AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING- Unfinished Business
AGENDA DESCRIPTION.
Consideration and possible action to approve agreements with Cassidy & Associates, The
MWW Group and Urban Dimensions for work related to the City's efforts regarding Los
Angeles International Airport (LAX) (Fiscal Impact $651,200)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
1) Authorize the Mayor to execute extensions to the consultant agreements with Cassidy &
Associates, The MWW Group and Urban Dimensions effective October 1, 2002 through
September 30, 2003, 2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
Over the past year, MWW Group, Urban Dimensions and Cassidy & Associates articulated
the City's position regarding LAX and the broad array of airport related issues on several
fronts Most notably, the consultants achieved the following pressed amendments to S
633 that were acceptable to the City, allowed the City to work its way into the forefront of
the debate regarding Alternative D of the LAX expansion plan, argued successfully before
the California Legislature the importance of creating a truly regional airport plan in
(Please see attached page marked "Background and Discussion ")

Background and Discussion (con't):
Southern California, reenergized the regional airport coalition of local governments, while
obtaining support forAB 2333 (Nakano), and obtained substantial amount of supportive press
coverage of the City of El Segundo's views regarding airport development
During the coming year, LAWA and Mayor Hahn will release the details and formal EIR/EIS
documents related to Alternative D It is expected that The MWW Group and Urban
Dimensions will be working to guarantee that El Segundo's concerns are well represented to
LAWA, the Board of Airport Commissioners, and Mayor Hahn Specifically, the City will be
working to ensure that Mayor Hahn's commitment to limit airport growth to 78 MAP is met, that
the southern runway is not relocated farther south, and that any proposed taxiway and terminal
improvements will not enhance the airport infrastructure in a manner that would allow the
capacity of LAX to exceed 78 MAP
Cassidy & Associates proposed work plan will focus on ensuring that current sentiment in
Washington, D C to increase the ability of the federal government to dictate expansion of large
airports does not result in legislation that would allow pro - expansion forces at LAX to bypass
the current developing consensus regarding development of the airport Last year, for
example, Cassidy played a large role in amending or defeating bills that would have
undermined the City's position regarding LAX In addition, the Council should note that
Cassidy & Associates will be working on other issues for the City, such as obtaining federal
funding for the implementation of the sewer master plan, obtaining additional funding related to
the Douglas Street project and funding for other transportation projects through the Intermodal
Surface Transportation Act of 2003
The following is brief breakdown of the services proposed by the consultants
The MWW Group
➢ Continue to develop the City's current relationship with the Los Angeles Mayor's Office,
the Los Angeles City Council and LAWA,
➢ Manage the City's relationship with organized labor and Trade Unions in the region,
➢ Continue media relations campaign,
➢ Work to establish a dialogue and base of support among Los Angeles civic and
business Leaders
Proposed Cost — $16,667/mo
Cassidy & Associates
➢ Finalize lobbying work with respect to the Douglas Street Gap Closure,
➢ Represent the City's position with respect to federal legislation related to local airport
development,
➢ Continue to seek funding for the sewer master plan project,
➢ Seek funding for transportation protects through the Intermodal Surface Transportation
Act of 2003,
➢ Determine and report regularly on airline industry strategy in Washington, D C
Proposed Cost — $15,000 /mo
0 1 G
Urban Dimensions
➢ Continue educating and updating Regional Airport Coalition about the City of Los
Angeles' proposed amendments to the LAX Master Plan;
➢ Monitor developments in Mayor Hahn's plan for LAX;
➢ Monitor developments on state and federal level that affect LAX planning,
➢ Monitor progress and develop proposals for action regarding the Southern California
Regional Airport Authority,
➢ Ongoing press and media outreach to maintain interest in LAX issue and El Segundo's
efforts,
➢ Continue consultation with Shute, Mihaly & Weinberger on key LAX issues as needed
Proposed Cost — $22,600/mo
It should be noted that staff recommends utilizing two separate line items to fund the work
performed by Cassidy Associates. Because a significant portion of the work that would be
performed by Cassidy & Associates relates to obtaining federal funding for transportation and
infrastructure projects, staff recommends using budget line item account numbers 001 -400-
2901 -6406 and 001 - 400 - 2901 -6407 for that work

Re: Federal Work Plan
We welcome the opportunity to continue to advance the City's important
objectives as we pursue a number of federal initiatives. As the City's
Washington staff, we are confident that we can continue to add real value to
your efforts on several fronts. In anticipating the twelve months ahead, we
understand that there are three specific objectives you wish us to pursue.
These include the following:
1. BLOCK AIRPORT EXPANSION LEGISLATION:
We have been successful in efforts to slow measures that would do
great harm to local control. We have pressed amendments to S 633
and helped the city articulate the position that a local consensus
should never be overridden by a federal authority intent upon airport
expansion We have drafted amendments, proposed Senate committee
report language, initiated California Congressional delegation letters
advancing our position and helped secure the support of key senators
and staff. We will continue and expand these efforts in the months
ahead, keeping City officials informed of our ongoing efforts

CASSIDY WEERSHANDWICK
&ASSOCIATES
2. SECURE SMOKY HOLLOW SEWER FUNDING:
We have successfully advanced the City's request for a federal
partnership in meeting this unfunded mandate. While final results
are not in yet, this has become a top delegation priority in the
pending EPA appropriations funding measure, and we have
worked with legislators to advance this project and secure
necessary supporting documentation and letters of support. We
will continue to press the case for several million dollars in federal
support and will work with the City to secure timely grant release
of Fiscal Year 2003 funding. We will also press a follow -on Fiscal
Year 2004 request as necessary and appropriate.
3. SECURING ADDITIONAL TRANSPORTATION FUNDING:
Your Washington staff recently launched a new initiative to
identify, prepare and pursue new federal funding for City
transportation improvements. Calendar year 2003 will see the
largest infrastructure bill in years move through Congress. The
Intermodal Surface Transportation Act of 2003 will steer tens of
billions of dollars to local authorities for transportation
improvements. These projects will range from bike paths to bus
stops, from highway bypasses to local surface transportation
improvements. Working with a uniquely well - placed California
Congressional delegation, we will assist City officials in designing
and implementing a plan to secure federal funding through this
enormous, generously funded transportation measure.

Re: Contract Renewal
Dear Jeff
The MWW Group appreciates the opportunity to renew our relationship and contract with the
City of El Segundo to contmue to provide public relations and advocacy services for the City with
regard to the future of Los Angeles International Airport
As you are aware, our primary goal over the last year was to manage El Segundo's relationship
with the City of Los Angeles as alternatives for the expansion of LAX were bemg considered We
believe that we have successfully accomplished this goal as evidenced by El Segundo's "seat the
table" as LAX's Alternative D was prepared and by the pledge Los Angeles Mayor Jim Hahn has
made to revise Alternative D if it does not in fact limit growth at LAX to 78 mullion annual
passengers a year
With this said, there is still a great deal of work to be done Over the course of the next several
months, formal environmental review documentation will be released by LAWA and the public
comment period on Alternative D will begin Ahead of this, El Segundo will conduct its own
independent review of Alternative D We will continue to manage El Segundo's rclationstups
with the City of Los Angeles as the environmental review and public comment process heats -up
and the plan eventually reaches the Los Angeles City Council for its consideration Additionally,
we will work to continue a dialogue amongst key LA civic leaders on Alternative D as well as the
need for a regional aviation solution beyond just LAX Finally, we will also continue to work
with media outlets to ensure that El Segundo's position on Alternative D remains clear and at the
Forefront of the debate on Alternative D
I look forward to being at the October 1, 2002 City Council meeting to answer any questions the
Council may have Thank you

Los Angeles City Council and the LAWA Board of Airport Commissioners,
2) Manage El Segundo's relationship with organized labor, focusing on those
unions that currently do not support a regional solution to airport capacity in
Southern California;
3) Establish a media relations campaign, primarily focused on media outlets that
key Los Angeles elected officials and civic leaders read,
4) Establish a dialogue and base of support amongst LA civic and business
leaders for a regional solution instead of the Riordan LAX Master Plan
Immediate Tasks (four to six months)
1) Hold informal conversations with LA Mayor Jim Hahn's staff and LAWA staff
on Mayor Hahn's new safety and security measures/option five.
2) Establish liaison with senior LA Times reporter on LAX/city hall issues,
3) Hold informal meeting with LAWA Commission President as precursor to
formal meeting with Commission President and Mayor Gordon with the goal
of establishing the format for ongoing discussions /negotiations on the future
of LAX;

key influencers;
5) Hold meetings with key elected officials on city, county, state and federal level
that are key influencers on LA city policy;
6) Hold formal discussions/negotiations with Mayor Hahn and his senior staff on
status of Riordan LAX Master Plan, "option five," as well as safety and
security measures that facilitate growth of LAX;

coordinating national environmental group opposition, Valley leadership
opposition and input from Independent Cities Association, Contract Cities
Association,
and other groups;

