EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Unfinished Business
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action to adopt the City of El Segundo Multi- Hazard Mitigation Plan
subject to the document's review and approval by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA). (Fiscal Impact: None)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the City of El Segundo Multi- Hazard Plan
subject to the document's review and approval by FEMA; 2) Alternatively, discuss and take
other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
On May 16, 2006, the City Council authorized acceptance of $93,750 in grant funding from the
United States Department of Homeland Security Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. These
funds were to be used to reimburse the City for personnel time, consulting /contractor,

the City. Staff retained the services of Emergency Planning Consultants to assist in the
development of a* City hazard mitigation plan in February, 2007.

C!i:
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: (cont.)
The Hazard Mitigation Plan is required pursuant to the Stafford Act (42 U.S.C. § 5165). In
accordance with that Act, local government agencies requesting future grant funding for
mitigation projects must complete a comprehensive plan and have it approved by FEMA to be
eligible for disaster relief and hazard mitigation funding. The City of El Segundo Multi- Hazard
Mitigation Plan outlines the City's vulnerabilities; develops hazard mitigation strategies;
identifies critical facilities and infrastructure contained within the City limits; and identifies other
risk factors.
City staff and the consultant have worked together for over a year to develop a hazard
mitigation plan that complies with the Act. Staff has sought public input into the planning
process through the use of surveys mailed to all City addresses and being made available on
the City's website. The draft plan has also been made available for public review and input on
the City's website as well as hard copies being made available at the City's Library and Fire
Station 1. Local newspapers have been used to make the public aware of the opportunity for
input into the planning process. Staff has also forwarded the document to over sixty members
from local business and industry for review. Additionally, the City's Disaster Council has
reviewed the Plan and recommends that the City Council adopt it. The Multi- Hazard Mitigation
Plan is intended to be used to assist the City Council, City staff, and other El Segundo
community leaders in making decisions that will enhance the safety of El Segundo residents,
business owners, and their infrastructure.
Upon City Council adoption of the City of El Segundo Multi- Hazard Plan, the document will be
forwarded to FEMA for approval. The approved Plan will be reviewed by staff annually and will
need to be revised and resubmitted every five years to maintain continued FEMA approval.

Council, City staff, and other El Segundo community leaders in making
decisions that would enhance the safety of El Segundo residents,
business owners, and City infrastructure.
SECTION 2: The Plan is adopted as set forth in Exhibit A. The City Manager, or
designee, is authorized to execute any required documents to obtain additional federal
or state approvals for the Plan.

Released by Forensic Analytical Consulting Services, Inc.
INTRODUCTION
Forensic Analytical Consulting Services, Inc. (Forensic Analytical) was retained by the City of El
Segundo to perform indoor and outdoor environmental quality sampling for particulates in the city hall
complex and select outdoor sites in the surrounding neighborhoods.
The purpose of the investigation was to 1) supplement previous sampling for particulates (PM10) and
VOCs conducted by Forensic Analytical (see report dated October 9, 2007) by collecting samples for
PM2.5; 2) compare the sampling results to published guidelines and standards, and; 3) provide
information for consideration in assessing risk to occupants and/or residents.
The findings contained in this report are based solely on the results of sample analysis and information
provided. Additional sites or agents not discussed in this report are not represented. Potential
hazardous exposures to other physical, chemical or biological agents not directly specified are not
addressed in this report.
SCOPE OF WORK
This investigation consisted of the following:
Collection of air samples for particulates 2.5 pm aerodynamic diameter and less (PM2.5) in
indoor and outdoor areas;
Analysis of data and report generation.
MONITORING PLAN
A total of 4 representative indoor locations (three in the City Hall building and one in the police
department building) were chosen for sampling PM2.5. The sampling locations were as follows:
• City Hall: Steven Finton's Office
• City Hall: Administration Area of City Council Office.
• City Hall: Basement Offices (Sound Insulation Department)
• Police Department: Commander Area.
A total of 3 representative outdoor locations were chosen for sampling PM2.5. Locations were
determined by city personnel based on neighborhood location and site availability.
The sampling locations were as follows:
• City Hall Rooftop
• Backyard of 730 Bungalow Dr., El Segundo, CA 90245
• Backyard of 827 Virginia St., El Segundo, CA 90245
Samples were collected for 24 hours strating the morning of March 19, 2008 and ending the morning of
March 20, 2008.

Indoor and Outdoor Environmental Quality Sampling Report
Date Prepared: March 24, 2008

Released by Forensic Analytical Consulting Services, Inc.
RESULTS
Sample results are provided in the appendices of this report as follows:
• Table summarizing particulate air sampling (Appendix B).
• Graph of particulate air sampling data (Appendix B)
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS
Particle pollution (also called particulate matter or PM) is the term for a mixture of solid particles and
liquid droplets found in the air. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the
California EPA classify and regulate two size ranges of particulates in outdoor air 1) "inhalable coarse
particles," with diameters larger than 2.5 micrometers and smaller than 10 micrometers and 2) "fine
particles," with diameters that are 2.5 micrometers and smaller. Particulates less than 10 micrometers
in diameter and smaller are known as PM 10 and particles 2.5 micrometers in diameter and smaller are
known as PM2.5.
Outdoor Air
For this study, Forensic Analytical measured PM2.5 for a 24 -hour period (PM 10 was sampled during
previous study). Sample results indicate that on the day of sampling, all of the samples had an average
PM2.5 concentration greater than the US EPA standard for a 24 -hour period of 35 µg /m3 (see Table 1,
Appendix B). Based on a review of California Air Resources Board data, this data is consistent with
other samples collected in the Los Angeles county during this time period (also exceeded the
standard). The US EPA recommends that at these levels, unusually sensitive people should consider
reducing prolonged or heavy exertion.
These results should only be interpreted as an indication of possible trends. For the purpose of
regulatory attainment, long -term sampling should be conducted as attainment is based on not
exceeding the standard more than once per year on average over 3 years. Ambient particulate
concentrations vary due to a variety of factors over days or months (e.g. local source emissions,
weather, wind patterns, etc.)
Indoor Air
Particulates are also a concern in indoor environments because people generally spend the majority of
their time indoors. In general, indoor particulate levels should be equivalent to or less than outdoor
levels. High particulate levels indoors in a mechanically ventilated building would be indicative of a
strong indoor source of particulates as they are generally removed via filtration.
As noted above, Forensic Analytical measured PM2.5 for a 24 -hour period. Indoor sample results
indicate that all of the samples had 24 -hour average concentrations significantly (minimum 2.5 times)
below the lowest outdoor 24 -hour average concentrations (see Table 1, Appendix B). Additionally,
indoor concentrations were generally lower than outdoor concentrations (desirable) throughout the 24-
hour period (see Figure 1, Appendix B) and less than the US EPA outdoor standard for a 24 -hour
period of 35 µg /m3.

LIMITATIONS
The above findings, conclusions, and recommendations are indicative of conditions that existed at the
time of the investigation and are subject to the limitations and variability associated with the
investigation methodology. It should be noted that these conditions could change as a result of any
number of factors, including environmental parameters and activities in the area. Should further
research on the site be conducted the additional data should be reviewed by Forensic Analytical and
the conclusions presented herein may be modified. This report is for the sole use of our client.
This report is not intended to guarantee that the subject site is or is not free from conditions that could
pose a threat to human health or safety. Commonly accepted guidelines in the industrial hygiene
industry maintain that the uncertainty inherent in sampling precludes investigators from definitively
concluding or proving that an environment is "safe ". However, these guidelines recognize that
sampling and inspection findings may be used to support the assumption that an environment presents
conditions of acceptable risk.
If you have any questions regarding this report, or require any additional information, please do not
hesitate to contact our office. Thank you for the opportunity to work with the City of El Segundo.

INTRODUCTION
Forensic Analytical Consulting Services, Inc. (Forensic Analytical) was retained by the City of El
Segundo to perform indoor and outdoor environmental quality sampling for volatile organic compounds
(VOC) and particulates in the city hall complex and select outdoor sites in the surrounding
neighborhoods.
The purpose of the investigation was to 1) collect samples for VOCs and particulates 2) compare the
sampling results to published guidelines and standards 2) provide information for consideration in
assessing risk to occupants and /or residents; and 3) provide recommendations for additional
investigation and /or corrective actions as necessary.
The findings contained in this report are based solely on the results of sample analysis and information
provided. Additional sites or agents not discussed in this report are not represented. Potential
hazardous exposures to other physical, chemical or biological agents not directly specified are not
addressed in this report.
SCOPE OF WORK
This investigation consisted of the following:
• Collection of air samples for volatile organic compounds (VOC) and particulates 10.0 Um
aerodynamic diameter and less (PM -10) in indoor and outdoor areas;
• Analysis of data and report generation.
MONITORING PLAN
In general, the types, numbers, and locations of samples were determined based on site availability,
Forensic Analytical observations, input from city personnel and project management considerations.
A total of 4 representative indoor locations (three in the City Hall building and one in the police
department building) were chosen for sampling particulates PM10 and VOCs. The sampling locations
were as follows:
• City Hall: Steven Finton's Office
• City Hall: Administration Area of City Council Office.
• City Hall: Basement Offices (Sound Insulation Department)
• Police Department: Watch Commander Area.
A total of 3 representative outdoor locations were chosen for sampling particulates PM10 and VOCs.
Locations were determined by city personnel based on neighborhood location and site availability.
The sampling locations were as follows:
• City Hall Rooftop
• Backyard of 730 Bungalow Dr., El Segundo, CA 90245
• Backyard of 648 W. Sycamore Ave., El Segundo, CA 90245

