STAFF REPORT
Date: April 16, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor/Chair and City Council/Agency Members From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager/Executive Director
By: Richard Iglesias, City Clerk
Subject: Consideration to Review and Approve the Draft Minutes of April 2, 2024, for the Regular Meeting of the City Council and the Joint Meeting of the City of Cudahy as Successor Agency and Housing Successor Agency to the Cudahy Development Commission
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council is requested to review and approve the City Council / Successor Agency Draft Minutes for April 2, 2024.
BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS
On December 12, 2016, the City Council of the City of Cudahy adopted Resolution No. 16-38, approving the use of summary action minutes, meant to allow the City Clerk's Office to write the minutes in brief, assuring a record of Council's actions, due to having a recording of the full Council Meeting on the City’s website.
Historically
The Municipal Clerk is one of the oldest professions in government, dating back to 1272 A.D., originating in England. The record keeper then was called Remembrancer, an English official whose job was to remind the Lord Treasurer and Barons of Court, of business pending.
Years later, in the 1600s, when early colonists came to America, the office of the Clerk was one of the first offices to be established. Over the years, the City Clerk’s office has become the core for local government, and the liaison to the residents of the Community. The Municipal Clerk (City Clerk) is the record keeper of a City’s recorded history.

Staff Report
04/16/2024 Page 2 of 2
William Bennett Munro, a Canadian historian, and political scientist, who taught at Harvard University and the California Institute of Technology, stated in one of his first textbooks written: “No other office in municipal service has so many contacts. It serves the Mayor, the City Council, the City Manager (when there is one), and all administrative departments, without exception. All of them call upon it, almost daily, for some service or information. Its work is not spectacular, but it demands versatility, alertness, accuracy, and no end of patience.
The public does not realize how many loose ends of city administration this office pulls together.”
Moving forward to the present time, the City Clerk’s office today is generally responsible for keeping a record of City Council meetings; agreements; recordings of official documents; legal advertisements; municipal elections; commissions and committees current files; claims against the city; and other legal or official documents.
City Clerks are required to keep record of the proceedings (minutes) of Council meetings (Government Code Sections 36814 and 40801). Minutes are the official record of a meeting which provides a history of the Council’s decisions and actions.
CONCLUSION
The City Council is requested to approve the attached City Council / Agency Draft Minutes of the proceedings of April 2, 2024.
STRATEGIC PLAN CORRELATION
No correlation to the strategic plan.
FINANCIAL IMPACT

STAFF REPORT
Date: April 16, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor/Chair and City Council/Agency Members From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager/Executive Director
By: Joshua Calhoun, Finance Director
Subject: Approval of the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) for the Month of March 2024
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council is requested to approve the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) Report for the month of March 2024 in the amount of $12,728,593.04.
BACKGROUND
1. In 1955, the Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA) started. LAIF became part of the PMIA. The oversight is provided by the Pooled Money Investment Board (PMIB) and an inhouse Investment Committee. The PMIB members consist of the State Treasurer, Director of Finance, and State Controller.
2. In 1977, LAIF was created as a voluntary program by Section 16429.1 et seq. of the California Government Code. The program was intended to be used as an investment alternative for California's local governments and special districts. The LAIF continues today under State Treasurer, Fiona Ma's administration.
3. On March 1, 2024, the balance in LAIF was $12,728,593.04 (See Attachment).
4. On March 31, 2024, the balance in LAIF was $12,728,593.04 (See Attachment).
ANALYSIS
The voluntary program offers local agencies the opportunity to participate in a major portfolio, which invests hundreds of millions of dollars, using the investment expertise of the State Item Number

Treasurer’s Office investment staff at no additional cost to the taxpayer.
All securities are purchased under the authority of Government Code Section 16430 and 16480.4. The State Treasurer's Office takes delivery of all securities purchased on a delivery versus payment basis using a third-party custodian.
Cudahy Municipal Code Section 3.04.080 indicates, "Except as otherwise provided, no warrant shall be drawn or evidence of indebtedness issued unless there shall be at the time sufficient money in the treasury legally applicable to the payment of the same."
CONCLUSION
Once the City Council approves the current LAIF, this balance may be relied upon when determining if the City has sufficient funds available to pay demands and payroll as required by Cudahy Municipal Code Section 3.04.080.
STRATEGIC PLAN CORRELATION
Strategy #2. Provide regular updates to the City Council and community about the city’s finances.

From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager
Juan Arauz, AICP, Community Development Director
Subject: Appeal of the Planning Commission’s Decision upholding the Community Development Director’s Interpretation of Section 20.80 of the Cudahy Municipal Code Relating to the Continuation of Legal Nonconforming Uses and Subsequent Denial of a Zoning Clearance to Allow a Vehicle Towing/Storage Facility at 7822 Salt Lake Avenue, in Low Density Residential (LDR) Zone
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Open the public hearing and receive testimony; and
2. Adopt attached Resolution No. 24-08 (Attachment “A”) of the City Council of the City of Cudahy, California, upholding the Planning Commission’s decision to uphold the Director’s interpretation of CMC Section 20.80 and subsequent denial of a Zoning Clearance; and
3. Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15270 (projects which are disapproved).
