AS OF 116/26 REGISTER # 12b Page 44 of 140 City Council Agenda Statement Meeting Date: January 20, 2026 Agenda Heading: F I, F G t I) O Consent Item Number: B.4 TITLE: Construction Contract Award for the Electric Vehicle Charger Installation, Project No. PW 24-15 RECOMMENDATION: 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a standard Public Works Construction Contract with ACDD, Inc. for $92,597 for the Electric Vehicle Charger Installation Project, Project No. PW 24-15, and authorize an additional $14,403 as contingency funds for potential unforeseen conditions. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Amount Budgeted for EV Projects in FY 2025-26: $350,000 Additional Appropriation: No Account Number: 125-511-8519-3-88110 BACKGROUND: In July 2024, the City staff retained DKS Associates to develop construction plans to install six single -port charging plugs in the City Hall Executive Parking Lot for the city fleet. The project would also replace the existing public dual -port charging station on Holly Avenue. On September 30, 2025, Public Works staff initiated the informal bidding process for the project in accordance with the informal bidding procedures established by the Municipal Code. Requests for proposals were sent to eight electrical contractors, and a pre -bid job walk occurred on October 7, 2025. DISCUSSION: On October 15, 2025, Public Works received two bids as follows: Page 45 of 140 Electric Vehicle Charging Improvements, PW 24-15 January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 3 1. Electrocomm, Inc. $79,325 2. ACDD, Inc. $113,600 City staff reviewed the bids and subsequently informed apparent lowest bidder Electrocomm, Inc., of calculation errors in their bid table, and requested them to provide additional municipal references. Electrocomm, Inc. asked instead to withdraw their bid for their ongoing and queued projects that would not allow time for El Segundo's construction. City staff then informed the remaining bidder, ACDD, Inc., of calculation errors in their bid table and requested references to add to the one they had submitted. ACDD, Inc. reduced their bid to $92,597, corrected their calculation errors, and supplied additional government agency references. ACDD, Inc. is found to be the apparent lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Their state contractor's license and DIR registration are in good standing, and they have satisfactorily completed similar electric vehicle charger installation projects for the Judicial Council of California, Los Angeles Air Force Base, and the City of Alhambra. Staff respectfully recommends awarding the project to ACDD, Inc. for a construction cost of $92,597. Further, an amount of $14,403 is requested as contingency funds for potential unforeseen conditions, for a total construction cost of $107,000. With City Council's authorization, the anticipated schedule for the City Hall Executive Parking Lot Electric Vehicle Charging Improvements is as follows: January 2026: Contract Award March 2026: Begin Construction May 2026: Project Completion I:NIAA&II:7_'l1Xr]Los aw_1ZKKOIiyiIUA/_10IN:$ 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.

FISCAL IMPACT: Amount Budgeted: $150,000 Additional Appropriation: None Account Number(s): 301-511-4101-1-88400 (Citywide HVAC CIP account) BACKGROUND: On August 19, 2025, the City Council adopted a resolution to approve plans and specifications for the replacement of the Gordon Clubhouse HVAC at Recreation Park and authorized staff to advertise the project for bids. On October 21, 2025, the City Council adopted a resolution to reject all bids previously received for the project, and authorized staff to readvertise Project No. PW 25-14 for bids. The scope of work includes the demolition of one chiller and three rooftop air handling units, along with associated chilled water piping, valves, a chilled water pump, and line -mounted devices. The project also includes the installation of three new rooftop packaged units, replacement of condensate piping, pipe supports, service connections, and associated electrical work. Page 50 of 140 Construction Contract Award for the Replacement of Gordon Clubhouse HVAC System at Recreation Park, Project No. PW 25-14 January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 3 DISCUSSION: On December 3, 2025, the City Clerk received and opened eight bids as follows: 1. AC Pros, Inc. (Reseda, CA) $131,420 2. Estate Design and Construction (Culver City, CA) $118,000 3. Aire Masters (Santa Fe Springs, CA) $178,500 4. Simco Construction (Altadena, CA) $186,600 5.

ACCO (El Segundo, CA) $147,000 The apparent lowest bidder, Estate Design and Construction, and the second -lowest bidder, AC Pros, were both determined to be nonresponsive after City staff and the City Attorney reviewed the submitted bid documents and confirmed that neither bidder acknowledged nor submitted the required Bid Addendum No. 1, which included pertinent design information related to the project scope. The Addendum clearly states that "failure to provide such acknowledgment shall render the bid nonresponsive and subject to rejection." Due to this finding, City staff reviewed the bid documents, references, and license status of the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder, NKS Mechanical Contracting, Inc. Staff confirmed that NKS Mechanical Contracting, Inc. submitted all required bid documents, maintains a contractor's license in good standing, and received satisfactory reference checks regarding the performance of similar HVAC replacement projects for public agencies. Accordingly, staff determined that NKS Mechanical Contracting, Inc. is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in accordance with public works contract bidding requirements under state law. With Council's authorization, construction is anticipated to commence in March 2026 and be substantially completed in May 2026.

Waive second reading and adopt the proposed ordinance. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: None. BACKGROUND: On June 28, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its ruling on the City of Grants Pass, Oregon v. Johnson et al. case regarding Grants Pass's ordinance penalizing camping on public property. In its ruling, the Supreme Court upheld the city's anti -camping restrictions, rejecting prior legal precedent from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit's decision in Martin v. Boise that previously found anti -camping laws constituted cruel and unusual punishment unless adequate shelter space was available. Accordingly, such anti -camping laws may be enforced regardless of whether adequate shelter space is available within the given jurisdiction. On September 17, 2024, in response to the Grants Pass decision, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1664 expanding its camping prohibitions within public parks and beaches, and prohibiting using vehicles for human habitation in specified public areas. The California Constitution generally provides that a city may make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general law. (Cal. Const. art. XI, § 7.) It is the desire of the City to keep the public Page 55 of 140 Ordinance Amending City's Anti -Camping Ordinance January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 3 right-of-way and public places clean and available for public use and to ensure the public has access to all property, both public and private. DISCUSSION: The El Segundo Police Department has been enforcing Ordinance No. 1664. As part of its enforcement of the ordinance, ESPD Officers have noted that transients often set up encampments in front of vacant private buildings or in private parking lots of businesses. These areas are open to the public, visible from the street, but are private property. Because the City's existing ordinance only includes public property, ESPD is requesting that the ordinance be amended to include such areas. The Proposed Ordinance The ESMC defines "to camp" as remaining in or at a campsite, and "camping" as any place where bedding, sleeping bag, or other material used for bedding purposes, or any stove or fire is placed for the purpose of maintaining a temporary place to live. (ESMC Section 7-8-1). The proposed Ordinance, if adopted, will: 1. Expand the list of locations where camping is prohibited in the City to also include certain portions of private property, including within 20 feet of an entrance or exit to any nonresidential building which abuts a public sidewalk and on privately owned parking lots. 2. Apply the "removal of campsite" procedures currently in the ESMC to those campsites on private property. On December 16, 2025, the City Council introduced the proposed ordinance. If adopted by the City Council, the ordinance will take effect in 30 days. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 2: Optimize Community Safety and Preparedness Strategy A: Comprehensively address the unsheltered homeless population.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTIONS 7-8-3 AND 7-8- 4 OF CHAPTER 8 (PROHIBITED CAMPING) TO TITLE 7 (NUISANCES AND OFFENSES) OF THE EL SEGUNDO MUNICPAL CODE EXPANDING ITS ANTI -CAMPING PROHIBITIONS TO INCLUDE CERTAIN PORTIONS OF PRIVATE PROPERTY AND TO ENSURE ACCESS TO NONRESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS THE CITY COUNCIL DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Findings. The City Council finds and declares as follows: A. The California Constitution provides that a city may make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary and other ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general law; B. The City of El Segundo ("City") and its City Council are committed to protecting the life, health, and safety of its residents and all people within the geographical boundaries of the City; C. The City and its City Council are committed to protecting the rights of individuals who cannot obtain shelter and to treating their personal property with respect and consideration; D. On June 28, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court decided the City of Grants Pass, Oregon v. Johnson et al. case, upholding Grants Pass's ordinance prohibiting camping on public property to tackle the issue of homelessness; E. In July 2024, California Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-1-24, ordering state agencies to adopt policies to address encampments on state property and encouraging local governments to adopt similar polices "and to use all available resources and infrastructure" to combat homelessness; F. In September 2024, in response to the Grants Pass decision, the City adopted Ordinance No. 1664 expanding its camping prohibitions within public parks and beaches, and prohibiting using vehicles for human habitation in specified public areas; Page 58 of 140 G. In July 2025, U.S. President Donald J. Trump issued an executive order titled "Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets" in which he identified the homelessness crisis and ordered his administration to seek civil commitments of individuals with mental illness or are living on the streets and cannot care for themselves; H. Unauthorized camping can create health and safety risks related to the accumulation of trash, food waste, human waste, and contaminated medical waste; To mitigate risks to health and safety of its citizens, the City Council desires to adopt regulations further expanding its anti -camping prohibition to strengthen the protection of individual and public safety as well as ensure pedestrian accessibility rights throughout the City. SECTION 2. Section 7-8-3 of the El Segundo Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows (deletions in strikethro gh and additions in double underline): 7-8-3 CAMPING PROHIBITED A. No person may occupy a campsite in or upon any sidewalk, street, alley, lane, public right of way, park, bench, or any other publicly -owned property or under any bridge or viaduct, unless (i) otherwise specifically authorized by this Code or (ii) upon City Council resolution, the City Council may exempt a special event from the prohibitions of this section, if the City Council finds such exemption to be in the public interest and consistent with their goals and notices and in accordance with conditions imposed by the City Council. Any conditions imposed will include a condition requiring that the applicant provide evidence of adequate insurance coverage and agree to indemnify the City for any liability, damage or expense incurred by the City as a result of activities of the applicant. Any findings by the City Council shall specify the exact dates and location covered by the exemption. B. No person may occupy a campsite that: 1. Obstructs or impedes passage, as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act; or 2. Is within 20 feet of an entrance or exit to any nonresidential building which abuts a public sidewalk and (i) into which the public is invited or (ii) which is open to view from the public street: or 3. Is on a privately owned parking lot to which the public is invited and permitted. Page 2 of 4 Page 59 of 140 SECTION 3. Section 7-8-4 of the El Segundo Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows (deletions in strikethroug-h and additions in double underline): 7-8-4 REMOVAL OF CAMPSITE ON PUBLIC PROPS Upon discovery of a campsite in violation of this chapter, en pehlic preperty, removal of the campsite by the Police Department, or designee, may occur under the following circumstances: A. Prior to removing the campsite, the City shall post a notice, 24-hours in advance. B. At the time a 24-hour notice is posted, the City shall inform a local agency delivering social services to homeless people of the location of the campsite. C. After the 24-hour notice period has passed, the Police Department, or designee, is authorized to remove the campsite and all personal property related thereto. D. The foregoing notwithstanding, campsite removal may proceed without the above -referenced notice only if an imminent threat to the public health, safety, and welfare exists (e.g., fire on site) that requires immediate removal to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. 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." 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. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective thirty Page 3 of 4 Page 60 of 140 (30) days after adoption. SECTION 7. 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 January, 2026.

Authorize the City Manager to execute a standard Public Works contract with Golden Gate Construction in the amount of $748,980 for the Repair of Fence Posts, Distressed Walls and Surfaces at Recreation Park at Recreation Park, Project No. PW 25-05, and authorize an additional $150,000 as contingency funds for potential unforeseen conditions. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Included in the adopted FY 2025-26 Budget. Amount Budgeted: $1,200,000 Additional Appropriation: None Account Number(s): 301-511-4101-1-88421 BACKGROUND: On October 7, 2025, the City Council approved the project plans and specifications and authorized staff to advertise the project for public bidding. The project will repair and/or reconstruct existing fence posts, concrete walls and court surfaces throughout the park that are showing signs of age and fatigue. DISCUSSION: On November 12, 2025, the City Clerk received and opened seven bids as follows: 1. Shiraz Construction (Sherman Oaks, CA) $718,888 Page 62 of 140 Construction Contract Award for the Repair of Fence Posts, Distressed Walls and Surfaces at Recreation Park, Project No. PW 25-05 January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 3 2.

Estate Design & Construction (Culver City, CA) $859,160 6. Solex Construction (Los Angeles, CA) $989,810 7. Howard Ridley Co. Inc. (Chino, CA) $1,328,250 Following the bid opening, City staff reviewed the bid submittals for bidder responsibility in coordination with the City Attorney and in accordance with the project plans and specifications, the California Public Contract Code, and applicable case laws. Following the review, City staff identified concerns with the lowest monetary bidder, Shiraz Construction, related to their experience on comparable public agency projects, documentation practices, staffing, and professional judgment. A written Notice of Responsibility Hearing was issued to Shiraz Construction on December 10, 2025, outlining the identified concerns and providing the firm with an opportunity to respond. A responsibility hearing was conducted on December 22, 2025. Shiraz Construction attended the hearing and presented information, responded to questions from City staff, and was given an opportunity to address the identified concerns. At the conclusion of the hearing, Shiraz Construction was provided additional time, until January 2, 2026, to submit supplemental written materials for consideration as part of staff's evaluation. City staff reviewed all testimony, written submissions, references, and supporting documentation submitted both during and after the hearing. Following evaluation, City staff found Shiraz Construction to be a non -responsible bidder and not qualified to perform the project in accordance with the City's requirements. Importantly, the term "non -responsible bidder" does not mean the bidder is untrustworthy; instead, that term simply reflects the bidder's fitness, quality and capacity to perform the proposed work to the City's satisfaction. Due to this determination, City staff reviewed the bid documents, references, and license status of the next lowest bidder, Golden Gate Construction. Staff confirmed that Golden Gate Construction submitted a responsive bid, maintains a contractor's license in good standing, and received satisfactory reference checks regarding performance on similar public works projects for public agencies. During staff's bid review, a clerical error was identified between the numerical total and the total written in words. Consistent with the bid instructions, when a discrepancy exists between the numerical and written bid amounts, the written total stated in words is used. Golden Gate Construction subsequently confirmed in writing its acceptance of the written bid amount. Accordingly, staff determined that Golden Gate Construction is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in accordance with applicable Public Works contracting requirements.

Conduct a public hearing. 2. Adopt a resolution approving Aquatic Specific Fees as part of the FY 2025-26 Master Fee Schedule. 3. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The estimated fiscal impact from the proposed adoptions and changes is additional revenue of approximately $232,000 annually. The fees will go into effect April 1, 2026. BACKGROUND: On October 7, 2025, the City Council approved the Aquatics Business Plan, which establishes a roadmap toward meeting the cost recovery goals identified by Council. The plan outlines targeted cost recovery levels of 80.4% for the El Segundo Wiseburn Aquatics Center, 62.0% for the Urho Saari Swim Stadium, and 19.4% for Hilltop Pool, resulting in a combined aquatics cost -recovery target of 63.2%. To support these goals, the plan implements key fee adjustments, including the establishment of prime time and non -prime time lane rental rates of $20 and $12 per lane per hour and a $1 increase to non-resident recreation program fees. Throughout the review of the plan, Council emphasized the importance of maintaining affordable swim lesson pricing to promote community -wide water safety. 11 &*4 01*1 IC 0 F The proposed fee adjustments reflect the cost recovery targets outlined in the Aquatics Business Plan. The prime -time lane rental rate is recommended to increase from $18 to Page 69 of 140 Resolution Adopting New Aquatics Fees January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 2 $20 per hour (10%), and the non -prime -time rate from $9.80 to $12 per hour (18%). These increases bring the facility closer to comparable market rates. In accordance with the Business Plan, non-resident recreation program fees are proposed to increase by $1, adjusting the adult non-resident rate from $7 to $8 (13%) and the senior/youth/military non-resident rate from $5 to $6 (17%). This proposal also provides an option to maintain affordability for entry-level Learn -to - Swim classes by keeping those classes at the current rate of $6.25 per lesson, while adjusting upper -level classes to a market -competitive rate of $12.50 per lesson. This change is estimated to generate approximately $50,000 in additional annual revenue, while preserving access to foundational swim instruction. All other aquatics fees are recommended to remain unchanged at this time. Consistent with the Business Plan, these fees would be subject to an automatic annual increase of 5% beginning in Fiscal Year 2026-27.

Approve the revised classification specification and exam plan for the Fire Division Chief and Fire Marshal positions. 2. Adopt a Resolution modifying the basic salary range for the Fire Marshal. 3. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to update the classification specifications and exam plans. An increase the Fire Marshal base salary for a full fiscal year will have a fiscal impact of $14,783. This cost can be absorbed through salary savings as the position has remained vacant during this fiscal year. No additional appropriation is needed. BACKGROUND: The Fire Marshal position is represented by the Supervisory and Professional Employees' Association (SPEA) and is a single -incumbent full-time position. The position was vacated in November 2023 and a recruitment was opened the following month to search for a successor. Although this recruitment remained open until May 2024, we were unable to fill the position as there were very limited qualified candidates that applied. During this same time, the Fire Department was exploring ways to balance their budget for fiscal year 2024-2025. Consideration was given to underfill the Fire Marshal with a Deputy Fire Marshal to attract candidates that could learn to perform the full duties of the position, or alternatively, utilize the qualifications of the then Fire Chief to perform these duties until the position could be filled. The latter option was exercised, and the position was placed on a budgetary freeze for fiscal year 2024-2025. Page 78 of 140 Fire Division Chief and Fire Marshal January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 4 A second recruitment was posted July 7, 2025 and remains open today. We are experiencing the same issue again, with only a few qualified candidates applying. Currently, staff is recommending an update of the classification specification and increase to the salary range for the Fire Marshal to assist in filling the position. The classification specification was last updated in September 2006. Under the Meyers- Milias Brown Act (MMBA), the City is required to notify SPEA of the intent to update the classification specification and salary for the position and also provide an opportunity to meet and confer on the effects or impacts of the City's decision. The Fire Division Chief is an unrepresented position in the Management and Confidential Series, covered under the Administrative Code. This full-time position is occupied with three incumbents, one for each of the Fire Department work shifts. With the upcoming promotion of a Division Chief incumbent to Fire Chief, a promotional recruitment to fill the vacancy is planned. Prior to opening this closed promotional recruitment, Human Resources worked with the Fire Department to review the classification specification (updated in September 2008) and the exam plan (updated in June 2006). DISCUSSION: Fire Marshal The Fire Marshal prevents fires by enforcing fire codes, inspecting buildings, reviewing construction plans, and educating the public, while also investigating fire causes including arson, to protect life and property. This position supervises three Fire Prevention Specialists who perform inspections. The classification specification was last updated in September 2006. The exam plan consists of a structured technical interview weighted at 100%. Candidates must achieve a score of 70% or higher to be placed on the eligibility list. A review of the classification specification and a survey of the City's comparable cities with Fire Departments (Santa Monica, Culver City, Torrance, and Manhattan Beach) were conducted to determine if adjustments were needed to assist in filling this position. The attached redline document updates the classification specification to the City's standardized format, which includes language regarding the Disaster Service Worker requirement and the City's commitment to being an Equal Opportunity Employer. The top step salary for this position is currently $12,639 per month. While other cities compensate the position at a higher rate than the City of El Segundo, a change to the current salary range must fit within the City's internal classification and compensation structure. Staff recommends the monthly salary be placed at the level of the Environmental Safety Manager, a SPEA represented position in the Fire Department with a similar level of responsibility, compensated at $13,664 per month at the top salary step. This is an increase of $1,025 per month at the top salary step for the Fire Marshal position. The salary placement of the selected individual will vary based on Page 79 of 140 Fire Division Chief and Fire Marshal January 20, 2026 Page 3 of 4 qualifications. On January 12, 2026 the updated Fire Marshal classification specification was sent to SPEA for review. On January 13, 2026, SPEA provided their concurrence with the changes. No changes are recommended to the exam plan; however, it is included with this report for best practices. Fire Division Chief On January 12, 2026, the Human Resources Department sent an email to all City staff announcing an upcoming closed promotional recruitment for the Fire Division Chief within the next thirty days. In preparation for this recruitment, Human Resources worked with the Fire Department to update the classification specification and review the exam plan. The attached redline document revises the classification specification to the City's standardized format and clarifies the education and experience requirements. The existing classification specification requires eight (8) years of experience, including four (4) years as a Fire Captain and a Bachelor's degree for promotional candidates with an additional two years' experience for candidates that are not current City of El Segundo employees. The proposed classification specification standardizes the requirements for all candidates, whether they are City of El Segundo employees or from other outside organizations. The updated classification specification places a heavy emphasis on professional coursework and certification from the California Fire Service Training and Education System (CFSTES) through the Office of the State Fire Marshal (OSFM) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The revised requirements include eight (8) years full-time experience in a professional fire department, including three (3) years as a Fire Captain, an Associate's degree, completion of Incident Command courses 100, 200, 700, and 800, Hazardous Materials First Responder Operations certification, and completion of the Chief Officer certification within twelve (12) months. Several other courses and certifications outlined in the classification specification are highly desirable. In reviewing the exam plan, staff recommends including an oral presentation with the written exercise while maintaining the weight of that component at 20%. The proposed exam plan includes the following: written exercise and presentation- 20%, structured technical interview- 40%, and tactical exercise(s)- 40%. Candidates must achieve a score of 70% or higher on each element to be placed on the eligibility list. Upon City Council approval and adoption of the proposed changes detailed in this report, Human Resources will continue to work with the Fire Department personnel to fill these positions.

