EXECUTION VERSION
29 EXHIBIT 1 – PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Part A: WSAB Project
The WSAB Project is a new 19-mile light rail transit (LRT) line that will connect southeast LA County to downtown Los Angeles, serving the cities and communities of Artesia, Cerritos, Bellflower, Paramount, Downey, South Gate, Cudahy, Bell, Huntington Park, Vernon, unincorporated Florence-Graham community of LA County and downtown Los Angeles.

The project area is home to 1.2 million residents and is a job center to approximately 584,000 employees. Projections show the resident population increasing to 1.5 million and jobs increasing to 670,000 by 2040. Population and employment densities are five times higher than the LA County average. This rail corridor is anticipated to serve commuters in a high travel demand corridor by providing relief to the limited transportation systems currently available to these communities. In addition, the project is expected to provide a direct connection to the Metro Green Line, Metro Blue Line and the LA County regional transit network. The WSAB Project involves a shared corridor of approximately 10 miles of freight-owned ROW that runs along the Wilmington and La Habra Branches (owned by Union Pacific Railroad, UPRR) and the San Pedro Subdivision (owned by the Ports of LA and Long Beach).

The main goals of the WSAB Project are to:

1. Provide mobility improvements

2. Support local and regional land use plans and policies

3. Minimize environmental impacts

4. Ensure cost effectiveness and financial feasibility

5. Promote equity

1. GENERAL DESIGN CRITERIA
Any Design work for any Rearrangements shall be performed in accordance with:
(a) the Design requirements set out in this EXHIBIT 5 or otherwise under the provisions of this Agreement and the relevant Work Order (if applicable); and (b) all Governmental Approvals, Applicable Law and, subject to Section 3.5 (City Standards) of this Agreement, the City Standards.

2. CITY STANDARDS
The Parties agree that for the purposes of this Agreement, the "City Standards" will be those City design standards and ordinances notified by the City to LACMTA or otherwise incorporated in an amendment of this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.5 (City Standards) of the Agreement.

3. SPECIFIC DESIGN REQUIREMENTS FOR REARRANGEMENTS

3.1 Surface Openings. To the extent operationally and fiscally practical, LACMTA shall locate surface openings, if any to mitigate: (a) the effect on existing features of landscape and improvements; and (b) public disruption; in each case after taking account of health and safety concerns. Placement of gratings in sidewalks will be avoided to the extent reasonably practicable; however, all other openings, such as mechanical access openings, shall be regularly permitted in sidewalks, provided such openings are enclosed.

3.2 Landscaping. Trees and landscaped areas under ownership or daily control of the City shall be preserved whenever practical. Trees in the Project Site, which are not being removed by LACMTA, shall be adequately protected. Trees that must be removed due to Rearrangements shall be replaced by LACMTA, if the City elects and right-of-way is available. Replacement work shall be in accordance with applicable City Standards and shall be coordinated with the City. Landscaped areas removed due to Rearrangements shall be restored to the original condition to the extent practical as agreed to by the City and LACMTA.

3.3 Traffic Control Devices and Lighting Systems. If a Rearrangement requires the removal and reinstallation, or modification of existing or installation of new traffic control devices or lighting systems ("Traffic Control and Lighting Work"), then LACMTA must obtain the City's approval of LACMTA's Design for the Traffic Control and Lighting Work (which consent may not be unreasonably delayed or withheld).

3.4 Private Projections in Public Ways. If LACMTA determines that a private projection in, over or under any City Facilities or the City Rights-of-Way must be removed to accommodate the WSAB Project, LACMTA will issue a Work Order to the City and the City shall take all reasonable actions within its powers to require the elimination of such projections by the time specified in the Work Order. If the City is not empowered to effect the removal of such projections, or if LACMTA otherwise elects, LACMTA will make its own arrangements for removal of such projections. The City will cooperate with LACMTA to minimize the cost to eliminate, move, remove or otherwise terminate projections.

3.5 City Communications Facilities. The relocation of any conflicting underground City communications facilities shall be done by employing intercept-style manholes at both ends of every conflicting communications conduit segment in question, directly on the alignment of existing conduit segment(s), and beyond the area of the conflicting communications facilities.

Partnering with Hub Cities Consortium has provided many youths with work experience in the City of Cudahy, preparing them for career or employment opportunities. The City has hired some individuals who were referred through their program.

Hub Cities Consortium plans to relocate to an upgraded, state-of-the-art facility in the City of South Gate within a couple of months, where it can provide more resources to the communities it serves. Due to a shortfall of $1.2 million, Hub Cities is asking for the City’s financial support to help cover part of the remaining cost.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
If approved, the proposed augmentation and appropriation would have a financial impact of $100,000 for FY 2022-23 and use Committed Fund Balance for Strategic Plan Program Implementation.

CONCLUSION
Upon Council’s approval, staff will proceed with adequate actions to deliver the financial support. If Council disapproves, then no action is necessary.

Dear Alfonso Noyola,
Hub Cities Consortium is proud to work with the six city members of the Joint Powers Authority (JPA) to relocate its Southeast Los Angeles America’s Job Center (AJCC) to a new state of the art facility to be located at 4370 Tweedy Avenue in the City of South Gate. The County of Los Angeles, through the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) and the State of California Employment Development Department (EDD) are committed to a several million-dollar investment to relocate the AJCC facility.

Government contract requirements caused an issue with the negotiation of the lease as there are costs that cannot be funded with the WDACS funds earmarked for the project. The project was faced with additional delays from the pandemic and the skyrocketing costs of construction. Despite additional contributions from the city of South Gate, the County and EDD, the project faces a $1.2 million shortfall. The project will have to be phased to construct only a portion of the building interiors while we seek additional resources.

We are enclosing a packet for your review. It contains a description of the work we do along with a floor plan of the new facility. We are also including detailed budget information that illustrates our current shortfall and lastly, we have a participant success story from one of your residents to highlight the impact our center has made in your city.

We are requesting that the city of Cudahy consider providing Hub Cities a minimum of $200,000 in financial support. Without these necessary funds, it remains uncertain if Hub Cities Consortium can continue to provide these important workforce services to SELA.

HUB CITIES CONSORTIUM
Mission
Hub Cities Consortium (HCC), is a joint powers agency, which was founded in 1987 by cities in Southeast Los Angeles (SELA) County to establish an organization that would be uniquely committed to providing workforce development and related services within the economically challenged communities of the region. HCC began operating County-funded programs under the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) in 1988 and now the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA). HCC currently serves as the operator of the Southeast Los Angeles America’s Job Center of California (AJCC) as well as the Slawson Affiliate AJCC in the city of Bell.

Vision: “Hub Cities Consortium (HCC) will advance the economic well-being of the region and develop a worldclass workforce by providing universal access to information and resources for job seekers, businesses, and the community at large; by serving as the access point to workforce systems; by empowering job seekers to achieve self-sufficiency; and by working with the business community to meet their current and future needs.” HCC delivers services to the residents of Bell Gardens, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Lynwood, Maywood, South Gate, Bell, Vernon and the unincorporated areas of Bandini Islands, Florence-Graham and Walnut Park as well as the surrounding communities. HCC is extremely proud of our strong history. We have provided high quality programs and services to job seekers and businesses within the Southeast Los Angeles (SELA) community where our skilled and experienced staff has been able to help job seekers access employment, education, training, and support services to succeed in the labor market and to match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy.

Over the last 35 years, HCC has served over 1.5 million job seekers in the Southeast Los Angeles region ranging from degreed professionals, displaced workers due to lay-offs, to at-risk youth lacking the most fundamental work-related skills. By developing a comprehensive menu of workforce development services, we have been able to meet the needs of a variety of job seekers including but not limited to the following:
• New entrants to the workforce
• Low-Income
• Older workers (55 & older)
• Workers lacking basic skills
• Veterans
• Individuals with disabilities
• Justice involved/ex-offenders
• Incumbent Workers
• Foster youth in transition
• Homeless individuals
• At risk Youth (ages14-24)
• Public Assistance Recipients
• School Dropouts
• Displaced Workers
We have assisted thousands of local businesses as well as managed well over $175,000,000 in funding for the Southeast LA Communities. Notably, we supported the opening of the Azalea shopping center in the city of South Gate by assisting over 30 businesses and coordinating over 1200 new hires. We exceeded the local hire requirement set at 35% by ensuring that 85% of all new hires were local residents; 75% of which were residents from the city of South Gate.

SUCCESS STORY
Please see below participant success story from the city of Cudahy For the past year, Hub Cities staff has been working with a 17-year-old male, who resides in the city of Cudahy.

He is a current foster attending Bell High School. The youth and his younger brother are currently living with their older sister in a one-bedroom apartment. His sister is a single parent, that supports her own family, the youth, and his little brother. As a result, the family has a difficult time keeping up with household expenses. He also, was in danger of not passing most of his 11th grade high school classes.

The youth was referred to our office by one of our partners (LAUSD) to provide him with youth services information and provide some counseling on work opportunities and career paths. Hub Cities staff was able to meet with the youth and not only provided youth with work experience information, financial literacy, but boosted his self-esteem to the point that he successfully passed all his 11th grade classes; he was able to maintain a 3.0 GPA for the 2021-2022 school year. He has earned enough credits to begin his school year as a 12th grader and will be the first one of his family to graduate from high school. The youth participant expressed that Hub Cities staff has played a positive role in his life. Upon graduating high school, he is making plans to attend college.

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2022
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager
By: City Attorney’s Office
Subject: Consideration to Adopt a Proposed Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Cudahy Establishing a Prohibition on Residential Rent Increases

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council take one of the following actions:

1. Discuss and consider adoption of proposed Ordinance No. 725 establishing a temporary prohibition on residential rent increases for 90 days with the ability to extend further and direct the Rent Control Ad Hoc Committee provide findings to the City Council within 90 days, December 5, 2022, of the impact of rent control in the City; or

2. Take no further action and receive and file this report.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Staff was requested to prepare an Ordinance temporarily freezing residential rent increases for City Council discussion. It is anticipated that during the prescribed 90-day moratorium period freezing residential rental rate increases in the City of Cudahy (“City”), the established Ad Hoc Rent Control subcommittee can study the relevant issues pertaining to housing and rent control and make recommendations to the City Council.

On July 5, 2022, the City Council considered this same Ordinance as an urgency Ordinance which necessitated a vote of four-fifths of the City Council. The Ordinance was unsuccessful and failed. Subsequently, staff was requested to prepare the same Ordinance as a non-urgency, which will make it effective 30 days after the City Council adoption of the Ordinance’s second reading. At this time, should the Ordinance be adopted by first reading during the meeting of September 6, 2022, the anticipated second reading would take place during the September 20, 2022 City Council Meeting.

Item Number

“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report

Thus, the proposed 90-day moratorium period freezing residential rental rate increases in the City would commence October 20, 2022 and expire on January 18, 2023 unless extended. The City Council should consider the prospect of landlords raising rents for residential tenancies commencing October 1, 2022, in light of an anticipated moratorium.

The County of Los Angeles (“County”) currently has a COVID-19 Tenant Protections Resolution that remains in effect through December 31,2022. This resolution applies to all cities and unincorporated areas in the County. However, the rent increase freeze under the County resolution only applies to rent stabilized units and mobilehome spaces in unincorporated areas of the County.

Under State rent control law, landlords are permitted to increase rent by five (5) percent of the base rent plus the current CPI (Consumer Price Index), totaling no more than a 10 percent rate increase.

This Ordinance contains a petition process for landlords to undertake should they seek a residential rental rate increase during the 90-day moratorium period. A landlord may file a petition with the City’s Community Development Department if they contend that the moratorium will prevent them from receiving a fair and reasonable return with respect to the residential rental units they lease out. The tenant(s) shall be provided a copy of the petition and notice of the scheduled hearing before the City’s Hearing Officer. The tenant(s) and landlord can testify at the hearing, with a written decision subsequently issued. Parties can have the Hearing Officer’s written decision reviewed by the Superior Court.

If the temporary rent freeze is not imposed, vulnerable residents who are already rent burdened and struggling with high housing costs may be subjected to immediate rent increases at maximum allowable levels before the City Council could consider and adopt a comprehensive and permanent rent control Ordinance.

Should the City Council adopt this proposed Ordinance, it will become effective 30 days after adoption, on October 20, 2022, for a period of 90 days, expiring on January 18, 2023, unless extended by City Council action.

CONCLUSION
The proposed Ordinance temporarily prohibits residential rent increases for 90 days, as may be extended, to prevent exacerbating hardship and potential displacement for vulnerable households in the City that could result from rent increases imposed before possible enactment of a rent control Ordinance. During the period, both the ad hoc committee and staff will further

study and analyze possible rent control and tenant protection programs in other jurisdictions, rental market analysis, program administration, staffing and costs, and prepare a draft rent control Ordinance for future consideration by the full City Council.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

CUDAHY, CALIFORNIA ESTABLISHING A PROHIBITION

OF RENT INCREASES ON CERTAIN RESIDENTIAL
PROPERTIES FOR NINETY (90) DAYS WITH THE ABILITY

TO EXTEND FURTHER
WHEREAS, the City of Cudahy (“the City”) is a general law city, incorporated under the laws of the State of California; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to its police power, the City may enact and enforce laws within its boundaries that promote the public health, morals, safety, or general welfare of the community, and are not in conflict with general laws; and WHEREAS, rents throughout Los Angeles County are continuing to rise despite the State’s Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (Tenant Protection Act), and as housing costs rise, many local residents continue to struggle with a decrease in affordability, housing insecurity, and potential homelessness, particularly low-income households and those persons who continue to be negatively impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; and
WHEREAS, Los Angeles County and the cities within the County are experiencing a housing affordability crisis, which is driving homelessness and displacement of residents; and
WHEREAS, many of the City’s renters are rent-burdened, paying over 30 percent of their income on rent, and some renters are severely rent-burdened, paying over 50 percent of their income on rent, which leaves less money for families to spend on other necessitates like food, healthcare, transportation, and education; and WHEREAS, housing displacement due to rent increases hinders residents from weathering and surviving through the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including waves of infection, by preventing individuals from isolating as necessary at home due to infection or exposure; and
WHEREAS, there is an urgent need for the City to enact a temporary moratorium on rent increases to protect the health, safety, and welfare of its residents in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including the need to keep residents in their homes to isolate or shelter-in-place as necessary; and
WHEREAS, pandemic-related tenant protections under the County of Los Angeles and State of California are gradually phasing out; and
WHEREAS, current State law allows increasing annual rent five percent (5%) plus the consumer price index (CPI), up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) for properties subject to the Tenant Protection Act of 2019; and
Attachment A Page 176 of 199
2 WHEREAS, the median monthly asking rent in the U.S. rose fifteen percent (15%) year over year in May 2022 while the Los Angeles-area median asking rent of $3,400 had risen 9.6%, according to real estate firm Redfin; and
WHEREAS, this ordinance is intended to temporarily prohibit rent increases to protect tenants from rising rent costs while the City further considers and develops a permanent rent control program; and
WHEREAS, failure to adopt this ordinance may subject renters to economic hardship and potential displacement that may lead to homelessness to the detriment of the public health, safety and welfare; and
WHEREAS, on July 19, 2022, the City Council established the Rent Control Ad Hoc Committee, to analyze and study the issue of rent control and to advise and make recommendation(s) to the City Council on legislation in regards thereto; and WHEREAS, the Ralph M. Brown Act (Gov. Code, § 54950 et seq.) generally applies to meetings among a majority of the members of a legislative body when the subject relates to local agency business, however, meetings of temporary advisory, or ad hoc, committees, such as the Rent Control Ad Hoc Committee, as distinguished from standing committees with ongoing jurisdiction, made up solely of less than a quorum of a legislative body are not subject to the Brown Act; and
WHEREAS, the City Council intends that the Rent Control Ad Hoc Committee will be of a temporary duration to formulate a recommendation for full City Council consideration.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUDAHY, CALIFORNIA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Recitals. The recitals above are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 2. Findings. Based on the findings set forth in the Recitals, the City Council finds and declares this ordinance to be necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health, safety and welfare.

SECTION 3. Definitions. For the purposes of this Ordinance, the following definitions shall apply:

A. “Base Rent” means the monthly Rent that was in effect on October 20, 2022.

B. “Covered Rental Unit(s)” means any Rental Unit except for:

STAFF REPORT

To: Honorable Mayor/Chair and City Council/Agency Members From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager/Executive Director
By: Joshua Calhoun, Finance Director
Subject: Adoption of Resolution No. 22-53 Approving the Commitment of Fund Balance Pursuant to GASB 54

RECOMMENDATION
The City Council is requested to adopt Resolution No. 22-53, approving the Commitment of Fund Balance Pursuant to GASB 54.

BACKGROUND

1. On June 7, 2022, the City Council approved the General Fund Reserve Policy (Resolution 22-32) establishing classifications and policies relating to Fund Balance.

2. On August 16, 2022, the City Council provided city staff direction on the utilization of reimbursed American Recue Plan Act grant funds.

ANALYSIS
The City received a total of $5,638,206 of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) that can be used by local governments to assist in the recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The City claimed the total of $5,638,206 as allowable expenditures for public safety incurred between March 2021 to June 2022. This reimbursed the City’s General Fund for the costs during that period as a result of the pandemic.

These one-time reimbursed ARPA Funds can be used for unrestricted purposes. The City Council provided direction to city staff as part of a utilization plan. Approximately $2 million would be designated as assigned fund balance as part of the Revenue Stabilization Plan.

Approximately $1.4 would be utilized to cover total project costs and amount financed through Siemens Financial as part of the City-Wide Energy Efficiency Facilities Modernization Project. Additionally, would assign $600,000 for as needed project costs arising from the Item Number
16G

Page 193 of 199 ends

Staff Report

Facilities Modernization Project.

The remaining $1 million would be designed as Committed Fund Balance as approved by Resolution that would be used solely for Strategic Plan Program Implementation. The result would require a resolution approved by the City Council to utilize these funds for such programs detailing which Strategic Plan goal it would achieve.

The Finance Department will provide monthly financial reports to the City Council summarizing the ongoing use of these funds for transparency.

CONCLUSION
The proposed resolution follows the City’s Fund Balance Policy and would provide more control over the use of these funds by designating them as Committed Fund Balance.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The proposed resolution are technical in nature and will enable the Finance Director to make necessary assignment and commitment to the City’s fund balance.

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2022
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager
By: Juan Arauz, Community Development Director
Subject: City Council Discussion and Direction on the Installation of Street Striped Parking Spaces

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council take one of the following actions:

1. Discuss staff analysis on the potential installation of street striped parking spaces; and

2. Provide staff direction on how to move forward.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
On August 16, 2022, the City Council requested that staff evaluate whether the installation of striped parking spaces on the street would optimize parking. After evaluating this request, staff finds that while parking space markings on the street would impose evenly spaced parking along the curb, this would not increase the number of available spaces because vehicles are already parking at optimum spacing without markings. For example, smaller vehicles find smaller spaces while larger vehicleslook for larger spaces. Moreover, the installation ofstriped parking spaces would need to conform with the following dimensional standards recommended by Caltrans:
1) Minimum vehicle parking space length of 22 feet; and 2) Minimum red curb painted at each side of existing driveways of three feet.

Adherence to the dimensional standards listed above typically results in the overall loss of street parking. For example, a curb between two driveways with a length of 40 feet typically Item Number
16H

Page 197 of 199 ends

“Serving The People "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report

parks two standard sedans. However, using the Caltrans standards, this 40 foot curb would be painted and marked for only one vehicle. Below are exhibits depicting this scenario from a location in the city.

Exhibit 1 – Existing Curb at 3829 Walnut Street
Exhibit 2 – Example of Striped Parking at 3829 Walnut Street In the scenario shown above, the installation of striped parking using the Caltrans dimensional standards would reduce the availability of vehicle parking at this location.

In addition to the loss of vehicle parking spaces, enforcing vehicles parked within newly installed red curbs or parked outside the “T” marks would take up additional staff time and make it difficult to enforce other violations citywide (ex. overnight permit parking).

CONCLUSION
Based on expected impacts to street parking supply, staff recommends that City Council direct

Page 198 of 199 ends

“Serving The People "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
09/06/2022 Page 3 of 3

staff to take one of the following actions:
1) Receive and file this report, maintaining street parking as-is; or 2) Instruct staff to solicit consulting services to evaluate the effects of installing striped parking spaces.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Not applicable.
