CANDY CANE LANE
1206 E. ACACIA AVE. EL SEGUNDO, CA 90245
October 25, 2001
City of El Segundo
350 Main Street
El Segundo, CA 90245
Attn• City Manager Office,
Regarding the Candy Cane Lane Program for 2001.
This letter is to request your offices help with our Christmas Program on the 1200
block of East Acacia Ave
We would like to borrow two street barricade set -ups and 6 orange poles for our
program These items can be dropped off on the lawn at 1201 E Acacia anytime
around December 1 st Please let us know if we can return them or they can be
picked up at the same location after December 27th.
In the past the City has supplied us the snow (white batting material) for the end of
the block. Could we once again count on this for Friday, November 30th. Every year
we try hard to save the sheets but after 3 weeks of fog, rain, wind and children
playing on it, it gets beaten up pretty good
Santa has been arrivinggloriously on the city Fire Truck. Could this be arranged
again? We need Santa on Sat Dec. 8th at 7.00 PM.
Last year the Police Department was very instrumental at helping with crowd control
by use of the RSVP. I was wondering if we could use the Volunteer Police Team again
to show "El Segundo's finest' during the opening ceremony - One Hour 6:30 to 7.30
after that they are welcome to cruise the street and be a welcome presence, but the
biggest need is that first hour
Edison needs a letter from the City Managers Office requesting that the streetlights
are turned off from Dec. 3rd through Dec. 25. I think it really this makes a
difference I would love to handle this myself but Edison won't take my word for it
The neighbors of the 1200 Block of East Acacia would like to extend an invitation to
all the City Council members and City Employees to come down during Dec. 8th -
29rd with their fanubes and friends to enjoy the festivities.
Thank you for any cooperation, these few items really help in making the program a
success
Please call me so we can discuss these items
Sincerely,
Gale Segers

the impacts of allowing bed and breakfast hotels in the downtown area without
the 75 room limit, was included in the Environmental Assessment that was
completed for the Downtown Specific Plan Additionally, the Parking
Requirements section of the document lists parking requirements for bed and
breakfast hotels having more than 100 rooms On October 11, 2001, the

chapters contained within Title 6, Identifying the persons responsible for
administering the code, and reconciling Title 6 with other provisions of the ESMC,
the proposed ordinance adds two new provisions
• A new licensing requirement for animal breeders (Chapter 3A in the
proposed Ordinance), and
• Adds a requirement that dogs deemed found potentially dangerous be
micro- chipped at the owner's cost before being released from
impoundment (ESMC § 6- 4-6(D) )
This office believes that the proposed changes to the ESMC reflects the City's
current practices and applicable law
Please note that the proposed ordinance does not address a recent matter that
received public attention the ordinance does not prohibit or regulate dog
tethering The apparent objection to this practice is that tethering may endanger
the health of an animal because, depending on the length of a tether, the animal
may be unable to find water, food, or shelter
Pursuant to Penal Code § 597, a person who deprives animals of "necessary
sustenance, drink, or shelter' or "fads to provide (an] animal with proper food,
drink, or shelter or protection from the weather" may be prosecuted either for a
misdemeanor or felony The only Incident investigated by the Police Department
where a dog was tethered resulted in a dog owner being prosecuted under Penal
Code § 597. This office does not believe that the City is able to regulate activity
that is already addressed by the Penal Code and, accordingly, has not amended
the ESMC

AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Authorize staff to continue to purchase medical supplies from single source vendor, PMX
Medical Fiscal Impact Not to exceed $25,000
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION-
Authorize issuance of a blanket purchase order to PMX Medical for FY 2001 -2002 for medical
supplies
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The El Segundo Fire Department has been purchasing and storing medical supplies since
1998, as mandated by the County of Los Angeles, Department of Health Services. Since
1998, the Fire Department has been utilizing an opportunity to "piggyback' their ordering of
supplies from PMX Medical with the City of Santa Clara to take advantage of pricing and
terms. PMX Medical has been consistently delivering high quality medical supplies within five
days after orders are placed. In addition to favorable pricing and timely deliveries, PMX also
offers a 3% discount for invoices paid within 30 days. Therefore, the Fire Department is
recommending that we continue to purchase our medical supplies from PMX Medical for the
2001 -2002 fiscal year.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (Contd.),
effective way
At the September 4, 2001 City Council meeting, one of the actions taken by City
Council was approval of staffs recommendation of a combination in
house /contracted risk management by reclassifying an existing employee to Risk
Manager /Purchasing Agent and supplementing the in -house staff with risk
management professional services Staff issued a request for proposal on
September 12, 2001 and received only one bid in response from Ron Rakich &
Associates Staff has since met with this firm and negotiated an agreement,
which is on target with budget
Ron Rakich and Associates will perform risk management services for
approximately one year to supplement and train the in -house Risk
Manager /Purchasing Agent as outlined in the scope of services attached

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The Work
SCOPE OF WORK
The City has defined the scope of work it expects from the engagement We have analyzed the City's
Request for Proposal, which outlines the following specified services (rephrased)
1 Risk management training for staff
2 Assistance in developing a risk management policies and procedures manual
3 Development of pohcies /procedures for insurance analysis and administration
4 Analysis of workers' compensation administration, with recommendations
5 Analysis of liability program administration, with recommendations
6 Development of internal claims handling systems
7 Assistance in development of a team approach to workers' compensation case management
8 Assistance in developing reporting systems for claims and progress toward goals
9 Assistance in developing an internal risk management communications system
10 Facilitation of an interactive process between risk management and safety functions
We are prepared to assist the City in reaching its goals through the following work plan
Li L@J:7.11 ]U
We concur with the City's approach of using the consultant to help centralize the risk management
function and phasing out the use of professional services after a one -year period We envision intense
interaction toward the beginning of the engagement, with two of our key consultants (Ron Rakich and
George Kingston) meeting weekly with the appropriate City personnel Other speciahts in safety, loss
control and other specialties are available as needed
Once Imes of communications have been developed and strengthened and once common objectives are
agreed upon, we will gradually reduce the on -site consulting time Depending on the City's needs and
desires, while increasing the use of other communication systems including telephone, e -mail and various
forms of electronic conferencing
10
073
Our initial meeting with City management wtll be a diagnostic session to identify and clarify management
concerns and desired outcomes We would attempt to determine the usefulness of currently available
resources (eg, ICRMA grant) to contain costs for the project We also would attempt to uncover and
resolve any fundamental communication barriers in this session This session would help assure that the
engagement delivers what the City actually needs and that all involved parties (management, staff, TPA,
consultants, others) understand the scope and commit to the same desired results
At or near the same tune, we will review prior risk management and claim administration studies to
determine the findings, conclusions, and recommendations, if any, resulting from the study(ies) In our
interviews with City personnel we will determine the extent to which recommendations, if any are included
in these studies, have been implemented and which have been rejected or postponed
We will assist the City staff in the development of procedure manuals, written policies, forms, etc, to the
extent required We will produce the final documents in print -ready form However, we believe that
policies and procedures are more effective when the individuals responsible for their execution play a
major part in their development This applies to risk management manuals, claim manuals, safety manuals,
emergency* management and recovery plans and any other documents intended to guide organizational
activity Therefore, we will encourage and guide City staff participation in the development and writing of
such manuals and procedure documents
Pats of this engagement will involve trai ung for staff involved in specific activities such as claim review,
contract review (for risk transfer issues), accident investigation, claim repotting and many other activities
We will develop presentations for any such areas as needed and directed by the City Presentations will
include samples, handouts, exercises, shdeshows or any other media most appropriate to get the job done
We are experienced trainers and speakers and welcome the opportunity to organize effective presentations
for City staff
We are also experienced meeting facilitators and will apply these skills in meetings to assure that
appropriate City staff members, rather than consultants, exercise control over the various areas of risk
management This approach will be relevant for the workers' compensation "team" specified in the RFP,
and also for other ad hoc groups that may be necessary (e g, a team to develop an emergency management
or business recovery plan)
WORK SCHEDULE
The RFP states that the Administrative Services Director will assign risk management duties to the
consultant Based on our understanding of the situation we anticipate a need for an average of
approximately 10 hours of consulting time per week for the year However, this average will not be
consistent over the time period Start-up will require additional hours at the beginning of the engagement
and the participation of both consultants concurrently As the transference process takes place in which
City staff assumes expanding risk management roles, the consultants' participation will decrease in terms of
time -on -site
We are willing to comnut to a mi nmum of 433 consulting hours for this engagement Time will be
allocated between the principal consultants based on the City's needs and particular expertise of the
individual consultant. Initially, both Ron Rakich and George Kingston will pamcipate in meetings to learn
the City's workings, meet the principal staff and refine the scope of the project Based on a work plan
developed with the Admtmstratrve Services Director, we will then schedule consultant time by expertise
area, e.g, Ron Rakich for risk transfer, general risk management and risk financing and George Kingston
for claim management, TPA selection and oversight, litigation management and claim information
systems

