The list of approved CDBG projects for the current 2001 -2002 CDBG Program
Year did not include the CDBG /Residential Sound Insulation Project Federal
CDBG guidelines require that the addition of a new proposed CDBG project or
activity must be properly noticed and that the public is given an opportunity to
comment on any proposed changes to the CDBG Program.
The City recently received an additional allocation of Phase 8 and 9 funds from
the FAA to continue the RSI Program Continuing the City's RSI Program under
Phase 8 and 9 may provide an opportunity for CDBG - eligible candidates to
participate in the RSI program Under the previous Phases 6 and 7, 12 CDBG-
eligible homeowners received financial assistance to supplement that portion of
the homeowners 20% contribution Under Phases 8 and 9 of the City's RSI
program, CDBG funds will allow between 8 to 12 CDBG - eligible clients to receive
financial assistance during the 2001 -2002 CDBG Program Year
Unprogrammed, unspent, CDBG funds held by the Los Angeles County
Community Development Commission (CDC) for the City's future use on
qualifying CDBG projects will be used to support the CDBG /RSI budget These
unexpended funds, maintained by the CDC on behalf of the City of El Segundo,
may be used in subsequent budget years for reprogramming into eligible CDBG
projects Currently, the CDC maintains an unallocated fund balance for the City
of approximately $100,000. With approval from the CDC, the City may use these
funds for reprogramming into eligible CDBG projects.
Staff has preliminarily notified the CDC of the pending CDBG /RSI project. The
CDC agrees that the request to implement the City's CDBG /RSI project is
eligible under the CDBG guidelines and that the unallocated funds are available
for reprogramming Thus, staff recommends that the CDBG /RSI budget be
approved at $100,000 in previously unspent, unallocated CDBG funds The
additional $100,000 project budget must be expended by June 30, 2002 It is
anticipated that construction on these 8 to 12 housing units will begin in October

homeowners to support all or part of the 20% portion of the cost of the

The Planning Commission held a public hearing on June 28, 2001 and adopted
Resolution No 2511 recommending the City Council adopt the Housing Element
and the accompanying Mitigated Negative Declaration (Exhibits E & F)

as the State's mayor housing goal In the pursuit of this goal, the Legislature has
mandated that all cities and counties prepare a Housing Element as part of their
comprehensive General Plan Section 65302(c) of the Government Code sets
forth the specific components to be contained in a community's Housing
Element The State requires that Housing Elements be reviewed and approved
by the State Housing and Community Development Department. State law also
requires that Housing Elements be updated every five years to feflect the
community's changing housing needs Jurisdictions within the Southern
California Association of Governments (SCAG) region, as is the City of El
Segundo, were required by State law to submit a draft Housing Element to the
HCD by December 31, 2000

1. INTRODUCTION
The City of El Segundo is located in the South Bay Region of Los Angeles County,
approximately 20 miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles. The City occupies an area of
approximately 5 46 square miles, and is home to approximately 16,400 residents and a large
daytime employee population of about 80,000 The City is bordered on the North by the Los
Angeles International Airport, on the West by the Pacific Ocean, to the South by the Chevron
Refinery, and to the East by the 405 Freeway These barriers isolate El Segundo's residential
and downtown communities from other South Bay communities Figure 1 depicts El Segundo's
regional location and City boundaries respectively
Given the lack of vacant residential land in El Segundo, combined with the City's predominately
commercial and industrial orientation, the City has experienced only lumted residential growth
over the past two decades, with an average annual growth of only three units per year since 1995
Many residents view El Segundo's stable residential neighborhoods and sound housing stock as
one of the City's greatest attributes The City's stock of 7,300 dwelling units is characterized by
a relatively even split between single and multi - family residences, although the 1990 census
documents a majority of the City's units (60 percent) are renter - occupied With relatively
affordable home prices and rental rates compared to neighboring coastal communities, El
Segundo offers a range of housing opportunities to the vaned income levels of residents in the
community
This 2000 -2005 Housing Element of El Segundo's General Plan sets forth the City's strategy to
preserve and enhance the community's residential character, expand housing opportumnes for all
economic segments, and provide guidance and direction for local government decision- making
in all matters relating to housing
A. STATE POLICY AND AUTHORIZATION
The California State Legislature has identified the attainment of a decent home and suitable
living environment for every Californian as the State's mayor housing goal Recognizing the
important role of local planning programs in the pursuit of this goal, the Legislature has
mandated that all cities and counties prepare a housing element as part of their comprehensive
General Plans Section 65302 (c) of the Government Code sets forth the specific components to
be contained in a community's housing element Table 1 summarizes these State requirements
and identifies the applicable sections in the El Segundo Housing Element where these
requirements are addressed

State law requires Housing Elements to be updated at least every five years to reflect a
community's changing housing needs El Segundo's Housing Element was last updated in 1992
and is currently being updated through the year 2005 as part of the five -year update cycle for
jurisdictions within the SCAG (Southern California Association of Governments) region The
Element sets forth a strategy to address the City's identified housing needs, including specific
implementing programs and activities The Housing Element is a five-year plan, extending from
2000 to 2005 The other General Plan elements typically cover a ten- to 20 -year planning
horizon
B. ORGANIZATION OF THE HOUSING ELEMENT
The Housing Element sets forth housing goals and policies for El Segundo to address the City's
existing and protected needs Specific housing programs to implement these goals and policies
are identified in the final Housing Plan section of the document. The El Segundo Housing
Element is comprised of the following major components
1 An analysts of the Citys population, household and employment base, and the
characteristics of the City's housing stock (Section 2)
2 A summary of the present and projected housing needs of the City's households
(Section 3)
3 A review of potential constraints to meeting the City's identified housing needs
(Section 4)
4 An evaluation of opportunities that will further the development of new housing
(Section 5).
5 A statement of the Housing Plan to address El Segundo's identified housing needs,
including housing goals, policies and programs (Section 6)

City of E1 Segundo Introduction
Housing Element 1 -5
G25
City residents have several opportunities to recommend strategies, review, and comment on the
El Segundo Housing Element The Planning Commission conducted three public study sessions,
and the City Council conducted two study sessions during development of the Element Each of
these study sessions was advertised in the local newspaper, and was televised on the City's local
channel Copies of the draft Housing Element were made available in public locations, including
the public library and City Planning Department public counter, the Joselyn Community Center,
and sent directly to the local Board of Realtors and the Park Vista Senior Housing Board
(represents City's low -income housing protect) After the State Department of Housing and
Commumty Development has reviewed the draft Element, public hearings were conducted
before both the Planning Commission and City Council Notification was published in the local
newspaper in advance of each hearing and hearings were televised As a means of specifically
soliciting input on the Draft Housing Element from organizations representing lower income and
special needs populations, the City sent copies of the draft Element to the following non -profit
housing and service providers, along with notification of public hearings on the Element Access
Community Housing (elderly /disabled/homeless), Habitat for Humanity-Los Angeles, Corridor
Economic Development Corporation (families), Los Angeles Community Design Center
(families /special needs), and Southern California Housing Development Corporation Planning
Commission and City Council will consider all public comments received and will make
appropriate revisions to the Draft Housing Element prior to adoption

2. HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT
Assuring the availability of adequate housing for all social and econormc sectors of the City's
present and future population is an important goal for El Segundo To achieve this goal requires
an assessment of the housing needs of the community and region This section discusses the
demographic, socio- economic, and housing characteristics of the City ofEl Segundo in an effort
to determine the specific housing needs of the City and its residents The Needs Assessment
section of the Housing Element will serve to identify the nature and extent of unmet housing
needs in the City
A. POPULATION
1. Population Growth Trends
The City saw a 12 percent average annual decrease in its population growth during the 1970's,
resulting in a population decrease of 12 percent from 1970 to 1980 In contrast, the 1990
Census reported that El Segundo's population was 15,223 persons, marking a population
increase of nearly 11 percent in the span of ten years since the 1980 census. This growth rate
was noticeably less than the 17 percent for Los Angeles County as a whole Cities surrounding
El Segundo, such as Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach, experienced growth patterns similar
to El Segundo, with decreases in population in the 1970's and modest increases in the 1980's.
As of January 1998, the State Department of Finance estimated that the City's population
numbered approximately 16,424, an increase of about 8 percent in the eight years since the
Census This rate of growth is Just slightly below that for Los Angeles County as a whole or that
of most of El Segundo's neighboring communities as shown on Table 2 and Figure 2

2. Age Characteristics
Age distribution is an important factor in determining market housing demand Traditional
assumptions are that the young adult population (20 to 34 years old) tend to favor apartments,
low to moderate cost condominiums, and smaller single family units The adult population (35
to 65 years old) provides the mayor market for moderate to high end apartments, condominiums,
and single family homes This age group tends to have higher incomes and larger household
sizes The senior population (65 years and older) tends to generate demand for low to moderate
cost apartments and condominiums, group quarters, and mobile homes. Table 3 shows the age
distribution of the population of the City of El Segundo in 1980 and 1990, and the proportionate
age distribution of all Los Angeles County residents in 1990

As shown in Table 3, the 1990 median age in El Segundo of 33.1 years is higher than the
County-wide median of 30 7 years The City witnessed significant proportional and numeric
growth during the 1980s in its young adult (age 25 -34 years) and mid -adult populations (age 35-
44) This working age population has likely been attracted to the City based on the tremendous
growth in the local employment base, particularly in the aerospace industry, and in the City's
comparatively affordable housing relative to other coastal communities in the South Bay
These characteristics, as an employment center with relatively modest cost housing, have
resulted in stable neighborhoods and a tightening of the housing market in El Segundo El
Segundo is a predominantly renter - occupied community according to the 1990 Census, with 60
percent of all households occupied by renters In conjunction with the growth in the young and
mid -adult populations, this may indicate a potential need for increased first -time homebuyer
opportunities in the City
In the younger age groups, growth has not been as pronounced, or has declined There was less
than a 1 percent increase in the City's early school age population (age 0 -9 years), and there was
an actual numeric decline in population for ages 10 to 24
More recent information provided by the El Segundo School District is shown in Table 4 This
data indicates that from 1990 to 1996 there was an increase in enrollment for all grades, with the
most pronounced increase in kindergarten and the smallest increase in tenth grade. Overall, there
has been about a 15 percent increase in enrollment, indicating steady growth in the school age
population Of the total enrolled students, approximately 10 percent are permit students, who
live outside the district but go there because their parents work in the City About 40% of these
permit students are in high school

El Segundo has about the same proportion of semors (9 7 percent age 65 and older) as the
County as a whole (9 7 percent) Between 1980 and 1990, the City experienced only a slight
proportional increase in semors, who in 1980 represented 8 0 percent of the total population
This increase, although slight, will likely continue to grow, and may indicate a need for
expanded housing programs such as semor shared housing, senior housing repair assistance, and
assisted supportive housing
3. Race and Ethnicity
The racial and ethnic composition of a community effects housing needs due to the unique
household characteristics of different groups Table 5 shows the changes in the racial/ethmc
composition of El Segundo between 1980 and 1990
City of El Segundo Housing Needs Assessment
Housing Element 2 -5

There were several dramatic shifts in the years between 1980 and 1990 The most notable of
these changes were proportionate increases in the Asian/Pacific Islander, Hispanic and Black
populations, although these ethnic groups still comprise less than IS percent of the City's total
population El Segundo's ethnic composition continues to be predominately White at 84 5
percent of the population However, this represents a decrease from 1980 when the White
population comprised 88 8 percent of the total
More recent data from the El Segundo Unified School District indicates that during the 1998 -99
school year 73 5 percent of all enrolled students in kindergarten through secondary grades were
White, 14 4 percent were Hispanic, 9.5 percent were Asian/Pacific Islander, and 2 6 percent were
Black These ethnic characteristics of the student population indicate that the White population
has decreased since 1990, while other ethnic groups have increased

El Segundo's ethnic make -up does not reflect the racial diversification that is occurring
elsewhere in Los Angeles County A greater proportion of the City's residents are White
compared to 41 percent of the County, while persons from the Hispanic and Black groups
comprise a smaller proportion of the City's population than they do County-wide (37.3 percent
Hispanic, 10 4 Asian, and 10 7 Black) The distribution of the remaining racial or ethnic
groups is similar to the County-wide distribution.

Because of the predommance of one racial group m El Segundo, successful housing policies and
programs must be sensitive to the different needs and preferences of other cultural groups
Household size, household composition, income levels and preferences to tenure are among the
factors which must be considered
4. Employment
According to the 1990 Census, and as shown on Table 6, there were 9,665 El Segundo residents
m the labor force, representing a labor force participation rate of 76.3 percent ofpersons between
the ages of 16 and 64 Most of the City's residents are employed in managerial and professional
specialty occupations (42 7 percent) or in technical, sales, and administrative support capacities
(32 2 percent) The unemployment rate reported in the 1990 Census was 3 4 percent, compared
to the County-wide unemployment rate of 8 percent The City's unemployment has continued to
fall well below the County, with the 1998 annual average documented at 3.0 percent compared to
6 5 percent in the County In April of 1999, El Segundo had an unemployment rate of 2 7
percent, compared to 6 0 percent for the County

in 1998, the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) prepared growth
projections for each jurisdiction in the region for population, households, and employment
through the year 2020 The employment projections for the City of El Segundo were as follows.

match between employment and housing opportunities so that most of the residents could also
work in the community Comparing the number of jobs in El Segundo in 1994 (55,106) to the
number of housing units in that same year (7,254) indicates a high job-housing ratio of 7.59
This is reflective of the large employment base in El Segundo Large employers include the
Chevron Refinery as well as major aerospace corporations such as the Aerospace Corporation,
Boeing Corporation and Raytheon
El Segundo is a lobs -nch community, and the SCAG projections indicate that it will continue to
be, with an estimated increase of almost 29,000 jobs projected from 2000 to 2020 The City's
large employment base relative to the small number of housing units, and the projected job
increases for the City, indicate that there maybe a need for additional housing in the community

B. HOUSEHOLD CHARACTERISTICS
Information on household characteristics is an important indicator of housing needs in a
community Income and affordability are best measured at the household level, as are the special
needs of certain groups, such as large - family households or female - headed households For
example, if a city has a substantial number of young family households whose incomes
compared with local housing costs preclude the option of buying a home, that city may wish to
initiate a homebuyer assistance program
1. Household Composition and Size
The Bureau of the Census defines a "household" as all persons who occupy a housing unit, which
may include single persons living alone, families related through marriage or blood, or unrelated
persons sharing living quarters Persons living in retirement or convalescent homes, dormitories,
or other group living situations are not considered households The characteristics of the
households in a city are important indicators of the type of housing needed in that community
Table 7 below describes the household characteristics for El Segundo According to the 1990
Census, there were 6,773 households in the City of El Segundo, about 56 percent of which were
family households This proportion is less than that of Los Angeles County as a whole, where 68
percent of all households consisted of families. Single- person households represent the second
largest household group in the City, comprising about 31 percent of all households (2,125) The
remaining 879 households fall into the unrelated non - family household category, which consist
of unrelated persons living together About 13 percent ofEl Segundo's households belonged to
this category according to the 1990 Census

Household size is an important indicator of a source of population growth A city's average
household size will increase over time if there is a trend towards larger families. In communities
where the population is aging, the average household size will often decline
Between 1980 and 1990, the average household size in El Segundo decreased slightly from 2.29
to 2 25 persons per household The California State Department ofFinance estimates household
size in El Segundo at approximately 2.37 persons as of January 1, 1998 This figure is
significantly less than the estimates for the City and County of Los Angeles (2 93 and 3 06
persons per household in 1998 respectively), and is fairly comparable with the relatively small
average household sizes of all of El Segundo's coastal neighbors. Average household size in
nearby cities is shown in Table 8

2. Overcrowding
The federal government defines an overcrowded household as one with more than one person per
room, excluding bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and porches Overcrowding in households
results from either a lack of affordable housing (which forces more than one household to live
together) and/or a lack of available housing units of adequate size
According to the 1990 Census, there were a total of 261 households (3 8 percent) in El Segundo
that were living in overcrowded conditions, compared to 19 percent Countywide Overcrowding
among renter - households was more prevalent than among owner- households Of the total 261
overcrowded households, about 204 were renter - households. In contrast, of the total
overcrowded households, only 57 were owner - households The Census indicates that 66 percent
of the households in El Segundo have less than .50 persons per room, therefore, overcrowdmg
does not appear to be a primary issue for the City.

