Background At the May 12,2020 City Council meeting,City staff brought before the Council an item describing a proposed Summer Streets program.This program would explore opportunities to repurpose sections of public rights of way to improve multi-modal traffic safety and expand physical distancing options for the public and businesses per LA County Health orders related to the COVID-19 pandemic.These opportunities could include such measures as expanding bike lanes,converting parking spaces to outdoor dining areas,traffic calming associated with enhancing multi-modal transportation,and a number of other potential measures. At the May 12 meeting,Council provided direction to staff to work with the Economic Development Committee to explore aspects of the program that could directly benefit local businesses.Council allocated annual AQMD funding to the program and directed staff to investigate other funding opportunities to support these programs.Staff was further directed to develop an outreach plan related to possible programs in residential areas and,lastly,to come back to Council with updates on the Summer Streets program. Discussion Council provided staff three directions to pursue in regards to the Summer Streets program.Below is a summary of progress made on each: 1.Work with the Economic Development Committee to explore aspects of the program that could benefit local businesses. Staff has met with Community Development Department staff and will have a Summer Streets item on the agenda for the Committee’s first meeting,scheduled for June 1.Staff has additionally been coordinating with the Community Development Department’s study of strategies for allowing expanded outdoor dining opportunities. City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/22/2020Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report 20-0293 2.Identify additional funding opportunities to support the program,in addition to the allocation of $17,145 in AQMD funding to this program. City staff assisted the Downtown Hermosa Business Association with submittal of an application to the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG)for their Local Community Engagement and Safety mini-grant.The application requests funding to help support implementation of certain elements of the Summer Streets program,specifically repurposing public and private spaces to help businesses provide adequate areas for physical distancing and the traffic calming measures associated with these.This request was for $10,000 and SCAG will be announcing the successful applicants by May 21.Staff is also leveraging the overlapping goals of its SCAG grant for Prospect Avenue to gain information on costs and strategies that will assist the Summer Streets program (see below). Staff has also identified a grant opportunity offered by Smart Growth America for their Art and Transportation Rapid Response program.This unique program matches agencies with artists to implement projects that can creatively address transportation related issues resulting from the COVID- 19 pandemic.The program offers up to $20,000 to the artists and $7,500 to the partnering agency. Staff is drafting an application for this funding that will target creative use of downtown public spaces to assist businesses and improve access for pedestrians and cyclists.Applications for this are due May 26. Staff is also assessing appropriate uses of the appropriated AQMD funds for the program. 3.Develop an outreach plan related to Summer Streets program components for residential areas Staff has met with representatives from SCAG on the City’s existing grant to address mobility on the Prospect Avenue corridor.This project will explore some of the strategies available to enhance multi- modal traffic coordination and safety on Prospect Ave (Attachment 1).The project will include extensive community engagement as well as a real-world demonstration of some of these strategies. The messaging and outreach for this project will inform the Summer Streets programs own strategies for other streets identified as possible locations for demonstration projects,such as 2nd Street and 14th Street.The Prospect Avenue project will also help provide information on cost and logistics involved in implementation of any proposed projects.Staff is expecting an update on branding,traffic control plans, and community outreach strategies from SCAG in early-June. In conclusion,City staff is actively proceeding at Council’s direction on the Summer Streets project. Summer Streets initiative team members are engaging other City staff and community partners to coordinate efforts and will return to Council with more updates and possible action items as they evolve.

Please include this as a written communication to the city council. Thank You Anthony Higgins START May 7 2018 Subject: Fwd: 'Live and Let Die' blares as Trump tours mask factory - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzRhcjOG1es President Trumps thinly veiled plan to reopen the economy was laid bare when Trump was touring a mask factory in Arizona yesterday with the song ‘Live and Let Die blaring in the background. Live and Let Die! For our city leaders including the council and our city manager who will push to open our DOWNTOWN BARS; obviously effective contact tracing processes must be in place first. Since DISTANCING, ALCOHOL and MASKS don’t mix the question is how are you going to go about doing effective contact tracing if a patron or employee is later shown to have likely shedding virus at the bar. Will the city require all patrons sign waivers saying they understand they will be required to isolate for 2 weeks IF ANY PATRON OR EMPLOYEE COMES DOWN WITH COVID? Additionally to facilitate effective contact tracing in a largely unmanageable bar environment will the city require the bars to keep records of all bar patrons and employees including when they enter and exit AND their home addresses ? After a couple of drinks do you think anyone will be able to speak authoritatively about who they were in contact with? Finally will the city require the bar owner take the temperature of all patrons and employees every day. If you will not take the above steps what exact steps will the city take before opening downtown businesses where open bars and/or music are permitted? What monitoring and enforcement will be present? Or will the city follow Trumps lead and do nothing and “Live and Let Die”?

Executive Summary: The Hermosa Beach Street Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District was created in Fiscal Year 1989-90 for street lighting and median maintenance purposes pursuant to Street and Highway Code Sections 22500-22679. The Landscaping and Street Lighting District must be renewed annually. Background: The Landscaping and Street Lighting District provides for the maintenance and operation of the citywide street lighting program and landscaping within street medians and parkways.The Landscaping and Street Lighting District must be renewed annually. When the District was originally formed in FY 1989-90,the assessment amount was set at $16.84 per dwelling unit.In FY 1995-96 the assessment amount was increased to $54.82 with the exception of senior citizens,for whom the $16.84 amount was maintained through a rebate program.Due to a surplus of funds in FY 1997-98,the assessment amount was reduced to the present amount of $41.45.This surplus of District funds was able to cover the increasing costs of services up until FY 2003-04.Since this time,the District has been running in deficit,requiring supplemental revenue City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0270 2003-04.Since this time,the District has been running in deficit,requiring supplemental revenue subsidized by the General Fund. Analysis: The Landscaping and Street Lighting District assesses all property owners in the City in order to provide funding for the maintenance and operation of the citywide street lighting program and landscaping within the street medians and parkways.The City Council must confirm the annual assessment each year to be placed on the tax rolls to be collected by the County Tax Assessor. This year’s assessment amount is set at $41.45 per dwelling unit,which has not increased since 1996.With the passage of Proposition 218 in 1996,this amount cannot be increased without the approval of the affected property owners through a ballot procedure under the majority protest rule. This means that the proposed assessment would be defeated if more than 50%of the ballots received are opposed to the increase. The adoption of the attached Resolutions is necessary at this time so that a public hearing can be held to take testimony on the assessments.The first Resolution approves the report prepared by the Deputy City Engineer acting as the Assessment Engineer.Its adoption confirms that the report has been prepared prior to the public hearing.This report,enclosed in the Resolution herein as Attachment 1, covers matters relating to the District and is on file in the office of the City Clerk. The adoption of the second Resolution,herein as Attachment 2,provides for the setting of a public hearing for June 23,2020 at 7:30 PM.At the conclusion of the public hearing,staff will provide Council with a Resolution it may adopt ordering the assessments Past Council Actions Meeting Date Description April 14, 2020 City Council adopt ed Resolution 20-7233 authorizing the preparation of a report for the annual levy of assessments within the Hermosa Beach Landscaping and Street Lighting District during fiscal year 2020 –2021 General Plan Consistency: This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan.

An additional amount of $291,002 will be transferred from the General Fund to maintain the District for FY 20-21. The 1972 Act requires that a special fund be set up for the revenues and expenditures of the District. Funds raised by assessment shall be used only for the purpose as stated herein. A contribution to the District by the City may be made to reduce assessments, as the City Council deems appropriate. Any balance or deficit remaining on July 1 must be carried over to the next fiscal year. Note: Total cost of the operation, servicing and maintenance of the Landscaping and Street Lighting District 2020-2021 is estimated to be $748,802. 6 PART C ASSESSMENT ROLL The total proposed assessment for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 and the amount of the total proposed assessment apportioned to each lot or parcel within the District, as shown on the latest assessment roll at the Los Angeles County Assessor's Office, are contained in the Assessment Roll on file in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Hermosa Beach, which is incorporated herein by reference. The description of each lot or parcel is part of the Los Angeles County assessment roll and this roll is, by reference, made part of this Report. 7 PART D METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT GENERAL Part 2, of Division 15, of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by cities for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include operation, maintenance and servicing of street lights, traffic signals and landscaping. The 1972 Act requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. Section 22573 provides that: “The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.” The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reason of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvements" (Sec. 22574) Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "benefit assessment" rather than a "special tax." Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of all publicly owned property in use in the performance of a public function. Railroad and utility rights-of-way are also exempt from assessment. BENEFIT ANALYSIS • Street Lighting and Traffic Signals - The proper functioning of street lighting and traffic signals is imperative for the welfare and safety of the public and property throughout the City. Proper operation, maintenance and servicing of the street lighting system benefits properties within the District by providing proper illumination for ingress and egress and safe traveling at night. Properties within the District also benefit from the proper functioning of the District's traffic signal system. Proper operation of the streetlight and traffic signal systems is imperative to public convenience, orderly traffic flow, enhanced congestion management and safety. Improved security, fuel conservation, protection of property from crime and vandalism, and reduction of traffic accidents, are special and direct benefits to all properties within the City; lighting benefits are directly related to public safety and property protection and therefore increase property values. • Median and Parkway Landscaping and Tree Trimming - Trees, landscaping, hardscaping and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, provide beautification, shade and enhancement of the desirability of the surroundings, and therefore increase property value. The City maintains trees and miscellaneous shrubbery and landscaping throughout the City. The trees, shrubbery and landscaping are located within the public street and sidewalk rights-of- way, including parkways and medians. These trees, shrubbery and landscaping provide an 8 aesthetically pleasing environment, shade, beautification, and, according to some authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. These positive attributes increase the value of all properties throughout the City. Therefore, all property within the District receive an overall specific and direct benefit from the maintenance and servicing of the street median and parkway landscaping and street tree trimming programs. Special benefits which are received by all parcels in the City are considered to be City-wide Benefits, and the associated costs of these special benefits are spread equally, based on Equivalent Dwelling Units, to all parcels within the District. All properties in the District benefit from the operation, maintenance and servicing of the street lighting, traffic signals, street median and parkway landscaping and street tree trimming. The degree of benefit to each parcel of land varies depending on its land use and the size of the parcel. If assessments were spread on an individual parcel basis, not considering land use or parcel size, it would not be an equitable method of spread because a single family parcel would pay the same assessment as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial parcel. Therefore, the method for spreading the improvement costs, which must be based on special and direct benefit, is on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) basis. The EDU method uses the residential dwelling unit as the basic unit and compares other uses to it, as follows: • Residential parcels are assessed based on the number of dwelling units on each parcel, where each residential dwelling unit equals one EDU • Non-residential parcels have been converted into EDU'S, based on engineering judgment taking into consideration the size of the parcel and the amount of frontage along the street. Every parcel is assessed a minimum of one (1) EDU. There are a total of 11,045 EDU's within the Assessment District. ASSESSMENT RATE CALCULATION Based on a budget of $457,800 as shown in Part B of this report, the preliminary assessment rate for FY 2019-2020 is calculated as follows: $457,800÷11,045 EDU's = $41.45 per EDU The assessment for FY 2020-2021 was $41.45 per EDU. 9 PART E PROPERTY OWNER LIST A list of names and addresses of the owners of all parcels within this District is shown on the last equalized Property Tax Roll of the Assessor of the County of Los Angeles, which by reference is hereby made a part of this report. This list is keyed to the Assessor's Parcel Numbers as shown on the Assessment Roll on file in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Hermosa Beach. 10 PART F ASSESSMENT DISTRICT BOUNDARY The boundaries of the District are coterminous with the boundaries of the City of Hermosa Beach. A diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District, the boundaries of any zones within the District, and the lines and dimensions of each lot or parcel of land within the District is on file in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Hermosa Beach, and is incorporated herein by reference. The lines and dimensions of each lot or parcel within the District are those lines and dimensions shown on the maps of the Assessor of the County of Los Angeles for fiscal year 2020-2021. The Assessor's maps and records are incorporated by reference herein and made part of this report. 11 2020-2021 Page 1 of 3 20-XXXX 1 RESOLUTION NO. 20-XXXX 2 3 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, 4 CALIFORNIA, DECLARING ITS INTENTION TO ORDER CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS 5 AND TO LEVY AND COLLECT ASSESSMENTS WITHIN THE HERMOSA BEACH 6 LANDSCAPING AND STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT 2020-2021 FOR THE FISCAL 7 YEAR BEGINNING JULY 1, 2020 AND ENDING JUNE 30, 2021, AND APPOINTING A 8 TIME AND PLACE FOR A PUBLIC HEARING IN RELATION THERETO 9 10 NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA 11 BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: 12 SECTION 1.

As you are aware, the South Bay WIB is comprised of representatives from the eleven participating cities of Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Lawndale, El Segundo, Inglewood, Carson, Manhattan Beach, Torrance, Hawthorne, Lomita and Gardena for the delivery of employment and training services through its One-Stop Business and Career Centers. *Impact of COVID-19 - The impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) on the economic vitality and workforce of the greater South Bay area is affecting companies large and small as they contemplate closures, layoffs and furloughs for their employees. Last quarter, as businesses closed and layoffs were imposed due to COVID-19, the South Bay One-Stop Business & Career Centers were visited by an increasingly large number of individuals seeking assistance with employment and filing for unemployment insurance. The SBWIB operates four One-Stop Business & Career Service Centers located in Inglewood, Torrance, Gardena and Carson. For the safety of the public and to reduce the number of people in close proximity, the One-Stop Centers are currently offering services virtually or accepting in-person meetings by appointment only. A number of the South Bay WIB upcoming job fairs and business expos have also been canceled, including our annual Blueprint for Workplace Success Youth and Young Adults Job Fair. Job fairs and hiring events will remain postponed until it is safe to reconvene. Additionally, the Hawthorne and Inglewood Teen Centers are currently closed to the public. Complete cleaning and sanitizing at all South Bay WIB locations is ongoing and aligned with public safety priorities. *Services offered by South Bay One-Stops – Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the South Bay One-Stop Business & Career Centers are assisting about 60-75 laid-off workers apply for unemployment insurance benefits daily during the hours of 8:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. Recruitments, workshops, orientation/info sessions, case management, and career pathway counseling now offered virtually. Many clients have also crossed over in their short-term vocational training programs from the traditional seat-based instruction to distance learning platforms. The Job Development team is now conducting recruitments over Zoom and have begun to screen and refer applicants to essential service employers that are in desperate need of employees. *Last quarter, the SBWIB received dozens of WARN notices from employers, including Floyd’s Barbershop located in the City of Hermosa Beach. The SBWIB’s Rapid Response team made contact with the employers to provide the affected workers with orientations and assistance virtually. *The Torrance One-Stop Business & Career Center held 5 recruitment fairs during the 3rd quarter for Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Lomita, Torrance and Manhattan Beach residents. 85 job seekers attended the recruitment fairs. Some of the employers in attendance included Amazon, 1 Heart Caregiver Services, 7 Eleven, and the Embassy Suites. *The Torrance Business and Career Center exited 3 Hermosa Beach residents with employment during the 3rd quarter. *In the last quarter, the Torrance One-Stop was successfully able to enroll one Hermosa Beach resident in the dislocated worker program. *One youth from the City of Hermosa Beach was enrolled into the WIOA year-round Youth Program; this individual received pre-employment Blueprint for Workplace Success training and access to free occupational training based on their career interest. Other services included paid work experience at a worksite in the City of Hermosa Beach. *The U.S. Department of Labor awarded a $12 million grant to the West Los Angeles College/SBWIB led collaborative to prepare and place 5,000 individuals into pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship roles in advanced manufacturing with a focus on the Aerospace and Bioscience industries over the next four years nationally under the Growing Advanced Manufacturing Apprenticeships Across America (GAMAAA) program. This grant was the only one awarded to a California applicant and will support training of new hires and incumbent workers. The SBWIB is tasked with placing 1,500 apprentices with assistance from partners. In addition, the South Bay WIB is generating awareness of the GAMAAA program locally, as well as with workforce and employment development organizations in other parts of the nation such as South Carolina and Florida. The partners under this initiative include El Camino College, College of the Canyons, Aerojet Rocketdyne, Bachem, Impresa Aerospace, IBM, Magnetika, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Tesla, among others. Companies and participants interested in this opportunity may contact the SBWIB at (310) 970-7700 for additional information. *As part of the Youth at Work Jobs Program, 1 Hermosa Beach student was recruited and enrolled for an opportunity to receive paid pre- employment training and 120 hours of paid work experience. Youth have a chance to earn up to $1,590. *The SBWIB’s Bio-Flex initiative continues to progress as 21 additional South Bay students were enrolled in the Pre-Apprenticeship program during the 3rd quarter. The program includes three Tracks, Track I: Work Readiness – Blueprint from Workplace Success. Track II: Technical Skills Training on BioTech Primer and Track III: Career Exploration at Sakura Finetek. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and schools moving to remote learning, the delivery of Track III will be done via Zoom meetings with guest speakers from different Biotech companies as well as a representative from the Board of Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas’ office. *The California Employment Development Department (EDD) recently awarded the South Bay Workforce Investment Board a $995,500 grant to provide immediate job placement and training assistance to 180 COVID- 19 related displaced and laid-off workers in the South Bay region over the next year. The grant funds will enable the SBWIB to provide a variety of career services that will assist dislocated workers, and eligible veterans with transitioning rapidly into employment programs and reenter the workforce. *Our 3rd quarter totals reflect 75,523 visits to our South Bay One-Stop Business and Career Centers of which 19,262 visited the Torrance One- Stop. *Rapid Response services were provided to 19 South Bay companies that employ 2,260 individuals who were affected by layoffs/closures during the 3rd Quarter of Program Year 2019-2020. Staff completed orientations to One-Stop services in addition to information regarding unemployment insurance benefits. *The Aero-Flex career pathway program wrapped up the West Los Angeles College California Apprenticeship Initiative (CAI) Grant in January. The goal of the program was to enroll 100 pre-apprentices in the advanced manufacturing sector. The grant ended with a total of 131 enrollments and 115 completions. The pre-apprentices ranged from high school and college students to incumbent workers. The SBWIB was recently awarded an additional $50,000 from the County of Los Angeles, Workforce Development, Aging and Community Services to continue supporting this initiative. The new program goal is to enroll 15 youth who reside in the supervisorial 4th district with the end goal of permanent placement. *During the third quarter, the South Bay One-Stop Business & Career Center reached out to 8 Hermosa Beach-based employers that including Rabano, Juiced, and Senior Living. The South Bay One-Stop Business & Career Center will continuously conduct monthly outreach to Hermosa Beach businesses to market SBWIB services available to meet their hiring and business needs. *The South Bay WIB and El Camino College were awarded a $500,000 California Apprenticeship Initiative (CAI) grant to register three apprenticeship occupations with the Department of Apprenticeship Standards (DAS) and to enroll 50 apprentices. The Apprenticeship standards were submitted to the Department of Labor last quarter and include two occupations; Production Technician and Maintenance Technician. Once the standards have been approved by the DOL, they will be submitted for approval to the DAS. The work plan for the third occupation, Quality Assurance Specialist, is being reviewed by the Advisory Committee. A written summary, along with a report of Program Year 2019-2020’s 3rd quarter activities and accomplishments is being provided for your personal review. Thank you.

