Meeting Date: July 14,
2026
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE GARDENA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA TITLE: Approve Modification to the Agreement between City of Gardena and South Coast Air Quality Management District for the AB2766 / MSRC Zero Emission Microtransit Service Grant Program COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED:

Staff Recommendation: Approve Agreement Modification

RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF SUMMARY
In December 2023, City Council approved GTrans' pilot Microtransit service, now branded as Bolt, Powered by GTrans. The pilot, which co-mingled paratransit service with a new, on-demand Microtransit service began in December 2024, and is currently underway. To help offset some of the cost of the pilot, GTrans applied for and was awarded $424,134 by the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee's (MSRC) Zero-Emission Microtransit Service grant program. GTrans committed $1,315,992 in local match funds for a total project cost of $1,740,126. In June 2024, Council approved the agreement to access these funds.

Since the launch of the service, GTrans experienced several operational considerations and constraints that affected the pace of expenditures under the MSRC agreement, such as ongoing operator shortages and lower- than-projected service demand. As a result of those constraints, the level of service delivered during the initial implementation period has been less than originally anticipated, resulting in unexpended MSRC funds. Therefore, GTrans requested and was granted a six-month extension of the MSRC agreement in order to fully expend the funds. The modification will extend the agreement through November 30, 2026.

Therefore it is recommended that Council approve the modification to the agreement between the City of Gardena and South Coast Air Quality Management District for the AB2766 / MSRC Zero Emission Microtransit Service Grant Program.

FISCAL IMPACT/COST:

GTrans allocated $1,315,992 as the required local match in current and prior budget years for the deployment of this service through the end of the agreement term. There is no impact to the General Fund.

Therefore, a modification to this Agreement is necessary to extend the date by which performance must be completed and modify the Statement of Work.

A. The term of this Agreement is extended for an additional period commencing September 1, 2026 and terminating November 30, 2026.

On June 2, 2026, the City's Measure GG, a local transaction and use tax increase of 0.25% was passed by the voters of Gardena as certified by the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk and presented to the City Council on the July 2, 2026 meeting.

Pursuant to California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 7056, the City Council is required to grant authority, by resolution, for the City Manager to execute agreements with CDTFA in order to implement a locally approved transactions and use tax. In order for the City to begin receiving revenue generated by Measure GG, two separate agreements with the CDTFA must be executed:

2. Administration Agreement (Exhibit B). This agreement authorizes the State, through the CDTFA, to begin allocating the tax revenue to the City of Gardena once collection begins. It also establishes the basic procedures for record keeping, reporting, and ongoing communication between the City and the State.

Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6744, which authorizes the City Manager to execute the necessary agreements with CDTFA to ensure the timely implementation of Measure GG.

SUMMARY

Agenda Item No. 15C.

Section: DEPARTMENTAL

ITEMS - ELECTED & CITY

MANAGER'S OFFICES
Meeting Date: July 14,
2026
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE GARDENA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA TITLE: Approval of First Amendment to Agreement with Hinderliter, de Llamas and Associates (HdL) Companies for City Tax Audit and Information Services
COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED:

Staff Recommendation: Approve Agreement Amendment
RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF SUMMARY:

The City currently contracts with HdL for tax reporting, monitoring, and analysis of its Bradley-Burns and Measure G tax revenues, including identification of misallocations, underreporting, and non-reporting of tax revenue. HdL possesses specialized knowledge, proprietary technology, and unique access to resources that support revenue enhancement, forecasting, fiscal analysis, and economic development support related to tax revenue matters.

With the passage of Measure GG, the City desires the same level of service currently provided by HdL to be extended to the new Measure GG transaction and use tax base. Proposed fees under the amendment are:
$300 per month for tax audit and information services, including transaction district tax report bundled with quarterly sales tax analysis; and
25% recovery rate for revenue discovery services related to Measure GG transactions, consistent with HdL's existing contract.

The City has received excellent service from HdL. Their quarterly and annual sales tax forecasts have been extremely useful for financial projections and budgeting. Therefore, it is recommended that the City Council approve the first amendment to the agreement with HdL for tax audit and information services.

FISCAL IMPACT/COST:
$3,600 per fiscal year from the General Fund. Revenue discovery fees are contingency-based and paid only from recovered revenue.

SUMMARY

Agenda Item No. 16A.

Section: DEPARTMENTAL

ITEMS - POLICE
Meeting Date: July 14,
2026
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE GARDENA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA TITLE: Authorization to Contract with Phoenix Group Information Systems for Parking Administrative, and Law Enforcement Processing Services
COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED:

Approve contract.

RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF SUMMARY:

Staff respectfully recommend that the City Council authorize the Police Department to contract with Phoenix Group Information Systems (“Phoenix”) for Parking and Administrative Citation Management Services and Collection Services.

The City has utilized the services of Phoenix to process parking and administrative citations and handheld enforcement solutions for the last 16 years. The pricing structure for the City of Gardena has never been augmented during the time that Phoenix has been contracting with the City.

The City will also receive eight complimentary handheld device replacements and eight printers (with an estimated value of $15,000) at no cost, as part of the proposed contract for the Police Department. In addition, the City has never been charged the monthly handheld device support fee of $60 (previously $40) per handheld unit/per month that other Agencies pay for daily support on devices. This resulted in cost savings of approximately $19,200 over the last five-year term. This will continue to be offered to the City as a benefit and the fee for support will be waived, resulting in additional savings of $28,800 for the proposed five-year term. Additionally, there are no costs for software updates as Phoenix is committed to providing the latest technology.

Phoenix will also continue to waive the current monthly database fee that is $350 per month. This results in savings of $21,000 over the proposed 60-month term. The services that are included in this monthly fee are listed in the attached contract agreement (Exhibit A).

A continued additional benefit in continuing to contract with Phoenix is the fact no data migration from a previous vendor will be necessary, as the process can be disruptive and confusing to the citizen during transition. The Police Department continues to be very satisfied with Phoenix’s level of service and technical response. Most importantly the overall cost savings gained with continuing to contract with Phoenix is approximately $64,800.

Staff therefore respectfully recommend approval of the contract for an additional five years.

FISCAL IMPACT/COST:

Estimated cost to General Fund per fiscal year is $200,000, with the revenues generated by these costs exceeding expenditures by approximately $1 million per fiscal year. Contract agreement covers a five-year period.

APPROVED:
