time limits for the completion of such cure, correction or remedy are specifically set forth in this Agreement, then within said time limits), such party shall not be deemed to be in default under this Agreement and no default shall be deemed to have occumed. The injured party shall give written notice of default to the party in default, specifring the default complained of by the non-defaulting party. Delay in giving such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any default nor shall it change the time of default.

Delays by any party in asserting any of its right and/or remedies shall not deprive that party of its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings that it may deem necessary to protect, assert or enforce any such rights or remedies.
14,2 Except as provided in Paragraph 14.3, if the transaction herein provided shall not close by reason of Seller's default, then Buyer may require any deposit placed with Escrow Holder by Buyer be returned to Buyer, and pursue any other remedy at law or in equity, including specific performance.

If Buyer choses to terminate the Agreement and cancel the Escrow, the Buyer's recovery of damages against Seller shall be limited to recovering any amounts actually expended by the Buyer in reasonable reliance on this Agreement not to exceed the amount of TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($250,000.00). The Buyer acknowledges the protections of Civil Code Section 1542 relative to the waivers and releases contained in this Paragraph 17(c) which Civil Code Section reads as follows:
"A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party."
By initialing below Buyer waives the provisions of Section1542 in connection with the waivers and releases in this Paragraph 14.3.

Staff Report

STAFF REPORT
Date: June 4, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager
Prepared By: Lorena Cardenas, Housing Specialist II
Concurrence: Juan Arauz, Community Development Director; Cecilia MadrigalGonzalez, Senior Planner Subject: Request to Consider the Approval of a Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Cudahy and Local Coordinating Alliance 1 (LCA1) for Shelter Beds Within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council take the following action(s):

1. Approve the Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Cudahy and LCA1 for the Bell Salvation Army Bell Shelter Beds not to exceed amount of $31,086.00 (Attachments A and B).

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract and all other necessary documentation.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The Salvation Army Bell Shelter (“Shelter”) is located within the city limits of the City of Bell and receives unhoused residents from the regional Continuum of Care (“CoC") system. The Shelter provides 40 of the region’s shelter beds.

The LCA1 cities and unincorporated areas (Bell, Bell Gardens, Commerce, Cudahy, East Los Angeles, Huntington Park, Maywood, South Gate Vernon, and Walnut Park) surrounding the Shelter face a disproportionate homelessness impact. Unhoused individuals that are transported to the Shelter from the greater Los Angeles County Region may not successfully transfer to permanent housing for a variety of reason including but not limited to mental health or drug and alcohol treatment services provided at the Shelter, or may refusing to conform to Item Number
14C

the rules necessary for a safe and orderly living environment for residents of the Shelter. As a result these individuals increase the unhoused population in the LCA1 cities, unincorporated communities, and in the affected Southeast Los Angeles (“SELA”) area LCA1 communities, Los Angeles County Supervisorial Districts 1 and 4, the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (“Gateway COG”), and existing regional agencies and nonprofit service providers are necessary to address the complex issue of homelessness in a manner that improves quality of life in the SELA subregion and improves the efficiency and effectiveness of existing regional services for the unhoused.

Cudahy has participated in the Reimbursement Agreement since June 22, 2022 (Attachments C and D), and contributed a total of $61,476 within the last two years to cover its share of the Shelter Bed Pilot Program.

STRATEGIC PLAN IMPACT
This eligible activity should support the following strategies of the City Council’s Implementation Action Plan within Goal B (Social Services):
• Strategy 1: Partner with appropriate agencies to ensure Cudahy residents receive social services.
• Strategy 3: Pursue grant opportunities as available to help residents with cash assistance or other needs.
• Strategy 4: Promote mental health wellbeing in the community through local partnerships.
• Strategy 5: Identify resources in the region and partner with other jurisdictions to support a regional approach to the delivery of social services.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
LCA1 cities, agreed to share an equal one-eighth (1/8th) cost of the program. Further, the City of Bell, applies for and receives Measure H Innovation Fund (“Measure H Grant”) from the Gateway COG, to assist in covering the complete program cost which lowers the cost that each LCA1 member city must pay. For the years 2022 and 2023 the Measure H Grant was in the amount of $500,000.00 and for the year 2024 it will be in the amount of $520,000.00. If approved, the City would contribute $31,086.00 of Permanent Local Housing Allocation (“PLHA”) Year 3 funds to cover its share of the costs for the Salvation Army Bell Shelter Beds.

