Water Main Improvements on Indiana Street Project
October 20, 2020
Page 2 of 4
BACKGROUND:
Much of the City's water transmission and distribution system dates back to the 1920's
and some of the City's 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 problems over the past
few years. Staff evaluated its condition and determined that the segment between
Mariposa Avenue and Holly Avenue is in need of replacement due to its condition and
type. This water line is one of the few existing asbestos cement pipes which needs to be
replaced. This work was identified and approved in the adopted budget as part of the
Capital Improvement Program. The City Council adopted the engineering plans and
specifications for the Water Main Improvements on Indiana Street Project (Project) at the
August 18, 2020 Council meeting.
The improvements consist of replacing approximately 1,000' of 10 -inch diameter
asbestos water main pipe with new 10 -inch diameter ductile iron water main pipe along
Indiana Street between Holly Avenue and Mariposa Avenue. Further, the improvements
include replacement of service lines, grind and overlay the width of Indiana Street for the
limits of the project.
DISCUSSION:
On September 22, 2020, the City Clerk received and opened six bids as follows:
1.
Cedro Construction, Inc.
$481,716.80
2.
Colich & Sons, LP
$577,589.40
3.
GRFCO, Inc.
$592,018.00
4.
Williams Pipeline Contractors, Inc.
$644,733.20
5.
Murray Co.
$765,360.80
6.
T.E. Roberts, Inc.
$907,577.00
The lowest responsive and responsible bidder is Cedro Construction, Inc. Staff checked
the contractor's references and license status. They have satisfactorily completed similar
projects for other public agencies and their license is in good standing.
Staff noticed Cedro Construction's proposal had not been signed nor notarized. They
submitted a notarized signature page after the bid opening. Also, Cedro Construction did
not provide specific contact email addresses and telephone numbers for their listed
executive officers aside from the company contact address and phone number, and
Cedro Construction's shown bid of $481,716.60 on the bid documents was $0.20 less
than the actual bid amount. In consultation with City Attorney's office, staff investigated
23
Water Main Improvements on Indiana Street Project
October 20, 2020
Page 3 of 4
and concluded these minor discrepancies are inconsequential and do not affect the bid
order nor give the bidder an advantage over others.
Staff has not received any protest from any of the bidders regarding any of these minor
discrepancies. However, in an abundance of caution, staff recommends the following
items be identified as minor irregularities and be waived by the City Council:
1. Cedro Construction's notarized signature page on bidder and notarial
acknowledgement form was turned in after the bid opening.
2. Cedro Construction did not provide specific contact email addresses and
telephone numbers for their listed executive officers aside from the company
contact address and phone number.
3. Cedro Construction's actual bid is $481,716.80 rather than $481,716.60.
On September 17, 2020, Public Works staff received three proposals from NV5 Inc., MNS
Engineers, and Berg and Associates, Inc. for construction inspection services for this
project. The proposals were evaluated by staff and NV5 Inc. proposal was ranked the
highest based on their rates, qualification, experience and expertise. Further, NV5 Inc.
has successfully provided construction inspection services for similar projects. They have
been described as knowledgeable, experienced, thorough, and responsive by their
references.
Consequently, staff recommends City Council to approve the recommended actions as
noted. With Council's authorization, construction is anticipated to commence in January,
2021, and be substantially completed in April, 2021.
CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE:
Goal 1: Enhance Customer Service, Engagement and Communication; Embrace
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Objective A: EI Segundo provides unparalleled service to internal and external

BACKGROUND:
The Acacia Park playground is a well -used recreational area that mainly accommodates
the local residential community. From July 2017 through December 2018, the site was
closed to the public to allow for construction of City Sewer Pump Station #1 (Project No.
PW 16-07). The site was restored in March 2019 to allow for passive use of open space
while the City conducted community engagement workshops and the Recreation and
Parks Commission and City Council evaluated design and budgetary options for the park.
On March 13, 2019, the Recreation and Parks Commission recommended approval of a
final design concept which included the removal of the restroom and the outdoor pool.
On May 19, 2020, City Council adopted the engineering plans and specifications and
authorized staff to advertise this project for construction. On August 18th, 2020, based on
staff recommendation, City Council rejected all bids and directed staff to re -advertise the
project due to necessary revisions to the specifications.
DISCUSSION:
City staff revised the specifications, including removing the requirement of certified
installer and adding the synthetic turf playground material to the base bid instead of pour -
in -place rubber material as previously specified. On September 15th, 2020, the City Clerk
received and opened nine (9) bids as follows:

Although United Construction & Landscape provided the lowest bid, they did not submit
the Addendum which was issued during the bidding phase and consequently this bid is
non-responsive.
Response to CCA's Three Protests:
Furthermore, the third lowest bidder (Civic Construction Associates or CCA) protested
that the second lowest bidder (Land Forms Landscape Construction or LFLC) had minor
discrepancies: 1) submitted only a copy of the bid bond but not an original bid bond at
time of bid opening; 2) Conflicting information for company officer listing on the
Contractors State License Board (CSLB), Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) and
Secretary of State (SOS) database; 3) Failed to sign the bidder and notarial
acknowledgement form.
The City has responded to CCA's protest letters in detail. The protest letters and the
City's response letters are attached as attachment 4. The City responses are
summarized here:
In regards to the first item of CCA's protest, although the City requires the original bond
at bid opening, submittal of a copy of the original bond at the bid opening is part of the
common practice for public agencies that have adopted electronic bids. The purpose for
requiring an original bond is to ensure that the bond is authentic. LFLC submitted the
original bid bond within 48 hours of the bid opening, which "cured" the minor discrepancy.
The original bond submitted by LFLC matched the copy that LFLC submitted with the
proposal, so staff is satisfied that the bond is authentic.
In regards to the second item of CCA's protest, it is a minor discrepancy in record keeping.
The current two officers Luke Alvarado and Sandy Wallace bought the company from
company founder and longtime owner Jeff Tracy last year when they were still employees
of the company. All three are all still working together with the change ownership. Their
license is current and active. The change of ownership was sent to the CSLB but the
change is not yet reflected on the website. In any event, Jeff Tracy is the Responsible
Managing Officer (RMO) on the license and is still employed at the corporation. The
conflicting information on the DI and SOS website have since been, or will be, corrected.
CCA complained that LFLC cannot be held legally accountable due to the differing names
on the websites; however, City staff are satisfied that LFLC can be held accountable
regardless of the differing names on the websites at the time the bid was submitted.
In regards to the third item of CCA's protest, LFLC failed to sign the page and turned in
the notarial acknowledgement form after the bid opening. This is not uncommon and has
been waived by the City before as a minor discrepancy. In addition, staff discovered that
LFLC made a typo error on their bid form as their license number is 712339 and not
712338 on the bid form.

Staff Recommendation:
In consultation with City Attorney's office, staff investigated and concluded these minor
discrepancies are inconsequential and do not affect the bid order nor give the bidder an
advantage over others. However, in an abundance of caution, staff recommends the
following items be identified as minor irregularities and waived by the City Council:
1. A copy of the original bid bond was submitted at time of bidding and the original
bid bond was submitted after the bidding.
2. Conflicting information for company officer listing on the Contractors State License
Board (CSLB), Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) and Secretary of State
(SOS) database.
3. The Land Forms Landscape Construction's license number is 712339 instead of
712338 on the bid form.
4. Land Forms Landscape Construction's notarized signature page on bidder and
notarial acknowledgement form was turned in after the bid opening.
Therefore, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder is LFLC. Staff checked the
contractor's license status and references and found them to have satisfactorily
completed similar projects for other public agencies, and that their license is in good
standing.
Due to the high costs of the project, it is recommended to not implement the Alternative
Bid which is to remove and replace the wall along the western property line at the site.
LFLC's bid for this item is $99,528. The wall replacement is not essential and can be
constructed in the future when funding becomes available. The project doesn't need full
time construction inspection. The construction inspection will be performed by staff and
augmented by the City's on call inspector, if necessary.
Staff recommends that City Council approve the recommended actions as noted. With
Council's authorization, construction is anticipated to commence in January, 2021, and
be substantially completed in April, 2021.
CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE:

