Re: Urgent Request for Resolution of Potential Construction Delay on Housing Project at 12888 Crenshaw Boulevard
Dear Ms. Vasquez:

We represent Cityview (the “Developer”) which is in the process of developing a 265-unit multi- family housing project (“Project”) located at 12888 Crenshaw Boulevard in the City of Gardena (“Property”). The Project was approved in 2021 and the Developer has been issued a building permit and commenced construction in 2023. We request your immediate assistance in resolving an issue that has arisen regarding the need for a temporary tower crane airspace encroachment above the City’s right-of-way.

The Property is located on a constrained infill site, bordered on the north and south by developed parcels, to the east by the Dominguez Channel, and to the west by Crenshaw Boulevard.

Construction will require a tower crane and, due to the Site constraints, the tower crane will need to encroach above the City’s right-of-way. In the Developer’s extensive experience working on similar urban infill development projects throughout the state, this is common practice. To facilitate the erection and dismantling of the crane, the Developer has requested a limited and temporary additional northbound lane closure for two Saturdays, with the first closure needed on May 11, 2024. This will require a minor modification to the approved Traffic Control Plan. These events have been planned for weekends to avoid interference with work-week traffic.

On April 16, 2024, the City of Hawthorne issued an encroachment permit for the aerial encroachment of the tower crane into the City of Hawthorne. The City of Hawthorne took less than a week to review the Developer’s request and issue the permit, and the permit fee was $3,200 plus processing fees. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has also approved the crane, which was necessary due to the Property’s proximity to the Hawthorne Municipal Airport. Finally, the Los Angeles County Flood Control District has advised they will approve aerial encroachment of the tower crane over the Dominquez Channel. The permit application is being processed now and we have been advised the permit fee will be approximately $1,600 plus processing fees.

The response from the City of Gardena Public Works Department has been much more concerning. After the Developer proposed multiple days and times to meet with city staff this week, the Director of Public Works responded that there was no reason to meet because the City had to “determine if this is something we would allow, and if so what would be required, such as would we need to require easements for the public right of way and other properties impacted by the crane.” He further stated that “Any approval will probably need to go to the City Council, and may need environmental analysis.” This clearly suggests a lengthy and protracted process that could cause substantial delays to the Developer’s construction schedule and impose significant unanticipated increased costs as a result.

With due respect to Mr. Rigg’s expertise, and as discussed further below, it is our opinion that the Developer’s request is routine and should not require City Council action or separate environmental analysis. It seems that an encroachment permit, temporary construction easement, and/or a minor modification to the approved Traffic Control Plan should be sufficient, which is how the vast majority of municipalities (in fact all other municipalities based on our experience) handle this type of request.

The City Council certified an Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) when it approved this Project.

The EIR fully analyzes the potential impacts of constructing this project, including land closures and attendant construction traffic related impacts. No further environmental analysis should be required.

In fact, it likely unprecedented to require independent environmental analysis for such a standard and discrete – ministerially reviewed and approved – aspect of construction for a Project that was already studied through a full EIR.

Perhaps most importantly, the City Council has also already effectively weighed in on this Project through its approval of the Project entitlements including, specifically, a Development Agreement (“DA”). As you know, a DA is unique from garden variety entitlement approvals in that it establishes an ongoing contractual relationship between the Developer and the City. As a result, the City was able to obtain significant public benefits from this Project, including ongoing financial commitments which, but for the DA, would have been legally impossible for the City to extract. In exchange, the Developer also secured benefits including an extended term for the entitlements and a clear and express commitment by the City to expedite all pre and post construction related ministerial permits. Specifically, Section 6.1 of the DA obligates the City to process “all” construction-related permits - including encroachment permits - in an expedited manner:

6.1 Expedited Processing. The City shall process, at Developer's expense, in an expedited manner, all plan checking, excavation, grading, building, encroachment and street improvement permits, Certificates of Occupancy, utility connection authorizations, and other ministerial permits or approvals necessary, convenient or appropriate for the grading, excavation, construction, development, improvement, use and occupancy of the Project in accordance with the City's accelerated plan check process under the Applicable Rules. Without limiting the foregoing, if requested by Developer, the City agrees to utilize private planners and plan checkers (upon Developer's request and at Developer's cost) and any other available means to expedite the processing of Project applications, including concurrent processing of such applications by various City departments.

The Developer understands and fully appreciates that the City needs to ensure safety for pedestrians and motorists. We are therefore ready and willing to provide any additional information, safety commitments and/or assurances that the City may need to process these required permits, including providing any required indemnities or proof of insurance. As previously stated, the Developer has already obtained permits and clearances for the crane from multiple other jurisdictions and is prepared to engage in Gardena’s permitting process immediately, as needed.

Our hope is that we can meet with City staff immediately to resolve this matter given time is of the essence. If the City refuses to meet or otherwise delays this process, we believe that such actions will constitute a clear breach of Section 6.1 of the Development Agreement, putting the City in default.

While the Developer is prepared to pursue all available remedies under the Agreement, including the possibility of litigation, we hope that that will not be necessary and that we can move forward collaboratively and expeditiously.

We appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to further discussions very soon.

Sincerely,

Dave Rand

We acknowledge that communities benefit when people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds are welcomed, included, and supported.

Older adults continue to be a pillar of Gardena, which is why it is important that we explore the many ways that they can remain and be involved in our community. During this year’s Older Americans Month, we will explore the vital role that connectedness plays in supporting independence and aging in place by combatting isolation, loneliness, and other issues.

The City of Gardena can work to build an even better community for older residents by planning programs that encourage independence, ensuring activities are responsive to individual needs and preferences, and increasing access to services that support aging in place. By engaging and supporting all community members, we recognize that older adults play a key role in the vitality of our neighborhoods, networks, and lives. Connecting with others is one of the most important foundations of a community.

In support of this nationwide observance, I, Tasha Cerda, Mayor of the City of Gardena, California, am pleased to proclaim MMaayy 22002244, to be

21. CITY MANAGER REMARKS RE: DIRECTIVES / COUNCIL ITEMS

1) A Memo in which a directive was given by Council Member Love regarding livestreaming of the Planning Commission Meetings.

11 22. COUNCIL REMARKS

1) MAYOR PRO TEM HENDERSON – Since their last meeting, he had the honor of being the moderator for the South Bay Cities Council of Governments General Assembly where the topic was AI, Friend, or Foe, in public sector. In speaking with the City Manager earlier, he definitely wants to encourage our staff to start figuring out ways on how artificial intelligence can help us be more efficient to our offerings to our community. He was in a presentation today and shared that a few cities are using AI to handle a lot of the rudimentary issues and questions that are addressed by the community which allow staff to then spend more time on real complex community issues and they were receiving high remarks from the community regards to their responsiveness. He said AI may not fit in every department or every function, but it’s something we should start looking at.

He attended the SCAG Community Economic Housing Development Committee meeting, as well as the Regional Council Meeting representing Gardena, Inglewood and Hawthrone. At SCAG he had his ICA Board Meeting, E -Board Meeting, he wanted to congratulate the Gardena Police Foundation Scholarship recipients, some great work, and he wanted to thank the Gardena Police Foundation for providing funding for those that are going to be beginning their r eticulation journey through college and everything so that’s a great opportunity. He attended the 34
th Annual Southern California Air Quality
Management District Air Awards, where he was able to talk to folks about air quality and different things in regards to what Gardena can do to start working on our air quality because we have been labeled a community that has some air quality issues that we need to address. He definitely wanted to say thank you to the City of Gardena for giving him the opportunity to be the MC of our Wall That Heals ceremony, recognizing the Vietnam veterans, he thinks that’s really important for us to recognize those that made the ultimate sacrifice and also acknowledge the families that were impacted by the loss of their family member because that hurt and pain never goes away. He also did his community and business visits and lastly, he wanted to say thank you to the citizens of Gardena for re- electing him for a final term, he realizes we still have more work to do and he’s up for the challenge so again, he wants to say thank you and he’s ready to get back to work.

2) COUNCIL MEMBER FRANCIS – Since their last meeting, she attended the Martin Luther King Jr. Culture Committee meeting, the Gardena Holly Park Homeowners Association meeting, and the Region 18 meeting of the Los Angeles County Democratic Party. She just wanted to say that the folks that attended the meeting at Nakaoka were very impressed with our facilities, they said it was very nice and the staff was wonderful so she wanted to thank the staff for everything. She visited the Wall That Heals and she’s glad we had another opportunity to see it because she thinks it’s important that we remember the men and women that made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. She said the number of people lost to that war is overwhelming to her and she just thinks of all the empty chairs at the dinner table across the years and children that won’t get to see grandparents and she hopes and prays that we never have to go through that type of war again. To our Vietnam veterans she thanked them for their service and sacrifice.

She, too, wanted to give a special thank you and shout out to everyone that supported her re-election for her second term to Gardena City Council and she’s had some long conversations on what they can do to continue to make Gardena a great city to live, work, and play.

12 3) COUNCIL MEMBER TANAKA – Since their last gathering he attended our Finance Committee meeting with the city and he wanted to thank Mr. Beeman, our City Attorney and the staff that put the presentation on, it just shows what forward thinking minds we have when it comes to the finances of our city, so he thanked all of them for keeping us in the black. He attended the COG’s General Assembly at the Carson Community Center and he gave a thank you to Mayor Pro Tem Henderson for a great job moderating that.