COST OF SERVICES
Arrangements for our Service
As is the case with most management consultants, we are compensated in a variety of ways
depending on which approach best serves the client's interests Compensauon methods include
hourly rates, not -to- exceed budgets, fixed price agreements, retainers or any combination thereof
Generally, we are not compensated on a contingency basis, as we believe that in many instances this
method creates conflicts of interest and reduces objectivity
Our fee for this assignment will not exceed $65,000 for the year beginning from the date of
engagement We cover our own business expenses However, printing and delivery of documents
(other than letters and one copy of reports) and other services required beyond our usual office
expenses are the responsibility of the client We will work with the City to provide the most efficient
service by using City facilities and staff to the maximum extent possible, which will also enhance the
learning experience for City staff
If the City desires to use a monthly retainer we would suggest a stair - stepped arrangement through
which estimated time commitments determine monthly payment For example, based on the
estimated time expenditure depicted in Figure 1, the monthly retainer could be set up so that 45% of
the project fee is paid in equal installments during the first three months, 30% in the next three
months 20% in the next three months and the remainder during the last three months We would
keep track of and report hours expended on a monthly basis under this arrangement
An alternative is to bill for actual time expended on a monthly basis We would do this using a
composite hourly rate of $150, regardless of which consultant's time is required

ATTACHMENT November 7, 2001
The El Segundo Public Safety Communications Center currently has an authorized
staffing level of four Senior Dispatchers, two of which currently remain unfilled The
Administrative Services Department — Human Resources Division has had an ongoing
open recruitment for the positions since January 2001 During that time, the Human
Resources Division has received only four applications for the positions
Police Department management believes the lack of interest in the available positions is
three -fold First, the current fob classification of Senior Dispatcher may be confusing to
potential fob applicants Many agencies surveyed have a similarly titled fob
classification However, their fob duties differ from the El Segundo Public Safety
Communications Center fob classification The other agencies fob duties are similar to
those of the El Segundo Public Safety Communications Center journey level Dispatcher
II, 1 e , receive emergency and non - emergency calls for service, dispatch appropriate
agencies, monitor radio frequencies, etc These fob duties do not include any
supervisory functions However, the El Segundo Public Safety Communications
Center's Senior Dispatchers are assigned the responsibility of both a dispatcher and a
supervisor, i e , oversee call center shift operations, monitor work and evaluate
employees, responsible for call canter scheduling, liaison with vendors, complete
administrative tasks, etc The job duties performed by the El Segundo Public Safety
Communications Center's Senior Dispatchers are more closely aligned with the job
classification of Dispatch Supervisor positions at other surveyed agencies
Second, one of the current fob qualifications may also be confusing to applicants One
of the required fob qualifications "two years experiences as a public safety dispatcher
including experience coordinating the work of others " It is staff's belief that this
requirement may be ambiguous and lead potential candidates to believe that prior
supervisory experience is absolutely required in order to apply for the position
Third, a recent survey of surrounding dispatch centers found that the El Segundo Public
Safety Communications Center Senior Dispatchers are in some cases paid less than
surrounding cities (in the case of our nearest neighboring dispatch center by 19 55 %)
Recommendation
First, change the fob title of Senior Dispatcher to Supervising Dispatcher Second,
modify the current fob qualification of "two years experience as a public safety
dispatcher including experience coordinating the work of others" to "two years
experience as a public safety dispatcher, experience coordinating the work of others is
preferred " Third, increase the salary of the Supervising Dispatcher job classification by
15%
Funding for the additional compensation will be obtained from salary savings created by
dispatcher vacancies for the remainder of fiscal year 2001/02 The necessary amount
would then be budgeted for future years
Should Council approve the recommended changes, the Human Resources Division will
immediately initiate a new recruitment, testing and selection process designed to fill the
two vacant positions

