SPECIAL ORDERS OF BUSINESS 1. Public Hearing - Consideration of a resolution to increase fines and fees charged for services at the El Segundo Public Library. Fiscal impact: Estimated $7,000 increase in revenue. Mayor Jacobson announced this was a public hearing for consideration of a resolution to increase fines and fees charged for services at the El Segundo Public Library, and asked if proper notice was done in a timely manner, and if any written E C. communications had been received. Deputy City Clerk Freeman responded that noticing was done by the City Clerk's Office, and no written communications had been received by the City Clerk's Office. Barbara Pearson, Library Director, presented a report to Council regarding the proposed fee /fine schedule changes stating staff has provided the Council with a supplemental report containing clarification in relation to methodology of calculations per their request. Currently, they receive $3,000 per year in revenue from fines and fees, and are requesting an increase in fees. Estimated revenue from increase in fees is approximately $7,000. Mayor ProTem Weston stated he was not in favor of increasing resident fees, and was concerned with abuse of computer services; Councilwoman Friedkin concurred with Mayor ProTem Weston regarding no increases in resident fees; Mayor Jacobson concurred with no increase in resident fees stating the City had always subsidized the library, but did agree with the computer room fee but not other increases; Councilman Switz had no problem with approving the increases. Mayor Jacobson opened public hearing for public comment. Bill McCoy, President of the Library Board of Trustees felt the new fee /fine schedule was reasonable and fair to all parties, and that the Board took into account the economic situation. He referred to Exhibit F stating the large increase pertained to non - resident and corporation/ businesses, and lost/duplicate library cards. Adrian Collins, 770 W. Imperial stated the Morman Geneological Library's system consists of your printing what you want which sends it to the printer behind the service desk and then you pay them ten cents per page. Joe Vittori, 124 W. Oak questioned whether they could track residential and non- residential users; Mayor Jacobson responded it could be done through the library cards and MCLS; Councilwoman Friedkin stated MCLS users are treated the same as residents are because our residents have the same benefit at other MCLS libraries; Mayor ProTem Weston stated he felt the Council concurred in wanting to know if El Segundo has more services offered than other MCLS libraries. City Attorney Dolley stated there are two alternatives for Council. Either continue this hearing far enough into the future in order for Council to give direction to or meet with the Board to resolve the issues, but they run the risk of having to start from the beginning depending upon what action is taken by the Board. City Manager Morrison suggested joint meetings with the Library Board of Trustees, Senior Housing Board, Planning and Recreation & Parks Commissions regarding phylosphy and duties. Also, to schedule and readvertise new public meeting and hearing dates. Mayor Jacobson questioned when the second reference desk check would be completed; Library Director Pearson responded the second survey ends this Friday, and results would be given to the Board next Tuesday evening at their meeting. City Council consensus to agendize October 18 for the scheduling of a joint meet- ing with the Library Board of Trustees. Joint meeting with the Library Board of Trustees to consist of discussion of philosophy and direction. Board is to review and revise fines and fees schedule accordingly, and prepare new resolution, and staff to schedule new public meeting and public hearing if appropriate at a future date. Also schedule at a future date, joint meetings with the Senior Housing Board, Planning Commission, and Recreation & Parks Commission. MOVED by Councilman Robbins; SECONDED by Councilwoman Friedkin to close the public hearing. MOTION PASSED BY UNANIMOUS VOICE VOTE 510. Coun- cilman Swtiz stated he was not in favor of starting the public meeting and hearings over. UNFINISHED BUSINESS Ordinance amending Chapter 5.36, Title 5, of the El Segundo Municipal Code regarding reguiation of Invitation -At -Large parties. 