Re: Protest of 1`r and 2nd low bidders
For Project PW 20-06, Acacia Park Playground and
Site Improvements Project
Dear All,
This letter will serve as a formal protest for the Contract award of the above subject project to
the following:
1. United Construction and Landscape
9018 Balboa Blvd, #128
Northridge, CA 91325
United Construction and Landscape submitted bid a for $754,528.00 rendering them the apparent
low bidder. However, it was noted on the Bid result log that they failed to provide the required
signed addendum as per the following language on the bid documents:
"As evidence that the BIDDER has read this Addendum, the BIDDER must acknowledge
same in the space provided below and submit this Addendum with the Bid Proposal_
Failure to provide such acknowledgement shall render the bid as non-responsive and
subject to rejection.
Signature:
Date.
"Bids must be submitted in writing on the Proposal forms provided by the City of El
Segundo. One (1) set of these Proposal forms is inserted loose herein for use by the
bidders. Bidders are required to submit one (1) original set of the proposal
forms. All information requested therein must be clearly and legibly set forth in the
manner and form indicated".
36
If the addenda contains material terms that would impact the bidder's price, their understanding
of the schedule or the project, then failure to acknowledge the addenda will be considered a
material defect, and the bid should be rejected as non-responsive. The key factor in determining
the materiality of failing to acknowledge the addenda is whether it provides the bidder with an
advantage not enjoyed by other bidders.
The below are just a few examples of the addendum contents, clearly, it contains material terms
that would impact
"the bidder's price, their understanding of the schedule, or the project"
Thus, this author respectfully prays that the City of El Segundo rejects this low bidder for its
failure to acknowledge the addenda which is a material defect. Without this acknowledgement,
the bidder has failed to comply with the "Stated requirement" and could invoke a right that he
was not aware and that those items might be cause him to deny that portion of work and request
additional compensation.
3.5. Can we use the existing decomposed granite as backfill for the swimming pool or
does it need to be hauled off?
The decomposed granite will be acceptable as backfill at 2 -ft below grade or deeper.
3.6. Sheet 12 items 4 and 5 call for ADS N-12 HDPE storm drain line. Is SDR -35 storm
drain line acceptable?
Yes, SDR -35 storm drainpipe is acceptable.
3.7. Sheet CS5.00/1 shows a stepped footing. Where is this located on the plans?
The step detail provided on sheet CS5.00/1 is to be used at Contractor's discretion
based on the slope of grade and where required to meet minimum cover of 12" per
details on CS5.02.
3.8. Is a soil test available so that we can determine the structural integrity of the soils at
the retaining walls.
In 2017, the City of El Segundo reconstructed Sewer Pump Station 91 on the
southern edge of Acacia Park. As part of this work, a geotechnical study was
prepared, and was used as a reference when designing the retaining wall. The
geotechnical investigation is provided to this addendum as a reference document.

2. LANDFORMS LANDSCAPE CONSTRUCTION INC (There was no contact information provided,
so I am using this information and hope this is the correct Contractor)
15375 BARRANCA SUITE A-1 10
IRVINE, CA 92618
Business Phone Number:(949) 582-0877
Landforms Landscape Construction submitted a bid for $784,893.00, but only included a copy of
their bid bond and the apparent 2"d low bid.
In accordance with the City of El Segundo Bid Documents and Bidding instruction, the
following was noted.
"Bids must be submitted in writing on the Proposal forms provided by the City of El
Segundo. One (1) set of these Proposal forms is inserted loose herein for use by the
bidders. Bidders are required to submit one (1) original set of the proposal
forms. All information requested therein must be clearly and legibly set forth in the
manner and form indicated"
As you are well aware of the following, I am including these Citations for clarification and
justification for this protest.
A) In the case of a photocopy, the presence of the original crimped seal on the bid bond is
not sufficient to render the bond acceptable. While the raised corporate seal does
constitute evidence of the authenticity of a bond. In addition, a bid bond without the
original signature of its authorized representative can allow the opportunity for the
authorized representative to deny that [they] are bound to the bond.
Thus, the submission of a photocopied bid guarantee without original signatures rendered
renders "Landform Landscape Construction's bid nonresponsive, and is not a "minor informality
or irregularity" that may be waived or cured after bid opening.
In the age of electronic bidding, this docs not waive the original signature requirement because
the City of El Segundo elected to conduct its procurement using sealed bidding and delivery of
hard copies of bid proposal. Under the sealed bidding framework, bids are publicly opened, and
upon opening "must comply in all material respects with the invitation for bids". The issue of
the bid's compliance with the material terms of the invitation, i.e., the bid's responsiveness, must
be clear at bid opening. Public Works and Competitive bidding practices have long recognized
that permitting a bidder to correct an issue of responsiveness after bid opening would open the
door to manipulation of the competitive bidding system to permit a bidder to decide after bids
have been exposed whether to attempt to have its bid accepted or rejected. See Johnson Mach.
Works, B-297115, Oct. 20, 2005, 2005 CPD $ 188 at 3 (involving questionable bid guarantee).
:
In arguendo, Photocopy of guarantee documents, do not satisfy the requirement for a bid
guarantee since there is no way, other than by referring to the original documents after bid
opening, for the contracting agency to be certain that there had not been alterations to which the
Contractor or surety had not consented and could use as a basis to disclaim liability.
In these circumstances, the submission of a copy of the bid guarantee was not a correctable
minor informality and cannot not be cured by the submission of the original bond after bid
opening because this would essentially provide the bidder with the option of accepting or
rejecting the award by either correcting or not correcting any deficiencies, which is inconsistent
with the concept of procuring using sealed bids. TJ's Marine Constr. LLC, B-402227, Jan. 7,
2010, 2010 CPD ¶ 19 at 4.
When required by a solicitation (see above), a bid guarantee is a material condition of the Bid
Invitation with which there must be compliance at the time of bid opening.
Therefore, this Author respectfully prays that you reject this bid by the facts presents, but not
limited to these reasons only.
Thank you for your anticipated courtesy and much hoped for enforcement of the above non-
compliance.

Re: Protest of Award to Land Form Landscape
For Project PW 20-06, Acacia Park Playground and
Site Improvements Project
Dear All,
I'm sure you'll render this a minor irregularity. But as a taxpayer and advocate of Fair
and competitive bidding practices.
In my opinion , wouldn't you say that it's important to have the same officers on the DIR
Contractors Registry and the Contractors License No.-- 712339. We all hope that all
goes perfect on the projects relating to the Scope of work, Contract, Employment and
compliance with all the public works and contract laws. However, its not a perfect world
and the bottomline is accountability is every thing.
There is no accountability with the structure of your apparent low bidder. The
registered corporate officers cannot be held accountable for any Contractors License
law or Contract law because they are not doing the project. Then the licensed RMO's
on the contractors board cannot be held accountable for any violations of the
Department of Industrial Relations or the Secretary of the state because they are not on
the corporation. This is such a convoluted situation and not forgivable per legal, moral
or business law.
It is not a minor irregularity when one signs under oath that the information is accurate.
And as a matter of law, you cannot allow a correction after the fact.
And I'm just an ignorant lay person, so I would think that your City Attorney and Council
persons can justify more reasons for rejecting the bid.
W
Here is the summary of Land Forms organization
On the DIR Registration.
President: Luke Alvarado
CEO- Sandy Wallace
On the Secretary of State:
President: Luke Alvarado
CEO- Luke Alvarado
Secretary- Sandy Wallace
On CSLB-
CEO/President: Jeffrey Thomas Tracy (for c-27 License)
CEO/President: Jon Nelson Gllmer (for A license)
None of the true Officers that legally appear on the Secretary of State are on the
CSLB. And the parties on the DIR do not appear on the License. And in some case,
the same individuals have different titles depending on the agency. Ms. Wallace, does
not appear on the CSLB, but appears as a Secretary and CEO. Mr. Alvarado appears
as CEO and no where listed on the CSLB.
I take the DIR Registration for Serious. So when something goes wrong, who is
responsible?
I hope this information signed for "under perjury" is not viewed as a minor issue. I
spoke with the DIR, regardless if the CSLB # is the same. The responsible parties
should be on the Contractors License, that appear in the DIR. Afterall, the Licensure
dictates the veracity of any firm that contracts.
In closing, In my opinion, the time has come to decide, either the CSLB is not a legal
entity or the information on the DIR and SOS in false.

