Original Message
From: F.O. Huebscher [mailto:fred@politicalscientists.com]
Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2003 6:32 AM
Subject: City paid health insurance
I would appreciate if the following letter is placed in the agenda packet for the next
council meeting:
Dear Hermosa Beach City Council,
The time has come for the council to do away with city paid heath, dental and vision
insurance for Councilmembers' spouses and families. As you are all well aware I
oppose city paid health, vision and dental for councilmembers as well. However, there
is a far more compelling
reason for eliminating insurance Councilmembers' spouses and families. Your
continuing to give these benefits to your families and spouses may end up costing the
city hundreds of thousands of dollars because during the next salary negotiations with
our city employees none of whom get free insurance they will say "Why shouldn't we
receive the same free benefits as Councilmembers?" And from a political and PR point
of view, your handing them a great issue. Let's face it is it fair that a secretary, file
clerk or even city management personnel should have to pay for the same insurance
you receive for free? Now that we're facing a $1,000,000+ budget deficit, do the right
thing and eliminate free insurance for councilmembers' spouses and children.
Sincerely,
Fred Huebscher

Honorable Mayor and Members Regular Meeting of
of the Hermosa Beach City Council November 12, 2003
SUBJECT: SOUTH BAY COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS (SBCOG) LETTER COMMENTING ON
SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT EIS/EIR FOR LAX PROPOSED MASTER PLAN
IMPROVEMENTS
Recommendation:
That the City Council approve the attached letter prepared by the South Bay Cities Council of
Governments commenting on the EIS/EIR and authorize the City Manager to sign and forward.
Background:
The South Bay Council of Governments (SBCOG) has prepared a draft letter for use by local
jurisdictions to respond to the Draft EIS/EIR for the Los Angeles Airport Master Plan Improvements.
The proposed project consists of a $9 billion dollar renovation and new improvements designed to
provide, consolidated passenger check -ins at a single location, remote parking and tram connections to
terminals with the intent of preventing terrorism and facilitating airport operations. Each impacted
jurisdiction has received copies of a Supplement to the previously circulated Draft Environmental
Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (EIS/EIR) dated January 2001. The environmental
document is comprised of 8 volumes and approximately 4000 pages of text, graphics, tables and maps.
That EIS/EIR addressed master plan Alternatives A, B and C for improvements to Los Angeles
International Airport plus a "No Action/No Project" Alternative. The new Supplement addresses the
environmental impacts of a fourth "build" alternative, Alternative D. The SBCOG has prepare an
analysis of the EIR/EIS attached for City Council review and a draft letter for use by the City in
preparing comments. (Please see Summary of Plan Alternatives - Attachment No. 1)
On September 20, 2001, the City submitted a letter commenting on the original EIS/EIR addressing
master plan Alternatives A, B and C. The City concurred with the extensive criticisms of the EIS/EIR
set forth in a letter prepared by consultant Barbara Lichman for the South Bay Cities Council of
Governments.
Analysis:
The new Supplement was prepared to describe a new Alternative for the LAX Master Plan and address
the potential environmental impacts of the new alternative. The new Alternative D was developed in
response to public comment on the previous alternatives and the increased security considerations
resulting from the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.
The analysis provide by the SBCOG is that the environmental document is inadequate to understand
the full scope of the impacts to ground access sur rounding the airport, to the adjacent communities and
in the flight path and to enhanced security and safety. There is also a recommendation to cap airport
growth to 78 million annual passengers since without such a cap all of the assumptions and analysis in
the document are considered invalid.
Staff has the following additional comments to incorporate in the draft letter:
1. There is a lack of analysis of traffic impacts on communities south of the airport such as
Hermosa Beach. For example, Sepulveda and Aviation Boulevards are direct links to the
airport. These arterials run through the middle of Hermosa Beach (Sepulveda is named
"Pacific Coast Highway" through Hermosa). It is likely that a substantial amount of airport
traffic from Redondo and Hermosa Beach uses these arterials to get to the airport rather
than diverting to the 405 freeway. There should be some analysis of whether the new
2e
proposed Groundansportation Center (GTC) will increar decrease airport -oriented
traffic on these roads.
2. In addition to the above, Caltrans recently completed a synchronization of traffic signals on
PCH/Sepulveda to facilitate airport -oriented traffic. A more comprehensive approach to the
traffic impacts of Alternative D would be to analyze the effects of this synchronization on
traffic on this arterial further south than the intersections addressed in the Supplement (i.e.
the analysis appears to extend no further south than Rosecrans Avenue).
3. Finally, the descriptions of runway modifications and noise impacts in the EIS/EIR seem to
indicate that there will be no increase in air traffic over the City of Hermosa Beach.
However, we could find no section in the EIS/EIR which specifically addressed this
concern. Therefore, this issue should be addressed in the Response to Comments section of
the Final EIS/EIR. It should be emphasized that the City's support for Alternative D is
predicated on the understanding that this Alternative does not result in such an increase in
air traffic over the City.
After comments, such as those submitted by Hermosa Beach, are received, the FAA and LAWA (Los
Angeles World Airways/City of Los Angeles) will prepare written responses. Then the FAA and
LAWA may either prepare a Final EIS/EIR or conduct additional environmental studies. When the
environmental review process is completed, the Los Angeles City Council and the FAA will decide
which master plan alternative to implement.

ATTACHMENT NO.1
LAX MASTER PLAN IMPROVEMENTS SUMMARY
Alternative A:
Alternative B:
A new runway would be added to the north airfield complex and
two existing runways would be lengthened. This alternative would
fully meet the projected demand for airport services by increasing
passenger capacity from the present 78.7 to approximately 97.9
million annual passengers (MAP) in 2015, and increasing cargo
capacity from 3.1 to 4.17 million annual tons (MAT).
A new runway would be added to the south airfield complex and
two existing runways would be lengthened. The alternative would
also fully meet the projected demand for airport services by
increasing passenger capacity to 97.9 MAP and cargo capacity to
4.17 MAT.
Alternative C: The number of runways would remain at four. One existing
runway would be widened and three runways would be lengthened.
The alternative would not fully meet the projected demand for
passenger capacity, which would be increased to 89.6 MAP, a
shortfall of 8.3 MAP. However, the projected demand for cargo
capacity would be met by an increase to 4.2 MAT.
Alternative D: The new Alternative addressed in the EIS/EIR Supplement is referred to in the
text as "The Enhanced Safety and Security Plan". In this plan, the number of runways would
remain at four and two existing runways would be lengthened and all runways further separated
to improve operational efficiency and safety. The alternative would accommodate approximately
78.9 MAP and 3.1 MAT of cargo, essentially equivalent to the No Action/No Project Alternative
activity level. Alternative D would enhance security by limiting access by private vehicles to the
main airport area. Instead a new Ground Transportation Center (GTC) and an Intermodal
Transportation Center (ITC) would be constructed east of Aviation Boulevard as the primary
access points for all passenger dropoff and pickup and for vehicle parking. Like the other build
alternatives, Alternative D would provide for extensive intersection and other traffic
improvements in the vicinity of the airport.