and explore possible editorial boards on the issue, depending on outcomes
under item seven above.
9) Hold informal discussions as a precursor for formal meetings with key
members of the building trades;
10) Hold informal discussions as a precursor for formal meetings with all 15
members of the Los Angeles City Council (in collaboration with Urban
Dimensions) as well as the City Attorney and City Controller;
11) Develop outreach opportunities to key Los Angeles civic /business groups and
leaders, on an individual basis, for Mayor Gordon to address El Segundo's
vision for a regional airport system that responds to true safety and security
needs at LAX; and
12) Hold bi- weekly conference calls with City Officials and Consultants to ensure
maximum coordination of activities
Mid term and long term tasks (six months /ongoing)
1) Continue formal discussions with Mayor Hahn's office as well as LAWA
Commission president,
2) Create rapid response communication avenues with LA City Councilmembers as
master plan issues are discussed and move along City approval process;
3) Engage LA City Planning Commissioners (when appointed), LAWA
Commissioners and other key LA City commissioners as plans work their way
through the LA City approval process;

constituencies as the master plan moves toward City Council approval;
5) Continue to engage LA civic/business groups and leaders on regional airport
issues through Mayor Gordon sharing the vision for how LA and the region can
work together,
6) Continue to work with LA based media outlets, in collaboration with Urban
Dimensions, on promoting the regional airport agenda;

04 J
211146. ..
7) Utilize MWW's resources on a regional basis in promotion of the growth of
airports other than LAX as well as the Company's contacts with the Air Transport
Association and major airlines in communicating the importance of a regional
approach; and
8) Hold bi- weekly conference calls with City Officials and Consultants to ensure
maximum coordination of activities.
The City of El Segundo has done an outstanding job developing a Regional Airport Plan
for Southern California —a plan that has resulted in the Riordan LAX Master Plan being
shelved That good work could be jeopardized in the name of "safety and security" as
the future of LAX is impacted by the events of September 11 `". Now, more than ever, as
the next chapter —the pivotal chapter —in the future of LAX is being written, the City of
El Segundo needs to be a major force in shaping the outcome or otherwise the progress
to date will be in vain.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: October 1, 2002
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Unfinished
AGENDA DESCRIPTION-
Consideration and possible action on the awarding of RFP No #02 -14 (Police Towing and
Storage Services) to the most responsive bidder as the City's primary towing contractor, and
authorize the City Council to execute the four year agreement with three one -year term
extensions, for a maximum total contract length of seven years
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION,
(1) Award a four year contract to Manhattan Beach Towing as the City's primary towing
contractor and authorize the City Manager to exercise the three one -year options if in the
City's best interest
(2) Alternatively discuss and take other action related to this Item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION.
The City contracts with a towing company to provide towing and storage for vehicles that are
impounded due to Illegal parking, traffic accidents, arrest, stolen vehicles, and other reasons
The City typically orders 55 -60 tows per month This results in cost recovery for the city
because of the 10% administrative surcharge that the contractor pays from the gross receipts
for all tow services, charges, and vehicle storage RFP #02 -14 was issued to (4) four south
bay companies on June 20, 2002 Completed bids were due back on July 16, 2002 We
received responses from the following tow companies Jim & Jack's Automotive, Manhattan
Beach Towing, and S &W Towing & Storage Due diligence was conducted on all the
responses

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued).
The three responses were evaluated with the following criteria experience, facilities, ability to
meet the City's needs, references, and cost As part of staffs evaluation, the City Attorney's
office conducted a background check on all three companies based upon public records This
review included an inspection of complaints filed with regulator and consumer agencies, civil
litigation records, and publicly accessible criminal records to locate any matters involving the
proposed operators and their principals
The Police Department does not believe that cost should be the City's primary concern since
the expenses for towing and storage is borne by the registered owner of the vehicle, not the
City. Rather, staff believes the operators' experience, relating in particular to proper damage -
free vehicle handling and customer service, are of prime importance This priority is based
primarily on the City's desire to limit staff time for responding to consumer complaints and to
protect citizens' safety and property It appears that all of the bidders have the equipment and
number of staff needed to meet the City's limited towing demands
The City's current towing contract is with Jim & Jack's Automotive The City has received
excellent service from Jim & Jack's for the past 15 years City staff has not identified any
records showing that Jim & Jack's has a poor service record and staffs general consensus is
that the City has been extremely well served by the current operator The City Attorney's
office has reported that it does not have any record of responding to legal issues involving the
current operator
After evaluating the three bidders, it appears that all three are qualified to meet the City's
operational and equipment needs However, based upon background and reference checks,
and service costs, staff recommends that Manhattan Beach Towing ( "MBT ") located at 4622
Marine Ave, Lawndale be selected as the City's tow operator Staff's recommendation is
based upon the following
Jim and Jack's Automotive has a proven track record with the City and has provided
15 years of excellent service The Better Business Bureau's records indicated that
it received one complaint regarding Jim & Jack's Automotive but that it had been
satisfactorily resolved The Bureau of Automotive Repair's records indicated that
there had been two sustained complaints against Jim & Jack's respecting improper
invoicing and faulty /unauthorized repairs With respect to litigation, research
revealed one case filed in October 2001 relating to an automobile accident Jim &
Jacks, however, informed the Police Department that while it values its relationship
with the City (which is why it bid on the contract), it would prefer to discontinue its
towing services
• MBT received favorable references from the California Highway Patrol and the
Automobile Club of Southern California Research revealed no complaints or
actions with respect to the Better Business Bureau of the Bureau of Automotive
Repair Two civil (superior court) cases were located One case was an automobile
accident case filed in June 1997 (outcome unknown) The other case is a civil case
filed in August of 2000.
06,;
• S &W Towing has received one complaint with regard to the Better Business Bureau
which the Bureau reported was satisfactorily resolved S &W has been involved in
substantially more litigation than the other proposed operators In 1997, S &W filed
an action against the city of Manhattan Beach based upon that City awarding a
towing contract to an operator other than S &W Oudgment was entered in the City's
favor) In 1995, S &W filed a $2 million breach of contract action against Los
Angeles County alleging the County had breached its towing agreement with S &W
Qudgment was entered in the County's favor) Since 1986, S &W has been the
defendant in over 25 other civil matters It appears that at least 18 of these cases
resulted in judgments against S &W and /or its principals and /or employees The
remainder of the cases were either dismissed (it is unknown whether such were
dismissed as a result of settlements that were reached between the parties) or the
City Attorney's office was unable to determine how the cases were resolved Two
cases included allegations of assault and battery (one of these cases is still pending
and includes allegations of sexual batterythe other case was dismissed). Several
of the complaints filed against S &W included allegations of property conversion and
theft The judgments that have been entered against S &W are substantially all
small claims actions Further, in 2001 one of S &W's principals and its Operations
Manager were convicted of criminal battery from an incident involving an S &W
customer The criminal case is related to one of the civil cases referred to above
Finally, two out of the three reference checks resulted in negative comments
regarding S &W's performance
Since MBT meets the City's proposal requirements, it's background check was positive
and it has provided the lowest bid, staff recommends that the towing contract be awarded to
MBT MBT is currently a primary tow company for the Automobile Club of Southern California
(AAA) and is on the California Highway Patrol's tow rotation list Staff contacted
representatives from these agencies who gave very favorable reports
Staff also believes that Jim & Jack's would be an acceptable operator and has no
objection to the contract being awarded to Jim & Jack's given its proven track record in the
City It should be noted that Jim & Jack's charges $20.00 more per tow than MBT Also, while
Jim & Jack's submitted a proposal, it has informed staff that it is doing so to assist the City if
necessary, but that it has a relatively small towing operation that it would rather discontinue
The City does not recommend awarding the contract to S &W based upon the background
information set forth above
RECOMMENDATION
Based on all the factors involved, it is recommended the City Council award the Police
Towing and Storage Services contract to Manhattan Beach Towing

criminal activities related to drug trafficking and drug use
Enclosed is information which describes the activities of L A IMPACT While L A
IMPACT is a law enforcement organization, the information provided can be disseminated
publicly Also enclosed is information on the Department of Homeland Security
There is now an additional threat to our society after the events of last fall in New York

individually by each city in Los Angeles County Each police department in Los Angeles
County is now cooperating with federal agencies and state agencies with respect to the threat of
terrorists
The purpose of the enclosed resolution is to adopt an amended and restated MOU to also
include cities jointly and collectively targeting, investigating and prosecuting terrorists
Our Association believes that this is an important effort for our Departments and cities to
jointly undertake
The enclosed draft resolution is for presentation to your city council and when adopted by
your city council would accomplish the adoption of an amended and restated MOU as described
above The L A IMPACT information and Department of Homeland Security information
mentioned above should be included in your staff report to the city council Also enclosed is a

you, or members of your city family, as would appear necessary and appropriate
Once adopted, it is the intent of the Chiefs of Police Association to undertake a study of
an enhanced point cooperative effort to protect citizens from what is now certain to be a long-
term threat from terrorists There will be, therefore, further recommendations and reports to each
chief of police and city concerning point organizational efforts to combat terrorism, as well as
recommendations which will identify funding sources necessary to support the effort
We urge that you undertake presenting this to your city council at the earliest date, and
thereafter forwarding a copy of the resolution adopted by your city council to me as soon as
possible
We look forward to working together on this significant effort
Very truly yours,

AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING. Consent Calendar
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action for approval of Community Cable Studio and Office work
space rehabilitation and upgrade for the amount of $40,900
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Authorize payment to El Segundo Unified School District for rehabilitation and upgrades
to Community Cable Studio /office located at El Segundo High School
2) Alternatively discuss and take other action related to this item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The Community Cable Television Studio and Offices are located at El Segundo High School in
Building K as part of a joint use agreement between the city and ESUSD Building K is
currently under renovation as part of the local Bond Measure "E" Restoration and
Modernization Project During the renovation process Community cable has been relocated
and is operating out of temporary locations
The Building K construction offers challenges and opportunities for upgrading our facilities
Our studio area is currently outside the scope of work for the Building K restoration project
However, in working together with the ESUSD and their contractors, staff has received bids
on upgrading several aspects of the facility to meet the operational needs of our cable
studio The scope of work deals directly with the vital areas of concern for efficient
operation of our Cable Studio and office space Increased use of expensive digital
equipment and computers makes environmental and electrical conditions a high priority
The opportunity for improvements completed during off -site operation will allow for
continued uninterrupted service to our residents and city during the modernization
construction

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued)
The preparation of the construction plans and specifications, environmental clearance
documents and right -of -way engineering is now 65% complete
During the design process and subsequent to discussions with the Metropolitan Authority
(MTA), impacted property owners and utility companies, Parsons is required to provide
engineering services beyond what was envisioned at the time the current agreement was
executed These additional services are estimated to cost $302,196 00 and are
summarized below
1 Subsequent to start of design, the MTA has required that a new pedestrian
bridge be constructed between the east and west parts of the Green Line
Station's lower platform, which will be separated by the proposed project MTA
has required this bridge to provide a direct handicapped access pedestrian link
at the Station platform level without the pedestrians having to cross the new
roadway at the roadway level (estimated design cost $96,602 00)
2 During the review process, MTA has required that a seismic analysis of the
Green Line Station structure be performed to evaluate the impact of the City's
project on the Station and to include seismic retrofitting mitigation measures if
warranted The additional design cost for this analysis, not including the design
cost of any needed seismic retrofitting, is $115,926 00
3 Parsons current scope of services included development of right -of -way
engineering maps As design progressed, Parsons has been requested to
provide additional help to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works,
in developing mitigation measures to address property owner concerns and
additional work related to utility relocations in conjunction with right -of -way
clearance
The additional cost of these services is $30,292 00
4 Additional drainage studies were required to evaluate the existing railroad
channel and the impact of the underpass drainage flow to the channel It has
now been determined that the channel needs to be replaced by a storm drain
pipe system Additionally, the design has to be coordinated with design features
of the Rosecrans /Aviation intersection improvements, which is anticipated to be
advertised in early 2003 for construction Additional cost of these design
services is $59,376 00
Total additional cost of design services is $302,196 00

and Parks Department
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION,
1) Receive and file, 2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The City retained PMW Associates to perform an organizational audit of the Recreation and
Parks Department and make written recommendations regarding the findings of the audit The
audit was undertaken as a part of the ongoing City policy of periodically reviewing the function
and operations of the various departments within the organization The City selected PMW
Associates after a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process PMW Associates was
selected largely because of the firm's experience in completing organizational audits, including
two successful previous departmental audits in the City of El Segundo
The stated goals of the audit were as follows
Assess the department's effectiveness in fulfilling its tasks,
• Analyze the training needs of departmental staff, including customer satisfaction,

Background and Discussion (con't):
• Review the existing communication functions,
• Assess the existing business practices, policies and procedures,
• Analyze the needs for technology improvements,
• Assess the need for supervisory training for mid -level managers,
• Review the department's organizational structure and make any recommended
changes
The audit process undertaken by PMW Associates included review and analysis of the
department's organization chart, the fob description and salary tables for full and part-time
positions, recreation facility operational and use policies, Recreation and Parks Commission
policies and practices, City street tree policies, the City's point use agreement with the El
Segundo School District, the department Team Building Report prepared by Management
Dynamics, Inc in February 2001 and other related department materials In addition, PMW
Associates completed face -to -face interviews with members of staff, the Recreation and Parks
Commission, City Council and two focus groups comprised of local residents The written
report of the consultant's findings was submitted to the City Manager in August 2002
Because the audit of the Recreation and Parks Department, like all other departmental audits
undertaken in the City, focuses on a number of specific personnel issues, it has been staffs
practice to analyze the findings and recommendations of the consultant and prepare an
implementation plan that is distributed throughout the affected department during the
implementation process Accordingly, staff has attached a copy of the audit implementation
plan for the Council's review It should be noted also that the City Manager and Assistant City
Manager have met with members of the department staff regarding the implementation plan
and presented the plan to the Recreation and Parks Commission on September 18, 2002
As with previous department audits, it is staffs intention to implement this plan administratively
and provide periodic updates about the process to the City Council and Recreation and Parks
Commission Because significant work will be required to implement the audit appropriately,
the Assistant City Manager will assist the Director of Recreation and Parks and the
management staff of the department throughout the process Staff is recommending no action
at this time, other than to receive and file the attached audit implementation plan

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued)
Deputy City Clerk
As part of the preliminary budget preparation process, Human Resources Division staff
conducted an analysis of the Internal salary relationship of the Deputy City Clerk and Deputy
City Treasurerjob classifications As a result of that analysis, the classification of Deputy City
Clerk was proposed for an increase of approximately 7 -1/2% and a placement approximately
5% below the related mid- management classification of Deputy City Treasurer
Library Network Assistant
For the last several years the Library has utilized a part-time, 20 -hour per week position to
provide day -to -day operational and technical support for all Library automated programs,
including the in -house operating system, Innopac, public and staff microcomputers, Internet
services and specialized CD Rom information resources, to provide support to staff, and to
coordinate the Installation, maintenance and repair of all Library computer hardware
Library management staff has determined that their current and evolving computer technology
requirements necessitate additional hours and sophistication on the part of the position
incumbent It is anticipated that the change to a full time, 40 -hour per week position with
benefits and merit system status will attract and retain a highly competent individual The job
classification will be allocated to the CEA bargaining unit and will be subject to a 3% increase
according to the Memorandum of Understanding with the City effective with the payroll
beginning October 5, 2002
The total number of budgeted permanent employees in the Library will not change as a result
of the establishment of this job classification In conjunction with the retirement of a long -time
Library Assistant, staff determined that the full -time position was no longer needed to support
the Library's purchasing and acquisition systems
The fiscal Impact of these two positions is $1,500 and is included in the FY 2002 -2003 Budget

20021001 - Water Purchase Agreement (WBMWD)
1rJ

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued):
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) supplies water to the
WBMWD, which in turn supplies water to the City This agreement will provide the City the
opportunity to purchase 9,000 acre -feet of potable water every year for five (5) years at a
cost of $510 per acre -foot (Tier 1) If potable water use increases, the cost to purchase
additional water would be at the rate of $591 per acre -foot (Tier 2) This agreement states
that the City would be committed to pay for the 9,000 acre -feet whether this water was
used or not In effect, the agreement provides a steady stream of revenue to WBMWD
Each year, the City would have the opportunity to revise its water use estimate for the
following year to match its anticipated use
The amount of potable water used is decreasing because of the higher use of reclaimed
water Future developments in the City, such as the proposed El Segundo Corporate
Center, would increase the potable water use
Negotiations are currently under way for the leasing of 4,601 acre -feet of water rights for
use by the future water well The City currently has 953 acre -feet, which would bring the
total to 5,554 acre -feet for water well use Of this amount, 4,700 acre -feet would be
useable for drinking after treatment The water well project could be operational within a
year and a half after the leasing agreement is approved
Once the water well is operational, the water purchased from WBMWD could decrease
from 9,000 acre -feet to 4,300 acre -feet The cost of water well water is estimated to be
$657 per acre -foot

J. �i
Option B Provides sufficient potable water for the near future but is wholly dependent
on imported water If more water is used, the cost will increase to $591 per each
additional acre -foot
Option C Costs more at this time, but provides an independent source of water If the
water well water is reduced due to maintenance or content, then additional purchase of
imported water will cost $591 per acre -foot Also, any amount over the total provided by
both the water well and the imported water would be at the $591 per acre -foot rate
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the water purchase agreement be approved to provide waterto the
City Every year, an analysis will be made to determine the following year's water needs in
order to minimize the costs Once the water well is operational, then a decision can be
made as to the use of the quantities of imported water and well water
In the future, water may become available from a water salinization plant that is being
proposed to be built at a nearby power plant This option will be explored at that time

Imported Water Purchase Agreement — Request for Signature
Your agency has elected to sign a voluntary Imported Water Purchase Agreement
(Agreement) with West Basin Municipal Water District. The Agreement establishes a
customer's annual allocation of lower priced water (Tier 1) and its commitment to purchase
a total amount of imported water from the District over the five -year term. Without an
Agreement, a customer would pay a higher price (Tier 2) for firm purchases from the
District
Enclosed as Attachment A is the final Agreement With a Base Allocation that meets your
agency's request (the Base Allocation determines both the annual Tier 1 amount and the
total commitment). Attachment B shows three revisions made to the draft Agreement
language sent to you in June 2002. These revisions, which have been incorporated into
Attachment A, are adopted from similar revisions made to the District's Purchase Order with
the Metropolitan Water District and should benefit the Purchaser.
Please sign the final Agreement and return the original to the District by September 21,
2002 The District will then send your agency a copy of the final executed Agreement.
Sincerely,

