EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: March 4, 1997
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Special Orders of Business
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of El Segundo adopting a schedule of fees for underground tank
inspections, as provided for in Ordinance No. 1264 and an Ordinance of the City of El Segundo Amending Section
7.20.040 of the El Segundo Municipal Code Relating to Permit Fees for Industrial Waste Disposal (fiscal impact -
estimated $60,565.14 increased annual revenue).
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1. Open Public Hearing.
2. Council discussion.
3. Adopt Resolution establishing Underground Tank Fees.
4. Introduce Ordinance Relating to Industrial Waste Fees.
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND:
Ordinance No. 1264 was unanimously passed at the February 4, 1997 Council meeting to assume hazardous
material and hazardous waste regulatory oversight responsibilities from Los Angeles County pursuant to Senate Bill
1082. Upon State certification of the City as a "Certified Unified Program Agency" or C.U.P.A., the City will inspect
all underground tanks for compliance with State regulations and is authorized to recover its cost of implementing
this program.
Additionally, the City contracts with Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LACDPW) for industrial waste
inspection services. The program is designed to protect the City's sewer system by monitoring the discharge of
commercial/ industrial users. The fees collected by the City to pay for these services were adopted on January 6,
1987 and have never been updated.
DISCUSSION:
Discussion begins on the next page.....

DISCUSSION:
Adoption of the attached resolution would recover the City's costs to implement the underground tank program and
reflects the same fees currently being assessed by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works.
The El Segundo Public Works Department has reviewed the Industrial Waste Program and found that the present
fee structure does not generate enough revenue to reimburse the City for the costs we incur. In fiscal year 1995/96,
the City paid to LACDPW $53,367.29 while collecting only $12,802.15 This resulted in an additional expenditure of
$40,565.14 by the City. Staff is proposing that the City adopt the same fee structure utilized by LACDPW in order to
eliminate the additional expenditure.

MEMORANDUM" ._
February 12, 1997
T0: City Council
FR: Liam Weston
Jane Friedkin
RE: Aerospace Study on Agenda
The previous City Council analyped the various methods available for tracking plumes
and sources of pollution over our city. Among the companies interviewed was the
Aerospace Corporation here in El Segundo. As you may already know, the Acrsopacc
Corporation is a non- profit quasi - government organization commonly known in the
defense industry as an FFRDC.
We discovered the Aerospace Corporation's capabilities in the area of remote sensing and
spectral analysis far exceeded even the technologies known to the AQMD and other
environmental agencies. We initially approached the Aerospace Corporation about
providing information regarding emissions from Hyperion and especially what are known
w "il►gitive emissions" that may be coming yet unidentified sources on the facility.
We have placed this item back on the agenda for discussion and adoption to begin a study
of the pollution over El Segundo. The purpose of the study is to determine a baseline of
particulants in the air over our city as a result of both the Hyperion and the airport. The
specialty of the Aerospace defense technology is the passive sensor's ability to track the
source of a plume thus determining the cause of the pollution. Aerospace Corporation
also owns proprietary software that provides real time analysis of the various signatures
put out by different chemical substances.
We believe this scientific data will be invaluable to the city if we need to oppose the
expansion of LAX on the basis of the increase in pollution over El Segundo. We would
also like to request the City Council approve an additional $10,000 for an envirotunental
consultant (ay determined by staff) to evaluate the data, collect samples from roof tops
and swimming pools and also provide a report.
The consultant's report can provide us the comparative data required to make an informed
decision as to the severity of the problem. I believe the Aerospace quote for the
Hyperion/Airport analysis is $35,000. 'Che total cost of both efforts would be capped by
the City Council not to exceed $45,000. The staff can be given direction to hire the
consultant and negotiate the terms of the analysis by Aerospace Corporation.

