AGENDA HEADING. Committees,
Commissions and Boards
El Segundo Community Cable Advisory Committee request for funding to publish
weekly cable schedule in the El Segundo Herald and secure additional
advertising to promote programs
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approve a budget of $2500 to advertise the City's cable schedule in the El
Segundo Herald, and to pursue alternate marketing methods to increase
viewership
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The cable committee and staff have been in negotiations with the Herald to
publish the weekly cable - programming schedule as a public service The Herald
has continually refused these requests, and has asked for $40 weekly to publish
the schedule ($2,080 annually) The committee is requesting that $2,500 be
allocated for cable advertising in the 2000 /01 fiscal budget
ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
The El Segundo Community Cable Advisory Committee has submitted a letter of

From El Segundo Cable Committee
To Honorable Mavor and Members of the Citv Council
In the Cable Committee s report to the Crty Council on the Cable TV V iewship
and Programming Preferences, it was noted that many questioned dunng the
survey were unaware of the programming on channel 22 and 57 As you are
aware one of the committee responsibilities is the promotion of viewership
We have investigated several alternatives, and exhausted all efforts to persuade
the Herald to publish the schedule as a community information item It is
therefore our recommendation to the Council that a budget of 52,500 for the fiscal
vear be set aside to advertise our schedule in the El Segundo Herald and to also
continue to pursue alternative methods of putting this information before the
public It is the opinion of the committee that without this effort our channels will
continue to go without many of the potential viewers in the city
Respectfully submitted,

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The Scope of Services stated in the Request for Proposal (RFP) is incorporated
herein by reference as part of this proposal The following is the description of the
tasks involved in this project
TASK 1 - PRELIMINARY DESIGN
Subtask 1.1— Meetings
Within one week of receiving the Notice to Proceed, we will schedule a meeting
with the City and other concerned parties /agencies The purpose of this meeting
will be to discuss major features of the design, identify major concerns regarding
flooding source and traffic impact during construction, obtain additional
information, input and general guidance from the City, establish clear lines of
communication between all parties involved so that the project can proceed in an
expeditious matter
Since this project is to be completed on a fast schedule, initial design approvals are
the most critical The Project Team proposes to hold monthly meetings with the
City and regulatory agencies for expedient process This approach has worked
well for the Team before and it helped to keep the project design on track
Subtask 1.2 — Research and Review
Information such as the as -built improvement plans and other available documents
including the hydrologic and hydraulic calculations for Project 431 at Richmond
and Holly Avenue will be obtained Pernut documents for the connection of the
18" steel force main from the pump station will be gathered All available street
improvements plans for Holly Avenue and Eucalyptus Drive will also be gathered
along with assessors parcel maps, right -of -way and easement documents
The collected documents will be reviewed and verified with site visit notes for any
discrepancies
Subtask 1.3 — Utility and Agency Coordination
The preplanning department of DIGALERT(UTI) will be contacted to obtain the
list of the parucipating utility members within the project area Notifications will
be sent via certified mail with the project location map and appropriate Thomas
Brothers map requesting information for the location of the utility
Since the hydrology and the related submittal will be reviewed by the LACDPW
for pernut processing, close coordination with the County including periodic
meetings and plan check review comments meetings will be essential to expedite
the plan checking time and the processing time with the County DEA's team has
City of El Segundo Storm Water Pump Station Reconstruction 37
061
performed numerous projects working with the County and are very farruliar with
the County's process and their requirements
Subtask 1.4 — Hydrology Study
The available topography map from the City or USGS map will be used as the base
map for the hydrology map preparation At the beginning of the project, we will
walk through the project site to verify the sub -area boundary The drainage
patterns along the existing cross gutters and curb returns will be determined and
verified with the existing hydrology map
Based on the drainage patterns and tributary areas, the hydrology basin areas will
be divided for the analysts A hydrology map will be prepared showing the sub-
areas, node numbers, and the peak discharges. The hydrology will be performed in
accordance with the LACDPW's hydrology manual Since this is a sump location,
the system has to be designed for 50 -year storm in accordance with the County
criteria Peak discharges will be computed for 10 -year, 25 -year and 50 -year storms
However, if there is only one 18" force main and additional force mains or
upgrades are not proposed, then the detention volume in relation to the discharge
capacity will be determined
Modified rational hydrology (MORA) will be used to compute the peak discharge
Flood routing analysts will be performed for a flow - through detention basin The
baseball field topography map will be needed to compute the volume of water at
staged increments in elevation A rating curve will be prepared using the volume
and discharge at every incremental increase in elevation for the ponding water The
pump system curve will be calculated with the increase in the water level of the
detention basin and the losses in the force roam for the change in the discharge
Sump pump discharge will not be included in the discharge curve since the
quantity will be very small The discharge will be calculated based on the first
pump on at a specific elevation and both pumps on at a higher elevation As
explained in our understanding, the total allowable discharge is restricted by the
capacity of the County storm drain downstream Based on the hydrology of Project
431, the maximum discharge will thatch the allowable discharge by the County
The storage - discharge curve for the detention basin routing depends on the
downstream constraints Typically, if the urban hydrograph has steep peaks, the
required volume for storage will be smaller than for a hydrograph with a soft peak
The size of the proposed pumps, requirement for upgrading the force train or
adding another force main, size of the engine, size of the pump station and the
level of ponding in the baseball field depend upon the allowable discharge by the
County
Subtask 1.5 — Preliminary Design
Based on the existing utility information,
set Existing pump station improvement
be used as a base map for this task
a tentative layout for the station will be
plans and other improvement plans will
All available survey information and
City of El Segundo Storm Water Pump Station Reconstruction 38