3. Household Income and Income Distribution
Income is a mayor factor in evaluating the affordability of housing in a community. According to
the 1990 Census the median household income in El Segundo was $46,352, which is well above
the County-wide median household income of $34,965. In comparison with its neighbors, the
median household income in El Segundo was higher than that of Hawthorne and Inglewood;
somewhat lower than Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach, and significantly lower than that of
Manhattan Beach Figure 3 shows the City's median household income in comparison to
neighboring cities as well as to the Los Angeles County average.

The State Department of Housing and Community Development has developed the following
income categories based on the Median Family Income (WI) of a Metropolitan Statistical Area
(MSA) established by the U S Department of housing and Urban Development:
• Very Low Income 50 percent or less of the area MFI,
• Low Income between 51 and 80 percent of the area MFI;
• Moderate Income between 81 and 120 percent of the area MFI,
• Upper Income greater than 120 percent of the area MFI.
The 1989 MFI for the Los Angeles -Long Beach MSA ($38,000) was used to interpolate the
City's income distribution from the census according to the above categories The income
distribution of the City of El Segundo is presented in Table 9 Table 10 breaks the income
distribution of the City's residents down into the income categories designated by HUD

As shown, the 1990 Census documents about 27 percent of the City's households as earning very
low or low incomes The City is predominately a moderate and upper income community with
about 73 percent of its households earning incomes in these ranges
4. Housing Affordability and Overpayment
State and Federal standards specify that a household overpays for its housing costs if it pays 30
percent or more of its gross income on housing According to the 1990 Census, there were 6,773
occupied housing units in El Segundo Of these occupied units, 2,736 (40 4 percent) were
owner - occupied, and 4,037 (59 6 percent) were occupied by renters Table 11 summarizes
housing overpayment statistics by tenure for the City of El Segundo

According to the Census, 2,242 El Segundo households (33 percent of the City's total
households), were spending 30 percent or more of their income on housing Of these
households, 1,461 (65 percent) were renters, constituting slightly more than one -third of the total
renter households in the City The majority of these overpaying renter households earned less
than $35,000, with 37% earning less than $20,000 This may indicate a need for more affordable
rental housing in El Segundo, and/or rent subsidies for very low income households
City of El Segundo Housing Needs Assessment
Housing Element 1 -13 040
In households with incomes of $50,000 or more, the majority of households overpaying were
owner households While the extent of owner households overpaying for housing is not as great
as that for renter households, there still may be a need for assistance to low and very low income
homeowners. In particular, seniors tend to have limited and fixed incomes, as well as physical
limitations which may hinder their abilities to adequately maintain their properties
5. Special Needs Groups
Certain segments of the population may have particular difficulties in finding decent, affordable
housing due to their special needs These special needs groups, as defined by State housing
element law, include the elderly, disabled persons, large households, female- headed households,
farmworkers, and the homeless In addition, military households are a group with special
housing needs in El Segundo Table 12 summarizes the numbers ofhouseholds /persons in each
of these special needs groups in the City of El Segundo

The special needs of many elderly households result from their lower, fixed incomes, physical

• Income People over 65 are usually retired and living on a fixed income;
• Health Care Because they have a higher rate of illness and dependency, health care
and supportive housing are important;

Transportation Many seniors use public transit, however a significant number of
seniors have disabilities and require alternative transportation,
Housing Many seniors live alone and many of them are renters.
These characteristics indicate a need for smaller, lower cost housing units with easy access to
public transit and health care facilities
The Census shows that roughly 16.5 percent of the City's households were headed by elderly
persons age 65 and above Of these approximately 1,120 households, 454 consisted of elderly
persons living alone Members of this subpopulation of the elderly may have special needs for
assistance with finances, household maintenance, and other routine activities This is
particularly true of persons age 75 and older who are more likely to be the "&ail elderly " The
City currently provides services for seniors through its Senior In -Home Care and Home
Delivered Meals programs, which are supported with CDBG and City General funds The City
has approved $300,000 in funding for the 2000/2001 FY for the development of architectural
plans for a new Community Center in Recreation Park, in the center of the City's residential
area. The Center will allow the existing senior services to be consolidated and expanded into the
existing Joslyn Center, as the offices currently located within the Joslyn Center will be relocated
to the new Community Center.
The 1990 Census indicates that there were at least 57 persons age 65 and over living at the
poverty level This indicates that there maybe a need for additional affordable semor housing In
1984, the City developed Park Vista, a 97 -unit semor housing project for seniors capable of
independent living Rents are restricted to levels of affordable to very low -income households,
and occupancy is limited to El Segundo residents with incomes which fall below moderate
income levels Discussions with management at Park Vista indicate there is a need for an
assisted care facility in the City as a continuum for residents needing to move into a more
supportive housing environment
Disabled Persons
Physical and mental disabilities can hinder access to traditionally designed housing units as well
as potentially limit the ability to earn adequate income As shown in Table 13, the 1990 Census
indicates that approximately 10 0 percent of El Segundo's population age 16 years and older, has
some form of work or mobility/self -care disability
Although no current comparisons of disability with income, household size, or race/ethnicity are
available, it is reasonable to assume that a substantial portion of disabled persons would be
within federal Section 8 income limits, especially those households not in the labor force
Furthermore, most lower income disabled persons are likely to require housing assistance Their
housing need is further compounded by design and location requirements which can often be
costly For example, special needs of households with wheelchair -bound or semi - ambulatory
individuals may require ramps, holding bars, special bathroom designs, wider doorways, lower
cabinets, elevators, and other interior and exterior design features.

Housing opportunities for individuals with disabilities can be addressed through the provision of
affordable, bamer -free housing Rehabilitation assistance can be targeted toward disabled
renters and homeowners for unit modification to improve accessibility. Accessible housing can
also be provided through senior housing development

Large Households
Large Households are defined as those with five or more members The special needs of this
group are based on the limited availability of adequately sized, affordable housing units
Because of housing stock limitations, and the fact that large families often have lower incomes,
they are frequently subjected to overcrowded living conditions The increased strain which
overcrowding places on housing units only serves to accelerate the pace of unit deterioration.
The City will expand the services provided to large households with the development of the new
Community Center The Center is envisioned as providing a gymnasium, basketball court,
multi - purpose /lecture facilities, dance /aerobic studios, a banquet room, community cable
facilities and other community serving facilities
According to the 1990 Census, only 5 7 percent of all households in the City of El Segundo
consisted of large family households In contrast to many communities where large households
consist predominately of ethnic minorities and renters, large households in El Segundo are
predominately non -mmonty homeowners, and therefore do not expenence the same household
overcrowding problems as in many communities
City of El Segundo Housing Needs Assessment
Housing Element 1 -16
043
With one third of the City's housing stock comprised of three or more bedroom -umts, the City
has more than an adequate supply of housing units to accommodate the needs of its large family
households
Female - Headed Households
Single - parent households often require special consideration and assistance due to their greater
need for affordable and accessible day care, health care, and other supportive services In
particular, female- headed households with children tend to have lower - mcomes than other types
of households, a situation that limits their housing options and access to supportive services
The 1990 Census indicates that there are 575 female- headed households in the City of El
Segundo, 325 of which have children under the age of 18 These numbers account for
approximately 8.5% and 4.8% respectively of all households in the city There are 38 female -
headed households with minor children that have incomes below the poverty level
Farmworkers
Farmworkers are traditionally defined as persons whose primary incomes are earned through
seasonal agricultural work Farmworkers have special housing needs because they earn lower
incomes than many other workers and move throughout the season from one harvest to the next
The 1990 Census reported that less than one percent (85 persons) of the City of El Segundo's
residents were employed in farming, forestry, and fishing occupations Due to El Segundo's
urban setting and nominal farmworker population, the special housing needs of this group can
generally be addressed through overall programs for housing affordability
Military Personnel
According to the 1990 Census, there were 130 persons in the labor force employed in military
occupations The U.S Air Force base in El Segundo currently employs approximately 1,500
persons of whom the malonty are military personnel. Housing for base personnel is provided at
Fort MacArthur, Pacific Heights and Pacific Crest in San Pedro for all military ranks and their
families There are currently 574 units, including two -, three- and four - bedroom units Another
71 units are currently under construction at Fort MacArthur In addition, there are 52 single
occupancy units available in three dormitories Air Force personnel unable to be housed in
military housing contribute to the demand for affordable housing in the community

Homeless Persons
According to the most recent homeless study prepared by Shelter Partnership, up to 84,300
people in Los Angeles county were homeless on any given night between July 1993 and June
1994 1 Among these homeless people, there were approximately 12,400 homeless fammly
members, including 8,800 homeless children In the course of that year, up to 236,400 people in
the County were homeless Among these homeless people, there were up to 49,000 homeless
family members, including 12,000 homeless children As shown in Figure 4, the Shelter
Partnership data reflects a diverse homeless population.

homeless individuals on any given night. These individuals are fairly constant, and are

characterized as single men with drug or alcohol dependencies, and/or mental illnesses The
1990 Census reported that in El Segundo there were no persons visible in street locations or
emergency shelters for the homeless
At the present time there are no emergency shelters or transitional housing facilities within the
City of El Segundo, with the closest shelters located five mules away in Redondo Beach or in
nearby Lawndale However, the Salvation Army does provide the Police Department with
nominal funding on an ad hoc basis to assist homeless persons that come through El Segundo
These funds are used to provide fast food coupons, and bus fare which would allow
transportation to overnight facilities A spokesperson for the Fancily Crisis Center in Redondo

C. HOUSING STOCK CHARACTERISTICS
A housing unit is defined as a house, apartment, or single room, occupied as separate living
quarters, or if vacant, intended for occupancy as separate living quarters Separate living
quarters are those in which the occupants live and eat separately from any other person in the
building and which have direct access from the outside of the building or through a common
hall A community's housing stock is the compilation of all its housing units
1. Housing Growth
As of January, 1998, the State Department of Finance documents there are 7,340 dwelling units
in El Segundo, an increase of only 150 units (2.1 percent) since 1990 This growth rate was
approximately the same as that of the City of Los Angeles, but slightly less than the County
(Table 15) Meanwhile, El Segundo's population is estimated to have grown by nearly 1,201
persons (7 8 percent) during this time period There has been only a slight increase in the 1998
average household size of 2 35, compared to 2 25 in 1990

2. Housing Type and Tenure
Table 16 provides the breakdown of the City's housing stock in 1990 and 1998 by unit type. As
shown, while single - family detached homes remain the predominant housing type, the majority
of growth occurring in the City has been comprised of condominium and apartment complexes
with five or more units Due to the City's scarcity of vacant residential land, most of the growth
has been accommodated through recycling of existing lower density residential , and particularly
of smaller multi- family protects with 2 -4 units As indicated previously, the proportion of
owner - occupied households in El Segundo (40 4 percent) in 1990 is significantly lower than that
of renter-occupied households (59 6 percent)

3. Age and Condition of Housing Stock
Figure 5 shows the age of the housing stock in El Segundo In general, housing over 30 years
old is usually in need of some mayor rehabilitation, such as a new roof, foundation work,
plumbing, etc As indicated in Figure 6, the majority (about 68 percent) of El Segundo's housing
units were constructed prior to 1970. This represents a significant proportion of the CiWs
housing stock, and indicates that preventative maintenance will be essential to ward off
widespread housing deterioration. Some households, such as seniors who have owned their
homes for many years and have relatively low house payments, may just be able to afford their
monthly housing costs For such households, the cost of mayor repairs or renovation may be
impossible Assisting these households through a housing rehabilitation assistance program,
such as the existing Minor Home Repair and Residential Sound Insulation Programs, can help
preserve the City's existing affordable housing stock

The Building and Safety Department of El Segundo conducts quarterly code compliance
inspections in order to identify those structures which may be in substandard condition or not
compliant The inspection is conducted via a wmdslueld survey only and does not involve
interior inspections, therefore it identifies structures which appear to be in violation rather
than individual units These violations are added to the list of active Code Compliance cases
and are followed up by code compliance staff During the first quarter of 1999, the survey
showed a total of 18 residential violations Citywide which involved illegal construction or
additions, illegal home occupation businesses, or property maintenance issues such as
disrepair or lack of landscape maintenance. According to the City, most of these violations
were related to property maintenance, and no unit was found to be substandard or illegal.

Illegal units include garage, accessory structure, or single - family to multi- family unit
conversions During 1998, the City identified a total of 44 residential violations, or an
average of 11 per quarter The majority of these violations were also related to property
maintenance

Housing Prices
The 1990 Census documents a median housing unit value of $357,300 in El Segundo, about 58
percent above the county-wide median of $226,400, but well below Manhattan Beach ($500,001)
and Hermosa Beach ($431,500). More recent figures from the Califorma Association ofRealtors
(CAR) indicate that the sales price of housing in El Segundo has dropped since that time During
February-March 1999 the median price of a single- family detached home sold in El Segundo was
$313,250, lower than in the same time period for 1998, when the median price was $329,250
Median single - family home prices for this time period are shown below in Figure 6 for El
Segundo and selected neighboring cities El Segundo, Inglewood, and Lawndale showed a
decrease in median price during the 1998 - 1999 time period whereas Hawthorne, Hermosa
Beach, and Manhattan Beach, and Redondo Beach showed an increase The City of Hermosa
Beach, approximately four miles south of El Segundo, showed the largest increase in price
during tlus time period

The majority of the single- family homes shown have 4 bedrooms, wluch is reflective of the
sigmficant proportion of large -unit housing in the City, with one -third of the City's housing
having three or more bedrooms Of the total units listed, about half are
condominiums /townhomes The majority of these consist of 2- bedroom units As shown in
Table 18, there is only one 1- bedroom condominium unit listed for sale, reflective of the fact that
only one condominium prgl ect exists in the City with one - bedroom units. This project is a recent
apartment to condominium conversion The scarcity of 1- bedroom condominiums limits entry
into the home ownership market, which means that low and moderate income households may be
forced to remain in the rental market
Housing Rental Rates
The median contract rent for El Segundo according to the 1990 Census was $754 per month
This was lower than that for Manhattan Beach ($1,001) and Hermosa Beach ($863), but higher
than that for Hawthorne ($593) or Los Angeles County ($570) The 1990 Census also indicated
that of the 4,037 renter - occupied units, about 17 percent were single - family detached homes, and
3 percent were condominiums or townhomes.
Discussions with a local property manager mdicate that current (1999) rental rates in El Segundo
are fairly reasonable compared to those in immediate coastal neighboring cities A summary of
these rental ranges is shown below in Table 19, as compiled from recent newspaper
advertisements. For example, a 2- bedroom apartment could rent for as low as $750 per month in
El Segundo, whereas in Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach a 2- bedroom apartment begins at

