REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Award of Professional Services Agreements to Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc. and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers for Water Storage Facility Rehabilitation Projects

1. Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute two (2) three-year Professional Services Agreements (PSAs) with two qualified consultants, Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc. and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers, to act on behalf of the City as Owner's Engineers specializing in the design and oversight of City water storage facility rehabilitation projects for a total not-to-exceed amount of $450,000 per consultant.

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for April 19, 2022 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Request for Proposal (RFP) process for the Design, Project Management, Construction Management and Inspection Services for Potable and Recycled Water Storage Facilities Rehabilitation Projects FY 2022-25 has concluded. Glendale Water & Power (GWP) staff now recommends awarding two (2) three-year Professional Services Agreements (PSAs) to two qualified consultants, Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc. and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers, to act on behalf of the City as Owner's Engineers specializing in the design and oversight of City water storage facility rehabilitation projects for a total not-to-exceed amount of $450,000 per consultant. 5 of 131

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Fiscal Responsibilities: GWP has been using pre-qualified Owner’s Engineers who specialize in water tank and reservoir rehabilitation for the design and oversight of City water storage facility rehabilitation projects for nearly a decade. This method has accelerated the delivery of water storage facility rehabilitation projects. Utilizing firms with specialized experience has reduced the financial burden for residents and businesses that fund the ongoing reliability of the City’s water system through water rates by shortening the period these projects take to complete and by reducing the potential for contract changer order during construction of the projects.

Economic Vibrancy: A consistent and reliable water supply is a foundational necessity for economic vibrancy in the City, and ongoing rehabilitation of the City’s water storage facility reduces unplanned down time and maintenance costs.

Exceptional Customer Service: Through the Water Storage Facility Rehabilitation Program, GWP has been proactive in conducting rehabilitation and maintenance on the water storage facilities, prior to their failure, which helps to maintain a reliable and safe water supply to Glendale’s residents and businesses.

Informed & Engaged Community: Continuing to complete the Water Storage Facility Rehabilitation Program helps to fulfill GWP’s commitment to the community by making the investments in the City’s water system that were proposed during the Cost of Service Analysis and rate setting process in 2018.

Safe & Healthy Community: The Glendale Fire Department’s ISO Class 1certification is dependent on a robust and well maintained water system. The Water Storage Facility Rehabilitation Program will facilitate required inspections, upgrades and rehabilitation of the City’s water tanks and reservoirs on an “as needed” basis for the duration of the PSAs, helping to provide continued availability of water stored for use in firefighting.

Infrastructure & Mobility: Aging infrastructure in the City’s water system is replaced or rehabilitated on a planned and ongoing basis. The Water Storage Facility Rehabilitation Program is part of the Water System’s Asset Management Program that ensures reliable service now and for future generations.

Sustainability: The Water Storage Facility Rehabilitation Program improves reliability of the recycled water storage facilities which allows GWP to continue serving recycled water to the customers and increase conservation of potable water.

RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute two (2) three-year Professional Services Agreements (PSAs) with two qualified consultants, Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc. and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers, to act on behalf of the City as Owner's Engineers specializing in the design and oversight of City water storage facility rehabilitation projects for a total not-to-exceed amount of $450,000 per consultant for fiscal years 2022-23, 2023-24, and 2024-25. 6 of 131

BACKGROUND
GWP provides water services to over 200,000 residents and businesses in the City. The GWP Water Engineering Section plans, designs, and manages the construction of Water Division capital projects and oversees the delivery of the Water Division Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Additionally, the Water Engineering Section provides planning and support services to the Water Operations, and Water Construction and Metering Sections on operation and maintenance activities. The Water Engineering Section also provides customer and developer assistance for water service planning activities.

One of the ongoing capital improvement programs is the systematic rehabilitation of the City of Glendale’s water storage facilities. To facilitate completion of specialized capital projects like storage facility rehabilitation or replacement, the Water Engineering Section utilizes specialized consulting services like the services provided by Harper & Associates Engineering and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers.

Work will be retained on a per project/task basis. For each project, GWP staff will solicit cost proposals from the two selected firms and, from these, select the best firm for that particular project/task. Selection will be made according to the availability of each consultant, suitability for the work Involved, and price based on the scope of work.

GWP staff will carefully review the content of the proposal and award based on cost and schedule.

Planned projects that the Water Engineering Section will need assistance completing in fiscal year 2022-2023 include:
Emerald Isle 1666 Water Tank Rehabilitation Project
Glendale Recycled Water Tank Rehabilitation Project
On February 3, 2022, GWP staff solicited proposals by issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) which contained detailed instructions on the services being requested, the desired qualifications and experience, and a section specifying how the proposals should be submitted and what information to provide. The RFP also indicated that the proposals would be reviewed and ranked prior to award, and proposers were given a time window to submit questions for clarification noting that all questions and answers would be supplied to each proposer. The solicitation was made to nineteen qualified consulting firms. The criteria and basis of selection of the Owner’s Engineer were as follows:
Completeness of Proposal 5%
Understanding of Needs and Activities of the Scope 10% Qualifications, Capabilities, and Experience of Key Personnel 30% Technical Approach and Methodology 15%
Rate Schedule 30%
References 10%

Total 100%
On February 25, 2022, the due date for proposal submissions, four proposals were received by GWP. The proposals were from the four engineering firms of Cannon Corporation, Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc., NV5, Inc., and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers.

ANALYSIS
For the proposal evaluation, the Water Engineering Section formed a review committee with four engineers and one field superintendent who reviewed each proposal and individually ranked them based on the six weighted evaluation criteria cited in the RFP.

Based on this thorough review and selection process, GWP staff recommends the selection of both Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc. and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers, because they are evaluated as the two highest qualified and most cost competitive consultants for the projects. They both presented outstanding project approaches and showed a great understanding of City’s needs. Having two firms under a PSA will provide flexibility and availability to provide assistance, as well as another opportunity to receive the lowest price as the individual projects/tasks are completed.

For these reasons, GWP staff respectfully recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute two (2) three-year Professional Services Agreements with two consultants, Harper & Associates Engineering, Inc. and Perliter & Ingalsbe Consulting Engineers, to act on behalf of the City as on-call Owner's Engineers specializing in the design and oversight of City water storage facilities rehabilitation projects for a total not-to-exceed amount of $450,000 per consultant for fiscal years 2022-23, 2023-24, and 2024-25.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Infrastructure & Mobility: The projects listed for additional programming, modification of existing programming, and funding changes to the adopted Measure R Sub-Regional Program will improve the City’s roadways and supporting infrastructures for all modes of transportation.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Motion to request for additional programming, modifications to existing programming, and funding changes to the adopted Measure R Sub-regional Program.

BACKGROUND
Measure R is a half-cent sales tax for Los Angeles County that finances new transportation projects and programs. In November 2008, Measure R was approved by two-thirds majority, committing a projected $40 billion to traffic congestion relief and transportation upgrades throughout the County over its 30-year life span. The City’s share of Measure R Sub-regional funds for Highway Operational Improvements is approximately $98.5 million.

The Public Works Department has pursued and received several Measure R transportation-related grants from the Los Angeles County Transportation Authority (Metro) to improve traffic congestion and safety within the City. For Measure R Sub- regional funds, Metro requires project sponsoring agencies to execute a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for those projects funded with local sales tax dollars. A Funding Agreement (FA) must be executed in the first year that funds are available and prior to starting any work on the project. FAs include a general description of the project, the specific work elements to be completed, funding amounts and the source of all funds.

Furthermore, staff currently has numerous projects in planning, design, and construction.

In order to request for new project programming and reprogramming of existing projects on the approved Sub-regional project list, we are required to submit an official request to the Planning and Programming Committee of Metro during the Board’s semi-annual meetings that take place in the fall and spring. The next meeting is expected to take place in July 2022.

3. Programmed Projects Without Executed Funding Agreements (Future Projects):

As part of the current Measure R Highway Sub-Regional Program funds, Metro’s Board has approved $1.8 million for future projects that have been programmed for the next five Fiscal Years, however, staff determined that the Signalization of SR-2 Freeway Ramps at Holly Drive, MR310.36, requires additional effort from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), as the improvements are located in their jurisdiction, therefore City will request Metro to re-program the funds by removing them (Subtotal 3) as follows:

Project Report (PSR-PR) to be able to proceed to the next phase of the project, the development of Plans, Specifications, and Estimates (PS&E).

The additional programming request will allow staff to develop a request for proposals to obtain estimates from professional engineering firms for the development of PS&E for the project. Prior to entering into a professional service agreement for PS&E, staff will return to Council with an update and request for approval and direction.

5. New Project Request:

As part of this program update, the City is also asking for an additional $12.0 million (Subtotal 5) in Measure R Highway Sub-Regional Program funds for new projects as follows:

SUBTOTAL 5 $ 12,000,000
The new project requests for South Central Avenue, North Glendale Avenue, and North Verdugo Road are planned for the next five years as part of the Public Works Department Engineering Division capital improvement program (CIP), and staff is pursuing different funding sources to fund the projects.

All three projects satisfy the Measure R Nexus to Highway Operations Definition, and therefore, are eligible for Measure R Sub-Regional Funds, as some of the many purposes of these projects are to enhance traffic flow, reduce delays, and improve vehicular access to and from the I-210, I-5, SR-134, and SR-2 Freeways. All three project corridors are within a mile from the freeway corridor as defined by the Metro Highway Operation Definition.

Furthermore, Metro passed their new Highway Modernization Policy in June 2021 which focuses on multi-model improvements and allows projects to incorporate complete street improvements into new project requests. Multi-modal components will be studied and design elements will be incorporated into the projects so that all modes of transportation 17 of 131

can benefit from the upgrades, leading to increased safety movements and coordinated progression through the travel corridor and surrounding districts.

Measure R Sub-regional funds do not require a local match from the project sponsor.

Moreover, since 2009, the City’s status of Measure R Highway Sub-Regional Program funds to date are as follows:

Project Status Measure R
Budget
Completed Projects (Subtotal 1) $ 26,677,333
Programmed Projects (Subtotal 2) $ 20,152,000
Programmed/Re-Programmed Future Projects (Subtotal 3) $ 1,200,000 Additional Programming Request for Existing Projects(Subtotal 4) $ 3,500,000 Additional Programming Request for New Projects (Subtotal 5) $ 12,000,000 TOTAL $ 63,529,333

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
During the design phase of all of these projects, staff conducts community outreach with the property owners, occupants, and businesses along the project limits and the public is informed of the project details, construction schedule, future City and contractor notifications, and the impacts of the construction work in the neighborhood. The community outreach events also provide the opportunity to share comments and/or ask questions regarding the project.

Furthermore, outreach on these project will continue to occur through a dedicated website for each project separately. The website pages will introduce the project and the project management team, explain the scope of work and project locations, highlight the project phase, and will provide the public with Staff contact information for questions, discussion and/or input.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Specifications for the Installation of a Citywide Battery Backup System Project 1) Resolution adopting the Specifications for Installation of a Citywide Battery Backup System Project, Specification No. 3921; and directing the City Clerk to Advertise for Bids

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for April 19, 2022 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Specifications have been completed for the installation of a citywide Battery Backup System (“BBS”). Staff respectfully requests the City Council adopt the project specifications and authorize advertising for bids.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Infrastructure & Mobility: Installation of a BBS throughout the City will minimize the effect of brownouts, surges, and electrical outages for traffic signals which maintain operation, mobility and increase safety for all road users.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the resolution adopting the Specifications for the BBS Project, and direct the City Clerk to Advertise for Bids.

BACKGROUND
Traffic Signals are designed to assign right-of-way to conflicting movements and ensure an orderly traffic flow, provide opportunity for pedestrians to cross an intersection, and reduce the number of conflicts between motorists entering intersections from various directions. Therefore, maintaining traffic signal operation during power outages is essential for safety of all roadway users, including motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists.

A BBS ensures that the traffic signal cabinet is powered continuously by providing backup power to traffic equipment and controllers if utility power is lost. It allows the traffic signals to run without disrupting the operation in case of outage incidents. 21 of 131
24 c
3 2
3 1
The purpose of this project is to equip traffic signal cabinets with new and state-of-the art BBS technology to ensure public safety for all road users during utility power loss to maintain intersection operations. All BBS installations will be designed based on the latest California Department of Transportation standards.