SECTION 1 The city council finds and declares as follows
A The ability to contribute time and money to local political campaigns is a
legitimate and important means of participating in the political process
B Large monetary contributions, however, may give at least the appearance that
candidates for elective office may be unduly influenced through financial means
C It is in the public interest that the City have a means by which all persons within
the community have a fair and equitable opportunity to participate in local
government whether by elected office or through other means
D To assist with the goal of providing an even playing field to all candidates seeking
elective office, and to engender public trust in the political process, the City
Council enacted regulations for campaign contributions Specifically, the City
Council enacted Ordinance No. 1146, adopted January 16, 1990, and Ordinance
No 1278, adopted October 21, 1997, which added Chapter 9 to Title 1 of the El
Segundo Municipal Code ( "ESMC ") entitled Campaign Contributions and
consisting of §§ 1 -9 -1 to 1 -9 -7
E In general, Chapter 9 required candidates to disclose the source of campaign
contributions when the amounts of such contributions exceeded a voluntary cap
F In 1996 and 2000, the California electorate approved two propositions that
implemented regulations for campaign contributions on a statewide basis
Proposition 208, enacted in 1996, was challenged and has been partially
invalidated, Proposition 34, enacted in 2000, was designed, in part, to cure the
deficiencies in Proposition 208 and became effective in January 2001

incorporates those findings by reference into this Ordinance

corruption in local elections, and gather evidence to facilitate enforcement of
local election regulations Accordingly, it is in the public interest to adopt
regulations imposing strict disclosure requirements upon, among other things,
unsolicited campaign literature that is distributed during the course of local
political campaigns

electorate and prevent political corruption Nothing contained in this Chapter 9 is
intended, nor should it be construed, to supplant the Political Reform Act's requirements,

(BACKGROUND
A GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
El Segundo has a population of 16, 864, with its daytime and early evening population increasing to
approximately 90,000 due to its large influx of commercial/industrial businesses The city, consisting of 5
square miles, is one of 88 cities located within Los Angeles County El Segundo is situated at its northern
base by the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and the City of Los Angeles, the Pacific Ocean to the
west, the City of Manhattan Beach (south), the Los Angeles County communities of Del Aire and Holly
Glen, and the City of Hawthorne to the east
B STREET AND HIGHWAYS
The roadway system in El Segundo has over 50 miles of paved roadways 4 freeways running east/west and
north/south traverse the city There are several main boulevards and arterial roads, conforming to a basic grid
plan that connects with roadways of similar nature in those cities and areas bordering El Segundo The
remaining roadways are made up of collector and residential streets
C OPERATING DEPARTMENTS
The Fire Department consists of 65 full -time personal total, including non -sworn personnel There are five!
Divisions Administration, Emergency Services, Environmental Safety, Prevention, and Suppression The
Emergency Services Division is comprised of one full -time staff position, the Emergency Services
Coordinator (ESC) The ESC has responsibility for managing the city's emergency preparedness programs,
maintaining the emergency response planning and procedures, and EOC readiness
D EXISTING SYSTEMS
Public notification is managed primarily through the Community Alert Network or "CAN" system - a phone
based alert network that contacts residents and businesses via telephone in pre - designated grids The other
existing system for alerting motorists are through traffic reports provided commercially owned radio AM and
FM radio stations
IPROBLEM STATEMENT
El Segundo has no current means to provide timely (immediate) notification of hazardous conditions and road)
closures to the thousands of motorists driving throughout El Segundo on a daily basis
El Segundo is unique in its geography — 2/3 of its land mass is zoned for commercial and industrial businesses
that encompass a daily population of over 80,000 people There are significant commercial and industrial
hazards — a major oil refinery, a chemical manufacturing facility, the Hyperion Sanitation Facility (one of the
largest facilities of its kind in the United States), Scattergood Power Plant, and the 41h largest airport in the
United States (Los Angeles International Airport - LAX) Sepulveda Blvd (State Highway 1) runs right
through the heart of El Segundo as a north -south corridor It carries millions of motorists each year between the
Los Angeles International Airport and the South Bay cities It is the primary artery for the South Bay and'
primary access to LAX The Office of Traffic Safety is requested to fund the installation of a low power radio