As such, there would be no fiscal impact to the CY 2024 General Fund.

CONCLUSION
City staff recommends that the City Council approve the Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Cudahy and LCA1 for the Bell Salvation Army Bell Shelter Beds for a not to exceed amount of $31,086.00 and authorize City Manager to execute the contract. Further, entering into the Agreement would support several goals of the City Council’s implementation action plan.

REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
FOR

SHELTER BEDS WITHIN THE SALVATION ARMY BELL SHELTER
THIS REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is entered into as of July __, 2024 (“Effective Date”) by and among the CITY OF BELL, a California charter city (“Bell”), the CITY OF BELL GARDENS, a California general law city (“Bell Gardens”),the CITY OF COMMERCE, a California general law city (“Commerce”), the CITY OF CUDAHY, a California general law city (“Cudahy”), the CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK, a California general law city (“Huntington Park”), the CITY OF MAYWOOD, a California general law city (“Maywood”), the CITY OF SOUTH GATE, a California general law city (“South Gate”), and the CITY OF VERNON, a California charter city and municipal corporation (“Vernon”), collectively referred to herein as the “LCA1 Members” and/or the “Parties”.

RECITALS
A. The cities of Bell, Bell Gardens, Commerce, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Maywood, South Gate, and Vernon are members of a Local Coordinating Alliance 1 (“LCA1”), a cooperative working group of eight (8) entities developed within the Gateway Cities Council of Governments for subregional homeless services coordination in the Southeast Los Angeles subregion of Service Planning Area 7 (“SPA 7”). The LCA1 Members have agreed to coordinate resources and services to address homelessness in the Southeastern Los Angeles region within a provisional pilot program as described / outlined pursuant to the terms in this Agreement.

B. Los Angeles County (First Supervisorial District) (“County”) will separately participate with The Salvation Army for the same services as set forth herein pursuant to a separate agreement directly with the Salvation Army Bell Shelter.

C. A “Shelter Bed” is defined as an occupancy placement within a crisis housing bed or a bridge housing bed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter located at 5600 Rickenbacker Rd, Bell, CA 90201, for a single adult (age 18 or over) participant referred into a program of comprehensive homeless support services within such shelter. Depending on the service needs of the particular unhoused individual, initial placement may occur in a crisis housing bed that is operated with a low barrier design or in a bridge housing bed. Both crisis and bridge housing beds are intended to provide a safe and supportive twenty-four (24) hour residence to individuals experiencing homelessness while enabling assistance for them to obtain permanent housing. A low barrier design program is one in which no participant that is placed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter shall be required to commit to sobriety, or to commit to an adherence to medications for physical or mental health conditions. Low barrier crisis housing beds are expected to be provided at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter in Building 1E. Bridge housing beds are expected to be provided at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter sober living dormitories in Building 2A/B for participants who prefer to live in a more stable environment. The

01135.0001/536707.2 -2-
number of beds provided in each housing type will be flexible to accommodate the shifting needs of the participants at any time.

D. It is expected that a number of participants entering the pilot program will have significant barriers to employment and housing. The Parties expect that there will be an on-site Salvation Army Bell Shelter employee who will provide group and individual psychotherapy for participants who need an advanced level of support and are open to engaging in behavioral health services.

E. Client level data for this pilot program will be entered into the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority’s (“LAHSA”) Homeless Management Information System (“HMIS”). HMIS collects participant demographic data, as well as program and service utilization data for auditing, reporting, and to facilitate participant transfer and coordination among available regional homeless services programs.

F. The LCA1 Members currently participate in the Los Angeles County Coordinated Entry System (“County CES”), which provides for placements of individuals experiencing homelessness within occupiable shelter beds in Los Angeles County.

Due to the high demand for shelter beds within Los Angeles County, a shelter bed may not be immediately available to address the needs of the local unhoused population in the Southeast Los Angeles County subregion. Thus, the City of Bell has negotiated an agreement with The Salvation Army to procure the prioritized use of thirty-six (36) shelter beds for the eight (8) participating LCA1 Members, in recognition of the local impacts of homelessness experienced by the LCA1 Members.

G. The LCA1 Members, have collectively designated the City of Bell as the lead agency to coordinate the implementation of the pilot program proposed by this Agreement for the placement of homeless individuals within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter in an effort to address the unhoused population that the LCA1 Members seek to assist.