Subject: Supplement to the Draft EIS/EIR for LAX Proposed Master Plan Improvements
Gentlemen:
By order of the City Council, the City of Hermosa Beach would like to make the following
comments regarding the subject EIS/EIR Supplement.
The City of Hermosa Beach is in agreement with the South Bay Council of Governments
regarding the LAX Master Plan Improvements. As other South Bay cities, we have concerns
about a variety of issues in the environmental document. Our conclusion is that the EIR/EIS is
inadequate to understanding the full scope of impacts to ground access surrounding the airport,
to the adjacent communities to the airport and in the flight path and to demonstrating enhanced
safety and security. Additionally, the City supports a cap on airport growth at 78 million
passengers per year as described in Alternative D in the EIR/EIS.
We believe that the Responses to Comments section of the Final EIS/EIR should address the
above matters and the following specific issues:
1. There is a lack of analysis of traffic impacts on communities south of the airport, such as
Hermosa Beach. For example, Sepulveda and Aviation Boulevards are direct links to the
airport. These arterials run through the middle of Hermosa Beach (Sepulveda is named
"Pacific Coast Highway" through Hermosa). It is likely that a substantial amount of airport
traffic from Redondo and Hermosa Beach uses these arterials to get to the airport rather than
diverting to the 405 freeway. There should be some analysis of whether the new proposed
Ground Transportation Center (GTC) will increase or decrease airport -oriented traffic on
these roads.
2. In addition to the above, Caltrans recently completed a synchronization of traffic signals on
PCH/Sepulveda to facilitate airport -oriented traffic. A more comprehensive approach to the
traffic impacts of Alternative D would be to analyze the effects of this synchronization on
• •
traffic on this arterial further south than the intersections addressed in the Supplement (i.e.
the analysis appears to extend no further south than Rosecrans Avenue).
3. The descriptions of runway modifications and noise impacts in the EIS/EIR seem to indicate
that there will be no increase in air traffic over the City of Hermosa Beach. However, we
could find no section in the EIS/EIR which specifically addressed this concern. Therefore,
this issue should be addressed in the Response to Comments section of the Final EIS/EIR. I
wish to emphasize here that the City's support for Alternative D is predicated on the
understanding that this Alternative does not result in such an increase in air traffic over the
City.
The City of Hermosa Beach thanks Los Angeles World Airports for the opportunity to comment
on the EIS/EIR Supplement.
Sincerely,
Stephen R. Burrell

Comments by South Bay Cities Council of Governments
The comments that follow are divided into two sections. One representing the
EIR/EIS process and the other focusing on the proposed design of the airport
modernization. First however, we address our principal concern which is the size of
the facility.
1. Capping the growth to 78 MAP
The overriding issue for the SBCCOG is capping the growth of LAX at 78 million annual
passengers. If this doesn't happen, then all other assumptions and analysis in the
documents are invalid.
The SBCCOG is very appreciative of Mayor Hahn's desire to cap the growth at the
airport at 78 MAP. Unfortunately, this intention might not survive into the future and
Alternative D alone will not necessarily constrain growth at LAX. Therefore, we support
the efforts of the City of El Segundo and others to develop a binding agreement that
would cap the operations at 78 MAP and we offer our support for actions which will
encourage the development of a truly regional airport system.
Please explain what the safeguards and guarantees are going to he in place to keep
the airport operations no greater than 78 MAP?
2. Supplemental EIR Is Not In Compliance With CEQA
The SBCCOG has concluded that the Alternative D project should have been reviewed
through the preparation of a subsequent EIS/EIR. This would have provided the full
record of information and potential impact since 2001.
The proposed Alternative D is a substantial change to the airport's configuration with a
significant impact on all areas in, at and near the facility. The new central terminal area,
major new facilities near the freeways, new traffic patterns and a new intermodal
transportation center are just some of the changes that will change airport operational
impacts.
Please explain the justification for not preparing a new EIS/EIR document?
3. Baseline Year Not Adequate Or Consistent
The Baseline Year of 1996 is not adequate for a 2003 assessment. In addition, it appears
that there has been an update of the baseline year in those instances where new practices,
ex. the implementation of Stage III noise mitigation measures, have reduced impacts. This
raises the question of not only in,:.onsistent baseline years, but also whether those areas
where the impacts might have gotten worse have been intentionally left out.
Why have different baseline years been used for different factors and what is the
justification for doing that?
4. Assumes All Proposed Projects Will Be Completed
SBCCOG shares the concerns expressed by others that the Supplemental Draft should
acknowledge that some of the planned mitigations may not be feasible. Measures such as
the construction of an off ramp at the 405 Freeway and Lennox Boulevard, improvements
adjacent to the Marina Freeway and numerous local traffic signal coordination and
intersection improvements do not have assured funding. Given the budget situation,
especially at the State level, it is a risky assumption to conclude that funding will remain
available from traditional sources. Available revenue sources should be more clearly
defined and conceptual approval for identified improvements should be obtained by the
appropriate agencies before feasibility can be assured. Finally, the Plan should be
approved with overriding considerations if planned transportation projects do not come to
fruition.
If some of the projects planned and/or proposed dealing with traffic around the airport
are not completed, what are the alternative mitigations measures that would take place?
5. Safety and Security @ The Airport
The main purpose for the changes proposed in Alternative D has been presented as a way
to enhance security at the airport. The SBCCOG is not convinced that the measures
proposed will achieve this goal. SBCCOG shares the concerns expressed in the
independent RAND Corporation study of the security measures proposed in the Plan
which found that the proposed changes would not increase security compared to the
current LAX configuration.
Centralized functions such as passenger check-in could create a single point of possible
disruption that would be more catastrophic than the current configuration. The same
holds true for the proposed People Mover circulation system.
The realignment of the south runway and the new location for the Rental Car facility are
also of concern. While SBCCOG does not have the expertise to comment on their safety,
we remain concerned at the disagreements that have been expressed by those who do have
such knowledge.
Please clarify your assertion that airfield safety is enhanced by moving the runway and
how centralizing passenger serving facilities enhances security.
6. Ground Access To And From The Facilities
Under Alternative D, traffic patterns will change on the freeways and on South Bay
arterial streets. While. the Draft Supplement states that drivers will be inclined to remain
on the freeway for longer periods of time to get to the airport, moving the major vehicle
transportation centers closer to the freeways will serve to add to the congestion on those
freeways. The I-405 and I-105 freeways are already congested during both peak and non-
• •
peak hours and the construction of new freeway to airport interchanges which are •
included as mitigation measures will not address the freeway congestion that exists today
and will only be worse in the future.
Furthermore, because of the freeway congestion, it is erroneous to think that drivers won't
seek relief on arterial streets. Analysis of the changes proposed does not include the
impact of the freeway congestion on the arterials and how the additional traffic coming to
the new passenger processing location will be mitigated. Even the Draft Supplemental
document makes this case under the Noise discussion where it states that arterials will
move more slowly and thus be quieter!
It is not clear that new off ramps and enhanced local traffic signal coordination and
intersection improvements will provide the mitigation required and no other highway
improvements are included. The SBCCOG is concerned that additional mitigation
measures that are fully funded need to be identified to mitigate airport related traffic in the
South Bay.
Please explain what safeguards are being planned and funded to not overload the
arterial streets that could be used as alternate travel routes to the airport instead of the
freeways.
7. Green Line Extensions
The Metro Green Line is an important transportation artery for the South Bay. SBCCOG
would like the airport to ensure that no improvements made under Alternative D preclude any
future extensions to the Green Line going further into the South Bay and to the North.
Additionally, more attention should be given to the final placement of the Green Line as an
airport feeder. The route should be more clearly delineated. Minimally, the costs for the
Green Line routing design and preliminary engineering should be included as part of the
implementation of the Master Plan project.
Please define the routing for the Metro Green Line to more fully serve the airport and
also explain how you will protect the ability of the route as a part of a regional system to
eventually extend both north and south.
8. Noise
The Supplemental Draft indicates that aircraft noise impacts will be significant, affecting
2,250 residents, 780 dwellings, 5 schools, 3 churches, 2 hospitals, and 3 parks.
Additionally, new larger aircraft that the airport is being designed to accommodate will be
louder affecting a wider area. The Automated People Mover (APM) operation will
impose undesirable noise on all 10 existing hotels in the Century Boulevard/98th Street
area.
The SBCCOG is concerned that noise impacts not be shifted from one community to
another. Furthermore, more attention should be given to single event noise. The single
events are very disturbing to the affected areas and mitigation measures should extend to
them. And, areas farther afield from the airport site, such as the Beach cities and Palos
• •
Verdes Peninsula experience noise impacts now. The report does not address impacts to
these communities under the new plan.
Also, the documentation in the report appears to credit road traffic noise reductions that
will come from increased congestion. This is an unacceptable noise mitigation measure.
Please explain how new areas will he safeguarded from experiencing undesirable airport
noise and how areas that currently have the impact will be considered.
9. Cost
The cost of this project is very large for the benefit to the public. It will be extremely
important that funds not run out before all of the mitigations can be put in place.
Please explain how the mitigations will be paid. for. What assurance can be provided
that the airport will fund all of the transportation mitigations and not use regional
transportation funds that are dedicated to other projects? Also, since the plan is to be
funded through airport revenues, what effect will the disruption of construction have on
revenues that the airport generates and therefore, the ability to finance the project?
10. Impacts to Local Communities
As an organization of South Bay city governments, we are extremely concerned about the
impacts to local schools, homes and other institutions. Air quality impacts of increased
congestion and activity in and around the airport are also important. Furthermore, most of
the negative impacts do not significantly affect the greater City of Los Angeles area except
Westchester and Playa Del Rey. Most of the adverse impacts are to the south and east
affecting many of the smaller cities and numerous school districts.
How does this plan minimize the adverse impacts to local communities outside the City of
Los Angeles and what benefits does it hold for them?

6. Items for Commission Consideration
a. Review of 5th Street Survey Results
Mr. Morgan advised that these were the results of the survey done by the 5th Street
Committee. He reported that Staff was attempting to have the bus stop at 5th Street
. relocated and convert that area into a loading/unloading area on PCH for the commercial
traffic in the area. Further, the area would be restricted as a loading zone during peak
traffic hours of 7-9:00 a.m. He stated that MTA has reservations about moving the
current bus stop in either the direction of 4th or 6th Streets due to the preference for stops at
traffic signals. Further, the relocation of the 5th Street bus stop would dictate moving the
bus stop on the west side of PCH as well.
Mr. Morgan advised that his department is proposing the placement of "No Truck Traffic"
signs on 5th Street in an attempt to reduce the number of trucks on the street; this is in
conjunction with a Police Department effort to stop trucks and question their routes.
Staffs recommendation, based on the results of the survey, would be to look into speed
humps. The safety issue of placement of speed humps remains open.
Mr. Morgan stated he is reluctant to pursue placement of a stop sign on 5th Street. He
stated that traffic control measures must meet warrants or they could cause problems.
Commissioner Winnek asked if the MTA might reconsider the request to move the bus
stop, based on a compelling City interest, and other cities' examples of bus stops at other
than signal -controlled intersections. Mr. Morgan responded that he would confer with the
MTA Office of Stops and Zones by looking at records of ridership at that location. If those
reports yield a high volume the MTA would likely oppose the relocation
Mr. Morgan stated that if there was a way to have the 7-11 schedule early morning
deliveries, the delivery vehicles could use the parking lot provided.
Commissioner Cheatham asked if Staff had spoken to the towing company on PCH about
altering their routes. Mr. Morgan stated that Sgt. Thompson is pursuing that issue.
Commissioner Beste asked if Staff had considered allowing parking on both sides of the
street. He felt that would be a great deterrent to traffic, and more effective than speed
humps, although, he questioned the effect it could cause with traffic backing up on PCH.
Mr. Morgan stated that the volume of traffic was over 5,000 vehicles per day, and
parking on both sides would reduce the access to 14 feet, causing initial problems, but with
possibly a positive outcome. He stated that in previous situations where this issue was
addressed, the Fire Department stood firm on fire codes requiring 20 -foot clearance.
Commissioner Lombardo asked if posting a 15 mph speed limit due to the grade was
possible. Mr. Morgan responded that signage does not change behavior in most cases. He
PWC Minutes 2 10/22/03
• •
added that Staff observed the speed at less than 25 mph on 5th Street during two separate
samplings.
Stepping forward to address the commission at this time were:
Mel Leshowitz, 1022 5th Street
Identified himself as a member of the committee who issued the survey to the residents of
. 5th Street. He stated that the speed issue is important, and the Police Department recently
' placed one of their speed indicators on 5th Street. He observed the cars braking reaction
when the driver saw the indicator sign, sensing it was effective. He stated he was open to
a speed limit sign of under 25 mph; they wanted to pursue the speed humps; they were in
favor of pursuing the bus stop being moved; they previously made a recommendation for a
loading/unloading zone to the south of the 7-11, which is a standard curb area. He
requested the Commission pursue that request should the relocation of the bus stop not
be possible. He further submitted an issue that had not yet been addressed by the
Commission - the posting of a sign to limit turns during certain hours onto 5th Street. He
stated he felt that traffic volume was their largest concern, and limiting the volume would be
advantageous. If there were 25% - 33% compliance, it would be significant. He urged the
Commission to pursue that request.
Todd Nuber, 833 5th Street
He reminded the Commission that there had been a proposal of making the street one-way.
He stated that would reduce traffic by almost half. He stated the current speed indicator
was too close to the Stop sign to accurately report speeds on the streets, also of major
concern.
Commissioner Beste asked if Staff had experience with whether speeds typically
decreased if the street was turned into a one-way. Mr. Morgan stated that the volume
would definitely decrease, but the possibility of speeds increasing was realistic. He stated
that one-way had the advantage of increased parking on both sides, however, the petition
had a 7-10 split for and against one-way. He urged the committee to get a majority on that
decision, to present to Council.
Peter Tucker, 235 34th Street
Signage, as on Herondo and Monterey from 7-9:00 a.m. as no right turn permitted can
work. Most of the traffic in the morning is 7-9:00 a.m. He felt that commuters are cutting up
5th Street, and by limiting turns onto 5th during those hours would alleviate traffic. He
further recommended conversation with the owner of the shopping center to widen the
driveway approach from the highway to give the delivery vehicles better access to the
parking lot, as well as to limit the hours of delivery. He further recommended widening the
driveway off of 5th to make it a loading zone, moving it over 5 feet toward the sidewalk
toward the catch basin.
PWC Minutes
3 10/22/03
• •
Commissioner Lombardo asked if the Planning Commission has to limit the hours for
deliveries rather than the Public Works Commission. Mr. Morgan stated that approving a
new development, you can condition it to mitigate impacts, vs. an existing situation, but
we could enforce no parking on 5th Street. He plans to speak to the owner of the 7-11
complex with suggestions and recommendations including changing the driveway, although
it may cause them to lose some parking.
Mehrdad Tootoonchr, business owner
He stated he understood the concern was about the 7-11 and where the bus stop was. He
has 2 businesses on 5th Street, repair shops, one on the corner of 5th and Ardmore and
the other adjacent to it. He commented about the suggestion for a one-way street and
stated that would greatly affect his business. He suggested putting speed humps to require
slowing of traffic, possibly 175 yards apart.
Phyllis Pennings, 625 5th Street
Stated her concerns are about the towing company trucks' traffic and speed on 5th Street.
Mel Leshowitz, 1022 5th Street
He recommended review of recycling the Tight at 5th Street and PCH similar to that at 8th
Street, due to the offset, not allowing cars to simultaneously cross the street, avoiding
confusion of through traffic; perhaps the introduction of turning arrows at the Tight would
help.
Mr. Morgan added that Caltrans is investigating the accident reports and has forwarded the
information to their Maintenance Department for review. He'd requested an update to
present at this evening's meeting but hadn't received one in time. He reiterated that that
option is being pursued.
Commissioner Applebaum asked where the proposed speed humps would be located and
asked for an opinion of its effectiveness. Mr. Morgan responded it must be located at a
location with a slope of 8% or Tess. He added that he plans to visit the location with the
appropriate tools, and added that the 5th Street committee must have a majority of
residents in favor to go forward with the speed hump request.. His perspective is that the
speed humps on 9th Street are successful and encouraged the residents to see them; he
supports that approach.
Commissioner Cheatham stated he supported the speed hump solution and offered that
76% of the survey results favored that approach. He asked if the residents had a petition
for speed humps. He questioned the whether the repaving project was still slated. Mr.
Morgan responded that yes, the repaving was still scheduled, but needed to have it rebid.
Commissioner Winnek stated that the Commission had reviewed the petition. He had a.
concern that only 50% of the residents had responded, and urged greater support prior to
going forward to the City Council. He spoke in favor of signage, but expressed concern
PWC Minutes 4 10/22/03
• •
with restricted turning and its impact on the community. He stated he thought making the
street one-way was possible, and wondered if an experiment could go into effect in the
near future, by painting a stripe and putting temporary barricades in place.
Commissioner Lombardo suggested an experiment with the turn restrictions, as follows:
going north on PCH from 7-9:00 a.m., no turns onto 5th Street, south on Prospect, limit turn
signage. Mr. Morgan advised that that wasn't an option on the survey, and further, that the
diversion of that many cars involves an environmental process; that test cases can cause
large problems. He wants to hear from the residents and understand a majority of their
requests.
Commissioner Cheatham restated that Staff is studying the 5th Street concerns with
Caltrans and suggested Mr. Morgan add the test case scenarios to those discussions. Mr.
Morgan suggested doing the speed survey again and getting more definitive information
regarding direction of traffic during specific hours to report to Caltrans.
Receive and file.
b. Disabled Parking Spaces In the Public Right -of -Way
Mr. Morgan presented the item noting that the City of Hermosa has had an unofficial policy
for the past 20 years of granting requests for disabled parking spaces in the public right-of-
way on an individual basis. During that time, the City has installed less than 20 spaces,
without public outcry.
It has recently become a larger issue with some residents questioning the City's right to
grant these spaces and what conditions must be met; as of now, only the disabled parking
permit is required. He stated that some residents are questioning spaces that go unused.
He felt the situation might have worsened when a second space was added to one street.
He felt the first step was to invite everyone who has a "space" as well as those who have
been communicating their concerns with his office to address the Commission; he
suggested the development of a sub -committee to consider conditions for granting these
spaces and determine how to handle those permits currently outstanding.
Commissioner Applebaum asked what percentage overall the spaces are being used. Mr.
Morgan stated a study would be very difficult. He stated the majority of calls to his office
pertained to the spaces .not being used, along with the lack of available parking for non -
handicapped. Complaints allege there is driveway parking at the disabled person's house;
Mr. Flaherty added that as a result of the initial survey, several disabled spaces were
eliminated immediately, since they were no longer required. He felt the permits are not
reviewed on a regular basis to determine need. He cited a situation where the sign had
been damaged and stolen several times by neighbors in disagreement with the issuance.
He stated the department has received both positive and negative comments about the
spaces, but that it was not the Public Works responsibility to enforce the issuance of the
permits.
PWC Minutes 5 10/22/03
• •
Commissioner Beste suggested that a review process would help and the establishment of
guidelines should be discussed.
Commissioner Winnek stated his commitment toward the disabled. He requested Staff
present the complaints to the Commission for review.
Commissioner Lombardo stated the City of Hermosa was not alone in issuing disabled
permits and cited several cities as examples.
Dick Schoonover, 439 Oceanview Ave.
Speaking on behalf of his wife, Barbara, not in attendance. He spoke in favor of a review
of verifying legitimate need on an annual basis. He urged the Commission not to penalize
the disabled for the benefit of an able bodied person.
Christy Rodenhiser, 7th Street
Spoke in favor of disabled persons, however, stated there was a problem with a neighbor
who has attained a disabled permit and does not appear to be disabled.. She explained this
neighbor is abusing the privilege by parking beyond the boundaries and in essence, takes 2
spaces. She encouraged review of the permits to verify true need.
John Sieckhaus, 625 7th Street
Spoke in favor of disabled spots, and spoke about the abuse of reserved spots on his street
by this same neighbor as mentioned by previous speaker.
Margaret Sam, 1228 6th Street
Ms. Sam noted that she is caring for her mother and has a spot at her address, which has

Carol James, 60 10th Street
Spoke in favor of disabled permits.
Richard Tuey, 626 7th Street
Stated that a disabled parking space suddenly appeared in front of his next-door neighbor's
home. Expressed his concerns about public funds to establish private parking spots for a
neighbor who is not disabled.

Spoke of two spaces on her street, and of her disabilities and support of disabled parking
permits.
Imogene James, 60 10th Street
Spoke of her disabilities, and support of disabled parking spaces.
Chris Wachter, 67 10th Street
Spoke in favor of disabled permits, however, requested criteria be set by the City and
require disabled to use their driveways and garages when possible, and develop standards
to determine why spaces are not being used by the permit holders.
Commissioner Winnek posed a hypothetical question regarding the usability of a driveway
or garage not in compliance with ADA standards: Should the City require the resident to
rebuild the driveway or garage to become compliant?
Mr. Wachter replied that he did not believe that should be required; however, he did believe
the City should be required to determine if that is the case.
Commissioner Applebaum asked if the person applying for the permit has space available,
did he recommend the denial of a permit based on those circumstances?
Mr. Wachter replied yes.
Dan Brannan, 1610 Raymond Ave.
Stated his street has single family houses; suggested that perhaps the City should check
how many cars belong to renters in the City if they are going to check the viability of
granting permits to disabled persons.
Commissioner Winnek spoke of the ease of getting medical reports indicating a person is
disabled; he spoke of the State's requirements for the issuance of disabled placards; he
suggested the City limit itself to the guidelines of the State DMV when issuing disabled
parking spots and recommended the City continue to take cases on a case by case basis
and award a spot accordingly based upon their placards, but also a review period every 1
to 2 years due to varying medical conditions. He spoke against forcing someone to park in
his or her driveway, not on a public street.
Commissioner Cheatham spoke of a procedure from the DMV for registering complaints
against potential fraud regarding permits. He suggested that Staff investigate a referral
process for citizen complaints. He spoke in favor of bringing requests before the
Commission and validating the requirement. He stated Staff was supportive and cited the
handicapped curbs going in around town. Finally, he stated he thought Staff would be able
to formulate a policy and that formation of a sub -committee was not necessary.

Commissioner Applebaum spoke in favor of supporting disabled persons in the community
and was in favor of reviewing need on a case-by-case basis.
Commissioner Beste stated that he didn't agree that only the DMV criteria should be
considered; that because these spaces were in the public right of way, there are other
things the Commission could require. In general, he was in support, with the appropriate
amount of review for approval of permit requests.
MOTION by Commissioner Winnek that the City of Hermosa Beach continue evaluating
approval of providing disabled parking spaces on a case-by-case basis, with an annual or
bi-annual review; the review period to be determined at the time of the initial approval.
Seconded by Commissioner Cheatham.
Commissioner Beste amended the motion to include an annual review.
Commissioner Cheatham asked if the current list of permit holders would be evaluated for
validity. Mr. Morgan replied those currently holding permits had already been identified and
would .be validated immediately. He stated that the DMV placard would be the standard
and it appeared the policy would be purely administrative. He asked for clarification about
where the decision is made: the Public Works Commission? Were the neighbors to receive
notices? He used Loma Drive as an example, where there are only 6 spaces in a block
and if 2 requests for disabled parking were made, did the Commission want to establish
criteria of number of spots available per block, not to exceed 10%?
Commissioner Winnek stated his motion did not involve holding a public hearing; the
decision would rest solely with Staff.
Commissioner Winnek seconded the proposed amendment.