The Apnl -May 1999 listings from the Daily Breeze document a median rent of $735 for a
one - bedroom apartment, $1,050 for a two- bedroom apartment, and $1,700 for a three -
bedroom apartment Rental rates for condominiums and townhomes were significantly
higher A total of 20 different units were listed in El Segundo during this one -month penod,
with only four tents having three or more bedrooms
Housing Costs and Affordability
The costs of homeownership and rent can be compared to a household's ability to pay for
housing, using the 1999 HUD - established Area Median Family Income (MFI) limits for Los
Angeles County of $51,300 Table 20 illustrates maximum affordable mortgage payments and
rents for a four- person household in Los Angeles County Affordable housing cost is based on a
maximum of 30 percent of gross household income going towards mortgage or rental costs.
These maximum affordable costs would be adjusted downward for smaller households
Comparison of these maximum affordable housing costs with the sales price data shown
previously, indicates that not even moderate income households (81 to 120 percent MFI) would
be able to afford the lowest priced single - family homes listed for sale in El Segundo It should
be noted however that asking prices are higher than actual sales prices. With earning power to
purchase a home valued up to $234,300, only 1 and 2 bedroom condominiums and townhomes
are within the range of affordability of moderate income households. At a maximum affordable
purchase price of about $93,000, it is not likely that very-low income households (51 % to 80%
MFI) could afford even a small condominium unit Although the condominium conversion
project at 770 W Imperial has 1- bedroom units that range from a selling price of $90,000 to
$102,000 that may be affordable to very-low income households, the affordability limit is based
on a four - person household. A four- person household would most likely not purchase a 1-
bedroom unit due to overcrowding The 2- bedroom units at 770 W Imperial sell from $119,000
to $139,000, which are affordable to low -income households The high price of single - family
housing, along with the shortage of 1- bedroom condommiums, indicate that the opportunities for
home ownership in the City are limited for lower and moderate income groups. In addition, the
downpayment and closing costs may still represent a significant obstacle to home purchase.
In terms of rental housing costs (Table 20), low income households can afford 1 -2 bedroom
apartments in El Segundo With the median rent of a one bedroom at $735, when adjusted for
utilities, very low- income households (0 -50% MFI) can not even afford a one - bedroom
apartment in El Segundo Moderate income households (81% -120% MFI) can afford virtually
all rental options advertised in El Segundo, with the exception of three bedroom condominiums
or single - family homes Rental rates at 770 W Imperial range from $650 to $675 for a 1-
bedroom unit, and from $850 to $1,000 for a 2- bedroom unit Although low -income households
could afford units in this complex, very-low income households could not

5. Assisted Housing At Risk of Conversion
State law requires the Housing Element to identify, analyze and propose programs to preserve
housing units that are currently restricted to low- income housing use and will become
unrestricted and possibly lost as low income housing Based on review of Federal and State
subsidized housing inventories, and confirmed by interviews with City staff, there are no
"Assisted Housing Projects" in El Segundo as defined by State and Government Code Section
65583 (A) (8)
The City does own Park Vista, a 97 -unit senior housing project developed in 1984 using City
funds While there are no affordability covenants associated with the protect, rents are
maintained at levels well below market Current (1999) rents are $248 for efficiency units, $398
for one - bedroom handicapped accessible units, and $498 for standard one - bedroom units
Occupancy is limited to persons who have lived in the City for at least one year, are capable of
independent living, and whose annual incomes fall below $30,000 for single- person households
and $35,000 for two person households The project is managed by the non -profit Park Vista
Board According to the project's managers, one - bedroom units are in greatest demand, with a
long waiting list for occupancy In addition, management indicates many seniors have to be
turned away from Park Vista who are no longer capable of fully independent living, and there are
no assisted living facilities in El Segundo for seniors in need of a more supportive housing
environment

D. REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS
California's Housing Element law requires that each city and county develop local housing
programs designed to meet its "fair share" of existing and future housing needs for all income
groups, as determined by the,junsdiction's Council of Governments This "fair share" allocation
concept seeks to ensure that each j unsdiction accepts responsibility for the housing needs of not
only Its resident population, but also for the jurisdiction's projected share of regional housing
growth across all income categories Regional growth needs are defined as the number of units
that would have to be added in each jurisdiction to accommodate the forecasted number of
households, as well as the number of units that would have to be added to compensate for
anticipated demolitions and changes to achieve an "ideal" vacancy rate
In the six -county southern California region, which includes El Segundo, the agency responsible
for assigning these regional housing needs to each jurisdiction is the Southern California
Association of Governments (SCAG) The regional growth allocation process begins with the
State Department of Finance's projection of Statewide housing demand for a five -year planning
period, which is then apportioned by the State Department of Housing and Community
Development (HCD) among each of the State's official regions.
SCAG developed the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) model for the 2000 -2005
period RHNA figures published by SCAG identify an overall construction need for 78 new
units in El Segundo This construction need is further broken down by income category- 14 very-
low income, 11 low income, 16 moderate income and 37 upper income, with an annual need of
10 new housing units
E. HOUSING IN THE COASTAL ZONE
Approximately 50 acres within the City lies within the coastal zone The area is a narrow strip,
approximately 0 8 of a mile wide and 200 yards in length All of this area is Zoned and has a
Land Use Designation of Heavy Industrial (M -2). The coastal zone is completely developed
with a major electrical power generating station owned by El Segundo Power/Dynegy, a Marine
Petroleum Transfer Terminal, owned by Chevron and a small retail service station Currently
there is no residential development within the coastal zone, the General Plan, Zoning and Local
Coastal Plan do not allow residential development within the coastal zone, and no changes are
anticipated in the future which would allow the development of new residential uses

3. SUMMARY OF HOUSING NEED
Assuring the availability of adequate housing for all social and economic segments of El
Segundo's present and future population is an important goal for the City To implement this
goal, the City must target its programs and monetary assistance toward those households with the
greatest need This section of the Housing Element is a summary of the mayor housing need
categories in terms of income groups as defined by Federal and State law It includes the City's
share of regional housing need as defined by the Southern California Association of
Governments' (SCAG) Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). The Cityrecognizes the
special status of lower income households, which in many cases are comprised of elderly or
disabled persons, single- parent households, or military households As summarized in Table 21,
the areas of greatest housing assistance need include the following
Households Overpaying forHousing - Approximately one -third of all households in El
Segundo are spending more than 30 percent of their income on housing Of these
overpaying households, two- thirds were renters, representing 36 percent of the total
renter households in the City
2. Special Needs Households - Certain segments of the population may have a more
difficult time finding decent, affordable housing due to their special circumstances or
needs hi El Segundo, the Needs Assessment documents the following groups with
special housing needs
• 1,120 households headed by elderly persons Of these households, 454 consist of
elderly persons living alone,
• 1,251 persons age 16 and over with physical disabilities,
• 575 female- headed households, over half of which (325 households) included
minor children Over ten percent of the City's female - headed households with
children were living in poverty,
• U.S Air Force base military personnel;
• 7 -10 chronic homeless individuals
3. Age and Condition of Housing Stock - According to the Census, 68 percent of the
City's housing units are greater than 30 years of age, the age at which housing typically
begins to require major repairs This represents a significant proportion of the City's
housing stock, and indicates that preventive maintenance will be essential to ward off
widespread housing deterioration
The City's quarterly Code Inspection Compliance program identifies housing units that
are in need of property maintenance or substandard In all of 1998, the City identified
44 residential structures with code violations These included properties containing units
requiring substantial repair as well as rehabilitation. The highest concentration of
residential properties cited for code violations are found in the northwest section of City
4. Housing Costs and Affordability - Spring 1999 residential multiple listings in El
Segundo document an average listing price of $457,573 for single family homes and
Ciry of El Segundo
Housing Element
3 -/
Summary of Housing Need
C 5 7
$221,651 for condominiums According to local realtors, the local housing market is
"hot ", with units typically on the market less than 30 days. Single- family housing prices
in the City are well above levels affordable even to moderate income households, and
while 1 -2 bedroom condomimums are generally priced at levels affordable to moderate
income households, there is only one condominium project in the City containing 1-
bedroom units Thus, the high price of housing, along with the shortage of 1- bedroom
condominiums, indicates that opportunities for home ownership in the City are limited
for moderate income households
Apartments provide the primary form of rental housing in El Segundo and rent for a
median of $735 per month for a 1- bedroom, $1,050 for a 2- bedroom, and $1,700 for a 3-
bedroom While these rent levels are generally affordable to low income households,
very low income households are priced out of the rental market even for one bedroom
units In addition, discussions with a local rental agency indicate that the demand for
rentals is high in El Segundo, and the availability of vacant units are scarce
5. Overcrowded Households - Household overcrowding in El Segundo is relatively
nominal, with only 3 8 percent of the City's households documented as having greater
than 101 persons per room, compared to an overcrowding rate of 19 percent in Los
Angeles County Overcrowding among renter - households was more prevalent than
among owner- households, with renters comprising 78 percent of the City's overcrowded
households The low incidence of overcrowding in El Segundo is reflective of several
factors almost 50 percent of the housing stock has 5 or more rooms, relatively limited
numbers of large family and minority households, and overall higher median incomes in
the City
6. Regional Housing Needs - The City is required to demonstrate in its Housing Element
the availability of adequate sites to fulfill the City's identified share of regional housing
needs by income category
SCAG is currently in the process of developing the Regional Housing Needs Assessment
(RHNA) model for the 2000 -2005 period Draft RHNA figures published by SCAG in
June 1999 identify an overall construction need for 78 new units in El Segundo This
construction need is further broken down by income category 14 very-low income, 11
low income, 16 moderate income and 37 upper income. The City has zoning in place to
accommodate over 400 additional units Over 300 of these are multi - family units at
densities of 18 -27 units per acre, thereby reducing development costs to levels affordable
to low income households for rental housing and moderate income households for
ownership housing

4. HOUSING CONSTRAINTS
The provision of adequate and affordable housing is affected by both market conditions and
governmental programs and regulations Housing Element law requires a city to examine
potential and actual governmental and non - governmental constraints to the development of new
housing and the maintenance of existing units for all income levels Market, governmental, and
environmental constraints that contribute to housing development in El Segundo are discussed
below
A. MARKET CONSTRAINTS
Construction Costs
A mayor cost associated with building anew unit is the cost of building materials In the current
Southern California real estate market, the single factor which has the most impact on the cost of
building a new house is the cost of building materials. It is estimated that these costs account for
approximately 40 to 50 percent of the sales price of a new home Typical residential
construction costs for a single - family home are approximately $78 per square foot
A reduction in amenities and the quality of building materials (above a muumum acceptability
for health, safety, and adequate performance) could result in lower sales prices. In addition, pre-
fabricated factory built housing may provide for lower priced housing by reducing construction
and labor costs Another factor related to construction costs is the number of umts built at one
time, As that number increases, overall costs generally decrease as builders are able to take
advantage of the benefits of economies of scale This type of cost reduction is of particular
benefit when density bonuses are used for the provision of affordable housing
2. Land Costs
The price of raw land and any necessary improvements is a key component of the total cost of
housing The diminishing supply of land available for residential construction combined with a
fairly steady demand for such development has served to keep the cost of land fairly high,
particularly in South Bay coastal communities Land holding costs incurred during the
development process also add to the ultimate price of a new home The two factors which most
influence land holding costs are the interest rate on acquisition and development loans, and
government processing times for plans and permits
City of EI Segundo Housing Constraints
Housing Element 4 -1
W211
3. Availability of Financing
Interest rates are deterrmned by national policies and economic conditions, and there Is little that
local governments can do to affect these rates Jurisdictions can, however, offer interest rate
write -downs to extend home purchasing opportunities to a broader economic segment of the
population In addition, government insured loan programs maybe available to reduce mortgage
downpayment requirements
Under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), lending institutions are required to disclose
Information on the disposition of loan applications and the income, gender, and race of loan
applicants As shown In Table 22, In 1997, a total of 343 households applied for conventional
mortgage loans to purchase homes in El Segundo About 70 percent of the applications were
originated (approved by lenders and accepted by applicants) and 11 percent were denied, with
the remaining 19 percent of the applications withdrawn, closed for Incompleteness, or not
accepted by the applicants.
The overall denial rates for conventional home purchase loans by Income of applicant shown in
Table 22 are logical, with low Income applicants exhibiting the highest demal rate (30 percent),
and moderate and upper Income households a much lower denial rate (10 percent) While the
earlier analysis of housing sales prices indicates low income households are effectively priced
out of the market in El Segundo, a greater number of moderate Income renter households may be
able to move into homeownership in the City's condominiums with limited public assistance

B. GOVERNMENTAL CONSTRAINTS
Housing affordability is affected by factors in both the private and public sectors Actions by the
City can have an impact on the price and availability of housing Land use controls, site
improvement requirements, building codes, fees, and other local programs intended to improve
the overall quality of housing may serve as a constraint to housing development
Land Use Controls
The Land Use Element of the City of El Segundo's General Plan sets forth the City's policies for
guiding local development These policies, together with existing zoning regulations, establish
the amount and distribution of land to be allocated for different uses within the City The City of
El Segundo General Plan and Zoning Ordinance provide for a range of different intensities of
residential land use, including the following
a) Single -Family Residential (R -1) - up to 8.7 dwelling units per acre
b) Two - Family Residential (R -2) - up to 12 4 dwelling units per acre
c) Multi - Family Residential (R -3) - up to 18 - 27 dwelling umts per acre
d) Neighborhood Commercial (C -2) - up to 10 dwelling units per acre (above ground floor
commercial use)
e) Downtown Commercial (C -RS) — up to 10 dwelling units per acre (above ground floor
commercial use)
In addition to the residential categones described above, the Medium Density Residential WR)
zone is used as a type of "holding zone" which can be activated within certain areas of the
Smoky Hollow Specific Plan and used in place of the base zone regulations This zone allows
densities from 18 to 27 units per acre to allow sufficient buffering and open space areas
while sustaining residential and supporting commercial uses in the Specific Plan area
An additional residential designation, the Planned Residential Zone (PRD), is to be used
specifically for the former Imperial Elementary School Site. This zone permits up to 29 single -
family detached units and 36 multi - family units The purpose of this zone is to encourage the
long -range development of residential property under an overall development plan for the site
Housing supply and cost are greatly affected by the amount of land designated for residential use
and the density at which development is permitted In El Segundo, 15 percent of the City's land
area (533 acres) is designated for residential use Multi - Family neighborhoods are by far the
most common residential use in El Segundo, accounting for over one -half of the residential units
in the City This designation includes apartment complexes, "stacked flat" -style condominiums,
and "townhome" -style condominiums
The City's Land Use Element as amended in 1992 documents a residential "build out" of 7,674
units, or 334 above the City's existing (1998) housing stock of 7,340 units This figure includes
vacant residential land and underdeveloped land The lack of available vacant land, therefore, is
a major constraint to the development of housing within the City The majority of the vacant
land available is currently in non - residential zoning categories, therefore, the principal options
City of El Segundo Housing Constraints
Housing Element 4 -4

available to expand the housing supply consist of infilllrecycling of lower density development
or underutilized land to higher densities
2. Residential Development Standards
The City's residential development standards, both on and off -site, are not considered overly
restrictive The density, setback, and other standards regulating residential development withm
the City are in concert with those being used by other surrounding communities The zoning
ordinance limits all residential building heights to 26 feet and two stones The City does not
offer a height bonus for affordable units, which could potentially inhibit the development of
affordable housing Residential development standards for the City of El Segundo are
summarized in Table 24

(3) Additional parking only required for new units Existing units may expand without adding
parking
The City's covered parking requirements for each housing type are one - family dwelling - fully
enclosed garage, two - family dwelling - fully enclosed garage, and multiple- family dwelling -

3. Provisions for a Variety of Housing Types
Housing element law specifies that jurisdictions must identify adequate sites to be made
available through appropriate zoning and development standards to encourage the development
of a variety of types of housing for all income levels, including multi -family rental housing,
factory-built housing, mobile homes, emergency shelters, and transitional housing. The
following paragraphs describe the City's provisions for these types of housing
Multi- Family Rental Housing: Multiple- family housing is the predominant dwelling type in the
City, comprising about 53 percent of the total housing units The number of multi- family units
has also been increasing due to recycling of underdeveloped single - family lots There are still
single - family homes located on land that is designated for multi -family use The City's zoning
ordinance provides for multiple - family units in the following three zones Planned Residential
Development (PRD), Multi- Family Residential (R -3), and Medium Density Residential (MDR)

ordinance provides for multiple - family units in the following three zones Planned Residential
Development (PRD), Multi- Family Residential (R -3), and Medium Density Residential (MDR)
City of El Segundo Housing Constraints
Housing Element 4 -6
F 6 5
Mobile Homes/ManufacturedHousing: The City provides for mobile or manufactured homes
within its residential zone districts if they meet specific standards Both mobile homes and
manufactured housing units must be certified according to the National Manufactured Housing
Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974, and can not have been altered in violation of
applicable Codes The units must also be installed on a permanent foundation in compliance
with all applicable building regulations and Title 25 of the California Health and Safety Code.
Second, Third and Fourth Units: The City's zoning ordinance provides for second dwelling
units on single - family residential zoned lots when the side lot line forms a common boundary
line with lots zoned for Iugher intensity uses The Code also allows a 3- family or 4- family
dwelling on two - family residential zoned lots which meet the same criteria The side lot line
must be adjacent to one of the following higher intensity zones
a) R -3, Multi - Family Residential,b) C -RS, Downtown Commercial,
c) C -2, Neighborhood Commercial,

g) MU -S, Urban Mixed -Use South,
h) P, Automobile Parking
i) M -1, Light Industrial (Two- family residential only)
j) M -2, Heavy Industrial (Two - family residential only)
Second units are also allowed on the front of any single family lot that does not meet the above
zoning conditions, if the existing unit does not exceed 700 square feet and was built on the rear
portion of the lot prior to December 26, 1947
Transitional Housing and Emergency Shelters: There are currently no transitional housing
facilities or emergency shelters within the City of El Segundo, and the City zoning ordinance
does not define or specifically allow for, or prohibit these types of facilities A program has been
included in this Housing Element to establish an allowance in the zoning ordinance to permit
transitional housing facilities in multi- family residential zones and emergency shelters in areas
zoned for commercial use under a Conditional Use Permit process
4. Development and Planning Fees
The City collects various fees from developers to cover the costs of processing permits and
providing necessary services and infrastructure. Fees are collected upon filing of an application
for developments that require a discretionary approval Fees are also collected at the time of
building permit issuance No school fees are required for new development west of Sepulveda
Boulevard, and there are no "Quimby" (Parkland dedication), art or childcare fees required for
any new development projects Additionally, refuse collection is free for single- family
residences and there is no utility users tax (electric, gas, phone and water) for any residential
users Impact fees (Fire, Police, Library and Traffic) are required to be paid prior to the issuance
of a certificate of occupancy All of these factors help to reduce the cost of housing in El
Segundo

Table 25 provides a listing of fees the City of El Segundo charges for residential development.
In addition, there may be other fees assessed depending upon the circumstances of the
development. For example, the builder may need to pay an inspection fee for sidewalks, curbs,
and gutters if their installation is needed, or the builder may need a Variance, Conditional Use
Permit, or Site Plan Review, The fees listed in Table 25 show those which are typically charged
for a standard residential development

5. Building Codes and Enforcement
In addition to land use controls, local building codes also affect the cost of housing El Segundo
has adopted the Uniform Building Code (UBC) which establishes minimum construction
standards. These nummum standards can not be revised to be less stringent without sacnficmg
basic safety considerations and amenities. No major reductions in construction costs are
anticipated through revisions to local building codes. Working within the framework of the
existing codes, however, the City will continue to implement planning and development
techniques that lower costs and facilitate new construction where possible Enforcement of all
City codes is handled by the appropriate departments and is typically coordinated by the
Community, Economic and Development Services Department The Planning Division enforces
the Zoning Ordinance.
6. Local Processing and Permit Procedures
The processing time needed to obtain development permits and required approvals is often cited
as a prime contributor to the high cost of housing. Additional time may be necessary for
environmental review, depending on the location and nature of a project. In response to State
law, California cities have been working to improve the efficiency of permit and review
processes by providing 'one -stop processing; thereby eliminating duplication of effort The
passage of Assembly Bill 884, which took effect on January 1, 1978, has also helped to reduce
governmental delays by 1) limiting processing time in most cases to a one year, and 2)
eliminating some of the "red tape" by requiring agencies to specify the information needed to
complete an acceptable application The City of El Segundo has fully implemented the
provisions of AB 884, as well as more recent legislation requiring the establishment of one -stop
permit coordination
Based on periodic surveys conducted by the City, local processing times are quite comparable to
those expenenced m neighboring communities. Currently it takes approximately 2 to 6 weeks to
review and process plans Many minor permits are issued in a much shorter time frame
including "over- the - counter" approval and permit issuance Additionally, the City allows the
issuance of separate grading and foundation permits pnor to the issuance of the buildmg permits.
Plans are allowed to be submitted to plan check prior to the Planning Commission and City
Council approval of the project Zone changes and Planned Residential Developments (PRD)
are typically taking 3 to 4 months to review and process for a public hearing, although this may
vary depending upon the type of environmental review required The Planning Commission
remains the only entity in the review process, unless the Planning Commission decision is
appealed In this case, approval by the City Council is required In addition, City Council
approval is required for a zone change and General Plan Amendment

C. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSTRAINTS
Asa City with a large industrial base, numerous environmental related factors are present which
pose constraints to residential development within El Segundo Historically, less than 25 percent
of the land within the City has been used for residential development The remaining land has
been used primanly for a mixture of light and heavy industrial purposes, including oil refineries,
aircraft and space vehicle manufacturing, cherrucal production, corporate research and
supporting office, commercial, and hotels The development invested in these properties is
substantial, making conversion to residential uses economically infeasible When sufficient
amounts of these properties have become available for recycling, the City has permitted
residential uses in a mixed -use environment west of Sepulveda Boulevard, provided that
infrastructure issues could be successfully addressed, and residential uses could be buffered from
non - residential uses
In comparison to other areas in Los Angeles County, the City of El Segundo is heavily affected
by traffic, air quality, odor and safety issues related to flight operations at Los Angeles
International Airport Those residential areas located near the northern boundanes of the City
are particularly subject to these impacts The Circulation, Air Quality, and Noise Elements of
the City's General Plan all contain policies that seek to minimize the negative effects upon these
residential areas, and help ensure the protection of area residents
Many of the industries operating in El Segundo use hazardous materials in their operations and
have sites which are contaminated by toxins Since heavy industry is the largest single land use
in the City, hazardous materials use and management is a serious consideration Heavy
manufacturing comprises about 30 percent of the City's area, which is made up almost entirely
of the Chevron Refinery The uses associated with the Refinery, Hyperion Treatment plant, and
two power plants preclude the development of additional housing in close proximity to these
facilities Although industries in El Segundo generate a diverse mix of hazardous waste, all
heavy industrial uses must conform to the policies of the City's Hazardous Materials Element
The location of major waste generators and industrial land uses are shown in Figure 7

5. HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES
This section of the Housing Element evaluates the potential additional residential
development which could occur in El Segundo, and discusses opportunities for energy
conservation in residential development
A. AVAILABILITY OF SITES FOR HOUSING
An important component of the El Segundo Housing Element is the identification of sites for
future housing development, and evaluation of the adequacy of these sites in fulfilling the
City's share of regional housing needs
Since completion of the residential sites inventory conducted as part of the City's 1992
Housing Element, the City has purchased a land use database from the County Assessor's
Office which includes information on parcel size and existing land use, including number of
residential units, for every parcel in the City Tins database can now be evaluated using the
City's GIS (Geographic Information System) and cross tabulated with residential zoning to
assess growth potential on every vacant and underutilized residential parcel in the City.
Table 26 presents the results of this residential sites analysts As illustrated in this table, only
4.1 acres (17 parcels) of vacant residential land remain in El Segundo, and can accommodate
a total of 44 new units
Underutilized residential proper-ties represent the area ofgreatest growth potential in the City,
and R -3 properties in particular The following methodology was used to quantify potential
new units on underutilized multi -family properties Using the City's GIS, the analysis
assigned a divisor to R -2 and R -3 zones based on allowable density, calculated the allowable
units based on parcel size, and then calculated the number of potential net new units based
upon the difference between existing and allowable units In order to give a more realistic
assessment of those parcels where land economics are most likely to support recycling, only
those parcels where at least a doubling of the existing unit count could be achieved under
zoning were included in the residential sites inventory in Table 26 As illustrated in this
table, a total of six acres of R -2 zoned property (32 parcels) and 21 9 acres of R -3 zoned
property (82 parcels) are developed at densities well below those permitted under zoning
Buildout of these properties to their maximum densities could result in a net increase in 32
units in R -2 areas at densities up to 12 units per acre, and 403 units in R -3 areas at densities
up to 18 or 27 units per acre, depending on parcel size
In addition to development on underutilized residential parcels, the City has designated two
significant non - residential parcels /areas for future housing use These properties are
accounted for under Recyclable Acres in Table 26, and are described below
The El Segundo General Plan designates the 5.7 acre former Imperial School site as Planned
Residential Development, the only location of this land use district in the City This mixed
density residential designation is intended to encourage design flexibility and provide
City of El Segundo Housing Opportunities
Housing Element 5 -1
073
transitional densities and uses compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhood
The General Plan permits a maximum of 29 single- family detached and 36 multi- family
dwelling units on this site
The City has adopted a Specific Plan for the area known as Smoky Hollow located north of
the Chevron Refinery which permits primarily light industrial uses The Plan does designate
a total of 14 acres currently developed with light industrial use for transition to medium
density residential (18 du/acre) Since adoption of the Specific Plan, one residential project
known as Grand Tropez has been developed providing 88 units Additionally, two other
developments, a 28 unit and a 26 unit, condominium projects have been approved
immediately to the east of Grand Tropez. The remaining 6.8 acres, which could be developed
at 18 units /acre, could provide for an additional 122 units in Smoky Hollow Existing
infrastructure which serves the existing light industrial uses within the Smoky Hollow
Specific Plan would be adequate to serve the future residential uses
In addition to the properties that are zoned for residential use in the City, there are several
commercial and industrial zones that could accommodate accessory residential uses, in a
mixed -use environment. The Downtown Commercial (C -RS) and the Neighborhood
Commercial (C -2) Zones allow one dwelling unit per parcel, or 10 dwelling units per acre,
above ground floor commercial uses Currently there are 8 8 acres of C -RS zoned property
with 18 units and the C -2 Zone has 7.1 acres and 85 dwelling units The Small Business
(SB) and Medium Manufacturing (MM) zones, located within the Smoky Hollow Specific
Plan area, also allow one "caretaker" unit per lot with a maximum size of 500 square feet per
unit Currently there are several existing caretaker units in the Smoky Hollow area These
zones have the potential to provide new residential units These new units could provide
affordable rental housing opportunities, particularly in the SB and MM Zones due to the
limited unit size and restriction to use by a caretaker only Additionally, the City's Zoning
Code allows the opportunity for joint -use, off -site, uncovered and tandem parking which
allows more flexibility for new development of residential units particularly on sites that also
have commercial or industrial uses
As indicated previously in Table 21, El Segundo's draft regional housing growth needs for
the 1998 -2005 planning period have been determined by SCAG to be 78 housing units,
including 14 very low, 11 low, 16 moderate, and 37 upper income units The City's
residential sites analysis indicates potential for 419 net new units in the City based on
existing zoning and General Plan designations The majority of these units are provided at
densities of 18 units and acre and above, thereby reducing per units development costs to
levels affordable to low income households for rental housing and moderate income
households for ownership housing

B. OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION
As residential energy costs rise, increasing utility costs reduce the affordability of housing.
The City has many opportunities to directly affect energy use within its jurisdiction Title 24
of the Califorma Administrative Code sets forth mandatory energy standards for new
development, and requires adoption of an "energy budget' The following are among the
alternative ways to meet these energy standards
Alternative 1: The passive solar approach which requires proper solar orientation,
appropriate levels of thermal mass, south facing windows, and moderate insulation
levels
Alternative 2: Generally requires higher levels of insulation than Alternative 1, but
has no thermal mass or window orientation requirements.
Alternative 3: Also is without passive solar design but requires active solar water
heating in exchange for less stringent insulation and/or glazing requirements
In turn, the home building industry must comply with these standards while localities are
responsible for enforcing the energy conservation regulations. Some additional opportunities
for energy conservation include various passive design techniques Among the range of
techniques that could be used for purposes of reducing energy consumption are the
following
*Locating the structure on the northern portion of the sunniest portion of the site,
*Designing the structure to admit the maximum amount of sunlight into the building and to
reduce exposure to extreme weather conditions,
*Locating indoor areas of maximum usage along the south face of the building and placing
corridors, closets, laundry rooms, power core, and garages along the north face to the
building to serve as a buffer between heated spaces and the colder north face,
In addition to energy - conserving design, local utilities offer the following energy
conservation assistance programs to El Segundo residents

6. HOUSING PLAN
Sections 2 through 5 of the Housing Element establish the housing needs, opportumhes and
constraints in the City of El Segundo The Housing Plan presented in this section sets forth
the City's goals, policies, and programs to address El Segundo's identified housing needs
A. GOALS AND POLICIES
This section of the Housing Element contains the goals and policies the City of El Segundo
intends to implement to address a number of important housing - related issues With a very
limited supply of land and limited public funding sources, El Segundo's housing objectives
are primarily to protect and preserve its existing housing stock hi addition to the small
amount of new construction anticipated on presently underdeveloped residential land, the
City will also provide an opportunity for private development of new units within the Smoky
Hollow Mixed -Use district, on the Imperial School site, and in the Downtown and
Neighborhood Commercial Zones
The following five mayor issue areas are addressed by the goals and policies of this Element
Each issue area and the supporting goals and policies are identified and discussed in the
following section
• Conserving and improving the condition of the existing stock of affordable housing,
*Assisting in the development of affordable housing,
*Providing adequate sites to achieve a diversity of housing;
*Removing governmental constraints, as necessary, and
*Promoting equal housing opportunity
Conserving Existing Affordable Housing Stock
According to the 1990 Census, about 68 percent of El Segundo's housing units are more than
30 years old, the age at which a housing unit will typically begin to require mayor repays
This represents a significant proportion of the City's housing stock, and indicates that
programs which assist with preventive maintenance may be necessary to avoid housing
deterioration
GOAL 1: Preserve and protect the existing housing stock by encouraging the
rehabilitation of deteriorating dwelling units and the conservation of the currently
sound housing stock.
City ojE/ Segundo Housing Plan
Housing Element 6 -1 078
Policy 1.1: Continue to promote the use ofrehabilitation assistance programs to encourage
property owners to rehabilitate owner - occupied and rental housing where feasible
Policy 1.2: Encourage investment of public and private resources to foster neighborhood
improvement
Policy 1.3: Encourage the maintenance of sound owner - occupied and renter - occupied
housing
Policy 1.4: Continue to promote sound attenuation improvements to the existing housing
stock
Assisting in the Development of Affordable Housing
There is a range of household types in El Segundo that need housing to fit their particular
circumstances For example, about 35 percent of the population is between the ages of 25
and 44 This may indicate a need for affordable homeownership opportunities The City
seeks to expand the range of housing opportunities, including those for low- and moderate
income first -time homebuyers, senior citizens on fixed incomes, very low -, low -, and
moderate - income residents, the disabled, military personnel, and the homeless
GOAL 2: Provide sufficient new, affordable housing opportunities in the City to meet
the needs of groups with special requirements, including the needs of lower and

land has been used primarily for a mixture of light and heavy industrial purposes and is not
available for residential use A total of 335 acres are designated residential/commercial
mixed use in El Segundo Limited land resources thus restrict the amount of residential
development that could occur in the City