Re: Protest of Award to Land Form Landscape
3' Basis of urotest- Failure to sign most
important page -Bid Sheet and Qualification
For Project PW 20-06, Acacia Park Playground and
Site Improvements Project
Dear All,
As you are aware by my emails, I believe no one caught the fact that all contractors that submitted a bid signed
page IC6, with the exception of Land Forms Landscape. This signature represents the Bid sheets and
Qualification pages. In my opinion , a signature would be important and the fact that there is no signature, but a
notarization by the same internal individual is questionable . You should not waive this and suggest that the
contractor come in after the fact to sign it as you allowed the submission of the original bid bond. Which was
wrong, it did not matter that it was done within 48 hours, you did not have a condition for this to be allowed.
You chose to received original bid packets and it was not electronic bidding that does allow for this.
So too date, the rejection should be mandated on,
1. The original bid bond was not submitted (Although you waived this requirement)
2. The Officers that signed for the bid package are NOT listed on the Contractors License Board (the fact
that they are on the SOS is irrelevant, because anyone can register a corporation and name officers, but
that does not bona fide the CSLB requirement or make it a legal CSLB contractor entity.
3. Failure to sent a material and legal document to seal, sign and execute page IC -6 that is the entire basis
of the bid documents.
Thank you for your anticipated courtesy and much hoped for award to Civic Construction Associates as the low
responsible and responsive bidder.
Respectfully Submitted,

Citv resroiise to Protest items 42. #3. #4 and #5:
To clarify, the Officers of Land Forms Landscape Construction are as follows:
• Luke Alvarado is the President and CEO
• Sandy Wallace is the CFO and Secretary
• Jeffrey Thomas Tracy is a Vice President and "qualifying individual"
Responsible Managing Officer (RMO) for "C-27" license
• Jon Nelson Gilmer is a Vice President and "qualifying individual" RMO for
"A" license
• Anna Britta Tracy has submitted to CSLB a Dissociation Request
Land Forms Landscape Construction advised the City that a data entry error
was made regarding the titles on the DIR Registration page. The titles have
since been corrected on the DIR Registration page.
Land Forms Landscape Construction also has two "qualifying individuals" on
the CSLB corporate license. CSLB states that the "qualifying individual may
or may not be the owner of the business." The owners of Land Forms
Landscape Construction advised the City that they have previously filed
Application of Change to the CSLB to revise titles of the officers of the
company, but it has yet to be reflected on the CSLB website. Land Forms
Landscape Construction (an incorporated business in the State of California)
will be the business that is held accountable for the contract with the City.
The purpose of competitive bidding for public works contracts is to secure the
best work or supplies at the lowest price practicable, for the benefit of the City
and taxpayers, to invite competition, and to guard against favoritism,
improvidence, extravagance, fraud and corruption. The City has a duty to fairly
and reasonably administer the competitive bidding process to accomplish such
purposes, with sole reference to the public interest. To that end, the City has
discretion to waive immaterial deviations in a bid, so long as the deviation does
not, among other things, affect the amount of the bid, give the bidder an
opportunity to avoid its obligation to perform by withdrawing its bid without
forfeiting its bid security, or affect the City's ability to make bid comparisons.
(See, e.g., Ghilotti Const. Co. v. City of Richmond (1996) 45 Cal.App.4th 897.)
The City is satisfied that Land Forms Landscape Construction substantially
complied with the bid requirements and that Land Forms Landscape
Construction can be held accountable regardless of the differing names on the
DIR Registration page and the CSLB website. Thus, the City considers the
above discrepancies to be immaterial deviations in the bid.

Construction can be held accountable regardless of the missing signature.
Thus, the City considers Land Forms Landscape Construction's failure to sign
page I -C-6 to be immaterial deviation in the bid. In addition, bid opening was
on September 15, 2020, at 11:00 am. Notary signed page I -C-6 on September
14, 2020, 1 day prior to bid opening, and not 3 days late as stated in the bid
protest.
For the reasons set forth above and at an upcoming regular Council meeting, the
City of El Segundo staff will recommend that the City Council award the contract
to Land Forms Landscape Construction.
Please contact Cheryl Ebert at (310) 524-2321 or cebertt�7r elseaundo.or,-, for questions or

and hope that you will continue to monitor the City's website for future contracting
opportunities.

TITLE:
City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: October 20, 2020
Agenda Heading: Consent
Approve Purchase of 20 Mobile Digital Computers from Commline, Inc. for $113,000; and
FY 2020-2021 General Fund Budget Appropriation of $115,000 (total project cost will be
$213,000)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Commline Inc. for $113,000 to
purchase 20 Mobile Digital Computers (MDC's); and
2. Appropriate $115,000 from the Police Department Development Impact Fees to
purchase, install, and configure the MDC's.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A total of $113,000 for contract with Commline Inc. for purchase of hardware, including
computers and telescoping mounts. Funding sources are as follows:
$98,000 Equipment Replacement Fund
• $15,000 Police Department Development Impact Fees.
The estimated cost for the one-time startup, technical implementation and the first-year
maintenance of the MDC's is $100,000. These funds will come from the Police
Department Development Impact Fees.
Amount Budgeted: $98,000 (Equipment Replacement Fund)
Additional Appropriation: $115,000 (PD Development Impact Fees)
Account Number(s): 601-400-3101-8105 (Equipment Replacement Fund)
001-254-0000-1254 (PD Development Impact Fees)
BACKGROUND:
The Police Department Patrol Division, Animal Control and Parking Enforcement vehicles
are currently equipped with Panasonic Toughbook Mobile Digital Computers (MDC's).
The MDC system is an intrinsic in the field tool utilized in daily police work. Using the
MDC, police personnel can receive and close calls for service, use mapping and GPS
programs, complete records checks on individuals and vehicles, retrieve information
regarding specific locations located within the City, research DMV and licensing
compliance, and many other important communication functions. The current MDC
equipment has been deployed since 2012 and are due for replacement. These devices
cannot support current Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) technology,
Bluecheck fingerprint check hardware, nor can they provide a means for officers to submit

paperless reports from police units in the field. Staff recommends replacing the MDC's
with Getac K120 rugged dual purpose laptop/MDC devices.
PD and IT staff researched several computer options and identified the Getac K120 dual
purpose laptop/MDC as the best product suited for the needs and the most cost effective
solution. Competitive MDC quotes from Dell and Panasonic are also attached as well as
the survey results received from the officers who tested and evaluated the devices. The
Getac K120 product is a military grade rugged computer that has been proven to work in
support of military operations and police environments. This system is currently being
used by over twenty-five southern California police agencies that includes the San
Bernardino County Sheriffs Department, Riverside County Sheriff's Department, Orange
County Sheriff's Department, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Ventura County
Sheriff's Department, Santa Ana Police Department and numerous other smaller police
agencies similar in size to our organization.
DISCUSSION:
The Police Department recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager, or
designee, to purchase the Getac K120 dual purpose laptop/MDC's. This purchase will
be primarily funded from Equipment Replacement in the amount of $98,000. An
additional appropriation of $115,000 is requested from the Police Department
Development Impact Fees. If approved, it is also recommended these dual purpose
laptop/MDC's be placed on the Equipment Replacement schedule with a five-year service
life.

CITY OF
E L S E GU N D O City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: October 20, 2020
Agenda Heading: Consent
TITLE:
Amendment to the Supplemental Law Enforcement (Jail) Services Agreement No. 5793
with the City of Hawthorne to increase the contract amount from $7,500 per month to
$12,000 per month for five months ($22,500 total) for full-time jail services.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to the Supplemental Law
Enforcement (Jail) Services Agreement No. 5793 with the City of Hawthorne to increase
the contract amount from $7,500 per month to $12,000 per month for five months
($22,500 total) for full-time jail services.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The monthly contract amount will increase from $7,500 per month to $12,000 per month
over five months ($22,500 total). This will be funded through Police Department salary
savings.
Amount Budgeted: $22,500 (from salary savings)
Additional Appropriation: No
Account Number(s): 001-400-3101-4101
BACKGROUND:
Due to jail personnel vacancies at the EI Segundo Police Department (ESPD), in October
of 2019, City Council authorized the City Manager to contract with the City of Hawthorne
for supplemental jail services. This allowed for ESPD to book and house inmates, on a
part-time basis (several days a week), at the Hawthorne City Jail at an expense of $7,500
a month for an average of 25 arrestees per month.
DISCUSSION:
As a result of these jail personnel vacancies, and in order to properly evaluate potential
operational efficiencies, ESPD seeks to continue to book and house inmates at the
Hawthorne City Jail for an additional period of up to five months, beginning on or about
November 1, 2020. With this amended jail services agreement, ESPD will book at the
Hawthorne City Jail on a full-time basis (seven days a week), at a monthly expense to the
City of EI Segundo of $12,000. This fee was calculated using an average of 40 bookings
per month at a cost of $300 per booking to compensate for the booking and feeding of
prisoners by Hawthorne Police Department jail personnel. Booking inmates at the
Hawthorne City Jail on a full-time basis will allow ESPD to further assess the
supplemental jail services provided and evaluate the overall benefits incurred by the City.
Supplemental Jail Services by the City of Hawthorne
October 20, 2020
Page 2 of 2
At the conclusion of this five-month evaluation, staff will make a recommendation to City
Council to either enter into a long-term agreement with the City of Hawthorne for
supplemental jail services or to pursue alternative options.
Funds to pay for this contract will come from Department salary savings and will not result
in an increase to the PD budget.
ESPD staff therefore recommends the City authorize the City Manager to amend the
Supplemental Law Enforcement (Jail) Services Agreement with the City of Hawthorne.

for the City of EI Segundo to advance from Tier 1 (Widespread) to Tier 3 (Moderate) in
the "Blueprint for a Safer Economy" and allow the City to be measured independently

the California Department of Public Health, confirming receipt of the letter and indicating
that the Department is working on the response and will provide more detailed information
when the review is complete. Staff will continue to follow up with the Governor's office
and the California Department of Public Health, and will report to City Council when a

ESUSD Request for Waiver from Los Anqeles Countv Department of Public Health
EI Segundo Unified School District (ESUSD) is applying for a waiver to allow students in
grades TK -2 to return to school at Richmond Street Elementary and Center Street School
for hybrid in-person education. The City and ESUSD work closely together to provide the
highest quality education and services to EI Segundo students. For example, the EI
Segundo Public Library partners with ESUSD to provide services at four EI Segundo
school libraries, including Richmond Street Elementary and Center Street School. The
City and ESUSD meet monthly to promote collaboration and discuss joint City/Schools
issues and opportunities.
To support ESUSD and the EI Segundo community, staff recommends that City Council
approve letters of Support (attachments 2 and 3) for ESUSD to obtain a waiver to allow
TK -2 students to return to schools for hybrid in-person education.

RE: Request to advance the City of EI Segundo to Tier 3 in the Blueprint for a Safer Econ-
omy while being measured for our independent results
Dear Governor Newsom,
Scott Mitnick, On behalf of the EI Segundo City Council, we strongly urge you to consider easing COVID-19
City Manager restrictions from "widespread" to "moderate" for the City of EI Segundo. Our residents are con -
Mark Hensley, tinuing to do their part to slow the spread of the virus and the data shows that the City meets the
City Attorney metrics you established to take several steps forward in the Blueprint for a Safer Economy.
The City of El Segundo has a population of 16,716. To date, the Los Angeles County Depart-
ment of Public Health has reported 125 cumulative positive cases and one death for EI Segun-
Barbara Voss, do. We currently only have four active cases in our community. Based on the most current
Deputy City Manager health data, EI Segundo has a case rate of 2.55 and a positivity rate of 2.17%, which aligns with
the metrics needed to move to Tier 3 of your new reopening rules. By comparison, the entire
Joseph Lillio,
Finance jurisdiction of Los Angeles County reported a case rate of 9.6 and a 4.3% positivity rate.
Chris Donovan,
Fire Chief
Given the size and diversity of Los Angeles County, the City Council feels, as do many Los An-
geles County cities, that the COVID-19 restrictions are unnecessarily broad. There are too many
Donna Peters,
Human Resources
differences within the county to group all cities when measuring COVID-19 new case rates and
positive test results. For example, if you measure the South Bay of Los Angeles as a unit or oth-
Charles Mallory,
er regions within L.A. County, we are convinced that we would be allowed to move into the less
Information Systems
restrictive tiers much sooner than L.A. County. Meanwhile, many of our businesses are suffering
unnecessarily. We have demonstrated we can manage the protocol and restrictions effectively,
Melissa McCollum,
Library Services
so please allow us to be measured independently of L.A. County.
Sam Lee,
Planning & Building Safety We understand the need for a cautious reopening approach but suggest developing more tar-
geted measures to get cities and regions back as quickly and efficiently as possible. We can
Bill Whalen,
Police Chief help the county, and state, by adding incremental economic activity while not becoming hotspots or "COVID-19 tourist'
,
attractions.
Elias Sassoon,

Finally, while we support the need for COVID-19 restrictions, we would like to see measures that accurately reflect the
reality of our region, and other regions, within Los Angeles County.
EI Segundo is prepared and ready for movement into the less restrictive portions of the state's recovery framework.
As a result, the EI Segundo City Council respectfully requests that you allow us to move to Tier 3 in the Blue-
print for a Safer Economy while continuing to follow the state and county safety protocols and being measured
independently from Los Angeles County. We unanimously support this request and urge your consideration.
Thank you for your leadership. We look forward to your response.

E LS E G U N D O City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: October 20, 2020
Agenda Heading: Consent
TITLE:
City Response to Los Angeles County Civil Grand Jury Report Regarding "A Diet for
Landfills: Cutting Down on Food Waste"
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor to sign the City's formal response letter to the Los Angeles County
Civil Grand Jury Report regarding "A Diet for Landfills: Cutting Down on Food Waste" per
California Penal Code Section 933.05(f).
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are no direct fiscal impacts associated with responding to this Grand Jury Report.
Indirect cost of staff time will be absorbed via City's adopted FY 2019-2020 and FY 2020-
2021 Annual Budgets.
BACKGROUND:
On July 8, 2020, the City received a letter (Attachment 1) with a pre-release copy of the
2019-2020 Los Angeles County Civil Grand Jury Report entitled, "A Diet for Landfills:
Cutting Down on Food Waste" based on State mandates in AB 1826 (Mandatory
Commercial Organic Recycling) and AB 1594 (Compostable Organics Management).
Similar letters and reports were sent to all 88 cities, school districts, and various County
departments. The report is the result of the Civil Grand Jury's investigation from July 1,
2019 to June 30, 2020 into how the L.A. County disposes of its waste, and more
specifically, how it addresses one of its own diversion goals: reducing waste sent to
landfills by 80% by the year 2025, with a 75% reduction in the organic waste.
In the report, the Civil Grand Jury sets forth recommendations for the jurisdictions,
including having County -owned facilities "lead by example" in recycling food waste, and
a public education campaign around food waste that creates drop-off food waste centers
in more areas of the County and provides financial incentives — all of which require
participation and help from all 88 cities, school districts, and various County departments.
The Civil Grand Jury does not mandate actions. Rather, it makes recommendations and
suggestions.

A DIET FOR
LANDFILLS: Cutting
Down on Food Waste
r � r .�
CAL I F 0
2019-2020
Los Angeles County
Civil Grand Jury
A DIET FOR LANDFILLS:
Cutting Down on Food Waste
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
"Cutting food waste is a delicious way of saving money, helping to feed the world
and protect the planet. "
--Tristram Stuart, Environmentalist/
Food does not belong in the garbage. When edible, it can and should be consumed
(Appendix 1 and 2). Food waste is the largest portion of the "organic waste" stream
taken to landfills every year, instead of being separated and recycled for secondary
use.2 Diverting organic waste from landfills will significantly reduce methane gas
emissions, which have a negative impact on public health and contribute to climate
change.3
This Committee investigated how Los Angeles County (County) disposes of its waste,
and more specifically, how it addresses one of its own diversion goals: reducing waste
sent to landfills by 80% by the year 2025,4 with a 75% reduction in the organic waste
sent there.5
Organic waste --which also includes green/yard waste, nonhazardous wood waste, and
food -soiled paper6--makes up the largest portion of the garbage going to landfills.7
The State of California has mandated that all commercially -generated organic waste
must be diverted from landfills, and recycled.$
According to the County sustainability plan:9
"Most important to the growth of organics recycling is proper source
separation of waste. Any contaminated waste streams provide difficulties to
waste management and oftentimes deem waste non -recyclable. It is critical
that all LA County residents are educated on waste separation."

This separation of organic waste is an important component in sustaining an effective
recycling program. Once organic waste is properly separated (both from the rest of
the garbage, and by whether it's green or food waste), it can be processed through
composting or anaerobic digestion. 10
Within the County, the latest estimate shows that 1.9 million tons of food waste is
being sent to landfills each year, ] 1 with a per day estimate of 4,000 to 6,000 tons. 12 In
order for that to change, this Committee found that an adequate framework at the
grassroots level is needed. We discovered a labyrinth of ways that food waste
continues to end up in landfills, with many roadblocks standing in the way of fully
implementing the State mandate.
In addition, those residents, schools, and businesses committed to appropriate food
waste separation and recycling are often left to their own devices, unless their waste
hauler or jurisdiction offers this service. The Committee identified several
opportunities for supportive public policies that can incentivize and create avenues to
increase food waste recycling and organic waste diversion rates.