Authorize the Chief Financial Officer to release a Request for Proposals for the Water and Wastewater Rate Study. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The FY 2025-26 adopted budget includes $180,000 for the Water and Wastewater Rate Study. If the bid proposals come in higher than the current budget, additional budget appropriation would be necessary. Amount Budgeted in FY 2025-26: $180,000 Additional Appropriation: No Account Number: 501-000-7102-5-56204 ($90,000 in Water Fund), 502-000-4301-5- 56204 ($90,000 Wastewater Fund) Any amount unspent this fiscal year will be carried over to the next fiscal year, until the rate study is finalized. BACKGROUND: The City of El Segundo owns and operates its own water and wastewater collection systems. These operations are set up as separate business enterprise funds, which are distinctly separate (financially) from the City's General Fund. As an enterprise, each operation is responsible for covering its own expenses and likewise generates its own income, making each self -sustainable. However, California's Proposition 218 (The "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" of 1996) governs how municipalities can raise water and wastewater rates to cover the expenses associated with operating each enterprise. Per Proposition 218, rates may be established for up to five years. Thereafter, a new Prop Page 105 of 140 Water and Wastewater Rate Study Request for Proposals January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 3 218 process is required. The last time the City initiated a Prop 218 protest ballot process for water and wastewater rates was in 2021. The ability to raise water and wastewater rates any further has expired. Thus, in order to establish new water and wastewater rates for the next five years, the City must now conduct a new Proposition 218 protest ballot process. The prior study was started in 2019 and presented to the Council in December 2020, at which time the suggested rate increases were approved and a Public Hearing and Prop 218 vote took place in February 2021. The Prop 218 was successful, and the new rates were implemented on April 1, 2021, with subsequent increases on January 1st of 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. The prior rate increases were as follows: Utility FY 20-21 FY 21-22 FY 22-23 FY 23-24 FY 24-25 Water 0% 3% 3% 3% 3% Wastewater 9% 9% 9.5% 9.5% 9.5% Effective Date 4/1 /21 1 /1 /22 1 /1 /23 1 /1 /24 1 /1 /25 DISCUSSION: It is best practice and in the cities and residents' best interests to periodically conduct a Water and Wastewater rate fee study to ensure sufficient funding for continued operations and to ensure fairness in the rates charged. It is fiscally prudent to perform a rate study for the Water and Wastewater rates approximately every five years in order to ensure that the charges collected meet our current and future operating needs, including future infrastructure requirements and expectations, and are in compliance with all laws related to the charges imposed on these fees. Staff is recommending City Council to authorize the Chief Financial Officer to release the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Water and Wastewater rate fee study. Staff will come back to City Council once the RFP is finalized and a consultant is selected to conduct the Water and Wastewater rate fee study. At that time, additional details on the specific timeline and Prop 218 Public Hearing process will be presented to the City Council. The Water and Wastewater rate fee study is anticipated to take 8-10 months to complete. The anticipated timeline for this RFP is as follows: RFP Release Date: January 22, 2026 Proposals Due Date: February 27, 2026 City Council Award: April 7, 2026 Prop 218 Public Hearing: February, 2027 Rate effective date: April 1, 2027 CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Page 106 of 140 Water and Wastewater Rate Study Request for Proposals January 20, 2026 Page 3 of 3 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. Goal 5: Champion Economic Development and Fiscal Sustainability Strategy A: Identify opportunities for new revenues, enhancement of existing revenues, and exploration of potential funding options to support programs and projects.