DISCUSSION: (corrtlnued)
The Traffic Committee's investigation indicated that the intersection did not warrant four -way stop signs

signs. The Traffic Committee's report is enclosed.
The Traffic Committee is requesting City Council authorization to install stop signs for eastbound and

INTER- DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
DATE February 10, 1997
SUBJECT Traffic Committee Report on Four -Way Stop Sign Request
at the intersection of Maple Avenue and
Eu lyptu ' e
Prepared by
Bellur Dev raj, City Engineer Sgt. Al G am, Police Department
Background:
A request from two (2) residents to install stop signs for eastbound and westbound Maple Avenue
traffic from two residents was received by the Traffic Committee. Currently northbound and
southbound Eucalyptus Drive traffic have stop signs. The reasons for the request given by the
residents was excessive speeds on Maple Avenue and the difficulty of seeing eastbound Maple
Avenue traffic by vehicles northbound on Eucalyptus Drive which have stopped at the stop sign.
Discussion:
1. A four -way stop sign warrant study (enclosed) based on Caltrans Traffic Manual failed to
justify the requested stop signs.
2. The Traffic Committee does not recommend installation of stop signs as a speed
controlling device. The committee considers speed control as a Police Enforcement
issue.
3. The Traffic Committee further investigated residents concerns
adequate
sight distance for northbound Eucalyptus Drive and it findings are as follows: • Northbound Eucalyptus Drive has an average thirteen vehicles\hour for the
heaviest eight hours of a typical weekday. The maximum northbound traffic was
noted as 31 vehicles\hour during the morning peak hour between 7:45 a.m. and
8:45 a.m. probably due to the vicinity of the intersection to the El Segundo High
School.
The prima facie speed limit on Maple Avenue is 25 mph. Using a speed of 30
mph for sight distance calculation, the ideal stopping sight distance for Maple
Avenue traffic is 195 feet. Currently, due to parked cars and parkway trees, the
available stopping sight distance for eastbound Maple Avenue traffic is less than
100 feet.
0 056
Traffic Committee Report
February 10, 1997
Page 2
(continued)
Currently, the sight distance is obstructed by several parkway trees and parked
vehicles on the southside of Maple Avenue west of Eucalyptus Drive. Removal
of street parking on the southside (up to four spaces) to improve the sight distance
will result in a significant loss of street parking for the residents, since currently
parking is prohibited on the nouthside of Maple Avenue. Several southside
parkway trees also will have to be removed in conjunction with removal of
parking. The Traffic Committee does not recommend the removal of parkway
trees and southside parking to improve sight distance.
Even though the enclosed warrant analysis did not show the required five
accidentslyear, two accidents (one on 2/25/94 and one on 2/07/95) have occurred.
The Traffic Committee is of the opinion that these two accidents could have been
of a type susceptible to correction by four way stop signs.
Recommendation:
Even though the intersection does not warrant four -way stop signs solely on the basis of Caltrans
warrant study and for speed control, the Traffic Committee feels that the unique conditions at this
location warrant additional consideration. The Committee feels that the physical characteristics
identified in #3 above demonstrates that, when taking all the factors into account at this location,
conditions exist which justify additional mitigation. Therefore, the Traffic Committee recommends
installation of stop signs for eastbound and westbound Maple Avenue traffic to improve the
existing available sight distance for northbound Eucalyptus Drive traffic.

Inter - Departmental Correspondence
February 25, 1997
To: James W. Morrison, City Manager
From: Tim Grimmond, Chief of Pol' 6
Subject: Communications System Study
PROPOSAL
The Police Department is requesting approval to conduct a study of communications system options
for the City's public safety departments. This study will assist the City in determining the optimal
approach for future dispatching and communications services.
The Warner Group, a Woodland Hills consulting firm with an established background in public
safety communications, has proposed an approach that would assess the City's needs and prepare
a comprehensive, unbiased analysis to determine, both operationally and financially, the most
practical communications solution.
BACKGROUND
The dispatch services for the police and fire departments are currently performed by the South Bay
Regional Public Communications Authority ( SBRPCA). This entity has been in existence since
1977 and is in dire need of facility and equipment upgrades. The Hawthorne School District, current
owner of the building which houses the Authority, has advised the SBRPCA of future expansion
plans and has requested the facility be vacated within 18 months. Due to these requirements, the
SBRPCA is in the initial stages of researching and designing a new communications system which
is proposed to be implemented in August, 1998. This proposal includes upgrades for the facility,
computer hardware, radios, Computer Aided Dispatching (CAD), Records Management System
(RMS), Mobile Data Computer (MDC) system, and a new telephone system. Estimates for
renovation of the Authority are indicating a financial commitment well beyond early projections.
Funding sources for this major renovation, however, have not been determined.
Earlier, in an effort to increase efficiency and promote local control, our Police and Fire
Departments proposed the establishment of an in -house communications center within the Police
facility. The proposal incorporated the potential for contracting with surrounding South Bay
agencies as a means to defray expenses and generate revenues. A needs assessment and subsequent
release of an RFP for equipment resulted in unexpectedly high costs which dictated that alternative
solutions be explored. Under the circumstances, this presents an opportune time to examine all
available options to address the City's public safety communications needs.

Page 2
In researching consulting firms knowledgeable in the field of public safety operations, a number of
vendors were considered. The Warner Group has provided professional consulting services to
government and industry for over 17 years. They have assisted many public agencies in developing
improved communications systems and are familiar with the applications involved in police and fire
systems. They have proposed an interdisciplinary approach to analyzing the operational, financial
and organizational aspects of El Segundo's public safety communications needs. The company has
estimated approximately 370 hours over a period of fourteen weeks will be required to complete the
work program. Based on an hourly rate of $145 plus expenses in the amount of $5,300 the total
projected cost would not exceed $58,950. The Warner Group possesses the necessary expertise to
provide a report that will present all potential options on which the Council can ultimately base their
decision.
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that Council authorize funding and, subject to City Attorney approval, enter into
contract with The Warner Group to complete a study of public safety communications system
options. This study would be funded by Asset Forfeiture funds earmarked for the Computer Project
and the E -911 System Project.

Laura S. Lee and I enjoyed meeting with you and the other members of City management
to discuss the El Segundo Police and Fire Department's dispatch and emergency communications
issues. We are pleased to submit our proposal to assist the City in determining whether ongoing
participation in the current consolidated dispatch center or establishing an alternative solution
provides the optimal approach for meeting the specific needs of the City of El Segundo. Our
proposal is based upon the information provided to us during our recent meeting, our extensive
knowledge of regional and consolidated public safety dispatch centers, and our experience in
assisting other cities and counties in similar assignments.
BACKGROUND
Due to their desire to streamline and simplify the emergency communications and dispatch
operations throughout the region, the Police and Fire Departments for the City of El Segundo
believe now is an opportune time to examine alternatives to their present participation in the
consolidated South Bay Communications Center. Sharing dispatch communications, equipment,
facilities and operations has in the past reduced costs and improved service levels, public safety
coordination and mutual aid operations throughout the region. In anticipation of significant
required investments to update technology and facilities, the City is seeking the assistance of a
qualified consulting firm to develop a Public Safety Communications Center Assessment. In
general, the City wishes to:
ELS "].WPD 0 065
Chief Tim Grimmond
El Segundo Police Department
February 20, 1997
Page 2
• Develop a strategy to implement improved public safety communications and
dispatch systems
• Provide for improved cross jurisdictional and mutual aid operations
• Address each individual agency's technical and operational issues
• Promote the sharing of resources where appropriate
• Ensure that current or emerging dispatching technologies are anticipated and
appropriate system decisions are made
• Consider the pending FCC refarming proposals and their potential impact upon
agency operations
• Accommodate the level and degree of integration and coordination required between
the agencies
• Facilitate standardization of technological resources
• Address the management control issues relating to implementing new shared
systems and ensure that the "people factor" is carefully considered
• Emphasize the need for open architecture in technology wherever practical to guard
against obsolescence
• Continue to utilize the present investment in systems infrastructure to the greatest
degree feasible without compromising any potential benefits of combining resources
• Encourage the implementation of these changes in a timely but cost effective man-
ner
The City recognizes that to successfully conduct the analysis, the consultant must possess
relevant experience and outstanding interdisciplinary resources. The remainder of this proposal
outlines The Warner Group's approach to assisting the City in meeting these objectives. An
overview of our Qualifications and Commitment are presented in Appendix A.
APPROACH
In providing this assistance, we would follow a planned study approach, as follows:
ELS 0001. WPD
066
Chief Tim Grimmond
El Segundo Police Department
February 20, 1997
Page 3
1. Conduct Project Kick -Off Meeting - As a first step, we would conduct a detailed
assignment planning meeting with the City's project team. We would discuss key
milestone dates, finalize personnel to be interviewed, organize logistics and resolve
any other project- related issues that may arise. In addition, we would review and
obtain approval for the project control and status reporting methodology. Typically,
we prepare and present detailed status reports every three to four weeks. During
these status meetings, we review accomplishments, discuss current findings and
issues, update the project plan and timetable, and review the next steps in the
project. In this way, the study team is fully apprized of all issues and avoids
"surprises" during the course of the project.
2. Review Background Documentation - We would review all appropriate
documentation provided by the City to gain an understanding of the current
environment and contractual agreements. We also would review any past studies
or reports conducted by the South Bay Communications Center. We would use this
review process to derive as much information as possible about work volumes,
system configurations, maintenance costs, organizational approach and the overall
communications center budget.
3. Survey Present Systems and Operation - Upon completion of the documentation
review, we would survey the current consolidated communications center opera-
tions, staffing, facilities and equipment. The purpose of this review is to obtain any
necessary information which was not discovered during document review and to
thoroughly understand and assess the current environment. Included in our assess-
ment would be the following:
• Call For Service Volumes
• Voice Radio Systems
• Paging, Signaling and Alerting
• Existing Computer Systems and Equipment
• Computer Aided Dispatch
• Records Management Systems
• Consoles and Radio System Access
• 9 -1 -1 Emergency Telephone
• Logging and Recording Equipment
• Administrative Telephone Systems
• Staffing Levels
• Operating Casts
• Existing Organizational Structure
• Dispatcher Shift Scheduling, Training Programs, etc.
• Communication with External Agencies
• Key Statistical Measures

Chief Tim Grimmond
E1 Segundo Police Department
February 20. 1997
Page 4
We would request that any detailed information regarding existing systems, costs,
staffing, facilities not provided for the initial documentation review be made
available to us.
4. Conduct Management Interviews - We would interview key management personnel
of the E1 Segundo Police and Fire Departments, the City of El Segundo and each of
the other agencies participating in the current dispatch consolidation to gain an
insight into the issues facing the Center. We would discuss such issues as
performance expectations, degree of satisfaction, long -term goals and objectives,
and others. We also would discuss the major needs and priorities for the Center and
for the City of El Segundo as seen by departmental management.
5. Document Service Demand Patterns and Trends - Based upon our interviews, fact -
finding and review of present population and demographic projections, we would
develop service level projections for three, five and ten year intervals. We also
would document the present and future activity volume statistics in order to gauge
the required organizational and system configurations.
6. Determine Communications Systems and Facilities Needs- Through our systems
and operations review, as well as management interviews, we would develop an
understanding of future plans and needs, as well as the interrelationships of system
users.
Our primary purpose during this step would be to identify the types of required
communication system features and capabilities as well as the supporting
organization and processes that would result in improved operations. We also
would identify functions and requirements unique to the City of El Segundo. We
would attempt to identify the nature and probability of systems, organizational and
cost issues the Center could experience in the future based upon implementation of
the currently envisioned plans.
We would utilize the information regarding the specific needs and requirements of
the City of El Segundo to form the basis for the analysis of the emergency
communications alternatives for the City. Relying primarily on selected interviews
but also using questionnaires and other data collection forms if appropriate, we
would develop a needs assessment. The needs assessment would address:
• Growth Projections
• Existing and Desired Service Levels
• Projected Changes in Demographics and Service Areas
• High -level Systems and Communication Needs:
- Radio Communications Interface
- Consoles
- E9 -1 -1
- Computer Aided Dispatch

Chief Tim Grimmond February 20. 1997
El Segundo Police Department Page 5
- Records Management
- Other Technology
• Facilities Requirements
- Space Allocation
- Workstations
We also would carefully consider any unique ADA, geographical, public access,
security or other requirements that are appropriate.
7. Consider Alternative Combined Technical Approaches - During this activity, we
would utilize the results of the preceding steps to prepare a general design of the
appropriate technologies to support the City of El Segundo emergency
communications operations. The conceptual model of the systems would be in
sufficient detail to facilitate the technical and operational comparison of the
available alternative approaches. We would consider various stand alone and
regional approaches, including:
• Computer Aided Dispatch
• Records Management Systems
• Voice Radio Communications
• Mobile Data Radio
• Mobile Computing
• Signaling and Alerting
• Microwave Infrastructure
• Emergency and Administrative Telephone
• Integration and Interfaces with Other Regional or Local Systems
• Emergency Back -up Options
• Open Architecture Options
• Other Agencies' Ability to Utilize Systems
• Standardization and Centralization
• Systems and Data Security
• Maintenance and Service Options
• Other Appropriate Technologies
8. Analyze Emergency Dispatch Communications Center Options - At this point in
the study, we would consider the various options for meeting the specific emergency
communications requirements for the City of El Segundo. Based upon our review
of the existing operations, future objectives and goals, as well as service .level
projections, we would analyze the alternative communications center options,
including:
• Maintain the Current JPA Structure
• Develop a Standalone El Segundo Center
• Partial Use of Shared Systems
• Contract to Other Regional Agencies
ELS_0001. WPD
0 069
Chief Tim Grimmond February 20. 1997
El Segundo Police Department Page 6
• Contract with Other Centers
• Others
For each option, we would examine several criteria including:
• Operational Control
• Accountability
• Responsiveness
• Cost Effectiveness
• Simplicity
• Technology Utilization
• Resource Availability
• Staffing and Organization
• Flexibility
• Future Needs
• Critical Success Factors
9. Prepare Initial Budget Analysis - Next, we would prepare an economic analysis of
the developmental and operating costs associated with the primary options analyzed
above. This final detailed cost analysis would focus on the most likely two or three
options. The analysis would include both one -time and recurring costs on a one,
three and five -year basis. In preparing the budget analysis, we would develop
expected cost data based upon the existing operations, as well as our experience
with many other agencies with whom we have worked.
10. Develop Implementation Plan - We would prepare a written plan for the develop-
ment and implementation of improved emergency communications for the City of
El Segundo. We would recommend a sequence of tasks with respect to mutually
agreed upon criteria. In developing the plan, consideration would be given to
agency priorities, ease of conversion, effect upon current operations, facility
remodeling schedules and other factors. The plan would be supported by the
information gathered during the previous tasks.
11. Recommend Optimal Approach - At this point of our study, we would finalize our
research and analysis to present the optimal emergency communications center
approach for the City of El Segundo. We would base our recommendation on our
review of current systems and operations, future objectives and goals, and projected
budget comparisons for the primary alternatives.
12. Prepare and Present Final Report - After the preceding work is completed, we
would incorporate all of our findings and recommendations into a final written
report describing the approach to the optimal communications center structure. We
would list an action plan of the tasks required to implement the recommended

