Re Carwash to Benefit Amanda Shoupe
Dear Council Members.
We have scheduled a carwash to take place on Sunday, October 22, 2000 from 1 -5pm utilizing
the City provided lot on the comer of Main Street and Manposa Avenue
In an effort to raise additional fiords for Amanda Shoupe we would We to request approval from
the El Segundo Cm Council to sell drink and food items during the carwash event
The items we propose to sell have been donated to us and would be limited to:
Canned Soda's
Bottled Water
Baked Goods; i.e., Cupcakes, Cookies, etc...
> Coffee
All profits made from the sale of these items will go directly to the Amanda Shoupe Fund
established at I' Coastal Bank in El Segundo as will all momes generated by the carwash
I plan on visiting all of the vendors in the area personally to speak with them about the potential
sale of these items to get their feedback. I will have this done prior to the next City Council
Meeting scheduled for October 17, 2000 at which time I can report my findings and seek final
approval for the sale from the City Council.
Sincerely,

Re: Agenda for October 17, 2000
We, the Leadership El Segundo Class of 1997 -98, are requesting
to be placed on the October 17, 2000 City Council Meeting
agenda.
The item for consideration is permission for the clean up and
beautification of Mortuary Hill.
As you are aware, we brought before you some time ago our
project to have an "El Segundo' sign fabricated and installed on
what is commonly referred to as "Mortuary Hill ". The direction
we received at the time was to come back again if and when the
required funds were raised. We have continued to try and reduce
cost and solicit donations. To date we have raised
approximately $5,000. However it has become increasingly
difficult to solicit donations for a project that has not been
officially approved. To that end we have decided to separate the
project into three phases and bring it back before you for
consideration.
Phase One - Clean up (removal of old sign, weeds, vegetation and
debris) and the planting of new foliage to beautify the location.
The foliage to be planted would be coordinated with Richard
Williams of the Parks Department to assure erosion,
maintenance, and visual considerations are met. Since the time
of our first proposal, our city has made great progress in our
situation with the L. A. Airport, and in that time the old sign has
II L�
427 Main Street • El Segundo, California 90245 • Phone (310)322-1220* Fax (310) 322 -6880
remained unused. We feel this demonstrates that the "unsafe
area for jets" sign has absolutely no bearing on that situation.
Phase Two - Actively and aggressively begin a fund raising
campaign with counsel approval for the project. The project
would be tentatively approved pending the acquisition of the
required funds and would require council final approval once the
funds have been raised.
Phase Three - The fabrication and installation of an I'M Segundo"
sign, that would beautifully and proudly identify our community.
We will consult and coordinate all phases with the appropriate
city personnel to assure compliance with any and all regulations.
We appreciate your time and consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
Leadership El Segundo Class of 97 -98

Subject: Public Hearing and Adoption of Resolution for Block Grant Funds
BACKGROUND
During the 1996 California legislative session the state government adopted legislation to
provide a block grant for law enforcement purposes, known as AB3229 the Citizen's
Option for Public Safety The process adopted by the legislation requires a public
hearing to consider the expenditure of funds and to ensure the opportunity for public
input These funds are part of the $3 billion collected from property taxes in California.
El Segundo will receive an estimated $100,000 this year
All funds received under this block grant must be utilized to supplement local law
enforcement activities and cannot be used to supplant existing funding. However,
AB3229 does not mandate the money be spent and allows agencies to accumulate the
funds year to year Our fund currently has a balance of approximately $124,000
In consideration for the use of these grant funds the following are submitted as possible
uses
• Convert the department from Glock 45 caliber handguns to Glock 40 caliber
handguns. Full size (Model 23) for patrol, motors and SWAT, sub - compact (Model
27) for detectives, administration and off -duty use The Glock pistols in current use
are eight years old
• Fund an additional officer and narcotics trained canine to be deployed at LAX/
Customs task force
• Crime analysis computer system to provide statistical data for the crime prevention,
detective and patrol divisions
• Acquire additional computer hardware and radio to create a training console in the
Public Safety Communications Center
• Additional funding of the overtime budget for a special problems - onentated task
force
Approval of the recommended expenditures will enhance the ability of front line El
Segundo Police Officers to deliver their services to our community.
In order to comply with the provisions of Govemment Code Section 30061, et al a Notice
of Public Hearing will be placed in the October 12, 2000 edition of the El Segundo