Project Locations:

Existing traffic signals will be upgraded with BBS systems at sixty-five signalized intersections throughout the City (See Exhibit 1).

Project Scope of Work:

Installation of a BBS and Side-mount Cabinets (including cabinet foundation).

ANALYSIS
To ensure competitive bids, the City will advertise the project on multiple plan holders’ web sites who publish requests for proposals for projects and distribute the information to their extensive network of consultant, contractor, and construction industry contacts.

The project will also be advertised in a local newspaper, the Glendale Independent, prior to bid opening, as well as on eBidBoard, which is a web enabled data service to the public sector, for the dissemination of the building and construction project proposals to their large number of member contractors and consultants.

Finally, the project bidding documents will also be posted on the City’s website.

The construction of this project is anticipated to begin in August 2022 and is scheduled for completion by January 2023.

The engineer’s estimate for the construction of this project is between $700,000 and $800,000.

Funding for this project has been budgeted from the Measure R Sub-Regional Fund (2550) and Capital Improvement Fund (4010).

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The traffic signal modification benefits to the community will include the following:
Maintain traffic flow during utility power loss; and
Enhance safety for all roadway users including motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists during power incidents such as brownouts, surges, and electrical outages for traffic signals.

The Public Works Department reached out to METRO to obtain Measure R funding to fund the project design and construction. Measure R is a half-cent sales tax for Los Angeles County that finances new transportation projects and programs. In November 2008, Measure R was approved by two-thirds majority, committing a projected $40 billion to traffic relief and transportation upgrades throughout the County over its 30-year life span. The City’s share of Measure R funds for Highway Operational Improvements is approximately $98.5 million dollars.

The installation of a citywide BBS is partially included (up to 35 intersections in downtown Glendale) in Los Angeles County Metro Board’s approved project list in the amount of $2,500,000 as part of the Downtown Glendale Signal Synchronization Project. Staff has executed a Funding Agreement (FA) with METRO for this project under FA Number 9200000000MR310.62.

Furthermore, outreach on this project continues to occur through a dedicated website for the project. The website page introduces the public to the project and to the project team, explains the scope of work and project locations, highlights the project phase, and provides the public with Staff contact information for questions, discussion and/or input.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project is categorically exempt from environmental review because of CEQA Guidelines §§ 15301.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Informed & Engaged Community: This report will provide demographic and other information to both the organization and the community about women and girls in the City of Glendale.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully recommends that City Council approve a motion to accept grant funds in the amount of $25,000 from the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls for the 2022 Women’s Recovery Response Grant, along with a resolution appropriating the funds for the Glendale Commission on the Status of Women's Report on the Status of Women and Girls.

BACKGROUND
Earlier this year, the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls (CCSWG) solicited applications for the Women’s Recovery Response Grant Program to support the existing and emerging needs of women in California who have been disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As the state entity that is tasked with assessing gender equity in multiple issue areas including health, safety, employment, education, and others, the CCSWG is uniquely positioned to support local commissions and the direct service providers they work with to ensure that women’s needs are focused on statewide recovery efforts. The Budget Act of 2021 established the Women’s Recovery Response to provide local assistance with $5 million in one-time funds. The investment will insert structural support and resources into the network of local commissions while the CCSWG continues to act as a statewide convener, facilitator, and oversight administrator.

This is the first grant funding opportunity that the CCSWG has issued to support women impacted by the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CCSWG evaluated more than 630 proposals to support women and girls across all five funding categories, totaling over $62 million in requests.

ANALYSIS
At its last meeting on February 14, 2022, the Glendale Commission on the Status of Women approved a motion to submit an application to the CCSWG for a grant to produce a report on the status of women and girls. The previous 2015-16 City of Glendale Commission on the Status of Women Report of the Status of Women and Girls was produced in conjunction with Mount Saint Mary’s University (MSMU), which annually produces its own annual Report on the Status of Women and Girls in California.

The Glendale Commission has been awarded $25,000 to produce this report, and has expressed a desire to work with MSMU again on this endeavor. The new report will include the same topics as the previous report (along with a few new topics), and include data from the 2015-16 report for comparison, along with a set of pre-pandemic data from 2018-19 and the most current data available, to create 3 sets of data to 29 of 131

compare how women have fared in the past few years, and how they have fared especially since the pandemic.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
This grant funding will be used to produce a report that will help inform the City, other companies, organizations, and agencies about the status of women and girls in Glendale when making policy and programming decisions.

After the report has been published, the Glendale Commission on the Status of Women will engage in an education campaign to share the findings, and will hold community meetings to disseminate this information and to solicit feedback from the community.

The Commission may use the information in the report, along with the collected feedback, to ultimately produce a series of recommendations to the Glendale City Council.

FISCAL IMPACT
The amount of the 2022 Women’s Recovery Response Grant funding awarded to the City of Glendale Commission on the Status of Women is $25,000, which was not included as a part of the FY 2021-22 budget. Therefore, staff is requesting for an appropriation of $25,000 from the Miscellaneous Grant Fund.

The appropriation request is outlined below:

A) The specialized equipment inventoried and presented to the City Council and contained in the Specialized Equipment Use Policy is necessary because there are no reasonable alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

B) The Specialized Equipment Use Policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.

C) The items identified in the Specialized Equipment Use Policy are reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

36 of 131
4 of 5
SECTION 4. The Police Department shall submit an annual report regarding the use of specialized equipment to the City Council, containing the information required in Government Code section 7072, and the City Council shall determine whether each type of equipment identified in the report has complied with the standards for approval set forth in Section 3 A) through D) of this Ordinance.

SECTION 5. Severability.

This Ordinance’s provisions are severable. If any portion of this Ordinance or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid or unconstitutional, that decision does not affect the validity of the Ordinance’s remaining portions and the Ordinance’s application to other persons and circumstances. The City Council declares that it would have passed the remainder of this Ordinance without the invalid or unconstitutional provision.

SECTION 6. Urgency Finding. The City Council declares this Ordinance to be an urgency measure to take effect immediately upon its adoption pursuant to Article VI, section 7 of the City of Glendale Charter.

