In government finance, a warrant is a written order to pay that instructs a federal, state, county, or city government treasurer to pay the warrant holder on demand or after a specific date. Such warrants look like checks and clear through the banking system like Page 22 of 138 Warrant Demand Register July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 2 checks. Warrants are issued for payroll to individual employees, accounts payable to vendors, to local governments, and to companies or individual taxpayers receiving a refund.

Preparation of plans and specifications for installing a green turf and irrigation system is underway, which will be implemented upon the completion of the project. Staff plan to return to City Council by December 2025 with plans and specifications for the green turf and irrigation. With the City Council's authorization, the anticipated schedule for the Abandoned Reservoir Demolition Project is as follows: July 2025: Advertising and Bid Process October 2025: Contract Award December 2025: Begin Construction March 2026: Construction Completion CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 1: Develop and Maintain Quality Infrastructure and Technology Strategy A: Seek opportunities to implement and expedite the projects in the Capital Improvement Program and ensure that City -owned infrastructure is well maintained, including streets, entryways, and facilities.

Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: None. BACKGROUND: The El Segundo Art Walk Foundation, a local non-profit organization, has requested to host a "Beer Garden" at the Annual El Segundo Art Walk event on Saturday, August 23, 2025. The request is for alcohol to be served at Fire Station 1 parking lot and the 300 block of Richmond Street. El Segundo Art Walk is an independently organized, self - guided art event. Creative businesses throughout Downtown El Segundo and Smoky Hollow transform their spaces to allow Los Angeles -based artists to showcase their work. Event attractions include food trucks, live music, art exhibits, and sponsored experiences. The El Segundo Art Walk Foundation is requesting the City Council waive El Segundo Municipal Code section 10-1-4(c) to allow alcohol on a public street and parking lot for this event. El Segundo Art Walk Foundation would be subject to compliance with California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) regulations and would need to obtain an ABC permit. DISCUSSION: Page 44 of 138 Request to Waive El Segundo Municipal Code Section 10-1-4(c) to Allow Alcohol at Fire Station 1 Parking Lot and the 300 block of Richmond Street for the El Segundo Art Walk July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 2 The annual El Segundo Art Walk event is proposed to take place in businesses and on streets in the Downtown and Smoky Hollow areas of El Segundo. The proposed "Beer Gardens" would be located at Fire Station 1 parking lot and the 300 block of Richmond Street. The "Beer Gardens" will be bound by barricades and include private security to ensure safety and supervision. An event map is attached (Attachment 1). The event is scheduled from 3.00 p.m.-9:00 p.m. Staff will continue to work with the El Segundo Art Walk Foundation founder, John McCullough, on the logistics for the event. El Segundo Municipal Code 10-14(c) prohibits the consumption or possession of intoxicating liquor on any street, sidewalk or parkway, park, playground, or in any public place, or in any place open to the patronage of the public, whose premises are not licensed for the consumption of liquor, which would include Fire Station 1 parking lot and the 300 block of Richmond St. The event's organizers would have to comply with the required ABC permit for the event. Therefore, City Council action is required and requested to facilitate the proposed allowance of alcohol for this event.

Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: None. BACKGROUND: Under California Vehicle Code §§ 22357 and 40802, the City conducts an engineering and traffic survey of its roadways and adopts the results of the survey every seven years. The last time this survey was done was in 2019. A new traffic survey was performed recently in March 2025. DISCUSSION: At its regular meeting on June 17, 2025, the City Council introduced the ordinance for first reading based on the recently performed traffic survey. The ordinance adopted the Survey, amended El Segundo Municipal Code § 8-4-3 to maintain associated Citywide speed limits, and found that the actions were exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3). Page 48 of 138 Engineering and Traffic Survey for Speed Zoning July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 2 At this time, staff respectfully recommend the City Council waive the second reading, including by title, and adopt the ordinance amending El Segundo Municipal Code § 8-4- 3 to maintain associated citywide speed limits.

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING EL SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 8-4-3 TO ADOPT AN ENGINEERING AND TRAFFIC SURVEY, AMEND EL SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE § 8-4-3 TO MAINTAIN ASSOCIATED CITYWIDE SPEED LIMITS, AND FIND THAT THE ORDINANCE IS EXEMPT FROM THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT PURSUANT TO CEQA GUIDELINES § 15061(B)(3) THE CITY COUNCIL DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Findings. The City Council finds and declares as follows: A. California Vehicle Code § 40802 requires that an engineering and traffic survey be conducted every seven years to establish or justify speed limits on streets and highways where enforcement involves the use of radar or other electronic devices which measure the speed of moving objects. B. In March 2025, the City engaged Garland and Associates to prepare its "City of El Segundo Engineering and Traffic Survey for Speed Zoning," (the "Survey"), and the City Council seeks to adopt the Survey. C. Vehicle Code § Section 22357 allows the City, by ordinance, to determine and declare a prima facie or maximum speed limit greater than 25 miles per hour in residential or business districts, with such declared speed limit to be effective when appropriate signs giving notice thereof are erected upon the street. D. Through this Ordinance, the City Council seeks to determine and maintain a prima facie or maximum speed limit greater than 25 miles per hour for certain City streets via amendment El Segundo Municipal Code ("ESMC") § 8-4-3, as described below. E. The City Council finds it in the public interest to amend § 8-4-3 to reflect those speed limits where the recommended speed limit deviates from the Vehicle Code prima facie speed limit of 25 miles per hour in residence or business districts. F. The modified speed limits in the Survey and this Ordinance are consistent with those limits in the prior 2019 City of El Segundo Engineering and Traffic Survey for Speed Zoning. SECTION 2. Survey Adoption. The City Council hereby approves and adopts the Survey, which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference. Page 1 Page 50 of 138 SECTION 3. Amendment. ESMC § 8-4-3 is amended in its entirety to read as follows: 8-4-3: SPECIAL SPEED ZONES: A. is hereby determined upon the basis of an engineering and traffic survey pursuant to Vehicle Code § 22357 that a speed greater than 25 miles per hour would facilitate the orderly movement of vehicular traffic and would be reasonable and safe upon the streets set forth in this section, and it is further determined that the speeds designated herein are appropriate to facilitate the orderly movement of traffic in a reasonable and safe manner.

Signal Regulation of Speed: The City Traffic Engineer is authorized to regulate the timing of traffic signals so as to permit the movement of traffic in an orderly and safe manner at speeds slightly at variance from the speeds otherwise applicable within the district or at intersections and shall erect appropriate signs giving notice thereof. SECTION 4. Environmental Assessment. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. In the alternative, the City Council finds that the Ordinance falls within the "common sense" exemption set forth in State CEQA Guidelines section 15061, subdivision (b)(3), which exempts activity from CEQA where "it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment." Here, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment because the subject matter only concerns use of adoption and enforcement of vehicular speed limits. SECTION 5. Severability. If any part of this Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the city council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Ordinance are severable. SECTION 6. Repeal and Supersession. The City Council adopts this Ordinance with the specific intent of superseding any contrary regulation or administrative policy and procedure. Consequently, all regulations that conflict with this Ordinance are repealed. SECTION 7. Construction. This Ordinance must be broadly construed to achieve the purposes stated in this Ordinance. It is the City Council's intent that the provisions of this Ordinance be interpreted or implemented by the City and others in a manner that facilitates the purposes set forth in this Ordinance. Page 3 Page 52 of 138 SECTION 8. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days after adoption. SECTION 9. Publication. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance causing it to be posted as required by law. PASSED AND ADOPTED this day of 12025.

RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution rejecting all bids for construction of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Curb Ramp Installation Project, Project No. 602744/PW 24-13, approving revised plans and specifications for construction of the CDBG ADA Curb Ramp Improvements Project No. 602744-24/PW 24-13, and authorizing staff to re - advertise the project for construction. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Actual CDBG allocation in FY2024-25: $94,609 Estimated CDBG allocation in FY2025-26: $61,214 Total Available for FY2025-26: $155,823 Additional Appropriation: None. Account Number: 111-400-2781-8499 (CDBG Fund Capital Improvement Project) BACKGROUND: On May 6, 2025, the City Council adopted the plans and specifications for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Curb Ramp Installation Project. The project proposed construction of ADA-compliant curb ramps to remove accessibility barriers. A Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) from the County of Los Angeles Community Development Authority (LACDA) provides funding for projects that meet the ADA requirements. Page 56 of 138 Resolution Rejecting All Bids for CDBG ADA Ramp Project July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 3 DISCUSSION: On June 3, 2025, the City Clerk received and opened five bids as follows: 1. CJ Concrete Construction: $365,430 2. Rojas Construction: $403,855 3. Gentry General Engineering: $432,000 4. FS Contractors, Inc.: $563,150 5. Palp, Inc. dba Excel Paving: $568,900 On June 9, 2025, the apparent third bidder, Gentry General Engineering, sent a bid protest letter to the City requesting that the first and second bids be found nonresponsive. The reasons cited were that the first bidder did not sign the "Bidders' Information" form, and the second bidder did not list its surveying and striping company as a subcontractor. Further, the cost proposals which the City received were higher than anticipated since the bidders provided the sum of the base bid and alternative bids as the total project cost in their proposals. In addition, although the project included the existing CDBG insurance requirements at the time of bidding, we must adhere to the new federal insurance requirements that were implemented after the bid opening.

King, Assistant City Attorney Resolution No. Page 2 of 2 Page 62 of 138 City Council Agenda Statement F I, F, G t I) O Meeting Date: July 1, 2025 Agenda Heading: Staff Presentations Item Number: D.9 TITLE: Approval of Proposed Scope of Work for Citywide Staffing Assessment Request for Proposals RECOMMENDATION: Discuss and provide direction regarding the scope of work for an upcoming citywide staffing assessment request for proposals. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: A total of $100,000 (Account #001-400-2101-6214) was included in the adopted FY 2025-26 Operating Budget; however, the total cost may be modified depending on receipt of proposals. BACKGROUND: Like many municipalities, the City of El Segundo ("City") faces the ongoing challenge of ensuring its workforce is optimally structured and resourced to deliver high -quality public services efficiently and effectively. Overtime, factors such as evolving community needs, technological advancements, budgetary constraints, retirements, and changes in operational demands can create misalignment between the City's strategic goals and its staffing realities. A citywide staffing assessment is a critical undertaking designed to systematically evaluate the current state of the City's resources. This comprehensive review typically involves analyzing departmental structures, workload distribution, and overall staffing levels across all City departments. The primary objective is to identify areas of potential inefficiencies, including analysis of possible over/under staffing, and opportunities for reorganization or process improvement. Page 63 of 138 Request For Proposal for City-wide Staffing Assessment July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 4 Conducting such an assessment now is particularly relevant given upcoming infrastructure projects, the continued need to modernize city services, and projected budgetary pressures. By proactively undertaking this assessment, the City aims to not only optimize its operational effectiveness and financial sustainability, but also ensure it remains agile and responsive to the future needs of its residents and businesses. The findings from this assessment will provide data -driven insights to inform strategic workforce planning, enhance service delivery, and foster a more efficient and productive municipal government. In order to address these needs, at the May 5, 2025 City Council Budget Study Session, City Council provided direction to staff to initiate the process of conducting a citywide staffing assessment. $100,000 was included in the adopted FY 2025-26 Operating Budget for this purpose. The draft scope of work of the Request for Proposals (RFP) was presented to the City Council Finance Subcommittee on June 12, 2025. The attached draft RFP reflects the scope presented to the subcommittee, including establishing a preference for firms with both public and private sector experience. As written, the draft RFP includes the preference, but does not require public and private sector experience in order to be considered for services. DISCUSSION: The RFP for a citywide staffing assessment focuses on several key areas to optimize the City's workforce and operations. The selected consultant will be tasked with evaluating existing organizational structures and departmental operations, with the aim of identifying opportunities for improved efficiencies and proposing realistic cost -saving measures. A crucial component involves recommending optimal staffing configurations and span of control, based on both current and projected workloads. The scope of work is comprehensive, beginning with an Organizational Assessment that will review and evaluate the current structure and benchmark performance of all City departments, specifically looking for potential overlaps and inefficiencies. This includes assessing the effectiveness of current staffing levels and reporting relationships, and identifying any staffing shortages or overages based on workload and processes. The consultant will also identify opportunities to streamline organizational functions or consolidate roles, and recommend adjustments to improve internal coordination and communication. An Operational Efficiency Review will analyze existing business processes, internal controls, and service delivery models. This review will also assess the use of technology and look for opportunities for automation, modernization, or consolidation. To gather comprehensive insights, staff and leadership interviews will be conducted to capture institutional knowledge and feedback. Page 64 of 138 Request For Proposal for City-wide Staffing Assessment July 1, 2025 Page 3 of 4 Finally, a Fiscal and Cost -Savings Review will identify strategies to reduce operating costs while maintaining or improving service quality. This includes evaluating contract consulting services for potential insourcing or renegotiation. The deliverables will include draft and final reports with detailed findings, actionable recommendations, and visual organizational charts, along with an implementation plan that includes a timeline, priorities, and a cost -benefit analysis. The findings and final product will be presented to the City Council for further consideration.