H. This pilot program will require a great deal of cooperation among the LCA1 Members in order to enable the efficient placement of homeless individuals currently to a Shelter Bed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter.

I. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter, one of the largest shelters in the nation, is located within the City of Bell in the Southeast Los Angeles County subregion and accepts placements from throughout the Los Angeles County area through the County CES.

The Shelter Beds are contracted by various governmental and nonprofit entities, and the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, in recognition of the homeless housing impacts experienced by the LCA1 Members, has agreed to contract with the City of Bell for thirty-six (36) prioritized Shelter Beds to be allocated to the LCA1 Members’ homeless population, based on certain conditions.

01135.0001/536707.2 -3-
J. The City of Bell will take the lead on behalf of the LCA1 Members plus the County to coordinate the prioritized use of forty (40) Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Shelter through a Homeless Liaison (as such term is defined below), which shall be a designated staff member selected by the City of Bell to implement the pilot program under this Agreement that is separately funded by a Measure H Innovation Fund Grant reimbursement through the Gateway Cities Council of Governments.

K. To this end, the City of Bell and The Salvation Army, a California corporation (“Salvation Army”) have entered into an agreement, dated July _1_, 2024, as set forth in Exhibit A (the “Salvation Army Agreement”), whereby the City of Bell, has acquired the prioritized right for thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, and additional supportive services to serve the LCA1 Members’ homeless housing population.

L. Separately, the City of Bell, as lead agency, applied for and received a $520,000 Measure H Innovation Fund Grant (“Measure H Grant”) from the Gateway Cities Council of Governments, which reduces the total cost of this pilot program to the eight (8) LCA1 Members. With Measure H Grant funds, the total estimated cost of the Salvation Army Agreement to the eight (8) participating LCA1 Members would be reduced from $768,690 to $248,690. In return for the Measure H Grant award, the LCA1 Members agree that if the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds cannot be filled by the LCA1 Members, open placements will be made available to other SPA 7 communities with pre-approval of the designated Homeless Liaison. The total number of SPA 7 placements from outside of the eight (8) LCA1 Members may not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds, which is eighteen (18) out of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds at any one time. Placements will not be available to other SPA 7 communities through this Agreement until Shelter Bed occupancy drops below ninety percent (90%) occupancy, or thirty-three (33) of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds.

M. The City of Bell shall appoint an individual to serve as a liaison to all LCA1 Members and the County (the “Homeless Liaison”), and shall work with the participating LCA1 Members and the County to coordinate the use of the prioritized Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter in addition to any other beds that are made available through the County CES.

N. The Shelter Beds are designed to provide the LCA1 Members with an additional inventory of homeless shelter beds to address the significant impacts of homelessness the LCA1 Members are experiencing. If any individuals choose to leave a placement at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, either of their own volition or for violating the rules and policies of the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, they will add to the unhoused population in the communities of the Southeast Los Angeles subregion. Thus, the pilot program proposed by the LCA1 Members is designed to provide an enhanced level of support, resources, and communication in order to ensure any placement of individuals within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter remain for as long as reasonably possible.

01135.0001/536707.2 -4-
O. The LCA1 Members agree that the costs of this Agreement will be shared equally among all of the LCA1 Members and they shall be required to pay their equal share each quarter during the term of this Agreement. If a LCA1 Member chooses to withdraw from this Agreement, other cities within the SPA 7 area may be added to this Agreement with priority provided to communities closest to the Salvation Army Bell Shelter (which addition may require an amendment or supplement to this Agreement as determined by the City of Bell). The intent of the LCA1 Members is to retain a minimum of eight (8) participating entities, in order to ensure, i) that the cost of this Agreement is not prohibitive for any one member and, ii) that the Shelter Beds remain ninety percent (90%) occupied during the term of this Agreement.

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the preceding recitals and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the Parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals set forth above are hereby acknowledged and agreed to by the Parties and are incorporated in the terms of this Agreement. Specifically, the City of Bell is acknowledged and agreed to as the lead agency, and its appointed Homeless Liaison is acknowledged and agreed to, for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2. Term; Termination.
(a) The term of this Agreement will commence on July 1, 2024 and end on June 30, 2025 (the “Term”) for a total of 365 days.
(b) In addition, this Agreement may be terminated after July 1, 2024, (i) at the convenience of any LCA1 Member following thirty (30) days prior written notice to the City of Bell, and/or (ii) upon a termination of the Salvation Army Agreement by the Salvation Army or the City of Bell pursuant to the terms of the Salvation Army Agreement.

The City of Bell, as lead agency, may replace any party that terminates this Agreement with another city within the SPA7 area that executes an acknowledgement and acceptance of the terms of this Agreement (which, at the City of Bell’s discretion, may require an amendment to this Agreement).
(c) In the event of any termination by a LCA1 Member after July 1, 2024, and a replacement SPA 7 city is not immediately available to take such terminating Party’s share of the costs/payments required herein, then the equitable share of costs for this Agreement (along with the allocation of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds for all LCA1 Members) provided in Section 3 below shall be adjusted accordingly.

Section 3. Cost and Payment. It is agreed and acknowledged that the Parties will share the costs of this pilot program equally, and that, regardless of any ability of the City of Bell, the Homeless Liaison, and / or the Salvation Army Bell Shelter to actually enable the utilization of any Shelter Bed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter for any LCA1 Member’s homeless population, each LCA1 Member shall be required to pay the monthly

01135.0001/536707.2 -5-
amount due under this Agreement on the first day of each month of the Term of this Agreement to the City of Bell in order for the City of Bell to pay any and all monthly invoices received from the Salvation Army without delay. If the invoice received by the City of Bell from the Salvation Army for the use of the Shelter Beds in any given month is less than the amount collectively paid by the LCA1 Members for such month, then the City of Bell shall promptly refund any such overcharge to each of the LCA1 Members on an equal basis.

As the City of Bell, as lead agency, was successful in procuring $520,000 in Measure H Grant funds from the Gateway Cities Council of Governments, the total cost for each of the Parties (as set forth below) is proportionally reduced during the term of the Measure H Grant fund term.

Total Agreement Cost
The total cost of the Salvation Army Agreement is $768,690 calculated at thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds per day at a cost of $58.50 per bed / per day for 365 days.

The City of Bell will invoice the Gateway Cities Council of Governments for $520,000 in Measure H Grant fund reimbursements, which would reduce the total cost of this Agreement to $248,690.

Los Angeles County First Supervisorial District will enter directly into a separate agreement with the Salvation Army Bell Shelter for four (4) additional Shelter Beds, to bring the total number of coordinated Shelter Beds in the Southeast Los Angeles subregion to forty (40) under this pilot program.

The eight (8) LCA1 Members will be invoiced monthly by the City of Bell for an equal one-eighth (1/8th) share. Each of the eight (8) LCA1 Members will be billed a maximum of $31,086.25 of the remaining Agreement after Measure H Innovation Grant reimbursement of $248,690.

Quarterly Invoice
The City of Bell, as lead agency, will submit the quarterly invoice (3 monthly invoices) it receives from the Salvation Army pursuant to the Salvation Army Agreement, to each LCA1 Member upon five (10) business days of its receipt therefor, with, if applicable, backup documentation and related reports for the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds.

Section 4. Specifications. The availability and use of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds allocated to each LCA1 Member shall be subject to the following specifications. In recognition of the complexity of the daily operations of the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, and the unknown personal, regional, and local factors which affect Shelter Bed availability, the Parties agree that a high level of communication, coordination, and flexibility is necessary to effectively use all available Shelter Beds, and to refrain from submitting Shelter Bed placements when inventory is not available. There is no guarantee that a Shelter Bed is available at any specific time, as the complex and shifting factors that affect Shelter Bed inventory are beyond the control of the City of Bell and the Salvation Army

01135.0001/536707.2 -6-
Bell Shelter. The purpose of this pilot program is to increase coordination and communication on homelessness within the LCA1 subregion, to develop data at a subregional level, and to develop improved and effective partnerships on a subregional level with regional service providers and nonprofit entities. (a) Initial Use of Crisis Housing Bed Inventory. Upon the notice from the Salvation Army of availability of Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, ten percent (10%) of the thirty-six (36) beds will be designated as public safety priority beds for emergency use by the public safety agencies of all LCA1 Members, for a total of four (4) beds. The remaining ninety percent (90%), or thirty-two (32) beds, will be prioritized as four (4) general inventory beds per each LCA1 Member. This distribution equals eight (8) LCA1 Members times four (4) beds each for a general inventory of thirtytwo (32) beds. Initial intake into a public safety priority bed shall also require participation from a public safety agency (e.g., Bell Police Department, Bell Gardens Police Department, Los Angeles County Sheriff, South Gate Police Department, Vernon Police Department, etc.). Once the new resident is placed in a public safety bed and completes the facility intake process, they will be rotated from the priority public safety bed into one of the thirtytwo (32) general beds, if a general bed is available. If the LCA1 Members cannot fill the Shelter Bed inventory, and the Shelter Bed occupancy drops below ninety percent (90%), the Homeless Liaison may refer participants from non LCA1 Member SPA 7 cities to ensure that the Shelter Bed inventory is used efficiently up to a maximum of eighteen (18) non LCA1 Member SPA 7 placements at any one time. The LCA1 Members shall use best efforts to efficiently and effectively coordinate the shared use of available Shelter Beds to maintain ninety percent (90%) occupancy and meet their specific local needs depending on bed availability. The Salvation Army has agreed, pursuant to the Salvation Army Agreement to coordinate in good faith to plan transfers of homeless individuals to other available support programs, based on participant eligibility (i.e., Veteran’s Administration program shelter beds, Department of Mental Health program shelter beds, Substance Abuse Prevention and Control program shelter beds) to increase the annual number of participants that can benefit from the thirty-six (36) prioritized Shelter Beds under the Salvation Army Agreement. The LCA1 Members acknowledge and agree that the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds are not actually reserved or dedicated to the LCA1 Members’ homeless population, but are merely prioritized to them under the Salvation Army Agreement. Each week there shall be an analysis of the occupancy of Shelter Beds and allocations will be made available to each of the LCA1 Members through the Homeless Liaison in coordination with the LCA1 Members. As such, the effectiveness of this pilot program requires cooperation and consistent communication between the LCA1 Members and the Homeless Liaison, given the fluidity of available bed occupancy (and the rotation in and out of such beds by homeless individuals).
(b) Recalculation of Crisis Housing Bed Inventory. To ensure the full and efficient use of the thirty-six (36) prioritized Shelter Beds, cooperation and communication between the Parties is essential. Informal analysis and recalculation of Shelter Bed use ratios shall occur every week during the Term of this Agreement, and as needed, to use the available Shelter Beds efficiently. Thereafter, quarterly reviews will occur to determine the efficient use of the Shelter Beds, and the effectiveness of this pilot program and how it could be improved. Shelter Bed inventory flexibility is critical to effectively address

01135.0001/536707.2 -7-
conditions in the field (given the fact that individuals placed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter will likely be rotating in and out frequently) and in order to assess the success of program participants in receiving housing placement. As this program is a pilot program and requires participant flexibility, all Parties will designate a public safety contact and a staff contact for the Homeless Liaison to coordinate activities and improve communication, each of which are designated on the signature page for each of the Parties below. (c) Shelter Bed Availability Limitations. If the Salvation Army Bell Shelter is experiencing COVID-19 quarantine limits or holds on resident intake upon the execution of the Salvation Army Agreement, the Salvation Army Bell Shelter will not initiate invoicing for Shelter Beds until the beds are available. Limitations on Shelter Bed availability may exist depending on the number of available Shelter Beds in the Salvation Army Bell Shelter’s daily inventory. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter does not provide family shelter resources; thus LCA1 Members must coordinate placement of any such families to other shelters through the Homeless Liaison during business hours or call 211 (www.211la.org) to find suitable shelter or motel options for families in need. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter does not provide a kennel to shelter the pets of unhoused individuals in need. The thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds addressed in this Agreement are merely a supplement to the shelter beds available through the County CES. (d) Intake. New resident intake shall occur during regular business hours of 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday through Friday. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter provides 24 hour a day, seven day a week staffing, however the shelter has an inventory of four (4) safe rooms for intake and staff are required to perform COVID-19 protocols upon intake that limit the ability of the shelter to perform intake outside of regular business hours.

After hours domestic violence and/or other emergency placements are subject to the availability of an unoccupied safe room at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter. Emergency intake is available after hours, however due to a limited number of available safe rooms and due to COVID-19 protocols, after hours intake should only be for emergency situations. An after-hours call line that operates 24 hours a day will be provided to participating public safety agencies for use in the event of an after-hours emergency. (e) Length of Stay. Each participant will be limited to an initial stay of ninety (90) days. Two (90) day extensions are available upon request for participants actively working on a housing plan, for a maximum stay of 270 days for any individual participant.
(f) COVID-19 Protocols and Processes. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter restarted limited intake of residents into quarantine facilities on August 19, 2021. COVID19 protocols for intake include but are not limited to, i) any incoming participant is tested on the day of or on the day after intake regardless of vaccine status, ii) if an incoming participant is vaccinated, the participant may move into a public safety prioritized bed. If a participant is not vaccinated, they must remain in quarantine until two negative COVID19 tests are received. The second test occurs seven to eight days after the first, with results generally available within three days. Modular homes located on the greater Salvation Army Bell complex property serve as a first line of intake quarantine and are subject to availability.

01135.0001/536707.2 -8-
(g) Homeless Liaison. The Homeless Liaison will coordinate daily with assigned Salvation Army Bell Shelter staff, in order to determine the daily inventory on weekdays of Shelter Bed availability and the roster of shelter residents, however, it shall not be required to ensure the availability of all thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds since such beds are only prioritized, they are not specifically reserved, and the LCA1 Members must coordinate with the Homeless Liaison in order to ensure allocation of Shelter Beds for proposed participants. The Homeless Liaison will coordinate daily with assigned LCA1 public safety agency assigned staff (as designated on the signature page to this Agreement) to report shelter bed inventory availability and to determine any planned public safety needs. The Homeless Liaison will coordinate daily with designated Salvation Army Bell Shelter staff to determine how many residents can be transferred to general bed inventory or to other programs to maximize Shelter Bed use. The City of Bell and the Homeless Liaison shall have no liability for any failure to ensure a placement of any LCA1 Member’s proposed participant / homeless population within a Shelter Bed. (h) Reporting.
(i) Reporting by Salvation Army Bell Shelter: It is expected that the Salvation Army Bell Shelter will provide, i) daily inventory counts to the Homeless Liaison and, ii) a monthly report and invoice to the City of Bell and the Homeless Liaison. (ii) Reporting by the Homeless Liaison: the Homeless Liaison will reasonably endeavor to provide: i) a monthly report and the Salvation Army Bell Shelter invoice it received to all participating LCA1 cities and, ii) a quarterly report to the LCA1 Members and the Gateway Cities Council of Governments.
(iii) Participant level data will be entered into the LAHSA HMIS system for program reporting and auditing purposes.
(iv) The following metrics and expected outcome measures will be reasonably tracked and reported: i) a minimum of one hundred (120) unduplicated individuals will be served each year during the Term of this Agreement, ii) twenty percent (20%) of participants (of those able to work – e.g. not disabled or retired) will be employed by the expected exit date and, iii) thirty percent (20%) of participants will exit to permanent housing and, iv) eighty five percent (85%) of participants will complete a housing plan and, v) ten percent (10%) of participants will exit to another level of care (DMH IHP or other stable housing location). However, there shall be no liability to any of the Parties if such metrics and/or outcome measures are not achieved
Section 6. Defaults and Indemnification Provisions.
(a) Defaults. In the event any of the Parties shall fail to pay its required share of the costs of the Shelter Beds in any given month during the Term of this Agreement (or any extension approved by the Parties), then such party shall be in immediate default under this Agreement, and the City of Bell shall be entitled to, and may sue for, the payment of all such unpaid amounts (and the defaulting party shall pay interest at the lesser of (i) 10%

01135.0001/536707.2 -9-
per annum, or (ii), the maximum rate permitted by law) from and after the due date of such monetary payment obligation until payment is actually received. The Parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at law generally are inadequate and that specific performance is appropriate for the enforcement of this Agreement. Therefore, the remedy of specific performance shall be available to all Parties hereto. This subsection shall not limit any other rights, remedies, or causes of action that any party may have at law or equity.
(b) Indemnity by City of Bell. To the full extent permitted by law, the City of Bell agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the other Parties, and their respective officers, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, any and all actions, claim, or liabilities that may be asserted or claimed by the Salvation Army, arising out of or in connection with any defaults or failures asserted under the Salvation Army Agreement against the City of Bell, and/or the City of Bell’s negligent performance of the activities, work, or operations provided under this Agreement, except claims or liabilities occurring as a result of Indemnified Parties’ negligence or willful acts or omissions. The indemnity obligations contained herein shall be binding on successors and assigns of the Parties and shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(c) Indemnity by Parties. To the full extent permitted by law, each of the Parties agree (based on, and only up to, the Parties’ respective proportionate share of the costs due from each party as set forth in Section 3 above) to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City of Bell and the Homeless Liaison, and their respective officers, employees and agents against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, arbitration or regulatory claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities that may be asserted or claimed by the Salvation Army, or any other person, firm or entity arising out of or in connection with the Shelter Beds, the Salvation Army Agreement, and/or this Agreement, except with respect to the negligent performance of the activities, work, or operations provided by the City of Bell or the Homeless Liaison under the Salvation Army Agreement or herein. The indemnity obligations contained herein shall be binding on successors and assigns of the Parties and shall survive termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event any of the Parties fail to make any payment due hereunder, which causes the City of Bell to fail to make the payments due under the Salvation Army Agreement, the Parties shall share in any costs, liabilities, or claims that result from the failure of such nonpayment and the City of Bell shall not be required to make any additional payment to the Salvation Army to cover such un-reimbursed amounts.

Section 6. Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a) Notices. All notices or other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the appropriate party at the address set forth below (subject to change from time to time by written notice to all other Parties to this Agreement).

STAFF REPORT

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager
Prepared By: Lorena Cardenas, Housing Specialist II
Concurrence: Juan Arauz, Community Development Director; Cecilia Madrigal-Gonzalez, Senior Planner

Subject: Adoption of Proposed Resolution No. 24-13: Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program Grant Funding Eligible Activity for Year 4

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-13 (Attachment A) which approves the following action(s):

1. Elect eligible activitity for Year 4 of the 5-year Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program grant period for Supportive Services Case Management.

BACKGROUND
The Permanent Local Housing Allocation (“PLHA”) is an SB 2 Planning Grants funded program that was approved by the State legislature in 2017. It is designed to provide an ongoing annual source of funding through State Property Transfer Fees. PLHA funding is first allocated to a regional entity, in this case, the Los Angeles County Development Authority (“LACDA”) and later distributed to individual participating cities according to an allocation formula. Cudahy will receive a similar allocation amount on an annual basis over a five-year period and unexpended program funds may be carried over from year to year but must be used within five years of their original allocation date.

The City has previously adopted the following three resolutions relating to PLHA funds:

1. Resolution No. 21-25 (Attachment B) was adopted in September 2021, approving participation, and selecting eligible activities in Year 2, Item Number
14D

“Serving The People” "Sirviendo A La Comunidad"
Staff Report
6/4/2024 Page 2 of 4

2. Resolution No. 23-32 (Attachment C) was adopted in June 2023, approving participation in Year 3 of the program, and

3. Resolution No. 23-44 (Attachment D) was adopted in October 2023, approving eligible activities for Years 2 and 3 of the program to be Supportive Services Case Management, Rental Assistance, and Emergency Shelter Beds Program (Salvation Army Bell Shelter).

On April 1, 2024, LACDA issued GMU Bulletin Number: PLHA-24-0004 (Attachment E) listing the Year 4 PLHA funding allocations for each participating city. Cudahy is listed as eligible to receive $188,123 in Year 4 PLHA funding. LACDA anticipated the funding will be spend by December 31, 2026.

ANALYSIS
The PLHA program is designed to target individuals and households experiencing homelessness. The program includes provisions of housing and supportive case management services to individuals with the goal of obtaining and retaining housing. Services include but are not limited to, assisting persons who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness, providing rapid rehousing, rental assistance, supportive/case management services that allow people to obtain and retain housing, operating and capital costs for navigation centers and emergency shelters, and the new construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of permanent and transitional housing. Of the eligible activities, it is recommended that the City allocate the following activity and estimate allocation amount for Year 4 as described in Table 1 below. The full description of the proposed program is Attachment F, respectively.

• Strategy 3: Pursue grant opportunities as available to help residents with cash assistance or other needs.
• Strategy 4: Promote mental health wellbeing in the community through local partnerships.
• Strategy 5: Identify resources in the region and partner with other jurisdictions to support a regional approach to the delivery of social services.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

4. The anticipated special grant funding of $188,123 for Year 4 will be as a projected funding source in the FY 2024–2025 City Budget (Fund 511). As such, there is no impact on the General Fund.

THE SALARYPLAN
Section1. Purpose
This Exhibit to Resolution No. 24-__ is enacted pursuant to Section 2.04.070(2) of the Cudahy Municipal Code to provide for the compensation of City officers and employees and to conform to the principle of equal pay for equal work. The City Manager will ensure equitable placement within the merit range and annual merit raises based on negotiated agreements and/or administrative policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of any individual employment agreement(s) shall control the compensation amounts described in this Salary Plan when determining the salary of individual employees under contract with the City.

Section 2. Basic Compensation Plan
The basic compensation plan for City officers and employees, as of the date of adoption of this Plan is hereby established as set forth in the Addendum, including the following:
1) Hourly Range Table
2) Association Range Table
3) Management/Confidential Range Table
4) Salary Schedule
The Salary Plan shall be referred to as the Salary Schedule which incorporates the allocation of ranges (defined in the range tables) to classifications, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Range tables for the Cudahy Municipal Employees’ Association include five (5) steps with approximately 5% between steps.

Range tables for Management/Confidential/Department Directors include five (5) steps with approximately 5% between steps.

Range tables for Hourly employees consist of one (1) to three (3) steps with approximately 5% between steps.

Range tables for City Council Member and City Manager have one step (flat rate).

Section 3. Pay Philosophy
The City Council establishes a pay philosophy that the base pay of all positions shall be ideally set at the median pay provided by comparable cities of similar size, budget, staff, and 34 4

geographic area, based on the City’s financial ability to pay. Merit increases provide for annual pay increases annually for demonstrated positive work performance as documented on annual performance evaluations. Annual merit increases should generally follow one step increase per year until the final step. Any increases beyond one must be approved by the City Manager.

Section 4. Plan Maintenance
Increases to the Range tables and applied to the Salary Schedule are adopted and approved by the City Council via Resolution to amend the Salary Plan.

Such recommended increases are negotiated between the City and the Cudahy Miscellaneous Employees’ Association. The City Council may further take appropriate action to extend such increases to unrepresented Management/Confidential Employees, Appointed Officials including the City Clerk, City Treasurer, and City Manager, and positions appointed by the City Manager.

These actions help preserve appropriate compensation and prevent salary compression.

In addition to negotiated increases, the City may take steps to maintain the Salary Plan by conducting regularly scheduled salary reviews and/or intermittent salary reviews as determined by changes in the labor market, and the need to compete for talent and/or retain current employees.

Section 5. Additional Approved Increasesin Compensation and Changesto the Salary and Classification Plans
Miscellaneous Employees – (Cudahy Miscellaneous Employee’s Association)23 All members shall receive:
• A 3% increase to their base rate effective July 1, 2022; and • A 2.5% increase to their base rate effective July 1, 2023; and • A 2.5% increase to their base rate effective July 1, 2024.

ANALYSIS
A Classification Plan is the foundation of any municipal personnel management system. Job descriptions become the basis for orientation, training, performance evaluation, and recruitment. The City’s current Classification Plan was designed to provide a strong and understandable rationale for assigning individuals to classifications based on the assigned duties and responsibilities.

SUBSTANTIVE NEW CHANGES
The past two fiscal years saw a shift of contracted services being brought back in house. This led to a substantial increase in staffing across numerous functional areas. Given this robust growth, this year the focus will be to review and focus on increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of current staff. In doing so, there is a need to have more seasoned directors assume roles and responsibilities that transcend the traditional departmental structure. This classification plan provides flexibility for the City Manager to assign Assist City Manager responsibilities to a director based on increased responsibilities over more than one department. In order to provide such flexibility, the below language is being added to the four director positions. This will provide flexibility needed to manage the organization.

All Director classification updates (excluding the City Clerk as this is an Appointed position):

May serve in the role of Assistant City Manager (ACM)/Director as appointed by the City Manager for an assigned period, time, or the duration of a specific project. While assigned with the additional duties of Assistant City Manager, the City Manager will evaluate the compensation based on the additional functions/duties/responsibilities assigned. At no time will such compensation exceed Step E of range M11. At completion of any specified period or special project, the City Manager may return the Director to their respective department director role and compensation will be adjusted to their Department Director salary schedule.

Should there have been step increases during the time performing Assistant City Manager duties, the City Manager may adjust the departmental compensation as appropriate within the approved Department Director range. No other major changes to the classification plan.

CONCLUSION
If approved, the expanded duties in the City’s Job Classification Plan will be updated to reflect the recommended changes.
