BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION
On February 21, 2006 the City Council introduced an ordinance to amend El Segundo
Municipal Code § 1 -4 -3 regarding City Council compensation to increase compensation to
the amount of $900 00 per month
California Government Code § 36516 specifies that the City Council may only increase its

last adjusted its compensation in 1990, when it increased the total to $483 00 per month
The Government Code allows Councils to increase compensation up to 5% annually If
previous Councils had adjusted their compensation 5% annually, the current total would be
$1054 33 per month
After surveying levels of City Council compensation for other local cities, it is recommended
that Ordinance No 1392 be adopted

AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING. Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION.
Consideration and possible action regarding the approval of a professional services
agreement with Prosum Inc to provide information technology consulting and support
services including a turnkey solution for both Active Directory migration and the setup of a
new Exchange email server and other regularly scheduled services (Fiscal Impact
$55,700)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION.
(1) Authorize the City Manager to enter into a professional services agreement, as
approved to form by the City Attorney with Prosum, Inc ( Prosum) for Information Systems
technology consulting and support services in the amount of $135,700, (2) Alternatively
discuss and take other action related to this item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION'
On September 20, 2005, the City Council adopted the FY 2005 -2006 budget, which
included $80,000 for Information Systems technology consulting and support services with
Prosum At the end of November 2005 and after the FY 2005 -2006 budget was already
adopted, the City was notified by Microsoft that all support is immediately being dropped
for Microsoft Windows NT operating system and Microsoft Exchange version 5 5, which the
City uses as its primary networking and email system While staff had originally intended to
gradually migrate to the these platforms, the elimination of support from Microsoft on the
Windows NT operating system is requiring completing the migration to the new operating
system much sooner in this fiscal year

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued)
This lack of support makes the City's systems more vulnerable to potential problems or
outages The upgrade to any of the newer Microsoft network systems requires a
conversion to their new administrative database called "Active Directory" This conversion
is a one -time effort that is beyond the skills of our existing staff
As a result, staff is now requesting to increase the scope of services with Prosum, Inc by
$55,700 to a total of $135,700 The additional $55,700 in funding will be transferred from
budgeted salary and benefits savings within the Administrative Services and City Manager
departments for open or recently filled staff positions and no new appropriation is required
Prosum will provide a turnkey solution including both the Active Directory migration and the
setup of a new Exchange email server Once the system is tested, Prosum will assist in
the migration of users from the previous system to the new one in a manner that is
minimally disruptive to the users
Prosum is a Gold Certified partner with Microsoft, and is one of only a handful of
infrastructure service providers in the Los Angeles area to have obtained 'Managed
Partner' status with Microsoft Several of Prosum's Active Directory and Exchange 2003
designs have been validated by Microsoft Consulting Services
The City has utilized the services of Prosum for network consulting and support for several
years in areas such as network design and management, software updates, personal
computer maintenance, web updates, and specialized Police communications systems
The Prosum consultants have an extensive knowledge of the City's network infrastructure
and software setup, which can significantly reduce billable time
This project has been reviewed and approved by the Executive Technology Review
Committee (ETRC)
Staff has checked with other cities to see how they handled the migration to the new
systems Approaches varied from completing the project with all in -house staff to
completing it by outsourcing it entirely, however, the overall cost and duration of the efforts
are comparable to what staff is now recommending
This agreement with Prosum will allow Information Systems staff to continue to respond to
daily and ongoing technical requests while completing top priority projects such as
addressing the need for additional disk storage citywide, technical support for area code

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: (continued)
The Plaza El Segundo Development is currently under construction at 850 South Sepulveda
Boulevard As part of the development construction, public infrastructure such as streets,
traffic signals, street lights, water mains, sewers and storm drains will be constructed and
dedicated to the City upon completion It is critical that a City inspector monitor the
construction of the public improvements to assure proper installation such that the facility
operates properly and won't be a future maintenance burden
Construction of the public improvements is imminent and it is critical that the City secure
inspection services in a timely manner such that the development can proceed on schedule It
is recommended that CALTROP Corporation's existing agreement be amended to include
inspection of Plaza El Segundo public infrastructure as this can be accomplished in a timely
manner and CALTROP is highly qualified and available to provide the services The costs of
Plaza El Segundo inspections will be tracked separately from the Douglas Street Gap Closure
project such that clear and accurate accounting of both projects can be accomplished
The Plaza El Segundo developer has committed to deposit funds to cover the cost of the
inspections. Any unused funds would be returned to the developer upon completion of the
project

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: March 7, 2006
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action to accept $5,000 donation from El Segundo Rotary for full
sponsorship of the 2006 Annual Concert in the Park series
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Accept donation of $5,000 from El Segundo Rotary and apply to the Recreation and Parks
Department's Concert in the Park Trust Fund for sponsorship of the 2006 Annual Concert in
the Park series, (2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
During the City budget cuts, the Recreation and Parks Department was challenged to continue
to provide the service without general fund dependence The best possible scenario was to
limit programs that could attract sponsorship for a win -win situation, continued community
programming and positive promotions for the sponsor The Concert in the Park series was
one of those "sponsorship oriented" programs. Fortunately, the El Segundo Rotary has once
again graciously agreed to sponsor the 2006 Concert in the Park series with a donation of
$5,000

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION.
On February 21, 2006, 1 requested that an item be brought back to discuss the compensation
for the City Clerk and City Treasurer positions At the request of Councilmember Busch, I also
agree to discuss compensation for the City's appointed Commissioners In addition, I
requested staff to research and survey those positions to determine the "industry standard" in
our area

Background and Discussion:
Hills Estates and Torrance Compensation for the City Clerk position ranged from
$12,707 00 /month, plus a vehicle allowance and benefits in Redondo Beach to $200 00 /month
in Manhattan Beach A similar result occurs in the survey for the City Treasurer position The
positions, however, vary widely in the different cities Some are elected, some are appointed,
some are part-time, some are full -time and in at least two cities, the City Clerk and City
Treasurer functions are incorporated within the functions of full -time Department Heads
There is no uniformity in the manner which the City Clerk and City Treasurer positions are
compensated in the South Bay region
The positions of City Clerk and City Treasurer in El Segundo currently receive $930 00 /month
That rate of compensation was approved by the City Council in 1989 1 am recommending
that compensation for the City Treasurer and City Clerk positions be increased by $370 00
monthly to $1,300 00 /month effective April 1, 2006
When I requested that compensation for the City Clerk and City Treasurer be agendized for
the March 7`h meeting, Councilmember Busch requested that the stipend paid to the City's
Commissioners also be addressed Currently, only the members of the Planning Commission
and Recreation and Parks Commission receive a stipend for attending meetings The results
of the survey for members of Planning and Recreation and Parks Commissions in surrounding
cities vary widely Compensation for Planning and Recreation and Parks Commissioners in
the surveyed cities ranges from $0 to $60.00 /per meeting Currently, the members of both
Commissions receive $20 00 per meeting That amount was approved in 1987 1 am
recommending that the City Council increase the total for the members of the Planning and
Recreation and Parks Commissions to $50 00 per meeting effective April 1, 2006

AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING- Mayor McDowell
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding the City's position on AB 2015 (Lieu), a bill
which expands municipal representation on the Southern California Air Quality
Management District (SCAQMD) Board of Directors
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION.
1) Authorize the Mayor to execute and forward the attached Resolution, 2) Alternatively,
discuss and take other action related to this item
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION,
AB 2015 (Lieu) seeks to expand local government representation on the SCAQMD Board and
provide more equitable representation for cities The current statute effectively prescribes a
procedure that ensures a councilmember from the City of Los Angeles will always represent
the western sector cities of the County This bill expands the SCAQMD Board from twelve to
sixteen members and accommodates separate seats for a city within the western sector of the
County, as well as, the City of Los Angeles Furthermore, it realigns cities within the Los
Angeles County into sectors which are more geographically equitable while providing
additional elected official representative for the other remaining counties within the District

ASSEMBLY BILL No. 2015
Introduced by Assembly Member Lieu
(Coauthor: Assembly Member Koretz)
(Coauthor Senator Kuehl)
February 10, 2006
An act to amend Section 40420 of the Health and Safety Code,
relating to air pollution
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2015, as introduced, Lieu Air quality South Coast Air Quality
Management District board membership
(1) Existing law, the Lewis - Presley Air Quality Management Act,
establishes the South Coast Air Quality Management District in those
portions of the Counties of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San
Bernardino included within the South Coast Air Basin, and designates
that district as the sole and exclusive local agency with the
responsibility for comprehensive air pollution control within that
basin Existing law requires the south coast district to be governed by
a district board consisting of 12 members, including 3 members
appointed, one each, by the city selection committees of Orange,
Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties, one member appointed by
cities in the western region of the County of Los Angeles, and one
member appointed by the cities In the eastern region of the County of
Los Angeles Under existing law, the specified cities in the western
and eastern regions of Los Angeles County are required to organize a
city selection committee, one per region, and hold a public meeting in
order to determine the appointment from each region Existing law
prescribes the cities that comprise the western region of the County of
Los Angeles, and provides that those cities not included in the western
99
066
AB 2015 —2—
region are deemed to constitute the eastern region for the purpose of
appointing members to the district board
This bill would increase the number of members on the south coast
district board to 16, 3 members appointed, one each, by the city
selection committees of Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino
Counties and one member appointed by the city council of the City of
Los Angeles The bill would add the cities of Calabasas and Malibu to
the list of cities included in the western region of the County of Los
Angeles and would authorize, on or after January 1, 2007, and
annually thereafter, the city selection committee of the western region
of Los Angeles County and the city selection committee of the eastern
region of Los Angeles County to meet Jointly in order to determine
which cities are to be included in each of the regions Because the bill
would impose additional duties on cities within the south coast
district, this bill would establish a state - mandated local program The
bill would also provide that its provisions would not be interpreted to
limit the rights or terms of south coast district board members
appointed as of January 1, 2007
(2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state
Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates
determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state,
reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these
statutory provisions
Vote majority Appropriation no Fiscal committee yes
State - mandated local program yes
The people of the State of California do enact as follows
I SECTION 1 Section 40420 of the Health and Safety Code,
2 as added by Section 2 of Chapter 686 of the Statutes of 2003, is
3 amended to read

A RESOLUTION OF THE
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
SUPPORTING AR 2015 (LIEU)
WHICH ENHANCES MUNICIPAL REPRESENTATION
ON THE SCAQMD BOARD OF DIRECTORS
BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of El Segundo as follows
SECTION 1 The City Council finds as follows
A It is in the interest of all municipal governments that cities be
equitably represented on policy - making regional boards,
B The current number of municipal representatives on the South
Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) does not fully
recognize cities in the South Bay and Westside Sectors of Los
Angeles County and places the cities of Calabasas and Malibu in
what is identified by statute as the Eastern Sector of the SCAQMD
jurisdiction,
C Providing separate seats for a city within the Western Sector and
the City of Los Angeles will ensure that the population of the City of
Los Angeles and the populations of smaller cities in the Western
and Eastern Sectors are represented on the SCAQMD Board
commensurate with their populations,
D Realigning cities within Los Angeles County into sectors which are
more geographically equitable is significant and important to
regional policy decision- making,
E Providing the cities of Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino
Counties with representation which more fairly represents their
growing population and greater pollution levels fosters greater "buy -
in" by providing more local input and participation by elected
officials throughout the District,
F The current proposal would retain the expertise of the Sacramento
appointees,
G The current proposal has received the support of the South Bay
Cities Council of Governments, the Las Virgenes- Malibu Council of
Governments, the Gateway Council of Governments, the League of
California Cities, Los Angeles County Division, the Contract Cities
Association, the Independent Cities Association and the City of Los
Angeles,
071
SECTION 2 The City of El Segundo supports AB 2015 by Assemblymember
Ted Lieu which requires a change in membership of the SCAQMD Board to add
4 additional municipal members: 1 additional municipal representative for each
county represented by the District
SECTION 3, The City Clerk is directed to certify the adoption of this Resolution,
record this Resolution in the book of the Ciiy's original resolutions, and make a
minute of the adoption of the Resolution in the City Council's records and the
minutes of this meeting
SECTION 4 This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption
and will remain effective unless repealed or superseded.

The South Bay Cities Council of Governments ( SBCCOG) is in receipt of your letter dated February
3, 2006, requesting that the SBCCOG end its legislative effort to enhance municipal membership on
the South Coast Air Quality Management Board This letter is to respectfully inform you that the
SBCCOG and its partners — Las Virgenes- Malibu Cities Council of Governments, Gateway Cities
Council of Governments, League of California Cities -Los Angeles County Division, City of Los
Angeles, California Contract Cities Association, and a growing list of supporters — will continue to
pursue legislation to address our concerns
AB 2015 was introduced by Assembly Member Ted Lieu (D- Torrance) on February 10 This bill will
add four municipal members to the District Board — one for each of the four counties served, place the
cities of Malibu and Calabasas into the Western Sector of Los Angeles County, and provide for a
mechanism to reconfigure the cities of Los Angeles County into roughly equal (by population)
sectors
As you know, AB 2015 is the latest in a succession of ongoing efforts to provide more direct
representation for cities on the SCAQMD Board Indeed, it was the City of Los Angeles that
originally attempted legislation in this regard a few years ago and Council Member Jan Perry, our
Western Sector representative, has consistently supported our coalition's effort throughout her term of
office
We have continually kept the District Board informed of our efforts and have worked to gather
comment and input from all interested parties across the 4- county AQMD region We will continue to
make every effort to meet and discuss important issues with Council Member Perry and other
members of the District Board We have also asked her to attend our meetings and her staff has
assured us that she will provide a newsletter on important air quality issues
Discussing, however, is not equal to voting In LA County's western region, the issues and concerns
facing the 25 smaller cities, who are inevitably represented by an LA council member, are often quite
different from those facing the City of Los Angeles
As you have repeatedly asked us, "What's the griper" We continue to respond to you and others that
"the gripe" centers on the unmet need for direct membership and voting rights on a crucial regional

board at a crucial time It is unfortunate that you did not meet with us in person when we had
scheduled a meeting in Los Angeles with you and Supervisor Antonovich but instead chose to
participate by phone Further, when our Board members had scheduling conflicts and requested
continuance of this item at the January AQMD Board meeting, you did not grant our request and
proceeded to have the Board vote on opposition to the proposal
Nevertheless, please be assured that throughout this process, we will continue to try to keep the lines
of communication open with you, the District Board members and the District staff