Page 109 of 140 INTRODUCTION The City of El Segundo Finance Department is seeking proposals from qualified firms/consultants to develop a comprehensive study of the City's Water and Wastewater rates. The study should ensure the City's Water and Wastewater utilities have sufficient, defensible funding to meet operational and capital improvement costs. In addition, the firm is to provide a financial model showing rate impacts created by new capital improvement projects and operational costs and develop a water rate structure that meets financial obligations and encourages more efficient water use. This model shall be used by City staff for future financial planning. PURPOSE To develop a study for Water and Wastewater rate structures to be implemented in April 2027 and used to calculate annual Water and Wastewater rates through 2031. BACKGROUND With our friendly, small-town charm and an ever-growing community of diverse businesses, El Segundo is a thriving coastal community and 5.5 square mile economic powerhouse. El Segundo offers beautiful residential neighborhoods, a vibrant downtown, unequaled connectivity to greater LA, major freeways, three Metro stops, and is just minutes from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The City has a vibrant hospitality sector with fifteen hotels, a welcoming downtown and a variety of restaurants, breweries, and shops. El Segundo is at the epicenter of sports culture and is the only city in America that is home to headquarters and practice facilities for three professional sports teams - the Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Lakers, and the LA Kings. And with nearby SoFi stadium, home to the 2026 World Cup and 2028 Olympics, we are ready to welcome sports enthusiasts from around the world. El Segundo is home to the Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Air Force Base, and several Fortune 500 companies including Boeing, Chevron, L'Oreal, Mattel, and Raytheon. Recognized as the "Aerospace Capital of the World", our vibrant economy includes leaders in aerospace and defense, bioscience, information technology, energy, real estate, and creative media. The City provides a full range of municipal services, including police, fire, public works, planning, building, parks & recreation, and library. Water The City is approximately 5.5 square miles and owns and operates its water distribution system. The City provides and maintains water service to nearly 17,000 residents and an approximately 70,000 people commute into El Segundo for work through approximately 6,000 water service connections. The Water Division operates and maintains approximately 65 miles of water lines. Page 3 of 12 Page 110 of 140 The City supplies an average of approximately 10,000-acre feet of water per year to its water customers and provides reclaimed water for irrigation and industrial purposes. El Segundo is dependent on the Metropolitan Water District as its sole water provider through a long- standing agreement with the West Basin Water District. Since 2021, the City has followed a tiered water rate structure. Water rates include fixed charges per meter size that are uniform for all customer classes, tiered rates for single family residential users, flat rates for multifamily residential users and for commercial and institutional users. The City also has Recycled rates from West Basin which are passed directly on to the use, with a surcharge for Chevron, and a fixed charge for the meter based on meter size. There are also Private Fire Protection Rates where users pay a fixed charge for the meter based on meter size, and appropriate rate for any consumption. In 2020, a water study update was conducted by the City and an outside consultant to address changing factors such as rising water costs and changes to water usage patterns. The rate study update was used for the five-year Water and Wastewater rate adjustment schedule for calendar years 2021 through 2025. Wastewater The El Segundo Wastewater (Sewer) Division, a branch of Public Works, manages the collection and transport of sewage through 57 miles of mains and nine lift stations. The city does not treat waste itself; instead, it funnels approximately 500 million gallons annually to the Hyperion Treatment Plant (LA City) or the Carson Plant (LA County). Key Responsibilities • Maintenance: Operates an automated 24/7 system to prevent blockages and overflows. • Compliance: Manages the Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) program and industrial waste permits. • Infrastructure: Oversees the city's Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) and emergency repairs. The wastewater system is currently funded by a uniform connection fee for residential customers, and a connection fee plus use fee based on water use for multifamily, industrial, and commercial customers. The funds are deposited in an enterprise fund which supports the operations, maintenance, equipment, and capital improvement costs of the sanitary wastewater system. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS The consultant selected to perform a Water and Wastewater rate study shall demonstrate proven experience in Water and Wastewater Rate Studies of similar size and complexity within the last five (5) years. SCOPE OF SERVICES The firm/consultant will analyze the current rate structure, utility operations, and capital Page 4 of 12 Page 111 of 140 needs and provide recommendations on a rate structure and meet with staff to determine what rate structure will be implemented taking into consideration Proposition 218 requirements. In addition, the firm/consultant will provide a rate modeling program with a dashboard to be used by City staff for subsequent years.