3 Mayor Jacobson questioned the definition and what would be covered; City Attorney Dolley responded that one solution could be to limit it to certain areas of the City. Mayor Jacobson stated the way the ordinance reads now includes charitable organizations, business which already have a license for doing similar things, or something in that nature and this could create problems for them; City Attorney Dolley concurred stating it would have to be a party that is open to the public and admission is charged. Further stating, the fastest way would be to limit to certain areas of the City or possibly create language which would exempt charitable organizations, etc. Councilman Switz suggested the ordinance be written to allow certain organiza- tions, etc. to do this on an annual basis to cover several functions at different locations; Mayor Jacobson responded that it would be a possibility. Councilman Robbins stated he wished to see a law that does not require a selective enforcement which also implies some form of discrimination, but intent is written to weed out the undesirable types of parties that result in the problems we have had and not affect the types that are desirable. Also would like to see it cover residential as well as commercial real estate in town. Discussion followed. City Attorney Dolley stated he understood the Council wished to prevent the rave party, and would like to define more narrowly so we don't inadvertedly get the other types of parties. Mayor Jacobson concurred adding they wished to have a clearly written ordinance which would be easily enforced, and would create an enforcement tool for the Police Department to use. Council does not want to have selective enforcement on it. City Attorney Dolley stated this was up for a second reading and would need to be started over again with a first reading. City Council consensus for City Attorney to revise language to minimize loopholes regarding non -profit groups and businesses, and to submit to Council for first reading at a future date. 2.

Councilman Robbins stated he would make approval with discussion stating he wanted to point out that the St. Anthony's Annual Carnival has been a very long and good tradition in this town and he intends to support it as such, and urged people to patrionize this wonderful event which he viewed as a service to the community and children, but do not view his support for some of our traditional events as being blanket approval for every organization to request the City to subsidize public funds. MOVED by Councilman Robbins; SECONDED by Councilwoman Friedkin to approve request for permit from St. Anthony's Church to hold a carnival, and to waive the associated fees. MOTION PASSED BY THE FOLLOWING VOICE VOTE 3/012 -AYES: MAYOR JACOBSON, COUNCILMAN ROBBINS AND COUNCILWOMAN FRIEDKIN. NOES: NONE. NOT - PARTICIPATING: MAYOR PRO TEM WESTON AND COUNCIL- MAN SWITZ. 5. Memorandum of Understanding between the City of El Segundo and the General Employees Association. Fiscal impact: Funds are available in the City's FY 1994 -95 budget for the 2% salary adjustment. Councilman Switz stated he would like to get an item in this to request that the City Council get involved in the overall finances of the City a lot better than in the past before future labor discussions come up. Councilman Robbins stated he was going to approve of this MOU because it had already been negotiated, but pointed out this and other previously approved MOUs extends a benefit to significant others which he personally opposes that concept because of feeling that benefit should be reserved for family members. In the future he would like to see benefits reserved for the employees and their families. MOVED by Mayor Pro Tern Weston; SECONDED by Councilwoman Friedkin to approve Memorandum of Understanding City Contract Number 2370. MOTION PASSED BY UNANIMOUS VOICE VOTE 510. 5 6. Renewal of Agreement with Liebert, Cassidy and Frierson, a Professional Corporation. Fiscal impact estimated at $25,000. Councilman Switz stated he had already made his comments earlier.