geotechnical information will be obtained from the City and County Alternate
layout studies will be performed with pros and cons of each layout to reach a
sound solution and criteria for the design Since the bottom of the station is 15 feet
below the street level at this sump location, ground water level variations in this
area need to be monitored for potential uplift If there is potential uplift the new
wet well will be designed to counter any uplift force The station configuration for
the addition of a new well will depend on the selection of the pump and engine
The preliminary design for the station will include the selection of pumps based on
pump curve and system curve, engine size, size of the pump barrel, pump cycling
time, force main, check valves, sump pump layout and discharge line, etc The
preltmmnary design will include the horizontal layout and vertical layout The
results of the preltmmary design and cost estimate may require the City to review
the design criteria again We will select an engine with low RPM for longevity and
low noise level The enclosure will be designed for 45 decibels outside The
automatic transfer switch will be located within the enclosure
Alternative options and numerous site layouts will be considered based on
• Proposed capacity
• Using the existing wet well and the existing pump and engine configuration
• Minimum loss of parking space
• Cost effective and creative layout
• Satisfying the requirements of NEMA, CALOSHA for mtmmum space
requirements
• Force main connections
• Valves, engine exhaust, ventilation for intake for the engines, ventilation for
the station
• Access for removal and replacement of pumps and engines one at a time
• Roof hatch, over head rail and trolley
• Fiberglass enclosure, CMU and brick facing
• Electrical power for sump pump, ventilation, lights and other fixtures
• Gas fueled engines for both pumps
• Replacement of the existing pump and engine
• Demolition of the existing building and construction of a new building to
accordance with seismic loading requirements
• Phased construction
• Aesthetics of the exterior to match the neighborhood
• Location of the engine exhaust pole
• Relocation of 36" CMP drain
• Relocation of curb, gutter and side walk
• Location of Motor Control Center
• Type of level controller
• SCADA
• Permit from AQMD

