Mayor for a term ending Tuesday, January 25, 2005. 2. Mayor Pro Tempore for a term ending Tuesday, January 25, 2005. Recommendations after the appointments of Mayor and Mayor Pro Tempore, consistent with the policy of maintaining permanent representatives whenever possible, are: 1. To appoint the Mayor to the Los Angeles County - City Selection Committee. (Authority in Govemment Code Section 50270. The committee shall consist of the mayor of each city within the county. Other councilmembers may be designated delegates for meetings the mayor is unable to attend, but that requires Council action for each meeting that a delegate other than the mayor is designated.) 2. To appoint the Mayor to the South Bay Cities Sanitation District Board of Directors, and the Mayor Pro Tempore as alternate director. (Authority in Health and Safety Code Section 4730. The presiding officer of the governing body is automatically on the Board of Directors, and an altemate director is appointed to act as a member of the district board in place of the presiding officer ... during such person's absence, inability, or refusal to act. Therefore, the altemate may attend meetings in the Mayor's place without requiring Council action each time.) The remainder of the assignments may be handled either this evening or at the April 27 meeting. Attached is the list of current committee assignments as of January 27, 2004. Please note that the appointed delegate and alternate should be the same for both the South Bay Cities Council of Governments and the LAX Committee, since their meetings occur back-to-back on the same day and at the same location. Also, two of the committees require resolutions for the appointments of delegates and alternates. Councilmember Tucker is the current delegate and Finance Director Viki Copeland the current alternate for the Independent Cities Lease Finance Authority. Councilmember Edgerton is the 1 • • current delegate for the Independent Cities Risk Management Association, with Personnel Director/Risk Manager Michael Earl as the designated alternate, and Finance Director Viki Copeland as the substitute alternate representative to serve in the absence of the delegate and alternate. If assignment changes are made with regard to either of those committees, an appropriate resolution will be placed on the consent calendar of the subsequent meeting agenda for Council adoption. Following the assignments of delegates and alternates, letters will be sent to the appropriate boards and committees, and the list of newly appointed delegates and alternates will be forwarded to Council.

It appears that some people have gotten four friends together and donated $1,000.00 for "cheap insurance". The states electorate voted to allow labor unions, associations, and other worker organizations to exceed the cities $249.00 limit. Is it correct that a county committee is not controlled by the cities ordinance 2.08.020? If labor unions like mine the I.U.O.E, or four people giving a $1,000.00, or county committees are not held to a $249.00 limit, why limit the voters of Hermosa Beach to such controls when you cannot control people outside the City of Hermosa Beach?

Can you confim the date of the city council meeting that this letter is in? Can you inform me if it is possible to get any of the Hermosa Beach crime information I am requesting before the Hermosa Beach City Council meeting on April 13, 2004? Thanks, Alan Benson To: Steve Burrell City Manager Hermosa Beach From: Alan Benson 1924 Monterey Blvd. Hermsoa Beach CC: Hermosa Beach Police Chief Michael Lavin Hi Steve, March 31, 2004 In this e-mail I have included a report to the Hermosa Beach City Council from HBPD Chief Lavin, dated April 16, 2002 and titled: Statistical Report of Crimes and Police Activity for 2001 I received this written report from HBPD Chief Lavin and typed it into this e-mail. I would like to get the same Hermosa Beach crime statistics that are in the Statistical Report of Crimes and Police Activity for 2001 updated for the years 2002 and 2003. In addition, I would like to have the following Hermosa Beach crime information: 1. How many of the adults arrested in Hermosa Beach in years 2001, 2002 and 2003 had a felony arrest 4/8/2004 lb record history? 2. How many adults arrested in Hermosa Beach for years 2001, 2002 and 2003 used deadly weapons or were found to be in possession of deadly weapons, such as guns, knives or clubs? 3. What are the total numbers of each of these deadly weapons; guns, knives or clubs; that was confiscated by the Hermosa Beach Police Department for years 2001, 2002 and 2003? • Page 2 of 5 Regards, Alan Benson Hermosa Beach Police Department Office of the Chief of Police Tuesday, April 16, 2002 To: The Honorable Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council For: The April 23, 2002 Regular meeting of The Hermosa Beach City Council Statistical Report of Crimes and Police Activity for 2001 Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Receive and file the following report. Background and Analysis: With an increase in the number of reported assaults for the calendar year of 2001, an analysis has 4/8/2004 • • Page 3 of 5 been done in regards to the types of assaults that occurred. During 2001, the police department reported 141 assaults on its year end statistical report. However, after extracting the individual reports from the computer system, there were only 132 assaults that could be accounted for, during 2001. During the course of the year, reports are sometimes modified or reclassified for a variety of reasons that would have reduced this number. It should also be noted that assaults are classified into two major categories, aggravated and simple. Aggravated assaults simply put, describe assaults where a deadly weapons was used, (gun, knife, bat, etc.), or where hands, fists, or feet are used resulting in an aggravated injury. Simple assaults are classified as a battery that has taken place yet there are not significant injuries or no injuries have occurred. It has been the policy of the Hermosa Beach Police Department to report all assaults. We have learned that it is the policy of some surrounding police agencies to only report aggravated assaults. Domestic violence assaults are also classified within these numbers along with assaults on police officers and these categories are broken apart from regular assaults. The breakdown of assaults is as follows: 42 - Domestic Violence assaults 17 - Aggravated assaults 25 - Simple assaults 37 - Simple assaults (no injury to minor injury) 48 - Aggravated assaults 4 - Aggravated assaults on Police Officers 1 - Simple assault on a Police Officer 132 - Total Assaults Domestic Violence accounts for 32% of all of the assaults for 2001. A total of 53 assaults (40% of the total) were reported in the downtown area. Of these 53 assaults, 4 were domestic violence assaults and 4 were assaults on our police officers. There were 17 simple assaults and 28 aggravated assaults. Calls for service for the downtown area were also examined. In the computer, the downtown area is between 10th Street to 16th Street and from The Strand to Palm Dr. including a small section of Manhattan Avenue from Pier Avenue to 14th Street. Calls for service includes those called in by citizens as well as self -initiated by police officers. These totals do not reflect all activity in the downtown area. For example, these numbers do not reflect burglary reports, traffic accidents, etc. , which occurred in the downtown area. The categories listed are the types of call that were searched. 4/8/2004 • • Calls for Service categories Downtown Citywide Total Calls regarding fighting and assaults 65 159 Calls regarding a reported rape 5 19 Disturbance calls 998 3074 Family disturbance calls 12 154 Disturbance calls regarding loud parties 26 633 Drunk and disorderly calls 60 196 Totals - Calls for Service categories 1166 4235 Page 4 of 5 • In the first two categories, a call regarding a fight or a rape did not necessarily mean that an assault or rape took place, or that a report was even taken. Some of these calls were probably officer initiated for example when officer come upon a fight in progress. Disturbance calls are not only a result of calling in but also include self -initiated calls by officers. With the numbers of officers assigned to the downtown foot patrol beats with the mission of being proactive, it should be understandable that a number of calls would be self -initiated by them. As a point of reference, there were a total of 32,322 calls for service citywide during the year 2001. The 1166 calls illustrated above represents only 3.6% of this call volume. Foot patrols in the downtown area will continue not only on the weekend nights but will now be expanded to Thursday and Sunday evenings as well. Staff feels that the presence of foot patrols over the past few years has in fact reduced the number of assaults and other related crimes in the downtown area that would have occurred if the patrols had not been deployed. The police department will also continue to organize special details to focus enforcement efforts on crime problems citywide.

Can you put this letter in the next meeting of the Hermosa Beach City Council agenda under written communications? Can it be placed in the March 23, 2004 meeting agenda? Best regards, Alan Benson To: Michael Lavin Chief of Police Hermosa Beach, CA From: Alan Benson 1924 Monterey Hermosa Beach, CA Re: Hermosa Beach Crime Statistics CC: Steve Burrell Hermosa Beach City Manager March 10, 2004 Greetings Chief Lavin, Many thanks for sending out the information packet I requested regarding the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission's review of the Aloha Sharkeez and Sangria CUP's at the upcoming meeting on March 16, 2004. I plan on speaking at the public hearing along with other Hermosa Beach residents at the March 16 meeting. I have talked with a number of Hermosa Beach residents about the CUP review for Aloha Sharkeez and Sangria concerning the disturbance calls on Pier Plaza. One of the problems I have in talking about the "disturbance calls" with some Hermosa residents is that they are not aware of the potential danger that our HBPD officers face when they respond to such a call. 4/6/2004 • • Page 2 of 4 Another problem is trying to get across the number of times that these "disturbance calls" lead to dangerous physical confrontations that involve intoxicated bar patrons and HBPD officers on Pier Plaza. I am aware and I sure you know that a large percentage of shootings of police officers involve the attackers taking and using the police officer's own weapon. And I am not suggesting that our HBPD officers are not properly trained in the use of their weapons. I am very concemed about the number of occasions I have read about where our HBPD officers are assaulted by attackers using thrown tables, automobiles and of course hand to hand combat in the downtown area of Hermosa Beach. I can only imagine the number and variety of weapons that the HBPD has taken from persons arrested in the downtown area. In my discussions with Hermosa residents about these problems, some of the responses I have gotten are: "Are these disturbance calls really that bad? And, "Do you really think anything is going to change?" Another is, "it has always been like this in Hermosa, get used to it..." and "this not a big problem, tell the whiner's to move." And, "It's Sharkeez and Sangria, huh...so these are, the only places, where people get drunk downtown?" I understand where these points of views come from. Most Hermosa residents are not aware of, and do not have to deal with the problems and concerns that you have in leading the HBPD. Unless there is convincing evidence to the contrary, most people feel that things are going just fine as is, and they are not aware of any compelling reason to change. think it would helpful for me and other Hermosa Beach residents to look at the overall crime statistics in Hermosa Beach compared to the crime statistics that take place the downtown area of Hermosa Beach, not just the Pier Plaza. I am interested in getting the up to date crime statistics for Hermosa Beach. On March 19, 2002 you faxed me two spreadsheets of the crime totals for Hermosa Beach. One of the spreadsheets was titled: Hermosa Beach Police Department Activity Report for 1995 - 2001 The sub -categories in the spreadsheet were: Offenses Reported - Murder, Rape, Robbery, Assault, Burglary, Larceny, Motor Vehicle Theft, DUI, All Other Offenses and Disturbance Calls. Persons Arrested -Adults, Juveniles, And Criminal Citations. Traffic Report -Accidents - Fatal, Injury, Property Damage Only, Citations, Traffic Police Calls for Service - Total Calls 1. Could I have this spreadsheet e-mailed or faxed to me, with the same crime statistics for all of 4/6/2004 • • Page 3 of 4 Hermosa Beach, updated for the years 1995 to 2003? If it is a problem to put all these years together, 1995 to 2003, then above crime statistic totals for only years 2002 and 2003 will work. 2. Similar to the above request, I want the same Hermosa Beach crime statistic totals for the downtown area only, for the same years 1995 to 2003. Offenses Reported - Murder, Rape, Robbery, Assault, Burglary, Larceny, Motor Vehicle Theft, DUI, All Other Offenses and Disturbance Calls. Persons Arrested - Adults, Juveniles, And Criminal Citations. Traffic Report - Accidents - Fatal, Injury, Property Damage Only, Citations, Traffic Police Calls for Service - Total Calls I understand that the Hermosa Beach downtown area that you use is between 10th and 16th Streets and from The Strand to Palm Dr. and a small section of Manhattan Ave. from Pier Ave. to 14th Street. I am assuming that calling up these crime statistics will be a basic computer search that asks for these crime statistics for the downtown area only as part of the search. And I also assume that this will not be very time consuming to create such a report. If the downtown area only, statistics is a problem to produce, then reduce the years to include 1999 to 2003, for the downtown area for these crime statistics: Offenses Reported - Rape, Robbery, Assault, Burglary, Larceny, Motor Vehicle Theft, DUI, All Other Offenses, Disturbance Calls and the Total Calls for Service. In your February 17, 2004 letter to Sol Blumenfeld that you sent to me. The subject of the letter was: Request CUP Review by the Planning Commission of Aloha Sharkeez and Sangria. In that letter you have the following statement: The police department has had to Increase the amount of enforcement activity on the Hermosa Plaza to keep a lid on the crowds and the associated public disturbances, assaults and public intoxication that have become very common place each evening between the hours of 10:00 PM and 2:30 AM. The police department is staffing nightly foot patrols on the plaza each evening with the exception on Monday nights. There are additional foot patrols on the weekend nights. There are additional foot patrols on the weekend nights. All of this activity is paid through overtime and is costing the City several hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. This activity on the Plaza has also been a source of numerous personnel complaints against officers, claims against the City, lawsuits and injuries to officers. All of these activities have associated costs as well. In presenting the case before the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission, it will be very helpful for me and other Hermosa Beach residents to have the following statistics that relate to your comments from the previous paragraph: A. What are the approximate yearly costs of the nightly HBPD patrols of Pier Plaza? Is it possible to have these costs going back for the past 5 years? 4/6/2004 • • Page 4 of 4 , B. How many total complaints or legal claims have been filed against the City of Hermosa Beach regarding the Pier Plaza area for the past 5 years? Including all types of claims and the approximate costs involved with addressing the claims. C. How many HBPD officers have been assaulted, injured or have been put on disability because of actions the HBPD officers have involved in on Pier Plaza, in the past 5 years. How many convicted felons have been arrested on Pier Plaza, in the past 5 years? D. How many weapons and what type of weapons are confiscated from people arrested on Pier Plaza in the past 5 years? How many arrests for illegal drugs and what types of drugs are confiscated from people arrested on Pier Plaza in the past 5 years? Are these problems staying about the same or getting worse? E. How big of a factor does the over -consumption of alcohol play in causing these "disturbance calls"? Is there a certain profile or type of person that causes the most problems for the HBPD regarding these "disturbance calls"? I think it is also important to assess the future risk of serious injuries, permanent disabilities and the real possibility of fatalities to HBPD officers as a result of these alcohol related "disturbance calls" in the Hermosa Beath downtown area and Pier Plaza. Can the overall number of these "disturbance calls" be greatly reduced In order to make Hermosa Beach safer and to significantly reduce the number of times that HBPD officers have to put their lives at risk. This is the rhetorical question that I want to put before the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission and City Council. But first we have to present the facts for why things need to change. Currently, the residents of Hermosa Beach are largely not aware that these problems need attention. I realize that my request for these crime statistics may not be able to be produced before the planning commission meeting on March 16, 2004. I do think that this information is important for this debate and it is very likely that the debate will go well beyond the March 16 meeting. All of these statistics that I am asking for will help me and other residents to present an effective case before the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission and if needed the Hermosa Beach City Council.

All of these activities have associated costs as well. In reviewing the call logs of various downtown businesses, it is obvious that Aloha Sharkeez and Sangria create a lot of business for the police department. Attached to this memorandum is a report dated November 5, 2002 addressed to the City Manager Stephen Burrell. In that report, staff tabulated the number of calls associated with each of the listed businesses that specifically dealt with disturbances, assaults and public intoxication. You will note that the two leaders at the time were Aloha Sharkeez and Sangria. We have complied additional data regarding the downtown establishments to provide an update of recent activity levels. However, I have combined all three categories of calls relating to assaults and public intoxication with all disturbances. In essence, all these categories of all calls are in reality disturbances. The call history period is from December 1, 2002 until approximately January 10, 2004.

Hermosa Beach Police Department Office of the Chief of Police Tuesday, April 16, 2002 To: The Honorable Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council For: The April 23, 2002 Regular meeting of The Hermosa Beach City Council Statistical Report of Crimes and Police Activity for 2001 Recommendation: 4/6/2004 • • Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Receive and file the following report. Page 13 of 19 Background and Analysis: With an increase in the number of reported assaults for the calendar year of 2001, an analysis has been done in regards to the types of assaults that occurred. During 2001, the police department reported 141 assaults on its year end statistical report. However, after extracting the individual reports from the computer system, there were only 132 assaults that could be accounted for, during 2001. During the course of the year, reports are sometimes modified or reclassified for a variety of reasons that would have reduced this number. It should also be noted that assaults are classified into two major categories, aggravated and simple. Aggravated assaults simply put, describe assaults where a deadly weapons was used, (gun, knife, bat, etc.), or where hands, fists, or feet are used resulting in an aggravated injury. Simple assaults are classified as a battery that has taken place yet there are not significant injuries or no injuries have occurred. It has been the policy of the Hermosa Beach Police Department to report all assaults. We have learned that it is the policy of some surrounding police agencies to only report aggravated assaults. Domestic violence assaults are also classified within these numbers along with assaults on police officers and these categories are broken apart from regular assaults. The breakdown of assaults is as follows: 42 - Domestic Violence assaults 17 - Aggravated assaults 25 - Simple assaults 37 - Simple assaults (no injury to minor injury) 48 - Aggravated assaults 4 - Aggravated assaults on Police Officers 1 - Simple assault on a Police Officer 132 - Total Assaults Domestic Violence accounts for 32% of all of the assaults for 2001. A total of 53 assaults (40% of the total) were reported in the downtown area. Of these 53 assaults, 4 were domestic violence assaults and 4 were assaults on our police officers. There were 17 simple assaults and 28 aggravated assaults. Calls for service for the downtown area were also examined. In the computer, the downtown area is between 10th Street to 16th Street and from The Strand to Palm Dr. including a small section of Manhattan Avenue from Pier Avenue to 14th Street. Calls for service includes those called in by citizens as well as self -initiated by police officers. These totals do not reflect all activity in the downtown area. For example, these numbers do not reflect burglary reports, traffic accidents, etc. , which occurred in the downtown area. The categories listed are the types of call that were searched. Calls for Service categories Downtown Citywide Total Calls regarding fighting and assaults 65 159 Calls regarding a reported rape 5 19 Disturbance calls 998 3074 4/6/2004 • • Family disturbance calls 12 154 Disturbance calls regarding loud parties 26 633 Drunk and disorderly calls 60 196 Totals - Calls for Service categories • 1166 4235 Page 14 of 19 In the first two categories, a call regarding a fight or a rape did not necessarily mean that an assault or rape took place, or that a report was even taken. Some of these calls were probably officer initiated for example when officer come upon a fight in progress. Disturbance calls are not only a result of calling in but also include self -initiated calls by officers. With the numbers of officers assigned to the downtown foot patrol beats with the mission of being proactive, it should be understandable that a number of calls would be self -initiated by them. As a point of reference, there were a total of 32,322 calls for service citywide during the year 2001. The 1166 calls illustrated above represents only 3.6% of this call volume. Foot patrols in the downtown area will continue not only on the weekend nights but will now be expanded to Thursday and Sunday evenings as well. Staff feels that the presence of foot patrols over the past few years has in fact reduced the number of assaults and other related crimes in the downtown area that would have occurred if the patrols had not been deployed. The police department will also continue to organize special details to focus enforcement efforts on crime problems citywide. Respectfully submitted, Michael Lavin, Chief of Police Stephen Burrell Hermosa Beach Police Department City Manager The following Hermosa Beach crime statistics are from the above letter titled: Statistical Report of Crimes and Police Activity for 2001 By HBPD Chief of Police Michael Lavin Calls for Service in the Hermosa Beach downtown area compared to citywide Calls for Service in year 2001. Hermosa Beach 2001 Calls for Service categories Downtown Citywide Total 1.

Calls regarding a reported rape 5 5/19=.2631 In 2001, the downtown area total of 5 calls for reported a rape makes up 26 percent of the Hermosa Beach citywide total of 19 reported rape calls. 4/6/2004 19 • • Page 15 of 19 3,_DisAurbance calls 998 3074 998 / 3074 = .3246 In 2001, the downtown area total of 998 disturbance calls makes up 32 percent of the Hermosa Beach citywide total of 3074 disturbance calls. 4. Drunk and disorderly calls 60 196 60/196=.3061 In 2001, the downtown area total of 60 drunk and disorderly calls makes up 30 percent of the Hermosa Beach citywide total of 196 drunk and disorderly calls. The following paragraph regarding assault crime statistics is also from the above letter titled: Statistical Report of Crimes and Police Activity for 2001 By HBPD Chief of Police Michael Lavin The following is the second paragraph from this letter. It should also be noted that assaults are classified into two major categories, aggravated and simple. Aggravated assaults simply put, describe assaults where a deadly weapons was used, (gun, knife, bat, etc.), or where hands, fists, or feet are used resulting in an aggravated injury. Simple assaults are classified as a battery that has taken place yet there are not significant injuries or no injuries have occurred. It has been the policy of the Hermosa Beach Police Department to report all assaults. We have learned that it is the policy of some surrounding police agencies to only report aggravated assaults. Domestic violence assaults are also classified within these numbers along with assaults on police officers and these categories are broken apart from regular assaults. Regarding the sentence that is in bold: "It has been the policy of the Hermosa Beach Police Department to report all assaults. We have learned that it is the policy of some surrounding police agencies to only report aggravated assaults." This previous sentence in bold, has major implications on all crime statistic totals that are used in newspapers, broadcast media and for all city governments that use reported crime statistic information to make decisions. Both Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach have records for all aggravated and simple assaults. But Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach do not report simple assaults as part of the assault totals that they give to the reporting agency that compiles the California Crime Index. Hermosa Beach does report all aggravated and simple assaults for its assault totals. Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach only report aggravated assaults for the total for assaults to be reported to the California Crime Index. Simple assault totals are almost always more numerous than aggravated assault totals. The 4/6/2004 • • Page 16 of 19 action of not reporting simple assaults in reported crime totals will significantly reduce the amount of crime that is reported to a reporting agency that compiles crime statistics. The Redondo Beach crime statistics are available on the: RBPD website: http:l/www.redondo.oSldeptslpolice/crimelcrime statistics.asp 2002-2003 Crime Statistics City -Wide and The Redondo Beach Police Archive 1991 to 2003 at: http:/Iwww.redondo.org/deptslpolice/crime/crime_statistics archiveasp Redondo Beach Yearly Reported Assault Totals 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 222 230 221 227 251 189 139 107 82 113 116 119 117 The Redondo Beach Police Department website does state that the 2002 assaults of 119 and the 2003 assault total of 117 are for aggravated assaults only. In 1995, Redondo Beach reported a total of 251 assaults. By 1999, the reported assaults in Redondo Beach dropped to a total of only 82. This is a drop of more than 67 percent. No other Part 1 crime total in Redondo Beach came close to showing such a dramatic reduction between years 1995 and 1999. This reduction in the number of assaults in Redondo Beach occurred within the 1993 to 2003 time period that is used in the March 13, 2004 The Daily Breeze front page news story titled: Crime rate dips to 10 -year low - SOUTH BAY: Former Secretary of State Jones says the three -strikes law is the reason for the decline, but others call it part of a general trend. The attachment is this e-mail is the crime statistics graphic used for March 13, 2004 The Daily Breeze news story. The graphic includes crime statistics for South Bay cities and it is titled: 1993-2003: How statistics have fallen All the South Bay crime statistics in this news story are of little value, unless it can be confirmed what cities are reporting only aggravated assault totals and what cities are reporting aggravated and simple assaults for the assault crime totals. Another key point is; what year were the simpleassault totals excluded as part of the reported assault totals. There is another problem with these reported crime statistics for burglary. Hermosa Beach reports the burglary totals that include all residential, commercial and automobile burglaries. Manhattan Beach does not include automobile burglary in the reported burglary totals. Manhattan Beach reports only Residential and Commercial burglary for the burglary totals. The Manhattan Beach automobile burglary totals are included as part of the theft or larceny totals. The larceny totals were not used in The Daily Breeze March 13, 2004 crime rate news story. This fact provides more of a reduction in the crime statistics. The Daily Breeze news story used the totals for serious crimes from the Califomia Crime Index which 4/6/2004 • • Page 17 of 19 measures homicide, rape, assault, burglary and auto theft, not larceny. The crime totals used in The Daily Breeze news story are not of any value unless each city has the same reporting standards for each crime total for all of the ten years from 1993 to 2003. The Daily Breeze - March 13, 2004 Crime rate dips to 10 -year low SOUTH BAY: Former Secretary of State Jones says the three -strikes law is the reason for the decline, but others call it part of a general trend. By Larry Altman Daily Breeze The number of major crimes in the South Bay and Harbor Area dropped to its lowest level in 10 years in 2003, prompting proponents of the "three strikes, you're out" law to take credit for the decline. Overall, the region is down 44 percent in major crime from where it was a decade ago, the same time the three - strikes law went into effect. That's more than 14,000 fewer homicides, rapes, robberies, auto thefts, burglaries and assaults — the felonies used by Justice Department officials to measure crime rates in the state's cities. 'As we look back at this anniversary, there are tens of thousands of fewer crime victims and thousands of individuals alive today due to this vital law," former Secretary of State Bill Jones said in a statement. "The statistics tell the story. All crime is down in California, particularly violent crime? Others, however, believe the 10 - year decline is a result of a better economy that began in the mid-1990s. Other states without the law also have seen dramatic declines, said Robert Parker of the Robert Presley Center for Crime and Justice Studies at the University of Califomia, Riverside. "Most people who analyze the criminal justice system carefully find that three strikes has had very little impact," Parker said. "One obvious question is 'If three strikes is having such an Impact, why has it gone down in other states?' " A compilation of crime numbers that local police agencies sent to the state Department of Justice, and that were collected by the Daily Breeze, show that the region dropped 6.2 percent in major crime in 2003 over the previous year. The decline eradicated a slight bump up in 2002. Although their overall crime numbers remain low, the news was not good for every city, however. Recording increases in 2003 from a year earlier were El Segundo, Hawthorne, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach and Torrance. Down were Carson, Gardena, Lawndale, Manhattan Beach, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates and the Harbor Area, which includes San Pedro, Wilmington, Harbor Gateway and Harbor City. The statistics show: • Of the cities with increases, El Segundo topped the list with the largest rise — 16.3 percent. Hawthorne, with the most crimes of any South Bay municipality, recorded a nearly 5 percent increase from 2002. Sharp jumps in homicide and assaults overtook declines in each of the other crime categories in the city. • Of the six major crime categories, homicide was the one to rise in the South Bay as a whole, primarily because 4/6/2004 • of Hawthorne's 140 per -cent increase with 12 murders, which were tied to gang activity. • Lawndale led the South Bay with an 18.5 percent decline. Page 18 of 19 . The Harbor Division was down nearly 14 percent. The Los Angeles Police Department said officers are working in a better environment under Chief William Bratton and no longer fear getting into trouble as they work to battle criminals as they did under former Police Chief Bernard Parks. • Torrance crime was up 3.7 percent in 2003, primarily because of a rise in burglary and auto theft. The cities with increases mirror what is happening throughout the state. Last October, state Attorney General Bill Lodger released findings that during the first six months of 2003, crime actually went up just under 1 percent in the state's most populous cities. Homicides, rapes, robberies and aggravated assaults dropped statewide, but burglary and motor vehicle theft increased. Nine South Bay cities showed increases in auto theft and six went up in burglary, similar to the state. But the overall number showing the lowest rate of major crime in the South Bay in a decade was good news for proponents of the three -strikes law, which voters passed to put habitual criminals away for lengthy periods of time. Wayne Strumpfer, deputy director of the Califomia District Attorneys Association, which represents 58 district attorneys in the state, said the "lowering of the crime rate is connected to three strikes and all of the other tough sentences" approved by the Legislature in recent years. "It is counterintuitive to think three strikes doesn't have anything to do with the lowering of crime," Strumpfer said. Parker, however, said the economy that was robust through the latter part of the 1990s should get the primary credit. "The whole country had a crime drop in the '90s, in some cases higher than California," Parker said. Parker said the drop "makes a nice story for (former Secretary of State Bill) Jones," who wrote the three -strikes law and is running for the U.S. Senate. But, he said, he believes the law ensnares people who commit nonviolent crimes as their third strike. In Los Angeles County, however, District Attorney Steve Cooley does not file cases as third strikes unless they involve violent crime. Locally, Los Angeles police Capt. Patrick Gannon said the crime drop in the Harbor Area can also be attributed to more aggressive police work under a new police chief who allows his officers to do their jobs. Officers say they previously had feared the complaint process under former Chief Parks. "There was a sense of fear that if they went out and did their job they would get into trouble and it would impact their career," Gannon said. "(Chief) Bratton said, 'Go out and take care of crime, make arrests and engage the criminal element.' That's what the officers were looking for? The Harbor station's arrests were up 18 percent in 2003. A large percentage of the arrests were for drinking in public and vagrancy, which took people off the street who commit property crimes, Gannon said. Capt. Rick Adams of the Lennox sheriffs station said Lawndale's Targe drop was aided with the arrest of suspects in a series of robberies, and tracking crimes by combining the efforts of patrol deputies and special assignment officers to make arrests. "I will always say some of it is just luck," Adams said. "There is a combination of good police work and luck." March 4, 2004 Honorable Chairman and Members of the Regular Meeting of Hermosa Beach Planning Commission March 16, 2004 4/6/2004 • • SUBJECTS: REVIEW OF INCIDENT REPORTS FOR PIER PLAZA AND DOWNTOWN AREA Recommendation: That the Planning Commission receive and file this report. Page 19 of 19 Backqround: On January 20, 2004, the Planning Commission conducted an annual review of downtown conditional use permits and directed staff to provide police incidents reports for the businesses. The incident reports were provided at the February 17, 2004 meeting and the Commission reviewed the incident reports and a memorandum from the Police Chief. The Planning Commission directed staff to set a hearing for review of two business conditional use permits and further directed staff to have the code enforcement officer investigate whether there were any code or CUP violations. Analysis: In response to the Commission direction, staff has reviewed the incident information again and rather than proceeding at this time on a program to review two businesses, staff suggests a broader approach to deal with area problems or concerns. This approach should focus on a reduction of the number of police and fire response calls and ensure that the Downtown area is not taking an undo amount of city resources. As you may be aware, from time to time staff has met with representatives of all of the Pier Plaza and Downtown businesses to review issues and concerns that have been expressed about the operation of businesses, general activities and special events. These meetings have been an effective communication tool in the past, and with active and continued participation by all concerned parties, staff is confident that they can be an effective tool to deal with the present concerns. The task for this group will be to come up an area wide approach and solutions that result in less need for police response in the downtown. The group will include participation from area merchants and staff and can be expanded to include others, should there be broader interest in participating. Once the group has developed strategies and a consensus for dealing with area concerns, staff will document the recommendations, which can be made available to the Planning Commission and the City Council for review and possible response. Further actions may Include changes to conditional use permits or other parts of the Municipal Code. This approach is being suggested as it is difficult to lay the blame at any one business in the area. Hopefully, this will allow for a broad discussion of the problem and potential solutions.

The public hearing opened at 8:02 p.m. Coming forward to address the Council on this item were: Frank Hallstein — Hermosa Lock and Safe on Pier Avenue, said he was at the recent public meeting to discuss this issue and thought it was poorly attended because the notice on red paper appeared more like a flyer than an official public notice; said upper Pier was a shopping area for locals and was passed by busses dropping off visitors at the Fiestas; said parking meters would make conditions worse; described placards used in Rivera Village in Redondo Beach for employee parking; Blake Mitchell — owner of the laundromat on Pier Avenue, said his change machines were already being used by people needing change to park downtown and, with parking meters on upper Pier Avenue, he would have to go to the bank even more often to replenish his quarters; suggested that the City consider installing public change machines; Evie Reynolds — office manager for Irvine Chiropractic on Pier Avenue, agreed that parking problems on upper Pier would worsen with the installation of parking meters; said a quarter for 15 minutes was too expensive; also said employees should not have to pay to park at their jobs; Ed Hart — Maximus Salon, agreed that the proposed parking rate was too high; suggested that it be lowered and, if necessary, increased after people are accustomed to the concept; said parking meters would be a major inconvenience for his clients; Joe Carrillo — Fritto Misto Restaurant, said there was currently not enough parking for the weekend dinner crowd; said the loss of parking at the Von's parking structure had made conditions worse, as would the installation of parking meters; City Council Minutes 03-23-04 Page 11366 r • Bonnie Moton — Star's Antiques, said they had 50 dealers for their consignment store and it was not practical to expect them to carry goods for blocks; hoped that there would be some short-term parking; Carla Merriman — Executive Director of the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce, suggested that a portion of the funds generated by the parking meters be used for advertising the businesses on upper Pier Avenue and/or to replace the current marquee with an electronic one that is more attractive and could be programmed from an office computer instead of having to manually change it using Public Works staff on a cherry picker; and Alan Benson — Hermosa Beach, expressed concern that the installation of parking meters would force employees to park in residential areas. The public hearing closed at 8:20 p.m. Action: To direct staff to proceed with the purchase and installation of parking meters at an estimated cost of $29,767, with funds appropriated as follows: $25,967 from the Parking Fund for meter purchases and $3,800 from Prospective Expenditures for installation costs (signs, poles, etc.), as recommended by staff, and to install public change machines on eitherr side of the street.

Concur: Viki Copeland Finance Director City Manager 2d A 1 PUBLIC WORKS COMMISSION MEETING OF WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 2004 COUNCIL CHAMBERS 1315 VALLEY DRIVE HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA 7:00 P.M. MINUTES The meeting was called to order at 7:05 p.m. 1. Roll Call Present: Commissioners, Applebaum, Beste, Cheatham, Lombardo Commissioner Winnek arrived at 7:07 p.m. Also Present: Richard Morgan, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Ray Abassi, Contract Traffic Engineer Michael Flaherty, Public Works Superintendent Rhea Punneo, Administrative Assistant, Public Works Department Absent: None 2. Flaq Salute Commissioner Lombardo led the flag salute. 3. Approval of Minutes Minutes were approved as written. 4. Public Comments None. 5. Correspondence None. 6. Items for Commission Consideration a. Request to Reduce Green Time for Westbound Left -Turn Arrow on Aviation Blvd. at Prospect Ave. Mr. Morgan presented a brief history and then turned the floor to Ray Abassi, City Traffic Engineer. Mr. Abassi reviewed his presentation done the last time this change had been requested, approximately a year ago. Mr. Abassi stated that if the timing were changed, the signal would not be operating at optimum conditions, that cars would be waiting two to three cycles to make the left turn. Mr. Abassi noted that there might be more "cut -through" traffic due to people using Prospect to avoid the traffic delays on Pacific Coast Highway. Of primary concern is the left -turn movement to southbound Prospect Avenue from westbound Aviation. e • • Mr. Morgan advised that the best solution to this problem could be the upcoming improvements scheduled for Pacific Coast Highway at Aviation Blvd. Caltrans is aware of this situation and has agreed that this is a high-priority project. Mr. Ray Abassi presented the results of the most recent traffic study in this area. It was determined that before any action could be taken, the problem needed to be clearly defined (possibly conducting a license plate survey) and reviewed as to the impact of any timing modification. Mr. Morgan noted that Council voted to take no further action at that time as the separate left -turn signal was initially designed as a safety measure to protect left -turns. It was also noted that Prospect Avenue is classified as a collector street and the purpose of a collector street is to carry traffic from minor streets to major arterial streets. The floor was then opened to public comments. Tim Podczervienskv, 1021 Prospect • The arrow green so long it invites traffic. • Would like to have tum restrictions implemented to keep traffic out during peak commuter hours. • Backing out of a driveway is dangerous due to the high volume of traffic and the high rates of speed at which they travel. • Speeding between Prospect and 8th needs to be addressed, preferably by stop signs. • Speeds and traffic has increased dramatically. • Even though Prospect is classified as a collector street, it is a residential street for them. Victor Rivers. 1091 10th Street • Resident since 1991 on the Northwest corner of 10'" and Prospect and has an aerial view of this location. • Has noticed speeds of 40, 45, up to 60 mph daily. • Has witnessed 15 accidents and hears them often. • Many children live on the street; believes just a matter of time before a pedestrian is hit. • Feels a stop sign at 10th Street would alleviate the situation, two stop signs would be better. Roger Bardeau, 535 Prospect • 12 year resident and has seen an incredible increase in traffic. • Lives at the intersection of 5th and 6th and Prospect, a staggered intersection that makes it difficult to back out of the driveway or cross the street. • Believes stop sign would be an improvement, but sees motorists ignoring stop signs. • Due to increased population, optimal solution could be to divert traffic away from this area. • Utmost concern should be for the safety of residents in this area. Terry Leighton, 583 Prospect • Also at comer of 6th and Prospect. • Would like to see four-way stop implemented to force motorists to look both ways. • Have noticed motorists rolling through stop signs. • Currently no crosswalks to access Fort Lots -of -Fun — they are needed. PWC Minutes 2 03/24/04 • • Al Hodges, 1020 Prospect Ave. • Resident since 1973. • Said traffic is either backed -up bumper -to -bumper or speeding. • Has seen increased truck traffic on Prospect. • Have seen many cars ignoring posted speed limit and stop signs. Mary Laqa, 920 Prospect Avenue • Mother of three children, walks to Hermosa View School daily said crossing Aviation is a nightmare and has had several near misses. • Witnessed a mother with a stroller in the crosswalk at 9th & Prospect when a large pick- up drove through as if she wasn't there. • Not sure of solution, stop signs are not working — maybe speed bumps. • Possibly posting signs that say 'not a thoroughfare' as on Meadows in Manhattan Beach. Johan Tondeur, 920 Prospect Avenue • Asked when a license plate survey be done. • Said would like Commission to seek creative ways to make traveling on Prospect less desirable. • Stop signs are not working, maybe speed bumps would be helpful. • Suggested cutting Prospect at 5th so that traffic is forced down to PCH. Discussion among the Commissioners highlighted the following: • Would decreasing green time deter traffic from this area? Impact on the surrounding areas? • Should review the green time duration and turn restrictions in the surrounding areas to determine which creates the increased traffic. • Prospect was designed as a collector to service the surrounding streets. • Must consider jurisdictional lines with Redondo Beach when implementing any changes and/or modifications. • Speed humps not permitted on Prospect. • Have to remember that solutions to reduce speeds on Prospect may force traffic onto residential streets. • When PCH/Aviation re -signaled will enhance traffic flow. • Traffic signals and/or stop signs do not reduce volume, but additional traffic signals would help to better manage traffic rather than looking for ways to restrict traffic. • Focus of all modifications and/or changes should be on resident safety. • Enforcement of speed limits on Prospect needed. • It was clarified that only local delivery trucks are allowed on Prospect. • Mr. Abassi discussed new technology that is now available to assist with pedestrian crossing safety. • Cost to modify timing not a factor. MOTION by Commissioner Winnek to: 1. Forward the Public Works Commission's request to the HBPD to immediately intensify enforcement of traffic laws on Prospect; 2. Modify the signal timing for a 60 -day period to decrease the number of vehicles turning south onto Prospect from Aviation; and 3. Have staff prepare a detailed traffic survey of the area with the actual scope to be determined staff. PWC Minutes 3 03/24/04 • • Seconded by Commissioner Lombardo. Discussion prior to the vote determined that the survey would be taken concurrently with 60 - day trial period and would include the areas that appear to most impacted by the traffic flow. AYES: Applebaum, Beste, Cheatham, Lombardo, Winnek NAYS: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None b. Pavement Management Study Mr. Morgan informed the Commission that the firm producing the Pavement Management Study is experiencing a software glitch, which is delaying presentation of the completed study. This in turn delays the compilation of the Capital Improvement Program Five -Year Plan. Mr. Morgan then introduced Yaz Emrani, P.E. of Advanced Infrastructure Management, the firm preparing the study. Mr. Emrani's presentation consisted of an overview of the study and findings and an explanation of terms used. Discussion of this item highlighted the following: • Once the glitches are worked out of the software, the complete report will be presented to the Commission. • Can program be updated as repairs and changes are made? Yes. • Collector and arterial streets can benefit by overlays but residential streets will need reconstruction. • City is currently at a level of 49.6, would like to get to and maintain a level of 60. • Timing of street improvements may not be determined by PCI alone. • Staff will look at various methods of asphalt versus concrete repairs to determine which is most cost-effective. • Stopgap measures may be used to keep streets at current levels rather than letting them deteriorate more. • It was suggested that a CIP sub -committee be formed to assist with project selection. MOTION by Commissioner Applebaum to receive and file report. Seconded by Commissioner Lombardo. AYES: Applebaum, Beste, Cheatham, Lombardo, Winnek NAYS: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None The Commissioners then determined that the members of the sum -committee would be Mr. Applebaum and Mr. Beste. The objective of this sub -committee will be to work with Staff and present a completed Five -Year Plan to Council. The sub -committee has established a timeline of meeting to be prepared for the May meeting. c. Steam Cleaning with the Public Right -Of -Way It had been requested by Commissioner Cheatham that the steam cleaning agreement be brought before the Commission before going out to bid. In point of fact, the contract did not go out for bid, instead Council approved a three-year extension of the steam contract with Eklund's BLASTOFF. The terms of the extension reduced the overall annual cost, and will allow for additional areas to be included. PWC Minutes 4 03/24/04 • • Discussion among the Commissioners included the following: • Strand walkouts are cleaned on a case-by-case basis. Mr. Flaherty will obtain a price for this to be done on a regular basis. • The trash enclosures are not cleaned by Eklund's BLASTOFF! • Improvements have been made to the cleaning process that reduce water and collect grease and oil. • Garage steam cleaners are asked to check surrounding area for people before starting. • Merchants not disposing of waste properly is a continuing problem. • Concern was expressed for the public right-of-way areas used for outdoor dining by merchants. It was suggested to the merchants to utilize the services of BLASTOFF for these areas and some have done so. • It was suggested that an increase in the cost of their encroachment permits to cover the cost of cleaning these areas might be the way to go. Deodorant and/or disinfectant have been added to steam cleaning products. Mr. Morgan will discuss this with the steam -cleaning contractor. MOTION by Commissioner Cheatham to receive and file as recommended. Seconded by Commissioner Lombardo. AYES: Applebaum, Beste, Cheatham, Lombardo, Winnek NAYS: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None 7. Commissioners' Reports None. 8. Council Minutes —1/27/04, 2/10/04; Agendas — 2/24/04, 3/9/04 Receive and file all. 9. Items Requested by Commissioners Commissioner Cheatham suggested that additional signage be placed at 2nd Street east of Pacific Coast Highway to keep cars from entering the one way area, current signage too high and residents have complained. Also suggested posting a sign that indicates the amount of the fine. Mr. Morgan advised that enforcement has been requested and he hopes to have the information for the next meeting. Also, he's looking into placing a digital, changeable sign where the fine can be posted. Mr. Morgan stated that he is open to any signage suggestions. Commissioner Beste inquired about the City's AB939 compliance issues. Mr. Morgan advised that here in Hermosa Public Works isn't involved in AB939, the City Manager and Community Development are responsible for compliance. Currently, Public Works is working on new policies that will require projects of $100,000 or greater and residential demolition to provide their own recycling on site. Mr. Morgan will bring information back to the Commission within the next two meetings. Commissioner Applebaum: • Asked for an update on manhole covers on Pacific Coast Highway. Mr. Flaherty advised that replacement will be approximately $10 — $50,000 citywide. The lids are worn down and cannot be easily replaced as the lid manufacturer is out of business All new frames and lids with locking mechanisms will be installed. Phase 1 consists of 30 — 35 PWC Minutes 5 03/24/04 • • replacements citywide; approximately 20 will be installed on PCH at one time. Mr. Flaherty will bring in a drawing at the next meeting. • Requested that due to volleyball season ongoing at the high schools that volleyball poles at the beach be checked for maintenance issues. Mr. Flaherty advised that he will add this to his list for review and informed the Commission that all new poles have been put into use at City courts. • Inquired about a schedule for right/left turn lanes on Pacific Coast Highway/Pier. Mr. Morgan believes striping for handicap and crosswalk will be completed next week and the entire project should be completed within the month. 10. Other Matters Mr. Morgan informed Commission that Caltrans has approved the traffic signal at Wand Pacific Coast Highway as per the new development for 24 Hour Fitness. Mr. Flaherty's announcements included: • Council approved the Strand lighting project — 10th and 11th to 15th and 141h with new lights, flashers, signs, new sandwich boards, a manual switch installed so the light will go out automatically, as requested by the PD. Also the speed limit has been changed from 10 to 8 mph. It will take several weeks to replace signing and striping at the 40 - 50 locations. • Arrival of new trashcans citywide and 200 have been installed. Goal is to have 100 —150 recycling cans on the street along with the trashcans. Working with Long Beach Conservation Corps who will be picking up recyclables. Recycling program should be started in two months. • 11'h and Ardmore Ave. street collapse was due to a damaged sewer line. It has been repaired. 11. Public Comment None. 12. Adjournment Chairman Lombardo adjourned the meeting at 9:29 p.m. to the meeting of April 21, 2004.

April 13, 2004 REQUEST TO PURCHASE ONE (1) CHEVY SILVERADO PICK-UP TRUCK FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that Council: 1. Authorize the purchase of one (1) new Chevy Silverado 1500 Extended Cab pick-up truck from Wondries Fleet Group of Alhambra, Califomia in the amount of $24,016 (including tax and California tire fees). 2. Appropriate $16,000 from the Asset Forfeiture Fund and $8,016 from the Citizen's Option for Public Safety (COPS) fund for the purchase of this vehicle. 3. Appropriate an additional amount of $1,606 from the Citizen's Option for Public Safety (COPS) for the set-up of this vehicle to be done by the South Bay Regional Public Communications Authority (RCC). BACKGROUND The Hermosa Beach Police Department participates in a regional crime fighting team known as LA IMPACT. The Police Department has assigned one officer to this team. LA IMPACT targets major drug dealers and violent criminals in the Los Angeles region. LA IMPACT is comprised of police officers from many of the police departments of Los Angeles County, the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department and Federal law enforcement agencies such as Customs and the Department of Drug Enforcement (DEA). Currently, the officer assigned from our department is furnished with a leased vehicle by L.A. IMPACT. However, due to budget constraints, LA IMPACT can no longer provide this leased vehicle. It is therefore necessary to purchase a vehicle for our officer assigned to this team. As the members of LA IMPACT conduct a number of surveillances, the use of ordinary vehicles is very important. Our officer currently drives a leased Chevy Silverado pick-up truck. It is the intent of staff to supply the same type of vehicle. In 2003/2004, the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department awarded Wondries Fleet Group in Alhambra the open competitive bid to supply their agency with a variety of different vehicles including the Chevy Silverado pick-up truck. The high volume purchases made by the Los Angeles County sheriffs Department allows for the lowest possible acquisition cost for these various vehicles. Wondries Fleet Group in Alhambra bid the lowest price cost per identically equipped vehicle. These bid prices are also available to the City of Hermosa Beach. 2f a • • This vehicle will be ordered as part of Los Angeles County Bid #0364375. It is recommended that Council authorize staff to purchase this vehicle from Wondries Fleet Group of Alhambra for $24,016. This price includes the 8.25% sales tax and a California tire fee. FISCAL IMPACT The funds for the purchase of this vehicle will need to be appropriated from the Asset Forfeiture Fund ($16,000) and the Citizen's Option for Public Safety (COPS) fund ($8,016). The total cost is $24,016. An additional amount of $1,606 to be appropriated from the COPS fund to set-up the vehicle for surveillance work.

Authorize the contract award for fire apparatus preventative maintenance in the amount of $28,000.00 be awarded to American La France of Los Angeles. BACKGROUND The' continuation of an annual fire apparatus preventative maintenance program provides a means of addressing the road safety of emergency apparatus, the safety of responding firefighters, and the safety of other drivers and property. The fire department emergency apparatus fleet is comprised of three fire engines and two ambulances. These vehicles are driven daily for department business and driven code three daily to emergencies. The current fire department annual fire apparatus preventative maintenance program allows a high measure of apparatus road safety by insuring an inspection format that follows the National Fire Protection Standard 1915 and the Califomia Highway Patrol 37 point vehicle inspection standards: The nature of these standards require that a contracted fire apparatus maintenance vendor hold recognized qualifications and certifications such as Standard for Emergency Vehicle Technicians (EVT) certification, and Master Level certification with the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). The fire department has budgeted monies during the fiscal year 2003/2004 for an annual fire apparatus preventative maintenance program. In February of this year a RFP (Request for Proposal) was published inviting sealed bids for this program. Sealed bids were opened February 19, 2004. The city received (3) bids from qualified vendors, American La France of Los Angeles, Emergency Vehicle Solutions, and Precision Fleet Maintenance. The fire department carefully assessed the merits of each bidder based on experience, references, cost, financial stability, ability to service. in a timely manner, and scope of services offered. American La France of Los Angeles was identified as submitting the most attractive package with the lowest hourly rate bid. 1 2g • • FISCAL IMPACT The total cost for the contract award for fire apparatus preventative maintenance to American La France of Los Angeles is $28,000. The current 2003/2004 budget currently has $30,770 appropriated for the preventative maintenance program.

Approve the purchase and installation of"Source Capture Vehicle Exhaust Removal System" for the Fire Department from Cleary Air Cleaning Systems. BACKGROUND The fire department was successful in gaining approval for federal assistance funding in the form of the Assistance To Firefighters Grant Program. This FEMA based grant program targets assisting fire departments in the purchase of equipment and programs that will enhance fire operations and firefighter safety. The fire department identified the need to enhance firefighter and administrative personnel health and safety by the purchase and installation of a "Source Capture Vehicle Exhaust Removal System". With this system in place, all apparatus parked inside the apparatus bay of the fire station will be connected to the system, eliminating potentially hazardous engine exhaust. The fire department received system cost estimates from vendors for $53,000.00 and higher. The amount of $53,000.00 was submitted on the grant application with the understanding that grant guidelines would only fund $47,700.00 if approved. The city budgeted monies, $53,000.00, during the fiscal year 2003/2004 from the Fire Protection Fund for the entire purchase of the "Source Capture Vehicle Exhaust Removal System". With Council approval of the FEMA grant funds of $47,700.00 at the February 10, 2004 council meeting, only $5300.00 of the budgeted monies will be encumbered. The fire department solicited sealed bids from vendors for the purchase and installation of the identified "Source Capture Vehicle Exhaust Removal System".

COMMERCIAL EVENT AVP Hermosa Open Beach Volleyball Tournament July 22-25 $36,914.00 Background The City works in coordination with event operators to consider the needs of residents and to enhance opportunities for exposure to local businesses. Special events provide residents and visitors with unique recreational experiences that are of intergenerational appeal. The AVP has a long-standing history of producing professional beach volleyball tournaments to large spectator crowds. The Hermosa Open has become a well -anticipated tradition to the local volleyball community. For the past five years the AVP has partnered with IMG to produce the Mervyns Beach Bash in June during the off-season, which encompassed the Hermosa Open. This year, the AVP has proposed a stand-alone "grand slam" tournament during the high -impact month of July. The attached letter of request serves to appeal staff recommendation of adherence to City ordinances. Specifically, event operators are requesting alcohol consumption and food concessions on the beach. The Departments of Community Resources, Police, Fire, Community Development, and Public Works met to discuss both operational and safety concerns pertinent to AVP requests. The minutes of this meeting are attached for perusal. DATE FEES(est.) AVP Request Commission Recommendation Event Date July 22-25, 2004 Event Set -Up July 19-21, 2004 Event Tear Down July 26-28, 2004 Commission recommends approval of dates specified for event set-up, implementation, and tear down. Staff has recommended an additional day of tear down to accommodate beach steam cleaning by the County and installation of volleyball courts, once the beach has been cleared. 1 5a Merchandise Sales on the Beach • Per City ordinance 12.20.300. no person shall sell or offer for sale any foods, refreshments. drinks or other goods, wares, or merchandise upon the beach or strand. Commission does not recommend violation of City ordinance. The special event policy stipulates sampling of products only, so as not to compete with local merchant sales of product, food, and drink. • The special event policy permits sales on the beach of event-sanctioned AVP merchandise only. • The special event policy permits four (4) additional vendors to sell merchandise on Pier Plaza in association with the event. The Chamber of Commerce does not support sales of merchandise or food on the beach. Alcohol Consumption on Beach the Per City ordinance, 12.20.040, no person shall possess, transport, deliver, sell, give away, purchase, or consume alcoholic beverages on the beach. Commission does not recommend violation of City ordinance. Beach Club Membership Reserved Seating & Per coastal commission policy, the AVP cannot charge admission to the proposed event, but may sell preferred seating for up to 24% of the total amount seating capacity. More than 75% of the seating capacity shall be available free of charge for general public use. Commission supports the limit imposed by the coastal commission. Modeling Search The Police Department is vehemently opposed to any type of model search, bikini contest. or beauty pageant. Crowd control and safety enforcement in the Pier Plaza and strand areas are most challenging over the holiday and summer weekends. Special events compound efforts required for safety enforcement. Commission supports the stance of safety personnel and does not recommend any activity, such as the model search, that may further incite crowds. Corporate Outing on the Beach (6:30PM — 10:00PM) During the busy summer months, commission recommends closure of all Friday and Saturday beach venues at 6:00PM. Beach activities further tax safety personnel whose primary concern is crowd control in the downtown area. A private corporate outing will invite onlookers and require extra security eflorts. Commission recommends AVP utilize one of the downtown restaurants or hotels to facilitate a corporate outing. I Fee Waiver Request • Commission does not recommend waiving fees for this commercial event. • AVP is a corporate entity: as such there is no precedence for fee exemption. The majority of fees charged are direct costs to the City. Direct costs are reflective of the four-day event only. • Indirect costs are recovered by the special event permit fee. The special event fees encompass costs associated with interdepartmental senior personnel for planning meetings, event coordination, inspections, site mapping, operational procedures, emergency preparedness, permit processing, traffic control, and communications.