Practicing for an interview was a really good exercise to see where I was for when I apply for a job. The field trip to Bachem was very fun and interesting. It was great to see how the medicines I take were made. Thank you for offering me this program! Ayaka I wanted to personally thank you for giving me such an amazing opportunity to further my experience and education. Without you, I would never have had a chance to be a part of a program like Bio-flex; I am extremely grateful and lucky. This program gave me the chance to visit Bachem, a company I have never heard of until that day. I have learned about biotechnology through the courses. You have helped me become a great asset to the future. Thank you! Stephanie This year, I took the Human Body Systems course at my school and I had the wonderful opportunity to be part of the Bio-flex program! This opportunity was very eye opening for me and I had a great experience! Going to Bachem and seeing the process of drug and medicine making, listening to many interesting speeches and practicing for job opportunities and interviews for the future; it was all a great experience! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of this fantastic program and for all of your hard work to make this happen! I appreciate this opportunity so much! Again, thank you!! Kurea I am a senior that was lucky enough to participate in the Bio-flex Apprenticeship that you organized very well. I wanted to thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn more about the job process and the diagnostics of medicine. Through this apprenticeship, I was able to expand my knowledge on many scientific processes and how to get a job. These are things that are useful in my life, so I am looking forward to applying my newfound knowledge to my future. I also want to thank you for organizing the field trip to Bachem. It was my first time seeing science labs in person, so it was an exciting experience. I have always been a science kind of student, so it was very interesting to see how scientists worked. Again, thank you for giving me this amazing opportunity to learn more about the science behind medicine. Justine Thank you so much for giving students like me an opportunity to join Bio-flex to help me expand my knowledge. This whole course widened my perspective on many things like finding a job, how to keep a job, how to excel at what you do. It also helped me find the different jobs in the science field and how their roles affect us. This whole experience has me feeling at ease now that I know what course of action I want to take and what path I want to follow. I think this apprenticeship was a great idea and one that should be repeated again for kids like me to know and feel more comfortable in what we need to do. Thank you for this opportunity and hopefully this program continues to exist in the following years.

For the safety of the public and to reduce the number of people in close proximity, a number of the South Bay Workforce Investment Board’s (SBWIB) upcoming job fairs and business expos have been canceled, including our annual Blueprint for Workplace Success Youth and Young Adults Job Fair in April. Job fairs and hiring events will remain postponed until it is safe to reconvene. Contact us for services As business closures begin and layoffs are imposed, increasingly large numbers of individuals are coming to our job centers for assistance, as well as Employment Development Offices (EDD), which are partners of the SBWIB and co located at our job centers. The SBWIB operates four One-Stop Business & Career Service Centers located in Inglewood, Torrance, Gardena and Carson serving the South Bay communities. However, although the job centers are open we are currently only accepting in-person meetings by appointment only. Additionally, the Teen Centers at both the Hawthorne and Inglewood locations are currently closed to the public. Complete cleaning and sanitizing at the four job centers is ongoing and aligned with public safety priorities. It is our goal to provide essential workforce services to support the public during this difficult time. Businesses and individuals needing assistance do not have to physically visit the centers and can still receive services online, by email at info@sbwib.org or via direct telephone contact with our teams of job developers and counselors, while practicing social distancing.

As a result, the SBWIB has seen a sharp increase in people seeking benefits from Unemployment Insurance. Unemployment Benefits – How do I apply? The SBWIB staff is available to help you and answer your questions, but to file for benefits you must apply online, by mail or by phone directly with the Employment Development Department. English 1-800-300-5616 Spanish 1-800-326-8937 www.edd.ca.gov/Unemployment/UI_Online.htm Individuals can receive benefits ranging from $40-450 a week. The number of weeks to potentially receive benefits ranges from 13 to 26 weeks. Most unemployment situations related to COVID-19 are being covered including those who are working reduced hours (ask for the WorkShare program) or those caring for non-ill children because of a school closure and had to quit their job to provide child care. Please call to confirm your eligibility. Teleworking and Broadband As we adjust our lifestyles to reduce exposer to COVID-19 many are turning to remote learning and working environments as a solution. Students and employees are learning and teleworking from home. Coincidentally, the SBWIB prepared a study about this in partnership with Cal State University Dominguez Hills and the South Bay Cities Council of Government (SBCCOG). The report called, “The GO- Virtual Initiative” is about telework and flexible workplace practices and may offer some guidance to people and companies interested in allowing employees to work from home. The SBWIB has also identified several no cost online classes to teach employees how to work remotely and stay productive and also classes for management on how to supervise a remote worker. Please visit our telework website for details at www.sbwib.org/telework Additionally, in partnership with the South Bay Cities Council of Government (SBCCOG) and the region’s South Bay Cities, and L.A. County Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas of the 2nd district, the SBWIB has been developing a new broadband system called, “The South Bay Fiber Network”. This new network is currently being built and will support job creation, business retention and layoff aversion by supplying the internet speed and capacity needed to keep our region competitive. The SBWIB has taken a number of steps to ensure the public has access to the resources they need and has created a website with additional information that will be updated as more resources become available. Please visit www.sbwib.org/covid-19-resources The SBWIB is here to help you and assist businesses that are struggling.

The grant funds will enable the SBWIB to provide a variety of career services to advance dislocated workers, and eligible veterans (i.e., recently separated and post-9/11 veterans) to transition rapidly into employment programs and reenter the workforce. Focus will be made to connect retraining and skill upgrading to high growth high demand occupations and sector initiatives in the South Bay and greater Los Angeles region. SBWIB Executive Director Jan Vogel noted that having previously implemented several emergency and sector initiative career pathway programs prior to the pandemic to assist dislocated workers was a factor in the EDD award. “Our career pathways in Construction, Utilities & Public Infrastructure, Manufacturing, including Biotech, Transportation & Logistics, Healthcare, Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) are aligned regionally and helping people transition into well paying jobs,” he said. Other support the SBWIB can offer is on-the-job training, pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs using earn and learn models. Retraining and upskills training opportunities are proven methods for candidates to compete and return to the workplace. SBWIB will observe safe and sanitary practices in the delivery of services to its clients at our South Bay Business and Career Centers serving South Bay communities while encouraging virtual workshops, conferencing and social distancing in partnership with EDD and onsite AJCC partners.

Executive Summary: The City of Hermosa Beach has been supporting the MTA’s Crenshaw Northern Extension Project since 2018.This letter is another step towards the realization of the project,encouraging the MTA to proceed with an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the project. Background: In 2016,Los Angeles County voters approved Measure M,a sales tax measure dedicated to funding transportation projects.This included an investment plan that identified over $2 billion for the Crenshaw Northern Extension Project.Upon completion (estimated to be 2047),this line is expected to have over 90,000 daily riders and be one the most heavily-used light rail lines in the nation. Hermosa Beach City Council has been supporting the City of West Hollywood in its efforts to move this project forward.This included a letter to the MTA in 2018 (Attachment 1)requesting that their Board approve funding for this project.This new letter encourages MTA to move forward with an EIR for the project.The EIR is an important step towards beginning construction,and eventual completion, of this project. Discussion: Many Hermosa Beach residents work and recreate in the Westside of Los Angeles that this line would serve.The line would also provide a convenient means for people from the Westside area to access Hermosa Beach.It will additionally improve the overall connectivity of the MTA’s many lines, providing more convenient mass transit options to all of the region’s people.The Northern Crenshaw Line extension will thus serve to improve the quality of life for our residents while also supporting Hermosa Beach businesses by making it more convenient to visit our City.

Washington, CEO and Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority Board Members One Gateway Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90012 RE: Fund Project EIR / EIS on Northern Extension of Crenshaw / LAX Line Dear Mr. Washington & Metro Board Members, On behalf of the residents and business owners in Hermosa Beach, I am writing to request that Metro include funding in the FY 2019 budget for the necessary environmental studies to accelerate Phase Two of the Crenshaw / LAX line – the so-called “Northern Extension.” Because of roadway congestion and the lack of mass transit alternatives, some 46 percent of Hermosa Beach commuters spent more than 30 minutes to travel each way to work, with the major work destinations being the creative and professional work centers in Los Angeles, Culver City, West Hollywood, and Santa Monica. A trip by car to these destinations easily exceeds one hour of travel time, while a trip with current transit options requires over two hours of time and multiple transfers with multiple bus operators. Why do people in the South Bay care about extending a light rail line that is miles from where our homes and businesses are located? The key is connectivity. Many of us work in the entertainment and creative fields that are centered in Hollywood and West Hollywood. We seek specialized medical care from world-famous medical institutions like Cedars-Sinai, and we attend cultural and entertainment events at LACMA, the new Academy Award Museum and the Hollywood Bowl. Our own storied beaches draw visitors from hotels on the Sunset Strip and in Beverly Hills and elsewhere in the region. Hermosa Beach strongly supports the efforts of Metro to provide regional transportation options. The Hermosa Beach City Council endorsed Measure M and PLAN Hermosa, our newly adopted general plan (approved in August 2017) is organized around a framework of sustainability, with one of its principal goals the development of a “comprehensive, regionally integrated transportation system that connects the community to surrounding cities.” We urge you to include sufficient funds in the FY 2019 budget to accelerate the Northern Extension of the Crenshaw / LAX line as a “shovel ready” project for the start of the next decade. Should you have any questions, please contact Leeanne Singleton, Environmental Analyst at lsingleton@hermosabch.org or 310.318.0252. Sincerely, Jeff Duclos, Mayor, City of Hermosa Beach City of Hermosa Beach Civic Center, 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254-3885 Page 1 of 2 May 26, 2020 Mr. Phillip A. Washington, CEO Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority One Gateway Plaza Los Angeles, CA 90012-2952 Re: Support for the Crenshaw Northern Extension Project EIR Dear Mr. Washington: The City of Hermosa Beach supports the acceleration of the Northern Extension of the Crenshaw/LAX Line and encourages Metro to authorize the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) contract by the end of the fiscal year. This project will maximize the benefits of major east -west transit investments Metro and local communities have already made in Central Los Angeles and the Westside by tying together the Metro Expo, Purple, Red, and Green Lines. Functioning as a second regional connector and north-south transit spine, Crenshaw North is projected to serve over 90,000 daily riders—more than any light rail project in the Country. Why do people in the South Bay care about extending a light rail line that is miles from where our homes and businesses are located? The key is connectivity. Many of us work in the entertainment and creative fields that are centered in Hollywood and West Hollywood. We seek specialized medical care from world-famous medical institutions like Cedars-Sinai, and we attend cultural and entertainment events at LACMA, the new Academy Award Museum and the Hollywood Bowl. Our own storied beaches draw visitors from hotels on the Sunset Strip and in Beverly Hills and elsewhere in the region. Together with the under Crenshaw Line, the Northern Extension will provide key connections from LAX and Inglewood in the south to these major destinations mentioned above. The Northern Extension will benefit all areas of Los Angeles County fulfilling an unmet promise of Measure R to connect the Crenshaw and Expo Lines to the Purple Line beneath Wilshire Boulevard and close a conspicuous transit gap between communities. For example, connecting the Expo Line to the Purple and Red Lines will eliminate the need for riders from the Westside and South Bay to travel Downtown to transfer to reach destinations north or south. The Northern Extension will help alleviate congestion, improve transit as a sustainable and efficient alternative to driving, improve access to opportunity for historically underserved communities, and, when the current crisis has abated, promote car-free tourism across the region. We recognize that this item is moving forward at a time of great economic uncertainty, but we believe it’s critical for Metro and the region to keep long term planning efforts moving forward. In City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 of 2 particular, the City of Hermosa Beach supports the City of West Hollywood’s leadership in partnering with Metro, the City of Los Angeles, and the County to explore innovative funding and financing strategies as demonstrated by their Funding and Project Delivery Strategic Plan. Hermosa Beach also supports the foundation for ongoing interagency coordina tion on the Northern Extension Project established by the Los Angeles City Council with their recent Council Motion. We strongly support Metro proceeding with an Environmental Impact Report to keep the project moving forward as interagency discussions prog ress. Sincerely, Dr. Mary Campbell Mayor cc: The Honorable Members of the City Council Members of the Metro Board of Directors City of Hermosa Beach Staff Report City Hall 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Staff Report REPORT 20-0273 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of May 26, 2020 CONSIDERATION OF ARAKELIAN ENTERPRISES (ATHENS SERVICES) REQUEST FOR AN ANNUAL RATE ADJUSTMENT TO THE MAXIMUM RATES FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES (Environmental Programs Manager Douglas Krauss) Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council endorse the rate adjustments proposed by Athens Services for its services not to exceed the attached rate schedule effective July 1,2020 for residential and commercial cart and bin rates. Executive Summary: Since entering into the Franchise Agreement with Athens Services (Athens)effective July 1,2013, there have been six solid waste rate adjustments implemented in accordance with the rate adjustment methodology contained in Section 6 of the Agreement.The most recent annual rate increase was approved by City Council at its meeting on May 14,2019.If approved,this annual rate increase would become effective July 1, 2020 and result in a 2.02% increase in cart and bin rates. Background: The City has contracted with Athens Services to provide residential and commercial waste disposal services for Hermosa Beach since July 1,2013.Per the Franchise Agreement,Athens may request an annual adjustment to the maximum rates by March 1 of each year.Rate adjustments are calculated in accordance with Section 6.4 of the Franchise Agreement and subject to City approval. The rate adjustment calculation takes into account changes in indices for labor,fuel,equipment, disposal, transformation, and all urban consumers. Discussion: The Franchise Agreement prescribes the format by which Athens Services can request an annual rate adjustment.Rate years run from July 1 through June 30 of the following year.In order to consider an annual rate adjustment for an upcoming rate year,Athens Services must submit a written request to the City by March 1 each year.Staff reviewed the annual rate adjustment request dated February 28,2020 (Attachment 1)according to the rate adjustment methodology outlined in Section 6.4 of the Agreement.The rate adjustment calculations are performed separately for the three service City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0273 6.4 of the Agreement.The rate adjustment calculations are performed separately for the three service categories consisting of carts (single-family service),bins (multi-family and commercial service),and roll-off bins.

Additionally,a special increase (Attachment 2)to rates was approved by the City Council in September 2019 to allow for implementation of organics recycling service to help the City achieve compliance with State recycling mandates.That rate adjustment increased rates approximately 2.4% for residential customers and approximately 27.4%for commercial and multi-family customers.That increase was separate from this regular annual adjustment and was implemented specifically to fund organics recycling service. City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0273 Based on the rate adjustment methods and prescribed formulas,the City’s residential and commercial businesses will have a rate increase on July 1,2020 of 2.02%,while compactor roll-off and disposal rates will increase by 1.25%.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)is a respiratory illness that is caused by the novel coronavirus.It spreads through droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Some people with COVID-19 virus do not have symptoms or have mild symptoms,which means that they can spread it to others without knowing that they are infected.It may also spread when a person touches a surface or object that has the virus from the infected person on it and then touches their mouth, nose, or eyes before washing their hands. People who are infected with COVID-19 can have mild to severe respiratory illness,with fever and cough that can develop into difficulty breathing.It can lead to serious illness and has caused over 600 deaths in Los Angeles County.Everyone is at risk for becoming ill with COVID-19,but some people are more vulnerable to serious illness due to their age, physical state, and/or health status . Antibody testing suggests that the number of persons infected or previously infected with COVID-19 may be 28 to 55 times the reported infection numbers in Los Angeles County.

International, national, state, and local health and governmental authorities are responding to an outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus named “SARS-CoV-2,” and the disease it causes which has been named “coronavirus disease 2019,” abbreviated COVID-19 (“COVID-19”). B.

Other counties throughout the state have similar directives. H. On March 19, 2020, the Los Angeles County Public Health Officer issued a second countywide order, the ‘Safer at Home’ Order, which was further clarified on March 21, 2020. This public health order prohibits all public and private group gatherings and events and requires people to stay in their homes with limited exceptions; and requires closure of all non-essential retail businesses, shopping centers, playgrounds for children, bars, nightclubs, movie theaters and all similar gathering places.

Recitals. A. Title 2, Chapter 2.56 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code empowers the Mayor to proclaim the existence or threatened existence of a local emergency when the City is affected or likely to be affected by a public calamity and the City Council is not in session, subject to ratification by the City Council within seven days. B. A severe acute respiratory illness caused by a novel (new) coronavirus, known as COVID-19, has spread globally and rapidly, resulting in severe illness and death around the world. The World Health Organization has described COVID-19 as a global pandemic. C. On March 4, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a State of Emergency in response to the increased spread of COVID-19. Additionally, on March 4, 2020, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health all declared a local and public health emergency in response to increased spread of COVID-19 across the country and in Los Angeles County. The President of the United States has declared a federal emergency as a result of the spread of the COVID-19. D. On March 11, 2020, Los Angeles County announced the first death related to COVID-19. E. On March 12, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom ordered cancellation of all non-essential gatherings over 250 people anywhere in the State and further called for canceling or postponing even smaller gatherings where those attending cannot keep six feet apart from each other and limiting gatherings of older or relatively unhealthy people more vulnerable to the disease to no more than 10 people. F. The City activated its Emergency Operations Center on March 16, 2020 and the City has cancelled or postponed all non-essential City-hosted and permitted programs and events to help prevent further spread of COVID-19 and protect its vulnerable populations, such as seniors and people with compromised immune systems, from infection.

Background: Past Council Actions Meeting Date Description 05 -12 -20 Held 1 st Public Hearing and accepted public comment At the June 23,2015 City Council meeting,Council approved a resolution for the first time adopting an annual sewer service charge to fund maintenance,operations,servicing,and improvements to the City’s sewer collection system. The sewer service charge is based on the direct cost of providing maintenance,operation,servicing, and improvements to the sewer collections system.The $115 charge per Equivalent Service Unit (ESU)for Fiscal Year 2015-16 (as adopted by the City Council)was multiplied by the ESUs for each residential parcel;and by water consumption for non-residential users to determine the charge for each parcel. The fees collected from parcels funds the City’s sewer services provided by the City. The June 23,2015 City Council action also includes a provision stipulating that beginning on July 1, 2016 and each July 1 through 2020,the sewer service charge shall be increased by the annual City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0237 2016 and each July 1 through 2020,the sewer service charge shall be increased by the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-W)for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Area (now named Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim,which covers the Los Angeles and Orange County Areas),including all items as published by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics as of March 1 of each year, not to exceed two percent per year. The FY 2019-20 service charge per ESU increased by 2.0%to $124.12,per Council action.For FY 2020-21,the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim CPI-W increase is 3.5%.However,as noted above, yearly increases shall not exceed 2%per approved Council action.Therefore,the new annual sewer service charge when increased by the allowable 2%CPI-W index will be $126.60.As required under state law, each property will be notified by mail of the CPI-W increase prior to June 1, 2020. Analysis: For Fiscal Year 2020-21,the sewer service charge rates,adjusted to the additional 2%CPI-W increase for residential parcels are as listed below: Residential Parcel Sewer Charges Single family residential units are charged at 1.0 ESU per parcel.Multi-family residential units are charged at 0.6 ESU per parcel and condominiums at 1.0 ESU per parcel as they are similar to single family residents in use.Vacant parcels of any use are charged 0.5 ESU.For FY 2020-21 the proposed charge per 1.0 ESU is $126.60. The CPI-W increase of 2%also applies to non-residential parcels.A summary of ESUs for land-use City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0237 The CPI-W increase of 2%also applies to non-residential parcels.A summary of ESUs for land-use classes can be found on page 11 of the Engineer’s Report (Attachment 1).For non-residential parcels the cost went up 2%per ESU,whether their sewer fee went up or down relative to last year is a function of whether they used more or less water than last year.The ESU for various non- residential land uses is calculated per the following equation: ESU = commercial water consumption gallons per day (GPD)/260 GPD per single family residential unit (SFRU) The Engineer’s Report contains detailed information about the annual charge and the charge to be applied to the parcels.Also included in the report is information about the use of revenue,annual increases,and Proposition 218 considerations.Every parcel in the City is subject to the sewer service charge. This public hearing provides an opportunity for the City Council to hear and consider all protests to the annual levy of the sewer service charge.In the absence of a majority protest by property owners within the City of Hermosa Beach,the City Council may order implementation of City sewer service charge with the attached Engineer’s Report (Attachment 1)on the FY 2020-21 property tax rolls by adopting the Resolution (Attachment 2),Council action on the staff recommendation is required in order to place the annual charge on the tax roll. If Council finds that protest is made by the property owners of a majority of separate parcels of property described in the Engineer’s Report,then the Resolution and Engineer’s Report shall not be adopted and the charges shall be collected separately from the tax roll,by a method to be determined, and shall not constitute a lien against any parcel or parcels of land. The City must notify each property owner in writing of the CPI-W increase at least thirty (30)days before the effective date of the adjustment per state law.To meet this requirement,the enclosed draft notice (Attachment 3) must be sent prior to June 1, 2020, after Council adoption of the resolution. A notice of the May 12,2020 public hearing was published in the Easy Reader on April 30,2020 and May 7,2020 (Attachment 4).At the City Council’s May 12,2020 meeting,Council opened the public hearing,accepted public comment,and continued the public hearing to its May 26,2020 meeting.As set forth above,staff’s recommendation is for the City Council to hold a public hearing and (1)make a finding that there is no majority protest by property owners within the City;and (2)adopt the enclosed Resolution,with attached Engineer’s Report,and place the sewer service charge on the annual County of Los Angeles Tax Roll. Update on Sewer Repair Projects: The collected sewer funds are used for our routine sewer cleaning,planned repairs and rehabilitation,and emergency repairs.This year,approximately 1.5 miles of sewer main was repaired City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 3 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0237 rehabilitation,and emergency repairs.This year,approximately 1.5 miles of sewer main was repaired and rehabilitated as part of the most recent sewer improvements project.Additionally,over 60 maintenance access holes were repaired and rehabilitated.This project cost was approximately $2,000,000.The next anticipated sewer project is scheduled to start construction in the latter part of next Fiscal Year 20-21 and will repair and rehabilitate approximately 2.4 miles of sewer line and 70 maintenance access holes for an estimated cost of $2,200,000.The sewer master plan recommended approximately 10-miles of sewer main repairs.Once next year’s project is completed, the City will have made 24%of those recommended repairs.Accordingly,the City will have approximately 75% of needed repairs remaining for an estimated cost of $12,000,000.

