Rotary brings 105 years of history to this initiative. Its members are business, professional and community leaders who provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. El Segundo Rotary Club, is one of 32,000 Rotary clubs located in more than 200 countries and geographical areas, that initiate service projects to address today's challenges, including illiteracy, disease, hunger, poverty, lack of clean water, and environmental concerns; and WHEREAS,When Rotary began its mission to eradicate polio more than 350,000 children were stricken with polio every year, and nearly 1,000 people were affected by the crippling disease every day. Since then, polio cases have been reduced by 99% to fewer than 1,700 cases in 2009. Today only four countries — Afghanistan, India, Nigeria, and Pakistan - remain polio - endemic. Due to the efforts of Rotary and its partners, the world is on the threshold of ending polio forever, making it only the second disease after smallpox to be eradicated; and WHEREAS, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has awarded $355 million to Rotary International in the global effort to eradicate polio, $200 million is a challenge grant to Rotary. And is one of the largest challenge grants ever given by the Gates Foundation and the largest received by Rotary in its 105 -year history. These funds will provide critical support to polio eradication activities that is spearheaded by RI and its partners, the World Health Organization, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and UNICEF. Rotary will distribute the funds through grants to WHO and UNICEF; and WHEREAS,Polio eradication has been Rotary's top priority since 1985, with more than $1.2 billion contributed to the effort. At the Rotary District Conference in San Diego, California in February 2009, Bill Gates praised Rotary for providing the volunteers, advocates, and donors who have helped bring about a 99% decline in the number of polio cases. 'The world would not be where it is without Rotary, and it won't get where it needs to go without Rotary," Gates said. Rotary is now nearing the three - quarter mark — having raised $140 million of the $200 million challenge. NOW, THEREFORE, on this 19`h day of October, 2010, the Mayor and Members of the City Council of the City of El Segundo, California, hereby proclaim October 24, 2010, WORLD POLIO DAYand invite the citizens of El Segundo to support the Rotary Club's goal.

Background On October 5, 2010, the City Council introduced an Ordinance to approve Environmental Assessment EA 723 to amend the El Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC) §15-27-6(D) and §15- 27A-6(E) regulating the collection of impact fees.

Unless otherwise provided by Council resolution, the impact fees established by this chapter will be automatically adjusted on an annual basis at the beginning of each fiscal year based on the average percentage change over the previous calendar year set forth in the construction price index for the Los Angeles metropolitan area. The first impact fee adjustment cannot be made before a minimum of ten (10) months after the effective date hereof." SECTION 3: Environmental Review. This ordinance is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., "CEQA ") and CEQA regulations (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.) because it does not involve any commitment to a specific project which could result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment and establishes rules and procedures to implement an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.

(Fiscal Impact: None) RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: 1. Adopt a resolution amending the City's existing procedures for mailing, handling and counting of Proposition 218 protest ballots to incude residential trash collection service fees. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: Proposed Resolution FISCAL IMPACT: None Amount Budgeted: $ Additional Appropriation: N/A Account Number(s): ORIGINATED BY: Stephanie Katsouleas, Director of Public Works REVIEWED BY: Mark Hensley, City Attorney 'D' APPROVED BY: Jack Wayt, City BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: The attached resolution proposes to amend the existing the procedures for mailing, handling and counting Proposition 218 protest ballots to include residential trash collection services. When the procedures were originally adopted by the Council the City did not charge for trash collection services, so the procedures were only applicable to water and wastewater fees. The procedures are intended to implement the intent of Proposition 218 with regard to allowing property owners, and pursuant to legislation utility customers, the opportunity to file written protests with regard to proposed utility fee increases. The procedures set forth, among other things, the process by which ballots are to be sent out and processed when they are returned. A key part of the procedures is that property owners or customers must utilize the ballot that is provided by the City. Unlike traditional elections, there is no process by which the City can verify signatures with regard to those casting protest ballots. Thus, in order to provide some controls in to the process and some degree of confidence that those actually protesting the proposed fees are either qualified property owners or customers the City requires that the forms provided by the City be used. These protest ballots are marked with Los Angeles County Assessor Parcel Numbers ( "APN ") based upon the latest information available from the County and are mailed to the property owner and the customers. Since the ballots are mailed directly to addresses identified on the Assessor's tax rolls and /or to the property itself there is a degree of confidence that the person that signs and returns the protest ballot is actually qualified to do so. Without this control process the Clerk's office would have to spend potentially excessive resources to determine whether protests were validly filed. Additionally, since it is possible that the property owner and customer are not the same individual but only one protest is counted per parcel, and given that both ballots would contain the same APN, the Clerk's office can electronically determine very quickly whether a protest has already been filed for the property and not improperly include a protest vote in the tabulation. It should be noted that in the event a property owner or customer requests a replacement protest ballot, one willed be mailed so long as a protest has not already been received for the property. Ballot materials for residential trash fees were previously approved by City Council on October 5, 2010 and will be mailed to property owners on November 5, 2010. Once mailing commences, the protest ballot period must run a minimum of 45 days. City Council will then conduct a public hearing on December 21, 2010 to count all protest ballots received and determine whether to implement a trash collection fee. t��rJ RESOLUTION NO.

Xerox Proposal FISCAL IMPACT: Included in Adopted Budget Amount Budgeted: $10,000 Additional Appropriation: N/A Account Number(s): 001 - 400 - 1301 -6260 ORIGINATED BY: Cathy Domann, Deputy City Clerk REVIEWED BY: Cindy Mortesen, City Clerk APPROVED BY: Jack Wayt, City Manager 4 BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: The City Clerk's Office currently has a five -year lease with Oce North America for a high speed copier which will expire in January of 2011. Staff has been very happy with the performance of Oce products and Oce's excellent service and maintenance of equipment. The equipment meets the City Clerk's Office need for high volume printing in a short period of time. The proposed lease is for an Oce VarioLink 4522C. This model has the multifunctional capability of printing, scanning, faxing and e- mailing which will result in cost savings associated with the Equipment Replacement Fund due to equipment no longer being replaced or future budget allocations necessary. Consolidating the copier, fax and printer machines with the multifunctional device will help streamline the City Clerk's Office processes and utility energy costs will be reduced. The equipment also meets Blue Angel, EPA Energy Star standards, uses less energy that the current Oce copier, and has low sound and ozone emissions. ;91 t n BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION CONTINUED: In addition, the OCE proposal is approximately $1,600 per year less that our current lease and approximately $7,000 less than a similar multifunctional device from Xerox. The total per year lease includes all supplies except paper and staples. The Oce VarioLink 4522C has been reviewed by the Information Services Division for Network and Site compatibility. � :5 OCe Oce North America, Inc.

This Pool Plan Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) (collectively, "Agreement ") modifies certain prior agreements (the "Underlying Agreements ") entered into between you and Xerox for the rental, lease or maintenance of that equipment indicated on the attached Pool Plan Pricing Exhibit (the "Pooled Equipment "). 2. POOL CREATION. The Pool Plan is a pricing arrangement covering the Pooled Equipment, each unit of which has been assigned a specked monthly Unit Portion Charge, a designated number of prints included within the Unit Portion Charge (the "Prints Included', and an excess usage charge for each print made beyond the Prints Included (the "Excess Rate per Print "), all of which is set out in the Pool Plan Pricing Exhibit. The individual Unit Portion Charges and Prints Included are added together to create respectively the Pool Monthly Charge and the Pool Prints Included. 3. AMENDMENT OF UNDERLYING AGREEMENTS. In addition to the pricing changes for the Pooled Equipment set out in the Pool Plan Pricing Exhibit, you agree that by entering into this Agreement you have amended the Underlying Agreements in the following manner: A. SUPPLIES INCLUDED. All Pooled Equipment shall either have supplies included as part of the amounts you pay under the Pool Plan or not, as indicated in this Agreement. If supplies are included, they shall be provided to you by Xerox pursuant to the standard Xerox terms for such arrangements in effect throughout the course of this Agreement. B. FIXED PRICING. All Pooled Equipment shall either have the pricing you pay for the rental or maintenance of that equipment fixed or not, as indicated in this Agreement. If the pricing is fixed, Xerox shall forego any rights it might have pursuant to the Underlying Agreements to increase the amount you pay to rent or maintain the Pooled Equipment throughout the initial term of each Underlying Agreement. C. BILLING. Xerox shall have the right to send all bills related to the Pooled Equipment to the Address indicated on this Agreement and to send such bills in accordance with the terms established hereunder. 4. COMMENCEMENT DATE. The Pool Plan Commencement Date shall be the later of (a) the date of this Agreement, or (b) the install date of the first unit(s) of Pooled Equipment. 5. BILLING OF POOL PLAN CHARGES. The Pool Monthly Charge is billed in advance. Charges for any prints made beyond the Pool Prints Included shall be made at the Excess Rate per Print and billed in arrears at intervals consistent with the Meter Reconciliation Period established under this Agreement. Invoicing will commence upon the Pool Plan Commencement Date (regardless of whether additional installations of Pooled Equipment are anticipated). The Pool Monthly Charge and Pool Impressions Included (a) will be prorated during any given month based upon Pooled Equipment not yet installed, and (b) will be adjusted for any units of Pooled Equipment subject to a K- 16 Billing Suspension arrangement. All payments are due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date or on the due date listed on the invoice, whichever is earlier. 6. ADDITIONAL CHARGES FOR POOLED EQUIPMENT.

For purposes of this Agreement, Use Charges shall be defined as those amounts you pay Xerox for the use of any leased Pooled Equipment (as opposed to its maintenance). For details regarding the billing of any applicable Use Charges, see the attached Use Charge Pricing Exhibit. 7. PRICING CHANGES. Unless the Pool Pricing is fixed (as described in Section 2 above), Xerox may annually adjust the Pool Monthly Charge, Pool Prints Included, and Excess Rate per Print, each such adjustment not to exceed 10%. (Far state and local xe rox *'J government customers, this adjustment shall take place at the commencement of each of your annual contract cycles.) 8. TAXES. You shall be responsible for any and all applicable Taxes, which will be included in Xerox "s invoice unless you provide proof of your tax exempt status. Taxes due on the Pool Monthly Charge will be the sum of the applicable state and local taxes due on the individual Unit Portion Charges based upon the location of each unit of Pooled Equipment. Taxes due on prints made beyond the Pool Prints Included will be based on the applicable state and local taxes and equitably apportioned amongst the units in the Pool. If a taxing authority determines that Xerox did not collect all applicable Taxes, you shall remain liable to Xerox for such additional Taxes. 9. MODIFICATION OF PRIOR XEROX AGREEMENT. If this option has been selected, this Agreement will modify a prior Pool Plan Agreement between you and Xerox covering the Pooled Equipment such that the prior agreement shall remain as written except for any new terms presented in this modification agreement (e.g., changes regarding Fixed Pricing). 10. ADDITIONS, DELETIONS, AND CHANGES. You may add Equipment to and/or delete Equipment from the Pool at any time, provided that the Underlying Agreements covering any Equipment added to the Pool shall be amended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Once an addition or deletion takes place (or an Underlying Agreement is terminated, renewed, or modified), Xerox shall have the right to equitably adjust the Pool Monthly Charge, Pool Prints Included, and Excess Rate per Print amounts. Note that any such adjustments (as well as any other Pool Plan pricing adjustments made pursuant to this Agreement) shall allow for specific adjustments to the Unit Portion Charge, Prints Included, and Excess Rate per Print of each unit of Pooled Equipment. 11. TERMINATION. Either party may terminate this Agreement for its own business reasons upon 30 days written notice. In this event, and with regard to individual units of Pooled Equipment removed from the Pool Plan pursuant to Section 10 above, the Underlying Agreements shall be in full force and effect as written prior to their being amended by this Agreement except that (a) any amendments to the Underlying Agreements created under Section 2 of this Agreement shall remain in effect, and (b) the pricing for the equipment covered by the Underlying Agreements may be recalculated by Xerox as follows: i. all Maintenance and Rental Agreements may be charged at the standard, applicable Xerox rate then in effect for you; ii. all Lease Agreements under which you received a separate bit for the Minimum Lease Payments (i.e., those leases under which these charges were paid outside the Pool Plan) shall continue to result in one bill for the Minimum Lease Payments and a second bill for the Periodic Base Charges and all Print Charges for your leases (which may be charged at the standard, applicable Xerox rate then in effect for you); and, iii. all Lease Agreements under which your Use Charges were billed exclusively through the price you paid per print in the Underlying Agreements may be adjusted in order to render the Periodic Base Charges and all Print Charges for your leases consistent with the standard, applicable Xerox rate then in effect for you. 12. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement as to its subject matter, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous oral and written agreements regarding said subject matter.