BACKGROUND
"People put their trash out, and I like to joke that they think the trash fairies picked it
up ... they don't know where it went ... they just want it gone. "
--waste management expert 13
Critical mass in the need for more effective waste management has been building for
years in the County. The year 2019 provided this Committee with two urgent reasons
to make changes when it comes to food waste separating and recycling.
1. Recvcle Markets Collalase. Sending More Waste to Landfills.
• In 2017, China announced it would no longer accept most of the mixed paper
and plastics shipped from the United States and other countries. 14
• Chinese officials pointed to "contamination" 15 as one of the reasons they were
not willing to take America's shipments. 16 All of a sudden, more material is
being landfilled instead of recycled, negatively impacting the County's
diversion rates. 17
• A City of Los Angeles official told this Committee that the result of the China
policy change is this: previously, the City received $1 million per year for the
recyclable materials it collected; now, the City pays $5 million per year in
order to have it processed. 18
• Landfills in the County will eventually reach capacity (Appendix 3).
• County officials are looking to organics recycling as a solution. 19
2. State Mandates Bic Chances in Organics Recvcline,
• The mission of the California Department of Resources Recycling and
Recovery (CalRecycle) includes increasing "the diversion of organic materials

5 "Recycling contamination is a significant issue. Contamination happens when items are placed in the incorrect system/bin. If
recyclables are placed in the appropriate recycling bin, but contain food remnants, the food can contaminate the bin and its
contents. Therefore, all the bin's content would need to be landfilled." Roadmap to a Sustainable Waste Management Future

away from landfills and toward the production of value-added products such as
compost, fertilizers, and biofuels."20
• Assembly Bill 1826 (Mandatory Commercial Organics Recycling) required the
following, as of January 1, 2019:21 all businesses and multi -family dwellings
with five units or more, generating four or more cubic yards of solid waste per
week, 22 must separate and recycle their organic materials.
■ As of January 1, 2020, Assembly Bill 1594 requires green waste to be diverted
from landfills for recycling in order to meet diversion goals .2' Otherwise, green
waste in landfills would be considered "disposal." Landfills use green waste as
Alternative Daily Cover, 24 part of operating a landfill.
• Failure to comply will subject the jurisdiction (whether County or a city) to
fines of up to $10,000 per day?5

to businesses, residents or both
4. Conducted on-site visits to the trash areas of some buildings in the County that
generate a large amount of food waste
5. Researched cities in the United States and in other countries that are separating and
recycling food waste
RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION
"In the year 2019, waste management should be more of a priority. We have the
conversion technologies available: anaerobic digestion, thermal conversion, etc....
there isn't any reason to throw anything in a landfill. "
--County waste management expert 26
Landfills
« Landfills are complex operations, with liners, rainwater collection, ground
monitoring, and gas collection 21 (Appendix 4 "Anatomy of a Landfill").28
"Landfills in California are the biggest belchers of methane," the potent
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) that contributes to climate change, according to a
2019 study by research scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena,
CA .29 Researchers used an airborne imaging spectrometer to show that 41
percent of emissions in the atmosphere came from landfills, while the dairy, oil
& gas industries contributed 26 percent each.30
« Methane, as described in the Countywide Sustainability Plan, "... is released
... by the decay of organic waste in landfills."31

Landfill managers showed us their onsite gas -to -energy system, which captures
methane and converts it into electricity that can be used by the facility or sold.
Several landfill operators expressed concern that their gas -to -energy operation
depends on the organic waste brought to the landfill.
Gas capture at landfills creates electricity and revenue for the landfill operator,
but also has economic and environmental disadvantages.32 State officials report
that even the best -managed landfills only capture 50% to 80% of the methane
gas generated.33
• Even closed landfills in the County may need to be managed for decades. 34
The South Coast Air Quality Management District held community meetings
in the fall of 2019 to alert residents in East Los Angeles about Cogen Landfill,
closed in 1959, which was now, 60 years later, showing elevated gas
emissions. 35 The County is planning to build a system for managing the
remaining methane gas emissions. 36
Per CalRecycle: "Diverting organic waste from landfills to compost facilities
and anaerobic digestion facilities, along with implementing food recovery
programs, will significantly reduce methane emissions from landfills, many of
which are located in or near disadvantaged communities. Reducing these
emissions will have beneficial impacts on climate and public health and will
result in avoided social costs. Social costs estimate the health and
environmental damage that is avoided by reducing GHGs [Greenhouse Gases],
as opposed to representing the cost of achieving the GHG reductions."37
• According to County officials, the demand for organic waste processing
capacity is currently being handled by existing facilities located both in and out
of the County. 38 However, looking to the future, County officials said there is
a shortfall when it comes to food waste recycling infrastructure, in particular,

Landfills we visited had a constant flow of trucks bringing in waste from
throughout the County; "tipping fees" were displayed at each front gate, letting
the waste hauler know the cost per ton for the material that was being brought
for disposal 40 A 2019 study by Harvard Law School41 pointed out that banning
organics from landfills can lead to a reduction in landfill hauling and tipping

Composting Facility
0 There are eight composting facilities and 12 facilities called "chip and grind";
all of them process green waste, not food waste. 56
Waste -to -Energy Facility
0 The County lists three facilities as providing Anaerobic Digestion, a process by
which organic matter, such as food waste or sewage, is broken down in the
absence of oxygen to produce biogas and biofertilizer.57 Only two process food
waste: the Joint Water Pollution Control Plant in Carson, and the Kroger Co
(Ralphs/Food4Less) facility in Compton which recycles food waste from its
own stores (around 300, from Bakersfield to San Diego).
This Committee found a patchwork system of managing food waste, whether
generated from businesses or residents. A consultant hired by the County to examine
the changes needed in order to build a strong organic recycling program identified 11
ways the County can do things differently, 51 including:
■ Getting elected officials more involved in supporting and endorsing change
• Reducing amount of food waste at the source (Appendix 6)
• Building more capacity at nine anaerobic digestion facilities that can process
food waste
• Simplifying the permitting process to increase food waste processing
■ Creating incentives to start diversion; offer subsidies; modify contracts
• Adopting ordinances for single family residences and apartment buildings with
less than five units, with a process that quantifies, monitors and enforces
■ Emphasize education and public outreachs9
"Los Angeles County is close to the largest agricultural production center in the world
and has many viable markets for organic materials ... There is strong statewide
policy, financial incentives to assist in the development of facilities, and state
incentives for the marketing and sales of the by-products of organic waste recycling
(like compost and mulch) ... However, the biggest disincentive may be the status quo,
which is less costly to rate -payers and provides for significant revenue for collection
and disposal companies."60

"...at the end of the day, public agencies ultimately control solid waste and how it is
handled. Cities and counties are already sending clear signals to their service -
provider haulers on what types offacilities and programs they need to meet new
legislative mandates. "61
Food Waste Recvcling Examnles Throughout the Countv
• In the unincorporated areas of the County, a few businesses currently subscribe
to food waste collection services, including four supermarkets that are enrolled
in the County's pilot food waste diversion program.62
The County's Department of Public Works headquarters in Alhambra serves as
a good model for other cafeterias: food waste generated at the employee
cafeteria is separated from other trash, composted in special containers outside
the cafeteria, with the resulting compost used to provide nutrient -rich cover to
the onsite garden (Appendix 7). Good signage and ongoing employee training
are vital to this process.
For those businesses separating food waste and having arranged its pickup by
their waste hauler, the food waste is taken to the Puente Hills Materials
Recovery Facility (MRF). The Committee observed that this was a small pile
in a corner of the massive facility (Appendix 8). Food waste material arrives
from restaurants, grocery stores, and other businesses from the following
cities: Arcadia, Baldwin Park, Gardena, Glendale, Industry, La Verne, Long
Beach, Los Angeles, Pasadena, Pomona, San Dimas, and Santa Fe Springs. In
addition, some commercial businesses in the unincorporated communities of
Hacienda Heights and Rowland Heights have made arrangements to have food
waste processed at this facility, according to an official at the Sanitation
Districts of Los Angeles County (the Districts).63
At the Puente Hills MRF, a bio separator turns the food waste pile into a type
of "slurry" that will then be taken to the Districts' wastewater treatment plant
in Carson. 64 Digesters at the Carson plant use sewage material to turn the food
waste slurry into a biogas that provides electricity to the plant, and provides
compressed natural gas (CNG) for vehicles that pull up to fuel.bs

• City of Los Angeles --A City official mentioned several pilot programs that
deal specifically with food waste: 66
➢ some food service employees at LAX have been trained to separate
food waste from the trash 67
➢ 522 homes in the Westchester area have been given special garbage
disposals (In -Sink Pilot) that can break down certain food waste for
processing at the Hyperion Water Reclamation Plant68
➢ an upcoming pilot planned for 18,000 homes, that will allow food
waste to be placed in the green bin for weekly curbside pickup 69
a Manhattan Beach --Since 2015, the city has offered food waste curbside
pickup and recycling to all its businesses and residents, at no extra cost to
them.
➢ The city contracts with Waste Management for its waste hauling needs.
Food waste is taken to the company's CORe food waste recycling
facility in Orange and turned into "slurry."
➢ The material is then transported to the wastewater treatment plant in
Carson.
➢ Manhattan Beach residents are billed in a Pay -As -You -Throw system, 70
where 100% of the cost is dependent on the weight of the grey -color
bin, which is for regular trash.71
Culver City --The city uses its own city staff for waste collection, 72 and
contracts with Athens Services for the food waste that is placed in the green
bins, along with yard waste to be recycled at its composting facility in
Victorville (American Organics), according to a city official."
➢ Once a year, Athens brings Culver City 20 tons of the compost material
and the city gives most of it away to residents as a gift for gardens. 74
➢ "It is the best -smelling stuff you can imagine, it is so earthy and high-
end as a nutrient for the soil," one city official told us. "Our gardeners
love it."