AB 481 became effective on January 1, 2022 and requires a law enforcement agency to obtain approval from its governing body of a military equipment use policy by ordinance prior to the agency funding, acquiring, or using military equipment. Specifically, AB 481 states: “No later than May 1, 2022, a law enforcement agency seeking to continue the use of any military equipment that was acquired prior to January 1, 2022, shall commence a governing body approval process in accordance with this section.” (Government Code section 7071(a)(2))
The Glendale Police Department has been working diligently to prepare the required policy and inventory of specialized equipment. Given the extensive requirements for the policy and inventory as well as the notice requirements, the matter could not be brought to the City Council in time to accommodate an ordinance taking effect in 30 days.

It is in the City’s and the public’s best interest to ensure compliance with AB 481 as any delay would prevent the Glendale Police Department from adequately protecting the public 37 of 131
5 of 5
and maintaining community safety. Adopting this Ordinance to take effect immediately will ensure that the City and its Police Department are equipped to preserve the public peace, health, safety and welfare of this community.

SECTION 7. Effective Date. Pursuant to Article VI, section 7 of the City of Glendale Charter, this Ordinance shall take effect immediately upon its adoption by four-fifths of the City Council.

SECTION 8. Certification. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City’s book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.

Passed and adopted by a four-fifths vote on this ___ day of ___________, 2022.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Pursuant to Assembly Bill 481 (“AB 481”), the Glendale Police Department must obtain the City Council's approval to continue the use of any “military equipment,” as defined, by an ordinance adopting an equipment use policy. The equipment identified as “military equipment” in AB 481 is referred to as “Specialized Equipment" in this report and in the policy, as many of the items are not necessarily military items. If the proposed urgency ordinance is adopted, AB 481 requires that it be reviewed annually by the City Council. 39 of 131

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Informed & Engaged Community: The Specialized Equipment Use Policy provides the public with information about the funding, acquisition, and use of specialized equipment by the Police Department.
Safe & Healthy Community: The equipment and items discussed in this report enhance the safety of the public and officers. This equipment may be used to assist the Police Department in de-escalating intense situations or bringing volatile conditions and critical incidents to a safe resolution.

RECOMMENDATION
Introduce the proposed urgency ordinance approving the Glendale Police Department’s Specialized Equipment Use Policy.

BACKGROUND
On September 30, 2021, the Governor approved AB 481. This bill became effective on January 1, 2022, and adds Government Code sections 7070 through 7075 regarding the funding, acquisition, and use of “military equipment," as defined, by law enforcement agencies. The equipment identified as “military equipment” in AB 481 is referred to as “Specialized Equipment” in this report and in the policy, as many of the items are not necessarily used by the military. AB 481 requires a law enforcement agency to obtain the approval of its governing body, through the adoption of a policy, by ordinance at a regular meeting held pursuant to the Brown Act, before taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, or use of such equipment. The new law also allows the City Council to approve the funding, acquisition, or use of specialized equipment within its jurisdiction only if it determines that the equipment meets specified standards.

ANALYSIS
AB 481 defines “military equipment” as:
(1) Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial or ground vehicles. (2) Mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicles or armored personnel carriers. However, police versions of standard consumer vehicles are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
(3) High mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWV), commonly referred to as Humvees, two and one-half-ton trucks, five-ton trucks, or wheeled vehicles that have a breaching or entry apparatus attached.

However, unarmored all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and motorized dirt bikes are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
(4) Tracked armored vehicles that provide ballistic protection to their occupants and utilize a tracked system instead of wheels for forward motion.
(5) Command and control vehicles that are either built or modified to facilitate the operational control and direction of public safety units. (6) Weaponized aircraft, vessels, or vehicles of any kind. 40 of 131
37 a
3 2
1 3
(7) Battering rams, slugs, and breaching apparatuses that are explosive in nature. However, items designed to remove a lock, such as bolt cutters, or a handheld ram designed to be operated by one person, are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
(8) Firearms of .50 caliber or greater. However, standard-issue shotguns are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
(9) Ammunition of .50 caliber or greater. However, standard-issue shotgun ammunition is specifically excluded from this subdivision. (10) Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than .50 caliber, including assault weapons as defined in Sections 30510 and 30515 of the Penal Code, with the exception of standard-issue service weapons and ammunition of less than .50 caliber that are issued to officers, agents, or employees of a law enforcement agency or a state agency. (11) Any firearm or firearm accessory that is designed to launch explosive projectiles.
(12) “Flashbang” grenades and explosive breaching tools, “tear gas,” and “pepper balls,” excluding standard, service-issued handheld pepper spray. (13) Taser Shockwave, microwave weapons, water cannons, and the Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD).
(14) The following projectile launch platforms and their associated munitions: 40mm projectile launchers, “bean bag,” rubber bullet, and specialty impact munition (SIM) weapons.
(15) Any other equipment as determined by a governing body or a state agency to require additional oversight.

The items included in the statutory definition are not necessarily items used by the military. In fact, some items are standard issue equipment for police officers. Thus, the equipment listed in AB 481 is referred to in this report and in the Police Department’s policy as “Specialized Equipment.”
Under AB 481, law enforcement agencies must obtain approval from their governing bodies, by an ordinance adopting an equipment use policy for the above-listed items, prior to:
Requesting military equipment made available pursuant to Section 2576a of Title 10 of the United States Code.

This provision deals with transferring defense property to federal and state agencies for law enforcement activities. For over ten years, the Glendale Police Department has not acquired property from the Defense Department under the 1033 Program.
Seeking funds for military equipment, including, but not limited to, applying for a grant, soliciting or accepting private, local, state, or federal funds, in- kind donations, or other donations or transfers.
41 of 131
47 a
3 2
1 3
Acquiring military equipment either permanently or temporarily, including by borrowing or leasing.
Collaborating with another law enforcement agency in the deployment or other use of military equipment within the territorial jurisdiction of the governing body.
Using any new or existing military equipment for a purpose, in a manner, or by a person not previously approved by the governing body pursuant to this chapter.
Soliciting or responding to a proposal for, or entering into an agreement with, any other person or entity to seek funds for, apply to receive, acquire, use, or collaborate in the use of, military equipment.
Acquiring military equipment through any means not provided set forth above.

Attached as “Exhibit A” is the Glendale Police Department’s Specialized Equipment Use Policy. The Specialized Equipment Use Policy includes an equipment inventory. The Police Department uses the noted equipment to keep the City of Glendale, its residents, businesses, and visitors safe. Additionally, the specialized equipment is integral to assisting incident commanders in bringing dynamic and unpredictable incidents to a safe resolution. The inventory includes less than lethal options that are standard issue equipment for police officers. Department staff train all personnel to properly use and handle specialized equipment issued.