c. Plan Review - Project No. CIP 00-140 11th Place On -Street Parking Improvements
Mr. Morgan introduced Frank Senteno, a new Public Works employee, to the Commission.
He is the Project Manager for this project.
PWC Minutes 8 10/22/03
• •
Mr. Senteno stated that the purpose of the project is to increase public parking around City
Hall, specifically 11th Place and Bard Street. He stated his understanding was that options
previously presented were: a 16 -stall parking lot on 11th Place or 20 -parking stalls in a
different configuration. In addition to the stalls, the project will also include the
reconstruction of Bard St. and 11th Place and under%rounding of facilities on Bard Street.
In order to provide for the 20 parking spaces on 11 Place, they will need to widen 11th
Place along -side Hermosa Storage and build a 6 -foot retaining wall, extending to the City's
property line. The wall height is 6 feet from finished grade of Hermosa Storage. Mr.
Morgan requested the drawing be modified to depict water being pumped out to Valley
Drive.
Referring to the drawing, Mr. Senteno pointed out a wet well that takes on all the drainage
from the entire property including the building and the parking lot. Currently the wet well
discharges onto 11th Place. It is a forced main discharging onto the street, so the line must
be rerouted to discharge onto Valley Drive. There are also overflow drains from Hermosa
Storage dumping onto 11th Place that are manageable, discharging onto the parking lot.
The undergrounding would put all the electrical and telephone lines underground. There
are streetlights, Staff also recommends replacing them with 5 new lights on marble or
concrete standards. He pointed out where they would be placed. He referred to a
proposed 25 -foot steel pole adjacent to a new streetlight, for the Fire Department's traffic
notification system. Currently there is only a flashing orange light with a short arm, hidden
by a tree.
Panels will need to be upgraded and redesigned in order to provide for the undergrounded
utilities. Southern California Edison is in the design process at this time. Critical to the
project will be the phasing of construction. First will be the electrical undergrounding and
then the reconstruction of the streets.
If all work done at one time, would take approximately three months. Unfortunately, access
to these areas is critical so the work will be phased in order to allow access to City Hall, the
antique store and most importantly, the safety departments. Ideally, construction would be
completed before the start of summer. Mr. Senteno noted the possibility of a temporary
driveway to allow police ingress and egress. This will be discussed with the Police
Department.
Commissioner Winnek asked if Staff had considered making Bard a one-way street,
dumping onto Pier Ave. with diagonal parking to provide for more parking, or creating a
staging area for Police or Fire in the event they needed it during festivals or training
exercises.
Mr. Senteno responded that the department is considering several options including
possibly closing Bard St.; making it accessible only to City vehicles during construction.
Mr. Morgan stated he was in support of that option.
Commissioner Cheatham asked if the study included putting a stop sign at Pier and Bard
due to Police and crosswalk usage.
PWC Minutes 9 10/22/03
• •
Mr. Morgan stated they were in favor of a Stop sign at the intersection, although this would
be the third intersection within 100 feet with a 4 -way stop. He also felt there would be
opposition from the public.
Commissioner Cheatham requested explanation of the funding to be used for the project.
Specifically, the Downtown Enhancement Fund and the Parking Fund and how they will be
used.
Mr. Morgan explained the major source of funding is the Downtown Enhancement Fund
and revenues from the parking structure and meters. The benefit to the community is 20
more parking stalls. The City Manager and Finance Director have assigned the funds for
the project in the current budget.
Coming forward to address the Commission were:
Steve Ashla, no address given
Stated he was there on behalf of the current leaseholder at Stars Antiques. He referred to
Staffs drawings and requested more information regarding the blockage of parking caused
by the project.
Mr. Morgan welcomed Mr. Ashla's comments and concerns and offered to meet with him to
discuss the issues further. He stated further, he did not consider the elimination of parking
for a 6 -month period.
Peter Tucker, 235 34th Street
He suggested postponement of the project due to the Planning Commission's project of
new streets and sidewalks and isn't clear how to tie the two projects together to avoid
redundant work. He asked for consideration of the Police and Fire Departments' needs, and
the Civic Center in whole, and to develop a master plan for the project, prior to
underground ing.
Commissioner Applebaum stated he thought the idea was good, however, asked who was
evaluating this and how long would it take before plans come in.
Commissioner Cheatham stated he wasn't clear how a simple street repaving with some
undergrounding was going to impact the Pier Ave. development and enhancement. He
questioned the costs of the undergrounding. He felt the sooner 20 parking spaces could be
added the better. He is also in favor of studying the addition of a stop sign at Pier and Bard.
Mr. Morgan statedhe estimated the costs to be between $75,000 and $100,000, or about a
third of the total cost.
Commissioner Cheatham added that he likes the idea of adding 20 spaces and also likes..
the ides of studying the addition of a Stop sign at Pier and Bard.
PWC Minutes 10 10/22/03
Mr. Morgan noted that he agrees with Commissioner Cheatham and thinks we can do a lot
of site changes. He also noted that this project is part of the approved budget for FY 03-04.
He added that capital improvement projects are approved each year and come from the
Five -Year Capital Improvement Program. The much thought goes into the selection of
each year's project.
d. Tree Committee Report
Chairman Lombardo turned the gavel over to Vice Chairman Beste and joined the
presentation of this item.
Peter Tucker, Jean Lombardo, Michael Flaherty presented the Tree Committee Report.
Mr. Tucker referred to the beginnings of the committee with a report previously prepared by
Chris Howell, a former member of the Public Works Commission. He noted that Mr.
Howell deserves a lot of credit for getting this project underway.
Mr. Tucker made reference to sections of the printed report. He explained how he had done
research comparing others cities' development for tree policies. He explained the report
included four quadrants of the City and recommendations for tree plantings in those areas,
ultimately Staff would make the final decision based on sidewalk width dictating the size of
tree, tree grates, including uniformity throughout the City.
He explained a recommendation included in the report regarding sidewalk repair, where the
resident can utilize City Staff to repair a sidewalk and pay a reduced cost, or pay for the
repairs from an independent source, pointing out they are responsible for the repairs.
He explained a pilot program was planned from Harper to Prospect of 14 trees, perhaps
palms.
Ms. Lombardo explained the subcommittee had presented the report to the Planning
Commission on October 21st. She stated that Mr. Flaherty had evaluated the
recommended plantings after careful analysis of their impact.
Mr. Flaherty stated this was the first time representatives of all three commissions had
joined together to make a proposal. He stated he writes up to 100 letters per year to
property owners in Hermosa to mitigate issues involving their trees, mainly involving
trimming. He stated the proposal includes a sidewalk as well as a tree ordinance. Further,
the letter campaign has been successful to a point. This proposal will address the problems
specifically, where hundreds of trees have been planted in the City right of way, there are
two permits on file. This proposal will give the City a guide as to what type of tree is
acceptable and should help to save $10,000 plus annually for sidewalk repairs, insurance
claims, and people are being injured. The proposal will also coordinate well with the
building department, where new construction occurs, the contractor will be provided with a
list of acceptable trees. The list is a "living document" that can be modified over time.
Once Council approves the ordinance, it leads into the Gateway Project, developed by Mr.
Tucker and Ms. Lombardo, for development by Aviation and Prospect. He is comfortable
due to the involvement of several Commissions.

Mr. Flaherty stated this ordinance would support the fiscal and financial responsibility of a
property owner to maintain their trees, even though they are planted on City property.
Commissioner Lombardo asked for the Commission's approval prior to presenting the
proposal to City Council soon.
Mr. Tucker stated the Planning Commission requires 2 36" box trees. He discovered that
your required tree could be planted in the public right of way. Therefore, it was a needed
• item. The trees were selected for longevity as well.
Coming forth to address the Commission was:
Jeff Ginsberg, 403-417 Hermosa Ave.
He stated that he owns the apartment building, which has broken concrete in front of the
building. For the past year, he has been requesting permits to plant trees in front, and has
not received approval. He requested guidance to gain approval to plant trees.
Mr. Morgan explained that once Council adopts the proposed tree list, it will be available
and Mr. Ginsberg can go forward. The estimated timeframe is two months.
Carla Merriman, Executive Director Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce
Stated that there are several Chamber members, who would, at their own expense, help
defray the costs of a beautification program here. Further, several Chamber members are
members of Mr. Tucker's Gateway beautification program to provide another entry to the
City, palms would echo the palms on Hermosa Avenue and Pier Plaza, also it would be
beneficial to the neighborhoods, making them very supportive.
Commissioner Winnek questioned the approved tree list, once it becomes an ordinance,
calling it a suggested tree list.
Ms. Lombardo stated that because this was public property, the proposal discussed public
plantings, therefore, it wasn't necessary to suggest to the Public Works Department versus
tell them what should be planted. Mr. Flaherty stated that consultation would be required,
for example, with contractors for plantings.
Commissioner Winnek questioned what the punishment would be for the mutilation of said.
trees. He also questioned the assignment of zones in regard to plantings. Ms. Lombardo
explained the necessity of zone creation due to environmental conditions in those zones.
Mr. Flaherty said they were very concerned about the width of the tree and creating
uniformity in planting for both commercial and residential areas.
Commissioner Cheatham clarified that once the ordinance was in place, tree planting could
occur on Hermosa Ave. He also inquired about the replacement of trees in certain areas.
Mr. Flaherty explained there was no plan to replace those trees currently, however the
PWC Minutes 12 10/22/03

sidewalks are being replaced. Mr. Cheatham inquired about the trimming of trees on City
property and Mr. Flaherty explained the current ordinance provides for residential
responsibility for trimming of those trees. He further explained there is no budget for
trimming of residential trees planted on public property, however, will do so on request.
Commissioner Applebaum inquired about safety issues and how trimming affects visibility
of stop signs. Mr. Flaherty stated they immediately trim the bush/tree to expose the stop
sign using minimal labor, following up with a letter to the owner. He stated a high degree of
success with this approach. Routinely, only trees are trimmed where the department has
total responsibility for the tree. Mr. Applebaum clarified that the policy now called for a
ticket to be issued after the letters are written. Mr. Flaherty will readdress the enforcement
issue prior to submitting the proposal for approval. He further stated that the department
has not had enforceable policy in the past and it has inhibited their actions. Ms. Lombardo
cited the benefit of the plan to the department.
Commissioner Beste stated he is in favor of coordinating the type of plantings, and
considering ADA compliance, ensures certain issues are avoided.
MOTION by Commissioner Lombardo to accept the tree report from the committee and
support it going to City Council for approval. Seconded by Commissioner Applebaum.

Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of
the Hermosa Beach City Council November 12, 2003
REPLACEMENT OF CITY HALL HAND RAILINGS
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council to authorize Staff to solicit bids for replacement of all exterior
hand railings at City Hall, Police and Library buildings.
Summary:
At the last Council meeting, Staff was directed to get a cost estimate to replace all exterior hand railings
at City Hall. The City Manager suggested that we consider using the same railings that LA County
Beaches and Harbors uses on their beaches in Redondo Beach and Torrance. This is a round tubular
railing made of bronze anodized aluminum (see attached Assembly Details). This is very handsome
and durable railing that has been in some locations for 20 years and shows no sign of weathering from
the harsh ocean environment. You can see this railing at the Sapphire Street beach restrooms in
Redondo Beach.
Staff contacted CraneVeyor Corporation, the manufacturer of this product, and received a cost estimate
to provide and install the new railing for approximately $25,000. Because CraneVeyor produces this
product on a prefabricated, production basis they are able to provide the product at a very low cost. Staff
estimates the total project cost to be approximately $30,000 including demolition of the existing railing
and other miscellaneous construction costs. Staff had originally received an estimate to replace just the
Library ramp and stair rails for $12,000.
With council approval, staff will expeditiously solicit at least three bids to install the railings manufactured
by CraneVeyor Corporation.
Fiscal Impact:
Staff recommends using the $29,497, which was re -appropriated to the General Fund from the City Hall
Remodel project (CIP 95-622).

C -V PIPE RAIL STANDARDS
C -V Rail pipe and posts are 1 ie' Schedule,40 aluminum pipe alloy
.6063-T6 which is extruded to one-half normal pipe tolerances with a
uniform wall thickness and an exceptional external surface finish.
Sleeves are produced from drawn tube alloy 6063-T832 sized for
optimum fit into the C, V Rail Pipe.
EASY ASSEMBLY
C -V Pipe Rail is assembled in the field from stock parts. End, Inter-
mediate or corner posts are placed as required. Piece marks are not
needed. Tagging and sorting rail sections is eliminated. Pipe rails are
cut to length in the field by the installer. Assembly simply becomes
cutting pipe rails to length as required, attaching rails to posts, align-
ing and grouting (or bolting). Complete installation instructions are
available from CraneVeyor.

The services of a consultant Construction Manager are needed to supplement the construction
management and inspection capacity of the Public Works Department. On October 30, 2003 the City
of Hermosa Beach Public Works Department received eleven statements of qualifications for the
performance of general engineering and construction management services.
Staff selected CBM Consulting, Inc. and negotiated a not -to -exceed fee of $47,174. In addition to
construction management, inspection, and administrative services, CBM will also provide AutoCAD
as-builts at no extra cost. This incidental service has a value of approximately three to five thousand
dollars.
CBM is also the firm that designed this project. This will prove helpful when design questions arise
during construction since the inspector has direct communication with the designer. CBM's
responsibility for design and familiarity with the project will help ensure a successful construction
project.
Background:
Construction for this project is funded by the 301 Capital Improvement Fund in the amount of
$863,100. Sewer work was added in Addendum No. 1 which includes removing one manhole,
installing two new manholes, lining 310 feet of sewer main, and two spot repairs (if necessary).
The Public Works Commission reviewed the plans, specifications, and estimate and received public
comments on this project during the March 19, 2003 meeting. The Commission is in support of the
project and Staff's efforts to ensure that all sewer work and utility upgrades occur prior to street
paving.
For the last eight months, the Gas Company has been upgrading their utilities in the project vicinity.
They are now finishing the trench paving. Staff is working closely with the Gas Company to ensure
their completion of work prior to the start of the City's street improvements project.
Analysis:
Staff has reviewed the low bidder documents and has found them to be in order. Reference calls
have been supportive of the contractor's work habits.
Since contract sewer work was added per Addendum No. 1 in the bid amount of $35,600, the
appropriation of $37,000 from the 160 Sewer Fund is in order.
Fiscal Impact:
The project funding sources are as follows:

Total Costs $ .512,279
The construction contract, construction management PSA, and contingencies amount to $512,279.
Staff estimates soils/concrete testing to cost approximately $5,000 bringing the construction total to
approximately $517,279. Although there are sufficient funds in the 301 Capital Improvement Fund to
accommodate all construction costs, the sewer work added per Addendum No. 1 should be funded by
the 160 Sewer Fund.

