City of Hermosa Beach, Civic Center, 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254-3885 • • MINUTES OF THE ADJOURNED REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, held on Monday, March 26, 2001, at the hour of 7:18 P.M. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE - Pete Tucker ROLL CALL: Present: Dunbabin, Edgerton, Oakes, Reviczky, Mayor Bowler Absent: None Also present were: Steve Burrell, City Manager Mary Rooney, Community Resources Director Harold Williams, Public Works Director/City Engineer Mike Flaherty, Public Works Superintendent Tristan Malabanan, Assistant Engineer Bob Moore, Lifeguard Section Chief Elaine Doerfling, City Clerk PIER RENOVATION - PHASE III WORKSHOP Public Works Director Williams said this workshop was a follow-up to the January 30 meeting and that Purkiss Rose -RSI consultant Jim Pickel and building architect Ron Yeo would make the presentation. Mr. Pickel noted the tower mock-ups had been installed. He also suggested changing the order of some of the agenda items. 1. REPORT ON SQUARE FOOTAGE COST FOR THE BLACK TERRAZZO PAVING FOR THE PROPOSED WALK ZONE BETWEEN 10TH AND 14TH STREETS, OR 11TH AND 13TH STREETS. Mr. Pickel said he was quoted a price of $13 per square foot to repave a Strand walk zone with the same colored concrete used for the Pier Plaza and, based on that figure, the paving costs would be: $107,250 for the area from 11th Street to 13th Street; $214,500 for the area from 10th Street to 14th Street; and $30,000 for the frontage area only. Noting that the price was based on the 8 -inch profile and epoxy -coated steel used in the Plaza area, he said perhaps a 6 -inch slab with steel would suffice the vehicle load on the Strand, and requested for review purposes a copy of the geotechnical work done by the City that set the standard at 8 inches. It was the Council consensus to match what is used on the Strand, at least at the base of the Plaza, to the black concrete that exists on the Plaza. Further Council discussion ensued, and suggestions included getting quotes for the black concrete from other sources or using a 4 -inch standard base with four inches of colored concrete on top to reduce the cost. City Council Minutes 03-26-01 Page 10481 It was the consensus of the Council to have the consultant return with information on costs and alternatives regarding materials and locations, including the possibility of using black colored concrete in the area between the restroom and the end of the Pier remodel and standard gray concrete from the edge of the restroom to 10th Street and from the edge of the construction area to 15th Street. 2. COSTS FOR A SIMPLE MODEL AND A COMPLETE MODEL. Mr. Pickel presented the costs quoted for the models, citing a cost of $12,020 for a study model and $17,100 for a presentation model. It was the consensus of the Council to not pursue either model due to their high cost, and to put the money instead toward construction costs. Mr. Pickel and Mr. Yeo responded to Council questions concerning the proposed towers, noting an outside measurement at the base of each tower at 11.5 by 11.5 feet. In response to concerns about sand blowing onto the Strand, Mr. Pickel said they would add a sand wall along the western edge of the parking pad, but suggested locating the wall in the sand, off -set from the edge of the paving, in the. area where it would meet other design elements. 3. REVIEW OPTIONS FOR STAIRS INSTEAD OF THE OPTIONAL HANDICAP RAMP AND ALSO REPORT ON COST. Mr. Pickel reviewed the proposal to extend the lifeguard building 4.5 feet south to accommodate a stairway, noting an additional construction cost of $17,000 to do so. It was the consensus of the Council to approve the construction of a staircase at $17,000 instead of the optional handicap ramp. The meeting recessed at 8:55 P.M. The meeting reconvened at 9:15 P.M. 4. PREPARE DRAWINGS SHOWING DESIGN FEATURES WITH PROPOSED MATERIALS - MATERIAL SAMPLES. Supplemental letter from Ron Pizer received March 26, 2001, concerning the two pier entrance towers: Mr. Yeo presented the recommended materials for the proposed towers, which would house communications and electrical equipment. Discussion about the towers and their size ensued, and it was suggested that the tower mock-ups be kept in place for a week to allow adequate time for viewing and for public input. City Council Minutes 03-26-01 Page 10482 It was the consensus of the Council to postpone a decision on the proposed towers. Mr. Yeo reviewed the restroom proposal and discussed the various materials proposed, noting that wooden doors cost more but metal doors rust out in four years and require replacement. He said the louvers in the doors would provide needed cross ventilation. There was a general Council consensus (Dunbabin dissenting) to use the proposed wood doors for the restroom and stay with the color and material palate proposed. The meeting recessed at 10:30 P.M. to allow a review of the materials on display. The meeting reconvened at 10:40 P.M. Mr. Pickel presented the proposed non -slip porcelain tiles and interlocking pavers in various colors. Action: To direct staff to schedule a Council workshop to discuss the entire design concept. Motion Mayor Bowler, second Oakes. The motion carried by a unanimous vote. 5.

She requested adding to tonight's agenda the scheduling of an advertised, staff -conducted, budget information meeting to take place prior to the scheduled May 24 City Council budget workshop. City Manager Burrell said the budget would be finished on May 15, and the meeting could take place May 17, 2001. Action: To agendize for consideration later this evening an item concerning the scheduling of a budget information meeting to be conducted by staff on May 17 for people interested in the budget and the budget process, based on the finding that the item arose after the posting of the agenda and required immediate action. Motion Dunbabin, second Oakes. The motion carried by a unanimous vote. PIER RENOVATION - PHASE III - WORKSHOP REVIEW OF OVERALL DESIGN OF THE PIERHEAD. All design boards produced by the architect were set up by staff for display at the meeting. 1. TOWERS DISCUSSION OF PUBLIC INPUT REGARDING TOWER PROPOSAL Action: To remove the Pier towers, as shown in the demonstration project (mock-ups), from conceptual consideration at this time. Motion Mayor Bowler, second Dunbabin. The motion carried by a unanimous vote. Coming forward to address the Council on this item were: John Hales - Hermosa Beach, said cylindrical shaped towers would be wide enough at the bottom to house the equipment but graceful because they would get narrower as they go up; said cylindrical towers would also be consistent with the plan; City Council Minutes 04-30-01 Page 10520 • Bob Moore - County Lifeguard Section Chief, said the towers had been designed to store the communications and electrical equipment above ground to avoid flooding; said accommodations must be considered for that equipment; Robert Bell - Hermosa Beach, spoke in support of the proposed archway; Scott Alden - Hermosa Beach, said the Pier area should not be made to look like a carnival said it was nice to be able to walk to the end of the Pier now, and thought it all should be kept simple; Shirley Cassell - Hermosa Beach, said the banner and towers were not needed; suggested that nothing be built there; Rick Koenig - Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce, asked for a review of the plans and an explanation of the proposal. Councilmember Oakes reviewed the plans on display and explained the proposal, noting the needed improvements to the beach restrooms and the lifeguard facility, including the addition of a women's locker room. Continuing to come forward to address the Council at this time were: Robert Bell - requested consideration of a small building in the Pier area for use by the Historical Society, noting they could rotate historical items there for public viewing; John Hales - requested a small, enclosed, vertical display panel, with perhaps a couple shelves, where the Historical Society could display items showing the history of the city; Jill Morales - Hermosa Beach, liked the idea of the archway, but thought it should be more ornate; showed a sample of a sea -life silhouette and submitted fliers from the artist; Pete Tucker - Hermosa Beach, said the truck pad proposed to be in front of the Mermaid Restaurant did not have to be so large and could be used for bicycle racks; suggested that trucks park in the parking structure or in, Lot B; Theresa Alden - Hermosa Beach, liked the idea of a graceful arch; said Hermosa has a great beach and that asset should be preserved; suggested something unobtrusive and graceful, with a more natural look, using natural materials and plants; Michael Keegan - Hermosa Beach, said a pressure washing system was needed in the bathroom and perhaps could be extended to the Plaza to keep the whole area clean; Gary Zimmerman - Hermosa Beach, said the low lights along the Pier were much better than overhead lights but still created a light - glare problem; said the lights had a little ring around them to prevent glare when looking down at them, but caused a glare for anyone looking out at the Pier, suggested angling them to eliminate the glare; City Council Minutes 04-30-01 Page 10521 • • No name given - said the metal restroom doors in Venice were all broken and required high maintenances Rick Koenig - said he liked the design; suggested a mission style roof for the lifeguard building; thought the tile design on the pierhead was too busy and that he would prefer more muted colors; said the lighting should be more "beach town" and less "space age"; John Hales - requested a small meeting area in the Plaza, a small alcove to gather people for presenting awards after the Sand and Strand races and other activities. 2.
