draft ADA transition plan by the Public Works
Commission and City Council.
Update on H2O Hotel Project
Regarding questions about 1401 Hermosa Avenue (the vacant commercial building at 14th and
Hermosa Avenue owned by Raju Chhabria): The owner received permits for a remodel and
refresh of the building in 2016, those permits have expired. Inquiries from potential buyers
include a recent inquiry from a developer who has an option on the property interested in
implementing a similar project to remodel and upgrade to this building. Nothing has been
confirmed or formally submitted to reinstate that permit, or regarding new potential ownership
or tenancy. (This was reported to Council in the Friday newsletter update two weeks ago)
Mr. Chhabria and his team have also indicated that the potential sale of this property will help
them with cash flow/financing issues contributing to the slow progress in completing the H2O
Hotel project.
Other commercial properties owned by Mr. Chhabria include 1242 Hermosa Avenue the
recently remodeled and improved building that has several commercial tenants, and 205 Pier
Avenue a newer building with commercial tenancies including upper floor offices. These also
have been marketed for sale.
Drug Take Back Event
On Saturday April 27, the DEA took for destruction, approximately 210 lbs of prescription drugs
that our agency collected over the past 6 months. On Saturday alone, approximately 30 lbs of
prescription drugs were collected.
