This letter serves as a summary and follow-up to the meeting between the Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County (District) and the City of Bellflower (City) held on January 13, 2026, via Microsoft Teams. The purpose of this letter is to memorialize and confirm key points discussed during the meeting.

Los Angeles County Fire Code
During the meeting between the City and the District, the City confirmed its intent to not adopt the Los Angeles County Fire Code (LACFC) and to instead continue utilizing the California Fire Code.

Plan Reviews
The City indicated it will not allow the District to perform plan reviews and intends to continue to utilize an independent plan reviewer for these services because of previous long review times (2019 In -N -Out and Fire Museum projects). As promised at our meeting on March 6, 2025, the District conducted an analysis of turnaround times for the period of March 10, 2025, through October 31, 2025. The District reviewed 26 plans for building, fire sprinkler, and fire alarm projects, with the average turnaround time of five business days or less. As stated in the meeting dated January 13, 2026, the District has resolved the turnaround time issue and is within industry standards.

The District remains committed to providing fire and life safety services to the City and its residents and is concerned that the City's actions could potentially place lives and public safety at risk. Therefore, the District continues to demand the City:
• Immediately adopt the LACFC.
• Have the City immediately amend its Municipal Code through Ordinance No. 1422, designating the Fire Chief of the District as the Fire Chief of the City, not the City Manager.
• Have the District be the sole plan reviewer and approval authority for the City except for R-3 dwellings.

We look forward to continuing discussions to move towards a resolution that adheres to all applicable laws and ordinances.

If this letter represents inaccurate statements, please advise the District immediately.

If you have any questions, please contact me at (323) 881-6180 or via email at Anthony.Marrone(c�fire.lacounty.gov, or your staff may contact Assistant Fire Chief Richard Stillwagon at (213) 598-6479 or via email at [email protected].

Hello –
No, I do not have any questions. I think the better angle for the Fire District would be to arrange for a meeting with the City – which the City has continuously asked for since 2019.

Unless County Counsel wishes to reach out directly to me, there’s no need to contact me in the future. My Assistant and Deputy City Attorneys (copied) will happily respond to any further communications from you.

Thanks.

12-A
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council

ATTENTION: Ryan Smoot, City Manager

FROM: Jim DellaLonga, Director of Economic Development

SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action to conduct a public hearing to consider adopting Resolution No. 26-17 – A Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Purchase and Sale Agreement File No. 1140, in a form approved by the City Attorney, between the City of Bellflower and Anaya Natural Foods LLC and to transfer the necessary funds from the Unassigned General Fund Reserve to the
Property Acquisition Reserve for the purchase of real property located at 16710-16712 Bellflower Boulevard (APN 7109-013-002 & APN 7109-013-074).

DATE: May 26, 2026

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Executing a Purchase and Sale Agreement File No. 1140 (PSA) with Anaya Natural Foods LLC (“Seller”) would cause the City to purchase real property located 16710-16712 Bellflower Boulevard for $600,000. Acquiring the property would give the City control over its future use in a manner that contributes to Downtown Bellflower’s economic growth and continued revitalization.

RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL

1) Open the public hearing; take documentary and testimonial evidence; and after considering the evidence, adopt Resolution No. 26-17 authorizing the City Manager to execute Purchase and Sale Agreement File No. 1140, in a form approved by the City Attorney, and to transfer the necessary funds from the Unassigned General Fund Reserve to the Property Acquisition Reserve; or

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

FISCAL IMPACT

The City will pay $600,000 to Anaya Natural Foods LLC to acquire the Property.

Even with the $1 million minimum allocation to the General Fund Property Acquisition Reserve at the end of FY 2025-2026 based on the budgeted surplus, the Property Acquisition Reserve is not anticipated to have an available cash balance, as all funds have been used to acquire properties held for resale and/or development, and loans provided to developers. To fully fund the property purchase and related closing costs, a transfer of $600,000, plus actual closing costs, from the Unassigned General Fund Reserve to the Property Acquisition Reserve is recommended.

Staff Report – Purchase and Sale Agreement File No. 1140 with Anaya Natural Foods LLC May 26, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

FISCAL IMPACT – Continued

If the actual General Fund surplus transfer to the Property Acquisition Reserve exceeds the minimum allocations for FY 2025–2026 and FY 2026–2027, the advance transfer will be applied against the surplus allocation, thereby restoring the Unassigned General Fund Reserve.

PUBLIC NOTICE

On May 8, 2026, and on May 15, 2026, a Public Hearing Notice was published in the Los Cerritos Community News newspaper.

DISCUSSION

The Property consists of a vacant lot containing two parcels (APN 7109-013-002 & APN 7109- 013-074) totaling approximately 6,970 square feet.

Located in the heart of Downtown Bellflower, this purchase represents a key asset and economic opportunity that will contribute to the downtown area’s growth and revitalization. It is proximate to other key sites and developments such as the Mayne Events Center/L.A.

County Fire Museum, the Regional Transit Center, the future Metro Light Rail Station, Friendship Plaza and Pirate Park, Library Garden Park, Town Center Plaza, various public facilities and public parking, and the commercial amenities in the Downtown.

The City reviewed recent comparable sales in Downtown Bellflower which support the negotiated purchase price of $600,000 for the property. The purchase and sale agreement represents the terms and conditions of this pending acquisition.

It is the City’s intent to explore development of the property in such a way that will contribute to the economic opportunity of the Downtown Bellflower area and enhance the public welfare.

Projects anticipated for the site, once approved, would create economic opportunity, as defined by Government Code § 52200.2, by increasing property tax revenues by at least 15% at full implementation of the project when compared to the year before the Property being acquired by the City. Proceeds from any future sale or lease of the property will be returned to the City’s general fund.

Attached is a Summary Report required by Government Code § 52201 that describes the following:

a) the cost of the agreement to the City;

b) the estimated value of the interest to be conveyed or leased determined at the highest and best uses permitted under the general plan or zoning;

c) if applicable, the estimated value of the interest to be conveyed or leased determined at the use with the conditions, covenants, and development costs required by the sale or lease;

d) the purchase price or present value of the lease payments which the lessee will be required to make during the term of the lease;

DISCUSSION – Continued

e) if the sale price or total rental amount is less than the fair market value of the interest to be conveyed or leased, determined at the highest and best use, then the city shall provide, as part of the summary, an explanation of the reasons for the difference; and

f) an explanation of why the sale or lease of the property will assist in the creation of economic opportunity (as defined by Government Code § 52200.2), with reference to all supporting facts and material relied upon in making this decision.

SUMMARY REPORT PURSUANT TO
GOVERNMENT CODE § 52201

REGARDING A

PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

BY AND BETWEEN THE

CITY OF BELLFLOWER AND

ANAYA NATURAL FOODS, LLC

The following Summary Report was prepared pursuant to Government Code § 52201. This report sets forth certain details of the proposed Purchase and Sale Agreement (“Agreement”) between the City of Bellflower (“City”) and the Anaya Natural Foods, LLC (“Seller”).

Seller owns a total of 6,970 square feet of land located at 16710-16712 Bellflower Boulevard on two parcels (APN 7109-013-002 & APN 7109-013-074) (“Property”). The Agreement requires Seller to sell the Property to City.

The following Summary Report is based upon information required by the Government Code. It is organized into the following three sections:

I. Salient Points of the Agreement: This section summarizes the major responsibilities agreed to by Seller and City by the Agreement.

II. Cost of the Agreement to the City: This section details the total cost to City associated with implementing the Agreement.

III. Creation of Economic Opportunity: This section describes the existing condition of the subject property and explains how the Agreement will assist in the creation of economic opportunity.

This report and the Agreement are to be made available for public inspection before the City Council considers approving the Agreement and not later than the time of publication of the first required notice of the public hearing pursuant to Government Code § 52201.

I. SALIENT POINTS OF THE AGREEMENT

A. Project Description

Summary Report Government Code Section 52200 – Purchase and Sale Agreement – 16710-16712 Bellflower Blvd. 2 C. City Responsibilities Under the Agreement

1. City will purchase the Property for $600,000 following satisfactory inspection(s) of the Property during escrow and the Due Diligence Period.

II. COST OF THE AGREEMENT TO THE CITY

The cost incurred by City to implement the Agreement is $600,000 for the purchase of the Property plus half of the typical escrow fees and de minimus costs for inspections and staff time to effectuate the acquisition.

III. ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY

The Property, located on Bellflower Boulevard in Downtown Bellflower, is currently a vacant lot.

City intends to explore future development options that will create economic opportunity, as defined by Government Code § 52200.2. Potential future uses may include, without limitation, commercial, residential, or mixed-use development.

Significant development exists and is planned within the vicinity of the Property. This includes Edgeway Downtown Bellflower, The Mayne Events Center and Los Angeles County Fire Museum, The Bellflower Regional Transit Center and Parking Structure, SteelCraft outdoor food hall, the Flower Street Specific Plan, the Downtown Collection townhomes by City Ventures, The Nest Eatery, and The Stand-Up Comedy Club. The Site, located in the heart of Downtown Bellflower, is proximate to City-owned public parking lots and Civic Center amenities including a public library, Town Center Plaza, Library Garden Park, Pirate Park, Friendship Plaza, and the Bellflower Walking and Biking Trail. Additionally, a street improvement project was approved by the City Council to complete improvements on Bellflower Boulevard from Flower Street south to the 91 Freeway.

The Property is strategically located on Bellflower Blvd. and will support future economic development and revitalization efforts within Downtown Bellflower. Development of the Property is expected to encourage additional investment, increase future economic development projects that are designed to create jobs, generate tax revenue, and promote sustainable development within communities.

Furthermore, as part of Downtown Bellflower, the property is included in the Downtown Bellflower Revitalization Vision Strategy, the Downtown Bellflower Strategic Development Plan, and within the Downtown Bellflower Transit Oriented Development Specific Plan Area.

The Downtown Bellflower TOD Specific Plan was created to align the City’s downtown goals with the future West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor and to support quality development in targeted areas.

The planning framework is intended to modernize zoning, balance land uses, encourage multimodal transportation, improve access to employment centers, and strengthen downtown Bellflower as a walkable, experience-oriented district for residents and visitors.

City-supported redevelopment activity in downtown Bellflower has emphasized projects that combine housing, retail, dining, entertainment, and adaptive reuse within a compact urban setting. This direction indicates a policy environment that favors infill development, mixed-use formats, and projects that contribute to an active pedestrian-oriented downtown.

Based on the planning documents and the pattern of recent downtown projects, the property is well positioned for higher-intensity urban infill rather than conventional low-density commercial development. The area’s policy direction supports projects that integrate residential uses with active ground-floor commercial or entertainment uses and that are designed to benefit from future transit access.

Likely supportable project categories include mixed-use residential over retail or restaurant space, standalone multifamily residential development, entertainment-oriented commercial concepts, small-format neighborhood-serving retail, creative office or shared workspace, and vertical infill on smaller lots. Final feasibility would still depend on the parcel’s specific subdistrict regulations, including allowed uses, density, height, floor area ratio, design standards, and parking requirements.

➢ Mixed-Use Residential

A mixed-use residential project with housing above ground-floor retail, restaurant, or service uses appears strongly aligned with downtown Bellflower’s current policy and development direction. The City has already advanced or supported projects of this type in the downtown core, including Edgeway Downtown Bellflower, which was described as a transit-oriented mixed-use development with residential units, restaurant and retail space, and entertainment uses.

➢ Multifamily Housing

A standalone multifamily project may also fit the area’s development direction, particularly if designed at an urban scale with strong pedestrian orientation and efficient parking solutions. The TOD planning effort is intended to encourage more development and better align land uses around transit, which generally supports additional residential density in the downtown area.

➢ Food, Beverage, and Entertainment Uses

Food, beverage, and entertainment concepts are especially compatible with the stated vision for downtown Bellflower as an experience-oriented destination centered on shopping, dining, recreation, and entertainment. Local precedent projects reinforce this direction, including SteelCraft Bellflower, a food-focused destination built from repurposed shipping containers.

➢ Creative Office and Adaptive Reuse

Creative office, co-working, maker space, and adaptive reuse concepts may also be viable where the site or building conditions support them. A notable local example is The Exchange, a repurposed former department store planned for office, shared workspace, maker space, and possible food and beverage uses.

➢ Development Characteristics Encouraged in the Area

Projects in this planning area are expected to support walkability, active street frontages, and transit-oriented urban form. Development concepts that place parking behind or within the building, activate the ground floor, and create a stronger relationship to the public realm are more consistent with the City’s stated objectives than conventional strip retail or surface-parking-dominated formats.

The planning work for downtown Bellflower also included a parking management study, which suggests that parking strategy is an important part of the redevelopment framework. This may create opportunities for shared parking, structured parking support, or more efficient parking ratios than would typically be expected in auto-oriented suburban commercial districts.

Summary Report Government Code Section 52200 – Purchase and Sale Agreement – 16710-16712 Bellflower Blvd. 4

➢ Comparable Downtown Projects

Existing and planned projects in downtown Bellflower provide useful guidance on the type of development the City has been willing to support:

• SteelCraft Bellflower, a destination food and beverage project built from repurposed shipping containers.

• Edgeway Downtown Bellflower, a mixed-use transit-oriented development planned with 91 residential units, approximately 4,750 square feet of retail and restaurant space, and a four-screen theater.

• The Exchange, an adaptive reuse project combining office, shared workspace, maker space, and possible food and beverage uses.

These examples suggest that the most competitive project concepts for the subject property would likely combine residential density, active ground-floor uses, and a strong placemaking or destination component.

The property can be described as being located within a City-supported redevelopment area where transit-oriented, mixed-use, residential, dining, entertainment, and adaptive reuse projects are actively encouraged. This planning designation strengthens the case for pursuing an infill development strategy oriented toward housing growth, destination-serving commercial uses, and long-term value creation tied to future transit investment.

As vacant, the Property is currently generating a minimum of property tax. The potential future sale and development of the Property, and subsequent property tax reassessment of the Property is anticipated to increase the property tax revenue to all taxing entities by at least 15% after full implementation of the project when compared to the year prior to the Property being acquired by the City.

CITY OF BELLFLOWER

RESOLUTION NO. 26-17

A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT FILE NO. 1140, IN A FORM

APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY, BETWEEN THE CITY OF

BELLFLOWER AND ANAYA NATURAL FOODS LLC AND TO

TRANSFER THE NECESSARY FUNDS FROM THE UNASSIGNED

GENERAL FUND RESERVE TO THE PROPERTY ACQUISITION

RESERVE FOR THE PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT
16710-16712 BELLFLOWER BOULEVARD (APN 7109-013-002 &
APN 7109-013-074)

THE CITY COUNCIL DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

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

A. On April 28, 2026, Bellflower made an offer to purchase the property located at 16710-16712 Bellflower Boulevard (APN 7109-013-002 & APN 7109-013-074) from Anaya Natural Foods LLC ("Seller") for a purchase price of $600,000.

B. Article II of the City Charter authorizes the City Council to govern the City's municipal affairs; Article V authorizes the City Council to establish policies needed to generate revenue for the public benefit; and Article V(D) provides that the City must aid economic growth.

C. Based on a review of recent comparable sales in Downtown Bellflower, the City verified the negotiated price for 16710-16712 Bellflower Boulevard ("Property") as a fair market purchase price.

D. Seller desires to convey the Property to the City of Bellflower for a purchase price of $600,000, which represents a fair market value for the Property per the City's review of recent comparable sales in Downtown Bellflower.

E. The City reviewed the environmental impacts of selling the Property under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”).

F. As set forth in the accompanying report (as required by Government Code § 52201) the City finds that the Property is an important asset that will contribute to the economic opportunity in Downtown Bellflower.

G. To enhance economic opportunities within the City, the City Council desires to acquire the Property from Seller for a purchase price of $600,000.

H. Toward that end, the City and Seller desire to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement for the Property.

I. Pursuant to Bellflower Municipal Code (“BMC”) § 2.32.050(F), the City Council opts to act as the City’s Planning Agency and finds that acquiring the Property would be consistent with the City’s General Plan in accordance with Government Code § 65402(a) as set forth below.

SECTION 2: Environmental Assessment. Adopting this Resolution is exempt from further environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines").

Acquisition of the Property (by itself) does not have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment. Consequently, it is categorically exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3) as CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. Additionally, acquiring the Property would result in minor (if any) alterations to existing facilities involving no significant expansion of the existing use. Acquiring the Property -- by itself -- would not have any significant impacts with regard to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. There are adequate utilities and public services to serve the Property. Any future redevelopment of the Property would require separate environmental review and either discretionary or ministerial approvals by the City. A simple conveyance of title does not necessitate preparation of an environmental document. The City Manager, or designee, is directed to file a Notice of Determination in accordance with Public Resources Code §§ 21152, 21167(f); CEQA Guidelines § 15075; and any other applicable law.

SECTION 3: General Plan. Acquiring the Property does not conflict with any Goal or Policy of the Bellflower General Plan and conforms to the following goals and policies of the Land Use Element of the General Plan:

A. General – Goal 2: Create a City that functions efficiently, is aesthetically pleasing, and makes the best use of its various resources. Acquiring the Property would potentially allow for future lot consolidation, thereby improving the site's aesthetics and making the best use of City resources to create a City that functions efficiently.

B. Commercial Policy 1, Implementation Program 1.3: Provide lot consolidation incentives for commercial parcels in order to create large, viable, commercial properties. Acquiring the Property would allow for lot consolidation that would allow it to be developable for future economic use.

SECTION 4: Authorizations. The City Council authorizes the purchase of the Property from Seller upon payment of $600,000 by City. To effectuate that conveyance, the Mayor and City Manager are authorized to execute all documents, in a form approved by the City Attorney, needed to implement the conveyance of the Property as contemplated by this Resolution including, without limitation, escrow instructions, the grant deed, the closing statement, and the certificate of acceptance. The City Manager is further authorized to accept the grant deed and cause the appropriate documents to be recorded in the Office of the County Recorder of the County of Los Angeles. The City Manager, or designee, is directed to transfer necessary funds from the Unassigned General Fund Reserve to the Property Acquisition Reserve for this property acquisition.

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 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 7: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption and will remain effective unless repealed or superseded.

PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BELLFLOWER THIS 26TH DAY OF MAY 2026.

THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY POOLED SURPLUS INVESTMENTS
The Treasurer and Tax Collector (Treasurer) of Los Angeles County has the delegated authority to invest funds on deposit in the County Treasury (Treasury Pool). As of March 31, 2026, investments in the Treasury Pool were held for local agencies including school districts, community college districts, special districts and discretionary depositors such as cities and independent districts in the following amounts:

The Treasury Pool participation composition is as follows:

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 11, 2025, 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 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 the Report of Investments dated April 30, 2026, the March 31, 2026, book value of the Treasury Pool was approximately $56.101 billion, and the corresponding market value was approximately $54.898 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 March 31, 2026:

Public Convenience or Necessity Letter to the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control regarding a Type 21 (Off -Sale General) with Type 86 (Instructional Tasting) alcohol license at a proposed 49,000 -square -foot grocery store within the General

DATE: May 26, 2026

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control ("ABC") requires a determination of Public Convenience or Necessity ("PCN") whenever an undue concentration of alcohol licenses exist, or the project location is within a high crime reporting district. The issuance of the requested alcohol licenses is for a high -quality grocery store that provides a commercial facility to meet the retail and service needs of the community. The alcohol sales area occupies less than 1% of the total floor area of the grocery store and alcohol sales are projected to account for less than 1% of the store's total gross sales. The grocery store's premium "Mercado" concept will enhance property values and provides a stabilized "anchor" for the shopping center and the corner of Clark Avenue and Rosecrans Avenue. Lastly, issuance of the PCN would not result in an actual increase of establishments that sell alcohol within the subject census tract and the City because one of the existing off -site alcohol licenses was previously issued where the proposed grocery store is to be located.

Staff Report — PCN for 14317-14339 Clark Avenue
May 26, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

BACKGROUND
ABC limits the issuance of alcohol licenses within census tracts based on the population size and considers crime statistics within the district when evaluating license requests. In circumstances where the Applicant is applying for an alcohol license and the permissible number of licenses has been exceeded or the project location is within a high crime reporting district, ABC requires the Applicant to obtain a statement from the local governing body that PCN would be served by issuing the alcohol license. The statement could be in the form of the following: (1) a City Official completing items #24 to #30 of Form ABC -245 and certifying or affixing the official seal of the City; (2) attaching a copy of the Council or Board resolution; or (3) attaching a copy of a signed letter on official letterhead stating whether or not the issuance of the license would serve as a public convenience or necessity.

On May 4, 2026, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and approved a Conditional Use Permit ("CUP") to allow accessory off -site alcohol sales (Type 21) with instructional tasting (Type 86) at a proposed 49,000 -square -foot grocery store within the General Commercial ("C -G") zone on real property commonly known as 14317-14339 Clark Avenue ("Project Site") (Attachment C). According to ABC, a Type 21 license is issued to retail stores and authorizes the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits for consumption off the premises where sold. A Type 86 license allows the tasting of beer, wine and/or distilled spirits at off -sale licensed premises, where the quantity and number of tastings that may be offered to consumers is limited. The Type 86 license can only be held in conjunction with a qualified off -sale license. Additionally, the Type 86 license type is subject to Responsible Beverage Service ("RBS") requirements and requires alcohol servers and managers to be RBS certified.

During the CUP process, staff solicited comments from ABC which informed staff that a PCN determination is required from the local governing body. Because the requested ABC licenses for the grocery store will result in undue concentration of off -site alcohol licenses within the subject census tract (there are 2 existing licenses in Census Tract No. 5540.01, the requested license would exceed the 2 licenses allowed in the census tract), a PCN is required. In addition, the Project Site is located within a high crime reporting district (Crime Reporting District 1332), which also necessitated a PCN.

CONCLUSION
The issuance of the requested alcohol licenses is desirable because it is for a high -quality grocery store that provides a commercial facility to meet the retail and service needs of the community. The alcohol sales area occupies less than 1% of the total floor area of the grocery store and alcohol sales are projected to account for less than 1% of the store's total gross sales. The grocery store's premium "Mercado" concept will enhance property values and provides a stabilized "anchor" for the shopping center and the corner of Clark Avenue and Rosecrans Avenue. Although issuance of the PCN would increase the number of licenses within the subject census tract, it would not result in an actual increase of establishments that sell alcohol within the subject census tract and the City because one of the existing off -site alcohol licenses was for the former 99 Cents Store tenant space (recently occupied by Dollar Tree), where the proposed grocery store is to be located. -2-

Re: 14317-14339 Clark Avenue, Bellflower, CA 90706
To Whom It May Concern:

On May 4, 2026, the Planning Commission of the City of Bellflower adopted Resolution No. PC 26-03 approving Conditional Use Permit Case No. CU 26-01 to allow accessory off -site alcohol sales (Type 21) with instructional tasting (Type 86) at a proposed 49,000 - square -foot grocery store within the General Commercial zone at the aforementioned property. Furthermore, the City Council, the local governing body, determined on May 26, 2026, that the issuance of the alcohol licenses is necessary and serves the public interest in that the alcohol sales will be ancillary to a high -quality grocery store that provides a commercial facility to meet the retail and service needs of the community. Due to the alcohol sales being an ancillary use, the alcohol sales area occupies less than 1% of the total floor area of the grocery store and alcohol sales are projected to account for less than 1% of the store's total gross sales.

Although issuance of the aforementioned alcohol licenses would exceed the limit set forth by state law, it would not result in an actual increase in establishments that sell alcohol within the subject census tract and the City. Your record shows that one of the existing off -site alcohol licenses (License No. 552702) was for the former 99 Cents Store tenant space, where the proposed grocery store is to be located. Lastly, the grocery store's premium "Mercado" concept will enhance property values and provides a stabilized "anchor" for the shopping center and the corner of Clark Avenue and Rosecrans Avenue.

Sincerely,
City Manager

TYPE OF ACTION (QUASI-JUDICIAL)
Quasi -Judicial: The Planning Commission will act in a quasi-judicial role when considering the Conditional Use Permit ("CUP") application. in considering such action, the Planning Commission acts in a quasi-judicial role. While doing so, the Planning Commission acts like a court; it applies facts gathered during a public hearing to existing law. Just like a court, the Planning Commission can only consider facts that are relevant to the case. A party appearing before the legislative body is entitled to:
• Notice of the proposed action;
• Reasons for the action;
• A copy of the evidence on which the action is based; and • The right to respond before a reasonably impartial, non-involved reviewer.

If the Planning Commission asks irrelevant questions and bases its decision -making on such questions, a court may overturn the Planning Commission's decision and hold the City potentially liable for violating the Applicant's constitutionally protected due process rights.

• Request
Kevin Le of Le Architecture ("Applicant"), representing Northgate Gonzalez Market is requesting approval of a CUP to allow accessory off -site alcohol sales with instructional tasting at a proposed 49,000 -square -foot grocery store located within the C -G zone on realproperty commonly known as 14317-14339 Clark Avenue ("Project Site"). Pursuant to Bellflower Municipal Code ("BMC") § 17.44.030 (C -G, Conditional Uses) accessory off - site alcohol sales are conditionally permitted in the C -G zone.

Alcohol sales at the Project Site are regulated by the California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control ("ABC"). The Applicant is requesting a Type 21 (Off -Sale General) with Type 86 (Instructional Tasting) license. According to California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control ("ABC"), a Type 21 license is. issued to retail stores and authorizes the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits for consumption off the premises where sold. A Type 86 license allows the tasting of beer, wine and/or distilled spirits at of -sale licensed premises, where the quantity and number of tastings that may be offered to consumers is limited. This license can only be held in conjunction with a qualified off -sale license.

This license type is subject to Responsible Beverage Service ("RBS") requirements and requires alcohol servers and managers of alcohol servers to be RBS certified.

Site Description
The Project Site fronts Rosecrans Avenue to the north, and Clark Avenue to the east. The Project Site is comprised of two lots; one tot (6278-018-001) is developed with four commercial buildings, and the other tot (6278-018-002) sits vacant and is used as overflow parking area. All the tenants share a common area developed with landscaped areas and parking areas that contain 315 parking spaces, which exceeds the parking requirement. As proposed, the grocery store will occupy a tenant space that measures approximately 49,000 square feet, which was previously occupied by Big Lots and Dollar Tree. Interior and exterior tenant improvements are proposed, including installation of cart corrals within the parking lot.

Proposed Business Operation
The grocery store includes, among other things, on -site Tortilleria, Tamaleria, Taqueria, Carneceria, and Puestas (in-store eateries) and will be operating from 7am to lOpm daily.

The grocery store is expected to bring approximately 100-150 jobs to the City (up to 35 employees per shift).

Of the 49,000 -square -foot grocery store, approximately 400 square feet will be designated as the alcohol section, located in the middle of the grocery store. in addition, a temporary floor space of approximately 60 square feet within the alcohol section or the 100 -square -foot area labeled on the floor plan as i_icoreria will be used as the instructional tasting areas, located adjacent to the "Entry/Exit #1 B". The tasting areas are limited to no more than five (5) people and will typically operate between the hours of 11am — 6pm daily, although instructional tastings typically happen on weekends. Certain restrictions are imposed by the grocery store for the tasting areas, such as no minors allowed within the area and only one type of alcohol is served per event. Tasting events are scheduled events rather than continuous services, with each individual session for the event lasting approximately 1.0-15 minutes per customer.

Ail employees handling alcohol are over 21 years of age and must complete RBS training that is approved by ABC. As it relates to alcohol sales, all cashiers are trained in alcohol sales and distilled spirits are kept behind the customer service counter, requiring one-on- one employee assistance. As it relates to the instructional tastings, the events are staffed by a dedicated manufacturer or distributor representative. The operation includes specific alcohol management and control measures, as detailed in Attachment E.

ANALYSIS
• Crime Statistics and Concentration of Alcohol Licenses The Project Site is located within Crime Reporting District ("CRD") No. 1332. Based on the number of reported offenses, the CRD where the Project Site is located is considered a "high crime area." Thus, a letter or determination of public convenience or necessity is required by ABC frorn the City. As part of the review process, the CUP request was reviewed by the Bellflower Public Safety Department which did not have any specific concerns with the proposal.

The Project Site is also located within Census Tract No. 5540.01. Based on the ratio of licenses -to -population in the subject census tract, the ABC allows up to two off -site alcohol licenses. According to ABC's data, there are currently two active off -site alcohol licenses within the subject census tract - see Attachment C. The requested ABC license for the grocery store will result in undue concentration of off -site alcohol licenses within the subject census tract. Although approval of the CUP for the off -site alcohol sales would increase the number of licenses within the subject census tract, it would not result in an actual increase of establishments that sell alcohol within the subject census tract and the -8-

City because one of the two existing off -site alcohol licenses was for the former 99 Cents Store tenant space (recently occupied by Dollar Tree), where the Northgate Gonzalez Market is proposed to be located. Nonetheless, because it is considered an increase of licenses beyond what is allowed within the subject census tract, ABC requires that this be addressed by issuing a letter or making a determination that public convenience or necessity will be served by the issuance of the alcohol license. • Conditional Use Permit
As conditioned, the project meets all required findings of the CUP, as outlined in Resolution No. PC 26-03 (Attachment A). Pursuant to BMC § 17.96.080 (Conditional Use Permits — Conditions), the Planning Commission may establish conditions of approval that are found to be necessary to secure substantial protection for the public health. safety, comfort, convenience and general welfare. Exhibit A of Resolution No. PC 26-03 (Attachment A) identifies all the recommended conditions of approval for the project. • Zoning and General Plan Consistency
As conditioned, the Project conforms with the City's General Plan Land Use Element and the zoning regulations in the BMC as outlined in Resolution No. PC 26-03 (Attachment A).

A RESOLUTION APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE NO. CU 26-01 TO ALLOW ACCESSORY OFF -SITE ALCOHOL SALES WITH
INSTRUCTIONAL TASTING AT A PROPOSED 49,000 -SQUARE -FOOT GROCERY STORE WITHIN THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL ("C -G") ZONE ON REAL PROPERTY COMMONLY KNOWN AS 14317-14339 CLARK
AVENUE; APPLICANT: KEVIN LE OF LE ARCHITECTURE,

REPRESENTING NORTHGATE GONZALEZ MARKET
THE PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Recitals. The Planning Commission finds and declares as follows:

A. On December 4, 2025, Kevin Le of Le Architecture, representing Northgate Gonzalez Market ("Applicant"), filed an application for a Conditional Use Permit ("CUP") to allow accessory off -site alcohol sales (Type 21) with instructional tasting (Type 86) at a proposed 49,000 -square -foot grocery store ("Project") within the General Commercial ("C -G") zone on real property commonly known as 14317- 14339 Clark Avenue ("Project Site");
B. The application was initially deemed incomplete. Revised application materials were submitted on April 3, 2026, and on April 22, 2026, the application was deemed complete;
C. The proposed Project was reviewed by the Director for, in part, consistency with the General Plan and conformity with the Bellflower Municipal Code ("BMC"); D. The City reviewed the Project's environmental impacts under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., "CEQA"), the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Environmental Guidelines ("Bellflower Guidelines"; CEQA, CEQA Guidelines and Bellflower Guidelines collectively referred to as "CEQA Regulations");
E. The Director completed the review and scheduled a public hearing regarding the proposed Project, before the Planning Commission for May 4, 2026; F.

I. This Resolution, and its findings, are based upon the entire administrative record considered during the May 4, 2026, public hearing including, without limitation, the staff report and accompanying documents.

SECTION 2. Factual Findings and Conclusions. The Planning Commission finds that the following facts exist:

A. The Project includes completion of interior and exterior tenant improvements for a grocery store that will combine two of the largest vacant tenant spaces at an existing shopping center into one. The total square footage of the grocery store is approximately 49,000 square feet. Accessory off -site alcohol sales with instructional tasting is being proposed as part of the business operation; B. The Project Site is located within the C -G zone, with a General Plan Land Use Designation of "C" (Commercial);
C. The Project Site is accessible from Rosecrans Avenue, a major arterial with 80 - foot pavement width and from Clark Avenue, a secondary arterial with 56 -foot pavement width;
D. The Project Site is bounded: to the north, by a quick -service restaurant with a drive- thru facility located within the C -G zone; to the south by single family dwelling units within the Single Family ("SF") zone; to the west by single family dwelling units located within the SF zone and a dental office located within the Light Industrial ("M-1") district; and to the east, by a large medical office/facility located within the Public Uses ("P") zone;
E. The Project is consistent with the applicable General Plan designation, General Plan policies as well as with the applicable zoning designation and regulations; and
F. Completing interior and exterior tenant improvements on two large vacant tenant spaces in the existing shopping center is crucial for the economic revitalization of the area. Improving the Project Site through private investment is a critical component of the City's overall plan for a thriving City.

SECTION 3. Environmental Assessment. This Project was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., "CEQA") and CEQA regulations (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.; the "CEQA Guidelines"). The proposed Project is Categorically Exempt under CEQA Guidelines § 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities), which exempts activities that involve negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. This activity would allow accessory off - site alcohol sales with instructional tasting at a proposed grocery store within an existing building with minor alterations and no addition of floor area. Accordingly, this activity involves a negligible expansion of the proposed use, and no further review is required.

SECTION 4. Notice of Exemption. The Director, or designee, is directed to file a Notice of Exemption in accordance with CEQA Guidelines §§ 15062; and any other applicable law. -11-

SECTION 5. Conditional Use Permit Findings. Pursuant to BMC § 17.96.040 (Conditional Use Permits — Necessary Conditions Precedent to the Granting of a Conditional Use Permit), the Planning Commission finds as follows:

A. Pursuant to BMC § 17.44.030 (C -G — Conditional Uses): "alcohol sales" is a conditionally permitted use. The proposed grocery store will serve the local and regional population and will provide essential grocery services and the ancillary alcohol sales (Type 21) and instructional tastings (Type 86) enhance the establishment's role as a regional destination.

B. Use of the property as a grocery store with accessory off -site alcohol sales with instructional tasting is necessary and desirable for the development of the community, is in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the General Plan and is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the C -G zone. The proposed Project is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan — Land Use Element: General Policy 2.2 (provide commercial facilities to meet the retail and service needs of the community); and Commercial Policy 1, Implementation Program 1.1 (place commercial land uses along major arterials and at nodes where collector streets meet arterials). The proposed use is advantageous to existing uses as well as uses specifically permitted in the C -G zone because it will contribute to providing a diverse range of commercial uses with accessory off -site alcohol sales. Although approval of the CUP for the off -site alcohol sales would increase the number of licenses within the subject census tract, it would not result in an actual increase of establishments that sell alcohol within the subject census tract and the City because one of the two existing off - site alcohol licenses was for the former 99 Cents Store tenant space (recently occupied by Dollar Tree), where the proposed use is to be located. The proposed operation is designed as a high -quality supermarket where alcohol sales are a minor accessory (less than 1% of the floor area). The proposed operation includes specific management plan that ensures order and safety.

C. The site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate said use, and for all the yards, setbacks, walls or fences, landscaping and other features that may be required in order to adjust said use to those existing or possible future uses of land in the neighborhood. The Project Site measures approximately 6.35 acres with frontage along Rosecrans Avenue to the north, and Clark Avenue to the east. The Project Site is comprised of two lots that are already developed; one lot (6278-018-001) is developed with four commercial buildings, and the other lot (6278-018-002) sits vacant and is used as overflow parking area.

The proposed Project involves improving the two largest vacant tenant spaces in the shopping center, which will be combined as one tenant space to be occupied by a grocery store that measures approximately 49,000 square feet. Interior and exterior tenant improvements are proposed, including installation of cart corrals within the parking lot. All the tenants will continue to share a common area developed with landscaped areas and parking areas that contain 315 parking spaces, which exceeds the parking requirement. The grocery store's premium "Mercado" concept will enhance property values and provides a stabilized "anchor" for the shopping center and the corner of Clark Avenue and Rosecrans Avenue. -12-

City of Bellflower
Resolution No. PC 26-03

Page 4 of 5 ends

D. The Project Site relates to streets and highways properly designed and improved so as to carry the type and quantity of traffic generated or to be generated by the proposed uses in that the shopping center where the use is being proposed has ingress / egress access from Rosecrans Avenue, a major arterial with 80 -foot pavement width and from Clark Avenue, a secondary arterial with 56 -foot pavement width, and both streets having adequate capacity to accommodate traffic generated by the proposed use.

SECTION 6. General Plan and Zoning. The proposed Project conforms with the City's General Plan and Title 17 (Zoning) of the BMC as follows:

A. The Land Use Designation of the Project Site is "C" (Commercial). Moreover, the proposed Project is consistent with the General Plan, as indicated on Section 5 of this Resolution.

B. The BMC zoning classification for the Project is "C -G", which conditionally allows for accessory off -site alcohol sales.

SECTION 7. Approval. Based on the foregoing and subject to the conditions set forth in the attached "Exhibit A," which are incorporated by reference, the Planning Commission approves Conditional Use Permit Case No. CU 26-01.

SECTION 8. Construction. This Resolution must be broadly construed in order to achieve the purposes stated in this Resolution. It is the Planning Commission's intent that the provisions of this Resolution be interpreted or implemented by the City and others in a manner that facilitates the purposes set forth in this Resolution.

SECTION 9. Enforceability. 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 10. 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 Planning Commission in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole.

SECTION 11. Limitations. The Planning Commission'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 Planning Commission's Zack 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 12. Severability. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Planning Commission intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provision or application and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable.

SECTION 13. 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 14. 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 15. Effective Date. This Resolution is the Planning Commission's final decision and will become effective immediately upon adoption and will remain effective unless the action is appealed within ten days pursuant to BMC §17.112.

SECTION 16. The Planning Commission Secretary is directed to mail a copy of this Resolution to the Applicant and to any other person requesting a copy.

EXHIBIT A
RESOLUTION NO. PC 26-03 CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL FOR

Unless the contrary is stated or clearly appears from the context, the construction of words and phrases used in these Conditions of Approval use the definitions set forth in the BMC.

A. Standard Project Conditions

1. Project Conformity and Plans. The Project Site must be developed and/or used in the manner requested and must be in substantial conformity with the submitted plans date -stamped April 3, 2026, unless revisions and/or additional conditions are specifically required herein. When exhibits and/or written Project Conditions are in conflict, the written Project Conditions prevail. The City will only issue permits for development, including grading, when the construction documents (e.g., grading plans and building plans) substantially comply with the approved plans. The size, shape, arrangement, use, and location of buildings, walkways, drainage facilities, and landscaped areas must be developed in substantial conformity with the approved plans. The Director may consider substantial conformity or refer any matter to the Planning Commission for consideration.

2. Binding Effect. This approval runs with the land. All rights and obligations of this approval, including the responsibility to comply with these Project Conditions, are binding upon Permittee's successors in interest. These Project Conditions may be modified, terminated, or abandoned in accordance with applicable law including, without limitation, the BMC.

3. Permit Validity and Extensions. Conditional Use Permit Case No. CU 26- 01 is valid for 12 months after the date of approval, unless construction commences within that 12 -month period, in which case the approval is valid as long as the construction permits for the Project are valid. Upon good cause shown, the Director may grant one extension for a period of up to one year from the original expiration date.

4. Approval Modifications and Deviations. All proposed deviations from the exhibits, project description, or Project Conditions must be submitted to the Director. Any unapproved deviations from the Project approval will constitute a violation of the permit approval.

The approval granted by this Resolution will be suspended for the time period that any Project Condition is appealed whether administratively or as part of a legal action filed in a court of competent jurisdiction. If any Project Condition is invalidated by a court of law, the Project must be reviewed by the City and substitute conditions may be imposed.

6. Acknowledgment and Effectiveness. The Permittee must sign these Conditions of Approval to acknowledge acceptance within 30 days from the date of approval by the Planning Commission. This decision is not effective until the Permittee acknowledges acceptance of al! Project Conditions, and any appeal period has lapsed, or a waiver of right to appeal is filed or if there is an appeal, until a final decision has been made on the appeal. By using the entitlements granted by a development application, the Permittee acknowledges agreement with Project Conditions.

7. Fees and Reimbursement. The Permittee must reimburse the City for all fees including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, expended by the City that are directly related to the processing of this Project. The City will not issue a Certificate of Occupancy or other final occupancy approval until all fees are paid by the Permittee.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
ATTENTION: Ryan Smoot, City Manager
FROM: Elizabeth C. Oba, Director of Planning and Building Services SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action to approve the 2026 Fireworks Permits.

DATE: May 26, 2026

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Bellflower Municipal Code ("BMC") Chapter 8.16 regulates the use and sale of fireworks in the City. Chapter 8.16 establishes the procedure for obtaining a permit. Each year, a list of all qualified applicants is presented to the City Council for formal acceptance.

Upon approval by the City Council, Fireworks Permits are issued.

RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL
1) Approve 12 Fireworks Permits; and
2) Authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary approvals for the Bellflower Kiwanis Club to operate on City -owned property; or
3) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.

FISCAL IMPACT
All 12 applicants submitted the required fees of $109.00 for the Fireworks Permit and $184.00 for the Miscellaneous Permit, for a total of $293.00 ($3,516.00 for all 12 applicants). A $150.00 cash bond was also collected from each applicant, for a total of $1,800.00, to guarantee faithful performance of the terms and provisions of the BMC.

The deposit is refundable upon expiration of the permit and removal of the stand, minus any actual costs incurred by the City as a result of a permittee's failure to perform.

The total amount collected is $5,316.00. All fees were collected before April 1, 2026.

DISCUSSION
Per BMC Chapter 8.16, the process to apply for a Fireworks Permit is as follows:
• In December, an invitation letter from the City is mailed out to all previous Fireworks Permit Holders requesting they once again apply for a Fireworks Permit and submit a "Letter of Intent" to the City to apply for a permit. • Upon the City's receipt of "Letters of Intent," a list is generated of those who wish to obtain a Fireworks Permit. Pursuant to BMC Subsection 8.16.060(D), the maximum number of permits to be issued is 14.

Staff Report — Approval of the 2026 Fireworks Permits
May 26, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

DISCUSSION — Continued
• Following the determination of the number of applications to be submitted, a letter is mailed in March to all eligible applicants indicating their current Fireworks Permit status and, depending on their status, may or may not contain a revised Fireworks Permit Application, Business License, Miscellaneous Permit, and Electrical Permit.
• All applications are due April 1, and each application for a Fireworks Permit must provide documentation including, without limitation, the following:
❖ A copy of the rental agreement with the landowner;
❖ A copy of the agreement with the fireworks supplier;
❖ A diagram showing the exact location of the stand in relation to adjacent streets and any other structures on the lot or adjacent lots, and onsite traffic circulation;
❖ A list containing a minimum of 20 of the organization's members who either reside in the City, are employed in the City, or are owners or operators of a business or other establishment located in the City, including their names, addresses, and telephone numbers, as of the date of the application;
❖ An application for a Miscellaneous Building Permit for location and erection of a temporary structure, accompanied by the requisite permit fees pursuant to City Council Resolution;
❖ An application for an Electrical Permit for any stand using an electrical power source other than a portable generator, accompanied by the requisite permit fees pursuant to City Council Resolution; and ❖ A $150.00 cash bond to guarantee faithful performance of the terms and provisions of BMC Subsection 8.16.050(E)(7), refundable upon expiration of the permit and removal of the stand, minus actual costs incurred by the City as a result of the permittee's failure to perform.

A complete list of requirements for Fireworks Permit is outlined in BMC Chapter

8.16 (see page 6).
• The list of all qualified applicants is then presented to the City Council for formal acceptance (at the May 26, 2026, City Council meeting) and upon approval by the City Council, Fireworks Permits will be issued.
• Fireworks Stands are allowed to be erected starting on noon of June 21, and a City Inspector will then inspect all 12 stands.
• Fireworks Stands are permitted to sell merchandise from June 30 through July 4 (per the recently adopted Ordinance No. 1455).
• By July 10, all Fireworks Stands are to be dismantled, and the location cleaned of all debris.

DISCUSSION — Continued
• The $150.00 cash bond will then be refunded provided the stand locations are returned to their previous state.

Pursuant to BMC Chapter 8.16, 12 applicants have demonstrated compliance with the BMC by completing and submitting all required forms and documentation. ➢ Fireworks Stand on City -Owned Property
Bellflower Kiwanis Club will utilize City -owned property at 8533 Artesia Boulevard for its fireworks stand and has operated at this location since 2002. Since the property is City -owned, it is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary approval for Bellflower Kiwanis Club to operate at the location.

Such approval must be obtained before commencement of operations on the City -owned property.
➢ New Fireworks Stand & Waiting List
Ramona Elementary PTA, who requested to be placed on the waiting list on January 30, 2026, became eligible to apply for a Fireworks Permit because Bethany Christian Reformed Church and Little House Bellflower, Inc. indicated in January that they will not be hosting fireworks stands this year. In March, the Bellflower Chamber of Commerce also withdrew from hosting a fireworks stand for this year and requested that they be placed on the waiting list for 2027 (see page 4).

CITY OF BELLFLOWER
ORDINANCE NO. 145$
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 8.16 (REGULATING

FIREWORKS) OF THE BELLFLOWER MUNICIPAL CODE TO

EXTEND THE TIME FOR SELLING SAFE AND SANE

FIREWORKS WITHIN THE CITY AND TO ALLOW CERTAIN

FIREWORKS STANDS TO BE LOCATED ALONG SECONDARY

ARTERIAL STREETS
THE CITY COUNCIL DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

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

A. Pursuant to state law allowing cities to authorize the sale and discharge of }safe and sane° fireworks, as defined by state law.

B. In 1958, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 29, which, among other things, established regulations and a procedure requiring a permit to sell "safe and sane" fireworks.

C. The original fireworks provisions were repealed and replaced with the existing fireworks provisions that were adopted in 2002, nearly 25 years ago.

D. An additional day to sell fireworks would extend access to safer, state - approved fireworks, would provide an alternative to illegal fireworks, and would allow for greater revenue for nonprofit organizations serving the community.

E. Amending BMC §8.16.080 to include secondary arterial streets would allow fireworks stands to be located on permittee's property that faces along the majority of Bellflower Boulevard, Clark Avenue, the majority of Woodruff Avenue, Somerset Boulevard, and Flower Street. The proposed amendment would help more of the local nonprofit organizations to be able to place their fireworks stands on their own property rather than having to lease and pay for a location within the C -G and M-1 zones.

Other amendment throughout BMC Chapter 8,16 would remove outdated terms/references and would simplify and improve its readability.

SECTION 2. Action, Based on the above findings,, the City Council approves the amendments to BMC Chapter 81€ (Regulating Fireworks), as set forth in the attached "Exhibit A," which is incorporated by reference.

SECTION 3. Construction. This Ordinance must be broadly construed in order 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.