B. EVALUATION OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS UNDER ADOPTED
HOUSING ELEMENT
State Housing Element law requires communities to assess the achievements under adopted
housing programs as part of the five year update to their housing elements These results
should be quantified where possible (e.g the number of units that were rehabilitated), but
may be qualitative where necessary (e.g mitigation of governmental constraints). These
results then need to be compared with what was projected or planned in the earlier element
Where significant shortfalls exist between what was planned and what was achieved, the
reasons for such differences must be discussed
The El Segundo 1992 Housing Element contains a series of housing programs with related
quantified objectives for the following topic areas Fair Housing Opportunities, Groups with
Special Needs, Preservation of Existing Housing Stock, New Housing Opportunities; and
Resource Conservation The following section reviews the progress in implementation of
these programs, and the continued appropriateness of identified programs The results of this
analysis will provide the basis for developing the comprehensive housing program strategy
presented in the final section of this Housing Element

Program H3 -3.IA. Develop a program to limit condominium conversion when such
conversions would reduce the number of low or moderate housing units available
throughout the City
Progress to Date: The City has received only two requests for conversion of apartment
buildings to condominiums since adoption of the 1992 Housing Element These
projects were reviewed on a case by case basis, and were both approved for conversion
based partially on a determination they did not reduce the availability of low or
moderate housing units
Objective H34 (Rental Stock Monitoring): Maintain a database of information on
vacancy rates, rental rates, and physical condition of the City's existing rental housing stock,
and utilize this database to evaluate programs affecting rental stock
Program 1134A. The City shall develop and implement a program in which it will

planning period were for 1,112 units, including 156 very-low income, 171 low income,
224 moderate income, and 561 upper income units Like other cities in Southern
California, El Segundo was hit hard by the recession in the early 1990's and has only
recently recovered During the 1989 -1999 period, a total of 149 units have been
developed or are under construction in El Segundo These include 71 single family
homes, 56 condominium units and 22 apartment units Over half of this development
occurred in 1989, with the last condomunum or apartment unit developed in 1990
However, three condominium developments (a 10, 3, and 26 -unit project) have been
recently approved for construction, reflecting the upswing in the economy.
Objective H4-2: To allow new opportunities to be developed within the Smoky Hollow
Mixed -Use designation as indicated by the 1992 Land Use Element
Progress to Date: A 28 -unit project was approved in 1993 for construction in the
Smoky Hollow Specific Plan While this project was never constructed, the
application is still currently active A second 28 -umt project (Holly Park Townhomes)

C. HOUSING PROGRAMS
The goals and policies contained in the Housing Element address El Segundo's identified
housing needs and are implemented through a series of housing programs Housing
programs define the specific actions the City will take to achieve specific goals and policies
The City of El Segundo's overall housing program strategy for addressing its housing needs
has been defined according to the following issue areas
• Conserving and improving the condition of the existing stock of affordable
housing,
• Assisting in the development of affordable housing,
• Providing adequate sites to achieve a diversity of housing,
• Removing governmental constraints, as necessary, and
• Promoting equal housing opportunity
El Segundo's housing plan for addressing unmet needs, removing constraints, and achieving
quantitative objectives is described in this section according to the above five areas The
housing programs introduced on the following pages include programs that are currently in
operation and new programs which have been added to address the City's unmet housing
needs
Conserving and Improving Existing Affordable Housing
Preserving the existing housing stock in El Segundo is a top priority for the City and
maintaining the City's older neighborhoods is vital to conserving the overall quality of
housing in the community Approximately 68 percent of El Segundo's housing stock is more
than 30 -years old, indicating that there is a strong future need for rehabilitation
1, Home Rehabilitation Loan Programs
The goal of these programs are to offer residents an opportunity to live in a safe and sanitary
environment, by offering rehabilitation assistance to lower income single family households
These programs include a grant program for handicapped improvements, and zero interest
loans for single- and multi- family rehabilitation
City of El Segundo Housing Plan
Hou mg Element 6 -13

la. Minor Home Repair Program (MHR)
This program represents the mayor effort by El Segundo to maintain and improve the City's
housing stock. The Program is supported by CDBG funds that provide for minor
maintenance and repairs on income qualified owner occupied units The City provides zero
interest deferred loans, due upon sale or transfer of ownership, up to a maximum of $7,500
for low -income property owners In addition, grants of up $1,500 are available to make
handicapped related improvements
Five Year Goal: Provide assistance to six households annually, and advertise program
availability through brochures, placement on the City's website, and in conjunction with the
City's Code Compliance program
1b. Residential Sound Insulation Program (RSI)
The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) provides rehabilitation grants for up to 80
percent of the cost required to insulate owner occupied single- family and condominium
ownership homes The purpose of this program is to renovate the home with modem sound
attenuation devices to reduce interior decibel ranges to acceptable levels The remaining 20
percent of the cost must be provided by the homeowner, but may be provided through the
City's CDBG funds for low income homeowners The City provides direct grants up to a
maximum of $8,000 for owner occupied single- family residences and $6,000 for
condominiums, for low- income property owners not to exceed the property owner's 20
percent obligation Approximately 700 homes in El Segundo have been identified for
insulation under this program, with over 120 homes completed to date
Five Year Goal: Encourage impacted residences to take advantage of program, with the
goal of completing insulation of all 700 impacted homes
1c. Countywide HOME Rental Rehabilitation Loan Program
As a participating city in the Urban County program, El Segundo is eligible to participate in
the County's Rental Rehabilitation Loan Program This program provides financial
assistance to rental property owners for the rehabilitation of multi - family units that are made
available to tenants at or below 80 percent MFI It allows the rental owners to rehabilitate
affordable rental housing for low- income families by providing financial support through the
utilization of public /pnvate funding sources to maintain existing rental properties
Five Year Goal: Advertise program availability through placement ofprogram brochures
at the public counter, on the City's website, and in conjunction with the Code Compliance
program
2. Code Compliance Inspection Program
The Building Safety Division of El Segundo conducts quarterly code compliance inspections
to momtor housing conditions throughout the City This allows for early detection and
prevention of deterioration in neighborhoods and helps to eliminate deteriorated property
City of El Segundo Housing Plan
Housing Element 6 -14
r) s 1
conditions in residential areas Residents cited for code violations are informed of
rehabilitation assistance available through the City and County
Five Year Goal: Continue quarterly code compliance inspections
Assist in Production of Affordable Housing
The Housing Element proposes several first -time homebuyer programs aimed at moving
renters into homeownership and promoting neighborhood stability In addition, new
construction is a mayor source of housing for prospective homeowners and renters However,
the cost of new construction is substantially greater than other program categories Incentive
programs, such as density bonus, offer a cost effective means of supporting affordable
housing development The City can take advantage of several programs offered through the
County that provide funding support for the development of affordable housing.
3. First -Time Homebuyer Programs
While single -family housing comprises the dominant housing type in El Segundo, the City
has become a predominant renter community. Homeownerstup prices are well above levels
affordable to low and most moderate income households The goal of these programs is to
increase homeownership in the community by providing mortgage and downpayment
assistance to the City's low and moderate income renters
City of El Segundo Housing Plan
Housing Element 6-15

3a. Countywide Affordable Homeownership Program (HOP)
The County offers a first -time homebuyer program for low -income households (at or below
80% MFI), including qualified El Segundo residents The program provides loans secured by
a second deed of trust which homebuyers may use to pay their downpayment and closing
costs Where appropriate, this program can be used in conjunction with new construction of
ownership housing, as well as the Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) Program
Five Year Goal: Advertise program availability through placement of program brochures
at the public counter, on the City's website, and through contact with the local real estate
community.
3b. Lease- to-Own Program
This program promotes affordable home ownership opportunities for low and moderate
income households earrung up to 140 percent of the MR, This program is utilized by a
growing number of cities in Southern California and is financed through tax exempt bond
issues and private long -term mortgage financing To initiate this program, a joint powers
authority from participating governments needs to be created to issue tax exempt bonds to
buy homes for lease- purchase The bonds are fully insured by the private sector Eligible
housing stock may be new or existing single - family homes or condominiums, and must be
owner - occupied
Under this lease /purchase program, the lease /purchasers must contribute the first month's
rent plus an untial fee equal to 1 % of a home's purchase price The joint powers authority
will put 3% down on each home The lease /purchasers will then make monthly payments
roughly equivalent to mortgage payments After three years of leasing the property, the
lease /purchasers can purchase the homes by assuming the mortgages. The joint powers
authority will also pay closing costs which will be discounted by the lenders and escrow
companies participating in the program
Five Year Goal: Contact the California Communities Home Ownership Alliance (CCHOA),
and Pacific Finance Agency to pursue participation in a Lease -to -Own program
3c. Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC)
As a means of further leveraging homeownership assistance, the City can participate with the
County in implementation of a Mortgage Credit Certificate Program An MCC is a
certificate awarded by the CDC authorizing the holder to take a federal income tax - credit A
qualified applicant who is awarded an MCC may take an annual credit against federal income
taxes of up to twenty percent of the annual interest paid on the applicant's mortgage This
allows more available income to qualify for a mortgage loan and to make the monthly
mortgage payments. The value of the MCC must be taken into consideration by the
mortgage lender in underwriting the loan and may be used to adjust the borrower's federal
income tax withholding
City of El Segundo Housing Plan
Housing Element 6 -16

Five Year Goal: Contact the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission
regarding participation in the MCC program
3d. Location Efficient Mortgage (LEM)
The LEM Program is a new demonstration program implemented by a partnership that
includes the Southern California Association of Governments The program rewards
homebuyers for purchasing homes within neighborhoods that reduce the need for a car, by
allowing them to qualify for up to $50,000 more when applying for a home loan These
"location efficient" neighborhoods are those in urban communities that are well served by
public transit and where destinations are located close together so that residents can walk or
bike instead of driving The homebuyers' savmgs in reduced annual vehicle expenses are
then counted as available income when lenders calculate the loan amount that a borrower can
qualify for Local lenders have been trained on how to originate the loan The residential
area west of Sheldon Street in El Segundo is identified as an area where potential home
purchasers are eligible to apply for an LEM
Five Year Goal: Promote use of the LEMprogram through the City's newsletter, flyers and
website, and direct contact wide local realtors and lenders.
Providing Adequate Sites
A key element in satisfying the housing needs of all segments of the community is the
provision of adequate sites for all types, sizes and prices of housing Both the general plan
and zoning ordinance dictate where housing may be located, thereby affecting the supply of
land available for housing The Housing Element is required to demonstrate the provision of
adequate sites under General Plan and zoning to address the City's share of regional housing
needs (RHNA), identified as 78 units for El Segundo, including 14 very low income, l l low
income, 16 moderate income, and 37 upper income units.
4. Land Use Element
The residential sites analysis completed for the Housing Element indicates the City can
accommodate just over 400 additional dwelling units under existing General Plan and Zoning
designations Close to half of these units are located within the Smoky Hollow Specific Plan
Medium Density Residential Overlay District (122 units) and on the Imperial School site (65
units), which would require removal of existing uses prior to development. Only4.1 acres of
vacant residential land remain in the City
Residential uses are also pennitted as accessory uses in several of the commercial and
industrial zones The Neighborhood Commercial (C -2), Small Business (SB), and Medium
Manufacturing (MM) Zones all allow one residential unit per lot The SB and MM Zones are
limited to one "caretaker" unit per lot with a maximum size of 500 square feet per unit
These zones have the potential to provide new residential units, which could provide
affordable housing opportunities due to their limited size and restriction as for use by a
City of El Segundo Housing Plan

caretaker on the property Additionally, the City's Zoning Code allows the opportunity for
point use, off -site, uncovered and tandem parking which allows more flexibility for new
development of residential units, particularly on sites that also have commercial or industrial
uses
Five Year Goal: Continue to provide adequate sites through General Plan and zoning to
accommodate the City's share of regional housing needs
5. Facilitate Development on Underutilized Sites
Due to the scarcity of vacant land remaining in El Segundo, the City can play an important
role in providing information to prospective developers on sites suitable for residential
development The City will facilitate development on underutilized properties by providing
potential housing developers with a list of underutilized Multi- Family Residential (R -3) and
Medium Density Residential (MDR) properties In addition, the city intends to advise
homebuyers and developers that they may pursue a variety of public and private funding
sources in support of affordable housing development
Five Year Goal: In order to bring the sites and funding together as a package before the
development community, the City will conduct a Developer's Workshop to discuss residential
development opportunities, available funding sources and local incentives for affordable
housing development
6. Sites for Transitional Housing/Homeless Shelters
The City's Zoning Ordinance does not explicitly allow for homeless facilities in El Segundo
The City will modify its zoning ordinance to permit transitional housing in appropriate
residential zones and emergency housing to commercial and industrial zones, all subject to
approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The CUP will set forth conditions aimed at
enhancing the compatibility of transitional housing and emergency shelters with the
surrounding neighborhood or commercial district, and will not unduly constrain the creation
of such facilities
Five Year Goal: Amend the Zoning Ordinance to reflect provisions for emergency shelters
and transitional housing by the year 2002
Removing Governmental and Other Constraints
Like all jurisdictions in California, El Segundo has governmental regulations that affect
housing development These include the charging of permit processing and development
fees, adoption of the Uniform Building Code, and the establishing of processing times for
tentative tract maps, and conditional use permits or variances Under present State law, the
El Segundo Housing Element must address, and where legally possible, remove
governmental constraints affecting the maintenance, improvement, and development of
City of El Segundo Housing Plan
Housing Element 6 -18
housing The following programs are designed to lessen governmental constraints on
housing development
7. Density Bonus/Development Incentives Ordinance
Pursuant to State density bonus law, if a developer allocates at least 20 percent of the units in
a housing project to lower income households, 10 percent for very low income households,
or at least 50 percent for "qualifying residents" (e g. semors), the City must either: a) grant a
density bonus of 25 percent, along with one additional regulatory concession to ensure that
the housing development will be produced at reduced cost, or b) provide other incentives of
equivalent financial value based upon the land cost per dwelling unit The developer shall
agree to and the City shall ensure continued affordability of all lower income density bonus
units for a minimum 30 -year period
The City will adopt a local density bonus ordinance to comply with State law and to specify
regulatory concessions to be offered The Ordinance will provide density incentives for
multi- family projects in the R -3 Zone A range of potential regulatory concessions will be
set forth in the ordinance, such as flexibility in height limits, reduced parking, reduced
setbacks, and/or reduced open space requirements
Five Year Goal: Adopt a local density bonus ordinance by 2002, and promote through
development of a brochure for distribution to the local Board of Realtors and local
developers, and through the Cttv's newsletter and website The City will also conduct a
"Developer's Workshop" to present information on available residential sites, funding
sources, and regulatory incentives under the Development Incentives Ordinance
8. Expedite Project Review
A community's evaluation and review process for housing projects contributes to the cost of
housing because holding costs incurred by developers are ultimately reflected in the unit's
selling puce Periodic surveys conducted by the City indicate that local processing tunes are
quite comparable to those experienced in nelphbonng communities. In addition, the City has
fully implemented the provisions of AB884 , as well as one -stop permit coordination
Five Year Goal: Continue to provide prompt project review to minimize protect holding
costs
AB884 took effect on January 1, 1975 and limits processing time in most cases to 1 year, and requires agencies
to specify the mformanon needed to complete an acceptable application

