Staff Report No. 25-CDD-010
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
APPROVAL OF SECOND AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH CSG
CONSULTANTS, INC FOR ON-CALL STAFF AUGMENTATION SERVICES CEQA: Determine that the approval is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) or in the alternative, that the approval is exempt under CEQA. (Planning Manager Alexis Oropeza)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve the proposed second amendment to an agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. for staff augmentation services to increase the not-to-exceed amount by $122,176, resulting in a total not-to-exceed amount of $237,176 for the remainder of the two-year term ending June 30, 2026 (Attachment 3); and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest the attached second amendment subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
At its August 13, 2024 meeting, City Council approved an amendment to an agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. to increase the not-to-exceed limit to $115,000 to extend staff augmentation services for the Community Development Department due to on-going staff vacancies.
Staff requests approval of a second amendment to increase the not-to-exceed limit by $122,176 resulting in a total not-to-exceed amount of $237,176 under the original twoyear term ending June 30, 2026 (Attachment 3). The proposed second amendment would allow the City to continue using temporary staff augmentation services while recruitment efforts are underway.
Background:
To effectively serve residents, businesses, and the development community, the City must maintain adequate staffing levels. Any staff vacancy in a small community development department significantly impacts the delivery of essential services. Staff augmentation agreements are crucial to quickly meet temporary staffing needs, thereby ensuring continuous operations.
On June 27, 2024, the City contracted CSG Consultants, Inc. with a not-to-exceed limit of $30,000 and a term ending June 30, 2026 for immediate on-call staff augmentation
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 4
services (Attachment 1). Due to the limited availability of contracted staff throughout the profession, CSG Consultants, Inc. is one of three firms that provided City planning and community development staffing during these vacancies.
At its August 13, 2024 meeting, City Council approved the first amendment to increase the not-to-exceed compensation by $85,000 resulting in a total not-to-exceed amount of $115,000 (Attachment 2).
Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
August 13, 2024 Council approved the first amendment to increase the notto-exceed compensation by $85,000 for a total not-toexceed amount of $115,000.
Discussion:
The Community Development Department has one Associate Planner position and two full-time Assistant Planner positions in its small planning division. Two of the three positions, one in each classification, were vacated mid-year within a week of one another.
Upon any pending vacancy, staff immediately begins the process of determining the need and availability of staff augmentation services to fulfill essential duties during the position evaluation and recruitment process. After assessing the workload, City staff solicited professional planning personnel from several firms to fulfill the duties of Assistant Planner and Associate Planner.
Despite streamlined recruitment efforts through the Hermosa Is Hiring initiative, the challenging labor market for city planners has resulted in protracted recruitment times. In the fall of 2024, the City extended offers to two candidates resulting in the onboarding of a new hire and promotion of an existing staff person. Due to the promotion, a second Assistant Planner vacancy occurred and a third candidate was offered an Assistant Planner position.
In mid-November, after initially accepting, the candidate withdrew their acceptance to take a position with a different municipality. The candidate cited the higher pay range and preferable holiday schedule as reasons for their withdrawal. In addition to the Assistant Planner vacancy, the Community Development Director position has been vacant since mid-October 2024. In lieu of contracting an interim Community Development Director, the City Manager is currently serving in this capacity with support from the Planning Manager and Building Official.
In consideration of the additional demands on the Planning Manager during this time, the additional contract staff also assists with the day-to-day technical support of more junior planners. As a result of these vacancies and recruitment challenges, staff augmentation beyond the original anticipated timeframe is necessary to ensure continuity of planning
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 4
services, including day-to-day land use expertise for planning staff and the public and management of development projects requiring Planning Commission review.
CSG Consultants responded with capacity and qualified personnel to provide the requisite services. Two part-time contract staff members began serving the City in July 2024, along with one part-time contract staff member from another firm. The Associate Planner billing rate is $166 per hour at 32 hours per week ($5,312 per week), and the Assistant Planning billing rate is $145 at 16 hours per week ($2,320 per week). In October 2024, in anticipation of the onboarding of the new permanent staff, the contract staffing was reduced to a single Associate Planner at 32 hours per week.
In consideration of the legal mandates for timely processing of applications and the need for continuity of customer service to residents, property owners, and businesses, it was determined by the City Manager that contract staffing should be continued with CSG Consultants Inc. and that the second amendment be brought forward at the first opportunity in January 2025.
At this time, staff is requesting approximately 23 additional weeks to: 1) cover 7.5 weeks ($39,840) of service provided in excess of the First Amendment until this item could be considered by the City Council; and 2) extend service an additional 15.5 weeks ($82,336) to allow for the recruitment and onboarding process to be concluded.
Staff requests an additional $122,176 to continue qualified professional services for approximately 23 additional weeks, or until the positions are filled. The increase would result in a total contract term of two years with a not-to-exceed limit of $237,176. The proposed amendment would allow the Community Development Department to maintain customer service, timely responsiveness, and advance development projects. If services are no longer needed before the estimated time, the contract balance would not be used.
Environmental Review:
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, City Council action on this item is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.”
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:
Governance Element
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 4
Goal 1. A high degree of transparency and integrity in the decision-making process.

INDEMNIFICATION. CONSULTANT shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, and cost (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with CONSULTANT's performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT, regardless of CITY’S passive negligence, but excepting such loss or damage which is caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of the CITY. Should CITY in its sole discretion find CONSULTANT’S legal counsel unacceptable, then CONSULTANT shall reimburse the CITY its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation. The CONSULTANT shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the CITY (and its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers) covered by this indemnity obligation.

The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by CONSULTANT as required by Section 17, and any approval of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONSULTANT pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

City of Hermosa Beach
corrective measures. Failure of CONSULTANT to implement required corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.
A. The CONSULTANT, at the CONSULTANT’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance policies:
1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. The Consultant shall require all subcontractors similarly to provide such compensation insurance for their respective employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by the CITY at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by the CONTRACTOR for City.
2. General Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.
3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONSULTANT arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.
4. Professional Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from the CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by the CONSULTANT or by its employees, subcontractors, or subconsultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-peroccurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.
B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by City, and shall be endorsed as follows. CONSULTANT also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.
1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONSULTANT, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.”
2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance DocuSign Envelope ID: 3FC673D4-DD05-4040-87E9-019A2D4C6165
City of Hermosa Beach
maintained by the CITY, including any self-insured retention the CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.
3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.
4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.
5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.
6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days written notice has been received by the CITY.
C. CONSULTANT agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.
D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the CITY.
At the CITY’s option, the CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.
E. The CONSULTANT shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein. Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.
F. Failure on the part of the CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.
G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the Consultant (as the named insured) should Consultant fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. Consultant understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by Consultant as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should City pay the SIR or deductible on Consultant’s behalf upon the Consultant’s failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, City may include such amounts as damages in any action against Consultant for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by City due to the breach.
USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any sub-consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.
FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONSULTANT of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of the DocuSign Envelope ID: 3FC673D4-DD05-4040-87E9-019A2D4C6165
City of Hermosa Beach
CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONSULTANT for anything done, furnished, or relating to the CONSULTANT’S work or services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of the CITY’S check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by the CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of the CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-consultants and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by the CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by the Consultant, its employees, sub-consultants and agents.
CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during the City’s review of the Consultant’s report or plans. Should the Consultant fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by the CITY, and the cost thereof shall be charged to the CONSULTANT. In addition to all other available remedies, the City may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by the City or may withhold payment otherwise owed CONSULTANT under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.
NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONSULTANT by CITY for services preformed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal budget and within an available, unexhausted fund. In the event that CITY does not appropriate sufficient funds for payment of CONSULTANT’S services beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement shall cover payment for CONSULTANT’S services only to the conclusion of the last fiscal year in which CITY appropriates sufficient funds and shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of such fiscal year.

Our record of success with our clients is outstanding. The following is a small sampling of CSG’s Environmental Consulting Services projects and clients. For each of these projects, CSG was able to maintain agreed upon budgets and processing timeframes. Additional examples and references are available upon request.
Planning Services | City of El Segundo, California. CSG staff provides project management and entitlement processing services for the City of El Segundo. We have managed several high-profile projects, including a ±140-acre mixed use site on the former Raytheon manufacturing site and a mixed-use media campus. Another noteworthy project is the Smoky Hollow Specific Plan Amendment and EIR for the Grand Kansas II Project.
CSG staff provides entitlement project management and conducted a peer review of the environmental documentation for this office and commercial development. Our services also include Site Plan Review, Specific Plan Amendments, Coastal Development Permits, public outreach and grant administration.
In order to develop the Los Angeles Chargers headquarters and training facility, CSG’s Planning team assumed a project manager role in working with the applicants to process the requisite entitlements which included an EIR Addendum, Development Agreement Amendment, Minor Amendment of the Smoky Hollow Specific Plan, Vesting Tentative Tract Map, and Site Plan Review. CSG successfully presented the entitlement package, staff reports, resolutions, and project presentation to both the Planning Commission and the City Council, and both were approved.

As part of this process, our Planning Lead manages technical consultants, provides document review, conducts community outreach, and attends community and City Council meetings.

Staff is also managing the District at South Bay Specific Plan amendment for a modification to the permitted land uses and development standards for a portion of its 157-acres.

WORK PLAN
APPROACH TO WORK – CURRENT AND LONG-RANGE PLANNING
At CSG, we act as project managers in most of our efforts, but we are first and foremost planners. Our goal is to always perform as a “partner planner” for our clients, providing additional support and services to existing agency staff members. CSG’s project managers bring decades of project management experience, implementing best practices, while delivering work products on time and within budget.
We believe that a comprehensive approach to project management includes attention to land planning, economic feasibility, urban design, and the environment. Our project management philosophy is built upon the anticipation of, and preparation for, all issues that may arise throughout the planning process. By constantly considering and developing the appropriate process and plan to address political, environmental, social, and design challenges/opportunities, we can better serve the City while delivering the highest quality product. Our management team of senior professionals will work in close partnership with City staff to ensure continuous coordination of our proposed services. They will assist the City in determining planning and environmental review requirements with support from additional City planners and technical staff that allow our team to provide a wide range of services in a cost-effective manner.
CSG junior planning personnel assist client jurisdictions with plan checks, use permits, design review, tentative maps, and General Plan and zoning amendments, as needed. As Planning staff augmentation, our planners regularly coordinate with project developers, property owners, contractors, engineers and architects; prepare staff reports, resolutions, ordinances and conditions of approval; and present to appointed Commissions, Planning Commission, City Council or Board of Supervisors.
CSG's approach to current and long-range planning is to “dig in” and become familiar with the City’s General Plan, zoning code, ongoing projects, and development trends so that we may best assist the City. Our approach includes:
Analyzing a project’s compliance with the City’s plans, policies and regulations. Our staff is familiar with conducting plan checks and design review; evaluating Tentative Maps, development permits, conditional use permits, and other permits; and, conducting General Plan and zoning amendments; Reviewing and processing both ministerial and discretionary applications; Researching, compiling and analyzing social, economic, environmental and associated data; Preparing necessary long-range planning documents and amendments; Meeting with developers, their consultants and other project proponents, such as property owners and other interested groups, for any project. We recognize that these are important groups or individuals to any project; and Providing public counter services, including but not limited to, answering general questions and processing Zoning Clearances, Accessory Dwelling Unit Zone Clearances, Temporary Use Permits, Home Occupation Permits, and/or Short-Term Rental permits.
Members of our staff are currently actively working in agency offices, holding regular office hours, and answering public inquiries by email, mail, or telephone. However, given current COVID-19 restrictions, we also provide services remotely for several jurisdictions. Our staff are available to attend community meetings and present at public hearings; prepare staff reports, resolutions, ordinances; and prepare oral and/or electronic presentations. CSG staff also has knowledge and experience in providing affordable housing support, preparing and administering grants, preparing parking studies, performing fiscal and economic analyses, as well as providing Geographic Information System (GIS) assistance.

APPROACH TO WORK – ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING/REVIEW SERVICES CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG) brings specialized expertise, knowledgeable and highly experienced staff, and proximity which facilitates communication and rapid response. As a proud partner working with many of the local communities and industry associations, CSG has successfully contributed to the fabric of community development services in the region.
CSG recognizes that future agency projects, depending on their type, size, and issues of concern, may require several different types of CEQA processes. The work program will be initiated following completion and confirmation of the Project Description.
Additionally, and more specifically, we embrace the following steps in the review process:
Establish a communications protocol and technical leads, including subconsultants and other key team members, to ensure project critical information is efficiently and accurately conveyed across the team. Ensure roles/responsibilities are clear for efficient management of assignments and quality control of services and deliverables.
Utilize experienced staff with extensive relevant experience who will do the job right the first time. Agree on initial project schedule, budget, and protocol for updating status during all project phases. Determine key project description details with the City early to facilitate accurate and consistent reviews and analysis.
Verify that the technical approach/scope of services, as conveyed in the proposal, meet San Fernando’s expectations following completion of the Project Description. Collaborate up front with the City on standard templates for project deliverables, including peer review technical memoranda and CEQA document components.
Communications and Techniques. As previously mentioned, CSG’s goal is to provide cost-effective, technically sound, and legally defensible environmental consulting and documentation services to our municipal clients. To this end, we emphasize frequent, informal communications with agencies and prepare concise verbal and written summaries of project information that can be readily shared with project participants and City staff. Our firm’s management style involves “no surprises”, which means that if we encounter a challenge or constraint, we will immediately notify the City and be prepared to provide proven, short and/or long-term strategies for remedying any situation we encounter. Our project management philosophy revolves around an infrastructure of effective communications and problem solving, resulting in effective results for a particular situation.
Developing Project Descriptions and Context. One of the most important factors in preparing a legally defensible environmental document is having a complete and accurate understanding of the proposed project/action prior to initiating environmental analysis or review. Taking the time to fully describe “the whole of the action” can result in significant time and cost savings. Further, initiating technical studies and starting the CEQA process at the appropriate time eliminates the need to backtrack and redo analysis due to new or changing project circumstances. CSG will assist City staff in defining the precise location and boundaries of all of the components, facilities, and associated infrastructure to be studied for a proposed project. CSG will also assist the City in identifying opportunities to keep a project moving forward, despite uncertainties. For example, if a specific utility alignment is not yet known, CSG can evaluate a larger area in the field in order to provide flexibility in the project design, while allowing the environmental studies to proceed.
Conducting Preliminary Environmental Compliance Review. CSG’s proposed approach to preparing environmental documentation is reflective of our experience in dealing with the preparation of documentation for a wide range of projects. After conducting a preliminary environmental compliance review to confirm whether and at what level a project is subject to CEQA, CSG will consider whether a statutory or categorical exemption may apply and provide the appropriate recommendation. CSG will also evaluate whether a project may be eligible to utilize one or more of the applicable CEQA streamlining provisions.

Preparing Initial Studies. When it is determined that a project/action is subject to CEQA and no statutory or categorical exemptions/exclusions apply, CSG would recommend that an Initial Study be prepared to determine the level of CEQA clearance that is required. An Initial Study is the common supporting review documentation for a (mitigated) negative declaration determination. In certain instances, we know early on that a proposed activity may have the potential to result in significant impacts and that the preparation of an EIR will be required.
In these cases, depending upon a project’s circumstances, CSG can either bypass the preparation of an initial study and immediately proceed with preparing an EIR, or we may recommend that it is beneficial to prepare an Initial Study as a tool for scoping an EIR to only those topical areas that may result in a potentially significant impact.
Preparing EIRs. When there is substantial evidence that a proposed project or action may result in potentially significant impacts on the environment, CSG provides the technical capabilities and expertise to assist our agency clients in preparing an EIR, including, but not limited to: defining the project description, identifying stakeholders and affected agencies, maintaining the administrative record, preparing and distributing the notice of preparation for a 30 day review, conducting a scoping meeting, preparing supporting technical reports and Administrative Draft EIR for internal review, preparing and circulating the Public Review Draft EIR for a 45 day review period, drafting responses to comments, preparing the Final EIR and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, preparing Findings of Facts, and, as necessary, preparing a Statement of Overriding Considerations to support a lead agency’s final decision on a project.
Leveraging Knowledge of Local, State, and Federal Regulations. CSG regularly works with regulatory agencies through the CEQA process to identify, discuss, and resolve key environmental issues, as well as during the regulatory permitting phases of a project. We have professional working relationships with local, State, and Federal agency staff and can facilitate discussions and meetings as needed for items and issues for discussion. Our management and technical staff have excellent working relationships with Caltrans, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Regional Water Quality Control Boards, California Housing and Community Development, the Army Corps of Engineers, and other State and Federal agencies.
Public Input Processes and Dissemination of Information. CSG will help the City ensure that responses to public comments received on environmental documents are complete and accurate for the purposes of CEQA. CSG can assist the City in preparing robust community outreach plans that include ongoing public engagement opportunities, or we can attend public hearings and meetings either to answer questions on the City’s behalf or present our findings to the decision-making body. Should any additional/new public comments be raised at these hearings and meetings, CSG can assist the City in appropriately responding to these comments.
Ensuring Compliance with Processing and Legal Requirements. The CSG team has historically prepared CEQA documentation for low to highly controversial projects and we have an excellent record of legal defensibility for the documentation we prepare. We exercise particular care to ensure that CSG’s environmental documents contain thorough environmental analysis and explicitly document all data sources and research contacts. This approach reduces the potential for successful legal challenges and assists lead agencies in preparing the administrative record.
CSG staff are experienced in conducting environmental review for controversial projects and we have developed research and documentation techniques that can reduce the potential for legal challenges.

Quality Assurance/Control. CSG is committed to providing high quality documentation that engenders client satisfaction, meets the needs of the project, and withstands legal scrutiny. Therefore, conducting in-house QA/QC reviews concurrently with the preparation of written technical documents is a critical part of our delivery of technically sound and legally defensible environmental documents. Our approach to achieving the envisioned level of quality includes the following steps: First, our QA/QC process begins with the assignment of staff members who have the appropriate technical expertise to complete the work. Second, all work products are prepared with oversight and reviewed by an assigned technical lead. Third, upon completion of the first internal draft of a technical document or report, it is reviewed by the project manager for consistency with the project description, compliance with the approved scope of work, and technical accuracy. Once the documentation has been revised and updated to the satisfaction of the project manager, it is sent to our technical editor for review of grammar, proper nomenclature, references, and methodology consistency. The last step before the document is submitted to the City is a thorough and complete word processing review that produces a correctly formatted document, with accurate references to tables, exhibits, appendices, and the table of contents. Only then is the document submitted to the City for review.

Quarterly Summary of the
October 17, 2024, South Bay Workforce Investment Board of Directors Meeting Hermosa Beach
This report summarizes the October 17, 2024, South Bay Workforce Investment Board’s (SBWIB) meeting activities and program accomplishments during the 1st Quarter of Program Year 2024-2025. As you are aware, the South Bay WIB is comprised of representatives from the eleven participating cities of Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Lawndale, El Segundo, Inglewood, Carson, Redondo Beach, Torrance, Hawthorne, Lomita and Gardena for the delivery of employment and training services through its One-Stop Business and Career Centers. *Last quarter, one Hermosa Beach resident was enrolled in the WIOA Adult Program.
*Two Hermosa Beach residents exited the WIOA Adult Program with employment during the last quarter.
*The South Bay Workforce Investment Board hosted its 29th Annual Awards Ceremony at the Intuit Dome on Thursday, November 14, 2024. The reception began at 5:30 p.m. followed by the dinner program at 7:00 p.m. This year, Steve Ballmer, Owner of the Los Angeles Clippers received the Esther Williams Award of Excellence and former SBWIB Board Member and representative for the Department of Rehabilitation, Susan Senior was awarded the Wayne Spencer Community Service Award. This Annual Awards Ceremony gives the SBWIB an opportunity to celebrate dedicated partners and customers, who continually strive for success, by showcasing individual, business, and partner success stories and highlighting training provider job placement rates.
*As part of the Youth at Work Jobs Program, two (2) Hermosa Beach youth were recruited and enrolled for an opportunity to receive 20 hours of paid preemployment training and 140 hours of paid work experience during the first quarter. Youth had a chance to earn up to $2,500 under this program. *Last quarter, the SBWIB continued reaching out to partners including other Workforce Development Boards, employers, colleges, universities and other partners via e-mail, telephone, and Zoom to assess each company’s status and Page 1020 of 1536 encourage them to utilize the Department of Labor’s (DOL) America Building Apprenticeships (ABA) grant, which aims to develop, create and expand apprenticeships in this Country, as a workforce development pipeline solution.
Under the ABA Grant, the SBWIB created a Registered Apprenticeship Hub in an effort to address the increasing demand for skilled professionals throughout California. The funding is utilized to assist partners with enrolling 800 participants into registered apprenticeship programs and another 200 into pre-apprenticeships, that prepare candidates for high demand jobs in the manufacturing, healthcare, information technology/cybersecurity, arts, media and entertainment, and clean energy/transportation sectors over a four-year period. The ABA grant also allows the South Bay WIB to assist other entities with staff time to build, create, and expand apprenticeships. A total of twenty-nine (29) new apprentices were enrolled during the first quarter.
*During the first quarter, the State of California’s Employment Training Panel (ETP) awarded the South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) a $726,810 grant to continue its upskills training program. The new funding will allow the SBWIB to continue partnering with employers to deliver targeted training that fosters innovation, increases operational efficiency, and empowers workers with new skills and career advancement opportunities. Last quarter, five hundred and thirty-one (531) workers across the South Bay Region received upskills training, boosting productivity and career advancement opportunities. The workers were employed in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, information technology, and aerospace, and are now earning an average wage of $43.50 an hour. *Last quarter, the South Bay WIB made history becoming the first Workforce Development Board in the nation to be approved to register non-traditional apprenticeship programs for national use. This milestone will allow the SBWIB to support companies with apprenticeship programs that are scalable and transferrable across all fifty (50) States, helping businesses expand their skilled labor pool wherever they operate. Thus far, through the SBWIB’s partnership with Northrop Grumman, Joby Aero, Magnetika, Inc., and the Institute for American Apprenticeships, three (3) apprenticeships were successfully registered nationally:
Electronic Assembler, Aerospace Systems Assembler, and Aerospace Systems Technician.
*The County of Los Angeles’ Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) has contracted with the South Bay WIB for assistance with enrolling one hundred (100) youth from high poverty areas into the High Road Training Partnerships (HRTP) AME (Arts, Media, and Entertainment) grant by December 31, 2026. The SBWIB is serving as the administrator of the grant handling the contracting, monitoring,
reporting, etc. Services offered to the youth will include on-the-job training, connection to union and non-union jobs, enrollment into registered apprenticeship programs, and supportive services.
In an effort to support the development of youth apprenticeships, the South Bay Workforce Investment Board in collaboration with CareerWise, a vendor contracted by the California Workforce Association (CWA), developed a webinar targeting superintendents and career technical education (CTE) program leaders from schools in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. The webinar was held on October 11th and during the event, the SBWIB provided an overview of the California Opportunity Youth Apprenticeship (COYA) Program to workforce development entities, School District representatives, and community college partners.
*The State of California Department of Industrial Relations awarded the South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) a $1 million COYA (California Opportunity Youth Apprenticeship) Grant to enroll opportunity youth into advanced manufacturing, aerospace, bioscience, healthcare, information technology, arts, media, and entertainment, and energy/climate pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs. Under the Grant, high school seniors will complete their apprenticeship with local employers after school a couple days out of the week. Once the students graduate high school, they will enroll into a community college to complete a certificate program while continuing to work with the apprenticeship employer. The SBWIB will utilize this funding to also develop a pathway for out-of-school youth. During the first quarter, the SBWIB built strategic partnerships, conducted outreach to schools and employers, and created awareness of the apprenticeship pathways.
*Last quarter, the SBWIB renewed its liaison contract with El Camino College for Program Year 2024 – 2025 which entails having SBWIB staff onsite at El Camino College providing career services, workshops, and assistance with job and internship placements. Since July, SBWIB staff have been able to engage and offer over seventy-three (73) recruiting and hiring events to El Camino College students.
The UCLA, CSC Security, SoFi Stadium, and City of Carson Recruitment Fairs were some of the events offered. The first quarter totals reflect that the SBWIB has placed seven (7) El Camino College students into an employment opportunity or internship, hosted four (4) onsite workshops and presentations, and provided students with one hundred (100) job leads. The workshops and presentations provided covered the topics of resume building, interviewing skills, and work readiness training through the SBWIB’s Blueprint for Workplace Success
curriculum. For the fall semester, the SBWIB is planning an on-campus recruitment event with a local employer to fill environmental careers. *The South Bay Workforce Investment Board serves as the Regional Program and Fiscal Agent on behalf of the Los Angeles Basin under the Prison to Employment (P2E) Program and the HIRED (Help Justice-Involved Reenter Employment) LA Initiative. Under the P2E Program, the SBWIB along with the Los Angeles City, Los Angeles County, Foothill, Pacific Gateway, SELACO, and Verdugo Workforce Development Boards provide career services and occupational training to formerly incarcerated and justice system involved individuals. As of September 30th, the SBWIB and partners provided services to six hundred and seventeen (617) formerly incarcerated individuals with three hundred and eighteen (318) entering training, fifteen (15) obtaining their training credentials, and thirty-one (31) securing unsubsidized employment. The HIRED LA Initiative also provides career services and occupational training to justice involved individuals. Still in the beginning stage, SBWIB and partners have enrolled a total of twenty-four (24) individuals under the HIRED LA Initiative and one participant has already secured full-time employment.
*The South Bay WIB is actively recruiting a total of fifty (50) students with disabilities ages 16 – 22 to receive work readiness services through the Student Training and Employment Program (STEP). The grant funding will be utilized to provide the students with one hundred (100) paid work experience hours to enhance their skills while interning with local non-profits, community-based organizations, and for-profit businesses. Ongoing recruitment and enrollments will take place until December 31, 2024.
*During the first quarter, the SBWIB and the International Pre-Diabetes Center (IPDC) hosted two graduation ceremonies for two (2) cohorts that successfully completed the Community Health Worker (CHW) Program. Under the Community Health Worker Program, participants are trained to inform and connect underserved communities with healthcare resources in their local communities including vaccines. A total of forty-six (46) individuals have successfully completed training and graduated from the CHW Program.
*America's Job Center of California (AJCC)/One-Stop Services – The SBWIB operates four One-Stop Business & Career Service Centers located in Torrance, Gardena, Inglewood and Carson. The One-Stop Centers are open to the public, continue to offer services virtually or in-person, and highly recommend scheduling an appointment for services. Each South Bay One-Stop Business & Career Center continues to assist about 25-30 laid-off workers daily with applying for
unemployment insurance benefits. Recruitments, workshops, orientation/info sessions, case management, and career pathway counseling are provided virtually or in-person. Clients are being assisted with crossing over in their short-term vocational training programs from the traditional seat-based instruction to distance learning platforms. The Job Development team conducts recruitment fairs inperson or virtually and will continue to screen and refer applicants to essential service employers that are in desperate need of employees. *Last quarter, two (2) participants exited the Homeless Opportunity for Meaningful Employment (HOME) special grant with gainful employment. Under the HOME Program, homeless individuals receive specialized services including comprehensive career counseling, housing referrals, referrals to behavioral health partners, and employment and training services.
*On September 26th, the Inglewood One-Stop Business and Career Center’s Transitional Subsidized Employment (TSE) Program staff co-hosted the yearly GAIN (Greater Avenues for Independence) Region I Job Fair. Sixty (60) employers and over five hundred (500) job seekers were in attendance. *Rapid Response services were provided to six (6) South Bay companies that employ nine hundred and thirty-four (934) individuals who were affected by layoffs/closures during the first quarter of Program Year 2024-2025. The SBWIB’s Rapid Response team reached out to the employers and offered to provide webinars to assist with the layoffs. The webinars covered services offered at the America’s Job Centers of California, unemployment insurance, healthcare options, and financial services. The Rapid Response team will continue to provide webinars and virtual assistance to employers and dislocated workers. *Program Year 2024 – 2025 first quarter totals reflect that the SBWIB has enrolled one hundred and twenty-nine (129) individuals in the statewide Quest National Dislocated Worker Recovery Grant (QNDWG) exceeding the enrollment goal of 125 individuals. Under this program, displaced workers are provided with job training and placement services. The California Employment Development Department (EDD) awarded the South Bay WIB the QNDWG to assist workers displaced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or with barriers to employment.
So far, fifty-four (54) out of sixty-nine (69) participants exited the program with employment.
*The South Bay Workforce Investment Board is partnered with the California Workforce Development Board (CWDB) to provide support services under the Partners for Reentry Opportunities in Workforce Development (PROWD) Grant.
The implementation of the project will take place across three stages. Stage One will take place onsite for individuals in custody at the Terminal Island Prison Facility. The second stage will be continued supportive services as these individuals are released to Residential Reentry Centers. The third and final stage will see these services continue as the participants are released from the Centers back into the community. A total of Seventy-two (72) incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals are currently enrolled.
*In an effort to address job shortages in healthcare last quarter, the South Bay Workforce Investment Board engaged with new businesses in the healthcare industry, including USC Health, HOAG, and UCI Health.
*The California Workforce Development Board awarded the South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) $650,000 under the Workforce Accelerator Grant Fund 12 (WAF 12) to improve job quality and access for underserved and underrepresented populations including out-of-school youth and adults with barriers. Fifty (50) individuals will be enrolled under this grant and receive career services that include on-the-job training and paid work experience.

Mr. Brandyn Kelso, Youth Programs Coordinator for the South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) provided the Youth Development Council Committee with a verbal presentation regarding the Insomniac Field Trip. Insomniac invited Inglewood and Hawthorne Teen Center youth to participate in an exclusive informational tour of HARD Summer 2024 at the SoFi Stadium on August 2, 2024.

One-Stop Policy Committee Meeting, August 21, 2024:
The August 21, 2024, One-Stop Policy Committee meeting was called to order at 9:01 a.m. The following items were discussed or acted upon:
The One-Stop Policy Committee held an appeal hearing regarding training provider Caledonian’s “Hold” status on the State’s Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL) and the South Bay Workforce Investment Board’s (SBWIB) I-TRAIN Local Training Provider Directory. The SBWIB was instructed by the State to place the training provider on “Hold” due to the California Department of Insurance Fraud Division investigating and the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office filing charges against Caledonian’s Owner and President, William Frias. To appeal to the State, a training provider must first appeal on the local level with the Workforce Development Board that listed them on the ETPL. After hearing the appeal from Caledonian, the Committee unanimously denied the training provider’s appeal. The training provider will now be able to appeal on the State level if they wish to do so.
During the meeting, the Committee also held appeal hearings for California Career Institute and Intech College regarding the training providers being delisted from the ETPL and SBWIB I-TRAIN Local Training Provider Directory. The State instructed the SBWIB to delist these training providers due to their failure to have at least one Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) funded enrollment during the previous two program years.
After hearing from both appellants, the One-Stop Policy Committee unanimously voted to deny both training provider appeals. The training providers were informed that they can apply for relisting on the ETPL after six months of being delisted.
The May 8, 2024, meeting minutes as well as the Program Year (PY) 2023-24, Fourth Quarter Activity Summaries for Classroom Training Providers were approved by the Committee.
Ms. Alma Lopez provided the Committee with updates regarding disability services offered by the SBWIB and its partners.
Ms. Justina Munoz presented the AJCC (America's Job Center of California) Partner MOU between the SBWIB and Da Vinci Schools and it was unanimously approved by the Committee.
During the meeting, the One-Stop Policy Committee also unanimously approved the results and recommendations of the SBWIB Comprehensive and Affiliate AJCC (America’s Job Center of California) Certifications.
The Committee was provided with the fourth quarter One-Stop Operator Activities Report and copies of the approved WIOA On-the-Job Training and Out-of-School Youth Waivers.

Ms. Laura Bischoff presented the 4th quarter Vendor Performance Report.

During the meeting, Mr. Chris Cagle provided the Committee with updates on Pre-Apprenticeship and Apprenticeship Programs, the Apprenticeship Building America grant, the National Space Workforce Coalition, the California Opportunity Youth Apprenticeship (COYA) Grant, and Employment Training Panel funding.

4 | P age
Committee Meetings:
The Executive Committee approved all committee reports and meeting minutes this past quarter.
The 1st quarter Monthly Self-Service and Program Activity Reports were reviewed by the Committee and approved unanimously.
In August, the Executive Committee ratified the submission of the WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) Waivers for the on-the-job training program, and out-of-school youth expenditures. The Onthe-Job Training (OJT) Waiver allows the reimbursement of up to 90 percent of on-the-job training costs for businesses with 50 or fewer employees. The Out-of-School Youth (OSY) Expenditure Waiver decreases the out-of-school youth expenditure requirement from 75 percent to 50 percent which will allow for the expansion of programs for in-school youth in coordination with the SBWIB’s long standing education partners.
Last quarter, the Executive Committee ratified the One-Stop Policy Committee’s decision of upholding EDD’s decision of delisting California Career Institute and Intech College on the Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL) and placing Caledonian, Inc. on hold status.
In September, the Executive Committee ratified the AJCC (America’s Job Centers of California) Partner MOU between the SBWIB and Da Vinci Schools.
During the 1st Quarter, the Executive Committee reviewed and unanimously approved the comprehensive, affiliate, and specialized AJCC Baseline Criteria Matrix and the AJCC Certification Indicator Assessment.
Last quarter, the Executive Committee unanimously approved staff recommendations and results for the ARPA High Roads Training Partners (HRTP) Arts Media, and Entertainment (AME) Request for Proposals (RFP).
The Executive Committee approved the following directives during the fourth quarter: Directives No. 18-02 – SBWIB Grievance & Compliant Resolution Procedures, Directive No. 24-01 – 70% LLSIL and Poverty Guidelines for 2024, Directives No. 22-03 – Debt Collection, and Directive No. 24-03 – Recovery of WIOA Tuition and Training Refunds.
During the October 10th meeting, the South Bay Workforce Investment Board October 17, 2024, Meeting Agenda was unanimously approved.
This concludes the Executive Committee Report.

Herald Publications - El Segundo, Hawthorne, Lawndale & Inglewood Community Newspapers Since 1911 - (310) 322-1830 - Vol. 6, No. 42 - October 17, 2024 Lawndale Tribune Hawthorne Press Tribune AND lAwNDAle News Featuring the Weekly Newspapers of Hawthorne, Inglewood and Lawndale A First for the Board and the Country
By Ron Sokol
I was emailed a press release that truly
caught my attention: South Bay Workforce
Investment Board Becomes the First Workforce
Board in the U.S. to Register Non-Traditional
Apprenticeship Program Nationally.
To be certain, the South Bay can take genuine pride as the home base of the Workforce Investment Board. So, let me share a bit about
this dedicated group:
The Board encompasses eleven cities: El
Segundo, Gardena, Hawthorne, Hermosa
Beach, Inglewood, Lawndale, Torrance,
Lomita, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach,
and Carson. Over fty people are on the
Board, which for decades has embraced very
focused goals: “We will promote an innovative
workforce development system that supports
job retention and creation and accelerates
economic growth in the South Bay region.”
Now, the reach of the South Bay Workforce
Board has expanded to other locations across
the country.
Jan Vogel has been the Executive Director
of the Board for over forty years.I contacted
Jan and his colleague Chris Cagle, the Board’s
Director of Business Services and Apprenticeship. Excuse the metaphor, but for me, it was kind of like interviewing Babe Ruth and Lou
Gehrig at the same time. They, of course,
will nd that description way over the top.
Jan and Chris will say, very matter-of-factly:
“This is our job, Ron, it’s why we’re here…”
A few examples of the Board’s successes,
and then back to the first-in-the-nation
press release:
Over one thousand apprentices through the
South Bay Board were among those who
helped build the remarkable SoFi Stadium.
This multi-billion dollar structure has many
moving parts and now has quite an international
reputation. It is already a notably popular venue.
In addition, the Board has received two of
the largest federal national Emergency Grants
in history, each provided by the Department
of Labor. This led to training thousands of
laid-off workers, local residents, and youth to
get them back to work. Bottom line, when
times are tough -- think about when we have
suffered in recession or from Covid -- the
Board has strived mightily to be a safety net.
Further, through a contract with the Los
Angeles Department of Public Social Services,
the Board has provided Cal Works participants
with opportunities not just to get a job but
to stay employed and then achieve higher
pay. One of the Board’s consistent goals is
to foster self-sufciency and independence.
CalWorks, if you are not familiar with it,
means California Work Opportunity and
Responsibility to Kids Program. The Board
wants to and does help youth, particularly
those with limited resources.
And you may be familiar with the Board’s
One-Stop Business & Career Centers in
Gardena, Inglewood, Hathorne, and Carson.
These are aimed at helping to develop each
individual’s job skills, abilities, and attitudes.
The extent and breadth of job placements
through the One-Stop Centers are many and
speak for themselves.
So, then, to the press release about apprenticeships, which are also part of the Board’s bread and butter.

AND lAwNDAle News
Herald Publications - El Segundo, Hawthorne, Lawndale & Inglewood Community Newspapers Since 1911 - (310) 322-1830 - Vol. 83, No. 42 - October 17, 2024 The Weekly Newspaper of Lawndale
The Board’s Ofce Building 2024 Job Fair
Traditional apprenticeships are in elds
such as construction, building and trades,
and certain parts of the health care industry.
There are years of history there, but Jan
made it quite clear:
“The Governor set a goal to get 500,000 new
apprentices in 2029, and the President is even
more ambitious by making apprenticeship a
national priority. To get there, we cannot limit
the program to what have traditionally been
apprenticeship programs, such as electrical,
plumbing, framing, painting, and the like.
This is why we have developed a program
for almost any kind of occupation, which
businesses, big or small, can use to their
real benet. The focus is on attracting new
employees, training them, and for the business
to then be in a position to retain good workers.
As just one example, we can help by putting
together a template for manufacturing jobs.
Aero-Flex and Space-Flex were designed to
serve the aerospace sector but have become
a means of expanding apprenticeship models
nationwide. Through the non-traditional apprentice program, companies receive access to a pipeline of talented job seekers ready for
immediate employment in areas like advanced
manufacturing and engineering.”
Jan and Chris shared with me that the
Board decided to register its apprenticeships
nationwide. In part, this is because some local
companies have multiple locations, many
in other states. The time spent setting up a
program here can now scale to wherever they
do business. The non-traditional apprenticeship program allows the Board to support the efforts of employers to get people trained,
to get people in the pipeline working, and
to assist employers at multiple sites literally
across the USA.
“We don’t need a template for the traditional,” Jan explained. “The traditional apprentice programs already have great organizations,
but with non-traditional, we must help design
them. Non-traditional apprenticeship can be
just about anything, like manufacturing, as
well as maintenance and clerical.”
Chris chimed in: “We just completed a
grant where our goal was to provide ve
thousand individuals into non-traditional

say we exceeded that gure.”
Hopefully, then, this column does an adequate job of explaining the press release which caught my attention. A press release
that rightly touts the success of the Board’s
non-traditional apprenticeship program. Also,
if you know a bit more about the South Bay

South Bay Workforce Investment Board Becomes the First Workforce Board in the U.S. to Register Non-Traditional Apprenticeship Program Nationally Hawthorne, CA – The South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) has made history by becoming the first workforce board in the nation to register their non-traditional apprenticeship programs for national use. This milestone will allow SBWIB to support companies with apprenticeship programs that are scalable and transferable across all 50 states, helping businesses expand their skilled labor pool wherever they operate.
SBWIB Executive Director Jan Vogel hailed the achievement, stating, "We are excited to be at the forefront of this national effort. By registering our apprenticeship programs for nationwide use, we’re empowering businesses to develop their workforce more effectively and efficiently. This is a gamechanger for companies that have operations in multiple states, as it allows them to implement consistent, high-quality training across the board."
SBWIB partnered with California employers—Northrop Grumman, Joby Aero, Magnetika, Inc.—and the Institute for American Apprenticeship to launch three registered apprenticeships: Electronic Assembler, Aerospace Systems Assembler, and Aerospace Systems Technician. These partners recognize the value of an apprenticeship model that is flexible, scalable, and capable of meeting the dynamic needs of various industries. Partial funding for this initiative across California was provided by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Apprenticeship Building America (ABA) Grant awarded to SBWIB.
What is a Non-Traditional Apprenticeship?
Unlike traditional apprenticeship programs, which focus on skilled trades in construction or in public safety, non-traditional apprenticeships expand the model into high-growth sectors such as healthcare, information technology, aerospace, energy, and advanced manufacturing. These programs offer handson, industry-specific training that equips individuals with the practical skills needed for a wide variety of fields.
"Non-traditional apprenticeships provide customized, flexible training that addresses the specific needs of businesses," Vogel explained. "By offering a broad range of apprenticeships across different industries, we help companies develop their workforce in a way that aligns with their unique business goals while also creating meaningful career pathways for workers."
Benefits for Apprentices and Employers
Apprentices benefit from hands-on training that prepares them for real-world challenges, allowing them to develop skills that are directly applicable to their chosen careers. Upon completing the program, apprentices earn a nationally recognized certificate from the U.S. Department of Labor, opening doors to better job opportunities and higher earning potential.
For employers, non-traditional apprenticeship programs offer a cost-effective way to train both new hires and incumbent workers. They provide an opportunity to build a loyal, skilled workforce while improving productivity and retention rates. Companies also have the flexibility to tailor training to their specific needs, ensuring their employees stay ahead of industry trends.
One notable success story is the Aero-Flex and Space-Flex apprenticeship programs developed by SBWIB.
Originally designed to serve the aerospace sector, these programs have become a template for expanding apprenticeship models nationwide. Northrop Grumman has been a key partner, utilizing AeroFlex to address the skills gap in advanced manufacturing and engineering. Through the program, participating companies receive access to a pipeline of talented job seekers ready for immediate employment.
Non-traditional apprenticeship programs offer a unique and effective way to develop skilled labor. By investing in non-traditional apprenticeship programs, employers can develop a skilled and productive workforce that can help them achieve their business objectives.
National Reach and Strategic Partnerships
The SBWIB’s decision to register their apprenticeships for national use was driven by the needs of local California businesses, many of which operate across multiple states. "Companies told us they wanted to implement apprenticeships, but needed a solution that would work across state lines. Now, the apprenticeship programs we help them develop in California can be used wherever they do business across America," Vogel said.
This effort was further supported by SBWIB’s work under a White House Initiative which aims to develop a skilled technical workforce for the space industry. This effort began two years ago and from this initiative the national Space Workforce Coalition (SWC) was formed. [ https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/04/08/fact-sheet-vicepresident-kamala-harris-launches-call-to-action-to-bring-the-benefits-of-space-to-communities-acrossamerica/ ] The SWC brings together regional programs from across the country to collaborate on addressing workforce needs, particularly for underrepresented groups in STEM careers; especially for those that may not otherwise have access to these types of career paths and opportunities. SWC members lead regional programs in California, Colorado, Alabama, Florida’s Space Coast, the Gulf Coast of Louisiana and Mississippi. [ https://www.spaceworkforcecoalition.org/ ] The Southern California HUB is led by Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (NGC) and the South Bay Workforce Investment Board. Coalition members, which includes NASA, collaborate with community colleges, employers, and many other partners on replicable and scalable approaches to attract, train and create employment opportunities.
Earlier this year, the work being done in California attracted the attention of the White House and the National Space Council, leading to a visit by Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff during Women's History Month. He hosted the first-ever National Space Council Roundtable on Women in Space at the South Bay Workforce Investment Board's corporate offices in Hawthorne. [ https://www.nasa.gov/imagearticle/second-gentleman-douglas-emhoff-participates-in-women-in-space-roundtable/ ] These partnerships with NASA, Northrop Grumman, and other industry leaders are part of a larger strategy to make the U.S. a global leader in space exploration and technology. The SBWIB's nationally registered apprenticeship programs support this work.
The Future of Workforce Development
With the additional reach and flexibility provided by their nationally registered programs, SBWIB is poised to expand apprenticeships in a range of industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, energy, and the arts. The board’s continued focus on non-traditional apprenticeship programs is set to shape the future of workforce development across the U.S.
"Workforce development is key to economic growth," Vogel emphasized. "Our nationally registered apprenticeship programs not only help companies stay competitive, but they also provide individuals with the skills and opportunities needed to succeed in today’s evolving economy."

South Bay Workforce Investment Board Awarded $1 Million Grant to Expand Apprenticeship Programs for Disadvantaged Youth
Hawthorne, CA – A Hawthorne, CA – The South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) has been awarded a $1 million California Opportunity Youth Apprenticeship (COYA) Grant by the California Department of Industrial Relations and its Division of Apprenticeship Standards. The funding will be used to create and expand apprenticeship programs for disadvantaged youth across the region and surrounding areas.
The two-year project will leverage new and existing community partnerships to provide training and employment opportunities for targeted youth populations, including individuals from foster care, justice-involved youth, youth parents, individuals with disabilities, and those from low-income communities. The program aims to enroll 100 individuals, offering comprehensive support such as training, mentoring, career guidance, and placement into apprenticeship programs leading to employment.
Participants will have the opportunity to enter apprenticeship programs across five key sectors:
advanced manufacturing (aerospace and bioscience), IT, healthcare, arts, media and entertainment, and energy. The goal is to help these young individuals gain the skills and experience needed to build sustainable careers in high-demand industries.
“This grant award highlights our long-standing success in providing disadvantaged youth access to career pathways through apprenticeships, helping them secure high-paying careers,” said SBWIB Executive Director Jan Vogel.

South Bay Workforce Investment Board Celebrates Upskilling of 531 Workers and Secures Addi�onal $726,810 for Employee Training Program
Hawthorne, CA—The South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) is pleased to announce the successful comple�on of an employee training program that has upskilled 531 workers across the Southland, boos�ng produc�vity and advancing career opportuni�es. These workers, employed in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, informa�on technology, and aerospace, are now earning an average wage of $43.50 per hour. The training ini�a�ves were funded by the State of California Employment Training Panel (ETP) and administered by SBWIB.
In recogni�on of the program’s posi�ve outcomes, ETP has awarded SBWIB an addi�onal $726,810 to extend the project for another two years. This new funding will allow SBWIB to con�nue partnering with employers to deliver targeted training that fosters innova�on, increases opera�onal efficiency, and empowers workers with new skills and advancement opportuni�es. "We’re thrilled, not only with the impact this program has had, but also with the new funding from ETP that will allow us to keep driving workforce development across key industries," said Jan Vogel, Execu�ve Director of SBWIB. "This extension gives us the opportunity to upskill even more workers, helping businesses grow, while ensuring employees have the skills they need to thrive in today’s economy." Cen�nela Hospital Praises SBWIB’s Employment Training Panel Grant Program Cen�nela Hospital Medical Center in Inglewood, CA, a key par�cipant in SBWIB’s Employment Training Panel (ETP) grant program, expressed deep apprecia�on for the support provided through the program. "The funding from SBWIB’s ETP grant has been instrumental in helping us train both our new hires and incumbent workers," said Mohammad Naser, CEO for the hospital. "This has allowed us to enhance the skills of our healthcare staff and ensure they are equipped to meet the demands of a constantly evolving healthcare environment. We are grateful for this partnership and look forward to con�nued collabora�on with SBWIB to further strengthen our workforce." The Airplane Factory Thrives with ETP Support
The Airplane Factory, based in Torrance, CA, has also seen benefits from SBWIB’s ETP grant program. "When we first joined the ETP program, we had only 30 employees. Today, we’ve grown to over 100," said Mat Liknaitzky, co-owner of The Airplane Factory. "This program has played an important part in our growth. With SBWIB’s support, we’ve been able to provide essen�al training to our Airframe and Powerplant mechanics and aircra� assembly workers, ensuring they maintain their skills and stay up-todate on the latest techniques. This has made our workforce more efficient and produc�ve, which has been cri�cal as we con�nue to expand. The ETP grant has been a vital tool in our growth and success."

Training Fuels Growth and Career Advancement
Through the ini�al phase of the program, employees received training in cri�cal areas like healthcare, machine opera�ons, IT systems, cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing techniques. As a result, par�cipa�ng companies have reported increased produc�vity and profitability. One partner, LeFiell Manufacturing company – an employee owned company, saw a 38% increase in employee training in 2023, directly contribu�ng to improved performance.
Many par�cipants have also advanced their careers as a result of the program. Numerous workers earned cer�fica�ons and promo�ons, including an hourly machine operator at LeFiell who was promoted to a Lead posi�on a�er comple�ng process and equipment training. Another success story involves an inspector who advanced to a Manufacturing Engineer role at LeFiell a�er receiving specialized training in inspec�on processes.
Impact Across Mul�ple Industries
ETP funding allowed SBWIB to partner with companies in various industries, tailoring training programs to address industry-specific needs. For example, LeFiell u�lized ETP support to train employees on enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, machine opera�ons, and inspec�on protocols. This training led to significant improvements in opera�onal efficiency.
Small businesses also benefited from the program. An automo�ve company used the funds to expand its Research and Development department and train its team in advanced automo�ve technology and engineering design, helping them stay compe��ve in a fast-changing market.
A key contributor to this project has been ‘Training Funding Partners’, whose exper�se and collabora�on with the SBWIB were instrumental in making the program successful, allowing SBWIB to enhance the impact of its training ini�a�ves and extend its reach to more businesses and workers across mul�ple industries.
Looking Ahead: Expanding the Reach of Workforce Development With the addi�onal $726,810 in funding from ETP, SBWIB will con�nue to provide valuable training opportuni�es over the next two years. These efforts will focus on expanding upskilling ini�a�ves in sectors where training has already proven highly effec�ve, ensuring that businesses and employees across California remain compe��ve and adaptable in the evolving economy. "Our collabora�on with ETP has been incredibly frui�ul, and we are excited about the next phase of the program," said Vogel. "The addi�onal funding will enable us to extend these training opportuni�es, fostering further growth for businesses and crea�ng more pathways for workers to advance in their careers."

