He referenced Item Number Two and asked the City Manager to explain why the company that prepared the presentation is not here to answer questions from citizens.

Vanessa Cain expressed a concern for the recruitment process used to select the city manager.

Tanya Lewis petitioned Councilperson Spicer to address the homeless population living across the street from Council Chambers.

Travis Martin presented the City Council with photos of the alleyway located adjacent to 136 th and Stockwell Street.

Miller Martin stated that his home is the only property on the street that does not have a usable driveway. He made comments about the Eazy Street Street-Naming Ceremony held a few weeks ago and cited a need for the community to band together to make Compton a better place to live.

5. Lynn Boone thanked the citizens of Compton for their cards, flowers, monetary gifts and prayers.

She complimented Councilperson Darden on the PowerPoint presentation she offered and mentioned the need for handicapped ramps inside Council Chambers.

City Clerk McDaniel made the following announcements: The nomination period began on Monday, November 13 and ended on Friday, December 8. Appointments were encouraged so that each candidates’ questions and concerns could be addressed - reducing the amount of wait time for candidates returning qualification documents. The scheduling of appointments was used in previous City of Compton elections.

CITY CLERK OF THE CITY OF COMPTON MAYOR OF THE CITY OF COMPTON July 16, 2024

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

COMPTON AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER

INTO A CONTRACT WITH AND ESTABLISH A PURCHASE

ORDER FOR MELVINNA SHARP FOR TRANSCRIPTION AND
PREPARATION OF MEETING MINUTES OF THE CITY’S

LEGISLATIVE BODIES AND SPECIALIZED ELECTRONIC
SERVICES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 ($43,200) AND

ESTABLISH A PAYMENT FOR A PAST DUE BALANCE FOR
SERVICES IN FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024 FOR THE AMOUNT OF
NINE THOUSAND NINE-HUNDRED DOLLARS ($9,900)

SUMMARY
The City Clerk requests that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Melvinna Sharp for a period of twelve (12) month (i.e. July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025) and establish a purchase order in the amount of Forty-Three Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($43,200.00) for payment of services for transcription and preparation of meeting minutes of the City’s legislative bodies and specialized electronic services for the Fiscal Year 2024-2025. Payment of a past due invoice of Nine-Thousand-Nine-Hundred Dollars is also being requested.

BACKGROUND
The City Clerk is responsible for recording and maintaining a full and true record of all of the proceedings of the City’s legislative bodies; that is, the Compton Public Finance Authority, the Urban Community Development Commission, the Successor Agency to the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Compton, and the City Council (“legislative bodies”).

The City contracted with Melvinna Sharp a few years ago to transcribe and prepare the meeting minutes for the Compton Public Finance Authority, the Urban Community Development Commission, the Successor Agency to the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Compton, and the City Council (“legislative bodies”). Use of her services allows the minutes to be prepared and submitted to the various legislative bodies for review and filing in a timely manner.

Melvinna Sharp FY 2024-2025
July 16, 2024, page 2
Additionally, Ms. Sharp’s responsibilities have included providing a variety of technological services attendant to the agenda preparation process for the City’s legislative bodies, such as:

1. Export the consent Agenda from OnBase Live to the Media Manager.

2. Transcribe the spoken word from video files using sophisticated software (OnBase Live/Media Manager internet-based software).

3. Include accurate time stamps for agenda items (Public Comments on Agenda and Non-Agenda Items, Consent Agenda, etc.).

4. Perform application programming operations (enters specialized vocabulary into software) to assist in the rapid and accurate translation of spoken information into electronic and print materials; (roll call, motions, votes, resolution numbers, ordinance numbers, report out of closed session items, and adjournments).

5. Records amendments to resolutions and ordinances, incidental motions, requests to withdraw or modify motions, special privileges, and disciplinary procedures.

6. Evaluate and maintain software to determine suitability.

7. Identifies and takes corrective action to resolve routine operational problems.

8. Publishes training streams as necessary.

9. Provide user accessibility to archived meetings via the Internet.

10.Operates peripheral equipment such as printers, desktop computers, and copiers to provide hard copies of summary minutes.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The City Clerk’s Office is minimally staffed; thus, it is vital to employ the services of an experienced and reliable provider to assure that meeting minutes are prepared and submitted to the various legislative bodies for review and filing in a timely manner. Thus, informal quotes were sought through [email protected], which is a network of current and former California City Clerks. There were only three (3) responses to our request.