The keynote speaker was Congressional Member Ted Lieu and he believes this was the best General Assembly that they’ve put on since he’s been a part of the COG and said it’s going to be a hard shoe to fill next year, but they’re working on it. He attended the Battle of the Badges blood drive, and thanked Chief Saffell and his staff for putting that on, as well as the retirement ceremony for Officer Villanueva, he said it was well deserved for all the things he has done as an officer for this city and all the people that he’s touched, especially the young people in our schools so congratulations. He was honored to be asked to attend the Wall That Heals event that started at Mar Vista School in El Segundo, they asked him to pray for that wall and its journey through El Segundo to Gardena and he was very touched that he was asked to do that. He said it was a great event to pay tribute to 58,000 fallen on that wall, some that he went to high school with are on that wall. He continued by thanking all the veteran motorcycle groups, California Highway Patrol and members of the Gardena Police Department that escorted that wall from El Segundo to Johnson Park and he wanted to thank the city staff and the volunteers that watched over that wall for 24 hours a day for the days it was at Johnson Park just making sure it was safe and allowing people to come any time of the day or night just to visit. It was a tribute that he appreciated people going to and he thanked all the veterans and their families for the service to our country and he said the Gold Star Family that did a presentation there was totally touching and he doesn’t think there was a dry eye in the place, once again he said thank you all for your service and God bless you. He attended the Gardena Police foundation scholarship event, it was a great event to see all the kids with above 5.0 GPAs going to great schools and it’s good to see our Police Foundation supporting our youth to become future leaders in our communities. He attended the COG Steering Committee meeting and Director Stephany Santin and her staff were commended for a visit that they made regarding our senior services and the things that we put on, they were totally amazed at how many events that our city puts on for our seniors and he believes Stephany is going to be asked to be showcased by other cities coming here and seeing what she does so he thanked her for representing us as the Emerald City. Lastly, he was honored to attend the celebration of life for Mr. Raymond Cordova, who is considered the Godfather of Labor, and it was held at the IBEW Local 11, known as the House of Labor. Mr. Cordova was a huge part of the South County Labor group and a true supporter of local union labor, he touched almost every politician in the State of California and some of the Congress people, Senators, Assembly people, he was a huge person that supported them and on his behalf they attended. It went on from 11 am to almost 4 pm with all the people that had things to say about him so he’s sure he had responsibility for success for many of the political figures in office today. He was proud on behalf of the M ayor, City Council, and the City of Gardena that they presented a certificate of recognition in his honor to a really distinguished man.

4) MAYOR CERDA – Since the last C ouncil Meeting she attended our quarterly finance meeting and she just wants to thank the staff for doing a great job in presenting all the information to the finance group and as everyone saw they had the simple version of it there just to show how we’re doing in the city. She was invited to attend the installation of the Inglewood Board of Realtors for the president executive board for 2024. She attended the retirement celebration for Officer Villanueva that was held in the PD parking 13 lot and Louis has touched so many people in this city including C ouncil Members and residents and definitely the kids. She attended the Inka Lions Club meeting that was held here in the City of Gardena at the Nakaoka Community Center, and they are a group that is so appreciative of the fact that they can use our facilities just to be able to have their meeting so she’s glad we’re able to offer that for our local community groups. She attended the Spirit of St. Mary’s banquet where they recognize several medical professionals in the City of Long Beach, more specifically that have helped out the Cambodian community and one of our commissioners here in Gardena who is a big part of that invited her to attend and it was nice to see how many people go over and beyond to help out folks that are at a disadvantage and making sure that they have the proper healthcare that they need. She also attended the Gardena Police Foundation scholarship awards that were presented to the young people. It was really awesome and put together by our business community and the scholarship award that they do has grown even bigger every year and she definitely encourages businesses to consider joining our foundation because they’re doing really great things. She attended the Wall That Heals opening, as well as, the closing ceremony and once again she’s honored by the fact that we were able to have the Wall That Heals here in Gardena and all the volunteers, everybody who was involved in that she extended a thank you. She wanted to give a special shout out to one of our departments here, she had a resident mention to her that the passport services the City Clerk’s Office offers is wonderful. He said it took the stress off of having to go to the Federal Building in Los Angeles away and everyone in the office was very polite and made the experience wonderful for him so she just wanted to give the City Clerk’s Office a special thanks because it was more than just the passports, he said they had the best personalities. She wanted to apologize for missing the big COG event, but everybody went and everybody was talking about how great it was so she’s glad to know they had a great event. The last thing she wanted to mention is that earlier that night they had a speaker about the pantry and how he felt bad he had to turn people away, she wanted people to be aware that Gardena does have their own pantry as well, so if there are people out there who are hungry they can visit our pantry through our Human Services Department and we also have resources for some of our churches in the area that also have food as well that they can give out to those who are in need so she doesn’t want people to walk away from their meetings thinking that there’s no services like that available, they may not be quite as large as the one the speaker mentioned, but there are still avenues that we can help you with in the City of Gardena.

The applicant is requesting the approval of a Specific Plan (SP #1-21) that provides for development of approximately 5.3-acres for up to 403 residential dwelling units.

The project proposed to remove all existing onsite structures (approximately 115,424 square feet (SF) of industrial uses) and, in their place, construct 328 apartment units in a seven-story apartment building and 75 three-story townhome units within ten buildings. The applicant’s request includes a General Plan Amendment (GPA #3-21) to change the land use designation on the Gardena General Plan Land Use Map from Industrial and Industrial with a High Density 30 Overlay to “Specific Plan”; a Zone Change (ZC #4-21) to replace the existing zoning designation of General Industrial (M-2) and General Industrial (M-2) with a Housing Overlay 4 (HO-4) with the Normandie Crossing Specific Plan zone and Zone Text Amendment (ZTA #6-21) to amend the text of the Gardena Municipal Code to add this new zone; a Site Plan Review (SPR #11-21) of the physical design of the development which is incorporated in the Specific Plan; a Vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTM #4-21) to combine four lots into two and create one parcel for the apartment building and one parcel for the townhome-style buildings with the ability to create condominiums on the 75 townhome-style units; a Development Agreement (DA #2-21) between the City and developer that guarantees the right to build the development as set forth in this Specific Plan for a period of 10 years and provides community benefits to the City including affordable housing and a monetary payment. The Project will require an Affordable Housing Agreement to guarantee the affordability of the 20 lower- income units for a period of 55 years.

As part of the project, the City is considering the Zoning Map and General Plan Land Use map amendments of two separate parcels, immediately adjacent to the project site, to correspond to the existing land uses within each parcel. The first is a change to the residential parcel at 16964 West 179th Street, from a General Industrial (M-2) designation to Single-Family Residential (R-1). The second is a change to the Union Pacific Railroad parcel immediately adjacent and east of the project site, from a Genera Industrial (M-2) designation to Official (O).

Approval of these items requires certification of an Environmental Impact Report (EA # 20-21), adoption of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan, CEQA Findings, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations.

Vice Chair Langley and Commission Wright-Scherr disclosed and recused themselves from the public hearing as they live within 500 feet of the proposed project site.

Community Development Manager, Amanda Acuna, presented staff’s report on the proposed project to the Planning Commission.

Rita Garcia, the City’s environmental consultant, presented an overview of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) that was prepared for the project to the Planning Commission.

Ms. Acuna then stated that it was staff’s recommendation that the Planning Commission:

1) Conduct the public hearing;
2) Receive testimony from the public;
3) Recommend to the City Council to certify the FEIR and adopt a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, Findings Relating to Alternatives and Mitigation Measures, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for purposes of the project; 4) Make a recommendation on the following:
a) Whether to approve General Plan Amendment #3-21, which includes the changes to the two adjacent properties.

b) Whether to approve the remaining requested entitlements under the project: Zone Change #4-21 which includes the changes to the two adjacent properties; Zone Text Amendment #6-21; Specific Plan #1-21; Vesting Tentative Map #4-21; Site Plan Review #11- 21; Development Agreement #2- 21; and Affordable Housing Agreement subject to the attached conditions of approval.

Chair Henderson opened the public hearing.

The applicants, Steven Ludwig, Dave Rand, and Fred Shaffer spoke to the Commission about the projects and reasons for requesting approval of the entitlements.

Chair Henderson asked a question to the City’s environmental consultant on the trip distribution and how the access points were determined.

Ms. Garcia responded that the access points themselves were a part of the project's design, and went on to say that CEQA no longer considered Level of Service analysis, however, added that a traffic impact analysis was prepared by the applicant for the project and included as an appendix to the EIR. She went on to say that there is a threshold under CEQA in the transportation section that looks at the potential for any potential transportation related hazards and that the EIR did look at the project site's access points and their relationship to sidewalks, to other transportation-related matters, including the railroad; the report determined impacts would be less than significant through the coordinated effort that occurred between the applicant, the city, the railroad company, and CPUC.

Mr. Rand expanded on Ms. Garcia’s response stating that there was an analysis conducted thoroughly by Fehr and Peers to determine whether a new signal light would be warranted at that intersection based on the traffic volumes that would be created by the project, and the circulation generated by the various housing units and residents in the direction they'd be going in and out. After that was looked at, it was determined that the signal was not warranted in particular because it was too close to another existing signal; and added that there’s a certain distance that would need to be to achieved in order to have a new signal warranted. Mr. Rand then went on to say that traffic impact analysis looked at the existing circulation patterns then took into account the anticipated traffic that would be generated from the apartments and townhome users and the distribution of that traffic, and it was determined that a new traffic signal was not warranted or desirable. He added that the access off of Normandie Avenue was a right-in and right-out only.

Chair Henderson asked the applicant whether they provided the information regarding the traffic impact analysis to the public at the community meetings they held.

Mr. Rand answered that all of these documents were disclosed as part of the City’s process and that the traffic data was attached as an appendix and was circulated as part of the CEQA process. He went on to say that the traffic report was one of the documents and studies that were required to produce to show the community the potential for impacts and that the city required the analysis.

Chair Henderson wanted clarification on the number of stories the project will have and whether there will be subterranean parking

Mr. Rand responded that the project is two levels of parking with five levels of apartments over it. and that there would be a parking ratio of about 1.2 spaces per unit.

He went on to say that this ratio is right where the Institute of Transportation Engineers' latest
addition suggests apartment parking should achieved and that it is a blended rate that includes areas that are not infill like the City.

Chair Henderson then asked staff how many speaker cards were received from those in attendance wishing to speak on this matter.

Planning Assistant, Kevin La, stated that there were a total of 17 speaker cards received thus far.

At that time Chair Henderson asked members of the public to limit their comments to two minutes.

Silvio Carrara, Aileen Araki, Annie Roddy, John Hydro, Cory Shiuzaki, Michael Hall, Kerry Dei, Hideki Obayashi, Jessie Carrara, Cynthia Stevens, Patricia McCauley, and Carrie Ishitani all voiced their opinions against the project to the Planning Commission.

Eduardo Padilla, Gregoro Hernandez, and Brandon Smith voiced their opinions in favor of the project to the Planning Commission.

Travon Oliver, Corey Crockenham, and Maria Coronado voiced their opinions on hiring local contractors for the development of the project to the Planning Commission

Assistant City Attorney, Lisa Kranitz, stated to the Chair that the applicants should be given a chance to respond to the comments received and heard.

Mr. Rand responded to the public comments, acknowledged their concerns, and stated that the main concern of traffic and parking was thoroughly researched and studied through the traffic analysis and that the number of residential units will help with providing more housing in the City of Gardena.

Commissioner Kanhan inquired how long the project would take to complete construction.

Mr. Shaffer stated that the EIR estimated three years for construction.

Chair Henderson asked why there is a term limit on affordable housing.

Mr. Shaffer answered that a 55-year term limit for affordable housing is the normal standard for low-income units for a deed restriction.

Ms. Kranitz elaborated that the required 55 years is in line with the density bonus law for affordable rental housing.

Commissioner Sherman questioned how much rent would be for the market rate units.

Mr. Shaffer stated that the rent will be determined by the market rate similar to other projects that were recently constructed in the City of Gardena.

Mr. Ludwig added that the market rate townhome units, while not deed restricted at an affordable level, would fall within the FHA financing limits and allow first-time home buyers to put down roughly three and a one-half percent of the purchasing price.

Chair Henderson closed the public hearing.

Chair Henderson voiced his concerns about the project and that he would like to see a reduction in the number of residential units.

Commissioner Sherman stated that he was not in favor of the project as he felt the seven-story apartment building was too large for that neighborhood which included single-family residential units.

Commissioner Kanhan expressed his concerns about the height of the apartment building and would like to see a reduction in stories to improve the project.

Chair Henderson explained that the project would assist in the housing issues that Gardena faces, but currently, there are too many units proposing 328 units on the property, but would still like to certify the EIR.

MOTION: It was moved by Commissioner Kanhan and seconded by Chair Henderson to direct staff to bring forth a resolution recommending the City Council certify the Final Environmental Impact Report for the purposes of the project.

The motion was passed by the following roll call vote:

Ayes: Kanhan, Henderson, Sherman

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
Chandler Asset Management, Inc. (“Chandler”) is an SEC registered investment adviser. For additional information about our firm, please see our current disclosures (Form ADV).

To obtain a copy of our current disclosures, you may contact your client service representative by calling the number on the front of this statement or you may visit our website at www.chandlerasset.com.

Information contained in this monthly statement is confidential and is provided for informational purposes only and should not be construed as specific investment or legal advice. The information contained herein was obtained from sources believed to be reliable as of the date of this statement, but may become outdated or superseded at any time without notice.

Custody: Your qualified custodian bank maintains control of all assets reflected in this statement and we urge you to compare this statement to the one you receive from your qualified custodian. Chandler does not have any authority to withdraw or deposit funds from/to the custodian account.

Valuation: Prices are provided by IDC, an independent pricing source. In the event IDC does not provide a price or if the price provided is not reflective of fair market value, Chandler will obtain pricing from an alternative approved third party pricing source in accordance with our written valuation policy and procedures. Our valuation procedures are also disclosed in Item 5 of our Form ADV Part 2A.

Performance: Performance results are presented gross-of-advisory fees and represent the client’s Total Return. The deduction of advisory fees lowers performance results. These results include the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Therefore, clients should not assume that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal to past performance levels. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. Economic factors, market conditions or changes in investment strategies, contributions or withdrawals may materially alter the performance and results of your portfolio.

Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions. Historical performance results for investment indexes generally do not reflect the deduction of transaction and/or custodial charges or the deduction of an investment management fee, the incurrence of which would have the effect of decreasing historical performance results.

With the enactment of more recent legislation, AB2452 and AB2151, the Act requires the local filing officer to make all data available on the internet in an easily understood format that provides the greatest public access within 72 hours of the filing deadline, and;

WHEREAS,
Historically, City Council candidates and campaign
committees have filed paper copies of required campaign statements and reports. Once filed, the documents are made available for review by the public. The City Clerk’s Office spends a significant amount of staff time to make such paper filings readily available and posted online which requires further handling. Public access to campaign disclosure information is a vital and integral component of a fully informed electorate.

Transparency in campaign financing is critical in order to maintain public trust and support of the political process. Nevertheless, these values require staff resources to implement. As a means to more cost -effectively maintain the public trust, the City recently contracted with NetFile for installation of two electronic programs for on- line submittal and posting of Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) forms related to Conflict of Interest ( i.e., Form 700s) and Campaign Disclosure documents (i.e. Form 460s). Both programs have been installed and are operational, however, there is one remaining authorization necessary by Council in order to make these filings fully electronic, and;

WHEREAS, Pursuant to California Government Code Section 84615, the City Council must officially adopt an Ordinance memorializing their approval to require and authorize complete electronic signature and submission of electronic campaign disclosure forms. Tonight’s action is the first of a two- step process to implement electronic filing.

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

SECTION 1. Purpose and Authority. The purpose of this Ordinance is to require the filing of Campaign Disclosure Statements and Statements of Economic Interest by elected officials, candidates, staff, consultants, or committees to be completed electronically. The City Council enacts this Ordinance in accordance with the authority DocuSign Envelope ID: B2087343-587A-4CA8-A524-BC62B119B07A ORDINANCE NO. 1869
2 granted to cities by state law. This ordinance is intended to supplement, and not conflict with, the Political Reform Act.

SECTION 2. Findings.

The City Council of the City of Gardena finds and determines as follows:

A. That California Government Code Section 84615 provides that a legislative body of a local government agency may adopt an ordinance that requires an elected officer, candidate, or committee, required to file statements, reports, or other documents required by Chapter 4 of the Political Reform Act to file such statements, reports, or other documents online or electronically with the City Clerk.

B. In any instance in which the original statement is required to be filed with the Secretary of State and a copy of that statement is required to be filed with the City, the filer is permitted, but not required, to file a copy electronically; C. The City Clerk's web -based system contains multiple safeguards to protect the integrity and security of the data, will operate securely and effectively, and will not unduly burden filers; and
D. The City Clerk/Deputy City Clerk will operate the electronic filing system in compliance with the requirements of California Government Code Section 84615 and any other applicable laws.

E. This Ordinance is not a project within the meaning of Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, either directly or ultimately. In the event that the Ordinance is found to be a project under CEQA, it is subject to the CEQA exemption contained in CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty to have no possibility to have a significant effect on the environment.

C. On March 3, 2021, building permits were issued for various renovations including a kitchen remodel, window replacements, door changes, a new porch enclosure, a new front trellis, and a garage conversion into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).

Award Contract with Gruber and Lopez, Inc. for Professional Auditing Services for the Fiscal Years Ending June 30, 2024, 2025, and 2026 in the Amount of $240,625
COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED:

Staff Recommendation: Award Contract
RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF SUMMARY:

In February 2024, a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Professional Auditing Services was issued and released on PlanetBids along with publication in the Gardena Valley News and posted on the City website. The RFP solicited a qualified firm of certified public accountants for a three (3) year contract to prepare and audit financial statements for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2024, 2025, and 2026 with an option to extend the contract two (2) fiscal years ending June 30, 2027, and 2028 with the following schedule:

Release of RFP
February 12, 2024
Question submittal deadline
February 28, 2024
Proposals due
March 14, 2024

As a professional service, the selection process was based on both price and scope of services, so technical and cost proposals were submitted and reviewed separately with qualifications evaluated on a number of levels such as qualifications of the firm, key personnel, project understanding, audit approach, and project cost.

The City received four proposals in response to the RFP from the following firms, listed in alphabetical order:

Badawi & Associates, Certified Public Accountants
Gruber and Lopez, Inc.

SingerLewak LLP
Vasquez & Company LLP

A City panel evaluated the proposals and interviewed all four respondents. As a result of this evaluation process, the proposal from Gruber and Lopez, Inc. (Gruber) was ranked highest of all proposers to provide professional auditing services to the City. Gruber engagement team members all have over 25 years of experience providing audit services to local government entities and includes a small audit team comprised of Partners, Managers, and Seniors.

Gruber has a long history of efficiently staffing its accounting and consulting projects and bringing the projects in on time and on budget. Their firm partners are also more involved in the engagement than other firms which translates into better service to the City. Gruber has been serving the community for the last 13 years and is located in Newport Beach. They have also audited several surrounding cities that are similar to the City of Gardena.

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the three-year contract with Gruber and Lopez, Inc. in the amount of $240,625 to provide professional auditing services for fiscal years ending June 30, 2024, 2025, and 2026.

a. Extended Education

GRUBER AND LOPEZ, INC. also belie ves in extended education. Rec ent relevant courses taken by our firm’s attest division include the following: Annual Government GAAP Update-3/2023; Federal Singl e Audit Update-1/2023; Governm ent and Nonprofit Update -1/2023; Audits of State and Local Governments -2/2023; GFOA’s Government Accounting Standards Board Update-11/2023; and Econo mic Update- 12/2023, and more.

b. Net Value Philosophy

Our net value philosophy is simple. A CPA firm should, over tim e, increase a client’s efficiency through informed business advice. To avoid tunnel vision syndrome, we operate with the intent of providing a net value t o our clients in the form of recommendations and advice that may result in strengthe ning net assets for our clients.

c. The Experience Factor

There is no substitute for experience. Therefore, we generally do not assign new staff members to work on clients in the field. Rather, a new staff member is assigned to an experienced CPA, who will be responsible for proper training wi thout placing a burden on our clients. In this re spect, our training is more of a s t r u c t u r e d apprenticeship. Our partners have a personal commitment to prov iding excellent client service. Such service requires “hands on” director invol vement with each and every client. There is no increase in cost to our clients for t his additional experience, only an increase in benefits. We believe that when you add cont inuity to this experience factor, you achieve a superior level of client servi ce in all respects. The manner in which our work product is produced places far less bu rden on your accounting personnel. More important ly, it ensures that we are in a position for our most experienced individuals to thoroughly understand your organization.

d. Time is of the Essence

We are all too familiar with the d elays that can result in fina ncial statements being completed untimely. We enforce a policy whereby an extremely efficient turn- around is promised for all auditing and accounting services. We clear ly understand that the value of our services diminishes with each and every delay.

e. Partner Involvement

Our partners spend substantially more time on each client than “Big Four” or national firm directors. You w ill see your engagement partners frequently during the year for meetings and planning sessions. The bottom line is tha t more partner involvement means better service to you. This is our firm-wide and personal commitment to you. Gruber and Lopez, Inc. has a long history of efficiently staffing its accounting and consulting projects and bringing the project s in on time and on budget. We employ a detailed project management approach whereb y each project is carefully planned by program area. Budgets are prepared and mon itored daily to compare budgeted time against act ual; variances from budgets ar e analyzed and explained, and weekly status repor ts are prepared to ensure tha t the project is on schedule and within budget.

The firms’ relevant experience is listed under Section 4 below. To maximize the benefit to the City as a result of this engagement, Gruber and Lopez, Inc. proposes to utilize our structured business process methodology, experience, and knowledge in executing this e ngagement. Our approach places great emphasis on using only proven and experienced auditors and consultants to p e r f o r m t h e s e r v i c e s required by the City. The following is a summary of the approach to the different types of tasks that may be assigned under this RFP and expected deliverables and work products.

On a date desired by management in April or May 2024, audit pro cedures that will be accomplished during the planning stage include the following:

 Entrance conference with the Fin ance Manager and other key City personnel to:
review project and task objectives ; review scope of services an d data collection methodology; discuss documentation needed; collect available da ta and published materials; establish meeting and presentation schedule; discuss dates for interim and final fieldwork and coordinate and establish communication chan nels in accordance with SAS 114.

 Prepare a list of items needed (our workpapers are in electroni c form, so electronic files for schedules and documents requested will be preferred b ut not required). Our request of items to be provided will conform to what the City has previously provided to its existing Auditor. Should we need additional information, we will work with City staff to minimize any additional work load to the City. E ach associate is assigned a lap top for fieldwork and we use primarily Microsoft Word and Excel for our audit engagements. We will also establish materiality level s for the government- wide and fund financial statements.

 Thoroughly review all relevant doc uments and agreements (debt i ssues, leases, significant contracts, joint pow er agreements etc.) and prepare an audit plan that will include an audit program, audit pr ocedures, and timeline for al l audits. Levels of materiality will also be developed.

 Planning will continue throughout t he audit and be constantly u pdated as issues and scope may change as the audit proceeds.

On a date desired by management in April or May 2024, audit pro cedures that will be accomplished during our interim fieldwork include the following:

 We will provide instructions for mailing out letters to confirm bank balances for cash and investments, attorneys, debt, material receivables, OPEB, P ERS and risk management insurance.

