The CMP requires that local agencies demonstrate a positive balance of CMP credits to

agency has failed to offset development traffic impacts by transportation improvement
strategies MTA is required to report this non - conformance with the CMP requirement
to the State Controller who is then required to withhold that City's State Gasoline Tax
allocations until that particular City is found to be in compliance with the CMP.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 1, 2000
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING- Unfinished Business
AGENDA DESCRIPTION' Review and possible action regarding the AOUTime
Warner (cable operator) change of control
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1 Discussion re AOLMme Warner change of control application
2 Adopt resolution conditionally approving the transfer
3 Direct staff as to how to proceed with financial audit re AOL[TIme
Warner
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION,
There are three pending Issues regarding the City's cable television franchise
that have gained the Council's attention in the past few months as a result of a
proposed change In control with respect to the AOL/Time Warner cable operator
merger These are 1) the possibility of unpaid franchise fees being owed to the
City, 2) a possible failure of Paragon Cable to obtain the City's permission to
transfer the franchise to Time Warner Communications In 1995, and 3) the issue
of requiring "open access" to cable -based data networks These Issues are
discussed In detail below
1 Current Change of Control For AOL/Time Warner Merger
Earlier this year, it was announced that America Online, Inc. (AOL) and
Time Warner, Inc. (TWI) intended to merge, forming a new company known as
AOL Time Warner (AOLITW) Because this would create a new parent company
for Time Warner Communications (TWC), it results in a change of control for El
Segundo's cable franchise As

required by federal law, TWC filed with the City a Form 394 containing Information necessary
for the City to review the request for change of control and grant its consent
The City Attorney's office submitted a letter to TWC on May 2, 2000 requesting
additional information, and TWC's legal counsel provided a response on May 25, 2000 The
City also retained the services of Telecommunications Management Corporation (TMC) to
review the Form 394, and their report was received on May 3, 2000. TMC is the same company
that carried out the 1995 audit of franchise fees Copies of the letters are attached. Copies of
TMC's report and of the Form 394 have been previously provided to the Council, and copies are
available for review in the City Clerk's office
Under federal law, the City has 120 days to review the Form 394 and approve or deny the
change of control The time for review may also be extended by agreement of the parties, which
was done in this situation, giving an action deadline for the City of August 2, 2000 If the City
does not act by that date, the request for change of control will be deemed approved by operation
of federal law
Federal law also limits the scope of the City's review of the request for consent
Applicable federal laws limit the City's review to three particular standards the financial, the
technical, and the legal ability of the new controlling owner to carry out the terms of the
franchise agreement
In this case, staff believes that the applicant meets all three of the standards AOL/TW
will have significant financial resources, and clearly possesses the necessary financial ability to
carry out the franchise terns AOL /TW is expected to have annual gross revenue of over $30
billion, annual post -tax net income of over $550 million, and assets of approximately $55 billion
The cable industry has undergone a great deal of consolidation in the recent past. This
consolidation trend has resulted in a handful of mayor corporations becoming controllers of cable
franchises, and the enormous financial resources these companies enjoy make the determination
of financial ability uncontroverted
Staff also believes that AOL /TW possesses the necessary
franchise The franchisee, TWC, remains the same, and TWC st demonstrated that it s capable out the
of operating the cable system We also call your attention to the applicant's answer to question
10 In the supplemental information letter provided by their counsel.
Finally, we believe that AOL/TW possesses the legal qualifications to carry out the terms
of the franchise As detailed below, the chain of ownership and transfers of the franchise is
valid, and the actual franchisee will remain the same Assuming all other regulatory approvals
are granted (such as that of the FCC), we see no legal bamer to AOL/TW's control of the
franchisee
29
[Name]
July 26, 2000
Page 3
Because AOL/TW clearly meets the applicable tests under federal law, staff recommends
that the Council approve the attached resolution granting consent to the change of control for the
cable franchise
The applicant has agreed to reimburse the City for its reasonable costs in reviewing the
change of control The Resolution also specifies that by approving the change of control, the
City does not waive any past non - compliance with the franchise. This ensures that the City may
still take action if an audit were to disclose any irregularities
Unpaid Franchise Fee Issues
Federal law limits the franchise fee for cable to five percent of "gross revenues"
generated by the franchise "Gross revenue" is generally a very inclusive term, including all
subscription, special event, advertising, and other revenues collected by the franchisee cable
company Several years ago, a dispute arose between most cities and their cable franchisees
about whether or not the franchise fee itself is considered part of the gross revenues In other
words, should the franchise fee be calculated on the total amount collected by the franchisee, or
should the franchise fee amount on a subscriber's bill be removed from the fee calculation For
example, if a basic cable bill were $20.00, and the 5% were charged on just the $20, it would
give a franchise fee of $1.00 If the 5% were charged on the $2100 total billed ($20 service plus
$1 franchise fee), it would give a franchise fee of $1 05 This additional amount is commonly
referred to as "five -on- five" or "fee -on -fee "
We believe this dispute is easier to understand if you eliminate the separate lme -item for
the franchise fee If basic cable cost $20, the cable franchisee would collect $20 from the
subscriber, and as part of the franchisee's obligation (not the obligation of the subscriber), the
franchisee would pay the city 5% of that amount collected, or $1 If basic cable cost $21, the
franchisee would pay the city $1.05. Franchising authorities were arguing that the entire fee -on-
fee issue is really just a specter created by the internal accounting of the cable companies The
franchisee is simply required to pay 5% of the total amount collected by the cable franchisee
from the subscriber Labeling $1 of the total the "franchise fee" is only an internal accounting
mechanism of the cable franchisee, and bears no relation to calculating the correct franchise fee
based on the total amount collected
This was a bitter and lengthy dispute. The cable companies obtained an administrative
ruling in 1995 from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that the franchise fee was
not part of gross revenues, and many used that as a basis to avoid collecting and remitting that
portion of the franchise fee Finally, in City of Dallas v FCC, 1818 F 3d 393 (51h Cir 1997), a
federal court ruled that "gross revenue" meant any amounts collected by the cable franchisee,
which meant that the franchisees did owe fee-on -fee revenues to the franchising authorities
MI
[Name]
July 26, 2000
Page 4
The cable companies again responded by going to the FCC and obtaining an
administrative ruling that if unpaid fee -on -fee revenues were collected and remitted to the
franchising authority, then those fees could be directly passed through to the cable subscriber in a
separate line item on the bill (In re Franchise Fee Pass- through and Dallas v FCC, CSR
5147 -R, (February 1998) ) We are unaware of any successful challenge to this administrative
ruling
In 1995, an audit of El Segundo's cable franchise by Telecommunications Management
Corporation showed that the City was owed approximately $36,000 in unpaid fee -on -fee
amounts of the franchise fee. The operator took the position that if it was required to pay the
City this amount it would be passed on to the subscribers The City Council sitting at that time
decided not to pursue litigation on this matter. The possibility of a pass- through to the City's
residents was key to the previous Council's decision. Though it was prior to the FCC's ruling
allowing pass - through, the previous Council decided that because the $36,000 would likely be
billed through to the cable subscribers by the franchisee and/or result in costly litigation, they
would rather forego collection of the unpaid amounts.
The fee -on -fee issue remains unresolved in El Segundo, and we see several options for
the Council to consider First, the Council may take no action Second, the Council could order
a more recent audit to determine the amount of fee -on -fee revenue currently owed. We
contacted Telecommunications Management Corporation and inquired about the cost of such an
audit They responded that they had recently completed a similar audit for the City of Lawndale,
which cost approximately $10,000 and covered the years since 1996 Finally, the Council could
direct staff to ensure fee -on -fee revenues are included in the franchise fee from this point on, and
not seek to collect any past unpaid fee -on -fee revenues.
Paragon Cable to Time Warner Communications Franchise Transfer
During staff's review of the AOL /Time Warner transaction, concern arose that a previous
transfer or change of control, from Paragon Cable to Time Warner Communications, had not
been earned out with the City's consent (as required by federal law and the Municipal Code).
The City had no record of an FCC Form 394 being filed (Form 394 is the form required by the
FCC for all transfers or changes of control Rather, the City received only courtesy letters
informing it of the change Further investigation has shown that the City's consent was not
required due to nature of that transaction
The change was necessary because in 1995, Time Warner Communications acquired
Paragon Cable Time Warner's acquisition of Paragon Cable was actually part of a larger
transaction, in which Time Warner purchased the assets of KBLCOM, Inc., from Houston
Industries KBLCOM had two different types of cable assets that Time Warner acquired First,
there were several cable franchises in which KBLCOM held 100% ownership, Second,
31
[Name]
July 26. 2000
Page 5
KBLCOM had a 50016 interest in Paragon Cable, which was a)omt venture with Time Warner
that owned several other cable franchises. Ownership of Paragon's franchises was therefore
evenly split between KBLCOM and Time Warner, and management and control over those
franchises was given to Time Warner
When Time Warner purchased KBLCOM from Houston Industries, it obtained several
complete franchises (including, for example, franchises in the cities of Garden Grove and Los
Alamitos), and it obtained the second half of Paragon, which included the second half of several
other franchises (including El Segundo, Torrance, Gardena, Hawthorne, and Lawndale) that it
already managed and controlled through Paragon.
El Segundo Municipal Code section 14.60.080(b) states in part
"(b) Ownership or Control The Grantee shall promptly notify in writing the
Grantor of any proposed change in, or transfer of, or acquisition by any other
party of, control of the Grantee The word `control' as used herein is not limited
to major stockholders but includes actual working control in whatever manner
exercised . A rebuttable presumption that a transfer of control has occurred shall
arise upon the acquisition or transfer by any person or group of persons of ten
percent (10 %) or more of the beneficial ownership interest of the Grantee "
Because Time Warner already had actual working control of El Segundo's franchise
through its management role in Paragon, and Time Warner already owned 50% of the franchise,
the transaction does not appear to be a change of control or a transfer under the Code that would
trigger mandatory review by the City On the other hand, the wholly owned franchises that Time
Warner purchased from KBLCOM were clearly considered transfers of ownership, and therefore
an FCC Form 394 was submitted to those cities in order to obtain approval of the transfer
Through the KBLCOM transaction, Time Warner's ownership of the El Segundo franchise went
from a controlling to a wholly owned interest.
Furthermore, the Municipal Code does not seem to consider "transfers" to be less than
the entire franchise. For instance, El Segundo Municipal Code section 14 60 080(a) reads in
part, "Said franchise cannot in any event be sold, transferred, leased, assigned or disposed of,
including but not limited to, by forced or voluntary sale, merger, consolidation, receivership, or
other means without the prior written consent of the Grantor, and then only under such
reasonable conditions as the Grantor may establish "
If federal law controls this determination, it also does not appear to require local review
of the Paragon acquisition The federal law states, "A franchising authority shall, if the franchise
requires franchising authority approval of a sale or transfer, have 120 days to act . (47
USCA § 537, emphasis added.)
3 V
(Name]
July 26, 2000