RESULTS
Sample results are provided in the appendices of this report as follows:
• Table summarizing particulate air sampling (Appendix B).
• Graph of particulate air sampling data (Appendix B)
• Table summarizing VOC air sampling (Appendix B).
• Supporting laboratory reports (Appendix C).
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS
Particulates
1. Outdoor Air
Particle pollution (also called particulate matter or PM) is the term for a mixture of solid particles and
liquid droplets found in the air. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the
California EPA classify and regulate two size ranges of particulates in outdoor air 1) "inhalable
coarse particles," with diameters larger than 2.5 micrometers and smaller than 10 micrometers and
2) "fine particles," with diameters that are 2.5 micrometers and smaller. Particulates less than 10
micrometers in diameter and smaller are known as PM10 and particles 2.5 micrometers in diameter
and smaller are known as PM2.5.
For this study, Forensic Analytical measured PM10 for a 24 -hour period. Sample results indicate
that on the day of sampling, all of the samples had an average PM10 concentration less than the
US EPA and Cal EPA standard for a 24 -hour period, 150 µg /m3 and 50 µg /m3, respectively (see
Table 1, Appendix B).
These results should only be interpreted as an indication of possible trends. For the purpose of
regulatory attainment, long -term sampling should be conducted as attainment is based on not
exceeding the standard more than once per year on average over 3 years. Ambient particulate
concentrations vary due to a variety of factors over days or months (e.g. local source emissions,
weather, wind patterns, etc.)
2. Indoor Air
Particulates are also a concern in indoor environments because people generally spend the
majority of their time indoors. In general, indoor particulate levels should be equivalent to or less
than outdoor levels. High particulate levels indoors in a mechanically ventilated building would be
indicative of a strong indoor source of particulates as they are generally removed via filtration.
As noted above, Forensic Analytical measured PM10 for a 24 -hour period. Indoor sample results
indicate that all of the samples had 24 -hour average concentrations below the lowest outdoor 24-
hour average concentrations (see Table 1, Appendix B). Additionally, indoor concentrations were
generally lower than outdoor concentrations (desirable) throughout the 24 -hour period (see Figure
1, Appendix B).
However, a few notable exceptions were observed during the sampling period. First, a peak
concentration of 246 µg /m3 was observed in the Police department watch commander's area at
approximately 9:30 AM. This was a short excursion and was likely due to human activity, such as

shuffling of papers, workers walking in at once, etc. and would not be considered unusual or
problematic. Secondly, the PM10 concentration in the basement area began steadily rising at
approximately midnight and continued to rise until the sampling was discontinued the following
afternoon (see Figure 1, Appendix B). The final concentration exceeded the outdoor rooftop
concentration significantly (i.e. doubled). The cause of the rise in particulate concentration is
unknown.
Volatile Organic Compounds
1. Outdoor Air
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemicals emitted from a variety of natural and man -made
sources. "Volatile" is a term meaning that these chemicals evaporate, or get into the air easily at
normal temperature and pressure and "organic" is a term meaning that these types of chemicals
contain carbon. VOCs include chemicals classified by the EPA as toxic air pollutants such as
benzene, which is found in gasoline; perch lorethlyene, which is emitted from some dry cleaning
facilities; and methylene chloride, which is used as a solvent and paint stripper by a number of
industries. The EPA does not promulgate ambient air quality standards for most individual VOCs
(EPA regulates source emissions of toxic air pollutants). EPA does publish inhalation reference
exposure limits (RfC) for some chemicals for the purpose of evaluating risk hazards. In addition,
the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment ( OEHHA) publishes acute and
chronic reference exposure limits for a variety of VOCs.
For this study, Forensic Analytical collected samples for VOCs over a 24 -hour period. The method
used for this sampling is validated for 67 individual VOCs. Additionally, the laboratory reported any
tentatively identified compounds (TIC) not on this list. Results of the VOC samples were generally
unremarkable. Detectable levels of 2 to 5 individual chemicals (out of validated 67 list) were
reported and concentrations were generally very low (less than 10 µg /rn ). Concentrations were all
well below any published OEHHA or EPA reference exposure levels at the time of sampling, if
available (see Table 2, Appendix B).
As noted above for particulates, sampling data was for a relatively short term. Ambient VOC
concentrations can vary due to a variety of factors over days or months (e.g. local source
emissions, weather, wind patterns, etc.)
2. Indoor Air
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are also emitted from a variety of indoor sources such as
interior furnishings, textiles, office equipment, cleaners, personal care supplies, and pesticides. The
EPA has reported that their levels may be ten to thousands of times higher indoors than found in
the outdoor air. Some may produce odors at very low levels that are considered objectionable. In
addition, many VOCs are irritants and can result in headaches and eye, nose and throat irritation,
and dizziness and can be toxic at high concentrations. The US Occupational Safety and Health
Administration publishes occupational standards (OSHA PEL) for many individual VOCs, however,
these standards are applicable mainly to occupational environments and not necessarily relevant to
non - industrial indoor environments. As noted above the EPA and the OEHHA publish reference
exposure limits for the purpose of evaluating risk hazards.
As above, Forensic Analytical collected samples for VOCs over a 24 -hour period. In general,
results of VOC samples were typical of indoor environments. Detectable levels of 7 -8 individual

Released by Forensic Analytical Consulting Services, Inc.
chemicals (out of validated 67 list) were reported and concentrations were generally low (less than
25 µg /m3). As would be expected in a non - industrial environment, all samples were many
magnitudes lower that any published OSHA standards. Additionally, with one exception, the
concentrations were well below any published OEHHA or EPA reference exposure levels, if
available (see Table 2, Appendix B).
Indoor concentrations of acrolein (a common aldehyde) in the three samples from the city hall
building (1.4 — 1.6 µg /m) were greater than the published acute and chronic OEHHA RELs (0.19
µg /m3 and 0.06 µg /m3, respectively) and EPA reference exposure level (0.02 µg /m). It should be
noted that these reference levels are not regulatory standards but are estimates (with various
uncertainty) of inhalation exposure to the human population (including sensitive subgroups) that is
likely to be without appreciable risk of deleterious non - cancer effects. They are not direct
estimators of risk but rather reference points to gauge the potential effects. At exposures
increasingly greater than these levels the potential for adverse health effects increases. Exposure
above these levels does not imply that adverse health effects will necessarily occur. In addition,
research reported by Health Canada indicates that typical concentrations of acrolein in indoor air
range from 2 to 50 pg /m3. Common sources of acrolein in indoor air include cigarette smoke,
automobile or other gas combustion exhaust, materials / furnishings, and cooking oil.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Consider further investigation into unexplained continuous rise in particulate levels in the
basement area.
2. Confirm that all outdoor smoking areas are sufficient distance from air intakes or infiltration
points to prevent entrainment of cigarette smoke into the building.
3. For future purchases of office furnishings and /or equipment consider buying certified low -
emitting products.
LIMITATIONS
The above findings, conclusions, and recommendations are indicative of conditions that existed at the
time of the investigation and are subject to the limitations and variability associated with the
investigation methodology. It should be noted that these conditions could change as a result of any
number of factors, including environmental parameters and activities in the area. Should further
research on the site be conducted the additional data should be reviewed by Forensic Analytical and
the conclusions presented herein may be modified. This report is for the sole use of our client.
This report is not intended to guarantee that the subject site is or is not free from conditions that could
pose a threat to human health or safety. Commonly accepted guidelines in the industrial hygiene
industry maintain that the uncertainty inherent in sampling precludes investigators from definitively
concluding or proving that an environment is "safe ". However, these guidelines recognize that
sampling and inspection findings may be used to support the assumption that an environment presents
conditions of acceptable risk.

APPENDIX A: MATERIALS AND METHODS
Volatile Organic Compounds
Samples for VOCs were collected using an evacuated (i.e. Summa) canister supplied by Columbia
Analytical Services (CAS). A flow controller was added to collect the samples at a low flow rate for a 24
hour time span. The samples were shipped to CAS and analyzed using a GUMS according to the EPA
method TO -15.
Particulates (PM10)
Particle measurements were made for 24 -hours in the same areas as the VOC sampling (noted above
section) using a TSI Sidepak model Aerosol Monitor. This monitor uses a 90° light scattering
measurement to continuously determine airborne particle concentrations. The analytical range of this
instrument is 1.0 to 10,000 pg /m3, for particles 10.0 pm aerodynamic diameter and less (PM -10).
Instrument is factory calibrated to Al test dust (i.e., Arizona test dust). Results are measured
gravimetrically as micrograms per cubic meter (Ng /m3) and data - logged for download and analysis.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: (continued)
On December 5, 2006, the City Council approved a Professional Service Agreement with RRM
Design Group to provide architectural design services for the replacement of the existing Fire
Station. On February 19, 2007, the City Council approved a professional service agreement
with Bernard's for the construction management of the new station.
The design consultant, RRM Design Group, has completed the plans and specifications
according to the direction provided by City Council. Staff is ready to advertise the project for
construction bids. The bid documents will request bid prices for both the work directed by City
Council (Base Bid) and the work removed (Deductive Alternative Items) to provide flexibility to
add recommended work if bid comes in low or if additional funding is identified.
The plans and specifications are available for review at the Public Works Department Counter
in City Hall.

Background and Discussion (continued):
In November 2006, the Council approved the Downtown Committee's initial work plan. One
element of the program called for Ryder Communications (formerly City Adworks) to
provide creative services for re- positioning and branding Downtown El Segundo for fees
and expense of $36,000. Ryder Communications completed deliverables including re-
branding elements (i.e. logo and tagline), developed artwork for downtown advertising and
promotion (i.e. Downtown Guide) and created preliminary designs for light -pole banners
and gateway entry signage elements (gateway monument sign, gateway pylon sign,
gateway arch).
Additionally, the Downtown Committee continues to work with staff on a new downtown
retail business recruitment proposal, as well as an implementation and funding plan for the
previously City Council discussed downtown gateway signage and archway elements.
It is the Downtown Committee's recommendation that the City Council 1) Approve the
recommended light -pole banner designs and authorize funding for final banner design and
fabrication; 2) Request the Downtown Committee develop a plan for downtown wayfinding
signage designs and placement and report back to City Council with recommendations; 3)
Authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement, in a form as
approved by the City Attorney, with Ryder Communications (formerly City Adworks) in an
amount not to exceed $28,000 to develop /fabricate banner signage and provide creative
services for a wayfinding signage program; and 4) Approve a pilot LED parkway decorative
lighting project along the 300 block of Main Street and authorize funding in the amount of
$5,000.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Committees, Commissions and Boards
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding the approval of a Professional Services
Agreement with Utility Cost Management (UCM) to investigate whether the appropriate rate
structure has been applied to the City's electricity and gas use. (Fiscal Impact: None)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement in a form as
approved by the City Attorney with Utility Cost Management (UCM); (2) Alternatively, discuss
and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
At the January 15, 2008 City Council meeting, the Mayor and City Council adopted the
Environmental Work Plan. One of the energy and /or cost savings measures identified in the
work plan is to conduct a utility bill analysis for electricity and gas to identify whether the
correct utility rate structure has been applied.
For the past ten years, UCM has analyzed utility rate structures for public agencies in
California under the State of California Utility Bill Auditing Program. UCM analyzes billing
records to identify charges that do not comply with the statutes, cases, regulations and
administrative rulings that govern utility service in California. Since 1997, UCM has secured
over $25 million in refunds and savings for about 550 clients, including schools districts, cities
and state agencies.