Cooper, RCE 31572 April 23, 2020 Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 1 INTRODUCTION In order to effectively establish a capital improvement program to implement the needed wastewater system improvements, an equitable method of prioritizing projects must be established. In general, sewer facilities having the greatest degree of defects and deterioration at the present time will receive higher priority than those which are in better conditions. In 1994, an Infrastructure Management Project Report, prepared by ITX, analyzed the City’s sewer network and also recommended a rehabilitation program to address the immediate needs of the sewer network. In 2008, considering the City’s 85 years old sewer network of concrete and clay pipes, City embarked on the implementation of a Sanitary Sewer Master Plan that updated the Sewer portion of the Infrastructure Management Project Report prepared by ITX in 1994. Building on the work the City had completed through the undertaking of previous studies and projects, the Sewer Master Plan was prepared based upon newly collected data from the 2008 Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) inspection of the entire sewer system. This Sewer Master Plan, dated April 2009 and revised March 2011, currently lists the existing defects and deficiencies and identifies projects for improvements for a 10 year program. At the end of the ten year rehabilitation program, CCTV inspection of the entire sewer system is recommended for monitoring any remaining or newly developed physical deterioration and maintenance problems. This would allow the City to continue with development and implementation of a cost effective rehabilitation program that will insure the long-term integrity of the sewer system and service to the community. The City is now considering to bond for needed capital improvements using a portion of the proposed sewer service charges to pay annual debt service to address major repairs and rehabilitation of the sewer system based on the priority set in the Sewer Master plan. In support of this endeavor, the City has updated their Sewer Master Plan as of 2017. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS As was previously stated, the City has undertaken rehabilitation work of its sewer system based on programs outlined in previous studies that recommended the City to plan for the eventual replacement of the entire sanitary sewer system. City is estimated to currently have 194,000 lineal feet of sanitary sewer pipes, 880 sewer manholes, one (1) main wastewater pump station and three (3) small beach restroom pumps. In 2008, Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) inspection of the entire sewer system, that was accessible, was completed and prioritized for repair in the 2009 Sewer Master Plan. Of the 194,000 lineal feet of sanitary sewer pipes in the system, 38,000 lineal feet of sewer pipes were not accessible by CCTV due to obstructions. These pipes are likely to be badly deteriorated considering their age and limited accessibility for routine maintenance. Therefore, these pipes are considered a priority for rehabilitation and repair. Again in 2016-2017, CCTV was conducted for the entire sewer system in conjunction with the latest 2017 Master Plan. The current Master Plan recommends over $11 million in improvements over the next ten years. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 2 Since 1985, approximately 180 manholes have been rehabilitated or replaced. The remaining 700 manholes are over 85 years old. Some of the existing manhole openings do not provide adequate access and hinder the City’s use of closed circuit television inspection and emergency bypass equipment. Some of the manhole bottoms are deteriorated and need to be replaced. It is anticipated that in the next ten (10) years about 15% of the remaining 700 manholes will have to be reconstructed and or replaced. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 3 This Engineer’s Report (“Report”) has been prepared for the City of Hermosa Beach commencing in Fiscal Year 2015/2016 and consists for four (4) parts: PART A – PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS Contains a summary of the improvements within the City to be maintained and the proposed services and activities to be funded by the sewer services charges.

Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 4 PART A – PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS CITY SEWER IMPROVEMENTS1 The sewer improvements within the City of Hermosa Beach for which the City proposes to be responsible for maintenance and operation of the sewer system as well as levy and collect charges to maintain such improvements, includes, but is not limited to, and may be generally described as follows: • Approximately 194,000 feet of main sewer lines consisting of the following: o 28,868 linear feet (LF) of 6" sewer lines; o 149,993 linear feet (LF) of 8" sewer lines; o 4,204 linear feet (LF) of 10" sewer lines; o 5,071 linear feet (LF) of 12" sewer lines; o 1,254 linear feet (LF) of 15" sewer lines; o 1,150 linear feet (LF) of 18" sewer lines; o 805 linear feet (LF) of 21” sewer lines; and o 2,655 linear feet (LF) of 24” sewer lines. • 880 Sewer Manholes • Four Lift/Pump station: 394 – 21 inch and 2,629 – 24 inch o Three (3) Beach restroom pumps o The Strand - 34th The specific plans and specifications for the city-owned sewer improvements are incorporated and contained in the sewer construction plans and specifications for the various sewer segments of the sewer system within the City of Hermosa Beach. These plans and specifications are voluminous and are not bound in this report but by this reference are incorporated and made a part of this report. The specific plans and specifications for the city-owned sewer improvements are on file in Public Works at the City. OPERATIONS, MAINTENANCE AND SERVICES The City of Hermosa Beach proposes to collect funds to cover the expenses for the overall operation, maintenance and servicing of the city-owned sewer system as well as funds that may be necessary to pay for capital outlay expenditures including repairs, rehabilitation or replacement of equipment or facilities. The following is a summary of the services and activities associated with the maintenance, operation, servicing and capital outlay expenditures for the City's sewer system. The frequency, extent and/or level of the services and activities identified below may be modified based on available funding and priorities as determined by the City: Preventive Maintenance One of the City's primary objectives for assuming responsibility and management of the operation and maintenance of the City's sewer system is to provide a cost-effective and efficient program that will ensure the integrity and long term stability of the sewer system. This is best accomplished by implementing preventive maintenance program that addresses the entire sewer system. This preventive maintenance should include, but is not limited to, regular inspection of the sewer manholes, pipes, siphons, pump stations and related facilities as well as regular cleaning, repair, and related activities as warranted. These activities are intended to detect and correct potential problems 1 Information from the City of Hermosa Beach Master Plan. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 5 before they develop into major problems. The following is a general summary of those preventive maintenance activities.  Sewer Line and Manhole Inspection - The interior and exterior of manholes to be inspected (at least once a year) for any structural defects, sewage flow condition, presence of vermin or rodents, deleterious industrial waste, odors, and any signs of unusual settlement around or evidence of debris within the manholes and along sewer alignments.  Sewer Line Cleaning - Sewer lines will be videoed and cleaned by hydro jet or rodding as needed based on a scheduled that ensures each sewer line is addressed at least every three-five years. The actual frequency of cleaning may vary based on inspection records. Sewer lines known to cumulate grease, garbage grinds, or sand may be addressed more frequency with possible monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual cleaning schedule. Those areas prone to root growth may be periodically rodded or chemically treated.  Sewage Pump Stations - All pump stations are equipped with telemetry/alarm systems and will be inspected at least once a week. Pumps and motors will be inspected and lubricated, control mechanisms and valves will be checked and adjusted as necessary. Pump station equipment will be repaired or modified as required.  Gas Trap Manholes and Siphons - Inspected and cleared of any stoppages or flow restrictions on a monthly basis.  Drop Manholes - Inspected and cleared of stoppages and flow restrictions on variable frequencies based on prior inspection records.  Vermin and Rodent Control - On an as-needed basis, sewers infested by insects will be chemically treated, and those infested by rodents will be baited. Capital Outlay, Rehabilitation and Replacement The City plans to bond for needed capital improvements using a portion of the proposed sewer service charge to pay annual debt service to address major repairs and rehabilitation of the sewer system on a priority basis. However, in addition the City plans to develop and implement a long-term replacement and refurbishment program that will ensure not only the short term integrity of the sewer system, but also the long-term integrity and continue service to the community. As the city's sewer collection system ages, the risk of failure will ultimately increase due to deterioration, collapse, blockage, excessive inflow and infiltration, overflow, and other potential service interruptions. Therefore, while the scheduling of major repairs, rehabilitation projects and replacement projects will ultimately be implemented based on available funding, highest priority will be given to structural deficiency. However, by developing a long-term replacement and refurbishment program with the goal of eventually addressing the entire system, the City may also address hydraulic deficiency in addition to the structural deficiency. Sewer System Management  Mapping - As-built plans of the sewer facilities will be maintained by the City. Data on the plans, such as system locations and alignment, pipe material, size, etc., will be maintained and stored electronically by the City. These maps will be available and utilized by the field crews for work scheduling and responding to emergencies, and will be updated to reflect any changes in the system. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 6  Work Scheduling - Field crew activities will be recorded and tract by the City utilizing various forms including, but not limited to service requests, cleaning reports, sewer maintenance daily reports, overflow reports forms, project work orders, etc. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 7 PART B – ESTIMATED COST OF THE IMPROVEMENTS The net amount to be charged on the lots or parcels within the City is based on an initial estimate of the annual cost and expenses for the maintenance, operation, servicing of the City's existing sewer system improvements as well as the funding deemed appropriate and necessary for future capital improvements and reserves (Replacement funding). It is estimated that sewer capital improvements are needed at $11 million for the current planning period. It is the City’s plan to spend $3 Million in cash plus finance an additional $8 Million to fund needed improvements. USE OF REVENUE O & M/year (range) $250,000 - $450,000 Available for Improvement Financing / Year $700,000 - $900,000 $ Charge/1 ESU (Single Family Resident) $115/year* *Fiscal Year 2015/2016 Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 8 PART C – CHARGE CALCULATION AND PROPOSED CHARGES The sewer service charge for 2020/2021 is being reestablished by the City. The charge multiplied by the Equivalent Sewer Units assigned to each parcel will be the charge for each parcel. The Equivalent Sewer Unit (ESU) determination for each parcel is described below. LAND USE ESU Single Family 1.0 Condominiums 1.0 Multi Family 0.6 Sewage Generation Factors The City of Hermosa Beach updated their sanitary sewer master plan in April 2009, March 2011, and again in June 2017. A numeric relationship between the various lots and parcels is necessary for the allocation of the costs of sewer maintenance among the lots and parcels. It is customary to relate the various land uses to the single family residential lot which is established as one Equivalent Sewage Unit (ESU), and all other lots and parcels are related proportionally to the single family residential lot. Based on sewage generation rates, a typical single family lot generates 260 gallons per day in Los Angeles County2. Therefore, for purposes of comparison of the various land uses for lots and parcels, 260 gallons per day is designated as the equivalent of 1 ESU. Non-residential Land Uses The ESU for various non-residential land uses is calculated by the following equation: ESU = [Commercial Water Consumption GPD]/260 GPD per SFRU Single family residential units will be charge at 1.0 ESU per parcel, the multi-family residential units will be charged at 0.6 ESU per parcel and condominiums at 1.0 ESU per parcel as they are similar to single family residents in use. For the non-residential, it was allocated by water consumption values for all of Hermosa Beach from information provided by California Water Services Company annually. Vacant parcels of any use are charged 0.5 ESU. 2West Hollywood Sewer Charge Report. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 10 Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 9 Government Facilities and Parcels There are several parcels that receive sewer service that are owned and operated by local government. Proposition 218 requires that each parcel not pay more than the proportional cost of providing the service. Therefore, because these government parcels use the sewer service, they are included in the computation of the charge and are charged. CALCULATION OF THE CHARGE The sewer service charge is based on the direct cost of providing the service. These costs include staff, rent, utilities, and other costs as needed for sewer repair and improvements as described earlier in this report. The $115 charge per ESU for 2015/2016 was adopted by the City Council on April 28, 2015 and approved on June 23, 2015 is multiplied by the ESUs for each residential parcel and by water consumption for non-residential to determine the charge for each parcel. The 2016/2017 revenue for the sewer services was funded by the total of the charges from the parcels using $115/ESU times 1.7% Annual increase. The sewer charge for Fiscal Year 2016- 2017 was $116.96/ESU. The charge for 2017/2018 was 2% greater than 2016/2017 for a charge of $119.30/ESU for 2017/2018. The charge of $119.30/ESU was increased by 2% for a charge of $121.69/ESU for fiscal year 2018- 2019. The charge of $121.69/ESU was increased by 2% for a charge of $124.12/ESU for fiscal year 2019-2020. Last year’s charge of $124.12/ESU will be increased by 2% for a charge of $126.60 for fiscal year 2020-2021. See Appendix for information determining the 2%. ANNUAL INCREASES Because the costs of providing the sewer service may increase over time, beginning July 1, 2016 and each July thereafter, the charge per ESU established in 2015/2016 shall be increased by the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim (this used to be referred to as Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County, it is a continuous index linked to the previous index), CA Area (CPI), including all items as published by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics as of March 1 of each year, not to exceed two percent (2%) per year. The annual increases can only be authorized for a five year period. To increase the charge after the initial five year period, would require a new Proposition 218 hearing. PROPOSITION 218 CONSIDERATIONS Proposition 218, which the voters of the State of California passed on November 5, 1996, contains requirements for the imposition of a fee or charge for property related services. Requirements for fees and charges are contained in Section 6 of Article XIII D. Paragraph (b) describes the requirements for new, existing, or increased fees and charges, as: (1) Revenues shall not exceed the funds required to provide the service. (2) Revenues shall not be used for any other purpose. (3) The amount of the fee or charge imposed upon any parcel or person as an incident of property ownership shall not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to the parcel. Attachment 1 City of Hermosa Beach – Sewer Services Charge Engineer’s Report Commencing Fiscal Year 2020/2021 | 10 (4) No fee or charge may be imposed unless the services is actually used by or immediately available to the owner of the property in question. (5) No fee or charge shall be imposed for general governmental services, i.e., police, ambulance, library, where the service is available to the public at large in substantially the same manner as it is to the property owners. This report and recommended charges complies with all five of these requirements. 1. Revenues generated by this charge will not exceed funds required to provide sewer services and shall not be used for any other purpose, besides what has been described herein. 2. The sewer charge is the proportional cost of provided service to the parcels in the City and the charge is for actual use or is immediately available to the property in question. Due to the number of parcels in the City of Hermosa Beach that will be subject to the Sewer Service Charge, the Parcel Charges (a listing of the Assessor's Parcel Numbers to be levied the proposed charge amounts) is not contained in this Report, but will be filed with the City Clerk in an electronic format prior to the public hearing regarding the levy and collection of the charges for Fiscal 2020/2021.

Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.12 of Title 13 of the City of Hermosa Beach Municipal Code and Article 4 of Chapter 6 of Part 3 of Division 5 of the California Health and Safety Code, commencing with Section 5470, the City Council is authorized to levy the annual sewer service charge (the "Charge") and to have such Charge collected on the tax roll in the same manner, by the same persons, and at the same time as, together with and not separately from, the general taxes of the City. SECTION 2. The City's consultant prepared under Staff supervision and filed a written report containing a description of each parcel of real property within the City to which the Charge is applicable (the “Identified Parcels”) and the amount of the Charge for each such Identified Parcel for fiscal year 2020-2021 computed in conformity with Section 13.12.030 of the City of Hermosa Beach Municipal Code and approved such Engineer's Report as filed. SECTION 3. Following notice duly given in accordance with law, the City Council has held a full and fair public hearing regarding the levy and collection of the proposed charge for fiscal year 2020-2021. All interested persons were afforded the opportunity to hear and be heard. The City Council considered all oral statements and all written protests made or filed by any interested person. A majority protest does not exist against the annual levy of the sewer service charge and all oral and written protests to the levy and collection of the proposed charge for fiscal year 2020- 2021 are hereby overruled by the City Council. SECTION 4. Based upon its review of the Engineer's Report, a copy of which has been presented to the City Council and which has been filed with the City Clerk and the Department of Public Works, the City Council hereby finds and determines that (i) each parcel in the City benefits from receiving sewer service (ii) the net amount to be assessed upon each parcel of real property for fiscal year 2020-2021 in accordance with the Engineer's Report is apportioned by a formula and method that fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits received by each parcel, and (iii) no charge is imposed on any parcel that exceeds the reasonable cost of the benefits conferred on that parcel.

Parcels that are owned or used by any county, city, city and county, special district or any other local governmental entity, the State of California or the United States shall be charged unless the City demonstrates by clear and convincing evidence that such parcels receive no benefit from the proposed service. SECTION 6. As set forth in the Engineer’s Report, the annual sewer service charge is in compliance with the provisions of the City of Hermosa Beach Municipal code and Article XIIID of the California Constitution and the City Council has complied with all laws pertaining to the levy of an annual charge pursuant to the City of Hermosa Beach Municipal Code and Article XIIID of the California Constitution. Following a majority protest hearing, the initial ordinance enacting the sewer service charge also included a provision that beginning on July 1, 2016 and each July 1 through July 1, 2020, the sewer service charge would be increased by the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-W) for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County, CA Area (now renamed Los Angeles-Long Beach- Anaheim, Los Angeles and Orange County Area) including all items published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as of March 1 of each year, not to exceed two percent (2%) per year. The only increase in the charge is to reflect CPI, which by its nature reflects the increased costs in the region. Therefore, the increase does not exceed the cost of providing the service, as it only reflects increases in costs. The City will mail notice to all property owner of the annual CPI increase as required under state law. SECTION 7. The annual sewer service charge is levied without regard to property valuation. SECTION 8. The City Council hereby finds and determines that the cost of the service that is financed by the annual sewer service charge for fiscal year 2020-2021 is approximately $1,098,000. SECTION 9. The City Council hereby determines and imposes the annual sewer service charge for fiscal year 2020-2021, at the rates set forth in the Engineer’s Report of $126.60 per Equivalent Sewer Unit, which is in compliance with the provisions of the City of Hermosa Beach Municipal code and Article XIIID of the California Constitution. SECTION 10. The adoption of this resolution constitutes the levy of an annual sewer service charge against parcels of property in the City of Hermosa Beach for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 2020 and ending June 30, 2021. SECTION 11. The County Auditor of Los Angeles County shall enter on the County Assessment Roll opposite each parcel of land the amount of the annual sewer service charge, and such charge, and each installment of the charge, shall be collected in the same manner, and shall be subject to the same penalties and priority of lien as, other charges and taxes fixed and collected by, or on behalf of the City. After collection by the County, the net amount of the charge, after deduction of any compensation due the County, shall be paid to the Finance Director.