Agreement between the City and Woodward -Clyde Consultants for development of a Storm Water Program Implementation Manual (total fixed fee study cost of $30,000). Councilman Switz questioned why this study was being done; Councilwoman Friedkin questioned why the cost was so high. City Attorney Dolley responded stating that the City is engaged in litigation with the National Resources Defense Council as announced on their closed session agenda, and the study is part of the proposed resolution of that litigation which would become final in the very near future, and would be announced at that time should it become final. The agreement is required under the proposed settlement by the NRDC as being a proper methodology for the City to go forward with the Storm Water Program Implementation Manual. His understanding that this was a company which does this in a regular manner, and can do what has been asked and required by the NRDC in order to resolve the case at that price. Councilman Robbins questioned whether this Storm Water Implementation Program Manual is required by any laws or strictly by the settlement to the lawsuite to the NRDC; City Manager Morrison responded that may not not be directly addressed, it is a portion of the NPDS provisions of the federal law; City Attorney Dolley concurred adding that although not precisely in terms of implenetation manual you do have to have an implementation plan for it, and this does take the place of that. MOVED by Councilman Switz; SECONDED by Councilman Robbins to approve Agreement Number 2372 with Woodward -Clyde Consultants for development of a storm water program implementation manual for a fixed fee study cost of $30,000. MOTION PASSED BY UNANIMOUS VOICE VOTE 510. 8. Approve request for secondary signage at the Douglas Street/Rosecrans Avenue Green Line station which states "Serving Continental Park." Fiscal impact: -0 -. Councilwoman Friedkin questioned if this sign reflected Continental Development Corporation itself because the rules state signs could not be named after a business or corporation and CDC gave $100,000 for art and six months complimentary office space for five station artists then later requested signage. Hughes, Xerox, and Allied have also contributed a great deal and if they wanted signage up would this be something the Council wants to get into. Mayor Jacobson responded it was not named after a business or corporation, and referred to the section which explains secondary signs. The Rail Construction Corporation was asking the City if we had any objections to it, and the MTA was making the final decision. Councilman Robbins stated objections to it because he did not think government should be using tax payers money to show favortism to some businesses over others, and felt it was more appropriate for the signage to simply say the two street names where the station is located or state the City of El Segundo; Councilwoman Friedkin concurred. Mayor ProTem Weston felt because it was a designation of a location that it was usable and a resonable request; Mayor Jacobson concurred. MOVED by Councilman Switz; SECONDED by Mayor ProTem Weston - Discussion called by Councilman Robbins. Liz Gamholz, resident stated she had a problem with this request, and that she concurred with Councilwoman Friedkin. 2 Councilwoman Friedkin stated she did not want to participate in encouraging or furthering one corporate endeavor in the community over others. Councilman Robbins stated for the public record that he supports that every green line station in the City of El Segundo have signage indicating that people disembarking from those light rail cars are in the City of El Segundo. Felt many of the residents and business people in town are concemed about crime especially now that the 1 -105 freeway is open, and will be even more concemed once the green line opens. Also, felt it was essential that it is very clear to people taking the green line into our town that they are in fact in El Segundo. The Police Department regularly tells him that they arrest people who did not know they had strayed across the border into El Segundo and are very surprised when they get arrested so quickly. He wants it made quite clear to those people riding the green line that they are within El Segundo City limits, and therefore he felt the signage at every green line station should clearly state City of El Segundo. Mayor Jacobson Called The Question: MOTION PASSED BY THE FOLLOWING VOICE VOTE 312 - AYES: MAYOR JACOBSON, MAYOR PRO TEM WESTON, AND COUNCILMAN SWITZ. NOES: COUNCILWOMAN FRIEDKIN AND COUNCILMAN ROBBINS. Staff to notify MTA of approval. F. NEW BUSINESS - CITY MANAGER 1. Proposed program to enhance City's efforts to recruit lateral entry Police Officers. Fiscal impact: Program results in cost savings. City Manager Morrison presented a report stating they had proposed to the Council a change in their administrative rules employment method which they felt would enhance their ability to recruit lateral transfers. Mayor ProTem Weston stated he felt the concept was great and applaud the Police Chief for bringing it before the Council because it is something that needs to be done to provide an incentive to bring in lateral transfers into the department, but questioned how they plug up the potentials for problems where we are providing some 960 hours of sick leave which can be brought into the City. Also, questioned reimbursement from the academy and whether there was a time