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (Continued — Paae 2)
In a letter dated August 14, 2000 mailed to approximately 7,000 El Segundo
households, the City Council requested resident input on this issue Citizens were
asked to give their opinions and comments in support or opposition to an in -house
animal control program. Responses were compiled through October 3, 2000 Over
250 responses were received via e-mail, voice mad and letters Support for a city -
operated program outnumbered those opposed by totals of 175 "For ", 77 "Against"
and 7 "Unknown" A synopsis of all input is summarized in an attached staff report
During that time, City staff explored other options including contracting with
surrounding cities Contracting, however, has not developed into a viable
alternative Animal control is not viewed as a revenue - generating venture and, as a
result, cities were either not interested in contracting with El Segundo or the
combination of high costs and lack of alternatives in dealing with County shelters
made such choices impractical. As a result, Staff focused on researching the
feasibility of developing a city- operated program
It is anticipated that the implementation of an in -house animal control program would
provide benefit to all El Segundo residents. Requests for animal control services
extend to a wide vanety of needs beyond those of just pet owners. Barking dog
complaints, capturing nuisance animals such as possums and squirrels, rounding up
loose or vicious dogs and picking up of dead animals are among services provided
to all residents of the City A local animal control program would provide responsive,
quality service and eliminate complaints regarding County services. Complaints
have included poor response times, substandard care of animals, high euthanasia
rates created by the handling of large volumes of animals, and the relatively long
travel distance to Carson to retrieve pets impounded by animal control officers.
Additionally, an in -house program would likely increase the rate of adoptions of stray
or abandoned animals picked up within El Segundo. It would also increase the
number of licensed and vaccinated dogs within the city while utilizing those fees
collected to offset the costs of the program.
Based upon early estimates, the Council included in the Police Department's FY
2000 -2001 budget the amount of $190,000 in anticipation of the potential need for
developing this program. Increases in the costs for dog licensing have been
proposed as a source for funding to help offset these costs. If funded by dog license
fees alone, annual license costs are proposed to increase to $30.00 for spayed or
neutered dogs and $60.00 for all others Currently, dog license fees are set at $10
for spayed /neutered dogs and $20 for unaltered animals. Senior citizens presently
pay $5 for one dog and additional dogs are assessed at full rate. A universally
accepted percentage of dogs actually altered is 70 %, meaning that at the $301$60
rate the licensing of 3,000 dogs would offset the estimated costs for a city- operated
animal control program. The estimate of 3,000 dogs stems from Los Angeles
County's guidelines for estimating contracts which reflects that up to 20% of a city's
026
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (Continued — Page 31
population will be dog owners Therefore, 20% of El Segundo's 16,200 population
equals 3,240 which, for planning purposes, was rounded down to 3,000.
For budgetary purposes, however, it is recommended that dog licensing revenues
be initially calculated at a 66% compliance rate The total number of dogs, whether
or not they are spayed or neutered, and the rate at which owners will license them
are merely estimates at this time. Some flexibility should be built into the initial
year's funding to protect against unknowns. Using the two- thirds rate of compliance,
licensing revenues can be conservatively estimated at $78,000, an amount $39,000
less than 100% compliance It is therefore recommended that, for the purpose of
first year funding, Council approve the full $190,000 amount In any circumstance,
an aggressive licensing effort will be required
Other funding options that have been explored include the licensing of cats that
some cities have initiated and experienced success with. For example, the City of
Lomita licenses cats at a rate of $15 unaltered and $7.50 for spayed or neutered
animals The rates for cats are half those Lomita charges for dogs at $30/$15
Los Angeles County estimates that cat populations are usually about 50% of a city's
dog population and that about 50% of cat owners ultimately register their animals
Using those numbers, it can be interpolated that approximately 1,500 cats reside in
the City and that 750 owners will voluntarily comply with any registration
requirement. Nominal fees for cats, collected concurrently while canvassing for dog
licenses, could significantly impact revenues and provide a mechanism for lowering
fees for dogs. For example, a $15 / $7.50 cat fee could generate approximately
$7,300 in "fair share" revenues Senior discounts and higher or lower compliance
rates would ultimately affect the totals collected.
The program would require the hiring of one additional Police Service Officer (PSO)
with specific animal control responsibilities and a schedule flexible to the demand for
services Three additional existing PSOs would be trained for on -call, fill in and
vacation relief service Duties would include all existing PSO duties relative to fail
operations and front counter responsibilities plus expanded animal control related
tasks and parking enforcement.
Animal control officers would transport animals to temporary cages in the city for
later transfer to the SPCA on Yukon Ave. in Hawthorne. After -hours housing of all
animals would be accomplished through a contract with the SPCA which has
presently been quoted at $25,000 based on historical demand for services with the
SPCA Future contracts could fluctuate with higher or lower usage. The contract
includes veterinary services during normal business hours. In the event of after -hour
emergencies, contract veterinarians would treat injured animals. SPCA requires that
the City have vet services available when they are closed. Typically, vet hospitals in
02%
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (Continued — Page 41
the area have agreed to bill on a case -by -case basis at an average cost of $20 to
$50 per animal The SPCA is currently solvent and expects to continue its adoption
and public educational services for years to come During transition to the new
program, Los Angeles County Animal Care and Control will continue to provide
service on a month -to -month basis When City operations commence, we would no
longer utilize Los Angeles County for animal control services. Should this in -house
animal control program be accepted, it is estimated that start-up time would be
approximately 4 months from the date of approval before becoming operational This
would be due primarily to the time involved in hiring personnel, purchasing
equipment and providing training to selected employees.
CONCLUSION
The proposed Animal Control Program is a premium service that would provide El
Segundo residents with 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year services
For this premium service there would be a higher cost attached but the service
proposed would far surpass any service a contract agency could provide

INTER - DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE
October 5, 2000
TO: Mary Strenn, City Manager
FROM: Tim Grimmond, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Animal Control Program Proposal
PROBLEM
Since July 1, 1997 Los Angeles County Animal Care and Control has been unable to
provide animal control services at levels demanded by residents. Due to complaints from
citizens regarding the inadequate services provided, the condition of the Carson animal
shelter facilities, and the high rate of euthanasia at the Carson facility, staff was directed
to research available options for providing this service to residents. This item was first
agendized at the City Council meeting of July 18, 2000 During that discussion, Council
directed Staff to coordinate citizen input for the purpose of further discussion at a later
date
BACKGROUND
This report refreshes previous information and includes a summary of the input received
from El Segundo residents in response to the request by Council. That request was
presented in the form of a letter to residents dated August 14, 2000 mailed to
approximately 7,000 El Segundo households. Citizens were asked to give their opinions
and comments in support or opposition to an in -house animal control program. Responses
were compiled through October 3, 2000. Comments by residents are summarized as an
attachment to this report
CITIZEN RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR INPUT
From the 7,000 letters mailed, over 250 responses were received via e-mail, voice mail and
letters. Support for a City -run program outnumbered those opposed by well over a 2 -to-1
margin The attached compilation of comments indicates whether their responses are "for"
or "against" the proposed program and includes comments or suggestions, if any, taken
from the body of their messages. In a few instances, opinions and comments were unclear
as to their support or opposition and are recorded as 'unknown'. It should be noted that
several comments were received indicating that some residents are under the
misconception that the proposed program includes a fully staffed in-town animal shelter
which it presently does not. The main theme of those persons in support of the service
��� 31
Proposal for Animal Control Program
October 5, 2000
Page 2
revolved around current poor service, quality of care and the safety of their animals Some
said proposed fees were high but that they would pay even higher fees for better service
Others suggested that all residents should contribute across the board since animal control
services benefit all residents, not dust pet owners Many in opposition cited exorbitant
program costs, that they were not dissatisfied with current service, while others expressed
resistance to additional taxes disguised as licensing fees. Persons of both opinions agreed
that the proposed cost of licenses was high, especially for multiple dog owners and /or
senior citizens on fixed incomes Senior citizen discounts were often suggested Another
prevalent suggestion was to include cats in the licensing process
Final totals from all responses were 175 "For', 77 "Against" and 7 "Unknown" Also note
that at the October 3r° council meeting, one local resident submitted petitions endorsed
with the signatures of 720 residents in support of an in -house program
DISCUSSION
In conducting research on the issue it was determined that there are limited options
available Local area cities either contract with Los Angeles County or have a combination
of services available in conjunction with the County and /or SPCA. Animal control is a
necessary public service that is not intended as a revenue generating operation. Those
with their own in -house programs, notably Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and
Lawndale were either not interested in contracting with El Segundo, or the combination of
high costs and lack of alternatives in dealing with County shelters made such choices
impractical As a result, Police Department staff focused on researching the feasibility of
developing a City - operated program.
The purpose of an in -house program would be to provide the residents of El Segundo
superior animal control services combined with a higher quality of care and housing. This
would accomplish three goals
1) Provide quality customer service and eliminate complaints regarding poor response
times, improper care of animals and the high euthanasia rate of animals heretofore
taken to the Carson facility.
2) Increase the number of licensed and vaccinated dogs within the City and utilize fees
to offset the costs of an in -house program.
3) Increase the rate of adoptions of stray or abandoned animals picked up within El
Segundo.
BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS

PERSONNEL NEEDS
The program would require the hiring of one additional Police Service Officer (PSO) with
specific animal control responsibilities and a schedule flexible to the demand for services
Three additional existing PSOs would be trained for on -call, fill in, vacation and holiday
relief service Duties would include all existing PSO duties relative to jail operations and
front counter responsibilities plus expanded animal control related tasks and parking
enforcement
CONTRACTURAL CONSIDERATIONS
Animal control officers would transport animals to temporary cages in the city for later
transfer to the SPCA on Yukon Ave in Hawthorne After -hours housing of all animals
would be accomplished through a contract with the SPCA. Presently, that contract has
been quoted at $25,000 and is based on historical demand for services with the SPCA.
Future contracts could fluctuate with higher or lower usage. The contract includes
veterinary services during normal business hours In the event of after -hour emergencies,
contract veterinarians would treat injured animals SPCA requires that the City have vet
services available when they are closed. Typically, vet hospitals in the area have agreed
to bill on a case -by -case basis at an average cost of $20 to $50 per animal The City
would no longer use Los Angeles County for any animal control services.
REVENUE GENERATION
Increases in the costs for dog licensing has been proposed as a source for funding the
program If funded by dog license fees alone, annual license costs are proposed to
increase to $30 for spayed or neutered dogs and $60 for all others. Currently, dog license
fees are set at $10 for spayed or neutered dogs and $20 for unaltered animals. Senior
citizens presently pay $5 for one dog and additional dogs are assessed at full rate. A
universally accepted percentage of dogs actually altered is 70 %, meaning that at the
$301$60 rate the licensing of 3,000 dogs would substantially offset the estimated costs for
a city funded animal control program. The estimate of 3,000 dogs stems from Los Angeles
County's guidelines for estimating contracts which reflects that up to 20% of a city's
population will be dog owners. Therefore, 20% of El Segundo's 16,200 population equals
3,240 which, for planning purposes, was rounded down to 3,000. An aggressive licensing
effort would be required.
For budgetary purposes, it is recommended that dog license revenues be initially
calculated at a 66% compliance rate. The actual number of dogs, whether or not they are
spayed or neutered and the rate at which owners will license them are merely estimates
at this time Some flexibility should be built into initial year funding. Using the two - thirds
r34
Proposal for Animal Control Program
October 5, 2000
Page 5
rate of compliance, license revenue can be conservatively estimated at $78,000 This
estimate is $39,000 less than 100% compliance Therefore, it is recommended that for the
purpose of first year funding Council approve the full $190,000 amount presently in the FY
2000 -2001 budget
One other funding option that has been explored is the licensing of cats Some cities have
initiated such programs and have experienced some success with them For example, the
City of Lomita licenses cats at a rate of $15 for unaltered and $7.50 for spayed or neutered
animals These rates for cats are half those Lomita charges for dogs at $301$15
Los Angeles County utilizes estimates that cat populations are usually about 50% of a
city's dog population and that about 50% of cat owners ultimately register their animals.
Using those numbers, a can be interpolated that approximately 1,500 cats reside in the City
and that 750 owners will voluntarily comply with any registration requirement Nominal
fees for cats, collected concurrently while canvassing for dog licenses, could significantly
impact revenues and provide a mechanism for lowering fees for dogs. For example, a $15
/ $7 50 cat fee could generate approximately $7,300 in "fair share" revenues. Senior
discounts and higher or lower compliance rates would ultimately affect the totals collected
As stated previously, animal control programs are not viewed as revenue generating
operations Licensing fees, however, are seen as the primary means to assist in offsetting
the costs required to operate this necessary public service. The options of singling out dog
owners, including cats in the licensing structure or absorbing costs into the General Fund
budget so that all residents pay proportionately, is at the Council's discretion.
Revenues from citations written as enforcement actions against errant animal owners are
not anticipated to be significant enough to be considered as offsetting any operational
costs
PROPOSED IMPLEMENTATION TASKS
Should this program be approved, it will take approximately 4 months, following Council
approval, to become fully operational Until that time, L.A. County Animal Control has
agreed to proceed with their current level of service.
Post new position, background and hire Police Service Officer
Order all equipment including truck (120 day delivery)
Establish base of operation and install all equipment
Train all Animal Control personnel
Prepare Animal Control Procedural Manual
Inform public via media campaign
Canvass City to issue new El Segundo Licenses