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued)
INTRODUCTION
Every three years the State of California adopts the model building codes (budding,
plumbing, mechanical, electrical, fire etc) After this occurs, all local government agencies
have 180 days to adopt the State codes and add their local amendments. The California
State Budding Standards Commission requires all jurisdictions throughout the State of
California to begin enforcing the latest edition of the California codes on November 1,
2002 Staff recommends City Council adopt these codes with amendments with an
effective date of November 1, 2002 consistent with the State requirement
The California code series provides the minimum standards for any budding or structure
which is erected, constructed, altered or demolished. Staff is recommending amendments
to both the building and fire codes to protect the welfare of the occupants and to ensure
the economic viability of the community
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
Both the Budding Safety Division and Fire Department staff are proposing amendments to
the California Building Code and the California Fire Code The building code amendments
proposed will have a minor affect on wood construction and a slightly greater effect on
steel frame construction The fire code amendments create new requirements for "mid
rise" buildings between 55 to 75 feet in height These amendments will only affect new
construction and substantial remodels, and not be retroactive to existing buildings (For
reference purposes the Atrium budding, by Continental Development Corporation, and 999
Sepulveda Blvd, by Kilroy Realty, has engineered their buildings to be in compliance with
the latest code requirements in steel structural design )
WHY WE NEED BUILDING CODE AMENDMENTS
In 1994, the Northridge earthquake caused over $44 billion in damage effecting over
29,000 buildings and structures One of the most significant findings that resulted from
investigating the damaged buildings was that steel- framed buildings performed poorly A
number of steel framed buildings suffered extensive damage that was very costly to repair.
A lot of research has been conducted on the performance of steel framed buildings
resulting in new code language and requirements
There are three different recognized building code authorities throughoutthe United States
each with their own code standard These three budding authorities have joined together
to create one standardized set of codes, the International Code which is produced by the
International Code Council Currently all states in the country except for six will adopt at
least one of the international codes from the series. California is one of the exceptions and
has refused to adopt latest 2000 International Code. Instead the state has readopted the
old 1997 Uniform Budding Code which we currently enforce
Because California has now fallen behind in the implementation of the latest code
technology, by not adopting the International Code series, staff is proposing several
structural amendments that will maintain the City of El Segundo at a high code standard
and meet the structural requirements as set in the International Budding Code. The
amendments have been researched by the regional code change committee and will be
COUNC& AUGUST 08039UWW0730.0211 NAM) 3 7 ,
.l 1 `L
adopted by several cities in the LA region. Staff is recommending that this city adopt the
amendments as well.
WHY WE NEED FIRE CODE AMENDMENTS
The model building and fire codes provide special language for the construction of
buildings over 75 feet in height These buildings were classed as "high rise" buildings
This special language required high rise buildings to add very expensive safety elements to
protect the occupants in an emergency situation
In the past, El Segundo Fire Department did not have a ladder that could reach a building
that was 75 feet in height To mitigate this condition and safeguard the well being of the
building occupants, City Council passed an ordinance that lowered the high rise
requirements to 55 feet In past six years El Segundo purchased a state of the art 100 feet
truck ladder that will now be able to reach 75 feet buildings.
Therefore, staff proposes a change to the high rise requirement by raising the height back
to 75 feet and adding new "mid rise" requirements. This new requirement will allow
developers to realize a cost savings for buildings under 75 feet.
FISCAL IMPACT TO DEVELOPERS
To understand the financial impacts of these proposed amendment to the cost of
construction, staff assumed the construction of a new 3,000 square foot home and a new
five story office budding.
The amendments that relate to wood construction would increase the cost of
construction by an additional $100 to $500 depending on the nature of the design
2 The amendments that relate to steel frame construction would increase the cost of
construction by an additional 1% to 1 5% depending on the nature of the design.
3. The amendments that relate to mid rise buildings would decrease the cost of
construction by 0 5% to 1 % depending on the nature of the design.