Page 132 of 140 OPEB Section 115 Trust Account Transfer January 20, 2026 Page 2 of 4 BACKGROUND: The City of El Segundo ("City") has the following two 115 Trust accounts for the purpose of funding certain retiree obligations: Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) Section 115 Trust: Funds for retiree medical liability are currently administered by California Public Employees' Retirement System (CaIPERS) and assets are held by State Street Bank. • 115 Trust Account for Pension Stabilization: Since 2023, the funds for future pension liabilities have been administrated and managed by Shuster Advisory Group, LLC ("Shuster") and assets are held by Charles Schwab Trust Bank with Alta Trust Company serving as the Directed Trustee. These pension assets were previously administered by Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) and were held by U.S. Bank National Association and managed by HighMark Capital Management, Inc. The change to Schuster resulted in a reduction in fees of 85% or approximately $377,000 over 10 years. In 2019, the City engaged Shuster as the retirement plan consultant and investment fiduciary for the City's 457(b) and 401(a) plans. Shuster subsequently conducted a Request for Proposal (RFP) for administration and recordkeeping services for the plans. The City decided to consolidate assets with a single recordkeeper at a 93% negotiated reduction in record -keeping costs. Also, Shuster purchased highly -rated investments to safeguard the principal investment, implemented an improved investment menu for plan participants, and implemented a comprehensive fiduciary oversight process. Since the transition in January 2020, participants in the plan as a whole have saved approximately $2.2 million from the reduction in recordkeeping fees alone, a 50% reduction in total plan costs, and significant improvement in the quality of the investments available in the retirement plan. This enhancement does not consider any financial gains from improved investments. At the time of conversion, the positive impact to participants due to the combination of the fee reduction and increased interest rates was estimated to be approximately $242,000 over a one-year period; therefore, the actual savings have exceeded the original estimate. Shuster is an independent investment advisory firm and fiduciary. They provide governmental and institutional retirement plan consulting services as well as private wealth management. Shuster is an SEC -Registered Investment Advisor with over $9.5 billion in assets under management focusing on serving the unique needs of governmental agencies and special districts serving over 100 cities, agencies and public entities. Shuster serves as fiduciary to plan investments and provides investment selection, monitoring and management. Page 133 of 140 OPEB Section 115 Trust Account Transfer January 20, 2026 Page 3 of 4 DISCUSSION: Assets in a 115 Trust are irrevocably committed for the government function specific in the applicable trust agreement. Additionally, monies held in such trusts can be invested in accordance with the rules governing those trusts, which are different than the investment rules for the City's pooled investments. Investment restrictions that apply to the general fund of a City (CA Government Code 53601) do not apply to the assets held in an Irrevocable Section 115 Trust, thus allowing for more flexibility in the investment strategy. Setting aside funds in a Section 115 Trust can potentially earn a higher rate of return than funds invested within 53601 guidelines. Shuster created their Section 115 Trust program after analyzing and determining that public agencies were being overcharged and underserved, which has a direct result on the taxpayer -funded savings that a public agency is putting aside for their future obligations. Shuster found that the programs available lacked investment flexibility, customization, transparency, and high-level customer service. As a result, Shuster created and offers a Section 115 Trust program that provides cities with the services they are lacking at a fraction of the cost currently being paid. After reviewing the current CalPERS investment portfolios and services, and Shuster presenting its program to the City Council Finance Committee in November 2025, it was determined that improved investment flexibility, customization, transparency, and service could be achieved by transferring the City's OPEB Section 115 Trust administration and portfolio management to Shuster. Staff's valuation process concluded that the program offered by Shuster provides the greatest flexibility of investment options and the most competitive fees for the comprehensive services the City will receive, including: • Investment Fiduciary services • Consolidated full fee transparency • Customizable investment options • Individual accounts • Daily valuation and account access • Blend of active and passive investment options • Private equity/debt (optional) • Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) compliant reporting • Local dedicated service team • Direct access to Portfolio Management Team The services provided by Shuster are unique with a low-cost transparent structure, high - end service, fiduciary services and investment management. Shuster continues to execute a service model that far exceeds the services the City is currently receiving from CalPERS. Shuster has proven to be responsive, analytical, and a true partner to the City.
