PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS AND NON-AGENDA ITEMS
Charles Davis addressed the issue concerning the recent resignation of the City Attorney. He understands there was a settlement in Closed Session. He stated it looks like the appearance of a bribe to have someone removed from office. He indicated that as Compton’s former City Clerk you cannot negotiate a settlement with an elected official. You can take it to court and have the court ratify the settlement. Said person should submit their resignation to the Clerk along with the
5. 2
settlement and the City Clerk should send it to the Council for receive and filing. He noted that a person is not out of office until the City Council receives and files their resignation.
Councilmember Darden requested that they discuss the matter further after Public Comments.
Katheleen Lockstone from Richland Farms had concerns regarding the parking program. She submitted a California Public Records Act to the City Clerk and asked the Council to postpone enforcement in district three until the public records are produced and reviewed. She stated their concern is transparency and documentation. She requested the District Three Designation Resolution, Triggering Petition for initiating records in District Three, the City’s Permit Issuance Totals, the sign installation and reinstalling work orders along with dates for District Three. She requested that they direct staff to bring District Three back for public review. She asked if they would support producing the full District Three records publicly and postpone enforcement until that record is reviewed.
Kincey Jones thanked the Council for improving the streets and tree trimming, encouraging them to continue their efforts as Compton’s appearance improves.
Jose Marquez mentioned that he has many relatives living in Richland Farms. He hopes to introduce an Autism program in Compton, but parking at the park remains a concern. When participants visit, where should they park? There have been changes, and many Latinos need to follow parking rules, working together as a community. The farm shouldn't be removed, as its animals can provide therapeutic benefits for children with illnesses and Autism.
Bradley Rodriguez, new Manager of Compton Library, announced that tomorrow the library will be closed. They will be observing December 25, 2025, and January 1, 2026. The library is open 12:00-8:00pm Tuesdays and Wednesday and 10:00am-6:00pm Thursday through Saturday. There is more information online concerning the dates of closing and hours of operation. He encouraged everyone to visit the library because they have a lot of programs and activities going on.
Maria Villareal Thanked the Council for what they have done in the City of Compton however there is still a lot of work to be done. She thanked City Manager Hopkins for resolution of certain situations she had. She thanked the Mayor for the knowledge she received from her. She stated they have to communicate better. She represents The Compton Latino Chamber of Commerce. They must learn to work with each other. She thanked the Sheriff’s Department for their support. She announced there is a situation at one of the businesses in District Two where Code Enforcement has been requesting graffiti removal from the owner. She asked if the city has a Department that takes care of graffiti.
Tanya Lewis thanked everyone from the Farms that have come out. She stated that when you are accustomed to doing the same routine you park how you want to park however the city has rules. She would like to see them come out more because there is more going in in the city other than parking. The city has other issues including credit card abuse. She wished everyone Happy Holidays.
Missy Barbara announced she lives in the Third District. She stated there are rules and regulations to everything. The areas need to be cleaned. On October 7, 2025, a resident came to the podium and expressed her concerns regarding a commissioner telling the lady to shut up and they need to know why it’s not on audio. She indicated that the information in the packet does not make sense.
She asked who gave the Assistant City Manager the authority to purchase over $8000 worth of gift cards with no names attached to them at $500 each.
Fidel Marquez, from District One stated that the audit did not remove the city from high risk and that’s concerning to him. The auditor pointed out HR and their finances which probably has to do with the new credit card issues. He asked the Council to get on their employees to fire department heads. He pointed out that it's unreasonable for us to pay the highest taxes and receive nothing in return. He read part of AD1234 explaining California rules for credit card use. Councilman Spicer is under investigation and should be censored until the investigation is over. Mr. Spicer thinks it’s a joke. He demands that the city censor him today.
Vanessa Cain stated she agrees with the censor. She indicated that the Council must make the city whole. They have been asking for a censor for Councilmember Spicer for three weeks. She 3 announced that Councilmember Spicer is ill equipped and needs a mental evaluation. They already know he stated to someone that’s he’s only there for the money. His District is horrible. They are looking for solid changes. She asked the Council to make the decision to get rid of Councilmember Spicer as soon as possible.
