PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS AND NON-AGENDA MATTERS
Bishop Leroy Guillory spoke in opposition to removing the members from the Personnel Board and indicated that this would be irresponsible, as there is great work to be done by the Board to move the City forward in a positive direction. Bishop Guillory urged the City Council to work together and improve the City.
Benjamin Holifield commented that there are many things that the City Council must accomplish, so they must work together with the community. He then urged the City Council to assist the owner of the barber shop at Compton and Alameda by providing a canopy for his patrons.
Mr. Holifield stated that Compton must be safe, clean and friendly and concluded by wishing the City Council and the residents of Compton a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Robert Ray urged the City Council to restore all of the Boards, Committees and Commissions for the betterment of Compton. Mr. Ray raised concerns regarding various agenda items and encouraged the City Council to hire or re-hire furloughed employees to provide for costs savings and limit additional outside contracts. He commented that in 2007, there were funds earmarked for the demolition of the Rosecrans bridge, and further questioned the whereabouts of those funds.
Mr. Ray concluded by wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.
Navaline Smith spoke in support of Coach Gerald Pickens and noted that he is having a banquet next month and one of the things he is requesting is trophies for the children. Ms. Smith stated that Coach Pickens is experiencing health challenges and further urged the City Council to provide Coach Pickens with assistance. Ms. Smith also requested assistance with re-instating Emily HartHollifield’s name on the marquee at the Compton Community College Library.
Humberto Espeleta stated that he has provided services to the homeless for many years and emphasized the need for additional services for the homeless throughout the City, particularly near the location of Rosecrans and Alameda. Mr. Espeleta indicated that he would like assistance from the City and further stated that he would like to share a proposal with the City Council.
Renee Bowen commented on a letter she received in December 2021 informing her that the City has omitted placing the trash collection charges on their current property taxes for Compton residents who do not have municipal water services. Ms. Bowen informed the residents who have their property taxes and insurance included in their mortgage payment to contact their mortgage companies and ask for direction on how to resolve this matter before sending any payment to the City. She further stated that if the property owner does not have a mortgage with an impound account or if the house is paid off, the resident should pay the trash collection charges directly to the Compton Municipal Water Department. Ms. Bowen further questioned what steps the City has taken to ensure that this situation does not reoccur.
Assistant City Manager Michael Antwine indicated that Staff is aware of the issue and has prepared information to be placed on the City’s website to inform the community regarding payment of the assessments.
2. Craig Henry commented that a report of the City’s assets should be provided to the City Council and community on a quarterly basis. Mr. Henry further commented that there is no way to move the City forward without a full and functioning Personnel Commission and further encouraged the City Council to put principals before personalities and work together harmoniously to improve the City of Compton.

FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ISSUE A PURCHASE ORDER
TO THE STATE WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD FOR THE
ANNUAL WASTE DISCHARGE PERMIT FEES ($17,834)
SUMMARY
This Resolution authorizes the City Manager to issue a purchase order to the State Water Resources Control Board for annual waste discharge fees in an amount not to exceed $17,834.
BACKGROUND
The Municipal Storm Water Permitting Program regulates storm water discharges from municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4). Storm water is run-off from rain or snow melt that runs off surfaces such as rooftops, paved streets, highways or parking lots and can carry with it pollutants such as: oil, pesticides, herbicides, sediment, trash, bacteria and metals. The runoff can then drain directly into a local stream, lake or bay.
Often, the run-off drains into storm drains which eventually drain untreated into a local water body.
The Los Angeles Water Board regulates discharges from medium and large municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) through the Los Angeles County, Long Beach, and Ventura County MS4 Permits. The permit is issued under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Program.
The Regional Water Quality Control Boards have adopted National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System General Permit (NPDES) storm water permits for municipalities. The permit is issued annually.

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON APPROVING GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT CASE NO. 2021-002, A
REQUEST TO CHANGE THE LAND USE DESIGNATION FROM MIXED
USE TO GENERAL COMMERCIAL FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED
AT 250 N CENTRAL AVENUE
SUMMARY
The Olson Company is requesting that the City Council approve a proposed General Plan amendment changing the General Plan land use designation of 250 N. Central Ave from Mixed Use (MU) to General Commercial (GC).
BACKGROUND
Presently, the existing General Plan Mixed Use (MU) land use designation is not fully consistent with the existing zoning of Limited Commercial. The Olson Company is proposing to change the existing land use designation to increase its’ level of consistency.
STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The Olson Company is proposing to develop a 57-unit attached condominium project on a 2.55 acre site located at 250 N. Central Ave. with a proposed density of 23 unit per acre. However, the existing land use designation of Mixed Use only permits a maximum density of 17 units per acre. Therefore the Olson Company is requesting general plan amendment approval to change the land use designation from Mixed Use to General Commercial. The General Commercial land use designation permits a maximum density of 29 units per acre which is consistent with the 29 units per acre permitted by the existing Limited Commercial zoning. The proposed General commercial designation will achieve a higher level of consistency and allow the applicant to take advantage of the full potential of the zoning.
Environmental Review:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code, Division 13 §21000 et seq.) an Initial Study (IS) for the project was prepared by Parker Environmental Consultants on behalf of the City of Compton. The City of Compton, in its capacity as Lead Agency, has determined that the proposed project requires a Mitigated Negative Declaration and mitigation-monitoring plan, as part of its environmental review.
A Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) is a determination that the proposed project will not have a significant effect on the environment with the implementation of the mitigation measures.
The proposed General Plan Amendment is part of the MND review and Analysis, along with two other application requests.
5. Staff Report – Adopting General Plan Amendment
For Property at 250 N. Central Ave.
JANUARY 18, 2022 – Page 2
The initial study/MND environmental document was posted in the LA County Clerk office in Norwalk, posted on the City of Compton, Community Development Department’s webpage and circulated to service providers, public agencies and adjacent property owners for a 20 day public review period from November 5, 2021 to November 25, 2021.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact to the general fund that will result from the adoption of this General Plan amendment. The net effect of the proposed General Plan amendment will be to increase the permitted residential density from 17 to 29 units per acre. No general fund expenditure is proposed.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council adopt General Plan Amendment 2021-002.

HEARING DATE DECEMBER 8, 2021
Applicant:
The Olson Company
c/o Ben Johnson
3010 Old Ranch Parkway, Suite 100
Seal Beach, CA 90740
Requested Action/Project Description
The Olson Company is requesting the applications cited below to develop a 57 unit three story gated condominium community on a vacant 2.55-acre successor agency owned site located generally at the northeast corner of Compton Blvd. and Central Avenue. Each unit will have a two car gargre in either a standard side by side format or in a tandem format. Two common open space areas are proposed with various amenities along with 20 guest parking spaces.
Location
The subject site is a 111,000 square foot (2.55-acre) rectangular shaped parcel of land located on the east side of N. Central Ave.
Zoning and Land Use
The area surrounding the subject site is developed residentially on the east and north and industrial on the south side.

December 8, 2021
Background
The applicant is proposing to redevelop a vacant lot owned by the Housing Successor Agency that used to be restaurant until demolished. The site has been unused for decades.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Amendment
The applicant is proposing a General Plan Amendment (GPA) for three specific reasons:
1. To bring the existing General Plan land use designation for the site consistent within the existing Limited Commercial zoning.
2. To permit the development of a 100% residential condominium development. Only commercial/residential or Industrial/commercial developments are consistent with the Mixed Use designation. Single land use developments are not consistent with the Mixed Use designation.
3. To permit the proposed development of a residential project at 22 units per acre. The current Mixed Use designation only permits mixed use development at a maximum density of 17 units per acre. The proposed GPA will allow the full utilization of the Limited Commercial zone.
The proposed GPA to General Commercial is appropriate for the site and the surrounding area.
The surrounding area is a combination of traditional single family detached residential neighborhoods to the north and east, and commercial and industrial development to the northwest and south. The proposed project will develop a vacant successor agency owned property into 54 new market rate and 3 affordable housing units. Under the current Mixed Use land use designation Residential is already permitted onsite in combination with commercial development.
The proposed GPA will remove the required commercial component and permit a density increase from 17 to 22 units per acre.
Conditional Use Permits
Two Conditional Use Permits (CUP) are being requested for this project. The first CUP is to permit the development of a gated 57 unit attached condominium unit project with attached two car garages, two common open space areas, and 20 guest parking spaces in the Limited Commercial zone. The second requested Conditional Use Permit is required to apply the “D” Planned Development overlay zoning which grants flexibility to the project to create a more unique and creative project otherwise not permitted by categorical zoning. A unique feature contained within the “D” overlay zoning is the absence of rigid development standards and the encouragement to depart from the rigid development standards in the categorical zoning and Existing

create site specific development standards. This allows the project design to set the minimum development standards in certain areas.
The proposed project will develop a vacant rectangular shaped successor owned property with 57 attached condominiums arranged on a north/south axis parallel to each other from Central Ave to the rear east property line. The property has a narrow 123 foot wide street frontage and is 812 feet deep making site design very challenging. The property is also sandwiched between existing single family residential to the north and east and an industrial warehouse to the south.
The proposed site design locates the residences along the southern half of the site to take advantage of the large windowless industrial build south of the property to create a large separation distance between the existing single family homes and the proposed three story condominiums.
Access/Circulation
Vehicle ingress/egress to the development is from Central Avenue with no secondary/emergency access. The main access entry area will allow the stacking of two vehicles behind the call box without encroaching into the street. The main entry area has also been designed with decorative pavers and to accommodate a turn-around for vehicles that are not granted entrance into the development. Behind the access gate is the primary 22 foot wide driveway that is located along the north property line along with the 20 parallel guest parking spaces and extends to the rear eastern property line.
Interior circulation/access to each condominium garage will be provided by six 20-foot wide perpendicular connecting driveways that provide direct access to each unit’s garage. Each driveway is approximately 110 feet deep and will service ten condominium garages.
Units
There will be four building types proposed are identified as T-100, T-200, T-300 and T-400.
These building types will contain between four to ten units. The buildings will be arranged along a north/south axis separated by alternating garage driveways and common open spaces areas.
The proposed units will range in size from 1193 to 1644 square feet, have two or three bedrooms with two and one-half (2.5) to three (3) bathrooms. All units have an attached 2-car side by side or tandem garage. Some ground floor units will have a front patio and porch space, but every unit will have a second floor balcony for private space. Three of the proposed 57 units will be “Affordable Housing Units”.
Open Space
Abutting the main internal driveway in the middle of the site is the primary common open space area for the project. This common open space area is approximately 4,000 square feet (50 x 80) and contains amenities such as a grass area, BBQ’s, tables, ping pong table two fire pits with chairs and shade structure. There is also a secondary common open space area located in the rear northeast corner of the site containing an open grass area, tot lot, BBQ and table. The site design also proposes three smaller common open space areas (courtyards) between the buildings. These court yard areas are approximately 3,000 square feet.

Amenities
The Planning Development “D” overlay zoning requires a meeting room and four additional onsite amenities. The code provides a list five amenities to choose from and allows the developer to propose alternative amenities subject to Planning Commission approval. The developer (the Olson Company) is proposing the following amenities:
1. Shade Structure
2. Security System for the site and each unit
3. BBQ’s and Tables
4. Tot lot and play structure
5. Two Wi-Fi hot spots (one per open space area)
6. Ping pong table
7. Fire pits and Adirondack chairs
Staff has reviewed the amenities proposed and finds them acceptable with the exception of the absence of the required meeting room and lack of a fire pit/chair amenity in the front courtyard area between units 7 and 15. Staff had advised the applicant throughout the development review process about the code required “Meeting Room”, however the applicant decided to not provide the required meeting room and instead provide a shade structure. Without the code required meeting room the project does not comply with the Zoning Code or CUP findings. Staff only recommends approval of the project with the inclusion of a 500-square foot meeting room with a kitchen and bathroom and has attached a condition of approval requiring the applicant to provide the required meeting room.
As previously mentioned, the project is proposing two fire pits with four Adirondack chairs in two courtyards located in the rear two courtyards of the site. Staff supports the inclusion of the fire pits and chairs, however, staff believes there should be a similar amenity in the front courtyard area. As proposed, there are no visible amenities proposed for the front half of the project site.
Therefore, staff is conditioning the project to construct a third fire pit with chairs in the front yard between units 7 and 15.

The project is proposing twenty guest parking spaces in two areas. The primary guest parking area will have 16 spaces and will be located along the north property lines and will be parallel type parking spaces. The second guest parking area will be located in the middle of the site adjacent to the common open space area.

Traffic Impact Study
A Traffic Impact Analysis/Study was prepared for the proposed development by RK Engineering Group. The report evaluated the potential traffic impacts created by the proposed development.
Although the Project would result in less than significant impact traffic levels on City streets, the Traffic Impact Study recommended the following measures:
Install stop sign, stop bar and stop legend for outbound traffic at the Central Avenue driveway.
Adequate sight distance should be provided and maintained at the Central Avenue driveway per City standards:
Environmental Review:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code, Division 13 §21000 et seq.) an Initial Study (IS) for the project was prepared by Parker Environmental Consultants on behalf of the City of Compton. The City of Compton, in its capacity as Lead Agency, has determined that the proposed project requires a Mitigated Negative Declaration and mitigation-monitoring plan, as part of its environmental review. A Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) is a determination that the proposed project will not have a significant effect on the environment with the implementation of the mitigation measures. All mitigation measures have been incorporated into the report as conditions of approval. The initial study/MND environmental document was posted in the LA County Clerk office in Norwalk, posted on the City of Compton, Community Development Department’s webpage and circulated to service providers, public agencies and adjacent property owners for a 20 day public review period from November 5, 2021 to November 25, 2021.
NOTICING
This case was properly noticed in accordance with California Government Code 65352, 65353 and 65090, Public Resources Code, Division 13 §21000 et seq. and Compton Municipal Code Sections 30-26 and 30-28. The environmental document properly noticed in accordance with CEQA requirements. Public hearing notices were sent to both owners and occupants within a 500-foot radius on November 24, 2021. Notice was also published in the Compton Bulletin on November 17th and 24th, 2021. As of December 1, 2021, no other correspondence either for or against the project have been received.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval to the City Council of the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, General Plan Amendment, and Tentative Tract Map. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve both Conditional Use Permits.
Therefore, staff is bringing the following actions for the Planning Commission to consider:

TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: MUNICIPAL WATER DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON AMENDING THE 2021-2022 FISCAL YEAR BUDGET AND
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A TWENTYFOUR (24) MONTH RENEWAL AGREEMENT WITH AND ISSUE A
PURCHASE ORDER TO BIGBELLY FOR THE RENTAL AND
SERVICING OF SIX (6) DOUBLE KIOSK (BIGBELLY AND
SMARTBELLY) STATIONS ($24,300.00)
SUMMARY
Adoption of this resolution will authorize the City Manager to enter into a twenty-four (24) month renewal agreement with and issue a purchase order in the amount of Twenty Four Thousand Three Hundred Dollars ($24,300.00) to Bigbelly for the rental and servicing of six (6) Double Kiosk Stations – Bigbelly for waste collection and Smartbelly for beverage recyclables to be placed in five (5) City parks: South, Sibrie, Tucker, Wilson and Kelly, along with the Dollarhide Community Center.
BACKGROUND
Bigbelly was founded in 2003 with the goal of transforming one of the least efficient and resource-intensive industries on the planet – waste collection. Cities are either collecting too often or wasting fuel and labor while creating CO2 emissions. Often, cities are not able to keep up with the demands of overflowing trash cans which create litter, health and safety issues.
Bigbelly has been recognized as an industry leader in waste management, environmental and innovation technology spaces as a “C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group” best practice. C40 is a network of the world’s megacities committed to addressing climate change. C40 supports cities that collaborate effectively, share knowledge and drive meaningful, measurable and sustainable action on climate change. Bigbelly offers an enterprise approach to smart connected waste management deployments. The CLEAN Management Console empowers a city to monitor and evaluate station fullness, trends and historical analysis reporting.
The system is designed to be used in public spaces and to help manage litter reduction and achieve beverage recycling in one simple place. It provides the ability to measure the capacity at any given time and to track and schedule pickups thereby achieving better cost savings and providing for a more pleasing collection area. Bigbelly has been implemented in more that forty-seven (47) countries and all fifty (50) states in America.
6. Staff Report – Resolution for Amending Budget, Issue a Purchase Order and Enter 24-month Renewal Agreement with Bigbelly
Janaury 18, 2022, Page 2
Cities such as Long Beach, Santa Monica and Los Angeles have all installed these systems to help improve the ascetics of their communities.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Since 2016, Bigbelly and Smartbelly Stations have been placed in various parks within the city. The Department has been satisfied with the servicing of these Stations and the success provided in helping to cut down on litter in the parks.
Compton is a recipient of the California Beverage Container Recycling Payment Program.
The Bigbelly system is an approved option that can be fully funded. As with the first agreement with Bigbelly, so too with this proposed agreement, the City has the funding available to cover the rental cost of six (6) Double Kiosk Stations, the Connect System and the maintenance and servicing.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The upfront cost for use of the CLEAN software licenses, hardware, installation, set-up, automated system monitoring, cleaning, inspections and customer support is $24,300.00 for a two-year (24 month) contract.
There is sufficient funds in the Recycling Grant to cover this expense. The 2021-2022 Fiscal Year budget needs to be amended to transfer $24,300.00 of grant funding available in Fund 2655 and increase Account No. 2655-850-000-4249.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve this request and adopt the attached Resolution.
