Use of any revenue derived by the City from the site shall be limited first to reduce any bonded indebtedness resulting from the enactment of Community Facilities District No. 1, which district would acquire the South School site, the Seaview Parkette, and the railroad right-of-way; and, second, when the bonded indebtedness is paid, for the acquisition, maintenance and improvement of available excess school or other properties for open space and parkland purposes. The site could not be larger than one acre in size and no wells drilled from the site could be bottomed within the tidelands. The revenue from any such wells, then, would not be subject to the restrictions on the use of tidelands funds. The proposed exceptions to the ban on oil wells are presented as two ballot measures to allow the voter to act on them separately. Both may pass, both may fail, or one or the other may pass or fail. 7-12-84 July 30, 1984 City Council Meeting July 30, 1984 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council BALLOT ARGUMENTS SPECIAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION b NOVEMBER 6, 1984 0 \ 3 SJR' Recommendation: Decide if you all wish to sign the ballot arguments (Oil drilling - Maintenance Yard, Political Activities of Employees, Mello -Roos, Oil drilling - South School Site - with School Board.)

Kathleen Reviczky, City(71/ei4k CONCUR: Alana Mastrian, Assistant City Manager O I L �' (>/"'I 5 st l This measure allows one oil well,all revenues from which would go first toward debt retirement for the Mello -Roos District and secondly, after all debt is retired, toward maintenance of �a The City Council is asking you to vote for a measure that will provide a method to help pay the debt service costs to acquire 25 acres of land for permanent open space. Voting in favor of this measure will reduce the amount required (from the taxpayers through property taxes) to buy the railroad right-of-way, the South School site, and Seaview Parkette. If we want to insure that these lands will always remain as permanent undeveloped open space and parklands, the City will have to own them. If the City doesn't own them, it has to allow the owners some development. When those lands are developed they will no longer be the public open space and parklands we want and need.

This program is based upon the necessary elements to be covered by such a study; identified in our cor- respondence of June 8, 1984. The purpose of preparing a Policy Plan is essentially two -fold: to establish development and design criteria which will regulate development in the Downtown Area in the immediate future; and, to establish a strategic action program which the City may then use to leverage funds for improvements (public and private) to the Downtown Area. A singularly -important product of the Policy Plan will be preparation of a logical sequence of improvements, and their prioritization. Typically, cities use these programs to procure additional "outside" funding as well as to establish incentives for private investment. Funds for improvements such as envisioned for the Downtown Area are available through the State Coastal Conservancy. While there is con- siderable competition for available monies, the interests of the City in its improvements are very similar to those of the Conservancy in its Urban Waterfronts Program. A number of coastal communities today are receiving funding for precisely what Hermosa Beach wishes to accomplish.

Its products will outline the actions the City determines necessary for improving the Downtown. These subsequent actions, and the accompanying detailed analyses/plans may then be implemented by the continued efforts of the City in cooperation with other agencies, property owners and residents and the investment community. Should you have any questions or comments on the attached Work Program please do not hesitate to call. We look forward to refining it with you and to initiating work in the very near future. As previously mentioned, we would see delivery of the draft Policy Plan and all related documentation to the City within approximately four weeks.

