Summary The Public Safety department is spearheading an initiative to implement video surveillance camera systems across all City and Park facilities. This proactive measure aims to discourage criminal activities and capture video evidence of any unlawful incidents. The objective is to enhance safety by reducing criminal incidents, creating a secure environment for both residents and park users.

Update
We’ve already successfully implemented video surveillance and access control systems at multiple parks, and the current phase focuses on expanding these efforts.

This includes the installation of additional pole-mounted cameras to extend surveillance coverage and integrate these new upgrades with the city’s existing security infrastructure.

We are also working closely with the Parks team to identify and confirm ideal camera placements at parks undergoing construction and updates. In some cases, this may include temporarily removing or relocating cameras to ensure they are not impacted by construction activities and can be seamlessly reintegrated once projects are complete. This collaboration ensures that new security measures are thoughtfully aligned with planned improvements and park layouts.

Our team continues to evaluate system performance and incorporate advanced monitoring technologies to strengthen overall safety. These enhancements are part of our broader commitment to creating a secure environment for all Carson residents, visitors, and employees.

CITY OF CARSON 701 East Carson Street
Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council

CONSENT 21. To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Roobik Galoosian, Risk Manager RM Risk Management Subject: CONSIDER PURCHASING PUBLIC DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS LIABILITY, AND EMPLOYMENTPRACTICES LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICIES (CITY COUNCIL) I. SUMMARY
Recently staff, working with risk management counsel and insurance broker Marsh, reevaluated the City's Directors and Officers (D&O) Liability Insurance program to determine if other options with better coverage terms are available in the marketplace.   Marsh was able to obtain a proposal for a comprehensive D&O program for the City of Carson, which also contains direct Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) coverage with an affirmative duty to defend at a lower self-insured retention than the current PRISM program.  The total limits of the program are $15MM, with a $5MM sublimit for EPLI coverage.  The proposed program is hereby presented for City Council consideration and approval.

II. RECOMMENDATION
APPROVE the City's insurance broker, Marsh, to place Public Directors and Officers Liability insurance with $15,000,000 limit and including coverage for Employment Practices Liability with a sublimit of $5,000,000, with Landmark American Insurance Company, Ironshore Indemnity Inc., and Midvale Indemnity Company, at a total cost of $347,943.

III. ALTERNATIVES
TAKE any other action the City Council deems appropriate.

IV. BACKGROUND
Staff, working with risk management counsel and broker Marsh, have obtained a comprehensive D&O program for the City of Carson, which also contains direct EPLI coverage with an affirmative duty to defend at a lower self- insured retention than the current PRISM program.  The total limits of the program are $15MM, with a $5MM sublimit for EPLI coverage.

Historically, the City had no D&O coverage previously other than the limited coverage provided by the PRISM program.  The CRA’s D&O program, which is similar to the one now being obtained for the City, provided coverage for all of CRA’s defense costs in the CAM litigation.  Significantly, the proposed program offered by insurer RSUI contains no retroactive date and no prior acts exclusion of any kind. The new D&O program includes coverage for:
(a) claims against City directors and officers; (b) City indemnification of its directors and officers; and, most importantly, (c) claims against the City directly for errors or omissions.

As noted, the program includes $5MM of EPLI coverage for EPLI claims with an affirmative “duty to defend.”  This coverage contains a $150,000 per incident SIR, which is $100,000 lower than the current PRISM program, which provides coverage on an “indemnity only”, i.e. reimbursement, basis.  The PRISM program requires the City to pay all of its own defense costs for these EPLI claims until after the claim has been fully adjudicated and then seek reimbursement from the carrier.   The brokers have also affirmatively manuscripted into the policy that Aleshire & Wynder can defend these claims for the City with agreed upon rates paid by RSUI.

Total cost for this program is $347,943.

V. FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for this insurance placement is included and available in FY 2025/26 general fund budget in account 101-65-653-172-6028.

Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council
Tuesday, December 2, 2025, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 23. To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Nathan Freeman, Director of Community and Economic Development CD Administration Subject: CONSIDER AMENDING THE CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH Z&K CONSULTANTS,INC. TO DEVELOP A SPECIFIC PLAN FOR THE CARSON CIVIC CENTER TO ADD AN ALTERNATIVE TO THEHOTEL IN THE FORM OF AN ENTERTAINMENT, RETAIL AND RESTAURANT DEVELOPMENT (CITY COUNCIL) I. SUMMARY
At the January 21, 2025 City Council meeting, Council approved a contract services agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. for the development of a Carson Civic Center Specific Plan.  The City Civic Center Redevelopment Plan envisions modifying the layout, design, and programming of nearly 20 acres of City owned property.  The current uses include the existing City Hall building, adjacent events center, and supporting parking areas.  Initial concepts have included a five-star resort, performing arts theater, potential multi-family housing, interactive museum, teen/innovation center, remodeling of the existing events center, and new City Hall structure with retail opportunities.  An alternative consideration, rather than a hotel, is to develop an entertainment/retail/restaurant complex. To support incorporating this alternative land use into, and updating, the Specific Plan, an amendment to the agreement with Z&K Consultants would be necessary.

As such, staff is recommending City Council approve an amendment to the contract services agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. to increase the total compensation by $54,000.00 increasing the Contract Sum from $550,000.00 to $604,000.00 to allow Consultant to continue to provide services to include an alternative land use on the designated hotel site into the Specific Plan.

II. RECOMMENDATION
TAKE the following actions:

1. APPROVE Amendment No. 1 to the agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. to include an alternative to, and update the Carson Civic Center Specific Plan, to increase the total compensation by $54,000.00 increasing the Contract Sum from $550,000.00 to $604,000.00; and

2. AUTHORIZE the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Z&K Consultants, Inc. agreement, following approval as to form by the City Attorney.

III. ALTERNATIVES
TAKE another action the City Council deems appropriate, subject to compliance with applicable law.

IV. BACKGROUND
At the January 21, 2025 City Council meeting, Council approved a contract services agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. for the development of a Carson Civic Center Specific Plan. The City Civic Center Redevelopment Plan envisions modifying the layout, design, and programming of nearly 20 acres of City owned property. The current uses include the existing City Hall building, adjacent events center, and supporting parking areas. Initial concepts have included a five-star resort, performing arts theater, potential multi-family housing, interactive museum, teen/innovation center, remodeling of the existing events center, and new City Hall structure with retail opportunities.

Specifically, the Carson Civic Center Redevelopment Project aims to re-imagine and invigorate the Civic Center as a thriving, inclusive hub that captures the essence of Carson’s unique cultural heritage and vibrant community. This transformative initiative envisions a harmonious blend of residential, commercial, and cultural spaces designed to create a dynamic downtown atmosphere, drawing people in at all times of the day and night. Through thoughtful urban design, sustainable planning, and a commitment to accessibility, the project will create a welcoming environment that celebrates Carson’s past while looking toward its future.

This revitalized Civic Center will serve as the "heart" of Carson, fostering connections, supporting public events, and establishing a legacy of value and beauty for the community and region.

The initial concept included a five-start resort but, rather than a hotel, an alternative consideration is to develop an entertainment/retail/restaurant complex. This would create a greater variety of options in this space. To support incorporating this alternative land use into, and updating, the Specific Plan, an amendment to the agreement with Z&K Consultants would be necessary. As such, staff is recommending City Council approve an amendment to the contract services agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. to increase the total compensation by $54,000.00 increasing the Contract Sum from $550,000.00 to $604,000.00 to allow the consultant to continue to provide services to include an alternative land use on the designated hotel site into the Specific Plan.

V. FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact as there are funds in the Community and Economic Development Department account number 101-70-701-100-6004 from the 2025/26 Fiscal Year budget to fund the proposed amendment with Z&K Consultants, Inc. in the amount of $54,000.

Task 2: Programming of Civic Facilities
Task 3: Concept Architectural Design of Civic Facilities Task 4: Cost Estimation for Civic Facilities
Task 5: Preparation of CEQA Documentation
The specific plan and architectural concepts will be guided by the Gocument City of Carson Vision Plan, Carson Civic Center (dated May 2024), created by ZAK Consultants and Gruen Associates.

Across Tasks 1 through 5. key activities include:
® Kick-off Meeting: An initial project meeting with the Z&K Team, City of Carson representatives. the City Planning Director, and other relevant stakeholders identified by the City and ZAK This meeting will define the Specific Plan boundaries, establish the general project schedule, set up a biweekly virtual check-in schedule, outline communication protocols, clarify overarching project goals, and review any additional information requirements. e Biweekly Virtual Check-ins: Regular biweekly meetings to maintain project momentum and ensure alignment with project milestones.

Infrastructure | KPFF Consulting Engineers (KPFF) will deliver civil engineering services to support the Carson Civic Center Specific Flan, ensuring compliance with the 2009 California Govamment Code Section 65450-65457: Article 8, which governs Specific Plans. This work will focus om evaluating the capacity and impact of key infrastructure components4public sewage, water, and drainage facilities4related to the proposed Specific Plan project. KPFF understands that the Specific Plan is intended to align with the 2022 Carson 2040 General Plan and Draft Environmental Impact Report. Our team will perform a high4tevel assessment of the effects on public wet utilities (sewer. fire and domestic water, storm drain) specific to the planned area. This assessment is based on the assumption that existing utilities currently meet demand and will nol require upgrades or expansion. This approach will help the City of Carson advance its vision for the Civic Center while supporting sustainable infrastructure planning.

Economics | Land Econ Group (LEG) will conduct a comprehensive real estate market analysis for residential and hotel properties anticipated to be available for private development, which are expected to serve as significant revenue sources supporting the new civic center's public facilities. The analysis will provide historical market context and a forward-looking market outlook over the next tan years, covering the following key land uses and parcels:
e Approximately 150 Rental Apartments: This analysis will assess rental rates, rent per square foot, unit mix, unit sizes, vacancy trends, historical absorption, amenities, and both current and emerging market competition. e Major Hotel: The evaluation will focus on room rates, historical room revenue (including transient occupancy tax data), occupancy rates, hotel class, and the competitive landscape, examining both current and future competitors.

LEG will also provide an initial assessment of the museum and theater developments, focusing on potential land lease revenue and cost impacts, though a full market study for these facilities is not included in this scope. Additionally, LEG will estimate the land value and potential land lease revenue for the proposed hotel and apartment developments. The technical analysis will follow two tracks:
e Comparable Land Transactions: Identifying relevant comparable sales to establish baseline values. e Residual Value Approach: A deeper valuation method based on the project's draft concept plan, calculating land value to translate into a potential lease revenue stream. This revenue is typically a negotiated percentage of the land value, providing a steady income stream based on current market conditions.

This dual approach ensures a thorough assessment of potential land values and lease revenue to support strategic decision-making for the Civic Center redevelopment project.

Mobility/Transportation Analysis | Iteris will conduct a comprehensive transportation impact analysis for the Specific Plan, addressing both CEQA and non-CEQArequirements. The CEQA analysis will assess the project's impact on regional mobility, specifically evaluating Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT), to ensure compliance with State guidelines. The non-CEOA analysis will focus on focal mobility impacts, examining intersection Levels of Service (LOS) in line with the City9s traffic impact study guidelines. In addition, Iteris will collaborate with the Z&K team to develop the mobility chapter of the Specific Plan, contributing insights to shape an integrated approach to transportation planning. The traffic analysis will incude collecting new traffic count data at up to six intersections and two roadway segments in the vicinity of the Specific Plan area, providing a robust data foundation for both CEQA and non-CEQA evaluations.

Draft Specific Plan | The Z&K Team will collaborate closely with the City to establish the content and framework for the Specific Plan. The Administrative Draft Specific Plan will encompass a land use plan, development standards, design guidelines, and a mobility plan to align with the City9s vision for the Civic Center area. The draft will undergo a thorough review by the City9s Planning, Economic Development, Recreation, and Public Works departments to incorporate feedback and secure preliminary approval. The plan will be Geveloped based on the following preliminary outline:

01007.0001/644685.1 A-3
The completed Draft Administrative Specific Plan will be submitted to the City for review, with the Z&K Team making fefinements as requested. Following this, we will present the Draft Specific Plan to the Planning Commission for their recommendation to the City Council. The presentation, conducted by City staff, will include graphic support proviced by the Z&K Team, who will attend the hearing (up to two staff members).

Subsequently, the 28K Team will support City staff in presenting the Draft Specific Plan to the City Council for approval and adoption. This version will incorporate revisions recommended by City staff in response to feedback from Planning Commissioners and the public during the Planning Commission meeting. Graphic content will be supported by Gruen Associates, who will also attend the hearing (up to two staff members). At the direction of City staff, the Z&K Team will prepare the Final Specific Plan, addressing any additional changes requested by the City Council, ensuring that the final document aligns with the City's vision and stakeholder feedback.

Task 2: Programming of Civic Facilities
In collaboration with the City of Carson, the Z&K Team will develop a comprehensive program outlining the space tequirements for civic facilities, including City Hall, a Performing Arts Center, modifications to the existing Events Center, and various site features. The programming of hotel, residential, and museum components will be managed separately by their respective developers.
e City Hall: The Z&K Team will begin by distributing a detailed questionnaire and spreadsheet to City departments and user groups. This form will guide respondents in assessing current space needs for staff, activities, and support areas, along with projected growth over a 20- to 30-year period. Following completion of the questionnaire, the Z&K Team will conduct a series of virtual meetings with each department or user group to clarify responses, address questions, and discuss potential options. The findings will be compiled into a program report documenting the process and outcames.
e Performing Arts Center: The Z&K Team and our theater consultant, Theater DNA, will meet with City representatives to explore the anticipated types of performances, venue character, and specific space needs for a 1,200-seat capacity facility. A detailed space list will be created based on input from the City, covering specific dimensions and requirements for each area, including heights and support spaces. 4, Performance Space Character narrative will also be prepared to Gocument the design and functional requirements of the performance and support spaces. Both the space list and narrative will be reviewed with City representatives to ensure alignment with their expectations. Any necessary updates will be made, culminating in a final program package that accurately reflects the City9s needs and vision for the facility.

Task 3: Concept Architectural Design of Civic Facilities Building on the foundational work from the Specific Plan and programming phase, the architectural concept designs will encompass the following Civic Center elements:

City Hall with Ground-Floer Retail
Performing Arts Center
Modifications to the Existing Events Center
Parking Facilities
Exterior Site Features. including the public plaza and covered walkway Streetscape Concepts along Carson Boulevard
The hotel, residential. and museum components of the Civic Center will be designed separately by their respective developers. The architectural concept design process will be iterative, involving development, review. and refinement of Gesigns in collaboration with the City to ensure alignment with project goals and feedback. Concept designs will evolve from the visions presented in Gruen9s earlier work on the Vision Plan, Carsan Civic Center (dated May 2024, prepared by 2&K Consultants and Gruen Associates) and Gruen's subsequent image studies for City Hall, titled Carson Civic Center Master Plan Allematives (dated August 27. 2024). The concept designs will convey the interior and exterior configurations of the Civic Center through:

Wlustrative Site Plan: A conceptual site plan showing the entire Civic Center, including landscaping elements.

Concept Floor Plans: Floor plans for each level of each building.

Illustrative Elevations: Elevation views of each building to showcase exterior design.

Building Sections: Relevant cross-sections of each structure to illustrate spatial relationships.

Digital JD Rendered Images: Visual renderings to communicate the design vision in three Gmensions. 01007.0001/644685.1 A-4
The focus of this phase will be architectural design, complemented by Theater DNA's performing arts expertise and Gruen Associates9 landscape architecture. This concept design effort will not extend to engineering disciplines or specialty consultants such as structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, civil engineering, acoustics, lighting. or vertical transportation.

Task 4: Estimation for Civic Faciliti
Leland Saylor Associates (LSA) will develop a comprehensive Construction Cost Report that provides conceptual cost estimates for each public facility and amenity outlined in the Specific Plan, including the City Hall, Performing Arts Center, Evant Center modifications, site features, and Carson Boulevard streetscape improvements. These cost estimates will be based on the completed Spacific Plan Report and Concept Architectural Designs, reflecting the level of programming and conceptual detail available at this stage.

The report will estimate approximate construction costs and will include separate suggested allowances for broader project expenses, such as soft costs. Additionally, escalation allowances will be integrated, aligning with the phased development strategy to be detailed in the final Specific Plan report. This approach ensures that the cost estimates account for anticipated project timing, providing the City with a realistic financial framework for project implementation.

Task 5: P . ECEQAD .

Tery A. Hayes Associates (TAHA) will follow these steps to complete the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) process and prepare an Terry A. Hayes Associates (TAHA) wail undertake the following steps to complete the CEQA process and prepare an Initial Study leading to the adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the Carson Civic Center Specific Plan:
e Project Management & Site Reconnaissance: Throughout the environmental review process, TAHA wil join conference calls with the project team and City staff as needed. A field visit to the Specific Plan area and surrounding vicinity will be conducted to evaluate potential environmental impacts and review any pre-existing technical studies and reports relevant to the Specific Pian.
e Screencheck Draft IS/MND. Using existing information and technical studies for the Specific Pian, TAHA will develop a comprehensive Initial Study covering all 21 environmental topics defined by the CEQA Guidelines. Detailed responses will address each CEQA checklist question, and, where necessary. mitigation measures will be proposed to reduce significant impacts to less-than-significant levels. The Screencheck Draft IS/MND will be submitted to the City for review and feadback.
e Technical Analyses: TAHA9s in-house technical specialists will conduct air quality, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and noise analyses tailored to the Specific Plan to address the relevant CEQA checklist areas. For transportation and utilities assessments, TAHA will incorporate findings from analyses previously prepared for the Specific Plan.
e Revisions and Draft IS/MND: TAHA will revise the IS/MND in response to City comments, with up to two review cycles anticipated prior to finalizing the document for public review. Upon City approval, the IS/MND wall be prepared for public distribution.
e Respond to Public Comments & Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP): Following the public cdroulation period, TAHA will draft responses to any public comments received. Additionally, TAHA will prepare an MMRP for the Specific Plan, outlining the framework to ensure implementation of any required mitigation measures. e Notice of Determination (NOD) & Public Hearing: TAHA will prepare the NOD for the City to file with the Los Angeles County Clerk. TAHA will ee ee ee ee ie

BLANKET ADDITIONAL INSURED
(ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS AND SURVEYORS)
This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following:

COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART
The following is added to SECTION II 4 WHO IS
AN INSURED:

Any person or organization that you agree in a
"written contract requiring insurance" to include as
an additional insured on this Coverage Part, but:
a. Only with respect to liability for "bodily injury",
"property damage" or "personal injury"; and
b. If, and only to the extent that, the injury or
damage is caused by acts or omissions of
you or your subcontractor in the performance
of "your work" to which the "written contract
requiring insurance" applies, or in connection
with premises owned by or rented to you.

The person or organization does not qualify as an
additional insured:
c. With respect to the independent acts or
omissions of such person or organization; or
d. For "bodily injury", "property damage" or
"personal injury" for which such person or
organization has assumed liability in a
contract or agreement.

The insurance provided to such additional insured
is limited as follows:
e. This insurance does not apply on any basis to
any person or organization for which
coverage as an additional insured specifically
is added by another endorsement to this
Coverage Part.
f. This insurance does not apply to the
rendering of or failure to render any
"professional services".
g. Inthe event that the Limits of Insurance of the
Coverage Part shown in the Declarations
exceed the limits of liability required by the
"written contract requiring insurance", the
insurance provided to the additional insured
shall be limited to the limits of liability required
by that "written contract requiring insurance".

This endorsement does not increase the
limits of insurance described in Section Ill 4
Limits Of Insurance.
© 2015 The Travelers Indemnity Company. All rights reserved. h. This insurance does not apply to "bodily
injury" or <property damage" caused by "your
work" and included in the "products-
completed operations hazard" unless the
"written contract requiring insurance"
specifically requires you to provide such
coverage for that additional insured, and then
the insurance provided to the additional
insured applies only to such "bodily injury" or
"property damage" that occurs before the end
of the period of time for which the "written
contract requiring insurance" requires you to
provide such coverage or the end of the
policy period, whichever is earlier.

The following is added to Paragraph 4.a. of
SECTION IV -4 COMMERCIAL GENERAL
LIABILITY CONDITIONS:

The insurance provided to the additional insured
is excess over any valid and collectible other
insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or
on any other basis, that is available to the
additional insured for a loss we cover. However, if
you specifically agree in the "written contract
requiring insurance" that this insurance provided
to the additional insured under this Coverage Part
must apply on a primary basis or a primary and
non-contributory basis, this insurance is primary
to other insurance available to the additional
insured which covers that person or organizations
as a named insured for such loss, and we will not
share with the other insurance, provided that:
(1) The "bodily injury" or "property damage" for
which coverage is sought occurs; and
(2) The "personal injury" for which coverage is
sought arises out of an offense committed;
after you have signed that "written contract
requiring insurance". But this insurance provided
to the additional insured still is excess over valid
and collectible other insurance, whether primary,
excess, contingent or on any other basis, that is
available to the additional insured when that
person or organization is an additional insured
under any other insurance.

COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY
The following is added to Paragraph 8., Transfer
Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us,

against any person or organization because of
payments we make for "bodily injury", "property
damage" or "personal injury" arising out of "your
work" performed by you, or on your behalf, done
under a "written contract requiring insurance" with
that person or organization. We waive this right
only where you have agreed to do so as part of
the "written contract requiring insurance" with
such person or organization signed by you
before, and in effect when, the "bodily injury" or
"property damage" occurs, or the "personal injury"
offense is committed.

The following definition is added to the
DEFINITIONS Section:

part of any written contract under which you are
required to include a person or organization as an
additional insured on this Coverage Part,
provided that the "bodily injury" and "property
damage" occurs and the "personal injury" is
caused by an offense committed:
a. After you have signed that written contract;

effect; and
c. Before the end of the policy period.
