Objective: A El Segundo promotes economic growth and vitality for businesses

ORIGINATED BY: Lifan Xu, City Engineer /, " —
REVIEWED
REVIEWED BY: Mark Watkins, Interim Public Works Director 1. -�►r Mar
APPROVED BY: Scott Mitnick, City Manager sW
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
For the past 35 years, the City of El Segundo has had an ongoing, agreeable partnership with
Outfront Decaux Street Furniture, LLC (previously named CBS/Decaux) to maintain bus shelters
at 24 advertising -based and 11 non -advertising -based locations throughout the City. The current
Agreement #3500 originated in 2005 for a five-year term and included a five-year option to renew
clause which had been previously exercised in 2010 and 2015 accordingly. The Agreement calls
for an annual 22.5% gross proceeds payment to the City from advertising, which generates
approximately $90,000 in annual revenue to the General Fund. This long standing partnership is
mutually beneficial for both entities, and the rates provided by Outfront Decaux are considered
competitive.
24
Therefore, staff recommends extending the current contract at this time for another five-year term
with one additional option to renew. Staff estimates that the Agreement will generate
approximately $450,000 in revenue over the next five-year term.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The Fiber Optics Vault Lid Replacement Project was approved as part of the adopted FY2019/20
budget. In September 2018, one of the City's fiber optic vault lids unbolted (at the location in front
of the Teen Center on Grand Avenue) and created a loud banging noise as cars drove over it. City
staff safely secured the lid with steel plate while a solution to the problem was determined.
Research concluded that the City has seven existing fiber optic vaults in roadways with vault lids
that are failing and have been modified over the past 10 years to prevent the vault lids from popping
up.

McCoy, Inc. (H&M) in the amount of $127,102.29 and approved an additional $19,000 for
construction -related contingencies. Construction began on April 13, 2020 and was successfully
completed by H&M on April 30, 2020. A final inspection of the work has been performed and it
was determined that the project was completed in accordance with the plans and specifications and
to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department.
Staff respectfully recommends that City Council accept the work performed by Henkels & McCoy,
Inc. as complete and authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion with the County
Recorder's Office.

Following the bid opening on June 16th, 2020, a bid protest was received from R.E. Schultz
Construction regarding CEM Construction not being a certified installer from the specified
playground equipment manufacturer (LSI) as stated in the bid requirements. After further
investigation, the LSI manufacturer list of certified installers is limited to eight, (8) contractors,
only one (1) of which bid on the project. LSI certification generally takes more than a few weeks
to obtain, and often times, the local representative for LSI will recommend the contractor based
on work history of installing LSI equipment. LSI does not require a certified installer to install
equipment and the warranties of the equipment are valid as long as the equipment is installed
properly and in accordance with the installation instructions provided. Staff determined that the
certified installer requirement should not have been included during the bidding phase to allow
more competitive bidding. In consultation with City Attorney's office, rejecting all bids and
rebidding the project immediately without the requirement represents the best course of action to
resolve the bid protest and potentially secure a better bid price for the project.
Staff respectfully recommends that City Council reject all bids for the Acacia Park Playground
and Site Improvement Project and asks City Council for approval to rebid the project immediately.

ORIGINATED BY: Floriza Rivera, Principal Engine
REVIEWED BY: Mark Watkins, Interim Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Scott Mitnick, City Manage 11t, 6.w,)
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
Much of the City's water transmission and distribution system dates back to the 1920's and many
of our water mains have exceeded their useful life and need replacement. Standard practices call
for replacing lines every 50-70 years due to natural degradation from soil chemistry and
chlorinated potable water sources. In light of that, staff regularly evaluates the conditions of the
pipes to develop and prioritize a replacement schedule each year.
The water main on Indiana Street has experienced several problems over the past years. Staff
evaluated its condition and determined that the segment between Mariposa Avenue and Holly
Avenue is in need of replacement. This work was identified and approved in the adopted budget
as part of the Capital Improvement Program, and will advance our ultimate goal to replace all of
36
our aging water infrastructure. The plans and specifications, prepared by Omnis Consulting Inc.,
are now complete and ready for adoption by City Council.
Staff respectfully recommends that City Council adopt the attached resolution approving the
plans and specifications for the project and authorize advertising the project for bidding.

APPROVED BY: Scott Mitnick, City Manager ( pr Csvk

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
On June 16, 2020, City Council adopted the plans and specifications for the FY 19/20 Pavement
Rehabilitation Project (Project) to repair the following streets with a 2" removal and replacement
(R&R) strategy, along with R&R of severely deteriorated pavement areas:
■ E. Imperial Avenue from McCarthy Court to California Street
• E. Pine Avenue from Arena Street to Center Street
• California Street from W. Imperial Highway to its south cul-de-sac.
On November 12, 2019, the City Clerk received and opened six bids as follows:
1. Hardy and Harper, Inc.
$312,000.00
2. Palp, Inc. DBA Excel Paving Company
$329,733.50
3. Copp Contracting, Inc.
$331,587.40
4. All American Asphalt
$352,222.00
5. Sully Miller Contracting Co.
$359,999.00
6. Toro Construction
$393,532.38
The lowest responsive and responsible bidder is Hardy and Harper, Inc. Staff checked the
contractor's references and license status. They have satisfactorily completed similar projects for
the Cities of Chino Hills, Dana Point, Inglewood, and San Clemente, and their license is in good
standing. Hardy and Harper, Inc. has also previously worked on last year's City Pavement
Rehabilitation project.
Staff noticed the contractor bid more than 5% of the total bid amount for Bid Item #I (Mobilization
and Demobilization including traffic control), although the project specifications state that the bid
item shall not exceed 5% of the total bid. Staff investigated and concluded this minor discrepancy
is inconsequential and it does not affect the bid amount nor give the bidder an advantage over
others.
In an abundance of caution; however, staff recommends the following item be identified as a minor
irregularity and waived by the City Council:
1. The lowest bidder, Hardy and Harper, Inc. bid more than 5% of the total bid amount for
Bid Item #1.
In addition to the recommended 10% construction contingency ($31,200), staff requests $22,547
be added to the contract award to address striping concerns in other areas of the City and to make
use of economies of scale and the low bid amount, listed below. With less traffic on city streets
as a result of the Covid-19 precautions, the Street Maintenance Supervisor found many of these
striping issues easier to notice and investigate.
1. Main Street between Pine Avenue and Palm Avenue: double -yellow centerline
2. Northbound Eucalyptus Drive at Holly Avenue: STOP bar and limit line
3. Joslyn Center/Recreation Park south parking lot: white parking stalls and pavement
markings
4. Northbound Washington Street at Holly Avenue: STOP bar and limit line
57
5. Douglas Street from 605 Douglas Street to Park Place: lane, crosswalk, and arrow striping,
as well as pavement markings
6. Transit Way south of 605 Douglas Street: lane, crosswalk, and arrow striping
7. Aviation Blvd. from Imperial Highway to Rosecrans Boulevard: City boundary markers
Staff solicited an inspection proposal from KOA with whom the City has a current on-call paving
project inspection contract. KOA has provided inspection and testing services on resurfacing
projects for the City over the past few years and staff finds them to be competent and professional,
and their rates appropriate for the services to be provided.
The paving project was originally budgeted in SB -1 (Senate Bill 1 of 2017, the "Road Repair and
Accountability Act") fund and other Metro grant local return in the adopted budget. However, the
SB -1 fund for the last pavement project wasn't fully distributed to the City at time of construction
and other expiring grant fund had to be spent first instead of the SB -1 fund for the last paving
project. Therefore, there is sufficient SB -1 fund to fully cover this project without the need of
other funding source if council approve the additional appropriation of $144,678 from SB -1 fund.
Therefore, staff respectfully suggests that City Council approve the recommended actions as noted.
With Council's authorization, construction is anticipated to commence in late September and be
completed in November 2020.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
In November 2018, voters in Los Angeles County successfully passed Measure W creating the
Safe, Clean Water Program which provides local, dedicated funding for stormwater and urban
runoff to increase our local water supply, improve water quality, and protect public health.
Measure W imposed a Special Parcel Tax upon parcels within the boundaries of Los Angeles
County Flood Control District ("District") at the rate of two and one-half (2.5) cents per square
foot of impermeable area (except as exempted). The District shall use the Special Parcel Tax
revenues to pay for the costs and expenses of carrying out Projects and Programs to increase
stormwater or urban runoff capture or reduce stormwater or urban runoff pollution in the District.
To do this, the District shall allocate revenues derived from the special parcel tax as follows:
1. Ten percent (10%) shall be allocated to the District for implementation and administration
of Programs and Projects.
2. Forty percent (40%) shall be allocated to municipalities in the District, in the same
proportion as the amount of revenues collected with the municipality.
3. Fifty percent (50%) shall be allocated to pay for the implementation, operation and
maintenance, and the administration of Projects and Programs implemented through
Regional Programs.
Municipalities receiving the 40% direct funding (local return) have maximum flexibility to address
local stormwater and urban runoff challenges and opportunities. Funding can be used for eligible
activities such as project development, design, construction, effectiveness monitoring, operations
and maintenance, as well as other regional projects, programs and studies to protect and improve
water quality.
In FY 2019-2020, the District has collected the special parcel tax and is prepared to distribute after
the Transfer Agreement is executed, with an estimated annual revenue to the City of El Segundo
of $850,000. City staff are preparing the required annual plan to submit to the District and
anticipates to use half of the funds in the Dominguez Channel Watershed (area east of PCH) and
the other half in the Santa Monica Bay Watershed (area west of PCH). Municipalities shall be
able to carry over uncommitted funds for up to five (5) years from the end of the fiscal year for
larger projects the municipality may be planning. Any lapsed funds shall be returned to the District
to be reallocated to projects or programs that benefit that municipality or watershed area.
Staff respectfully recommends Council authorize the City Manager to execute the Transfer
Agreement between the Los Angeles County Flood Control District and El Segundo, Agreement

Municipal Program
Agreement No.: 2020MP26
EXHIBIT C — NATURE BASED SOLUTIONS (NBS) BEST MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES
Municipalities shall consider incorporation of Nature -based solutions (NBS) into their
projects. NBS refers to the sustainable management and use of nature for undertaking
socio -environmental challenges, including climate change, water security, water pollution,
food security, human health, and disaster risk management. As this environmental
management practice is increasingly incorporated into projects for the SCW Program, this
guidance document may be expanded upon to further quantify NBS practices based on
benefits derived from their incorporation on projects.
The SCW Program defines NBS as a Project that utilizes natural processes that slow,
detain, infiltrate or filter Stormwater or Urban Runoff. These methods may -include relying
predominantly on soils and vegetation; increasing the permeability of Impermeable Areas;
protecting undeveloped mountains and floodplains; creating and restoring riparian habitat
and wetlands; creating rain gardens, bioswales, and parkway basins; enhancing soil
through composting, mulching; and, planting trees and vegetation, with preference for
native species. NBS may also be designed to provide additional benefits such as
sequestering carbon, supporting biodiversity, providing shade, creating and enhancing
parks and open space, and improving quality of life for surrounding communities. NBS
include Projects that mimic natural processes, such as green streets, spreading grounds
and planted areas with water storage capacity. NBS may capture stormwater to improve
water quality, collect water for reuse or aquifer recharge, or to support vegetation growth
utilizing natural processes.
Municipalities are to include in each Annual Progress/Expenditure Report whether and
how their project achieves a good, better, or best for each of the 6 NBS methods in
accordance with the guidance below. Additionally, Annual Progress/ Expenditure Reports
should include discussion on any considerations taken to maximize the class within each
method. If at least 3 methods score within a single class, the overall project can be
characterized as that class. Municipalities must attach a copy of the matrix for each
project with the good, better, or best column indicated for each method, to facilitate District
tracking of methods being utilized.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The custodial services agreement with City's current custodial services provider, J & L Building
Maintenance Services (J & L), expired on July 31, 2020. During the COVID-19 pandemic and
consequent challenges, the City amended the contract a month-to-month extension for up to three
months, expiring on October 31, 2020. The current annual cost with J & L is $245,000.
In order to ensure that the City is receiving competitive rates and services, in February staff
released a Request for Proposal (RFP) seeking a three year term with two one-year optional
renewal terms for custodial services. Proposals were due on April 3, 2020. Seven firms responded,
of which six met the minimum qualifications.
In the first part of the review process a panel consisting of Senior Management Analyst (Public
Works), General Services Manager (Public Works), and Facilities Supervisor (Public Works)
reviewed each of the proposals and evaluated them based upon key criteria of the RFP, and
checked references; proposals ranged from $213,000 to $493,000.
The panel invited Valley Maintenance Corp., the top ranked proposer, to continue on to the
interview phase. The interview was conducted by the same panel members on June 22, 2020 in
City Hall, with the addition of the Interim Public Works Director. The interview consisted of
series of fifteen questions specific to the firm's proposal itself, transition phase, and follow up
questions on the answers received.
At the conclusion of the interview process, Valley Maintenance, Corp. remained as the top-rated
custodial services provider and the staff was confident they had selected the most qualified firm to
service the City buildings and facilities. To note, Valley Maintenance, Corp. was the Custodial
Service provider for El Segundo many years ago. The initial cost with Valley Maintenance, Corp.
is $213,000, which is $32,000 less than the current contract with J & L. Below are the estimated
costs for the next 5 years, which includes estimated 5% average annual CPI and minimum wage
increase annually:
Staff respectfully recommends the City Council to authorize executing a three-year with two one-
year optional renewals agreement with Valley Maintenance, Corp. to provide custodial services,
in a form approved by the City Attorney, with an initial annual cost of $213,000. With an estimated
5% average annual CPI and minimum wage increase per year, the total contract amount would be
$1,176,959.

ORIGINATED BY: Melissa McCollum, Director of Library Services MND
REVIEWED BY: Joe Lillio, Director of Finance -3AB
APPROVED BY: Scott Mitnick, City Manager VA �5�
BACKGROUND:
The City of El Segundo and El Segundo Unified School District seek to provide re -imagined
library services during the upcoming 2020-2021 school year due to the impacts of the pandemic
on school and library operations. The El Segundo Public Library is ready to support ESUSD
students, families, teachers, and administrators in either a virtual or hybrid learning environment,
and will adjust library services as needed throughout the year.
The revised service plan outlined in the amendment reflects a reduction of school library service
hours (2066 hours instead of 4800 hours) and service cost (City reimbursed by the ESUSD up to
$60,000 instead of up to $135,000) for FY 2020-2021. The City of El Segundo and ESUSD will
review school library staffing levels for FY 2021-2022 in May 2021. 12
93
DISCUSSION:
After consultation with ESUSD Superintendent Dr. Melissa Moore, the El Segundo Public
Library proposes focusing on providing school library services for Richmond Street School,
Center Street School, and El Segundo Middle School during the period of October 2020 — June
2021. The El Segundo Public Library will continue to support District Librarian Joanne Gen as
she takes the lead in providing school library services to El Segundo High School. Examples of
planned library services include:
• When full distance learning model is in place, delivering targeted library materials for
students and teachers via the Library to Go system at the Main Library, including school
library collection materials in response to teachers' requests.
• If/when a hybrid model is possible, the El Segundo Public Library can adjust to school
library material classroom book delivery if preferred by the schools. Classroom delivery
could consist of 2-3 dozen books on a topic or free reading based on grade level that
would be brought to the classroom to use and could be swapped out once a month, or as
needed.
• Maintaining and updating the school library book collections, selecting books to add,
remove and/or replace. Once circulation at school libraries resumes, checking books
in/out, issuing library cards, and answering parent questions about student accounts.
• "Book" a librarian for virtual services that could be delivered via web conferencing,
including book discussions or preparing print/digital resource guides for assignments
such as L.A. County Landmarks, famous painters, or animal reports.
• Providing additional recorded or live virtual programming, including storytimes (pending
copyright clearances), readers' advisory, and database and research instruction.
• Developing additional learning activities, including:
o Pairing mentor books that fit themes such as diversity, inclusion, hope and
resilience with activities such as writing prompts that could be shared in slide
shows
o Reading challenges where students can earn online badges using Beanstack (El
Segundo Public Library has a subscription) for tracking reading, submitting book
reviews, and completing activities such as reading a book from the perspective of
someone that doesn't look like them or recreating a book cover with items around
the house
o Sharing books, resources, or online reading passages to celebrate fun and
educational days
o Developing book brackets where students may vote on their favorite books,
authors or topics
o Encouraging students to write and share their own stories through zines, slide
shows, or videos

On May 31, 2020, the City Manager, acting as the City's Director of Emergency Services,
proclaimed a local emergency. The City Council ratified the City Manager's proclamation on June
2, 2020. The City Manager's proclamation and the Council's ratification was prompted by the
civil unrest that was occurring throughout Los Angeles County and the nation which had led to
injuries to persons and destruction of property. In fact, on May 30, 2020, Governor Newsom
issued a Proclamation of a State of Emergency for Los Angeles County and the City of Los
Angeles.
State law provides that the City Council must proclaim the termination of the local emergency at
the earliest possible date that conditions warrant. (Gov. Code § 8630.) Since May, the City
Manager, the Emergency Management Coordinator and the executive team have actively
monitored the civil unrest. Staff is of the opinion that the local emergency may now be terminated.
Staff have prepared the attached, proposed resolution terminating the local emergency relating to
civil unrest and request the City Council adopt it.

Administrative Order No. 1 to impose a curfew consistent with the County's
order;

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
When a local or state emergency is declared, the City's municipal code provides for the carrying
out of plans for the protection of persons and property within the City. In such emergency, the
City Manager serves as the Director of Emergency Services ("Director"). The Director is
empowered to, among other things, make and issue rules and regulations on matters reasonably
related to the protection of life and property, and to acquire equipment, materials, supplies and
services without following the City's standard purchasing procedures. However, such rules and
regulations must be confirmed at the earliest practicable time by the city council. (ESMC §§ 2-2-
5).
On July 16, 2020 the City Manager revised Administrative Order # 1 to comply with the revised
Los Angeles County Health Officer Order. The Administrative Order removes COVID-19
restrictions pertaining to restaurants, retail food facilities, and retail operations. The Administrative
Order enables businesses to apply for temporary encroachment permits to conduct business
outdoors. The Administrative Order waives fees for temporary permits associated with the order.
The Director requests the City Council ratify these decisions.

and enforce rules, regulations, orders, and directives, I hereby declare the following
orders to be necessary for the protection of life and property. This Order will take effect

REVIEWED BY: Joseph Lillio, Director of Finance r —
APPROVED BY: Scott Mitnick, City Manager WI
BACKGROUND:
There will be a representative from FilmLA providing a brief presentation about the services and
opportunities FilmLA offers to municipalities regarding promoting filming and economic
development in communities.
FilmLA is a 501(c)4 not-for-profit public benefit organization which coordinates the filming
processing for the City and County of Los Angeles, among a larger roster of local municipalities.
They provide a streamlined film permit process and production planning services along with a
comprehensive community relations and an extensive knowledge of the industry.
The City last updated its Motion Picture, Radio and Television Regulations (ESMC 4-11) in 2008,
El Segundo has been showcased in several movies, commercials and photo shoots since the early
1920's. Recently, the City has become even more popular for filming activities because it falls
within the Los Angeles "studio zone" as defined by the California Film Commission. (The studio 16
on;
zone is a 30 mile radius used by union film projects to determine per diem rates and driving
distances for crew members).
Issuing a Film Permit is a challenging process which encompasses several steps and requires
extended coordination between City departments, residents, the business community, and multi
agencies. Furthermore, filming activities are often scheduled simultaneously in the City and in
other jurisdictions around Los Angeles, in order to maximize crew schedules and meet filming
deadlines in a fast paced, ever-changing Southern California Filming Industry. Through their
successful business model and industry experience, FilmLA could possibly complement the City
of El Segundo's filming activities.
There are minor changes to the City's current Film Ordinance that FilmLA will briefly discuss
during the presentation. These changes are focused on enhancing the customer service experience
for filming produced in El Segundo.

Agenda Staff Report Agenda Heading: Staff Presentation
TITLE
Authorize City Manager to develop and issue: 1) Request for Proposals (RFP) from planning
consultants to update or replace Downtown Specific Plan, and, 2) Request for Qualifications (RFQ)
from developers to redevelop and repurpose Civic Center site.
RECOMMENDATION
Direct City Manager to develop and issue:
1. Request for Proposals (RFP) from planning consultants to update or replace Downtown Specific
Plan and prepare the necessary accompanying applications and documents, including a General
Plan Amendment, Zone Change, and Program Environmental Impact Report (EIR); and,
2. Request for Qualifications (RFQ) from developers to redevelop and repurpose Civic Center site.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will not be any direct costs to the General Fund for both of these projects. Indirect cost impacts
associated with staff time and use of an outside consultant (Kosmont Companies) will be absorbed via
the existing General Fund Budget. Updating or replacing the Downtown Specific Plan is estimated to
cost between $350,000 and $450,000 with funding coming from the General Plan Maintenance Fund
(not the General Fund). A future budget appropriation request will be made when a planning consultant
recommendation is presented to City Council.
CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE
Goal 5—Champion Economic Development and Fiscal Sustainability
Objective 5A—El Segundo promotes economic growth and vitality for businesses and the community.
City Council Top Priorities:
2. Identify further infrastructure and downtown improvements for Main Street.
3. Conduct a study of repurposing City Hall (Civic Center site)
Activities
10. "Re -imagine" the downtown, which includes developing a vision, beautification, promoting
the downtown, and creating a funding source for marketing it.

BACKGROUND
Historic Heart of the City
Downtown El Segundo has long been recognized as the historic heart and soul of the community. With
the continued shift of economic investment toward business centers east of Pacific Coast Highway and
south of El Segundo Boulevard, the downtown area has struggled. However, in recent years, the
downtown has exhibited signs of renewed investment and diversification of tenants. At this stage in
the City's evolution, there is a need for a more clear vision and cohesive strategic approach to land use
and development to ensure long-term sustainability of the downtown area.
Downtown Specific Plan
In 2000, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1319 which created the Downtown Specific Plan. Please
refer to Attachments A and B for vicinity and location maps of the Downtown Specific Plan area. This
document contained a ten-year vision for the future which included the following objectives:
■ Provide a better balance of uses.
■ Create a more thoughtful and creative use of public space.
• Organize creative and consistent programming of events and public activities.
s Create a consistent public-private partnership to market El Segundo's assets to investors and
customers.
■ Strengthen commitment to the strategic use of key parcels in the Downtown
• Create more attractive landscaping and street furnishings.
• Improve signage.
Over the past two decades, progress was made toward realizing this vision. Today, the downtown is
experiencing new life in some areas; however, not in all areas. At this time, it is appropriate to revisit
the Downtown Specific Plan to reevaluate its continued usefulness.
City Strategic Plan
The City's 2020-2022 Strategic Plan also addresses the need to improve the downtown area via
calling for:
a Main Street infrastructure improvements.
• Repurposing of Civic Center site.
• "Re-imaging" the downtown area.
Please refer to Attachment C for a map of the Civic Center site.

DISCUSSION
To address the need to update or replace the 20 -year old Downtown Specific Plan and direction
contained in the 2020-2022 City Strategic Plan, two actions are required at this time to simultaneously
perform these tasks. The first action is to begin the process of determining the future of the Downtown
Specific Plan. The second action is to review qualifications of potential developers and select one that
is capable of creating and implementing a new vision for the Civic Center site to serve as a catalyst for
the broader downtown.
Downtown Specific Plan
The Downtown Specific Plan has outlived its expected lifespan and is ready for a thorough
reconsideration. Selection of a planning and environmental consultant through a competitive RFP
process to work with City staff is needed to address the existing Downtown Specific Plan and reset the
vision and goals for downtown and adjacent C -RS zone. Consideration of a new zone will strive to
prioritize and preserve the positive gains over the past two decades with integrated land use and
circulation policies to assist the delivery of quality housing and commercial uses along with improved
mobility, fluid transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, and improved open space amenities. The
consultant will also assist with the preparation of other planning and environmental documents,
including a Program Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
Re-imagg Downtown, Repurposing Civic Center. & Main Street Infrastructure Improvements
Selection of a developer through a competitive RFQ process is needed to take the next step to focus on
the potential repurposing of the Civic Center site. The RFQ will be structured to elicit the necessary
information to determine which development partner would be optimal for a downtown investment
based on the City's understanding of the developer's approach, expertise, and financial resources
needed to effectuate an acceptable revitalization program. Based on recent economic challenges from
COVID-19, it is anticipated that the private sector will consider future real estate opportunities with an
adjusted perspective as to economically viable uses. Going forward, it is possible that the supportable
mix of retail, office, and residential land uses may shift. The RFQ provides the City with the ability to
engage the private sector directly as related to the Civic Center site.
This approach will encourage the development community to apply private sector market supply -
demand and investment return parameters as part of their assessment of what it views as viable for
downtown El Segundo. This will include the whole of downtown's land use zoning policy efforts and
will educate the City as to key private sector investment preferences related, but not limited to, density,
parking, height, design, building quality, and willingness to deliver new relocated public facilities, and
applying a possible Public/Private Partnership (P3) approach. The selected developer will be required
to engage the community through a series of public meetings and workshops. Ultimately, it will be up
to City Council to determine which of the proposed development components are acceptable to the
community.

DISCUSSION:
Recycled Water, Water, and Wastewater Rate Study
The City of El Segundo (the "City") provides water and sewer services to residential, commercial,
industrial, and institutional customers located within the City. City Council approved a contract with
Raftelis Financial Consultants to perform a long-term financial analysis of the existing water and
wastewater utility operations, to recommend policy setting objectives, and recommend any rate
adjustments for Fiscal Years (FY) 2020-2024. 18
127
The goal of the study is to ensure that the revenues cover the cost of services, meet reserve requirements,
and provide revenue for capital improvements.
Rate Design Criteria — Several criteria are typically considered in setting rates and developing sound
rate structures. The fundamentals of this process have been documented in a number of rate -setting
manuals. The most commonly referenced industry standard in California is the AWWA Manual M1.
The following is a simplified list of some of the broader attributes of a sound rate structure:
• Rates should be easy to understand from the customer's perspective.
• Rates should be easy to administer from the utility's perspective.
• Rates should promote the efficient allocation of the resource.
• Rates should be equitable and non -discriminating (that is, cost based).
• There should be continuity in the rate making philosophy over time.
• Other utility policies should also be considered (for example, encouraging conservation and
economic development).
• Rates should provide month-to-month and year-to-year revenue stability
The last water and sewer rate study was completed in 2014 and the basis of the study was to ensure that
the City could cover the cost of service as well as provide a revenue stream for capital improvements
that are paid with available funds and not financed. The recycled water, water and wastewater rates
were adopted for five years (2015-2019) with the last increase in July 2019.
Why do a rate study?
The City of El Segundo operates its water and wastewater utilities as a self-sufficient enterprise. The
City is committed to maintaining critical infrastructure and complying with all applicable laws, rules
and regulations to deliver safe, dependable and efficient recycled water, water, and wastewater services
to our customers. The City strives to maintain the affordability of these services. The City needs to
conduct a study of rates for these services in order to evaluate whether or not the City's water and
wastewater enterprise funds can cover rising costs as well as planned capital improvements to the
water and wastewater systems. The rate study will propose water and wastewater rates to ensure that the
utilities collect sufficient revenue to cover normal and emergency demands in accordance with federal
and state requirements, support operations and maintenance, fund its long term facility replacement and
capital improvement program, establish adequate retained earnings to respond to emergencies, and fund
ongoing repair and replacement of the water and wastewater systems to maintain reliable service in
future years.
One hundred percent of recycled water and potable water are purchased directly from West Basin
Municipal Water District. El Segundo has no local potable water resources available for use. The
average annual increase to purchase water from West Basin is anticipated to be around 5%-6%.
The collection and treatment of wastewater from all customer west of Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) is
serviced by Hyperion (City of Los Angeles). The City of L.A. has passed on rate increases totaling 91%
from 2017 through 2021 to the City of El Segundo. These rate increases were not included in the prior
rate study, and therefore not included in the current rate structure. The wastewater fund has been
depleting funds to cover the drastic increases imposed upon El Segundo customer at a pace faster than
anticipated in the prior rate study. This is resulting in a financially distressed wastewater fund.

Raftelis Financial Consultants will review the preliminary five-year financial plan for each utility
operation, review the proposed rate structures, and encourage feedback and open dialogue from
policymakers. A desired outcome of this presentation is to ensure a long-term financial plan can move
forward for the fiscal sustainability of the water and wastewater operations. The final financial plan will
be presented to City Council on September 1, 2020.

Constitution)
Rates need to be proportional to the service provided
Reflects the cost of providing services
No cross subsidy is allowed

Parameters
Recycled water purchased from West Basin Municipal
Water District
West Basin MWD operates non -potable system
Separate system from potable water system
Serves parks, golf course, Chevron, other small sites
City owns meters and does billing and collection
Cost of Recycled water is the West Basin MWD
recycled rate + City surcharge + meter charge
Proposed Recycled Surcharge
All recycled customers that have a meter will pay the
same meter charge as potable customers
Continue to charge $1.01 surcharge to Chevron
Surcharge should have the same percentage increase as
the potable water rate in the future
Surcharge revenue can be utilized to keep potable water
rates affordable
No surcharge for City and Non -City Customers (except
Chevron)

Requirement given Prop 218
3.0% increase each following January
Majority of increase is due to imported wholesale water
supply cost
Water Rates
There are three components of a water rate
Fixed charge
Recovers fixed water supply cost, cost of maintaining
meters, and customer service
Tiered width for Residential Customer
Aligns with water consumption pattern
Commodity Rate
Recovers the following costs: water supply, delivery, and

Rationality Behind Proposed
Tier Width
Given Prop 218 there needs to be logic behind the tier
definition
Tier I —Indoor usage (0 to 9 ccf per month)
Based on average winter consumption of 9 ccf per month
Tier 2 —Outdoor usage (10 to 13 ccf per month)
Based on average summer use of 13 ccf per month
Tier 3 - Above Tier 2
Justification of Tiered Rates
Water Supply from West Basin MWD
EI Segundo is 100% dependent on West Basin MWD
Delivery cost
Cost to meet average demand
Peaking cost
Cost associated with Peak Hour / Peak Day demand
Revenue offsets

Wastewater Operational Parameters
City operates and maintains the wastewater collection
system citywide
Wastewater treatment is divided by geographic region
between East and West
East side of PCH is serviced by LA County through the Joint
Water Pollution Control Plant in Carson
The County directly charges property owners for treatment
services
West side of PCH is serviced by the City of Los Angeles
Hyperion Water Reclamation Plant
The City of LA charges the City of EI Segundo directly for
treatment services
EI Segundo needs to recover this cost from the
associated customers
This cost is allocated between Residential and Non -
Residential customers