Factors such as community inconvenience during the construction, traffic detours,
and optimum layout for cost - effectiveness will also be considered The alternate
layouts, relocation and the cost involved will be presented in a report format to the
City We will evaluate the use of a pre - cast "Quikset" type concrete vault or large
diameter manhole or custom design for the proposed wet well expansion
depending on the proximity to existing structures and utilities One alternative
scenario is presented in Exhibit B In this alternative a large diameter manhole is
assumed along with a larger diameter bottom slab to counteract any uplift forces
The proposed engine will rest on the at -grade slab of the pump station A cost
estimate and preliminary construction schedule will be developed The existing
ventilation system will studied and, if needed, improvements will be
recommended. Required easements and permits for the construction will be clearly
identified in the report
The Project Study Report will include
• Evaluation of different alternatives
• Requirements of the operation and maintenance department
• Pump Station layout, with pump and motor configurations, ventilation system,
location of the electrical controls, type of level controller and rrummum space
requirements per CALOSHA, wet well, dry well, screen, gas sensors
• Plan view, elevauons and cross sectional elevations, cross sections
• Piping layout, manifold, drain lines and connection to the force main, valves
etc
• System curve
• Pump curve and selection of pumps
• Site improvements
• Cost estimate
Based on the review and coordination meeting, the preliminary design will be
finalized to use as a guide for the final design
TASK 2 - FINAL DESIGN
Subtask 2.1 — Field Design Survey
Preliminary research will be conducted at the City and the County to obtain the
record of the street centerlme monuments and ties to the monuments. A control
survey will be performed using NAD 83 and the County approved vertical datum
We will perform the aerial survey for I "=40' scale at 1 foot contour intervals for
the baseball field area that would be required to calculate the volume of storage
Additional field survey will be performed to verify the aerial survey, locate all
topographic features using radial shots and dipping of storm drain manholes and
others. Any utility boxes, structures, etc within the project reach will be located in
the field survey Anel survey would be used to create base map for the design of
the site plan of the pump station In addition, a field cross section survey will be
used to design the curb, gutter, sidewalk and other street improvements We will
produce a report showing centerline station, offset from centerline and elevation of
City of El Segundo Storm Water Pump Station Reconstruction �, 640
all locations Copies of all level circuit notes, field notes and raw data files will be
submitted to the City
Subtask 2.2 — Base Map Preparation
The base map will be prepared in AutoCAD or Intergraph format Recently, the
County has adopted the Intergraph format and has published standards for drafting
in Intergraph The field survey will be reduced to create supplementary data for the
base map Field survey and existing plan research will be used to establish the
existing street showing all current improvements
Subtask 2.3 — Geotechnical Inveshgation
This task will be performed by our consultant, Group Delta Design of the wet
well, bottom slab, ground water level, and slab at grade will be designed in
accordance with the geotechmcal recommendation.
Geotechnical investigation scope of services will be as follows
• Review of readily available background materials, including published
geologic maps and literature, in -house information, stereoscopic aerial
photographs, and reports and/or plans provided by the Client
• Assessment of seisrmc and geologic conditions affecting the area, and
evaluation of their potential impacts on the project
• Obtain appropriate permits to perform the proposed subsurface evaluation
• Site reconnaissance to locate proposed borings for utility clearance, and
coordination with Underground Services Alert for underground utility location
• Drilling two borings to an approximate depth of 20 feet in the area of the
proposed pump station area The borings will be continuously logged, and
sampled at selected depths The borings will be excavated and backfilled in
accordance with City and County requirements
• Limited traffic control, including lane closures, will be provided in accordance
with City specifications
• Laboratory testing of selected, representative soil samples Laboratory tests
will include evaluation of in -situ moisture and density, sieve analysis, shear
strength, expansion index, R- value, and soil corrosiwty.
• Data compilation and engineering analysis of the information obtained from
our background review, subsurface evaluation, and laboratory testing Our
engmeermg analyses and recommendations will include pavement design,
excavation and compaction requirements of the on -site soils, temporary
stability of the trench excavations, shoring pressures, hearing capacity, pipe
bedding guidelines, corrosion potential of the on -site soils, and appropriate
types of pipeline materials to be used for the proposed construction
• Preparation of a geotechnical report presenting our findings, conclusions, and
recommendations for the project
City of El Segundo Storm Water Pump Station Reconstruction 41

Subtask 2 4 — Hydraulic Analysis
Pump system curve including the losses through the existing force main will be
determined It is anticipated that a higher velocity of 15 to 20 fps will be used with
both pumps in operation which would create considerable head losses
Modification of the 36" CMP connecting the existing catch basin near the pump
station location would require hydraulic calculations The available capacity of the
downstream storm drain Project 431 will be based on meeting County standards,
such as a maximum allowable hydraulic grade line
Subtask 2.5 —Final Design
The preparation of the plans will be divided into three submittals such as 70%,
90% and 100% completion stages These three sulinuttals will minimize the
revisions to the plans during the production stage and will provide enough time for
the City's review staff to add or delete items of the pump station at relevant stages
The site plans will be prepared at 1 " =10' scale The plan and profile of the
discharge line and the 36" CMP will be prepared at 1 " =20' scale for the plan and
1 " =2' for the vertical scale The floor plan and sections, equipment layout plan,
mechanical and structural plans will be prepared at 1/2"=I' scale The site plan will
include the existing pump station and facilities, tie -ins, realignment of the 36"
CMP
Final Sheet List
• Tittle sheet
• Site Plan
• Equipment layout plan, floor plans and sections
• Architectural plans
• Structural plans and sections
• Mechanical plan and ventilation details
• Lighting plans
• Single line diagram, Motor Control Center, control diagrams and telemetry
diagrams
• Piping connections (force main and sump pump discharge) and tmscellaneous
details
• Storm dram plans for 36 "CMP relocation, if required
We will resubmit the plans to the County and the City for approval, addressing
comments at the said stages
Subtask 2.6 — Potholes
Depending on the franchise agreement, utility companies will be asked to provide
pothole information In addition, potholes will be required to identify the location
of facilities such as the water main and other utilities We have not assumed any
pothole requirements at this time.
City of Et Segundo Storm Water Pump Station Reconstruction 42
066
Subtask 2.7 — Specifications and Cost Estimate
Special specifications using "Standard Specifications for Public Works
Construction" ( "Greenbook ") latest edition will be prepared The City will provide
DEA with the standard specifications including "boiler plate ", which will be edited
to fit the project needs A cost estimate will be prepared for this subrruttal
Technical provisions will be required extensively for the pump station construction
since Greenbook specifications do not cover pump station related specifications in
detail Alternatively, if needed, DEA will prepare the specifications in CSI format
referencing the Greenbook specifications
We will prepare an Engineer's Cost Estimate detailing the quantities and unit
prices
Subtask 2.8 — Coordination with the Agencies, Permits, Meetings
Since a County permit will be required to meet the downstream constraints, close
coordination with the County is required from the beginning of the project
Similarly, an AQMD permit will be required to comply with the engine exhaust
emissions. It is anticipated that, the proposed engines working simultaneously will
exceed the rmmmum exemption of AQMD
As stated in Task 1, DEA will participate in regularly scheduled project status
meetmgs with the City In addition DEA will meet with the County and other
agencies as required to complete the project We have assumed a total of 5
meetmgs
Subtask 2.9 — Utility Coordination
Upon completion of the plans, utility companies will be provided with a
preliminary set of plans showing all available data and the proposed design They
will be asked to field verify the location of their lines SCE will be contacted for
the proposed three phase 240 or 480 volt power requirements The Gas Company
will be contacted to size the line required to operate two engines simultaneously
TASK 3 - BIDDING STAGE
During the bid advertisement period, we will attend a pre -bid conference and
answer questions for contractors during the bidding period We will assist the City
staff in preparing any addendum and RFI's as required We will also assist the
City in evaluating the quality of the contractors' prior work and construction bids
TASK 4 - CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES
We will assist the City in contacting all parties involved in the project including
the utility companies, regulatory agencies, and the County inspector to facilitate a
City of Fl Segundo Storm Water Pump Station Reconstruction 0 6 f
pre - construction meeting We will attend the pre - construction meeting and answer

Quality Control Procedures
It is the policy of DEA that all documents to be subrmtted to clients or used as
procurement or contract documents be formally checked and reviewed by the
procedure stated in our Quality Control Manual
The Quality Control process gives the opportunity to check the plans and
calculations twice by checkers who are outside our design group The checked
mark -ups will then be corrected by our design group and will be resubmitted to the
original checkers The original checker verifies the changes made and signs off on
the plans The plans will be finally checked by the Principal-In- Charge for the
project and will be returned to the project manager for corrections The plan and
calculations will be signed off by the Principal -In- Charge after incorporating the
final corrections DEA is proposing to submit the plans and calculations to our
quality control process at preliminary and final design stage
Summary Process for DEA
The check and review process for all plans and calculations prepared by DEA shall
follow guidelines of the Quality Assurance Program The general flow is as

AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Request Council reject both bids for the supply of doors for Phase 6 & 7 of the City's
Residential Sound Insulation (RSI) program on the basis that they were non-
responsive
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approve rejection of both bids for the supply of doors for Phase 6 & 7 Authorize staff
to readvertise for door supply bids
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
Although directions provided in the bid documents required the bidder to provide a
proposal for the supply of all doors required by the project, neither bidder did so
Additionally, the bids were suspect as one was half the value of the City's engineering
estimate and the other was more than double the City's estimate The rebid will
require two weeks but should provide a complete line of products at competitive
prices There is considerable interest by two companies that learned of the project too
late to bid Both companies have the capacity to provide all doors

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 15, 2000
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Approval of the first one -year extension to the City's contract with Wyle
Laboratories, Inc (Wyle) for architectural, engineering and acoustical services in
support of the City's Residential Sound Insulation (RSI) Program
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approve first one -year Contract extension and authorize the Mayor to execute
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
City Council approved the current, multi- phase, three year Contract with Wyle
Laboratories at its meeting of November 3, 1999, in the amount of $58,400, for
services in support of Phase 6, a RSI project including 12 homes, The Contract
was expanded by Addendum One on January 28, 2000, to include the
approximately 45 homes of Phase 7 The Contract expansion provides for
$152,466 in additional services The term of the Contract is one year, November
15, 1999, to November 15, 2000, with two, one year extension options As the
first anniversary of the agreement approaches, renewal is requested based on
the excellent services received from Wyle to date Since FAA grant funding for
Phase 7 was not received until after the FY1999/2000 budget was approved, this
contract is dependant upon approval of the draft FY 2000/01 RSI Program
Budget, as submitted To delay approval of this Contract until after Council
approves the FY 2000/01 budget will delay the start of construction for at least a
month and may result in the City having to re- advertise for bids While the City
will incur some Phase 7 costs this year, costs for construction contracts will not
become significant until after the first of October when construction begins

accepted by the times so specified in the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, the sum of FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS (5500.00) shall be presumed to be the amount of damages suffered by

PROJECT after the dates specified in the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS for the start and/or
completion thereof~ and CONTRACTOR hereby agrees to pay said soon of FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS (5500.00) as liquidated damages for each day of delay in the starting and/or

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 15, 2000
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent
AGENDA DESCRIPTION: Approve the purchase of twenty (20) tactical entry body armor vests
from Adamson Industries
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION-
Authorize staff to purchase body armor vests from Adamson Industries using equipment
replacement funding
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION-
The tactical entry body armor vests currently utilized by the SWAT team are more than five
years old and fall outside the manufacturer's warranty for duty use In Fiscal Year 93194, the
SWAT vests were placed into the equipment replacement fund. There is currently $21,000.00
in the fund for the replacement of these vests, which were up for replacement in FY 1998/99
The United States Department of Justice has approved a grant of $13,750.50 to assist in the
purchase of the vests The total cost for twenty (20) vests is $33,920.57
The vests should be purchased on a single source vendor basis from Adamson Industries
Adamson Industries is the sole distributor for Second Chance Body Armor, which manufacture
the vests Second Chance vests use Gore -Tex to encapsulate the body armor panels The
Gore -Tex fabric is water - resistant (water can cause ballistic material to lose its puncture
resistant- properties) Second Chance has the exclusive right to use the Gore -Tex material.
Funding for this purchase will come from the equipment replacement fund It is requested the
City fund the entire amount of purchase The grant funds will be placed into the equipment
replacement fund when they are received, and the surplus amount of $830.00 will be added to
the accumulated replacement cost toward the future replacement of these vests

INTER - DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE
May 2, 2000
To J O Wayt, Captain
From Mitchell Tavera, Lieutenant
Subject Replacement of 14 SWAT Tactical Entry Body Armor Vests
PROBLEM
The tactical entry body armor vests currently being utilized by the SWAT team are
more than five years old and fall outside the manufacturer's warranty for duty use A
liability and officer safety issue now exists due to the age of the vests and lack of
manufacturer's warranty
BACKGROUND
This request is a result of an audit of the Police Department's Special Weapons and
Tactics Team tactical entry body armor
The SWAT team uses a special body armor vest for the protection of its team
members The vests provide complete torso and neck protection from most
handguns and limited shoulder weapons These vests also act as a carrier for SWAT
equipment
In addition to the fact that the entry vests warranties have expired innovative
advancements in body armor technology have given rise to new matenals and
designs which now provide greater ballistic protection and wearer flexibility
Often times the SWAT Team employs other officers to assist in tactical operations
These officers are assigned to Detectives, Traffic and Patrol Divisions The officers
aid in perimeter control, suspect containment and other essential functions
Currently there are not enough tactical entry vests for these officers to use on the
tactical operations

PAGE TWO
BODY ARMOR REPLACEMENT
In Fiscal Year 93/94, the SWAT vests were placed into the equipment replacement
program The vests have a replacement year of 98/99 There is currently
$21,000 00 in the fund for the upgrade /replacement of these vests
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City purchase Twenty (20) tactical entry body armor
vests, on a single source vendor basis from the Adamson Industries Adamson
Industries carries Second Chance Body Armor This body armor company uses a
variety of new materials in the manufacturing of their tactical vests. One of the
unique characteristics of these vests is that the interior ballistic panels are encased in
Gore -Tex Gore -Tex fabric resists penetration by water — from sweat or other
liquids Water can cause ballistic material to lose its puncture resistant properties and
reduce the effectiveness of the fabric Second Chance has the exclusive right to use
"Gore -Tex"
The tactical entry body armor vests are unique pieces of equipment that have
specific application The police department has worked with the vendor in the past
and the vendor has a proven history of providing reliable and quality products
SWAT team members tested the Second Chance Tactical Team vest It was found
to be comfortable, user friendly and provided all necessary elements needed in an
entry vest
In order to provide upgraded ballistic protection to all officers that assist the SWAT
Team during tactical operations, it is requested that the department purchase an
additional six (6) tactical vests
There are two additional pieces of equipment that attach to the vests that improve
user comfort and officer safety I am requesting that the City purchase a ballistic
groin guard protector and water hydration system for each vest
The United States Department of Justice has a Bulletproof Vest Grant Program for
fiscal year 2000 I have submitted an application for inclusion into the program and
recently received notification that our department application has been accepted but
not approved The grant program will pay up to 50% of the costs of our vests The
vest order should not be placed until approval by the Bulletproof Vest Grant
Program
102
PAGE THREE
BODY ARMOR REPLACEMENT
If our application is approved the City will have to pay the entire amount of the
vest's purchase price Receipts will then be submitted for payment of grant funds
All returned funds should be placed into the equipment replacement account
The vests to be replaced should not be used by front line officers but rather removed
from seance It is recommended that this equipment be offered to our Sister City,
Guaymas Mexico Police Department, in an as is condition with no implied warranty
or guarantee

Congratulations
This email serves as official notice that the
Bureau of Justice Assistance, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice, has
approved a Year 2000 application under the Bulletproof Vest Partnership Act of 1998
(BVP) for EL SEGUNDO CITY, in the amount of $13750.50.
National Institute of Justice (NIJ) approved vests ordered on or after March 1, 1999 are
eligible for funding Once purchased vests have been delivered to law enforcement
agencies, an online receiving report must be completed The Jurisdiction, through its
Intemet- based, online handbook, electronically requests payment from BJA to cover up
to 50% of the cost of the vests received, in accordance with the approved funding level
Jurisdictions are responsible for ensuring that purchased vests are in compliance with
applicable program standards, that the invoiced prices do not include unrelated law
enforcement equipment, and that total program payments do not exceed 50% of the cost
of vests purchased under this program
Jurisdictions with approved 2000 applications may request payments beginning August 1,
2000 This will allow sufficient time for BJA to update its records and ensure the
electronic payment process is operating properly Jurisdictions with approved 1999
applications may continue to submit payment requests as needed
When BJA approves and processes the Jurisdiction's request for funding, funds are
electronically transferred from the U S Treasury to the Jurisdiction's bank account, as
identified during the online registration process A minimum of 25 business days may be
required to process each payment request Jurisdictions are responsible for facilitating
prompt payment to vest vendors and ensuring that electronic banking and routing
numbers are correct and accurate in their online BVP profile
Only law enforcement officers may receive vests through this program According to the
Act, "law enforcement officer' means any officer, agent, or employee of a State, unit of
local government, or an Indian tribe authorized by law or by a government agency to
engage in or supervise the prevention, detection, or investigation of any violation of
criminal law, or authorized by law to supervise sentenced criminal offenders Eligible
officers may be full -time, part-time, paid or volunteer
Jurisdictions with approved applications must request federal payments no later than
September 30th of the fourth federal fiscal year following the end of the federal fiscal
year in which their application was approved In other words, the Jurisdiction has four
years beyond the year of their application to receive vests and request payments
Jurisdictions may not use both BVP and Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG)
funds to purchase vests during the fiscal year in which the LLEBG funds were awarded
107.
Payments and. transactions may be subject to audits by the U.S. General Accounting
Office, U.S Department of Justice's Office of the Inspector General and Office of Justice
Programs, state or local government auditors, or auditors from independent public
accounting firms Jurisdictions must follow their local procurement policies and
procedures in the purchasing of vests under this program, including the maintenance of
reliable and accurate accounting systems, record keeping, and systems of internal control
Recipients of federal funds are expected to retain documentation supporting all program
transactions for at least three years following the approved application's final payment
request If any litigation, claim, negotiation, audit, or other action involving records has
been started before the expiration of the three year period, the records must be retained
until completion of the action and resolution of all related issues, or until the end of the
regular three year period, whichever is later
If you require additional information, please address your concerns to the Bulletproof
Vest Program, Bureau of Justice Assistance, 4th floor, 810 7th Street, N W., Washington,
D C , 20531 or call the BVP technical support staff at 1- 877- 75VESTS (1- 877 -758-

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 15, 2000
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Report on Street Tree Removals
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Receive and File
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION.
West Coast Arbonsts have begun Implementation of the City's Street Tree
Master Plan As part of the plan, an Inventory of potentially hazardous, diseased,
and hardscape damaging trees were Identified city -wide and slated for eventual
removal The first group of approximately 60 trees has been removed During
this process, a group of residents requested more Information about the process
and if there was a potential for removal of trees on their block City staff
convened a neighborhood meeting, sending Invitations to all residents on the 300
and 400 blocks of Whiting and Concord streets This meeting was well attended,
and a number of issues were addressed It became apparent to staff that,
irrespective of the city's Information efforts, some community members were not
aware of the approval of the Master Street Tree Plan or how it was going to be

Master Street Tree Plan
Implementation Meeting
July 26, 2000
Attendees City Recreation and Parks Staff and West Coast Arbonsts Staff
We discussed the Whiting Street meeting and issues raised at the meeting
Andy stated that removal is not the only alternative Most of the trees
recommended for removal are in their downward lifecycle The average life of a
street tree is 14 years Our goal should be to extend that to 40 -50 years This is
the age of many of our marginal trees Other ways suggested to slow down the
removals would be to increase the maintenance of the trees and accept an
increase in liability
We discussed a resident's suggestion to spread out removals within the same
block to minimize the impact on each neighborhood Andy stated that their
crews could take out trees on different blocks over a period of time to lessen the
impact to particular blocks
WCA will cross - reference the list of 60 trees recently removed city -wide with the
recommended removal list developed as part of the Master Street Tree Plan to
see how many trees are left on the recommended removal list The removals
have been prioritized based on the following criteria
Priority 1
Poorly structured /potentially hazardous
Code 74
Priority 2
Diseased or declining
Code 73
Priority 3
Hardscape damage
Code 71
Priority 4
Overhead wires or obstructions
Code 72
Priority 5
Inappropriate tree /volunteer
Code 75
After the lists have been cross - referenced, and before any removal letters are
mailed, staff will evaluate each tree and take digital pictures to document the
problems When staff has determined the trees that need to be removed, they
will forward the list to WCA The letters will be sent and include a mad back
piece that gives the resident three choices for a replacement tree The letter also
suggest they call city staff or WCA staff to ask questions or discuss the pending
removal Also, a letter or postcard will sent to each homeowner on the block
where a tree is to be removed, informing the residents of the pending removal
3-4 weeks after the letters go out, trees are removed If the resident has
indicated a tree choice, that tree will be planted If not, the first choice of the
three trees recommended by WCA will be planted
113
If the resident doesn't desire a tree in their parkway, City staff will visit the site to
determine if the planting is appropriate Our current street tree policy states that
if a tree is removed from the city parkway, a replacement tree will be planted in
it's place We will need to determine how to address the numerous
(approximately 2000) empty parkway street tree locations if people are
adamantly opposed to having a tree planted
We will need Recreation and Parks Commission /City Council direction on how
we will address this issue The municipal code allows residents to appeal staff
decisions to the Recreation and Parks Commission This may be the most
efficient way to address this issue
After the tree is planted, a door hanger will give the resident instructions on how
to care for the tree
We plan to proceed with the implementation of the Street Tree Master Plan The
steps we will follow include
• Replacement tree plantings for the 60 trees recently removed The letters
and choice cards have already been sent to affected residents,
• Staff and WCA will evaluate the tree trimming request log to determine
where the most requests are concentrated,
• Prune trees on Richmond St, and Grand Avenue,
• Service requests for trimming will be handled by city staff and include
immediate needs, (e g low hanging branches, power lines, touching
homes, etc) The full trimming will be accomplished by WCA crews as part
of the grid pruning program
• Initiate the "grid pruning" of our street trees by choosing the first of our four
service areas that needs pruning the most The grid pruning program will
continue on a yearly basis, with approximately 20% of the city street trees
pruned each year,
• Send out letters to residents with empty street tree sites in front of their
homes informing them of the plan to plant a tree and giving them the
option of three species,
• Staff will respond to residents that don't want a tree planted by conducting
a site visit to determine the viability of the planting Staff will contact the
resident to determine why they don't want a tree If staff determines the
tree is justified, the resident may appeal the decision to the Recreation
and Parks Commission, which will make the final decision, as indicated in
our Street Tree Policy and Municipal Code Section 12 12 180

Background and Discussion (contd )
At the time of the adoption, only a small number of utility providers existed due to
monopoly conditions in the telecommunications, electricity, and natural gas
industries Due to deregulation, the number of utility service providers has
increased significantly In addition, technological changes have resulted in new
services being offered to utility customers
In order to provide guidance to the many new utility service providers regarding
their collection responsibilities and to ensure that the City's UUT ordinance is
applied to all applicable services in a manner consistent with the original intent of
the ordinance, it is appropriate at this time to adopt administrative rules and
regulations as authorized by Section 3 24 100 of the voter adopted UUT
ordinance
Additionally, the proposed administrative rules and regulations allow the tax
administrator (Director of Finance) the flexibility to issue rulings interpreting the
UUT ordinance without having to modify the ordinance This will be especially
beneficial as technology continues to quickly change the utility industry
Significant impacts of the proposed administrative rules and regulations include
the following
Federal legislation has recently been introduced that would repeal the Federal
Excise Tax (FET) The proposed administrative rules and regulations make
clear that a repeal of the FET will not affect the City's ability to levy the UUT
Exempt service users will be obligated to inform the City of their exempt
status
The proposed administrative rules and regulations make it clear that the utility
user is ultimately responsible for the tax
The clarifying amendment to the UUT ordinance does the following
1 Clarifies the penalty for failing to comply with the record - keeping requirements
of the UUT ordinance
2 Clarifies that filing a claim with the City on behalf of a class or group of
taxpayers is prohibited, and
3 Clarifies the procedure for filing an appeal of any decision or administrative
ruling of the Tax Administrator
818100 12 45 PM 12 r'
Fixed Fee and Legal Services Agreement
The objective of these agreements is to provide the City with certain professional
services in furtherance of a comprehensive UUT/franchise compliance and
revenue protection program that is designed to preserve, protect, and enhance
the UUT tax and utility franchise revenues The City currently contracts with
MMC on a contingency basis to perform UUT and franchise fee audits Audit
services will now be done on a fixed fee basis, which will enable the City to
achieve lower costs for industry wide analysis performed by MMC and will help to
develop consensus -based decisions regarding interpretations and tax
implementation that utility industries require of California public agencies
Audit services performed by MMC that is specific to the City of El Segundo will
continue to be priced on a contingency basis