The following people are eligible for a 100% rebate of the annual sewer fee for the one personal residence in which the rebate applicant resides: REBATE CRITERIA •Seniors 65 years of age or older and have annual income of $75,000 or under •People who are permanently disabled as a result of a physical or mental impairment and have annual income of $75,000 or under Contact the Finance Dept. with questions regarding the rebate at (310) 318-0225. Each year, an annual Sewer Service Charge is levied upon each parcel of real property in the City of Hermosa Beach for the overall operation, maintenance and servicing of the City’s sewer system as well as the funds deemed appropriate and necessary to pay for capital improvements and reserves. On July 1, 2020, the City’s current rates will increase by the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-W) for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA Los Angeles and Orange County Area with a cap of 2%. The increase for the upcoming year is 2%. The rate increase is necessary to ensure the funding for the sewer program keeps up with cost increases for maintenance services and capital improvement projects. The formula for the calculation of the 2019-2020 sewer service charge rates was computed by multiplying $124.12 by the number of equivalent sewage units (“ESUs”) for the current land use. For fiscal year 2020-2021, the base charge will be increased by the 2% CPI to $126.60. The ESU for various non-residential land uses is calculated by the following equation: ESU = [commercial water consumption GPD]/260 GPD per SFRU The charge per ESU for non-residential land uses is $126.60/ESU for fiscal year 2020-2021.

BY ORDER OF the City of Hermosa Beach, City Clerk Attachment 4 City of Hermosa Beach Staff Report City Hall 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Staff Report REPORT 20-0285 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of May 26, 2020 CITY COUNCIL REVIEW AND RECONSIDERATION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION DECISION TO APPROVE A REQUEST TO CONVERT RESTAURANT SPACE (FORMERLY OCCUPIED BY ABIGAIL’S) AND RETAIL SPACE (CURRENTLY OCCUPIED BY MIKE’S GUITAR PARLOR) TO AN EXPANDED AND REMODELED OFFICE SPACE WITH FAÇADE MODIFICATIONS, RESULTING IN A NET EXPANSION OF 2,916 SQUARE FEET AT AN EXISTING COMMERCIAL BUILDING LOCATED AT 1301 MANHATTAN AVENUE, AND DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) (Community Development Director Ken Robertson) Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution sustaining the Planning Commission’s decision approving the Precise Development Plan Amendment (PDP)20-1 to allow a conversion of restaurant space (formerly occupied by Abigail’s)and retail space (currently occupied by Mike’s Guitar Parlor)to an expanded and remodeled office space with façade modifications, resulting in a net expansion of 2,916 square feet at an existing commercial building located at 1301 Manhattan Avenue,and determining that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Executive Summary: At its meeting of April 21,2020,the Planning Commission considered the request by Frank Buckley, the applicant on behalf of Marlin Equity Partners,at 1301 Manhattan Avenue,for a conversion of restaurant space and retail space to an expanded and remodeled office space and façade modification.The Planning Commission approved the request as proposed by a 5-0 vote.The proposal to convert all existing uses to general office with the additional square footage for office space would not only bring the building into compliance with current parking standards but would provide a surplus of three off-street parking spaces.Remodels and/or additions greater than 1,500 square feet in any zone (excluding single-family residences)require approval of a Precise Development Plan. The City Council voted to review this decision. City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 8 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0285 Background: The property is located within the (C-2)Downtown Commercial zoning district and is located on the west side of Manhattan Avenue near the intersection of Pier Avenue.The project site was initially approved by Planning Commission with Resolution 96-9 (Precise Development Plan)and 96-5803 (Conditional Use Permit)on February 20,1996 (later amended and adopted by City Council with City Council Resolution 03-624)allowing the construction and operation of a new two-story multi-use commercial building.The current mixed-use building operates under Precise Development Plan (PDP)14-7 and the incorporated Conditional Use Permit (CUP)approved on October 21,2014 per P.C. Resolution No. 14-16. On April 21,2020,the Planning Commission held a virtual public hearing to consider the request.The attached Planning Commission staff report (Attachment 4)provides a complete project analysis. There were three representatives for the applicant along with the applicant himself who spoke on the item.The applicant's team raised the point that the proportion of office uses to retail and restaurant uses in Hermosa Beach's downtown is disproportionately low when compared to the City of Manhattan Beach which is seen as having a thriving downtown which he contributes to their ratio of office to retail/restaurant being closer to 50/50.There were no other members of the public who came forward to speak on the item.However,there were six e-comments submitted,three were in support of the project and three were opposed.The Chamber of Commerce and the Beach House both submitted letters of support for the project noting that the additional office space would increase foot traffic in the Downtown area and would continue to contribute to the City’s economic development. Some of the concerns raised in the letters of opposition were the loss of retail and restaurant uses on the ground level in the Downtown and the CEQA determination. The Planning Commission discussed concerns regarding the potential impacts resulting from construction of the project,potential noise impacts from the second floor terrace,and the use of screens or amplified sound in the outdoor terrace areas.It was determined that the existing Municipal Code requirements and proposed conditions of approval would adequately address any potential impact.After deliberation,the Commission voted unanimously to approve P.C.Resolution 20-07 (Attachment 2), thereby approving the Precise Development Plan Amendment. On April 28,2020,the City Council initiated review of the Planning Commission’s decision. Councilmember Armato raised concerns regarding retail and restaurant space conversions into office space and requested this matter be analyzed and discussed further at a later date.In light of Councilmember Armato’s comments,Mayor Pro Tem Massey and Councilmember Fangary initiated the power of City Council to review the Planning Commission decision of the project to consider the preservation of retail space and restaurant space at the project site. City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 2 of 8 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0285 Discussion: Marlin Equity Partners has been located within the city for over nine years and currently operates in four different buildings that are located along Pier Avenue and Manhattan Avenue.Their employees range from entry-level positions,such as receptionist,through experienced investment managers and corporate executives.The project would allow the applicant to consolidate some of the business operations at the project site,while maintaining the three other locations in the City.Marlin Equity has expressed interest in maintaining their four locations within the City,since Hermosa Beach has both the environment and amenities that is befitting with their business culture. Planning Commission The Planning Commission unanimously approved the applicant’s proposal to convert existing restaurant and retail space to office space and to add additional square footage to the building to expand the existing general office use.The Planning Commission citied the following reasons as grounds for their approval: ·The proposal would bring the subject site into compliance with current parking code requirements.When the project was originally approved in 1996 the project was deemed conforming to parking requirements (77 off-street street spaces required and provided).Code amendments overtime increased the required parking demand and the existing building and the mixture of uses were deemed nonconforming to parking.Parking requirements for the proposed conversation of the existing restaurant space and the total proposed general office space yield a total off-street parking requirement of 74 spaces;while the subject site has 77 existing off-street parking spaces.Thus,the subject site would be brought into compliance with current parking standards and would provide a surplus of three off-street parking spaces.The Planning Commission determined that bringing the site into compliance with code required parking while also providing additional parking beyond what the use requires was a benefit of the project. ·The Commissioners supported the proposed design.They agreed that the proposed architectural design was transformative,and that the proposed permeable glass façade was aesthetically pleasing and pedestrian-orientated. ·The project was also seen as a benefit to the City because it would reduce the number of late- night alcohol establishments,which meets the goals of the City's late-night alcohol intensification ordinance.Code Enforcement and Police Department staff noted that the reduction of a late-night alcohol establishment would reduce the level of complaints that were once received from the previous restaurant tenant.General office uses tend to result in less negative impacts to surrounding residential uses.The Planning Commission felt that the reduction of one late-night alcohol establishment brought the city closer to its target goal of 1 City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 3 of 8 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0285 reducing the total number of these establishments.1 1 On September 27,2012,City Council adopted Resolution Number 12-6816 (Attachment #6)to amend Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.40.080 to incorporate previsions for late-night alcohol serving establishments and established a cap on the number of late-night on-sale establishment citywide.Pursuant to Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.40.080(B)(2)(a)the limit on the number of late-night on-sale establishments citywide shall be thirty-six.There are currently 39 late-night on-sale establishments. Through the approval of this project, the total number of establishments would be reduced to 38. ·It was noted that the proposed ground-floor office was appropriate due to the subject site not directly fronting Pier Avenue or Pier Plaza;instead it fronts Manhattan Avenue.Although the project would reduce retail and restaurant uses on the ground floor of Downtown,the proposed expansion would increase foot traffic and support surrounding Downtown business, such as the Beach House. Ground-floor uses in Downtown General office uses are allowed by right in the C-2 zoning district where this project is located and are not precluded from the ground floor.While the municipal code does contain reference to encouraging ground floor uses,which support pedestrian activity,that is only referenced specifically in the adjacent SPA-11 zone,which includes properties that front on Pier Avenue.Office uses are encouraged on upper floors within the projects’Community Commercial General Plan Land Use Designation. PLAN Hermosa indicates that,“first floor street front businesses,”in the Downtown District,“should include retail,restaurants,and other sales tax-generating commercial uses to promote lively pedestrian activity on Downtown streets,”(PLAN Hermosa pg.90).Retail,restaurant and other similar uses are encouraged on the ground floor because they are seen as businesses that activate the Downtown.However,the intent of the Downtown District Character area is also to enhance the building form and orientation and to preserve the pedestrian realm along Pier Avenue while transforming the realm on Hermosa Avenue.PLAN Hermosa also indicates that the intended land use distribution located within the Downtown should serve the daily needs and activities of residents and visitors and accommodate coastal-related recreation and commercial uses,which serve the year -round needs of residents.As part of their deliberation,the Planning Commission cited competing goals in PLAN Hermosa;but also noted that the project is overall consistent with PLAN Hermosa, because it increases daytime activity and the project supports the City’s economic vitality. Hermosa Beach,like many other communities,is facing an economic downturn as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.This downturn,along with the trend of retail businesses moving towards e- commerce,is likely to lead to retail businesses vacating ground floor tenant spaces.In order to address the potential impact to the economic vitality of Downtown,the City Council discussed the issue during their May 12, 2020 meeting. To understand how market trends have affected the City of Hermosa Beach,an analysis of business City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 4 of 8 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0285 To understand how market trends have affected the City of Hermosa Beach,an analysis of business licenses that were active within the Downtown District between 2014 and 2019 was conducted.The analysis found that,in essence,the total number of businesses in the Downtown District have remained consistent.Methods to support the businesses Downtown to assist them with maintaining their economic liveliness were also discussed.As a result of the discussion,the City Council referred the matter to the Economic Development Committee to further consider options. General Plan Consistency: The existing multi-tenant building is located within the Community Commercial (CC)General Plan land use area,the purpose of which is to provide opportunities and locations for uses designed to serve the shopping,dining,and employment desires of the entire community.Appropriate land uses include retail stores,restaurants,professional and medical offices,and personal services.Uses on the ground floor are reserved for retail,restaurant,and other sales-tax revenue generating uses, while offices and personal service uses are encouraged on upper floors (PLAN Hermosa pg.76).The establishment is also located within the Downtown District Character Area.Located in the Downtown District near the intersection of Manhattan Avenue and Pier Avenue gives this designation the unique opportunity to preserve the pedestrian realm along Pier Avenue while increasing the inventory of much desired daytime uses. This project has been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan.Relevant Goals and Policies are listed below: Governance Goal 5. Small beach town character is reflected throughout Hermosa Beach. Policies ·5.1 Residential and commercial compatibility.Provide a balance between residential and commercial uses and strive to ensure their compatibility. ·5.7 Visitor and resident balance.Recognize the desire and need to balance visitor-serving and local-serving uses as a key to preserving character and the economic vitality of the community.

RESOLUTION 20-XXXX A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, SUSTAINING THE PLANNING COMMISSION DECISION TO APPROVE A PRECISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENT TO CONVERT A VACANT RESTAURANT SPACE (FORMERLY OCCUPIED BY ABIGAIL’S) AND RETAIL SPACE (CURRENTLY OCCUPIED BY MIKE’S GUITAR PARLOR) TO EXPANDED AND REMODELED OFFICE SPACE WITH FAÇADE MODIFICATIONS, RESULTING IN A NEW EXPANSION OF 2,916 SQUARE FEET AT AN EXISTING COMMERCIAL BUILDING LOCATED AT 1301 MANHATTAN AVENUE, AND DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA). THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was filed by Frank Buckley on behalf of Marlin Equity Partners for a Precise Development Plan Amendment 20-1 to convert a vacant restaurant space (formerly occupied by Abigail’s) and retail space (currently occupied by mike’s guitar parlor) to expanded and remodeled office space with façade modifications, resulting in a new expansion of 2,916 square feet at an existing commercial building located at 1301 Manhattan avenue, and determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application on April 21, 2020, at which time testimony and evidence, both oral and written, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission approved the application unanimously as presented by staff. Section 3. On April 28, 2020, the City Council, pursuant to Section 2.52.040 of the Municipal Code, initiated review of the Planning Commission decision. Section 4. On May 26, 2020, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing to review the Planning Commission’s decision, at which time testimony and evidence, written and oral, and the record of the decision of the Planning Commission was presented to and considered by the Council. The City Council considered a request, as approved by the Planning Commission to convert a vacant restaurant space (formerly occupied by Abigail’s) and retail space (currently occupied by mike’s guitar parlor) to expanded and remodeled office space with façade modifications, resulting in a new expansion of 2,916 square feet. Section 5. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as defined in Section 15301(e)(2), Class 1 Exemption of the CEQA Guidelines. Class 1 exemptions include modifications to existing structures that include a negligible expansion. Guideline Section 15301(e)(2) limits the increase to no more than 10,000 square feet, if the project is in an area Page 2- PDP Amendment 20-1 where all public services and facilities are available to allow for maximum development permissible in the General Plan and it is not located within an environmentally sensitive area. The proposed project meets all of these criteria. Moreover, none of the exceptions to the Categorical Exemption apply; nor will the project result in a significant cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place over time, or have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic highway or scenic resource within a state scenic highway. The site is not located on a hazardous waste site and will not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. Section 6. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the City Council makes the following findings pertaining to the application for the Precise Development Plan Amendment pursuant to the criteria in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) Section 17.58.030 1. Distance from existing residential uses in relation to negative effects; The subject property is located approximately 80 feet from the nearest (R-3) Multiple-Family Residential zone to the north of the subject site. In addition, the property directly to the north contains an existing legal nonconforming Multiple-Family residential condominium located within the (C-2) Downtown Commercial Zone. The proposed general office use is expected to be less impactful than the existing restaurant use. General offices typically operate between 8:00 am ad 6:00 pm, whereas the restaurant space is authorized for late night operations. The proposed office use will also continue to be conducted wholly indoors within the building, unlike the former restaurant that had outdoor dining. Outdoor uses, within the existing and proposed outdoor terrace, are incidental to the office use and will serve as a break area for employee use only. Conditions of approval have been incorporated into this resolution to limit outdoor uses and prohibit events within the existing and proposed outdoor terrace. 2. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking in relation to actual need; The existing commercial building contains a mixture of retail, restaurant, and office tenants. When the project was originally approved in 1996 the project was deemed conforming to parking requirements (77 spaces required and provided). Due to code amendments overtime, parking requirements have increased, rendering the existing building and mixture of uses as legal nonconforming to parking requirements (98 spaces are now required and 77 spaces are provided). The proposal to convert all existing uses to general office and the additional square footage for general office will bring the building into compliance with current parking standards. The City, through an agreement with the Coastal Commission as part of our certified Coastal Land Use Plan (LUP) (certified in 1981 and amended as recently as 2004), approved a temporary parking reduction for office and retail. However, the agreement has since expired and parking standards have reverted back to the one space per 250 square feet of gross floor area parking ratio. After the proposed addition, the building will be 18,478 square feet. Since general office is parked at one space for every 250 square feet of gross floor area, this building is required to provide 74 parking spaces. The applicant will maintain the existing 77 off-street parking spaces on-site. Of the 77 off-street parking spaces, 21 parking spaces are compact spaces and 2 spaces will be provided in tandem. Pursuant to HBMC Section 17.44.100(C), “[p]arking lot design standards for commercial and manufacturing uses are amended to allow the inclusion of thirty (30) percent compact car spaces in lots of ten or more stalls.” Thus, no more than 22 spaces can be compact. Page 3- PDP Amendment 20-1 The existing and proposed outdoor terrace will not increase parking demands because the outdoor use is incidental to the office use and will serve as a break area for employees only. Pursuant to HBMC Section 17.26.050(B)(3), “[w]here incidental uses are not conducted within a building, no part of the area devoted to the incidental uses shall be considered as part of the required parking facilities.” Therefore, no additional parking spaces are required for the incidental outdoor use. 3. The combination of uses proposed, as they relate to compatibility; A mixture of tenants/uses can result in various land use impacts. The approved use mixture includes retail, restaurant, personal service, and general office. The approved uses have different operation hours and parking requirements, which affect parking and traffic impacts on surrounding properties. The proposal to convert all existing uses to general office will reduce the potential conflict between uses and their operations. The proposed office building will be occupied by a single tenant, allowing the building to operate under consistent business operation hours. Further, and as noted in Criteria 1, 2, 7 and 8, this approval will not result in other potential impacts. 4. The relationship of the estimated generated traffic volume and the capacity and safety of streets serving the area; The project will not impact traffic volume or the capacity or safety of streets serving the area as the project is converting existing retail and restaurant uses to general office. Retail and restaurant uses typically generate higher peak hour traffic and average daily traffic than general office uses. Furthermore, the parking requirements for general office is lower, resulting in the site being brought into compliance with the City’s parking standards. 5. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing establishments in the area; The building will be occupied by a single tenant, Marlin Equity Partners. The applicant intends to remove all existing signage from the previous tenants (Abigail’s and Mike’s Guitar Shop). Although a Comprehensive Sign Program is not required for a single tenant building, all proposed signs will be reviewed under a separate permit to insure compliance with applicable code sections. The proposed architectural finishes will be compatible with the existing building elevations. Façade finishes along the main pedestrian entrance abutting Manhattan Avenue, include ultra- clear glass windows and doors, and wood siding to match the existing architectural elements. Materials along the east building elevation are designed to integrate the project with surrounding pedestrian orientated businesses along Pier Avenue. The project’s proposed ultra-clear glass windows and doors will facilitate visual interaction between the streetscape and the proposed office use. The proposed design is consistent with the pedestrian orientation of the area. The applicant’s design proposes over 80 percent glazing in the east building elevation, which is visible from the pier avenue intersection. "Glazing" means a transparent part of a wall, typically made of glass or plastic, in order to maximize visibility for the pedestrian on the sidewalk. The glazing will Page 4- PDP Amendment 20-1 encourage the interaction of the streetscape and the interior of the business. Visibility of indoor activities from the sidewalk will assist in making the area pedestrian friendly. The proposed design is therefore compatibly with both residential and commercial uses and the glass doors, windows, and landscape features adjacent to the sidewalk create accessibility and visibility for pedestrians. 6. Building and driveway orientation in relation to sensitive uses, e.g., residences and schools; The proposed project has been designed so that all entrances, driveways and outdoor uses are facing directly east towards Manhattan Avenue or directly west towards the alley (Palm Drive) and are orientated away from residential uses to the north of the subject site. The primary pedestrian entrance remains fronting Manhattan Avenue and driveway entrances to the two-level parking structure are accessed from Manhattan Avenue and the alley, Palm Drive. The existing and proposed outdoor terrace is located on the southwest side of the building, and is orientated towards views of the ocean and away from residential uses and zones located to the north. Planning Commission has incorporated a condition of approval stating that the windows along the north building elevations shall be fixed and inoperable which will further reduce potential impacts to the adjacent residential uses. The applicant provided a roof plan, which demonstrates compliance with the 30-foot height limit. Planning Commission has confirmed that the proposal will comply with the height limit and a condition of approval has been incorporated to this resolution requiring height shall fully comply with the 30-foot height limit. Precise building height compliance shall be reviewed at the time of Plan Check, to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director. 7. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use; Operation hours for the existing restaurant use are between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. daily, with outdoor dining permitted until 12:30 a.m. The existing restaurant is also allowed to conduct live entertainment between 4:00 p.m. and 1:15 a.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9:00 a.m. and 1:15 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. This project will revoke the existing Conditional Use Permit, thereby eliminating the late night operating hours and live entertainment. The proposal will further limit outdoor uses to use of the terrace as a break area for employee use only, incidental to the office use. Conditions have been incorporate into this resolution to limit outdoor uses and prohibit events within the existing and proposed outdoor terrace. Generally, office uses are low impact and generate minimal noise or odor. The majority of the noise, odor, and vibration impacts will be temporary and limited to the construction involved with the addition/remodel. Based on the existing uses and proposed use, it is believed that the proposal will significantly reduce the existing noise and odor impacts generated by the existing approved uses. 8. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services; Marlin Equity has been operating within the City of Hermosa Beach (at 338 Pier Avenue) for approximately ten years, and in 2018, they expanded their offices to 1301 Manhattan Avenue. During the past ten years, the City’s Code Enforcement Division reports that there have been zero code complaints. The City finds that the proposed office expansion will have minimal impacts on the surrounding neighborhood. In addition, restaurant uses typically generate larger Page 5- PDP Amendment 20-1 quantities of trash and thus, have more trash pick-ups than office uses. The proposed office use will likely produce less trash, create less trash pick-ups, reduce traffic on city streets and decrease noise complaints generated from the restaurant’s larger crowds and live entertainment. 9. Adequacy of mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts in quantitative terms; The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act. Thus, mitigation measures are not required due for the proposal project. However, conditions of approval have been added to the draft resolution to reduce potential impacts to those who live, work, and visit the area. 10. Other considerations that, in the judgment of the planning commission, are necessary to assure compatibility with the surrounding uses, and the city as a whole. As noted in the above criteria, approval of the proposed project will not result in the creation of an impact to the surrounding uses and/or the City as a whole. The proposed architecture is consistent with the surrounding buildings. Furthermore, eliminating the restaurant and retail location, in lieu of a general office building, will allow the subject site to serve as buffer between the busy activity of Pier Avenue and the residential use on Manhattan Avenue. Section 7. Based on the foregoing, the City Council hereby approves the request for Precise Development Plan Amendment 20-1 subject to the following Conditions of Approval: 1. The project shall be substantially consistent with the plans and application materials submitted and approved, submitted and approved by the City Council on May 26, 2020.

PRESIDENT of the City Council and MAYOR of the City of Hermosa Beach, California Page 10- PDP Amendment 20-1 ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: _______________________________ ___________________________________ City Clerk City Attorney P.C. RESOLUTION 20-07 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A PRECISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENT 20-1 TO CONVERT A VACANT RESTAURANT SPACE (FORMERLY OCCUPIED BY ABIGAIL’S) AND A RETAIL SPACE (CURRENTLY OCCUPIED BY MIKE’S GUITAR PARLOR) TO AN EXPANDED AND REMODELED OFFICE SPACE WITH FAÇADE MODIFICATIONS, RESULTING IN A NET EXPANSION OF 2,916 SQUARE FEET AT AN EXISTING COMMERCIAL BUILDING LOCATED AT 1301 MANHATTAN AVENUE, AND DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA). The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order as follows: SECTION 1. An application was filed by Sailfish Holdings, LLC, property owners, requesting approval of Precise Development Plan Amendment 20-1 to convert a vacant restaurant space (formerly occupied by Abigail’s) and a retail space (currently occupied by Mike’s Guitar Parlor) to an expanded and remodeled office space with façade modifications, resulting in a net expansion of 2,916 square feet at an existing commercial building located at 1301 Manhattan Avenue, and determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). SECTION 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application on April 21, 2020, at which time testimony and evidence, both oral and written, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission. SECTION 3. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as defined in Section 15301(e)(2), Class 1 Exemption of the CEQA Guidelines. Class 1 exemptions include modifications to existing structures that include a negligible expansion. Guideline Section 15301(e)(2) limits the increase to no more than 10,000 square feet, if the project is in an area where all public services and facilities are available to allow for maximum development permissible in the General Plan and it is not located within an environmentally sensitive area. The proposed project meets all of these criteria. Moreover, none of the exceptions to the Categorical Exemption apply; nor will the project result in a significant cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place over time, or have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic highway or scenic resource within a state scenic highway. The site is not located on a hazardous waste site and will not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. SECTION 4. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission makes the following findings pertaining to the application for the Precise Development Plan Amendment pursuant to the criteria in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) Section 17.58.030: 1. Distance from existing residential uses in relation to negative effects; The subject property is located approximately 80 feet from the nearest (R-3) Multiple- Family Residential zone to the north of the subject site. In addition, the property directly to the north contains an existing legal nonconforming Multiple-Family residential condominium located within the (C-2) Downtown Commercial Zone. The proposed general office use is expected to be less impactful than the existing restaurant use. General offices typically operate between 8:00 am ad 6:00 pm, whereas the restaurant space is authorized for late night operations. The proposed office use will also continue to be conducted wholly indoors within the building, unlike the former restaurant that had outdoor dining. Outdoor uses, within the existing and proposed outdoor terrace, are incidental to the office use and will serve as a break area for employee use only. Conditions of approval have been incorporated into this resolution to limit outdoor uses and prohibit events within the existing and proposed outdoor terrace. 2. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking in relation to actual need; The existing commercial building contains a mixture of retail, restaurant, and office tenants. When the project was originally approved in 1996 the project was deemed conforming to parking requirements (77 spaces required and provided). Due to code amendments overtime, parking requirements have increased, rendering the existing building and mixture of uses as legal nonconforming to parking requirements (98 spaces are now required and 77 spaces are provided). The proposal to convert all existing uses to general office and the additional square footage for general office will bring the building into compliance with current parking standards. The City, through an agreement with the Coastal Commission as part of our certified Coastal Land Use Plan (LUP) (certified in 1981 and amended as recently as 2004), approved a temporary parking reduction for office and retail. However, the agreement has since expired and parking standards have revert back to the one space per 250 square feet of gross floor area parking ratio. After the proposed addition, the building will be 18,478 square feet. Since general office is parked at one space for every 250 square feet of gross floor area, this building is required to provide 74 parking spaces. The applicant will maintain the existing 77 off-street parking spaces on-site. Of the 77 off-street parking spaces, 21 parking spaces are compact spaces and 2 spaces will be provided in tandem. Pursuant to HBMC Section 17.44.100(C), “[p]arking lot design standards for commercial and manufacturing uses are amended to allow the inclusion of thirty (30) percent compact car spaces in lots of ten or more stalls.” Thus, no more than 22 spaces can be compact. The existing and proposed outdoor terrace will not increase parking demands because the outdoor use is incidental to the office use and will serve as a break area for employees only. Pursuant to HBMC Section 17.26.050(B)(3), “[w]here incidental uses are not conducted within a building, no part of the area devoted to the incidental uses shall be considered as part of the required parking facilities.” Therefore, no additional parking spaces are required for the incidental outdoor use. 3. The combination of uses proposed, as they relate to compatibility; A mixture of tenants/uses can result in various land use impacts. The approved use mixture includes retail, restaurant, personal service, and general office. The approved uses have different operation hours and parking requirements which affect parking and traffic impacts on surrounding properties. The proposal to convert all existing uses to general office will reduce the potential conflict between uses and their operations. The proposed office building will be occupied by a single tenant, allowing the building to operate under consistent business operation hours. Further, and as noted in Criteria 1, 2, 7 and 8, this approval will not result in other potential impacts. 4. The relationship of the estimated generated traffic volume and the capacity and safety of streets serving the area; The project will not impact traffic volume or the capacity or safety of streets serving the area as the project is converting existing retail and restaurant uses to general office. Retail and restaurant uses typically generate higher peak hour traffic and average daily traffic than general office uses. Furthermore, the parking requirements for general office is lower, resulting in the site being brought into compliance with the City’s parking standards. 5. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing establishments in the area; The building will be occupied by a single tenant, Marlin Equity Partners. The applicant intends to remove all existing signage from the previous tenants (Abigail’s and Mike’s Guitar Shop). Although a Comprehensive Sign Program is not required for a single tenant building, all proposed signs will be reviewed under a separate permit to insure compliance with applicable code sections. The proposed architectural finishes will be compatible with the existing building elevations. Façade finishes along the main pedestrian entrance abutting Manhattan Avenue, include ultra-clear glass windows and doors, and wood siding to match the existing architectural elements. Materials along the east building elevation are designed to integrate the project with surrounding pedestrian orientated businesses along Pier Avenue. The project’s proposed ultra-clear glass windows and doors will facilitate visual interaction between the streetscape and the proposed office use. The proposed design is consistent with the pedestrian orientation of the area. The applicant’s design proposes over 80 percent glazing in the east building elevation which is visible from the pier avenue intersection. "Glazing" means a transparent part of a wall, typically made of glass or plastic, in order to maximize visibility for the pedestrian on the sidewalk. The glazing will encourage the interaction of the streetscape and the interior of the business. Visibility of indoor activities from the sidewalk will assist in making the area pedestrian friendly. The proposed design is therefore compatibly with both residential and commercial uses and the glass doors, windows, and landscape features adjacent to the sidewalk create accessibility and visibility for pedestrians. 6. Building and driveway orientation in relation to sensitive uses, e.g., residences and schools; The proposed project has been designed so that all entrances, driveways and outdoor uses are facing directly east towards Manhattan Avenue or directly west towards the alley (Palm Drive) and are orientated away from residential uses to the north of the subject site. The primary pedestrian entrance remains fronting Manhattan Avenue and driveway entrances to the two-level parking structure are accessed from Manhattan Avenue and the alley, Palm Drive. The existing and proposed outdoor terrace is located on the southwest side of the building, and is orientated towards views of the ocean and away from residential uses and zones located to the north. Planning Commission has incorporated a condition of approval stating that the windows along the north building elevations shall be fixed and inoperable which will further reduce potential impacts to the adjacent residential uses. The applicant provided a roof plan which demonstrates compliance with the 30-foot height limit. Planning Commission has confirmed that the proposal will comply with the height limit and a condition of approval has been incorporated to this resolution requiring height shall fully comply with the 30-foot height limit. Precise building height compliance shall be reviewed at the time of Plan Check, to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director. 7. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use; Operation hours for the existing restaurant use are between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. daily, with outdoor dining permitted until 12:30 a.m. The existing restaurant is also allowed to conduct live entertainment between 4:00 p.m. and 1:15 a.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9:00 a.m. and 1:15 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. This project will revoke the existing Conditional Use Permit, thereby eliminating the late night operating hours and live entertainment. The proposal will further limit outdoor uses to use of the terrace as a break area for employee use only, incidental to the office use. Conditions have been incorporate into this resolution to limit outdoor uses and prohibit events within the existing and proposed outdoor terrace. Generally, office uses are low impact and generate minimal noise or odor. The majority of the noise, odor, and vibration impacts will be temporary and limited to the construction involved with the addition/remodel. Based on the existing uses and proposed use, it is believed that the proposal will significantly reduce the existing noise and odor impacts generated by the existing approved uses. 8. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services; Marlin Equity has been operating within the City of Hermosa Beach (at 338 Pier Avenue) for approximately ten years, and in 2018, they expanded their offices to 1301 Manhattan Avenue. During the past ten years, the City’s Code Enforcement Division reports that there have been zero code complaints. The City finds that the proposed office expansion will have minimal impacts on the surrounding neighborhood. In addition, restaurant uses typically generate larger quantities of trash and thus, have more trash pick-ups than office uses. The proposed office use will likely produce less trash, create less trash pick-ups, reduce traffic on city streets and decrease noise complaints generated from the restaurant’s larger crowds and live entertainment. 9. Adequacy of mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts in quantitative terms; The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act. Thus, mitigation measures are not required due for the proposal project. However, conditions of approval have been added to the draft resolution to reduce potential impacts to those who live, work, and visit the area. 10. Other considerations that, in the judgment of the planning commission, are necessary to assure compatibility with the surrounding uses, and the city as a whole. As noted in the above criteria, approval of the proposed project will not result in the creation of an impact to the surrounding uses and/or the City as a whole. The proposed architecture is consistent with the surrounding buildings. Furthermore, eliminating the restaurant and retail location, in lieu of a general office building, will allow the subject site to serve as buffer between the busy activity of Pier Avenue and the residential use on Manhattan Avenue.

Dear Madam Mayor and Members of the City Council: This office represents Sailfish Holdings, LLC (“Sailfish”) in the above-referenced matter. This letter addresses the City of Hermosa Beach City Council’s (“City Council”) April 28, 2020, “call-up” of the Planning Commission’s April 21, 2020, approval of Precise Development Plan Amendment 20-1 (“Project”). Sailfish, as the Project applicant, sought the approval for its property located at 1301 Manhattan Ave. (“Property”). The record of the City Council’s April 28, 2020, meeting reveals that the basis for the City Council’s review of the Project is the proposed change of use from a combined mixed retail, commercial and general office use to 100 percent general office. The issue arises from PLAN Hermosa’s (“General Plan”) stated preference for ground-level retail, restaurant and tax-generating uses within the Community Commercial land use designation.1 This letter presents an analysis of the Project’s consistency with the General Plan, as determined by the Planning Commission and the City planning staff. Please note that Sailfish reserves the right to supplement this letter and/or present additional evidence and grounds for approval of the Project up to the date of the hearing on the City Council’s review. 1 See City Council Public Meeting on April 28, 2020, <https://www.hermosabeach.gov/our- community/agendas-minutes-video>. Hermosa Beach City Council May 21, 2020 Page 2 4571.101 / 8766955.3 1. INTRODUCTION (a) The Project. The Project consists of a Precise Development Plan amendment to convert approximately 6,500 square feet of mixed commercial tenant space to general office use and add 2,913 square feet of floor area to expand the general office use of the Property. As noted by City staff in its report for the April 21, 2020, Planning Commission hearing (“Staff Report”), the City approved the existing use on February 20, 1996, through Planning Commission Resolutions 96-9 (Precise Development Plan) and 96- 508 (Conditional Use Permit or “CUP”) (“1996 Project”). The 1996 Project allowed the construction and operation of a two-story multi-use commercial building with parking below and a ground-level restaurant with on-sale general alcohol, outside dining, and incidental live entertainment. The 1996 Project provided 77 spaces, which then conformed to the City’s zoning code. Code amendments after the approval of the 1996 Project increased the required parking ratios, however, rendering the existing building and mixture of uses legally nonconforming. 98 spaces now are required for the existing blend of uses. As part of its current proposal, the Project removes the CUP granting onsite sale of alcohol, late night restaurant and live entertainment uses. The Project also decreases the Property’s use intensity, thereby bringing the Property back into compliance with the City’s current parking requirements. (b) The Project Enhances the Community Commercial and Downtown Districts. The Property lies within the Community Commercial Land Use Designation and Downtown District Character Area. One of the goals of the Community Commercial designation is to facilitate local economic activity with a mix of locally owned and regional/national businesses. (See General Plan, p. 76.) Marlin Equity Partners has been a mainstay within the Hermosa Beach community for over ten years. It currently occupies three office buildings on Pier Avenue, in addition to the Project site.2 The applicant addresses the City’s goal of incorporating businesses whose employees live in close proximity to their work and provide a steady source of patronage of local retail and restaurant uses. (Ibid.) The Project’s proposed change to exclusively general office space advances the General Plan’s goal of distributing an “array” of land uses within the Downtown District. (See General Plan, p. 90.) A saturation of retail and commercial space within the Downtown District may lead to retail turnover, which ultimately can harm the District’s character. The Project’s proposed general office use provides a stable workforce that can patronize neighboring retail and restaurant spaces during their off-peak hours. (See City of Hermosa Beach Downtown Core Revitalization Study (Jan. 2014), p.5-6 2 Marlin Equity Partners is the tenant to these buildings. Sailfish is the owner and lessor. Hermosa Beach City Council May 21, 2020 Page 3 4571.101 / 8766955.3 [“office development, whether on upper floors or in stand-alone buildings, is an important activity that can build economic support for local-serving retail and quality dining establishments”].) The Project’s proposed use furthers the goal of ensuring the Downtown District remains economically viable. (Ibid.) The change to general office use also facilitates the City’s ongoing goal of reducing alcohol CUPs in the Downtown District as it removes the CUP entitling the Property to late night alcohol sales and live entertainment. The Project also improves parking conditions at the site by de-intensifying the Property’s use, establishing conformance to the City’s current parking standards and freeing more on-street parking for neighboring businesses and residences. Finally, the Project proposes a beautiful, pedestrian-oriented change to the Property’s current façade -- a feature Commissioner Rice observed was “transformative” in its effect. The architectural design conforms to the General Plan’s vision for the Downtown District character area by enhancing the Property’s design along Manhattan Avenue and conforms to the City’s high standards for quality aesthetics. Sailfish’s memorandum to the City’s Director of Community Development dated March 11, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference, provides further evidence as to the Project’s conformity with the City’s General Plan, Downtown Core Revitalization Strategy, and the Downtown Core Principles and Guidelines. 2. THE PROJECT CONFORMS TO THE CITY’S GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CODE. (a) The General Plan Provision for Ground Floor Retail Use Applies Only where a Project Contemplates a Blend of Uses that Includes Commercial/Retail/Restaurant. As noted above, the Property lies within the C-2 Downtown Commercial zoning district with a Community Commercial General Plan land use designation in the Downtown District Character Area. (See Staff Report, p. 2.) The General Plan states that the Community Commercial designation provides space for locally oriented commercial uses including retail stores, restaurants, professional and medical offices, and personal services. Uses on the ground floor are reserved for retail, restaurant, and other sales-tax revenue generating uses, while offices and personal service uses are encouraged on upper floors. (General Plan, p. 76.) This provision serves as the impetus for the City Council’s review of the Project. However, nothing in this section -- or in the General Plan as a whole -- mandates that uses in the Community Commercial designation must always incorporate retail, restaurant and sale-tax generating uses on the ground floor; nor can such an interpretation be read into text of the General Plan. Indeed, the City’s Zoning Code expressly allows 100 percent general office projects in the C2 Zone, and, by extension, the Community Commercial designation areas. (See, HBMC, § 17.26.030 [C-1, C-2 Hermosa Beach City Council May 21, 2020 Page 4 4571.101 / 8766955.3 and C-3 land use regulations].) It is a foundational principle of zoning law that a city’s zoning code and general plan must be consistent and that such consistency is presumed. (See, e.g., Friends of Lagoon Valley v. City of Vacaville (2007) 154 Cal.App.4th 807, 816; Citizens of Goleta Valley v. Board of Supervisors (1990) 52 Cal.3d 553, 570; Cal. Gov. Code § 65860, subd. (a).) If the City had intended the General Plan to preclude 100 percent general office uses -- and mandate inclusion of retail or restaurant uses on the ground floors of all buildings located in the Community Commercial designation -- it could have provided for such a requirement in the Zoning Code. It did not. Given the above, it becomes clear that the above language is intended to address blended-use projects that propose to employ retail and/or restaurant in addition to general office. In such cases, the ground floor is to be “reserved” for retail and restaurant, while office “is encouraged” for the upper floors. As the Project contemplates a change of use to general office use only, this language in the Community Commercial land use designation does not apply to the Project. A freestanding, 100 percent general office building is permitted by the Zoning Code and wholly consistent with the General Plan. (b) The General Plan Uses Permissive, not Mandatory, Language. In keeping with the above analysis, the General Plan incorporates inherently permissive language when referring to retail and restaurant uses on the ground floor within the Community Commercial and Downtown District areas. The General Plan states a preference for “reserving” the ground floor for retail and restaurant uses, along with a provision that “encourages” offices uses for upper floors. These terms are examples of words or phrases commonly used to vest the decision-making body with discretion and flexibility in its quasi-judicial role. (See, e.g., Mira Development Corporation of San Diego v. San Diego (1988) 205 Cal.App.3d 1201.) In Mira Development, for instance, the Court of Appeal held that a city council did not abuse its discretion by denying a developer’s subdivision application for multi-family uses even though the city’s general plan housing element stated that the land “should” be developed with multi-family homes. (Mira Development Corporation of San Diego v. San Diego, supra, 205 Cal.App.3d at pp. 1204-1205.) The court noted the city council could take into account other aspects of the general plan when making its decision. (Ibid; see also Corona-Norco Unified School Dist. v. City of Corona (1993) 17 Cal.App.4th 985, 994.) The court’s holding is in harmony with a long line of cases holding that a project “is consistent with the general plan if, considering all its aspects, it will further the objectives and policies of the general plan and not obstruct their attainment.” (Sequoyah Hills Homeowners Assn. v. City of Oakland (1993) 23 Cal.App.4th 704, 719 [“Sequoyah”] see also, (1993) Corona-Norco Unified School Dist. v. City of Corona, supra, 17 Cal.App.4th at 994.) As noted above, if the City had intended to mandate restaurant and retail uses in every instance on the ground floor of structures in the Community Commercial Designation, it could have -- and would have -- done so. The General Plan’s provisions Hermosa Beach City Council May 21, 2020 Page 5 4571.101 / 8766955.3 for the General Plan’s Recreational Commercial designation make clear the distinction between mandatory and permissive language. For the Recreational Commercial designation, the General Plan states, in relevant part, Coastal-related uses and visitor accommodations are the primary uses allowed within the Recreational Commercial Designation. Restaurants, snack shops, entertainment, lodging, retail, beach rentals, and other similar uses are prioritized within this designation and allowed on ground or upper floors. Office and personal service uses are allowed within this designation, provided they are located on upper floors .” (See General Plan, p. 76, emphasis added.) This language reveals that the drafters of the General Plan knew how to provide language mandating allocation of uses between ground-level and upper floors. (See Gananian v. Wagstaffe (2011) 199 Cal.Ap.4th 1532, 1540 [when interpreting whether statutory language should be given mandatory effect, courts should construe the statute as a whole and consider the legislative intent in enacting it].) The City avoided such language in its land use policies for the Community Commercial designation. (c) The Project is in Harmony with the General Plan’s Goals. As noted by the City’s planning staff, a general plan is a guidance or vision document. (See, Staff Report, at p. 8; accord, Bownds v. City of Glendale (1980) 113 Cal.App.3d 875, 881.) A project need not be in perfect conformity with every general plan policy, but it should conform to the larger objectives advanced by the city’s general plan. (Sequoyah, supra, 23 Cal.App.4th 704, 719.) A project is consistent with the general plan if, considering all its aspects, it will further the larger objectives and policies of the general plan and not obstruct their attainment. (Corona-Norco Unified School Dist. v. City of Corona, supra, 17 Cal.App.4th at 994.) In Sequoyah, for example, a city council approved a project despite evidence that the project was consistent with only 14 of 17 applicable general plan policies. (Sequoyah, supra, 23 Cal.App.4th, at p. 719.) The city council approved the project anyway, noting it advanced other, overarching policies of the city’s general plan. (Ibid.) The court concurred. It held that the three other policies were not mandatory in nature. (Ibid.) The court also noted that, “it is beyond cavil that no project could completely satisfy every policy stated in the [general plan], and that state law does not impose such a requirement.” (Ibid., citing Greenebaum v. City of Los Angeles (1984) 153 Cal.App.3d 391, 406-407.) Finally, the court observed that the city had discretion to look beyond strict, technical adherence to general plan policies when the project itself was in harmony with the general plan’s larger goals and objectives. (Ibid; see also Naraghi Lakes Neighborhood Preservation Assn. v. City of Modesto (2016) 1 Cal.App.5th 9, 17, citing San Franciscans Upholding the Downtown Plan v. City and County of San Francisco (2002) 102 Cal.App.4th 656, 678 [a project need only be “in agreement or harmony” with the terms of the applicable plan, not in rigid conformity with every detail therein].) Hermosa Beach City Council May 21, 2020 Page 6 4571.101 / 8766955.3 Unlike the development reviewed in Sequoyah, the Project is harmonious with the City’s General Plan. As noted above, the Project does not conflict with General Plan language concerning ground-floor restaurant/retail and, more importantly, it advances the larger goals and principles of the General Plan and Downtown Core Revitalization Strategy. (See Section 1(b) Infra.) The City Council therefore should uphold the Planning Commission’s approval of the Project. 3. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, among others, the City Council should uphold the General Plan consistency determinations of the Planning Staff and the approval of the Planning Commission. The Project will reduce the intensification of the uses on the Property, bring parking into conformance with the Zoning Code and facilitate the City’s ongoing policy to decrease alcohol CUPs in the Downtown District. Most importantly, the Project will foster long-term economic viability and diversity of the City’s Downtown District. The undersigned will be on hand at the May 26, 2020 hearing to answer any questions. Very truly yours, Michael W.

Executive Summary: The Beach Cities Transit (BCT)Line 109 provides service for a portion of former Line 439 that was discontinued by Metro in 2006.Since that time,Hermosa Beach along with the cities of El Segundo, Manhattan Beach,and Redondo Beach have participated in a cost-share agreement to provide funding for BCT Line 109 operation,which starts from Redondo Beach Riviera Village to LAX City Bus Center.Redondo Beach is a municipal transit operator and annually receives dedicated transit funds under the Formula Allocation Procedures (FAP),which incorporate transit performance data to allocate transit funding.The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) allocates the FAP funds,which consist of dedicated Proposition A and C,Measure R and Measure M funds,in addition to other dedicated transit funding,to the municipal transit operators.BCT Line 109 is funded through this combination of regional FAP transit funds,fare revenues from riders and dedicated Proposition A Local Return Transportation Funds.Redondo Beach estimates BCT Line 109 will be fully-funded by the dedicated transit funding and other State funds. Background: On July 1,2006,Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach entered into a Transit Service Operation Agreement to enable BCT Line 109 to take over public transportation services for the discontinued Los Angeles County MTA Line 439 for a two-year term.Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach subsequently entered into new agreements relating to Line 109 in 2008,2010,2011,2012,2013, City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 5 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0224 subsequently entered into new agreements relating to Line 109 in 2008,2010,2011,2012,2013, 2015,2017 and 2019.The 2019 Agreement expires on June 30,2020,and the participating cities desire to enter into a new agreement on the terms and conditions set forth in the attached agreement. This Agreement would be effective as of July 1,2020,and would have a one-year term expiring on June 30, 2021, given that there is not a need for City funding contribution for FY 2020-2021. Analysis: BCT initially estimated the FAP fund sources will fully cover the operating expenses and costs associated with the installation of Real-Time Information (RTI)capital equipment and systems,and related operation expenses. Therefore, the City’s contribution for FY 2020-21 shall be $0. However,Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19)has impacted current BCT services since March 2020,and may continue into FY 2020-21.In mid-March,BCT followed the majority of Municipal transit operators authorizing rear-door entry on the buses,and stopped the collection of cash and TAP card fares.At the same time,City offices were closed to the public,so all BCT bus pass sales have been cancelled until further notice. On March 23,2020,temporary modified Line 109 schedules were implemented,changing the weekday schedule to a weekend schedule,with cancellation of late trips.Staff continues to monitor ridership,and COVID-19 emergency orders by the Redondo Beach City Manager,and Los Angeles County and the State,to determine future BCT service schedules.Service will be restored to regular service hours as soon as public health conditions improve in Los Angeles County.Public notices and all updates regarding the service modifications were provided to the beach cities partners,and posted on the Beach Cities Transit webpage, and Twitter page @RedondoBeachBCT. While ridership on Line 102 and Line 109 has significantly reduced due to the Safer At Home directives,BCT has a consistent core group of riders who are either essential employees,or taking essential trips. Social distancing is possible on the buses, due to low ridership. Redondo Beach awarded a new agreement with Transportation Concepts,Inc.on May 5,2020 for Fiscal Years 2020-2021 through 2022-2023,and an option to extend two years through Fiscal Year 2024-25.The new agreement with Transportation Concepts will increase the service costs.However, Redondo Beach will have reduced Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)fuel costs,due to the new CNG fueling station that was recently installed at the Redondo Beach public works yard.While the impacts of COVID-19 on dedicated transit funding for the next year are still being determined,BCT will receive an allocation of the Federal Coronavirus Aid,Relief and Economic Security (CARES)Act funding to assist with the funding of COVID-19 related expenses such as operations,cleaning and supplies, and lost revenue. City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 2 of 5 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0224 BCT will fully fund the operating expenses incurred by the transit contractor,and fuel expenses. Operating expenses are incorporated in the service hour rates and include without limitation,driver wages,general administration and overhead,and maintenance costs.In addition,BCT awarded a contract to GMV Syncromatics to provide Real-Time Information (RTI)services on the transit buses and is in the process of installing Real-Time Information (RTI)capital equipment and systems,and related operation expenses.The system is planned to be in operation by September 2020.RTI System expenses include without limitation,capital equipment,passenger/administration interface programs,cellular and internet hosting of RTI services and report management programs.RTI allows passengers to receive real-time,up-to-date transit information provided by vehicle GPS tracking to predict when the next vehicle will arrive at any given transit stop,thereby reducing wait times and the reliance on schedules.This system is expected to improve customer service,increase customer satisfaction,and improved visibility of transit in the community.RTI can be received through phone, website,smartphone applications and SMS text messaging.RTI will also be available to users of Google Maps which will include live arrival and departure times to bus stops and service alerts. Redondo Beach is also moving forward with enhancing future public transit in the South Bay region. The Redondo Beach Transit Center construction contract award was on the Redondo Beach City Council agenda on May 19,2020.The completion of construction of the new transit center,located at 1521 Kingsdale Avenue in Redondo Beach,is Fall 2021 and is planned to be operational by January 2022.The transit center will include 12 bus bays,a passenger waiting area,automated transit ticket machine,driver operator lounge,bike facilities and 339 parking spaces.The transit center will be a major transit connection,served by Metro,Torrance Transit,GTrans,Lawndale Beat,and BCT.In addition, this location is under consideration as a rail stop for the Metro Green Line Rail Extension. General Plan Consistency: PLAN Hermosa,the City’s General Plan,was adopted by the City Council in August 2017.The [enter project description here] supports several PLAN Hermosa goals and policies that are listed below. Mobility Element Goal 3.Public right-of-ways supporting a multimodal and people-oriented transportation system that provides diversity and flexibility on how users choose to be mobile. Policies: ·3.1 Enhance public right-of-way.Where right-of-way clearance allows,enhance public right - of-way to improve connectivity for pedestrians,bicyclists,disabled persons,and public transit stops. ·3.2 Complete pedestrian network.Prioritize investment in designated priority sidewalks to ensure a complete network of sidewalks and pedestrian-friendly amenities that enhances City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 3 of 5 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0224 pedestrian safety, access opportunities and connectivity to destinations. Goal 4.A parking system that meets the parking needs and demand of residents,visitors,and employees in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Policies: ·4.1 Shared parking.Facilitate park-once and shared parking policies among private developments that contribute to a shared parking supply and interconnect with adjacent parking facilities. ·4.4 Preferential parking program.Periodically study and evaluate the current inventory of public parking supply and update the preferential parking program. Fiscal Impact: It was determined that there are no funding shortfalls for the transit service,therefore Redondo Beach is not requesting a City contribution for FY 2020-2021.There is no fiscal impact to the City given that a City funding contribution is not required for FY 2020-2021.Therefore,the City will not appropriate Proposition A funds in the 2020-21 Budget for BCT Line 109. BCT Line 109 Cost Sharing Estimates Discussion for Fiscal Year 2021 The estimated annual operating cost to operate regular service for BCT Line 109 is approximately $1,640,000.The services have been funded by FAP funds,fare and bus pass revenues,and Proposition A Local Return Funds.However,due to the current COVID-19 pandemic,BCT services and projected revenues have been impacted. On March 23,2020,BCT Line 109 services have been modified to a reduced service schedule, operating 26%fewer service hours,pass sales and fare collection have been suspended,and ridership has decreased by 85%.At this time,Redondo Beach staff anticipates this operations model to continue indefinitely,pending directives by the City,the Los Angeles County Public Health Department, and the State. In the past BCT Line 109 budget estimates have been provided,however due to the COVID-19 impacts on service hour operations,fare revenues,and FAP and Local Return Funding,the FY 2020- 21 budget estimates are uncertain.While BCT will also receive Federal CARES Act funding,the fund distribution estimates have not been finalized by MTA at the time of this report.Redondo Beach will provide an estimated budget when the information becomes available. Conclusion: Participation in the joint program with the other beach cities has been a good use of Proposition A transportation funds.Beach Cities Transit schedules are available online (Attachment 2),at various city department public counters,the Hermosa Beach branch county library and the Chamber of Commerce to encourage ridership among local residents.Also,links to this service along with other public transportations options are provided on the Hermosa Beach website.

The Urgency Ordinance requires four-fifths vote of the City Council and if approved,will take effect immediately. Background: On March 4,2020,Los Angeles County declared a local and public health state of emergency in response to the increased spread of COVID-19,the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.On March 12,2020,California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a State of Emergency in response to the increased spread of COVID-19.The President of the United States has also declared a federal emergency as a result of the spread of the COVID-19. On March 16,2020,the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach declared a state of local emergency in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic and imposed certain orders in response to the pandemic. On March 16,2020,Governor Newsom promulgated Executive Order N-28-20,which authorized local governments to exercise their police power to impose substantive limitations on foreclosures and residential and commercial evictions based on nonpayment of rent when the nonpayment of rent arose out of a substantial decrease in household or business income due to the effects of COVID-19. On March 19,2020,the Governor of the State of California,also issued Executive Order N-33-20,an Order of the State Public Health Officer ordering all individuals living in California to stay home or at City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 5 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0301 Order of the State Public Health Officer ordering all individuals living in California to stay home or at their place of residence except as needed to maintain continuity of operations of outlined federal critical infrastructure sectors. On March 19,2020 the Los Angeles County Public Health Officer issued a second countywide order, the Safer at Home For Control of COVID-19 Order,which was further clarified on March 21,2020 and again on April 10,2020 and May 13th This public health order prohibits all public and private group gatherings and events and requires people to stay in their homes with limited exceptions;and requires closure of all non-essential retail businesses,shopping centers,playgrounds for children, bars,nightclubs,movie theaters and all similar gathering places.The purpose of the order is to further restrict,and limit gathering of persons and require closures of non-essential retail businesses in an effort to stem or slow the spread of the virus.Restrictions are constantly evolving to prevent the spread of COVID-19.As of the drafting of this report,the Governor has authorized some limited retail and outdoor recreation venues to reopen and the County of Los Angeles updated its Safer at Home Order on May 13,2020 to begin the move into stage 2 of the County’s Roadmap to Recovery.The restrictions have been in place for nearly two months and according to a recent report from Los Angeles County, the Stay at Home Orders are likely to be in place for another three months. On March 24 and April 14,2020,the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach adopted Urgency Ordinances which temporarily suspended foreclosures and residential and commercial evictions for the nonpayment of rent resulting from COVID-19-related financial impacts through May 31,2020 ( Attachments 2 and 3).On April 7,2020,there were 6,910 confirmed cases of COVID-19,and 169 deaths in Los Angeles County.As of May 21,2020,those numbers had risen to 40,857 cases and 1970 deaths in Los Angeles County alone,while the stay at home orders are in place.The recitals and findings for the City’s Urgency Ordinances remain applicable here. Analysis: The degree of health and economic impact is unprecedented and unknown.Unemployment numbers are higher than ever with millions of people filing for unemployment and the city has a tremendous interest in preventing widespread homelessness and supporting the purpose behind safer-at-home directives issued by federal, state and county health authorities. EVICTION PROTECTION THROUGHOUT THE STATE In addition to the City’s local ordinances, eviction protection has been provided from other sources. The Governor’s Executive Order N-28-20 (“Order 28-20”),effective March 16,2020 through May 31, 2020,creates statewide protections against evictions.Order 28-20 authorizes local governments to halt evictions in two ways.First,it suspends the preemptive effect of applicable state laws on local regulation of residential and commercial evictions.The order permits cities to use their police power to impose restrictions on residential and commercial tenant evictions resulting from certain financial impacts of COVID-19 without any concern of state preemption through May 31,2020,namelyCity of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 2 of 5 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0301 impacts of COVID-19 without any concern of state preemption through May 31,2020,namely reduced income or out-of-pocket medical expenses caused by COVID-19.The Order also temporarily protects tenants from eviction by authorizing cities to enact legislation that suspends judicial foreclosures (Code Civ.Proc.§§725a et seq.),unlawful detainers (Code Civ.Proc.§§1161 et seq.),“and any other statutory cause of action that could be used to evict or eject a residential or commercial tenant after foreclosure.”Importantly and consist with the Order,the city’s ordinance does not relieve a tenant of the obligation to pay rent or restrict a landlord’s ability to recover rent due after the period of emergency.Consistent with the Order,the city’s ordinances are in effect through May 31, 2020. The next executive order affecting evictions was issued by Governor Newsom on March 27,2020. Executive Order N-37-20,extends the deadline to respond to an eviction complaint by 60 days for any tenant who,from March 27 through May 31,is served a complaint seeking to evict the tenant for nonpayment of rent.To receive the extension,the tenant must satisfy specified requirements.The tenant must be current on rent payments at the time Order 37-20 was issued.The tenant must also notify the landlord in writing before rent is due,or no later than seven days after it is due,that he or she cannot pay the entire rent for financial reasons related to COVID-19.The City’s ordinance says that the tenant must provide notice within 30 days after rent is due.The tenant’s inability to pay must be verified with documentation (e.g.termination notice,pay stub,medical bills,etc.),but it need not be provided until the payment of back-due rent.Protected tenants are still obligated to repay the entire rent owed to landlords in a timely manner and will be subject to eviction enforcement once the executive order expires.The order also prohibits,through May 31,the Sheriff from enforcing any writ of possession to evict protected tenants Comparing the two orders,Order 37-20 delays nonpayment evictions without requiring cities to adopt local legislation mirroring the order.In effect,Order 28-20 gives local governments the option to suspend evictions,halt court actions that could result in eviction,and afford renters the ability to pay rent at a later date but does not require them to do so.Order 37-20,on the other hand,applies uniformly across the state and requires no local legislation.Tenants facing financial difficulties as a result of COVID-19 are still subject to unlawful detainer actions (unless a local ordinance pursuant to Order 28-20 prohibits them) and may be evicted after May 31, 2020. Effective April 6,2020,the California Judicial Council also approved eleven temporary emergency rules to be added to the California Rules of Court.Emergency Rule 1,in essence,prevents unlawful detainer actions filed on or after April 6 to proceed,bars entry of default for any defendant who failed to appear in an action filed on or after April 6 (unless excused under an executive order),and sets or continues trial dates for at least 60 days,unless contrary to public health and safety.The rules Remains effective until 90 days after the Governor lifts the state of emergency.Thus,tenants have some statewide relief from evictions generally. On April 14,2020,the County Board of Supervisors amended its county eviction moratorium.TheCity of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 3 of 5 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0301 On April 14,2020,the County Board of Supervisors amended its county eviction moratorium.The resolution extends the county eviction moratorium to incorporated areas of the County;but,exempts “cities that have local eviction moratoria in place.”The County’s resolution extends the repayment period to one year and is effective through June 30th.The county ordinance requires notice to landlords of inability to pay within 7 days (the city ordinance allows 30 days).The county’s ordinance also prohibits no-fault evictions through June 30,2020.The County’s ordinance does not address foreclosures. There is also an array of eviction protection bills pending in the state legislature for consideration now that the legislature is back in session. We do not know if or when the Governor’s eviction orders will be extended beyond May 31.The City Council desires to provide more assurances to renters that they will not be evicted after May 31, 2020. The web of regulation is complicated and this situation is unprecedented.The applicable rules continue to change and evolve and we are monitoring the situation closely.As of the time of writing this report,we do not know if the Governor’s Orders will be extended;but,it is likely that the state and local emergency period will extend well beyond May 31.As such,the stated justification for preventing mass commercial and residential evictions will remain beyond Mary 31.Even if evictions are not being processed through the courts,there is value in having a local ordinance that tailors the eviction protections to the community’s specific needs and sets out the repayment protocols after the local emergency.The practical reality of this situation is that financially impacted tenants will not be able to repay back rent the day the emergency order is lifted,and repayment provisions are important to achieve the stated purpose of the ordinance (and the state orders).As such and given the all of the interests at play for both the landlord and tenants,the city may consider extending the local ordinance.However,the City should proceed cautiously and slowly in its efforts to protect commercial and residential tenants and manage any risk associated with regulating evictions in the time of a global health pandemic. In order to prevent confusion for tenants from the complicated web of state and county eviction protections,the City Attorney’s office recommends extending the local ordinances in short increments.This means the local eviction protection (and rent deferral before repayment period) would remain in place until July 31,2020,at which time the Council can assess the status of the local emergency and the efficacy of the ordinance in relationship to the state and county protections.This will allow the city to revise local regulations as necessary as federal,state and county regulations evolve.This is a complex and unprecedented area of the law,and the legal analysis underlying these ordinances should also be revisited periodically.Accordingly,the attached ordinance proposes to extend the local eviction moratoria through July 31, 2020.

Findings. A. The findings set forth in Ordinance No. 20-1407U are still applicable and incorporated herein by reference. B. The City Council desires to extend the Hermosa Beach commercial and residential eviction and foreclosure moratorium urgency ordinance to prevent uncertainty and confusion for residents associated with multiple state and county regulations governing evictions during the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide certainty for residents on the processes in place to repay deferred rent. C. This Ordinance is adopted pursuant to the City's police powers and powers afforded to the city in the time of a national, state, county and local emergency during an unprecedented health pandemic, such powers being afforded by the State Constitution, State law and HBMC Chapter 2.56 to protect the peace, health, and safety of the public. The Hermosa Beach City Council finds that this ordinance is necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health, and safety of residents living within the City and finds urgency to approve this ordinance immediately based on the facts described herein and detailed in the staff report. Under Government Code Section 8634, this ordinance is necessary to provide for the protection of health, life and property. SECTION 2. Section 6 of Ordinance No.20-1407U is amended to read as follows. All other provisions of the Ordinance remain in place. Ordinance No. 20-1407U shall remain in effect until July 31, 2020. In order to prevent inconsistencies, the Director of Emergency Services may suspend the effectiveness of any provision in this ordinance in the event that the President of the United States, Congress, Governor of the State of California or California State Legislature or other body with jurisdiction adopts an order or legislation that similarly prohibits evictions for failure to pay rent by individuals impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. SECTION 3. Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word of this ordinance is found to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Ordinance. SECTION 4. Environmental Review. 65270.00001\32968356.1 The City Council finds that adoption and implementation of this ordinance is not a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as that term is defined by CEQA guidelines (Guidelines) sections 15061(b)(3), and 15378(b)(5). The effect of the proposed amendment will be to maintain the status quo and extend the existing urgency ordinance for an additional month. No new development will result from the proposed action. No impact to the physical environment will result. The City Council also alternatively finds that the adoption and implementation of this ordinance is exempt from the provisions of CEQA as an administrative activity by the City of Hermosa Beach, in furtherance of its police power, that will not result in any direct or indirect physical change in the environment, per sections 15061(b)(3), and 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines, as well as CEQA Guidelines section 15064(e) (economic regulations). SECTION 5. Urgency Declaration; Effective Date. The City Council finds and declares that the adoption and implementation of this ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation and protection of the public peace, health and safety as detailed above and as the City and public would suffer potentially irreversible displacement of commercial and residential tenants resulting from evictions for failure to pay rent during the COVID-19 crisis. During this local emergency, and in the interest of protecting the public health and preventing transmission of COVID-19, it is essential to avoid unnecessary housing displacement, to protect the City’s affordable housing stock, and to prevent housed individuals from falling into homelessness during a time of abnormal economic conditions, especially given state and county directives to stay at home. Promoting stability amongst commercial tenancies is also conducive to public health, allowing businesses to follow the advice and directives of public health officials to close and allowing employees to avoid public contact during times of a public health crisis without fear of imminent eviction or foreclosure. Loss of income as a result of COVID-19 may inhibit City residents and businesses from fulfilling their financial obligations, including payment of rent. By extending the local eviction moratorium ordinance for through July 31, 2020, the City Council desires to prevent uncertainty and confusion for tenants associated with multiple state and county regulations governing evictions during the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide certainty for tenants on the processes in place to repay deferred rent after the initial period of moratorium. The length of the period of federal, state and local emergency is unknown at this time and it is prudent to revisit these emergency response measures as the unprecedented situation and legal landscape evolve. The initial Urgency Ordinance is already in place and these amendments require immediate action so the ordinance does not expire. Under Government Code Section 8634 and HBMC Chapter 2.56, this ordinance is necessary to provide for the protection of life and property for the reasons set out herein. The Council therefore finds and determines that the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety, and protection of life and property, require that this Ordinance be enacted as an urgency ordinance pursuant to Government Code section 36937 and take effect immediately upon adoption by four-fifths of the City Council. SECTION 6. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same, or the summary thereof, to be published or posted in the manner required by law. 65270.00001\32968356.1 PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this ____ day of _______, 2020. ________________________________________________________________________ PRESIDENT of the City Council and MAYOR of the City of Hermosa Beach, California ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: __________________________ _________________________ Eduardo Sarmiento, City Clerk Michael Jenkins, City Attorney Page 1 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 ORDINANCE NO. 20- 1407U AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 20-1406U TO AMEND THE TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON FORECLOSURES AND EVICTIONS DUE TO NONPAYMENT OF RENT BY RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL TENANTS IMPACTED BY THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19), AND SETTING FORTH THE FACTS CONSTITUTING SUCH URGENCY The City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach does ordain as follows: SECTION 1. Findings. A. International, national, state, and local health and governmental authorities are responding to an outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus named “SARS-CoV-2,” and the disease it causes which has been named “coronavirus disease 2019,” abbreviated COVID-19, (“COVID-19”). B. On March 4, 2020, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and Department of Public Health declared a local emergency and local public health emergency to aid the regional healthcare and governmental community in responding to COVID- 19. C. On March 4, 2020, the Governor of the State of California declared a state of emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the state prepare for a broader spread of COVID-19. D. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States of America declared a national emergency and announced that the federal government would make emergency funding available to assist state and local governments in preventing the spread of and addressing the effects of COVID-19. E. On March 16, 2020, the City Council proclaimed the existence of a local emergency to ensure the availability of mutual aid and an effective City response to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”). F. On March 16, 2020, the Governor of the State of California issued Executive Order N-28-20, authorizing local governments’ through their police power to impose substantive limitations on residential or commercial evictions for nonpayment of rent for tenants financially impacted by COVID-19 through May 31, 2020. Page 2 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 G. On March 16, 2020, the Los Angeles County Public Health Officer issued an order countywide that (1) prohibits gatherings where at least 50 or more people are expected to attend, (2) puts limits and regulations on gatherings of 10-49 people, (3) limits restaurants to drive-through/takeout/delivery only, and (4) closes bars (that don’t serve food), gyms, movie theaters, etc. H. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the California Department of Health, and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health have all issued recommendations including but not limited to strict adherence to social distancing guidelines, canceling or postponing group events, working from home, and other precautions to protect public health and prevent transmission of this communicable virus. Other counties throughout the state have issued essentially “shelter in place” directives. I. On March 19, 2020, the Los Angeles County Public Health Officer issued a second countywide order, the Safer at Home for Control of COVID -19 Order, which was further clarified on March 21, 2020. This public health order prohibits all public and private group gatherings and events and requires people to stay in their homes with limited exceptions; and requires closure of all non-essential retail businesses, shopping centers, playgrounds for children, bars, nightclubs, movie theaters and all similar gathering places. The purpose of the order is to further restrict and limit gathering of persons and require closures of non-essential retail businesses in an effort to stem or slow the spread of the virus. J. On March 19, 2020, the Governor of the State of California, also issued Executive Order N-33-20, an Order of the State Public Health Officer ordering all individuals living in California to stay home or at their place of residence except as needed to maintain continuity of operations of outlined federal critical infrastructure sectors. K. As of the date of this ordinance and in order to prevent further exposure, many businesses have imposed work from home policies; meetings, events and social gatherings are cancelled as people remain at home; customers are not patronizing restaurants and stores or hiring domestic help or travelling. With more closure of all non-essential businesses and people working from home, less of the workforce will be patronizing restaurants, hotels and other retail establishments that employ hourly workers, which is expected to lead to hourly cutbacks and employee terminations. L. As a result of the public health emergency and the precautions recommended by health authorities, many tenants in Hermosa Beach have experienced or expect soon to experience sudden and unexpected income loss. M. The Governor of the State of California has stated that individuals exposed to COVID-19 may be temporarily unable to report to work due to illness caused by COVID-19 or quarantines related to COVID-19 and individuals directly affected by COVID-19 may experience potential loss of income, health care and medical coverage, and ability to pay for housing and basic needs, thereby placing increased Page 3 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 demands on already strained regional and local health and safety resources, including shelters and food banks. N. Most, if not all, local schools are closed to prevent further spread of COVID-19. These school closures will cause children to have to remain at home, leading to many parents adjusting their work schedules to take time off work, whether paid or unpaid. Hourly wage earners are unlikely to be paid for time off. The inability to work due to school closures will economically strain those families who cannot afford to take off time from work to stay at home O. The situation is unprecedented and evolving rapidly. Further economic impacts are anticipated, leaving tenants vulnerable to eviction. P. This Ordinance is temporary in nature and only intended to promote stability and fairness within the residential and commercial rental market in the City during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, and to prevent avoidable homelessness thereby serving the public peace, health, safety, and public welfare and to enable tenants in the City whose income and ability to work is affected due to COVID-19 to remain in their homes. Q. In the interest of public health and safety, as affected by the emergency caused by the spread of COVID-19, it is necessary to exercise authority to adopt this ordinance related to the protection of life and property, to ensure residents can remain in their homes and prevent proliferation of homelessness and further spread of COVID-19. Displacement through eviction and foreclosure creates undue hardship for tenants through additional relocation costs, stress and anxiety, and the threat of homelessness due to the lack of alternative housing, and lack of moving services and supplies as stores and businesses close. During the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, affected tenants who have lost income due to impact on the economy or their employment may be at risk of homelessness if they are evicted for non-payment as they will have little or no income and thus be unable to secure other housing if evicted. R. People experiencing homelessness are especially vulnerable to the spread of COVID-19 due to an inability to practice social distancing and a lack of access to health care. The Governor has ordered the State to take extraordinary m easures to secure shelter for homeless populations during this emergency to limit exposure to and spreading of COVID-19. Widespread evictions of tenants vulnerable to eviction due to financial hardship occurring due to COVID-19 would exacerbate the challenge of sheltering the homeless during this emergency and increase the risk of spread of COVID-19. S. Promoting stability amongst commercial tenancies is also conducive to public health, allowing businesses to follow the advice and directives of public health officials to close, and allowing employees to avoid public contact, during times of a public health crisis without fear of imminent eviction. The state and county health Page 4 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 officials have ordered most commercial businesses to close and restaurants are limited to take out and deliver only. The rapid, immediate and unexpected loss of revenue from closure is devastating to local businesses. T. The City desires to prohibit evictions due to non-payment of rent for residential and commercial tenants where the failure to pay rent results from income loss resulting from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). U. The day after the Urgency Ordinance No. 20-1406U was adopted, Governor Gavin Newsom, on March 25, 2020, announced a financial relief package negotiated with participating financial institutions (“Financial Relief Package”). See https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/03/25/governor-gavin-newsom-announces-major- financial-relief-package-90-day-mortgage-payment-relief-during-covid-19-crisis/. By agreement with participating lenders, borrowers economically impacted by COVID-19 may apply for mortgage payment forbearances for up to 90 days. V. Under the Financial Relief Package, for at least 60 days, participating financial institutions also will not initiate foreclosure sales or evictions, consistent with the institutions’ applicable guidelines. As of the time of the Governor’s announcement, participating financial institutions included Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo, and roughly 200 state-chartered banks, credit unions, and loan servicers. A searchable updated list of participating institutions and their contact information can be viewed by going to the California Department of Business Oversight website at https://dbo.ca.gov/covid19-updates-fi/. W. Unlike the Urgency Ordinance No. 20-1406U, the Governor’s Financial Relief Package provides protection from not only judicial foreclosure, but from foreclosure sales in general. The package, however, only applies to those mortgagors owing payments to one of the participating financial institutions, and may not include all City of Hermosa Beach (“City”) properties. X. The City desires to protect mortgagors within its jurisdiction whose lenders have not yet elected to participate in the Financial Relief Package from judicial foreclosures, as authorized by Governor Newsom’s Executive Order N-28-20. This Ordinance is adopted pursuant to the City's police powers and powers afforded to the city in time of national, state, county and local emergency during an unprecedented health pandemic, such powers being afforded by the State Constitution, State law and the Chapter 2.56 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code to protect the peace, health, and safety of the public. SECTION 2. Interim Urgency Ordinance No. 20-1406U is amended in its entirety to read as follows below. SECTION 3. Temporary Moratorium on Evictions for Non-Payment of Rent by Residential Tenants Impacted by the COVID-19 Crisis. Page 5 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 A. During the period of local emergency declared in response to COVID-19, no landlord shall endeavor to evict a tenant for nonpayment of rent if the tenant demonstrates that the tenant is unable to pay rent due to financial impacts related to COVID-19 B. A landlord who knows that a tenant cannot pay some or all of the rent temporarily for the reasons set forth above shall not serve a notice pursuant to CCP 1161(2), file or prosecute an unlawful detainer action based on a 3-day pay or quit notice, or otherwise seek to evict for nonpayment of rent. A landlord knows of a tenant’s inability to pay rent within the meaning of this ordinance if the tenant, within 30 days after the date that rent is due, notifies the landlord in writing of lost income and inability to pay full rent due to financial impacts related to COVID -19, and provides documentation or explanation to support the claim. For purposes of this ordinance, “in writing” includes email communications to a landlord or the landlord’s representative with whom the tenant has previously corresponded by email. Any medical or financial information provided to the landlord shall be held in confidence, and only used for evaluating the tenant’s claim. C. For purposes of this ordinance “financial impacts related to COVID-19” include, but are not limited to, tenant lost household income as a result of any of the following: (1) being sick with COVID-19, or caring for a household or family member who is sick with COVID-19; (2) lay-off, loss of hours, or other income reduction resulting from business closure or other economic or employer impacts of COVID-19; (3) compliance with a recommendation from a government health authority to stay home, self-quarantine, or avoid congregating with others during the state of emergency; (4) extraordinary out-of-pocket medical expenses; or (5) child care needs arising from school closures related to COVID-19. D. This ordinance applies to nonpayment eviction notices and unlawful detainer actions based on such notices, served or filed on or after the date on which a local emergency was proclaimed. E. This ordinance grants a defense in the event that an unlawful detainer action is commenced in violation of this ordinance. Violation of this ordinance shall be punishable as set forth in Chapter 2.56 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code. F.

A landlord may not charge or collect a late fee or interest for rent that is delayed for the reasons stated in this ordinance; nor may a landlord seek rent that is delayed for the reasons stated in this ordinance through the eviction process. A landlord shall not commence an eviction during the six months after the end of the local emergency, so long as the tenant pays rent in a timely manner after the period of local emergency and is repaying the past due rent that accrued during the emergency period. Nonpayment of rent in accordance with the terms of this ordinance shall not be grounds for eviction of a tenant even after expiration of the local emergency. To the extent it applies, this ordinance is intended to be more restrictive than Civil Code Section 1946.2 by further limiting the reasons for termination of a residential tenancy during the six month repayment period. Landlords are strongly encouraged to offer payment plans to tenants after the period of local emergency, which may go beyond the six Page 6 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 month repayment period upon mutual written agreement of the parties.

Temporary Moratorium on Evictions for Non-Payment of Rent by Commercial Tenants Impacted by the COVID-19 Crisis. A. During the period of local emergency declared in response to COVID-19, no commercial landlord shall endeavor to evict a tenant for nonpayment of rent if the tenant demonstrates that the tenant’s businesses is subject to the Orders referenced in Section 1 above or is otherwise limited or closed (voluntarily or by mandate) to prevent or reduce the spread of COVID-19 and the tenant demonstrates lost income and inability to pay rent as a result of such limitation or closure or other demonstrated financial impact related to COVID-19. B. A landlord knows of a tenant’s lost income and inability to pay rent within the meaning of this Order if the tenant, within 30 days after the date rent is due, notifies the landlord in writing of the lost income and inability to pay rent due to a limitation or closure of the tena nt’s business related to COVID-19, with appropriate supporting documentation. If a tenant suffers only a partial loss of income, the tenant shall pay the pro-rated share of their rent that corresponds to the income they generated during the period of loss. For purposes of this ordinance, “in writing” includes email communications to a landlord or the landlord’s representative with whom the tenant has previously corresponded by email. All financial information provided to the landlord shall be kept in confidence and only used for evaluating the tenant’s claim or enforcing this provision. C. This Ordinance grants a defense in the event that an unlawful detainer action is commenced in violation of this ordinance. Violation of this ordinance shall be punishable as set forth in Chapter 2.56 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code. D. Nothing in this ordinance shall relieve the tenant of liability for the unpaid rent, which the landlord may seek after expiration of the local emergency and the tenant must pay within six months of the expiration of the local emergency. A landlord may not charge or collect a late fee or interest for rent that is delayed for the reasons stated in this ordinance; nor may a landlord seek rent that is delayed for the reasons stated in this ordinance, through the eviction process during or after the period of local emergency.

Temporary Suspension on Residential and Commercial Foreclosures. A.

Nothing in this ordinance shall relieve the mortgagor of liability for any unpaid mortgage payments, which the mortgagee may seek after expiration of the local emergency and the mortgagor must pay within six months of the expiration of the local emergency, unless a different time is agreed to between the parties. A mortgagee may not charge or collect a late fee or penalty for payments that are delayed for the reasons stated in this ordinance.

In accordance with the Governor of the State of California’s Executive Order N-28-20, this ordinance shall remain in effect until May 31, 2020. In order to prevent inconsistencies, the Director of Emergency Services may suspend the effectiveness of any provision in this ordinance in the event that the President of the United States, Congress, Governor of the State of California or California State Legislature or other body with jurisdiction adopts an order or legislation that similarly prohibits evictions and foreclosures for failure to pay rent by individuals impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. SECTION 7. Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word of this ordinance is found to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Ordinance. SECTION 8. Environmental Review. The City Council finds that adoption and implementation of this ordinance is not a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as that term is defined by CEQA guidelines (Guidelines) sections 15061(b)(3), and 15378(b)(5). The effect of the proposed amendment will be to maintain the status quo. No new development will result from the proposed action. No impact to the physical environment will result. The City Council also alternatively finds that the adoption and Page 8 of 8 20-1407 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 implementation of this ordinance is exempt from the provisions of CEQA as an administrative activity by the City of Hermosa Beach, in furtherance of its police power, that will not result in any direct or indirect physical change in the environment, per sections 15061(b)(3), and 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines, as well as CEQA Guidelines section 15064(e) (economic regulations). SECTION 9. Urgency Declaration; Effective Date. The City Council finds and declares that the adoption and implementation of this ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation and protection of the public peace, health and safety as detailed above and as the City and public would suffer potentially irreversible displacement of commercial and residential tenants resulting from evictions and foreclosures for failure to pay rent during the COVID-19 crisis. During this local emergency, and in the interest of protecting the public health and preventing transmission of COVID- 19, it is essential to avoid unnecessary housing displacement, to protect the City’s affordable housing stock, and to prevent housed individuals from falling into homelessness, especially given state and county directives to stay at home. Promoting stability amongst commercial tenancies is also conducive to public health, allowing businesses to follow the advice and directives of public health officials to close and allowing employees to avoid public contact during times of a public health crisis without fear of imminent eviction or foreclosure. Loss of income as a result of COVID-19 may inhibit City residents and businesses from fulfilling their financial obligations, including payment of rent and mortgages. Under Government Code Section 8634 and HBMC Chapter 2.56, this ordinance is necessary to provide for the protection of life and property for the reasons set out herein. The Council therefore finds and determines that the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety, and protection of life and property, require that this Ordinance be enacted as an urgency ordinance pursuant to Government Code section 36937 and take effect immediately upon adoption by four-fifths of the City Council. SECTION 10. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same, or the summary thereof, to be published or posted in the manner required by law. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 14th day of April, 2020. ________________________________________________________________________ PRESIDENT of the City Council and MAYOR of the City of Hermosa Beach, California ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: __________________________ _________________________ City Clerk Michael Jenkins, City Attorney Page 1 of 8 20-1406 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 ORDINANCE NO. 20-1406U AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH ENACTING A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON FORECLOSURES AND EVICTIONS DUE TO NONPAYMENT OF RENT BY RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL TENANTS IMPACTED BY THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19), AND SETTING FORTH THE FACTS CONSTITUTING SUCH URGENCY The City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach does ordain as follows: SECTION 1. Findings. A. International, national, state, and local health and governmental authorities are responding to an outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus named “SARS-CoV-2,” and the disease it causes which has been named “coronavirus disease 2019,” abbreviated COVID-19, (“COVID-19”). B. On March 4, 2020, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and Department of Public Health declared a local emergency and local public health emergency to aid the regional healthcare and governmental community in responding to COVID- 19. C. On March 4, 2020, the Governor of the State of California declared a state of emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the state prepare for a broader spread of COVID-19. D. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States of America declared a national emergency and announced that the federal government would make emergency funding available to assist state and local governments in preventing the spread of and addressing the effects of COVID-19. E. On March 16, 2020, the City Council proclaimed the existence of a local emergency to ensure the availability of mutual aid and an effective City response to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”). F. On March 16, 2020, the Governor of the State of California issued Executive Order N-28-20, authorizing local governments’ through their police power to impose substantive limitations on residential or commercial evictions for nonpayment of rent for tenants financially impacted by COVID-19 through May 31, 2020. G. On March 16, 2020, the Los Angeles County Public Health Officer issued an order countywide that (1) prohibits gatherings where at least 50 or more people are expected to attend, (2) puts limits and regulations on gatherings of 10-49 people, Page 2 of 8 20-1406 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 (3) limits restaurants to drive-through/takeout/delivery only, and (4) closes bars (that don’t serve food), gyms, movie theaters, etc. H. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the California Department of Health, and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health have all issued recommendations including but not limited to strict adherence to social distancing guidelines, canceling or postponing group events, working from home, and other precautions to protect public health and prevent transmission of this communicable virus. Other counties throughout the state have issued essentially “shelter in place” directives. I. On March 19, 2020 the Los Angeles County Public Health Officer issued a second countywide order, the Safer at Home for control of COVID-19 Order, which was further clarified on March 21, 2020. This public health order prohibits all public and private group gatherings and events and requires people to stay in their homes with limited exceptions; and requires closure of all non-essential retail businesses, shopping centers, playgrounds for children, bars, nightclubs, movie theaters and all similar gathering places. The purpose of the order is to further restrict and limit gathering of persons and require closures of non-essential retail businesses in an effort to stem or slow the spread of the virus. J. On March 19, 2020, the Governor of the State of California, also issued Executive Order N-33-20, an Order of the State Public Health Officer ordering all individuals living in California to stay home or at their place of residence except as needed to maintain continuity of operations of outlined federal critical infrastructure sectors. K. As of the date of this ordinance and in order to prevent further exposure, many businesses have imposed work from home policies; meetings, events and social gatherings are being cancelled as people remain at home; customers are not patronizing restaurants and stores or hiring domestic help or travelling. With more businesses moving towards working from home, less of the workforce will be patronizing restaurants, hotels and other retail establishments that employ hourly workers, which is expected to lead to hourly cutbacks and employee terminations. L. As a result of the public health emergency and the precautions recommended by health authorities, many tenants in Hermosa beach have experienced or expect soon to experience sudden and unexpected income loss. M. The Governor of the State of California has stated that individuals exposed to COVID-19 may be temporarily unable to report to work due to illness caused by COVID-19 or quarantines related to COVID-19 and individuals directly affected by COVID-19 may experience potential loss of income, health care and medical coverage, and ability to pay for housing and basic needs, thereby placing increased demands on already strained regional and local health and safety resources, including shelters and food banks. Page 3 of 8 20-1406 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 N. Most, if not all, local schools are closed to prevent further spread of COVID-19. These school closures will cause children to have to remain at home, leading to many parents adjusting their work schedules to take time off work, whether paid or unpaid. Hourly wage earners are unlikely to be paid for time off. The inability to work due to school closures will economically strain those families who cannot afford to take off time from work to stay at home O. The situation is unprecedented and evolving rapidly. Further economic impacts are anticipated, leaving tenants vulnerable to eviction. P. This Ordinance is temporary in nature and only intended to promote stability and fairness within the residential and commercial rental market in the City during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, and to prevent avoidable homelessness thereby serving the public peace, health, safety, and public welfare and to enable tenants in the City whose income and ability to work is affected due to COVID-19 to remain in their homes. Q. In the interest of public health and safety, as affected by the emergency caused by the spread of COVID-19, it is necessary to exercise authority to adopt this ordinance related to the protection of life and property, to ensure renters can remain in their homes and prevent proliferation of homelessness and further spread of COVID-19. Displacement through eviction creates undue hardship for tenants through additional relocation costs, stress and anxiety, and the threat of homelessness due to the lack of alternative housing, and lack of moving services and supplies as stores and businesses close. During the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, affected tenants who have lost income due to impact on the economy or their employment may be at risk of homelessness if they are evicted for non- payment as they will have little or no income and thus be unable to secure other housing if evicted. R. People experiencing homelessness are especially vulnerable to the spread of COVID-19 due to an inability to practice social distancing and a lack of access to health care. The Governor has ordered the State to take extraordinary measures to secure shelter for homeless populations during this emergency to limit exposure to and spreading of COVID-19. Widespread evictions of tenants vulnerable to eviction due to financial hardship occurring due to COVID-19 would exacerbate the challenge of sheltering the homeless during this emergency and increase the risk of spread of COVID-19. S. Promoting stability amongst commercial tenancies is also conducive to public health, allowing businesses to follow the advice and directives of public health officials to close, and allowing employees to avoid public contact, during times of a public health crisis without fear of imminent eviction.

The City desires to prohibit evictions due to non-payment of rent for residential and commercial tenants where the failure to pay rent results from income loss resulting from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). U. This Ordinance is adopted pursuant to the City's police powers and powers afforded to the city in time of national, state, county and local emergency during an unprecedented health pandemic, such powers being afforded by the State Constitution, State law and the Chapter 2.56 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code to protect the peace, health, and safety of the public. The Hermosa Beach City Council finds that this ordinance is necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health, and safety of residents living within the City and finds urgency to approve this ordinance immediately based on the facts described herein and detailed in the staff report. Under Government Code Section 8634, this ordinance is necessary to provide for the protection of health, life and property. SECTION 2.

For purposes of this ordinance, “in writing” includes email communications to a landlord or the landlord’s representative with whom the tenant has previously corresponded by email. Any medical or financial information provided to the landlord shall be held in confidence, and only used for evaluating the tenant’s claim. C. For purposes of this ordinance “financial impacts related to COVID -19” include, but are not limited to, tenant lost household income as a result of any of the following: (1) being sick with COVID-19, or caring for a household or family member who is sick with COVID-19; (2) lay-off, loss of hours, or other income reduction resulting from business closure or other economic or employer impacts of COVID-19; (3) compliance with a recommendation from a government health authority to stay home, self-quarantine, or avoid congregating with others during the state of emergency; (4) extraordinary out-of-pocket medical expenses; or (5) child care needs arising from school closures related to COVID-19. D. This ordinance applies to nonpayment eviction notices and unlawful detainer actions based on such notices, served or filed on or after the date on which a local emergency was proclaimed. Page 5 of 8 20-1406 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 E.

The City Council finds that adoption and implementation of this ordinance is not a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as that term is defined by CEQA guidelines (Guidelines) sections 15061(b)(3), and 15378(b)(5). The effect of the proposed amendment will be to maintain the status quo. No new development will result from the proposed action. No impact to the physical environment will result.

SECTION 8. Urgency Declaration; Effective Date. The City Council finds and declares that the adoption and implementation of this ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation and protection of the public peace, health and safety as detailed above and as the City and public would suffer potentially irreversible displacement of commercial and residential tenants resulting from evictions and foreclosure for failure to pay rent during the COVID-19 crisis. During this local emergency, and in the interest of protecting the public health and preventing transmission of COVID-19, it is essential to avoid unnecessary housing displacement, to protect the City’s affordable housing stock, and to prevent housed individuals from falling into homelessness, especially given state and county directives to stay at home.

Executive Summary: The City recently received notification from the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA), previously known as the Community Development Commission of the County of Los Angeles (LACDC),inviting the City to continue participating in the CDBG Program.The City is required to execute a three-year Cooperation Agreement with the LACDA in order to continue receiving annual CDBG funds. The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)Program is authorized under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974.The primary objective of Title I is to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing,a suitable living environment,and expanding economic opportunities,principally for low-and moderate-income persons.The CDBG program, funded by the U.S.Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD),offers communities opportunities to compete nationally for funds to implement program activities that best meet the needs of their communities,in accordance with the national objectives and requirements of the CDBG program. Approval of the City’s continued participation in the CDBG Program would allow the City to continue receiving annual CDBG funds.Funds have been used to achieve the City’s overall effort to make the City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0238 receiving annual CDBG funds.Funds have been used to achieve the City’s overall effort to make the city more ADA accessible. In addition,in March the City received $37,479 in supplemental funding (CDBG-CV)from the CARES Act to support local and state pandemic response for activities/projects that prepare,prevent and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.The funds have an expiration date of June 30,2021.City staff is preparing a CDBG-CV project proposal which will be presented to the City Council at a future public hearing for consideration. Background: The LACDA administers CDBG funding on behalf of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, which oversees the LACDA, and 47 small participating cities throughout the County. The CDBG Program has three primary objectives: 1.Benefit those with low and moderate income; 2.Aid in preventing neighborhood deterioration; and 3.Meet other urgent community development needs due to natural disasters or other emergencies. The LACDA works closely with diverse communities and elected representatives to assess local needs and identify funding priorities.The LACDA then contracts with local agencies and organizations to provide funding for the needed services. Discussion: The last cooperation agreement was signed approximately six years ago on June 4,2014.The term of the agreement commenced on July 1,2015 with an end date of June 30,2018.After the three-year qualification period ended it was automatically renewed for another 3-year term.The current cooperation agreement expires on June 30,2021 and the LACDA is requesting all participating cities to sign new updated agreements by May 29,2020.To remain eligible,the City is required to adopt a resolution approving the new agreement.The new term will commence July 1,2021 and end on June 30,2024.This new agreement is automatically self-renewing at the end of the initial three-year term unless the City notifies the LACDA in writing that it elects not to participate in a new qualification period. The terms and conditions are set forth in the attached cooperation agreement. The City currently receives an annual allocation of ranging from approximately $60,000 to $70,000 and uses these funds for qualifying capital improvement projects.In order to continue participating in the Los Angeles Urban County CDBG program and remain eligible for CDBG funds,the required Cooperation Agreement must be executed to ensure compliance with requirements set forth by the City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0238 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Staff recommends that the City Council approve continued participation in the CDBG program and authorize the City Manager to execute the required Cooperation Agreement as provided. General Plan Consistency: PLAN Hermosa,the City’s General Plan,was adopted by the City Council in August 2017.This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan.Participation in the proposed cooperation agreement supports several PLAN Hermosa goals and policies that are listed below. Mobility Element Goal 2.A public realm that is safe,comfortable,and convenient for travel via foot,bicycle, public transit,and automobile and creates vibrant,people oriented public spaces that encourage active living. Policy: ·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. Goal 3.Public right-of-ways supporting a multimodal and people-oriented transportation system that provides diversity and flexibility on how users choose to be mobile. Policies: ·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. ·3.2 Complete pedestrian network.Prioritize investment in designated priority sidewalks to ensure a complete network of sidewalks and pedestrian-friendly amenities that enhances pedestrian safety, access opportunities and connectivity to destinations. ·3.10 Require ADA standards.Require that all public right-of-ways be designed per Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)standards by incorporating crosswalks,curb ramps,pedestrian signals, and other components to provide ease of access for disabled persons. Land Use Element Goal 13. Land uses patterns that improve the health of residents. Policies: ·13.5 Improved livability.Encourage the provision of neighborhood and community amenities City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/23/2020Page 3 of 4 powered by Legistar™ Staff Report REPORT 20-0238 ·13.5 Improved livability.Encourage the provision of neighborhood and community amenities and design features,to meet the community desire for a very high quality,amenity-rich,livable community. ·13.6 Connecting health and land use.Seek to incorporate health considerations into land use planning decisions in a manner that improves health and well-being. ·13.7 Collaborative health partnerships.Build and maintain partnerships with the Beach Cities Health District,health care providers,and community-based organizations to evaluate and implement land use projects in a manner that improves community health. In addition,“The Public Safety Element establishes goals,policies,and actions that protect the community from risk associated with hazards and public safety concerns….First,a safe,healthy environment is critical for good quality of life.Second,if we do not adequately prepare for hazards and create a resilient community,natural disasters will have a greater effect on our community, leading to increased injuries and property damage.And none of these are good for our economy. Conversely,creating a resilient town will lead to a more stable and healthier economy as avoidance of hazards will minimize the disruption of local commerce” (PLAN Hermosa page 29). The Infrastructure Element “provides goals,policies,and actions to maintain and improve infrastructure systems.Improving the efficiency and quality of the City’s infrastructure systems makes them more resilient to changing environmental and economic conditions” (PLAN Hermosa page 29). Fiscal Impact: Approving the City’s continued participation in the CDBG Program would allow the City to fund required ADA improvements with CDBG funds that would otherwise have to be allocated from other funding sources. There is no fiscal impact to the City’s General Fund.CDBG funds are restricted funds for approved eligible projects only.

C.CITY directs CONTRACTOR’s attention to Labor Code §§ 1777.5, 1777.6 and 3098 concerning the employment of apprentices by CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor. D.Labor Code § 1777.5 requires CONTRACTOR or subcontractor employing tradesmen in any apprenticeship occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers the apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval. The certificate must also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the performance of the contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases will not be less than one to five except: 65270.00001\32595443.2 CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT Page 3 of 15 i.When employment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the 90 days before the request for certificate, or ii.When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of one to five, or iii.When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis state-wide or locally, or iv.Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman. v.When CONTRACTOR provides evidence that CONTRACTOR employs registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen. vi.CONTRACTOR is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if CONTRACTOR employs registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such contracts and if other contractors on the public works site are making such contributions. vii.CONTRACTOR and any subcontractor must comply with Labor Code §§ 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices. viii.Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex-officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices. ix.The CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor that is determined by the Labor Commissioner to have knowingly violated Section 1777.5 shall forfeit as a civil penalty an amount not exceeding $100 for each full calendar day of noncompliance, or such greater amount as provided by law. E.CONTRACTOR and each subcontractor shall keep an accurate payroll record, showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice, worker, or other employee employed by him or her in connection with the public work.

In the event of noncompliance with the requirements of this section, CONTRACTOR shall have 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of written notice specifying in what respects such CONTRACTOR must comply with this section. Should noncompliance still be evident after such 10-day period, CONTRACTOR shall, as a penalty to CITY, forfeit not more than $100.00 for each calendar day or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. The amount of the forfeiture is to be determined by the Labor Commissioner. A contractor who is found to have violated the provisions of law regarding wages on Public Works with the intent to defraud shall be ineligible to bid on Public Works contracts for a period of one to three years as determined by the Labor Commissioner. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, such penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due. The responsibility for compliance with this section is on CONTRACTOR. The requirement to submit certified payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner under Labor Code section 1771.4 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Section 1771.4. F.Any ineligible contractor or subcontractor pursuant to Labor Code Sections 1777.1 and 1777.7 may not perform work on this Project.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONTRACTOR will indemnify Indemnities against and will hold and save Indemnitees harmless from any and all actions, claims, damages to persons or property, penalties, obligations or liabilities that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm, entity, corporation, political subdivision, or other organization arising out of or in connection with the work, operation, or activities of CONTRACTOR, its agents, employees, subcontractors or invitees provided for herein, whether or not there is concurrent passive negligence on the part of City. In connection therewith: a.CONTRACTOR will defend any action or actions filed in connection with any such claims, damages, penalties, obligations or liabilities and will pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, expert fees and costs incurred in connection therewith. b.CONTRACTOR will promptly pay any judgment rendered against CONTRACTOR or Indemnitees covering such claims, damages, penalties, obligations and liabilities arising out of or in connection with such work, operations or activities of CONTRACTOR hereunder, and CONTRACTOR agrees to save and hold the Indemnitees harmless therefrom. 65270.00001\32595443.2 CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT Page 6 of 15 c.In the event Indemnitees are made a party to any action or proceeding filed or prosecuted against CONTRACTOR for damages or other claims arising out of or in connection with the work, operation or activities hereunder, CONTRACTOR agrees to pay to Indemnitees and any all costs and expenses incurred by Indemnitees in such action or proceeding together with reasonable attorneys' fees. Contractor's obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of City under any provision of this agreement, to the extent required by Civil Code section 2782, Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless City for liability attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where City is shown to have been actively negligent and where City active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City. So much of the money due to CONTRACTOR under and by virtue of the contract as shall be considered necessary by City may be retained by City until disposition has been made of such actions or claims for damages as aforesaid. 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. This indemnity provision shall survive the termination of the Agreement and is in addition to any other rights or remedies which Indemnitees 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 Indemnitees. CONTRACTOR, on behalf of itself and all parties claiming under or through it, hereby waives all rights of subrogation and contribution against the Indemnitees, while acting within the scope of their duties, from all claims, losses and liabilities arising our of or incident to activities or operations performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR regardless of any prior, concurrent, or subsequent passive negligence by the Indemnitees. 11.THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.

If the Parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each Party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each Party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. For purposes of this section, mediation includes any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the Parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation. Any mediation utilized shall conform to the timeframes in this section. Unless otherwise agreed to by CITY and CONTRACTOR in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to this section shall excuse any further obligation under Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced. The mediation shall be held no earlier than the date CONTRACTOR completes the Work or the date that CONTRACTOR last performs Work, whichever is earlier. All unresolved claims shall be considered jointly in a single mediation, unless a new unrelated claim arises after mediation is completed. Procedures After Mediation.