The policy complies with AB 481 in that it includes the following required provisions:
(1) A description of each type of military equipment, the quantity sought, its capabilities, expected lifespan, and product descriptions from the manufacturer of the military equipment.
(2) The purposes and authorized uses for which the law enforcement agency proposes to use each type of military equipment. (3) The fiscal impact of each type of military equipment, including the initial costs of obtaining the equipment and estimated annual costs of maintaining the equipment.
(4) The legal and procedural rules that govern each authorized use. (5) The training, including any course required by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training, that must be completed before any officer is allowed to use each specific type of military equipment to ensure the 42 of 131
57 a
3 2
1 3
complete protection of the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties and complete adherence to the military equipment use policy. (6) The mechanisms to ensure compliance with the military equipment use policy, including which independent persons or entities have oversight authority and, if applicable, what legally enforceable sanctions are put in place for violations of the policy.
(7) The procedures by which members of the public may register complaints or concerns or submit questions about the use of each specific type of military equipment, and how the law enforcement agency will ensure that each complaint, concern, or question receives a response in a timely manner.

Under AB 481, the City Council may approve the funding, acquisition, or use of the Glendale Police Department’s specialized equipment only if it determines all of the following:
(A) The specialized equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety. (B) The proposed Specialized Equipment Use Policy will safeguard the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties. (C) If purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost-effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.
(D) Prior equipment use complied with the specialized equipment use policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying specialized equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance. (Government Code section 7071 (d)(1))
Staff believes the Specialized Equipment Use Policy and the equipment listed in the inventory satisfy the above standards.

It should be noted that the Specialized Equipment Use Policy includes a provision regarding outside law enforcement agencies. This provision requires law enforcement agencies that provide mutual aid to the City of Glendale to comply with their respective military use policies when providing such assistance.

In addition, the Specialized Equipment Use Policy expressly provides that the Police Department intends to maintain the equipment supply levels noted. The policy authorizes the Chief of Police to provide police officers with standard-issue specialized equipment and to acquire and maintain the appropriate inventory for expendable specialized 43 of 131
67 a
3 2
1 3
equipment in accordance with the City’s Purchasing Policy. Moreover, the policy allows the Police Department to order, replenish, replace, and/or renew its inventory. The Police Department intends to replace a portion of its rifles upon approval of the policy. Absent exigent circumstances, the Police Department will obtain City Council approval to acquire specialized equipment not listed in the inventory.

The Police Department is not seeking to purchase any new equipment with this report.

Purchase of the items currently in possession of the Police Department have been approved during the annual budget process and comply with the City's Purchasing Policy.

If the proposed urgency Ordinance regarding the Specialized Equipment Use Policy is adopted, it will be subject to annual City Council review to determine whether the standards set forth above have been met based on a yearly Specialized Equipment report.

AB 481 requires publication of the Specialized Equipment Use Policy and the inventory list on the Police Department’s website at least 30 days prior to any public hearing concerning the equipment at issue. The Police Department posted the policy on March 11, 2022, thus complying with the posting requirement.

Staff recommends that the proposed ordinance be introduced and adopted as an urgency measure in light of the language in AB 481 that requires the governing body approval process to commence by May 1, 2022.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The Police Department conducted a meeting with the Glendale Police Chief’s Advisory Panel on March 9, 2022, to discuss the Specialized Equipment Use Policy.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. Future costs to restock inventory and maintain equipment will be planned for during the Police Department’s annual budget process.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA/NEPA)
The ordinance is not a project within the meaning of section 15378 of the California Environment Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines because it has no potential to result in a physical change in the environment, directly or indirectly. (Cal. Code of Reg. 15378(b)(5)) This ordinance is also exempt under CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Infrastructure & Mobility: The electric bus charging infrastructure will charge five replacement Beeline buses that will provide continued safe, efficient, and reliable transportation services.

Sustainability: The purchase of electric bus charging infrastructure to power five battery- electric buses improves the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions for a useful life of the chargers.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council approve a Motion for accepting the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) LCTOP grant funds in the amount of $138,788 and a Resolution authorizing the execution of the certifications and assurances and authorized agent forms for the LCTOP for the following project: Electric Bus Charging Infrastructure.

BACKGROUND
In 2014, the California Legislature approved Senate Bill 862 created the LCTOP. The LCTOP receives five percent of the annual California Cap-and-Trade Program proceeds from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. Caltrans administers the LCTOP in coordination with Air Resource Board (ARB) and the State Controller's Office (SCO).

The LCTOP provides operating and capital assistance for transit agencies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve mobility, with priority on serving disadvantaged communities. Eligible projects include new or expanded bus or rail services, expand intermodal transit facilities, and equipment acquisition, fueling, maintenance, and other costs to operate those services or facilities.

Each year, the SCO allocates the LCTOP funds directly to transit agencies. Glendale Beeline, a Tier II Operator, submits operating statistics to the SCO. Glendale received an allocation of LCTOP funding in 2020-21 ($59,095) and 2021-22 ($138,788) that will purchase bus charging infrastructure to power five battery-electric buses.

ANALYSIS
The City Council approved grant and local funding to purchase five replacement battery- electric buses at the January 11, 2022 meeting. The LCTOP and other grant funding will pay for three electric bus chargers needed to power the five battery-electric buses. The City of Glendale programed the FY 2020-21 and the FY 2021-22 LCTOP allocations specifically to install up to three electric bus chargers to power the five battery-electric buses. The battery-electric buses and charging infrastructure will be located at the Beeline Bus Maintenance facility, located in a disadvantaged community.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The installation of electric bus chargers to power the replacement of five CNG buses with battery-electric buses that have reached their useful life will provide continued safe, efficient, and reliable transportation services. In addition, the five battery-electric buses 84 of 131

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Action
Approved for April 19, 2022 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ARB
ARB Inc. (ARB) was awarded a contract through competitive bidding and has provided exceptional service to the Grayson Power Plant and Scholl Canyon Landfill Gas Plant since 2019. GWP is seeking approval to amend the current contract to increase the overall not-to-exceed amount to $1,050,000 and extend the term by two more years.

Ethos
Ethos provides Balance of Plant (“BOP”) maintenance and field services for any rotating equipment at the Grayson Power Plant, as well as the Water Department’s offsite pumping facilities. The repair and maintenance of offsite pumping facilities is similar in nature to the repair and maintenance of the Grayson facility and, accordingly, there are efficiencies and economies of scale achieved by including the repair and maintenance of pumping facilities in the contract.

GWP seeks City Council’s approval to execute an amendment to increase the overall not-to-exceed amount by $200,000, for a new not to exceed contract amount of $700,000, and extend the term of contract by two years. 90 of 131

Cor-ray
Cor-ray Painting Co. (COR-RAY) was awarded a contract through a competitive bidding process, and has provided exceptional industrial painting service to the Grayson Power Plant. GWP is seeking approval to amend the current contract to increase the overall not-to-exceed amount by $150,000, for a new not-to-exceed contract amount of $570,000 and extend the term by two more years.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Infrastructure & Mobility:

ARB
Ongoing mechanical and field services are required in order for GWP to maintain its electric generation infrastructure to serve the City of Glendale.

Ethos
GWP will be able to provide a more reliable source of electric generation and maintain water pumping facilities used to supply water for the City of Glendale.

Cor-ray
Infrastructure & Mobility: It is necessary to maintain the Grayson structures and equipment that are exposed to the elements. The metal surfaces of the equipment need to be maintained in order to protect the environment and prevent corrosion.

RECOMMENDATION
ARB
Approve the Resolution to dispense with further competitive bidding, and authorize a two-year extension of Contract No. 8000616 with ARB Inc., and a $250,000 increase in the not-to-exceed contract amount to provide continued labor, equipment, and materials for specialized mechanical and field services for the Grayson Power Plant and the Scholl Canyon Landfill Gas Plant.

Ethos
Approve the Resolution to dispense with further competitive bidding, and authorize a two-year extension of Contract No. 8000832 with Ethos and a $200,000 increase in the not-to-exceed contract amount to provide “as-needed” BOP maintenance and field services for GPP and GWP Offsite Pumping Facilities.

Cor-ray
Approve the Resolution to dispense with further competitive bidding, and authorize a two-year extension of Contract No. 8000803 with Cor-ray Painting Co., and a $150,000 increase in the not-to-exceed contract amount to provide continued labor, equipment, and materials for industrial painting services for the Grayson Power Plant. 91 of 131

BACKGROUND
ARB
In July 9, 2019, following a competitive bid process for which the Notice of Inviting Bids was advertised in the local paper and on EBidboard, as well as directly sent to seven firms, only one bid was received from ARB. The City Council awarded ARB a three- year contract to furnish labor, equipment and materials for specialized mechanical and field services for the Grayson Power Plant and Scholl Canyon Landfill Gas Plant per Specification No. 3804. Since the execution of the contract, ARB has provided the following services, which have supported the availability of the units at the Grayson Power Plant especially during the summer peak demand:
Units 8A and 8B/C Gas Turbine Installation - Due to staff shortages it was necessary for ARB to assist and expedite the return of the Units availability for summer peak demand. Cost: $90,500.
Unit 4 Air Preheater Overhaul – Necessary repair for safety and increase efficiency of the boiler. Cost: $284,000.
Units 4 and 5 Boiler Superheater Tube Repair – Necessary for safe operations of the Units during power generation. Cost: $145,000.
Units 4 and 5 Cooling Tower Frame Repairs – The metal frames were rebuilt as the metal frames have been irreparably deteriorated so much that the support system for the cooling tower fans, motors and gearboxes has weakened to the point of unsafe operations. The Cooling Towers are vital in efficient operations of the steam turbines that the unit will not be available if the cooling towers are unavailable. Cost: $38,500.
Units 1 and 2 Circulating Line Pipe Repair – The 36-inch Circulating Line Pipe was corroded and required replacement for operations. This corrosion made Units 1, 2, 8A and 8BC unavailable and reduced the power generation of the Grayson Power Plant by 50%. Cost: $220,000.

In addition, ARB provided services for the Scholl Canyon Landfill Gas Pipeline Purge and Closure, which was necessary for the Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Material Safety Administration’s regulatory compliance, at a cost of about $16,000.

The contract term will expire on September 10, 2022 which would be right around the time of the 2022 summer peak demand. GWP’s goal is to keep all units operational and available until the Grayson Repowering Project (Repowering) is underway. Thereafter, continued services will be needed to maintain Unit 9. In order for ARB to provide continued services as needed, the contract amount, as well as the contract term, would need to be amended.

Ethos
In 2019, GWP undertook a competitive bid process for the Balance of Plant (“BOP”) inspection and repairs on an “as needed” basis for the Grayson Power Plant and other facilities. The City received two bids that were very close in price. Upon review, it was determined that both bids were non-responsive due to incomplete pricing, material 92 of 131
48 b

6 5
deviation from bidding requirements, and exceptions taken to the City’s terms and conditions. On December 10, 2019, the City Council dispensed with further competitive bidding, and authorized staff to negotiate with both bidders for award of a two-year contract in an amount not to exceed $350,000. Following negotiation, the contract was awarded to Ethos.

On April 27, 2021, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to increase the not-to- exceed contract amount to $500,000. The increase was due to the near exhaustion of funds due to services were rendered for the Unit 9 Generator Bearing Inspection and Repair, as well as the Unit 9 Gas Compressor Overhaul.

The contract term is expiring. Extending the contract term and increasing the contract amount will provide continued “as needed” field services for the Grayson Power Plant Units and for the Water Department’s offsite pumping facilities.

Cor-ray
On January 21, 2020, following a competitive bid process, the City Council awarded a two-year contract to Cor-ray Painting Co. to furnish labor, equipment and materials for Industrial Painting Services for the Grayson Power Plant, per Specification No. 3798R, in the amount not to exceed $262,960. On May 10, 2021, the City Council authorized an amendment to increase the not-to-exceed contract amount to $420,000.

The contract term expires on June 4, 2022. There are insufficient funds remaining in the contract to support any services that are necessary for operational repairs at the Grayson Power Plant such as 1) Unit 4 Circulating Water Pipe Lining Repair, 2) Unit 9 Stack Repainting and/or, 3) any discoverable repairs. Extending the contract term and increasing the contract amount would provide for continued “as needed” industrial painting services for the Grayson Power Plant.

ANALYSIS
ARB
ARB Inc. has provided critical support keeping the aging units at Grayson Power Plant functional to provide power as needed during summer peaks. The Grayson Power Plant Units, other than Unit 9, are well past their design life and experience frequent mechanical failures. The term of the ARB contract will expire on September 10, 2022 which is about the time the summer demand peaks. The not-to-exceed contract amount is close to exhaustion. If the contract is not amended to increase the not-to-exceed amount prior to the time the contract term ends, there will be a high possibility that reliability for the units at Grayson Power Plant maintained under the contract, may not be supported.

In the near term, the following work is needed to keep the units operational:
Additional Units 4 and 5 Boiler Superheater Tube Repairs (estimated cost:
$80,000)
Units 8A and 8BC High Pressure Boiler Valve Replacement (estimated cost:
93 of 131
58 b
3 2
6 5
$60,000)
Unit 5 Cooling Tower Circulating Water Line Repair (estimated cost: $80,000) It is in the City’s interest to extend the term of the contract with ARB so that the Grayson units, maintained under the contract, can be serviced when needed prior to repowering as well as so that Unit 9 can be continued to be serviced during repowering. GWP recommends extending the term of the contract for an additional two-years and increase the not-to-exceed amount by another $250,000.00. ARB would continue to provide the services on an “as needed” basis. The contract can be terminated for convenience by the City at any time.

Article VI, Section 9 of the Glendale Charter authorizes the Council to dispense with competitive bidding when it finds that it is in the City’s best interest to do so. It is in the City’s best interest to dispense with competitive bidding and extend the existing contract with ARB, Inc. for the following reasons:
There is insufficient time to undertake a bidding process, award and execute contracts, and mobilize a new contractor in time to complete necessary repair work to keep the Grayson Units functional for the 2022 summer’s peak period. The services being provided are highly specialized and familiarity with the older and newer units is necessary. ARB Inc. has a large base of direct-hire craft with specialized expertise in their field which has proven many times to be valuable while working on Grayson Power Plant repairs.
Previously, the bid process for this service resulted in only one bid proposal. In addition to the necessary time to undertake another bid process, it may be possible that only one bid proposal will be received for the same “as needed” services.

Ethos
If the contract term is not extended and the not-to-exceed amount is not increased, reliability for the units at the Grayson Power Plant and GWP offsite pumping facilities maintained under the contract may be not supported. GWP has essential repairs that need to be done to maintain the equipment in service, including but not limited to major rotating equipment like boiler feed pumps; reciprocating air compressors; large gear boxes for cooling tower fans, and high flow capacity vertical pumps that cannot wait for a new competitive process to be completed. In the near term, the following work is necessary to ensure continued reliability of the units at the GPP:
Units 8A, 8BC, 1 and 2 Preventative Maintenance
Unit 9 Service Bulletin
Unit 9 Gas Compressor B Overhaul
Over the remaining proposed extended term of the contract, Ethos would provide services for Unit 9, which will remain operational and provide critical power during the repowering project, as well as for the Water Department’s offsite pumping facilities. The contract can be terminated for convenience by the City at any time.

Per Specification No. 3805, Ethos provides rotating equipment services such as, but not limited to, gas turbines; steam turbines; generators; pumps; compressors, gear boxes and fans. This rotating equipment is critical to power generation as well as water distribution. The Grayson Power Plant units, other than Unit 9, are well past their design life and experience frequent mechanical failures. 95 of 131

It is in the City’s interest to extend the term of the contract with Ethos so that the Grayson units and GWP’s offsite pump facilities, maintained under the contract, can continue to be available when needed until the Grayson Repowering Project is underway. GWP recommends extending the term of the contract for an additional two years and increase the not-to-exceed amount by $200,000.00. Ethos would continue to provide the services at the same rates as were originally bid in 2019.

Article VI, Section 9 of the Glendale Charter authorizes the Council to dispense with competitive bids when it finds that it is in the City’s best interest to do so. It is in the City’s best interest to dispense with competitive bidding, and extend the existing contract with Ethos for the following reasons:
There is insufficient time to complete a bidding process, execute a new contract, and mobilize a new contractor to conduct the work that is necessary to keep the Grayson units operational during the 2022 summer peak.
A second year extension is recommended as GWP anticipates it may be hard to get a better pricing when there are very limited on “as needed” work that could be anticipated at the GPP, as well as at Water Department’s offsite pumping facilities. GWP’s requirement that that the vendors provide 24/7 response and deployment may further limit the pool of potential candidates. The work of inspecting, maintaining, and overhauling of the equipment at the aforementioned facilities, including the very old equipment at GPP, is highly specialized and very few companies are qualified to do the work.

Cor-ray
The term of the COR-RAY contract will expire on June 4, 2022. The Grayson Power Plant is anticipated to run with all units available through at least the third quarter of 2022, and Unit 9 will remain operational after 2022. If the contract is amended to increase the not-to-exceed amount prior to the contract’s expiration, there is a high possibility that some generating units may not be available for the summer peak. In the near term, the following work is necessary:
Unit 4 Circulating Water Pipe Lining Repair - Necessary to efficiently exchange heat during operation of the unit. This work entails painting, repair of concrete mortar cracks or plastic lining of the pipes to prevent the pipes from breaking down. If there are cracks in the heat exchange system, the system will not run efficiently or not run at all.
Unit 9 Stack Painting – Necessary to maintain the structural integrity of the stack and extend the life of the stack and the Unit itself. If the stack is not maintained, it may become structurally compromised and the Unit will not be available.

It is in the City’s interest to extend the term of the contract with COR-RAY so that the Grayson units can continue to be supported and available when needed. GWP recommends extending the term of the contract for an additional two years and increasing the not-to-exceed amount by $150,000.00. COR-RAY would continue to provide the services at the rates specified in the contract. The contract can be terminated by the City for convenience at any time.

ALTERNATIVES
ARB
Alternative 1: Adopt a resolution dispensing with further competitive bidding on the grounds that it is in the City’s best interest, and authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract amendment with ARB Inc. to increase it by an amount not-to-exceed $250,000 and extend the term by two years to provide continued mechanical and field services for the Grayson Power Plant and other facilities.