In order to create a world-class event, it is important that the City of Hermosa Beach and the AVP work together to meet the requirements of such an event. This letter will touch upon some of the unique qualities of the AVP event, summarize the benefits that the City. of Hermosa Beach (and its citizens and businesses) will be receiving, set out what services the AVP will be providing and what services the AVP is requesting the City of Hermosa to provide. INTRODUCTION ' The AVP would like to establish an annual beach volleyball "Grand Slam" event in Hermosa Beach that will rival, if not surpass, the AVP Manhattan Beach Open. In the past, the AVP has participated in IMG's Beach Bash. Due to conflicts in our respective sponsors, IMG and the AVP have mutually agreed that it is no longer feasible for the AVP to participate in the Beach Bash. However, we strongly believe that Hermosa Beach is the perfect venue for a stand-alone beach volleyball event because beach volleyball is synonymous with the culture of the City. In addition, our event would not restrict access to the beach for as long as the Beach Bash (nine days versus 14 days) and would require less City resources than the Beach Bash. The AVP has experienced an incredible increase in popularity since Leonard Armato purchased the AVP in 2001. Our events attract capacity crowds consisting of both local citizens and visitors, are televised nationally on both NBC and Fox Sports Net, and receive national publicity in such publications and newspapers as Sports Illustrated, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, New York Times among other major publications. We would like to make the Hermosa Beach Open one of our crown jewel events. However, we need support from the City of Hermosa Beach in order for us to achieve this goal. Attachment C THE EVENT • Event Date - Set -Up: July 19-21, 2004 - Event: July 22-25, 2004 - Breakdown: July 26-27, 2004 • Sales on Site Merchandise (Souvenirs) Food and drinks (including water) Beach club memberships and reserved seating up to the limit imposed by the Coastal Commission, if any. • General Event Activities • Pro Beach Volleyball Tournament Amateur Volleyball Tournament - PA announcing with emcee • Taped and live music - Sampling (Products TBD) • Sponsor Display and Promotion — To include various display tents, interactive areas, banners, flags and inflatables. To also include up to 9 sponsor display vehicles on site. Please note that sponsor sales and activation planning are still in progress, so some on-site sponsor activity/display is TBD. Television Filming - Radio Remote • Modeling Search (Tentative) — The AVP produced four Sports Illustrated Fresh Faces modeling competitions in conjunction with its tournaments in 2003. Among these tournaments was the Manhattan Beach Open. These promotions were handled in a highly professional manner, added to the overall presentation and impact of the tournaments and were well received by the fans and our host cities. The modeling competition would take place in the early afternoon for about one-half hour on both Saturday and Sunday of the toumament. • Amenities for Corporation Sponsors: The event will be competing with sports such as golf, tennis and basketball for corporate sponsorship support. There is the possibility of the AVP using the Hermosa Beach Open as the host tournament (and Hermosa Beach as the host city) for its annual corporate summit. This summit attracts top executives from some of the biggest corporations in the United States. However, in order to attract such business leaders to take time out of their schedules to attend the event, it is imperative that the event provides these individuals with first-class amenities and activities that compare favorable to other world-class sporting events. Among the amenities and activities that are necessary are the following: • • Evening Corporate Outing —This activity has proven to make our events especially rewarding and memorable for our event sponsors who arc the ones that make the event possible. Such outings entail a low-key post event get together on Friday or Saturday evening and include use of the main volleyball court and VIP arca for volleyball play and hospitality. The get-together would take place in the evening from approximately 6:30 PM to no later than 10:00 PM and would constitute essentially no public impact due to noise. If 10:00 PM is judged to be too late, the AVP would be amenable to a 8:00 PM timeline. VIP Hospitality with beer and wine service - Every sporting event of any stature provides corporate hospitality to its sponsors. Corporations sponsor events in part so they can entertain their important customers and clients at the events. Without hospitality, the AVP event will not be able to attract sufficient corporate sponsors to make the tournament a world- class event. I3ENEFITS TO THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH AVP events are unique and offer unparalleled benefits to the host city and to its citizens. The following highlights some of the benefits that the City of Hermosa Beach and its citizens and local businesses will be receiving if the AVP holds a premiere beach volleyball tournament in the city: • Title of the Event: The proposed event will include "Hermosa Beach" in the official title of the Event because the event will be called "The Hermosa Beach Open." While the title may also contain the name of one or more sponsors, "Hermosa Beach Open" will always be included —what this means is that all displays and mentions of the event on television (including on network television), print advertising and promotion, radio advertising and promotion and otherwise will always include references to Hermosa Beach. (e.g., the "Hermosa Beach Open") • National Television Broadcast of the Hermosa Beach Open: The proposed Hermosa Beach Open will be televised "live" nationally on NBC on both Saturday, July 22" and Sunday, July 23rd, 2004. We will ensure that NBC shows plenty of "beauty shots" of Hermosa Beach and its pier. The broadcasts will essentially serve as two 90 -minute commercials for the City of Hermosa Beach. The benefits of such exposure are numerous (increases in visitors to Hermosa Beach, increased business for local businesses, etc.). • National. Regional and Local Exposure for the City of Hermosa Beach: AVP events receive incredible exposure through local, regional and national broadcast, print and radio media. All of this media for the event will include Hermosa Beach. • Economic Value to the City of Hermosa Beach: In 2003, the AVP engaged a third party (SMRI) to determine the direct economic impact that an AVP event has on a host city. According to SMRI, the City of Manhattan Beach received S1,369,406 in direct economic impact by the AVP holding the Manhattan Beach Open in their community. In addition, Joyce Julius and Associates, Inc. calculated that the City of Manhattan Beach received a total of 58,697,444 impressions through national television, regional television, television advertising, print advertising, radio advertising, posters and flyers, and outdoor advertising and that these impressions were worth a total of S1,679,899. Not included in these numbers are the additional impressions that the City of Manhattan Beach received through various publicity (e.g., articles reporting on the tournament) regarding the event. The City of Hermosa Beach could expect the same type of economic impact and value if Hermosa Beach hosted the proposed event. • Top Athletic Competition, But Free: Beach Volleyball has been an Olympic sport since 1996 and the AVP features world class athletes such as current Gold Medal favorites Misty May and Kerri Walsh, 2000 Olympic Gold Medalists Eric Fonoimoana and Dain Blanton, three time Olympic Gold Medalist Karch Kiraly, 1996 silver medalist Mike Whitmarsh and Olympians . Holly McPeak, Annett Davis and Jenny Johnson Jordan. • Free Event: Unlike some other cities where the AVP goes (e.g., New Jersey, Las Vegas, Carson), we will not charge for general admission for the citizens of Hermosa Beach to witness such incredible athletes in action. The AVP event will be providing a tremendous public service for the citizens of Hermosa Beach. The event is free, very entertaining, and includes a wholesome family-friendly environment that drives a great many people to Hermosa Beach where they experience a memorable day on a City of Hermosa Beach beach. • Beach Lifestyle Environment: Close Contact With Athletes: The fans love the compelling "beach lifestyle" and enjoy watching great looking athletes and spectators. The fans especially value the accessibility to the AVP athletes and the personal connection that quickly develops with the sport. City Is Tied To The Event: Cities that host AVP events quickly realize that the AVP delivers a "tent pole" event that communities, fans and their families plan for each year. The Hermosa Beach Open will become the quintessential "tent pole" event. • • "Free" Clinics: Enormous Benefits to Kids: Typical sports athletes are accessible only through special guest appearances at expensive sports camps. The City of Hermosa Beach's partnership with the AVP will create a rare opportunity for the kids to enjoy invaluable time with world-class athletes exclusively delivered to them by the City of Hermosa Beach. • • Each child is "coached" by top AVP professionals on the basics of volleyball. Advanced techniques are also covered for high school players that posses the necessary skill level. No other volleyball camp, clinic or class in the world is able to boast the level of talent associated with an AVP clinic. • Professionally Run Event: The AVP is committed to running events in an exceedingly professional maturer. The design of the event, its professional staff and the way the event is produced all contribute.to one of the smoothest run professional events of its kind in the country. This leads directly to a very safe event environment that demands minimal government resources to oversee it. Ultimately, the event is a credit to the City of Hermosa Beach, the City's Recreation Department and its citizens and local businesses. SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY THE AVP • Costs of Event: Except for certain specific services to be provided by the City of Hermosa Beach, AVP shall be responsible for any and all costs in connection with the Hermosa Beach Open and any qualification tournament in connection with the Open. These costs will include all operational and production costs including stadium bleacher seating, television production, nets, sound equipment, volleyballs, scoreboards, announcer's platform, court siding, court lines, tents, booths, operational staff; volunteers, entertainment, etc. • Television Exposure: The AVP will agree to televise the Event on either network television (NBC) or major cable television (with carriage in at least 40 million households) each year and agrees to include "beauty shots" of the City of Hermosa Beach in the broadcasts, as well as numerous audio mentions of the City of Hermosa Beach. The City of Hermosa Beach shall have the right to use clips from such broadcast for marketing and promotional purposes without any charge (other than out-of-pocket costs for editing, transferring, remixing or third party clearances). • Media Exposure: AVP shall arrange for extensive local media coverage of the Event and will incorporate the City of Hermosa Beach in such coverage. • On -Site Promotion: AVP will provide promotion for the City of Hermosa Beach at the Event itself. Such promotion shall include public address announcements, a display/information booth at the Event to publicize City of Hermosa Beach programs (e.g., beach programs, recreation leagues, etc.), signage opportunities and the right to have a City of Hermosa Beach representative take part in the awards ceremony. • Volleyball Clinics and Exhibitions for City Recreation Programs and/or Local Schools: For the benefit of the City of Hermosa Beach, AVP shall provide the • • City with a youth beach volleyball clinic at the site or other mutually agreed upon location. The AVP will provide professional athletes to serve as group instructors and inspirational leaders. The clinic will take approximately 2 hours and AVP and its public relations firm will use best efforts to cause local media to cover these youth -oriented activities. The AVP athletes will also provide the children with autographs and photo opportunities. • Opportunity to Serve as Volunteers: AVP will also invite local area children to serve as volunteers at the event. Each volunteer will be provided with an official AVP Staff T-shirt, lunch, beverages, a visor, and interaction with the players. A special reserved seating section will also be made available during the men's and women's finals for the volunteers (and family). SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH As outlined above, an AVP event provides significant benefits to a city. In return, the AVP asks that a city provide a limited amount of services and support in order to ensure that the event is successful for the fans and all parties concerned. Specifically, the AVP requests the following in order to make this event commercially viable: Waiver of Fees In consideration of the previously mentioned benefits the AVP Hermosa Open will bring to the City of Hermosa Beach, the AVP asks the City to waive the following fees that do not represent an actual expense to the City: permit, set-up /. tear down, film & location and co-sponsor. Most cities that host AVP events provide significant public resources free of charge to the AVP as part of our agreement to bring an AVP event to their cities. Moreover, in cities where the AVP is prevented from charging for admission, cities either do not charge any permit fees whatsoever (e.g., Manhattan Beach) or only charge a nominal fee in return for the benefits they are providing the AVP. It is very difficult for the AVP to bring an event to a city without this type of support. For Hermosa Beach, the AVP will reimburse the City for all out-of-pocket expenses associated with the event but requests that the City waive the fees described above. VIP Hospitality In order for the AVP to put on this free event for the citizens of Hermosa Beach, We must rely exclusively upon sponsors to shoulder the significant financial cost of the event. We are competing with other professional sports (golf, tennis, NBA, NFL, etc.) for these sponsorship dollars and we must be able to offer our sponsors the similar hospitality amenities as other major sports. A first-class VIP area allows our sponsors to entertain their key customers and guests in the same fashion as at a Dodger game, Lakers game, tennis tournament or golf tournament. A competitive first-class VIP area includes excellent seating, food, and sponsors products in the hospitality area. The AVP is requesting that alcohol service (beer • • and wine only) be permitted exclusively in the elevated VIP tent above the north center court bleacher. Such VIP alcohol service would be in a relatively remote area of the event (within the tented area only), restricted to event VIPs only and would be implemented with the following controls: • All eligible VIP's must have a stamp or wristband identifying them as 21 years of age or older. • - The area will be contained within the elevated tent structure. • No alcoholic beverages will be allowed to be taken outside the designated VIP area. • No alcoholic beverages from outside of the VIP area may be brought into the area. • Signs will be posted at the entrance/exit and within the VIP perimeter that state "NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES BEYOND THIS POINT". • Additional educational signage such as "Don't Drink and Drive" will be posted in the VIP area. • The alcohol will be served in plastic cups (16 fluid ounces maximum) and will not be visible to the public. • A minimum of three identifiable security guards will be positioned in the VIP area to monitor all activity. A security plan for the VIP area must be approved by the City of Hermosa Beach. The security company must have a California Guard Card through Consumer affairs. • All alcoholic beverage servers must have completed a responsible beverage service course through the ABC. Such VIP alcohol service would allow the Hermosa Open VIP's to enjoy the tournament in a controlled environment in a manner similar to that provided them at other major sporting events. The AVP asks the City to approve alcohol service in the elevated VIP hospitality area only as described above. Food and Drink Sales on the Beach In order for AVP events to be financially viable, it is necessary that the event have the same type of revenue streams available to other sporting events. One of the important revenue streams is concessions. Not only does this help make the event financially viable, but it is also provides a very important amenity to the fans and helps them maximize both their experience and their perception of the event. Virtually every city that the AVP goes to allows the AVP to sell concessions at the event. As a special accommodation to the City of Hermosa Beach in order to protect the interests of the Hermosa Beach business community, the AVP proposes that the AVP will only contract with Hermosa Beach business to handle food and beverage sales at the event. The AVP understands that approval by the City of Hermosa Beach of this concept would be subject to the approval of the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce. • • • Marketing Support As part of our agreements with host cities, the host cities agree to provide a certain amount of marketing support for the event. Typically, host cities agree to conduct certain mutually approved marketing and promotion activities for the event such as posting of flyers and posters, placement on city website, running of highlight and promotional tape on public service announcement channel, etc.). We would request that the City will provide the same type of support for our event. Lisa, we are very excited about the possibility of holding an annual "Grand Slam" event in Hermosa Beach. The AVP Looks forward to bringing the best in volleyball competition and event production to Hermosa Beach year after year while building a tradition and legacy that will stand the test of time.

Jaakola Vince Balvin Roy Bronold AVP Operations Meeting Minutes February 25, 2004, 10:00 a.m. Community Center, Room 4 AVP Representative Community Resources Dept. Supervisor Hermosa Beach Fire Dept. Hermosa Beach Fire Dept. Public Works Director Public Works Superintendent Hermosa Beach Police Dept., Operations Parking Enforcement Community Development The meeting began with introduction of staff to Matt Gage. Lisa Lynn stated that our primary reason for this meeting today is to discuss operational components of the AVP event and discuss AVP intent to appeal staff recommendation of adherence to City ordinances. After a brief overview by Matt Gage, each City department will go over any questions or concerns they might have and answers questions from Mr. Gage. Matt Gage presented an action plan and gave a brief overview of the AVP Hermosa Open which will be a four-day event, Thursday through Sunday, July 24 — 27, 2004. Set-up would begin Monday of that week and continue over three days and probably carry over into Thursday. Thursday will be for amateur qualifiers with the pro event running Friday through Sunday with NBC televising Saturday and Sunday. Breakdown will begin after the last event. Bleacher breakdown; however, will probably begin on Monday and continue through Tuesday. Fire Department Aaron Marks, Fire, had concerns regarding the bleachers. Matt Gage stated that he was still bidding it out. In the past they have used Brown United and there are five or six different companies bidding now. Roy Bronold, Planning, suggested to Matt Gage that we [the City] come out and take a look at what kind of bleachers the perspective company would provide for him. This would help to let him know what's safe and what's not acceptable by us. I le stated that last year we spent a lot of City labor and time going out to keep re -inspecting the bleachers and trying to patch them up. It became a kind of a tidal wave to try and stay in front of and we'd like to prevent this. Matt Gage stated that the intention is to use metal bleachers and he is negotiating with the company that did the Beach Bash last year and will ask about all metal bleachers when he talks to then. Attachment E • • Roy Bronold replied that they're really good people but we were concerned with some minor safety and clean up issues. Lisa questioned how the VIP Section is going to be sectioned off. Is it similar to IMG's set-up, is it the two-tiered VIP section? Crowd control is always a problem in this area. Matt Gage said that it's basically the same as the Manhattan Beach Open. It goes straight from the bleachers on to the VIP area and back, so they're attached. There is stairway access from the rear, up into the VIP area and its height is 26'. Lisa expressed concern regarding security, because the Manhattan Open VIP section was separated by others with only a dangling rope. Aaron Marks stated that occupancy load to be enforced. For the bleachers we have an upside and downside for flow of pedestrian traffic which works great for large crowds. Security guards will be needed to enforce this on each stairway. This is a major issue and works great with good signage. All enclosed tents, will also have an occupancy load. Aaron then questioned the two stages shown on the event plan. Matt Gage said that the second stage is only a PR stage, 4 feet high. Aaron told him that if it is shorter than 4', no railings are required. The big stage is not a viewing platform; it is for talent, MCs, and the players only. No friends or family, etc are permitted. Aaron questioned the use of walkways. Matt explained that depending on the company they use, the walkways are usually 4X8 plywood, all nicely connected. Basically they help control the flow around the site so people actually know which way they're going and they can see how to get from one place to the other. Even though. the railings only 4' wide, people actually use it and it is also wheelchair accessible. Aaron told Matt that he, along with Roy and the event's safety engineer, will walk on them, the same as the bleachers to ensure public safety. The event inflatables, anything that's been tied down into the sand with stakes, have to be barricaded somehow. The spikes cannot be left standing alone in the sand. Aaron questioned the use of jumbo tron videos. Matt said that they were talking about it but haven't got any at present and when and if they do it may be part of the stage ensemble. Aaron brought up the requirements if they get approval for food on the beach. They will be responsible to follow the same rules as the vendors. If they are having food, they need to have flooring and each vendor must have their own fire extinguisher with up-to-date service. Aaron inquired as to placement of their generators. He stated that last year IMG put theirs on the flat level of the pier, but that won't necessarily be available this year pending construction. He also said that the TV truck might be a problem given the area shown on the action plan. • • Matt said that location indicated on the map was there just to show you their equipment and there are other options; it's not definite. Rick Morgan, Public Works, talked about the demo work on the Pier head stating that the lifeguard stand will also be under construction along with the bathroom area. Aaron suggested putting the generators behind the construction fences. I -Ie also stated that all cables have to be buried sufficiently. Where they go over concrete or pavement and where the publichas access to them, it has to have OSHA approved bridges (plastic coverings). Roy told Matt that he will have to pull permits (no fee) to inspect cables, generators, lighting and underground lines, connections, groundings, etc. He needs to have a plan showing where the generators are going, where grounding stakes are going, and any festive lighting etc. in order to send inspectors out for approval. Aaron asked when Matt would like inspections to begin and they agreed on 7:30 — 8:00 starting Thursday. Matt understood that once the venue is built there is an inspection every morning before opening. Lisa stated if there are vendors on Thursday, we need to do an interdepartmental inspection on Wednesday afternoon. The regular morning inspection happens each day thereafter before the venue opens. Security guards must man each entrance until sign -off by City fire engineer and AVP safety officer occurs. Matt stated that his security staff is always there 11/2 hours before the start of the event. Aaron spoke regarding the cameras being used during the event. Matt stated that set up might be Friday evening but more likely Saturday morning. Aaron told Matt that no one can be on the platforms (T's) for the cameras. We also need to know where still photographers are going to be. The bleachers need to have a restricted area that cannot be accessed from underneath and mesh netting is needed for this. Aaron spoke as if Matt got everything approved. If so, we require two Field Safety Officers and two paramedics. They provide all public medical attention and crowd control in the aspect that they let security know that they need to clear the aisles, stairs, etc. They are not going to clear people; security is to do that. There should be nobody in the aisles and no one sitting on the rails. Pubic Works Mike Flaherty gave Matt a rundown on the situation regarding banners and light pole ads. Cal Trans own the poles on PCH and will not allow any commercial banners. We have several sites around the city that might be used by AVP. There are two locations that need to have the banners no bigger than 3 X 30 and these can be made out of vinyl. The other locations can accommodate 4 X 40 but they need to be made out of mesh material. Our banner requests for this year are numerous so decisions need to be made quickly. • • Mike told Matt that cleanup for the event should be a professional cleanup company that will take care of everything from the beginning to the end of this operation which includes beach cleanup, strand cleanup, and surrounding area cleanup. They need some kind of equipment for parking lot cleanup (power sweeper). Volleyball removal and replacement is very important. Mike would like the name of the person hired and what he is going to do with the poles and nets when he puts them back. We have to make sure he puts them back in the same location. The lifeguards have requested that we not put them in certain spots, and they have to be certain distances from the wall. Lisa stated that we also need to know where the poles and nets are going to be stored because sometimes they are just left underneath the pier. She recommended utilizing the lifeguards locked storage area at the Pier Head. She suggested Matt Gage contact Bill Sigler regarding court removal services. Mike told Matt that we need a traffic plan that also involves the Strand. There needs to be a plan illustrating what they do to come on the Strand, how they shut off the pedestrian flow, and we're suggesting that the plan show closure of the Strand from 14th to Pier Avenue while off loading and on loading. They're going to have to have someone to man the barricades and prevent people from getting inside those off loaded vehicles and so forth. The traffic control plan also includes usage of Lot B. We want to make sure that whatever vehicles are coming in on that side, we have the right routes to get there. The TV truck can't be on the west side of the Strand. The Beach Hotel is the best bet. They're going to have to fly the cables from 13th Street. NBC will come in Saturday morning and leave Sunday, late afternoon. AVP is responsible for steam cleaning with an estimated $2,000 cost for Public Works. All other cleanup costs belong to AVP and they are to get their own clean up companies. Aaron was concerned about valet parking. Lisa has addressed this issue with the AVP and they have agreed to valet parking in Lot B only. Mike told Matt that he needs a traffic plan by a certified traffic engineer that includes 1) pedestrian affairs, 2) streets coming off Hermosa, 3) what type of barricades to be used, and 4) the type of closures for bicycles and pedestrians during the movement of vehicles on the strand. Police Lt Jaakola stated his major concerns as: 1) Security Guards —They are to be unarmed at all times. 2) Modeling Contest — There will absolutely not be a modeling contest. This will not be tolerated by Police. • • 3) Alcohol (if ordinance is turned over) — No alcohol before noon and then only beer and wine. There is to be no over serving whatsoever. This is to be closely monitored by security people. 4) Moving Equipment Across the Strand — There must be some kind of flagman there absolutely all the time. 5) Two officers per day on Thursday and Friday, and four on Saturday & Sunday. Matt stated that Thursday is only a qualifier, amateurs and their families, nobody really goes. The VIP area would not be open at this time. The special event area will still be under construction but there might be vendors in the afternoon. Lisa reminded Matt that the area needs to be either open or closed. There is no gray area here. There cannot be construction and vendors open for business at the same time. If construction is still happening on Thursday, the Center Court area and vendors may not be open for spectators. Construction areas must be adequately fenced off. Jaakola stated that he could do with no officers on Thursday if it is basically going to be empty. Lisa spoke to the fact that the kids are on vacation. This is a busy time of year, and once word gets out, people flock to the beach for "freebies". Jaakola said that a fence should be surrounding the construction area. Parking Enforcement Vince spoke to the fact that when parking the vehicles in Lot B on Sunday evening there should be a fence around it. Flaherty told Matt that they could use the City yard if needed. Matt stated that they have a warehouse in Gardena and they will be coming from there. Vince said to post no parking signs (Lot B) a couple of days before the event and then repost as necessary. Lisa brought up the fact that the Sunset Concerts will be happening that Sunday evening and will be using Lot B. It will be easier for AVP to load -in on Monday morning. There will be shuttle service from Mira Costa to 14th Street (include this in traffic plan). A 24 -passenger vehicle is best as a shuttle. The barricades for bicycles need to be ready for use and AVP would keep barricades in their compound and responsible for putting them out each morning. Lisa reminded Matt that there may not e any variance to the shuttle bus route. Buses are permitted on Aviation, PCH, Pier and Hermosa Avenue only. Residents are intolerant to any deviation from this plan. Community Development Roy brought up the issues of disability access stating that "temporary events" are a hot topic and there are new requirements, including sight facilitation, is a factor. They have to be completely accessible, they have to have a perfect line of sight without anyone being able to stand up and block their views from any locations. Lisa mentioned the fact that we • • have two sand wheel chairs, but Roy stated it was stricter than that. There needs to be adequate signage for parking. In the event, you have to be sure to protect the handicap spots that are directly kept open for thein, no cameras, nothing being able to be placed in those areas. Roy stated he would fax all the information to each department. He also stated that he needs a bleacher plan, something from the fabricator, or supplier stating stair details, stability engineering, etc. on your specs and an engineering plan. 1 -le will also send this additional information to all departments. The meeting concluded at 11:45 am • Page l of l Lisa Lynn From: Carla Merriman [Carla@hbchamber.net] Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2004 4:16 PM To: Steve Cc: Lisa Lynn Subject: AVP Request for Food and Vendors on the Beach I've checked with our Executive Committee, and the chamber does not support the AVP having food served and merchandise sold on the beach during their event. The Chamber supports events that bring business into our town's restaurants and shops. The AVP, according to Dave Williams, wants to keep the audience out on the beach so that NBC considers the event well attended. This strategy is contrary to bringing business to our merchants. I have put in a call to tell Dave our decision. If the AVP wants to do an event without food and retail on the beach, the Chamber will support them. Dave mentioned that he would ask Henesseys to do the food with whatever other restaurants want to participate, but our establishments are not set up for that kind of carry -out and are not staffed to do this. The bottom line is that events are good for Hermosa when Hermosa businesses reap a profit. We believe that granting the AVP's request would also set a dangerous precident and other events might want to do the same thing. Do you need anything formal from us? Should we go to the Parks and Rec meeting or to Council?

Lance Jaakola Re: AVP Model Search Lisa, This is a follow up memo to the meeting of 2-25-04 regarding the AVP Hermosa Open. The Hermosa Beach Police Department strongly opposes the "Model Search" contest proposed by AVP officials. In years past, these beauty contests involving bikini clad women on a stage have contributed to violent confrontations between police and intoxicated spectators. It has been my experience that contests such as this provoke inappropriate and disruptive behavior from groups of young men who may not even be interested in the AVP event. This then causes police officers to have to deal with these unruly subjects, leading to possible conflicts. I know that the current AVP leadership has stated that the event would be run in a classy, professional manner. But experience has shown me that despite the best intentions of the organizer some of our rowdier local subjects could easily use a contest like this as an excuse to disrupt the event and ruin it for spectators who are genuinely interested in it. Again, the Hermosa Beach Police Department is strongly opposed to the "Model Search" contest at the AVP. Respectfully submitted, Lt.

INITIATED BY THE CITY COUNCIL Recommendations: To amend the City's Certified Coastal Land Use Plan regarding downtown parking policies, as submitted to and amended by the Coastal Commission by adopting the attached resolution. a oyt Qtt i Y}1 t tiD � w C rt ru([ it -ti To eint oduce the attached ordinance to amend Chapter 17.44 of the Zoning Ordinance. Background:* At the meeting of March 25, 2003, the City Council authorized submittal of the subject L.U.P. amendment to the Coastal Commission. The Council also reviewed the proposed text amendment for adoption, as recommended by the Planning Commission, and introduced an ordinance to amend Chapter 17.44 of the Zoning Ordinance. The amendments eliminate existing obsolete exceptions for downtown parking, and are intended to better balance parking requirements in the downtown particularly for restaurants that have their heaviest parking demand in the evening. This is achieved by providing a slight reduction in the parking requirement for retail, general office, and medical office uses, and increasing the parking requirement for restaurants that replace existing retail or office uses. The Coastal L.U.P. amendment was submitted to the Coastal Commission in October of 2003, and considered by the Coastal Commission on January 15, 2004 (LUPA 02-3). Based on the recommendation of the Coastal Commission staff, the Coastal Commission approved the City's requested amendments with modifications. Analysis: The City must accept and agree to the modifications of the Coastal Commission before the L.U.P. amendments can become effective. The modifications are shown in the attached document from the Coastal Commission indicated by a double pnderlipq. City staff reviewed these changes with the Coastal Commission staff prior to the final action by the Coastal Commission, and are summarized as follows: • The reduced parking requirement for retail and office uses shall remain in effect for a limit of 3 years from the date of execution of the permit. ■ If the City wishes to continue the reduced parking requirement beyond three years, a new amendment must be filed, including parking study for the downtown addressing cumulative public parking impacts. t ■ The Executive Director of the Coastal Commission may approve a one-year extension if fewer than 15,000 square feet of retail or office has been approved with the reduced parking requirement. • Modified language regarding the parking in -lieu fee program, requiring the City to provide an annual accounting of the number of required parking spaces allowed with an in -lieu fee. These modifications have no effect on the Council approval language of the proposed text amendments to the Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 17.44, except that the effective period for the amendments regarding the reduced parking requirement has been set at a three year limitation with a possible one year extension.

FURNBERG, ATTY PAGE 01 0 s April 2, 2004 The Members co the City Council City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Re. Opposition to Parking Permits on Second St. Dear Council Members: We are opposed to parking permits on Second Street. The Hermosa Beach parking permit policy only allows for one transferable parking permit per home. This would be a hardship to the residents when they would like to have more than one guest visit them in the evening. It would cause the second and third guests to walk a couple of blocks or risk getting ticketed if they accidentally park on Second Street The Pitcher House should be forced to address their problems by providing sufficient bouncers and not serving persons who seem to have consumed over the legal limit, rather than penalize the surrounding residents with permit parking: Also, the people who live closer to Prospect would not derive any benefit from permit parking since Pitcher House patrons do not park that far up the street. So, permit parking would be especially unfair to them. Lastly, permit parking on Second St would unjustly cause more Pitcher House patrons to park on First and Third Street. Under Hermosa Beach Code Section 10.36.060, this issue of parking permits is premature. This code section requires that the applicants file a formal application with a petition signed by 66% of homes on the street, and pay all fees, including noticing fees. Only then can it be scheduled for a public hearing. None of the above has occurred at this time. We all do agree that better signage is needed on our street to prevent persons from driving the wrong way up the street Also, we would like to see more police patrol during the closing hours of the Pitcher House. Thank you for your consideration.

The fact that some people on Second Street ha%e tut i cc: their garages into storage or other uses contributes to the parking pmhlem. Sonic 4wusc. who have garages do not have driveways to park in and park their cars on the sidcs�aS� which makes walking on the sidewalk a hazardous situation. Of course, they park on rhe sidewalk because there is not adequate parking on the curb. All in all, permits do not seem the appropriate solution to the problem. The Pitcher House has been allowed to operate for years without providing adequate parking and people who live nearby are adversely effected as a result. I empathize with resident living close to Pacific Coast Highway who have to contend with the various problem s that the Pitcher House presents. Sincerely, �lY4n iW 1U• ,O ta- Eleanor M.

Review and discuss the issues presented in this report in considering whether or not to establish a residential parking permit program on 2nd Street If Council considers the establishment of such a program, provide direction to Staff on how to proceed. Staff would return at a later date with an operational plan on implementation. OR 2. Receive and file this report. BACKGROUND At the direction of council, staff was directed to review the feasibility of a residential parking permit program for 2nd Street above the Pacific Coast Highway (800-1200 blocks) and perhaps other neighborhoods in the City outside of the coastal zone. Currently, residents living in the coastal zone which is west of Loma Drive in the south part of the City and west of Monterey Blvd. and Momingside Drive in the north part of the City are eligible to purchase residential parking permits to park in zones normally restricted to one hour parking from May 15 through September 15 each year. This permit also allows parking at all yellow pole meters (not silver pole) generally found along Hermosa Avenue. Staff has obtained information about various residential parking permit programs. The Cities of Long Beach, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Redondo Beach and Torrance all have residential parking permit program of various sizes. All of these cities have adopted ordinances regulating the process establishing preferential parking permit zones. Generally, the procedures adopted by these various cities are very similar to one another. If a neighborhood desires to establish a parking permit zone, a petition containing the names of either two thirds or 75% of the residents of the affected neighborhood is presented to the City for consideration. There is an analysis done of the permit zone as to the need and viability of establishing a permit zone in that neighborhood. There are a number of established guidelines that are utilized to evaluate the request for a parking permit zone. These include evaluating the overall demand for parking in the Impacted area, the daily numbers of resident vehicles versus non-resident vehicles parked in the zone, the potential for displaced vehicles impacting adjacent residential streets, the location of the zone in relation to commercial zones or main arterial streets, etc. This evaluation is generally conducted by a traffic engineer or a commission. A recommendation regarding the establishment of the permit zone is submitted to the City Council for a public hearing. The City of Long Beach appears to have approximately 25 permit zones and the most comprehensive ordinance on establishing parking permit zones. A copy of the Long Beach ordinance is attached for reference. • • ANALYSIS Staff has evaluated the feasibility of initiating such a parking permit plan in Hermosa Beach. The following issues and concems were identified. The permits for such a program would have to be very different in style and color than those currently Issued to residents that park in the coastal zone of the City. Such a permit would only be valid for the specific parking district intended and could not be used in any other part of the City. There is the possibility that this program could become very popular and that a number of neighborhoods in the City might want to initiate requests for new residential parking zones. For example, the City of Beverly Hills has 71 preferential parking zones in a city of 5.7 square miles. If a number of these new districts were created, there would be an expectation that the City enforce these special parking zones. If this were to occur, there would be a greater demand upon the existing staff of parking enforcement officers. There are 9 parking enforcement officers that also handle animal control calls. Last year (2003), this group of officers wrote 46,800 parking citations. They handled 2570 parking calls for service and 831 animal control calls for service The number of citations issued generated more than one million dollars in revenue to the City. Despite these accomplishments, our parking officers are spread thin in comparison to the general parking enforcement demands around the City. Our personnel direct their efforts to those areas of the City that generate the most citations. Needless to say, the City could hire additional parking enforcement officers to write more citations because there is plenty of work for them to do. However, the City has over the past several years tried to strike a balance between proper enforcement and over enforcement. For example, ten years ago it was not uncommon for officers to write in excess of 60,000 citations on an annual basis. As a result, staff dealt with a larger number of complaints and appeals of parking citations at that time. I continue to receive calls from citizens demanding stricter and greater enforcement of various parking regulations. In the coastal zone alone, our officers wrote a total of 3300 citations during the year 2003. However, I still have received complaints that our officers were not enforcing enough. In the event that residential parking permit zones were to become popular, it would place a greater demand upon our parking officers to monitor these new zones. This would take our parking officers away from more productive activities, as they would have to spend time monitoring these neighborhoods for violations. This would only come about if a number of new residential parking districts were created. Staff would have to monitor such developments and if needed, would request the hiring of additional parking personnel to meet these new service demands. If a residential parking permit program became popular, requests to establish such zones would increase the workload of the City Council docket as well as public works and police department staff. It is likely as illustrated in the Long Beach example, staff would have to conduct an analysis and review regarding the viability of such a request. The City Council would have to consider each request with periodic reviews. The City Council would have to evaluate the merits of each request with the potential for conflicts between residents of the proposed parking permit zone. There could also be conflicts between one neighborhood desiring a permit zone and an adjacent neighborhood that might be negatively impacted by the creation of such a zone. The dynamics of enforcement of these new parking permit zones should be considered. It is highly likely that not all of the residents in a parking permit zone will purchase or maintain a visible parking permit. Not all of the residents will support a permitted parking zone even if a • • majority is obtained. Residential streets not currently regulated by time limits would now be subject to time limits. Our parking officers would undoubtedly cite local residents and guests of local residents resulting in additional complaints and appeals. Staff would deal with the issues of lost and stolen permits, permits given to non-residents The Council will also need to consider the costs involved in the design and purchase of new permits and the signage required for a residential parking permit zone. Residents in such a zone would have to purchase an annual parking permit as well. If adopted, it is uncertain as to how popular a residential parking permit zone may become. If a number of residential parking zones were to be established, staff would need to recommend that additional parking enforcement personnel be hired at that time to meet the anticipated enforcement demands of such a program.

TOP;, A 10.32.010 Purpose. This chapter is enacted pursuant to authority granted by sections 22507 and 22507.5 of the Vehicle Code to alleviate serious problems in certain residential areas of the city due, in part, to the misuse of available off street parking, the parking of motor vehicles on streets therein by nonresidents thereof for extended periods of time, and the ignoring of public transit alternatives to automobile travel available to said nonresidents, resulting in neighborhood decline in said areas by reason of traffic congestion, noise, air pollution, traffic hazards, and inability of residents therein to park their motor vehicles near their residences.

The city traffic engineer shall provide petition forms for preferential parking districts. B. Designation. 1. Proceedings for designating a preferential parking district may be initiated by petition containing the signatures of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the residents of all units of occupancy fronting curbs proposed to be included in the district. The petition shall indicate and set forth the positive desire of all signators for preferential parking privileges and their willingness to assume all associated administrative and enforcement costs, by affixing their signature, printed name, and address to the petition calling for the creation of a district. The petition shall be distributed and presented to the city council by advocates of such district's creation. 2. The city council shall set a place for a public hearing on the proposed district. The city clerk shall mail notice of the hearing at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing to all property owners, residents and commercial occupants within the proposed district and within four hundred feet (400') of the boundaries of such district, measured from the outer edges of the rights-of-way constituting the outer district boundaries. C. Following the receipt of the petition, and following the public hearing, the city council shall determine if the district is to be designated for preferential parking. That determination shall be based upon, but not limited to, substantial compliance with the following guidelines: 1. High demand. More than seventy five percent (75%) of on street spaces are occupied during period proposed for parking restriction or prohibition. In cases where a time limit parking restriction or parking prohibition is already in place, the city traffic engineer shall use reasonable judgment as to whether the demand criteria would likely be met without the restriction or prohibition; and 2. Self-contained area. The district, alone or in combination with other existing or potential preferential parking districts, constitutes a reasonably self-contained area of parking demand .and supply. The city traffic engineer shall make the determination of a reasonably self-contained area, utilizing boundaries such as major streets, nonresidential land uses, edges of higher or lower density residential areas, water bodies and other natural features; and utilizing surveys of existing conditions to determine extent of area impacted by nonresident parking. The city traffic engineer shall designate each such self- contained preferential parking district with a unique letter or combination of letters, which shall be the official designation of said district. The purpose of this designation process is to ensure that proposed preferential parking districts are of sufficient size as to reasonably encompass the problem area and to offer sufficient on street parking spaces to provide reasonable opportunity for residents to obtain parking. 3. If the district is proposed solely for daytime preferential parking, the following ..-L,:.....1...1./1L....../•:11e 111b.1.ontar_ 1 (1_11 htrn 1/7917004 Chapter -10-32 • • guidelines shall apply: Page 3 of 9 Nonresidential users. More than fifty percent (50%) of vehicles parked at curbside during the period proposed for parking restriction or prohibition are owned by nonresidents of the district. In cases where a time limit parking restriction or prohibition is already in place, the city traffic engineer shall use reasonable judgment as to whether the demand criteria would likely be met without the restriction or prohibition. 4. Such additional criteria may be applied as the city council may deem and identify as reasonably related to the designation of such districts. D. 1. The city council may terminate a preferential parking district upon receipt of a petition calling for such termination which has been received and transmitted by the city clerk, and contains signatures and the corresponding printed name and address representing a majority (50 percent plus 1) of the dwelling units in the district. The city council may also terminate such district, without petition, based upon, but not limited to, any changes in the criteria upon which the original designation was based. 2. The city traffic engineer shall annually review the status of each preferential parking district formed under this chapter 10.32, and if the city traffic engineer determines that a substantial number of eligible persons within the district have failed to apply for and receive preferential parking permits, the engineer may recommend termination of district designation to the city council.

Also, the people who live closer to Prospect would not derive any benefit from permit parking since Pitcher House patrons do not park that far up the street So, permit parking would be especially unfair to them. Lastly, permit parking on Second St. would unjustly cause more Pitcher House patrons to park on First and Third Street. Under Hermosa Beach Code Section 10.36.060, this issue of parking permits is premature. This code section requires that the applicants file a formal application with a petition signed by 66% of homes on the street, and pay all fees, including noticing fees. Only then can it be scheduled for a public hearing. None of the above has occurred at this time. We all do agree that better signage is needed on our street to prevent persons from driving the wrong way up the street. Also, we would like to see more police patrol during the closing hours of the Pitcher House. Thank you for your consideration.

California Water Service Company is requesting that you consider sending this letter on behalf of our tax paying customers. It is the company's position that our customers shouldn't be excluded from the benefit of this funding source because they are served by a regulated utility. Regulated water utilities cannot "profit" from any bond funding they may receive. We want our customers to be able to reap the same benefits as customers served by municipal utilities throughout the state. would fike to ask you to have the Mayor sign and send a letter to the Governor in support of our request for improvements that benefit our customers in your city. Your assistance with this matter would be greatly appreciated. I would also appreciate a copy of any letter that the Mayor is willing to send to the Govemor for our legislative affairs contact. Thank you. Sincerely, Terry S.

There is absolutely no difference between the services our water utility provides to our public and the services public agency water retailers provide to the public they serve. There is no legal or policy basis for excluding water utilities from competing for Proposition 50 bond funding: • Water utilities are accountable to the public through regulation by the Califomia Public Utilities Commission; and • Water utilities cannot "profit" from any bond funding they may receive; to the contrary, only utility ratepayers — our constituents — will lose if the utilities are precluded from competing for bond funding. If bond money is not available, utility customers will have to pay for needed capital just as public agency water customers would have to do to make necessary investments. The needs of our community are no different than others throughout California; we are concerned about water quality and reliability and how we will find the money to pay for aging infrastructure. This was the promise of Proposition 50. Our voters — and the other 20% of the state served by regulated water utilities — were never told that their neighborhood water provider would not be allowed to compete for Proposition 50 bond funding; to the contrary, the ballot arguments state that the bond will help "provide every Califomia family a safe, reliable supply of clean drinking water..." and that the bond will "ensure safe drinking water for all Californians." This is of particular importance to the many areas water utilities serve that are economically disadvantaged communities. No matter what treatment is afforded other "private water companies" in the interpretation and application of this bond measure, we ask that you support the regulated water utilities in seeking equal treatment for their ratepayers under Proposition 50 and implementing legislation.