General Information The City of El Segundo ("City") is requesting proposals from qualified consulting firms ("Consultant") to conduct a comprehensive citywide Staffing Assessment. This initiative will provide actionable recommendations to optimize internal operations, staffing efficiency, and resource allocation across all departments. There is no expressed or implied obligation for the City to reimburse responding firms for any expenses incurred in preparing proposals in response to this request. Materials submitted are subject to public inspection under the California Public Records Act (Government Code Sec. 6250 et seq.), unless exempt. One (1) digital copy of a proposal clearly marked "RFP: Citywide Staffing Assessment" and contained in a sealed envelope shall be received no later than 2:00 p.m. (PST), [insert due date] at: City of El Segundo Office of the City Clerk 350 Main Street El Segundo, CA 90245 Proposals received after the scheduled submittal deadline will not be accepted and may be returned at the proposer's expense. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals submitted, to waive any non -material irregularities or information in any proposal, and to accept or reject any items or combination of items. The successful finalists may be required to submit additional copies of the proposal. During the evaluation process, the City reserves the right, where it may serve the City's best interest, to request additional information or clarifications from proposers, or to allow corrections of errors or omissions. At the discretion of the City, firms submitting proposals may be requested to make oral presentations as part of the evaluation process. The City reserves the right to retain all proposals submitted and to use any ideas in a proposal regardless of whether that proposal is selected is not. Submission of a proposal indicates acceptance by the firm of the conditions contained in this request for proposals, unless clearly and specifically noted in the proposal submitted and confirmed in the contract between the City and the firm selected. It is anticipated the selection of a firm will be completed by [enter date]. Following the notification of the selected firm, a recommendation and proposed contract will be prepared for review and approval by the City Council in a regular meeting. Page 69 of 138 B. Term of Engagement The City intends to contract for services for a period of up to one (1) year. The agreement may be extended for up to one (1) additional one-year term subject to mutual agreement and satisfactory performance. II. Nature of Services Required A. General The City is seeking a qualified consultant, with a preference of both public and private sector experience, to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the organizational structure and staffing efficiency across City departments. The selected firm will be expected to recommend operational improvements that enhance the City's overall effectiveness and identify and propose realistic cost - saving opportunities. Additionally, the consultant will provide strategic guidance on optimal staffing configurations and appropriate spans of control, based on current and projected workload demands. A key component of the assessment will involve benchmarking departmental performance against comparable peer agencies to ensure best practices are being considered. Ultimately, the consultant will deliver a practical, data -informed roadmap to improve internal workflows and strengthen cross - departmental collaboration. Community Profile The City was incorporated in 1917 and is in the South Bay Region of Los Angeles County, roughly 20 miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles. The city is bordered by the Los Angeles International Airport to the north, the Pacific Ocean Beach to the west, Manhattan the south, and the 405 Freeway to the east. The small town, 5.46 square miles, has a residential population of approximately 17,272, per the 2020 Census. El Segundo is a thriving business center with a daytime (employee) population that exceeds 60,000. The city is home to several Fortune 500 companies and well-known companies including Boeing, Chevron, L'Oreal, Mattel, Raytheon, Beyond Meat, Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Lakers, and LA Kings. B. Scope of Work to be Performed A. Organizational Assessment The consultant will begin by conducting a thorough review of the City's current organizational structure across departments. This assessment will include benchmarking the performance and functions of each department against peer agencies to identify areas where El Segundo may be underperforming or excelling. The evaluation will focus on analyzing current staffing levels, the clarity and efficiency of reporting relationships, and the alignment between staff workloads and operational demands. Through this process, the consultant will identify redundancies, gaps, and potential inefficiencies, as well as opportunities to 4 Page 70 of 138 streamline functions or consolidate roles where appropriate. Additionally, the consultant will evaluate the flow of communication and collaboration among departments, offering recommendations to strengthen internal coordination and improve the responsiveness and agility of the organization. B. Operational Efficiency Review In this phase, the consultant will examine the City's existing business processes and internal control mechanisms with an eye toward improving operational efficiency and service delivery. This includes a detailed review of routine procedures, approval workflows, and cross -functional interactions that may be contributing to bottlenecks or delays. The assessment will also evaluate the current use of technology within departments and identify opportunities for automation, modernization, and systems integration to reduce manual processes and enhance productivity. To fully capture the operational landscape and institutional knowledge, the consultant will conduct interviews and focus group discussions with staff and leadership from various departments. These conversations will help surface recurring challenges, system limitations, and potential innovations that may not be readily visible in documentation alone. C. Fiscal and Cost -Savings Review The consultant will provide a fiscal analysis to identify strategies that can reduce operational costs while maintaining or improving the quality of services provided to the community. This includes evaluating areas where cost efficiencies can be gained through improved resource allocation, staffing models, or changes in workflow. A review of current contracted services will also be conducted to determine whether insourcing or renegotiation of certain agreements would be more financially beneficial for the City. Additionally, the consultant will recommend a suite of performance metrics and productivity measures that can be used to evaluate ongoing fiscal health and organizational performance. These metrics should support a culture of accountability and continuous improvement, enabling the City to monitor results over time and adjust strategies accordingly. D. Deliverables Upon completion of the assessment, the consultant will provide both draft and final reports that include detailed findings, analysis, and actionable recommendations. These reports will include visually comprehensible organizational charts illustrating existing and proposed structures, as well as a clear implementation plan outlining timeline phases, priorities, and responsible parties. A cost -benefit analysis will accompany the recommendations to help City leaders evaluate the return on investment and financial feasibility of proposed changes. As part of the engagement, the consultant will present the findings to the City Council and/or executive leadership. These presentations will serve as a forum to discuss key insights, clarify recommendations, and ensure alignment on next steps for implementation. III.