Melvinna Sharp – $900.00 per meeting date
Debra Duncan - $1200.00 per meeting date
Minute Solutions - $220.00 per hour
The three quotes received were evaluated on experience, professionalism, knowledge, etc. Melvinna Sharp’s quote was the lowest quote received.

Transcribe Legislative Bodies Meeting Minutes
Melvinna Sharp FY 2024-2025
July , 2024, page 3
Additionally, the City has previously contracted with Ms. Melvinna Sharp and has found her service reliable and very satisfactory.

Ms. Sharp will be compensated at a flat rate of $900.00 per week for each week that meetings of the legislative bodies are conducted as well as any special meetings called.

FISCAL IMPACT
The funding is currently budgeted in the City Clerk’s Fiscal Year 2024-2025 budget in Account No. 1001-470-000-4262.

The funding for the services in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 existed in the Account No. 1001-470-000-4262 and was not used, therefore funds are available in this account within the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 ledger.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution.

FROM: CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO AN

AGREEMENT AND ESTABLISH A PURCHASE ORDER FOR ALL STAR

SUMMARY
Adoption of this Resolution will authorize the City Manager to enter into a twelve (12) month agreement (i.e. July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025) with All Star Interpreting Service (“All Star”) to provide Spanish language translation and interpretation services for the public meetings of the City’s legislative bodies for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and establish a purchase order in the amount of Thirty-Nine Thousand, Six Hundred Dollars ($39,600).

BACKGROUND
The City Council conducts much of the City’s business during its weekly public and televised meetings in the English language. A substantial portion of the City’s population is Spanish speaking and the City believes that it is important for all residents of the City to understand and participate in the governance of the City, thus the need to provide interpretation and translation services for City Council meetings and other community meetings. The City conducts public meetings of its legislative bodies up to four (4) times monthly.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The Clerk’s Office does not have staff to perform the professional services needed to provide professional, certified language translation and interpretation services for the various City’s legislative bodies. Thus, informal proposals were sought and received from four (4) firms; to wit:

All Star Interpreting Service - $850.00 flat rate per meeting Bilingual Services International - $595.00 times 2 Interpreters (required) up to 3 hours, $195.00 per each additional hour per interpreter

July 23, 2024, Page 2
Medrano Interpreting - 1600.00 times 2 Interpreters (required) up to 6 hours for a total of $3200.00 per meeting.

Reliable Translation Inc. - $228.00 times 2 Interpreters (required) up to 2 hours, (additional cost {NOT SPECIFIED} per every 15 minutes, and mileage) Proposals received were evaluated on experience, professionalism, knowledge, etc.

While each of the firms seemingly were qualified to adequately perform the tasks needed, All Star Interpreting Service proposed fees were most competitive and reasonable.

Additionally, the City has previously contracted with All Star Interpreting Service and has found their services reliable and very satisfactory.

All Star has been providing translation and interpreting service for over twenty-nine (29) years. All Star is a member of the American Translators Association, State and Federally Certified Interpreters and provide services for virtually every language.

All Star will provide professional Spanish language interpretation and translation services for all of the public meetings of the City’s legislative bodies (i.e. City Council, Public Finance Authority, Urban Community Development Commission and Successor Agency), including regular, special and emergency meetings, which includes translation for the City’s cable telecast of the aforementioned meetings. The contract with All Star will be for one (1) year (July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025). The costs of services will remain at the rate of Eight Hundred Fifty Dollars ($850.00) per date of services rendered for the entire term of the agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT
The costs for services for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 is estimated at Thirty Five Thousand Dollars ($39,600.00). Funds for this expenditure are available in:

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, the City Council conducts much of the City’s business during its weekly public and televised meetings in the English language; and
WHEREAS, a substantial portion of the City’s population is Spanish speaking; and WHEREAS, the City believes that it is important for all residents of the City to understand and participate in the governance of the City, thus the need to provide interpretation and translation services for City Council meetings and other community meetings; and WHEREAS, All Star warrants that it is specifically trained, experienced, competent, and has the resources to provide such services which will be required by this Agreement; and WHEREAS, by Resolution No. ___________, adopted on the _____ day of _________, 2024, the City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into an agreement with All Star to provide interpretation and translation services to the City; and WHEREAS, All Star is willing to render such professional services, as hereinafter defined, on the following terms and conditions.

NOW, THEREFORE, All Star and City, for the consideration, terms and conditions herein described, mutually agree as follows:

AGREEMENT:

1.Services to be rendered by All Star.It is the mutual understanding of the parties that the All Star shall perform and be responsible for providing professional Spanish language interpretation and translation services for all of the public meetings of the City’s legislative bodies (i.e. City Council, Public Finance Authority, Urban Community Development Commission and Successor Agency), including regular, special and emergency meetings, which includes translation for the City’s cable telecast of the aforementioned meeting.

All Star shall be responsible for correcting and completing all errors and omissions related to the services provided by the All Star for this Agreement at no additional cost to the City. “Errors” and “Omissions” for purposes of this paragraph are defined to mean a failure by the All Star to meet the standards of its profession as set forth in the preceding paragraph.

Acceptance by City of the work performed under this Agreement does not operate as a release of said All Star from such professional responsibility for the services performed.

2. Duration of Contract.The term of this Agreement shall be for the period of July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025, unless this Agreement is terminated as provided herein.

Adjustment in the total compensation will not be effective until authorized and approved by written contract amendment.

Progress payments may be made in arrears based on the percentage of work and deliverables completed by the All Star. If All Star fails to submit the required deliverable items according to schedule, unless the failure is through no fault of the All Star or the schedule is altered/extended by the City, the City shall have the right to delay payment and/or terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions noted herein.

All insurance required hereunder shall be primary with respect to any insurance maintained by the City.

Coverages and Limits. All Star will maintain the types of coverages and minimum limits indicated below, unless the Risk Manager or City Manager, in consultation with the City Attorney approves a lower amount. These minimum amounts of coverage will not constitute any limitations or cap on All Star's indemnification obligations under this Agreement.

City, its officers, agents, volunteers and employees make no representation that the limits of the insurance specified to be carried by All Star pursuant to this Agreement are adequate to protect All Star. The coverage will contain no special limitations on the scope of its protection to the below-indicated insureds except for Workers Compensation. All Star will obtain occurrence coverage, excluding Professional Liability, which will be written as claims-made coverage. If All Star believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate, All Star will obtain such additional insurance coverage, as All Star deems adequate, at All Star's sole expense.

11.1 Commercial General Liability Insurance. $1,000,000 combined single- limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If the submitted policies contain aggregate limits, general aggregate limits will apply separately to the work under this Agreement or the general aggregate will be twice the required per occurrence limit.

11.2 Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability. Workers' Compensation limits as required by the California Labor Code and Employer's Liability limits of $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury. Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability insurance will not be required if All Star has no employees and provides, to City's satisfaction, a declaration stating this.

Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City. Prior to City's execution of this Agreement, All Star will furnish certificates of insurance and endorsements to City.

All Star has five (5) business days to deliver any documents owned by City and all work in progress to City address contained in this Agreement. City will make a determination of fact based upon the work product delivered to City and of the percentage of work that All Star has performed which is usable and of worth to City in having the Agreement completed. Based upon that finding City will determine the final payment of the Agreement. In the event City elects to terminate, City will have the right to immediate possession of all Work Product and work in progress prepared by All Star, whether located at the project site, at All Star's place of business, or at the offices of a subcontractor.

In this event and upon request of City, All Star will assemble the work product without charge and put it in order for proper filing and closing and deliver it to City.

Below you will find answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). If you do not find the answer to your question here, please ask your service representative.

TRANSLATIONS
How do I place an order for a translation or translations? Written Translations: If you have a translation request, simply email it to [email protected] and attach the document(s), note the language or languages to be translated into and the date by which you need the translation completed and returned to you.

If there is any other information, reference material such as a glossary, or any other special requests for the translation or formatting, just include it in the email request. If your document is very large (10 MEG or larger), you can request a secure link by email that will allow you to upload your files safely with a simple drag and drop of the files.

Your service representative will usually get back to you in no more than 30 minutes confirming the request. If there is any missing information, the service representative will ask in the return communication. Other than that, we will get right on it and get it completed and right back to you! Can I make a translation request at any time and for a very short turnaround time?
YES, you can. In almost all cases we can meet your request. If we know we honestly cannot, we will inform you. But be assured we do have the resources to meet very tight turnaround times no matter the size of the request.