system that will rapidly notify the driving public of any potential road and /or hazardous conditions The low
power radio system can adequately provide routine public information, road conditions, and emergency notices
specific to the City of El Segundo
In 1999 and 2000, over 11 major incidents occurred where the low power radio system could have been put to
essential use to immediately warn and alert the motoring public In 2001, the State's Energy Crisis, prompted
widespread power blackouts on major intersections on 5 separate occasions between January and July 2001 —
creating gridlock of major travel routes, and widespread confusion of motorists for several hours, and
compounded the need for a programmable radio system to alert the public of rapidly changing driving
conditions
The City of El Segundo's " per - thousand - daily- vehicle - miles -of- travel" ranking for total fatal collisions is 75 of
99 in its population category This means 24 cities of similar size had lower total fatal and injury collision rates
The City of El Segundo "per 1,000 population" ranking for speed related collisions is 20 of 99 cities in its
population category. This means 79 cities of similar size had lower speed related collision rates
The City of El Segundo "per 1,000 population" ranking of collision with pedestrians over 65 years is 4 of 99
cities in its population category This means 95 cities of similar size had lower rates for collisions involving
pedestrians over 65 years of age
• 1 of 99 identifies the city with the highest collision rate
• 99 of 99 identifies the city with the highest collision rate
• El Segundo's 1999 average population was 16,725
• 99 cities in California have populations between (1 and 24,999)

The low power radio system will attempt to increase awareness by providing continuous pre- recorded safety
messages to motorists by alerting them of hazardous conditions, road construction, and providing reminders to
drive safely, comply with collision regulations to reduce hit & run incidents, drive within posted and basic
speed laws, "right -of -way" messages to increase awareness and be alert for pedestrians, bicyclists, and
skateboarders In the City of El Segundo, the following collision types occurred in 2000
Total Fatal & Injury Collisions — 77 Total
• Fatal Collisions (pedestrian) — 2
• Alcohol Related Collisions — 14 (4 injuries)
• Speed Related Collisions w /injury — 20
• Pedestrian Related Collisions — 8 (non - injury)
• Hit & Run Related Collisions — 61 (9 injuries)
ATTEMPTS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM
The following is a summary of the various efforts that have been made by the Police and Fire Departments to
deal with the problem
1 The Police Department has three motor officers assigned to traffic enforcement and conducts random
DUI checkpoints
2 The Fire Department has participated in programs with the community to increase awareness of the
hazards in our area, use of the "CAN" system, and has partnered with local entities in the Community
Awareness and Emergency Response (CAER) program to educate the community
3 The Police and Fire Departments have developed a comprehensive plan to respond to blackout situations
and provide relief to grid locked intersections when signaling devices fail under blackout conditions

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE, November 7, 2001
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: New Business
AGENDA DESCRIPTION- Request for City Council approval to enter Into a lease
agreement with AT &T Wireless to construct and operate a cellular digital packet
data (CDPD) enabled wireless communications facility atop the police
department's communications center
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: It is recommended that Council approve
entering into a lease agreement with AT &T Wireless to construct and operate
CDPD enabled wireless communications facility atop the police department's
communications center
This project was previously reviewed for CEQA compliance and a mitigated
declaration was adopted when all preapproved cell sites were accepted (EA No
403)
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: On February 16, 1999, Council approved the
purchase and implementation of a mobile digital computer (MDC) system for the
Communications Center project The El Segundo Public Safety Communications
Center came on -line in August 2000 Thereafter, patrol officers began to identify
reception problems with CDPD wireless communications in the western area of
the City

The lease would be for an initial term of five -years and AT &T would have the
option to three additional five -year terms Although it is common for a wireless
carrier to pay approximately $1,000 a month rent to locate their facilities on
publicly owned property, staff is proposing AT &T not pay any rent Rather, AT &T
would be required to relocate the equipment to other suitable property provided
by the City once during the term of the agreement AT &T estimates the cost of
such relocation at approximately $500,000 Given the length of the lease and the
potential of needing AT &T to relocate its equipment, staff believes that the City is
in the long term in a better financial position by giving up rent in exchange for
AT &T being obligated to relocate the facility
As is detailed in the attached memo from the Chief of Police to the City Manager,
entering into the proposed lease agreement should enhance mobile data
communications for the police department, and also serve a much greater
purpose of improving wireless voice communications for the community

Inter - Departmental Correspondence
October 29, 2001
To: Mary Strenn, City Manager
From: Jack Wayt, Chief of Police
Subject: Proposed AT &T Wireless Communication Voice /Data Cell Site
PROBLEM
Since opening the El Segundo Public Safety Communications Center in August
2000, police department vehicle mounted Mobile Data Computers (MDCs) have
been unable to dependably receive and transmit data on the west side of the city
This situation is due to the lack of wireless data coverage capability in that area
This lack of reliability causes field officers and dispatch personnel to underutilize
their MDCs This in turn places an undue burden on dispatchers, forcing them to
handle data requests over the air Use of radio airtime for noncritical traffic can
congest and limit the amount of airtime available in the event of an emergency
BACKGROUND
Prior to opening the El Segundo Public Safety Communications Center, police
and fire dispatch services were provided by the South Bay Regional Public
Communications Authority ( SBRPCA) SBRPCA provided the police department
with vehicle mounted Mobile Data Terminals (MDTs) that had the ability to
transmit and receive data only to perform various functions. The MDTs allowed
field officers access to several law enforcement databases, allowed for
computer -aided dispatch, and messaging with dispatch and fellow officers. A
private wireless network utilizing radio frequencies supported the transference of
data for these MDTs The coverage for the use of these terminals was limited to
the size of SBRPCAs private wireless network The city's topography and
environmental factors occasionally affected the reception and transmission of
data
On July 16, 1996, the City Council approved the purchase of a new Records
Management System (RMS) provided by the West Covina Service Group
(WCSG) One of the many determinant factors for selecting this product was the
integration ability with the Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Mobile Data
Computer (MDC) software systems provided by the same group On February 3,
1998, City Council approved staff recommendation to proceed with the multi-
169
phased development of a stand -alone Public Safety Communications Center On
February 16, 1999, Council approved the purchase and implementation of the
MDC system for the Communications Center project Staff identified the MDC
system provided by the WCSG as the equipment best suited to fulfill the needs of
the police department The WCSG mobile data system was designed to operate
as one element of their fully integrated CAD /RMS /MDC combination that was
selected for use in the communications center. Further, a commercial wireless
service provider (AT &T) for Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) technology was
identified for coverage of the police department's mobile data needs
Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) wireless technology is an overlay on existing
cellular voice networks for the transmission of small bursts of data known as
packets at a rate of 19 2 kilobits per second CDPD is currently the fastest
available data transmission technology and the most secure based on a built in
encryption algorithm
Law enforcement agencies have found that using mobile digital computers to
obtain critical information in patrol cars without having to go through radio
dispatchers improves the officers' efficiency, decreases the information delivery
time, and reduces errors Using CDPD to bypass a dispatcher, field officers may
rapidly obtain information directly from local, state and national governmental
databases to check past local contacts, driver's license validity, existing warrants,
and other relevant information that may be of use to an officer in processing a
suspect Additionally, CDPD can act as a backup communications network if the
primary police department radio communications network goes down.
The use of CDPD minimizes the capital outlay of the city, since it is only
necessary to purchase in- vehicle equipment (e g , laptop computers with
modems and software) Rather than the city purchasing an entire
communications network for data transmission, a cellular service provider
provides the network Therefore, the city is not responsible for obtaining radio
frequencies, build -out costs, or network maintenance costs Additionally, AT &T
offers CDPD service on a fixed - priced per vehicle monthly access fee.
The El Segundo Public Safety Public Communications Center came on -line in
August 2000 Thereafter, patrol officers began to identify reception problems with
CDPD wireless communications in the western area of the city, most notably
west of Lomita Street (It should be noted that the lack of a wireless site on the
west side of the city also affects AT &T cellular phone users, since they are
unable to receive a signal allowing them to call out from the area ) These
problem areas were verified by driving to various locations throughout the city
and plotting the signal strength of CDPD coverage by utilizing the MDCs
"Watcher" program Armed with this data, department staff contacted AT &T
engineers for suggestions to resolve the data communication problem AT &T
engineers reviewed the signal strength data, went on a ride -a -long throughout
our community and examined the installation of police fleet's modems /antennas
170
AT &T acknowledged the identified reception problem and made the following
initial recommendations to improve CDPD reception•
• Purchase and install higher gain antennas for each unit
• Loop excess antenna wire loosely in the trunk in the shape of a figure
eight
• Have AT &T technicians ensure that their cell sites providing data
coverage for the city were operating at peak performance
• Research the probability of adding an additional cell site with data
capabilities to service the west side of the city
Since receiving these recommendations, we have purchased higher gain
antennas, addressed the wiring issue, and AT &T has ensured that their sites are
operating properly and are adjusted for peak performance These combined
changes improved our wireless coverage and reliability considerably in many
areas of town, however, did not resolve the poor coverage west of Lomita Street
In early 2001, police department staff contacted AT &T to discuss the feasibility of
erecting a cell site on the west side of the city to improve wireless data coverage
During the course of discussion, it was determined that AT &T was attempting to
locate a site on the west side of the city for wireless voice coverage only to be
included in their 2002 budget Additionally, police department staff learned that
the police department budding had been pre- approved by the city Planning
Department as a wireless communications facilities site It was proposed that
AT &T consider erecting a wireless communications facility atop the police
department's communications center in their 2001 budget with the assurance
that it be CDPD enabled Informational negotiations for such a site have been
ongoing with AT &T since that time
AT &T's proposed wireless communications facility would consist of the following
the lease of approximately 338 sq ft of rooftop space of the police department's
communications facility to include an 11' x 7' equipment cabinet, a 200 amp
electrical service, and 4' panel antennas, mounted in three sectors, with four
panels per sector, for a total of 12 panel antennas
AT &T initially proposed a rent payment of $1000 per month to the city However,
staff expressed a concern regarding the possibility of having to relocate the
proposed communications facility in the future. AT &T estimated the cost of such
relocation at $500,000 Thereafter, staff proposed waiving the rent payment upon
AT &T's agreement to accept the cost of relocating the proposed communications
facility once during the term of the agreement Any additional relocations would
be at the city's expense.
AT &T has conducted a number of surveys to determine compatibility of a CDPD
enabled wireless communications facility at the police department
171
• Survey of existing CDPD enabled wireless communication sites providing
coverage to El Segundo
• Model coverage survey of the proposed CDPD enabled wireless
communications site overlaid on the CDPD enabled sites currently in
existence providing coverage to El Segundo
• Shared site interference survey and addendum
• Architectural and structural plans for the proposed project
• Structural engineering calculations survey
• Photo simulations representing various views of the proposed site
Bruce Cobb, a systems engineer, for Advanced Electronics of Gardena, Calif
has reviewed the existing and proposed CDPD surveys (Advanced Electronics
have been the police department's two -way radio service provider for many
years ) It is Mr Cobb's opinion that MDC coverage will expand beyond the areas
shown This is based on the fact that such studies are conducted to determine
cellular phone coverage Cellular phones operate at low power (approximately
1 5 watts) versus the police department MDCs that operate at approximately 5
watts, This power increase and superior antenna efficiency allow the MDCs to
receive signal strength at greater distances than a lower power device However,
topography and environmental factors can still affect the coverage area, i e , it is
unlikely that MDC coverage will be received along Vista Del Mar or Imperial
Highway north of Sheldon Street due to hill ridgelines
Mr Cobb also reviewed the shared site interference survey It is his opinion that
there is nothing to suggest any radio interference between existing police
department frequencies and the proposed wireless communications facility
The City Attorney has reviewed the proposed lease agreement for form
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Council approve entering into a lease agreement with
AT &T to construct and operate a CDPD enabled wireless communications facility
atop the police department's communications center