limit. Bob Hyland, Director of Human Resources /Risk Management, responded the employee is under probation and the department would be monitoring the employees attendance. As currently written, there is a time limit of two years from date of appointment with regards to reimbursement from the academy. City Manager Morrison suggested modifying the policy to state the sick leave an employee brings with them could be used for sick leave purposes only and never be able to cash it out; Council concurred. Councilwoman Friedkin stated she was enthusiastic about this but wanted to get input from some of the rank in file who would be working with them, and had concern with lateral transfers since 1991. Police Chief Grimmond stated they had received input from the association and laterial officers which expressed concem in wanting to be treated the same as the new laterial officers since there were presently only five of them on staff. Councilman Robbins stated he liked the overall concept but was concerned about the sick leave being transferred to the City and the possibility that the employee may cash out this sick leave prior to coming to the City and benefit twice; Mr. Hyland stated that in the attached resolution it references the City would credit any unreimbursed portions, and through trading paperwork with the City the employee was leaving it would be prevented from happening. City Council consensus for staff to revise resolutions and schedule revised resolu- tions for October 18 meeting. Revisions to include sick leave bank to be used for sick leave purposes only and not as a payoff, contract to be entered into to provide return of bonus if person leaves within a set period of time, return of bonus to be withheld from final payroll check. No decision made on issue of retroactivity to 1991 lateral hires Councilwoman Friedkin requested discussion with rank- and -file. 7 G. NEW BUSINESS - CITY ATTORNEY - NONE H. NEW BUSINESS - CITY CLERK - NONE 1. NEW BUSINESS - CITY TREASURER - NONE J. NEW BUSINESS AND REPORTS - CITY COUNCILMEMBERS Councilwoman Friedkin - NONE Councilman Robbins - NONE Councilman Switz 1. At a recent meeting, Council voted to delay a decision regarding changing the next election date to June 1995. A subsequent analysis from the Clerk's office indicates this date is too late if a November 1995 election is to be considered. Also, it is not clear what the plan is for soliciting input from the public as to which they prefer. Councilman Switz stated since the meeting where Council deferred decision regarding the change of the election date, the City Clerk had come out with an analysis which indicated if the decision is deferred until June 1995 then we could not have an election in November 1995. Council chose a date which I inferred would allow still a choice between November of 1995 and March 1997, but the City Clerk has stated you cannot do it that way, and questioned which was correct. Mayor ProTem Weston responded that he believed under parlimentary procedure you could only bring back an issue to discuss it only if you voted in the affirmative first. After working it out on the calendar and discussiing it with the City Manager, he felt the City Clerk's logic was that she would like to have a space of time in there to make mistakes, and had not presented any information which was specific as to why she believed that. On the contrary, all of the information of the required dates that would make the election in November 1995, are available and could be put on the calendar. Due to Councilman Switz not being at that meeting where the decision was made, and the City Clerk not being present this evening, he did not know how they could discuss the issue. Councilman Switz stated since he was not present at that meeting, he felt he was in his right to ask the question. There are two dates and both cannot be correct, and after watching the meeting tape there was no mention how Council would get input from the public as to what their preference was. Councilman Robbins stated the legal requirement is that the City Council needed to notify the voters of what the new election date would be if the date was changed, and this notice would have to go out after - not before - the City Council made the decision. Also, we have two conflicting opinions coming from the City Attorney and City Clerk, and he would tend to go with the City Attorney's opinion. Mayor ProTem Weston stated the City Clerk was in favor of the later date because she felt the school one was not an option but later decided it was, and the Council had discussed the issue and determined there was a lack of good information available which was why the decision was postponed so that they could get a more exhaustive and complete study before making a decision. Discussion followed. No action taken. June 6, 1994 is the last legal date to select election date. City Attorney advised June 6 for first reading; June 20 for second reading; and ordi- nance goes into effect immediately. 2. Requested to agendize for October 18 meeting a discussion and proposal for staff to volunteer 40 working day hours using the scanner to listen to tower instructions and involve community volunteers. Mayor Pro Tern Weston 1. Stated he was unable to attend the opening ceremony for the Valley /Holley park due to being out of town, but had received compliments on the design of the park. He complimented staff for their speed and design of the park. 8 Mayor Jacobson 1.