Honorable Mayor and Members of
The Hermosa Beach City Council
///
Regular meeting of
November 12, 2003
REQUEST TO ADOPT A RESOULITON TO DOUBLE FINES OF SELECTED MUNICIPAL
CODE SECTIONS ON THE 4TH OF JULY AND NEW YEAR'S EVE HOLIDAY
FOR USE BY THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council:
1. Adopt a resolution to double the fines of specific municipal codes sections utilized by the
Police Department on the 4'h of July and New Year's Eve holidays. Specifically this would
involve only those code violations regarding the possession and consumption of alcohol in
public places and violation of the noise ordinance.
BACKGROUND
The 4th of July Holiday and New Years Eve are very active enforcement periods for the
members of the Police Department. A Targe number of officers are deployed to maintain order
and respond to disturbances on these holidays. In an effort to develop new methods of effective
enforcement, the idea of doubling fines of common violations that occur on these two holidays
has been suggested.
ANALYSIS
Officers issue a large number of citations on the 4th of July and New Years Eve. Alcohol
violations are the most common along the Strand and beach. It is recommended that citations
issued on these two holidays should have the fines doubled from their normal amounts. While a
judge has the discretion to issue the actual fine, a doubling of the fine amount would give a
judge more latitude in determining the fine for the offender. For example, the fine for an open
container on the beach is $100 (plus court mandated penalty assessments, making the overall
amount $320). The judge can issue a fine up to that amount if he/she chooses to do so. If the
fine in doubled to $200, the judge can now issue a fine up to that amount. There are three
common municipal code violations used by officers on these two holidays. It is recommended
that the fines for the following three municipal code sections be doubled.
• Section 12.20.040 — Alcoholic Beverages on the beach or Strand — current fine $100
• Section 9.04.010 — Consumption of alcoholic beverages on public streets, playgrounds and
places open to the public — current fine $100
• Section 8.24.030 — Prohibited Noises- General Standard — current fine $100
While it is not necessary to impose this doubling of fines for a 24 hours period, it is
recommended that on July 4 the doubling of fines occur from 1200 hours (July 4) to 0300 hours
on July 5. On New Years Eve, it is recommended that the fine amounts be doubled from 2000
hours (8:00 PM) on December 31 until 0300 hours on January 1. The City of Newport Beach
doubles their fines on July 4.
2k
FISCAL IMPACT
There may be a slight increase in the amount of revenues received from the courts for the
processing of citations issued during these holiday periods. .

Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular meeting of
The Hermosa Beach City Council November 12, 2003
REQUEST TO AWARD A BID TO PURCHASE PERSONAL PROTECTION
EQUIPMENT TO BRENTON SAFETY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA
FOR USE BY THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council:
1. Award a bid to purchase personal protection equipment to Brenton Safety of Carson,
California in the amount of $15,113.15 (includes tax and shipping).
BACKGROUND
In August of this year, the Office of Homeland Security awarded a grant to the Hermosa
Beach Police and Fire Departments for the purchase of personal protection equipment
for first responders to deal with acts of bio -terrorism or other associated acts of
terrorism. At its regular meeting of September 9, 2003, the City Council appropriated
$20,651.76 to fund this grant. During September and October, the police department
sent out a RFP (request for proposal) to qualified vendors to bid for the protective
equipment authorized by this grant. On October 16, 2003 staff received a total of eight
bids.
ANALYSIS
Staff evaluated the bids submitted. It was determined that many of the bids were not
accurate or complete. The lowest bid submitted by Adamson Industries was rejected
because they did not supply a bid on all of the equipment outlined in the RFP. The bid
submitted by LN Curtis & Sons was rejected because the facemask they offered in their
bid is not suitable for police use. Some of the bids offered equipment that was not
NIOSH approved or their arithmetic was wrong. For example, the bids submitted by
Safeware Inc. and Global Protection did not include tax or shipping which when added
made their bids higher than the adjusted bid of Brenton Safety. Brenton Safety's bid
was adjusted downward because they had added extra pricing on optional equipment.
After making the proper adjustments such as adding in sales tax and shipping, it was
determined that the lowest and most complete bid received offering all of the proper
equipment (NIOSH approved) was submitted by Brenton Safety of Carson, California.

• •
FISCAL IMPACT
The funds to purchase this equipment were appropriated by the City Council on
September 9, 2003. Once the equipment has been purchased, the City will be
reimbursed for these expenditures under the terms of the grant.

Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular meeting of
The Hermosa Beach City Council November 12, 2003
REQUEST TO APPROVE THE RECOMMENDATIONS
BY THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON THE SPENDING OF
LLEBG GRANT FUNDS
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council:
1. Approve the recommendation of the LLEBG advisory committee to spend the grant
funds on cameral surveillance equipment, digital cameras and new generation
ballistic vests.
2. Appropriate $11,450 for the purchase of the recommended equipment and establish
a revenue account for the same amount.
BACKGROUND
The U.S. Department of Justice has tentatively awarded to the City of Hermosa Beach a
Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) in the amount of $11,450. Among the
many requirements of this grant, an advisory committee had to be formed to make
recommendations on the use of this money. At their regular meeting of October 28,
2003, the City Council authorized staff to form an advisory committee in accordance
with the requirements of the LLEBG grant. The advisory committee was to be made up
of a minimum of five members, a member of the police department, local prosecutor's
office, local courts, local schools and a local non-profit organization.
ANALYSIS
On October 29, 2003 the advisory committee met to discuss the possible uses of the
grant money. The committee was comprised of the following individuals:
Captain Tom Eckert of the Police Department
Mr, Ken Meersand, the City Prosecutor for Hermosa Beach
The Honorable Judge Dudley Gray of South Bay Superior Court
Father Gary Klauer of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church and school
Mrs. Jean Lombardo of the Hermosa Beach Women's Club
After discussing different ideas, the consensus of the committee was to purchase
camera surveillance equipment. The Police Department has a machine called a stealth
radar. When the Police Department receives complaints about speeding traffic and
other related traffic issues, the Police Department will deploy the stealth radar to
determine the volume and speed of traffic in the area of concern. This machine
prompted the idea of digital surveillance equipment. This is portable equipment that can
be set up at different locations to record activity. This type of equipment should help the
5a
• •
police department in better identifying and responding to problem areas. (Cost estimate
- $4000)
Additionally, there is a need to purchase digital cameras and portable printers for our
traffic and patrol officers. These cameras could be utilized to photograph crime scenes,
suspects of crimes, traffic accidents and other related needs. Judge Gray felt that the
use of this type of equipment (including the digital surveillance equipment mentioned)
would be very important in the presentation of criminal cases in court and he strongly
urged us to pursue this type of equipment. (Cost estimate - $2000)
If there are funds remaining after these purchases, the balance will be used for the
purchase and testing of new generation ballistic vests for the patrol officers. Currently,
all uniformed personnel are required to wear ballistic vests while on duty. Even though
ballistic vests have come a long way in weight, flexibility and comfort, they are still very
hot especially in the summer time. Staff has learned that the new generation ballistic
vests are much more flexible, cooler and lightweight. Any residue of funds will be
utilized to test and purchase new vests.
FISCAL IMPACT
Upon final approval, the LLEBG grant monies ($11,450) will be funded directly to the
City. Under the terms of this grant, the City is required to provide a matching amount of
$1,272.00. It is proposed that this amount come from the Police Department's adopted
budget.

Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of
the Hermosa Beach City Council November 12, 2003
COMMERCIAL BANNER PROGRAM ON PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this status change eliminating the use of
banner poles on Pacific Coast Highway at 1st Street for fund raising purposes.
Summary:
On October 14, 2003, the City received a notice (copy attached) from Caltrans District 7 Permit
Office requiring removal of the "illegal banner" hung over Pacific Coast Highway at 1st Street.
The City had been utilizing this location and the Aviation Boulevard at Prospect location for its
commercial banner program for approximately five years. This program has raised funds for a
number of community efforts, including funding the restoration of the Vetter Windmill, the
Surfers' Walk of Fame and now primarily, the Education Foundation.
Caltrans' standards very specifically prohibit private advertising (including logos) on banners
within the State Right -of -Way. Caltrans has also informed us that banners with advertising that
are not removed within 30 -days of written notice will be subject to a $10,000 fine plus $100 per
day until removed. Needless to say, Staff removed the existing banner very expeditiously on
October 17, 2003. This banner was relocated to the Aviation Boulevard at Prospect Avenue
location to complete its time commitment. It has subsequently been replaced with a new banner
with a different sponsor for the Education Foundation.
The banner poles on Pacific Coast Highway at 1st Street may continue to be used for
"decorative" banners with no advertising and for Special Event signage, again with no
advertising. Staff recommends continuing the commercial banner program only at the Aviation
and Prospect location.
In addition to the above issue, Staff has implemented a change in the acceptable banner size.
Over the past two years we've had two incidents of banner cables breaking during high winds.
The most recent occurrence happened this past summer at the Pacific Coast Highway and 1st
Street location. High winds whipped the banner back and forth causing cracks in the foundation
and breaking the cables, which then damaged vehicles. The foundations were repaired and the
banner poles returned to use but all banners have been modified with additional slits to allow
wind to pass through and we've eliminated the attachments to the bottom cable. We are using
tethers at the bottom corners in lieu of attaching with a bottom cable. This allows the banner to
rotate and spill the wind load. Staff has discussed the size of the banner with the pole
manufacturers. They have informed us that the present use of a 4 -foot high by 40 -foot wide
banners exceeds the allowable wind loadings for the steel poles in very high wind conditions.
Staff therefore requires that all new banners not exceed 3 -feet high by 30 -feet wide, similar to
restrictions placed on Manhattan Beach's banner program. Existing banners that are 4' by 40'
and are scheduled for re -use will be grandfathered, but will have added slits to reduce wind
loading.

Dear Mayor Michael Keegan and Council Persons,

We the below real property owners and residents of Hermosa Beach are very disturbed by the Caltrans
mandate to no longer permit our Hermosa Beach Education banners across Pacific Coast Highway in
Hermosa Beach, California The above banner program has provided the Hermosa Beach Education
Foundation the privilege of dispersing approximately $80,000 dollars to Hermosa Valley School and
Hermosa View School, to provide very valuable extra education subjects for our children. We are asking
you all to approve an alternative banner site on Aviation Boulevard near Pacific Coast Highway in
Hermosa Beach. Let's keep this program going. Please direct the Public Works and Planning Departments
to study this proposal and bring back their findings to the Hermosa Beach City Council as soon as possible.

PROPOSED TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY AND 16TH STREET
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the request from Shook Development Corporation to
upgrade the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and 16th Street to be fully signalized.
Summary:
Providing traffic signalization at Pacific Coast Highway and 16th Street was first discussed many years
ago as part of the approval of the hotel, the Hampton Inn, on the east side of the street at this location.
At that time, Caltrans was not supportive of adding a signal at this location due to concerns about a
signal causing additional traffic delays on Pacific Coast Highway. When the Planning Commission was
considering the original application for development of the Hermosa Pavilion Project at 1605-1607 Pacific
Coast Highway, it was again discussed. Shook Development was in favor of the new signal but Caltrans
was still not inclined to approve of the signal.
Caltrans is now very supportive of a signal at this location to improve the safety of vehicular turning
movements and pedestrian access. Caltrans is more receptive to this now because of the recent
completion of the traffic signal interconnect project on Pacific Coast Highway, which eliminates the
concern regarding additional traffic delays.
Shook Development submitted a letter dated October 7, 2003 (copy attached) requesting the City's
support for a new traffic signal at this location. With Council's approval, the applicant will prepare plans
for submittal to Caltrans for their review and approval. The applicant has not requested any expenditure
of City funds for this project.
Fiscal Impact: None anticipated.

Dear Mr. Morgan:
I am the owner of the Hermosa Pavilion property located at 1605-1617 Pacific Coast Highway,
Hermosa Beach and am writing to you regarding the addition of a traffic light at the intersection of
Pacific Coast Highway and l eitn Street.
A traffic light at this intersection would be helpful for several reasons. For one, it would enable
the safe and convenient passage of pedestrians who are either going to patronize the amenities
of the Pavilion, the Vons Shopping Center, or downtown Hermosa Beach. Right now, it is
extremely dangerous to cross the street at this location causing pedestrians to either risk their
lives or to Pier
and PCH, an extremely on and t
he location several
vehicular and pedstranacdeis in the past.Eiher way the safety of pedestrians and cyclists
is extremely important to note here.
Two of Hermosa's greatest assets are the Pier and its beautiful beach. One of Hermosa's issues,
like all beach cities, is a shortage of parking. A light at 161t' Street would be more convenient for
residents living east of PCH to walk downtown and would help facilitate walking and biking, which
is more environmentally friendly for the city and would cut down on traffic and parking
requirements.
We are seeking your support to investigate having CalTrans install a traffic light because we
believe it would be safer, more convenient and environmentally friendly, conducive to supporting
local businesses and of no cost to homeowners.
As you are probably aware, initial demolition of the property has ended, construction permits are
imminent and we are working toward an aggressive grand opening date.of June 2004. It is our
goal and we hope that you will agree, that the new Pavilion, which will include office, retail,
restaurants, and 24 Hour Fitness as the anchor tenant, will be an asset to the community. We
want to make access to its amenities as safe and convenient as possible for residents and
visitors.
Again, we would appreciate your attention to this matter at your earliest convenience. Please let
me know if there is any way that Shook Development Corp.can help facilitate the decision-making
process. Thank you in advance.

Hermosa Beach City Council
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION OF BOARD OF APPEALS
Recommendation:
That the City Council receive and file this report.
November 6, 2.003 ///by'
Regular Meeting of
November, 12, 2003
Background:
On October 14, 2003, the City Council considered background information on the role of the City's
Board of Appeals generally and specifically in connection with a property wall dispute between 627
and 633 2" Street. Following the discussion of the property line wall dispute, the City Council
requested additional information on the operations of the Board of Appeals. The following provides
an overview of the Board's operations.
Analysis:
The Board of Appeals is empowered to hear matters within their jurisdiction (matters regulated by
the Building Code and not subject to the administrative provisions of the Code).' The Board is
composed of persons with expertise in construction; it meets periodically in response to requests to
consider an appeal.2 Appeals are generally taken to the Board during plan check or during the
course of construction by an architect or builder experiencing difficulties complying with the
building official's interpretation of the code in the design or construction of a structure.3
At its October 14, 2003 meeting, the City Council discussed the procedure that should be employed
in the event that an appeal is filed that the Director believes is not within the jurisdiction of the
Board. The Council directed that the Director will continue to make initial determinations on
whether a matter is appealable to the Board (i.e. regulated by the Building Code and not subject to
the administrative provisions of the Code). In the event of an adverse determination, an owner or
builder may elect to appeal the matter to the City Council. The Council may affirm or reverse the
Director's determination. If the Council determines that the appeal is within the Board's
jurisdiction, the appeal will be processed.
At present, the appeal is processed in a manner similar to appeals to the Planning Commission and
the City Council. The City charges an appeal filing fee of $191. The current fee is well below the
filing fee in other jurisdictions.4
The appellant provides the appeal in writing and may include plans or other relevant material for the
Board's consideration. The Board generally meets on the second Monday of each month or at
alternative meeting date acceptable to the Board, provided an application is on file in the
Community Development Department at least seven (7) working days prior to the meeting. There
are five Board members and three are required for a quorum.
The Board agenda is posted at the meeting location 72 hours prior to the hearing. The Community
Development Department prepares a staff report and provides any other relevant documentation for
the hearing. A minimum of 72 hours prior to the hearing, the staff report is distributed by hand to
the board members which includes any correspondence by the appellant. A hearing is conducted in
the City Council chambers and the Board makes a determination on the matter. At the Board's
discretion, it may employ at City cost, architects, competent builders, attorneys and structural
6c
engineers which in its discretion it deems reasonable and necessary to assist in its investigation and
in making its findings and decisions. A copy of the Board's determination is provided to the
applicant in writing.
Conclusion:
The City's Board of Appeals functions pursuant to its authority under the Building Code and has
operated no differently than Boards in other cities. All appeals must pertain to activities which are
regulated by the Building Code and fall within the Board's authority. Since fees have not been
updated in many years, staff recommends that Council consider increasing the application fee
consistent with other South Bay cities to cover associated costs.