PROPOSED IMPLEMENTATION TASKS (continued)
Formalize contract with SPCA
Establish emergency veterinary contract with area animal hospital
Cancel County Services
CONCLUSION
The proposed Animal Control Program is a premium service that would provide El
Segundo residents with 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year services. For this
premium service there would be a higher cost attached but the service proposed would far
surpass any service a contract agency could provide.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: October 17, 2000
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Reports — City Council
AGENDA DESCRIPTION*
Status report on the Implementation of The Downtown Specific Plan
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Authorize staff to retain a traffic engineer under a single source contract in an
amount not to exceed $25,000 to examine both existing traffic levels and the
Impact of the proposed preliminary design Improvements; and slurry seal and
restripe Main Street between Manposa and Grand at a cost of $44,265
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: (continued on page 2)
The Downtown Subcommittee met on October 10, 2000, to reconsider the
schedule to Implement portions of the recently adopted Downtown Specific Plan
The Subcommittee specifically discussed the growing public concern related to
reducing Main Street between Mariposa and Grand from four lanes to two
without first evaluating potential traffic Impacts As a result, the Subcommittee is
recommending that the proposed street reconfiguration be temporarily applied to
the surface of the street with stripes and pylons to determine the effect the
proposed improvements will have on existing traffic levels. The existing street
surface will be slurry sealed prior to the striping. Once this information is
compiled and evaluated by a traffic engineer, the Subcommittee will make a
recommendation to the City Council regarding the design improvements to Main
Street To expedite the process and avoid possible conflict with downtown
Christmas Holiday activities, it will be necessary to retain the traffic engineer
through a single source contract.

Background & Discussion: (continued from page 9)
In an effort to reduce the potential confusion to the public during the test period,
staff will place a number of signs along Main Street explaining the traffic
evaluation process In addition, staff will also work closely with downtown
merchants, property owners and residents during the test period to address any
questions or concerns. The schedule for retaining the traffic engineer and
performing the necessary analysis is illustrated on the attached chart
Per previous City Council direction, staff will proceed with the selection of a firm
to complete the overall design according to the time line illustrated on the
attached chart

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (Continued).
Pitney Bowes notified staff in late 1999 of our postage equipment not being year
2000 compliant, and parts would no longer be available for repairs, thus making it
obsolete Pitney Bowes then provided loaner equipment to ensure the City
uninterrupted mad service and to allow staff to evaluate proposed new
equipment
Staff has been very pleased with this new digital technology equipment because
it has vastly improved daily processing time for both outgoing mad and folding/
insertion of various types and sizes of material into envelopes for processing and
distribution Other benefits include postage -by -phone instead of hand- carrying
the postage meter to the post office each time postage is needed, less downtime
with new equipment, upgrade from 5 -lb to 15 -lb scale to accommodate current
City needs, and faster processing speed using the Weigh -on- the -Weigh feature,
which weighs every piece (up to 16 ounces) as it passes, automatically
determining the correct postage, and setting the meter all at up to 90 pieces a
minute
Staff recommends single- sourcing this equipment, as Pitney Bowes is the
industry standard and the City is able to take advantage of the Government
Acquisition Term Rental Program This is a month -to -month Term Rental
Program, and the City has the ability to change out this equipment during the
term rental if it is warranted It also guarantees fixed annual maintenance and
meter rental rates, making it more advantageous to lease the equipment than to
purchase it outright, and the City will own the equipment at the end of the rental
agreement term This equipment will funded from the Equipment Replacement
Fund

ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION
On September 5, 2000, the City Clerk received four (4) proposals On September 27,
2000, all four (4) consultants were interviewed by a six (6) member selection panel

Services Department
Three (3) staff members - Public Works Department (scores were averaged)
One (1) staff member - Caltrans Local Assistance
One (1) staff member - Metropolitan Transportation Authority
As required by Caltrans for retaining consultants on federally funded projects, the panel
evaluation was based only on qualifications and experience Inclusion of cost in the
review could disqualify the City from using federal funds to compensate the consultant
The detailed scope of services will be completed after the Council approves the
rankings Then, cost negotiations will be started with the top ranked consultant which is
the Parsons Transportation Group.
Based on the total of the individual rankings established by the panel members, the

AGENDA DESCRIPTION
Addendum No 2 to license agreement between the City of El Segundo and Hughes
Space and Communications Company (Hughes) (estimated annual revenue = $112.32)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION.
Approve Addendum No. 2 and authorize the Mayor to execute the addendum on behalf
of the City
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
On September 10, 1991, the City and Hughes entered into a license agreement that
provided for Hughes to install 25,000 lineal feet of 4" diameter communication conduit
within City streets. On April 18, 2000, the City and Hughes entered into an amendment
to the license agreement (Addendum No 1) to install an additional 2,800 lineal feet of
conduit within Walnut Avenue. Hughes has now requested City approval to install an
additional 908 lineal feet of conduit within Imperial Highway and Douglas Street, by
means of an Addendum No 2 to the 1991 license agreement.
The 1991 agreement provided for a unit fee rate of $0.10 /foot of conduitlyear to be
adjusted annually in accordance with the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Based on the
CPI difference (137.2 in 1991 to 169.7 in 2000), the current unit feet rate is estimated to
be $0 1237 /foot of conduitlyear (an increase of $112.32 per year).
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the amendment as to format.

Re: Request for Franchise Agreement
Dear City Representative:
0.0000i
DIRECTV
DIRECTV is currently experiencing a combination of rapid growth and office
space restrictions As a result, we are intending to relocate approximately 250
employees within our El Segundo campus
To facilitate this relocation, DIRECTV needs to run fiber optic cable between the
buildings located at 2230 and 2300 East Imperial Highway This fiber optic cable
will be used to provide voice /data connectivity among the employees located in
both these buildings
Occupancy of the 2300 building is anticipated by mid- November 2000 Any
assistance you could provide in the way of expediting this request for a franchise
would be greatly appreciated DIRECTV is aware of an existing franchise
between Hughes Electronics Corporation (DIRECTV's parent corporation) and
the City of El Segundo. If amending this existing franchise, in lieu of initiating a
new request, would be more expeditious then DIRECTV would be willing to do
so
If you have any questions regarding this correspondence, please contact Tom
Steele at (310) 964 -6242.
Sincere)
