Adopt Resolution No. 8427.
DISCUSSION:
UASI program funds address the unique planning, organization, equipment, training, and exercise needs of high-threat, high-density urban areas, and assists them in building an enhanced and sustainable capacity to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism. The UASI grants are administered by the L.A. Mayor’s office and they recently called for project proposals for grant year 2022.

Vigilant is the sole provider of equipment for our existing automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) network within the City, utilized by the Police Department, to increase the level of safety for the community and City staff. The system allows information to be provided to officers in the field, in real time, that they might otherwise be unaware of, and provides investigators with an additional potential solution to identify a potential suspect of a crime.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
UASI Grant Program funds help local law enforcement to address the needs of their committees in high-threat, high-density urban areas, and assists them enhanced their capacity to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, crime and acts of terrorism.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Police Department (sub-recipient) will receive grant funding, via the City of Los Angeles (grant host), in the amount of $87,999.70. Funding will be ‘passthrough’ and therefore will have no impact on the general fund.

Safety should be simple. By combining sophisticated
license plate recognition (LPR) with consumer-grade
ease of installation the L6Q camera system enables
law enforcement agencies and businesses alike to
better ensure the safety and security of the people
they serve.
This next generation of quick-deploy LPR
camera includes a new, high-capacity,
swappable internal battery along with solar
and AC/DC direct line power options.
Additionally, configuration and activation takes
place from your Android or iOS smartphone using
our Mobile Companion application.
On-board the L6Q, radar-based triggering can be
configured for only vehicles moving at specific
speed thresholds and directions of travel to focus on
only the data you’re interested in. The long-range,
integrated infrared (IR) illumination and a new
starlight sensor enable you to scan vehicles even in
complete darkness. And lastly, a tamper-proof design
and paintable, removable shroud makes the L6Q
physically secure while blending in with
its surroundings.
Like all of our license plate recognition camera
systems, the L6Q seamlessly connects with our
suite of software solutions. This includes Vigilant
PlateSearch where your data is retained and
shared based on your preferences, as well as
operationalized by our patented analytics and
search capabilities.

MONTH IN THE CITY OF HAWTHORNE, CALIFORNIA
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff Recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8432 DISCUSSION:
National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 to October 15) recognizes the contributions made and the important presence of Hispanic and Latino Americans to the United States and celebrates their heritage and culture. September 15 is the starting point for the celebration because it is the anniversary of independence of five Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September 18, respectively. In September 1968, Congress authorized President Lyndon B. Johnson to proclaim National Hispanic Heritage Week, observed during the week that included September 15 and September 16. Congress expanded the observance in 1989 to a month long celebration (September 15 through October 15) of the culture and traditions of those who trace their roots to Spain, Mexico and the Spanish-speaking nations of Central America, South America and the Caribbean.
Hispanics have had a profound and positive influence on our country through their strong commitment to family, faith, hard work and service. Hispanics have enhanced and shaped our national character with centuries-old traditions that reflect the multiethnic and multicultural customs of their community. The Hispanic population of the United States currently constitutes a one fifth of the nation's total population making people of Hispanic origin the nation's largest
ethnic or racial minority.

SUBJECT:
Resolution No. 8433, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hawthorne, California, Consenting to the Assignment of the Through-The-Fence Agreement and Concession Agreement for Aviation Fueling Operations From the Chapter 7 Trustee in the Bankruptcy Case of Hawthorne Hangar Operations LP to 3507 JNA LLC.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council Adopt Resolution No. 8433, Consenting to the Assignment of the Through-The-Fence Agreement and Concession Agreement for Aviation Fueling Operations From the Chapter 7 Trustee in the Bankruptcy Case of Hawthorne Hangar Operations LP to 3507 JNA LLC., including the related Estoppel Certificates and authorize the City Manager to execute all related documents.
DISCUSSION:
Hawthorne Hangar Operations, L.P. (“HHO”) filed for bankruptcy protection in March 2023 (case no. 2:23-bk-11789-BR). HHO owns a hangar facility at the airport. Recently, the bankruptcy court approved the sale of the bankruptcy estate’s (“Estate”) rights, title, and interest in and to the HHO hangar facility, including the fuel farm and its rights to the Through-the-Fence (“TTF”) and the Concession Agreement for Aviation Fueling Operations (“Fueling Agreement”) (collectively, the “Property”) to 3507 JNA LLC for the total sum of $13,350,000.
The largest creditor of HHO, Grand Pacific Financial Corporation, agreed to a settlement with the Trustee to a discount of $1.2 Million of its total claim if the sale of the hangar along with TTF and Fueling Agreements closes by September 15, 2023.
The City entered into the TTF Agreement with HHO in 2009. The hangar is located at 3507 Jack
Northrop Ave. and sits outside the airport fence. The TTF Agreement allows the airplanes in the hangar a direct access to the airport grounds with the lease of a tarmac area immediately in front of the hangar. The agreement required HHO to pay the City $18,000 annually for the lease of the tarmac.
The Fueling Agreement was executed in 2017. The agreement allowed HHO to sell fuel at the airport until February 2032. Under the Fueling Agreement, HHO was to pay the City the greater of fourteen cents per gallon or the fee per gallon for fuel sold by other authorized tenants at the airport. The only other authorized tenant to sell fuel at the airport is HA LLC, the holder of the airport’s Master Ground Lease.
Both the TTF and the Fuel Agreement require the assignment of HHO’s rights under the agreements to be approved by the City. However, the City cannot unreasonably withhold its consent since the new owners are well qualified to run a hangar operations business.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
A new business in the City.
1.3 Develop a business support and development collaborative that interfaces directly with existing small and large businesses (support and retention), identifies key sectors (tech, hotels, restaurants) and energetically recruits new businesses in those sectors (attraction), and coordinates resources to assist growing businesses (expansion). Establish partnerships with entities that can work toward City goals and objectives. Create a database of businesses in the City to track interactions.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

Mastan, as the chapter 7 trustee (“Trustee”) of HHO’s bankruptcy estate (“Estate”), whose duties under the Bankruptcy Code include, among other things, monetizing the assets of the bankruptcy estate for the benefit of the its creditors; and
WHEREAS, the Trustee embarked upon the sale of the properties of the Estate including the HHO hangar facility located at 3507 Jack Northrop Ave, the fuel farm, and the TTF and the Fueling Agreements (collectively, the “Property”); and
WHEREAS, the bankruptcy court has now approved the sale of the Property to 3507 JNA LLC (“3507”) for the purchase price of $13,350,000; and WHEREAS, Grand Pacific Financial Corporation, the largest secured creditor of HHO has agreed to reduce its claim by approximately $1.2 Million if the escrow in the sale of the aforementioned Property closes by September 15, 2023; and WHEREAS, in order to close the escrow, the City must consent to the Trustee’s assignment of the TTF and the Fueling Agreements to 3507; and WHEREAS, under the terms of the original TTF and Fueling Agreements, the City cannot unreasonably withhold the approval of the assignment if the assignee has the financial ability and the level of experience in airport operation which 3507 has shown; and WHEREAS, 3507 also needs the City to approve the Estoppel Certificates for the approval of the assignment of TTF and Fueling Agreements for their financing arrangements in - 2 -