SUMMARY
The Applicant, Ms. Margarita Gonzalez, has filed an appeal of the Planning Commission’s decision upholding the Community Development Director’s (“Director”) interpretation of Section 20.80 of the Cudahy Municipal Code (“CMC”) relating to the continuation of legal nonconforming uses, which lead to the denial of a Zoning Clearance to allow a vehicle towing/storage facility at 7822 Salt Lake Avenue (“Site”), in the Low Density Residential (“LDR”) zone.

BACKGROUND
Site History
On September 27, 1991, the Site was annexed to Cudahy from the City of Huntington Park. The Site has a lot area of 7,325 square-feet and is presently developed with an approximately 4,000 square-foot warehouse building. The vicinity of the Site is developed with a residential tract to the north, nonconforming industrial properties (zoned LDR) to the east and west, and a Union Pacific railroad track to the south. An aerial image of the Site is shown below.
Image 1: Site Aerial
In 2018, the City completed a comprehensive general plan and zoning update which resulted in a change to the Site’s General Plan Land Use designation from Industrial/Commercial to LDR and the zoning from Industrial/Commercial to LDR. This made all legally existing commercial/industrial uses at the Site nonconforming and subject to the standards of CMC Chapter 20.80 (Nonconforming Buildings, Structures, and Uses).
The two most recent permitted uses at the Site are as follows:
• In 2009, the City issued business license No. 07615 for Tepico, an office use (Attachment “B”). This license remains active.
• On July 22, 2021, the City issued business license No. 07779 for Cali Catering Customs, a food truck manufacturing facility (Attachment “C”). This license expired on July 1, 2023, however, in a letter from the Applicant, the City was informed this business vacated the Site on April 30, 2023 (Attachment “D”).
On June 20, 2023, the Planning Division received a request for a Zoning Clearance (Attachment
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2024 Page 3 of 6
“E”) from Mr. Albert Siordia to allow a vehicle towing/storage facility at the Site. After review, on July 2, 2023, Planning staff informed Mr. Siordia that the requested Zoning Clearance to allow the proposed change of use at the Site from one nonconforming (food truck manufacturing) to another nonconforming (vehicle tow/storage) business was denied.
On October 25, 2023, the Applicant submitted a request for the City to reconsider its decision denying the sought after Zoning Clearance.
On December 19, 2023, after multiple phone call discussions between City staff and the Applicant, the City issued a response to the Applicant stating the reasons why the sought after Zoning Clearance cannot be approved. This letter also informed Applicant of her right to appeal the Director’s decision to the Planning Commission.
On January 10, 2024, Applicant filed an application appealing the Director’s decision to the Planning Commission. The Applicant’s grounds for appeal are as follows:
1. Six-month grace period. The Applicant is “within the 6-month condition set forth in the Cudahy City Code, section 20.30.020(B.2) which allows for termination after 6 months of discontinuance as a non-conforming use.” A check was provided to demonstrate that Cali Catering Customs was occupying the Site until April 30, 2023.
2. Municipal jurisdiction. Miscommunication between the cities of Huntington Park and Cudahy over jurisdiction of the Site lead to a delay in filing a Conditional Use Permit (“CUP”) for the proposed use.
3. CMC Compliance. The proposed would be in compliance with all applicable City codes.
4. Compatibility. The existing commercial/industrial land uses adjacent to the Site are incompatible with the LDR zoning designation.
5. Takings. If the proposed vehicle tow/storage facility is not approved through an extension to allow the nonconforming use, then that would constitute a taking.
On February 26, 2024, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on the Applicant’s appeal, pursuant to the procedures outlined in CMC Chapter 20.84, and heard public testimony. After hearing public testimony, the Planning Commission voted 4-0 in favor of upholding the Director’s decision to deny the Applicant’s Zoning Clearance for the reasons mentioned above. The Planning Commission resolution memorializing this action is included in this report as Attachment “F”.
On March 11, 2024, Applicant filed an application appealing the Planning Commission’s decision to the City Council (Attachment “G”). The Applicant’s appeal does not introduce new grounds for appeal, but rather asks for the City Council to consider allowing a “mutually suitable tenant” at the Site.

ANALYSIS
Pursuant to CMC Section 20.88.150 (Definitions), a nonconforming use means any use of land or property that was lawfully established and in effect at the time the existing zoning code became effective, but no longer complies with all of the applicable regulations and standards of the zone in which the use is located. The Site has a zoning designation of LDR whereby the last two permitted uses (office and food truck manufacturing) at the Site are now prohibited.
However, these uses are/were operating under valid business licenses and therefore they are/were nonconforming.
Nonconforming uses may be continuously maintained only if there are no modifications or additions to the site or business operations. Further, CMC Section 20.80.020 (Termination of Legal Nonconforming Uses), states that changing an existing legal nonconforming use to another nonconforming use shall result in the immediate termination of the right to operate a legal nonconforming use.
On September 25, 2023, due to complaints received from the nearby residences, City staff conducted an inspection at the Site. During this inspection staff observed the Site was being used by an unpermitted vehicle tow/storage operator, and a notice of violation was issued (Attachment “H”). The result of the change from an existing legal nonconforming use to another (unpermitted) nonconforming use terminates the right of continued use of the Site by a legal nonconforming use.
Below is City staff’s analysis and response to the Applicant’s grounds for the original appeal to the Planning Commission.
• Applicant’s Ground for Appeal: Six-Month Grace Period.
The case made in the Applicant’s letter stating that CMC Section 20.30.020(B.2) grants a six-month grace period from the time the Site is occupied by one nonconforming use to another is not accurate or applicable under these facts. Specifically, this code section defines a sunset for when a legal nonconforming use may vacate a site and when a similar type of use may reoccupy the site. The Site was formerly occupied by a food truck manufacturing facility – a different land use classification from the proposed vehicle tow/storage facility. Therefore, the safe harbor provided under CMC Section
20.30.020(B.2) does not apply in this case.
• Applicant’s Ground for Appeal: Municipal Jurisdiction.
On September 27, 1991, the Site was annexed from the City of Huntington Park to Cudahy. Since then, the City of Cudahy has issued permits for the Site, including those referenced as attachments “B” and “C” to this report – which were issued in 2009 and 2021. The issuance of these permits requires the completion of Cudahy forms and payment of Cudahy fees. The City of Cudahy has no record of any inquiries or questions regarding the jurisdictional authority over the Site. Further, there is no applicability for a CUP to allow a vehicle tow/storage facility at the Site since that use is prohibited in the LDR zone.
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2024 Page 5 of 6
• Applicant’s Ground for Appeal: CMC Compliance.
The Site has a zoning designation of LDR, and the proposed vehicle tow/storage facility is a prohibited use in that zone. Vehicle tow/storage facilities are only allowed, through a CUP, in the City’s Innovative Industrial (Industrial) zone. Pursuant to CMC Section
20.84.310 (CUP Applicability), applications for a CUP may be submitted only for those uses specified as allowable conditional uses in the applicable zone district. A CUP may not substitute for an amendment to the zoning code text or map. Therefore, the Applicant’s proposal does not comply with all applicable City codes primarily because it a prohibited use in the LDR zone.
• Applicant’s Grounds for Appeal: Compatibility.
In 2018, the City completed a comprehensive general plan and zoning update which resulted in a change to the Site’s land use and zoning designation from Industrial/Commercial to LDR. Several opportunities for public input were provided in considering this change, including noticed public hearings at Planning Commission and City Council. Ultimately, City’s vision for the Site and vicinity was to transform the area into residential and similarly compatible uses, and to phase out the legal nonconforming commercial/industrial uses. The change in land use and zoning aligns with the properties north of the Site which were already at that time, and are presently, zoned LDR.
Therefore, the denial of the Applicant’s request is compatible with the vision of the City’s residents and City Council.
• Applicant’s Grounds for Appeal: Takings.
Takings is the act of a government agency seizing private property, either physically or regulatorily. A physical takings occurs when private property is taken (through eminent domain) to build roads, parks, schools, etc. A regulatory takings occurs when a government agency passes law(s) so onerous that it deprives property from economic prosperity. In these cases, a government agency shall compensate a property owner for the direct or indirect loss of property rights.
In the Applicant’s case, the City is not pursuing or considering a physical takings of the Site, and therefore a physical takings is not applicable. As it relates to a regulatory takings, the rezoning of the Site to LDR provides the owner the following utilization over the Site – legal nonconforming uses pursuant to CMC Section 20.80 (Nonconforming Structures and Uses), and legal conforming uses pursuant to CMC Section 20.16 (Residential Zones).
Therefore, the Applicant has not been deprived of the ability for economic prosperity over the Site.
CONCLUSION
Pursuant to CMC Section 20.84.020 (Designated Approving Authority), the Director is the final reviewing authority on zoning code interpretations and Zoning Clearances. Accordingly, the Director has decided, for the reasons described above, to deny the Applicant’s request for a Zoning Clearance to allow a vehicle tow/storage facility at the Site.

STAFF REPORT
Date: April 16, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor/Chair and City Council/Agency Members From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager/Executive Director
By: Juan Arauz, AICP, Community Development Director
Subject: Adoption by First Reading of Ordinance No. 741 Amending Cudahy Municipal Code Section 10.04.020 (Vehicle Weight Limits) by adding Patata Street to the list of streets where vehicles exceeding 6,000 pounds are prohibited.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Open the public hearing and receive comments; and
2. Adopt by first reading Ordinance No. 741 (Attachment A), an amendment to the Cudahy Municipal Code (“CMC”) Section 10.04.020 (Vehicle Weight Limits) by adding Patata Street to the list of streets where vehicles exceeding 6,000 pounds are prohibited; and
3. Schedule a second reading of Ordinance No. 741 at the next regularly scheduled City Council meeting on April 16, 2024; and
4. Find the Project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).
BACKGROUND
Location
Patata Street is located at the southern boundary of the City limits between Atlantic Avenue to the west, Wilcox Avenue to the east, and a Union Pacific Railroad right-of-way to the south.
Within the City limits, Patata Street is approximately 1,150 feet long and 35 feet wide, and has two one-way lanes providing east-west vehicular movement. Patata Street is also improved with a four-foot wide pedestrian walkway on the northern boundary of the street. An aerial view of Patata Street is shown in Figure 1, below.

General Plan and Zoning
Properties along Patata Street are comprised of vacant parcels, warehouse buildings containing light industrial and commercial uses, and a commercial cannabis facility. Properties along Patata Street have General Plan Land Use and Zoning designations of Entertainment and Light Industrial. These designations are shown in the image below.
Patata Street Zoning Designation
Under the General Plan Land Use Element and Title 20 of the CMC (“Zoning Code”), the Entertainment designation and corresponding zoning designation is intended to attract pedestrian oriented retail/commercial uses, and prohibits automotive maintenance and trucking related businesses. Specifically, the Entertainment designation is to provide
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2023 Page 3 of 7
opportunities for retail, theaters, restaurants, commercial recreation (bowling alley, skating rinks), gaming, dining, brew pubs and wineries, residential, lodging and similar business activities. City of Cudahy, 2040 General Plan (“General Plan”), p. LUE-28. Prohibited uses include “stand alone residential, automotive maintenance and garages, light industrial, manufacturing, mini-storage, and trucking and transportation-related uses.” General Plan, p.
LUE-28.
Pursuant to the General Plan, industrial designations, inclusive of the Light Industrial designation are intended to support a “range of manufacturing, research and development, start, and clean use opportunities” rather than support heavy manufacturing activities. General Plan, p. LUE-21. The General Plan prohibits “uses that include heavy manufacturing, new warehousing and storage, new trucking and truck lots, and new freight/good storage as a primary use.” General Plan, p. 24.
Street Classification
In the road hierarchy there are generally three major classifications: arterial, collector, and local. Arterial streets are major thoroughfares designed to carry large amounts of traffic, whereas collector streets are designed to carry traffic from local streets onto arterials, and local streets are designed to carry low volumes of traffic at lower speed limits. The Circulation Element of the General Plan classifies Patata Street as a local street.
ANALYSIS
Section 10.04.020(1) of the CMC prohibits vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds from being used, operated, towed, driven across or parked properties to certain listed streets. Most of the streets listed is Section 10.04.020(1) are designated as local streets. City staff is recommending an amendment to Section 10.04.020(1) of the CMC that would prohibit vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street. The reasons for this recommendation are described below.
General Plan
The General Plan Circulation Element classifies Patata Street as a local street. Local streets are found primarily in pedestrian-oriented downtowns and residential districts with narrow roads and lower vehicle speed limits. The intersection of Atlantic Avenue and Patata Street has a General Plan Land Use designation of Entertainment, which is intended for pedestrian-oriented commercial uses and prohibits heavy vehicle and truck related businesses. Prohibited uses in the Entertainment Land Use Designation include automotive maintenance and garages, light industrial, manufacturing, mini-storage and truck and transportation-related uses. Mixed-use developments containing residential units are also permitted in the Entertainment area. The posted speed limit on Patata Street is 35 miles per hour. Therefore, because the intersection of Patata Street and Atlantic Avenue has a Land Use designation of Entertainment, and pedestrian-oriented commercial and mixed-use development is permitted in the
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2023 Page 4 of 7
Entertainment designation. Further east on Patata Street, the properties adjacent to the street carry a Light Industrial Land Use designation, which prohibits heavy manufacturing activities, new warehousing and storage, new trucking and truck lots, and new freight/goods storage as a primary use. The prohibition of vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street would be consistent with the City’s General Plan.
City Zoning Code
Section 20.20.020 (Use Regulations) of the CMC regulates the uses that are permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited within the Entertainment Zone. In the Entertainment Zone, uses permitted by-right include restaurants, art galleries, and residential dwellings (when part of a mixed-use development); whereas bars and breweries are conditionally permitted; and drive-throughs and vehicle storage are prohibited. In the Entertainment Zone, the CMC encourages pedestrian-oriented uses and prohibits businesses that rely on commercial trucks as part of their daily operations. Further, the Light Industrial zoning designation prohibits trucking terminals and other similar uses. Therefore, prohibiting vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street is consistent with the CMC Section 20.20.020.
Proposed Truck Route
Presently, there are no licensed businesses on Patata Street that require daily use of heavy trucks. Existing manufacturing facilities and businesses that are otherwise located in the in the near vicinity would be able to continue to access main thoroughfares, such as Atlantic Avenue, through Wilcox Avenue and Cecelia Street. This “truck route” would adequately serve the uses in the vicinity that rely on commercial trucks as part of their daily operations. Figure 2 below depicts the streets that could be utilized in lieu of Patata Street if the attached ordinance were adopted.
Aerial of Truck Route without Patata Street
Further, pursuant to State law, Section 10.04.030 (Exceptions) of the CMC provides an
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2023 Page 5 of 7
exception to allow vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds to use any street for:
“…purpose of delivering materials to be used in the actual and bona fide conduct of a business located on such street or repair, alteration, remodeling, or construction…” This exception ensure that any business on Patata Street that requires the delivery of goods or mail to be serviced by vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds. However, this exception does not apply to businesses that require use of heavy trucks as part of their daily business operations.
Therefore, prohibiting vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street would leave an alternative truck route that would adequately serve uses in the vicinity.
Los Angeles Metropolitan Authority Regional Plan
The Los Angeles Metropolitan Authority (“LA Metro”) has been preparing for a new light rail transit line, the Southeast Gateway Line (previously, West Santa Ana Branch), that would connect southeast Los Angeles County to Downtown Los Angeles. This line would consist of nine new stations, a 14.5-mile segment connecting Artesia, Cerritos, Bellflower, Paramount, Downey, South Gate, Cudahy, Bell, Huntington Park, Vernon, unincorporated FlorenceFirestone and Downtown LA.
One of the proposed Southeast Gateway Line stations is located on Atlantic Avenue, south of Patata Street in the City of South Gate. The image below shows a plan view of the location of this station, one block from Cudahy city limits.
Proposed Southeast Gateway Line Station in South Gate
In preparation for the proposed light rail line, LA Metro has consulted with various cities, including Cudahy, to help plan future development around the vicinity of the station locations.
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2023 Page 6 of 7
LA Metro’s specific objective is to facilitate private and public improvements that would complement and encourage ridership on the new light rail line. Public improvements include enhanced pedestrian sidewalks, crossings, street furniture and landscaping. Private improvements include Transient Oriented Developments (e.g., mixed-use residential developments) and pedestrian-oriented retail/commercial uses. Therefore, the proposed ordinance would be harmonious with LA Metro’s regional plan for a future light rail station.
Peer Review
To support staff’s assessment and recommendation to prohibit vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street, Fehr and Peers was retained to provide an independent review and technical memorandum (Attachment “B”). Specifically, Fehr & Peers evaluated the related chapters of the CMC, city ordinances and adopted plans. The technical memorandum states that the City may amend the CMC to restrict heavy vehicles on Patata Street, there are no conflicts with the CMC, the General Plan, and access to commercial properties is not unduly restricted for conducting local business.
In its memorandum, Fehr and Peers concludes that the City may proceed with modifying the CMC to prohibit vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street. Fehr and Peers also recommends that, in doing so, complementary actions such as signage communicating turn and access restrictions for heavy vehicles, should be added along Atlantic Avenue, Patata Street and Wilcox Avenue.
CONCLUSION
Staff’s recommendation to prohibit vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds on Patata Street would be consistent with the City’s General Plan and the CMC. Further, existing businesses in the vicinity would not be adversely affected since no business on Patata Street relies on heavy truck for its daily operations, and an alternative truck route is provided along Cecelia Street and Wilcox Avenue.
CEQA
The action(s) have been assessed in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) (Pub. Res. Code § 21000 et seq.), CEQA Guidelines (Cal, Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15000 et seq.) and the environmental regulations of the City. The Project is categorically exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). This exemption applies to where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.

To: Juan Rodriguez, Aaron Hernandez-Torres, and Juan Arauz, City of Cudahy From: Miguel Núñez & Steven J Brown, PE
Subject: Review of City Documents for Patata Street Redesignation LB23-0092
This memo summarizes the City of Cudahy resources that were consulted and considered for the potential modification of the Patata Street vehicle weight limit in the City of Cudahy Municipal Code. Fehr & Peers conducted a review of the Municipal Code, city ordinances, and adopted City plans for the purposes of documenting considerations relevant to street redesignation on local roadways. The intent was to flag the benefit/need for the City to update the municipal code and/or local street designations. The potential trigger is based on considerations for changes in weight limits, street classification, land use, and site access.
City Document Review
This process was initiated by reviewing relevant Municipal Code, General Plan, and adopted plan text. The review focused on ordinances, Title 8 of the Municipal Code, and the Circulation Element of General Plan. Other sections, with less direct relevance were also reviewed including Titles 5 and 10 of the Municipal Code, other elements of the General Plan, and other definitions in the Municipal Code, such as a trucking terminal.
Title 8 of the Municipal Code includes the following sections:
Section 8.16.020 Definitions:
o (12) “Commercial vehicle” shall mean any vehicle of a type required to be registered under the State of California Vehicle Code used or maintained for the transportation of persons for hire, compensation or profit, or designed, used, or maintained primarily for the transportation of property or for other commercial purposes. Passenger vehicles that are not used for the transportation of persons for hire, compensation, or profit, house cars (motor homes), and vanpool vehicles are not commercial vehicles.
Attachment B
City of Cudahy
March 20, 2024
Section 8.16.030 Prohibited Public Nuisance Conditions o 1(bb) Commercial vehicles or equipment placed, parked, or stored on any private real property that is located within a residential zone of the city or any other private real property used for residential purposes, except when the commercial vehicle is parked in connection with, and in the aid of, the performance of a service to or on the private real property where it is parked until such service is completed.
o 1(cc) Vehicles, construction equipment, or other machinery exceeding the permissible gross vehicle weight for the streets or public property upon which they are located. A nuisance also exists under this provision when a vehicle, construction equipment, or other machinery is stopped, kept, placed, parked, or stored on private real property and when such vehicle, equipment, or machinery exceeds the permissible gross vehicle weight for the streets or public property that were utilized in its placement on said private real property, unless pursuant to a valid permit issued by the city.
o (dd) Any equipment, machinery, or vehicle of any type or description that is designed, used, or maintained for construction-type activities that is kept, parked, placed, or stored on public or private real property, except when such item is being used during excavation, construction, or demolition operations at the site where said equipment, machinery, or vehicle is located pursuant to an active permit issued by the city.
Title 10 of the Municipal Code includes the following sections:
Section 10.04.020 Vehicle Weight Limits:
o (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of CMC 10.04.010, no vehicle exceeding 6,000 pounds in gross unladen weight, except a vehicle which is subject to the provisions of Section 1031 through 1036 of the California Public Utilities Code, may be used, operated, towed, driven on or across, or parked on property on or adjacent to the following streets:
(a) Live Oak, Elizabeth, Clara and Santa Ana Streets from the east city limits to the west city limits;
(b) Otis Street from the north city limits to the south city limits; (c) Cecelia Street from Wilcox Avenue to Ferndale Avenue; (d) The entire length of Ferndale Avenue;
(e) Cecelia Street and Fostoria Street from Ferndale Avenue to the east city limits;
(f) Wilcox Avenue from the north city limits to Cecelia Street; (g) Walnut Street from Otis Avenue to the west city limits; (h) Flower Street from Otis Avenue to the west city limits;
City of Cudahy
March 20, 2024
(i) Hartle Street from Atlantic Avenue to Otis Avenue; and (j) Bear Avenue from the north city limits to Flower Street. Section 10.04.030 Vehicle Weight Limits – Exceptions:
o Notwithstanding the provisions of CMC 10.04.010 and 10.04.020, the provisions of CMC 10.04.020 shall not be applicable to the use of the streets therein listed by a vehicle when it is necessary for a vehicle to travel over such streets for the purpose of delivering materials to be used in the actual and bona fide conduct of a business located on such street or repair, alteration, remodeling, or construction of any building or structure located upon such streets and for which a building permit has previously been obtained and is in full force and effect. The provisions of CMC 10.04.020 shall not be effective until appropriate signs have been erected. (Ord. 481 § 1. 2002 Code § 8-3).
Section 20.88.210 T Definitions:
o “Trucking terminal” means a business engaged in the storage and distribution of goods and having an enclosed truck docking and warehousing facility that can accommodate the simultaneous loading or unloading of at least six heavy trucks (having a rating of more than 10,000 pounds and/or an unladen weight of more than 6,000 pounds), but excluding trucking accessory to another industrial use on the site. (Ord. 720 § 10 (Att. 3), 2022; Ord. 690 § 4 (Exh. A), 2018).
The Circulation Element of the City of Cudahy General Plan includes the following on page CE-3:
Roadway System:
o The Long Beach Freeway (I-710) runs just east of Cudahy. Florence Avenue provides direct access to I-710. This freeway is an important regional freight corridor, and the associated truck volumes impact traffic and air quality in Cudahy. The ability to widen streets to accommodate additional auto volumes is extraordinarily limited. Most streets are classified and built as two-lane streets with on-street parking. Additional vehicle capacity would require the removal of parking and/or the acquisition of property.
Atlantic Avenue is the only major highway (arterial) in Cudahy (Exhibit CE-1)
Otis Avenue, Salt Lake Avenue, Wilcox Avenue, Clara Street, and Santa Ana Street are classified as collector streets.
Patata Street, Live Oak Street, and Cecelia Street, while they carry high volumes of cross-town traffic, are classified as local streets.
The Land Use Element of the City of Cudahy General Plan identifies land use and zoning designations throughout the City. Patata Street frontages include parcels in the entertainment district subdistrict and light industrial subdistrict. Figure 1 shows the City of Cudahy’s Planning Districts and underlying land use zoning designations.
City of Cudahy
March 20, 2024
Other relevant City of Cudahy documents that were reviewed are listed below. While they do not impact the street designation, they should be consulted if future physical improvements are considered for this roadway:
Cudahy Green Streets Manual - The City's Green Streets Manual applies to new streets and/or street modification or improvement projects. The purpose of this manual is to provide recommendations and design standards to include green elements such as permeable paving and/or infiltration systems into new and/or existing streets. Cudahy Low Impact Development (LID) Guidelines - Generally, LID guidelines provide a source of control for runoff, limit its transport and pollutant conveyance to the collection system for new and/or street rehabilitation projects.
Cudahy Traffic Engineering Survey - This engineering survey provides the basis for the establishment, revision, and enforcement of speed limits for selected city streets (speed limits for 25 streets segments).

Key Findings
The following are key findings based on the guiding City of Cudahy document sections cited above:
Vehicles and commercial vehicles are subject to limits of the permissible gross vehicle weight for streets in Cudahy
Per Section 10.04.020, notwithstanding the provisions of CMC 10.04.010, no vehicle exceeding 6,000 pounds in gross unladen weight may be used, operated, towed, driven on or across, or parked on property on or adjacent to the following streets:
o (a) Live Oak, Elizabeth, Clara and Santa Ana Streets from the east city limits to the west city limits;
o (b) Otis Street from the north city limits to the south city limits; o (c) Cecelia Street from Wilcox Avenue to Ferndale Avenue; o (d) The entire length of Ferndale Avenue;
o (e) Cecelia Street and Fostoria Street from Ferndale Avenue to the east city limits; o (f) Wilcox Avenue from the north city limits to Cecelia Street1; o (g) Walnut Street from Otis Avenue to the west city limits; o (h) Flower Street from Otis Avenue to the west city limits; o (i) Hartle Street from Atlantic Avenue to Otis Avenue; and o (j) Bear Avenue from the north city limits to Flower Street. Section 10.04.030 offers exceptions to the above when it is necessary for a vehicle to travel over such streets for the purposes of delivering materials to be used in the actual and bona fide conduct of business located on such street or repair, alteration, remodeling, or construction of any building or structure located upon such streets and for which a building permit has previously been obtained and is in full force and effect. Patata Street is classified as a local street by the Circulation Element in the General Plan.
The language above reflects the City’s regulations restricting the flow of heavy and/or commercial vehicles in residential zones and designated street segments, except where necessary to conduct permitted business activities. The City may amend segments listed in the Municipal Code restricting heavy vehicles to include Patata Street, provided it is consistent with other Municipal Code Sections and the General Plan, and access to commercial properties is not unduly restricted for conducting local business.
1 Emphasis added for Cecilia Street and Wilcox Avenue to show that restricted vehicle weights on nearby segments would preserve access to businesses located on Wilcox Avenue south of Cecilia Street and Cecilia Street between Wilcox Avenue and Atlantic Avenue.
City of Cudahy
March 20, 2024
Local Land Use and Future Area Vision
Access to Patata Street is provided via Atlantic Avenue or Wilcox Avenue. Properties on Atlantic Avenue and along Patata Street (for roughly 440 feet to the east of Atlantic Avenue) are zoned for entertainment uses and are currently vacant. The remaining approximately 720 feet of street frontage along Patata Street, from the entertainment uses to Wilcox Avenue, are designated as light industrial, and there are four active driveways serving existing businesses. City staff have reviewed the approved business licenses and operations and discussed the need for heavy trucks with local businesses at the sites accessed via Patata Street. Based on the permitted businesses and operations at these addresses, the use of vehicles exceeding 6,000 pounds in gross unladen weight is not required by the businesses being accessed via Patata Street and inconsistent with the future vision for the entertainment district land uses along Atlantic Avenue and Patata Street.
There are light industrial uses in the area that are serviced by heavy vehicles and their access points are accessible from Cecilia Street and Wilcox Avenue. Figure 2 shows the street network and local and uses that can be accessed without heavy vehicles traveling on Patata Street.
The zoning designations along Wilcox Avenue are residential for most of the street within Cudahy.
The designation is light industrial from Patata Street to the north ending roughly midway between Cecilia Street and Santa Ana Street. There are businesses operating along Cecilia Street and Wilcox Street, where heavy truck traffic is permitted and required for local business operations. Businesses located along these roadways can be accessed without traveling on Patata Street.
FIGURE 2 – PATATA STREET AND SURROUNDING ROADWAYS
City of Cudahy
March 20, 2024
Local Access and Circulation
As discussed in the prior sections, the City of Cudahy of Municipal Code informs which vehicles are allowed to travel on which streets based on weight or in pursuance to permitted local business activity. Accessing local business operations is a function of the roadway network and location of permitted land uses and their access points.
Currently, staff input has indicated that there is no business taking access from Patata Street that requires heavy vehicles in excess of 6,000 pounds. There are businesses located along Wilcox Avenue and Cecilia Street that do require heavy vehicles for permitted business operations and access to those existing and future business operations will be preserved via Cecilia Street and Wilcox Avenue.
Limitations Based on the Municipal Code and State Law
Per the City of Cudahy Municipal Code Sections cited above, the City can, and does, restrict commercial and heavy vehicles in residential areas and/or when not conducting permitted business operations. The City may not restrict truck traffic where it is necessary to conduct legitimate business activity.
Conclusion and Next Steps
The City’s regulations, in conjunction with considerations such as land use, business operations, and roadway network, all inform where it is deemed necessary or appropriate to allow heavy vehicles in order to minimize negative effects on the local community and support the realization of the entertainment district along Atlantic Avenue and Patata Street. Because existing businesses that require heavy trucks are accessible via Cecilia Street and Wilcox Avenue, where heavy truck circulation is allowed, a weight restriction on Patata Street is not anticipated to negatively impact local businesses and will help further limit the negative effects of heavy trucks on Patata Street.
Furthermore, the Municipal Code provides exceptions for heavy trucks that are required for permitted businesses along Patata Street. Accordingly, the City may consider adding Patata Street to the list of roadways restricting heavy truck traffic in Municipal Code Section 10.04.020. If the City proceeds with the modification of the weight restriction, complementary actions such as signage communicating turn and access restrictions for heavy vehicles, should be added along Atlantic Avenue and Patata Street. Signage could also be added to portions of Cecilia Street and Wilcox Avenue, where permitted, conveying that these are the designated routes for heavy trucks to access local businesses.

Southeast Gateway Line CCC Agenda of February 14, 2024
DATE: February 9, 2024
TO: Southeast Gateway Line Corridor Cities Committee
FROM: Hector De La Torre, Executive Director
BY: Marisa Perez, Executive Deputy to Metro Board Director Fernando Dutra SUBJECT: Southeast Gateway Line (formerly known as the West Santa Ana Branch) Corridor Cities Committee Plan and Next Steps
Background
On October 3, 2023, the Gateway Cities COG (GCCOG) Board of Directors approved the formation of the Southeast Gateway Line Corridor Cities Committee. In addition, the COG Board:
• Approved transfer of $130,000 of budgetary allocation by Metro from the ERT JPA to the Gateway Cities COG for the former West Santa Ana Branch (WSAB) renaming project.
• Authorized the Executive Director to continue negotiations with Caltrans and Metro regarding the Caltrans Grant for the Community Corridor Transportation Platform. • Authorized the Executive Director and GCCOG staff to manage grants and membership dues budget as it relates to the WSAB Corridor Cities Committee activities.
In addition, the GCCOG Board approved the staffing and funding plan in two phases as follows:
PHASE 1: January 1, 2024 - June 30, 2024
Southeast Gateway Line Corridor Cities Committee Expenses will be Supported by the GCCOG
Consistent with the GCCOG’s Joint Powers Authority Agreement and Bylaws, the GCCOG Board created the Southeast Gateway Line Corridor Cities Committee.
The GCCOG Board appointed members to this committee, in consultation with the GCCOG member from the respective city/jurisdiction. Committee members can be representatives to the Board and non-representatives to the Board. Members have been appointed for one-year terms (conclude October 2024).
Meetings: GCCOG will staff two meetings from 6-7:30 pm, according to the Ralph M. Brown Act; one in January 2024 (delayed to February 2024) and April 2024.
There will be no meeting stipends for members. This will help minimize costs and staffing.
Southeast Gateway Line CCC Agenda of February 14, 2024
Expenses: Approximately $23,000 in expenses for GCCOG Executive Director, professional and administrative staff support, supplies, and counsel (if needed) will be used to support this committee.
PHASE 2: July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2025
Meetings: GCCOG will staff bi-monthly meetings from 6-7:30 pm in-person, according to the Ralph M. Brown Act.
Membership Fees: Each committee member will be required to pay an annual membership fee between $10,000 to $17,000 each year, starting July 1, 2024.
See below for greater discussion. All members will pay the same fee. This proposal assumes 100% participation and future membership fees will be collected from the former ERT JPA members: Artesia, Cerritos, Paramount, South Gate, Cudahy, Bell, Bell Gardens, Maywood, Huntington Park, and LA County (Supervisor Janice Hahn’s Office). Fees will not be collected from any other GCCOG member to support this committee, unless the GCCOG member requests participation.
Expenses: Each member’s fees will cover the following GCCOG expenses:
• Executive Director, professional and administrative staff support for all meetings and advocacy trips.
• $100 meeting stipends: capped at $700 per committee member per year. • Member travel expenses: Event support and travel expenses for one (1) advocacy trip to Sacramento and one (1) advocacy trip to Washington DC.
Each member will be reimbursed up to $2,600 for travel expenses each fiscal year. Expenses above this amount will be covered by the member’s cities/jurisdictions. Tentative plans are to send a delegation to Sacramento before/after the Governor’s May revise and to Washington DC in September 2024, in support of the FTA’s expected Record of Decision (ROD). • Local match required for Caltrans grant: The Eco Rapid Transit (ERT) JPA received a Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant award for the Community Corridor Transportation Platform ($504,000). Since October 2023, GCCOG staff has been working with Caltrans to modify the grant and transfer the funds to the GCCOG.
The grant required a local match (cash) of $65,928. ERT had not identified the local match within their current budget for the remainder of 2023. GCCOG staff have been working to secure a local match from Metro or elsewhere. If funding
Southeast Gateway Line CCC Agenda of February 14, 2024
for the local match is not secured, the GCCOG will need to include the local match as a one-time expense covered by the 2024-25 committee membership fees. This is why the proposed membership fee has a range of $10,000 - $17,000.
• Accounting: GCCOG professional, contract and support staff will process all invoices, payments, reimbursements and meeting stipends. • General Counsel: There will be no counsel at Southeast Gateway Line Corridor Cities Committee meetings and the GCCOG Executive Director can request legal advice from current GCCOG counsel as needed, up to $2,400/year.
The following describes the membership and other details of the Southeast Gateway Line Corridor Cities Committee.

To: Honorable Mayor/Chair and City Council/Agency Members From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager/Executive Director
By: Richard Iglesias, City Clerk
Subject: Discussion of Potential Ballot Measure for November 5, 2024 ElectionIncreasing Term Limits for Council Members
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council is recommended to discuss and, if necessary, provide direction for staff to prepare language for a proposed ballot measure for the November 5, 2024 election, that would increase term limits for all Council Members.
BACKGROUND
1. On November 4, 2014, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 14-72, calling for a General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, March 3, 2015, and adding Measure A that would set term limits for all City Council Members.
2. On March 3, 2015, out of 6880 Cudahy registered voters, 986 votes were cast, 672 voted yes, and 133 voted no on Measure A, enacting term limits.
3. On March 13, 2015, the County of Los Angeles Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s Office provided the City Clerk’s Office with the Official Canvass Certificate and the Official Statement of Votes Cast for the General and Special Municipal Election held on March 3, 2015.
4. On April 7, 2015, the City Council Certified the March 3, 2015, election results, and adopted Ordinance No. 642, adding Section 2.04.100 (Term Limits) to Chapter 2.04 (City Council) of the Cudahy Municipal Code to read as follows:
Section 2.04.100 TERM LIMITS
Pursuant to the authority granted to the city under Government Code section 36502, Item Number
14B
“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
04/16/2024 Page 2 of 2
no person shall serve more than eight (8) years, or two (2) four-year terms as a member of the Cudahy City Council, with any portion of a term, whether by election or appointment, counting as a full term.
ANALYSIS
Ordinance No. 642 established term limits that prohibits Cudahy Council Members from sitting on the City Council for more than two (2) four-year terms. This includes being elected or appointed for any part of a term, which counts as a full term. Term limits applied to all City Council Members in office starting in the 2017 General Municipal Election.
During the City Council Meeting of April 3, 2024, the City Council requested an item for the City Council to discuss whether they want to add a ballot measure on the November 2024 election amending Cudahy Municipal Code (“CMC”) Section 2.04.100.
Staff recommends that the City Council discuss whether they want to include a ballot measure amending CMC Section 2.04.100 on the November 2024 election, if so, provide direction on the proposed language for the amendment.
CONCLUSION
The City Council is recommended to discuss and, if necessary, provide direction for staff to prepare language for a proposed ballot measure for the November 5, 2024 election, that would increase term limits for all Council Members.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Placing a ballot measure for the November 5, 2024 election will cost the City approximately $9542.84.