10. Responsive Client Service - As with all of our clients, we will commit to providing
an extremely high level of service to the E1 Segundo Police and Fire Departments.
We regularly conduct assignments throughout the United States and Canada. Our
consulting approach emphasizes a close working relationship with our clients and
considerable on -site presence during each phase of a project. We are fully
committed to providing the same level of availability and responsiveness that we
have given to over 250 public agencies.
PROFESSIONAL TLVE AND FEES
Our professional fees are based upon the amount of time needed to complete the proposed
assignment in a thorough manner. We estimate that 370 hours over a period of 14 weeks will
be required to complete the outlined work program. Based upon our composite hourly rate of
$145, our professional fees would be $53,650. We are also reimbursed for actual out -of- pocket
costs such as travel, report production, telephone and other associated expenses. We would
commit to limiting our expenses to $5,300 for this assignment. Thus, our not -to- exceed costs
for the project would be $58,950. As is our usual practice, we would bill the City of El Segundo
monthly as work progresses.
PROJECT PERSONNEL
Due to the importance we attach to this engagement, only the Principals and experienced
Consultants of The Warner Group would perform the work. Mr. Steven L. Buckley, a Principal
of the firm, would have ultimate responsibility for the successful completion of this project. Ms.
Laura S. Lee. a Manager, would serve as Project Manager and have responsibility for all on -site
activities. Mr. Fred Leland and Mr. Steven Crystal would be our principal consultants. Mr.
Howard J. Goodman, also a Principal of the firm, would perform an independent technical
review of the work. All have extensive experience in similar studies. They would be assisted
as necessary by other experienced specialists in public safety dispatch, communications and
information systems, facilities, dispatch operations and organizational analysis. Biographical

BENEFITS TO THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
We believe that as a result of retaining our firm and following our planned study approach,
significant benefits should be realized by the City of El Segundo. A number of these are as
follows:
• The Departments' emergency dispatch needs would be carefully assessed and a
comprehensive analysis of the configuration and approaches would be conducted.
• Our unique interdisciplinary approach should ensure that the technical, organiza-
tional and operational aspects of the project are carefully considered.
• The Departments would benefit from the information and insight that we have
gained performing similar assignments for other agencies. Additionally, we are
extremely familiar with the emerging dispatch technologies that will be in common
use in coming years.
• The study will provide the facts necessary for the City to determine that the plans
are both operationally and technically practical.
• The City would gain from the extremely high level of service and responsiveness
we provide our clients.
• A well- conceived implementation plan should assist in effecting a smooth and
orderly implementation. Also, the plan would outline a phased approach to
achieving the project's goals.
• The City's unique public safety requirements would be clearly defined. In this
manner, the Police and Fire Departments should avoid the unpleasant surprises that
often result from a "trial and error" approach.
• The Warner Group is able to assist the City during all subsequent work steps to help
ensure that the project is totally satisfactory.
In summary, we believe our firm is best qualified to assist the City of El Segundo in this
important assignment and we wish to assure you that we are fully committed to its successful
completion.

following references, and the skills of the personnel to be assigned to this project amply demon-
strate the emergency communications, information systems and project management
qualifications of The Warner Group.

of neighboring cities, most cities bill on average approximately
$400 per transport (this is a figure that averages the typical
costs associated with transporting). In the City of El Segundo, we
transport approximately 60 -90 people per month, with approximately
two - thirds of these individuals being residents of El Segundo.
Assuming we implement this plan, our anticipated annual revenue
could be as great as $350,000 - $450,000.
At a time when we must look for revenue in order to pay for City
services, we cannot afford to provide this service, which has
direct expense to the City, for a minimal expense or free. In
order to avoid any hardship, I would recommend our plan does not
require residents to pay for fees above what normally would be
covered by their medical or automobile insurance coverage.