Schools in Los Angeles County
• Every school in the 80 school districts in the County has excess edible food
and food scraps going to landfills, and County health officials have developed
strategies that can help. 93 Cal Recycle also encourages each school district to
work with its contracted waste hauling company to implement organics
recycling on campus. 94
The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the second-largest school
district in the country,95 has a waste hauling contract with Republic Services. 96
This Committee could not find a provision for systematic food waste
separation/recycling; the only two bins observed at randomly selected schools
were a large blue dumpster and a black dumpster in parking lots.

• LAUSD throws away 600 tons of food waste each week, at a cost of at least
$100,000.97 In 2017, Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law that allows campuses to
collect unopened items and untouched fruit and donate them to food banks. 98
In addition, there is a program called Share Table (Appendix 6) where
unwanted items can be safely offered to those who want them.
• In Los Angeles County, an estimated two million people face food insecurity. 99
Education officials interviewed by this Committee spoke about some LAUSD
schools, where children as young as preschool -age learn about separating food
waste, and teachers and volunteer parents use a compost bin onsite in order to
"feed" the school garden. 100 However, several education officials stated that
many schools do not recycle food waste, and the dumpsters are only for trash
and recyclables.
Aside from a school garden increasing healthy eating habits in children,101 the
care and maintenance of a garden teaches students about food waste and
composting. A County official told this Committee that a garden on every
campus would need institutional support from top leadership in order to be
sustained. 102
• A County health education official expressed frustration that nutrition
education is getting short shrift at schools and recounted a health insurance
executive stating: "We keep seeing kids with Type II diabetes, who don't know
the difference between a protein and a carbohydrate." 103
A survey sent to all school districts by the County Department of Public Health
in 2019 to assess food waste on the 2,206 campuses in the County got a 50%
response rate, according to a County health official. 104 A preliminary look at
the results showed a wide variety of recommended strategies being used to
reduce food waste: from "Offer vs. Serve," to using the Share Table idea. 105
Only 3% of schools reported composting food scraps onsite or offsite,
according to the County health official.

Obstacles for those who want to recvcle food waste.
Even when restaurants WANT to separate and recycle food waste, they are
thwarted: the waste hauler takes it to a landfill anyway (Sweetgreen
example)'"
• Cafeterias located in some buildings owned and/or managed by the State (case
in point, the cafeteria on the ground floor of the Clara Shortridge Foltz
Criminal Justice Center in Downtown Los Angeles)109 do not have any visible
mechanism for separating/recycling food waste, according to numerous
Committee visits per week over a period of several months. According to an
interview with a cafeteria employee on November 15, 2019, the only product
recycled is cooking oil.
The Committee also interviewed a waste expert familiar with the workings of
the Clara Shortridge Foltz building who said food waste collected from the
cafeteria, as well as waste that ends up in the large dumpsters in the loading
dock area of the building, is probably going to a landfill.110 "There is just so
much contamination in the bins," the expert told our Committee. "It's cheaper
and easier for companies just to take it to a landfill. All staff would need
training about separating in order for organics recycling to work." Committee
members visited the loading dock area on October 15, 2019, and observed
seven large dumpsters, most filled with trash bags that appeared to be unsorted,
and blue recycling -designated dumpsters empty and off to the side.
■ The expert, who is also familiar with waste collection in the Downtown Los
Angeles area, told our Committee that all large companies and agencies in the
area are encouraged to recycle food waste, but few do. Waste hauling
companies that collect trash have to pay to dump the trash, and they "have to
pay more to dump organics, so there needs to be more of an incentive" to get
properly -sorted waste to its proper destination.' 11

This Committee identified a food vendor company called LunchStop,112 which
offers franchisees the opportunity to operate employee and other types of
cafeterias"' in the County. Some are in courthouses (such as the one in
Pasadena' 14 and the one at the Edmund D. Edelman Children's Court'") with
no visible food waste recycling option that our Committee could determine.
• While many courthouses in Los Angeles County are under the jurisdiction of
the State (Judicial Council of California), most cafeterias in these buildings are
inspected by the County Department of Public Health.' 16
Even in some buildings or facilities where the County has jurisdiction, the
cafeteria vendor does not appear to offer food waste separation/recycling, e.g.,
at the cafeteria operated by a LunchStop franchisee in the Hall of
Administration,' 17 where the County Board of Supervisors meets. Our
Committee also learned that there is no separation/recycling of food waste at
the Hollywood Bowl,' 18 where the County has contracts with other food
vendors. 119
• Some employees at businesses that have special bins throughout the store
(Target, Costco, etc.) with special signage to collect food waste told this
Committee that those bags are thrown into the regular trash bin in the back. `0
For some managers of large facilities in the City of Los Angeles, there seems
to be no cost savings in taking on the issue of food waste. In fact, there is an
added cost for the trouble of separating out food waste and training staff,
several managers told this Committee. 121
• During the course of our investigation, the Committee found that for those who
do not live in a city that offers food waste recycling options, residents are left
either to do backyard composting themselves, or throw food waste in the trash.

In the city of Los Angeles, for residents, it doesn't matter how much trash you
generate, the cost is the same, according to the bimonthly bill many of our Jury
members receive every month. Residents are charged a flat Solid Resources
Fee (SRF) that is applied to the City's Clean Water, Solid Resources, and
Watershed Protection.' 22 The fee funds the collection of solid waste, landfill
costs, and a numerous list of associated costs. "Since the Solid Resources Fee
funds more than just refuse collection, the fee is still applied—even if your
dwelling produces little, or no, refuse waste,"' 23 according to the City's LA
Sanitation website.
a A City official stated, "it's hard for people to separate food waste; it can be
smelly; where do you keep it, etc. We're working on a good way to do it. We
have pilot programs." 124
This Committee found strong interest from residents and businesses
interviewed. For those residents who are already committed to food waste
separation and recycling (whether from their single-family house, or
apartment), the only option our Committee found was LA Compost: 125
➢ a nonprofit organization that has a drop-off booth at several weekly
farmer's markets
➢ relies on volunteers and donations
➢ operates several hubs throughout the City where residents can drop off
their food waste 126
➢ in January of 2020, before the Covid-19 Pandemic, only eight of the 32
hubs were open due to growing demand, and not enough capacity 127
➢ during the pandemic, LA Compost continued accepting food waste
drop-offs at one of the 26 community gardens throughout the City, and
volunteers said that every Sunday, there was a constant stream of
people

Many college campuses in the County have ongoing sustainability initiatives:
➢ Cal State Northridge --dining services staff collects kitchen plant food
waste and uses it for composting in its garden on campus.128
➢ Occidental College in Eagle Rock --students have begun composting
programs for food waste, but continue to find it challenging to sustain
the program as students graduate. 129 In 2016, the campus contracted
with waste hauling company Athens Services to have food waste taken
to the company's composting facility in Victorville.130
➢ Students whose home cities, like Seattle, have curbside compost pickup
programs express surprise that fellow students are not as diligent about
food separation/recycling.131
• The County's Department of Public Works has identified nearly 200 facilities
where organic waste should be separated and recycled, from cafeteria kitchen
food prep areas ("back of house"); cafeteria dining areas, lunch rooms,
employee workstations, landscaping.' 32 Educational material has been
provided, and compliance is encouraged, according to County officials. 133
However, County officials said they don't know how many of the identified
entities are meeting the mandate, which requires organic waste recycling as of
January 1, 2019,134 and that more action may be forthcoming once the State
outlines regulations around the $10,000 fine per day. A random check by our
Committee calling and visiting a few of the facilities, in conjunction with our
conversations with waste haulers, leads us to believe that there is room for
improvement in implementing organic waste recycling in these facilities.

COVID-19
The pandemic provides an opportunity to reimagine how things can be, and our
Committee was pleased to see the word "waste" in the mix in an article published
on May 13, 2020, in the Los Angeles Times: 135
Gov. Gavin Newsom appointed Tom Steyer, a billionaire former hedge fund
manager turned climate change activist, to co-chair his Task Force on Business
and Jobs Recovery. Twenty state lawmakers signed a letter last month to
Steyer and Newsom's chief of staff, Ann O'Leary, urging the governor's office
to consider recovery investments that prioritize "clean economy job creation."
The letter reads, "We know the clean economy — transportation, housing, energy,
water, manufacturing, waste, and natural and working lands — is one of the most
cost-effective, resilient job creation sectors economy -wide."
RECOMMENDATIONS
This Committee recommends a public education campaign around food waste that
creates drop-off food waste centers in more areas of the County and provides financial
incentives, as well as County -owned facilities "leading by example" in recycling food
waste—all of which require a little help from our friends.136
We recommend:
1.1 Each of the 88 cities, and the County's unincorporated areas, should establish a
weekly food waste drop-off center. The center can be at a farmer's market, such
as the one held each Thursday near Los Angeles City Hall, or at another
appropriate site. City and County officials can arrange for the food waste
collected to be taken to a nearby facility for recycling, or can establish contracts
with organizations such as the Los Angeles Community Garden Council or
landscaping companies for composting.
1.2 County officials should initiate programs using composting technology (such as
Compostology137 or Earth Cube13') that can compact food waste and can be
easily installed in offices and schools.' 39

19
118
1.3 County and city officials should create an incentive program for residents and
businesses to separate food waste. This could be in the form of a gift card to a
local grocery store/farmer's market, or a discount on a solid waste fee. For
example, in the city of Santa Barbara, 150 businesses (restaurants, grocery
stores, coffee shops, etc.) have signed up for the city's Foodscraps program, and
can save several hundred dollars a month off their trash collection fee. 140
1.4 County officials should work with community colleges and workforce training
programs, to increase classes about food waste recycling and careers in waste
management that focus on diversion and conversion technologies.
1.5 County officials should create a garden/compost program at Pitchess Detention
Center in Castaic and investigate the option of a garden at some or all of the
juvenile detention facilities.
1.6 The County Department of Public Health should develop a program to train its
300 food inspectors as "ambassadors" when they are in the field. The inspectors
need to be armed with the Food DROP brochure, 141 as well as information about
how that establishment can safely separate and recycle any food waste. (This
recommendation is also for Long Beach and Pasadena, which have their own
Public Health departments.)
1.7 The County Department of Public Health should take the lead in creating a food
waste education component as part of its permit process required for all outdoor
public events that will be serving food. Department officials can work with the
event manager ahead of time to plan for excess edible food donation, and for
how food waste will be collected and separated. (This recommendation is also
for Long Beach and Pasadena, which have their own Public Health
departments.)
1.8 County officials should modify contracts with food vendor companies that are
inside County facilities, such as the Hollywood Bowl, the Arboretum, the Los
Angeles County Museum of Art, and cafeterias located at County hospitals, to
include food waste separation and recycling. Especially at the Hollywood Bowl,
which draws more than 17,000 people142 for most of its summer concert events,
has several food options onsite,' 43 and traditionally draws large pre -concert
picknicking crowds, implementing a food waste recycling program can be part
of a public education campaign.

119
1.9 The County Board of Supervisors should require that the vendor operating the
Hall of Administration cafeteria institute procedures to separate food waste, both
in the food prep area, and in the dining room.
1.10 The City of Los Angeles should partner with LA Compost to expand that
organization's footprint in the city to increase its capacity to collect and compost
food waste.
1.11 The City of Los Angeles should work with its 99 Neighborhood Councils to
increase public education around food waste separation/recycling programs.
1.12 All 80 school districts located in the County should work with local public
works and health department officials to create a garden and compost program
in every school, 144 and monitor edible food recovery efforts. 145
1.13 All 80 school districts should develop a garden/compost program that can be
available for students in the myriad after-school daycare options available on
campus (LACER, After the Bell, STAR, etc.).
1.14 Elected officials in the County and cities should adopt the 11 suggestions in the
March 2018 Countywide Organics Waste Management Plan' 46 and express
support for the need to increase capacity and site and build new facilities to
handle organic waste.

Green Waste Pick-uo and Recycline options available in Countv Unincorporated
Areas (CUC)
• The County's Department of Public Works oversees the waste hauler
agreements for the 125 unincorporated areas, 152 which include Altadena,
Hacienda Heights, and Marina Del Rey. About 1 million people live in those
areas; the "Mayor" of each area is the corresponding member of the County
Board of Supervisors.' 53
• Many franchise waste haulers offer separate collection and recycling services
for green waste. 154 Some waste haulers offer one solid waste bin for mixed
refuse for commercial clients. The mixed waste is hauled to a material
recovery facility where some things may be diverted from a landfill, unless
there is too much contamination. 155
• Landscapers can deliver green waste generated from their operation to
processing facilities that specifically recycle green waste. Currently, there are
over 100 facilities in Los Angeles County and nearby counties that accept
green waste generated in Los Angeles County. 156
• In 2018, Public Works consultants visited over 70 multi -family complexes and
found that only a few generated more than 1 cubic yard of green landscape
waste. 157
• The various waste haulers serving residents in the CUC are required to provide
three separate bins: one for trash, one for recyclables, and one for green
waste. 158
Green Waste Pick -un and Recvclin! Ontions Available for City of Los Angeles
The State's most populous city, Los Angeles, manages its waste through the
LA Sanitation Department. 159 For approximately 80,000 businesses and multi-
family complexes, the City of Los Angeles is divided into service areas and
assigned a waste hauler under the RecycLA program. 160 The program assigns
seven waste haulers to 11 zones in the City.' 61

• Green waste is taken to Griffith Park, where it's mixed with zoo doo (collected
from herbivores at the adjacent Los Angeles Zoo) and biosolids (sewage
products). 162 The Griffith Park Composting Facility makes a final compost
product that is used throughout the park, and for the City's Free Mulch Give -

• The mulch produced by the City is registered and trademarked as Topgro ®;
the City gives its Department of Recreation and Parks half the compost
created, and the rest is sold to private entities such as landscape companies. 163
• Residential customers in the City are provided three bins for separating items
for trash day:' 64 one for trash, one for recyclables, one for green waste (no food
waste can be placed in this bin as it would contaminate the green waste); an
extra bin for horse manure is provided for a nominal fee.165

Edible Food Recovery
In 2018, the County Department of Public Works launched the Food Donation
and Recovery Outreach Program Food DROP website (www.FoodDROPLA.
com) to provide resources for businesses in the unincorporated communities to
safely donate excess edible food and reduce food waste. In addition to federal
Good Samaritan laws that can provide legal protection, donating edible food
can possibly provide a tax deduction.' 66
« In 2018, the County's Smart Business Recycling Consultants visited over 130
large food service establishments to survey how they currently manage
organics and recyclables and to connect these businesses with local charities to
donate edible excess food. Twenty-six businesses indicated that they donate
edible food. 161
■ Organizations like Food Forward 168 last year collected 26 million pounds of
edible food from various companies. 169 The organization's four 26 -foot trucks
pick up produce that otherwise would go to waste and distribute the bounty to
agencies serving the needy from Santa Barbara to the California -Mexico
border. Staff pick up excess produce from the largest produce market in the
United States, located in Downtown Los Angeles, and nearby produce houses,
as well as farmer's markets. Volunteer teams also are sent to pick residents'
backyard fruit and distribute to food pantries.
« Companies like Imperfect Produce 170 ship boxes of imperfect -looking fruits
and vegetables, and packaged food that has been rejected for cosmetic reasons.
« There are many websites available to help residents who want to reduce food
waste in their kitchens
✓ www.savethefood.com
✓ www.cawrecvcles.org (Californians Against Waste)
• For the K-12 school environment in Los Angeles County, the County
Department of Public Health has developed resources to help each campus

The Department reported that, in
2018, its food waste reduction
practices in the cafeteria prevented
over 300 pounds of food waste
from being generated, and did not
generate any leftover food for
donation.
In addition, almost 18,000 pounds
of food waste was collected from
the cafeteria kitchen, dining area,
break rooms, and special events
and sent to be recycled at an
anaerobic digestion facility. An
additional 1,200 pounds of food
waste from the cafeteria kitchen
was composted on site in the worm
bins (see picture below).

Matthew Robinson, As requested on July 8, 2020, the City of El Segundo has reviewed the attached 2019-20
City Treasurer Los Angeles County Civil Grand Jury Report on landfills and its official response to the
applicable "Recommendations" and "Suggestions" are as follows:
Appointed Officials Grand Jury Recommendation 91.1 (Page 19)
Scott Mitnick,
City Manager
"Each of the 88 cities, and the County's unincorporated areas, should establish a weekly
Mark D. QyAtt rneysly'
food waste drop-off center. The center can be at a farmer's market, such as the one held
each Thursday near Los Angeles City Hall, or at another appropriate site. City and
County officials can arrange for the food waste collected to be taken to a nearby facility
Department Directors
for recycling, or can establish contracts with organizations such as the Los Angeles
Barbara Voss,
Community Garden Council or landscaping companies for composting. "
Deputy City Manager
Joseph Lillio,
City of El Segundo Response:
Finance Director
Chris Donovan,
This recommendation has not yet been implemented, but will be implemented in the
Fire Chief
future, with a timeframe mentioned below for implementation. The City, in conjunction
Donna Peter,
with EDCO, City's residential and Civic services hauler, will establish a weekly food
Human (Interim) Resources Director
waste drop-off center at the farmer's market held each Thursday on Main Street. The
City believes the best time to begin this implementation is summer of 2021 due to the
Charles Mallory,
COVID-19 pandemic. The City also intends to focus its resources on implementing SB
!T Director
1383 food waste diversion requirements by January 2022; namely that collection of food

generators. Collecting food waste diversion from commercial and residential generators

is more likely to be more effective than regional drop-off centers.

City of El Segundo Response Letter

Grand .lury Recommendation #1.3 (page 20)
"County and city officials should create an incentive program for residents and businesses to separate food waste.
This could be in the form of a gift card to a local grocery store/farmer's market, or a discount on a solid waste
fee. For example, in the city of Santa Barbara, 150 businesses (restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, etc)
have signed up for the city's Food scraps program, and can save several hundred dollars a month off their trash
collection fee. "
City of El Segundo Response:
This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted and is not reasonable. The City does
not have the resources and the financial means at this time to implement this program. Starting in January 2022,
collection of food waste will be required of all residences, multi -family properties, and covered commercial
generators under SB 1383. Should the County create any incentive program, the City will gladly support the
County's program. The City is required by the State to have organic waste recycling systems in place by January
1, 2022 and begin enforcement actions of the systems beginning January 1, 2024. The final ruling for SB 1383 is
still in development. The City's process will be in place to meet the deadlines set by the State.
Grand Jury Recommendation #1.8 (page 20)
"County officials should modify contracts with food vendor companies that are inside County facilities, such as
the Hollywood Bowl, the Arboretum, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and cafeterias located at County
hospitals, to include food waste separation and recycling. Especially at the Hollywood Bowl, which draws more
than 17, 000 people for most of its summer concert events, has several food options onsite, and traditionally
draws large pre -concert picnicking crowds, implementing a food waste recycling program can be part of a public
education campaign. "
City of El Segundo Response:
This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted and is not reasonable. This
recommendation is directed towards County officials. The City of El Segundo has no control over County facilities
referenced, nor does it have large facilities mentioned in the recommendation.
Grand ,1ury Recommendation 41.14 (page 21)
"Elected officials in the County and cities should adopt the 11 suggestions in the March 2018 Countywide
Organics Waste Management Plan146 and express support for the need to increase capacity and site and build
new facilities to handle organic waste. "
City of El Segundo Responses to following 11 County "Suggestions":
Suggestion 1: Commercial Recycling Ordinance
This suggestion has been implemented. The City adopted a Commercial Recycling Ordinance in 2019 with AB
341 and AB 1826 recycling requirements for businesses and haulers. State regulations for implementing SB 1383
organics diversion are currently being finalized, after which the State will release model ordinance language for
consideration by jurisdictions later this year.

Suggestion 2: SFR Recycling Ordinance
The suggestion has been implemented. In 2019, the City adopted a source separated a commercial organic waste
recycling ordinance (AB 1826) for single-family residential dwellings and multi -family residential dwellings. It
incorporated Food Waste as part of organics and food waste along with greens to be placed in the Green bins.
Organics are defined as: Food waste, green waste, landscape and pruning waste, nonhazardous wood waste, and
food soiled paper waste that is mixed in with food waste
Suggestion 3: Self -Haul Standards
The suggestion has not yet been implemented, but will be implemented in the future, with a timeframe for
implementation. The City is currently establishing standards and requirements for self -haul landscapers to
implement a self -haul identification program, where businesses that self -haul any recycling or organic material
(including multi -family properties that utilize the services of a landscaper) will be required to provide documentation
to the City that effect. The City will have the standards in place by January 2021.
Suggestion 4: Flow control to direct material collected to qualified processing or composting facilities
This suggestion will not be implemented because it is not warranted and is not reasonable. The permitted hauler
collected organics are delivered to facilities with the ability to process materials.
Suggestion 5: Contract Modification
This suggestion has been implemented. The City has a new Franchise Agreement for Single Family residents with
automated three cart requirements (gray for general refuse, blue for recycled materials, and green for organics) to
ensure compliance with AB 341, AB 1826 as well as SB 1383 requirements.
Suggestion 6: Exclusive Commercial Hauling
This suggestion has been implemented. The City has implemented a Permitted Hauler Program. The City tracks
implementation of organics recycling through quarterly reports from the permitted commercial haulers.
Suggestion 7: Source Separated Organics Collection
The suggestion has been implemented. The City has established a new refuse collection franchise agreement
to require the hauler to provide separate collection of organic waste to entities that generate organic waste and
deliver the material to a qualified organics recycling or composting facility. This includes an aggressive source
separation program in its public works facilities designed to maximize diversion of organics collected from
various right of way collections.
tSuggestion 8: Wet/Dry Collection
This suggestion has been implemented. The City requires all permitted haulers to be compliant with State
regulations.

Suggestion 9: Incentives
This suggestion will not be implemented because it is not warranted and is not reasonable. Since diversion
requirements are mandated by the State under AB 341, AB 1826 and SB 1383, no incentives are necessary to
encourage participation.
Suggestion 10: Education Only
This suggestion has been implemented. The City began an aggressive public education campaign, including a
quarterly newsletter promoting source -separation and continued public education to single family homes, which
included a dedicated web page provided by the hauler.
Su,,�,,(;e stion 11: On -Site Management
This suggestion has been implemented. The City promoted use of the County's Smart Gardening page at
htlp:iicinn.l�iCl1L13111.�'1311G]Sli� This program also conducts annual workshops, which have been very well-
received by the community. In 2020, the City sent non-compliant letters to businesses and multi -family dwellings
that are subject to AB 1826 to ensure compliance/participation in organics programs.
Samnle City Organic Programs Efforts
The City of El Segundo has taken the necessary steps to develop an organics program and educational campaign
to comply with State, County, and Local mandates/requirements. These programs, along with future actions,
will assist further to implement the recommendations and suggestions outlined in the Grand Jury's report. The
following highlights some of the current organics programs in place within the City of El Segundo:
• Implemented weekly source -separated organics collection to single family residential. The City
contracts with EDCO for residential and civics services waste disposal, which offers a food scrap
collection program where food waste can be placed in the appropriate collection bin, along with
yard waste.
• Adopted a source -separated commercial organic waste recycling ordinance (AB 1826).
• Implemented an aggressive source -separation program at its Public Works facilities designed to
maximize diversion of organics collected from various right of way collections.
• Began tracking implementation of organics recycling through quarterly reports from permitted
commercial haulers.
• Sent non-compliant letters to businesses and multi -family dwellings that are subject to AB 1826 to
enforce participation in organics programs.
• Promoted County "Smart Gardening" page at littn://di)w.lacouiit-v.Lo,,,/ei)d/sL,/
• Commenced annual "Smart Gardening" workshops, which have been very well-received by the
community.

• Began distributing mulch at "Shred Events" to demonstrate Closed Loop recycling awareness to
the community.
• Began an aggressive public education campaign, which included promoting a source- separatin
quarterly newsletter.
• Continued educating single family dwellings by providing a dedicated web page created by
permitted hauler.
• In conjunction with EDCO, established a weekly food waste drop-off center at the City's weekly
Downtown Farmer's Market.
In conclusion, the Grand Jury's recommendations coincide with El Segundo's current practices and future plans.
The City remains committed to working with Los Angeles County to develop additional organics programs and
education to comply with Senate Bill 1383 (diverting organics from landfill disposal) and other applicable State,
County, and local laws.