Dir. of Housing: ___________
Kimberly Mack
SUBJECT:
Public Hearing on the Draft 2022-2023 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) Programs.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
The staff recommend that the City Council:
1. Conduct the public hearing and receive comments on the draft 2022-2023 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
2. Approve the 2022-2023 CAPER for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) Programs.
3. Authorize the City Manager, or their designee, to submit the 2022-2023 CAPER to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
DISCUSSION:
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires the City of Hawthorne to prepare and submit a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) in connection with the City’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) programs.
The City receives CDBG and HOME funds annually from HUD on a formula basis, and in turn, implements projects and awards grants to non-profit organizations for projects in furtherance of the adopted Consolidated Plan. The CDBG and HOME programs generally provide for a wide range of eligible activities for the benefit of low- and moderate-income Hawthorne residents.
This report includes an assessment of activities implemented by the City and its community partners with CDBG and HOME funds from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 to address the needs of low- and moderate-income residents. Submission of this report marks the completion of the third year in the current five-year planning cycle that covers July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2025.
For the 2022-2023 program year, the City received $1,222,487 of CDBG and $684,231 of HOME funds. When combined with program income and available prior year resources, the 2022-2023 Action Plan allocated $1,437,472 of CDBG funds and $4,624,958.47 of HOME funds. The investment of CDBG and HOME funds was a catalyst for positive change in the community. The following highlights the activities implemented by the City and its community partners during the recently completed fiscal year.
• Affordable Housing Preservation: The City of Hawthorne Housing Rehabilitation Program completed four (4) housing rehabilitation projects to address deficient housing conditions and preserve the existing housing stock that is affordable to low- and moderate-income homeowners.
• Affordable Housing Development: HOME funds were allocated towards a Rental Rehabilitation project to address deficient housing conditions and preserve the existing housing stock that is available for extremely low- and low-income tenants. This project is anticipated to be completed during the 2023-2024 program year and will result in the rehabilitation of three (3) city-owned properties comprised of 18-units that are occupied by extremely low- and low-income tenants.
• Fair Housing Services: The Fair Housing Foundation provided 232 Hawthorne residents with fair housing and landlord-tenant mediation services. • Public Services: Three (3) non-profit organizations provided a range of services to Hawthorne residents including but not limited to providing after-school enrichment activities for 137 school children from low- and moderate-income families, case management and emergency assistance to 164 extremely low- and low-income residents, and domestic violence services for 35 Hawthorne residents. • Public Facilities and Infrastructure Improvements: The City of Hawthorne completed the third of the five remaining repayments of its Section 108 Loan. The second to last repayment of $369,517.50 will be issued during the 2023-2024 program year. • COVID-19 Response: CDBG-CV funds were used to address housing and economic development needs of Hawthorne residents. The housing component of these activities included short-term rental and utility assistance to 123 income-eligible households. The economic development components included financial assistance in the forms of grants to two (2) small businesses and six (6) microenterprises. Lastly, the City included a
homelessness component to provide transitional housing for residents displaced due to the socio-economic impacts related to coronavirus which resulted in 12 pallet shelters.
Ultimately, the CDBG, HOME, and CDBG-CV funded activities contributed significantly to the City’s progress toward meeting the high priority needs identified in the Consolidated Plan. This is especially true as the City’s residents faced new challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic including job loss, food insecurity, housing insecurity, and disruption to normal in-person public services. City staff also adapted to a remote work environment and continued delivering high quality services to residents throughout the duration of the stay-at-home orders. Non-profit subrecipients and City Department altered their program delivery models to promote social distancing while continuing to provide essential services to low- and moderate-income residents.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
None
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
NOTICING PROCEDURES:
In accordance with the City’s adopted Citizen Participation Plan, a public notice was published in the Hawthorne Press Tribune on August 24, 2023 inviting the public to comment on the CAPER.
The draft CAPER was available for public review at City Hall, the Public Library, and online via the City’s website.

Progress Report
CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes
Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan. 91.520(a) This 2022-2023 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is the City of Hawthorne’s report to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) describing the use of federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnership (HOME) funds.
The CDBG program provides a wide range of eligible activities that provide decent housing, suitable living environments and expanded economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income persons. The HOME program expands the supply of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households through a variety of affordable housing activities, including building, buying, and/or rehabilitating rental and ownership housing or providing direct rental assistance to low- and moderate-income households.
The five-year Consolidated Plan establishes priorities and goals used to guide decisions about the specific projects and activities that receive CDBG and HOME funding every year in the Annual Action Plan. The City of Hawthorne implements some projects and activities directly and awards funds to non-profit or public organizations that implement programs in furtherance of the Consolidated Plan goals.
This CAPER provides the City’s progress report for the third Program Year of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, covering the period from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023. For the 2022-2023 Program Year, the City received $1,222,487 of CDBG funds and $684,231 of HOME funds from HUD. When combined with program income and available prior year resources, the 2022-2023 Action Plan allocated $1,437,472 of CDBG funds and $4,624,958.47 of HOME funds to local projects. Together with other federal, state and local investments, HUD resources allowed the City and its partners to address the high priority needs identified in the 2020- 2024 Consolidated Plan.
Table 1 provides a summary of the five-year goals, one-year goals, and one-year accomplishments for the period ending June 30, 2023, arranged by each of the Strategic Plan Goals included in the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan of the Consolidated Plan.

Narrative
City of Hawthorne - 11 - 2022-2023 CAPER
During the 2022-2023 Program Year, the City allocated 100 percent of its non-administrative CDBG and HOME funds to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income persons throughout the City of Hawthorne.
Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan.
To address housing and community development needs in Hawthorne, CDBG and HOME entitlement grants are used to leverage a variety of funding resources to maximize the effectiveness of available funds. The CDBG public service activities leveraged private, state, and other federal funds to deliver services for lowand moderate-income people.
During the program year, the City identified five (5) city-owned apartment complexes containing 38 units at various locations in the City of Hawthorne to address the need to preserve the supply of affordable housing.
More specifically, the 2022-2023 Action Plan invested HOME funds to rehabilitate three (3) of these properties comprised of 18 units that are occupied by very low- and low-income tenants. To ensure the feasibility of the project, the City leveraged additional resources from the State’s Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA)_program as well as HUD’s Economic Development Initiative (EDI) Community Project Fund (CPF) program. Additional leveraging opportunities include, but are not limited to, those listed below.

Discuss the difference between goals and outcomes and problems encountered in meeting these goals.
Two high priority affordable housing goals were identified in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan to provide the framework necessary to invest CDBG and HOME funds to address affordable housing needs. These include Affordable Housing Preservation and Affordable Housing Development. Tables 11 and 12 indicate the number of households supported with affordable housing assistance through the CDBG and HOME programs during the 2022-2023 Program Year.
As the City’s housing stock ages, a growing percentage of housing units may need rehabilitation to allow them to remain safe and habitable. The situation is of particular concern for low- and moderate-income homeowners who are generally not in a financial position to properly maintain their homes. During the program year, the City completed four (4) homeowner housing rehabilitation projects. Affordable housing renovations are typically multi-year projects and are subject to the ability to secure funding from various sources. Often, the ability to meet the anticipated goals is dictated by various factors that can create City of Hawthorne - 17 - 2022-2023 CAPER
disparities between goals and actual outcomes such as: funding availability, costs of raw materials, timing, and project schedules. Unexpected challenges are commonly encountered during the repair phase of the project which causes delays that impact project delivery.
To increase the supply of affordable housing, the 2022-2023 Action Plan allocated $1,774,872.47of HOME funds towards an acquisition, rehabilitation, resale activity. Of the federal resources available, HOME funding provides the most viable resource due to the amount of funding available, however is burdened with considerable regulatory compliance requirements. This is further exacerbated by the current real estate market that provides a limited inventory of properties that meet the pricing requirements of the HOME program. As a result, the City was unable to reach its intended goal of acquiring, rehabilitating, and reselling two (2) units to income-qualified residents.
In addition, the 2022-2023 Action Plan identified a project that would invest $2,500,000 in HOME funds to rehabilitate three (3) city-owned properties comprised of 18-units occupied by very low- and low-income residents. Since the start of the program year, the City attempted to solicit bids from qualified contractors on three (3) separate occasions. In response to the first Notice Inviting Bids (NIB), the City did not receive any bids. In response to the second NIB, the City received two (2) bids that were nearly twice as much as the City’s independent cost estimate. As such, the City decided to split the project into two phases. The first half will focus on the exterior façade improvements, whereas the second half will focus on the interior rehabilitation work. Thereafter, the City published and advertised the third NIB. While there were 12 interested contractors present at the pre-bid job walk, only one (1) contractor submitted a bid. After reviewing the submitted bid, the City deemed the proposed price to be reasonable and the contractor to be qualified. Through its procurement process, the City showed that after solicitation of a number of sources, competition was determined inadequate. In this instance, HUD approved the City’s request for a noncompetitive procurement for this specific instance to facilitate the project moving forward.
Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans.
The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan identified a high priority need to preserve the supply to affordable housing.
During the 2022-2023 Program Year, the City of Hawthorne invested CDBG funds in the rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing units. Four (4) projects are being counted in FY 2022-2023. In future Action Plans, the City anticipates continuing to invest in affordable housing preservation and in projects that will create new affordable housing opportunities for low-and moderate-income residents.
In addition, during the 2022-2023 program year, the City awarded CDBG funds to Catholic Charities of Los Angeles who was able to provide emergency assistance services to 164 unduplicated residents by providing financial assistance in the form of rental, rental arrear, and utility payments.
As community needs change the City may need to undertake additional activities to best achieve the City's ability to meet its affordable housing goals. All future Annual Action Plans will provide additional information on any on-going affordable housing activities and the City will continue to assess and determine affordable housing needs that best utilize available funding sources.

Narrative Information
The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan identified high priority affordable housing needs including developing new affordable housing units and preserving the supply of affordable owner-occupied housing. To preserve housing that is already affordable to low- and moderate-income homeowners, the City’s Housing Rehabilitation Program provided 4 grants and 1 loan to 3 households during the Program Year. The 3 households served were low-income households.
To address what HUD defines as “worst case housing need” the City provided funds in the 2022-2023 Action Plan for the preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by lowand extremely low-income residents who would otherwise continue to live in substandard housing because they were not in the financial position to properly maintain their home. This includes attempts to meet the needs of persons with disabilities by making necessary improvements which aid the mobility of the elderly and physically disabled such as shower units with seats, handrails, ramping and reconstructing doorways.
Addressing substandard housing conditions through housing preservation activities is a cost-effective way to invest limited resources to retain housing units that are already affordable to low- and moderate-income residents and ensure all economic segments of the community have the opportunity to live in decent housing.
In future Action Plans, the City anticipates continuing to invest CDBG and HOME funds to address both the preservation and development of affordable housing. As community needs change, the City may need to undertake additional activities to facilitate the City’s ability to meet its affordable housing goals. All future Annual Action Plan will provide additional information on any ongoing affordable housing activities and the City will continue to assess and determine affordable housing needs that best utilize available funding sources.

91.520(c)
Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The Los Angeles County Point-In-Time Homeless Count (PIT Count) conducted in 2023 revealed that on any given night in Los Angeles County, approximately 75,518 people are homeless, up from 69,144 counted in a prior effort undertaken in 2022. This includes 20,363 people in shelters and 55,155 people without shelter.
In Service Provision Area 8 (SPA 8), of which Hawthorne is a part of, 6,476 homeless residents were counted, comprising approximately 8.6 percent of Los Angeles County’s homeless population.
To reach out to unsheltered homeless persons and assess their individual needs for the purpose of connecting them with available emergency shelter and transitional housing resources, the City of Hawthorne, through its Housing Department provided information and referrals – primarily to the Los Angeles County Continuum of Care (CoC) led by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), United Way 2-1-1, and the organizations receiving CDBG funds for homelessness prevention activities.
The Los Angeles CoC has continued to implement a public-facing online system called the Los Angeles Homeless Outreach Portal (LA-HOP) for community stakeholders to inform the outreach system of persons experiencing unsheltered homelessness in need of services. Requests go to a centralized platform and are then routed to the regional Coordinated Entry System (CES). CoC coordinators then triage the requests and ensure that outreach teams are deployed to contact the individual experiencing homelessness within 72 hours of the request.
During the 2022-2023 Program Year, the City awarded two (2) contracts to non-profit organization using CDBG funds totaling $51,462.00 to meet its respective objectives to provide public services that prevent and eliminate homelessness.
• New Star Family Center: Domestic Violence Services (35 residents served) • Catholic Charities of Los Angeles: St. Margaret’s Emergency Assistance (164 residents served) Additionally, the City’s Recreation and Community Services Department continues to partner with public service providers that offer a variety of programs to those who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless.
City of Hawthorne - 20 - 2022-2023 CAPER
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons To address the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons, the City continues to support the New Star Family Center which provides emergency shelter and transitional housing assistance, counseling, and case management for survivors of domestic violence and their children who have are homeless or at-risk of homelessness after fleeing violent homes. During the Program Year, New Star Family Justice Center served 35 unduplicated persons via its Domestic Violence Services and Prevention program.
Additionally, the City supports the Family Promise of South Bay with CDBG-CV funds which provides emergency shelter and supportive services for Hawthorne residents who have become homeless or are atrisk homelessness. During the Program Year, Family Promise of the South Bay assisted 12 unduplicated families.
Lastly, as part of its CDBG-CV program, the City invested $617,262 to develop the Bridge of Hope community comprised of 12 pallet shelters to be utilized as transitional housing for homeless Hawthorne residents.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely lowincome individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in significant business closures and other disruptions that put the City’s residents at risk of losing their housing. To help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, the e City partnered with Catholic Charities of Los Angeles to connect residents at risk of becoming homeless to existing short-term housing and utility assistance programs based on their eligibility and need.
As a result of these efforts, Catholic Charities of Los Angeles was able to assist 164 people, of which 143 were extremely low-income individuals and families who represent the highest risk of becoming homeless.
SB 1152 requires hospitals to develop written homeless patient discharging planning policy that coordinates services and referrals with regional social service agencies, medical care, and county behavioral health services.
Inadequate discharge planning and coordination contributes to homelessness in situations where people are released from public institutions or public systems of care without having an appropriate mainstream or supportive housing option available upon discharge from an institutional setting. Public institutions such as jails, hospitals, treatment facilities, mental health facilities, youth facilities, and foster care homes are central to limiting the creation of newly homeless persons upon discharge.
City of Hawthorne - 21 - 2022-2023 CAPER
In California, discharge coordination and planning is largely unregulated unless county or municipal ordinances provide rules preventing public institutions from discharging people into homelessness. One of the goals included in the Los Angeles Ten Year Strategy to End Homelessness is to formalize protocols and improve the coordination of discharge planning among key institutional systems of care and supervision. The goal calls for the CoC to close the “revolving door” to homelessness so that new persons do not find themselves living in the community without the social and economic support necessary to access and maintain themselves in a safe environment.
The City coordinated with the CoC and other subrecipients receiving CDBG funds to ensure that its HUDfunded programs are targeted, to the greatest extent feasible, to address the discharge of persons from publicly funded institutions or systems of care so that these individuals and families have access to public services and affordable housing opportunities necessary to prevent homelessness. The City will continue to explore additional ways to prevent and address homelessness caused by discharge from public institutions.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
To address the needs of homeless families, families with children, veterans and their families, the City provided $51,462.00 of CDBG funds for public service programs through two (2) contracts with non-profit organizations. These programs help individuals and families achieve stability by connecting them to the appropriate resources based on their needs.
Each of these programs provide tailored counseling and case management services to people experiencing homelessness or at-risk of homelessness. During the program year, New Star Family Center served 35 unduplicated persons through its domestic violence prevention services program. Additionally, Catholic Charities of Los Angeles assisted 164 unduplicated people through its emergency assistance program. When paired with financial counseling, career coaching, and other available case management services, Hawthorne’s non-profit partners make certain that individuals and families have the tools necessary to succeed.
Additionally, the City’s partnership with LAHSA provides intensive, field-based engagement services and support that meets clients and their families where they live. As a result, the City has been able to leverage its partnerships with the County agencies to bolster its homeless outreach.

CR-30 - Public Housing 91.220(h); 91.320(j)
Actions taken to address the needs of public housing
There are no public housing developments in Hawthorne. The City of Hawthorne Housing Authority is responsible for administering the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program. Currently, the Housing Authority is assisting 1,160 families who are low-income and do not earn enough to keep pace with rising rental housing costs.
All other public housing programs consist of Housing Choice and Project-Based Housing Choice Vouchers administered by the Los Angeles Community Development Agency (LACDA). The City of Hawthorne Housing Authority has continued to support LACDA in effective administration of its limited affordable housing resources. More specifically, the City worked with LACDA to include residents with Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers in the federally-funded programs administered by the City.
As of June 30, 2021, LACDA administered a total of 97,152 Housing Choice Vouchers throughout Los Angeles County. Of those, approximately 711 or 0.7 percent of all vouchers in Los Angeles County were utilized by low-income Hawthorne residents. LACDA monitors all units to ensure they are in adequate condition, meeting the Section 8 Housing Quality Standards.
Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
The Hawthorne Housing Authority and LACDA support resident councils and actively seeks input from Public Housing Authority (PHA) residents concerning the management and implementation. Housing prices in Los Angeles County are so high that homeownership opportunities are limited for residents. LACDA continues to actively promote programs such as the First-Time Homebuyer Assistance programs and actively encourage public housing residents to explore homeownership opportunities.
Both the City and LACDA encourage residents to be actively involved in the community and in the management of public housing developments through resident councils and numerous opportunities for feedback such as community meetings and surveys. LACDA and the City also actively encourage and promote public housing residents to participate in homebuyer counseling programs and recommends residents use the family self-sufficiency escrow account to save money towards homeownership. Under the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program, participants develop a five-year training and service plan that outlines the steps to become employed, increase their earnings, and become independent of government assistance.
Upon graduation of the FFS program, graduates are allowed to use the escrow account funds towards homeownership.
Actions taken to provide assistance to troubled PHAs
Not applicable. The Hawthorne Housing Authority is designated as a High Performing Public Housing Agency.
City of Hawthorne - 23 - 2022-2023 CAPER
CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-(j)
Actions taken to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i)
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection, cost of land and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing are distinguished from impediments to fair housing choice in the sense that barriers are lawful and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful.
Based on information gathered during community meetings, the Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment Survey, the 2021-2029 Housing Element, and market analysis, the primary barriers to affordable housing in Hawthorne continue to be housing affordability and the lack of monetary resources necessary to develop and sustain affordable housing. The two barriers are related in the sense that demand for affordable housing exceeds the supply and insufficient resources are available to increase the supply of affordable housing to meet demand.
To address these barriers, the City has adopted a policy to allow by-right approval of housing developments proposed on non-vacant sites included in the previous Housing Element inventory (5th Cycle) and on vacant sites included in the two previous Housing Element inventories (4th and 5th Cycles), provided that the proposed housing development includes at least 20 percent lower income affordable housing units.
The City is also exploring options to utilize their regulatory powers including density bonuses and financial incentives to promote and facilitate the development of affordable housing. In addition, the City anticipates conducting a review of residential development standards, regulations, ordinances, departmental processing procedures, and permit fees related to construction and rehabilitation to determine any constraints on housing development and modify accordingly.
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low- and moderate-income people include lack of funding from federal, state and other local sources, the high cost of housing that is not affordable to lowincome people, and the lack of availability of home improvement financing in the private lending industry.
To overcome these obstacles, the City continued to invest CDBG and HOME funds through the 2022-2023 Action Plan in projects that provided assistance to low- and moderate-income homeowners for home improvements, projects that provide public and neighborhood services to low- and moderate-income people and projects that prevent homelessness.
City of Hawthorne - 24 - 2022-2023 CAPER
To address underserved needs, the City allocated 100 percent of its non-administrative CDBG and HOME investments for Program Year 2022-2023 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people.
The City used its CDBG funds to leverage appropriate state, local, and private resources secured by each non-profit organization providing public services. In addition, the City will seek to leverage other sources of federal, state, and local resources to compliment CDBG and HOME funds to meet the underserved needs in the community.
Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) emphasizes prevention of childhood lead poisoning through housing-based approaches. To reduce lead-based paint hazards, the rehabilitation of housing units built prior to January 1, 1978 included a lead-based paint testing and risk assessment process. When lead-based paint was identified, the City ensured that developers and contractors incorporated safe work practices and depending on the level of assistance, abate the lead-based paint as part of the scope of work to effectively reduce lead-based paint hazards to children in accordance with federal regulations. There were no instances of lead-based paint identified during the rehabilitation of housing units under the Housing Rehabilitation program during the 2022-2023 program year.
Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) During the Program Year, the City supported the following strategies and actions to reduce the number of poverty-level families:
• Supported housing preservation programs that ensure low- and moderate-income households have a safe, decent, and appropriate place to live;
• Supported public services through various non-profits funded by CDBG that serve the community’s youth, families, and residents with special needs
• Supported a continuum of housing and public service program to prevent and eliminate homelessness
In addition to these local efforts, mainstream state and federal resources also contributed to reducing the number of individuals and families in poverty. Federal programs, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Head Start, provide pathways out of poverty for families who are ready to pursue employment and educational opportunities. Additionally, in California, the primary programs that assist families in poverty are CalWORKS, CalFresh (formerly food stamps) and Medi-Cal. Together, these programs provided individuals and families with employment assistance, subsidy for food, medical care, childcare and cash payments to meet basic needs such as housing, nutrition and transportation. Other services are available to assist persons suffering from substance abuse, domestic violence and mental illness.
Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) City of Hawthorne - 25 - 2022-2023 CAPER
The institutional delivery system in Hawthorne is best represented through the collaboration between local government and an outstanding set of non-profit organizations that carry out a diverse array of public service programs to enrich the lives of residents. These relationships are collaborative-each organization partnering with the next to ensure that all Hawthorne residents have the support necessary to lead fulfilling lives.
Affordable housing preservation activities are carried out by the Housing Department in partnership with the housing contractors. Guided by the Strategic Plan, public service activities are carried out by non-profit organizations and City Departments to serve low- and moderate-income residents. The Housing Department works with the Public Works Department on city-owned public facilities and infrastructure improvements to ensure their projects are delivered on time, within budget, and in compliance with all federal, state, and local regulations.
Through technical assistance and the annual Notice of Funding Availability process last winter, the City continued to develop and expand local institutional structure by strengthening existing partnerships and leveraging the experience of organizations that previously have not participated in locally-administered federal programs to expand the number of program offerings available to residents.
Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
To enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies, the City consulted with and will continue inviting the participation of a wide variety of agencies and organizations involved in the delivery of housing and supportive services to low- and moderate-income residents in Hawthorne.
Representatives of the City participated in regularly scheduled regional Homeless Coalition meetings by the lead agency of the Continuum of Care, LAHSA. Additionally, City staff partook in neighborhood meetings during the program year to coordinate the efforts of local organizations that are working in neighborhoods to address poverty through direct community engagement.
Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdiction’s analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) Activities implemented during the 2022-2023 Program Year followed the recommendations of the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice that was adopted by the City Council on May 12, 2020. For the 2020-2024 planning period, there is one (1) impediment to fair housing choice summarized below.
Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities: According to data provided by the local Fair Housing service provider, the number of fair housing discrimination complaints on the basis of disability accounted for 82 percent of all complaints by Hawthorne residents. Throughout the region, the state, and nationally, disabilityrelated complaints are the leading basis of discrimination cited by residents, accounting for approximately two-thirds of all complaints in some jurisdictions, demonstrating a lack of understanding and sensitivity of the fair housing rights of persons with disabilities who experience difficulties when requesting reasonable City of Hawthorne - 26 - 2022-2023 CAPER
accommodations or modifications. In particular, persons with cognitive disabilities experience significantly more problems with these accommodations.
The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice included the following recommendation specific to the City of Hawthorne:
• Work with the City’s fair housing services provider, continue to invest in landlord and tenant counseling and mediation services, facilitate educational opportunities for landlords and tenants to provide information concerning the law as it pertains to reasonable accommodations and modifications.
o For the 2022-2023 Program Year, the City contracted with the Fair Housing Foundation (FHF) to provide fair housing education and general housing services to Hawthorne residents to prevent incidences of housing discrimination. Implementation of the 2020-2024 Fair Housing Plan recommendations during the Program Year was principally undertaken by FHF, with the participation of the City of Hawthorne Housing Department. o During the program year, FHF assisted 232 Hawthorne residents with general fair housing education services throughout Hawthorne. Outreach included two informational booths at community events; four fair housing presentations to community-based organizations, resident associations, and government agencies, and two walk-in clinics tailored to specific audiences.
Topics included federal and state fair housing laws, including protected classes, prohibited practices, and disability accommodations.

CR-40 - Monitoring 91.220 and 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements To ensure that CDBG and HOME funds are used efficiently and in compliance with applicable regulations, the City provided technical assistance to all subrecipients at the beginning of the program year and monitored subrecipients throughout the program year.
Technical Assistance
To enhance compliance with federal program regulations, the City made technical assistance available to prospective applicants to review the Consolidated Plan goals, program requirements, and available resources with potential applicants. Subsequent to the approval of the Annual Action Plan, a mandatory subrecipient workshop was held in June 2022 to review program regulations in detail, to provide useful forms and resources for documenting compliance, and to review the City’s compliance procedures and requirements. Additionally, individualized technical assistance was provided on an as-needed basis during the Program Year.
Activity Monitoring
All activities were monitored, beginning with a detailed review upon receipt of an application to determine eligibility, conformance with a National Objective and conformance with an Action Plan goal. This review also examined the proposed use of funds, eligibility of the service area, eligibility of the intended beneficiaries and likelihood of compliance with other federal requirements such as the National Environmental Policy Act, the System for Award Management (SAM) debarment list, prevailing wage, Minority and Women Business Enterprise, Section 3, and federal acquisition and relocation regulations, as applicable.
Subrecipients were required to submit an audit and other documentation to establish their capacity, and any findings noted in the audit are reviewed with the applicant. Eligible applicants were then considered for funding. The City reviewed quarterly performance reports and invoices throughout the year as part of its desk monitoring.
For CDBG public service activities, remote monitoring was conducted during the program year to verify compliance. These reviews included both a fiscal and programmatic review of the subrecipient’s activities.
The reviews determined if each subrecipient complied with the program regulations and City contract. Areas of review included overall administration, financial systems, appropriateness of program expenditures, program delivery, client eligibility determination and documentation, reporting systems, and achievement toward achieving contractual goals. Following the remote monitoring visit, a written report was prepared, delineating the result of the review and any findings of non-compliance and the required corrective action.
Subrecipients were given 30 days to provide the City with corrective actions taken to address any noted City of Hawthorne - 28 - 2022-2023 CAPER
findings. For CDBG capital projects, monitoring also included compliance with labor standards and regulatory agreement requirements.
For HOME funded activities, the annual monitoring is scheduled to occur in October of 2023 and will be performed on renter occupied units to ensure that household income, rents, and utility allowances were in compliance with applicable limits pursuant to the affordability covenant.
Citizen Participation Plan 91.105(d); 91.115(d)
Describe the efforts to provide citizens with reasonable notice and an opportunity to comment on performance reports.
In accordance with the City’s adopted Citizen Participation Plan, a public notice was published in the Hawthorne Press Tribune on August 24, 2023, notifying the public of the availability of the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) for a 15-day public review and comment period. A copy of the public notice is included in Appendix A.
The draft CAPER was available from August 25, 2023, to September 12, 2023 on the City’s website. Physical copies were also available at City Hall and the public library. Residents were encouraged to review the CAPER and provide any written comments by mail to Kimberly Mack, Housing Director, or via email to [email protected]. A summary of any written comments received during the public review and comment period are included in the CAPER submission to HUD as Appendix A.
A public hearing was conducted before the City Council on Tuesday, September 12, 2023 to solicit comments from residents and interested parties. A summary of any written or oral comments received during the public hearing are included in Appendix A of the final approved CAPER.

CR-45 - CDBG 91.520(c)
Specify the nature of, and reasons for, any changes in the jurisdiction’s program objectives and indications of how the jurisdiction would change its programs as a result of its experiences.
The 2022-2023 Program Year was the third year of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. The City made progress towards its five-year and one-year goals for this reporting period and did not change its program objectives or the projects and activities that utilized CDBG funds. The 2022-2023 projects were successful, and therefore, no changes are anticipated to be made for the City’s future objectives.
CDBG funded activities contributed significantly to the City’s progress toward meeting the high priority needs identified in the Consolidated Plan. As shown in Table 1 on page 2 of this document, CDBG funds are contributing to four Strategic Plan goals including Fair Housing Services, Public Services, Affordable Housing Preservation, as well as Public Facilities and Infrastructure Improvements.
City of Hawthorne - 30 - 2022-2023 CAPER
CR-50 - HOME 91.520(d)
Include the results of on-site inspections of affordable rental housing assisted under the program to determine compliance with housing codes and other applicable regulations Maintaining HOME-assisted affordable housing is a high priority. During the Program Year, and as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Housing Department did not conduct physical inspections of any HOMEassisted properties currently in their affordability period as required to determine compliance with the housing codes and other applicable regulations. Inspections will resume on their regular schedule during the 2023- 2024Program Year. When any deficiencies exist, the property owner and property management will be notified to make repairs and Housing Department staff will follow up to ensure completion of the required repairs. The following HOME-assisted projects are subject to on-site inspection:
• 12501 Kornblum Avenue – 3 units
Provide an assessment of the jurisdiction's affirmative marketing actions for HOME units. 92.351(b) Each of the HOME-assisted properties with more than five units maintains an Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan. During annual monitoring, the annual Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Report and waitlist are reviewed to ensure compliance with HUD requirements to affirmatively further fair housing choice.
Refer to IDIS reports to describe the amount and use of program income for projects, including the number of projects and owner and tenant characteristics A total of $0.00 of HOME program income was receipted during the Program Year. A balance of $490,493.12 of program income was on hand at the end of the reporting period. This program income will be applied to upcoming HOME funded activities in the next FY.
Describe other actions taken to foster and maintain affordable housing. 91.220(k) In the implementation of the 2022-2023 Action Plan, the City utilized HOME funds to preserve and maintain affordable housing by rehabilitating the existing housing stock of the City through its Housing Rehabilitation program. In addition, the City continued the process of updating its Housing Element to ensure it is prepared to meet the future housing needs of Hawthorne for the 2021-2029 planning period. A revised final draft was made available for public review during the month of August 2022. This policy document will identify goals, policies, and programs that the City will use to direct and guide actions related to housing.

Staff Recommends that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 2244 on September 12, 2023 and adopt Ordinance No. 2244 on September 26, 2023.
DISCUSSION:
In November of 2020, citizens of Hawthorne approved Measure CC to authorize a 5% cannabis tax on any cannabis sold within the city. December 2021, the Council passed Ordinance No. 2227 which repealed chapter 8.48 of the Hawthorne Municipal Code (HMC) in its entirety and replaced it with the current version to protect citizens from secondhand smoke in public buildings and shared common areas in residential complexes. Within the newly enacted chapter, is a blanket prohibition on all smoking in enclosed areas open to the public. This includes bars, store, clubs, etc. that are open to the public regardless of age restrictions or paid admission.
Two years after the approval of Measure CC, the Council passed Ordinance No. 2235 and created HMC chapter 5.100. This chapter, along with chapter 17.90, allows for and regulates onsite consumption of cannabis. Consumption can take the form of edible products or those designed to be inhaled which create secondhand smoke. The blanket prohibition found in section 8.48.030 could be construed to prohibit uses specifically authorized by chapters 5.100 and 17.90. To avoid any confusion and conflict in the HMC, this ordinance will add section 8.48.045 which will clarify that onsite consumption of cannabis authorized by chapters 5.100 and 17.90 is not prohibited by
section 8.48.030.

SUBJECT:
Retiree Healthcare Plan June 30, 2023 GASBS 75 Actuarial Report RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council accept and file the OPEB Valuation Report for Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2023.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Hawthorne provides medical insurance for retired employees subject to certain limitations. This type of employee benefit is referred to as Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB), other than pensions, that employers provide to their retired employees. The City of Hawthorne is required to measure and disclose an amount for annual OPEB costs. Annual OPEB cost is determined by an actuarial valuation required every two years. Actuarial valuations involve estimates and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future.
The City engaged Foster & Foster Actuaries to prepare an actuarial valuation of their postretirement benefits program as of June 30, 2021. In accordance with GASB, this valuation was used to provide the attached June 30, 2023 GASBS 75 disclosure report. This report was prepared using employee census data, enrollment data, premiums, participant contributions and plan provision information provided by personnel of the City Hawthorne. Bartel Associates did not audit this data, although it was reviewed for reasonability. The results of the valuation are dependent on the accuracy of the data. The purpose of the report is to provide the current funded position of the City’s post-retirement benefits program and related accounting information to be reported in the City’s June 30, 2023, financial statement.
Key results:
• Unfunded actuarial accrued liability of $100,714,992, which represents a decrease of $21.1 million from the previous year of $121,828,966.
• Annual Benefit Payments $3,263,442 for 2021/22 and $3,231,292 for 2022/2023. • Assumption change:
➢ Increase in the discount rate from 2.16% to 3.54% based on the municipal bond Rate ➢ All assumptions are based on a non-pre-funded status due to the measurement period being July 2021 through June 2022
• Events Subsequent to June 30, 2022 measurement date:
➢ The City began pre-funding in the PARS Balanced Strategy with a $3.5 million contribution in November 2022.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
Create financial stability by reducing long term liabilities, and improving the City’s net position.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

To the best of our knowledge, this report is complete and accurate and has been conducted using generally accepted actuarial principles and practices and complies with applicable Actuarial Standards of Practice. Additionally, in our opinion, actuarial methods and assumptions comply with GASBS 75. As the actuary, we have recommended the assumptions used in this report, and we believe they are reasonable. As members of the American Academy of Actuaries meeting the Academy Qualification Standards, we certify the actuarial results and opinions herein.
Respectfully submitted,
This report presents the City of Hawthorne Retiree Healthcare Plan 2022/23 disclosure under Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 75 (GASBS 75). This report may not be appropriate for other purposes, although it may be useful to the City for the Plan’s financial management.
This report is based on information provided by the City which we relied on and did not audit. Additional information on the actuarial valuation can be found in the June 30, 2021 actuarial valuation report.
Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this report due to such factors as: plan experience differing from that anticipated by the assumptions; changes in assumptions; changes expected as part of the natural progression of the plan; and changes in plan provisions or applicable law. Actuarial models necessarily rely on the use of estimates and are sensitive to changes. Small variations in estimates may lead to significant changes in actuarial measurements. Due to the limited scope of this assignment, we did not perform an analysis of the potential range of such measurements.

SUBJECT:
Agreement and Purchase Order between the City of Hawthorne and Valsoft Corporation Inc. dba Cascade Software Systems, Inc for the Cost Accounting Management System.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approves the Agreement and Purchase Order and authorize the City Manager to enter into and execute it on the City’s behalf.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this agenda bill is to present the case for the City of Hawthorne to rewrite the agreement with Valsoft Corporation Inc. dba Cascade Software Systems Inc. for the continues provisions of technical system analysis, program development, preparation, unity and system testing, data communications, project consultations, documentation, training, status reporting, maintenance and system services. This system allows Public Works Equipment division to create service orders, keep track of fuel inventory, pricing and dispensing. The current agreement has been in place since 2000 and has played a pivotal role in efficiently managing fleet equipment operations.
This comprehensive software solution has enabled us to effectively manage our equipment division through the use of innovative devices. It is proposed that the City of Hawthorne undertake the process of rewriting the agreement with Cascade Software Systems Inc. for the following reasons:
Over the past two decades, there have been significant technological advancements in the software and systems domain. By rewriting the agreement, we can ensure that the Cost Accounting Management System remains up-to-date and capable of harnessing the latest technologies for enhanced performance and efficiency.
The needs and requirements of our equipment divisions have evolved since the initial implementation of the system in 2000. Rewriting the agreement provides an opportunity to reevaluate and align the software functionalities with our current and future needs.
As a sole source provider, Cascade Software Systems Inc. has an in-depth understanding of our operations and unique requirements. Rewriting the agreement allows us to work closely with the vendor to enhance the system's performance, addressing any existing limitations and ensuring seamless integration with our processes. This ensures that our staff remains proficient in using the system and that any new features are effectively utilized.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
Implementing a robust fueling system tracker for the City fleet vehicles in Hawthorne can significantly contribute to achieving economic development goals in several ways. Efficient fuel consumption directly translates to cost savings. By closely monitoring fuel usage, identifying patterns of excessive consumption, and detecting fuel leaks or inefficiencies early, the City can optimize its fuel expenditures. This cost reduction can free up funds for other essential projects and services, contributing to overall economic growth.
The fueling system tracker can provide insights into vehicle performance and fuel efficiency.
Regular maintenance based on these insights can extend the lifespan of the fleet vehicles.
Increased longevity means reduced need for frequent replacements, leading to substantial longterm savings for the City.
In addition, with a comprehensive fueling system tracker, the City can gather valuable data on fuel consumption trends, vehicle efficiency, and maintenance requirements. Analyzing this data can inform strategic decisions related to fleet management, route planning, and even the potential transition to more fuel-efficient or alternative-fuel vehicles. Informed decision-making contributes to effective resource utilization and cost savings.
In conclusion, a good fueling system tracker for City fleet vehicles aligns with Hawthorne's economic development goals by promoting cost efficiency, resource allocation, and data-driven decision-making. By maximizing the potential of its fleet through data-driven insights, the City can attract investment, save costs, and create a more prosperous and sustainable future.

Agreement and Purchase Order between the City of Hawthorne and E.J. Ward Inc. for Intelligent Telematics and Fuel Control devices.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approves the Agreement and Purchase Order and authorize the City Manager to enter into and execute it on the Citys behalf.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Hawthorne operates a diverse fleet of vehicles that serve various municipal functions.
Efficient fleet management is crucial for optimizing operations, controlling costs, and ensuring the timely maintenance of vehicles. In pursuit of these goals, the City has been utilizing the services of E.J Wards, a reputable provider of telematics and fuel control devices that integrates with our current software.
We propose to continue our partnership with E.J. Wards to provide telematics and fuel control solutions for our municipal fleet. E.J. Wards offers a comprehensive system that integrates with Cascade Software to efficiently manage our fuel inventory, pricing, and dispensing, while also facilitating vehicle service scheduling through the transfer of vehicle mileage information. This integration streamlines our fleet management processes and enhances accountability. Each vehicle in our fleet is equipped with a canciever device supplied by E.J. Wards. This device directly collects information from the vehicle's Powertrain Control Module (PCM) through the OBDII connection. This data includes vital performance metrics and diagnostics, enabling us to identify and address maintenance issues promptly.
The system provides real-time monitoring of fuel levels in our storage tanks. This data is integrated with Cascade Software, enabling accurate tracking of fuel consumption, preventing
shortages, and optimizing fuel procurement. The system also automates fuel dispensing, ensuring accurate measurement and reducing the potential for errors.
In addition, the transfer of vehicle mileage information from the telematics system to Cascade Software enables the automatic scheduling of vehicle maintenance and servicing. This proactive approach enhances the longevity of our fleet and minimizes downtime.
As a sole source provider, E.J. Wards has an in depth understanding of our operations and unique requirements. This agreement will enable us to work closely with the vendor to enhance the systems performance, addressing any existing limitations and ensuring seamless integration with our processes.

SUBJECT:
Agreement and Purchase Order between the City of Hawthorne and Wrap Bully’s for Police Vehicle Vinyl Wrapping Services.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approves the Agreement and Purchase Order and authorize the City Manager to enter into and execute it on the City’s behalf.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this agenda is to discuss and consider the continued engagement of Wrap Bully’s as the sole source provider for the vinyl material used on the black and white police cars of the Hawthorne Police Department. Wrap Bullys currently designs and applies custom wraps on all our Ford Explorers police vehicles, which not only enhances the visual identity of our department but also allows for faster vehicle maintenance and repair, reducing downtime.
Wrap Bullys has been our trusted partner for an extended period, providing us with high-quality vinyl wraps that have become an integral part of our police vehicle fleet. These wraps feature a custom design exclusive to the Hawthorne Police Department, contributing to our distinct branding and presence within the community.
The custom wrap design by Wrap Bullys offers several advantages such as efficient repairs. When police vehicles are damaged, the vinyl wrap can be quickly replaced or repaired, allowing the vehicles to be back in service within a short timeframe. This contrasts with conventional repairs that involve repainting, which can take several days. The expedited repair process enabled by the vinyl wrap design ensures that our police vehicles spend less time off the road, thereby maintaining our operational readiness and response capabilities.
The exclusive design created by Wrap Bullys reinforces our department's unique identity and fosters a sense of community trust and recognition. We propose continuing our partnership with Wrap Bullys as the sole source provider for the vinyl material used on our police vehicles. This arrangement has proven to be highly effective, both in terms of vehicle maintenance efficiency and maintaining a strong, consistent brand image for the Hawthorne Police Department.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
The proposal to continue the partnership with Wrap Bullys aligns with the economic development plan of the City of Hawthorne by Enhancing the City's Image and providing cost effective solutions.
The custom vinyl wrap design exclusive to the Hawthorne Police Department contributes to a consistent and recognizable brand image. This can positively impact the perception of the City both within and outside its borders. A strong visual identity fosters a sense of pride among residents and can attract visitors and potential investors, thereby contributing to economic growth.
The proposal highlights the cost-effectiveness of working with Wrap Bullys for expedited vehicle repairs. This efficiency not only ensures that police vehicles are back in service quickly but also demonstrates prudent use of City resources. By saving time and reducing downtime, the City can allocate resources to other areas of economic development.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. The estimated amount of $60,000 will be funded with Equipment Funds, which are available in the adopted Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget.

SUBJECT:
Agreement between the City of Hawthorne and Roadline Products Inc. and Pacific Products & Services LLC. for the Supply of Traffic Signs and Associated Sign Installation Hardware on an as needed basis.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve agreement with Roadline Products Inc. as the primary service provider on an as needed basis and Pacific Products and Services LLC as an alternate and authorize the City Manager or his designee to enter into and execute the agreements.
DISCUSSION:
The City’s Public Works Staff sought proposals to provide Traffic Signs and associated sign installation hardware on an as needed basis. These services include but are not limited to providing, delivering, and record keeping of signs provided. Staff solicited and received three proposals. After careful review and team discussion of all three service providers, Roadline Products Inc and Pacific Products & Services LLC were the top two qualified proposers due to their quality, price and professional experience.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
Awarding contracts to two traffic sign vendors can contribute to the economic development strategic plan in several ways. For example, the diversification of suppliers because by awarding contracts to both Roadline Products Inc and Pacific Products and Services, the City is diversifying its pool of suppliers. This not only reduces the risk of supply chain disruptions but also fosters healthy competition, leading to better pricing and improved quality of products. If one vendor faces unforeseen challenges such as production issues, capacity constraints, or financial
instability, having a secondary vendor can mitigate the risk of project delays. This ensures that projects proceed smoothly, supporting the City’s plans for timely implementation of infrastructure improvements. This approach can contribute to a dynamic local economy while achieving the goals set out in the strategic plan.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. The estimated amount of $50,000 is available in the adopted fiscal year 2023-24 budget and will be funded with Measure M, Measure R, and SB1 Funds.

Award of Contract for Betty Ainsworth Gymnasium Roof Replacement Project (Project #23-03).
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager or his designee to award the project to Best Contractors Services.

The City's Public Works staff sought proposals for Construction Services to provide all services, labor, materials, permits, insurance, tools and equipment necessary to successfully and safely complete the roof rehabilitation project at the Betty Ainsworth Sports Center.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN:
This roof rehabilitation project at our community center gym can contribute to our economic strategic plan in several ways. For example, a functional and well-maintained roof ensures the uninterrupted use of the community center gym for various activities such as dance classes, youth sports, karate, gymnastics, and non-profit meetings. This contributes to the continuity of these services, which are essential for the community's well-being and engagement. By maintaining a reliable facility, the community center can continue to attract participants and generate revenue from program fees or facility rentals.
A roof rehabilitation project demonstrates the commitment to maintaining a safe and inviting space for
activities. This can enhance the overall appeal of the community center gym, potentially increasing its utilization. As more individuals and groups utilize the facility, it can lead to increased participation and revenue generation. The increased footfall can also have a positive impact on local businesses, such as nearby restaurants, cafes, or shops, as visitors may utilize these services before or after their activities at the community center.
By investing in a roof rehabilitation project at a community center gym, the city can contribute to its economic strategic plan by ensuring the continuity of services, increasing facility utilization, enhancing reputation, supporting non-profit organizations, and fostering partnerships. These efforts can have a positive impact on revenue generation, community engagement, and the overall economic well-being of our City.

Implementing this rehabilitation project on city-owned properties contributes to our economic strategic plan in several ways. For example by stimulating local economy. Housing rehabilitation projects require hiring contractors, suppliers, and laborers, which injects money into the local economy and creating job opportunities. This project will also increasing property value. By having well-maintained properties with functional, aesthetically pleasing, and modern amenities, the properties tend to have higher market value. By investing in these housing rehabilitation, the city can improve the condition of its properties and attract more potential tenants. City owned properties with well-maintained units and structures contribute to the overall livability and attractiveness of the community. This can help attract businesses, residents, and investors, boosting economic growth and revitalizing neighborhoods. A visually appealing and structurally sound housing can create a positive impression of the city's commitment to infrastructure maintenance and development.
In addition, by addressing housing unit’s issues promptly, the City can avoid more extensive structure repairs, which can be significantly costlier. This proactive approach to maintenance helps save public funds and ensures efficient use of resources.