Meeting Date: January 14, 2025
Staff Report No. 25-AS-006
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
UPDATE TO THE SALARIES FOR PART-TIME POSITIONS
(Interim Human Resources Manager Cynthia Stafford)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approve a resolution and Temporary Employee Salary Table updating the hourly wages for part-time positions (Attachments 1 and 2).
Executive Summary:
The minimum wage for the State of California increased to $16.50 effective January 1, 2025. As a result, staff recommends an increase to the wages for several temporary parttime positions to maintain existing differentials between the levels of part-time positions.
Additionally, to be competitive with the labor market, staff recommends creation of Intern II and Intern III positions to provide competitive compensation based on an individual’s education and the work to be performed.
Background:
The minimum wage for the State of California increased to $16.50 effective January 1, 2025. The City of Hermosa Beach has historically maintained differentials between levels of temporary part-time classifications to ensure that there is a recognition of the differences in scope of responsibility in the part-time series, including an appropriate differential between the entry-level position and the supervisory position. The increase to the State minimum wage necessitates an update to the City’s part-time wages to maintain the differentials.
In addition, the City uses interns in departments to work on special projects. The interns are usually juniors and seniors in college and hiring interns is an excellent method to recruit for the City’s fulltime positions. The City currently pays its interns minimum wage and this wage is not competitive with our labor market. As a result, the City has tremendous difficulty recruiting interns, with positions left vacant for months. Staff recommends creation of Intern II and Intern III positions to provide competitive compensation based on an individual’s education, qualifications, and the work to be performed.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
Analysis:
In accordance with Subdivision (a) of California Code of Regulations §570.5, a member agency shall have a publicly available pay scale adopted by the governing body. Staff recommends the following changes be made to the Temporary Employee Salary Table (Attachment 2).
Update the temporary part-time positions wages as follows:
GRADE POSITION CURRENT
STEP 1
UPDATED
STEP 1
T5 Lead Theatre Technician $ 25.60 $ 26.40
T6 Theatre Technician $ 20.80 $ 21.45
T09 Intern $ 16.00 $ 16.50
T10 Youth Programs Counselor $ 16.80 $ 17.33
T11 Lead Youth Programs Counselor $ 19.20 $ 19.80
T12 Recreation Leader $ 16.00 $ 16.50
Create the following Intern II and III classifications:
Grade Position Hourly Rate
T73 Intern II (New) $20.00
T74 Intern III (New) $24.00
Title Change, to better reflect the duties being performed:
Grade Title From Title To
T40 Temp Accounting Manager Senior Finance Analyst
If approved, the City would not increase the number of temporary part-time positions authorized in the adopted FY 2024–25 budget. Staff only recommends an increase in the hourly wage for existing budgeted part-time positions to meet market demands, comply with State law, and provide internal equity.
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:
Governance Element
Goal 1. A high degree of transparency and integrity in the decision-making process.
Policy:
1.2 Strategic planning. Regularly discuss and set priorities at the City Council and management level to prioritize work programs and staffing needs.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3
Fiscal Impact:
The estimated additional cost for the increase in part-time wages for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2024–25 is $6,000. Approximately $4,500 of the additional cost would be absorbed by the Community Resources Department and the $1,500 remainder would be absorbed by departments in the FY 2024–25 Part-Time/Temporary Budget.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
DESIGNATION OF A MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF FEE WAIVER GRANTS FOR SPECIAL EVENTS HELD IN 2025
(Lead Special Events and Filming Coordinator Madison Schrock) Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council designate a maximum amount of $5,000 in fee waiver grant funding for special events held in 2025, as per the City’s Special Events Policy Guide.
Executive Summary:
The Community Resources Department is tasked with overseeing special events on public property. Per the Special Events Policy Guide (Attachment 1), City Council shall annually designate the maximum amount of fee waiver grant funding for eligible special events. Staff recommends Council designate the maximum amount of $5,000 in fee waiver grants for special events held in 2025.
Background:
The Community Resources Department is tasked with overseeing special events on public property. Per the Special Events Policy Guide, Council shall annually designate the maximum amount of fee waiver grant funding available to the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources Advisory Commission (Commission) to award to eligible events each calendar year. City Council designated a maximum of $20,000 in fee waiver grants annually for the 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 calendar years and $10,000 in fee waiver grants for the 2024 calendar year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, events were unable to be held in 2020 and from January through March of 2021. Attachment 2 includes information on the fee waiver grants awarded from April 2021 through 2024.
Organizations with events ineligible for a fee waiver grant may be eligible to apply for a long-term agreement (LTA), per the Special Events Policy Guide. LTAs allow event dates to be solidified for up to three years and an opportunity for event fees to be waived through the negotiation process between the City and the organization. Attachment 3 includes a table of the LTAs in place through the 2024 calendar year and the estimated total of fees waived. Additionally, Attachment 3 includes a table of the fees waived in 2024 for events produced between the City of Hermosa Beach and the Chamber to provide the Sidewalk
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 4
Sale events, St. Patrick’s Day Parade, Memorial Day Fiesta Hermosa, Locale 90254, and Hermosa for the Holidays.
The amount of fee waivers provided in the 2024 calendar year totals approximately $298,871.50, consisting of $4,459.50 in fee waivers, $109,969 in waivers related to LTAs, and $184,443 in waivers in support of the Chamber.
Discussion:
Per the Special Events Policy Guide, fee waiver grants may be awarded for up to a maximum of $2,500 per event or a 50 percent reduction of indirect costs, whichever is the lesser amount. Fee waiver grants are not applied toward direct costs. Included in Table 1 are the special events fees categorized between indirect and direct costs.
Indirect Costs

Category I (non-profit) $2 per participant and roster of participants due to City
Category I (commercial) 70/30 split of proceeds and roster of participants due to City
Category II $3,270 per event day

Category IV $6,544 per event day

Parking Meter Space Fee Fees vary based on the requested parking location
City Staff/Services Varies
Upon review of the fee waiver grants issued since April 2021 (Attachment 2) and with consideration of the fees waived in LTAs in 2024 (Attachment 3), staff recommends Council designate a maximum amount of $5,000 in fee waiver grants for special events held in 2025. If approved, this would be a reduction in fee waiver grant funding available
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 4
for 2025 in comparison to the $10,000 in fee waiver grants designated for the 2024 calendar year. Corresponding to the recommended decrease in the special events category of fee waivers would be an increase in fee waivers through LTAs, which historically have been the largest portion of the City’s fee waivers.
Organizations approved for an LTA may no longer apply for a fee waiver grant through the Special Events Policy, but are considered for event fee waivers through their LTA. The recommended maximum amount of $5,000 in fee waiver grants for 2025 would provide enough grant funding to accommodate applications for returning events awarded fee waiver grants in recent years, who are not currently under an LTA. It would also provide a balance to accommodate new requests from returning events that have not applied in previous years. For an organization to be eligible to apply for a fee waiver grant, its event must be a returning event to the City.
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:
Parks and Open Space Element
Goal 3. Community parks and facilities encourage social activity and interaction.
Policy:
3.1 Community-friendly events. Encourage, permit and support community group, nonprofit, or business organized events on City property that support physical activity, beach culture, and family-friendly social interactions.
Goal 8. Special events at the beach are balanced to support community recreation and economic development without restricting costal access or impacting the community.
Policies:
8.2 Off-peak season events. Incentivize event producers to host special events during off-peak seasons through reduced fees or accommodating location/reserved area preferences.
8.6 Special event impact fees. Require special event applicants pay a fair share of costs associated with impacts on City services and facilities required to support special events.
Fiscal Impact:
The maximum fiscal impact associated with the recommended action is $5,000. The actual final fiscal impact is unknown since final amount of grant applications cannot be projected.