The FCC's regulations take a slightly wider approach, and speak of transfers of
"controlling ownership" as the type of transaction requiring local review The regulations state
in part, "A franchise authority shall have 120 days . to act upon an application to sell, assign,
or otherwise transfer controlling ownership of a cable system " (47 CFR 502(a), emphasis
added.) By omission, the federal law and the FCC regulations do not appear to permit local
approval of transfers of less than a controlling interest. If so, the City would not have had the
right to review the KBLCOM transaction under federal law.
4 Open Access to Cable Data Networks
As use of the Internet grows, there has been increasing demand from users for faster
access speeds One method of providing fast Internet access has been the deployment of "cable
modems" that use the cable television system to deliver data at speeds many times greater than
conventional dial -up modems
When a cable operator builds and operates a data system, they generally require all
customers to use a specific Internet Service Provider (ISP), which often is a subsidiary of or
partially owned by the cable operator ISPs supply the two -way data stream that makes up
Internet access To draw an analogy to plumbing, the cable company supplies the pipes, and the
ISP supplies the water If anew customer had a previous ISP that they would like to retain, or an
existing customer wishes to change to a different ISP, they cannot do so unless there is "open
access "
"Open Access" refers to a requirement that the cable operator open its data network for
use by other ISPs than the one it designates, much like a telephone company cannot require that
specific long distance compames be used, or ISPs, for calls on its network.
Whether or not a city has the legal ability to force a cable operator to offer open access
was the subject of a recent Ninth Circuit U S Court of Appeals decision in AT &T Corporation
v City of Portland, 2000 Daily Journal D.A.R 6675 (June 2000) California is part of the Ninth
Circuit, and so this decision is binding on California cities The Portland court looked to the
definition of "cable service" in federal law, and determined that it only includes one -way video
service, and enough two -way interaction to support video services such as "video on demand "
It would not include something as interactive as Internet service, and therefore Internet service is
not subject to regulation under a cable franchise That eliminated the authority on which
Portland had relied to compel open access by its cable franchisee. Because this decision is
binding authority, we do not believe the City now has the authority to require open access as part
of the cable franchise
However, as part of their merger, AOL and TWI have signed a Memorandum of
Understanding that they will seek to offer competitive ISP service on their cable data networks
33

The extent of the competition and its expected availability remain uncertain A copy of the
Memorandum of Understanding is included with your packet
The issue now has moved to the legislative and regulatory forums Wlule the FCC has
previously refused to address the open access issue, On June 30 (shortly after the Portland
decision), FCC Chairman William Kennard announced that the FCC will begin a formal
proceeding on open access, though no time frame was announced

RESOLUTION NO
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
EL SEGUNDO PROVIDING FOR THE CHANGE IN
CONTROL OF A CABLE TELEVISION FRANCHISEE
WHEREAS, the City of El Segundo ( "Franchising Authority ") has granted a
franchise to Time Warner Communications (the "Franchisee ") a subsidiary of Time
Warner Inc ( "TWI ") to provide cable television service,
WHEREAS, TWI and America Online, Inc. ( "AOL ") have entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement') dated as of January 10, 2000,
WHEREAS, the Merger Agreement will result in a stock - for -stock merger (the
"Transaction ") in which TWI and AOL will merge with subsidiaries of a newly formed
holding company; and
WHEREAS, as a result of the Transaction both TWI and AOL will become wholly
owned subsidiaries of the new company, AOL Time Warner Inc.; and
WHEREAS, the Franchising Authority has concluded the Transaction will result
in a change of control of the Franchisee; and
WHEREAS, a Form 394 regarding the Transaction has been filed with the
Franchising Authority; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of El
Segundo does hereby determine and find as follows
To the extent required under the terms of the Franchise, the Franchising
Authority hereby authorizes and consents to the change in control of the
Franchisee resulting from the Transaction.
2, The Franchisee shall remain responsible for all obligations under the
Franchise
3. Nothing in this Resolution shall be deemed or interpreted to be a waiver
by the Franchising Authority of any past non - compliance, known or
unknown, with the terms of the Franchise by the Franchisee The
Franchising Authority does not waive any past non - compliance with the
terms of the Franchise, and it reserves the right to pursue any and all
remedies permitted by law for any non - compliance with the terms of the
Franchise.
4. This authorization and consent shall be effective upon the closing of the
Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Transaction should not

PROVIDING FOR THE CHANGE OF CONTROL OF CABLE FRANCHISEE
PAGE NO 1
close by 5.00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on March 1, 2001, then the
Franchising Authority's authorization and consent shall lapse and expire
5 Within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice of costs from the
Franchising Authority, the Franchisee shall reimburse the City for its actual
costs incurred in reviewing and evaluating the Transaction and the Form
394, not to exceed $15,000. Because the Transaction is primarily for the
benefit of the Franchisee, Franchisee agrees not to pass through or
otherwise surcharge this cost to its customers in the Franchise service
area
6 The Franchising Authority acknowledges the Memorandum of
Understanding entered into by Time Warner and America Online on
February 29, 2000, and the decision of the U S Ninth Circuit Court of
Appeals filed June 22, 2000 in AT &T v Portland. Nevertheless, the
Franchising Authority reserves any rights it may have to later require the
Franchisee to allow third parties access to the Franchisee's data network
for the purpose of providing internet service to customers in the Franchise
service area (commonly known as "open access ") This reservation
includes any similar right of the Franchising Authority that may be
acknowledged or granted in the future by any court of competent
jurisdiction, legislative action, or administrative action Prior to the
enactment or enforcement of any such requirement, Franchisee shall be
provided with reasonable notice, an opportunity to be heard, and an
opportunity to present evidence on any findings made with respect to such
a requirement
This authorization and consent is conditioned that the parties to the
Transaction and any other reviewers of the Transaction (for example, the
Federal Communications Commission) approve the Transaction in a form
not materially different from the form reviewed, authorized and consented
to by the Franchising Authority
8 The Franchising Authority hereby gives Franchisee notice that the change
of control may create a taxable possessory interest upon which
Franchisee may be liable for certain property taxes. Franchisee shall
acknowledge that it has received actual notice as provided by California
Revenue and Taxation Code section 107.6
9 Within thirty (30) days of consummation of the Transaction, AOL Time
Warner and the Franchisee shall execute and return to the Franchising
Authority an acceptance of this Resolution in a form substantially similar to
the form attached to this Resolution
10 Failure of the Franchisee to comply with any condition of this Resolution
shall automatically render this Resolution null and void, and the
Franchisee's request for a change of control shall be considered denied.

Re Transfer of Control of El Segundo Cable Franchise
Dear A Wohlenberg,
Z002
VA BAR ONL.
•MA BAR ON..
N A ON.I
MO BAR ONIr
•. i. BAR ONLY
Our firm represents Time Warner Cable, which has asked us to respond to your letter of
May 2, 2000 The answers below correspond numerically to the questions posed in your
previous correspondence They should provide the information needed to complete the city's
Form 394 review
1 The system's current physical form is as follows. 50 10 miles oFplant of which 93% is
aerial and 74 runs underground The system passes 7,537 homes with a single 500 mHz system
providing 70 channels including standard cable programming, premmin channels and pay -per-
view
Time Warner plans to upgrade its El Segundo system this suminer to provide the
following a single 750 mHz Hybnd FiberJCoax System, standard HFC, 80 channels of analog
service (including standard, premium and pay - per - view), multiple channels of Digital service,
and high speed on -line data services In the future, the system could additionally offer video on
demand, and voice over IP technology or circuit switch telephony
During the upgrade process, Time Warner intends to utilize existing underground conduit
and aerial strand systems for any necessary fiber or coaxial cable repliicement It is not clear that
any street trenching is necessary But if needed, such trenching would be limited to new
07/28.00 WED 13 11 FAX 213 236 2700
locations for underground power supply locations required by SC Edison Initially, the company
hopes instead to upgrade existing aerial supplies Time Warner will probably need to upgrade
some underground vault and pedestal locations either in public nghts -of -Nay or on pnv are
property The only other potential underground street work would arise from "pot- holing"
locations where our existing conduit may need repair or replacement
2 Form 394 contains all the mayor terms of the transaction Please ;pecify any additional
information requested
3 The merger, involving only corporate parents, will create no change in the franchisee or its
operations Time Warner is currently not aware of any franchise compliance issues Time
Wainer Cable is willing and eager to correct any problems the city identifies under terms of its
current franchise
4 Time Warner will comply with any contractual terms stated in itti franchise To the extent
that any such payment, as a matter of law, may be construed as a francarse fee, Time Warner
Cable reserves the right to deduct these payments from franchise fees paid
5 Time 'Kamer is fully committed to the merger. Approval is expected soon In light of our
commitment to this transaction, no breakup fees are anticipated Any such fees would not be
reflected in El Segundo's cable rates.
a Our basic service cable rates are subject to rate regulation and FCC rules would not
permit a pass- through of any such costs In other tiers, the increasmg competition in the MVPD
arena precludes passing through any such costs
6 Regulatory and legislative scrutiny is a normal part of any such transaction No additional
costs are anticipated as a result and therefore, no need exists for additional measures
7 The proposed merger will not cause any increase in rates Although rate increases may
occur, they will be related to such factors as general inflation or increased programming costs —
not to the merger
8 Time Warner has always offered quality service at attractive, competitive rates in
compliance with its franchise. It will continue to do so after the merger
9 The company plans no changes in the management structure for this cable franchise
Locally, Robert V Moel will remain as vice President and general manager, and Knsty
Hennessey will continue as vice president for government and public affairs They will continue
to report to Thomas C Feige, the president of Time Warner Cable's Los Angeles division Mr
Feige will, in turn, continue to report to an executive vice president at Time Warner Cable's
headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut Overall, The merger will have no effect on the
Z003
39
07/26/00 WED 13 11 F4X 213 236 2700
company's continuing obligation to meet the terms of its franchise or its corporate commitment
to providing the best in information and entertainment
10 a Time Warner Cable was the first company to demonstrate that fiber optic cables could
be used to transmit cable television signals The company has been an industry leader in
developing interactive television, first with the QUBE system in Cincinnati and, later, with the
Full Service Network in Orlando Building on these earlier pioneering efforts, Time Ni amer
launched the first "video -on- demand" service last December This groundbreaking service, first
available in Honolulu, will soon be available in two additional markets (Austin and Tampa)
Time Warner also pioneered high speed Internet access via cable television networks The first
cable modem service in the country, in Elmira, NY in 1995, led to development of the Road
Runner high -speed online service as we know it today.
b These achievements are listed in (a) above This kind of technical leadership gives the
company the experience and infrastructure to better serve the changing needs of subscribers in a
marketplace notable for rapid technological evolution As always, Time Warner remains
committed to providing customers with the best in entertainment and information Reflecting
this commitment, Time Warner Cable was honored in 1994 with the first- and -only Emmy Award
for technical accomplishments -- specifically as a result of the company- developed breakthroughs
in fiber optic technology. Moreover, the fiber -optic design for cable tc levision networks -- the
Hybrid Fiber - Coaxial 750 mHz plant -- has become the industry standard All of the technical
achievements listed in (a) above occurred under the guidance of Time Warner Cable's
engineenng and technology department The company's chief technical officer, James A
Chiddix, and virtually the entire team responsible for these achievements remain firmly in the
company s employ
c Senior Time Warner Cable executives were key members of the National Cable
Television Association task force that developed and implemented the organization's customer
sery ice standards Congress codified these same standards as part of the 1992 Cable Act Many
municipalities have also adopted them Time Warner also created the "On -Time Guarantee"
program that was later widely adopted in the cable industry Ultimately, the interests of the
consumer and the franchisee are one and the same high quality service that brings customers the
best in entertainment and information
11 Time Warner received high grades in the survey for employment practices, deployment
of advanced services to the minority community and for charitable giving to minority
organizations The company has taken action to improve its overall performance on future
surveys of this kind Most importantly for El Segundo, the local system is part of Time Warner
Inc 's minority and women's business development program This centralized effort attempts to
locate, encourage and contract with businesses run by those from groups historically under-
represented among vendors Although this program only began about a year ago, it has already
Z 003
M
07/26/00 WED 13 12 Fkl 219 236 2700
started to have an impact This program will have no effect on either the price of cable services
or on the company' ability to meets its franchise obligations As Time Warner must purchase
these goods and services anyway, any effort to broaden the pool of potential vendors serves to
make the marketplace for these products more competitive and efficient.
12 The business plan of ExciteCHome will have no effect on the f ranchise ni El Segundo
for either traditional video or emerging broadband services It similarly will have no effect on
Time Warner's obligations under the current franchise Time Warner said AOL, in their
Memorandum of Understanding, have clearly committed to open access on their broadband
networks
13 Time Warner and The Walt Disney Company have now reached an agreement
Throughout the process, Time Warner's sought to keep the interests of cable consumers
paramount The agreement will in no way affect Time Warner's ability both to comply with its
franchise and to provide its customers with the best in entertainment and information
14 Time Warner Cable handles advertising in -house through a unified regional sales office
Once commercials are placed, the advertising proceeds are credited to the system running each
particular spot Time Warner also participates in two limited partnerships with other MSOs in
the region Adlrnk (Los Angeles interconnect) and the South Bay Cable Advertising Partnership
Adlrnk is responsible for the marketing and sales of commercial time to advertisers interested in
reaching the entire DMA Each system receives a pro -rata share of revenues based on its number
of subscribers Time Warner is also the general partner and sales representative for the South
Bay Cable Advertising Partnership which sells commercial time to local advertisers interested
only in reaching viewers in South Bay
We believe this information should allow El Segundo to complete its review and approval
process If we can be of any assistance in expediting this matter, or if you have any questions,
please feel free to contact me.
Very truly yours,

Re Transfer of Control of Cable Franchise from Time Warner to America Online
Dear Ms Hennessey
As you know, the City of El Segundo is engaged in its review of the above - mentioned
transaction in accordance with the 1992 Cable Act and FCC Regulations The City has received
the Form 394 provided by Time Warner, and that document is the focus of the City's review
However, there are additional questions and concerns the City has that are not answered
by the information contained in the Form 394, and the City believes additional information is
necessary for it to complete its review of the AOL/TW transaction The City also requires
additional information because the transaction is a complex one, raising many issues, and the
cable industry has changed significantly since the FCC's creation of the Form 394
General Ouestions
1 Describe the present physical form of and services available through the cable system,
and any plans to construct additional facilities and /or offer additional services The City is
particularly interested in plans that may involve trenching of streets in the public right -of -way
Please summarize the mayor terms of the merger transaction
3 There may be outstanding issues of non - compliance with the franchise Will AOL/TWI
guarantee to remedy any past non - compliance issues, to ensure these issues are not waived by the
City as part of its approval of the transfer of controls

c The Statement says that TWI representatives helped develop the NCTA customer
service standards This does not necessarily represent any technical skills for complying with the
terms of a cable franchise What substantive aspects of these rules did these representatives
develop or encourage" Was it a role that represented the interests of the subscriber (for example,
by seeking to exceed those standards and the service rendered to or perceived by the consumer)
or was it a role that represented the interests of the cable industry (for example, by seeking to
reduce customer service costs at the possible detnment of subscribers)?
Other Questions
11 In the NAACP's recent report on diversity in the cable industry, Time Warner received a
grade of "C+ " In response to this grade, Time Warner's Vice President of Corporate
Communications (Michael Luftman) was quoted as saying, "his company knows more needs to
be done internally But he added that some improvements are hard to make " (Multichannel
News Online, 4/17/2000, "Cable Scores at"')
What changes, if any, are planned or have been enacted to address this issue, and what
will their impact be on the costs and service level to the customer, and Time Warner's ability to
comply with the terms of the franchise"
12 AT &T recently gained control of Excite @Home from its partners in that venture
(Comcast Corp and Cox Communications, Inc ), which has the effect of removing certain
procedural barriers to Excite @Home's actions (Los Angeles Times, 3/3012000, "Excite@Home
Deal Gives AT &T Control ") Does this change in a primary competitor to Time Warner's
RoadRunner service and America Online result in any effect on the cable franchise, or the plan
of AOL to offer "open access" to cable data services in accordance with its Memorandum of
Understanding with Time Warner?
13 As has recently come to public attention, Time Warner is in a prolonged negotiation with
Disney regarding carriage of the Disney Channel and other Disney properties The dispute
reportedly focuses on the amount of license fees demanded by Disney, the placement of the
Disney properties in particular service tiers, and concerns of Disney's regarding the treatment of
its properties by AOL/TWI after the merger (Multichannel News Online, 4/3/2000, "Disney
Pushes Back Deadline ") What reasonably possible outcomes are there for this dispute, and how
would those outcomes affect the ability of Time Warner to comply with the terms of the
franchise and provide the services desired by its customers?

14 What is Time Warner's financial relationship with its advertising service (the company or
entity which is responsible for booking and billing local advertising on Time Warner's cable
systems)° How are revenues from local cable advertising divided between the franchisee and he
advertising service?
As we have previously agreed, the deadline for the City's review of the merger
transaction is June 10, 2000, and now relatively little time remains in the review period We also
are sympathetic to the pressures and workload on Time Warner due to the merger and the current
dispute with Disney Time Warner's responses to these questions, and the timeliness of those
responses, may also increase the City's need for time to review the transaction In light of these,
concerns, the City would likely be receptive to an agreement to extend the review period -

DISCUSSION:
OBJECTIVE
The focus of this report is to review FY 2000 -2001 revenue forecasts and assumptions
in each major category of revenue All comparisons made are between the FY 2000-
2001 budget and the FY 1999 -2000 estimated actual
REVENUES
Total FY 2000 -2001 General Fund Revenues are budgeted $419,700 or 1 0% higher
than FY 1999 -2000 estimated actual The following is an analysis of General Fund
revenues by ten major categories
Property Taxes
Total FY 2000 -2001 property taxes are budgeted $340,400 or 9 6% higher than FY 1999-
2000 estimated actual
Included in this category of revenues are all secured and unsecured property taxes,
penalties and interest, and homeowner's exemptions Since the City of El Segundo does
not levy a tax, it is limited to receive approximately 6 4% of the 1 % Los Angeles County
share of property taxes Changes in property taxes received are impacted by changes in
the annual assessed valuation, new budding activity, and property improvements on
commercial and residential property
The main factor attributing to the anticipated increase is an assumed 6% growth in
assessed valuation, which is the projected increase over the same period for the entire
Los Angeles County Secured Property Taxes also includes an additional $54,750
anticipated due to an assumption of $85 5 million in budding improvements anticipated in
FY 2000 -2001
Other Taxes (includes Sales Tax, Franchise Tax, Utility User's Tax, Real Property
Transfer Tax and Transient Occupancy Tax)
The total category FY 2000 -2001 is budgeted $46,050 higher than FY 1999 -2000
estimated actual mainly attributable to increases in Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT) of
$300,600, offset by a decrease in Sales Taxes of $400,000
Sales Taxes
FY 2000 -2001 Sales Taxes are budgeted $400,000 lower than FY 1999 -2000 estimated
actual This is attributable to adjustments received relating to one business in FY 1999-
2000
65
Overall growth in all other sales tax producers is assumed to be 4%
On September 2, 1993, the State Board of Equalization provided an estimate of potential
sales and use tax refunds due to aerospace federal contractors who had previously paid
taxes to the State of California or to their vendors, on overhead matenals that were
allocated to government contracts The amount of refund liabilities allocated to the City of
El Segundo was $1,837,158 The City has been paying the refund over a period of five
years and has been carrying a liability in the General Long Term Debt Account Group
The entire liability will be paid by September 30, 2000 Since the City paid $150,000 in FY
1999 -2000, this represents a net increase in sales tax of $150,000 in FY 2000 -2001
Franchise Taxes
Included in this category are revenues received per franchise agreements with Chevron
Oil, Cal Water, Southern California Edison, Southern California Gas, Time Warner, and
Shell Oil The City has franchise agreements with each of these companies to receive an
agreed upon percentage based on gross revenues generated in the City The forecast
assumes no growth in gross revenues for FY 2000 -2001
Transient Occupancy Taxes
FY 2000 -2001 Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT) are budgeted $300,600 higher than FY
1999 -2000 estimated actual One factor attributing to the increase includes a full year of
the Hilton Hotel, which opened in March, 2000 Also included is the assumption that the
Resident Inn will open in May, 2001
Utility User's Taxes
Included in this category are taxes received from gas, water, telephone, cogenerated
electricity, and electric utility taxes Since this source of revenue is based on a percentage
received on gross revenues, and since there is no anticipated increase, total revenues are
estimated to remain flat Gas UUT and Electric UUT combined are budgeted in $86,250
higher than FY 1999 -2000 estimated actual
Business License Fees
This total category FY 2000 -2001 is budgeted $51,100 higher than FY 1999 -2000
estimated actual This is attributable to an anticipated increase in Commercial Industrial
activity The increase will be slightly offset by the 50% sales tax rebate, which is deducted
from the business license base fee
The City continues to see a benefit from of the amnesty program adopted by the City
Council FY 1998 -99 More businesses are now in compliance with the business license
ordinance, which has helped stabilized this revenue source
O
Other License and Permits
This category includes animal
budgeted to $78,400 less than
more activity than anticipated in
Interest and Rentals
licenses and all budding permits FY 2000 -2001 is
FY 1999 -2000 estimated actual This is attributable to
FY 1999 -2000
Total FY 2000 -2001 is budgeted $154,350 or 6 0% higher than FY 1999 -2000 estimated
actual mainly attributable to a higher cash balance in all funds The average interest rate
is assumed to remain fairly stable in FY 2000 -2001
Intergovernmental Revenues
Total FY 2000 -2001 is budgeted $103,200 or 10 0% lower than FY 1999 -2000 estimated
actual, attributable to grants received in FY 1999 -2000, which the City will not receive in
FY 2000 -2001 Included in this category is Motor Vehicle in Lieu fees, which is budgeted
$19,700 higher The forecast for this revenue source is provided by the State of
California's Controller's Office
Charges for Services
Mayor sources of revenue in this category include plan check fees, wastewater user fees,
paramedic transport fees, and various environmental safety fees Total FY 2000 -2001 is
budgeted $408,000 higher than FY 1999 -2000 estimated actual This is mainly
attributable to a reimbursement of $426,000, which will be received from the City of
Hermosa Beach to offset the Public Safety Communication Centers operational costs
Other Revenue
Total FY 1999 -2000 is budgeted $504,100 lower than FY 1998 -99 estimated actual mainly
attributable to one -time developer contributions from the Morgan Stanley project of
$588,000 received in FY 1999 -2000
67
Special Revenue Funds
Associated Recreation Fund
Total FY 2000 -2001 Associated Recreation Fund revenues are budgeted $77,500 or
22 6% higher than FY 1999 -2000 estimated actual This is attributable to a number of
new proposed classes and programs within this fund
Internal Service Funds
The Equipment Replacement, General Liability, and Worker's Compensation Insurance
funds estimated revenues have a direct relationship to the expenses for the fiscal year
These Internal Service Funds generate revenue through a direct charge back to the
General Fund and other funds that will completely offset the estimated expenditures for the
fiscal year The increase or decrease in estimated revenues will fluctuate each fiscal year
with the estimated expenses Total FY 2000 -2001 revenues are budgeted $329,950
higher attributable to a higher future charge to other departments based on equipment
purchased in FY 1999 -2000

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: (continued from page 1)
The following summarizes the direction provided to staff at the July 18th public
hearing The revisions have been incorporated Into the Speck Plan as shown In
the attached redline strikeout text The previous revisions, pages 12, 72, and 82,
from the June 20th meeting are also attached as redline strikeout text
1) Allow street -front offices on 300 -400 blocks of Main Street and former
Ralph's property
The City Council directed staff to revise the Plan to allow street -front general and
medical /dental offices on the 300 -400 blocks of Main Street and on the former
Ralph's property, the same as is permitted in the other districts The attached
redline strikeout text, pages 29, 42, 43, 54, 55, and 86, show the revised text
Additionally, the Council requested that staff bring the issue back it for review in
one year
The Council inquired about the feasibility of requiring the owner of a second floor
residential unit to occupy the unit The City Attorney's office advised staff and the
City Council that a development standard that would require that the residential
unit above a commercial space only be occupied by the commercial business
owner would be unenforceable The City Council then directed staff to delete the
allowance for residential units Staff has also deleted the "live /work" provisions in
the Richmond Street District All approximately 82 existing legal residential units
within the Plan area will become legal non - conforming, which allows the ability to
continue the use as well as replace the use if it is accidentally destroyed The
attached redline strikeout text, pages i, ii, iii, iv, 2, 21, 22, 28, 29, 31, 32, 33, 35,
36, 38, 39, 40, 42, 43, 45, 46, 47, 50, 51, 55, 79, 86, 125, and 144, show the
revised text.
3) The name and uses allowed within "The Village ", the former Ralph's
property
Based on the direction provided by Council, staff has renamed this District as the
Grand Avenue District If the Council desires another name for the District, it
could be changed. The District development standards allow the flexibility to
utilize the site for an anchor tenant, smaller tenants, or a combination of both
The long -term vision for the site is that the property will be developed with a
mixed -use pedestrian - oriented environment The attached redline strikeout text,
pages I, iv, v, 2, 25, 42, 85, 86, 87, and 89, show the revised text
The Plan originally required an Administrative Use Permit (AUP) for all outdoor
gathering areas, only in the North Richmond Street District Based on the
2
83
direction provided by the City Council, the Plan has been revised to Indicate that
in all districts outdoor gathering, retail and dining is permitted, except uses larger
than 200 square feet require an AUP, and outdoor entertainment, dancing and
amplified sound require a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) The attached redline
strikeout text, pages 40 and 41, show the revised text
The City Council requested that the Plan allow the flexibility for angled parking on
the west side of the 300 -400 blocks of Main Street Due to the constraints of the
nght -of -way width, this configuration would allow center left -turn pockets at the
corners only, to mitigate traffic impacts There would not be adequate width for a
center left -turn lane the entire length of the street, and the sidewalks could only
be widened from 12 feet to approximately 13 5 feet with angled parking Staff will
come back to Council for further direction on the details of the streetscape
improvements prior to preparing the plans and specifications The attached
redline strikeout text, pages 19, 57, 58, 59, 60, 98, 99, 127, and 130, show the
revised text

GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CONSISTENCY
That the proposed use is consistent with the following General Plan goals, policies,
programs, and objectives
A The proposed General Plan Land Use designation for the site, as well as the
proposed zoning, is Downtown Specific Plan (DSP). The Downtown Specific Plan
designation is compatible with the surrounding residential, and commercial land
use designations
The proposed Downtown Specific Plan designation is designed to allow a
maximum floor area (FAR) ratio of 1.0, except for one 17,500 square foot City
owned parcel, currently developed as a surface parking lot, which would allow an
FAR of 1 5 Additionally, the residential density is proposed to Increase from 1
dwelling unit per 3500 square foot lot to 2 dwelling units per 3500 square foot lot
While this would permit a greater amount of development than the existing land
use designation, the total build out of the Plan area would be an insignificant
Increase in density when compared to the total allowed density in the entire City

Proposed Land Use Plan
The following is a discussion of the 1992 Land Use Plan, which
indicates future land uses for the entire City For ease of discussion, the
City is divided into four quadrants and the proposed land use
designations within that quadrant are discussed To know what is
allowed under each designation, please reference the land use
definitions listed above.
Northwest Quadrant
The northwest quadrant of the City has the most vaned mix of uses
within the City All of the City's residential units, the Downtown area,
the Civic Center, and the older industrial area of Smoky Hollow, are
located in this quadrant. The 1992 Plan retains the three residential
designations found on the old Plan- single- family, two - family, and
multi - family, plus a new designation of Planned Residential
Development The Plan shows 357.2 acres of single - family, 57 4 acres
of two - family, 119.3 acres of multi - family and 5 7 acres of planned
residential development This includes the re- designation of Imperial
Avenue School, which is no longer used for educational purposes, from
Public Facility to Planned Residential Development The total number
of dwelling units projected by the Plan is 7,674 One of the mayor goals
of the 1992 Plan is to preserve the residential neighborhoods (Ord

For each annual assessment, the advisory board produces a report recommending the
expenditures and activities of the BIA for that year The Council then passes a resolution
of intention to levy the assessment, followed by another public hearing, after which the
new years' assessments are levied
A similar assessment procedure was added in 1994 (the Property and Business
Improvement District Law of 1994 (PBID), (California Streets & Highways Code section
36600 et seq )), though this procedure makes the assessment upon real property and
not upon the business itself Because of that difference, assessments under the 1994
law should comply with Proposition 218, and so can be blocked by a majority of
property owners
A BID for Downtown is recommended to include the 300, 400, and 500 blocks of Main
Street The 300, 400 and 500 blocks each have 24, 36 and 36 twenty -five foot wide lots,
respectively, for a total of 96 lots, not including the Civic Center and the City owned
parking lots There are approximately 32, 41, and 23 businesses within the 300, 400 and
500 blocks of Main Street, respectively, for a total of 96 businesses The key roles
initially for the BID are anticipated to include sidewalk cleaning, and streetscape
improvements It may include the construction and maintenance of a parking lot or
structure, as required by the parking demand It is estimated that sidewalk cleaning for
the existing 12 foot wide sidewalks would cost approximately $650 -$800 per block, if
done one a month, for a total monthly cost of approximately $1950 - $2400, for the 3
blocks Sixteen foot wide sidewalks would cost approximately $860 -$1060 per block, for
a total monthly cost of approximately $2580 -$3180 As the needs of the Downtown and
the BID change, the scope of the roles of the BID could also change It may be
appropriate to create both a BIA and a PBID as the focus and roles of the two could
differ and create a symbiotic relationship
B. Streets and Streetscape
Modification and improvement of the existing streets and streetscape, particularly in the
Main Street District, will greatly enhance the pedestrian environment in the Downtown
As the pedestrian atmosphere is enhanced, people tend to linger, stroll, and enjoy the
area more, spending more time and dollars in the Downtown The following identifies
improvements suggested for the Downtown as specified within Section VIII, Design
Standards of this document The cost estimates provided are very preliminary, as none
of the design work has begun
Sidewalk widening /street narrowing- (300 -400 Blocks Main Street)
Currently the sidewalks in the Main Street District are 12 feet in width, with 4 -foot
tree wells adjacent to the curb, leaving only 8 feet of sidewalk width in areas
where there are trees There are 7 foot wide parallel parking stalls and two 10-
foot 6 -inch driving lanes on each side of the street The total right -of -way width is
80 feet, with a 56 feet of curb to curb width This current configuration leaves little
room for outdoor retail activities such as outdoor dining, art displays, and

sidewalk sales, or for pedestrians to stroll and enjoy the Downtown Additionally,
the excess street width tends to speed vehicles through the area instead of
slowing them down and protecting the pedestrian environment As these two
blocks are the core of the Downtown, they are seen as the most critical in
creating the desired pedestrian - oriented environment
The proposed three -lane street configuration would widen the
sidewalks to approximately 16 5 feet on each side The existing parallel parking
on each side of the street would be retained and two through driving lanes, one
in each direction would be provided Additionally, a seRt+adeas— center left -tum
lane is key in order to avoid traffic congestion in the Downtown
width In addition to the sidewalk widening, new colored stamped concrete
decorative sidewalks and mid -block crosswalks or colored textured pavement
accents are proposed Approximately 8 -10 on -street parking spaces would be
lost with the three -lane configuration fe -shag due to the dedicated nght -turn
only lanes at street intersections Several more on- street parking spaces would
be lost with the two -lane configuration
Narrowing the street would also require reconstruction of the roadway, relocation
of streetlights and fire hydrants, the relocation of traffic signals and loop detectors
at the Grand and Holly Avenue intersections, and the installation of infrastructure
(conduit) to accommodate future installation of modem high speed "bandwidth"
and fiber optic cables These modifications are seen as a permanent, Phase II
approach, to creating a truly pedestrian - oriented environment in the core of the
Downtown A Phase I, short-term improvement plan for the 100 -500 blocks of
Main Street is discussed below
Estimated Cost: - $776,000
Potential Funding Sources General Fund ($160,000 previously approved in
199912000 CIP budget, additional funding of $320,000 could be reallocated from
Civic Center Plaza budget- see discussion under Section C of Implementation),
Gas Tax, Prop C (with MTA approval), BID, and /or other assessment district
Street Modifications- (100 -500 Blocks Main Street)
As a Phase I approach, the existing roadway from El Segundo Boulevard to
Manposa Avenue, or wst the portion from Grand to Pine Avenues.; with the
existing 56 foot curb to curb width, could be re- stnped. The re- striping could
accommodate the same roadway configuration, as the Phase II— permanent
approach discussed above, but without the sidewalk widening and with slightly
different lane widths The street would be slurry seated and re-striped to provide
a clean look A portion of these improvements have already been budgeted by
the Public Works Department as part of a Citywide slurry seat project scheduled
to begin in September 2000, with the exception of the traffic signal loop
detectors, the sandblasting and the design costs for the new three -lane
configuration. The re- striping would maintain the existing 56 -foot curb to curb

width and 12 foot sidewalk widths, as a temporary measure to analyze traffic and
pedestrian movements It is anticipated that the re- striping will help to slow
vehicular traffic, without causing congestion, while creating a safer environment
for pedestrians
-The three -lane configuration re- striping would provide one through -lane in each
direction, a center left -tum lane, and parallel parking on both sides of the street
width Approximately 8 -10 on- street parking spaces would be lost with the three -
lane configuration Fe s%F%pii@ due to the dedicated right -turn only lanes at the
intersections Several more on- street parking spaces would be lost with the two -
lane configuration A bike lane could be accommodated in the 100 -200 blocks of
Main Street connecting to the bike route on Grand Avenue
Estimated cost - $22,765 if completed with the current budgeted CIP project.
$44,265 if project is separated from the current CIP project scheduled to
begin in September 2000.
Funding Source Gas Tax (previously approved in 1999/2000 CIP budget)
3 Street Modifications- (100 -300 Blocks Richmond Street)
The only modification proposed for Richmond Street is the installation of
infrastructure (conduit) to accommodate future installation of modem high speed
"bandwidth" and fiber optic cables Pacific Bell currently has fiber optic facilities in
El Segundo Boulevard west to Whiting Street The conduit on Richmond Street
could tie in with these facilities or another provider if their facilities are located in
proximity in the future The conduit would provide expanded opportunities and
encourage high tech offices and live /work uses
Estimated Cost: $184,200
Potential Funding Sources, General Fund, Gas Tax, Prop C (with MTA approval)
BID, and/or other assessment district.
4 Street Modifications- 000 -200 Blocks West Grand Avenue)
Currently Grand Avenue has a right -of -way width of 100 feet with 10 -foot
sidewalks on both sides, two driving lanes on each side and parallel parking on
both curb lanes The center island is 18 feet in width with a 4 -foot median as well
as 7 -foot wide parallel parking on both sides of the median. This right -of -way
width is the largest in the City west of Sepulveda Boulevard, as it originally
accommodated the red car rail lines. The existing center street parking is
awkward and not pedestrian friendly
The proposed modifications would maintain the existing 10 -foot wide sidewalks,
or potentially widen them to as much as 15 feet, and remove the central island
and parking The existing parallel parking adjacent to the curb would be removed
and replaced with angled parking to partially make up for the removed center
parking It is anticipated that the number of parking spaces would be

demolition and removal of all of the existing concrete Plaza and the installation of
landscaping, plaza furniture, and performance and public gathering areas. Recently the
scope of the project has been further refined by the City Council's Downtown
Subcommittee The new scope does not include the removal of the concrete, but instead
envisions working with the existing improvements to enhance the area and make it more
functional and attractive It is envisioned that that following elements will be included in
the Plaza renovation portable sound system, fixed lighting, potted landscaping,
benches, relocation of existing central sculptures and re -use of the central raised planter
area as a stage It is anticipated that the improvements will not exceed $225,000 The
Council has already approved $575,000 of Capital Improvement Program funds
(1999/2004 budget) for the project and $30,000 has been spent on the design charette
process The balance of the unallocated Civic Center funds ($320,000) are anticipated to
be reallocated to Downtown streetscape improvements or other Downtown improvement
projects or programs Section VIII, E, 1, Design Standards, Plazas, Civic Center Plaza of

D. Parking Management Program
Introduction /Summary
The City's traffic engineer states that at the present time, parking is not a critical issue in
Downtown El Segundo, although there may be a perception by some Downtown
shoppers that parking is inadequate The parking supply and location of parking are
generally adequate to serve the existing uses in the area Downtown patrons may need
to walk 1 or 2 blocks to their destination after locating a parking space, however this is
typical in a pedestrian - oriented Downtown setting The Downtown Specific Plan,
however, will result in various changes to Downtown El Segundo. The changes may
include a different mix of commercial businesses, higher densities,
uses, modified street layouts, modified on- street parking and other changes The need
for parking in the Downtown area will change as the Plan is implemented. The turnover
in commercial uses, or the potential intensification of land uses, may result in higher
parking demand The location of the parking demand may also shift, and the number of
on- street spaces may change due to the streetscape improvements that are ultimately
included in the Plan.
A parking management plan for the Downtown area must be comprehensive and also
flexible enough to respond to the parking challenges that anse as part of the Plan The
following strategies are key to the implementation of the parking management plan
• Develop a parking management plan that looks ahead to the ultimate build out of
the Specific Plan area' and considers the potential "worst case" parking demand
scenano
• Phase in parking modifications and improvements over time as the Specific Plan
is implemented Seek lower cost, high efficiency solutions first, followed by
higher cost capital improvements when they are needed
• Work cooperatively with area businesses and other stakeholders since they are
the ultimate users of the parking system
• Consider the potential impacts not only in the Downtown area but also on
City of El Segundo 125 Ado tedDra# August 1.
duly 49, 2000
Downtown Specific Plan
15^
in addition to adding more parking The types of parking improvements recommended
for the Specific Plan include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following-
Parking management techniques including better parking signage and
information (brochures and maps), modifying time limits, consideration of parking
meters and fees
• Parking services such as a joint' valet parking program for a series of adjacent
businesses
• Cooperative parking solutions such as shared use agreements among
businesses in the Downtown area that wold allow one business to use parking at
another business during its off -peak hours
• On- street parking modifications such as adding parking via the use of diagonal
parking instead of parallel curb spaces (Grand Avenue and east -west side
streets off of Main Street and potentially portions of Main Street)
• Construction of off - street parking in surface lots or structures with fee
agreements for Downtown businesses that come into the area and require new
parking
The hallmark of this plan will be to phase in the necessary parking improvements over
time as needed based on the changes occurring Downtown. Lower cost, less capital
intensive improvements should be implemented first However, the ultimate need for
additional parking should be planned for at this time to allow adequate lead time to
identify and obtain appropriate sites and finance the purchase of land (if required) and
construction costs A phased approach to parking improvement in the Downtown area is
described
4. Parking Management Options
The options presented in this section are oriented to the multiple user groups that park
Downtown. It is not feasible, nor desirable to develop a parking management plan that
simply addresses the needs of one user group at the expense of other user groups. For
example, the plan must not add commercial parking without addressing resident
concerns, or conversely create "resident only" parking without recognizing the need to
maintain access for the public Therefore, a series of options are presented that address
the many parking related issues. Table 1 summarizes the options.
a. Short-Term Parking Management Options - (implement upon adoption of the
Specific Plan)
Option: Create Visitor Parking Information Guide /map
Discussion: Many cities and Downtown districts have created user - friendly maps and parking
guides that are oriented toward the Downtown visitor. -The guide would include
clear maps showing all public parking, as well as information regarding time limits
and rates (if applicable)
City of El Segundo 127 AdootedOFa# August 1,
daly-f8, 2000
Downtown Specific Plan
15r;
Discussion: This option would add on- street parking where it would be most needed in the
future as development occurs Main Street deer get - have -only has sufficient
width for angled parking on one side, however, angled parking may actually
at the corners to accommodate a left-tum pocket Aangled parking is feasible on
Grand Avenue if the median parking area is removed Also, it may be feasible to
provide angled parking on one or more side streets, such as the 100 blocks east
side of Holly and Pine Avenues, which connect to Main Street, by converting the
streets to one -way flow This option would be implemented in conjunction with
other streetscape /design options as part of the overall Specific Plan
C. Longer Term Parking Management Options- (implement after short
and mid term measures and as development warrants)
Option. Install Parking Meters to Manage Parking Turnover and Raise Revenues for
Parking Improvements
Discussion: One of the most effective parking management tools is pricing - Many persons
using Downtown businesses will be willing to pay for parking depending upon the
nature of the business they are visiting in the area Local employees, for
example, will be less likely to want to pay for metered parking Therefore, prime
curbside spaces can be reserved for customers via the use of meters and time
limits With reasonable rates and time limits, meters do not harm businesses
while they help to properly allocate parking spaces to the various user groups
Obvious disadvantages to meters include aesthetics and the perception that they
will drive away business patron customers rrrThe Planning r...-....es.- en
Options: While Implementing Parking Management Strategies, Continue to
Investigate Costs and Feasibility of Added Parking
Discussion: When considering potential growth patterns Downtown and given the City's
Zoning Code which allows continued growth without providing more parking (for
new businesses in existing buildings that maintain existing non - conforming
parking), more general public parking will be necessary in the future if density
increases without adding parking. The number of added parking spaces can be
determined more precisely following implementation of the highest priority
management strategies
Building new parking will take several years due to the need for environmental
clearances, environmental studies, design and construction Therefore, the City
should continue to investigate the engineering feasibility, costs and
environmental consequences of adding parking Downtown at the same time that
parking management strategies are being tested Also, use of an in -lieu fee
would provide funding for parking over time as businesses turn over or parcels
are redeveloped

JK. Financing Options
The City's economic consultant for the Specific Plan, Keyser Marston Associates, Inc
prepared two memos in which they discuss financing options for implementation of the
Specific Plan The consultant accurately Indicates that the goal of the Plan is to enhance
the area for the residents and employees within the City, while not desiring to draw
regional visitors as the beach City's have done Although some of the funding sources
discussed are not appropriate or realistic for El Segundo, they were identified as
common sources that have been used successfully In other communities The following
potential funding sources were identified-
Redevelopment funds
Several nearby cities have successfully used redevelopment funds for downtown
rehabilitation and fagade improvement programs (Torrance, Pasadena, and
Santa Monica) Under the redevelopment law's current definition of "blight" it may
be difficult to make the factual findings necessary to form a redevelopment area
in the Plan area

SCOPE OF SERVICES
We plan to spend a minimum of two (2) days on -site interviewing key players who will impact
this study In addition to the City Council, City Manager, Department Head, and support staff,
we believe that Interviews with other Individuals /groups are important, including the general City
staff who Interact with the Public Works Department These Interviews should be conducted on
a one to one basis to ensure confidentiality
If we are to properly evaluate the Items listed in the RFP, we believe it Is necessary to Interview
or conduct focus groups with other key individuals /organizations in the community With City
concurrence, we suggest including other agencies the Department must interact with,
developers, engineers, and consultants A focus group of "general" citizens would also be
appropriate This group might include general sewer and water rate payers, homeowner
groups, Chamber of Commerce representatives, or other local organizations Ma /or industries
in the City should also be included in a focus group. Since the City of El Segundo is most
familiar with the local environment, we will request that the City select and schedule these
meetings and /or focus groups
It is important to tour City Facilities to understand the work environment, review technology
applications, staff's capability to use technology, and to get a sense of staff morale
With two (2) individuals from PMW Associates assigned to this project, the two (2) days of on-
site work would constitute four (4) workdays
We will review written documents, policies, procedures, staff resumes, and training programs
and will assess whether the written word and reality are similar We will do this by having
thoroughly reviewed documents before arrival for the on -site review Written documents may
present the ideal world It is important to determine how these documents are translated into

A. Determine Influent Flow to Pump Station
The influent flow to each station will be estimated utilizing
land use information and unit flow factors contained in the
City's Master Plan The analysis will consider ultimate build -
out of the area as allowed by the City's General Plan and
100% building occupancy.
Estimated flows will be compared against existing flow
information for calibration purposes. Pump capacities will be
recommended based upon this analysis, but will not be less
than the current capacity at each station
B Evaluate Generator vs. Enlarged Wet Well Alternatives
(Pump Station No. 4)
The wet well size at Pump Station No. 4 does not allow
sufficient response time by the City in the event of a power
failure. A study will be conducted comparing increasing the
wet well size versus installing a permanent generator at the
facility. Constraints, costs, aesthetics, and noise will ail be
considered and presented.

Background and Discussion:
Section 3 of the 2000 -2003 Memorandum of Understanding between the City of
El Segundo and El Segundo Police Officers' Association, approved by the City
Council at the regular meeting of July 18, 2000, provides that the City will provide
3% at 50 Full Formula Retirement Benefits for members of the Association.
Implementation of that provision requires that the City Council adopt a Resolution
of Intention to amend the City's contract with PERS, approve an ordinance
ratifying the change on benefits provided to employees and authorize the Mayor
to sign the Certification of Member Contribution Rate.
Government Code Section 7507 also requires that the future annual costs of the
proposed contract amendment be made public at a public meeting at least two
(2) weeks prior -to the second reading and adoption of the final Ordinance
Government Code 20471 requires that there must be at least a twenty (20) -day
period between the adoption of the Resolution of Intention and the adoption of
the final Ordinance By conducting the second reading of the Ordinance at its
regular meeting of September 5, 2000, the City Council would meet the
requirements of the Government Code with respect to amending the City's
contract with PERS. The proposed effective date of the contract amendment is
the first day of a payroll period following the effective date of the final Ordinance,
which would be October 7, 2000
The City is declaring that its contribution rate would be increased by an amount
totaling 3.726% as a result of this contract amendment. The Council should note
that the percentage increase represents an amount that is applied to the entire
public safety payroll, which includes both Police and Fire employees. The rate
will change again next year when, as anticipated, the City Council considers a
second amendment to the contract to provide 3% at 55 PERS benefits for Fire
Safety employees, in accordance with the 2000 -03 MOU between the City and
the El Segundo Firefighters' Association.
The Council should note as well that the Member Contribution Rate change
appears relatively modest because of a temporary PERS policy to apply a one-
time 95% valuation of the City's public safety retirement plan assets That
temporary policy was enacted by PERS as an incentive for agencies to provide
enhanced retirement benefits for their safety employees. When the City Council
considers a contract amendment to provide 3% at 55 retirement benefits for Fire
Safety employees in 2001, the assets of the entire safety plan (which includes
both Police and Fire employees) will be valued at 90 %, which is traditional PERS
policy, and will reflect a change in the City's contribution rate exceeding 3 726 %.
PERS will prepare an additional actuarial statement between now and the time
the Council considers a second amendment to enhance Fire Safety retirement
benefits However, based on current data, staff estimates that the City's
contribution rate will increase approximately 7.5% when that amendment occurs.
197
Background and Discussion (continued):
That rate would include both Fire and Police Safety employees Staff recognizes
that the respective payrolls for the Fire and Police Departments differ
significantly Accordingly, staff is developing a method of "apportioning" accurate
PERS costs for each unit, even though both units are combined under the City's
public safety contract with PERS
Finally, as provided in Section 2 of the agreement between the City and the El
Segundo Police Officers' Association, the second reading and adoption of the
Ordinance implementing 3% at 50 PERS benefits is contingent upon the
completion and finalization of the Comprehensive Memorandum of
Understanding by September 1, 2000.