The amount of insurance set forth above must be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage.

Such insurance must be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the City. Professional liability coverage must be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," the Consultant must continue to maintain the insurance in effect for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated ("extended insurance"). Such extended insurance must have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and cover the Consultant for all claims made by the City arising out of any errors or omissions of the Consultant, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect. Automobile coverage must be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).

Certificate(s) must reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage. The Consultant will require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word "endeavor" with regard to any notice provisions. By signing this form, the bidder certifies that it has read, understands, and will comply with these insurance requirements if it is selected as the City's consultant. Failure to provide this form may render the bidder's proposal "nonresponsive."

BACKGROUND: The Rec Park Commission advises the City Council on all matters pertaining to recreation, parks, parkways, and street trees. It makes recommendations to the City Council regarding level of services and policies. It assists in implementing Recreation, Parks and Library programs, including youth counseling, senior outreach and transportation services, and the Public Works Department in the maintenance of landscaping and parks throughout the city.

Page 130 of 138 Announce CCB Appointments and Extend the Terms of Two Senior Citizen Housing Corporation Board Members July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 3 The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee was established July 21, 2020, for the purpose of advising the City Council on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Initially, the DEI Committee studied four topics and presented recommendations to the City Council. The four initial study topics were as follows: 1) Public Safety (including a review of Police Department policies, practices, training, and future directions), 2) Citywide Organization (including a review of City government policies, practices, training, etc.), 3) Community at -large (including a review of City demographic data, history, trends, etc.) 4) Local Economy (including a review of private sector diversity policies, training, etc.). The Library Board of Trustees acts in an advisory capacity to the City Council in all matters pertaining to the Library and cooperates with other governmental agencies and civic groups in the advancement of sound planning and programming. The board considers, reviews, edits, and issues policy recommendations on library service, recommends the adoption of standards pertaining to library services and programs and makes recommendations for the provision of adequate library services consistent with community needs. The board may administer any trust declared or created for the Library and approve the Library's Annual Report to the State Librarian. The Senior Citizen Housing Corporation Board was established to actively oversee the management, operation, maintenance, and finances of Park Vista. The Board enters into an operating agreement with the City Council and enlists a management company to operate the facility. DISCUSSION: The Recreation and Parks Commission is a five -member commission, who must be residents of El Segundo. Each member serves a four-year term, without term limits.

Receive and file the report on potential opportunities associated with the major events in Southern California, including the 2026 FIFA World Cup, 2027 Super Bowl, and LA 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. 2. Provide direction on potential participation in regional programming such as fan zones, hospitality houses, and cultural showcases. 3.

Authorize staff to initiate facility use negotiations with interested visiting teams or athletes competing in upcoming major events, including closing facilities to the public, and fee structure. 6. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Fiscal impact will be determined as the Major Events Ad Hoc Committee returns to City Council to appropriate funds, with the exact amount contingent upon the specific event, activation, or effort authorized by City Council at a future time. BACKGROUND: Regional Significance and Local Opportunity The 2026 FIFA World Cup will be hosted in 16 cities among three nations, including the Page 133 of 138 Major Events Ad Hoc Committee Update July 1, 2025 Page 2 of 6 United States, Mexico, and Canada, from June 11 through July 19, 2026. Eight matches are scheduled in the City of Inglewood's SoFi Stadium, inclusive of five 'Group Stage' matches, two 'Round of 32 Stage' matches, and one Quarterfinal match. Two of the Group Stage matches at SoFi are already set as Team USAs first and third scheduled games. Final qualifications and tournament roster for the 2026 FIFA World Cup is expected by March 2026. For the first time the World Cup is being hosted among three participating countries, with an expected 6.5 million fans celebrating across Canada, Mexico, and the United States, creating a unique cultural blend and exchange uniting the continent and globe during the tournament. FIFA and participating cities are planning local community events, celebrations with stakeholders, drawing more visitors to Southern California than just those who will attend the matches. Reportedly, the eight games hosted at SoFi Stadium is estimated to generate $343 million in direct spending from visitors on areas like hotels, meals, and transportation. Such an event is an opportune moment to unite people from all over the world, promoting a cultural exchange, facilitating community engagement and enrichment activations, and showcasing the vibrant community of El Segundo. The Super Bowl LXI in 2027 at SoFi Stadium anticipates a significant influx of visitors and is projected to generate an economic impact between $234-$477 million for the region, based on the 2022 LA Super Bowl. Beyond the championship game itself, the Super Bowl will be accompanied by a week-long slate of associated events designed to engage both visitors and residents. These typically include the NFL Honors awards ceremony, the interactive Super Bowl Experience fan convention, and Super Bowl Opening Night. The 2028 Summer Olympics and Paralympic Games will be hosted by the City of Los Angeles from July 14 through August 27, 2028, marking the city's third time as Olympic host, following previous Games in 1932 and 1984. Games will be hosted throughout southern California, near El Segundo, including the cities of Long Beach, Carson, Inglewood, and Downtown Los Angeles, the Sepulveda Basin Recreation Area, and Venice Beach. The event features 36 Olympic and 23 Paralympic sports, with over 800 competition events, and more than 3,000 hours of thrilling live action. Over 11 million visitors attended games and celebration sites in Paris 2024 Olympic Games, with a similar expectation for the LA28 Olympic Games. The upcoming Games place a strong emphasis on sustainability and innovation, utilizing a "no -build" approach by relying on existing venues and public transportation throughout Southern California. The City of El Segundo's adjacency to LAX, the 405 Freeway, 105 Freeway, Los Angeles Metro C Line, and proximity to major venues positions the City strategically to experience significant spillover benefits through the Games. Over the next three years, international mega -events including the FIFA World Cup, Page 134 of 138 Major Events Ad Hoc Committee Update July 1, 2025 Page 3 of 6 2026 NBA All -Star Game, 2027 NFL Super Bowl, and the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, will intensify global attention on the Los Angeles region. These events are expected to generate increased demand for short-term accommodations, amplify traffic flow, elevate pressure on public safety resources, and create economic opportunities for local businesses, especially those in the hospitality and tourism sectors. Cultural Olympiad and Community Engagement Running parallel to the Olympic Games, the LA28 Cultural Olympiad is a regionwide celebration of the arts, culture, and diversity of Southern California. It will feature performances, exhibitions, and educational programming. Cities across the region, including Culver City, Long Beach, and Carson are already engaging with regional arts leaders and considering participation to showcase their own creative communities. This presents a timely opportunity for El Segundo to assess its role in arts -based programming and cultural diplomacy. Proactive planning is essential to maximize these opportunities while ensuring the city's infrastructure, safety services, and community identity are preserved and enhanced. Recognizing the growing scale and complexity of upcoming international events, at the May 6, 2025, and June 3, 2025, City Council meetings, Councilmember Keldorf recommended the formal formation of the Major Events Ad Hoc Committee composed of City Council members, commissioners, staff, business, and community representatives to proactively plan and coordinate local policies, partnerships, infrastructure needs, and community programs related to the Olympics and other large- scale events. The Committee will focus on building relationships and facilitating the planning efforts of: • Economic Opportunities - Strengthening the hospitality and tourism industries to drive sustainable growth • Infrastructure and Transportation - Enhancing accessibility and connectivity for residents and visitors • Community Engagement - Fostering collaboration and inclusivity through public participation and activations • Policy Considerations — i.e. Short -Term Rental Policy — balancing demand, neighborhood integrity, and tourism • City Facility Use - Leveraging Olympic and professional training partnerships for community benefit • Public Safety - Preparing for large-scale events with proactive security and emergency readiness The committee can be tasked with and address other related topics as they emerge in connection with these events. While meeting monthly, the committee will occasionally report back or seek additional guidance or direction by the City Council through City Council Member Keldorf. The following establishes the final committee members: Page 135 of 138 Major Events Ad Hoc Committee Update July 1, 2025 Page 4 of 6 • City Council Member Michelle Keldorf • Community Development Director Michael Allen • Planning Commissioner Melissa McCaverty • Recreation and Parks Commissioner Kelly Watson • Arts and Culture Advisory Committee Member - Michael Schepps • Chamber of Commerce CEO/President Marsha Hansen • Community Member, Tesse Rasmussen DISCUSSION: With the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and LA 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games approaching, cities across Southern California —including those not hosting official events —have a unique opportunity to benefit from increased international attention, tourism, and regional investment. El Segundo's location near the SoFi Stadium, LAX, and other major venues places it in a strategic position to explore community, economic, and cultural gains. The following outlines potential opportunities the City can pursue, including public programming, infrastructure planning, cultural engagement, and regional partnerships to prepare to participate meaningfully in upcoming events. Economic and Tourism Boom Major events provide El Segundo with an opportunity to benefit economically due to its proximity to key venues. Even without hosting competitions, increased tourism could boost hotel stays, short-term rentals, and spending at local businesses. Establishing a fan zone or cultural activation could generate revenue and visibility. For example, there were over 30 hospitality houses at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Despite being a smaller hospitality house, New Zealand's hospitality house at the 2024 Paris Olympics attracted 20,000 visitors. These initiatives can also create temporary jobs in hospitality, security, and event operations. El Segundo's involvement in LA28 offers a valuable opportunity to showcase its world - class sports infrastructure, strengthen tourism, and support local businesses. By capitalizing on its existing professional sports teams and organizations, top -tier training facilities, and strategic location, the city can position itself as a premier destination for both professional and recreational athletes. City staff have received several inquiries about the use of City facilities (e.g. El Segundo Wiseburn Aquatic Center), and is seeking authorization from City Council to initiate discussions related to: • Possible closure of a facility to the public leading up to and during the Olympics Page 136 of 138 Major Events Ad Hoc Committee Update July 1, 2025 Page 5 of 6 to accommodate exclusive use. • Establishing the appropriate fee structure for exclusive use of facilities to include, but not limited to, existing use fees per the adopted fee schedule, costs related to additional supplies needed to accommodate expanded use, increased staffing needs (i.e. public safety, public works, etc.), facility enhancements or improvements, or community benefits or programming. Furthermore, LA28 provides a global platform to highlight El Segundo's thriving business community and drive new economic growth. As home to major corporations like AT&T, Chevron, L'Oreal, Mattel, and Northrop Grumman, the City can leverage the international spotlight to showcase its industry leaders and innovations. Increased visibility during the Olympics can attract investors and businesses looking to expand, while infrastructure improvements and tourism activity can create lasting economic benefits. By aligning its sports presence with its corporate strengths, El Segundo can reinforce its reputation as a hub for both business and athletics. Investing in Our Future: Infrastructure & Transportation The "28 by '28" initiative and Olympic transit planning offer a chance to accelerate local mobility improvements. Enhancing bus routes, exploring shuttle options, and improving pedestrian and bike infrastructure can help the City prepare for higher visitor volumes while leaving a long-term benefit. Innovative mobility options (e.g., shuttles, micro - mobility, potential partnerships with private transport solutions) should be evaluated. With spectator parking prohibited at most venues, the Games will rely on an extensive network of bus shuttles from remote parking locations, creating potential roles for nearby cities in transportation and mobility planning. By partnering with existing privately -owned parking garages, El Segundo is well positioned to serve as a central transportation hub in the region to facilitate connectivity between off -site parking and the venues. LA28 is currently in the process of exploring these opportunities in order to solidify contracts and logistics related to establishing the routes and connectivity between venues. Potential collaboration with private property owners, combined with City -sponsored local activations and a fixed route bus service, may provide opportunities to generate additional foot traffic in El Segundo's commercial nodes without increased vehicle traffic, consistent with the "28 by 28"' goals, and City's championing economic development strategic plan initiatives. Building Community & a Lasting Legacy The Olympics provide an opportunity to foster civic pride and celebrate local identity. The City can participate in LA28's Cultural Olympiad through performances, youth sports, and volunteer programs. Such efforts would highlight El Segundo's diversity and strengthen community ties.