Background and Discussion (con't).
UCM is compensated only if they are successful in recovering funds or generating savings for
the City. If the City receives a refund or credit that was identified in the Findings Letter, then
the City will pay UCM 50% of the amount refunded or credited. Under the terms of the
agreement, if future utility savings are identified in the Findings Letter, then the City will pay a
portion of the future savings according to the following formula:
Year 1 - 50% of savings
Year 2 - 40% of savings
Year 3 - 30% of savings
Year 4 — None
The agreement will require UCM to conduct audits of Southern California Edison, and The Gas
Company. The City would retain all future savings retained from UCM's work in year four and
beyond. If no savings or refunds are discovered, UCM receives no compensation.
Staff researched other similar companies that conduct such analysis such as Southern
California Edison, which has a cost — saving program designed to assist cities in becoming
more energy efficient. These programs have monthly fees, or are not designed to identify
existing or past billing errors. Staff found they did not provide the same services as UCM.

THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO AND
UTILITY COST MANAGEMENT, LLC
This AGREEMENT is entered into this 6th day of May, 2008, by and between the CITY OF EL

surcharges or fees) with respect to which CITY:

ii. has received utility service within three years prior to the Effective Date,
iii. receives utility service within one year after the Effective Date, or
iv. has provided UCM with a copy of the utility bill.

"Utility Accounts ". The "Effective Date ", as that term is used above, is the first day
of the calendar month after both UCM and CITY have signed this Agreement.
B. Client to Provide Utility Bills. On or promptly after Client's execution of this
Agreement, Client will provide UCM with a copy of at least one month's utility bills
for all of Client's Utility Accounts.UCM Authorized to Obtain Information on Utility
Accounts. UCM is hereby authorized to obtain and review information relating to the
Utility Accounts.
C. UCM's Findings Letter. UCM will use its best efforts to identify the basis for any
refunds, credits or Future Savings (as defined below) on Client's Utility Accounts.
UCM will send a "Findings Letter" to Client that generally sets forth the basis for any
refunds, credits or Future Savings identified by UCM. UCM shall issue the Findings
Letter within 90 days from the execution of this Agreement. UCM may, from time to
time, supplement or amend its Findings Letter and such supplement or amendment
U�i
will be deemed to have occurred on the date the original Findings Letter was sent to
Client. However, in no event shall the supplement or amendment be made after the
completion date of this Agreement, i.e. May 5, 2011.
D. Steps To Obtain Refunds or Savings. UCM is authorized by the City to take steps to
obtain the refunds, credits or Future Savings identified in the Findings Letter, such
steps may include, but are not limited to, communicating, dealing, and negotiating
with utility providers, and seeking relief from the California Public Utilities
Commission in a complaint proceeding or other proceeding at no cost to the City.
E. Labor, Materials and Equipment Provided By UCM. UCM will, in a professional
manner, furnish all of the labor, technical, administrative, professional and other
personnel, all supplies and materials, equipment, printing, vehicles, transportation,
office space and facilities, and all tests, testing and analyses, calculation, and all other
means whatsoever, except as herein otherwise expressly specified to be furnished by
CITY, necessary or proper to perform and complete the work and provide the
professional services required of UCM by this Agreement.
3. PAYMENTS. CITY will pay UCM for its services as follows:
A. Refunds or Credits. If CITY receives a refund or credit that was identified in the
Findings Letter, then CITY will pay to UCM 50% of the amount refunded or
credited. The amount of the refund or credit for this purpose will include all
amounts refunded or credited (including any portion attributable to interest) for any
overcharges that were incurred by CITY prior to the date that the overcharges no
longer appeared on the City's utility bill. Payment of UCM's compensation is due
within 60 days of the date CITY receives an invoice from UCM.
B. If CITY obtains Future Savings that were identified in the Findings Letter, then
CITY will pay UCM 50% of such Future Savings that accrue during the First -Year

method or procedure. Future Savings will be calculated as the difference between
the amount CITY was billed on its Utility Accounts during the First -Year Savings
Period, Second -Year Savings Period and Third -Year Savings Period, and the amount
that it would have been billed on its Utility Accounts during the First -Year Savings
Period, Second -Year Savings Period, and Third -Year Savings Period if there had
been no change in its billing rate, calculation, method or procedure. The "First -Year
Savings Period" begins on the date that the change in the billing rate, calculation,
method or procedure is first reflected on City's utility bill, and ends one year
thereafter; the Second -Year Savings Period begins upon the end of the First -Year
Savings Period and ends one year thereafter; and the Third -Year Savings Period
begins upon the end of the Second -Year Savings Period and ends one year thereafter.
2 �rjJ
UCM will submit invoices periodically to CITY for payment based on the Future
Savings as they accrue. The invoices will verify (a) that Future Savings have
actually been realized by CITY, and (b) the amount of such Future Savings.
Payment of UCM's invoices is due within 60 days of the date the invoices are
mailed to CITY. The compensation under this subparagraph will not include
compensation for Future Savings that are: (a) the result of a reduction in the amount
of utility usage by CITY, or (b) the result of City's utilization of a different utility
supplier that provides lower cost utility service. UCM understands and agrees that
CITY is not obligated to change its billing rate, calculation, method or procedure or
obtain the Future Savings identified in the Findings Letter.
Under no circumstances will CITY pay UCM unless CITY receives its refunds,
credits, or Future Savings. If no refunds, credits, or Future Savings are recovered or
realized by CITY, then UCM receives no compensation.

regulatory agencies to obtain refunds, credits, and Future Savings that it
identifies. CITY may elect to utilize legal professionals or other persons
to obtain any refund, credit, or Future Savings identified by UCM. Such

obligated to pay UCM as set forth in this Agreement.

interest at a rate of 1.5% per month.

for refunds, credits or Future Savings that were identified in a Findings
Letter that was sent to CITY prior to such termination and are thereafter
obtained by CITY.
iv CITY is not obligated to pay UCM for any refund, credit or Future
Savings received by CITY for which CITY had submitted to the utility
provider a written claim prior to the date of UCM's Findings Letter.
However, CITY is obligated to pay UCM pursuant to this paragraph
whether or not CITY knew of the basis for the refund, credit or Future
Savings prior to the date of UCM's Findings Letter, and whether or not
City's receipt of the refund, credit or Future Savings was the result of
steps taken by UCM.
4. NO WARRANTY; RELEASE OF LIABILITY. CITY acknowledges and agrees that
UCM has made no express or implied representation or warranty that it will identify any
refunds, credits, or Savings. Accordingly, CITY releases UCM from liability, and waives
any claim, relating to any failure by UCM to identify or recover refunds, credits, or Savings
to which CITY may be entitled.

independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which is it
performed. UCM will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other
employers while under contract with CITY. UCM is not an agent or employee of CITY and

work only.

AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action (1) authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement
to accept a grant of $52,483.58 in funding from the California Environmental Protection
Agency (Cal /EPA) under Assembly Bill 1130, that authorizes the El Segundo Fire Department
to develop and implement an aboveground petroleum storage tank inspection program in El
Segundo; and (2) the adopting of a Resolution authorizing the implementation of an above
ground storage tank inspection program within El Segundo.
(Fiscal Impact: $52,483.58)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement to accept a grant of $52,483.58 in
funds from the Cal /EPA to develop and implement an aboveground petroleum storage tank
inspection program; 2) Adopt a Resolution authorizing the implementation of an aboveground
storage tank inspection program within El Segundo; 3) Alternatively, discuss and take other
action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
On October 13, 2007, Assembly Bill 1130 was chaptered, authorizing Certified Unified
Program Agencies (CUPA) to regulate aboveground petroleum storage tanks. The purpose of
regulating these aboveground storage tanks is to protect the environment from accidental
spills of petroleum products, which would impact surface and ground water resources.
(Continued next page)
ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1) Cal /EPA Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act (APSA) Grant Agreement
2) Resolution authorizing City Manager to enter into an agreement with State of California for
expenditure of grant funds to implement Aboveground Petroleum Storage Tank Act.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION, continued:
The El Segundo Fire Department is a CUPA and currently inspects facilities that have
aboveground storage tanks. Each facility is checked to ensure they have a Spill Prevention
Control and Counter - Measure plan in place. Assembly Bill 1130 requires CUPAs to perform
additional inspection elements, elements which were previously performed by the State Water
Resources Control Board. Recognizing there would be costs associated with these additional
requirements, Cal /EPA has encumbered a minimum of $40,000 for each CUPA in the State to
develop and implement a program for the inspection of aboveground petroleum storage tanks,
in conjunction with its regular inspections.
To sustain and ensure continuity of this program, the statute allows for the collection of
revenues by the CUPA beginning January 1, 2010.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding adoption of a Resolution to implement a salary
range increase for the position of Emergency Services Coordinator in the 2007/08 Fiscal Year
Operating Budget. (Fiscal Impact $6,100)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Adopt the Resolution establishing a basic monthly salary range increase for the job
classification of Emergency Services Coordinator; 2) Alternatively, discuss and take other
action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
In May of 2006, staff conducted an evaluation of the salary range for the position of
Emergency Services Coordinator in response to a request for a reclassification review that was
initiated by the Emergency Services Coordinator in place at the time. Staff sought to establish
a salary mean amongst survey cities with the intention of providing compensation for the
position at roughly 5% above the mean. Staff's evaluation found that there was an absence of
a reasonable number of similar positions within survey cities from which to develop an
appropriate salary mean. The City's past practice in these instances has been to "benchmark"
the position being studied with that which is most similar to the El Segundo position. In this
case, staff found that the Emergency Services Coordinator position in the City of Torrance
served as a sound benchmark. At the time, the salaries were within $12 of one another.
Recently, the salary range for the position in Torrance was increased. Staff continues to
believe that the position in Torrance is an appropriate benchmark for the position in El
Segundo.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT May 6, 2008 Page 2
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (cont)
Based on City records, the fees for various entitlements and permits have not been
reviewed since the mid 1990's. It is important that the City periodically review its fee
structure to insure that the fees are appropriate with the services that the City provides.
The City's primary objective in this effort is to prepare a comprehensive report that
includes legal requirements as well as an analytical approach to the cost allocation
process, and the preparation of a user fee study in order to recommend an appropriate fee
to be charged for each service provided by the City. In addition, the resulting methodology
used by the consultant must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and
regulations.
Upon receipt of the requested bids, staff conducted a review of each proposal submitted.
That review included the participation of an interview panel consisting of staff from
Finance, Building Safety, and Planning.
The following firms have responded to the RFP request. They are as follows;
1. Revenue & Costs Specialist, LLC. $ 24,000
2. Muni - financial $ 53,000
Staff reviewed the submitted bid proposals based on technical expertise, familiarity with
the City, knowledge of rules and regulations, experience with other comparable local
agencies, costs, and presentation. In addition, staff conducted after - interview reference
checks as listed in the bid proposals. Based on the review of the bids submitted, both
Muni - financial and Revenue & Costs Specialist were very qualified to perform the study.
However, based on RFP criteria and the particular needs of El Segundo, the staff has
determined that Revenue & Costs Specialist, LLC will provide the best overall program for
preparation of the Cost Allocation and User Fee Study.
Upon approval, staff will work with the consultant in the preparation of the Cost Allocation
and Fee Study and present a final draft for City Council consideration at a future date.
Staff anticipates a final draft of the study by July 30, 2008.
Recommendation
Staff therefore recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to sign a
professional services agreement approved as to form by the city attorney with Revenue &
Costs Specialist, LLC to provide a Cost Allocation and User Fee Study updating the
development fees (Planning, Building, Plan Check, and Public Works Fees).

SECTION 1 - SPECIFICATIONS
A. INTRODUCTION
The City of El Segundo requests proposals for a Cost Allocation & User Fee Study. The
scope of work detail for this project is described in this RFP. The resulting methodology
for all fees must comply with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.
B. BACKGROUND
The City of El Segundo is located 14 miles southwest of Downtown Los Angeles,
adjacent to the Los Angeles International Airport. The City was incorporated January
18, 1917, as a general law city, with the Standard Oil Company of California refinery as
the major industrial taxpayer and employer. The substantial petroleum base of the local
economy remains evident, although the defense industry emerged as a major segment
during World War II. Aerospace experienced rapid growth during the early 1980's and
accounted for a significant share of El Segundo's industrial growth during those years.
The available commercial /industrial space is now attracting new business -to- business
retail and services segments and is providing new opportunities to diversify and
enhance the revenue sources of the City.
With a daytime population estimated at 70,000 persons, El Segundo is an employment
center of regional and statewide significance. Many geographic and regional aspects
contribute to the City's appeal to the business community. The City borders the Century
Freeway (105) on the north and the San Diego Freeway (405) on the east, both of
which provide linkages to the other major freeways traveling north, south and east.
Additionally, the city is adjacent to the Los Angeles International Airport and is within 15
miles of the Port of Los Angeles.
The City operates many community facilities including one Police Station, one Public
Safety Communications Center, and two Fire Stations. In addition, the City provides the
following facilities: one main library; the Joslyn Senior Center; the Teen Center; the
Lakes at El Segundo golf course; and fourteen parks, including Recreation Park, the
largest in the City, which houses the George E. Gordon Clubhouse, Teen Center, and
Joslyn Center where the majority of recreation classes and activities are held.
The City has a Council- Manager form of government, with five Council members and a
City Manager. Members of the City Council are elected to alternating four -year terms.
Other elected positions include the City Clerk and City Treasurer, both of whom also
serve four -year terms. The City government is operated on a Civil Service system of
merit appointments and promotions. The positions of City Manager and City Attorney
are appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the City Council. Department Heads are
appointed by and serve at the will of the City Manager. All other positions are filled by
appointment, based on structured, competitive examinations. Currently, the City has
358 authorized full -time and full -time equivalent positions, which provide all municipal
2008 -02 -22 RFP for Cost Allocation & User Fee Study Consulting Services.doc PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 4
services including Administrative Support Services, Planning and Building Safety,
Police, Fire, Recreation and Parks, Library, Cable, and Public Works.
For Fiscal Year 2007/2008 El Segundo has an operating budget of $105.1 million
across all funds. The General Fund, which includes public safety, library, recreation
and parks, planning and other functions, makes up $55.3 million of the total. While City
operations generate revenue from various public services such as permitting and
recreational activities, the three primary sources of revenue for the General Fund are
from taxes: sales tax ($26.5 million); business tax ($9.2 million); and property tax ($5.8
million). The balance of the budget is attributed to funds for miscellaneous services and
grants.

citywide user fee /rate analysis, calculations for the full cost of each current or potential
user fee, and recommendation for the appropriate fee to be charged for each service.

based stand -alone program to calculate the full- business cost of all current fee and potential fee
services within the following areas:
• All Planning Fees
• All Building Permits
• All Plan Check Fees
• All Work in the Public Right -of -Way
This process will include all of the above services in the following departments:

WORK PLAN
Cost Allocation
IRCS proposes to follow the following outline of the major steps and milestones in the process:
Identify Subpools and Allocate Staff Time
Identify Subpools for indirect departments and allocate staff time and costs to those
subpools. City staff time would be approximately 1 -2 hours per department in this process
and would need to meet with consultant to establish subpool listing, quantify department
staff time involved in those subpools, and review the results.
Develop Allocation Factors
Identify and review index of methods of allocation for each subpool identified. It is this
index which wil l form the basis for allocation of the costs. City staff time could vary widely _
_. depcnding,on the- availabiWo€ the-- data-whidrvilMrm -the basis bf the index. For
example, if the number of departmental charges is the basis for spreading the Accounts
Payable function, and City staff has that information readily available, then staff time will
be minimal. Therefore, City staff involvement for data gathering is a function of the
availability of this required information.
Review Results with Departments
Calculate allocations to the functional centers and review the results with the managers of
the various indirect departments. City staff time for this process will be 1 -2 hours per
department to review the results of the allocations.
Prepare Draft Cost Allocation Plan and Review with City Staff
Make any changes and prepare a Draft Report with allocations to end user departments. RCS
will review this Draft Report with the City's management group and make any necessary
adjustments.
Prepare Final Cost Allocation Plan
Make any changes and prepare a Final Report with allocations to end user departments. If
requested, RCS will make a presentation to the City Council to assist in their understanding
of the cost allocation process and its results.

WORK PLAN
a U r ee d
Stu v
RCS proposes to follow the following outline of the major steps and milestones in the process:
Kick -off Meeting
Conduct a meeting with City staff explaining the operational methodology of the study and
the role of City staff. We will work with City staff to determine the calculation method that
the City wants, and is allowed, to use. For instance, for Building Permits we could determine
that we want to continue to use valuation for Building Plan Check and Inspection, but cost
out the various permits for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing individually. The end
result, whichever method is utilized, will be a fee structure that best fits the City of El
Segundo.
Determine Staff Time Allocations
Interview personnel providing "end- user" services to insure that costs from all functional
areas directly involved with a service are included in the cost of that service. This
component will form the bulk of the time spent by staff. There will be two to four meetings
with supervisory level staff in each functional area to create and verify the amount of time
spent by staff on the services identified in the step above. We do not ask City staff to do our
job by filling out forms detailing where they spend their time. This iterative process, and
the fact that we allocate 100% of all departmentaI staff, allows everyone to insure that
the information being generated is valid and reliable.
Develop Fully Allocated Hourly Rates
Develop a fully allocated hourly rate for the calculation of each departmental employee,
including salaries and benefits, miscellaneous operating service and supply costs, overhead
costs from the above Cost Allocation Plan, debt service, and other direct costs as identified,
which can be used for all charging and costing processes.
Prepare Draft Report
Prepare a draft report that identifies the total costs for each service, the current fees, and
makes fee recommendations for each service presented. RCS will review this drift report
with the departments, so that each department will have final input on the fees presented in
the final report.
4
City of EI Segundo - Cost Allocation & User Fee Study Proposal
Prepare Final Report
Based on staff input, prepare a final report, which will have recommendations for new fees
and subsidy percentages and projections of new revenues from those fees. All recommended
fees will be in compliance with Propositions 4 and 218 and any other applicable laws.
fPresent Report to the City Council
Assist the City Council in the review and adoption of revised service fees and subsidy
percentages and assist the staff in the implementation of the revised service fees at up to two
meetings.

SOFTWARE
RCS has developed a unique and sophisticated Windows -based stand -alone software package that
is both user friendly and comprehensive at the same time. The navigation between modules is clear
and easily understood while the mechanisms for inputting data is not contrived and duplicative.
Once a number is put into the system no further adjustments are necessary. The system is based on
an easily downloaded package. It is not a spreadsheet based format, but uniquely designed for
municipal City purposes in determining cost allocations and service costs. This is the software that
will be turned over to the City at the conclusion of the project and training provide at t t time.
This will allow the City to continuously update the Cost Allocation and User Fee Studies, as well
as input hypothetical services to calculate the estimated costs of providing new services.
Additionally, RCS commits as a film to making our clients independent of consultants for updating
the results of our reports. We have an active user group, an active group of City staffresponsible for
updating their service costs, and RCS has committed to its user group that any improvements in our
software will be provided at no additional cost to our licensed users.
- A demonstration of the software can be downloaded at www.costallocation.com.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding the award of a Standard Public Works Contract to
Shawl ndustries Inc. for the installation of new carpet at the Park Vista Senior Apartments (615
E. Holly Avenue) in the amount of $73,415.73 and The Lakes Golf Course (400 S. Sepulveda
Boulevard) in the amount of $19,738.95 (Fiscal Impact: $93,154.68).
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Authorize the City Manager to execute a Standard Public Works Contract in a form as
approved by the City Attorney with Shaw Industries Inc. in the amount of $93,154.68; (2)
Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The existing carpet at Park Vista Senior Apartments is worn and requires replacement.
Replacement of the carpet is scheduled and budgeted through the Park Vista Senior Housing
operating budget. The carpet at The Lakes Golf Course is also scheduled for replacement with
funding provided by the golf course enterprise fund. Staff recommends piggybacking onto the
State of California Contract No. 4- 97- 72 -0008A with Shaw Industries Inc. for purchase of
carpeting at both of these facilities.
The State contract was secured through a competitive bid process, and other public agencies
can piggyback onto the contract to take advantage of competitive pricing. City Council recently
approved a similar piggyback contract for re- carpeting of the City Library (2006) and Joslyn
Center (2007).

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action authorizing the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of
Agreement (in a form as approved by the City Attorney) with the City of Los Angeles for
Monitoring Services to test for bacteria at shoreline storm drain outlets. Testing is required to
comply with California's Regional Water Quality Control Board storm water regulations. (Fiscal
Impact: $2,100)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Authorize the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) in a form
as approved by the City Attorney with the City of Los Angeles for Monitoring Services; (2)
Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
In 2002 the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) adopted Resolutions No. 2002-
004 and No. 2002 -022 establishing dry and wet weather Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
limits (respectively) for bacteria discharged to Santa Monica Bay beaches. These TMDLs were
incorporated into the MS4 Permit (NPDES Permit) readopted on December 13, 2001.
Currently, the County and several public agencies covered under the MS4 Permit, including El
Segundo, must test for bacteria at beach storm drain outlets to assure that TMDL limits are not
exceeded.
This MOA allows El Segundo to contract with the City of Los Angeles, an agency which has
the capabilities, expertise and equipment to perform the required bacteria testing.

http:// dpw. lacounty. gov/ wmd /NPDES/beachplan/Contents.pdf.
ARTICLE II— Responsibilities of Los Angeles
1. Monitoring — Los Angeles will perform Monitoring Services at locations as indicated in
Exhibit A on behalf of E1 Segundo. Performance of Monitoring Services by Los Angeles
at locations listed in Exhibit A is expressly conditioned upon all Participating
Municipalities listed in Exhibit A entering into monitoring services agreements with Los
Angeles for the performance of Monitoring Services. Los Angeles will not be obligated
to perform Monitoring Services, and El Segundo will not be obligated to pay Los
3 _
�U�
Angeles for such Monitoring Services until said condition is satisfied. If Los Angeles
does not obtain similar agreements with all Participating Municipalities in order to
perform Monitoring Services at locations listed in Exhibit A that will be consistent with
the timeframes set forth in the Monitoring Plan and the Bacteria TMDLs, El Segundo
may seek to have the Monitoring Services performed by another entity.
2. Cost per monitoring location — Los Angeles, in consultation with the Participating
Municipalities, established each Municipality's share of cost for the Monitoring Services.
The cost allocation percentages among Participating Municipalities and the estimated
cost for each monitoring location are shown in Exhibit A.
3. Reports — Los Angeles will submit monitoring reports to RWQCB each month and
forward a copy to El Segundo as described in the Monitoring Plan.
4. Exceedances — Los Angeles will conduct accelerated monitoring according to existing
Los Angeles County Department of Health Services protocol at each location where
exceedance is detected. Exceedance will be determined according to the Monitoring Plan.
Los Angeles will provide additional accelerated monitoring at the request of El Segundo.
This MOA does not include any research or investigation of the reason(s) or source(s)
that caused the exceedance.
ARTICLE III — Responsibilities of El Segundo
1. Documentations — El Segundo agrees to provide all readily available information and
documentation to Los Angeles that is deemed necessary to perform the Monitoring
Services at no cost to Los Angeles.
2. Grant of Access Rights — During the term of this MOA, E1 Segundo hereby grants to
Los Angeles the right of access and entry to, but not limited to, all storm drains, channels,
creeks, beaches, and existing monitoring stations at beaches subject to this MOA at all
reasonable times for the purpose of performing the duties and obligations described in
this MOA.
3. Cost Reimbursement — El Segundo agrees to reimburse Los Angeles for the amount as
shown in Exhibit B annually for the systematic weekly monitoring and accelerated
monitoring.
ARTICLE IV — Invoice and Payment
1. Annual Payment — El Segundo shall reimburse Los Angeles an amount as shown in
Exhibit B annually to cover the systematic weekly and accelerated monitoring services
performed by Los Angeles. The Annual Payment shall be increased by the Consumer
4

estimate only; the actual cost of the accelerated monitoring will be reconciled with the
next Annual Payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Annual Payment shall be
revised only upon mutual consent of both parties in writing.
2. Invoice — Los Angeles will invoice El Segundo for the annual payment in January of
each calendar year, beginning January 2009 for that fiscal year (July 1 to June 30). El
Segundo shall pay the invoice within 45 days of its receipt from Los Angeles.
3. Late Payment Penalty — Any payment that is late shall be subject to interest on the
original amount due from the date that the payment first became due. The interest rate
shall be equal to the Prime Rate in effect when the payment first became due plus one
percent for any payment that is made from 1 to 30 days after the due date. The Prime
Rate in effect when the payment first became due plus five (5) percent shall apply for any
payment that is made from 31 to 60 days after the due date. The Prime Rate in effect
when the payment first became due plus ten (10) percent shall apply for any payment that
is made more than 60 days after the due date. The rates shall, nevertheless, not exceed
the maximum allowed by law.
ARTICLE V — Term of MOA
1. The term of this MOA shall begin upon all Participating Municipalities listed in Exhibit
A entering into monitoring services agreements with Los Angeles for the performance of
Monitoring Services and shall terminate on June 30, 2009. During the unexpired term of
this MOA, either Party may demand that the other Party negotiate, in good faith,
modifications to the MOA that may be reasonably necessary because of any of the
following changed circumstances:
A. There is a material change in the regulatory framework for stormwater and
urban runoffs; or
B. There is a proposed change, either addition or deletion of monitoring
locations, tests and frequency of tests; or
C. There is a material change in the cost of providing monitoring in the
approved locations
2. This MOA shall continue on a month to month basis after the expiration date as stated in
Article V, Section 1 above until either El Segundo requests Los Angeles in writing to
cease the Monitoring Services on behalf of El Segundo or a new MOA is executed for
employing Los Angeles to perform Monitoring Services on behalf of El Segundo, but not
5 3OJ
to exceed twelve (12) months. The cost for the monthly monitoring shall be one twelfth
of the annual cost.
ARTICLE VI — General Provisions
1. Notices — Any notices, bills, invoices, or reports relating to this MOA, and any request,
demand, statement or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be delivered to the Representative of the Party at the addresses set forth
below. Parties shall promptly notify each other of any change of contact information

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding approval of a resolution of the City Council
authorizing the City Manager or designee to authorize the County of Los Angeles to act on the
City's behalf to apply for, receive, and appropriate grant funds from the California Integrated
Waste Management Board for the 14th Cycle Used Oil Block Grant. (Fiscal Impact: None)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Adopt the attached Resolution and (2) Authorize the Mayor to sign the Resolution;
(3) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) Used Oil Recycling Program
develops and promotes safe alternatives to the illegal disposal of used oil. Through a Used Oil
Recycling Block Grant, funding is available to California cities and counties to establish used
oil collection sites and promote the proper disposal of used oil.
To be eligible for funding, a jurisdiction must establish a used oil collection site within its
boundaries. Collection sites can include service garages, automobile parts retailers, and
service station with facilities to accept and store used oil. Currently, there are no such facilities
in El Segundo.

.i�U
Background and Discussion (con't):
For several years, a service station in El Segundo was certified as a used oil collection site.
The station had a garage and was able to accept used oil from residents, particularly on
weekends. In 2003, the station eliminated the garage's weekend hours and ultimately
discontinued used oil collection. Staff attempted to establish a new collection site with no
success. The City's unique demographics coupled with the grant requirements has made it
difficult to establish a new site within city limits.
El Segundo residents do have several regional options to recycle oil: 1) Los Angeles County,
household hazardous waste collections events, which are held periodically in El Segundo and
neighboring cities; 2) permanent collection sites in neighboring cities ( i.e., Pep Boys, EZ
Lube); and 3) the City of Los Angeles household hazardous waste collection center at
Hyperion, which is open on weekends.
The County of Los Angeles is the Regional Lead for Used Oil Block Grants in Southern
California. The CIW MB recommends that the City of El Segundo become a regional participant
given that the City is unable to participate at a local level. The City can authorize the County of
Los Angeles to act on its behalf and use the funding for the regional program to reimburse
collection sites for costs associated with storing and disposing of used oil. Additionally,
regional participation as opposed to no participation in the Used Oil Recycling Program will
enable the City to continue complying with storm water pollution prevention programs.
i �
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER, OR DESIGNEE,
TO AUTHORIZE THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES TO ACT ON ITS
BEHALF AND APPLY FOR, RECEIVE, AND APPROPRIATE GRANT
FUNDS FOR THE 200812009 USED OIL RECYCLING BLOCK GRANT
FUNDING (14'h CYCLE) PURSUANT TO 14 CODE OF CALIFORNIA
REGULATIONS § 18659.1.
The City Council of the City of El Segundo does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. In accordance with Public Resources Code § 48653, the City seeks to
implement a used oil collection program. Among other things, the program helps
prevent illegal and environmentally damaging disposal of used oil for the Fiscal
Year 2008/2009 cycle.
B. The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) is
responsible for administering the grant and, if awarded, will enter into a Grant
Agreement with the County of Los Angeles for use of the funds.
C. The funds may be used for any activities that establish or enhance
permanent, sustainable used oil recycling programs. Staff plans to utilize the
2008/2009 funds to continue ongoing Household Hazardous Waste Collection
Programs, specifically the ongoing used oil and oil filter drop -off locations at local
businesses.
SECTION 2: The City Manager, or his designee, is authorized to request that the
County of Los Angeles submit a regional participant application to the California
Integrated Waste Management Board for the Used Oil Recycling Block Grant on it's the
City's behalf for approximately $5,000 in accordance with 14 Code of California
Regulations § 18659.1 and any related statute or regulation.
SECTION 3: The City Manager, or designee, is authorized to execute any required
documents to receive the grant for the purposes identified herein.
SECTION 4: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding approval of an annual purchase order to Blue
Diamond Materials, a division of Sully Miller Contracting Company on a single- source basis to
supply asphalt paving materials for Street Maintenance Division projects. (Fiscal Impact:
$35,000)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Authorize the issuance of a blanket purchase order to Blue Diamond Materials, a division
of Sully Miller Contracting Company on a single- source basis in an amount not to exceed
$35,000 for the purchase of asphalt paving materials for Street Maintenance Division projects;
(2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The Street Maintenance Division repairs approximately 50,000 square feet of pavement
annually. Pavement repair work includes potholes, pavement failures, repairs from tree root
damage and utility cuts, general street repairs throughout the City and preparation for slurry
seal projects. Through the Fiscal Year 2007 -2008 budget process, $35,000 was budgeted for
the annual expenditure of asphalt paving materials.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued)
Street Maintenance Division personnel drive a City dump truck to retrieve asphalt paving
materials. There are three local vendors that supply the materials.

Pricing for asphalt paving materials is variable and dependent upon the oil and aggregate
market. The pricing for asphalt concrete in the table above was based on a spot market quote
on March 19, 2008.
Staff recommends continuing the purchase or asphalt paving materials from Blue Diamond
Materials, on a single- source basis, in an amount not to exceed $35,000 for the following
reasons:
1. Closer proximity to City reduces staff driving time, fuel and liability
2. Availability of materials — two locations
3. Lower cost of materials
At this time, Blue Diamond Materials is the more reasonable choice based upon pricing,
proximity and availability. Staff will continue to monitor asphalt concrete prices and return to
Council if a change in vendors is warranted.

works contracts, changes to the scope of work that exceed 25% of the original contract price
requires an amendment to the contract.
The Lakes Golf Course
The original contract for this facility included painting of the hallway ceilings and walls only at
the Restaurant, the Shop and the Banquet room. An additional $5,850.00 is requested to
paint all doors, windows, moldings and the baseboards in the golf course building. Funding is
available from the golf course bond refinancing.
The El Segundo Police Department
The original contract included painting the Jail only. Additional painting work is needed in the
following areas of the Police Station:
Pistol Range
$3,750.00
148 door jams, 15 doors, 39 window frames, one corridor and
$9,545.00
two (2) stairway railings.
Interior offices including three (3) bathroom, the briefing room,
$7,650.00
and two walls.
Funds are available from the Facility Maintenance budget for FY 2007/08.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE:May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action to adopt a resolution which authorizes the City Manager to
direct award a public works contract to Republic Intelligent Transportation Services based
upon the recent competitive bid process conducted by the City of Los Alamitos for similar
services. The project includes installing and maintaining 996 Lighting Emitting Diode (LEDs)
lamps which will replace existing incandescent traffic signal bulbs. (Fiscal Impact: $151,343)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Adopt the attached Resolution to authorize a contract award to Republic Intelligent
Transportation without the need for a competitive bid process; (2) Authorize the City Manager
to execute a standard public works contract; (3) Alternatively, discuss and take other action
related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The LED retrofit of City traffic lamps project is funded in the current fiscal year Capital
Improvement Program budget. Public Works and Engineering Staff conducted an evaluation
on all intersections within the city limits. Presently, the city has 1,271 traffic lamps, of which
275 have been retrofitted to LEDs, thus leaving 996 incandescent lamps to be replaced with
LEDs. LED lights consume roughly 90% less power than incandescent lamps. Their energy
use is 8 -25 Watts, depending on size and color, compared to a range of roughly 67 -150
Watts for incandescent lamps. LED lights also look brighter and last much longer.

Background and Discussion (cont'd):
The City of Los Alamitos recently conducted a substantially similar competitive bid process
and awarded a contract to Republic Intelligent Transportation Services for equipment virtually
identical to El Segundo needs. As a result, staff requests the City Council adopt the attached
resolution, which makes certain findings (including to preserve the City's design immunities)
allowing the City to "piggyback" on the competitively priced City of Los Alamitos traffic signal
retrofit contract with Republic Intelligent Transportation Services.
The total project cost for all of the listed intersections (including installation and sales tax) is
$151,343. Southern California Edison is authorized to provide rebates to Cities for retrofitting
traffic signals with Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), although the funding for such projects is
limited as well as time and criteria sensitive. The rebate amount requested by the City El
Segundo from Southern California Edison is $18,940.
The annual kilowatt savings from upgrading the traffic signals to LED's is estimated to be
378,768 kWh, resulting in an estimated first year cost savings of $45,346, based on an
electricity cost of $0.12 per kWh. The savings by year estimated below assume no increase in
the cost of electricity. If cost increases, the savings increase proportionally.
There is also a maintenance cost savings that results from the longer life expectancy for LED
bulbs relative to incandescent bulbs. While more difficult to quantify, estimates are made by
LED bulb vendors based on industry- averaged maintenance rates assuming each
incandescent bulb needs to be replaced each year. These rough estimates for maintenance
savings (based on LED bulbs having a 5 -7 year lifetime) are included below.

resulting from both energy and maintenance savings, is 1.59 years

Page 3 of 8 j
above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal
injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be
endorsed to name City, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under
said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary"
such that any other insurance that may be carried by City will be excess thereto.
Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will
not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to City.
C. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA

required by this Agreement, City may obtain such coverage at CONTRACTOR's
expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to

A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE AWARD OF A PUBLIC WORKS
CONTRACT PURSUANT TO PUBLIC CONTRACTS CODE §10340 (b)
(3) AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A
CONTRACT WITH REPUBLIC INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION
SERVICES WITHOUT THE NEED FOR COMPETITIVE BIDDING AS
OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY THE PUBLIC CONTRACTS CODE.
The City Council of the City of El Segundo does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. On May 6, 2008, the City received a proposal by Republic Intelligent
Transportation Services (the "Contractor') to install Lighting Emitting
Diodes (LEDs) and maintenance (the "Project ");
B. Public Contracts Code §10340 (b) (3) allows the City to utilize competitive
bids from other local governments;
C. The City of Los Alamitos has an existing contract for the same purposes
that was publicly bid as set forth in the Public Contracts Code;
D. Ordinarily, the City would need to comply with the competitive bidding
requirements set forth in the Public Contracts Code related to public works
contracts for this type of project;
E. The purpose of such bidding requirements is to guard against favoritism,
improvidence, extravagance, fraud and corruption, to prevent waste of public
funds, and to obtain the best economic result for the public;
F. The facts and circumstances of this Project, however, demonstrate that
competitive bids would be unavailing or would not produce an advantage,
and the advertisement for competitive bid would thus be undesirable and
impractical for the following reasons:
The cost of the bidding would deter from the benefits received by
the City for the project;
2. The time would be expended for bidding;
3. The funding for such project is limited, and is time and criteria
sensitive; and
4. To complete the Project, Contractor will still be required to comply
with the City's standard contract requirements.
G. In waiving the competitive bid requirements otherwise required by the
ESMC, and Public Contract Code the City Council takes note of the

H. The City Engineer designed the Project and prepared the Project's plans
and specifications. The plans are now complete and the Project may be
constructed; and
The City Council wishes to obtain the immunities set forth in Government
Code § 830.6 with regard to the plans and construction of the Project.
SECTION 2: Design Immunity.
A. The design and plans for the Project are determined to be consistent with
the City's standards and are approved.
B. The design approval set forth in this Resolution occurred before actual
work on the Project construction commenced.
C. The approval granted by this Resolution conforms with the City's General
Plan.
D. The approval and authorization granted by this Resolution is intended to
avail the City of the immunities set forth in Government Code § 830.6.
SECTION 3: Authorizations.
A. The City Engineer, or designee, is authorized to act on the City's behalf in
approving any alterations or modifications of the design and plans
approved by this Resolution.
B. The City Manager is authorized to execute a contract with Contractor for
construction of the Project in a form approved by the City Attorney.

the terms hereunder accrued and unpaid as of the date of termination.
11. The specified compensation will stay in effect for the duration of this contract.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Consent
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding awarding a contract in an amount not to exceed
$186,607 to L3 Communications to provide and install mobile, digital, video recording devices
in all patrol cars and motorcycles, as well as all related equipment, a computer server, wireless
data transfer hardware, and data management software necessary to support the system and
other digital media evidence created by the police department. Fiscal impact: $186,607 — paid
from available COPS Grant and Developer Fees.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Award the contract from RFP 08 -01 to the lowest responsive bidder, L3 Communications,
and approve the purchase and installation for an in -car digital video system and digital
evidence management system.
2) Alternatively discuss and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The Police Department will soon be requesting to replace its fleet of patrol cars. Currently each
such car has a VHS video recording system. Though that system has provided approximately
eight years of mostly acceptable performance, it has become outdated, sometimes unreliable,
and cumbersome to store and manage.
Staff researched current technologies for in -car video equipment and learned the new digital
mobile camera systems include capabilities for wireless video data transfer and automatic
media evidence storage. That research also lead to the recommendation we expand our
proposal to include a system which will store, organize and manage all digital evidence
including digital video, still photographs, and audio recordings.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (continued):
This newer technology will provide a higher quality picture and sound as well as expedite
locating and duplicating evidence for court and other purposes (as was done 51 times in a
recent two month period). It will also eliminate the need to store hundreds of VHS tapes.
The expansion of this project will include a large server to manage all digital evidence,
including video from in car cameras as well as other data such as still photographs taken by
officers and CST's, audio tape recordings, and taser use videos.
On January 14, 2008, staff released RFP 08 -01 to seven vendors requesting bids for an in -car
digital video system and digital evidence solution. On January 29, 2008, the City Clerk
received and opened the following bids:
• Digital Ally, Inc. $69,720 - Did not meet RFP requirements
• Integrian, Inc. $222,736
• L3 Communications, Inc. $186,607
Staff reviewed the proposals submitted and determined Digital Ally did not meet the
requirements for storage and wireless transfer of video and information. Additionally, the
system proposal is incapable of recording multiple cameras simultaneously.
Integrian's proposal met the specifications of the RFP but would have to design a motorcycle
camera mounting device, which they have not done before. The total cost of their proposal
was $222,736.
The proposal submitted by L3 Communications met all the requirements of the RFP. The cost
for L3 Communication's complete system, installed, including tax is $186,607.
Based on the review of the proposals submitted, including an evaluation and assessment by
the IT Department and Technology Committee, Staff recommends award of this contract to the
lowest responsive bidder, L3 Communications, in an amount not to exceed $186,607.
It should be noted that on February 20, 2007, City Council approved the use of $314,000 from
the COPS Grant account to fund various projects and replace identified equipment, including
the VHS in -car camera system. In order that all of the approved projects may be
accomplished, it is proposed that this purchase be supplemented with $49,394 from currently
available developer's fees.
The in -car digital video system and digital evidence management system should be placed into
the City's equipment replacement program with a five -year service life span.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Mayor Pro Tem Busch
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration of possible action to adopt a resolution supporting SB 1722 ( Oropeza), a bill
creating a Green Line Construction Authority, for the purpose of connecting the Metro Green
Line to Los Angeles International Airport.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
(1) Adopt the attached resolution supporting SB 1722 and authorize legislative advocacy
efforts to promote passage of the bill; (2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to
this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
In 1988 the City Council adopted resolution No. 3514 supporting the extension of the Metro
Green Line and preparation of environmental documents for the extension for the LAX- Marina
segment. In 1994, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA)
approved an EIR /EIS and a Statement of Overriding Considerations to construct a Metro
Green Line Northern Extension to LAX and beyond to Marina del Rey. This alignment was
included in MTA's Long Range Transit Plan (LRTP). Due to subsequent funding constraints
during the 1990s, the extension was never constructed and LAX was never connected into the
regional rail network.
Last year, the City Council adopted resolution No. 4505 supporting AB 889 by Assemblyman
Ted Lieu which would have established a Metro Green Line Construction Authority. Said
authority was for the purpose of awarding and overseeing final design and construction
contracts for completion of the coastal extension of the Green Line including an initial segment
to the Los Angeles International Airport. AB889 failed to pass out of committee. Senator Jenny
Oropeza has since taken up the legislative lead for the Green Line Extension Coalition by
introducing SB 1722.

RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING SB 1722 (OROPEZA) THAT ESTABLISHES A
CONSTRUCTION AUTHORITY TO EXTEND THE METRO GREEN LINE LIGHT
RAIL SYSTEM INCLUDING AN INITIAL SEGMENT TO LOS ANGELES
INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
The City Council resolves as follows:
Section 1: The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. In 1988 and again in 2007 the City Council adopted resolutions No. 3514
and No. 4505 supporting the extension of the Metro Green Line including
a LAX- Marina segment.
B. The Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is the primary international
traveler's gateway to Southern California, yet it lacks direct rail transit
access for business and recreational travelers. The absence of this crucial
link in the regional transportation system forces travelers into private
automobiles resulting in further congestion on already overburdened
freeway and arterial highway systems.
C. The Metro Green Line system is the only mass transit rail line serving
Gateway and South Bay communities. However, when the Green Line
was constructed in the mid -1990s it was terminated roughly two miles
south of LAX.
D. The Green Line Coalition was established to finally extend the truncated
rail line to LAX airport. The extension would run from the current terminus
at Aviation Blvd. and 1 -105 to stations at Aviation and Century boulevards
and Lincoln and Sepulveda boulevards. Extension of the Green Line to
LAX would help alleviate traffic congestion, reduce air pollution and
provide a convenient alternative to private automobile for LAX travelers
and employees.
SECTION 1: The City Council of the City of El Segundo supports the objectives
of The Green Line Coalition to finish the Metro Green Line by extending it
through LAX thereby providing direct transit access for airport travelers and
employees.
SECTION 2: The City Council of the City of El Segundo supports SB 1722 a bill
to establish a Metro Green Line construction authority to ensure the extension of
the Green Line into LAX.
�x�
SECTION 3: The City Clerk will certify to the passage and adoption of this
Resolution; shall enter the same in the book of original Resolutions of the City;
and shall make a record of proceedings of the City Council in the Minutes of the
Meeting at which same is passed and adopted.
SECTION 4: This Resolution will take effect immediately upon adoption and will
remain effective until repealed or is superseded by subsequent resolutions or by
ordinance.

reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory
provisions.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.

COMMENTS:
1. Purpose . As part of the consent decree signed by the
Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in 1972 to allow
construction of Interstate 105, provisions were made for a
transit corridor (without designating the technology) in
the freeway's median. Local officials selected light rail
tansit technology for the corridor extending from Norwalk
to Redondo Beach. The Original design of the Green Line in
1987 included an extension to LAX. Because the lack of
resolution regarding the nature of the expansion of LAX,
the segment to the airport was removed from the plan. The

to the author, this bill "seeks to begin the process to

of Los Angeles County, the development of two light rail
lines in the county have been transferred to construction
authorities. SB 1847 (Schiff), Chapter 1021, Statues of
1998, created the first construction authority to oversee
the development of the Pasadena Blue Line from Los Angeles
Union Station to east Pasadena. SB 504 (Kuehl), Chapter
827, Statutes of 2003, established a construction authority
for Exposition Metro Line from 7th and Flower in downtown
Los Angeles to Santa Monica.
Legislation similar to this bill, AB 889 (Lieu) of 2007,
which the City of Los Angeles supported, created a Metro
Green Line Construction Authority for the purpose of
overseeing the development of a Green Line extension. In
most respects, AB 889 was similar to this bill. AB 889 was
held in the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
3. Appointing . authority for one board position should be
clarified . The at -large voting member of the governing
board does not have an appointing authority. The committee
may wish to consider an amendment that would require the
remaining four voting members to select the fifth voting
member.
4. Is this bill premature ? LACMTA has not programmed any
funding for the Green Line extension. In fact, LACMTA's
draft 2008 Long Range Transportation Plan , is in Tier 1
Strategic Unfunded Public Transportation Project. This
designation means that the project is a high priority,
regionally significant project for which no funding is
currently avialable and is unlikely to be available during

identified. The previous two construction authorities were
established after the funding was indentified for the
planning, environmental analysis, engineering, design and
construction of the projects.

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 6, 2008
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Mayor McDowell
AGENDA DESCRIPTION: Consideration and possible action to adopt a resolution supporting
AB2780 (Lieu), a local agency protection measure providing that a public entity is not liable for
damages for lost profits if a breach of contract is due to the enactment of a valid initiative.
(Fiscal Impact: None.)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: (1) Adopt the attached resolution supporting AB2780 and
authorize appropriate legislative advocacy to promote passage of the bill; (2) Alternately,
discuss and take other action related to this item.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
At the City Council's April 1 st meeting, action was taken in support of AB2780 a bill authored by
Assemblymember Ted Lieu to address increasingly frequent and persistent problems with our
electric utility and its failure to reasonably provide safe and reliable service. With the
Assemblymember's assistance, concessions and commitments were made by the utility to
address these issues. With these commitments in hand, the bill was deemed to be no longer
necessary, and its author has since rewritten the bill to deal with another local agency issue.
In this instance, the issue is whether a public entity should be held liable for lost profits
damages for a breach of contract, if the breach is caused by the enactment of a valid
initiative? When a public entity cannot possibly meet obligations of a contract due to an
initiative over which it has no control, it is unfair to ask that entity to pay damages for lost
profits. This bill would eliminate "lost profits" as a measure of damage in any case in which a
public entity breaches a contract because of a valid initiative. The bill would apply retroactively
to include contracts entered into before this bill becomes effective if it is enacted. This bill
arises out of ongoing litigation between the City of Hermosa Beach and the Macpherson Oil
Company.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
SUPPORTING AB 2780 (LIEU) A PUBLIC ENTITY PROTECTION BILL
DEALING WITH PUBLIC AGENCY LIABILITY
BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of El Segundo as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds as follows:
A. Public entity liability is an area of deep concern to all local
government agencies;
B. Statutory laws have historically acted to confine and not expand
public entity liability;
C. Court decisions can act to expand public entity liability resulting in
tremendous financial exposure; as in the instance of current on-
going litigation between the City of Hermosa Beach and
Macpherson Oil Company;
D. It is unfair that public entities should be held liable for potential lost
profits damages associated with a breach of contract, as in the
Hermosa Beach case when the breach is caused by the enactment
of a valid initiative.
SECTION 2: The City of El Segundo strongly supports AB 2780 authored by
Assemblymember Ted Lieu to address public entity liability for lost profits
damages for a breach of contract where the breach is caused by passage of a
valid initiative.
SECTION 3: The City Manager is directed and authorized to communicate the
City Council's policy position on this matter to members of the Legislature, the
Governor and administrative agencies as necessary.
SECTION 4: The City Clerk is directed to certify the adoption of this Resolution;

SUBJECT Damages: Lost Profits
KEY ISSUE Should a public entity be held liable for lost
profits damages for A BREACH of contract, if the breach is
caused by the enactment of a valid initiative?
SYNOPSIS
This bill would eliminate "lost profits" as a measure of damage
in any case in which a public entity breaches a contract because
of a valid initiative. The bill would apply retroactively to
include contracts entered into before this bill becomes
effective if it is enacted. This bill arises out of ongoing
litigation between the City of Hermosa Beach and the Macpherson
Oil Company. In 1992 the city and the company entered into a
lease that permitted the company to engage in oil and gas
exploration and production. In 1995, however, the city's voters
adopted Proposition E, a local initiative that prohibited oil
drilling in the city. Although a California Court of Appeals
found that the initiative, as a valid exercise of the police
power, did not unconstitutionally impair the contract, the same
court later held that the City might still be liable for
damages. Recent reports indicate that the oil company is
seeking as much as $500 million dollars, including damages for
lost profits.
According to the author, however, when a public entity cannot
possibly meet the obligations of a contract due to an initiative
over which it had no control - and in fact opposed - it is
unfair to ask that entity to pay damages for lost profits, which
are inherently speculative. The author stresses that this bill
would only prohibit recovery for lost profits; it would not
affect other types of damages for which the public entity would
still be liable. The bill is supported by several individual
cities in Southern California; it is opposed by the California
Independent Petroleum Association, the California Manufacturers
and Technology Association, and the California Chamber of
Commerce on the grounds that it would violate fundamental
contract principles, create more litigation, and retroactively

alter rights in existing contracts.
This analysis suggests that although opponents raise legitimate
concerns about the effect of retroactivity on existing
contracts, they appear to overstate the extent to which this
bill would work a fundamental alteration of contract principles
or leave non - breaching parties without just compensation.
First, this bill only applies in situations in which an
initiative causes the public agency to breach a contract.
Second, in addition to applying only in the rare situation where
an initiative makes it impossible for a public entity to perform
under a contract, the bill is also narrowly focused on lost
profits. It would not. deny a company restitution or reliance
damages.
SUMMARY Provides that a public entity is not liable for
damages for lost profits for breaching a contract, if the breach
of contract was due to the enactment of a valid initiative.
Specifies that the provisions of this bill are fully retroactive
and apply to contracts entered into before, on, or after the
effective date of this bill should it be enacted.

1)Provides that the measure of damages for a breach of contract,
unless otherwise provided by law, is the amount which will
compensate the aggrieved party for all the detriment
proximately caused by the breach, or which, in the ordinary
course of things, would be likely to result the breach.
Specifies, however, that no damages may be recovered for a
breach of contract which are not clearly ascertainable.
(Civil Code Sections 3300 and 3301.)
2)An initiative measure that is a valid exercise of the police
power does not, in the case of an oil lease between a city and
a private oil company, constitute a violation of the Contracts
Clause of the U.S. Constitution; however, a city could
nonetheless be liable in damages for breach of contract if the
initiative prevents the city from fulfilling the terms of the
contract. (Stop Oil Coalition v. City of Hermosa Beach (2001)
86 Cal. App. 4th 534.)
FISCAL EFFECT As currently in print this bill is keyed
non - fiscal.
COMMENTS. . This bill reflects ongoing litigation between the
City of Hermosa Beach and the Macpherson Oil Company. In 1992
the city and the oil company entered into a lease that permitted
the company to engage in oil and gas exploration and production.
In 1995, however, the voters of Hermosa Beach adopted
Proposition E, a local initiative that reinstated an earlier
prohibition on oil drilling in the city. A California Court of
Appeals found that the initiative, as a valid exercise of the
police power, did not amount to an unconstitutional impairment
of a contract, but the same court later held, in an unpublished
decision, that the City might still be liable for damages.
(Hermosa Beach Stop Oil Coalition v. City of Hermosa Beach
(2001) 86 Cal. 4th 534.) Although this case has apparently
created an abundance of complex litigation among different
parties, recent reports indicate that the oil company is
presently seeking as much as $500 million dollar - although
reported amounts vary - which includes damages for lost profits.
This bill would provide that a public entity cannot be held
liable for lost profits for a breach of contract if the breach
was caused by a validly enacted initiative. This bill also
expressly provides that its provision will be fully retroactive,
applying to any contracts entered into before, on, or
bill becomes effective. The author stresses that the
narrowly tailored: it only applies to lost profits dai
it only applies where the public entities performance
rendered impossible by a validly enacted initiative.

not relive the public entity of liability for other damages,
such as reasonable reliance damages, and it would not relieve
the public entity from liability in any other situation.
Measure of Contract Damages and Statutory Limitations Both
common law and the California Civil Code provide rules for
determining the measure of damages for breach of contract. The
basic rule of contract law is that the non - breaching party is
entitled to "expectation damages" - or the amount that the
non - breaching party would have earned if the contract had been
completed. Expectation damages may generally include lost
profits - since profits are generally part of the contracting
party's expectation and the "benefit of the bargain." However,
there are many qualifications to this rule, both in statute and
case law. For example, California law generally permits lost
profits as part of the expectation damages, but it also
stipulates that the amount of damages must be reasonably
certain. (Civil Code Section 3301.) Thus, for example, lost
profits cannot be recovered if they are deemed to be too
"speculative," but they can nonetheless be rewarded if the
evidence shows, with reasonable certainty, both their occurrence
and extent. (Begl Construction Co. v. Los Angeles Unified
School District 2007 WL 2446858.)
Courts also sometimes award "reliance" damages, which typically
award a plaintiff's out -of- pocket expenses or other costs
reasonably incurred in anticipation of, or reliance upon, a
contract or agreement that never came to pass. In such
situations, the plaintiff generally cannot recover expectation
damages or profits because there is no way of knowing what the
ultimate terms of the agreement would have been or even if there
would have been an ultimate agreement. (Copeland v. Baskin
Robins USA (2002) 96 Cal App 4th 1251.)
The kind and extent of damages awarded by a court is generally a
highly fact - specific, case -by -case determination. However,
whatever general rules may govern that determination, those
rules can be modified by statute. Civil Code Section 3300
acknowledges that the measure of damages generally holds "except
where otherwise expressly provided by this code." For example,
AB 2780
-. - -_ -.. Page 5
the Civil Code provides prescribed measures of damages for
contracts conveying real estate, affecting carriers, or
involving contracts for public and private works of improvement.
(See e.g. Civil Code Sections 3302 through 3321.) Despite the
claims of some of the opponents, this bill would not mark the
first time that a statute was fully retroactive and applied to
contracts or agreements entered into before the effective date
of the statute. (See e.g. Civil Code 1646.5; Code of Civil
Procedure 410.40; and Government Code Section 895.8.)

AB 2780 Assembly Bill - Bill Analysis
ARGUMENTS IN SUPPORT Most of the letters of support for this
bill come from small to medium -sized cities, mostly in Southern
California. These letters generally stress the financial
fragility of many public agencies. They point out that lawsuits
seeking lost profits are necessarily highly speculative and
potentially ruinous to a city's treasury.
The City of Hermosa Beach argues that it is simply unfair to
hold a city liable for damages where an initiative, over which
the city had no control, makes it impossible to meet its
obligations under the contract. This is especially unfair, the
city contends, where a court has upheld the initiative banning
oil drilling as a valid police power measure. Representatives
of the City of Hermosa Beach have also stressed that this bill
is a fair and balanced compromise, one that is fully consistent
with long- standing contract defenses such as impossibility.
However, unlike that doctrine, this bill does not create a
complete defense but only prevents the company from obtaining
highly speculative lost profits. It does not prevent the
company from obtaining restitution or reliance damages.
"Hence," the city concludes, "it is a fair and balanced bill
that would still make the private lessee whole, but without
potentially bankrupting the city."
Page 5 of 7
ARGUMENTS IN OPPOSITION The California Independent Petroleum
Association (CIPA) opposes this bill "because it violates the
basic principles of contract law, establishes a precedent that
undermines the sanctity of contracts, proposes to alter hundreds
of pre- existing contracts, exposes the state to massive
litigation . . . and interferes with a case that is currently
being adjudicated."
The California Chamber of Commerce opposes this bill for many of
the same reasons cited by CIPA, noting in particular the bill's
retroactive application and its impact on existing contract
-_AB __2780
Page 6
rights. The Chamber contends lost profits justly compensate by
putting the aggrieved party in the position it would have been
in had the contract been performed. The Chamber also points out
that existing contract principles safeguard against unreasonable
claims by requiring a showing of reasonable certainty by the
party claiming the lost profits. The Chamber concludes that
this bill would "seriously undermine public policies of
stability and predictability that undergird the right and
motivation of contract" and it would create an incentive for
abuse of the initiative process to undo contracts.
Conclusion Although opponents raise legitimate concerns about
the effect of retroactivity on existing contracts, they appear
http: / /www.leginfo.ca.gov /pub /07- 08/bill /asm /ab_2751- 2800 /ab_2780_cfa_20080428_ 102... 4/30/2008
AB 2780 Assembly Bill - Bill Analysis
to overstate the extent to which this bill would work a
fundamental alteration of contract principles or leave
non - breaching parties without just compensation. First, this
bill only applies in situations in which an initiative causes
the public agency to breach a contract. It seems highly
unlikely that it would lead a city to abuse the initiative
process. Indeed, in the Hermosa Beach case the city did not
seek the initiative but in fact opposed it. In the initial
trial the City was the defendant in a suit brought by Stop the
Oil Coalition, an environmental coalition seeking injunctive
relief to stop the city from issuing well or drilling permits.
The City argued that the initiative was not retroactive and, if
it was, constituted an impermissible interference with contract.
(86 Cal App 4th at 545 -546.) The City eventually lost on this
point. In short, the City did not initially try to use the
initiative to avoid its obligations under the contract.
Second, in addition to applying only in the rare situation where
an initiative makes it impossible for a public entity to perform
under a contract, the bill is also narrowly focused on lost
profits. It would not deny a company restitution or reliance
damages. This bill would simply take lost profits out of the
measure of damages when a public entity breaches a contract due
to a rare and narrow circumstance clearly beyond its control,
the passage of an initiative.