What is a RUSH request for a translation and what is the charge? A RUSH request is any request that requires a turnaround of 24 hours or less. Be advised, this definition can change depending on volume and the nomenclature (highly specialized such as scientific, medical, etc.).

Your service representative will let you know right away but be assured almost all RUSH requests can be fulfilled for the deadline and if that is not the case for any reason, you will be informed right away to work out the best solution. The charge for a RUSH translation is $0.06/word in addition to the standard price. Small documents incurring a flat rate base fee DO NOT receive any extra charge for RUSH.

What are FLAT RATE minimum charges?
Very small documents will have a flat rate minimum (Base) charge. The size of a flat rate document is variable depending on the language, but generally falls in the range of 250-400 words or if your document is larger than this minimum size, a per word rate for that language applies instead.

Flat rate charges for minimum word translations can vary slightly, so please always check with your Service Representative.

Can a translation order be cancelled?
No, translations are started almost immediately, and because translators are paid in full for translations once assigned, we do need to also charge in full for the translation after an allowed grace period of 20 minutes.

Does Reliable Translations use Machine-Translation Software or Google to Translate?
NO. Our Translations are 100% Human Generated and this is expressly stated in the Reliable Translations Contract with Linguists. 100% Human Generated Translations also ensure the target audience is receiving the communication in its intended form.

INTERPRETING
How do I Place an order for an Oral Interpreting request? Oral Interpreting: For an interpreting request simply email [email protected]. Please include the language(s) needed, the date, the starting time and ending time, and the type of meeting. If it is an on-site meeting, include the location with the complete physical address, or if it will be virtual (Zoom, Skype, etc.) include the Zoom link and any other needed information such as an agenda for the virtual event/meeting.

If you need written document translations to complement your event, such as a PowerPoint or printed agenda, let us know and we can get it translated.

Your Service Representative will contact you within 30 minutes of the request to confirm arrangements and make sure your interpreting service is fully set up! For any interpreting request, you can always call (818) 484-8673 Ext. 702 to discuss it with your Service Representative.

Can I schedule an interpreting job with very short notice? Is there an extra fee?
YES, you can schedule an interpreting job with as short a notice as just minutes before the event, if you would like.

NO, there would not be an extra fee.

The only problem with ordering on short notice would be the availability of Interpreters to cover it and simply if we can schedule them and get them there on time. In this case, as soon as you schedule the job, covered or not, Reliable Translations charges the full rate. So it is simply NOT advised to schedule interpreting events with any shorter notice than 24 hours prior to the event or meeting.

The BIGGER the event and more languages required, the longer the advance notice we advise. If there are any issues whatsoever with coverage, your Service Representative will let you know right away. But be assured we can cover pretty much anything you throw at us.

We just ask that you give us as much advance notice as possible, and the bigger the event and the more languages needed, any additional time given makes it easier for all parties involved.

What is the cancellation policy on Interpreting assignments? Any Interpreting Job received by Reliable Translations which is confirmed with you, the client, that is cancelled within 24 hours of the scheduled start time, is considered a late cancellation and the full job as scheduled will be charged.

What is Simultaneous Interpreting:

Simultaneous Interpreting means a linguist is interpreting a meeting or event while the speaker speaks (simultaneously to the speaker). For in-person meetings, this usually requires a transmitter and receivers for those hearing the interpreter. Simultaneous basically means “At the same time.” This style is used in almost all meetings and events where there is a speaker and multiple people are being interpreted for. It is even used for a single audience member if the speaker does not want to be interrupted while speaking.

What is Consecutive Interpreting?
This is interpreting during which the interpreter waits for the speaker to say about 2 or 3 lines. Then the speaker pauses so the interpreter can interpret those lines for the other party. This protocol is usually explained to the speaker, if necessary, before the event begins, so the speaker is aware to stop after a few lines, allowing the interpreter to interpret them. The interpreter can ask/answer questions back and forth or convey the answers to the speaker. This is common for medical environments, one on one conversations, and interviews of any kind.

Can I send a translation or interpreting request at ANY time? YES. You can email your request ANYTIME to the email addresses mentioned above. They will be answered as soon as they are received within 30 minutes during normal business hours Monday-Saturday. You may need to give it a little more time on a Sunday or after 6:30 PM PST. Besides that, you will always get an answer within 30 minutes. In fact, it is very common for our Service Representatives to answer request emails within 10 minutes! How is interpreting billed in terms of hours?
Reliable Translations does have a minimum number of hours for any interpreting job, which is based on the booked time. The billing requirements are listed in bullet points below:
• 1-hour minimum for telephonic interpreting
• A 1.5 hour minimum per language for any virtual event/meeting (Zoom, Skype, etc.).
• A 2-hour minimum for any ON SITE event/meeting (Physical location that the interpreter must travel to).
• For any virtual event using Simultaneous Interpreting, 2.5 hours or more requires 2 interpreters per language. Specialized scenarios such as medical, scientific, or specialized terminology may require a partner for an even shorter meeting, and this is determined by your Sales • Representative or Service Representative. Most scenarios are NOT specialized.
• For any ON SITE Simultaneous Interpreting, a meeting of 3 hours or more requires 2 interpreters per language.
• For ON SITE Simultaneous interpretation of 2.5 hours or more with no breaks, 2 or more interpreters per language will be required. • Consecutive Interpreting usually does not require 2 interpreters per language except under certain scenarios such as a large audience for which 2 or more interpreters per language may need to “roam” to handle “Question and Answer” sessions for people in the audience. • If an interpreting session runs beyond the originally booked ending time, we add charges in 15-minute increments, rounded to the nearest 15 minutes, for each interpreter on the assignment. (Please be sure to book enough time when you set up your assignment, since interpreters may have other booked assignments later that day that they must honor. They will continue if available.)
• For ASL (American Sign Language) we often need to book 2 interpreters for assignments even shorter than 2 hours. This language is physically taxing as well as mentally, so having an interpreting partner is needed more frequently. Check with your service representative and provide details of your request.

Are there any other charges for Interpreting services?
• There could be, and your Sales or Service Representative will let you know upfront what these would be. Below are some other possible charges:
• Mileage for ON SITE interpretation. This charge is usually for traveling distances of 25 miles or more each way. (We use the standard IRS mileage reimbursement rate announced yearly.)
• For On-Site Simultaneous Interpreting Reliable Translations charges for equipment rental if you are not providing the equipment for Interpreting.

For any virtual event, if a Technician for the virtual platform is needed, we do charge an hourly rate for the Technician. Where there are multiple languages, or multiple speakers in a virtual event, your Service • Representative can discuss any needed set up time for Interpreters to come online for testing of the set-up arrangements in coordination with staff and technician before the event commences.
• As noted above, overtime beyond the booked time is charged in 15- minute increments and will be added after the event.
• ASL could require a second “partner” interpreter at or even before the 2- hour mark.

Please also note: Any Interpreting job received within 24 hours of the scheduled start time and also confirmed within 24 hours of the scheduled start time which is then cancelled before the scheduled start time will be charged in full.

RELATED FAQs
Does Reliable Translations outsource ANY of its interpreters or translators?
NO. Reliable Translations only uses Professionals in the field of Interpreting and Translations. Reliable Translations has a direct 17-page binding Contract with every linguist that we use. This alone ensures a professional level of quality for every job we do as we only pull from these resources.

Reliable Translations also does quality checks on every linguist to ensure a continued high level of quality.

Are there any extra charges or hidden fees after I get my initial quote? NO. Reliable Translations is unique in this field as our final quoted price is always the FINAL price. You will never incur ANY additional fees, hidden charges, or surcharges with Reliable Translations. If your assignment changes from your initial booking by running overtime, we charge the additional time in 15-minute increments, but we use the same hourly rate, not time and a half, or double time.

Other translation and interpreting companies sometimes quote a very low price, but by the time the job is completed or is in progress, the job has incurred many additional fees. This is something you will never experience with Reliable Translations.

How do I pay?
In your INITIAL sale (your first purchase) we will usually ask for a 50% deposit. All subsequent requests/work can be billed to your company or purchasing department. We do understand that many Government entities, Schools and Corporations only pay by invoicing and/or Purchase Order. In this case your Sales Representative will work out the best payment option for you on your initial quote/sale.

What if there is a problem with any Translation or Interpreting job? Immediately contact your Customer Service Representative and he or she will handle it right away.

Does Reliable Translations outsource its tech/customer support? NO. Reliable Translations has employees in 3 separate locations in the United States that cover all three regions (West, Central and East). After your initial sale/order, you will be set up with a Service Representative who will handle ALL your future job requests from that point forward and any service or tech questions.

You will have a dedicated Service Representative who is available by phone during business hours and email 7 days a week.

Can I call with a question at any time?
You can call (818) 484-8673 at any time, but the hours for our main line are limited to 8:30 AM to 6PM PST Monday through Friday with occasional phone availability on Saturday.

If you are calling outside those hours you may not get a Service Representative on the line and it would be better to email your request or call back during the regular business hours.

Is there anything else I need to know that is not covered here? If there are any questions you may have that are not covered here, your sales or service representative will help you right away. Please feel free to call ANYTIME or email ANYTIME. Our keyword is RESPONSIVENESS.

During regular hours we will be there for anything you need and outside those hours, please send us an email, and we will get back to you ASAP.

You can also call and leave a message if outside regular hours.

Reliable Translations is here to service you and your team to the highest standards possible. We very much look forward to taking care of all your translation and/or interpreting needs!

Dear Ms. Godwin,

As promised, I have attached a proposal, for the interpreting services we will provide for the City Council Meetings and any other Community Meeting to be held in Compton from this date forward.

For the purposes of pricing, this proposal assumes the consideration that the meetings will last more than 3:30 hrs. Hence, the cost will remain the same whether they lasts 3:30 and up to 6:00 hrs. In case the meeting lasts under the 3:30 hrs., the City of Compton will receive a discounted invoice as we will only charge you the basic fee of $550.00. In an effort to partner with the City once again, we are barely increasing our fees for the first time since 2012 to reflect an increase on our Interpreters pay for cost of living.

I look forward to working with you again. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (213)400-0925.

Sincerely,

All Star Interpreting Service, Inc.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A FIVE-YEAR
AGREEMENT ($165,500) WITH BLX GROUP LLC (BLX), AMEND THE FY2024-2025 CITY BUDGET, AND ISSUE A PURCHASE ORDER TO

BLX FOR CONTINUING DISCLOSURE, ARBITRAGE REBATE
COMPLIANCE, AND S.B. 1029 ANNUAL DEBT TRANSPARENCY

REPORTING SERVICES FOR CITY BONDS FOR THE FIRST YEAR OF SERVICE ($59,500).

SUMMARY
Adoption of this Resolution will authorize the City Manager to enter into a five-year agreement with BLX Group LLC (BLX) ($165,500), amend the FY2024-2025 City budget to transfer ($59,500) between various accounts, and issue a Purchase Order to BLX to provide Continuing Disclosure, Arbitrage Rebate Compliance, and S.B. 1029 Annual Debt Transparency Reporting Services for City bonds ($59,500) for the first year of service.

BACKGROUND
The City needs technical expertise in several disciplines to advance the goals and policies of the Mayor and Council in order to actively respond and implement bond disclosure requirements applicable to the City of Compton. In prior years the City issued bonds. As part of the agreements reached in the various bond transactions, including the Continuing Disclosure Agreements, it was required that the City perform certain disclosure activities.

One of the required activities is to disseminate and post the required disclosures in a pre- determined and designated location, also known as a municipal bond disclosure platform.

Additionally, other bonding disclosure requirements include arbitrage rebate compliance services and S.B. 1029 Annual Debt Transparency Reporting Services. The City does not have the technical knowledge to efficiently perform these required services. Therefore, the City needs an agent to disseminate and to post onto municipal bond platforms certain required disclosures related to its bond-related activity on an on-going basis.

A description of the City’s past Bond issues is attached as Exhibit A.

Excerpts from past City Bond Disclosure agreements, which are still currently obligations of the City, is attached as Exhibit B.

Further, Resolution No. 25,387 which was approved by Council on December 8, 2020, adopted a Debt Management Policy and a policy for disclosure procedures. In this policy, in Section 6, “Debt Management and Administration”, it states,

8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8. Staff Report - A Resolution Authorizing A 5-Year Agreement and Purchase Order to BLX Group LLC For Continuing Disclosure, Arbitrage Rebate Compliance, And S.B. 1029 Annual Debt Transparency Reporting Services For City Bonds July 16, 2024
2 “The City Manager, or City Treasurer, and/or the City Controller, or his/her designee (the “Designated City Representative”), is hereby appointed as the City official responsible for the following:
Ensuring that the City’s debt is administered in accordance with its terms, federal and State law and regulations, and best industry practices.
Debt issuance including reviewing and recommending appropriate structures for new debt issuances
Debt management, including assigning staff with certain day-to-day responsibilities.
Working with the City Manager, City Controller and other staff deemed appropriate in formulating the City’s debt management plans, executing these plans, and ensuring appropriate debt management.
Keeping the City Council informed of the City’s debt-related activities through informational reports, briefings, or workshops. Select service providers as necessary to assist meet legal requirements, assist with the debt issuance, and minimize debt costs. Such providers may include bond and disclosure counsel, financial advisors, underwriters, trustees, verification agents, escrow agents, arbitrage consulting, special tax consulting, and other consultants as needed. Communicating with rating agencies, investors, and other debt related service provides about the City’s financial condition
Review outstanding debt for refunding opportunities
Maintain compliance with the Investment Policy and disclosure requirements in the City’s Disclosure Policy”

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
In November 2021, the City entered into an agreement with Willdan to perform these bond disclosure and dissemination services for the Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2021, however the agreement was later deemed invalid. Staff was unaware of the invalidity of the agreement with Willdan and continued to use Willdan’s disclosure services until the discovery of the invalidity of the agreement.

Additionally, staff had discovered that the use of the firm DAC, another firm providing bond disclosure and dissemination services for Successor Agency bonds during calendar year 2022, also was initiated by an agreement that was later deemed invalid. Similarly, Staff was unaware of the invalidity of the agreement with DAC and continued to use DAC disclosure services, until the discovery of the invalidity of the agreement.

Staff Report - A Resolution Authorizing A 5-Year Agreement and Purchase Order to BLX Group LLC For Continuing Disclosure, Arbitrage Rebate Compliance, And S.B. 1029 Annual Debt Transparency Reporting Services For City Bonds July 16, 2024
3 This discovery prompted staff to prepare a new Request for Proposal for Ongoing Bond Disclosure and Filing Services. The Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued two times with no responses. The RFP was published in the Compton Bulletin, and on the City website, and had been emailed to the two known previous providers. The RFP was published on May 10th 2023 and again on June 16th, 2023.

After two failed RFP attempts, staff contacted other City vendors for referrals and was referred to BLX Group LLC for the needed services.

Although the prior agreements with Wildan and DAC were deemed invalid, the City had engaged with more than one firm to provide the services for the different bonds that the City had issued. However, at this time, staff is recommending to have one vendor provide these services for all of the City’s bonds. This is mainly due to the lack of responses to the Request for Proposal as described above.

Staff is requesting authorization be given to enter into a five-year agreement with BLX Group LLC for Continuing Disclosure, Arbitrage Rebate Compliance, and S.B. 1029 Annual Debt Transparency Reporting Services for all City bonds for an amount of ($165,500) to be yearly allocated as follows:

Yr. 1 - $59,500 (Includes a one-time Arbitrage Rebate Compliance fees) Yr. 2 - $26,500
Yr. 3 - $26,500
Yr. 4 - $26,500
Yr. 5 - $26,500
Please see Exhibit C for cost allocation for each bond

FISCAL IMPACT
As illustrated in the yearly breakdown for the services of BLX Group LLC, the proposed 5-yr agreement is not-to-exceed $165,500. An amendment to the City’s FY2024-25 budget is requested to appropriate funds from Lease Revenue Bond Series 2008, Sewer Bond 2009, Water Bond Fund 2009, MTA Taxes Bond, and Successor Agency Bond Series 2022A and B Fund Balances for the cost of services during the first year ($59,500).

12 if such amendment or waiver had been effective on the date hereof but taking into account any subsequent change in or official interpretation of the Rule, as well as any change in circumstances.

In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the City, based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Series 2009 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes.

CITY OF COMPTON RESCINDING RESOLUTION 25,981 AND

APPROVING AND ADOPTING THE ANNUAL APPROPRIATION
(GANN) LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEARS 2020-2021, 2021-2022, 2022- 2023, 2023-2024 AND 2024-2025

SUMMARY
This Resolution rescinds Resolution No. 25,981 which established the appropriations GANN limit for fiscal years 2020-2021 through 2023-2024. Since the adoption of that resolution, the calculated figures have been revised and the updated appropriation limits must be adopted. In order for the City of Compton to be compliant with the Appropriation Limit Law pursuant to Article XIII B of the California Constitution and establish the maximum annual Appropriation (GANN) Limit for the City of Compton for Fiscal Years 2020-2021, 2021-2022, 2022-2023, 2023-2024 and 2024-2025.

BACKGROUND
On February 20, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution 25,981 authorizing the adoption of the annual appropriation (GANN) limit for fiscal years 2020-2021 through 2023-2024. Since the adoption of that Resolution the calculated figures have been revised and the updated appropriation limits must be adopted.

In November of 1979, California voters approved Proposition 4 (Prop 4) commonly known as the GANN Initiative. Prop 4 created Article XIII B of the State of California Constitution which placed limits on the amount of Tax Revenue Proceeds appropriated each fiscal year. Restricted revenues noted in Article XIII B are those referred to as "Proceeds of Taxes." The City may not appropriate money over and above the GANN Appropriation Limit.

The annual growth factors used in calculating the City’s Appropriation Limit are as follows:
a) Factor 1- the calculation includes the percentage (%) change in City of Compton Non-Residential New Construction (%) change in the California Per Capita Income. The greater (%) change is used. The HdL Companies provided the Assessed Valuation information to the City of Compton based on the analysis of Proposition 111. The (%) change in California Per Capita Income was provided by the State Department of Finance.

b) Factor 2 - the calculation includes the percentage (%) change in population in the City of Compton, or the (%) change in Los Angeles County’s population. The greater percentage was used. This population information was provided by the State Department of Finance.
c) Total Adjustment Factor = Factor 1 (x) Factor 2
d) Current Year’s Appropriation Limit = Total Adjustment Factor (x) Previous Year’s Appropriation Limit
Attachments B, C, D, E and F have been included to show the calculations for each fiscal year.

Also, in accordance to the California Constitution Art XIII B §1.5, the Appropriation Limit is required for the annual financial audit. As noted in Attachment A, failure to provide this information during the annual audit may subject the City to an audit finding.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
Resolution No. 25,981 established the City’s Appropriation (GANN) Limit for Fiscal Year 2020-2021, 2021-2022, 2022-2023, and 2023-2024, authorizing the adoption of the annual appropriation (GANN) limits.

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: MUNICIPAL WATER DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON AMENDING THE WATER DEPARTMENT’S 2024-2025 FISCAL YEAR

BUDGET TO ACCEPT AND APPROPRIATE TWO HUNDRED FIFTY
THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY-SIX DOLLARS ($250,756.00)
FOR CALRECYCLE GRANT – ROUND 4.

SUMMARY
The City Council will consider a resolution to accept and appropriate Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty-Six Dollars ($250,756.00) from the CalRecycle Grant – Round 4. The funds for this expenditure will be sourced from the SB1383 Organic Waste Recycling 4 account 2789-850-WR4-3569 and is based on the City’s population (approximately 93,000). The city intends to utilize these funds for the implementation of Compton’s Waste Management Plan (IWMP) in compliance with SB1383, following CalRecycle rules and regulations.

BACKGROUND
The Municipal Water Department is entrusted with the implementation of State Mandate SB1383. These regulations necessitate that jurisdictions conduct comprehensive education and outreach programs on organics recycling for all residents, businesses (including those generating edible food for donation), haulers, solid waste facilities, local food banks, and other food recovery organizations.

Jurisdictions, which encompass cities, counties, or special districts providing solid waste collection services, are required to maintain all necessary records under the SB1383 regulations within an Implementation Record (14 CCR Section 18995.2). Following the SB1383 Model Ordinance, the City of Compton has chosen to execute a performance- based source-separated organic waste collection service, as defined in Title 14 California Code of Regulations Article 17.

To comply with SB1383, jurisdictions must conduct a performance-based source separation and organics waste collection audit, recording the results in a Performance- Based Model Implementation Record Tool.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The City of Compton Water Department applied for and successfully secured Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty-Six Dollars ($250,756.00) from CalRecycle Grant – Round 4. The corresponding check was received on May 21, 2024, and now the