Alternative 2: Do not dispense with competitive bidding, and do not authorize an extension or amendment of Contract 8000616 with ARB, Inc.

Alternative 3: Adopt a motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an amendment to increase the not-to-exceed funding for the Contract with ARB, Inc., but do not extend the contract term beyond its expiration on September 10, 2022. If the City Council adopts this alternative, it is recommended that the contract amount be increased by an amount not to exceed $180,000 to fund any needed services through the end of the contract term.

Ethos
Alternative 1: Adopt a Resolution dispensing with further competitive bidding on the grounds that it is in the City’s best interest, and authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract amendment with Ethos to increase it an amount not-to-exceed $200,000, and extend the term by two years to provide “BOP” maintenance and field services for the Grayson Power Plant and GWP offsite pumping facilities.

Alternative 2: Do not dispense with competitive bidding, and do not authorize an extension or amendment of the Contract with Ethos. Not having a contract prior to summer peak demand will reduce the reliability of the Units to generate when necessary.

Cor-ray
Alternative 1: Adopt a Resolution dispensing with further competitive bidding on the grounds that it is in the City’s best interest, and authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract amendment with Cor-ray Painting Co. to increase the Contract by an amount not-to-exceed $150,000 and extend the term by two years to provide “as needed” industrial painting services for the Grayson Power Plant.

Alternative 2: Do not dispense with competitive bidding, and do not authorize an extension or amendment of the Contract with Cor-ray Painting Co. 100 of 131

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Action Item
Approved for April 12, 2022 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Consulate General of Armenia in Los Angeles would like to donate a monument in recognition of the Armenian Genocide to the City of Glendale. The proposed monument is a stone sculpture of the Forget-Me-Not flower, which has become the symbol of the memory of the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman government. The proposed monument would be located along East Harvard Street, at the terminus of Artsakh Avenue, just west of the main entrance of the Central Library.

The proposed monument meets the requirements outlined in the Public Monument and Memorial Plaque Policy. Furthermore, the Arts & Culture Commission recommends approval of the monument.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Arts & Culture: The proposed monument would enhance the community’s diverse cultural values and heritage.

RECOMMENDATION
That City Council consider the adoption of a Motion to approve the acceptance and installation of the proposed monument in recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the Consulate General of Armenia, to be located in front of the Central Library at 222 E.

Harvard Street.

BACKGROUND
On March 1, 2022, the City Council approved a Public Monument and Memorial Bench Plaque Policy (adopted by Resolution, No. 22-30), which establishes the criteria and process for the placement of Public Monuments and Memorial Bench Plaques sponsored by individuals and/or groups (whether they are private parties, non-profit organizations, or others) on City property.

Proposed Monument
The Consulate General of Armenia in Los Angeles reached out to the City Manager’s Office with a request to donate a monument in recognition of the Armenian Genocide to the City of Glendale. The proposed monument is a stone sculpture of the Forget-Me-Not flower, which has become the symbol of the memory of the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman government. Renderings of the proposed monument are included as Exhibit 1 of this report.

The monument will be produced by Stone Service, a company in Armenia that creates monuments. The Consul General would like to have this monument erected in the United States to strengthen Armenian-American relations, and to have a memorial for Armenian Genocide victims.

This would be the second monument of its kind, the first of which was created and erected in Petah Tikva, Israel. The Armenian community of Israel entrusted Stone Service with the creation of this monument for the 105th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. The municipality of Petah Tikva provided a space in a community park in their city, and the monument was erected in January 2020. Two photos of the monument in Petah Tikva, one taken during the day, and one at night, is included as Exhibit 2 of this report.

The Consulate has left the ultimate recommendation of a proposed location to staff, but asked that the location be a prominent space that is visible to passerby and not deep in a park. Staff is recommending that the statue be placed along Harvard Street, west of the main entrance of the Glendale Central Library, at the terminus of Artsakh Avenue. A map of the proposed location is included as Exhibit 3. Placing the monument at this location will require the removal of existing concrete, as well as the relocation of six bicycle racks in front of the library.

The base of the monument would be 8.5 ft. wide, with the flower portion of the monument being 5.9 ft. wide and 5.9 ft. tall. The overall footprint of the monument, including the planter that would go around the monument, would be a circle with a 14.4 ft. wide diameter. Exhibit 4 shows the scale of the monument, as proposed. It should be noted that the size of the statue can be scaled/modified to fit the space, but is appropriate in size as proposed.

ANALYSIS
The proposed monument is consistent with the City’s Public Monument Policy in that it has an identifiable connection to the cultural makeup of the City. Glendale is home to the largest diaspora of Armenians per capita. Having a monument dedicated to the memory of the victims of the Armenian Genocide of 1915 would help educate the community and the public on the history of the Armenian-American people, and empower individuals to embrace cultural diversity and speak out against prejudice and injustice.

Furthermore, this monument meets the City’s Public Monument criteria and requirements in the following manner:

1. Appropriateness: The monument is sensitive to social, historical, and other relevant contexts, and is suitable for all ages.

2. Compatibility: The scale and design of the monument is compatible with the location in front of the Glendale Central Library, which houses the ReflectSpace Gallery, an exhibition space designed to explore and reflect on genocides, human and civil rights violations. Furthermore, it is adjacent to Artsakh Avenue, which was renamed a few years ago in recognition of the thriving Armenian- American community in the City of Glendale.

3. Impact on Use of Public Space: The location of the monument is set back from the sidewalk and will not negatively impact the existing right-of-way. It may become a gathering point for the community on April 24, which is Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day.

4. Aesthetics: The monument will be constructed of stone, with a height and width of appropriate scale for the proposed location. The high-quality stone construction of the monument will ensure a durable and long-lasting tribute to the victims of the Armenian Genocide.

5. Maintenance and Insurance: The requestor will enter into a written agreement with the City and will meet the requirements as outlined in the policy.

6. Safety: The design of the monument has no overhangs, projections, or parts that may become loose, and thus, presents no obvious safety hazards to the public. 122 of 131

The proposed Armenian Genocide Monument is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review as a Class 1 Existing Facilities project for the operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing facilities pursuant to the California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15301.