Lynn Boone asked everyone to please look at the agenda because it is this time of the year that money is being moved in large amounts from the General Fund. She thanked Charles Davis for his input on the City Attorney settlement. She read 505 of the City Charter regarding vacancies concerning elected officials. An attorney advised them two weeks ago that the seat is a City Attorney seat until December 2026 and they must appoint someone that meets the qualifications of the City Attorney and not appoint City Manager Hopkins. She indicated that McIntyre cannot be the City Attorney because the City Attorney is for the people. When City Attorney Perrodin investigated for Fidel the credit cards, a settlement was suddenly reached, despite earlier claims that his case lacked merit. Using another person's credit card without authorization constitutes fraud and is a crime.
Mayor Sharif requested that the item that Councilmember Darden asked to be discussed, she would like to have it agendized. She advised that due to violations they cannot do it tonight and requested that it be scheduled for next week.
Councilmember Darden indicated that due to the fact that it is time sensitive she wants to discuss it this evening.
Mayor Shariff informed Councilmember Darden that the item was not on the agenda.
Councilmember Darden asked if she needed to remove herself and speak as a citizen.
Mayor Sharif stated that if that’s her choice yes but she was just letting her know it was not agendized.
Councilmember Darden made a motion to speak.
City Clerk Zurita advised Councilmember Darden that she would have to speak as a citizen because the item is not agendized.
Councilmember Darden approached the audience mic stating she was speaking as a citizen of Compton. She has been a resident since 1961. She needs to speak on the item because she believes it is time sensitive. She stated she was speaking to protect herself, the Mayor and Council and the City of Compton. She advised that she did some research and found that on June 20, 2021, Daniel Brown was elected as City of Attorney for City of Compton. Shortly after that election Attorney Brown resigned to accept other employment. The Mayor and City Council appointed Eric J.
Perrodin to fill the position of the unexpired term of Attorney Brown. This appointment was made in compliance with Section 505 of the City Charter. In March 2025 an election was held, Perrodin was candidate and ran unopposed. He was elected to fill the unexpired term of the City Attorney, and the expiration date is December 31, 2026. Asked the City Manager Hopkins to explain further.
City Manager Hopkins noted that the election of November 5, 2024, which held Measure CA changed the Charter. The new Charter was approved November 5, 2024. The Secretary of State amended the Charter effective January 7, 2025. On January 7, 2025, the certification authentication of the Charter amendment Section 500 and Section 702 of the City Charter has been changed. He read part of Section 500. He gave a detailed explanation of the appointment process as per the Charter.
Councilmember Darden indicated that if it was adopted on November 5, 2024, they have been in violation for allowing Perrodin to remain City Attorney.
City Manager Hopkins advised that no they were not in violation, if Perrodin had held that office until the end of the time he would have been duly elected for the office he ran for however he resigned.
Councilmember Darden informed City Manager Hopkins that he stated Perrodin resigned, however she doesn’t have anything in writing with Mr. Perrodin’s signature on it. 4 City Manager Hopkins noted his resignation has been received, they have to put it on an agenda which they plan to do but there are other measures he had to complete before they could do so. He informed her that his resignation is in the Clerk’s Office.
City Clerk Zurita confirmed that the resignation of City Attorney Eric Perrodin had been received by her office.
Mayor Sharif announced that the Council received Bishop Guillory’s letter of resignation.
Jasper Jackson from District One spoke concerning 1814 W. 136th Street, Mrs. Herbert’s residence. He indicated that she is receiving letters regarding putting a lien on her property. He talked to the City Manager concerning the issue a while back. He has been trying to communicate with the City Manager but has not been successful. This has been going on for the past fifteen years. CCP337-339 is very clear that you can only go after someone for four years. You must file a lawsuit or place a lien on the property. The time has expired therefore he is requesting the City Manager have Victor Orozco send her a letter advising her that the case is closed.
Mr. Conley asked for clarification on the Charter Amendment Certification's effective date in January 2025 and the November 2025 election. He opposes paying $200,000 of taxpayers’ dollars to the former City Attorney. The citizens should have the opportunity to decide if they want to pay him because they did not appoint him, the Council did. Who is ultimately responsible for his tenure and who pays him? Residents should not pay for the mistakes of the Council. He prefers a proper resolution over just settling.
City Manager Hopkins clarified that the election was November 5, 2024, and Charter Amendment Certification was completed by the Secretary of State on January 7, 2025, which is when the Amendments to the Charter were made.
City Clerk Zurita asked that public information requests be submitted online or in person tomorrow to ensure proper recordkeeping.

Councilmember Bowers asked who was the group investigating city officials or employees?
City Manager Hopkins responded indicating it is for investigative services and it includes all the above. He noted that with the volume of investigations of employees and across the board, a lot of the firms they currently have on retainers do not have the capacity to support them.

FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON
ADOPTING VARIOUS POLICIES REQUIRED UNDER THE BROWN
ACT AS AMENDED BY SENATE BILL 707 INCLUDING POLICIES FOR
REASONABLE ACCOMMODATIONS, TELECONFERENCE MEETING
DISRUPTION POLICY AND AN INTERNET SERVICE AND
TELEPHONIC SERVICE DISRUPTION POLICY
SUMMARY
It is recommended that the City Council review the policies implementing the requirements under the Brown Act as amended by Senate Bill 707.
BACKGROUND
The Ralph M. Brown Act, commonly known as the “Brown Act,” is California’s “sunshine” law for local government. In 2025, the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 707 (“SB 707”), which was signed into law on October 3, 2025 and is effective January 1, 2026.
SB 707 enacted an extensive modernization of the Brown Act, amending provisions in numerous areas including remote participation for members of a legislative body due to a disability, the teleconferencing provisions and requirements to hold hybrid meetings (i.e. in person, telephonically and generally via zoom).
The purpose of the proposed resolution is to adopt the various policies required by the Brown Act, as amended by SB 707. Doing so ensures compliance with the Brown Act but also promotes transparency, accessibility and participation by members of the public.
STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The proposed resolution and accompanying policies are required by the Brown Act as amended by SB 707. A summary of each policy and the relevant SB 707 provisions is discussed below.
The Legislative Body Reasonable Accommodation Policy for Remote Participation at Meetings Subject to the Brown Act. SB 707 updates Government Code Section 54953 of the Brown Act to allow for members of legislative bodies with disabilities to participate in meetings remotely through teleconferencing as a reasonable accommodation. (See, Government Code Section 54953(c)). If such an accommodation is granted, remote participation due

Senate Bill 707

to a disability will be treated as in-person attendance at the physical meeting location for all purposes, including reaching a quorum. The traditional teleconference requirements of posting the address of the teleconference location and allowing public participation from the teleconference location will not apply.
This policy provides the process for members of the City’s legislative bodies, which would include the City Council, Planning Commission and other commissions and boards that are legislative bodies as defined by the Brown Act and have public meetings, to request a reasonable accommodation to attend legislative body meetings remotely because of qualifying disability.
If a member participates remotely through teleconferencing due to their disability, they must: (i) disclose at the meeting before any action is taken, whether any other individuals 18 years of age or older are present in the room at the remote location with the member, and the general nature of the member’s relationship with any of those individuals; and (ii) use both audio and visual technology to participate in the meeting unless their disability prevents the person from participating on camera.
In that case, they may participate using audio technology only. Reasonable Accommodations Policy for Public Agency Brown Act Meetings.
Since 2023 the Brown Act required public agencies, including cities, to have and implement a written policy to resolved reasonable accommodation requests from individuals with disabilities to ensure such individuals have access to public meetings. SB 707 kept this provision intact, except it moved it from one section of the Government Code to another section. It is now codified at Government Code Section 54953.8(b)(8). The proposed policy provides for the process for members of the public to request a reasonable accommodation with regard to their attendance at a Brown Act public meeting.
City Council Teleconference Meeting Disruption Policy. Under the current provisions of the Brown Act, a legislative body may adopt reasonable rules of decorum that preclude a speaker from disrupting, disturbing or otherwise impeding the orderly conduct of its meetings. If there is actual disruptive behavior, the presiding officer may remove an individual from a meeting, after first warning the individual that their behavior is disruptive and that failure to cease could result in removal. See Government Code Section 54957.95(a). Behavior is disruptive only if it actually disrupts, disturbs, impedes, or renders infeasible the orderly conduct of the meeting. Disruptive behavior may include noncompliance with the legislative body’s established rules of decorum, such as speaking out of turn or exceeding established time limits on how long an individual can speak on a particular topic during public comment. If the individual disrupting the meeting is using force or a true threat of force, such that a reasonable observer would perceive the threat to Staff Report – Resolution Authorizing
Senate Bill 707

be an actual threat to use force by the person making the threat — they may be removed without a prior warning to cease their behavior.
SB 707 extends the authority of the presiding officer of a legislative body to remove a person for disrupting a teleconference meeting in addition to those disrupting an in-person meeting. In that regard, SB 707 adds Government Code Section 54957.96, which states that the existing authority of the presiding officer of a legislative body to remove or limit participation of members of the public who actually engage in behavior that disrupts, disturbs, impedes or renders infeasible the orderly conduct of a meeting, also extends to those members of the public that participate in a meeting via a two-way telephonic service or a two-way audiovisual platform.
The City has adopted rules of decorum for City Council meetings located in Municipal Code Section 2-1.13. These rules of decorum comply with the Brown Act and case law regarding enforcing such rules and if necessary removing actually disrupting individuals from City Council meetings. The policy extends the City’s existing rules of decorum to address any potentially disruptive behavior that may occur from those individuals attending the meeting remotely, either through an audiovisual platform or a two-way telephonic platform. Internet Service and Telephonic Service Disruption Policy. SB 707 requires that, beginning in July 1, 2026, City Council meetings must be hybrid, so that members of the public can participate in-person, at the City’s physical location where the meeting is held, and also remotely using a two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform, like zoom to attend the meeting. Because of that hybrid format and to ensure that those members of the public attending remotely can participate on the same basis of those persons attending in person, SB 707 requires the adoption of a policy regarding the handling of a disruption of telephonic or internet service during a meeting and its restoration by or before July 1, 2026. Substantively, the policy must provide procedures for recessing and reconvening a meeting in the event of an internet or telephone service disruption and must describe the steps to be taken in an attempt to restore the service. See, Government Code Section 54953.4(b)(1)(A)(i)(I)(ia)(Ib). The policy implements this requirement of SB 707.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution adopting various policies required under the Brown Act as amended by Senate Bill 707 including policies for reasonable accommodation, teleconference meeting disruption policy, and an internet service and telephonic service disruption policy.

CITY OF COMPTON
LEGISLATIVE BODY REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION POLICY FOR REMOTE
PARTICIPATION AT MEETINGS SUBJECT TO THE BROWN ACT
Background and Purpose:
The Ralph M. Brown Act, commonly known as the “Brown Act,” is California’s “sunshine” law for local government. The Brown Act is found in the California Government Code commencing with Section 54950. In 2025, the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 707 (“SB 707”), which was signed into law on October 3, 2025 and is effective January 1, 2026. SB 707 enacted an extensive modernization of the Brown Act.
SB 707 updates Section 54953 of the Brown Act to allow for members of legislative bodies with disabilities to participate in meetings remotely as a reasonable accommodation. (See, Government Code Section 54953(c)). If such an accommodation is granted under this new provision, remote participation due to a disability will be treated as in-person attendance at the physical meeting location for all purposes, including reaching a quorum. The traditional teleconference requirements of posting the address of the teleconference location and allowing public participation from the teleconference location will not apply.
The purpose of this policy is to ensure compliance with the Brown Act and to provide a written procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving reasonable accommodation requests for members of the City of Compton legislative bodies, consistent with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. Sec. 12132), and resolving any doubt in favor of accessibility. The purpose is to enable participation in legislative body meetings through remote participation for a qualifying individual whose disability precludes their in-person attendance at a meeting of their legislative body. As set forth in California Attorney General Opinion No. 23-1002, which addressed the applicability of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) to meetings subject to the Brown Act, the opinion stated that not every disability necessitates remote participation, because not every disability precludes in-person attendance; therefore, a fact intensive, individualized, case-by-case inquiry is required when considering remote participation as a reasonable accommodation.
Requests for Reasonable Accommodation:
Definitions. As used in this policy, a member of a legislative body means any individual who is a member of the Compton City Council or a member of any Member or commission of the City of Compton, whose meetings are subject to the Brown Act. and shall be referred to herein as “Member.” “ADA Coordinator” means the General Services Director or their designee.
Procedure. A Member who desires to attend meetings remotely because of a qualified disability shall make an accommodation request in writing to the City’s ADA Coordinator. The request should include a written statement that the Member requires remote participation under this Policy because of their disability. You are not required to disclose the particular disability. The request shall be made at least three weeks before the meeting for which the Member first seeks accommodation. If the City maintains a “Reasonable Accommodation Form,” the request shall be made on such form.
Interactive Process. The City’s ADA Coordinator or designee is authorized to make reasonable inquiries about the Member’s need for accommodation, to conduct the necessary case-by-case inquiry into the request and to accommodate a qualifying disability, consistent with applicable law. The City may require additional information, Resolution No. _________
such as a medical provider’s certification of the existence of a qualifying disability and the need for the accommodation to attend remotely. The City may not ask the Member or their medical provider to disclose a specific diagnosis. The ADA Coordinator will inform the Member, the City Manager, and the City Clerk of the decision on the request for reasonable accommodation in writing.
An approved reasonable accommodation for remote access attendance at public meetings shall be in effect for the period of time that the Member’s disabling condition continues, and the decision of the ADA Coordinator shall reflect this determination.
Confidentiality. All information regarding a Member’s claimed disability or medical information must be kept confidential and maintained in a separate medical file by the ADA Coordinator. Such information may be disclosed in limited circumstances, such as to first aid and safety personnel, when appropriate, to government officials investigating compliance with the ADA, or to City staff trained on and entrusted with the handling of confidential medical information, if such disclosure is necessary to effectuate the reasonable accommodation.
Member’s Responsibilities Under the Brown Act. If the accommodation for remote participation is granted, the Member is required to comply with the applicable provisions of Government Code Section 54953(c) as follows:
1. The Member shall participate through both audio and visual technology, except that any Member with a disability, as defined by California Government Code Section 12926 and used in Section 12926.1, or by Section 12102 of Title 42 of the United States Code, may participate only through audio technology if a physical condition related to their disability results in a need to participate off camera.
2. The Member shall disclose at the meeting before any action is taken, whether any other individuals 18 years of age or older are present in the room at the remote location with the member, and the general nature of the Member’s relationship with any of those individuals.

CITY OF COMPTON
CITY COUNCIL TELECONFERENCE MEETING DISRUPTION POLICY
Background:
California law provides local government agencies certain with powers to establish rules of decorum and to remove individuals who disrupt public meetings when they violate those rules. In particular, the Brown Act authorizes local government agencies to establish reasonable regulations to manage public comment at public meetings, including meetings that are teleconferenced. Gov. Code § 54954.3. Such rules may include limiting the total amount of time allotted for testimony on a particular issue and for each individual speaker to address the body during the public comment period. In order to be subject to removal from a public meeting, courts have held that an individual must actually disturb the meeting.1 Using offensive words is not sufficient to justify removal from a meeting.2 Only an actual disruption that impedes the progress of the meeting can justify the removal of a speaker.3 This determination is a fact-specific determination made by the presiding officer of the legislative body.
The City of Compton has adopted rules of decorum for City Council meetings located in Municipal Code Section 2-1.13. These rules of decorum comply with the Brown Act and case law regarding enforcing rules of decorum and physically removing actually disruptive individuals from City Council meetings.
SB 707 (2025) requires that, beginning July 1, 2026, City Council meetings must be hybrid, so that members of the public can participate in person, at the physical location(s) where the meeting is held, and remotely using a two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform, such as Zoom, to attend meetings.4 In order to preemptively address any potentially disruptive behavior that may occur at City Council or other City legislative body meetings that are held using two-way telephonic or audiovisual platforms, the City Council wishes to adopt a “Meeting Disruption Policy,” which extends the City’s existing rules of decorum to such meetings.
City of Compton Teleconference Meeting Disruption Policy I. Rules of Decorum for Meetings: The rules of decorum for meetings listed in Section 2-1.13 Subsections a through c of the City of Compton Municipal Code apply equally to City Council meetings held in-person, remotely via a two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform, or held using a hybrid of the two.
II. Enforcement of Decorum: The rules of decorum for meetings that use a two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform will be enforced against members of the public participating through the telephonic or audiovisual platform in the following manner:
1. Warning. Any person who disturbs, disrupts, or otherwise impedes the conduct of the meeting through a two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform is out of order and the presiding officer shall request, that such person comply with the applicable rules of decorum. If, after receiving a warning from the presiding officer, a person persists in disturbing, disrupting, or otherwise impeding the meeting, the presiding officer may order that person’s telephonic or audiovisual input to be muted for the remainder of the meeting if the person continues to use the audio function to disturb the meeting. If such 1 Norse v. City of Santa Cruz, 629 F.3d 966, 976 (9th Cir. 2010). 2 Acosta v. City of Costa Mesa, 718 F.3d 800, 810 (9th Cir. 2013); Monteiro v.

person is using an audiovisual platform to attend the meeting, has the camera on, and is disturbing the meeting and violating the rules of decorum for meetings using the visual aspect of the audiovisual platform, that person’s visual window may be turned off by staff after a warning from the presiding officer.
2. Removal. Staff responsible for monitoring and operating the two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform for the meeting shall carry out all lawful orders and instructions given by the presiding officer for the purpose of maintaining order and decorum at the meeting. Upon instruction of the presiding officer, it is the duty of the staff responsible for telephonic or audiovisual platform at the meeting to remove from the telephonic or audiovisual platform used for the Council meeting any person who continues to disturb, disrupt, or otherwise impeding the proceedings of the Council.
3. Returning Disturbances. Any person who leaves a meeting and relogs in or calls in to the two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform to continue to disturb the meeting under a new username or phone number may be immediately removed from the meeting platform by the responsible staff person, and may be prosecuted pursuant to Municipal Code Subsections 2-1.13.c.3. and c.4.
4. Motion to Enforce. If the presiding officer fails to enforce the rules set forth above, any member of the Council may move to require the presiding officer to do so pursuant to Municipal Code Subsections 2-
1.13.c.5.

The Brown Act is found in the California Government Code commencing with Section 54950.5 In 2025, the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 707 (“SB 707”), which was signed into law on October 3, 2025 and is effective January 1, 2026. SB 707 enacted an extensive modernization of the Brown Act.
SB 707 adds a new Section 54953.4 that requires specific actions be taken by an “eligible legislative body” to make meetings more accessible to the public. An “eligible legislative body” is defined in Section 54953.4(e)(2) and as applied to the City of Compton, the City Council is an eligible legislative body.
Beginning July 1, 2026, public meetings hold by an eligible legislative body are required to include an opportunity for members of the public to attend via a two-way telephonic service or a two-way audiovisual platform (such as Zoom), commonly referred to as a “hybrid meeting.” The only exception is if adequate telephonic or internet service is not operational at the meeting location.
In conjunction with hybrid meetings, SB 707 requires the City Council on or before July 1, 2026, to approve a policy regarding the disruption of telephonic or internet services occurring during the meeting. The adoption of such policy must occur at a noticed public meeting of the City Council in open session and not as an item on the consent calendar.
The purpose of this policy is to adopt the “Internet Service and Telephonic Service Disruption Policy” in the manner and content required by Section 54953.4(b)(1)(A)(i)(I) and (II).

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON
CALLING FOR THE HOLDING OF AN ALL-MAIL BALLOT PRIMARY
NOMINATING AND GENERAL ELECTIONS TO BE HELD ON TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 2026 AND NOVEMBER 3, 2026, RESPECTIVELY FOR THE
ELECTION OF CERTAIN MUNICIPAL OFFICERS AS REQUIRED BY
LAW
SUMMARY
The City Council will consider adopting a resolution calling for the holding of an all -mail ballot, Primary Nominating and General Elections to be held on Tuesday, June 2, 2026 and Tuesday November 3, 2026 respectively, for certain municipal offices.
BACKGROUND
On October 6, 2020, the City adopted Ordinance No. 2325, authorizing the City Council, by resolution, to have municipal elections conducted by all-mail ballots.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Staff is proposing that the City Council authorize an all-mail ballot election for the upcoming election on June 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026. All-mail ballot elections are less expensive than traditional elections with multiple locations.
Justification for the continuation of all-mail in ballots:
1. Accessibility and Equity
Elderly Population: Seniors may face mobility challenges, health concerns, and transportation limitations that make traveling to polling places difficult. Mail-in voting ensures they can participate safely and conveniently. Individuals with Disabilities or Limited Transportation: Voting in person may present significant challenges to residents with disabilities due to mobility limitations, transportation barriers, and accessibility constraints at polling locations. Mail-in ballots eliminate this barrier, promoting equal access.
8. All-Mail Election – Staff Report
February 3, 2026, Page 2
2. Public Health and Safety
Vulnerable populations, including the elderly and immunocompromised, benefit from reduced exposure to crowded polling places. Mail-in voting minimizes health risks while maintaining democratic participation.
3. Language and Cultural Barriers for Immigrant Communities Naturalized citizens have the legal right to vote, equal to that of citizens by birth, and they may require additional time to review ballots and materials in their preferred language. Voting by mail allows naturalized citizens additional time to read instructions carefully, and seek assistance if needed.
4. Increased Voter Participation
Studies show that mail-in voting significantly increases turnout among underrepresented groups. Providing this option strengthens civic engagement and representation.
5. Emergency Preparedness
Natural disasters, extreme weather, or public health emergencies can disrupt in-person voting. A robust mail-in system ensures continuity of elections under unforeseen circumstances.
An all-mail ballot election will include pre-stamped ballots for voter convenience and ballots can be given to the mail carrier, dropped off at a Post Office or dropped off at one of the permanent drop off locations. Current drop off boxes are located at Compton Library (240 W. Compton Blvd.) and Gonzales Park (1101 W. Cressey Street).
Ballots can also be dropped off at one of three vote centers, with locations at BurrellMacDonald Park, 2516 W. Alondra Boulevard, Wilson Park, 123 N. Rose Avenue, and one additional location (to be determined).
FISCAL IMPACT
The funds for this expenditure will be available in the 2025-2026 Fiscal Year Budget in the following accounts:
1001-480-000-4262 City Clerk Department (General Fund)
RECOMMENDATION
It is the recommendation of staff that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution.

COMPTON AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER
INTO A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH AND
ESTABLISH A PURCHASE ORDER TO EUNA SOLUTIONS TO
INSTALL AND SUPPORT A PAYMENT KIOSK PLATFORM IN AN
AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $50,220.00
SUMMARY
This Resolution authorizes the City Manager to enter into a professional services agreement with EUNA Solutions (EUNA) to install and support payment kiosks in selected areas of City Hall.
BACKGROUND
The City Treasurer’s Office processes all of the City of Compton’s payments including utility bills, construction permits, business licenses, and parking citations to name just a few. In an effort to streamline the payment process, lessen the amount of foot traffic in City Hall, and most importantly give our residents access to as many methods of payment processing as possible, the City Treasurer’s Department has diligently sought out alternative avenues of payment processing to make these internal goals a reality.
STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
EUNA Solutions is a trusted vendor specializing in providing the public sector with solutions to simplify their collection of revenue, enhancing payment workflows, and introducing alternative methods of customer payment to help streamline the customer experience while at the same time increasing the productivity of cashiering/reporting processed. The three payment kiosks (two indoor and one thru-wall) described in the attached proposal will create new payment opportunities for those residents who do not wish to stand in line in the City Treasurer’s lobby to be serviced at the front counter but who would instead appreciate a seamless payment option that would meet their needs.
While the City Treasurer’s Department goal of servicing all customers efficiently and professionally will never change, providing alternative methods of payments will go a long way in streamlining Department processes and providing alternative methods of payment that would help alleviate wait-time, lobby traffic, and time constraints for those residents that utilize this proposed platform.

Statement of Fact
Euna Solutions/Payment Kiosk Agenda Item
The City Treasurer, as part of their initiative to streamline payment processing and offer our residents more robust payment options, has begun the implementation process of payment kiosks to be located in the lobby of City Hall for easy customer interaction.
After careful consideration of vendors offering such a product, it was found the EUNA Solutions was able to provide an integration model that was wholly compatible with our current Springbrook financial software modules, something that set it apart from other competitors in the same market. As the City of Compton is looking to transition to a cloud-based form at with Springbrook, it is imperative that the vendor chose for this implementation have the requisite plan and compatibility with existing software to make this project a reality.
It is with this in mind that the City Treasurer Department is confident that this agreement with Euna Solutions, and their selection as a potential vendor, fall within the parameters of a Professional Services Agreement and outside of the normal bidding process.

We previously had cashiers that were there to

We were able to re-allocate those resources...and
so that actually gave us a cost savings of about