RESOLUTION OF INTENTION TO CREATE A CITY-WIDE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT PURSUANT TO THE MELLO-ROOS ACT OF 1982. Letter from Pamela S. Swift to Douglas W. Ayres, MSI, dated June 27, 1984. Supplemental information Memorandum from City Manager Gregory T. Meyer dated July 5, 1984. City Manager Meyer presented the staff report. Councilman DeBellis questioned the $145 per dwelling unit for 30 years, this being a higher figure that originally discussed. Mr. Meyer stated that this figure assumes no additional income to affect the debt. Mr. Roy Stephenson of Berryman & Stephenson, Inc, assessment engineer, answered questions of staff and Council regarding the tax per dwelling unit. He stated that the $145 was the maximum rate but that the actual rate would be approximately $139 per dwelling unit. This number would be firmed up prior to the public hearing. 1 Minutes 7-5-84 lu- RESOLUTION OF INTENTION - COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT (continued Mr. Meyer responded to questions of Council regarding expenses related to the issuance of the bonds. He stated that approximately $500,000 would be needed for issuance expense $1.5 million which would have to be set aside as debt service reserve. Both of these are figured into the $13.5 million. Mr. Stephenson advised that discounts of 15-25% could be given to multiple units if that is the pleasure of the Council. If the bond issue was apportioned equally to all residential and commercial properties, a per parcel levy per year would be $213. After lengthy Council discussion, the following actions were taken. (1) ACTION - To adopt the tax resolution stating the City's intention to establish a Community Facilities District #1, authorizing annual levy of a special tax, fixing a time and place of a public hearing and amending exhibit A to reflect a per unit residential cost of $126 plus or minus, and $.14 per square foot plus or minus for commercial as follows: Resolution No. 84-4727 entitled "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, STATING ITS INTENTION TO ESTABLISH COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 1, AUTHORIZING THE ANNUAL LEVY OF A SPECIAL TAX, FIXING THE TIME AND PLACE OF A PUBLIC HEARING." Motion DeBellis, second Mayor Brutsch AYES - DeBellis, Cioffi, Mayor Brutsch NOES - Barks ABSENT - Wood (2) FURTHER ACTION - To adopt Resolution No. 84-4728 entitled "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING ITS INTENTION TO INCUR BONDED INDEBTEDNESS IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $13,500,000 (THIRTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND) WITHIN PROPOSED COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT #1 OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, FIXING THE TIME AND PLACE OF A PUBLIC HEARING.

Amendment of Civil Service Ordinance re Political Activities City Attorney Post advised Council that this measure had already been written b. Landscaping Maintenance District This item had been tabled by previous action of the City Council. C. Hydrocarbon Recovery The staff report was presented by City Attorney Post who stated that what is to be considered by the City Council is the wording on two exceptions to the oil drilling ban - City Maintenance Yard and South School. The school site oil issue would only become operative if Mello -Roos and oil drilling at the Maintenance Yard failed. Councilman Barks stated that this was not his understanding. It was stated by a member of the audience (Karen Gale) that the oil issue is to be separate from Mello -Roos. The School District would have the mineral rights and the City would own the property. Wilma Burt stated that the law was unclear in that we have wells on the yard site and the City could modernize without a vote of the people - only extra drilling would require a vote of the people. It must be limited to site specific or the people will never approve the measure. City Clerk Reviczky reported that the final motion accepted by the School Board, pending legal opinion was as follows: "To adopt the Joint Powers purchase for $3.5 million. The City would give them a line of credit to begin their construction; the School Board would maintain the mineral rights; they would have reversion rights if the property was not used as open space, exclusing the .87 acre built-up area; that the rezoning of South School would begin immediately western .87 acre to R-3 and completed within 90 days, contingent on the failure of Mello -Roos and they amended the motion to include mineral rights on the entire site." -3- Minutes 7-5-84 HYDROCARBON RECOVERY BALLOT MEASURE (continued) Karen Gale of the Hermosa Beach School Board stated that the Board was under the impression