 We will review internal controls of the main cycles (cash recei pts, cash disbursements/ procurement, payr oll, capital assets, IT, and tr easury management) and assess controls risk in accordance with the risk auditing s tandards (SAS 103 to 111) and fraud risk standards (SAS 99). We will identify areas of potential concern to City management.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 0291150B-356F-4369-ADD0-4DF0B6D77D59 11 4. SPECIFIC AUDIT APPROACH (Continued)

o City procurement policies are being followed.

 Test salary expense by performin g payroll test of transactions, review and test city manager contract, and interviewing employees.

 Compliance testing of City budgetary policies.

On a date desired by management in September 2024 (after the fi nal closing of the books and preparation of final trial b alances by City personnel for t he year ended June 30), we will commence performing our final fieldwork which will include:

 Confirm cash and investment balances and test bank reconciliati ons. Also ensure the proper recording in accordance with GASB 31 Fair Value Reporting for Investments and GASB 40 Deposit and Investment Risk Disclosures.

 Test capital assets and accumulated depreciation to ensure they are fairly stated and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and t hat streets and roads network are properly using the modified approach in accordance with GASB 34.

 Review of attorney letters for significant legal matters affect ing the City’s financial position.

 Perform other substantive procedures on other significant revenues and expenditures.

 Ensure operating leases are properly recorded and classified.

 After City approval of all reports, we will print, bind and mail final copies of report to the City.

Should the City meet the Single Audit criteria for expenditures of federal funding during the fiscal year, we would perform the following procedures in p erforming the Single Audit during both the interim and final stages of the audit:

 The following relevant federal and AICPA publications will be addressed:

As prescribed by the directives of the new sing le audit requirements, this will involve a consideration of the complexity of the prog ram, prior audit findings, changes in personnel, the competency of personnel, th e extent to which sub- recipients are used, the extent of overview and monitoring by g ranting agencies, the extent of recent changes in program requirements, the newness o f the program, the size of the program, and the inherent risk of the program.

Evolution in the financial ser vices industry has been ponderously slow relative to the rest of the business sector. Many firm s operate in the year 2024 wit h the same fundamental organization structure and approa ch to client service that they employed during the 1970’s. However, the world is now a vastly different place. In today’s business environment of high-speed telec ommunications and information pr ocessing, a large bureaucratic structure can often bring client service to a grinding halt.

In response to this problem, we have created an accounting firm specifically designed and organized to serve a wide variety of companies. We provide the quality and depth traditionally associated with “Big Four” firms, while at the sa me time providing the security of attention and stability that is the hallmark of the local firm.

Every aspect of our practice is organized to respond to a cha nging environment and to prevent the “chains of bureaucracy” from inhibiting individual excellence and client service. For instance, our partners spend substantially more time on each client than “Big Four” or national firm directo rs. You will see your engagement partners almost daily during audit fieldwork. The botto m line is that more partner in volvement means better service to you. This is our firm-wide and personal commitment to you.

Our net value philosophy is simple. A CPA firm should, over t ime, increase a client’s efficiency and improve internal controls through informed busin ess advice. To avoid tunnel vision syndrome, we operate with the intent of providing a net value to our clients in the form of recommendations and advice that may result in strengthening net assets for our clients.

In conclusion, we offer virtu ally all the services associated with the larger national firms but we provide these services on a personalized one-on-one basi s and without unnecessary red tape or overhead. We are here to serve your needs.

TO: Chair Henderson and Members of the Planning and Environmental Quality Commission

FROM: Greg Tsujiuchi, Community Development Director

PREPARED BY: Amanda Acuna, Community Development Manager

APPLICANT: City of Gardena

LOCATION: Citywide

REQUEST: Recommendation to the City Council on adoption of Ordinance No.1871 to amend Chapter 5.52 and Title 18 of the Gardena Municipal Code relating to significant tobacco retailers, cigar lounges, hookah lounges, and similar use determinations and making a finding that the Ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).

BACKGROUND
At the City Council Meeting held on February 28, 2023, staff received a Council directive to begin looking into either regulating or prohibiting significant tobacco retailers due to the proliferation of these types of businesses and the harmful effects of tobacco on the residents, especially the youth. Subsequently, at the City Council meeting held on March 14, 2023, staff received further direction to prepare a moratorium prohibiting new significant tobacco retail businesses from being established in the City while the matter is studied.

A report prepared for the City Council meeting on March 28, 2023, showed that t he number of significant tobacco retailers , businesses that principally sell tobacco related products, h ad significantly increased within the City from ten (10) in October 2021 to sixteen (16) in March 2023. With the concern about the proliferation of these types of businesses and the harmful effects of tobacco on the residents, the City Council adopted an urgent measure for a moratorium prohibiting any new significant tobacco retailer April 2, 2024
