Raymond Street Park Joint Use Concepts • SLA Inc. Source: City of Compton follow-up request from Parks & Recreation Director 02 Raymond Street Joint Use Project:

How did we get here?
● Our team became aware of a grant funding opportunity that aligned with the City's goals of expanding recreational and community amenities.
● Due to the time-sensitive nature of the grant application timeline, we approached the City with an unsolicited proposal outlining the project concept and offering assistance in pursuing the available funding.
● The proposal was submitted solely to provide the City with an opportunity to compete for external grant funding and does not commit any city funds.

Raymond Street Park Joint Use Concepts • SLA Inc. Source: City of Compton follow-up request from Parks & Recreation Director 03 Why an Unsolicited Proposal Was Appropriate
● Public agencies commonly receive unsolicited proposals related to grant opportunities, innovative projects, and public-private partnerships.
● Grant application deadlines often require agencies to act quickly, leaving insufficient time to conduct a traditional competitive procurement process before an application must be submitted. ● In this case, pursuing the grant opportunity required timely action to meet the funding agency's application deadline.

Raymond Street Park Joint Use Concepts • SLA Inc. Source: City of Compton follow-up request from Parks & Recreation Director 04 No Project Commitment
● The proposed MOU does not obligate the city to move forward with the project. ● Its purpose is limited to seeking grant funding and evaluating the feasibility of the project. ● Any future project implementation would be subject to City review and approvals.

The presentation is designed to reduce risk, not to ask council to approve an unfinished project.

Concern: Cost Answer: Use a grant-first strategy, phase the project, and return with a cost opinion before construction. No city funds to be committed or used.

Concern: Maintenance Answer: Require a written operations and maintenance plan before final construction approval. Use workforce development grant to maintain park.

Concern: Horses / safety Answer: Two options are available. Joint use concept allows for; equestrian uses with separation, buffers, signage, and dedicated movement areas for both horses and pedestrians..

Concern: Capacity Answer: The project team has a representative $9.1M+ public/project portfolio and active partners.

Concern: Community buy-in Answer: Conduct outreach before final design: nearby residents, Richland Farms, families, youth, seniors, and park users.

A YES vote tonight keeps the process alive - it does not lock the city into construction, final costs, or a final design.

WORKSHOP (S)
WORKSHOP – UNFUNDED ACCRUED LIABILITY (OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS TAXES) @ 4:30PM

DAN MATUSIEWICZ
Dan Matusiewicz presented the following:

Pension Benefit Promise & Obligation
Partnership Overview
 The city contracts with the California Public Employee’s Retirement System (CalPERS) to administer pension benefits for eligible employees.
 CalPERS provides actuarial valuation, and benefit administration of the promised benefit, while the city is responsible for funding its share of pension costs and accurately reporting payroll and service data.
 The partnership ensures employees receive promised retirement benefits under the city’s adopted benefit formulas.

How CalPERS Determines Pension Costs
How it works
 CalPERS uses professional actuaries to estimate how much money must be set aside today to pay for future retirement benefits.
 These estimates rely on assumptions about:
- Investment returns – how much CalPERS expects to earn on investments - Longevity – how long retirees and beneficiaries are expected to live - Salary growth and inflation – how pay and costs will rise over time The Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL)
 The UAL is the gap between:
- What the plan owes in future benefits
- What’s currently set aside and invested
 A UAL develops when:
- Investments earn less than expected
- Employees live longer or retire earlier
- Actuarial assumptions are changed
 The city is required to pay back the UAL over time with interest (6.8%), but that interest can become a significant ongoing cost
 The city can also pay off any portion of UAL, at its discretion, through Additional Discretionary Payments (ADPs) to avoid additional interest costs Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) Management
 The city can make annual payments each year to pay down the UAL, similar to a home mortgage, but the interest on the unpaid balance accrues at 6.8% per year can become a significant annual cost of the city.
 The city can pay off any portion of the UAL at significant savings to the city and its residents.
 Managing the UAL also helps keep pension plans sustainable, predictable, and financially secure for employees and taxpayers.

7. 2
Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL)
Expected Remaining UAL Balance at 6/30/26
Total Payments Per CalPERS Schedule
Interest included in Schedule Payments (6.8%)
Audit Recommendation
By July 2024, the City Council should ensure that the city develops and begins implementing a plan for reducing Compton’s pension and other postemployment benefits (OPEB) costs and liabilities. This plan may include placing retirement funds into a trust and negotiating changes to employees’ contributions for pension and OPEB costs.

Pay Now or Pay More Later
(Provided a chart with numbers he could not see)
Recommendations

1. Appropriate and pay 90% of the Miscellaneous Plan UAL Balance approximately $65.9 million of future expected interest costs.

2. Consider directing staff to establish a pension volatility reserve policy. Such a policy could establish the means to and guidelines to manage the City’s pension obligations and effectively.

Recommendations

1. Appropriate and pay 90% of the Miscellaneous Plan UAL Balance, approximately $65.9 million if paid on 12/31/25 to save approximately $42.7 million of future expected interest costs.

2. Consider directing staff to establish a pension volatility reserve policy. Such a policy could establish the means to and guidelines to manager the city’s pension obligations more effectively.

Councilmember Duhart asked if he talked to the City Treasurer about how much money is in the account.

Mr. Matusiewicz stated from his understanding that as per staff, not the City Treasurer there’s in excess of $100 million in the fund.

Councilmember Spicer indicated obviously if they pay the cost now, they will save significant savings but how else would it benefit the citizens of Compton? Mr. Matusiewicz explained in the immediate term the city would be able to reduce the Pension Tax Levy. Typically, they like to see agencies prefund their obligation as it’s accrued. As employees work for a year of service they accrue an additional year of service credit. If they pay it concurrently with the service, the investment earnings offset the cost of the benefit 50-60% over time. “Maybe I’m not answering the question sufficiently but I guess another way to look at it that $7.2 million would otherwise go to CalPERS and payment could be redeployed to some other community benefit whatever that is, whether paying additional wages to employees, another project, it would be up to the Council to decide.”
Councilmember Spicer thanked him but needed clarity as to whether it would reduce the property taxes residents are paying.

Mr. Matusiewicz stated that it would depend on staff taking action. The portion of the property taxes that represent the pension levy should be reduced by $7.2 million.

3 City Manager Hopkins explained when they initially embarked on it, looking at the numbers their calculations at the time were on average. The average citizen should see approximately a $200 reduction on the pension tax on their tax bill.

Mayor Sharif needed clarity on whether it was a permanent reduction and if it was going to go back up over a period of years.

City Manager Hopkins stated it could possibly go up after a period of years; remember the city is assessed every year depending on what happens to the assessment. Just as this year they do a recalculation, however it would yield a relief to the rate payers over a period of time.

Mayor Sharif stated there were very few cities that had that type of tax, she asked how familiar he was with the tax.

Mr. Matusiewicz noted in lieu of the pension tax what many cities do because the obligations and assets in CalPERS are subject to the volatility in the market, a lot of cities take their General Fund revenues and set money aside in a similar trust that’s restricted to paying down pension liability only.

Mayor Sharif asked if there were any other cities with the pension tax that they were working with.

Mr. Matusiewicz responded the only other similar forum would be a Pension Obligation Bond where they borrow money. In those circumstances it’s not optional or discretionary to pay out the unfunded liability they are required to do so. Hundreds of cities in California have a pension trust outside of CalPERS. His recommendation would be to retain some of the money for future volatility.

Councilmember Spicer asked City Manager Hopkins if they had verified whether they in fact have $100 million in the bank.

City Manager Hopkins stated when they embarked on it many months ago, they were looking at a balance that was sufficient. They are checking right now to get a rough estimate of what the balance was. He should have the answer in a few moments.

Councilmember Darden asked City Manager Hopkins if they were collecting enough money on the property taxes to pay their annual obligations.

City Manager Hopkins stated the answer was yes.

Mr. Matusiewicz indicated that next year’s payment will be approximately $17 million.

Councilmember Darden stated they no longer have the Compton Police Department, however there are retirees. How many retirees are still under the……do you have that information? Mr. Matusiewicz stated it was a lofty report he could send it to her tomorrow however he guessed there were nine payments left on it.

PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THE WORKSHOP
Tanya Lewis stated the Treasurer should have been there because he has been investing money and the money has grown therefore, she’s sure he’s going to continue to invest. Maybe the money he invests could go towards the retirement tax so that the payment and the citizen’s taxes could go down.

Charles Davis, former City Clerk for thirty plus years, stated he looked at the proposed budget for 2025/2026. He went over the numbers from PERS in detail. He has been fighting for three years trying to reduce the taxes. What the City Manager was presenting at this time is unique. There are three elements to the retirement fund, which is unfunded liability, retiree payments and medical.

They need to have something in reserve for it. Year over year their excess has been between $12 and $15 million. They are collecting much more than what they have to put out. PERS sends a bill 4 to the city two years in advance. He begged the Council not to approve the resolution. He suggested they have another workshop and take into consideration all of the components and variables, even the one where the gentleman stated they could pay off the Police Department. He would volunteer his time because he helped put some of it together back in the day. The citizens and city can win however they need to go a lot deeper than that.

Jacqueline Venters announced she was late however as a retired resident that never worked for the city, she doesn’t understand why the residents are required to pay into employee’s pensions when they have never been employed by the city. She thinks it’s unfair that the citizens pay into their pension they should be paying for their own pension. She’s hoping the Council could revise it because the City of Compton should be paying not the residents.

City Clerk Zurita stated she rarely gets the opportunity to speak to all of them at one time, she hears from residents on a daily basis. While they figure out the pension payments and how to reduce mortgages and property taxes, she would ask that they also looking into taking the trash bill off of the property tax and let the trash company who are in the business of collecting trash payments do their own collections. That way elderly people in the community, some of which only pay $600 every six months for decades for their property taxes, however when the trash was placed on the bill it created a substantial hardship for a lot of the citizens in the community.

Missy stated she looked over the property taxes last year versus this year, the trash bill was on there and had increased. The trash bill should never have been placed on the property taxes and should be removed. Hopefully they can find some money to allocate to bring down the pension.

She was a LA County Sheriff employee, and she had to pay into her own pension.

Mr. Matusiewicz noted he had nothing to do with the special tax, having spent thirty years working in local government sometimes the revenues that are generated from property taxes, sales taxes and transient occupancy taxes may or may not cover the community’s needs. Sometimes special circumstances arise because the collective sum of all of the revenues can’t serve the residents the way they would like too. The residents and Council need to consider whether the revenues are sufficient to supply the services residents want.

Mark Smith indicated there was no method when services are not being delivered, however they are being taxed on it. He forgot why they decided to bundle the taxes with water and trash. He has experienced a number of times when the services were not delivered, and money was not paid back to them.

Councilmember Bowers asked City Manager Hopkins if they have started reformation of their pension for new hires.

City Manager Hopkins responded it depends on the employee, for example he pays a portion of his pension. If he was a classic employee, he wouldn’t pay anything. Pension reform was done around 2012-2013 therefore people that came into the system after 2012 have a requirement to make a contribution toward their pension. Those that were in prior do not.

Councilmember Bowers thinks Liberty and Republic should be pulled from the taxes and collect their own money.

Councilmember Darden asked City Manager Hopkins to investigate whether or not nonemployees are receiving retirement benefits.

On Motion by Bowers, seconded by Spicer, the Workshop adjourned at 5:20pm by the following vote on roll call:

AYES: Councilmembers – Duhart, Spicer, Bowers, Darden, Mayor Sharif NOES: Councilmembers – None
ABSENT: Councilmembers – None

PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS AND NON-AGENDA MATTERS
Maria Villareal from Compton Latino Chamber of Commerce was there representing all of the immigrants in Compton. Today was a very active day with immigration in Compton, they picked up more than ten people. She saw them by Walmart on Bullis Road therefore for those that say immigration is not a problem in Compton that’s not true. The Mayor and Council need to collaborate with other leaders to find out what they can do about the situation. If they don’t have papers and are illegal, they are going to be deported. She will continue fighting for what is right in Compton.

Councilmember Bowers rejoined the meeting at 5:38pm.

Anthony Ruff stated he retired from the US Army over four years ago after serving thirty-five years. He’s spending most of his time in retirement working with Veteran organizations in Compton and surrounding areas. He would like the community to come out and support, understand the history of their Veterans, particularly the Veterans upon wars of the United States Post #5394 in Compton. The post opened during the height of the Vietnam War by a group of predominantly Black Veterans returning from fighting America’s enemies overseas only to find that the fight against segregation and discrimination on American soil was still going on. The Post has earned a reputation as a safe place for the Compton community. They are there to serve the community, Veterans and their families. The event was sponsored and hosted by the Compton Branch of the NAACP Unit 1031. He encouraged everyone to join and become a member.

Everyone at the sound of his voice was invited to attend the celebration of the 60th Anniversary of the Compton VFW Post. They will be honoring Veterans, reuniting to celebrate Veteran’s Day and more. The event will take place on November 8, 2025, from 1-4pm at the Howard Richardson Veterans of Foreign Wars of US Post #5394 located at 303 E. Palmer St., Compton, CA.

City Clerk Zurita advised Mayor Sharif that she had been advised that items 3 & 5 have been tabled.

Lindsey McClullen spoke regarding the Water Aerobics Program indicating that it was supposed to begin tomorrow at the Breast Cancer Event at the pool. She asked if they could in anyway extend the program it would be appreciated. The ladies with her were unable to do the exercises on land.

Being in the water covers a multitude of things for them, there’s at least twenty of them along with a couple of guys. There’s a nitro problem in Compton with people inhaling it through balloons.

They are also doing street takeovers on Bradfield between Compton and Rosecrans. Maybe they can place speed bumps to deter them.

Tanya Lewis from district one, “City Manager is there any way possible you can give us a list of people that are still on pension and living?” Can we get a list of the ones that are not paying. In August they had no meetings at the Chamber, September no meetings, October no meetings now they are going into November what is going on with the Chamber, what is the progress or will they be going into a new year at Dollarhide?
Missy stated she agreed with Tanya. “Mayor, I asked you a couple of questions that you never responded to and I am going to keep on asking like a kid until I get the answers. I asked you about the nonprofit Nibbles and Thoughts; I asked you to find out exactly what they did with the $106,000.” They claim they were in the park however she has never seen them in the park. Last week she did her public comments, on Saturday she received several different text messages where their Councilmember dragged her through the mud on social media and she did not appreciate it however she’s going to put it in someone else's hands to handle because he’s an elected official and should not be dragging her for the comments she made. If they wanted to know what she said they could have tuned in on TV. It’s inappropriate and she fears for her safety due to the fact that he put it out there and because of the type of people he hangs with. She asked everyone to vote yes on proposition 50. There are still street takeovers on Central and Rosecrans on the weekends. Do they know when the street signs will be implemented? “Mr. Strickland you know I love you and 6 I’m always rooting for you; can you turn the irrigation on the medians on Wilmington because the flowers are tilting and leaning to the side?”
Fidel Marquez from district one stated he attended Thursday’s meeting with rezoning in the city.

The consultants that conducted the meeting, everything was a mandate from the state. He has an issue with it because they are a Charter city and he doesn’t think anyone should come in and dictate what they do in the city. Not once has he heard about improving public safety. They are low on fireman, they are practically killing the poor guys and they are down on Sheriffs however they continue to bring housing to the city. They need to fix the problems first then worry about housing after. They will fight as residents, stop the housing they do not need or want it, they don’t pay into the state therefore they shouldn’t come there and dictate what they do there. Last week Missy spoke about the car that was rented for Councilmember Andre Spicer. Form 460 states he was reimbursed by Triphenia Simmons. Triphenia Simmons is not the Treasurer nor is she the City Manager. That’s a violation Triphenia has no right to be reimbursing anyone. The Charter states all monies go the City Treasurer. Why isn’t Triphenia being reprimanded? Why isn’t the Councilmember with the title Mayor Pro Tem being censored by anyone up there? They are opening up the city for lawsuits.

Vanessa Cain noted she supported proposition 50 and asked that everyone vote yes. They are in a war right now and they have a big duty to get out and vote on November 4th because it’s something that going to determine how long Republicans will be in office and they are setting up to be there for a long time. They are sending people down to make sure their votes are counted properly. She’s sure one will be sitting in Compton and she’s hoping they can have one polling place, no more than two, in order to make sure their votes are counted and counted properly. They do not want the nonprofits to count votes they pay Norwalk therefore let them do it. If they have less polls open, they can contain the voting and make sure it’s fair and legal. They know for thirtyseven years when Alita was there how much cheating went on with the voting count in the City of Compton. Let’s solidify where they are going to have the voting booths. They need to look at the armory and the $3 million it was sold for. She understands the school district asked for a reasonable price. At the time the owner asked for $8 million, however they resold it for $3 million.

Mayor Sharif asked City Clerk Zurita about the sign in sheets for the Successor Agency.

City Clerk Zurita asked if she had the sign in sheet.

Mayor Sharif stated yes, she did.

City Clerk Zurita advised the Mayor that she could open the Successor meeting as it wasn’t a joint meeting.

Beatie Carroll advised them she had hearing problems therefore they had to speak up so that she could hear. She has been living at 838 W. 138th St. for sixty-seven years. She had an acupuncture appointment yesterday. She called for a ride but was denied because she was told she did not live in the City of Compton. She pays her taxes as well as vote in the elections at Compton. After being denied after sixty-seven years of being faithful in the City of Compton she feels like she has been violated and it’s not the first time. They said she lives in the unincorporated area of Los Angeles not in the City of Compton. She’s very displeased because there are so many things she has asked for in the past as a taxpaying citizen and a disabled senior. Upon returning home from church on Sunday when she got out of her car she almost fell backwards due to the tore up street she had been complaining about. The street has not been repaired in forty-two years. They are not up there to make promises and not keep them. They made promises when they were running and they would like the promises kept. She’s tired as a ninety-two-year-old disabled citizen coming up there saying the same thing and getting no results.

Mayor Sharif requested that staff investigate.

City Manager Hopkins advised that it’s been addressed, staff used a faulty map which was how they communicated that she did not live in the city. They have been trying to resolve the issue and will reach out to her.

Lynn Boone stated they are hiring people and not training them at all because she called in and the person she spoke with advised her “I just started and you don’t live in Compton.” That’s wrong 7 for employees to be on the phone addressing residents without knowledge. That’s what has been going on in the city, and they were deemed with it in the audit. What happened to the audit findings, they never heard any results where do they stand? They are going to have to write to the State of California Auditors to find out and it’s sad. When people come to the podium and ask them questions, they vote on every item already knowing they are going to vote yes. If they are voting yes, how is it, they do not know anything about the item? They have to refer everything back to the City Manager. He doesn’t talk to them, he just tells them what he’s going to do, and she doesn’t understand it. “Citizens I want to tell you, they continue to bring people here to put on Power Point Presentations and they have no idea about Compton. When you hire people why don’t you interview them and ask if they know anything about Charter cities? If you pull it’s a real easy reading Emma Charter cities versus General Law the first line will tell you Charter cities don’t have to abide by state laws, that’s what makes us a Charter city. That’s why you can drive down our street and see a business and a residence because that’s what’s in our Charter.” When does the Planning Commission meet? The Planning Commission use to meet and the things they did not agree with they told the developers no, they had to come before the Council and ask for a hearing which they are supposed to pay for.

Councilmember Darden noted someone mentioned about the voting locations. She was wondering if the City Clerk could provide the information and put it on the city’s website as well.

City Clerk Zurita replied yes that the locations are Wilson Park and Burell McDonald Park, they opened this week from 10am to 7pm. On Election Day they will be open from 7am to 8pm.

CITY CLERK CITY OF COMPTON MAYOR CITY OF COMPTON
October 13, 2026
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: MUNICIPAL WATER DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ISSUE A PURCHASE ORDER
TO RUSH MEDIUM-DUTY TRUCK CENTERS OF CALIFORNIA, INC.

DBA RUSH TRUCK CENTER, CERES, THROUGH SOURCEWELL
COOPERATIVE PURCHASING CONTRACT #032824-RTG, FOR THE
PURCHASE OF ONE (1) 2027 FORD F-450 CHASSIS WITH A PRES

TECH VALVE EXERCISER AND VACUUM UPFIT IN AN AMOUNT NOT
TO EXCEED $259,154.41

SUMMARY
The Compton Water Department requires two fully operational gate valve utility trucks to maintain scheduled valve exercising, geographic information system (GIS) mapping, and rapid emergency main shut-offs. The Department currently relies on a single 10-year-old vehicle because the secondary 22-year-old unit is inoperable, with estimated overhaul costs rivaling replacement value. Staff requests Council approval to purchase a replacement 2027 Ford F-450 Valve and Vac utility truck from Rush Truck Centers for Two hundred fifty-nine thousand, one hundred fifty-four dollars and forty-one cents ($259,154.41) using competitively bid Sourcewell Contract #032824-RTG.

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton Water Department manages and protects the municipal water grid to deliver uninterrupted potable water and maintain adequate pressure for fire suppression. Thousands of gate valves buried beneath City streets control water flow through this underground distribution network. Over years of subsurface exposure, mineral accumulation, rust, and road debris infiltrate valve access boxes and cause mechanical valves to seize.

To maintain operational reliability, the Department deploys specialized gate valve utility vehicles equipped with high-torque hydraulic valve exercisers and high-capacity hydrovacuum extraction units. These specialized vehicles serve three core functions:

1. Preventive Valve Exercising: Systematically cycling valves open and closed to scrape away internal mineral accumulation and prevent permanent seizure.

8. Staff Report- Rush Truck Centers
Gate Valve Utility Truck
October 13, 2026, Page 2

2. Infrastructure Mapping: Electronically recording valve locations, rotation counts, torque limits, and operating condition to update City GIS databases.

3. Emergency Isolations: Responding instantly to broken mains to vacuum out submerged debris boxes and isolate ruptured lines without shutting down wider grid zones.

The Department requires a minimum operating fleet of two gate valve utility trucks: one dedicated to daily proactive valve cycling and mapping schedules, and the other stationed on standby to respond to emergency pipeline failures.

Currently, the Department operates at only 50% capacity:
 Primary Unit (Approx. 10 Years Old): Active, but experiencing severe operational wear because it handles the entire municipal grid workload alone.  Secondary Unit (Approx. 22 Years Old): Completely out of service due to extensive mechanical and hydraulic degradation.

Diagnostic assessments determined that completely overhauling the 22-year-old chassis, obsolete hydraulic actuators, and vacuum system would cost approximately the same as purchasing a modern, fully warrantied replacement truck, without offering equivalent service life or reliability.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
Operating with a single gate valve vehicle presents significant operational vulnerabilities to the City of Compton:
 Mitigation of Water Main Emergencies: When an underground main ruptures, crews must reach and turn multiple isolation valves within minutes. If the single operating truck breaks down or is assigned to field maintenance across the City, crews cannot clear flooded valve boxes or close stuck valves quickly. This delay increases the risk of catastrophic road collapses, private property flooding, expensive street washouts, and widespread boil-water advisories.  Fire Safety and Grid Resiliency: Water mains supply local fire hydrants. When crews cannot operate stuck or broken gate valves during line breaks, broader water zones must be shut down, depressurizing nearby fire hydrants and impairing life-safety operations.
 Procurement Compliance and Cooperative Savings: Sourcewell is a public purchasing cooperative created under Minnesota Statutes Section 123A.21 that Staff Report- Rush Truck Centers
Gate Valve Utility Truck

conducts competitive solicitations nationwide on behalf of local governments.

Following competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) #032824, Sourcewell awarded master Contract #032824-RTG to Rush Truck Centers for Class 4–8 Chassis and Cabs with Related Equipment, Accessories, and Services (effective through July 9, 2028). Rush Medium-Duty Truck Centers of California, Inc. dba Rush Truck Center, Ceres is an authorized operating subsidiary under this competitively bid agreement. Utilizing this cooperative procurement contract satisfies municipal competitive bidding standards while saving City staff administrative time and advertising expenses.
 Vehicle and Equipment Specifications: Rush Truck Centers provided a firm quotation under Sourcewell Contract #032824-RTG consisting of:
o Chassis: 2027 Ford F-450 4x2 Regular Cab DRW, 7.3L V8 gasoline engine, 16,500 lb. GVWR, dual heavy-duty batteries, 350-amp alternator, and backup safety systems.
o Upfit (Pres Tech Equipment Company): Model D1HWG body coated in safety yellow with spray-on protective bed liner, 100-gallon hydro tank, PT1000 valve exerciser mounted on slide tracks, Drive One motor, highpower vacuum recovery system, dual underbody tool compartments, dual key storage boxes, and amber beacon/LED perimeter safety strobe systems.
 Lead Time and Quotation Schedule: The Pres Tech specialized upfit requires an estimated manufacturing and installation window of 35 to 40 weeks following chassis delivery to their Huntington Beach facility. The proposed quotation remains valid through November 13, 2026. Prompt Council approval guarantees the pricing and secures the fabrication production queue without exposure to manufacturer price adjustments.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total turnkey purchase price is $259,154.41, which includes an established 1.5% Sourcewell member discount off the chassis MSRP.

October 13, 2026
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: COMPTON FIRE DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

COMPTON AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER

INTO A PURCHASING AGREEMENT AND ISSUE A PURCHASE

ORDER TO BEECHER EMISSION SOLUTION TECHNOLOGIES,

LLC DBA WARD DIESEL FILTER SYSTEMS, TO REPLACE THE

PLYMOVENT EQUIPMENT SYSTEMS LOCATED AT ALL FOUR
(4) FIRE STATIONS ($353,770.20)

SUMMARY
Adoption of this resolution will authorize the City Manager to enter into a purchasing agreement and issue a purchase order to Beecher Emission Solution Technologies, LLC DBA Ward Diesel Filter Systems (“Ward Diesel Filter Systems”) in the amount not to exceed Three Hundred and Fifty-Three Thousand Seven Hundred Seventy Dollars and Twenty Cents ($353,770.20) to replace the plymovent equipment systems located at all four (4) Fire stations.

BACKGROUND
Clean air is something that most take for granted. Everywhere people work, visible and invisible air pollutants; such as, oil mist, vehicle emissions and dust are a hazard to people’s health. Diesel engines used in fire trucks, produce a mixture of toxic gases and particulates from the combustion process.

As part of its ongoing maintenance to improve workplace safety and reduce exposure to harmful contaminants, the Department has identified the need to enhance diesel exhaust mitigation within fire stations.

These hazardous vehicle exhaust emissions in a fire station are one of a firefighter’s most significant cancer health risks and limiting particulate and gas exposure is vital for maintaining safe working conditions for firefighters, EMS crews, patients, and the public. Our current plymovent system is dated and in need of replacement.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE

10. Staff Report – Diesel Exhaust Filtration System
October 13, 2026

To address this need, the Department seeks to purchase and install a Diesel Exhaust Filtration System from Ward Diesel Filter Systems to every fire apparatus the Department has.

This multi-pronged, automated system prevents diesel exhaust particulates and gases from spreading throughout the station and apparatus areas, activating during engine startup, remaining engaged during station departure, and operating while apparatus back into the station.

Additionally, while responding to calls, the system allows for filtration during idle times on scene, further reducing exposure risks for personnel and community members. Implementing this system will support the Department’s goal of improving air quality, enhancing health and safety standards, and ensuring compliance with best practices for emergency service operations.

Ward Diesel Filter Systems will provide NO SMOKE which is an apparatusmounted, direct-source diesel exhaust particulate capture system that works automatically to help protect crews from the dangers of breathing diesel exhaust. This system does not require manual hosed hook-ups in the station and requires no routine maintenance or cleaning.

Ward Diesel Filter Systems is dedicated to reducing Firefighter cancer risk through exhaust removal. Firefighters are not only at risk when they arrive on tragic and hazardous scenes, but before they leave the station, coming back to the station and routine station movement in the bay area can create an environment where firefighters are exposed to hazardous exhaust.

Based on Ward Diesel Filter Systems’ vast experience and recent similar work with other fire departments entities in the State of California and across the US, City staff have determined they are uniquely qualified to perform this work.

Pursuant to the City’s procurement policies, a sole-source procurement is justified when:
 Only one vendor is qualified to do the work or provide the product.  An emergency exists of such magnitude that cannot permit delay.  Competition is determined to be inadequate after solicitation of a number of sources.

As a sole source provider with recognized expertise in fire apparatus diesel exhaust filtration, Ward Diesel Filter Systems eliminates the need for a timeconsuming procurement process and ensures immediate access to a product.

Staff recommends that the City purchase the NO SMOKE, direct source diesel exhaust filtration systems from Ward Diesel Filter Systems.

Staff Report – Diesel Exhaust Filtration System
October 13, 2026

City Council approval is needed because the expenditure exceeds $50,000.00.

FISCAL IMPACT
The cost to purchase the NO SMOKE, direct source diesel exhaust filtration systems is Three Hundred Thousand Fifty-Three Dollars and Twenty Cents ($353,770.20).

Funds for this expenditure are available in the Fire Department’s 2026-2027 Fiscal Year budget in Account No. 1001-690-000-4240.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending that the City Council adopt the attached resolution.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: JEROME GROOMES, INTERIM CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 26,101, ADOPTED JULY 23, 2024, AND

AUTHORIZING PAYMENT OF THE REMAINING LEASE OBLIGATIONS

UNDER THE FIVE-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH ENTERPRISE FLEET
MANAGEMENT, INC. FOR THE LEASE OF THIRTY-TWO (32)
VEHICLES, INCLUDING AN ADDITIONAL FIFTEEN PERCENT (15%)

AUTHORIZATION FOR ANTICIPATED EXCESS VEHICLE MILEAGE
FOR THE PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT ($847,444.38)

SUMMARY
Adoption of the attached resolution will amend Resolution No. 26,101, adopted by the City Council on July 23, 2024, and clarify the City's authorization for payment of the remaining lease obligations for Fiscal Years 2025-2026 through 2028-2029 under the existing five-year agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. for the lease of thirty-two (32) vehicles for the Public Safety Department.

Under the original resolution, the City authorized expenditures totaling $1,002,434.40 for the five-year contractual period from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2029. This amount included the first-year vehicle lease, maintenance, Geotab GPS services, and the onetime cost of after-market vehicle equipment.

The City has paid $265,526.24 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, which included first-year leaserelated costs of $184,227.04 and the one-time after-market vehicle upgrades of $81,299.20.

The remaining base lease obligation for Fiscal Years 2025-2026 through 2028-2029 is $736,908.16, based on an annual lease-related expenditure of $184,227.04 per year.

Due to the expansion of Department operations, additional staffing, and extended hours and days of service, the Department anticipates that vehicle usage and mileage will increase during the remaining term of the agreement. Accordingly, the proposed resolution includes an additional fifteen percent (15%) authorization, or $110,536.22, to provide for anticipated excess vehicle mileage charges at the rate of .50 cents per mile for anything over 25,000 miles at the end of the lease period.

11. STAFF REPORT: ENTERPRISE FLEET MANAGEMENT, INC
PAGE 2, OCTOBER 13, 2026
The total authorization for the remaining four fiscal years, including the 15% anticipated excess mileage allowance, is $847,444.38. The City is not requesting to encumber the full remaining financial obligation in the amount of $847,444.38 at this time.

The City is requesting to appropriate and transfer funds in the amount of $368,454.08 from Fleet Balance to Account No. 6000-670-000-4333 and issue a purchase order to Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. for outstanding obligations for Fiscal Years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027.

The proposed Resolution will establish a revised total five-year authorization of $1,112,970.62, consisting of $265,526.24 in expenditures for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and $847,444.38 for the remaining four fiscal years, subject to the terms and conditions of the existing agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc.

The 15% anticipated excess mileage allowance will be billed at the end of the contract and as applicable pursuant to the terms of the agreement.

Funding for the remaining lease obligations for each subsequent fiscal year, FY 27-28 and FY 28-29, will be provided through the annual budget adoptions.

BACKGROUND
On July 23, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 26,101 authorizing the City Manager to amend the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 budget, enter into a five-year agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. for the lease of thirty-two (32) vehicles, and issue a purchase order to AA Emergency Light, Inc. for the installation of after-market public safety equipment.

The Public Safety Department encompasses the Code Enforcement, Parking Enforcement, Business License, and Security divisions. At the time of the original request, the Department's fleet was significantly aged, with the majority of the vehicles having been in service for more than fifteen (15) years. The leasing program was proposed as a means of improving fleet reliability, reducing vehicle downtime, and supporting the Department's operational needs.

The original agreement provided for the lease of thirty-two (32) vehicles, including four (4) RAM 1500 pickup trucks, ten (10) Nissan Ariya electric SUVs, eight (8) Chevrolet Equinox SUVs, and ten (10) Chevrolet Trax SUVs. The agreement also included vehicle maintenance and Geotab GPS services.

The first-year costs were as follows:

STAFF REPORT: ENTERPRISE FLEET MANAGEMENT, INC
PAGE 3, OCTOBER 13, 2026
Enterprise Fleet Management Quantity Year 1 Cost
RAM 1500 Quad Cab Pickup 4 $28,652.00
Nissan Ariya Midsize EV SUV 10 $58,340.00
Chevrolet Equinox Compact SUV 8 $41,759.00
Chevrolet Trax Compact SUV 10 $39,360.00
Maintenance 32 $15,437.00
Geotab GPS Plan, including tax 32 $679.04
Enterprise Year 1 Total 32 $184,227.04
AA Emergency Light, Inc. – One-Time Upgrades $81,299.20 Total FY 2024-2025 Expenditure $265,526.24
The existing signed five-year agreement remains in effect through June 30, 2029. The base annual lease-related expenditure is $184,227.04 for each of the remaining four fiscal years .

This equates to an annual cost of approximately $5,757.00 per vehicle.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The City has fulfilled the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 expenditure authorized under Resolution No. 26,101, totaling $265,526.24.

The existing five-year agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. remains in effect and requires the City to make the remaining annual lease payments for Fiscal Years 2025-2026, 2026-2027, 2027-2028, and 2028-2029.

The original resolution authorized the five-year agreement and expenditures, however the funds were not fully encumbered, and the purchase order was allowed to close at the end of FY 24-25 and the remaining funds were transferred to the Fund Balance. Funds were not allocated in FY25-26 and FY 26-27 budgets to pay the annual lease payments.

The Department has added staff and expanded operational needs, including extended hours and days of service. These changes are expected to result in increased vehicle usage and mileage during the remaining term of the agreement. To ensure adequate STAFF REPORT: ENTERPRISE FLEET MANAGEMENT, INC
PAGE 4, OCTOBER 13, 2026
funding is available for potential excess mileage charges, staff is requesting an additional 15% authorization for the remaining four years of lease expenditures.

The remaining base lease obligations are as follows:

Fiscal Year Base Annual Lease Cost
Fiscal Year 2025-2026 $184,227.04
Fiscal Year 2026-2027 $184,227.04
Fiscal Year 2027-2028 $184,227.04
Fiscal Year 2028-2029 $184,227.04
Sub-total $736,908.16
15% Additional Authorization $110,536.22
Grand Total $847,444.38
The City Council is therefore being asked to amend Resolution No. 26,101 and adopt a new resolution that clearly authorizes payment of the remaining $736,908.16 base lease obligation, including an additional $110,536.22 authorization for anticipated excess vehicle mileage, for a total remaining authorization of $847,444.38.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Resolution No. 26,101 authorized a total expenditure of $1,002,434.40 over the five-year contractual period from July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2029. Of this amount, $265,526.24 has been paid for Fiscal Year 2024-2025.

The remaining base financial obligation under the existing agreement for Fiscal Years 2025-2026, 2026-2027, 2027-2028, and 2028-2029 shall not exceed Eight Hundred Forty-Seven Thousand Four Hundred Forty-Four Dollars and Thirty-Eight Cents ($847,444.38).

The City is not requesting to encumber the full $847,444.38 at this time.

Upon approval of this Resolution, the City Council will authorize the City Manager to amend the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget, appropriate and transfer Three Hundred SixtyEight Thousand Four Hundred Fifty-Four Dollars and Eight Cents ($368,454.08) from Fleet Fund balance to Account No. 6000-670-000-4333, and issue a purchase order to Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. for outstanding obligations for Fiscal Years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027.

Funding for the lease obligations for each of the remaining subsequent fiscal years 2027- 2028 and 2028-2029 will be provided through the annual budget adoptions.

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A THREE-YEAR

AGREEMENT WITH RESTORATION DIVERSION SERVICES FOR THE
LEASE OF CITY-OWNED PROPERTY LOCATED AT 206 NORTH LONG

BEACH BOULEVARD

SUMMARY
The City Council will consider a request by the Restoration Diversion Services organization to authorize the City Manager to enter into a three (3) year lease (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2029) agreement for the lease of approximately 805 square feet of indoor space and 4,195 square feet of outdoor space at City-owned property located at 206 North Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, CA 90221.

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton (“City”) owns certain real property located at 206 North Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, California 90221. Pursuant to guidance from the City Council in November 2012, the City Manager implemented a City-wide leasing policy which mandates that City-owned facilities and/or property shall not be leased without first obtaining proper authorization from the City Council (i.e. an adopted resolution) and execution of a written lease agreement [City of Compton Standard Operating Manual, Policy 4.17(A)]. In addition to other matters, the Policy specifies that lease rates shall be based on the square footage of the area(s) subject to the exclusive use/occupation of the Lessee and that the standard leasing rate in a City-owned facility shall be at least One Dollar ($1.00) per square foot for indoor space and Fifty Cents ($0.50) per square foot for outdoor space or vacant property.

In addition to this required minimum base rental rate, the leasing policy addresses recovery of the costs incurred by the City for the provision of the following services: utilities (gas, electricity, water, trash, etc.), maintenance and repairs, custodial services, and City security. However, the leasing policy does provide that a Tenant that has exclusive use/occupancy of the entire City facility and/or property shall be solely responsible for all utilities, janitorial, security, and minor, routine interior and exterior maintenance of the facility or property, with the City responsible for structural and major repairs and maintenance.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
According to the prospective Tenant, Restoration Diversion Services, founded in 2009, is a non-profit human services organization committed to serving the community in need by offering services and programs to victims of sex trafficking, such as snacks, toiletries, condoms, STI educational resources, GED preparation, a place to shower, and additional resources based on the participants' needs. Restoration Diversion Services' mission is to provide a drop-in center offering temporary shelter, long-term housing, and other support services. Restoration Diversion Services collaborates with the Mary Magdalene Project, which is a court-ordered diversion program. The Mary Magdalene Project is an 18-session program addressing issues women encounter when departing the prostitution and sex trafficking industries.

The Mayor and Council authorized lease agreements for exclusive use and occupancy of the City-owned property at 206 North Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, CA 90221 on the following dates:
 On November 3, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 24,658, which authorized Restoration Diversion Services to enter into a lease agreement for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on October 1, 2017, and ending on August 31, 2018.  On November 22, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25,142, which authorized Restoration Diversion Services to enter into a lease agreement for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on November 1, 2019, and ending on October 31, 2020.  On October 24, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 26,123, which authorized Restoration Diversion Services to enter into a lease agreement for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on November 1, 2024, and ending on October 31, 2025.

Pursuant to Council discretion and authority, the rental amount for the lease term was reduced to One Dollar ($1.00) per year for each of the above-referenced lease agreements.

Restoration Diversion Services seeks City Council approval to continue leasing the building for a three-year lease agreement, beginning November 1, 2026, and ending October 31, 2029. The proposed lease agreement will provide Restoration Diversion Services with exclusive use of the following space at 206 N. Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, California 90221:

Exclusive Indoor Square Footage: 805 square feet
Exclusive Outdoor Square Footage: 4,195 square feet
Total Exclusive Square Footage: 5,000 square feet

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Unless the City Council decides to waive the minimum lease rate provisions of Policy

4.17(A)(1) of the City of Compton Leasing Policy, the estimated fiscal impact of the proposed action is a monthly lease revenue of Two Thousand Nine Hundred Two Dollars and Fifty Cents ($2,902.50) to the General Fund for the term of the lease for an annual amount of Thirty-Four Thousand Eight Hundred Thirty Dollars and Zero Cents ($34,830.00).

ALTERNATIVE
The Council has discretion to choose among a number of options:

1. Authorize the City Manager to enter into a lease agreement with Restoration Diversion Services for a three (3) year term (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2029) as requested (or offer a lesser term) as follows:
a. For the minimally recommended City policy rates of $1.00 per square foot for 805 square feet of indoor space and $0.50 per square foot for 4,195 square feet of outdoor space, for a total monthly rental amount of $2,902.50. b. For some other monthly rental rate.
______________ per month, or ___________ per year.

2. Deny the request to enter into a lease agreement for this location by Restoration Diversion Services.

RECOMMENDATION

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A TWENTYFOUR (24) MONTH LEASE AGREEMENT WITH THE SECRET PLACE

CHURCH FOR THE LEASE OF CITY-OWNED PROPERTY LOCATED AT
700 NORTH BULLIS ROAD

SUMMARY
The City Council will consider a request from The Secret Place Church organization and authorize the City Manager to enter into a Twenty-Four (24) Month (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2028), agreement for the lease of approximately 676 square feet of dedicated indoor space at City-owned property, located at 700 North Bullis Road, commonly known as the “CareerLink” facility.

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton owns certain real property located at 700 North Bullis Road, commonly known as the “CareerLink” facility. This property is used as a “sharedoccupancy” facility, offering indoor space for leasing to outside agencies, organizations, and individuals.

On November 31, 2023, staff received a request from The Secret Place Church to lease office space at CareerLink located at 700 North Bullis Road. In addition to the office space, The Secret Place Church requested to use the facility’s auditorium during the City of Compton’s Non-Business Hours. The cost varies depending on the hours and days that The Secret Place Church requests to use the facility. Staff have billed The Secret Place Church in advance for each requested Non-Business Hours occurrence and will continue this practice for all future lease agreements.

On December 19, 2023, the Mayor and City Council authorized Resolution No. 25,952 to enter into an agreement for the period from December 1, 2023, through November 30, 2024. The Secret Place Church is currently occupying the premises on a month-to-month holdover basis.

Pursuant to guidance of the City Council, in November 2012, the City Manager implemented a City-wide leasing policy which mandates that City-owned facilities and/or property shall not be leased without first obtaining proper authorization from the City Council (i.e. an adopted resolution) and execution of a written lease agreement [City of

13. Staff Report – Resolution Authorizing Lease
700 North Bullis Road (676 Indoor Sq. Ft.)
The Secret Place Church
October 13, 2026, Page 2
Compton Standard Operating Manual, Policy 4.17(A)(1)]. In addition to other matters, the Policy specifies that lease rates shall be based on the square footage of the area(s) subject to the shared-occupancy of the Lessee and that the standard leasing rate for indoor floor space in a City-owned facility shall be at least One Dollar ($1.00) per square foot.

In addition to the base minimum rental rate of $1.00 per square foot for indoor space, proposed lease agreements are to address the City's costs for utilities, outdoor maintenance, and major repairs for shared space. The City Controller has identified the cost as Two Dollars and Two Cents ($2.02) per square foot.

Thus, the cost to the City will be recovered through a recommended minimum monthly rental rate based on a square-footage charge of $3.02 (i.e., a $ 1.00 per square foot base rental rate plus $2.02 per square foot for utilities, outdoor maintenance, and major repairs associated with shared space). Routine, basic maintenance, repairs, and upkeep for assigned square footage are not included and will remain the tenant's responsibility.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Historical Background of the Organization
The Secret Place Church was incorporated in 2016, and according to the prospective tenant, is a non-denominational, multicultural church that believes in the Word of God and reflects the vision of the Kingdom. Their mission is to provide a place where individual wholeness is achieved through prayer, preaching, and teaching the word of God. The church plans to utilize the facilities for prayer, Bible study, worship services, community outreach, leadership development, performing arts, and entrepreneurial empowerment.

This proposed lease agreement will provide The Secret Place Church with exclusive use of the following indoor space at the CareerLink facility:

Indoor square footage
Classroom 4A 676 square feet
Total Indoor Square Footage 676 square feet
If approved, the City Council will authorize the City Manager to enter into a lease agreement with The Secret Place Church for Twenty-Four (24) Month (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2028) for exclusive occupation of the above-indicated indoor spaces of the CareerLink site.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Unless the Council decides to waive the minimum lease rental rate requirements of Policy

4.17(A)(1) of the City Leasing Policy, the estimated fiscal impact of this proposed action will be a net gain to the General Fund of a base monthly lease rental rate of Two Thousand Forty-One Dollars and Fifty-Two Cents ($2,041.52) for the term of the lease for an annual amount of Twenty-Four Thousand Four Hundred Ninety-Eight Dollars and Twenty-Four Cents ($24,498.24). This amount does not include the Non-Business Hours Rate, as such charges are calculated on a per-occurrence basis; the monthly and yearly amounts are currently unknown.

ALTERNATIVE
The Council has discretion to choose from among a number of options:

1. Authorize the City Manager to enter into a lease agreement with The Secret Place Church, for the Twenty-Four (24) Month (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2028) term requested (or offer a lesser term) as follows:
a. For the minimally recommended City policy rates (i.e., $1.00 per square foot plus utilities, outdoor maintenance, and major repairs for shared space) of $2,041.52 per month.
b. For some other monthly rental rate.
______________ per month, or _____________ per year.

2. Reject the request to enter into a lease agreement for this location by The Secret Place Church.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adherence to the current Standard Operating Manual, Policy 4.17(A), at this time. However, the decision to increase lease rental amounts and/or waive other requirements of the City’s Leasing Policy is at the discretion of the City Council.

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

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A THREE-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH SYLVIA NUNN ANGELS FOR THE LEASE OF CITYOWNED PROPERTY LOCATED AT 202 NORTH LONG BEACH

BOULEVARD

SUMMARY
The City Council will consider a request by the Sylvia Nunn Angels (“Nunn”) organization to authorize the City Manager to enter into a three (3) year lease (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2029) agreement for the lease of approximately 1,983 square feet of indoor space and 3,018 of outdoor space at City-owned property, located at 202 North Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, CA 90221.

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton owns certain real property located at 202 North Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, California 90221. Pursuant to guidance of the City Council, in November 2012, the City Manager implemented a City-wide leasing policy which mandates that City-owned facilities and/or property shall not be leased without first obtaining proper authorization from the City Council (i.e. an adopted resolution) and execution of a written lease agreement [City of Compton Standard Operating Manual, Policy 4.17(A)]. In addition to other matters, the Policy specifies that lease rates shall be based on the square footage of the area(s) subject to the exclusive use/occupation of the Lessee and that the standard leasing rate in a City-owned facility shall be at least One Dollar ($1.00) per square foot for indoor space and Fifty Cents ($0.50) per square foot for outdoor space or vacant property.

In addition to this required minimum base rental rate, the leasing policy addresses recovery of the costs incurred by the City for the provision of the following services:
utilities (e.g., gas, electricity, water, trash, etc.), maintenance and repairs, custodial services, and City security. However, the leasing policy does provide that a Tenant that will have exclusive use/occupation of the entire City facility and/or property shall be solely responsible for all utilities, janitorial, security, and minor, routine interior and exterior maintenance of the facility or property, with the City responsible for structural and major repairs and maintenance.

Key services include parental support, teen and adult counseling, gang prevention/interventions, food programs, housing support referrals, and volunteer opportunities.

The Mayor and Council authorized lease agreements for exclusive use and occupancy of the City-owned property at 202 North Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, CA 90221 on the following dates:
 On March 14, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 24,532, which authorized Sylvia Nunn Angeles to enter into a lease agreement for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on March 1, 2017, and ending on February 28, 2018.  On October 8, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25,133, which authorized Sylvia Nunn Angeles to enter into a lease agreement for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on October 1, 2019, and ending on September 30, 2020.  On October 8, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 26,134, which authorized Sylvia Nunn Angeles to enter into a lease agreement for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on October 1, 2024, and ending on September 30, 2025.

Pursuant to Council discretion and authority, the rental amount for the lease term was reduced to One Dollar ($1.00) per year for each of the above-referenced lease agreements.

Nunn seeks City Council approval to continue leasing the building for three (3) year (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2029). The proposed lease agreement will provide Nunn with exclusive use of the following space at 202 N. Long Beach Boulevard, Compton, California 90221:

Unless the Council decides to waive the minimum lease rental rate requirements of Policy

4.17(A)(1) of the City Leasing Policy, the estimated fiscal impact of this proposed action will be a net gain to the General Fund of a base monthly lease rental rate of Three Thousand Four Hundred Ninety-Two Dollars and Zero Cents ($3,492.00) per month for the term of the lease for an annual amount of Forty-One Thousand Nine Hundred Four Dollars and Zero Cents ($41,904.00).

ALTERNATIVE
The Council has discretion to choose among a number of options:

1. Authorize the City Manager to enter into a lease agreement with Sylvia Nunn Angels for a three (3) year term (i.e., November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2029) as requested (or offer a lesser term) as follows:
a. For the minimally recommended City policy rates of $1.00 per square foot for indoor space [i.e., 1,983 Sq. Ft.] and $0.50 per square foot for outdoor space [i.e., 3,018 Sq. Ft.] of $3,492.00 per month.
b. Authorize an annual lease-rate reduction of One Dollar ($1.00) per year, consistent with previously referenced lease agreements. c. For some other monthly rental rate.
______________ per month, or _____________ per year.

2. Deny the request to enter into a lease agreement for this location by Sylvia Nunn Angels.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adherence to the current Standard Operating Manual, Policy 4.17(A) at this time. However, the decision to increase lease rental amounts and/or waive other requirements of the City’s Leasing Policy is at the discretion of the City Council.