that there would be two separate ballot measures concerning oil drilling - one for drilling at the City Maintenance Yard and one for drilling at South School. City Clerk Reviczky advised that a motion had been generated by the City Council to propose an exception to oil drilling at South School if Mello -Roos failed. Council had agreed and then the School Board had countered. City Attorney Post stated that rezoning would begin and become operative if Mello -Roos failed. He also advised that the issue of oil drilling on the South School site could be put on the ballot on behalf of the School District without Council taking a position on the issue. The School District, to put a measure on the ballot, would have to go through a petition process which could not be done in a timely fashion for the November election. Mr. Post stated that oil drilling at South School could be made contingent on the failure of Mello -Roos (drilling at the City Yard site) . After lengthy discussion, the following ordinance pertaining to amending the prohibition against oil wells was approved by Council with the addition as noted: ACTION - To adopt Ordinance No. 84-758 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH SUBMITTED TO THE VOTERS BY THE CITY COUNCIL AMENDING THE PROHIBITION AGAINST OIL WELLS TO ALLOW FOR THE PROCURE- MENT OF OIL AND GAS FROM CERTAIN CITY OWNED LANDS with the addition of the following paragraph: SECTION 1 - line 14 "A. The revenue derived by the City from this site shall be used first to reduce any bonded indebtedness resulting from the enactment of Community Facilities District Number 1, which district would acquire the South School site, the Seaview Parkette, and the railroad right- of-way; and, second the acquisition, maintenance and improvement of available excess school or other properties for open space and parkland purposes." Motion DeBellis, second Mayor Brutsch So ordered. FURTHER ACTION - To adopt Ordinance No. 84-759 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH SUBMITTED TO THE VOTERS BY THE CITY COUNCIL AMENDING THE PROHIBITION AGAINST OIL WELLS TO ALLOW FOR THE PROCUREMENT OF OIL AND GAS FROM CERTAIN LANDS OWNED BY THE HERMOSA BEACH SCHOOL DISTRICT with the addition of the following: -4- Minutes 7-5-84 HYDROCARBON RECOVERY BALLOT MEASURE (continued) Line 13 - Add: "The revenue derived by the School District from this site shall be used only for educational purposes." Motion DeBellis, second Barks. So ordered. d. Mello -Roos (discussed as item 2) ACTION - To ask two members of the School Board and three members of the City Council to write the argument in favor of the Mello -Roos ballot measure. Motion Cioffi, second Mayor Brutsch. So ordered City Manager Meyer advised Council that the language for the impartial analysis of the Mello -Roos measure would be presented to Council on July 10. Wilma Burt made a point of order requesting that Councilman Barks. in his argument in favor of the Civil Service ballot measure, refer to this measure as changing People's Ordinance NS 211. e. People's Initiative re Open Space Lands Councilman DeBellis will write the argument against this People's Initiative. (Withdrawn by Councilman DeBellis.) Councilman DeBellis asked for a reconsideration of agenda item #1 - South Bay Union High School District Request for Funds. There being no opposition the following actions were taken. PROPOSED ACTION - To award a grant of $22,000 to South Bay Union High School District to be repaid in one year at an interest rate of 100. Motion DeBellis SUBSTITUTE ACTION - To agree in concept to South Bay Union High School District's grant of $22,000, the City Manager to return with further details. Motion Barks, second DeBellis AYES - Barks, DeBellis NOES - Cioffi, Mayor Brutsch Motion fails Prior to the vote on the above proposed substitute action, lengthy discussion ensued. City Manager Meyer advised that repayment cannot be demanded. Other devices are available to School Districts such as fund raisers in the community by non-profit groups. City Manager Meyer was requested to contact the Superintendent of the South Bay Union High School District and share with him the concerns of various Councilmembers and also consider in his final recommendation to Council a possible interest rate. Wilma Burt questioned the School District asking for $100,000, not $190,000, the repayment question and felt that the City should not bail out the District. -5- Minutes 7-5-84 t8 -S -L SG-.nUTW -W-d 00:9 qp uozssag @ATgnoaxS pasoTD P Aq papaooad '0£:L go anon au4 4p P86T 'OT ATnr 'Appsans uo pTau aq oq buzqaaW aPTnbag P oq •W -d OZ:6 go anon auq qp t86T 'S ATnr uo pauanoEPP sPm uoPag Psouiaag 90 AgT3 auq 90 TzounOD AgTD auq 90 buz40aW aPTnbag pauanOEPV auk.

I was assigned the following cases by crimes: 1- Pipe bomb explsion investigation -070484 84-2433 5- misdemeanor assault investigations 20- Auto theft investigations _ 4- Annoying/Threatening phone call investigations 2- Felony Assault investigations 5- Robbery Investigations 1- Kidnapping Investigation I was called out on 073084 at 0200 hours regarding an Officer Involved Shooting incident involving one of the robbery cases(84-2817). Felony charges of robbery, grand theft auto, assualt with a deadly weapon and assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer were filed againts the driver of the vehicle Kennard E. Beard of Redondo Beach. The suspect who was shot by a Hermosa Officer recovered and has been discharged from the hospital. The District Attorneys office rejected the case against him. The juvenile in the car was released to his parents and no charges were filed against him due to insufficient evidence. I investigated a pipe bomb explosion at 8th and Monterey which damaged 5 vehicles and three builsings. The sewer also had to be repaired by our city yard. We received information through a law enforcement officer regarding possible suspect information. A picture was obtained of the named suspect and a photo line-up was shown to the witness_ The witness was unable to pick out the possible suspect. The witness saw possible suspects leaving the area in a small red compact vehicle possibly a Plymouth.Horizon or a Chevy Chevette. He also heard one suspect say that it was not funny anymore and then the 2 males and 1 female left the area. The witness saw the suspects from the side and it was dark. The witness told me he would have trouble identifying a suspect, but would cooperate anyway he could. No current suspects are being investigated. Det Tom Thompson 077 DET C.V. GRIFFITTS #094, July 1984 Statistics CURRENT CASES: DR# 84-2832 I am currently investigating a suspected child sexual abuse that has apparently occurred over the last few months in the City of Hermosa Beach. The victim, a.5 year old girl states that the boyfriend of her mother molested her while under the influence of narcotics. NOTE: Reported cases of child abuse appears to be lower this month. UPDATE ON CASES: DR# 84-2310 The in home day care suspected child molest investiga- tion is continuing. The child has completed a physical exam with no signs of misuse, however his statements are consistent with a sexually abused child. A therapist has been contacted and the parents are deciding wether to proceed with the case. DR# 84-2341 A case of a physical abuse of a 13 year old girl by the father reported last month. The girl was taken into protective custody where she remained until the morning of the court hearing when she ran away. Unable to locate at this time. DR# 84-1759 The investigation into a child molest case involving a brother and sister being molested by thier step -father continued this month. The mother and kids have dis- appeared and our investigation has been solely to locate them. The district attorney. office did not file the case against the step -father due to'the fact the -witness and victims were unavailable. A stake out of the suspect following his court appearance in an effort to locate the mother and kids proved negative following a 6 hour effort. The district attorney office intends on filing a case against the mother and issuing a warrant for her arrest. DR# 84-1724 An investigation of a suspected sexual abuse of a 4 1/2 year old female is continuing. A therapist has been rconductins extensive interviews with the child. The latest indication is that the molestaticns occurred in San Pedro. OTHER CASES OF INTEREST: DR# 84-2628 A forgery case was investigated;. --leading to the arrest of the susect in L.A.P.D Wilshire Area while he was in a reported stolen vehicle. The suspect stole checks from a van in Hermosa Beach, forged and cashed them in Los Angeles. The investigation lead the to address of a possible suspect. A stake out of his residence lead to his arrest when he drove from the area in a reported stolen vehicle. Case presented to the District Attorneys office who refered the case to our city prosecutor to be handled as a misdemeanor. FORGERY: An investigation into the forgery of checks at local bars resulted in the identification of a suspect and the issu- ance of warrants charging two counts of forgery. Manhattan Beach Police Department also holds a warrant for the suspects arrest for similiar charges. We have been unable to locate the suspect thus far. JUVENILES: There has been a great increase in juvenile detentions. There were twenty juveniles detained at the station for a variety of reasons ranging from curfew violations to drinking in public, marijuana, intoxication all the way to having sex in a public restroom and trespassing.