Lt Max Phipps
El Segundo Police Dept
Dear Lt Phipps
Pursuant to your request for our analysis of the proposed cellular site installation by AT &T wireless at
your Police facility, Advanced Electronics' technical and engineering staff has reviewed AT &T's
coverage, projections, your own existing coverage measurements, and Galaxy Engineering's Shared
Site Interference Analysis (original and corrected versions) Our evaluation of these documents leads
us to the following conclusions
• Installation of a data capable cell site at the Police facility will result in significant improvement
of mobile data operations in the central and west - central portions of the cdy Data operations in
the extreme west (beach areas) are unlikely to be significantly impacted, however some
improvement may occur, especially in the area near Vista Del Mar and Grand
• Additional voice paths provided by this installation will also serve the city by allowing greater
access to the cellular network by citizens and law enforcement personnel on a daily basis and
provide a greater chance of successful cellular connection to the 911 operators during
emergency need
• No interference between the cellular system and El Segundo's public safety dispatch system is
anticipated
• System coverage supplied by the new site will not enhance cellular voice or data operations
significantly north of Imperial Highway, therefore no improvement should be anticipated within
the operational or passenger terminal areas of LAX
The first three items listed above speak strongly in favor of this proposal from a purely technical
operations viewpoint As your service provider for two-way dispatch operations, we find no basis for
concern of degradation in service as a result of the proposed installation and see this as a positive
action with noticeable benefits to both public and officer safety
Sincerely,
Bruce Cobb
Systems Engineer

AGENDA DESCRIPTION
Recommendation from the Revenue Committee of the City Council to evaluate
methods of providing financial assistance to local hotels
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Direct staff to evaluate alternative methods of providing financial assistance to
local hotels and return to the City Council with a recommendation
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION
On October 24, 2001 the Revenue Committee invited representatives from all of
the local hotels to discuss financial losses as a result of the terrorists acts on
September 11th Nearly every hotel has experienced declines in revenue
generally ranging from 15% to 40% in the weeks that followed the disaster
Although occupancy rates have recently shown an Increase for all of the hotels,
revenues continue to be well below levels typical for this time of year In
addition, weekend business activity has continued to be substantially lower and
has shown no signs of recovery as of this point
The Revenue Committee evaluated the situation and has recommended the City
Council consider financial assistance to the hotels The majority of the hotel
representatives would prefer having the Transient Occupancy Tax lowered or
suspended for a specific time period The Revenue Committee recommends the
staff be directed to evaluate alternative methods of offering TOT relief and return
to the City Council with recommendation as soon as possible