ORDINANCE NO. 2002-
AN ORDINANCE INCORPORATING THE 2001 CALIFORNIA
BUILDING CODE VOLUMES I, II, AND III ( "CBC ") BY REFERENCE
AND AMENDING THE CBC BASED UPON LOCAL CLIMATIC,
TOPOGRAPHIC, AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS.
The council of the city of El Segundo does ordain as follows
SECTION 1. FINDINGS. The City Council finds and declares as follows.
A In accord with Health & Safety Code § 17958 7, it is in the public interest to adopt
the 2001 Edition of the California Building Code Volumes I, II, and III ( "CBC ") with the
changes set forth in this Ordinance.
B Pursuant to the requirements of Health & Safety Code § 17958 7, the City Council
finds the following.
1. There are local geographical conditions justifying the CBC amendments set
forth below. Specifically, the City is located in an area with a high probability
for a severe seismic event Studies resulting from the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake determined that additional structural requirements in the City's
building codes are needed to give buildings a reasonable degree of structural
integrity to help protect public health and safety in the event of a seismic
event,
There are local topographical conditions justifying the CBC amendments set
forth below The City has hillside and flat land developments that require
special drainage precautions Structures would be subject to water damage
without special requirements addressing site drainage. The City has a mixture
of structures with varying heights that make fire suppression response
difficult. Occupants of structures may be subject to fire and smoke hazards.
C. The specific amendments of the CBC that fulfill this requirement are-
1. CBC §§ 209 -H to 214 -M define additional structures that are subject to the
fire safety requirements in this code,
CBC §§ 1612 2 1 to 3310.2 regulate the means of construction, load
calculations, and other, miscellaneous, matters needed to strengthen the
structural integrity of structures subject to the ESMC
D Based upon the foregoing findings, the changes made to the CBC by this Ordinance
are reasonably necessary to provide sufficient and effective protection of life, health and
property

therefrom, does not exceed the permissible deflection of attached distributing or resisting
elements See UBC Standard 23 -2 for a method of calculating the deflection of a
blocked wood structural panel diaphragm
Permissible deflection must be that deflection up to which the diaphragm and any

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING BY REFERENCE THE 2001
EDITION OF THE CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE, 2000 EDITION OF
THE UNIFORM FIRE CODE, STANDARDS IN THE 1997
EDITION OF THE UNIFORM FIRE CODE, AND AMENDING
THESE CODES THROUGH EXPRESS FINDINGS OF LOCAL
NECESSITY.
The Council of the city of El Segundo does ordain as follows
SECTION 1 FINDINGS The City Council finds that certain local climatic, geological, or
topographical conditions exist as follows
A Climatic - The City experiences periods of extremely high temperatures
accompanied by low humidity and high winds each year These conditions could
create an environment in which the Fire Department may be unable to control
fires occurring in vegetation as well as structures not having built in fire
protection
B Geological - The City is located in a seismically active area A significant
earthquake could render the Fire Department incapable of providing adequate fire
protection In that instance, built -in fire protection would be relied upon for
controlling most structural fires
C After due consideration, the City Council finds and determines that due to these
local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions that amendments,
additions, and deletions to the California Fire Code, 2001 Edition, are reasonably
necessary to provide sufficient and effective levels of fire safety for the protection
of life, health and property Specifically, these amendments are made as follows
CFC § 1003,12-1003 1.14 Provides a means of ensuring that fire
protection systems are installed and maintained in a manner that will
provide adequate protection during periods of low humidity and high
winds, potential seismic activity, or in areas of restricted access present in
the City
2 CFC § 3701 -3708 5 Requires the installation of fire protection and life
safety equipment in new mid -rise buildings /structures that increase the fire
and life safety of the structuresibuildings in order to provide adequate fire
protection during periods of low humidity and high winds, potential
seismic activity, or in areas of restricted access present in the City
Page 1 of 18
�
I i
CFC § 6401 requires the installation of spill containment, leak detection
and smoke detectors in areas where lead acid batteries are operated in
large concentrations to increase the fire and life safety of the building and
its occupants in order to provide adequate fire protection and life safety
during periods of low humidity and high winds, potential seismic activity,
or in areas of restricted access present in the City.
4 CFC § 7802.3. Prohibits the general use of fireworks, including "Safe
and Sane" fireworks in order to reduce the danger from fire during periods
of low humidity and high winds, potential seismic activity, or in areas of
restricted access present in the City
SECTION 2, ADDITIONAL FINDINGS. The City Council also finds as follows•
A Although California Health & Safety Code § 18938(b) provides that the
provisions of the California Buildings Standards Code, including the California
Fire Code, are applicable to all occupancies within the State, the Califorma State
Fire Marshal's office believes that the California Fire Code applies only to those
occupancy classifications within its jurisdiction;
B The State Fire Marshal's office does not regulate retail, commercial industrial,
hazardous, or office type uses,
C The limitation of the California Fire Code to only those occupancies subject to the
State Fire Marshal's jurisdiction would provide an inadequate level of public
protection in matters of public health, safety, and welfare;
D The City Council intends that the California Fire Code, as adopted by this
ordinance, apply to all occupancy and use classifications regulated by the City
Code
SECTION 3 Chapter 10 to Title 13 of the El Segundo Municipal Code ( "ESMC ") is amended in
its entirety to read as follows:
