RE: Request for investigation into missing police investigation report for case #14-764 Dear Ms. Lowenthal:
I am respectfully requesting the City of Hermosa Beach conduct an investigation into why the Hermosa Beach Police Department does not have an investigation report for case #14-764. Please see attached February 14, 2022 email response from Acting Captain Landon Phillips. (Exhibit A.) A then-Lt. Phillips made official statements regarding my case:
• In 2017, he made false statements to the Easy Reader News about my case while I was serving as a City official during my campaign for City Council. • In 2020, he made false statements to the FBI about my case while I was serving as a contractor with Naval Special Warfare, and a reservist with SEAL Team SEVENTEEN.
How is it even possible for the Hermosa Beach Police Department not to have this investigation report? A then-Lt. Phillips while being interviewed by the FBI shared my case. Most likely, he had to give the full case file to the special agent conducting the investigation on me.
Please advise if the City of Hermosa Beach will conduct an investigation as to why the Hermosa Beach Police Department does not have the investigation report for case #14-764.
Very Respectfully,
Matt McCool

Dear City Clerk -
Please accept this as a written communication to the city council START WRITTEN COMMUNICATION HERE:
Date: June 7, 2022
Subject: Using eComment to improve public participation access for non agenda items Dear Councilmembers
In the earlier email I point out that eComment is a useful tool to solicit more timely public comment. I received no response.
Plan Hermosa makes numerous references to elements of good governance that encourages the broadest possible public participation.
For instance page 48 of Plan Hermosa says:
The Hermosa Beach community prides itself on being highly active in its own governance, and the City is committed to actively seeking public participation.
Conversely, our City Manager has clearly stated her desire to mute and minimize public participation as it relates to written communications to the City Council on non agenda items.
Not only did she recommend disallowing written communications on non agenda items but she recommended that written communications be limited to the number of words that could be said in 3 minutes.
This is a thinly veiled effort to mute detailed criticism and firmly control the narrative.
It’s simply oppressive tactic.
There is an easy improvement the city could make.
The current policy requires written communications to be submitted one week in advance of the council meeting.
An eComment button under the Public Participation section of the Council meeting agenda would allow written comments on non agenda items just hours before the meeting and after the agenda has been published.
The picture below shows this has already been implemented in granicus in the planning commission agenda.
I used this eComment feature (see red aarow below) to make an eComment on a Planning Commission non-agenda item without any technical problems.
Why can’t this feature that allows for more timely public comment on non agenda items be implemented for council meetings too? See red arrow below

Subject: Re: Written Communication to City Council on HBPD handling Reckless driving and doughnuts on Hermosa Ave Date: Tuesday, June 7, 2022 11:53:22 AM
On Edit below. Sorry
Dear City Clerk,
Please add this item as my second written communication to the city council START WRITTEN COMMUNICATION HERE:
June 7, 2022
Dear Council Members
Subject: Re: Reckless driving and doughnuts on Hermosa Ave I saw a crime report recently where drivers were doing
doughnuts on Hermosa Ave.
Personally I believe the city needs to crack down on
street take-overs, racing, doing doughnuts on Hermosa
Ave and all other forms of reckless driving.
The crime report I read left me with the impression that the perpetrators were not arrested nor were their vehicles impounded.
The crime report said the drivers were just issued tickets, the HBPD was praised for their quick response (self
assessment?) and then the officers sent the offenders on their way.
At least that is what I thought I read!
Well if so the HBPD may as well have
pulled out a welcome mat for reckless
unruly drivers!
26 My cursory understanding is that the HBPD under the
CVC could have arrested the drivers for reckless driving and impounded the vehicles AND failing to do so just
sent the message that racing, doing doughnuts on
Hermosa Ave the aggressive driving of obnoxiously loud
vehicles up and down our streets at all hours of the night would be tolerated with minimal consequences.
Here is the CVC 23109.2 section I’m referring to. If my interpretation of the law and the facts surrounding this crime is correct; and these reckless drivers could have been arrested and had their vehicles impounded then I
would like to know why this wasn’t done?
The council needs to publicly ask Chief Lebaron why this wasn’t done and tell the Chief and our community at large that any form of reckless driving WILL result in an arrest, an arrest record and not just a ticket and vehicle impoundment not a slap on the wrist.
23109.2. (a) (1) Whenever a peace officer determines
that a person was engaged in any of the activities set
forth in paragraph (2), the peace officer may
immediately arrest and take into custody that person
and may cause the removal and seizure of the motor
vehicle used in that offense in accordance with Chapter 10 (commencing with Section 22650). A motor vehicle
so seized may be impounded for not more than 30 days.
(2) (A) A motor vehicle speed contest, as described in
subdivision (a) of Section 23109.
(B) Reckless driving on a highway, as described in
subdivision (a) of Section 23103.
(C) Reckless driving in an offstreet parking facility, as described in subdivision (b) of Section 23103.
If I got my facts wrong and the drivers were arrested
and/or vehicles impounded I apologize profusely.
While I understand that you might not want to saddle an obviously sober wideeyed teenager with an arrest record for reckless driving; many of the drivers I see speeding up and down our streets are full blown adults and I believe in most cases the city should take a hard stand of any reckless driving in our city; and the perpetrators should be punished with an arrest and vehicle impoundment. 27 We don’t need to be pulling out the welcome mat for
reckless drivers and obnoxiously loud vehicles that
plague our residential neighborhoods at all hours of
the night AND the City Council needs to weigh in on
this with Chief LeBaron.

REPORT 22-0377
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of June 14, 2022
ADOPTION OF THE 2022-23 APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
(Finance Director Viki Copeland)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council adopt a Resolution approving and adopting the annual Appropriations Limit for the Fiscal Year 2022-23.
Executive Summary:
In 1979, the State of California adopted appropriations limits on state and local governments and in 1990 updated the method of limit calculation. Each year, staff presents to City Council a resolution to approve and adopt the City’s annual appropriations limit.
Background:
On November of 1979, Article XIII B of the California State Constitution was adopted by the voters through Proposition 4. This Article established appropriations limits on state and local governments using a formula for appropriation of revenue from tax proceeds.
On June 5, 1990, Proposition 111 modified this method of calculating the limit, beginning with fiscal year 1990-91, to allow the City to choose the most beneficial of two adjustment factors for inflation and population as follows:
Inflation
California Per Capita Personal Income Change
or
Increase in Non-Residential Assessed Valuation Due to New Construction Population
City Population Growth
or
County Population Growth
Proposition 111 also implemented a requirement that the Appropriation Limit be reviewed annually by City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 3 Printed on 9/12/2022

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0377
Proposition 111 also implemented a requirement that the Appropriation Limit be reviewed annually by the City’s Independent Auditor.
Analysis:
The 2022-23 limit was calculated, per the League of California Cities Uniform Guidelines, by applying the population and inflation factors to the prior year limit. The County of Los Angeles’ population change of -0.71 percent was used as the population growth factor since the decrease is less than the City’s population change of -1.09 percent. The California Per Capita Personal Income Change of 7.55 percent was used as the inflation factor since the increase in Non-Residential Assessed Valuation Due to New Construction is 0.98 percent. The factor with the largest change is always chosen to give the City maximum discretion with regard to appropriations.
The law requires adoption of the 2022-23 limit by resolution and a recorded vote of the Council to select annual adjustment factors. The choice is set forth in the attached resolution.
The limit calculation will be reviewed by the City’s auditors during the annual financial audit.
General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa, the City’s long-range planning document, was adopted by the City Council in August 2017, and envisions a future where “Hermosa Beach is the small town others aspire to be; a place where our beach culture, strong sense of community, and commitment to sustainability intersect.” One of the guiding principles to achieve the vision is to make decisions and take actions that help contribute to the City’s economic and fiscal stability.
This report and associated recommendations have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant policies are listed below:
Governance Element

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of June 14, 2022
2020-21 ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT (ACFR)
(Including Report from Independent Auditor)
(Finance Director Viki Copeland)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council receive and file the 2020-21 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), which includes the report from Gruber and Lopez, Inc., formerly Gruber and Associates, the City’s independent auditors.
Executive Summary:
For the 2020-21 fiscal year, the City again received an unmodified opinion, which indicates that the auditor believes the financial statements present a fair picture of the financial position of the City. The unmodified opinion is the highest level opinion the City can receive. The opinion asserts that the City is in compliance with all Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requirements.
Since comparative information for the General Fund for 2019-20 and 2020-21 is not included in the Annual Report, it is presented in the analysis section. Some of the comments from the Transmittal Letter and Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), located in the Financial Section of the ACFR, are repeated herein for the purpose of having this staff report stand alone.
Overall, General Fund Revenue increased by 3.9 percent and expenditures decreased by 1.8 percent. Revenue was higher than budget by 5.8 percent; expenditures were under budget by 9.1 percent. The year-end transfer of unspent funds in the General Fund was temporarily put on hold due to the unknown impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of the Midyear Budget Review on March 8, 2022, staff recommended assigning unspent General Funds from 2020-21 of $5,834,252 for the 2022-23 Budget process, at which time it would be determined if the funds need to remain in the General Fund or should transfer to meet funding goals, in accordance with the City’s financial policies. Ultimately, the 2022-23 Preliminary Budget recommends that unspent funds remaining from Fiscal Year 2020-21 be used for the following:
· $18,362 to increase the assigned Compensated Absences balance to the funding goal of 25 City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 12 Printed on 9/12/2022 powered by Legistar™ 90
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0362
percent of the accrued liability for employee vacation, sick, and compensatory time; · $278,031 to increase the Insurance Fund’s net position to the funding goal of $3 million for claims above recorded claims liabilities or catastrophic losses; · $333,645 to increase the Equipment Replacement Fund balance to the funding goal, which is to maintain net position equal to the accumulated amount calculated on the equipment replacement schedules for all equipment based on replacement cost and useful life; · $2,602,107 to the Capital Projects Fund to fund 2022-23 Capital Improvement Projects (CIPs) and future CIP funding needs; and
· The remaining $2,602,107 from FY2020-21 would be reserved for use in the 2023-24 Budget.
Background:
Annually, the City has a financial audit performed by an independent, certified public accounting (CPA) firm. The auditor’s report is located on pages 1-3 in the Financial Section of the Annual Report.
The City entered into an agreement with a new audit firm, Gruber and Associates, now Gruber and Lopez, Inc., on May 28, 2019 after selection through the Request for Proposals (RFP) process. This is the third year of the three-year contract, with options to extend an additional two years.
The increased Finance Department workload due to staffing challenges, labor negotiations, and the continued implementation of an online budgeting system pushed the annual audit and issuance of the financial statements later than normal. An extension on the submission date was received from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) and the report was submitted to qualify for the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting. The City received the award for the 2020-21 Annual Report and has received the award since 1990.
The award program requires a high level of compliance with governmental standards, inclusion of information well beyond the general-purpose financial statements and an unmodified audit opinion.
There were several new Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) statements effective for fiscal year 2020-21, but none of them significantly impacted the City’s financial statements.
Historical Note: In 2014-15, the City implemented GASB 68 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pension and GASB 71, Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date- an amendment of GASB Statement No 68 and in 2017-18, the City implemented GASB 75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions. The main impact to the financial statements is the recording of the net pension and OPEB liabilities in the government-wide financial statements. There is no impact to the individual fund financial statements such as the General Fund. While GASB 68 and 75 implemented changes to the accounting and reporting of net pension and OPEB liabilities, neither impact the way pension and OPEB liabilities are funded. Since the net pension and OPEB liabilities are payable over an extended time horizon, they do not represent a claim on current financial resources.

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0362
Historical Note: GASB 54 Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, GASB 54 Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, implemented in 2012-13, established fund classifications based upon constraints imposed on the use of resources in governmental funds. The primary initial impact of this classification change is that funds previously held separately, the Contingency Fund, Compensated Absences Fund, and the Retirement Stabilization Fund are now shown in the General Fund in the “Committed” or “Assigned” categories on page 25, the Balance Sheet for Governmental Funds. The City’s policy for these funds shows on pages 50-51 in Note 1 of the Annual Report and the detailed amounts show in Note 11 on page 75.
Also, as a helpful reminder in reading the ACFR, the GASB 34 reporting model that was implemented in 2002 dictates the following:
· Requires presentation of financial information in specific formats, namely, the Government Wide Financial Statements, beginning on page 19. These statements are designed to show net assets and equity of the City as a whole and to provide information on the cost of services and show how programs are financed;
· Requires Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) to present financial highlights and assess performance for the year;
· Requires reporting on “major” funds rather than aggregate fund types; and · Requires accrual accounting (in the Government Wide Statements) for all governmental funds, meaning that long term assets and liabilities (such as capital assets, including infrastructure) are included in addition to short term assets and liabilities. All revenues and all costs of providing services are also reported, not just those received or paid in the fiscal year or soon after year-end.
Analysis:
Since comparative information for the General Fund for 2019-20 and 2020-21 is not included in the ACFR, it is presented in the following pages. Some of the comments from the MD&A and Transmittal letter, as mentioned above, are repeated herein for the purpose of having this staff report stand alone. Additional information and analysis can be found in the Transmittal Letter starting on page v and in the MD&A starting on page 5.

REPORT 22-0362
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)
Transient occupancy tax decreased 1.2 percent over 2019-20. In November 2019, residents voted to increase the TOT rate from 12 percent to 14 percent, effective January 1, 2020, however due to the pandemic, TOT revenue declined despite the increase in tax rate. Hotel occupancy decreased 18.7 percent over 2019-20 due to COVID-19 closures and stay at home orders. Average occupancy was
44.6 percent in 2020-21; occupancy was 63.4 percent in 2019-20.
Utility User Tax (UUT)
The City transfers $700,000 in Utility User Tax revenue annually to the Storm Drain Fund for operations and maintenance. Consistent with prior year, the $700,000 transfer from the General Fund was recorded as UUT revenue instead of a transfer in the Storm Drain Fund for financial statement reporting purposes. UUT was up overall by $77,635 or 3.7 percent in 2020-21.
Licenses and Permits
The License and Permit category increased by 24 percent primarily due to an increase in building permits.
Fines and Forfeitures
Fines and Forfeitures decreased by 1.4 percent in 2020-21. Staff vacancies and duties other than parking contributed to the decrease.
Use of Money and Property
Use of Money and Property decreased by 22.4 percent in 2020-21, primarily due to decline in rental income, including the Community Center and Theater rentals.

REPORT 22-0362
Service Charges
Service Charges show a decrease of 1.4 percent. Revenue was down due to encroachments and ambulance transports. On March 24, 2020, the City Council approved the temporary suspension of fees for restaurant encroachments and the fees remained suspended for the remainder of the fiscal year. The encroachment fees continued to be suspended for 2020-21. Recreation related service charges increased over 2019-20 as programing resumed.
Interest
Interest decreased by 112.7 percent due to the decline in interest rates and the recording of an unrealized loss on investments of $164,636 in 2020-21. An unrealized gain of $150,299 was previously recorded in 2019-20. Unrealized losses and gains are on paper only since the City holds investments to maturity.

GENERAL FUND
Expenditures were 9.1 percent under budget and show a decrease of 1.8 percent from the prior year due to the following:
· The Legislative and Legal increase of 13.4 percent is primarily due to the May 2021 special election to fill a vacancy on the City Council;
· The General Government decrease of 8.5 percent is primarily due to staffing vacancies and one-time costs in 2019-20 including increased contract services costs related to a consultant for the TOT ballot measure, temporary staffing in the Finance Department due to staff out on leave, and North School Traffic Plan costs. Additionally, Public Information Officer (PIO) costs were shifted at the end of 2019-20 and into 2020-21 from the City’s Manager’s Department in City of Hermosa Beach Page 8 of 12 Printed on 9/12/2022 powered by Legistar™ 97

were shifted at the end of 2019-20 and into 2020-21 from the City’s Manager’s Department in the General Fund to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Fund for expenditures related to the City’s COVID-19 emergency response; · The Public Safety increase of 0.7 percent is due to increased retirement costs for the legacy fire department PERS plans; and
· Capital Outlay decreased by 88.68 percent due to the payment to the County for the Fire Facility being paid from the Capital Improvement Fund in 2020-21 instead of the General Fund. Additionally, fewer CIPs were funded from the General Fund in 2020-21.
General Fund Unspent Funds
The policy of transferring unspent funds in the General Fund to the Insurance Fund, Equipment Replacement Fund (ERF) and Compensated Absences Fund was implemented in 1995-96 to build equity and provide funds for amounts owed to employees for accumulated leave. The policy was changed in 1998-99 to discontinue allocating funds to the Compensated Absences Fund (since the target amount was reached), to create a Capital Improvement Fund for street and other capital improvements and to include a goal for Contingency funds in the policy. The Contingency Policy was changed from 15 percent of appropriations for operating funds to 16 percent in 2013-14 in keeping with best practices.
The City Council amends the policy, as necessary, when goals or targets are met and depending on where funds are needed. For several years, funds available at year-end were transferred to the Insurance Fund to cover estimated insurance claims liabilities and the oil settlement agreement.
From 2013-14 to 2015-16, funds available at year-end were transferred to the Capital Improvement Fund. The 2016-17 and 2017-18 transfers were to the Insurance Fund to help cover the 2016-17 oil settlement agreement and 2017-18 liability claims settlements. In 2018-19, the Insurance Fund was at the funding goal of $3,000,000 so the year-end transfer was made to the Capital Improvement Fund and half was assigned for the newly created Capital Facilities Reserve.
Due to the sudden uncertainty from the COVID-19 pandemic, 2019-20 unspent funds were temporarily held in the General Fund. The 2021-22 Adopted Budget transferred unspent funds from prior years to the Capital Improvement Fund to provide funding for future Capital Improvement Projects, increase the Capital Facilities Reserve, and establish a reserve for the remaining Fire Facility payments to the County for the newly renovated fire station.
As previously noted, the 2022-23 Preliminary Budget on tonight’s agenda recommends that unspent funds remaining from Fiscal Year 2020-21 be used for the following:
· $18,362 to increase the assigned Compensated Absences balance to the funding goal of 25 City of Hermosa Beach Page 9 of 12 Printed on 9/12/2022 powered by Legistar™ 98

REPORT 22-0362
percent of the accrued liability for employee vacation, sick, and compensatory time; · $278,031 to increase the Insurance Fund’s net position to the funding goal of $3 million for claims above recorded claims liabilities or catastrophic losses; · $333,645 to increase the Equipment Replacement Fund balance to the funding goal, which is to maintain net position equal to the accumulated amount calculated on the equipment replacement schedules for all equipment based on replacement cost and useful life; · $2,602,107 to the Capital Projects Fund to fund 2022-23 Capital Improvement Projects (CIPs) and future CIP funding needs; and
· The remaining $2,602,107 from FY2020-21 would be reserved for use in the 2023-24 Budget.
Insurance Fund
The net position in the Insurance Fund is under the funding goal of $3,000,000 at year end. The balance at June 30, 2020 was under the funding of $3 million due to transfers to the General Fund to assist in balancing the budget at year-end. There was an increase in attorney fees in addition to an increase in claims/settlement expenses of $953,264 in the litigation account. Additionally, claims expenses and adjustments for actuarially determined claims payable were higher than expected, resulting in the ending balance of $1,103,110.
Other primary expenses in the Insurance Fund are related to workers’ compensation claims, general liability claims and litigation. Claims payments for workers’ compensation were higher by $91,523 and liability cases were higher by $139,940 in 2019-20. Year-end liabilities are established annually through actuarial studies performed by the Independent Cities Risk Management Authority’s independent actuary. The total overall claims expense is higher by $397,712, largely due to an increase in year-end liability recorded in the Worker’s Compensation Division.

General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa, the City’s long-range planning document, was adopted by the City Council in August 2017, and envisions a future where “Hermosa Beach is the small town others aspire to be; a place where our beach culture, strong sense of community, and commitment to sustainability intersect.” One of the guiding principles to achieve the vision is to make decisions and take actions that help contribute to the City’s economic and fiscal stability.
A focus of the Governance chapter in the General Plan is to ensure that decision-making and leadership are conducted in an ethical, transparent, and innovative manner that reflects community values. Goal 1 of the Governance chapter speaks to maintaining a high degree of transparency and integrity in the decision-making process.
Other relevant General Plan policies are listed below:
Infrastructure Element

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council and Citizens of Hermosa Beach, California:
Introduction
Presented herein is the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of Hermosa Beach for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. The report is intended to update readers on the status of the City’s financial position and results of operations for the past fiscal year.
Management's representations concerning the finances of the City of Hermosa Beach are contained herein.
Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all of the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the City of Hermosa Beach has established an internal control framework that is designed both to protect the government's assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City of Hermosa Beach’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City of Hermosa Beach’s framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.
Audit
The City of Hermosa Beach’s financial statements have been audited by Gruber and Lopez, Inc., a firm of licensed certified public accountants. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City of Hermosa Beach for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City of Hermosa Beach’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditors’ report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report.
GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis. This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A) and should be read in conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditor.

Profile of the Government
The City of Hermosa Beach is a beachfront,
bedroom community with a stable
population, located four miles south of Los
Angeles International Airport. The City
occupies 1.4 square miles and serves a
population of 19,451, according to the
State’s latest population estimate.
However as a beach city, the City
experiences a high visitor population and
the associated costs. Due to this high visitor
population, the City operates in many
ways like a larger city. During the 2020–21
fiscal year, beach attendance ranged from a
low of 177,900 in November 2020 to a high
of 953,000 in August 2020, according to the
Los Angeles County Fire Department,
Lifeguard Division. These numbers are
back to a more normal range than the 2019–
20 numbers which sank to a low of 418 in
April 2020 due to COVID-19.
The City of Hermosa Beach, incorporated on January 14, 1907 as a general law city, operates under the Council-Manager form of government. Policy-making and legislative authority are vested in a governing council consisting of five members of the City Council elected on a non-partisan basis at large for a fouryear term, with the exception of elections in 2017 and 2019 for which five-year terms were served.
Council members serve staggered terms, with an election every two years. One member is chosen by fellow members to serve as Mayor for a period of approximately one year (will return to standard term of nine months at the end of 2022 with the return of four-year terms); one is chosen to serve as Mayor Pro Tem. The terms of office for those elected in November of 2017 and 2019 were extended by one year to accommodate the election date change from odd-numbered years to even-numbered years effective November 2022, as approved by the City Council to coincide with County elections.
The Council is responsible for, among other things, establishing policy, passing ordinances, adopting an annual budget; appointing members to various City Commissions and Boards and hiring the City Manager and City Attorney. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the government, and for appointing the heads of the various departments.
The City offers a full range of municipal services, including police, fire protection (provided by Los Angeles County beginning December 30, 2017), community development (planning and zoning), cultural, recreation and parks, maintenance and construction of public improvements, parking and animal control, and general administration. Financial information for the Lighting and Landscaping District, the Lower Pier Avenue Assessment District and the Myrtle Avenue, Loma Drive, Bayview Drive, and Beach Drive Utility Underground Districts are included in the City's financial statements as required by governmental accounting standards.
Selected information from the U.S. Census Bureau’s Quick Facts shown on the following page. 110
vii
The U.S. Census Bureau Quick Facts are as of March 2022. Further data regarding the City may be found in the Statistical Section.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Hermosa Beach’s financial planning and control. All departments of the City of Hermosa Beach are required to submit revenue estimates and requests for appropriations to the Finance Director according to a budget calendar. The Finance Director and City Manager uses these requests as the starting point for developing a proposed budget, which is presented to the City Council for review by May 15. At least one public budget workshop is held prior to the required public hearing, with adoption required no later than June 30. If the City Council fails to adopt a budget by that date, the budget submitted by the City Manager, as amended by the City Council, if applicable, is the appropriated budget except for capital improvement outlays. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund and department (e.g., Police Department). The City Manager may make transfers of appropriations between departments within each fund; transfers of appropriations between funds, however, require the approval of the City Council. The City Council receives monthly revenue and expenditure reports during the year and a midyear budget review is conducted after the first six months of the fiscal year to ensure estimates are on target. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided in this report for each individual governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted.

Factors Affecting Financial Condition
Local economy Just as departments were turning in their budget requests for the 2020-21 Budget in March 2020, the State issued a stay at home order and Hermosa Beach declared a local emergency due to the advent of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). The State’s surplus turned into a deficit and Hermosa Beach’s 2019–20 Budget was suddenly under duress, with departmental budgets just submitted for 2020–21 sent back to the drawing board for reductions and removal of additional requests.
Hermosa Beach is a “bedroom community” as evidenced by a household count of 8,596 and an in-city business count of 1,090 (excluding apartments and home occupations).
Hermosa Beach is very fortunate to have growth of 5.9 percent in secured and unsecured assessed valuation, which compares to Los Angeles County. The 5.9 percent growth was the 18th highest of 88 cities in Los Angeles County. Median home prices in Hermosa Beach as of June 2021 were $1,995,000, compared to $790,000 for Los Angeles County. The Hermosa Beach median home price for June 2020 was $1,937,500, compared to $643,000 for Los Angeles County. The average median home price for Hermosa Beach for fiscal year 2020–21 was $1,909,868 and $1,802,698 for fiscal year 2019–20.
General Fund Secured property taxes increased seven percent in 2020–21, roughly consistent with growth in assessed values. Historically, property adjacent to the beach has held its value better and has grown faster as compared to property in the other areas.
As a beach city, the three highest occupations continue to be management, sales, and administrative support. Residents typically enjoy access to a much more diverse employment base with the close proximity of all of the other cities in Los Angeles County. The unemployment rate in Hermosa Beach as of June 2021 is 7 percent, compared with 10.3 percent for Los Angeles County, and 8 percent for California. City and Los Angeles County rates improved over 2020 rates of 10.2 percent and 19.6 percent respectively while the state rose to 15.1 percent.
Sales tax receipts for 2020–21 are up 17 percent from the prior year primarily due to increases in the Other Retail and County and State Pool categories. The Eating/Drinking category which produces the most sales tax, was hard hit by the closures due to COVID-19. Sales tax from this category declined six percent.
The TOT tax rate increased from 12 percent to 14 percent on January 1, 2020 as a result of a measure placed on the ballot by City Council. Transient occupancy tax (the tax on hotel stays) decreased 12 percent (after adjusting for the rate increase from 12 to 14 percent) from 2019–20 due to COVID closures and stay at home orders. Average occupancy for 2020–21 was 44.7 percent vs. the prior year’s rate of 63.4 percent. The last three months of the fiscal year had average occupancy of 73 percent versus 35 percent the prior year so that is a positive trend. Hermosa Beach has nine hotels, one youth hostel, with room capacities ranging from 17 rooms to 96 rooms. There are also three new short term vacation rentals in the commercial area with four rooms/units.
Utility user tax (UUT) revenue was up 3.7 percent last year and is the fourth highest source of tax revenue at $2.2 million. The largest increase was in the category of cellular phone service and cable television.
See Management’s Discussion and Analysis for more revenue details.
Accounting changes. In 2014–15 the City implemented Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions, which required net pension liabilities to be included in the financial statements for the first time, and Statement No 71, Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date, which was essentially a cleanup provision. Net pension liabilities of $51,477,782 were recorded in 2020–21 and the unrestricted net position was reduced accordingly. The change in accounting standards impacted only the government-wide financial 112
ix
statements, notes, and required supplemental information. There is no impact to the fund financial statements. See Note 9 for more information.
In 2017–18 the City implemented GASB 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions, effective July 1, 2017, which requires net OPEB liabilities to be included in the financial statements for the first time. GASB 75 updates Other Postemployment Benefit (OPEB) accounting and financial reporting standards to be consistent with the pension standard in GASB 68.
Similar to GASB 68, the change in accounting standards impacted only the government-wide financial statements, notes, and required supplemental information. There is no impact to the fund financial statements. See Note 10 for more information.
As a matter of record, the following GASB statements are effective for the June 30, 2021 financial statements. GASB Statement 84, Fiduciary Activities, establishes criteria for identifying fiduciary activities of all state and local governments. GASB Statement 90, Majority Equity Interest, improves the consistency and comparability of reporting a government’s majority interest in a legally separate organization and improves the relevance of financial statements for certain component units.
The City implemented GASB 98, the Comprehensive Financial Report, which establishes the term annual comprehensive financial report and its acronym ACFR, replacing instances of comprehensive annual financial report and its acronym. For more information see Note 1, Section Q- Accounting Changes.
California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). The preliminary CalPERS investment return as of June 2021 was 21.3 percent, bringing the total fund performance to 10.3 percent for the fiveyear period, 8.5 percent for the ten-year period, and 6.9 percent for the twenty-year period. The 2020–21 rate of return triggered a reduction in the discount rate used to calculate employer and Public Employee’s Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) member contributions due to the Funding Risk Mitigation Policy approved in 2015. The Funding Risk Mitigation policy lowers the discount rate in years of good investment returns.
The discount rate, or assumed rate of return, dropped from 7 percent to 6.8 percent. This is the first time the policy has been triggered.
In February 2018, CalPERS adopted a new amortization policy. The new policy applies only to newly established amortization bases and requires fixed dollar (level) amortization rather than percent of pay (escalating). Gains and losses are amortized over 20 rather than 30 year, with a five-year ramp up for investment gains and losses (no ramp down) and no ramp up or down for other amortization bases. The policy minimizes total interest paid over time and pays off UAL faster. It is effective with the June 30, 2019 valuation for 2021–22 contributions.
In December 2017, the CalPERS Board adopted new actuarial assumptions based on the 2017 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions, which impacted the 2019–20 required contributions.
On December 20, 2016, the CalPERS Board approved a change in the discount rate from 7.5 percent to 7 percent over three years. The change is implemented over a three year period beginning in 2018-19.
Lowering the discount rate, also known as the assumed rate of investment return, means that employers will see increases to contribution rates and higher unfunded liability payments. The City’s miscellaneous and safety plans had side funds (which are liabilities that existed in 2003 when CalPERS “pooled” the City’s plans with other cities of similar size) that paid off from 2018-19 to 2019-20 which helped mitigate the rate increases.
The City created a Retirement Stabilization Fund in 2003-04 to plan for anticipated rate increases. This amount now appears as part of the “committed” balance in the General Fund in the amount of $1,021,575.
Funds will be placed in a retirement trust when the budget is back to a more predictable state.
Long-term financial planning. The City’ adopted financial policies address a range of items including accounting and reporting, internal controls, budget, revenue, debt service and investments. The policies are published in the budget and reviewed annually.
113
x
The City Council’s adopted financial policies relating to long-term financial planning for specific funds are as follows:
Insurance Fund—Goal of $3,000,000 in net assets for aberrations in claims reserves and catastrophic losses.
Equipment Replacement Fund—Goal of net assets equal to the accumulated amount calculated for all equipment, based on replacement cost and useful life of equipment.
Contingency—Goal equal to 16 percent of the General Fund appropriations for economic uncertainties, unforeseen emergencies.
Compensated Absences—Goal equal to 25 percent funding for accrued liabilities for employee vacation, sick and compensatory time.
The City also has a financial policy of transferring funds unspent in the General Fund at year-end to the Insurance Fund, Equipment Replacement Fund, Capital Improvement Fund, Capital Facility Reserve, and to add to Contingency Funds as needed. The City Council makes changes as necessary to the year- end transfer, depending on the equity in the funds or based on other needs.
The City had unspent funds of $5,834,252 in 2020–21 as a result of improved revenue and salary savings due to vacant positions and employee leaves. Due to the ongoing economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City Council agreed to leave the unspent funds in the General Fund, with recommendations for use of the funds to be presented as a part of the 2022–23 Preliminary Budget.
Historically as part of the budget process, a five year financial forecast is developed and presented with the Preliminary Budget and Five-Year Capital Improvement Program. The Fiscal Health Model is used as part of the forecast to present scenarios depicting the city’s ability to fund each scenario.
Primary capital projects coming up, (other than street and sewer improvements, which occur every year) include Bus Stop Improvements, Pay-By-App Parking Signage, PCH Mobility Improvement Project, Strand Bikeway and Walkway Improvements at 35th Street, Park Planting Improvements, Prospect Ave Curb Ramps, South Park Slope and Irrigation Repairs, City Wide ADA Improvements, Downtown Lighting Improvements, Downtown Strategic Plan Implementation, New Corporate Yard Facility, Municipal Pier Structural and Electrical Repairs, City Park Restrooms and Renovations, Parking Lot D improvements, Emergency Operations Center Renovations, Clark Building Renovations, 14th Street Beach Restroom Construction, Parking Lot A Improvements, Police Station Improvements, ADA Improvements, and Parking Structure (Lot C) Improvements.
Cash management policies and practices. Temporarily idle cash was invested during the year in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, certificates of deposit, the State Treasurer's investment pool and the Los Angeles County pool. The average maturity was 60 months, with an average weighted yield on investments of 2.2 percent. Investment income includes changes in the fair value of investments. Changes in fair value during the current year, however, do not necessarily represent trends that will continue nor do such amounts necessarily become realized since the City intends to hold the investments to maturity.
Risk management. The City is self-insured up to $250,000 for liability claims. Through a blend of selfinsurance and reinsurance, the City has excess coverage up to $40 million obtained through the Independent Cities Risk Management Authority (ICRMA), a joint powers authority consisting of mediumsized California municipalities. The cost of the insurance depends on both the loss experience of member cities, the loss experience of the City and the City’s payroll size.
The City purchases workers’ compensation coverage through a self-insured program available through ICRMA. The City maintains a $500,000 self-insured retention limit and participates in a self-insured risk sharing pool through the ICRMA, with excess coverage through Safety National Casualty Company, providing coverage up to the statutory limits.
114

Claims defense and settlement are coordinated by third party administrators for both liability and worker's compensation, with oversight by the Human Resources Manager.
Additional information on the City’s risk management activity can be found in Note 8 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.
Pension and other post-employment benefits. The City provides pension benefits to safety and nonsafety employees through the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). CalPERS provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The City was successful in negotiating two tier rates for new employees in all bargaining units beginning in 2011-12. With the State’s pension reform implemented January 1, 2013, the City now has three tiers. As of June 30, 2021, the City has fifty-three (53) active Tier 1 employees, seventeen (17) active Tier 2 employees and seventy-three (73) active employees in Tier 3. The City paid employee contributions as a negotiated benefit for many years however in 2012-13 the City negotiated that employees would begin paying the entire share of the employee contribution over three years with an offsetting increase in salaries, which was achieved as of 2014-15. All of these changes enacted reduce pension costs over time. City employer contributions are actuarially determined on an annual basis.
The City also provides post-employment health care benefits for certain retirees. As of the end of the current fiscal year, there were 69 retirees receiving these benefits.
The City established a trust with an outside party to administer these funds in July 2007. The City is contributing the annual required contribution for all employees as determined by an actuarial study in the manner as is done for retirement contributions to CalPERS. The concept of a retirement trust was approved by City Council in June 2018 and $829,060 from the Police side fund payoff savings was set aside in the 2019–20 to be placed in the retirement trust.
Additional information on the City of Hermosa Beach’s pension arrangements and other postemployment benefits can be found in Notes 9 and 10 in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.

Independent Auditors’ Report
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Hermosa Beach, California (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by Comptroller General of the United States.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of June 30, 2021, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Budgetary Comparison Schedule-General Fund, Budgetary Comparison Schedule-FEMA Special Revenue Fund, Budgetary Comparison Schedule-Capital Improvements Capital Projects Fund, Schedule of Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios, Schedule of Contributions - Pension, Schedule of Changes in Net OPEB Liability and Related Ratios, and Schedule of City’s Contribution - OPEB on pages 5 to 16 and 80 to 88, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The Introductory Section, Combining and Individual Nonmajor Fund Financial Statements and the Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances – Budget and Actual, and Statistical Section, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The Combining and Individual Nonmajor Fund Financial Statements and the Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances – Budget and Actual are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the Combining and Individual Nonmajor Fund Financial Statements and the Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances – Budget and Actual are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The Introductory and Statistical Sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them. 2 120

5 Management's Discussion and Analysis
As management of the City of Hermosa Beach, we offer readers of the City’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Hermosa Beach for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information (particularly with respect to the effect of COVID-19 on financial condition) that is furnished in the letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages v - xii of this report.
Financial Highlights
• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City of Hermosa Beach exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources at the close of the last fiscal year by $60,081,812 (net position). Excluding the $51,477,782 net pension liability, $38,037,706 represents unrestricted net position and may be used to meet the government's ongoing obligations. • The City’s net position decreased by $473,913
• As of June 30, 2021, the City of Hermosa Beach’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $41,914,355, an increase of $6,409,747 in comparison with the prior year. This increase is due to revenue exceeding expenditures in the current year. At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Hermosa Beach’s governmental fund balances of $41,914,355 are comprised of non-spendable funds; $575,897, restricted; $10,427,092 committed; $4,587,847; and assigned; $21,316,310 to indicate that funds are not available for new spending. Although funds are shown in the committed or assigned category, the City Council still does have discretion over the use of these funds and may change the committed or assigned use. Under that scenario, approximately 62 percent, or $25,904,157 of the $41,914,355 in funds could be redirected at the discretion of the City Council. An additional $5,007,209 or 12 percent is unassigned. See Note 11 in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements. At the end of 2020–21, $5,834,252 of unspent funds remained in the General Fund as a result of increased revenue and lower expenditures due to vacancies and employee leaves. Due to the economic uncertainty from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, unspent funds were not transferred to another fund at the end of the fiscal year. The General Fund also has a committed and assigned fund balance of $12,665,093 or 35 percent of total General Fund expenditures.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City of Hermosa Beach’s basic financial statements. The basic financial statements are comprised of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. The report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City of Hermosa Beach’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all the City of Hermosa Beach’s assets plus deferred outflows or resources (“DOR”) and liabilities plus deferred inflows of resources (“DIR”), with the difference between the assets plus DOR and liabilities plus DIR reported as net position. 123
6 Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City of Hermosa Beach is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the government's net positions changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net positions are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned, but unused, vacation leave).
The governmental activities of the City of Hermosa Beach include legislative and legal, general government, public safety, public works, community development, and culture and recreation.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City of Hermosa Beach itself, but also the Lighting and Landscaping District, the Lower Pier Avenue Assessment District and the Myrtle Avenue, Loma Drive, Bayview Drive and Beach Drive Utility Underground Districts. Although these entities are legally separate, they function for all practical purposes as part of the City, and therefore have been included as an integral part of the primary government.
The Government-Wide Financial Statements can be found on pages 19-22 of this report.
Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of Hermosa Beach, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on nearterm inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government's near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City of Hermosa Beach maintains thirty-two individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance for the following funds, which are considered to be a major fund:
General Fund
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Special Revenue Fund Capital Improvement Capital Projects Fund
Major funds are governmental or enterprise funds whose revenues, expenditures/expenses, assets and DOR or liabilities and DIR are at least 10 percent of corresponding totals for all 124
7 governmental or enterprise funds and at least 5 percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined.
Data from the other twenty-nine governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements in the Supplementary Information section in this report.
The City of Hermosa Beach adopts an annual appropriated budget for its funds. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the General Fund, FEMA Special Revenue Fund, and Capital Improvement Capital Projects Fund in the Required Supplementary Information and Supplementary Information sections to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 25-28 of this report.
Proprietary funds. The City of Hermosa Beach maintains one type of proprietary fund.
Internal service funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City of Hermosa Beach’s various functions. The City of Hermosa Beach uses internal service funds to account for its fleet of vehicles, information systems and equipment, and risk management/insurance activities. Because these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Internal service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 31-33 of this report.
Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City of Hermosa Beach’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. Funds of the Lower Pier Avenue, Myrtle Avenue, Loma Drive, Bayview Drive, and Beach Drive Undergrounding Districts are held as fiduciary funds.
The fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on page 37 of this report.
Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.
The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 43-78 of this report.
Required supplementary information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information concerning the City of Hermosa Beach’s major funds. Required supplementary information can be found on pages 80-88 of this report.
Other supplementary information. The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds and internal service funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information. Other supplementary information can be found on pages 97-137 of this report

8 Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. As of June 30, 2021, total assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded total liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $60,081,812. Without the net pension liability of $51,477,782, the net position would be $111,559,594.
The City implemented GASB 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions for the June 30, 2015 financial statements and GASB 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits, for June 30, 2018 financial statements, which require the City to include its net pension and OPEB liabilities in the government-wide financial statements for the first time. Similar to the City’s longterm debt, the net pension and OPEB liabilities are payable over an extended time horizon and do not represent a claim on current financial resources. The statements implement changes to accounting and reporting; they do not apply to the way pensions or other postemployment benefits are funded.
For more information on the implementation of GASB 68 and 75, please refer to Notes 9 and 10 in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.
While the city is now required to show the net pension and OPEB liabilities in the government-wide statements, according to the Governmental Finance Officers Association (GFOA) the underlying factual situation has not changed. Standard and Poor’s (the rating agency who rated the City’s bonds) indicated that GASB 68 will lead to more conservative liability estimates and provide some additional disclosure.
They will continue to focus on commitment to funding, investment performance, trend analysis, affordability, and maintaining plan sustainability. The Annual Required Contribution (ARC) for pension will continue to be reported as the Actuarially Determined Contribution. Standard and Poor’s believes this is an easily recognizable and understandable measure for governments. They currently estimate with what frequency governments fully fund their ARC (which Hermosa Beach does 100 percent of the time).
The major components of GASB 68 and GASB 75 that affect the Statement of Net Position for Government-wide are:
Deferred Outflows of Resources- Includes the deferred pension and OPEB contribution, which is equal to the total amount of the 2020–21 contributions. The contributions are deferred to 2021–22 because the net liability balance is one year in arrears. Also includes changes in assumptions, the difference between projected and actual investment earrings and the difference between the employer contributions and the employer’s proportionate share of contributions (for pensions).
Net Pension and Net OPEB Liabilities (recorded in Long-Term Liabilities) - Represents the actuarially valued liabilities Plans as of June 30, 2020. Deferred Inflows of Resources- Includes changes in assumptions, the difference between the expected and actual earnings on investments (amortized on a straight-line basis over five years), changes in employer’s proportion (for pensions), and differences between employer contributions and the employer’s proportionate share of contributions (for pensions).
The largest portion of the City of Hermosa Beach’s net position, $65,145,247 reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, and equipment). The City of Hermosa Beach uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending.
126
9 A portion of the City of Hermosa Beach’s net position $8,376,641 represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.
Compliance with GASB 68 and GASB 75 require that the City’s net pension and OPEB liabilities are recorded on the Statement of Net Position, which reduces unrestricted net position and creates a negative unrestricted net position or deficit of ($13,440,076). Excluding the $51,477,782 net pension liability $38,037,706 is available to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to residents.
At June 30, 2021, the City is able to report positive balances in all categories of net position for the government as a whole except for unrestricted due to the implementation of GASB 68 and the inclusion of the net pension liability, which will likely remain a long-term liability for several decades. The following is the condensed Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Position for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.
Governmental Activities. Governmental activities decreased the City of Hermosa Beach’s net position by $473,913. Significant elements of this change are as follows:

Governmental Activities
127
10 Revenue for Governmental Activities
Property tax revenue increased $1,381,501 or 7.1 percent, which is in line with continued growth in property values.
Sales Tax revenue increased by $470,385 or 17.3 percent. Sales tax receipts for 2020–21 are up from the prior year primarily due to increases in the Other Retail and County and State Pool categories. The Eating/Drinking category which produces the most sales tax, was hard hit by the closures due to COVID-19. Sales tax from this category declined 6 percent.
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenue decreased $46,846 or 1.8 percent. Reported occupancy rates were down from 63.4 percent for 2019–20 to 44.7 percent in 2020–21.
While the State Stay at Home order due to COVID-19 and pandemic related restrictions greatly impacted this category, revenue was boosted by a new hotel which opened in October 2020, three permitted short-term vacation rentals began paying TOT in the spring, and TOT rate increased from 14 percent from 12 percent. Adjusting the rate in 2019–20 to compare the two years would result in a decrease of 12 percent. The last three months of the year reflected average occupancy of 73 percent versus 35 percent the prior year so this is a positive trend. The rate increase was effective January 1, 2020, so fiscal year 2020–21 was the first full fiscal year under the new rate. Utility User Tax was up $77,635 or 3.7 percent. The largest increase was in the category of cellular phone service and cable television.
Capital Grants & Contributions decreased by 787.827 or 94.5 percent due to limited Capital Improvement Project (CIP) activity due to COVID-19 and staffing constraints. Real Property Transfer Tax increased $140,265 or 44.8 percent due to the sale of two large condominiums.
Miscellaneous revenue decreased $754,730 or 50 percent. In 2019–20, there was one-time prior year reimbursement of $203,000 in the Insurance Fund. Additionally, in 2020-21, Community Center Rentals declined due to COVID-19 related restrictions and interest income decreased due to lower interest rates.

11 Expenses for Governmental Activities
Expenses for Governmental Activities increased by $856,933 or 1.9 percent.
Legislative and Legal expenses increased by $224,367 or 13.6 percent due to the May 2021 special election to fill a vacant position on the City Council.
Public Safety expenses increased by $1,396,349 or 5.5 percent. When comparing Public Safety expenditures in the Statement of Revenue, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance, Public Safety expenditures are up by $479,484 from 2019-20, primarily due an increase in the unfunded accrued liability payment (UAL) for Fire retirement costs, the annual increase to the Fire Services Contract, purchases of body cameras and a new contract for unmanned aerial support program.
Community Development expenses decreased by $489,506 or 15.2 percent. The increase is primarily due to the GASB 68 and 75 recording of the department’s share of the pension and OPEB obligation adjustments. When comparing Community Development expenditures from the Statement of Revenue, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance, Community Development expenditures are up by $36,877 over 2019–20.
Culture and Recreation expenses decreased by $295,843 or 15.8 percent primarily due to a full year of reduced programming as a result of the pandemic.
The remaining functional expense categories had minor changes over the prior year. General increased by $159,968 or 2.7 percent. Public Works expenses decreased by $243,144 or 3.2 percent.
Interest and fiscal charges increased in 2020–21 in the amount of $104,742 or 35.4 percent.

12 Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds
As noted earlier, the City of Hermosa Beach uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental funds. The focus of the City of Hermosa Beach’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spending resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City of Hermosa Beach’s financing requirements. These funds are accounted for by using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Types of governmental funds reported by the City include the General Fund, Special Revenue funds, and Capital Projects funds.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Hermosa Beach’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $41,914,355, an increase of $6,409,747 in comparison with the prior fiscal year. See Note 11 for more information. The total fund balances of the governmental funds consist of the following:
Non-spendable fund balance of $575,897 represents prepaid items, primarily comprised of the July 2021 payment to the County for Fire Services.
Restricted fund balance of $10,427,092 which have restrictions imposed by external parties or enabling legislation. Funds in this category include Lighting District Funds, Gas Tax Funds, Proposition A and C Transportation Funds, Measure R, M and W Funds, Asset Forfeiture Funds, Supplemental Law Enforcement Funds (COPS), Fire Protection Funds, and Sewer and Storm Drain Funds.
Committed fund balance of $4,587,847 which includes retirement stabilization funds and reserves for a retirement trust.
Assigned fund balance of $21,316,310 which includes the amounts to be used for specific purposes of the City, but that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Funds in 130
13 this category include Contingency funds (“rainy day” funds), Compensated Absences funds, Capital Projects, Capital Improvements, Capital Facilities Reserve, and Storm Drain funds. Unassigned fund balance of $5,007,209, which is the unspent funds of $5,834,252 in the General Fund reduced by a due to other funds liability of $827,043 primarily for COVID-19 related claims in the FEMA Fund.
The General Fund, FEMA Special Revenue Fund, and Capital Improvement Capital Projects Fund qualified as major funds under the GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements – and Management Discussion and Analysis – for State and Local Governments, reporting criteria.
The General Fund balance increased in 2020-21 by $6,374,516. The fund balance primarily increased due to $5,834,252 in unspent funds that remained in the fund balance at year end instead of being transferred to the Capital Improvement, Insurance, or Equipment Replacement Funds.
Overall General Fund revenue increased by 3.9 percent over 2019–20, which was greatly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and stay at home orders the final four months of the year. The increase is a result of the following: an increase in property taxes of 7.3 percent, an increase in sales tax of
17.3 percent; an increase in other taxes of 1.6 percent, an increase in licenses and permits of 23.9 percent, and an increase in miscellaneous of 97.8 percent. The increases were partially offset by a decrease in fines and forfeitures of 1.4 percent, a decrease in use of money and property of 22.4 percent, a decrease in intergovernmental of 20.8 percent, and a decrease in charges for services of
1.4 percent.
General Fund expenditures show a decrease of 1.8 percent. The decrease is primarily due to General Government, Culture and Recreation, and Capital Outlay. In an effort to balance the 2020–21 budget after revenue declines as a result of COVID-19, 10 vacant positions were frozen, two positions in General Government, Deputy City Manager and Management Analyst. The part-time Senior Account Clerk position was also eliminated. The Assistant to the City Manager position was later frozen in place of the Deputy City Manager position. The Community Resources department had reduced expenditures due to reduced programing as a result of the pandemic. Capital Projects were not funded from the General Fund. Legislative and Legal expenditures increased in 2020–21 primarily due to the May 2021 special election held to fill a vacant City Council seat.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The COVID-19 pandemic and related stay at home orders occurred just after the initial 2020–21 budget estimates were prepared. City staff revised all revenue and reduced expenditures and supplemental requests. Ten (10) staff positions were frozen for 2020–21.
The final amended budget for revenue other than transfers increased by 5 percent from the adopted budget, based on revenue trends from the first five months of the year. Actual revenue exceeded the final budget by $2,323,207 or 5.8 percent for the following reasons:
Property tax was up $535,503 or 2.7 percent.
Other taxes were up $721,141 or 8 percent due to conservative year end estimates for TOT.
Hotel occupancy rebounded from the 30 percent assumption based on the prior year. Fines and Forfeitures were up $151,332 or 7.7 percent primarily due to count fines/parking. 131
14 Charges for Services were up $1,030,210 or 20.5 percent due to conservative year end budget reductions for parking related revenue and contract recreation classes and other recreation programs.
While it is good news that actual revenue exceeded the final budget by 5.8 percent, revenue is still $1,171,316 below 2018–19 or 2.8 percent.
The final amended budget for appropriations other than Transfers Out increased over the original budget by 2 percent. Actual expenditures other than Transfers Out were less than the final appropriations by 9.1 percent primarily due to vacant positions and unspent capital improvement program and one-time funds.
Capital Asset and Debt Administration
Capital assets. The City of Hermosa Beach’s net investment in capital assets for its governmental activities as of June 30, 2021, amounts to $65,145,247 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings and structures, improvements, machinery and equipment, park facilities, roads, highways, and monuments.
Capital asset events during the fiscal year included the following:
Governmental Activities
Hermosa Ave Green Street Improvements of $137,500.
Storm Drain Improvements of $173,390.
Council Chamber Improvements of $169,829.
Additional information on the City of Hermosa Beach’s capital assets can be found in Note 6.
Sewer Fund
City Council approved a transfer of $3,000,000 from the Sewer Fund to the General Fund as a part of the 2020–21 Adopted Budget. This allowed the City to not use any contingency funds to cover the anticipated revenue shortfall due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The transfer along with sewer improvements and the annual costs to maintain the City’s sewers net against revenue of $1,315,911 resulted in a decrease in the fund balance of $2,193,538. The ending fund balance in the Sewer Fund is $3,134,046.
Capital Improvement Fund
Projects funded from the Capital Improvement Fund in 2020-21 include: Fire Station Rehabilitation, PCH Traffic Improvements, Storm Drain Improvements, Citywide ADA Improvements, Downtown Strategic Plan Implementation, Police Facilities Improvements, New Corporate Yard Facilities, Parking Structure Assessment, Municipal Pier Electrical Repairs, Clark Building Renovations, and City Park Restroom Renovations. The fund balance decreased by $716,214. The ending fund balance of $8,550,329 includes $1,267,968 in the Capital Facilities Reserve.
Insurance Fund
The City’s established goal for net position in the Insurance Fund is $3,000,000. The balance at June 30, 2020 was under the funding of $3 million due to transfers to the General Fund at year-end. Claims expenses and adjustments for actuarially determined claims payable were higher than expected, resulting in the ending balance of $1,103,110.

15 Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Rates
On April 25, 2017, the City Council voted to contract fire services in Hermosa Beach with the Los Angeles County Consolidated Fire District. The 2021–22 Budget includes the fourth full year with the County, equipment conversion costs, and payments for the renovation of the Fire Department facility. The 2021–22 Budget also includes the following:
o $6,778,522 is committed for Contingency in the General Fund, which is 16 percent of operating expenditures and in line with our financial policy and the Council goal for a “Financially Sound City Government”. No funds from the Contingency were used to offset any impact of COVID-19.
o $2,310,878 is transferred to the General Fund from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021 Fund to partially restore staffing to pre-pandemic levels and for the provision of public safety to the extent of the reduction in revenue due to the COVID-19 health emergency.
o $661,345 is transferred from the General Fund for the 2020 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds debt service. The 2015 Lease Revenue Bonds were refunded in 2020–21, saving approximately $1 million over the life of the bonds.
o $19.5 million of Capital Improvement Projects are funded, which includes $3.2 million in new funding. CIP projects will continue to move forward. o Healthcare benefits are assumed to increase nine percent for medical and four percent for dental. The actual rates are typically lower than the assumed increase.
Revenue Trends and Assumptions
What a difference a year makes. In June 2021, the City unemployment rate was 6.2 percent versus June 2020 of 11.4 percent. Los Angeles County was 10 percent versus 17.8 percent as of June 2021. The State’s unemployment was 8.2 percent versus. 14.2 percent in June 2020. The State’s surplus has grown to $76 billion according to the Governor’s Office or $38 billion according to the Legislative Analyst’s Office.
Either amount is miraculous compared to the projected $54.3 billion deficit for last year.
There are encouraging changes occurring locally with respect to businesses re-opening, the continuation of enhanced outdoor dining, the virus receding and the ability to move about more freely.
All of these are hopeful signs of a recovery in progress. Since there is no precedent for projecting revenue under these pandemic circumstances, we are moving forward cautiously. Preliminary revenue estimates for 2021–22 suggest an increase of four percent, excluding one-time funds.
Property tax, the largest and most stable source of revenue is projected to increase by 3.3 percent. With the seventeen percent increase in sales tax and increased occupancy in hotels, a recovery seems likely.
Utility user tax revenue has been relatively stable.
The City Council adopted several measures to assist the community and businesses early on during the stay-at-home order. Additional measures adopted in 2020–21 include:
Business License Taxes were deferred for those closed from March 2020 forward with refunds given to those who paid but were subsequently closed.
133
16 Restaurant encroachments fees continued to be suspended until further notice. Temporary permits developed for outdoor dining and outdoor dining areas expanded to assist restaurants were extended through May 2022.
Temporary moratoriums on foreclosures and evictions implemented for those affected by COVID-19 were extended through September 2021.
The City’s ongoing goal is to continue offering the same level of service, to the degree possible, that the community expects.

Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet
to the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position
June 30, 2021
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position were reported differently because:
Deferred amounts relates to pension not available for current expenditures and are not reported in the governmental fund financial statements:
Net pension liability is not due and payable in the current period and therefore is not reported in the governmental funds.
Deferred amounts relates to other postemployment benefits not available for current expenditures and are not reported in the governmental fund financial statements:
Net OPEB asset is not due and payable in the current period and therefore is not reported in the governmental funds.
Capital assets used in governmental activities were not current financial resources.
Therefore, they were not reported in the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet.
Internal Service Funds were used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as insurance and equipment replacement to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of the Internal Service Funds were included in the governmental activities in the Government-wide Statement of Net Position.
Revenues in the Government-wide Statement of Activities that do not provide current financial resources and are not reported as revenue in the governmental funds.
Long-term liabilities are not due and payable in the current period and accordingly are not reported as fund liabilities. All liabilities, both current and long-term, are reported in the Statement of Net Position:
Compensated absences, net of $4,530 reported in Internal Service fund and $76,735 reported in accrued payroll

The net effect on disposal of capital assets.
Depreciation expense of capital assets is reported in the Government-wide Statement of Activities, but Earned but unavailable revenues reported in the governmental funds balance sheet as deferred inflows of resources should be recognized in the Government-wide Statement of Activities as revenue regardless of availability.
Certain pension expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Certain other postemployment benefit expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Compensated absences were reported in the Government-wide Statement of Activities, but they did not require the use of current financial resources. Therefore, compensated absences were not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The basic financial statements of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, (the “City”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The following is a summary of the City’s significant policies:
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The City was incorporated on January 14, 1907, under the General Laws of the State of California. The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government and provides the following services: public safety (police, crossing guards and fire), maintenance and construction of public improvements, cultural, recreation, community development (planning and zoning), and general administrative services.
The basic financial statements present the City and its component units, entities for which the City is considered to be financially accountable. The City is considered to be financially accountable for an organization if the City appoints a voting majority of that organization’s governing body and either the City is able to impose its will on that organization or there is a potential for the organization to provide financial benefits to or impose specific financial burdens on the City. The City is also considered to be financially accountable for an organization if that organization is fiscally dependent (i.e., it is unable to adopt its budget, levy taxes, set rates or charges, or issue bonded debt without approval from the City). In certain cases, other organizations are included as component units if the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that their exclusion would cause the City’s financial statement to be misleading or incomplete. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are in substance, part of the City’s operations and data from these units are combined with data of the City.
Management determined that the following entities should be reported as blended component units based on the criteria above. Each blended component unit has a June 30 year-end, has a governing board that is substantially the same as the City’s, there is a financial benefit or burden relationship between the City and the blended component unit, and the City is financially accountable for each of the blended component units.
Hermosa Beach Street Lighting and Landscaping District – The Hermosa Beach Street Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District was created for street lighting/median maintenance purposes pursuant to Street and Highway Code Sections 22500-22679.
Lower Pier Avenue Assessment District – The Lower Pier Avenue Assessment District was created for improvement of the assessment district in November 1997 pursuant to Street and Highway Code Section 10000.
Myrtle Avenue Underground Utility District – The Myrtle Avenue Underground Utility District was created in October 1999 pursuant to Street and Highway Code Section 10000.
Loma Drive Underground Utility District – The Loma Drive Underground Utility District was created in October 1999 pursuant to Street and Highway Code Section 10000.
Beach Drive Assessment District – The Beach Drive Assessment District was created in July 2004 pursuant to Street and Highway Code Section 10000.
Bayview Drive Underground District – The Bayview Drive Underground District was created in February 2005 pursuant to Street and Highway Code Section 10000.
Hermosa Beach Public Financing Authority – The Hermosa Beach Public Financing Authority was created on July 14, 2015 to authorize the issuance and sale of 2015 Lease Revenue Bonds.
The above component units do not issue separate financial statements. 43 161
City of Hermosa Beach
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. City resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
The Statement of Net Position reports separate sections for Deferred Outflows of Resources, and Deferred Inflows of Resources, when applicable.
Deferred Outflows of Resources represent outflows of resources (consumption of net position) that apply to future periods and that, therefore, will not be recognized as an expense until that time.
Deferred Inflows of Resources represent inflows of resources (acquisition of net position) that apply to future periods and that, therefore, are not recognized as revenue until that time.
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets and liabilities, including capital assets, as well as infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying statement of net position. The statement of activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. Fiduciary activities of the City are not included in these statements.
Certain types of transactions are reported as program revenues for the City in three categories:
Charges for services
Operating grants and contributions
Capital grants and contributions
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, payables and receivables. All internal balances in the statement of net position have been eliminated. In the statement of activities, internal service fund transactions have been included in the governmental activities. The following interfund activities have been eliminated:
Due from and to other funds, which are short-term loans within the primary government Transfers in and out, which are flows of assets between funds without the requirement for repayment 44 162
City of Hermosa Beach
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Governmental Fund Financial Statements
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the balance sheet. The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances presents increases (revenue and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in fund balances.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
Revenues are recorded when received in cash, except those revenues subject to accrual (generally 60 days after year-end) which are recognized when due. The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City, are property taxes, intergovernmental revenues and other taxes. Sales tax is received on a monthly basis. Business license fees are recorded as received, except at year-end when they are accrued pursuant to the modified accrual basis of accounting. The City recognizes business license revenue collected within 60 days as revenue at June 30. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.
Reconciliations of the fund financial statements to the government-wide financial statements are provided to explain the differences.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund – The General Fund is the City’s principal operating fund. It accounts for all revenues and expenditures used to finance the traditional services associated with a municipal government except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
FEMA Special Revenue Fund – This fund is used to account for emergency response related expenditures reimbursed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Capital Improvement Capital Projects Fund – This fund is set aside for capital improvement projects.
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on the statement of net position. The statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned, while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.

City of Hermosa Beach
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Proprietary Fund Financial Statements (Continued)
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the proprietary funds are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for the proprietary funds include the costs of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
Internal service funds are the only funds presented in the proprietary fund financial statements. However, internal service balances and activities have been combined with the governmental activities in the governmentwide financial statements. The internal service funds are used to account for equipment replacement and insurance provided to other City departments on a cost-reimbursement basis.
Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements
The City’s fiduciary funds represent agency funds, which are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of operations. The fiduciary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. The City maintains seven fiduciary funds which represent assets resulting from assessments to the property owners in four utility undergrounding districts, two reserve funds for utility undergrounding districts and a downtown improvement district (Lower Pier Avenue). The assets are used to repay bonds secured by the private property in the district.
C. Cash and Investments
The City’s cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. All cash and investments of proprietary funds are held in the City’s investment pool. These cash pools have the general characteristics of a demand deposit account, therefore, all cash and investments in the proprietary funds are considered cash and cash equivalents for statement of cash flows purposes.
D. Fair Value Measurement
Investments, unless otherwise specified, recorded at fair value in the financial statements, are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.
The three levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable for the assets or liabilities through corroboration with market data at the measurement date. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities at the measurement date. 46 164

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) E. Property Taxes Receivable
Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on property as of January 1 each year. The property tax year runs from July 1 to June 30. Property is taxed as of January 1 for payment in the following fiscal year. Taxes are payable in two installments: December 10 and April 10 of each year. The County of Los Angeles, California (the “County”) bills and collects the property taxes and remits them to the City according to a payment schedule established by the County. City property tax revenues are recognized, net of estimated refunds and uncollectible amounts, in the period for which the taxes are levied. The City recognizes available taxes, or those collected within 60 days, as revenue at June 30.
The County is permitted by State law to levy taxes at 1% of full market value (at time of purchase) and can increase the assessed valuation no more than 2% per year. The City receives a share of this basic levy, or .203 cents of each $1.00, proportionate to what it received during the years 1976 to 1978.
F. Interfund Transactions
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as “due from/to other funds” (i.e., current portion of interfund loans).
G. Capital Assets
In the government-wide financial statements, capital assets, which include land, buildings, improvements, equipment, furniture, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, sidewalks, and similar items), are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets, donated works of art or similar items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are reported at acquisition value on the date donated rather than fair value. City policy has set the capitalization threshold for reporting capital assets at $5,000 and infrastructure at $100,000.
The City defines infrastructure as the basic physical assets that allow the City to function. The assets include streets, sewers and storm drains, parking meters and monuments. Each major infrastructure system can be divided into subsystems. For example, the street system can be subdivided into pavement, curb and gutters, sidewalks, medians, streetlights and landscaping. These subsystems were not delineated in the basic financial statements. The Finance Department, with the assistance of the appropriate operating department, maintains information regarding the subsystems.
Interest incurred during capital assets construction, if any, is capitalized for the proprietary funds as part of the asset cost.
For all infrastructure systems, the City elected to use the “Basic Approach” and depreciate over its estimated useful life.
Capital assets used in operations are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
The lives used for depreciation purposes are as follows:
Buildings 50 years
Improvements other than buildings 20 years
Machinery and equipment 3-20 years
Infrastructure 15-50 years

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) H. Unearned and Unavailable Revenue
In the government-wide and fund financial statements, unearned revenue is reported for transactions for which revenue has not yet been earned. Typical transactions recorded as unearned revenues in the government-wide financial statements are cell phone site license lease payments received in advance, prepaid charges for services, facility rentals paid in advance, and quarterly encroachment fees, and advance registration for recreation classes.
In the governmental fund financial statements, unavailable revenue is reported when transactions have not yet met the revenue recognition criteria based on the modified accrual basis of accounting. The City reports an unavailable revenue when an asset is reported in governmental fund financial statements but the revenue is not available.
I. Claims Payable
The City records a liability to reflect an actuarial estimate of ultimate uninsured losses for both general liability claims (including property damage claims) and workers’ compensation claims. The estimated liability for workers’ compensation claims and general liability claims includes “incurred but not reported” (“IBNR”) claims. There is no fixed payment schedule to pay these liabilities.
J. Compensated Absences Payable
City employees have vested interest in varying levels of vacation, sick leave and compensatory time based on their length of employment. It is the policy of the City to pay all accumulated vacation pay and all or a portion of sick pay when an employee retires or terminates. The long-term amount is included as a liability in the governmental activities of the government-wide financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. All of the liability for compensated absences applicable to proprietary funds is reported in those funds. The City’s goal is to accumulate 25% of the funding for the accrued liability for compensated absences in the assigned fund balance for compensated absences. Compensated absences are liquidated principally by the General Fund.
K. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the aggregate net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the plans and additions to/deductions from the plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plans (Note 9). For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
The following timeframes are used for pension reporting:
CalPERS
Valuation Date June 30, 2018
Measurement Date June 30, 2019
Measurement Period July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019
Gains and losses related to changes in total pension liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in pension expense systematically over time. The first amortized amounts are recognized in pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and are to be recognized in future pension expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized straight-line over 5 years.
All other amounts are amortized straight-line over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactive, and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period. 48 166

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) L. Other Postemployment Benefits (“OPEB”)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the plans and additions to/deductions from OPEB Plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plan (Note 10). For this purpose, the OPEB Plan recognizes benefit payments when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
The following timeframes are used for OPEB reporting:
OPEB
Valuation Date June 30, 2019
Measurement Date June 30, 2020
Measurement Period July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020
Gains and losses related to changes in total OPEB liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in OPEB expense systematically over time. The first amortized amounts are recognized in OPEB expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and are to be recognized in future OPEB expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. All other amounts are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactive, and retired) at the beginning of the measurement period.
M. Net Position
In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements, net position is classified as follows:
Investment in Capital Assets - This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation.
Restricted - This component of net position consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities and deferred inflows of resources related to those assets.
Unrestricted - This component of net position is the amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position.
N. Fund Balances
In the governmental fund financial statements, fund balances are classified as follows:
Nonspendable – Nonspendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in a spendable form, such as inventory or prepaid items, or because resources legally or contractually must remain intact.
Restricted – Restricted fund balances are the portion of fund balance that have externally enforceable limitations on their usage through legislation or limitations imposed by creditors, grantor, laws and regulations of other governments or enabling legislation.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) N. Fund Balances (Continued)
Committed – Committed fund balances are self-imposed limitations by the highest level of decision-making authority, namely the City Council, prior to the end of the reporting period. City Council adoption of a resolution is required to commit resources or to rescind the commitment.
Assigned – Assigned fund balances are limitations imposed by management based on the intended use of the funds. Modifications or rescissions of the constraints can be removed by the same type of action that limited the use of the funds. Assignment of resources can be done by the highest level of decision making or by a committee or official designated for that purpose. The City Council has authorized the Finance Director for that purpose.
Unassigned – Unassigned fund balances represent the residual net resources in excess of the other classifications. The general fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. In other governmental funds, it is not appropriate to report a positive unassigned fund balance amount. However, in governmental fund other than general fund, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that fund.
O. Spending Policy
Government – Wide Financial Statements and Proprietary Fund Financial Statements When expenses are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted components of net position are available, the City’s policy is to apply restricted component of net position first, then the unrestricted component of net position as needed.
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned fund balances are all available, the City’s policy is to use these balances in the following order unless an ordinance specifies the fund balance to be used: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned.
Long-term financial planning
The City Council’s adopted financial policies relating to long-term financial planning for specific purposes are as follows:
Insurance Fund - Goal of $3,000,000 in net position for claims reserves and catastrophic losses.
Equipment Replacement Fund - Goal of net position equal to the accumulated amount calculated for all equipment, based on replacement cost and useful life of equipment.
Contingency - Goal equal to 16% of the General Fund appropriations for economic uncertainties, unforeseen emergencies.
Compensated Absences - Goal equal to 25% funding for accrued liabilities for employee vacation, sick and compensatory time.

Long-term financial planning (Continued)
The City also has a financial policy of transferring funds unspent in the General Fund at year-end to the Insurance Fund, Equipment Replacement Fund, and Capital Improvement Capital Projects Fund and to add to Contingency funds. The City Council makes changes as necessary to the year-end transfer, depending on the equity in the funds or based on other needs.
P. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the basic financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Q. Accounting Changes
The City adopted Statement on Governmental Accounting Standards (GASB Statement) No. 84, Fiduciary Activities and GASB Statement No. 90 Majority Equity Interest. Neither standard significantly impacted the City.
The City implemented Statement on Governmental Accounting Standards (GASB Statement) No. 98, The Comprehensive Financial Report, which establishes the term annual comprehensive financial report and its acronym ACFR. The new term and acronym replace instances of comprehensive annual financial report and its acronym in generally accepted accounting principles for state and local governments. 51 169

A. Deposits
The carrying amounts of the City’s demand deposits were $17,267,946 at June 30, 2021. Bank balances at that date were $18,321,014, the total amount of which was collateralized or insured with accounts held by the pledging financial institutions in the City’s name as discussed below.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor.
Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City’s name.
The fair value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City’s cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The City, however, has not waived the collateralization requirements.
The City follows the practice of pooling cash and investments of all funds, except for funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures, if applicable. Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated on an accounting period basis to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances, however, interest is not allocated to funds created to advance costs for utility undergrounding districts, reimbursable grant funds or internal service funds. 52 170

Structured Notes: debt securities (other than asset-backed securities) whose cash flow characteristics (coupon rate, redemption amount, or stated maturity) depend upon one or more indices and/or that have embedded forwards or options.
Asset-Backed Securities: generally, mortgage-backed securities that entitle their purchasers to receive a share of the cash flows from a pool of assets such as principal and interest repayments from a pool of mortgages (for example, collateralized mortgage obligations), or credit card receivables.
As of June 30, 2021, the City had $10,307,735 invested in LAIF, which had invested 0.01% of the pool investment funds in Structured Notes and Asset-Backed Securities. The fair value of the City’s investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying financial statements at amounts based upon the City’s pro-rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio).
C. Investment in Los Angeles County Investment Pool
The City is a voluntary participant in the Los Angeles County Investment Pool pursuant to Government Code Section 53684. The cash flow needs of participants are monitored daily to ensure that sufficient liquidity is maintained to meet the needs of those participants. At the time deposits are made, the Los Angeles County Investment Pool’s Treasurer may require the depositing entity to provide annual cash flow projections or an anticipated withdrawal schedule for deposits in excess of $1 million. Projections are to be performed no less than semi-annually. In accordance with Government Code Section 27136, all requests for withdrawal of funds for the purpose of investing or depositing the funds elsewhere shall be evaluated to ensure the proposed withdrawal will not adversely affect the principal deposits of the other participants. As of June 30, 2021, the City had $16,799,509 invested in the Los Angeles County Investment Pool. 53 171

Note 8 – Risk Management (Continued)
The City purchases workers’ compensation coverage through a self-insured program available through ICRMA. The City maintains a $500,000 self-insured retention limit and participates in a self-insured risk sharing pool through the ICRMA of coverage up to statutory limits.
ICRMA is a joint exercise of powers authority organized and operating pursuant to the California Government Code.
ICRMA was formed in 1980 pursuant to joint exercise of power agreements for insurance and risk management purposes, which, as amended, enable ICRMA to provide programs of risk sharing, insurance and risk management services in connection with liability, property, and workers’ compensation claims.
ICRMA’s annual budget is based on estimated actuarially determined member losses within the risk sharing layer, administrative expenses and excess insurance.
The City’s premiums to ICRMA in the amount of $974,140 for the fiscal year 2020-2021 are in accordance with formulas established by ICRMA. The City is liable for possible additional assessments and withdrawal costs under terms of the membership agreement; however, there has never been an additional assessment since the pool was formed.
The City has entered into contracts with third party administrators who supervise and administer the City’s general liability and workers’ compensation insurance program. Claim loss estimates are determined by the third party administrator based on the nature of an individual claim. The loss estimates include amounts for future compensation, medical, legal and administrative fees. The City also includes estimated claims incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) provided by an actuary. Reimbursement requests are submitted to the City on a monthly basis as claims are paid.
The workers’ compensation and general liability claims payable of $6,368,906 reported at June 30, 2021 includes the liability for claims in which it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

Benefit Provided (Continued)
Participant is eligible for non-industrial disability retirement if becomes disabled and has at least 5 years of credited service. There is no special age requirement. The standard non-industrial disability retirement benefit is a monthly allowance equal to 1.8 percent of final compensation, multiplied by service. Industrial disability benefits are not offered to miscellaneous employees.
An employee's beneficiary may receive the basic death benefit if the employee dies while actively employed. The employee must be actively employed with the City to be eligible for this benefit. An employee's survivor who is eligible for any other pre-retirement death benefit may choose to receive that death benefit instead of this basic death benefit. The basic death benefit is a lump sum in the amount of the employee's accumulated contributions, where interest is currently credited at 7.5 percent per year, plus a lump sum in the amount of one month's salary for each completed year of current service, up to a maximum of six months' salary. For purposes of this benefit, one month's salary is defined as the member's average monthly full-time rate of compensation during the 12 months preceding death.
Upon the death of a retiree, a one-time lump sum payment of $500 will be made to the retiree's designated survivor(s), or to the retiree's estate.
Benefit terms provide for annual cost-of-living adjustments to each employee’s retirement allowance. Beginning the second calendar year after the year of retirement, retirement and survivor allowances will be annually adjusted on a compound basis by 2 percent.
Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (“PERL”) requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total plan contributions are determined through CalPERS’ annual actuarial valuation process. The Public agency cost-sharing plans covered by either the Safety risk pools, the Plan’s actuarially determined rate is based on the estimated amount necessary to pay the Plan’s allocated share of the risk pool’s costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, and any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense for the plan totaled $7,955,576 For the measurement period ended June 30, 2020 (the measurement date), the average contribution rate were as follows:

Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pension
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions Used to Determine Total Pension Liability The June 30, 2019 valuation was rolled forward to determine June 30, 2020 total pension liability based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Normal
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 7.15%
Inflation 2.75%
Salary Increases Varies by Entry Age and Service
Investment rate of return 7.65% net of pension plan investment expenses, includes inflation Mortality Rate Table Derived using CalPERS’ Membership Data for all Funds.
Post Retirement Benefit Increase Contract COLA up to 2.75% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies, 2.75% thereafter All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2018 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period from 1997 to 2011, including updates to salary increase, mortality and retirement rates. The Experience Study report can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under Forms and Publications.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the testing of the plans, the tests revealed the assets would not run out. Therefore, the current 7.15 percent discount rate is appropriate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not deemed necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 7.15 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under the GASB 68 section.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building- block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, staff took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund (Public Employees’ Retirement Fund) cash flows. Such cash flows were developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. Using historical returns of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent. 65 183

Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pension (Continued)
Proportionate Share of Net Pension Liability and Pension Expense (Continued) The following is the approach established by the plan actuary to allocate the net pension liability and pension expense to the individual employers within the risk pool. (1) In determining a cost-sharing plan’s proportionate share, total amounts of liabilities and assets are first calculated for the risk pool as a whole on the valuation date (June 30, 2018). The risk pool’s fiduciary net position (“FNP”) subtracted from its total pension liability (“TPL”) determines the net pension liability (“NPL”) at the valuation date.
(2) Using standard actuarial roll forward methods, the risk pool TPL is then computed at the measurement date (June 30, 2019). Risk pool FNP at the measurement date is then subtracted from this number to compute the NPL for the risk pool at the measurement date. For purposes of FNP in this step and any later reference thereto, the risk pool’s FNP at the measurement date denotes the aggregate risk pool’s FNP at June 30, 2019 less the sum of all additional side fund (or unfunded liability) contributions made by all employers during the measurement period (2017-2018).
(3) The individual plan’s TPL, FNP and NPL are also calculated at the valuation date. TPL is allocated based on the rate plan’s share of the actuarial accrued liability. FNP is allocated based on the rate plan’s share of the fair value assets.
(4) Two ratios are created by dividing the plan’s individual TPL and FNP as of the valuation date from (3) by the amounts in step (1), the risk pool’s total TPL and FNP, respectively. (5) The plan’s TPL as of the Measurement Date is equal to the risk pool TPL generated in (2) multiplied by the TPL ratio generated in (4). The plan’s FNP as of the Measurement Date is equal to the FNP generated in (2) multiplied by the FNP ratio generated in (4) plus any additional side fund (or unfunded liability) contributions made by the employer on behalf of the plan during the measurement period. (6) The plan’s NPL at the Measurement Date is the difference between the TPL and FNP calculated in (5).
Deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and pension expense is allocate based on the City’s share of contributions during measurement period.
The City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability was as follows:
Miscellaneous Safety
June 30, 2020 0.37079% 0.54687%

Miscellaneous $ 2,633,614
Safety 5,321,962
$ 7,955,576
The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized over 5-years straight line. All other amounts are amortized straight-line over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactive and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period.
The expected average remaining service lifetime (“EARSL”) is calculated by dividing the total future service years by the total number of plan participants (active, inactive, and retired) in the risk pool. The EARSL for risk pool for the 2018-2019 measurement period is 3.7 years, which was obtained by dividing the total service years of 475,689 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of the active employees) by 127,009 (the total number of participants: active, inactive, and retired).

Note 10 – Other Postemployment Benefit Plan
General Information about the Plan
On June 12, 2007, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing participation in a post retirement health care plan trust to be administered by Public Agency Retirement Services (“PARS”) and Union Bank of California. In July 2007, the City signed an agreement with Public Agency Retirement Services to create and administer an irrevocable trust fund for the payment of other postemployment benefits for city employees. Funds in the amount of $1,401,000 that were previously set aside were forwarded to Union Bank pursuant to the agreement to establish the trust during the year ended June 30, 2008. Contributions are made on a monthly basis.
Plan Description
The City participates in a post retirement health care plan trust (“Plan”) administered by PARS and Union Bank of California. The Plan provides medical insurance benefits to eligible retirees, which is a single-employer defined benefit plan. PARS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the Plan. That report may be obtained by contacting the City at 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254.
The Plan is comprised of employees and retirees from several bargaining units, including General and Supervisory; Professional and Administrative Employees Association; Hermosa Beach Management Association; Police Management Association; Police Officers Association and Firefighters Association.
The range of monthly benefits to be paid by the City ranges from $40 to $556 per month based on years of service from 10 years to 20 years provided to the City.
The monthly benefits paid by the City are subject to change with increases provided based on age at retirement and years of service.
Post-Retirement Health Care Coverage for Fire Employees The City contracted with Los Angeles County for Fire Services (“Fire District”) on 12/30/2017. Fire District employees are provided post-retirement health coverage. The current vesting period is 10 years of Fire District service. Service with the City does not count towards coverage, only time actually worked in Fire District service counts towards the vesting period. Hermosa Beach Fire Association (HBFA) members who transfer to the Fire District and who take a service retirement before reaching 10 years of Fire District service are ineligible for the Fire District's retiree health benefit.
For those HBFA members who have 19 plus years of service with the City at the time of transfer to Fire District employment and who take a service retirement from the Fire District prior to vesting in the Fire District's retiree health plan, the City agrees to create a new Tier to the City's retiree health program as follow: the retired HBFA member will be eligible to receive from the City the $350 per month benefit set forth in Article 42(D) of the MOU.
This benefit is limited to the first four HBFA members who qualify for the benefit. 71 189

Net OPEB Liability
The City’s net OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2020, and the total OPEB liability used to calculate the net OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2020.
Actuarial Assumptions
The total OPEB liability, measured as of June 30, 2020, was determined using the following actuarial assumptions:
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Normal
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 6.00% Pre-funded in PARS Moderate Strategy Inflation 2.75% per annum
Salary Increases 3.00% Aggregate
Merit: 1997-2015 CalPERS Experience Study
Investment Rate of Return 6.00%
Healthcare Trend Rate Non-Medicare: 7.5% in 2019, to 4.0% in 2076 and thereafter Medicare: 6.5% in 2019 to 4.0% in 2076 and thereafter
Mortality, Retirement, Disability, Termination CalPERS 1997-2015 Experience Study Service Requirement 100% at 20 Years of Service
Participation Rate Currently covered: 100%
The actuarial assumptions used in the July 1, 2020 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020. 72 190

Note 10 – Other Postemployment Benefit Plan (Continued) Net OPEB Liability (Continued)
Actuarial Assumptions (Continued)
The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of OPEB plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The target allocation and best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table:
Target Allocation Expected Real
Asset Class PARS-Moderate Rate of Return
Global Equity 48.00% 4.820%
Fixed Income 45.00% 1.470%
REIs 2.00% 3.760%
Cash 5.00% 0.060%
100.00%
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 6.00 percent. The actuarial assumptions used to determine the discount rate was based on the current funding practice and assumed the fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees.
Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability
Sensitivity of the Total OPEB Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the total OPEB liability of the City, as well as what the total OPEB liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is one percentage point lower or one percentage point higher than the current rate, for the measurement period ended June 30, 2020:

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies
A. Commitments
The City had several outstanding or planned construction and other projects as of June 30, 2021. These projects are evidenced by contractual commitments with contractors and include:
Commitment
Project Spent to Date Remaining
Permit Software Upgrade and Integration Project $ 564,993 $ 114,045 Fire Department Facility and Equipment Conversion 1,019,788 1,013,883 Total $ 1,584,781 $ 1,127,928
Of the commitments listed above, $949,290 represents commitments in the Capital Projects Fund, $114,045 represents commitments in Internal Service Funds, and $64,593 represents commitments in Special Revenue Funds.
In January 2000, the North Pier Parking Structure was completed. The parking structure contains 400 parking spaces and was funded in part by a downtown developer in exchange for the use of 100 spaces in the structure.
The remainder of the funding was provided by the City’s former Downtown Enhancement Enterprise Fund and Prop A Open Space funding contributed by the Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors (“County”). In consideration of the County contribution, 50% of the annual net income derived from the parking structure must be shared with the County each year by September 1. The payment made to the County for fiscal year 2020-2021 is $166,229. The County contract ends in 2027.
B. Contingencies
The City is a defendant in a number of lawsuits, which have arisen in the normal course of business. While substantial damages are alleged in some of these actions, their outcome cannot be predicted with certainty.
C. Grants
Amounts received or receivable from granting agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies.
While no matters of noncompliance were disclosed by the audit of the financial statements or single audit of the Federal grant programs, grantor agencies may subject grant programs to additional compliance tests, which may result in disallowed costs. In the opinion of management, future disallowances of current or prior grant expenditures, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the City.
D. Ongoing Operations
The City’s operations may be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of COVID-19, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, possible effects may include, but are not limited to, a reduction in certain tax revenues and a decline in the value of investments, which could have an impact on the City’s financial position and operating results. There is significant uncertainty as to the severity and longevity of the outbreak and City management is in the process of evaluating the impact on the City and its financial statements. 77 195

Budgetary Control and Accounting Policy
Budgets are annually adopted for all governmental and proprietary fund types on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. The City is required by its municipal code to adopt an annual budget on or before June 30 for the ensuing fiscal year. From the effective date of the budget, the amounts become the “annual appropriated budget.”
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, department and division. The City Council may amend the budget by motion during the fiscal year. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between departments within the same fund; however, any transfers between funds or revisions that alter total appropriations of any fund require City Council approval. The legal level of control is therefore at the fund level.
Supplemental appropriations, which increase appropriations, were made during the fiscal year, therefore, “final” budgeted revenue and appropriation amounts shown in the financial statements represent the original budget, modified for adjustments during the year. Appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year.
Encumbrances - Under encumbrance accounting, purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for expenditures are recorded to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation. Encumbrance accounting is employed as an extension of formal budgetary accounting. Unexpended appropriations lapse at year-end. 82 200

Assessed Value and Estimated Actual Value of Taxable Property Last Ten Fiscal Years
(In Thousands)
In 1978, the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which limited taxes to a total maximum rate of 1% based upon the assessed value of the property being taxed. Each year, the assessed value of property may be increased by an "inflation factor" (limited to a maximum of 2%). With few exceptions, property is only reassessed as a result of new construction activity or at the time it is sold to a new owner. At that point, the property is reassessed based upon the added value of the construction or at the purchase price (market value) or economic value of the property sold. The assessed valuation data shown above represents the only data currently available with respect to the actual market value of taxable property and is subject to the limitations described above. 154 272

Note: In 1978 California voters passed Proposition 13 which set the property tax rate at a 1.00% fixed amount. The 1.00% is shared by all taxing agencies wherein the subject property resides. In addition to the 1.00% fixed amount, property owners are charged taxes as a percentage of assessed property values for the payment of any voter approved bonds. 155 273

Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Hermosa Beach
Hermosa Beach, California
REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND
ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Hermosa Beach, California as of and for the year ended June 30, 2021, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City of Hermosa Beach’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated March 31, 2022.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City of Hermosa Beach's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Hermosa Beach’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Hermosa Beach’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses.
However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. 291

Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether City of Hermosa Beach's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

REPORT 22-0343
Ambulance (Attachment 1: April 2022 LACoFD and McCormick Ambulance Monthly Report).
Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACoFD)
LACoFD and McCormick Ambulance work together to provide emergency medical services (EMS) to the Hermosa Beach community. LACoFD has two apparatus stationed at Station 100 including: one assessment engine (Engine 100) staffed with a Fire Captain, a Fire Engineer and a Firefighter Paramedic; and a paramedic squad (Squad 100) staffed with two Firefighter Paramedics. The paramedic squad (Squad 100) only responds to calls for service exclusively within the City of Hermosa Beach. It does not provide mutual aid, thereby remaining available for calls within Hermosa Beach.
Each of the LACoFD apparatus has the capability of providing basic emergency medical care known as Basic Life Support (BLS) to medical patients. In addition, the paramedic squad has advanced equipment including medications and responds from within the City to address Advanced Life Support (ALS) calls, such as a stroke or heart attack.
McCormick Ambulance is one of the emergency medical transport companies within Los Angeles County. LACoFD does not conduct patient transport; therefore, unincorporated areas are included in the fire department transport contracts with various providers. Contract cities are responsible for negotiating and contracting with a medical transport provider for their community. Within the South Bay, many of the cities have contracted with McCormick Ambulance to conduct emergency medical transportation including the City of Hermosa Beach.
When LACoFD is dispatched, McCormick Ambulance may also be dispatched as the City’s emergency medical transportation provider. LACoFD provides life-saving medical care on scene and continues ALS level care as the patient is transported to a local hospital. In the case of a BLS level call, monitoring and care are safely provided by one of the two Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) assigned to the responding ambulance.
LACoFD follows industry standards developed by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), which outlines call transfer times and total response times. The NFPA standard for call transfer time is that each call will be answered within 60 seconds 90 percent of the time. Additionally, responding units are to be enroute within 60 seconds to EMS related calls and 80 seconds for structure fire calls.
NFPA further stipulates that for EMS calls, responding units must arrive on scene within 8 minutes and 59 seconds 90 percent of the time.
The April 2022 call transfer report provided by LACoFD indicates that two calls had a transfer time longer than the NFPA standard. The calls were received during a period of increased call volume in the dispatch center.

McCormick Ambulance
McCormick Ambulances are staffed by two EMT’s who can provide and transport BLS patients independently and, with the support of LACoFD paramedics riding in the ambulance, can also transport ALS patients.
In April 2022, McCormick Ambulance responded to 52 calls for services within the City of Hermosa Beach. The April 2022 report indicated that 5 calls resulted in delayed Code 3 responses, which is a decrease in delayed calls from the March 2022 transport report. There were 2 delayed Code 2 responses in April 2022. A Code 3 response is one where the responding emergency units are driving with lights and sirens to a presumed life-threatening emergency, which is typically classified as an ALS call. According to the McCormick Ambulance contract, “response time must not exceed eight (8) minutes, fifty-nine (59) seconds” for a Code 3 incident. A Code 2 response is one where the responding emergency units are driving with lights and sirens to an emergency classified as a basic City of Hermosa Beach Page 3 of 5 Printed on 9/12/2022

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0343
responding emergency units are driving with lights and sirens to an emergency classified as a basic life support or BLS call.
Staff reviewed the April 2022 McCormick Ambulance monthly report. The following outlines the reasons for the delayed responses:
· Multiple Calls: (5) The dispatch center received multiple calls at the same time; and · Distance: (2) Based on the location the ambulance begins the response to the City, it could impact the response time. The City contract does not have a unit permanently stationed within Hermosa Beach; therefore, the responding ambulance often begins the response outside of the City.
McCormick Ambulance demonstrates a continuous effort to detect and correct service level performance deficiencies by identifying the reason for delayed response times, issuance of personnel performance notices when mandatory response requirements are not met, and the release of personnel upon continued performance issues. McCormick Ambulance also provides training and continuing education to staff to improve skills and service delivery.
Although the emergency medical transport units were delayed in arriving on scene within the allowable timeframe for 7 calls in April 2022, patients were provided timely life-saving emergency medical care on scene by Los Angeles County Fire Department paramedics. When LACoFD arrives on scene, it takes paramedics 5 to 10 minutes to conduct the required treatment protocols prior to commencing transport with McCormick Ambulance. During the patient treatment phase, the requested ambulance is typically on scene waiting for the paramedics to complete their treatment protocols even if the ambulance response is delayed. Los Angeles County Fire Department and McCormick Ambulance are committed to providing excellent emergency medical care, customer service, and response to the residents and visitors of Hermosa Beach.

REPORT 22-0369
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of June 14, 2022
FINDINGS TO HOLD REMOTE TELECONFERENCE/MEETINGS,
PURSUANT TO ASSEMBLY BILL 361
(City Clerk Myra Maravilla)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council authorize remote teleconference/virtual meetings of all City of Hermosa Beach legislative bodies in accordance with Assembly Bill 361 (“AB 361”), by finding that:
(1) a statewide state of emergency is currently in place; (2) state and local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing in connection with COVID-19; and meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.
Background:
All meetings of the City’s legislative bodies are subject to the Ralph M. Brown Act (Gov. Code §§ 54950 et seq.) and must be open and public so that any member of the public may attend and participate in the meetings. Commencing in March of 2020, Governor Newsom issued a series of executive orders aimed at preventing the spread of a respiratory disease that came to be known as the novel coronavirus, “COVID-19.” Among these were Executive Orders (“EO”) N-25-20, N-29-20, and N-35-20 (collectively, the “Brown Act Orders”) that waived the teleconferencing requirements of the Brown Act to allow legislative bodies to meet virtually.
On June 11, 2021, the Governor issued EO N-08-21 to begin winding down some of the prior measures that were adopted to respond to COVID-19. Notably, EO N-08-21 rescinded the Brown Act Orders, effective September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed AB 361, which became effective October 1, 2021, and amended the Brown Act to allow legislative bodies to meet virtually, without following the Brown Act’s standard teleconferencing rules, provided that the legislative body makes specific findings, which include the following:
1. A statewide state of emergency is currently in place;
2. State or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing in connection with COVID-19; and/or
3. Meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.
Continued compliance with AB 361 would require City Council to approve the action making the City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 2 Printed on 9/12/2022
powered by Legistar™307
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0369
Continued compliance with AB 361 would require City Council to approve the action making the required findings at least every 30 days.
Discussion:
All three findings under AB 361 can be made given the current circumstances. The Governor has proclaimed a state of emergency in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The state of emergency currently remains in effect.
Further, State officials, including the California Department of Public Health, have recommended measures to promote social distancing in connection with COVID-19, which are currently in place. Similarly, local officials, including the County Public Health Officer, have also recommended measures to promote social distancing in connection with COVID -19. In a recommendation dated September 28, 2021, the County Public Health Officer stated that “utilizing teleconferencing options for public meetings is an effective and recommended social distancing measure to facilitate participation in public affairs and encourage participants to protect themselves and others from the COVID-19 disease.” Finally, the City has determined that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees. Accordingly, all of the above-referenced AB 361 findings currently exist.
If City Council thus desires to allow virtual meetings in order to both ensure the health and safety of the public, the legislative bodies of the City, and City staff, as well as continuity of government in allowing regularly-scheduled meetings to continue to occur without interruption, staff recommends City Council authorize virtual/teleconference meetings by making the findings set forth above.
Alternative:
If City Council does not make the findings pursuant to AB 361, the City would have to conduct its public meetings for City Council and other public boards and commissions in person and not have the option of conducting its meetings via teleconferencing.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of June 14, 2022
APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH AND THE ROTARY CLUB OF HERMOSA BEACH FOR USE OF THE CORNER OF 11TH STREET AND VALLEY
DRIVE FOR THE FRIDAY FARMERS MARKET
(Community Resources Manager Lisa Nichols)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve an agreement with the Rotary Club of Hermosa Beach to provide its weekly Friday farmers market for a three-year term (Attachment 1); and
2. Authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest to the agreement subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
Since 1990, the City has approved a farmers market to be held weekly on Friday afternoons. The market was formerly managed by the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Bureau (Chamber of Commerce) until the Rotary Club of Hermosa Beach (Rotary Club) began managing it in 2015. The current agreement with the Rotary Club is set to expire on June 24, 2022. Staff and the Rotary Club worked to develop mutually agreeable terms for a new three-year agreement that would extend through June 27, 2025.
Background:
In 1990, the Chamber of Commerce began managing a farmers market every Friday afternoon. The Friday farmers market took place at various locations throughout the City until 2003, when it was moved to the corner of 11th Street and Valley Drive, which is its current location.
In 2014, the Chamber of Commerce elected to dedicate its resources to a new farmers market on Pier Plaza on Wednesday afternoons in an effort to bring more daytime visitors during the weekdays to the downtown area. This left the Friday farmers’ market without management. Due to community feedback and requests to uphold the Friday farmers market at its current location, the Rotary Club stepped in to manage the farmers market in 2015 and has done so, successfully, ever since.
At its regular meeting on March 8, 2016, City Council approved an agreement with the Rotary Club City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 4 Printed on 9/12/2022

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0352
At its regular meeting on March 8, 2016, City Council approved an agreement with the Rotary Club for its management of the Friday farmers market for a three-year term, expiring February 21, 2019 (Attachment 2).
On February 18, 2019, staff administratively approved an extension to the agreement to allow an additional four-month term, expiring June 28, 2019. This extension was to allow additional time to further negotiate the terms of the agreement and to align the terms of the agreement with the adopted vendor requirements in the agreement for the Chamber of Commerce’s Wednesday farmers market (Attachment 3).
At its regular meeting on June 11, 2019, City Council approved the first amendment to the agreement to modify the vendor requirements to allow both handmade and commercial goods to increase the variety of options and experiences for market visitors. The vendor requirements outlined in the first amendment aligned with the terms in the agreement for the Chamber of Commerce’s Wednesday farmers market. Additionally, the first amendment extended the agreement by four months through June 24, 2022 (Attachment 4).
The Chamber of Commerce agreement to hold the Wednesday farmers market expired June 24, 2020. The Chamber of Commerce did not request a new contract following the expiration due to concerns with COVID-19 and resource challenges. The Wednesday farmers market is no longer held.

Discussion:
The Friday farmers market takes place on the corner of 11th Street and Valley Drive and is heavily attended by school-aged children and the community in the surrounding area. The proposed new agreement maintains the terms of the prior agreement with minor formatting and language updates, City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 of 4 Printed on 9/12/2022

REPORT 22-0352
agreement maintains the terms of the prior agreement with minor formatting and language updates, which do not impact the production of the farmers market or its event format.
At the request of the Rotary Club, the new agreement includes language that permits amplified sound at the farmers market to provide entertainment to visitors. The amplified sound would consist of a musician and an instrument with a portable audio system. The entertainment has taken place at past farmers markets with no reportable concerns. After discussing with nearby residents and the Hermosa Beach Police Department, which has a building located directly next to the farmers market location, staff has no concerns including language to allow amplified sound during the hours of the farmers market.
Staff recommends City Council approve the proposed agreement (Attachment 1) with the Rotary Club to continue to provide the Friday farmers market.

REPORT 22-0356
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of June 14, 2022
APPROVE OCCUPANCY LICENSE FOR COMMUNITY GARDEN
(Environmental Programs Manager Doug Krauss)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve the occupancy license for the Community Garden at South Park (Attachment 1); and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest to the agreement subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
The Community Garden at South Park is a volunteer-run community garden open for use by Hermosa Beach residents. Approval of a new five-year occupancy license would ensure continuity of operation for the garden and its users.
Background:
The City of Hermosa Beach Sustainability Plan (2011) recommended the installation of a Community Garden in the City to educate and engage Hermosa Beach residents in sustainability initiatives, strengthen the community, and reduce emissions associated with transport of food and goods.
In October 2011, a demonstration garden was constructed in South Park located at 425 Valley Drive.
The objective of the demonstration garden was to showcase locally grown organic edibles and native plants, demonstrate the use of composting and worm bins, and water conservation practices. The demonstration garden was removed in 2015 as part of the extensive South Park renovation and a new permanent location for the garden was incorporated into the northeast corner of South Park.
The garden has operated at its current location since 2016 and is managed by volunteer garden managers. The garden manager and volunteers perform most maintenance and upkeep at the garden, with occasional assistance from City staff. All garden plots are consistently occupied by residents and the garden managers administer the ongoing requests of prospective users.
Currently, the fee paid to the Community Garden for using a plot is $50 annually with a required $100 deposit. Interested residents can contact the garden managers via email, as detailed on the City website, to secure a plot in the garden. Users may utilize a specific plot for a maximum of two years.
The two-year rotation ensures that any residents waiting for a plot may also be given the opportunity City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 3 Printed on 9/12/2022

REPORT 22-0356
The two-year rotation ensures that any residents waiting for a plot may also be given the opportunity to participate in the community garden.
Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
February 9, 2016 Approved Occupancy License for the Community Garden Discussion:
The Occupancy License between the City and the Community Garden is for the purpose of operating and maintaining the community garden in South Park. Due to the expiration of the prior license, staff recommends approving a new five-year license to ensure continuity of this popular local amenity.
The proposed new Occupancy License (Attachment 1) retains the language of the 2016 license with only minor language updates. The garden would continue to operate in its current manner including the requirement to donate 20 percent of food grown to a local food pantry. The garden users are diligent in honoring the food donation requirement.
The Hermosa Beach Community Garden has been an active member of the Los Angeles Community Garden Council (“LA Garden Council”) since 2012. The LA Garden Council acts as the Garden’s fiscal agency sponsor and manages the Garden’s financial transactions including purchasing the required liability insurance.
City staff would continue to provide outreach to residents on the presence and availability of the garden. The public outreach includes providing information on the City website, posting to social media, and supporting the variety of outreach and activities that garden managers directly administer.
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendations have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:
Parks and Open Space Element
Goal 10. Abundant landscaping, trees, and green space provided throughout the community Policy:
· 10.2 Non-invasive landscapes. Encourage the planting of native, non-invasive, and drought tolerant landscaping and trees, and encourage the planting of edible landscapes and fruit trees
Fiscal Impact:
No monetary consideration is required in exchange for the rights to this occupancy license agreement. City staff assists with various related maintenance concerns on an as-needed basis.

To be eligible for Fiscal Year 2022-2023 funding, the City must submit a project list to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) by July 1, 2022, along with a resolution documenting the approval of the City's project list.
Background:
On April 28, 2017, the Governor of California signed Senate Bill (SB 1) (Beall, Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017), known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, to address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on both the state highway and local streets and road system. SB 1 increases per gallon fuel excise taxes, increases diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration fees, and provides for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years.
A percentage of this funding is apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system. The projected revenue for the City of Hermosa Beach in Fiscal Year 2022-23 is $444,633.
SB 1 revenue is not intended to replace existing local discretionary funding, such as General Fund or Capital Improvement Funds, for road repair and maintenance projects. Therefore, it requires cities City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 5 Printed on 9/12/2022

Capital Improvement Funds, for road repair and maintenance projects. Therefore, it requires cities and counties to maintain their existing commitment of local funds for street, road, and highway purposes in order to remain eligible for Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) funding apportionment as defined by a Maintenance of Effort (MOE) estimate. The MOE estimate establishes the minimum amount of funding that the City of Hermosa Beach must continue to allocate on an annual basis toward street and highway projects from local discretionary funds.
The State Controller’s Office (SCO) completed its review of the City’s certified General Fund discretionary expenditures for street purposes for the period of July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2012.
Based on the review, the SCO set the City’s MOE at $833,246.
The City is required to submit a list of projects (Attachment 2) to the California Transportation Commission each fiscal year. The FY 2022-23 list is due to the Commission by July 1, 2022. The City is also required to develop and submit a project expenditure report to the Commission by October 1, 2022 for the FY 2021-22 expenditures and comply with all requirements including reporting requirements for RMRA funding.
RMRA funding may be used for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system. Streets and Highways Code (SHC) Section 2030 provides a number of example projects and uses for RMRA funding that include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation;
· Safety Projects;
· Railroad Grade Separations;
· Traffic Control Devices; and
· Complete Streets Components, including active transportation purposes, pedestrian and bicycle safety projects, transit facilities, and drainage and stormwater capture projects in conjunction with any other allowable project.
Additionally, RMRA projects may incorporate, where feasible, the following project elements:
· Technologies and material recycling techniques that lower greenhouse gas emissions and reduce the cost of maintaining local streets and roads through material choice and construction method;
· Systems and components in transportation infrastructure that recognize and accommodate technologies including but not limited to Zero Emissions Vehicle (ZEV) fueling or charging and infrastructure-vehicles communications for transitional or fully autonomous vehicles; · Project features that increase resilience to the impacts of climate change, fires, floods, and City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 of 5 Printed on 9/12/2022

sea level rise; and
· Complete Streets elements that improve the quality of bicycle and pedestrian facilities and that improve safety for all users of transportation facilities.
A city or county may spend its apportionment of RMRA funds on transportation priorities other than those outlined in SHC Section 2030 if the city or county’s average Pavement Condition Index (PCI) meets or exceeds 80. Hermosa Beach currently has an average Pavement Condition Index below
80. Therefore, the City must spend the available funding on the types of projects identified above.
RMRA funds may also be used to satisfy a match requirement in order to obtain state or federal funds for eligible projects.
