CITY COUNCIL MEETING
AUGUST 26, 2024
Consideration and possible action to conduct a public hearing to consider proposed adjustments to the maximum rates for residential, commercial and multi family solid waste collection services; adopt Resolution No. 24-51 - A Resolution establishing rate adjustments for residential, commercial and multi-family solid waste collection services charged by CR&R Incorporated for a five-year period commencing on September 1, 2024.

Background
In 2011, the City entered into a Revised and Restated Solid Waste Franchise Agreement with CR&R Incorporated that established initial maximum rates for solid waste services (AFN 399.2).
This Agreement has been amended twice to adjust and incorporate State - mandated requirements for recycling and organic waste programs inclusive of appropriate rate increases.
The current term of the Franchise Agreement is set to expire on August 31, 2024. In August 2023, the City Council approved the establishment of an ad hoc committee consisting of two Council Members to review and consider the City’s options related to Solid Waste Management Services.
The committee, along with representatives from CR&R, MuniEnvironmental (the City’s environmental consultant), and City staff met on several occasions to review the existing Franchise Agreement and propose changes (including service rates) through a third Amendment to the agreement which require a Prop 218 Hearing.

Proposition 218 is an initiative passed by California voters in 1996 designed to allow greater public involvement in rate setting processes for public agencies. It requires agencies to mail a public notice to every property owner and customer-of-record within the service area when proposing a rate change and establishes a protest process if they wish to oppose the proposed rates. In 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 18-18 establishing Prop 218 procedures for increases to solid waste rates and requiring the City Council to approve the 45-day notice for proposed adjustments. On June 24, 2024, the City Council approved the Prop 218 Public Hearing notice which:
•Provided notice of tonight’s public hearing;
•Contained the link to the City’s website that listed proposed rates for all service categories over the next five (5) years; •Disclosed that if the proposed rates are approved, they will take effect on September 1, 2024; and •Contained the official ballot for property owners and customers-of-record wishing to protest the proposed rates.

Proposition 218 Requirement

On July 10, 2024, the Notice of Public Hearing was mailed out to 13,523 property owners and customers-of-record informing them of the August 26, 2024, Public Hearing. Rates cannot take effect if the City Council finds that a majority of ratepayers protest the rate increase.
A majority protest would equal 6,761 or more protest ballots. As of this afternoon (8/26) the City has received 135 protest ballots, which does not meet the majority protest threshold.
Adoption of Resolution 24-51 would establish potential rate increases for solid waste services through August 31, 2029.
If CR&R Inc. were to request an additional rate increase to the potential rates presented here, then another Prop 218 proceeding would be required.

Proposition 218 - continued

Amendment Highlights
There is no rate increase proposed for residential accounts for the first year (through August 31, 2025).
Introduction of smaller cart sizes (65 gal & 35 gal) options for residential service at reduced rates (approx. 5% reduction).
Rate reductions for Organics Collection (-6.25%); Green Waste Only bins (-

6.25%); and Manure bins (ranging from -6.25% to -17.93%). CR&R is proposing a rate increase of (15.38%) specifically for commercial accounts that use two (2) and three (3) yard recycling bins. Agreement term of 8 years (through August 31, 2032) with the option to exercise a single 2-year extension if both parties agree at that time. CR&R will annually pay an Infrastructure Impact Fee of $200,000 beginning January 1, 2025, to be used for infrastructure improvements to trash enclosures in City-owned parking lots in order to be in compliance with State-mandated requirements for 3 container collection methodology.

Amendment Highlights - continued
CR&R will establish an abandoned item collection team that will work 5 days per week (Mon – Fri) for 8 hours each day patrolling City streets and alleyways to pick up and disposed of abandoned items. At the direction of City Council, an additional layer of coverage can be added and would be passed through to CR&R customers (A service category for this has been added to the proposed Maximum Rate Schedule). CR&R will replace all collection carts for single-family dwellings and multi-family dwellings without bin service. The appearance of the new carts will include a black body and the lids will be color-coded by material type (black lid for refuse, blue lid for recyclables and green lid for organics). Collection Vehicle Replacement - To ensure collection vehicles are in good working order, collection vehicles shall not exceed an average of 8 years of age with no single current or replacement vehicles exceeding a maximum of twelve 12 years of age. Based on the current fleet inventory, four vehicles will be replaced in 2025, three vehicles will be replaced in 2027 and one vehicle will be replaced in 2028. CR&R will replace both the street sweeper and the back-up sweeper by December 31, 2025. CR&R will repaint all collection vehicles at least every 5 years or within 30 days notice from City if City determines that any collection vehicle’s appearance warrants repainting.

Billing Cycle Conversion & State-
Mandated Compost/Mulch Procurement
Billing Cycle Conversion for
Commercial & Multi-Family Accounts
Effective January 1, 2025, CR&R
shall convert from billing
Commercial and Multi-Family
customers in arrears to billing them
in advance.
To prevent customers from the
financial burden of having 2
month’s charges due
concurrently, CR&R will allow the
past month’s charges to be paid
in 12 equal installments over 12
months (interest free).

State Mandated Compost &
Mulch Procurement
As mandated by the State of
California, the City is required to
procure certified compost/mulch in
an effort to reach its “Recovered
Organic Waste Product
Procurement Target.”
The City estimates that it will procure
approximately 2,000 cubic yards
annually to be used at City parks,
other landscaped areas and public
giveaway events.
A service category for this fee has
been included in the proposed
Maximum Rate Schedule.

DISCUSSION

A. Franchise Background and Proposed Amendment

On April 11, 2011, the City entered into Revised and Restated Franchise Agreement File No. 399.2 with CR&R for Solid Waste Management Services (the “Franchise Agreement”). Those services include, without limitation, residential automated curbside collection, multi-family and commercial refuse and recyclable bin collection, and roll-off refuse and recyclable material processing and collection. The term of the Franchise Agreement is set to expire on August 31, 2024.

In August 2023, the City Council approved the establishment of a two (2) Council Member ad hoc committee to review and consider the City’s options related to Solid Waste Management Services. The committee, along with representatives from CR&R, MuniEnvironmental (the City’s environmental consultant) and City staff met on several occasions to review the existing Franchise Agreement. As a result, recommendations related to the operations of the Solid Waste Management Services and service rates were incorporated into proposed Amendment No. 3. On June 24, 2024, the City Council approved draft Amendment No. 3 to Agreement File No. 399.2, approved the Proposition 218 Notice and directly staff to initiate the Proposition 218 Protest Hearing process.

Highlights from the proposed Amendment No. 3 are as follows:

Agreement Term
Amendment No. 3 proposes to extend the existing Franchise Agreement with CR&R for an additional eight (8) years through August 31, 2032, with the option to extend the agreement for a single 2-year extension.

Rate Adjustments
CR&R is proposing no rate increase for residential accounts during the upcoming year (through August 31, 2025). Additionally, CR&R will introduce additional cart sizes categories (both 60 gallon and 35 gallon) for residential service at reduced rates . There will also be rate reductions for Organics Collection (-6.25%); Green Waste Only bins (-

6.25%); and Manure bins (ranging from -6.25% to -17.93%). CR&R is proposing a rate increase of (15.38%) for commercial accounts that use two (2) and three (3) yard recycling bins. Such rate adjustments will be based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers, Series ID: CUURS49ASA0, Not Seasonally Adjusted, All items, Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA, as maintained and published by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. Proposition 218 regulations cap the maximum allowable increase at 5% for each year. If the CPI Index is less than 5%, then the index percentage will be used to adjust the rates for the particular year. 2 Staff Report – CR&R Protest Hearing for Proposed Rate Adjustments August 26, 2024

Franchise Fee
Beginning September 1, 2024, the Franchise Fee will annually be adjusted using the percentage change to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the previous twelve (12) month period ending May 31st each year. The annual increase in the Franchise Fee will not exceed 5%.

Downtown Infrastructure Impact Fee
Beginning January 1, 2025, CR&R will pay an annual fee of $200,000 to be used for infrastructure improvements to the City parking lot trash enclosures the City is required to implement as part of the three (3) container collection methodology imposed by the State of California. Beginning September 1, 2025, this fee will annually be adjusted using the percentage change to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the previous twelve (12) month period ending May 31st each year.

Abandoned Item Collection
CR&R will establish a dedicated abandoned item collection team of two (2) CR&R employees utilizing a collection vehicle that will work five (5) days per week (Monday – Friday) for 8 hours each day to patrol the City streets and alleyways to pick up and dispose abandoned items.

Collection Vehicle Specifications and Street Sweeping Equipment To ensure collection vehicles are in good working order, collection vehicles shall not exceed an average of eight (8) years of age with no single current o r replacement vehicle exceeding and maximum of twelve (12) years of age. Based on the current fleet inventory, four (4) vehicles will be replaced in 2025, three (3) vehicles will be replaced in 2027, and one (1) vehicle will be replaced in 2028.

CR&R proposes to replace the street sweeper and the back -up sweeper by December 31, 2025. Additionally, if a sweeper unit over the age of five (5) years experiences more than three (3) mechanical breakdowns in a three (3) month rolling period that results in service interruption outside of the posted sweeping schedule, then the sweeper must be replaced by a sweeper less than five (5) years old.

CR&R will repaint all collection vehicles at least every five (5) years or within thirty (30) days’ notice from City if City determines that any collection vehicle’s appearance warrants repainting.

Collection Cart Replacement and Color Scheme
CR&R proposes to replace all collection carts for single -family dwellings and multi- family dwellings without bin service. CR&R must provide evidence of the order by December 1, 2024, and must provide a logistical plan for the distribution of the carts prior to January 1, 2025. The appearance of the new carts will include black bodies and the lids will be color coded by material type (black lid for refuse, blue lid for recyclables and green lid for organics).

DISCUSSION – Continued

Billing Cycle Conversion for Commercial and Multi-Family Customers Effective January 1, 2025, CR&R shall convert from billing Commercial and Multi -Family customers in arrears to billing them in advance. To prevent customers from the financial burden of having 2 month’s charges due concurrently, CR&R will allow the past month’s charges to be paid in twelve (12) equal installments over 12 months (interest fee).

Compost and Mulch Procurement
As mandated by the State of California, the City is required to procure certified compost/ mulch in an effort to reach its “Recovered Organic Waste Product Procurement Target.” The City estimates that it will procure approximately 2,000 cubic yards annually to be used at City parks, other landscaped areas and public giveaway events. The fee for the procurement is included in the Maximum Rate Schedule.

B. Rate Comparison with Surrounding Cities

For purposes of illustration only (Proposition 218 does not allow for calculating rates based upon comparisons with other jurisdictions; it allows only for the City to recover its own unique costs), the charts below illustrate how CR&R’s rates for 202 4 compare with those from surrounding communities. Please note that some rates do not reflect full implementation of Senate Bill 1383 at this time.

The charts below illustrate how Bellflower’s 2024 proposed rates compare with those from surrounding communities for the two most common services levels in Bellflower:

C. Proposition 218 Notice of Protest Hearing

Pursuant to Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution (approved by the voters by Proposition 218), before imposing a new or increasing an existing property-related fee such as solid waste collection fees, the City is required to mail notice of the protest hearing to the record owner of and any tenant who is directly liable for the payment of the proposed fees (i.e., a customer-of-record) and hold a public protest hearing. The notice must be provided at least 45 days before the date of the protest hearing on the proposed fees.

In 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 18-18 establishing procedures for increasing maximum rates for solid waste collection services, in accordance with the requirements of Proposition 218. These procedures require the City Council to approve a Proposition 218 Notice, which contains the proposed monthly rates for residential and commercial services, including organic waste and roll-off box collection services; and the date in which the rates would become effective if approved.

In order to consider the proposed adjustments to the Rates submitted by CR&R as part of the proposed extension to the Franchise Agreement, a new Proposition 218 proceeding must be conducted utilizing the procedures established by Resolution No. 18-18.

Public Works prepared the attached Notice, which provides notice of the August 26, 2024, protest hearing date; contains the proposed Rates for the next five years beginning September 1, 2024, through August 31, 2029; discloses that if the proposed Rates are approved, they will take effect on September 1, 2024; and contains the official ballot for property owners or authorized representatives wishing to protest the proposed Rates.

On June 24, 2024, the City Council directed staff to issue the Notice, which was mailed on July 10, 2024, to each property owner and customer-of-record.

CITY OF BELLFLOWER

RESOLUTION NO. 24-51

A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING RATE ADJUSTMENTS FOR

RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL AND MULTI-FAMILY SOLID

WASTE COLLECTION SERVICES CHARGED BY CR&R

INCORPORATED FOR A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD COMMENCING
ON SEPTEMBER 1, 2024

THE CITY COUNCIL RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. The City Council finds and declares as follows:

A. On April 11, 2011, the City Council entered into Revised and Restated Franchise Agreement File No. 399.2 with CR&R Incorporated (CR&R), for Integrated Solid Waste Management Services (Franchise Agreement) and adopted maximum rates for solid waste collection services through the approval of the Franchise Agreement.

B. Since the approval of the Franchise Agreement, California law changed to now require the City to implement additional diversion programs that were not included as part of the original Franchise Agreement. A summary of these follows:

i. Assembly Bill 1826 (Mandatory Commercial Organics Recycling) – This bill requires businesses to arrange for organic recycling services if they generate four or more cubic yards of commercial solid waste per week.

It requires multi-family residential dwellings to arrange for organic recycling service if they have five or more dwelling units; however, multi-family dwellings are only required to divert green waste, not food waste. In September 2020, the State of California’s Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) further reduced the threshold to two or more cubic yards of commercial solid waste per week.

ii. Senate Bill 1383 (Short-lived Climate Pollutants (SLCP): Organic Waste Methane Emissions Reductions) – This Bill mandates that California reduce organic waste by 50% by January 1, 2020, and 75% by January 1, 2025. It mandates that public agencies increase edible food recovery by January 1, 2025. As a result, organic waste will no longer be able to be disposed of in the landfill. SB 1383 requirements will take effect on January 1, 2022, at which time CR&R must provide all customers required to participate with compliant programs such as organic waste collection, coordination with food rescue organizations to promote edible food recovery, education and outreach, reporting, and contamination monitoring. This will also include providing mandatory organics food scrap collection to all residential customers and mandatory organic waste recycling services to all businesses subject to the requirements of AB 1826.

C. To comply with these new laws, the City negotiated with CR&R to provide the necessary services.

D. On June 24, 2024, the City Council directed staff to issue a Proposition 218 Notice for proposed adjustments to the maximum rates for residential, commercial and multi-family solid waste collection services (the “Notice”).

E. On July 10, 2024, the City mailed the Notice, including the protest ballot, by first class mail to a total of 13,523 property owners and customers-of-record of parcels to which the proposed maximum rates for residential, commercial and multi-family solid waste collection services would apply, informing them of the August 26, 2024, protest hearing.

F. On August 26, 2024, the City Council conducted a protest hearing and received 121 valid written protests prior to the closing of the protest hearing.

G. The total number of valid written protests was 121, which is less than 50 percent of the total number of valid written protests that could legally be presented.

H. After hearing public testimony, the City Council considered whether to establish potential rate increases for residential, commercial and multi-family solid waste collection services.

SECTION 2. Based upon the testimony provided at the protest hearing, the City Council establishes the rate increases for residential, commercial and multi-family solid waste collection services charged by CR&R for a five-year period commencing on September 1, 2024, as set forth in attached Exhibit A, which is incorporated by reference.

SECTION 3. This Resolution does not affect any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before, or preclude prosecution and imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before, this Resolution’s effective date. Any such amended part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Resolution.

SECTION 4. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the City Council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable.

SECTION 5. Electronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

SECTION 6. The Mayor, or presiding officer, is authorized to execute this Resolution signifying its adoption by the City Council of the City of Bellflower and the City Clerk, or duly appointed deputy, may attest thereto.

Company acknowledges that this conversion may cause an undue financial burden on customers if two month’s charges are due concurrently (i.e., charges from the previous month billed in arrears and as the charges for the upcoming month billed in advance due at once).

To prevent Customers from experiencing such a burden, Company must allow the past month’s charges to be paid in 12 equal installments, over the same number of months, interest free (for example, if the past month’s balance is $150, one twelfth’s (1/12th) of this amount, or $12.50, would be included on each future monthly bill until the total amount is paid).

On or before December 1, 2024, Company must submit to the City Manager or his designee for review and approval of the final plan details and related notices to be sent to Customers.” SECTION 24.Pursuant to Section 13.5 of the Agreement, Article 6 (Company Compensation and Rates), Sections 6.1 through 6.7 are deleted in their entirety, and replaced by Sections 6.1 through

6.6, to read as follows:
“ARTICLE 6 – COMPANY COMPENSATION AND RATES

6.1 Initial Rates
Company must provide services to Customers pursuant to the Agreement, at rates it sets, charges to, and collects from Customers, which rates may not exceed those set forth in EXHIBIT A and incorporated herein by this reference (“Maximum Rate Schedule”), as such maximum rates may be adjusted periodically under the terms hereof. The maximum rates set forth in EXHIBIT A are inclusive of all services to be provided, including transportation, disposal, and container costs, as well as City Fees, and no other charges may be imposed by Company for such services.
22 City of Bellflower
Agreement File No. 399.2 - Amendment No. 3
CR&R, Incorporated

Page 12 of 20 ends

City and Company acknowledge that City, in accordance with Section 6(A) of Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Proposition 218), will provide required Notices regarding proposed rate increases and an opportunity for protest and a hearing, as applicable.

6.2 Schedule of Future Rate Adjustments
Beginning with rate year September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2026, and for all subsequent rate years, Company may request an annual rate adjustment within the parameters of said Maximum Rate Schedule.

At least 60 days before seeking an adjustment in rates due to changes in the CPI or disposal component, Company may request the City Manager's approval to do so by providing written notice of its intent to increase rates. The City Manager must approve such request within a timeframe so as to allow for a 30 day advance notice to customers, pursuant to Government Code Section 53756(d).

At least 45 days before imposing any rate increase, Contractor must obtain the City Manager's approval to do so. The City Manager must approve such a request unless it is determined, based upon substantial evidence, that the requested adjustment to the maximum rate does not meet the requirements as set forth herein. It is anticipated that to obtain City Manager's approval of Company's requested rate increase, Company must provide all necessary information to justify the request.

6.3 Method of Future Rate Adjustments

6.3.1 Annual Consumer Price Index Adjustment
Commencing on September 1, 2025, the maximum rates as set forth in EXHIBIT A are be adjusted, and such rates may be adjusted annually thereafter on each subsequent September 1st during the Term hereof (the "Adjustment Dates"), by multiplying each rate in effect on August 31st of each year by the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for All Urban Consumers, Series ID: CUURS49ASA0, Not Seasonally Adjusted, All items, Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA, for the 12 month period ending May 31, immediately prior to the applicable Adjustment Date.

6.3.2 Adjustment to Disposal Component of Rates
The rates set forth in EXHIBIT A also are subject to increase or decrease to account for pass-through disposal fee changes at solid waste landfills or other facilities generally in Los Angeles County. The disposal fee change is a pro-rata pass through of change in fees charged by the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts or any other public agency providing disposal services. Such costs include, without limitation, landfill tipping fees or other disposal, processing, recycling, or diversion costs as required or allowed by California law. Company must 23 City of Bellflower
Agreement File No. 399.2 - Amendment No. 3
CR&R, Incorporated

Page 13 of 20 ends

submit documentation substantiating the fee changes, in conjunction with pertinent rate adjustment calculations based on the proportional impact that the disposal component cost changes have on the maximum rates.

All future rate increases for pass-through disposal fee changes may generally occur on September 1st of each year, unless in the event of an unanticipated, extraordinary fee change by the provider of disposal services, in which event Company may seek a rate increase up to the maximum amount permissible.

6.3.3 Limitations to Annual Adjustment Increases
In no event may the rates set forth in EXHIBIT A be increased for either the CPI or the Disposal Component pass-through in any single year by more than an aggregate 5%; however, in the event an increase exceeds the 5% cap, the un-applied percentage may be rolled forward and applied to maximum rate increases in subsequent years.

In any year that CPI is negative, rates for that year will not decrease and remain static.

6.4 Extraordinary Rate Adjustments
Company may request an adjustment to the maximum rates set forth in EXHIBIT A, at reasonable times other than as set forth above, for unusual changes in the cost of providing service under the Agreement, which includes changes in the scope of Solid Waste Services or Programs provided hereunder, if such changes are due to new or expanded recycling legislation mandating heightened diversion or recovery standards for Solid Waste materials handled by Company pursuant to the Agreement. For each request for an adjustment to the maximum rates brought pursuant to this Section, Company must prepare a schedule documenting the extraordinary costs. Such request must be prepared in a form acceptable to the City Manager or his designee with support for assumptions and representations made by Company in preparing the estimate. The City Manager or his designee WILL review Company's request and, in the City Council's sole judgment and absolute discretion, make the final determination as to whether an adjustment to the maximum rates will be made, subject to compliance with Proposition 218; and, if an adjustment is permitted, the appropriate amount of the adjustment.

City may consider increases or decreases in Company's total revenues and total cost of services when reviewing a Discretionary Rate Adjustment request. Company may not request a discretionary rate adjustment in the maximum rates as a result of changes in fees or taxes such as Social Security; disability or income tax; changes in the market value of Recyclables or processing costs for Recyclables or Organic Waste Materials; inaccurate estimates by Company of its cost of operations; or costs of compliance with South Coast Air Quality Management District and Air Resource Board rules and standards for Solid Waste Collection Vehicles. 24 City of Bellflower

Company may not receive any other fees or compensation for services to be performed pursuant to the Agreement in excess of those authorized by the Maximum Rate Schedule under the terms hereof. Further adjustments and/or increases beyond those authorized by the Maximum Rate Schedule are strictly subject to the City Council’s sole judgment and absolute discretion; and compliance with Proposition 218, the Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act, and all applicable laws.

6.6 Notice of Increases

SECTION 29.Construction. The language of each part of this Amendment will be construed simply and according to its fair meaning, and this Amendment will never be construed either for or against either party.

SECTION 30.Severable. If any portion of this Amendment is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then such portion will be deemed modified to the extent necessary in the opinion of the court to render such portion enforceable and, as so modified, such portion and the balance of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING – PROPOSED ADJUSTMENTS FOR SOLID WASTE

COLLECTION SERVICES
The City of Bellflower (the “City”) is proposing an adjustment to the maximum rates for residential, commercial and multi-family solid waste collection services (collectively, the “Rates”). The proposal will be presented to the City Council for approval at a Protest Hearing on August 26, 2024 at 7:00 p.m. If approved, the Rates outlined in the charts included in this notice would become effective September 1, 2024. Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution (Proposition 218) requires that the City mail notice of these proposed Rate changes to all impacted property owners and solid waste collection service customers at least 45 days before a protest hearing. Proposition 218 also establishes a protest process for the public to follow if they wish to oppose the proposed Rates.

DATE, TIME AND LOCATION OF THE PUBLIC HEARING
The Public Hearing will be held on August 26, 2024 at 7:00 p.m. at the City’s Council Chambers located at 16600 Civic Center Drive, Bellflower, California.

PROTEST PROCEDURE
At the August 26, 2024 public hearing, any person may be heard regarding the proposed Rate adjustments. If you wish to oppose the proposed Rate adjustments, you are requested to submit a written protest by mail or hand delivered in advance of the hearing to the following address:

City of Bellflower
City Clerk’s Office
Attn: City Clerk
16600 Civic Center Drive
Bellflower, CA 90706
In addition, written protests may be submitted in person before or at the hearing. The City will count all properly filled out written protests received before the conclusion of the public hearing. If a majority of affected property owners and solid waste collection service customers submit a written protest, the proposed new Rates will not take effect. The City will not count written protests received after the conclusion of the public hearing. Verbal protests unaccompanied by a written protest will not be counted.

Protests should contain the following information: 1) the property’s Assessor’s Parcel Number, if known, and/or address; 2) your customer account number with City’s franchise solid waste collection service provider; 3) whether you are the owner or a tenant that is billed directly by the City’s franchise solid waste collection service provider; 4) a statement that you are protesting the Rate adjustments; and 5) your printed name, date, and original signature.

Only one protest per property will be counted. If you own multiple properties affected by the proposed adjustments, you should submit separate protests for each affected parcel, as the protest threshold is based upon a majority of the total number of parcels. Once opened, protests are disclosable public records.

DATE: August 26, 2024

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Adoption of Resolution No. 24-52 would authorize the City Manager to execute Agreement File No. 1057 with Silvestre Madrigal Jr., owner of Richie’s Hot Chicken (Applicant). If approved, the Applicant will use the financing for façade improvements to an existing building. Chapter 3.1 is a city-wide matching loan provided through the City’s Economic Development Business Assistance Plan (the Plan), which requires a matching contribution from the business owner and adherence to Plan guidelines.

RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL

1) Open the public hearing; take documentary and testimonial evidence; and after considering the evidence, consider adopting Resolution No. 24-52; or

2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.

FISCAL IMPACT

The total loan amount payable under Agreement File No. 1057 for building façade improvements is $25,000. Funds for the Plan are available and have been budgeted in Account No. 510-44410-4002.

DISCUSSION

On April 8, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-19 which set forth policies and procedures for distributing economic development funds to business and/or property owners participating in the Plan. This resolution introduced Chapter 3.1, City-wide Matching Loan, to Chapter 3 Commercial Facade Improvements.

Page 2 of 2 ends

DISCUSSION

This Program includes commercial properties throughout the City and helps with façade improvements and exterior building upgrades that are visible from the street.

Chapter 3.1 of the Plan provides a 66% matching loan for building façade upgrades, up to a maximum loan amount of $25,000. The loan is disbursed on a cost reimbursement basis, requiring the Applicant to match the remaining costs. Chapter 3.1 loans are amortized over five years and are 100% forgivable at the end of the term, provided the business is still operational or has not been sold. If the Applicant defaults or sells the business, he must immediately repay the outstanding balance of the loan.

Silvestre Madrigal Jr., owner of Richie’s Hot Chicken, submitted his completed application for Chapter 3.1 of the Plan to enhance the façade of his restaurant at 10003 Alondra Boulevard, specifically, building signage and the branded drive-through directional signage (see attached Exhibit “A”). This is the site of a former Kentucky Fried Chicken drive-through restaurant, which has been vacant for over 10 years. The Economic Development Department staff reviewed the application and confirmed that all Program requirements are met. He has requested a $25,000 loan for these improvements, all of which are eligible under the Plan's guidelines. The improvements are anticipated to be completed before the end of the year.

On June 28, 2023, City Council approved the City’s Operating Budget for Fiscal Years 2023-24 and 2024-25, in which $330,000 was approved in fiscal year 2024-2025 for special economic development programs related to marketing, business retention, tenant improvements, web/social media business support, façade/sign improvements, restaurant attraction, and other financial assistance to business operators and developers;

C. On April 8, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-19 to approve policies and procedures for distributing Economic Development funds to attract or retain customers to business and/or property owners participating in the Economic Development Business Assistance Plan (the “Plan”).

D. In June 2024, Silvestre Madrigal Jr. (the “Applicant”) submitted a completed application for Chapter 3.1 of the Plan for building façade improvements at Richie’s Hot Chicken located at 10003 Alondra Boulevard, which provides qualified business owners with a total loan amount of $25,000, per the Plan policies and procedures;

E. Economic Development staff carefully reviewed the Application and determined that the Applicant qualifies for a $25,000 (Twenty-Five Thousand Dollar) forgivable, matching loan with a 0% interest rate amortized over five years based on the policies and procedures of Chapter 3.1 of the Plan;

Resolution No. 24-52

Page 2 of 4 ends

After careful consideration, including a review of the documentary and testimonial evidence submitted during the public hearing, including, without limitation, the staff report submitted by the Director of Economic Development (“Director”), the City Council finds it is in the public interest to adopt this Resolution.

SECTION 2. Loan Findings. Pursuant the Plan, the City Council finds that the Applicant:

A. Is a new business seeking to locate and aesthetically improve the structure at 10003 Alondra Boulevard, located within the Project Area;

B. Will obtain a valid business license before the City issues a final certificate of occupancy for the project;

C. Provided receipts and paid invoices as part of his application for assistance, showing the amount of private investment within the business;

D. As a new business with limited start-up capital, has demonstrated good cause for public assistance under the Plan;

E. Provided to the Director that 15 people will be employed by the Business; and

F. Provided, as part of his application for assistance, a signed partnership agreement with Richie’s Hot Chicken, an executed lease for the property, and the Property Owner’s signature on the application for assistance authorizing Applicant’s application submittal.

SECTION 3. Action. The City Council:

SECTION 5. Reliance On Record. Each and every one of the findings and determinations in this Resolution are based on the competent and substantial evidence, both oral and written, contained in the entire record relating to the Project. The findings and determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of the City Council in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole.

SECTION 6. Limitations. The City Council’s analysis and evaluation of the project is based on the best information currently available. It is inevitable that in evaluating a project that absolute and perfect knowledge of all possible aspects of the project will not exist. One of the major limitations on analysis of the project is the City Council’s lack of knowledge of future events. In all instances, best efforts have been made to form accurate assumptions. Somewhat related to this are the limitations on the City’s ability to solve what are in effect regional, state, and national problems and issues. The City must work within the political framework within which it exists and with the limitations inherent in that framework.

SECTION 7. Preservation. This Resolution does not affect any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before, or preclude prosecution and imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before, this Resolution’s effective date. Any such amended part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Resolution.

SECTION 8. Severability. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the City Council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable.

SECTION 9. The City Manager will establish policies and procedures as necessary to carry out this policy.

SECTION 10. Summaries of Information. All summaries of information in the findings, which precede this section, are based on the substantial evidence in the record.

The absence of any particular fact from any such summary is not an indication that a particular finding is not based in part on that fact.

SECTION 11. Electronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

SECTION 12. The Mayor, or presiding officer, is hereby authorized to affix his signature to this Resolution signifying its adoption by the City Council of the City of Bellflower, and the City Clerk, or her duly appointed deputy, is directed to attest thereto.

SECTION 13. Effective Date. This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption and will remain effective unless repealed or superseded.

DATE: August 26, 2024

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On August 12, 2024, the City Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 1433 establishing a moratorium temporarily prohibiting the City from issuing permits for entertainment. The Bellflower Municipal Code (“BMC”) should be updated as to entertainment permits to better protect public health and safety. Draft entertainment regulations were included with the August 12th staff report and provided to the City Council to consider. These BMC amendments include regulations governing security, safety, impacts to surrounding businesses and residents, etc. Following the August 12, 2024, City Council meeting, minor changes were made to the draft entertainment regulations for consistency and clarification purposes. If adopted, this Urgency Ordinance would amend the BMC to address the issues of concerns related to entertainment permits and replace in its entirety BMC Chapter 5.36.

The Regular Ordinance, if adopted, would achieve the same results.

RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL

It is recommended that the City Council consider the following:

1) Adopt Urgency Ordinance No. 1434 amending BMC Chapter 5.36 governing entertainment permits by at least a four-fifths (4/5) vote to take effect immediately; and

2) Read by title only, waive further reading, and introduce Ordinance No. 1435 amending BMC Chapter 5.36 governing entertainment permits. Second reading and possible adoption would occur on September 9, 2024; or

3) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.

FISCAL IMPACT

There would be no substantial fiscal impact with adopting this Ordinance. Costs associated with codifying the proposed regulations are already part of the City’s operating budget.

BACKGROUND

BMC Chapter 5.36 includes regulations for submitting, reviewing, and processing applications for establishments requesting an entertainment permit. These regulations were adopted in 1973 and have not been modified since, with the exception of establishing fees.

While the City recognizes that entertainment is desirable for businesses and the community, it is apparent that updates to the BMC are desirable to protect public health and safety.

These include, without limitation, regulations governing security, safety, and impacts to the surrounding businesses and residents.

Currently, an entertainment permit is required for every form of live entertainment. There are certain exclusions in which a permit would not be required such as entertainment provided solely by one person playing the piano or other musical instrument, the use of a radio or juke box, etc. Consideration of an entertainment permit requires a public hearing before the City Council. In order to ensure these regulations are adequate and will be regulated in a manner that protects the public health, safety, and welfare of the community, an Urgency Ordinance was adopted by the City Council on August 12, 2024 establishing a temporary moratorium on entertainment permits. The current moratorium is for an initial 45-days, during which there is a temporary halt on issuing entertainment permits.

Draft regulations for entertainment permits were included with the August 12, 2024 moratorium staff report for Council direction. The proposed Ordinances include new entertainment permit regulations which would establish “one-stop” permitting for entertainment, i.e., there would be no need to secure additional permits such as temporary use permits. While most of the current regulations would be superseded, the proposed permitting process would retain the current public hearing requirements and City Council decision-making.

Among other things, the new regulations would limit permits to one year (though they would automatically renew on the anniversary date unless there were material changes); the permits would not be transferrable; applications would include a detailed description of the entertainment, security plans, and sound equipment. General conditions of approval would include maintaining liability insurance, abiding by designated operational hours, and implementing safety measures like registered security personnel. Alcohol-related conditions impose restrictions on outdoor consumption and mandatory training for employees serving alcohol.

Page 3 of 3 ends

BACKGROUND – Continued

Any changes to permit information must be communicated to the director within 30 days.

The director may modify, suspend, or revoke permits based on new information, violations, or any extraordinary need for public safety services. Emergency suspensions can occur when necessary to protect public safety. Notifications and appeals procedures for permit decisions are established, maintaining administrative oversight by the city manager, whose decisions are final.

Violations of the chapter constitute misdemeanors and can also be enforced through administrative fines, private enforcement actions, or by the City Attorney, who can prosecute violations. The City Attorney's enforcement also includes the ability to recover fines, penalties, and reasonable attorneys' fees in civil actions to abate nuisances or obtain injunctive relief.

Adoption of this Urgency Ordinance would amend in its entirety BMC Chapter 5.36 (Amusements, Dances and Entertainment Regulations). The regular Ordinance, if introduced, would be considered for second reading and possible adoption on September 9, 2024.

URGENCY ORDINANCE NO. 1434

AN URGENCY ORDINANCE AMENDING BELLFLOWER MUNICIPAL
CODE CHAPTER 5.36 RELATED TO ENTERTAINMENT PERMITS

THE CITY COUNCIL DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1: Findings. The City Council finds, determines and declares as follows:

A. Bellflower Municipal Code (“BMC”) Chapter 5.36 regulates entertainment permits issued to establishments providing entertainment and establishes a process to obtain an entertainment permit. These regulations were first adopted in 1973 and have not been modified since, with the exception of establishing fees.

B. The City recognizes the benefits that entertainment provides for businesses and the community. However, the City Council finds that the BMC should be updated to protect public health and safety.

C. On August 12, 2024, the City Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 1433 establishing a temporary (45-day) moratorium on issuing entertainment permits to consider adopting revised entertainment permit regulations.

D. On August 12, 2024, draft entertainment permit regulations were provided to the City Council to consider.

E. The City may adopt and enforce all laws and regulations not in conflict with the general laws and the City holds all rights and powers established by California law.

F. Based on the foregoing, the City finds that that this Ordinance is necessary to protect the City from the potential effects and impacts of inadequate permit regulations and the accompanying impacts from safety and security in the business and residential areas of the City and other similar or related effects on property values and the quality of life in the City’s neighborhoods.

G. Because of the findings set forth above, the City Council finds that this Ordinance should be adopted on an urgency basis to preserve the public health, safety, and welfare in accordance with Government Code §§ 36934 and 36937(b).

SECTION 2: Environmental Assessment. Adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.) because it establishes rules and procedures for operation of existing facilities. This Ordinance, therefore, is categorically exempt from further CEQA review under CEQA Guidelines §§ 15301. Further, the adoption of this Ordinance is also exempt from review under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3) because the Ordinance is for general policies and procedure- making. The Ordinance will not adversely impact the environment and is therefore exempt from the provisions of CEQA.

SECTION 4: Construction. This Ordinance must be broadly construed to achieve the purposes stated in this Ordinance. It is the City Council’s intent that the provisions of this Ordinance be interpreted or implemented by the City and others in a manner that facilitates the purposes set forth in this Ordinance.

SECTION 5: Enforceability. Repeal of any provision of the BMC does not affect any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before, or preclude prosecution and imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before this Ordinance’s effective date. Any such repealed part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Ordinance.

SECTION 6: Validity of Previous Code Sections. If this entire Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, any repeal or amendment of the BMC or other city ordinance by this Ordinance will be rendered void and cause such previous BMC provision or other the city ordinance to remain in full force and effect for all purposes.

SECTION 7: Reliance on Record. Each and every finding and determination in this Ordinance is based on the competent and substantial evidence, both oral and written, contained in the entire record relating to the project. The findings and determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of the City Council in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole.

SECTION 8: Severability. If any part of this Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the city council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Ordinance are severable.

SECTION 9: Publication. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City of Bellflower’s book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and, within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law. -5-

Decisions on the investment of funds in the Treasury Pool are made by the County Investment Officer in accordance with established policy, with certain transactions requiring the Treasurer's prior approval. In Los Angeles County, investment decisions are governed by Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 53600) of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the California Government Code, which governs legal investments by local agencies in the State of California, and by a more restrictive Investment Policy developed by the Treasurer and adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on an annual basis. The Investment Policy adopted on March 19, 2024, reaffirmed the following criteria and order of priority for selecting investments:

1. Safety of Principal

2. Liquidity

3. Return on Investment
The Treasurer prepares a monthly Report of Investments (the Investment Report) summarizing the status of the Treasury Pool, including the current market value of all investments. This report is submitted monthly to the Board of Supervisors. According to -13-

the Investment Report dated July 31, 2024, the June 30, 2024 book value of the Treasury Pool was approximately $58.998 billion, and the corresponding market value was approximately $56.738 billion.

An internal controls system for monitoring cash accounting and investment practices is in place. The Treasurer's Compliance Auditor, who operates independently from the Investment Officer, reconciles cash and investments to fund balances daily. The Compliance Auditor’s staff also reviews each investment trade for accuracy and compliance with the Board adopted Investment Policy. On a quarterly basis, the County’s outside independent auditor (External Auditor) reviews the cash and investment reconciliations for completeness and accuracy. Additionally, the External Auditor reviews investment transactions on a quarterly basis for conformance with the approved Investment Policy and annually accounts for all investments.

The following table identifies the types of securities held by the Treasury Pool as of June 30, 2024:
