WORKMAN CITY TREASURER • CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM Date: January 4, 1999 To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council From: Sol Blumenfeld, Director, Community Development Department 0-4/f1 Subject: Resolution Approving the Conditional Use Permit and Precise Development Plan for an 80 -unit Senior Housing Facility, and Revision to the Negative Declaration. Recommendations To adopt the attached Resolution with Conditions of Approval as modified by the City Council at their meeting October 13, 1998, To approve the Negative Declaration, as revised to remove the mitigation measure prohibiting parking on P.C.H. CONCU' ," Stephe '. Burrell, City Manager 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 4. Pursuant to the provisions of S.P.A. 6 the applicant is requesting approval to exceed the maximum allowable density otherwise allowed in the R-3 zone for housing for senior citizens. The proposal exceeds what would otherwise be allowed by 23 units. 57 units are allowed for a typical multi -family project based on the standards of the R-3 zone and 80 are proposed. Also, pursuant to the provisions of the S.P.A. 6 zone, the applicant is proposing to provide less than the required parking for a multi -family development based on the actual needs of an assisted living senior housing development Section 5. Based on the foregoing factual findings, and the findings of the Planning Commission, the City Council makes the following findings pertaining to the application for a Precise Development Plan and Conditional Use Permit: 1. While the project exceeds the number of residential dwelling units allowed by R-3 standards, the dwelling units within this type of housing equate to a much lesser number if typical multi -family units were provided. The type of housing proposed are bedroom suites for assisted living for senior citizens in need of daily care, with individual units accessed through a common entry area, and the provision of central kitchens and dining area. Therefore, the increase in density'results in a less intensive use, and is consistent with the provisions of S.P.A. 6 and applicable general and specific plans. 2. Parking at a ratio per unit, less than the requirement for multi -family housing, is acceptable for this development, as the occupants in need of specialized care typically do not drive, and the ratio of parking to rooms as proposed exceeds recognized standards for assisted living senior housing project and retirement communities. Further, convenient van service will be provided to the occupants on a regular basis to provide for local transportation need. 3. The overall development with respect to building height, lot coverage, and open space is in compliance with the development requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. 4. Compliance with the Conditions of Approval will mitigate any negative impact resulting from the issuance of the Precise Development Plan. 5. The City Council concurs with the Planning Commission and the Staff Environmental Review Committee's recommendation, based on their environmental assessment/initial study, that this project will result in a less than significant impact on the environment with the mitigating conditions incorporated below, and therefore qualifies for a Negative Declaration. Section 6. Based on the foregoing, the City Council sustains the decision of the Planning Commission and hereby approves the subject Conditional Use Permit and Precise Development Plan, subject to the following Conditions of Approval which supersede the conditions contained in P.C. Resolution 98-48: 1. The development and continued use of the property shall be in conformance with submitted plans reviewed by the City Council at their meeting of October 13, 1998.

Address: 1837 Pacific Coast Highway b. Legal: Portions of Lots 18 & 19, Block 81, 2nd Addition to Hermosa Project Description Zone change from R-3 (Multi -Family Residential) to SPA6 (Specific Plan Area No. 6), and Conditional Use Permit and Precise Development Plan for an 80 unit assisted living senior housing facility. Revision To remove the Mitigation Measure No. 2(a) No parking on Pacific Coast Highway in front of the building: The subject mitigation measure to prohibit parking all hours was originally recommended in order to provide sight distance/vision clearance for vehicles exiting the project site and to act like a deceleration lane (during non peak evening hours) for the entire length of the property (currently parking is prohibited from 3PM — 7PM to allow the right lane along the curb to be used for south -bound traffic flow). This measure is now not considered necessary to mitigate environmental impacts related to traffic safety caused by this project. These impacts are not considered significant given the moderate amount of traffic generation anticipated. Further, red curbing currently exists along the P.C.H. frontage (due to an existing fire hydrant) which provides adequate sight distance/vision clearance (45 -feet) north of the main entrance for exiting vehicles, and for deceleration for south -bound traffic making the mitigation measure unnecessary. Date of Finding Mayor, Hermosa Beach City Council January 19, 1999 Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of the Hermosa Beach City Council January 26, 1999 NEW "CLASS 4" INSURANCE SERVICE OFFICE (ISO) GRADING Recommendation: Direct Staff to publish the results of the new ISO Classification. Background: The ISO grading schedule for municipal fire protection provides a guideline for a municipality to classify their fire defenses and physical conditions. The major components graded by ISO are the Fire Department, Water District, and the Communication's Center. Insurance companies utilize these grading scores to establish base rates for fire insurance purposes. The Fire Suppression Grading Schedule produces ten different public protection classifications, with a Class 1 receiving the most rate recognition and a Class 10 receiving no recognition. Simply stated what this means is that the lower classification a city fire department receives the lower the fire insurance premiums. Analysis: ISO Gradings are performed at 7 to 10 year intervals. The City of Hermosa Beach has been a "Class 5" city for over 20 years. In April of last year the city was again evaluated by ISO. The results of our April evaluation are that the city for the first time has received a "Class 4" grading. This lower classification is a direct result of the improvements made in the Fire Department over the past three years. The new classification was effective and published in November of 1998. All commercial property owners should contact their fire insurance companies and inform them of our new ISO Classification and request a premium reduction. Calculations for residential fire insurance premiums very from insurance company to insurance company. Most insurance companies group residential premiums into two categories, below a five and above a five. Staff also recommends that all residential property owners contact their fire insurance companies to inquire about possible premium reductions. Respectfully Submitted, Concur, Pete Bonano Step ft:' Orrell 1f ✓ • Honorable Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council • //?#4' January 14, 1999 Regular Meeting of January 26, 1999 AWARD OF BIDS: SKATE TRACK CONSTRUCTION CO 97-525 TENNIS COURT CONSTRUCTION/PARKING LOT IMPROVEMENTS CIP 98-526 Recommendation: Staff recommends that Council: 1. Award the contract for Skate Track construction to Asan Construction based on lowest bid price of $104,800. 2. Award the contract for (a) Tennis Court construction, (b) Parking lot improvements, and (c) landscaping (Ardmore wall) to Pima Corporation dba Advanced Construction based on lowest bid price of $347,000. 3. Appropriate $1,880 to CIP 97-525 (Skate Track) and $206,837 to CIP 97-526 (Tennis Courts) from the 4% UUT Fund to provide the total funding required for the projects. 4. Direct the City Clerk to release all other bid bonds; and 5. Authorize the Director of Public Works/City Engineer to issue change orders as necessary within the project budgets. Background: On October 13, 1998, per staff recommendation, Council rejected all bids received for the construction of the Community Center skate track and tennis courts. As directed by Council, staff re -bid the projects, by making some minor modifications to reduce cost and by offering separate bids for the two projects to encourage greater competition among bidders (there were only two bidders in the first round). Analysis: This strategy proved effective in reducing the bid prices. The current bids total $451,000, a 28% reduction from the original low bid price of $630,000. The bid prices (opened on December 17, 1998) were received as follows: Company (location) Skate Track Bid Tennis Court Parking/Landscaping Bid 1. Asan Construction (Calabasas) $104,000 2. Pima Corporation dba Advanced Construction (Santa Monica) $149,000 $347,000 3. California Landscape (Upland) $124,930 4. Zaino Tennis Courts (Orange) $140,000 $386,000 5. 4 -Con Engineering (Azusa) $159,995 $399,500 6. Malibu Pacific Tennis Courts (Westlake) $188,000 $373,000 As evidenced in the Fiscal Impact below, the cost of the skate track is close to the engineer's original budget projections, while the tennis court project has exceeded original projections. In addition to the added landscaping and parking lot improvement items, the tennis court cost reflects the substantial use of retaining walls that are required to build the courts near the hillside adjacent to the Alano Club. While this cost may seem substantial, the replacement of courts 5-6 with new courts replete with modern lighting and an improved location will greatly enhance the tennis facilities for. the City. It is also noteworthy that recreational users will amortize this investment for decades to come (some of our City courts are over 80 years old). The Skate Track remains a long-awaited and much anticipated recreation facility for our youngsters. With Council's approval, Public Works staff anticipates that the contractors can initiate construction within one month and complete the work in four monthstallowing for a summer ribbon -cutting for both facilities.

DAM Y4(I Of w J .7e5._...)9/7/.."--c-d,---0 /�026�95 January 20, 1998 Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular meeting of The Hermosa Beach City Council January 26, 1998 RADIO EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT FOR THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City of Hermosa Beach maintain it's existing radio maintenance contract with Advanced Electronics of Gardena, California BACKGROUND: For the past ten years, the Police and Fire Departments have maintained a maintenance agreement for all of the City's communications equipment with Advanced Electronics of Gardena, California. Advanced Electronics was originally involved in the installation of our police and fire dispatch center along with our base stations, repeaters and radio towers. Since that time Advanced Electronics has maintained our communications infrastructure. An annual maintenance contract has been established each year in July. In October of this year and at the direction of Council, the Police and Fire Department conducted a request for proposal to seek out other qualified vendors that could provide maintenance support for the City's communications systems. On October 22, 1998 bids were received from two vendors. The vendors were Advanced Electronics of Gardena and RadioWave of Long Beach. The Radio Equipment was divided into three groups, Police, Fire, and Community Services for the purposes of bidding. The monthly -proposed maintenance fees that were submitted are as follows: RadioWave Communications Advanced Electronics Police Dept. $1330.50 Fire Dept. $164.00 Community Services $291.00 Total Annual $ 21,426 $1523.45 $210.85 $325.50 $ 24,718 (Difference: $3292/yr) ANALYSIS: In addition to the bids that were received, tours were made of both vendor's facilities. On November 3, 1998 Chief Bonano, Chief Straser and Captain Lavin visited the RadioWave facility in Long Beach. We met with the Vice President of service operations Neil Robinson and Account Executive Stephen Henderson. RadioWave is an authorized Motorola dealer. We met with RadioWave's service technicians that work the Los Angeles area. The shop is small and serves as a satellite facility to their main shop in Burbank. The main service shop and headquarters is in San Diego. RadioWave has a total of 6 service technicians that work in the Los Angeles area. The technicians appeared to be well qualified and we inspected their service trucks that appeared to be well equipped. RadioWave provided us with a list of the four lh • • technicians that might work with our communications equipment along with information about their years of experience and training. Once again the technician staff appeared to be well qualified and RadioWave provided several certificates of training issued by Motorola. RadioWave also provided a list of some of their service references. There were 4 police departments listed, Irwindale, City of La Verne, Cal Poly Pomona PD and San Marino PD. Contact was made with three of the police departments. Two of the departments have standing maintenance contracts while the other department (La Verne) utilizes RadioWave oh a time and material basis only. Nothing but positive comments were received about RadioWave's response times and quality of work. Contact was also made with another customer, the US Customs office at Terminal Island. Again, nothing but praise was received about RadioWave's performance. It appeared that the facility in Long Beach was small and not well equipped to handle repairs of equipment brought in. RadioWave explained that they equipped their trucks with enough diagnostic equipment to attempt to handle all equipment repairs in the field. If the repair could not be made in the field then the equipment would be brought back to the Long Beach facility or sent to the Burbank facility which has a larger repair shop. Many of their service technicians do not live in or near the South Bay area. We were concerned with the small staff of technicians and their ability to respond timely to service calls especially in an emergency. RadioWave explained that in an emergency situation the existing service technicians would either be pulled from any current assignment they were involved in or they would draw down from technicians in San Diego if necessary to meet service needs in Los Angeles. On November 18, 1998 Chief Straser and Captain Lavin toured the Advanced Electronics facility in Gardena. While both of us have been to Advanced Electronics on numerous occasions, we were taken on a complete tour by the President Bob Conrey and the Contracts Administration Manager, Vickie Dubois. Advanced Electronics is a large facility with service shops for handling all types of radio equipment including base stations and repeaters. Advanced Electronics is an authorized Motorola dealer and repair shop. There is a parts department on site along with an installation department and a CCTV department. As mentioned earlier, the City of Hermosa Beach has been utilizing Advanced Electronics for the past 10 years. It should be noted that at the beginning of the 1997/98 fiscal year, we entertained a bid for service from RadioWave. However, Advanced Electronics came in at the lower bid for service at that time. The Advanced Electronics facility is certainly a much larger and more complete facility than the RadioWave facility we toured in Long Beach. Advanced Electronics is also much closer to Hermosa Beach than the RadioWave facility located in Long Beach. Advanced Electronics provided us with a list of some of their service contract customers. There were a total of 18 police and/or fire departments listed. Of note were the length of service at some of these agencies such as City of Downey —10 years, City of Long Beach - 8 years, City of Lynwood — 32 years, City of Monterey Park — 16 years, City of Redondo Beach — 17 years, City of Signal Hill — 18 years to name just a few. Advance also has contracts with Federal agencies such as the DEA, U.S. Airforce, U.S. Customs, U.S. Postal Service, and the Naval Weapons stations at Seal Beach and Corona. Advanced provided information on their technical staffing. There are a total of 8 shop technicians, 13 field technicians, and 5 installers. Of this group, there • • are 4 senior technicians, a CCTV specialist, and a specialist in fixed equipment, mobiles and data systems. It is obvious that Advanced Electronics is a well-established maintenance provider in the South Bay and Los Angeles area. Advanced first went into business as a Motorola service center in May of 1961 and has maintained their license with Motorola since that time. A majority of our radio equipment is of the Motorola brand, which is why we sought out a Motorola service center in the first place. A review of the maintenance contracts with Advanced Electronics has been done back to the 1995/96 fiscal year. Each piece of equipment has a monthly per unit cost for maintenance. For example, a portable radio might have a monthly maintenance cost of $6.00 per month. Since 1995/96 the monthly per unit cost for equipment has actually been reduced by Advanced. Therefore we are paying less per unit of equipment than in years past yet at the same time, Advanced has enhanced the maintenance package by providing additional benefits such as replacement batteries each year for the portable radios and a yearly RF environmental site survey. Our experience and relationship with Advanced Electronics has been very good over the years. The most positive thing that can be said about Advanced Electronics is that when we call them, they come. Some of our equipment is under a 24-hour maintenance support plan. There have been occasions when after hours and even on holidays, when we have had problems with our communications equipment. Advanced not only responded to our service calls, their technicians did not leave until the problem was fixed. That is probably the most important feature of service provided by Advanced Electronics. CONCLUSION: Both Advanced Electronics and RadioWave have quality operations and quality people. While RadioWave did come in at a lower price, we have concerns about their smaller technician staff and their ability to adequately and consistently respond to our needs. Advanced has a proven track record of 10 years with the City of Hermosa Beach. They know our equipment and we have always relied upon their expertise in managing our communications systems. Advanced Electronics is physically closer to our City than RadioWave. On those occasions when we send equipment in for repair, we know that technicians at Advanced in Gardena are handling it. Their turnaround time has been good. RadioWave does not have the facilities in Long Beach to handle some repairs and would have to send out our equipment to their shop in Burbank. Turnaround time is an unknown factor. The police and fire communications center plays a very important role in our public safety infrastructure. The center operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It is important that we have confidence in the maintenance providers that maintain these systems. Price cannot be the single determinant factor in this type of decision. Many other factors must be taken into consideration as well. The difference in price was not that great ($3292 per year) and with the proven record of Advance Electronics for the past 10 years it is our recommendation that the City maintain its existing radio maintenance contract with Advanced Electronics. ! • Respectfully submitted, Val Straser, Chief of Police Hermosa Beach Police Department Pete Bonano Hermosa Beach Fire Department oncur: Step en a urell City Manager Fiscal Impact: Viki Copeland, Finance Director • January 11, 1999 Honorable Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council • Regular Meeting of January 26, 1999 SAINT PATRICK'S DAY PARADE AND FESTIVAL: SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1999 Recommendation Staff recommends that Council approve: 1.

BACKGROUND: The annual investment report for 1999 submitted for your consideration is the same as 1998. There have been no additions or deletions to the kind or type of investments. With safety as a focus, the investments described will continue to earn reasonable returns with no loss of principal. Noted: Stephen R.

Workman City Treasurer lk • • RESOLUTION NO. 99- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, ACKNOWLEDGING THE RECEIPT AND FILING OF AND APPROVING THE ANNUAL STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY AND DELEGATING INVESTMENT AUTHORITY TO THE CITY TREASURER FOR THE YEAR 1999 WHEREAS, Government Code Section 53646 requires the filing of an annual Statement of Investment Policy by local public agencies; and WHEREAS, the City Treasurer of the City of Hermosa Beach has rendered the following Statement of Investment Policy to this city council for the calendar year 1999: PURPOSE: This statement is intended to provide a guideline for the prudent investment of temporary idle cash, trust funds and restricted moneys and to outline a policy for maximizing the efficiency of the cash management system. Ultimate investment goals include the enhancement of economic status and the protection of pooled cash investments. OBJECTIVE: The cash management system of the City of Hermosa Beach is designed to accurately monitor and forecast expenditures and revenues, thus insuring the investment of moneys to the fullest extent possible. The city attempts to obtain'.' - • - - yields pes as long as investments meet the criteria required for safety and liquidity. POLICY: The City of Hermosa Beach operate its investment program with State and self-imposed constraints. It does not buy st s, it does not speculate; it does not deal in futures, options or security loan agreements. With regard to investment companies, the City will deal only with investment companies registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The City Treasurer will have sole discretion over Security Trading, except in the case of monies invested in the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and the Los Angeles County Pooled Investment fund (LACPIF). Longer term investments (over one year) are generally limited to maturates of 3 years or less, but will never exceed five years. Criteria for selecting investments and the absolute order of priority are: -1- 1. Safety: The safety and risk associated with an investment refers to the potential loss of principal, interest or a combination of these amounts. Since it is the primary duty and responsibility of the Treasurer to protect, preserve and maintain cash and investments placed in his/her trust on behalf of the citizens of the City, Hermosa Beach only invests in those instruments that are considered very safe. 2. Liquidity: This refers to the ability to "cash in" at any moment in time with minimal chance of losing some portion of the principal or interest. An adequate percentage of the portfolio should be maintained in liquid short-term investments which can be converted to cash if necessary to meet disbursement requirements. Since all cash requirements cannot be anticipated, investments in securities with active secondary or resale markets is highly recommended. Emphasis should be on marketable securities with low sensitivity to market risk. 3. Yield: yield is the potential dollar earnings an investment can provide, and sometimes is described as the rate of return. It should become a consideration only after the basic requirements of safety and liquidity have been met. The City's investment philosophy is to insure the safety of principle and to provide money when needed. A high dollar yield ori investments, though important, ranks third in the priority of investment strategy. DEPOSITORY SERVICES: Money must be deposited in state or national banks, state or federal savings associations, or state or federal credit unions in the state. It may be in inactive deposits, active deposits or interest-bearing active deposits which are insured or collateralized as required by Government Code Section 53630 at seq. The deposits generally may not exceed the amount of the bank's shareholder's equity, the savings and loan's networth or the credit union's unimpaired capital and surplus. We require that each financial institution submit curren man statements whicg are evaluated prior to the investment of funds. We use the following criteria: The institution must have been in business at least three years. The institution must submit audited financial statements. In addition, examination is made of the Reserve for Loan -2- Losses category to evaluate the financial trend of the institution's asset base. Whenever possible, the use of several years' financial data is evaluated to present a trend of activity in the institution. We also require the interest be paid to the City on a monthly basis (current state law only requires quarterly payment). AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS: Generally, investments shall be made in the context of "prudent man" rule, which states that, "investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived." The City is further governed by the California Government Code, Sections 53600 et seq. Within the context of these limitations, the following investments are authorized, as further limited herein: NEGOTIABLE CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT: Not more than 5% of the City's portfolio is invested in any one institution. Time Certificates of Deposits are safekept in a legally acceptable safekeeping account. Total purchases are not to exceed 30% of surplus funds. An institution must meet the following criteria to be considered by the City: 1. The institution must be located in California. 2. The institution must have current financial information, signed contract and waiver on file with the City. 3. The institution must maintain a net worth to asset ratio of a least 5%, and have a positive earnings record. 4. The institution must be at least 3 years old. U. S. TREASURY's are direct obligations of the United States Government. U.S. TREASURY BILLS are issued weekly with maturity dates up to one year. They are issued and traded on a discount basis and the interest is figured on the 360 -day basis, actual number of days. They are issued in amounts of $10,000 and up, in multiples of $5,000. They are a highly liquid security. -3- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 • U.S. TREASURY NOTES are initially issued with two to ten year maturities. They are actively traded in a large secondary market and are very liquid. MEDIUM-TERM NOTES (MTN) are corporate notes. Issuers include well-recognized banks and bank holding companies, insurance companies, finance companies and industrial corporations. A large percentage of MTN are unsecured senior debt obligations, although a number of recent issues have come to market on a collateralized or secured basis. Maturity bonds are from 9 months to one year, one year to 1 months, 18 months to 2 years, and annually thereafter. Typically, rates are established at a positive spread over a Treasury security of comparable maturity. Credit ratings on MTN are established by nationally recognized rating services. Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investors Service and Fitch Investors Service. Credit supported MTN typically carry the Aaa/AAA long term rating, based on the credit -worthiness of the support entity. Collateralized MTNs receive the same rating based on the over collateralization limits set by Standard and Poor's and Moody's. Although a rating of A is required for Municipal investment as per sections 53601 and/or 53635, this agency, as policy, will only consider investments with Aa/aa or better. There can be only 30% of the total surplus funds used for MTN investment as per section 53635. MTNs offer safety, yield and liquidity through a strong secondary market. BANKERS ACCEPTANCES are negotiable time drafts drawn to finance the export, import, shipment or storage of goods, and they are termed "Accepted" when a bank guarantees to pay the face value at maturity. A Banker's Acceptance constitutes an irrevocable obligation of the accepting bank and a contingent obligation of the drawer and of any endorsees whose names appear upon it. The bank is protected by its customer's agreement to provide the necessary funds in advance of the maturity of the Acceptance and also by the pledge of documents such as bills of lading, independent warehouse of terminal receipts, and other documents evidencing ownership and the insurance of the goods so financed. Cities and other local agencies are authorized to purchase Banker's Acceptances subject to several restrictions. First, the Banker's Acceptance must be eligible for purchase by the Federal Reserve System. Second, purchases of Banker's Acceptances must not exceed two -4- hundred seventy (270) days' maturity or 40% of the City's surplus money invested under Sections 53601 and/or 53635. Finally, no more than 5% of the agency's surplus funds may be invested in the Banker's Acceptances of any one commercial bank. LOCAL AGENCY INVESTMENT FUND (LATE) is a pooled investment fund in the State Treasury which local agencies may use to deposit funds for investment. There is no minimum investment period and the minimum transaction is $5,000, in multiples of $1,000 above that, with a maximum of $15,000,000 for any agency. The City is restricted to a maximum of ten transactions per month. It offers high liquidity because deposits can be converted to cash in twenty-four hours and no interest is lost. All interest is distributed to those agencies participating on a proportionate share determined by the amounts deposited and the length of time they are deposited. Interest is paid quarterly via a check or warrant. The State keeps an amount for reasonable costs of making the investments, not to exceed one-quarter of one percent of the earnings. The interest rates are fairly high because of the pooling of the State surplus cash with the surplus cash deposited by local governments. This creates a multi -billion dollar money pool and allows diversified investments. In a high interest rate market, we do better than LAW, but in times of low interest rates, LAW yields are higher. The City continually invests in the Local Agency Investment Fund (Government Code Section 16429). LOS ANGELES COUNTY POOLED INVESTMENT FUND (LACPIF) Pursuant to Government Code Section 53684, local agencies in the County of Los Angeles may deposit excess funds in LACPIF for the purpose of investment by the county treasurer Government Code Sections 53601 and 53635; The County keeps an amount for reasonable costs of making the investments, not to exceed 16 basis points per month. The numbers of monthly transactions are not restricted. SAFEKEEPING: Certificate of Deposits or Receipts of Public Funds must be mailed or delivered to the City. Banker's acceptances are actual "physical" securities, meaning they are evidenced by actual certificates. All Treasury bills and most other Treasury securities are "book entry" securities, meaning they are held at the Federal Reserve Union Bank of California where only a book entry is used to denote ownership. -5- Collateral for time deposits in banks and savings and loans are held by the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHB) or an approved Agency of Depository of the financial institution. Securities purchased from broker/dealers shall be held in third party safekeeping. PUBLIC TRUST: All participants in the investment process shall act as custodians of the public trust. Investment officials shall recognize that the investment portfolio is subject to public review and evaluation. The overall program shall be designed and managed with a degree of professionalism that is worthy of the public trust. In a diversified portfolio it must be recognized that occasional measurement losses are inevitable, and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio's investment return, provided that adequate diversification has been implemented. RISK TOLERANCE: The City Council recognizes that investment risks can result from issuer defaults, market price changes or various technical complications leading to temporary illiquidity. Portfolio diversification is employed as a way to control risk. Investment Managers are expected to display prudence in the selection of securities, as a way to minimize default risk. No individual investment transaction shall be undertaken which jeopardizes the total capital position of the overall portfolio. The Treasurer shall periodically establish guidelines and strategies to control risks of default, market price changes, and illiquidity. REPORTING: The Treasurer or his deputy shall submit a monthly investment report to the City Council. This report will include all required elements of the monthly report as prescribed by Government Code Section 53646. Under the City's current Investment Policy, the monthly report shall include: a. Type of investment b. Name of issuer c. Date of investment d. Date of maturity e. Amount of deposit or cost of the security f. Current market value g. Asking price -6- • • h. Rate of Interest j. A statement of compliance with California Code Section 53646, from the City Treasurer certifying that sufficient investment liquidity and anticipated revenues are available to meet the City's budgeted expenditure requirement for the next six months; and NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. That the annual Statement of Investment Policy for the City of Hermosa Beach, as set forth in the recitals hereof, filed by the City Treasurer in compliance with Section 53646 (a) of the Government Code, is hereby approved.

FIREFIGHTING EQUIPMENT AND VEHICLES • January 13, 1999 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting of the Hermosa Beach City Council January 27, 1999 1997 - 98 COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT (Including Report from Independent Auditor) RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Receive and file the 1997-98 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), which includes the report from Caporicci and Larson, our independent auditors. 2. Amend the current policy on transferring General Fund surplus to divide any surplus between the Equipment Replacement Fund (ERF), Insurance Fund and Capital Improvement Fund. BACKGROUND CAFR Annually the City has a financial audit performed by an independent certified public accounting firm. The auditor's report is located behind the second divider that is labeled "Financial Section". The City again received an unqualified opinion, which indicates that the auditor believes the financial statements present a fair picture of the financial position of the City, as opposed to a qualified opinion, in which the auditor "qualifies" or limits his opinion for specific reasons, such as lack of fixed asset accounting or significant intemal control deficiencies. The report is a comprehensive report (as opposed to just financial statements) prepared in accordance with guidelines provided by the Govemment Finance Officers Association (GFOA) and all applicable accounting standards. The City has received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the GFOA for the last six years and the Certificate of Award for Outstanding Financial Reporting from the Califomia Society of Municipal Finance Officers (CSMFO) for seven years. The award programs require a high level of compliance with govemmental standards, inclusion of information well beyond the general-purpose financial statements and an unqualified audit opinion. The 1997-98 CAFR has been submitted to both of the associations for consideration in the award programs since the certificates are valid for one year only. Surplus Currently, any General Fund surplus is divided equally between the ERF, Insurance Fund and Compensated Absences Fund. 4 • ANALYSIS CAFR The following analysis deals with the General Fund, which is the main operating fund of the City. Additional analysis of all governmental funds is included in the Transmittal Letter, which begins on page i at the front of the CAFR. General Fund Revenue General Fund revenue increased 6% over 1996-97. REVENUE SOURCE Revenue Increase % Of FY 97-98 (Decrease) Inc.

Growth in Licenses and Permits is related to construction activity. Revenue from building, plumbing and electric permits increased 84% over the previous year. The number of residential building permits issued grew by 69%. Fines and Forfeitures increased 20% because the State changed the allocation to return funds that were taken during the recession to balance the State budget. The increase in Charges for Services is primarily attributable to planning fees resulting from increased building activity, increased participation in recreation classes and Pier Plaza encroachments. Miscellaneous Revenue shows a decrease because of one-time surplus retirement funds received in the prior year. 2 Taxes Revenue from taxes generates 75% of General Fund revenue. The graph below tracks the three largest revenue sources over the past ten years. 4,000,000 3,500,000 - 3,000,000 2,500,000 General Fund - Largest Revenue Sources 1,500,000 =• 1,000.000 500.000 - 0 1987-88 1988-89 1989-90 1990-91 1991-92 1992-93 1993-94 1994-95 1995-96 1996-97 1997-98 • -0-PROP TAX -i -UUT --*-SALES TAX Property taxes overall increased 9%.

General Govemment increased 8% because of higher costs for State mandated cost recovery and utility user tax and transient occupancy tax auditing, all of which result in higher revenue. Public Safety increased 6% due, primarily to negotiated salary increases. Culture and Recreation rose 16% as a result of increased participation in recreation programs and classes, which are offset by increases in revenue. Community Development expenditures show a decrease of 5% because of the 1st floor City Hall remodel in the previous year. Without remodel costs, the increase in expenditures would be 18% because of high development activity. The number of residential building permits issued increased 69% during this period, as mentioned earlier. The increase of 12% in the Public Works category reflects absorption of parks landscaping costs from the Lighting and Landscaping Fund due to passage of Proposition 218. The assessment district may no longer fund these costs. General Fund Surplus The policy of transferring any General Fund surplus to the ERF, Insurance Fund and the Accrued Compensation Fund was implemented in 1995-96 to build equity in the funds to cover liabilities. The Accrued Comp Fund and the ERF were new funds; the Insurance Fund had no equity, with a balance of ($143,739). The policy has been successful, in that the balance in the Accrued Comp Fund is adequate to fund liabilities. The balance left at 6/30/98 is $229,442. Much progress has also been made in the ERF and the Insurance Fund, but full funding has not yet been achieved. It is recommended that the policy be changed so that any General Fund surplus transfers to the ERF and Insurance Fund as before, with the other 1/3 going to the Capital Improvement Fund rather than the Accrued Comp Fund. General Fund Balance Fund balance as a percent of expenditures is a measure of the City's cushion against economic uncertainties or revenue shortfalls. Bond rating agencies have historically considered at least a 5% reserve "prudent", however, level of reserves should be decided based on individual circumstances and the economic climate. The General Fund contingency balance is 14% of expenditures. An additional $119,666 is shown as unreserved at year-end. Those funds will be used for reappropriations to the 1998-99 budget, which were approved by the City Council in August. 5 Midyear Budget Review, conducted next month, will provide the next opportunity to review our financial picture. Gary Caporicci, one of the partners in charge of our audit, will be present at the meeting.

Historic designation of the Bijou Building. 2. Proposed tenant improvements and building use. 3. Seismic retrofit of the Bijou Building and consultant review of final plans 4. Adoption of the Secretary of Interior Standards for Building Rehabilitation in connection with the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance Background: On October 20, 1998 the City Council adopted Historic Preservation Ordinance No. 98-1186 designating certain buildings candidates for historic designation including the Bijou Theater Building. Prior to adoption of the Historic Preservation Ordinance these buildings were also subject to Moratorium Ordinance No. 97-1169U which prohibited plan review or issuance of a building permit which could threaten the historic integrity of these buildings including seismic retrofit. On November 10, 1998, the City Council approved a resolution granting relief from Section 5 of the Moratorium Ordinance No. 96-1168U to allow the seismic retrofit of the Bijou Building pursuant to the scope of work submitted on September 17, 1998 plans. The Council also directed staff to prepare an architectural resources survey of the buildings identified in the Historic Preservation Ordinance and to review of the seismic retrofit plans for the Bijou Building. The firm of Planning Consultants Research (PCR) was retained to both conduct the survey and retrofit plan review. An Architectural Resources Survey Report was delivered on January 7, 1999 indicating that the Bijou Building should be considered for historic designation and on January 20, 1998 a Seismic Retrofit Plan Review and Assessment Report was submitted for City Council consideration. (Please See Attachment 2). Analysis: I. Architectural Resources Survey Report: The report analyzes designation criteria under federal, State and local landmark programs in order to determine significance. To be eligible for National Register of Historic Places listing a resource must be significant in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering or culture. The criteria for eligibility for the California Register are based upon National Register criteria and also includes California Register Regulations. The California Office of Historic Preservation utilizes an evaluation and classification to determine eligibility and the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance adopted October 1998 defines a landmark as: A. A resource exemplifying special cultural, social economic political, aesthetic, engineering or architectural history B. A resource identified with persons or events significant in local, state, or national history A • • II. Seismic Retrofit Plan Review and Assessment Report PCR reviewed the Bijou retrofit plans based upon the Architectural Survey criteria and the guidelines established in the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance. The plans consist of site plans and specs, ground floor mezzanine plan, second and third floor plans, east -west sections, auditorium sections, east elevations, north elevations and project details. Generally, PCR notes that most of the work proposed in the project plans will not compromise the building's character defining features, however some of the work appears to potentially impact these features and the building's historic significance. The key areas of concern relate to permanent changes to the building's "character defining features" as described below and the need to minimize disruption to these features. Discussion of Retrofit Plans: The retrofit project involves the construction of grade beams and installation of moment frame bracing systems at three locations on the first floor level which could damage interior plaster ornamentation such as molding, capitals, columns and ceilings. PCR recommendations are summarized as follows : East Wall (See Page 26 and 27 Retrofit Report) • Entire moment frame in north bay should be relocated to south bay since there are no character defining features in that area. Move the horizontal member in the center bay (foyer) and do not alter wall profiles • Two horizontal moment frame members running along the first floor will penetrate the ceiling of the first floor and should be installed only to connect the vertical bracing • Horizontal moment frame members running along the first floor should be installed from the second floor joint and penetration in the ceiling of the first floor should be done only to connect to the vertical brace frame and a second horizontal member running parallel along bottom transom window frame should be installed out of view from the building exterior or positioned behind a diffused light panel in the transom window. ■ Vertical and horizontal moment frame bracing should be placed away from the plaster ornamentation to avoid damage to character defining features (both interior and exterior) and place frame members adjacent existing door openings and behind pilasters. The bracing will be visible in the building's interior but not impact the significance of the building. North Wall (See Page 28 Retrofit Report) • Relocate moment frame bracing system one bay west and out of the northeast corner of that commercial space to minimize damage to character defining features along wall and corner and avoid altering wall profiles. • Install horizontal moment frame members from the second floor joint and penetration in the ceiling of the first floor only to connect the vertical brace frame • Place vertical and horizontal moment frame bracing away from the plaster ornamentation to avoid further damage of features. Place frame members adjacent existing door openings and behind pilasters. • Prepare a mold of any area which may be subject to damage during this procedure to reproduce any lost ornamentation. Interior North Wall of Auditorium (See Page 28-30) • Relocate moment frame bracing system one bay west where there are no character defining features • Place vertical and horizontal moment frame bracing away from wall approximately two inches to avoid further damage of features and permanent visual impacts. 3 • • CIM has requested that the City clarify it's intent relative future use of the Bijou Building beyond seismic retrofit. (See attached letter) The City Attorney has advised that there is considerable doubt that the City can regulate the use of the property through the Historic Preservation Ordinance without a compelling reason. Environmental Review: Section 15331 - Categorical Exemption for Projects Restoring Or Rehabilitating Historical Structures under CEQA guidelines provides that a seismic retrofit project such as proposed for the Bijou Building is Categorically Exempt from environmental review if the work is consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Treatment of Historic Properties. Future building rehabilitation associated with tenant improvements and issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness must involve environmental review for all nonexempt work.

The Council finds that granting relief from the Moratorium Ordinance will not unreasonably affect the possible future designation of the building as a landmark. SECTION 4. Based on the foregoing, the City Council grants relief pursuant to Section 5 of the Moratorium Ordinance No. 96-1168-U, allowing the seismic retrofit of the Bijou Building, subject to the following special conditions: 1. The relief from the Moratorium Ordinance only applies to consideration of the scope of work depicted in the plans submitted to the City on September 17, 1998. 2. Permits for building and structural alterations shall only be issued following a City Council determination, based on review and analysis of the submitted plans, that the proposed work will not unreasonably prejudice the designation of the building as a landmark. 3. The applicant shall cooperate with the City in any future designation of the Bijou Building as a landmark. "4. Any work to the building, not included in the scope of the seismic retrofit which may be approved by the City Council, including but not limited to, the restoration of the exterior elevations of the building, will be subject to the procedures set forth in the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance for review and approval of minor alterations, Certificates of Appropriateness, and hardship relief.

That resolution established that permits would be issued based upon a City Council determination that the proposed work will not unreasonably prejudice the designation of the building as a landmark. On January 12 a very comprehensive review of the plans was undertaken in a meeting involving PCR Services Corporation and Robert Chattel, our Preservation Architect During the meeting Mr. Chattel was asked by you and PCR to annotate the September 17 plans to show all clarifications, changes or conditions that PCR recommended to assure that the building's significant features would not be damaged Without exception, we concur with each of these conditions. We are presently preparing a corrected set of plans and calculations to be submitted for your final review and aPo oval, subject to City Council authorization pursuant to Resolution #98-5940. At the upcoming City Council meeting on January 26, 1999 we will be looking forward to City Council approval and authorization of permits for the seismic retrofit, floor leveling and 13th Street store openings as depicted on the plans and annotated to show conditions that have been required to minimize and avoid alteration of significant building elements. Timely installation of moment frames, roof -to -wall ties, diaphram strengthening, truss -to - wall ties, and other mortar repairs will be the best insurance against destruction of this landmark property. This initial phase of preservation work may cost up to $500,000. We must note that we are prepared to undertake this work for the express purpose of preparing the building so it can be leased to retail and restaurant/entertainment tenants on the ground floor and office uses on the two upper floors. In conversations with you and the City Attorney, it is our understanding that the current zoning, non -conforming status of the building as to parking, or the HPO cannot be used to limit the uses of the building 10960 V(ilAirr.

BACKGROUND: I have attached the letter of Roger Bacon outlining his proposal for a Surfer's Walk of Fame that he discussed at the last meeting. The proposal does not discuss the location of the walk so this would have to be decided if you desire to proceed with the proposal. The cost estimate seems reasonable but would depend somewhat on where the plaques are located. Funding for the program would come from the banner program similar to the one used for the windmill. It is proposed that the banner program begin immediately and the details of the Walk of Fame be worked out later. It would also be a good idea to start off with the City receiving the contributions directly and keeping the funds in trust until needed. I would also suggest a goal be set on how much is needed so we know the number of banners that need to be sold. 6 FROM : RALPHS SHOPPING CENTER • PHONE NO. : 310 3748992 • Jan. 19 1999 11:40AM P2 � 1_1-21-3 L SL O L2 LN C CENTER January 19, 1999 Mr. Steve Burrell City Manager CITY OF HERMOSA.BEACH 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 RE: SURFER'S WALK OF FAME Dear Steve: Regarding our telephone conversation this morning. I am herein requesting to be placed on the:City Council meeting agenda on January'26, 1999 for the pur- pose of an approval for the "Surfer's Walk of Fame" of which I described briefly at the City of Hermosa Beach Council meeting January 12, 1999. Please find attached hereto a•candidate list of famous surfers, young and old. The. proposed project would commence with an additional ten charter members in the "Surfer's Walk. of Fame.'.! This list could be modified as discussions are going on forthwith with Leroy Grannis, Eddie Talbot, Hap Jacobs, Dale Velzy, Bob and Bill-Mistriel, etc. The forementioned charter members list will be refined as time goes on.. The estimated cost for an appropriate bronze placque, with a surfboard, and the charter surf ers'•names thereon Would be approximately $10,000 which includes labor, materials, artwork, etc. Because Hermosa Bich is where surfing really originated in the 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s, we would like to • consider a second round of possibly ten more names of surfers. \I am recommending a committee be.estabiished.of surfer historians and surfers. We will be happy to'work with the City of'Hermosa Beach's staff to implement the above program. The funds would'come from a banner program similar to the one utilized by the Vetter Windmill Program.

BACKGROUND: The City Council appointed a sub -committee of Councilmembers Edgerton and Oakes to meet with the Chamber of Commerce and businesses in the downtown area to go over the concems expressed at the November 10, 1999 meeting. The sub -committee met on January 8, 1999, and developed a plan to keep all of the familiar activities and still generate enough revenue for Chamber. Several changes to the operation of the Fiesta are recommended including the keeping the booths up on Saturday and Sunday nights; locating the children's ride area to the west 1/3 portion of Lot A; running the shuttle into the evening; adding a chili cookoff with beer tasting on 11th Street; moving the south stage to the chili cookoff area; have the petting zoo in Shark's Cove parking lot; develop a plan to help adjacent restaurants to get health permits for outside sales. The sub -committee also discussed having a theme for future Fiesta's. Developing a theme was to be worked during the next few months so it could be considered for the Labor Day Fiesta or later Fiesta's. These changes will allow the Fiesta to meet the goals set forth in the smaller area. Future changes, as the Fiesta evolves, can be considered in the manner that these have been made. It is possible that the format of future events could change depending on how successful this new format it.