Promoting Equal Housing Opportunities
In order to make adequate provision for the housing needs of all economic segments of the
community, the housing program must include actions that promote housing opportunities
for all persons regardless of race, religion, sex, family size, marital status, ancestry, national
origin, color, age, or physical disability More generally, this program component entails
ways to further fair housing practices
9. Fair Housing Program
Fair Housing is a citywide program that provides assistance to El Segundo residents to settle
disputes related to violations of local, State, and Federal housing laws Also, Fair Housing
provides an educational program concerning housing issues for tenants and landlords El
Segundo contracts with the Westside Fair Housing Council, for fair housing outreach and
educational information and landlord/tenant dispute resolution The City will advertise the
program and continue to promote fair housing practices, provide educational information on
fair housing at the public counter Complaints will be referred to the appropriate agencies
Additionally, the City contracts with the Dispute Resolution Services (DRS) which provide
no and low cost dispute resolution for a variety of issues including housing disputes
Five Year Goal: Continue to offer- fan• housing services through a local service provider,
and distribute program brochures at the public counter and on the City's website

City residents have several opportunities to recommend strategies, review, and comment on the
El Segundo Housing Element The Planning Commission conducted three public study sessions,
and the City Council conducted two study sessions during development of the Element Each of
these study sessions was advertised in the local newspaper, and was televised on the City's local
channel. Copies of the draft Housing Element were made available in public locations, including
the public library and City Planning Department public counter, the Joselyn Community Center,
and sent directly to the local Board of Realtors and the Park Vista Senior Housing Board
(represents City's low- income housing project) After the State Department of Housing and
Community Development has reviewed the draft Element, public hearings were conducted
before both the Planning Commission and City Council Notification was published in the local
newspaper in advance of each hearing and hearings were televised. As a means of specifically
soliciting input on the Draft Housing Element from organizations representing lower income and
special needs populations, the City sent copies of the draft Element to the following non - profit
housing and service providers, along with notification ofpubhc hearings on the Element Access
Community Housing (elderly /disabled/homeless), Habitat for Humanity-Los Angeles, Corridor
Economic Development Corporation (families), Los Angeles Community Design Center
(families /special needs), and Southern California Housing Development Corporation Planning
Commission and City Council will consider all public comments received and will make
appropriate revisions to the Draft Housing Element prior to adoption

EXHIBIT B
Mobile Homes/ManufacturedHousing: The City provides for mobile or manufactured homes
within its residential zone districts if they meet specific standards Both mobile homes and
manufactured housing units must be certified according to the National Manufactured Housing
Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974, and can not have been altered in violation of
applicable Codes The units must also be installed on a permanent foundation in compliance
with all applicable building regulations and Title 25 of the California Health and Safety Code
Second, Third and Fourth Units: The City's zoning ordinance provides for second dwelling
units on single -family residential zoned lots when the side lot line forms a common boundary
line with lots zoned for higher intensity uses The Code also allows a 3- family or 4- family
dwelling on two- fammly residential zoned lots which meet the same criteria The side lot line
must be adjacent to one of the following higher intensity zones
a) R -3, Multi - Family Residential,b) C -RS, Downtown Commercial,
c) C -2, Neighborhood Commercial,
d) C -3, General Commercial,
e) CO, Corporate Office,

g) MU -S, Urban Mixed -Use South,
h) P, Automobile Parking
i) M -1, Light Industrial (Two - family residential only)
j) M -2, Heavy hidustnal (Two -family residential only)
Second units are also allowed on the front of any single family lot that does not meet the above
zoning conditions, if the existing unit does not exceed 700 square feet and was built on the rear
portion of the lot prior to December 26, 1947
Transitional Housing and Emergency Shelters: There are currently no transitional housing
facilities or emergency shelters within the City of El Segundo, and the City zoning ordinance
does not define or specifically allow for, or prohibit these types of facilities A program has been
included in this Housing Element to establish an allowance in the zoning ordinance to permit
transitional housing facilities in multifamily residential zones and emergency shelters in areas
zoned for commercial use under a Conditional Use Permit process
4. Development and Planning Fees
The City collects various fees from developers to cover the costs of processing permits and
providing necessary services and infrastructure Fees are collected upon filing of an application
for developments that require a discretionary approval Fees are also collected at the time of
building permit issuance No school fees are required for new development west of Sepulveda
Boulevard, and there are no "Quimby" (Parkland dedication), art or childcare fees required for
any new development projects Additionally, refuse collection is free for single - family
residences and there is no utility users tax (electric, gas, phone and water) for any residential
users Impact fees (Fire, Police, Library and Traffic) are required to be paid prior to the issuance
of a certificate of occupancy All of these factors help to reduce the cost of housing in El
Segundo

Ia. Minor Home Repair Program (MHR)
This program represents the mayor effort by El Segundo to maintain and unprove the City's
housing stock The Program is supported by CDBG funds that provide for minor
maintenance and repairs on income qualified owner occupied units The City provides zero
interest deferred loans, due upon sale or transfer of ownership, up to a maximum of $7,500
for low- income property owners In addition, grants of up $1,500 are available to make
handicapped related improvements
Five Year Goal: Provide assistance to six households annually, and advertise program
availability through brochures, placement on the Cuy's website, and in conjunction with the
City's Code Compliance program
lb. Residential Sound Insulation Program (RSI)
The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) provides rehabilitation grants for up to 80
percent of the cost required to insulate owner occupied single - family and condominium
ownerslp homes The purpose of this program is to renovate the home with modem sound
attenuation devices to reduce interior decibel ranges to acceptable levels The remaining 20
percent of the cost must be provided by the homeowner, but may be provided through the
City's CDBG funds for low income homeowners The City provides direct grants up to a
maximum of $8,000 for owner occupied single- family residences and $6,000 for
condominiums, for low -income property owners not to exceed the property owner's 20
percent obligation Approximately 700 homes in El Segundo have been identified for
insulation under this program, with over 120 homes completed to date
Five Year Goal: Encourage impacted residences to take advantage of program, with the
goal of completing insulation of all 700 impacted homes
lc. Countywide HOME Rental Rehabilitation Loan Program
As a participating city in the Urban County program, El Segundo is eligible to participate in
the County's Rental Rehabilitation Loan Program This program provides financial
assistance to rental property owners for the rehabilitation of multi - family units that are made
available to tenants at or below 80 percent MFI It allows the rental owners to rehabilitate
affordable rental housing for low- income families byprovidmg financial support through the
utilization of public /pnvate funding sources to maintain existing rental properties
Five Year Goal: Advertise program availability through placement ofprogram brochures
at thepublic counter, on the City's website, and in conjunction with the Code Compliance
program
2. Code Compliance Inspection Program
The Building Safety Division of El Segundo conducts quarterly code compliance inspections
to monitor housing conditions throughout the City This allows for early detection and
prevention of deterioration in neighborhoods and helps to eliminate deteriorated property

conditions in residential areas Residents cited for code violations are informed of
rehabilitation assistance available through the City and County
Five Year Goal: Continue quarterly code compliance inspections
Assist in Production of Affordable Housing
The Housing Element proposes several first -time homebuyer programs aimed at moving
renters into homeownership and promoting neighborhood stability In addition, new
construction is a major source of housing for prospective homeowners and renters However,
the cost of new construction is substantially greater than other program categories. Incentive
programs, such as density bonus, offer a cost effective means of supporting affordable
housing development The City can take advantage of several programs offered through the
County that provide funding support for the development of affordable housing
3. First -Time Homebuyer Programs
While single- family housing comprises the dominant housing type in El Segundo, the City
has become a predominant renter community Homeownership prices are well above levels
affordable to low and most moderate income households The goal of these programs is to
increase homeownership in the community by providing mortgage and downpayment
assistance to the City's low and moderate income renters

3a. Countywide Affordable Homeownership Program (HOP)
The County offers a first -tune homebuyer program for low- income households (at or below
80% MFI), including qualified El Segundo residents The program provides loans secured by
a second deed of trust which homebuyers may use to pay their downpayment and closing
costs Where appropriate, this program can be used in conjunction with new construction of
ownership housing, as well as the Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) Program
Five Year Goal: Advertise program availability through placement ofprogram brochures
at the public counter, on the City's websue, and through contact with the local real estate
community
3b. Lease -to-Own Program
This program promotes affordable home ownership opportunities for low and moderate
income households earning up to 140 percent of the MFI. This program is utilized by a
growing number of cities in Southern California and is financed through tax exempt bond
issues and private long -term mortgage financing. To imnate tins program, a joint powers
authority from participating governments needs to be created to issue tax exempt bonds to
buy homes for lease- purchase The bonds are fully insured by the private sector Eligible
housing stock may be new or existing single - family homes or condominiums, and must be
owner - occupied.
Under this lease /purchase program, the lease /purchasers must contribute the first month's
rent plus an uutial fee equal to 1% of a home's purchase price The joint powers authority
will put 3% down on each home The lease /purchasers will then make monthly payments
roughly equivalent to mortgage payments After three years of leasing the property, the
lease /purchasers can purchase the homes by assuming the mortgages The joint powers
authority will also pay closing costs which will be discounted by the lenders and escrow
companies participating in the program
Five Year Goal: Contact the California Communities Home Ownership Alliance (CCHOA),
and Pacific Finance Agency to pursue participation in a Lease -to -Own program
3c. Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC)
As a means of further leveraging homeownership assistance, the City can participate with the
County in implementation of a Mortgage Credit Certificate Program An MCC is a
certificate awarded by the CDC authorizing the holder to take a federal income tax credit. A
qualified applicant who is awarded an MCC may take an annual credit against federal income
taxes of up to twenty percent of the annual interest paid on the applicant's mortgage This
allows more available income to qualify for a mortgage loan and to make the monthly
mortgage payments. The value of the MCC must be taken into consideration by the
mortgage lender in underwriting the loan and may be used to adjust the borrower's federal
income tax withholding

Five Year Goal: Contact the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission

3d. Location Efficient Mortgage (LEM)
The LEM Program is a new demonstration program implemented by a partnership that
includes the Southern California Association of Governments The program rewards
homebuyers for purchasing homes within neighborhoods that reduce the need for a car, by
allowing them to qualify for up to $50,000 more when applying for a home loan These
"location efficient" neighborhoods are those in urban communities that are well served by
public transit and where destinations are located close together so that residents can walk or
bike instead of driving The homebuyers' savings in reduced annual vehicle expenses are
then counted as available income when lenders calculate the loan amount that a borrower can
qualify for Local lenders have been trained on how to originate the loan The residential
area west of Sheldon Street in El Segundo is identified as an area where potential home
purchasers are eligible to apply for an LEM
Five Year Goal: Promote use of the LEMprogram through the City's newsletter, flyers and
website, and direct contact with local realtors and lenders
Providing Adequate Sites
A key element in satisfying the housing needs of all segments of the commumty is the
provision of adequate sites for all types, sizes and prices of housing Both the general plan
and zoning ordinance dictate where housing may be located, thereby affecting the supply of
land available for housing The Housing Element is required to demonstrate the provision of
adequate sites under General Plan and zoning to address the City's share of regional housing
needs (RHNA), identified as 78 units for El Segundo, including 14 very low income, 11 low
income, 16 moderate income, and 37 upper income units
4. Land Use Element
The residential sites analysis completed for the Housing Element indicates the City can
accommodatelust over 400 additional dwelling units under existing General Plan and Zonmg
designations Close to half of these units are located within the Smoky Hollow Specific Plan
Medium Density Residential Overlay District (122 units) and on the Imperial School site (65
units), which would require removal of existing uses prior to development. Only 4.1 acres of
vacant residential land remain in the City
Residential uses are also permitted as accessory uses in several of the commercial and
industrial zones The Neighborhood Commercial (C -2), Small Business (SB), and Medium
Manufacturing (MM) Zones all allow one residential unit per lot. The SB and MM Zones are
limited to one "caretaker" unit per lot with a maximum size of 500 square feet per unit
These zones have the potential to provide new residential units, winch could provide
affordable housing opportunities due to their limited size and restriction as for use by a

,joint use, off -site, uncovered and tandem parking winch allows more flexibility for new
development of residential units, particularly on sites that also have commercial or industrial
uses
Five Year Goal: Continue to provide adequate sites through General Plan and zoning to
accommodate the City's share of regional housing needs 3
5. Facilitate Development on Underutilized Sites
Due to the scarcity of vacant land remaining in El Segundo, the City can play an important
role in providing information to prospective developers on sites suitable for residential
development The City will facilitate development on underutilized properties by providing
potential housing developers with a list of underutilized Multi - Family Residential (R -3) and
Medium Density Residential (MDR) properties In addition, the city intends to advise
homebuyers and developers that they may pursue a variety of public and private funding
sources in support of affordable housing development.
Five Year Goal: In order to bring the sites and funding together as a package before the
development community, the City will conduct a Developer's Workshop to discuss residential
development opportunities, available funding sources and local incentives for affordable l
housing development J
6. Sites for Transitional Housing/Homeless Shelters
The City's Zoning Ordinance does not explicitly allow for homeless facilities in El Segundo
The City will modify its zoning ordinance to permit transitional housing in appropriate
residential zones and emergency housing in commercial and industrial zones, all subject to
approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) The CUP will set forth conditions aimed at
enhancing the compatibility of transitional housing and emergency shelters with the
surrounding neighborhood or commercial district, and will not unduly constrain the creation
of such facilities
Five Year Goal: Amend the Zoning Ordinance to reflect provisions for emergency shelters
and transitional housing by the year 2002

and Community Development Department State law also requires that Housing
Elements be updated every five years to reflect the community's changing
housing needs Jurisdictions within the Southem California Association of
Governments (SCAG) region, as is the City of El Segundo, were required by
State law to submit a draft Housing Element to the HCD by December 31, 2000
The Planning Commission reviewed the draft Housing Programs on September
9, 1999 and October 12, 2000 On October 12, 2000, the Planning Commission
recommended that the City Council review and approve the Housing Programs
included in the Housing Element On November 8, 2000, the City Council
reviewed the Housing Programs and directed staff to submit the draft Housing
Element to HCD for review This was done on November 22, 2000 On Apnl 27,
2001, staff was notified that HCD approved the Housing Element with revisions
(Exhibit B)
IV. Analysis
The City has met the first requirement by submitting the draft document to HCD
prior to December 31, 2000. Now that HCD has approved the draft Housing
Element with revisions, it is incumbent upon the City to adopt the document The
Housing Element identifies housing needs, as well as goals, policies and
programs to address these needs, as required by the State. The City must also
provide the opportunity for adequate housing for all social and economic
segments of the City's existing and future population.
The 2000 -2005 Housing Element is comprised of the following mayor
components,
• An analysis of the City's population, household and employment base, and
the charactenstics of the housing stock. (Section 2)
• A summary of the present and projected housing needs of the City's
households. (Section 3)
• A review of potential constraints to meeting the City's identified housing
needs (Section 4)
• An evaluation of opportunities that will further the development of new
housing. (Section 5)
• A statement of the Housing Plan to address El Segundo's identified housing
needs, including goals, policies and programs (Section 6)
Due to the consultant's unavailability, a list of the revisions from the pnor version
was not available in time to be included in the packet An addendum will be
delivered on Monday.
Califomia's Housing Element law requires that each city and county develop local
housing programs designed to meet its "fair share" of existing and future housing
needs for all income groups, as determined by the junsdiction's Council of
Governments Regional growth needs are defined as the number of units that

important examples of the major penods of California
history or prehistory?
b) Does the project have impacts that are individually ❑ ❑ ❑
limited, but cumulatively considerable'
( "Cumulatively considerable" means that the
incremental effects of a project are considerable when
viewed in connection with the effects of past projects,
the effects of other current projects, and the effects of
probable future projects)9
c) Does the project have environmental effects which will ❑ ❑ ❑
cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly'
(a through c) The Housing Element is a five -vear policy document established to address the State's housing
goal of attaining a decent home and suitable living environment for every resident The Housing Element itself
does not provide for additional growth in the community, but rather works within the framework of the Land Use
Element, which establishes the type and intensity of future residential development permitted in the City The
Housing Element does not therefore, impact the natural or man-made environment of the community

