Interface with Existing Equipment
The proposed lighting equipment will interface with existing facility electrical circuits in the same manner as the existing lighting equipment. There will be no changes to the existing major electrical equipment, such as electrical/lighting panels and wiring/conduit runs to the new lighting fixtures.

For this lighting retrofit, CONTRACTOR will install a smart controls system, a modern solution that relies on wireless Bluetooth mesh technology. CONTRACTOR will be able to upgrade the lighting without the disruption and cost of running new control wiring. The installation will not require low -voltage control runs, avoid any ceiling demolition to create control zones, and does not need a centralized control p anel, which simplifies the entire process. This will be a Bluetooth-only deployment without a gateway or cloud connectivity; thus access requires physical proximity. Because the system does not expose internet- facing services, it is not directly accessible from the public internet.

Implementation and Exclusions
The lighting installation is scheduled to take place during normal daytime, and weekday working hours.

CONTRACTOR will work with the City’s facility personnel to reach a mutual agreement regarding scheduling and logistics and to coordinate access and minimize disruptions.

Electrical power interruptions for lighting upgrades will be brief and localized when feasible. Work will be coordinated with facility personnel and will not affect other systems or equipment. CONTRACTOR will submit official requests for approval of utility outages. We understand that approval for these requests will depend on location, time of year, and activities occurring in these areas. Therefore, requests will be tracked to limit overall project schedule delays.

If asbestos is determined to be present during construction, CONTRACTOR will stop work and notify the City. The City will be responsible for the abatement of asbestos-containing materials.

All fluorescent and HID lamps and older generation magnetic ballasts are hazardous waste and must be disposed of properly. Older generation magnetic ballasts normally contain PCBs and/or DEHP, both of which are defined as hazardous waste. Since no marking is required to indicate DEHP in non- PCB ballasts, CONTRACTOR treats all older generation ballast as hazardous waste and disposes of them in accordance with applicable regulations, and will comply with any applicable local codes, policies, or regulations. Lamps will be recycled.

The following items are excluded from the scope of work:
• Any hazardous waste abatement except Lamps and Ballasts as described above or remediation not explicitly defined in the scope of work.
• Replacement of existing lenses for existing lighting fixtures. • Replacement of existing wiring, including those found to be defective during the installation process.
• Replacement of existing conduit, including those found to be defective during the installation process.
• Retrofit of de-energized or abandoned fixtures, beyond the scope of work.

There is no work associated with seismic systems included.
• Creation, adjustments or approvals to any engineering, structural, reflective ceiling, or emergency egress plans/drawings and other detailed documents beyond the As Built Line- by-Line submittals during closeouts and other detailed design documents.
• Changes in switching layouts or patterns, unless explicitly noted in scope of work, including for any path of egress, exit or similar requirement.
• Relocation of existing lighting fixtures to accommodate requests by the City. • Relocation of any furniture or other property is not included in this lighting scope of work. This required task will be the responsibility of the City during implementation.

Interconnection
CONTRACTOR will design the PV and BESS to interconnect with the existing electrical system and will provide controls and programming to match the existing system’s electrical characteristics.

CONTRACTOR will wire the individual PV panels in series to multiple inverters via DC combiner boxes and DC disconnects to transform the DC power into alternating current (AC) power, suitable for use by the buildings’ existing electrical systems. The inverters will synchronize PV-generated and BESS-stored power with the utility grid and will disconnect from the electrical system in the event of a utility power outage to prevent “back feed” to the utility grid (anti-islanding).

The PV and BESS will be integrated through an accumulator panelboard, which will serve as the common point before connecting to the facility’s interconnection point. The BESS will charge from PV generation and discharge strategically based on PV production and facility load profiles to maximize energy savings.

An Energy Management Control System will manage these operations to optimize self -consumption and reduce peak demand for economic benefit.

CONTRACTOR will install a readily accessible, lockable, visible AC disconnect along with an inverter directory and safety warnings for operating personnel. The PV and BESS output will tie into existing electrical panelboard. This will serve as the point of connection into the utility. CONTRACTOR will also provide a data monitoring system.

Interface with Existing Equipment
CONTRACTOR will examine window substrates for compliance with requirements and for conditions affecting performance of solar control film including glass that is broken, chipped, cracked, abraded, or damaged in any way.

CONTRACTOR will clean the window substrates thoroughly prior to installation while protecting the window frames and surrounding surfaces to prevent damage during installation. These Installations shall have no gaps or overlaps, and if seamed, will make seams non-overlapping. During installation, NOERSCO will also custom-cut to the glass with neat, square corners and edges to within 1/8-inch of the window frame.

The City may notice that the freshly installed window film has a dimpled, textured or "lumpy" appearance when looking at or through it. (This is especially true of sputtered metal films.) Sometimes the film will have a milky or clouded look in spots. This is a normal part of the drying process. As moisture from the application solution slowly evaporates through the film, the lumpiness and/or cloudiness will slowly diminish. Within two to eight weeks, it should dry completely, depending on the film product, temperature, and humidity. Normal curing periods range from 7-60 days.

Implementation and Exclusions
Installation is scheduled to take place during normal daytime weekday working hours. CONTRACTOR will work with the City’s facility personnel to reach a mutual agreement regarding scheduling and logistics and to coordinate access and minimize disruptions.

The following items are excluded from the scope of work:
• Windows with existing cracks found during installation will be removed from the scope of work. • Relocation of City property near the windows such as furniture and shelving during installation. • Any hazardous waste abatement or remediation not explicitly defined in the scope of this agreement.
• Correction to any existing code violation identified during implementation.

ADOPTION OF A CITY COUNCIL POLICY ADDRESSING INTERRUPTIONS TO TWO-WAY AUDIOVISUALMEETING SERVICES IN COMPLIANCE WITH SB 707

RECOMMENDED ACTION
1) Adopt City Council Policy No. 54 establishing procedures to address interruptions to two-way audiovisual and telephonic public access during City Council meetings, in compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 707.

PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
None.

DISCUSSION
On October 3, 2025, Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill 707 (SB 707), which significantly amends the Ralph M.

Brown Act governing public meetings of local legislative bodies in California. The legislation is intended to enhance transparency, accessibility, and public participation by strengthening requirements related to remote public access, expanding language accessibility, and establishing procedures for responding to technological disruptions during meetings.

Under SB 707, the Buena Park City Council qualifies as an “eligible legislative body” because the City has a population greater than 30,000. As such, the City Council is subject to enhanced transparency requirements, including the provision of two-way remote public access for meetings.

Beginning July 1, 2026, through January 1, 2030, eligible legislative bodies are required to provide real-time, two- way public access to meetings through telephonic or audiovisual platforms (e.g., Zoom), unless the technology is unavailable at the meeting location or the meeting qualifies for a statutory exemption, such as a site tour.

In addition, SB 707 requires agencies to adopt a formal policy, no later than July 1, 2026, addressing how the legislative body will respond to disruptions in remote access services. The policy must include the following:

In the event of a disruption to remote access services, the legislative body must recess the meeting and make a good-faith effort to restore service.

The recess may last up to one hour while staff attempt to restore service.

If service cannot be restored, the City Council must adopt findings by roll call vote confirming that good-faith efforts were made and that continuing the meeting serves the public interest.

The legislation also authorizes the presiding officer to limit or remove individuals engaging in disruptive behavior, whether attending in person or remotely.

The proposed draft City Council Policy No. 54 establishes procedures for identifying and announcing disruptions, temporarily recessing meetings to restore services, and documenting restoration efforts. If remote access cannot be restored within 60 minutes, the City Council may adjourn the meeting or continue in open session upon making the required findings.

Adoption of this policy ensures compliance with State law prior to the July 1, 2026 deadline and provides a clear and consistent framework for maintaining public access and participation during technical disruptions.

BUDGET IMPACT
There is no direct budget impact associated with the adoption of this policy. Staff overtime costs related to implementing two-way audiovisual services were previously budgeted in Fiscal Years 2025–26 and 2026–27.

CITY COUNCIL POLICY STATEMENT

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: CITY CLERK’S OFFICE

CONTACT PERSON: DIRECTOR OF GOVERNMENT AND

COMMUNITY RELATIONS / CITY CLERK

SUBJECT: DISRUPTION OF TELEPHONE OR INTERNET SERVICE

DURING CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS

It is the policy of the City Council to establish procedures for responding to disruptions in telephonic or internet services that provide two-way remote public access to meetings of the Buena Park City Council, as required by the Brown Act (Government Code § 54953.4, as amended by Senate Bill 707). This policy is intended to ensure transparency, maintain opportunities for public participation, and support the continuity of government operations during technology disruptions.

This policy applies to all open and public meetings of the Buena Park City Council at which remote public participation is provided pursuant to the Brown Act.

BACKGROUND

Senate Bill 707 (2025) amended the Brown Act to require eligible legislative bodies to adopt, on or before July 1, 2026, a policy addressing how the agency will respond to disruptions in telephonic or internet service that prevent members of the public from attending, observing, or participating in a meeting remotely.

This policy is adopted to comply with that requirement and to ensure continuity of public participation during technical disruptions.

DEFINITIONS

For purposes of this policy:

 “Disruption” means any failure, outage, or interruption that prevents members of the public from attending, observing or providing public comment through remote access services.

 “Remote access services” means the two-way telephonic service and/or two-way audiovisual platform used to provide real-time remote public attendance and observation of meetings.

Policy Statement

Page 2 ends

SERVICE DISRUPTION

The City Clerk, in consultation with City staff responsible for meeting technology or information systems, shall determine whether a disruption to remote access services has occurred that prevents members of the public from observing or participating in the meeting remotely.

If the City Clerk determines, or is informed, that a disruption has occurred:

1. The City Clerk shall immediately announce the disruption to the public.

2. The Mayor may then call for a recess while staff attempt to restore the remote access services.

3. If feasible, the City shall post a notice on the meeting webpage or remote access platform informing the public of the disruption and the anticipated reconvening time.

4. Staff shall begin efforts to diagnose and restore the disrupted service.

5. The meeting shall remain in recess for up to one hour (60 minutes) while staff attempt to restore remote access services.

EFFORTS TO RESTORE SERVICE

The City shall make good faith efforts to restore remote access services, which may include any of the following:

 Troubleshooting platform or teleconferencing software  Resetting or replacing audiovisual equipment
 Attempting alternative connection methods, if available  Contacting necessary support staff or service providers  Switching to back-up equipment or platforms, if available

The City Clerk shall document the restoration efforts undertaken.

Policy Statement

Page 3 ends

RECONVENING THE OPEN SESSION

If remote access services cannot be restored during the recess period, the legislative body shall consider adjournment of the meeting to a future date and time in order to ensure public access and compliance with the Brown Act.

Alternatively, if remote access services cannot be restored after one hour (60 minutes), the Buena Park City Council may:

1. Adjourn the meeting to a future date and time; or,

2. Continue the meeting in open session by adopting the following, or a substantially similar finding by roll call vote:

“The Buena Park City Council finds that the City has made good faith efforts to restore telephonic or internet service in accordance with its adopted policy and Government Code Section 54953.4, and that the public interest in continuing the meeting outweighs the interest in providing remote public access.”

Upon adoption of the findings, the legislative body may continue the open session even though remote access services have not been restored.

RECORDKEEPING

The City Clerk shall enter a brief statement into the meeting minutes, including the following:

 The nature and time of the disruption
 The restoration efforts undertaken
 The time the meeting was reconvened (if applicable)

DISCUSS AND PROVIDE DIRECTION REGARDING THE FRIENDSHIP PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT

PREPARED BY PRESENTED BY
Hysun Lee, Associate Engineer Hysun Lee, Associate Engineer

DEPARTMENT HEAD APPROVAL CITY MANAGER APPROVAL
Mina Mikhael, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Aaron France, City Manager

DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND:

At the study session on January 14, 2025, staff presented potential Friendship Park improvements to the City Council. Following the discussion, the City Council directed staff to proceed with conceptual plan development.

On March 25, 2025, the City Council approved a PSA with RJM Design Group, Inc. (RJM) for the Friendship Park Conceptual Plan. On August 12, 2025, staff presented the park’s conceptual plan during a study session. Following the discussion, the City Council directed staff to proceed with the next phase of selecting a consultant for development of the design and construction documents (PS&E package). After soliciting proposals, the City Council awarded a PSA to RJM to provide Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) packages, bidding support, construction support, and final record drawings.

PS&E DEVELOPMENT:

Friendship Park is located within multi-residential community adjacent to Beatty Middle School and spans approximately 6.9 acres. The park currently features a playground, a picnic area with BBQ facilities, a handball court, and restrooms. It has been identified as a priority for improvements in the Parks Master Plan.

On November 11, 2025, RJM staff and city staff held a kickoff meeting to discuss the project timeline, key milestones, overall project scope, objectives, and action items. On January 20, 2026, the design team and City staff conducted a site visit to review existing site conditions and identify required upgrades associated with proposed improvements.

On February 19, 2026, RJM staff and City staff attended the Community Services Commission meeting and presented the Friendship Park Improvement project. On February 25, 2026, RJM submitted 65% PS&E package, incorporating comments received from the Community Services Commission. On March 12, 2026, City staff completed their review of the 65% PS&E package and returned comments to RJM.

On April 7, 2026, City staff presented the project to the Climate Action Commission (CAC) and solicited the CAC’s input. The CAC as well as the Office of Sustainability recommended the following items for consideration:

1. EV chargers in parking lot (approx. $200,000 for 5 to 10 spots ready to receive a charger installation and 3 to include a charger)

2. Solar shade structures ($1.2 Million)

3. Solar lighting at sports courts ($17,500 each)

4. Water efficient fixture at restroom (already existing)

5. Bicycle rack: ($8,000 for two racks)

6. Water bottle refill station ($10,000 each)

7. LED motion-activated lighting in restroom. ($35,000)

8. Big Belly receptacles ($9,000 for Double and $13,000 for Triple – for 5 locations)

9. Additional shade structures around sports courts, dog parks, etc. for heat resilience

10. Mixture of dirt & sand or decomposed granite at dog park in lieu of grass

11. Water spraying & raking for maintenance at dog park

12. Pollinator/butterfly friendly plants with educational signage for pollinator & plants

13. Partner with UC Master Gardeners to pick plants

14. Bioswale/rain garden/use of recycled water

15. Smart irrigation to water based on season
At this time, staff is developing cost estimates for items 9 through 15 and will present preliminary costs at the City Council meeting.

DISCUSSION:

The estimated cost for the current 65% design plan set is approximately $8 million, excluding the additional sustainability and amenity enhancements recommended by the CAC. Costs associated with CAC items 1 through 8 are estimated as noted above. Staff is currently developing cost estimates for items 9 through 15 for council’s consideration.

Staff is seeking City Council direction on the project design and budget, including the incorporation of CAC recommendations in order to proceed with finalizing the PS&E documents. Following City Council direction, staff will finalize the project plans, bid, and award a construction contract.

It is important to note that the approved Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for FY 26-27 does not include a construction budget. Staff has submitted a request to amend the CIP for FY 26-27 to include a $7 million allocation from the undesignated Measure R Fund balance for this purpose, which will be presented to the City Council for approval. Staff is seeking City Council direction on 1) the inclusion of any/all CAC recommendations as part of the project; 2) final approval on the design of Friendship Park; and 3) the total construction budget. Based on this feedback, staff can work with RJM to ensure the final project design meets the proposed budget.

DEPARTMENT HEAD APPROVAL CITY MANAGER APPROVAL
Jim Box, Director of Community Services Aaron France, City Manager

DISCUSSION
Last fall, Council Member Ahn requested City Council review a proposed partnership with Hugh Entertainment to host a 3-day Korean Food Festival in April 2027 at either Boisseranc Park or Peak Park. Approval would authorize staff to begin event planning, coordination, and agreement negotiations.

Hugh Entertainment is an established event production company with demonstrated experience in organizing large-scale cultural events, including the Korean Festival in Los Angeles. Their expertise includes coordinating food vendors, cultural programming, live entertainment, and large crowds.

A representative from Hugh Entertainment approached city staff about a potential partnership to host a three-day K-Food Festival at Boisseranc Park or Peak Park in April 2027. The proposed Korean Food Festival aims to celebrate Korean culture through cuisine, entertainment, and commerce, while fostering community engagement and regional tourism.

The proposed 3-day festival is designed to blend traditional Korean heritage with modern California vibrancy, creating a dynamic and inclusive cultural experience. The event is expected to attract a wide and diverse audience, promoting cross-cultural appreciation and fostering international community connections. In addition, the festival will enhance community engagement, support local economic activity and small businesses, and attract regional visitors, thereby boosting tourism. With an estimated 150 booths and projected attendance of approximately 100,000 guests, the event will also provide high-quality, family-friendly entertainment for residents and visitors alike.

Key components of the festival include:

Culinary Experience: A diverse selection of Korean food vendors and chef-led culinary booths offering traditional and contemporary Korean cuisine.

Global Marketplace: Korean vendors showcasing K-beauty products, fashion, accessories, and cultural merchandise.

Live Entertainment: A dynamic lineup including:

K-Pop Performers
Traditional Korean Cultural Performances
Local and Regional Talent
Hugh Entertainment Responsibilities:

Event programming and production
Vendor recruitment and coordination
Entertainment booking and scheduling
Marketing and promotional support
City Responsibilities:

Secure and reserve the event venue
Coordinate and obtain all required health permits
Provide public safety services, including overnight security Assist in obtaining local sponsorships and community partnerships If approved, staff will:

1. Initiate formal agreement negotiations with Hugh Entertainment

2. Conduct site analysis and confirm venue selection

3. Develop a comprehensive event operations plan

4. Coordinate with relevant City departments and agencies

5. Begin sponsorship outreach and permitting process
Given staff has no prior experience with this event, the closest comparable event in terms of staffing resources is Silverado Days. Below is a breakdown of estimated staff costs for a 3-day festival:

BUDGET IMPACT

ITEM ESTIMATED COSTS COMMENTS
Staff Costs $120,000 Police Officers, PW Staff, PT Staff
Professional/Contract Services $70,000
Perimeter Fencing, Security
Detectors, Lighting and Electrical,
Portable Restrooms
Event Supplies/Equipment $20,000 Plywood, Wood Chips, Signage, Banners
ESTIMATED TOTAL: $210,000
Finally, should the anticipated attendance be at or near 100,000 guests, staff has real concerns about whether or not Boisseranc or Peak Parks have the capacity to host a festival of this size.

City Council Agenda Report

DISCUSS AND PROVIDE DIRECTION REGARDING A FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS FOR THE CONVERSION OFSAN ANTONIO PARK FROM A SINGLE-USE FACILITY TO A MULTI-USE PARK

PREPARED BY PRESENTED BY
Connie Hurtado, Community Services Supervisor Alex Alarcon , Community Services Coordinator

DEPARTMENT HEAD APPROVAL CITY MANAGER APPROVAL
Jim Box, Director of Community Services Aaron France, City Manager

DISCUSSION
On January 13, 2025, Vice Mayor Hoque requested City Council discussion on whether to initiate a feasibility analysis to evaluate the potential conversion of San Antonio Park from a single-use softball facility to a multi-use park that better serves the broader community.

San Antonio Park has historically functioned as a single-use park dedicated primarily to girls softball. The Buena Park Girls Softball League has utilized the field for many years, contributing to recreational opportunities for youth in the community. However, participation in the league has steadily declined over recent years. For the current season, the league consists of only three teams, with approximately 52 registered participants. This decline has resulted in significantly reduced utilization of the park.

Additionally, during recent community canvassing efforts conducted by the Vice Mayor, surrounding residents expressed concerns regarding the park's limited use. Feedback indicated that many residents perceive the park as underutilized and inaccessible, particularly during non-game hours. Some residents also reported avoiding the park during evening hours due to the lack of general activity associated with its single-use design.

The current configuration of San Antonio Park as a single-use facility limits its accessibility and benefit to the broader community. As participation in organized softball continues to decline, the opportunity exists to re-imagine the space to better align with current recreational needs and community preferences.

If directed by the City Council, staff would undertake a feasibility analysis that could include:

Evaluation of existing park usage and community needs
Assessment of potential multi-use design concepts (e.g., open green space, walking paths, playgrounds, fitness areas, and flexible sports areas)
Engagement with stakeholders, including the Girls Softball League and nearby residents Cost estimates and potential phasing strategies
Consideration of safety, accessibility, and long-term maintenance As part of the feasibility analysis, staff would explore potential external funding sources to support park improvements, including:

Statewide Park Development and Community Revitalization Program (SPP): This program provides grant funding for park development projects, particularly in undeserved communities. Eligibility requires that projects include new development elements, making a transition to a multi-use park a strong candidate for funding.

National Fitness Campaign Grant: This grant supports the installation of outdoor Fitness Courts equipped with accessible exercise stations designed for public use. Incorporating such amenities could enhance community health and activate the park throughout the day.

Providence St. Jude Grant: This funding opportunity, offered through Providence St. Jude Medical Center, supports community-based projects that promote health, wellness, and active lifestyles. Improvements such as walking paths, fitness equipment, and open recreational spaces may align well with the grant's objectives and could provide an additional funding source to support park enhancements.

Pursuit of these funding opportunities could significantly offset capital improvement costs associated with park redevelopment.

San Antonio Park presents an opportunity to better serve the community by transitioning from a single-use softball facility to a more inclusive, multi-use recreational space. With declining participation in organized softball and increasing community interest in broader park amenities, a feasibility analysis would provide valuable insight into how best to maximize the park's potential.

Should the City Council provide direction to proceed, staff will:

1. Initiate a feasibility study with community engagement process

2. Coordinate with the Girls Softball League to understand future needs and potential accommodations

3. Develop conceptual design options and preliminary cost estimates

4. Identify and pursue grant funding opportunities

5. Return to City Council with findings and recommendations for further action

BUDGET IMPACT
There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with providing direction to staff. Future costs related to feasibility studies, design, and construction would be identified and presented to the City Council at a later date.