Redevelopment Project
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
1) Discussion, and /or
2) Other possible action
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
El Segundo Power II LLC, a subsidiary of Dynegy /NRG is seeking approval from
the California Energy Commission (CEC) to replace two existing generation units
(Units 1 and 2) with three new units (Units 5, 6, and 7) at Its power plant at 301
Vista Del Mar in the City of El Segundo The new facility would be located at the
north end of the property The new facility would be a 630 megawatt natural gas -
fired, combined cycle electric generation facility. This represents a 280 megawatt
increase in capacity over the existing units Two obsolete fuel oil storage tanks at
the southern end of the property, adjacent to 451h Street would be removed The
protect would also involve the construction of new potable and reclaimed water
lines from the power plant through downtown

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: (Continued)
Page 2
Issues
In its review of the proposed project, staff has identified the following significant
issues that we believe have not been adequately addressed by the applicant
• The applicant has withdrawn a previous proposal to establish a 1.2 acre
public use area at the southwest end of the plant Staff has proposed a 7 acre
public use area following the removal of two large fuel oil tanks The property
could be used for a number of public purposes, including access to the
beach, picnicking, and a viewing area The applicant has not responded to
this request yet, The CEC staff will not support any condition requiring more
public use area than proposed by the applicant
• The applicant has not made it clear what its intensions are for the future use
of the tank farm area after demolition of the two fuel oil tanks
• Noise monitoring and construction impacts on property values are still a major
concern for the City of Manhattan Beach.
• The applicant has not satisfied AQMD air quality regulations for Particulate
Matter (PM 10) emission offsets Until this is resolved, CEC staff will not
recommend certification City staff has proposed a number of mitigation
measures to help reduce local air pollution impacts, including an alternative
fueling station located in El Segundo
• Staff has recommended establishment of a air quality monitoring station and
the donation of a sidewalk sweeper to help mitigate air pollution impacts
• It is no longer clear that the applicant will prepare revised air quality modeling
to attempt to reduce the height of the two new exhaust stacks from the
proposed height of 250 feet The current exhaust stack height is 200 feet
• The applicant has withdrawn its previous proposal to provide "pop -off' panels
as screening around the new generator equipment to reduce visual impact
This will have a major impact on the "look" of the facility
• City staff have not received adequate support from applicant for improving the
visual appearance of the perimeter of the plant through enhanced
landscaping
• Fish morbidity studies, a liquefaction study, slope stability study, and
alternative water supply study have not been provided by the applicant. City
staff believes these should be prepared before certification of the project to
properly analyze environmental impacts and identify mitigation measures
Additional comments are described in the attached Summary of Most Significant
Comments on the Staff Assessment, prepared by staff
Process
The California Energy Commission (CEC) has primary jurisdiction over all
thermal power plants in excess of 50 megawatts The CEC will determine if this
project should be approved or not The City of El Segundo is a responsible
agency with review and comment authority The applicant submitted an
application for certification to the CEC on December 21, 2000 The CEC has

conducted a number of public workshops to allow opportunities for the City and
the public to raise questions of the applicant about the proposed project On June
18, 2001, the staff of the CEC issued its Staff Assessment on the proposed
project and a public workshop was held on July 2 and 3, 2001 Additional
workshops are scheduled for July 17 and 18, 2001 Any issues that remain in
dispute between the applicant, CEC, and intervenors (The City has become an
intervenor), after the workshops will become the subject of evidentiary hearings,
which are more formal legal proceedings Previously scheduled evidentiary
hearings on July 9 and 18 have been cancelled The presiding member of the
CEC will then issue its proposed decision (PMPD) and additional hearings will be
conducted on the PMPD by the CEC The full CEC will then issue the Final
Commission Decision approving or denying the project
Due to the current energy crisis in the State of California, the CEC has been
under extreme pressure to expedite the certification process This has resulted in
very abbreviated review times for City staff throughout the process At the July 3,
2001 workshop, the CEC hearing officer acknowledged that the number
unresolved issues meant that the project processing would have to be slowed
down somewhat The hearing Officer indicated that the certification process
should be now be competed by the end of November
The City Council has authorized the hiring of a consultant [Environmental
Science Associates (ESA)] to assist staff through the certification process
Among other issues, the consultant has prepared reports for the City on
processing, municipal utilities, and PM 10 offset alternatives and exhaust stack
height modeling Staff may also ask ESA to testify as an expert witness during
the evidentiary hearings on the stack heights if necessary

AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration of revised Police Services Officer (PSO) job description to reflect addition
of Animal Control activities
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approve revised job description for Police Services Officers position.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION*
On March 1, 2001, the El Segundo Police Department began performing animal control
services as an "in house" function, meaning that City staff began providing services that
were provided previously by the County of Los Angeles One essential aspect of that
service is that the animal control function was added to the existing Police Services
Officer (PSO) job classification. Currently, PSOs are trained to perform animal control
services When assigned to that duty, individuals working in the capacity of "animal
control officer" receive a specific shift differential, as provided by the Memorandum of
Understanding between the City and the City Employees' Association (CEA) The
attached job description reflects the expansion of the PSO job class to include animal
control duties. The City and the CEA agree that the revised job description accurately
defines the current responsibilities and qualifications of the Police Services Officer
position

AGENDA DESCRIPTION*
Request to purchase two body wire - monitoring systems for the Police
Department's investigative Division The cost of these two body wires will not
exceed $22,000 This purchase will be funded from the "California Law
Enforcement Technology Program" grant
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approve request
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION•
Currently, the El Segundo Police Department's Investigative Division utilizes a
body wire monitoring system that is outdated and ineffective, leaving the
undercover officer without communication Because this system is over 10 years
old, it would not be economically feasible or technologically possible to upgrade
our current system
These new body wires would greatly enhance the level of safety afforded
detectives and citizens and allow greater overall flexibility in criminal
investigations
Both systems utilize a separate transmission capturing system that greatly
affects the monitoring ranges The audiolvideo body -wire can only operate within
a short distance of the receiver, while the audio only body -wire can operate at a
far greater range

City of El Segundo
Inter - Departmental Correspondence
7/5/01
To: Mary Strerm, City Manager
From: Tim Gnmmond, Chief of Police
Subject: Audio and Video Surveillance body wire
Problem: The El Segundo Police Department's Investigative Division conducts numerous
surveillances and undercover operations utilizing a body wire - momtonng device The body wire
and receiver currently used is over 10 years old, antiquated, and operates poorly The range,
reception and effectiveness have diminished to where officer safety cannot be maintained
Additionally, due to the age of the body wire, it would not be economically feasible or
technologically possible to upgrade our current system
Background & Discussion: To conduct effective investigations and maintain acceptable officer
safety levels during undercover operations, detectives need to utilize state of the art technology
and training methods This includes the use of a body wire - momtonng device capable of
delivering and receiving clear audio and/or video signals This type of information will greatly
enhance the safety of the undercover officer(s) as well as enhance the safety of officers executing
the search warrant Further, the use of both audio and video momtonng adds intelligence
gathering capabilities for suspect identification, location descriptions, interior layouts and vehicle
identification Moreover, audio and video recordings will enhance the development of the overall
investigation and in turn, increase the probability for a court filing and successful prosecution
Because of the differences in the two systems regarding transmission mediums used
(video /audio wire utilizes microwaves which can only be received a short distance from the
transmitter The audio only wire utilizes normal radio frequencies and can be received a
significant distance from the transmitter), effective monitoring ranges vary significantly
Deployment of either monitoring system depends upon the operation, the distance between the
body wire and the receiver and the level of officer safety required Both of these systems were
field tested by the detective bureau for clarity and range Both systems functioned extremely well
in these tests and were highly recommended
Proposal: The attached proposal and quote outlines a body wire monitoring system that provides
the ability to send and receive audio sound with a video image, or simply an audio signal This
proposal requests the use of funds from the technology grant, which is to be used for the
purchase of high technology equipment for law enforcement This proposal is also a sole source
request to Systems Engineering & Management Company (SEMCO) for the audio /video system
and the Frontier Group for the audio only system, These companies are either the direct
manufacturer or exclusive distributor of this specialized equipment The costs for both
monitoring systems will not exceed $22,000 (Refer to attached quotes from the Frontier Group
and SEMCO)
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council authorize funding not to exceed
$22,000 from grant funds for the purchase of both body wire systems

to provide more room for laying out of plan sheets and improved customer service when
services are needed simultaneously
Four ergonomically correct modular stations, in the Business License area, will replace
existing furniture, which was meant for typewriter use. These improvements will provide
a better utilization of the combined work area overall and much needed additional work
surface areas for staff.
The non - structural hallway partition wall in the Engineering Section will be removed to
provide more useable space for staff.
Finance Area
An additional doorway and window will be installed in the City Hall main hallway wall, to
the Finance Department These additions will provide access to the public seeking
service from the Human Resource section, which will be located there
The Improvements to these areas will include new paint and carpet.
It is estimated that Phase 1 will cost $387,500 and take from three to four months to
complete The East Garden area can be worked on during the day without disruption to
staff The work done in CEDS, PW, Business License and in the main hallway is
proposed to be done at night and /or on the weekends to minimize Interruptions to daily
business activities
Phase 2
West Garden Room
The West Garden room is proposed to be modified to provide workspace for nine staff
members of the Finance Department Currently, there are five staff members assigned
to this space. New ergonomically correct workstations will be installed which will allow
proper use of technology equipment.
The vinyl bathroom floors in this area will be replaced, appropriate cabling installed,
walls painted and carpeting installed in this phase of the project
Four staff members will be relocated to the finished East Garden Room so that work
can commence Provisions will be made to minimize construction interference with the
City Attorney's Office as well as with the Purchasing Agent. Upon completion, staff from
the Finance Department can be relocated here so that Phase 3 can commence.
Council Chambers
It Is proposed that the existing rows of chairs in the Council Chamber be replaced with
stand -alone chairs, which can be moved and reconfigured for other uses This
modification'wlll allow this room to be used for other events Also included would be the
replacement of carpet, window treatments and painting
N \COUNCIL 07UULY17- 13 (W edWSday 07/11/01 1100 AM)
It is estimated that Phase 2 will cost $266,200 and take from three to four months to
complete
Phase 3
The third phase of this project will provide for the installation of an elevator and the
modification to the main floor offices of the Finance Department to provide appropriate
space for the Human Resources Section as well as providing a larger conference room
The elevator will provide service between the main floor and the West Garden Room.
The public and staff members will be able to access both areas Another benefit is the
ability to transport equipment and supplies effortlessly between these two floors
Construction of the project in the Finance Department will occur at night to minimize
disruption to the public and staff.
It is estimated that Phase 3, including the $300,000 for the elevator, will cost $565,750
and take from three to four months to complete

Infrastructure Replacement Fund, the Emergency Reserve Fund, and other
funds, if necessary

Fund Balance Policy
1 Transfer $500,000 annually to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund
2 Establish target General Fund Unreserved, Undesignated Fund Balance
at a minimum $11 5 million September 30, 2000 level to grow annually by
Consumer Price Index, Inclusive of the $500,000 Transfer to the
Infrastructure Replacement Fund If General Fund revenues and other
sources do not exceed expenditures and other uses in any one year,
there will be no growth in the General Fund Unreserved, Undesignated
Fund Balance
Once target level is reached, transfer excess General Fund revenues and
other sources over expenditures and other uses or designations to the
Infrastructure Replacement Fund
The final audited FY 1999 -2000 General Fund Unreserved; Undesignated
Fund Balance is $11,513,913 This is unchanged from FY 1998 -99 due to
the direction of the City Council at the July 24, 2000 Policy Development
Strategic Session to transfer General fund excess revenues over
expenditures to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund
4 Establish target Infrastructure Replacement Fund at $2 0 million
Staff recommends keeping this minimum level in the fund Any excess
General Fund revenues over expenditures in any one year will be added
to this fund balance City Council may then appropriate specific_
infrastructure projects from this fund
5 Establish target Emergency Reserve Fund to be a minimum level of $2 0
million
The fund balance level at September 30, 1999 was $2 0 million, and it is
staffs recommendation to keep this the minimum level fund balance
Entenonse Funds
6 Annually budget funding $300,000 transfer from the Infrastructure
Replacement Fund to the Water Fund to help fund water infrastructure
improvements
Water Fund
The Water Fund's cash position has been steadily decreasing over a number
of years and continues to decrease by up to $1 million annually Funding for
various infrastructure Capital improvement projects have been postponed or
eliminated entirely
7/11/01 8 55 AM
223
It is staffs recommendation to adopt a policy to annually transfer $300,000 to
the Water Fund to help fund Infrastructure Improvements Staff also
recommends targeting the water rates at a level, which will put the Water
Fund back Into a positive cash position and finance the new water well and
future Infrastructure replacements A water rate study will have to be
completed to determine appropriate water rate levels needed to achieve this
objective
7 Annually budget funding sewer line replacements from the Infrastructure
Replacement Fund as recommended by the Sewer Master Plan
CIPAC has made a recommendation as part of the budgetary process to
fund $3 20 million worth of sewer line replacements over a period of 5
years, with $900,000 in the first year and $575,000 annually for the next 4
years This will fund the top priority sewer Imes, which must be replaced
first At the end of five years, CIPAC will then review and make
recommendations for the next phase of sewer line funding consistent with
the Sewer Master Plan It is staffs recommendation to adopt a funding
level toward sewer improvements as recommended by CIPAC
Balanced Operating Budget
The City Council's policy is that General Fund annually adopted Appropriations

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION (CONTINUED):
The purpose of this report is to review the status of the FY 2000 -2001 budget for the
period of October 1, 2000 through September 30, 2001 and to approve staffs
recommended FY 2001 -2002 Estimated Revenue and Appropriation assumptions
OBJECTIVE
The focus of this report is to review the status of all revenues and expenditures through
March 31, 2001 and determine if the City is on target with the FY 2000 -2001 budget An
additional objective is to adopt staffs recommended FY 2001 -2002 Estimated Revenue
and Appropriations assumptions
This report is an analysis of estimated totals for revenues, operating expenditures, and
capital expenditures in all funds
REVENUES
The following is an analysis of General Fund revenues by ten mayor categones
a. Property Taxes
This category is estimated to come in on target with budget The City previously recorded
a liability to address anticipated successful appeals on reducing assessed valuations The
September 30, 2000 balance of this liability is $340,000 and will be eliminated at
September 30, 2001 since negative assessment appeals have significantly declined
b. Other Taxes (Includes Sales Tax, Utilitv User's Tax. Other Tax. and
This category is estimated to come in $12 million or 400% over budget mainly attributable
to an estimated estimated increase in Utility User's Taxes
Sales Tax and Transient Occupancy Taxes are currently on target with budget
c. Business License Fees
This category is estimated to come in $238,450 over budget We have received
$9,189,200 or 100 8% of budget through May 31, 2001 This is mainly attributable to the
Business Task Force recommendations, which were adopted by the City Council in FY
1998 -99 The results of this program have permanently increased business license
revenues due to an amnesty program in FY 1998 -99 and 28 business license tax audits
which have been conducted by Diehl Evans and Associates in FY 1999 -2000 and 2000-
2001 Staff has worked with a number of key businesses to develop a procedure for
tracking independent contractors and improving compliance with the Municipal Code
Also, staff is currently developing a business license code enforcement policy, which is the
last phase of the task force recommendations
226
d. Fines and Forfeitures
This category is estimated to come in $48,250 or 15 9% lower than budget mainly
attributable to a decrease in parking fines
e. Interest and Rentals
This category is estimated to come in $461,800 or 17 0% higher than budget attributable
to a higher than originally anticipated cash balance
f. Intergovernmental Revenues
This category is estimated to come in slightly higher than budget attributable to an
increase in Motor Vehicle in Lieu fees The State of California is rebating 67 5% of motor
vehicle registration fees to the taxpayers and backfilling the cities to make them whole It
is uncertain how long the backfill will continue into the future
g. Charges for Services
This category is estimated to come in $363,350 or 10 9% higher than budget This is
mainly attributable to increases in Plan Check fees, Paramedic Transport fees, and the
Annual Water Quality Surcharge
Four other General Fund categories including Other License and Permits, Charges for
Services, Other Revenues, and Transfers In, and are on target with budget
Total Estimated Revenues
Overall, General Fund revenues are currently estimated to come in $13 1 million higher
than budget mainly attributable to one -time unanticipated increases in Utility User's taxes
Revenues in other funds are on target with budget
GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
The following is an analysis of General Fund expenditures by mayor categories
a. Elected Officials and Administrative Support Services
These functions combined are estimated to come in $174,850 less than budget
attributable primarily to technology projects which will not be completed this fiscal year
The Human Resources Department is estimated to come in $42,000 higher than budget
attributable to higher than anticipated costs in advertising and executive physicals
All other divisions within these two categories appear to be on target with budget
227
b. Non Department
Non - Department, which includes Community Promotion, LAX Master Plan Intervention,
Insurance and Bonds, and other citywide expenditures are currently estimated to come
in $286,500 under budget mainly attributable to LAX Master Plan Intervention
expenditures coming in $239,000 under budget
c. Public Safetv
This category includes both the Police and Fire Departments and is estimated to come
in on target with budget
The Police Department expenditures are estimated to come in less than budget mainly
attributable to vacancies in the Crime Investigation division
The Fire Department expenditures are estimated to come in over budget mainly
attributable to overtime in Fair Labor Standards Act overtime and leave replacement
within the Fire Suppression division
d. Development Services
The Development Services function includes the Community, Economic and
Development Services Department, which consists of the Planning, Budding Safety, and
Economic Development divisions
The function is estimated to come in $53,600 less than budget
e. Public Works
This function's General Fund divisions consist of Government Buildings, Engineering,
Street Services, Street Maintenance, Traffic Safety, Solid Waste Recycling,
Wastewater, Storm Drains, Equipment Maintenance, and Administration
Other funds in this function include Gas Tax, Facilities Maintenance, and Water
Operations
The total category is currently estimated to come in on target with budget
f. Recreation and Cultural
The Recreational and Cultural function includes the Recreation and Parks Department
and the Library Department Overall this function is estimated come in $22,500 or 3%
less than budget
The Recreation and Parks Department overall is estimated to come in $23,550 less
than budget mainly attributable to decreases in the Golf Course Fund, which are offset
by increases in the Aquatics division of the General Fund
Within the department, the Recreation Operations - Aquatics division is estimated to
come in $30,150 over budget attributable to increases in gas utility costs.
2) 20'
The Golf Course Fund is estimated to come in $80,450 below budget and is explained
in more detail in the Enterprise Fund section below
The Library is estimated to come in on target with budget
Total General Fund Estimated Expenditures
General Fund expenditures are estimated to come in $357,450 less than budget
Expenditures within the General Fund, with the exceptions of Fire and Human
Resources, are estimated to be on target with budget
OTHER FUND EXPENDITURES
Expenditures within the Special Revenue, Capital Project, Enterprise and Internal
Service Funds, with two exceptions noted below, are estimated to be on target with
budget, and no budget adjustments are necessary at this time
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
In the Capital Improvement Projects budget, there will be $4,266,150 unspent in FY
2000 -2001, which will be carried forward and rebudgeted in future years This is
consistent with Council's philosophy to fully fund future projects when possible in the
current year
The Enterprise Funds consist of the Water and Golf Course Funds
Water Fund
The Water Fund retained earnings and cash have been declining at more than $1
million per year, and independently of the future water well project, the City will have to
increase the water rates to fund the future operations
The Water Fund operating expenses and revenues are anticipated to come to on target
with a shortfall in net income of $814,750 still expected
Golf Course Fund
Revenues are estimated to come in 2 6% below budget
Expenses are estimated to come in $80,450 or 3 6% below budget mainly attributable to
an anticipated decrease in service charges within the Golf Course Administration
division
INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS
Internal Service Funds consist of Workers' Compensation and General Liability Funds
The City is self - insured for both Workers' Compensation claims of $250,000 per incident
and General Liability claims of $400,000 per incident and is fully funded through
transfers from the General Fund The category is currently estimated to come in below
229
budget mainly attributable to an anticipated decrease in claims expenses within the
Liability Insurance fund
RECOMMENDED BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS
Since General Fund revenues are estimated to come in substantially higher than
budget, there are a number of recommended one -time Capital Improvement Protects to
be funded at this time
1 Allocate $150,000 for a new Skateboard Park
2 Designate an additional $250,000 for Fire Station # 2
3 Allocate $14 million for Sepulveda Widening Project cost overrun The City
previously committed to this widening project in conjunction with Cal Trans,
Southern California Edison, and the cities of Manhattan Beach and El Segundo
The project has incurred $650,000 in additional costs attributable to Southern
California Edison underground costs and $750,000 additional costs for water main
installation and temporary lighting Staff estimates dust over $400,000 in MTA funds
are still available for this project Any additional MTA funds received from County
Department of Public Works will be used to offset the total estimated $14 million
cost
4 Allocate $2 2 million for Douglas street gap closure project This is currently the
anticipated city match to the federal funding of the project
Designate Gas UUT excess for Community Center
The City's revenues are coming in very strong, specifically in the area of gas Utility User's
Taxes With the uncertainty of the impacts of the electricity crisis on the California and
local economy, staff is recommending designating, not appropriating, $6 million of the
additional Gas Utility User's Tax toward the construction of a new Community Center
Since this revenue source is so unpredictable and very unlikely to continue at this level
in the future, staff recommends putting the additional revenue into a use such as this
that will benefit the entire community for the next 30 years
Staff further recommends transferring any unanticipated Gas Utility User's Tax, after
designating $6 0 million to the Community Center, to the Infrastructure Replacement
Fund
CONCLUSION
The current energy crisis' potential impact on California's economy is of increasing
concern The City's electric and gas utility costs have substantially increased This is
currently offset by an increase in gas and electric utility user's taxes, however, there is
pending legislation to cap the increases cities are receiving without any caps on the
expenditure side There is also much pressure by the state legislature to refund excess
electric costs charged by wholesale electric producers
230
FY 2001 -2002 REVENUE BUDGET ASSUMPTIONS
Included below is a list of FY 2000 -2001 revenue budget assumptions
➢ Projected growth in most revenues is assumed to be 4%
➢ Property Taxes are assumed to increase 6 %, which is the estimated increase in
assessed valuation for the entire Los Angeles County This percentage change
will be revised prior to budget adoption when staff receives the City's specific
increase in assessed valuation
➢ Utility User's Tax revenues are projected to increase substantially over FY 2000-
2001 Adopted Budget and then will gradually stabilize over time as gas and
electric costs stabilize
Transient Occupancy taxes are estimated to remain the same level as FY 2000-
2001 since no new hotels are planned to open in FY 2001 -2002
➢ Business License taxes are assumed to increase $16,450 attributable to an
overall growth in commercial and industrial business Since there is no cost of
living indexing, this revenue source is expected to gradually erode
➢ Gross revenues are assumed to remain flat for calculating franchise taxes
➢ Budget assumes $104 6 million improvement valuation related to new
commercial and industrial construction projects
➢ Property Taxes based on this new construction are estimated to be $67,000
➢ The Water Fund currently assumes no water rate increase, but future rate
increases will be implemented with the issuance of water well bonds
FY 2001 -2002 APPROPRIATION ASSUMPTIONS
➢ The objective of the budget is to maintain service levels through current staffing
and appropriate contracted services Any new positions recommended would be
the result of organizational audits Scheduled maintenance programs for streets,
trees, parks and parkway activities will be continued and, in some cases,
enhanced
➢ Capital improvement appropriations totaling $5 76 million are recommended by
the Capital Improvement Project Advisory Committee Contract positions for
overseeing capital improvement projects may be recommended
➢ On July 17, 2001, City Council will be considering adoption of a fund balance
policy, which recommends fixing the General Fund unreserved, undesignated
fund balance at $11.5 million, transferring $500,000 to the Infrastructure
Replacement Fund inclusive of a CPI increase, and transferring excess General
Fund Revenues and Other Sources over General Fund expenditures and Other
Uses after all designations to the Infrastructure Replacement Fund
231
On July 17, 2001 City Council will be considering designating $6,000,000 from
the FY 2000 -2001 General Fund unanticipated Gas Utility User's Taxes toward a
new Community Center
Budget will include funding of phase 8 of the Residential Sound Insulation
program to complete an additional estimated 50 homes Funding of phase 9
beginning in FY 2002 -2003 will complete an additional estimated 100 homes

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: July 17, 2001
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: New Business
AGENDA DESCRIPTION'
Consideration of a request by the City Council ad hoc subcommittee on electrical power
to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an engineering feasibility study to evaluate
the potential of forming a municipal electric utility in the City of El Segundo.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION.
Authorize staff to develop a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit proposals from
qualified firms to develop an engineering and feasibility study with regard to forming a
municipal utility in the City of El Segundo.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The City Council ad hoc subcommittee on electrical power met to discuss growing
concerns in the business community regarding the current and future reliability of
electrical power in El Segundo. The concerns centered on the continued threat of
rolling blackouts implemented statewide by the Independent System Operator (ISO) and
the inability of three major investor owned utilities in the state to forestall that threat
Accordingly, the subcommittee met with a consultant with expertise on statewide power
issues to discuss a variety of options, including the City becoming an Electric Service
Provider (ESP) or municipal utility All options were discussed with regard to their ability
to ensure a reliable and uninterruptible source of electricity in the community.

Background and Discussion (con't)
The consultant indicated that the only way to ensure an unmterruptible source of
electricity would be for the City to form a municipal electric utility. That statement,
however, included many provisos and questions that cannot be answered prior to the
City initiating a formal engineering feasibility study regarding the formation of a
municipal utility. Though that promises to be a significant undertaking, the
subcommittee concluded that the benefits of such a study could outweigh the potential
costs As such, the subcommittee is recommending that the City Council authorize staff
to begin the process of obtaining an engineering feasibility study from a qualified firm.
It is anticipated that such a study could incur significant costs Staff is not able to
estimate those costs at this time In addition, the subcommittee seeks to ensure that
the RFP includes identifiable benchmarks and goals related to the City's ability to
provide uninterruptible power, should it proceed with the formation of a municipal utility
If the Council approves the subcommittee's request, staff will seek out similar RFPs
from other agencies and incorporate local needs and goals specific to El Segundo
Upon completion of the document, staff would bring the item back to the City Council for
formal approval

INTER - DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE

TO: City Council
FROM: Mike Gordon, Mayor
SUBJECT: El Segundo Babe Ruth Tournament Assistance
The El Segundo Babe Ruth League will be sponsoring a tournament on Stevenson
Field August 1 -8, 2001. The League officials, City staff, and I met recently to discuss
various facility issues to address prior to the tournament
One request that will have a significant financial impact is to cover the outfield fence
(631 linear feet) with six (6) foot high, green, closed mesh polypropylene
(windscreen) during the duration of the tournament The material costs, including
installation and removal, is $2050 After the tournament, this material could be used
to cover fence areas at other ball fields in town, to define the dug out area, and help
keep the players focused and free from distractions. It could also be used to
complete the covering of the Teen Center fence around the game court It is an
attractive material that looks good on fencing and wears well.
Staff is also investigating the use of a similar windscreen material in 9 foot high
sections that could be installed for the tournament, removed from the ball field fence
after the tournament and installed on the Recreation Park Tennis Court fences to
replace worn wind screening

Backaround and Discussion Continued
To address these deficiencies, it is proposed that certain areas of City Hall be
refurbished and remodeled The multi -year project is estimated to cost under $1.5
million dollars
In May of 1999, a City Hall Space Utilization Study was conducted to address some of
these same needs At that time it was proposed that several areas be upgraded, staff
relocated to other parts of City Hall, and staff with similar functions moved together
The report provided costs for two versions of improvements One was for $1 4 million
and the other was for $1 5 million Both versions had very similar overall features to the
one being proposed in this report This current proposal addresses specific upgrade
issues to assist in the daily City Hall operations
Since 1999, staff has been reviewing and updating the space needs $100,000 has
been budgeted the past two years to address some of these needs. Now that design
standards, including color selection, have been adopted, the plans can be finalized
Phase 1 will provide for better use of space that is currently being underutilized Phase
2 and 3 will continue with the overall plan of improving operating space
Phase 1
East Garden Area
This area, composed of four rooms including a bathroom, under the Public Works and
the Community Economic Development and Services Departments, is located at street
level with an entrance on Standard Street This area is currently used for storage of
records and equipment.
To better utilize this area, it is proposed that one room be converted into two offices for
Finance Department staff, one room be made into a meeting room which can also be
used as a training room, and one room become the Information Systems staff area for
two offices, ergonomically correct workstations, and computer /server room PC
equipment delivery services, using the existing loading zone, can use the entrance on
Standard Street, to easily make deliveries
The existing bathroom in this area would also be refurbished.
Once this section is completed, five staff members from the Accounting Division area
will be moved
CEDS. PW and Business License Area
The counters in this area will be modified to provide more space for the public. The
CEDS counter will incorporate a lowered counter /desktop meeting the American's with
Disability's Act requirements (ADA) to provide service to those individuals who need
wheelchair access The glass and aluminum entrance will be removed to provide better
access to the area The Public Works and Business License counter will be expanded
