Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) L. Other Postemployment Benefits (“OPEB”) (Continued)
The following timeframes are used for OPEB reporting:
OPEB
Valuation Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Date June 30, 2024
Measurement Period July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023
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.
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. 50

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) N. Fund Balances (Continued)
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 20% 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.
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.

For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Q. Leases Receivable
Lessor: The City is a lessor for noncancellable leases of a portion of real property, as well as, building and roof space. The City recognizes a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources in the government-wide and governmental fund financial statements.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease receivable at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of the lease payments received. The deferred inflow of resources is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflow of resources is recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term.
Key elements and judgement include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease receipts. The City uses it estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases. The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. Lease receipts included In the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
R. Leases Payable and Subscription Agreements Payable
Lessee: The City is a lessee for noncancellable leases of software subscriptions. The City recognizes a lease or subscription agreement liability and an intangible right-to-use lease or subscription agreement asset (lease asset) in the government-wide financial statements. The City recognizes lease liabilities with an initial, individual value of $50,000 or more.
At the commencement of a lease or subscription agreement, the City initially measures the lease liability at the present value of payments expected to be made during the lease or subscription agreement term. Subsequently, the liability is reduced by the principal portion of payments made. The lease or subscription agreement asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the liability, adjusted for payments made at or before the commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its useful life.
Key estimates and judgments related to leases include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease payments to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) payments. The City uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided, the City generally uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases. The term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. Lease payments included in the measurement of the liability are composed of fixed payments and purchase option price that the City is reasonably certain to exercise.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
Lease or subscription agreement assets are reported with other capital assets and lease or subscription agreement liabilities are reported with long-term debt on the Statement of Net Position. 52 Page 163 of 702

Note 2 – Cash and Investments (Continued)
The fair value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City’s 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.
B. Investments
Under the provisions of the City’s investment policy, the City’s investments are limited to those authorized by the California Government Code, except as follows:
There is no maximum amount or maximum maturity period of the City’s idle funds that may be invested with the Local Agency Investment Fund (“LAIF”) or the Los Angeles County Pooled Investment Fund (“LACPIF”) Negotiable Certificates of Deposit shall not exceed 30 percent of the City’s surplus money and mature in 5 years or less.

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, 2024, the City had $10,875,646 invested in LAIF, which had invested 19.12% 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).

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.

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, 2023, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense(credit) for the plan totaled $9,030,419.

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, 2022 valuation was rolled forward to determine June 30, 2022 total pension liability based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Normal
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 6.90%
Inflation 2.50%
Salary Increases Varies by Entry Age and Service
Investment rate of return 7.15% 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 2.50% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies, 2.50% thereafter All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2017 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 6.90 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 6.90 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 6.90 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. 66

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, 2021). 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, 2021). 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, 2021 less the sum of all additional side fund (or unfunded liability) contributions made by all employers during the measurement period (2020-2021).
(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, 2024 0.38841% 0.58744%
June 30, 2023 0.38672% 0.60049%

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 2022-2023 measurement period is 3.8 years, which was obtained by dividing the total service years of 630,177 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of the active employees) by 166,163 (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 $1,059 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. 72

Net OPEB Liability
The City’s net OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2023, and the total OPEB liability used to calculate the net OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2023.
Actuarial Assumptions
The total OPEB liability, measured as of June 30, 2023, was determined using the following actuarial assumptions:
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Normal
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 5.50% Pre-funded in PARS Moderate Strategy Inflation 2.50% 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, 2023 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023. 73

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 50.00% 4.560%
Fixed Income 45.00% 0.780%
Cash 5.00% (0.500)%
100.00%
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 5.50 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, 2023:

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies
A. Commitments
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 June 30, 2024 was $376,867.
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. 77 Page 188 of 702

Budgetary Control and Accounting Policy
Budgets are annually adopted for all governmental fund types (with the exception of the Tyco Tideland, Myrtle District Administrative Expense, and Greenwich Underground Special Revenue Funds) and all 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. 84 Page 195 of 702

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. 160

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, 2024, 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 28, 2025.
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.

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.

Staff Report No. 25-AS-032
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council SIDE LETTER TO THE MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES’ MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING
(Human Resources Manager Tiffany Nguyen)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approve the Resolution and Side Letter to the Management Employees’ Memorandum of Understanding (Attachment 1).
Executive Summary:
The City of Hermosa Beach periodically needs to amend a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to ensure the document continues to meet the needs of the City and its employees. In this case, the City was notified by CalPERS that additional clarification is required for Article 16 (Uniform Allowance) in the current Management Employees’ MOU for the purpose of calculating employee wages that are reported to CalPERS. The City met and conferred with the Management Employees on this addition and reached agreement.
Background:
The Meyers-Milias Brown Act (MMBA) mandates that local public agencies negotiate with their respective bargaining units on matters concerning wages, hours, and working conditions. The Current MOU for the affected Bargaining Unit is effective from July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2025.
The MMBA allows agencies and the recognized employee associations to make mutuallyagreed upon adjustments to the MOU through side letters. These side letters address emerging issues without altering the core provisions of the existing MOU, provided the MOU does not include a "zipper clause."1
Through labor negotiations, the City strives to maintain competitive wages, hours, and working conditions in a high-cost geographic labor market ensuring the ability to retain and attract a high-quality workforce that delivers a wide range of services to the community. During the term of an MOU, the City may periodically implement
1 The Public Employment Relations Board defines a zipper clause as a clause in a collective bargaining agreement that permits both parties to refuse to bargain over changes to matters covered by the clause.

organizational changes, add or remove classifications, or modify MOU provisions to address the evolving needs of Hermosa Beach.
Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
October 25, 2022 City Council approved the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Hermosa Beach and Management
Employees for the 2022–2025 fiscal years.
September 10, 2024 City Council approved an amendment to the Management Employees’ MOU, reflecting changes to certain
classifications represented by the Management Employee
Group.
Discussion:
The current Article 16—Uniform Allowance of the Management Employee Group MOU reads as follows:
The Police Chief and Fire Chief shall be compensated the same uniform allowance as the next subordinate rank in their respective Department.
The tentative Side Letter approving modifications to Article 16—Uniform Allowance to read as follows:
Effective July 1, 2022, the uniform allowance for the Police Chief shall be $1,000 per year, payable through the regular payroll schedule. Uniform allowance shall be reported to CalPERS periodically, when earned, on a per day basis, in accordance with the Public Employee’s Retirement Law (PERL) and applicable regulations.
These items are not reportable for “new members” under the Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA), as defined by Government Code Section 7522.04(f).
Environmental Review:
This side letter to amend the Management MOU is not a “project” subject CEQA” because it has no potential to result in either a direct, or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) In the alternative, the side letter falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in State CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), which exempts activity from CEQA 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.”

Staff Report No. 25-CMO-026
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN
THE BEACH CITIES WATERSHED MANAGEMENT GROUP FOR IMPLEMENTATION
OF THE COORDINATED INTEGRATED MONITORING PROGRAM (CIMP) (Environmental Programs Manager Douglas Krauss)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve an amendment to a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) regarding the Administration and Cost Sharing for Coordination and Implementation of the Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP) for the Beach Cities Watershed Management Group (WMG) (Attachment 1) to extend the term of the agreement through December 31, 2026, with the option to further extend the term in increments of one calendar year at a time, up to two additional years; and
2. Authorize the Mayor to execute and the City Clerk to attest to the proposed amendment, subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
Since 2016, the WMG has collaboratively implemented the CIMP with Manhattan Beach serving as lead. The CIMP utilizes a professional firm to perform the sampling and testing of water quality and a separate firm to administer the program and various WMG reporting and programs. The current agreement is set to expire on December 28, 2025 and WMG agencies discussed an extension of the MOU to ensure monitoring services continue and so that the WMG can respond to the Regional Water Quality Control Board’s (Regional Board) new monitoring requirements.
Background:
The cities of Hermosa Beach, Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach and the Los Angeles County Flood Control District formed the WMG to develop a Watershed Management Program (WMP) to comply with the Regional Board’s 2012 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System Permit (MS4 Permit). The Beach Cities WMG entered into an MOU to cost share the development of the WMP and CIMP in 2013.
The MS4 Permit requirements include a monitoring and reporting program applicable to City of Hermosa Beach and the other parties to the CIMP MOU. The monitoring program
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 4
requirements described in the MS4 Permit provide flexibility for Permittees to coordinate monitoring efforts on a watershed or subwatershed basis to increase cost-efficiency and effectiveness and to align the CIMP with the WMP.
Upon approval of the WMP and CIMP by the Regional Board in 2016, the Beach Cities Group executed an MOU for the joint implementation of the CIMP in order to carry out the monitoring and reporting program requirements of the Permit (Attachment 2). The CIMP MOU also included regular administration of the WMP and coordination of the member agencies for meetings and regular communications.
The proposed amendment to the existing CIMP MOU would ensure implementation and WMP administration for the WMG. At its February 9, 2016 meeting, City Council approved the an MOU to implement a CIMP with the Beach Cities WMG (Attachment 2). At its December 8, 2020 meeting, Council approved execution of amendment one (Attachment 3) extending the term through December 28, 2025. A separate MOU for a comprehensive update of the WMP was approved by Council at its October 27, 2020 meeting (Attachment 4).
Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
November 26, 2013 City Council approved an MOU to develop a WMP with the Beach Cities WMG
February 9, 2016 City Council approved an MOU to implement a CIMP with the Beach Cities WMG
December 8, 2020 City Council approved an MOU to amend and extend the MOU for monitoring services related to the CIMP
October 27, 2020 City Council approved an MOU for WMP implementation with the Beach Cities WMG
Discussion:
The CIMP Implementation MOU provides for the hiring of a:
• CIMP Implementation Consultant to accomplish the CIMP; and • CIMP Coordination Consultant to assist the WMG in watershed planning and coordination.
The CIMP MOU further provides that the parties to the MOU contribute funds to the City of Manhattan Beach, which acts on behalf of the Beach Cities WMG (or Parties) to contract with the respective CIMP Coordination consultant and CIMP Implementation consultant. The City of Manhattan Beach contracts for these services with McGowan Consulting (Coordination) and Geosyntec (Implementation). Each firm served in these
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 4
capacities for the Beach Cities WMG since 2016. Their familiarity with the WMG’s WMP and CIMP makes them ideal consultants to continue performing these professional services and the City of Manhattan Beach staff secured approval from its City Council to proceed with the MOU amendment.
The City’s cost for the additional year is estimated at $37,201. The cost for the previous year was $24,791. The cost increase is due to a number of new monitoring requirements which were recently implemented including a requirement for higher resolution testing of storm water samples. The increase also reflects the WMG’s supplementary efforts to gain approval from the Regional Board for its updated CIMP, a compliance time extension order completing, and an adaptive management process for waste discharge monitoring.
These additional costs are split proportionally between the various member agencies, as shown in the draft amendment. The City of Manhattan Beach’s fee for administering the contracts would be 10 percent.
Staff recommends City Council approve the amendment to allow for an extension of the agreement. If approved, the extension would allow the WMG to continue required monitoring activities and other efforts to meet Regional Board requirements.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental Quality Act under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, as it can be seen with certainty that it will have no impact on the environment. Thus, this matter is exempt under CEQA.
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendations have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policy is listed below:
Infrastructure Element
Goal 5. The stormwater management system is safe, sanitary, and environmentally and fiscally sustainable.
Policy:
5.7 Stormwater permits. Strictly implement, enforce, and monitor MS4 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) Permit requirements through stormwater ordinances.
Fiscal Impact:
The City’s cost share for the 2026 MOU extension is estimated to be $37,201. The final amount may change depending on actual consultant labor costs. Sufficient Storm Drain funds would be budgeted for the cost share.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 4
Since the 2026 MOU extension would start in Fiscal Year 2025–26, the MOU would be budgeted as part of the Fiscal Year 2025–26 budget.

Proposed Scope and Budget for Extended Implementation
2020-2025
This proposal was prepared for the City of Manhattan Beach by Geosyntec Consultants (Geosyntec) in support of the Beach Cities Watershed Management Group Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP).
The focus of this letter proposal is to present a scope of work and budget for Geosyntec to conduct CIMP Implementation for the following Reporting Years:
Year 5 (July I 2020 - June 30 2021)
Year 6 (July 1 2021 - June 30 2022)
Year 7 (July 1 2022 - June 30 2023)Year 8 (July 1 2023 - June 30 2024) Year 9 (July 1 2024 - June 30 2025)
••
It is understood that Year 8 and Year 9 are optional at this time, to be conducted only following approval by the City of Manhattan Beach.
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1: Project Management and Permitting
As under the existing CIMP Implementation contract, the Geosyntec Team will provide project management services so that work deliverables are provided on or ahead of schedule and within budget. Subtasks will include the following:
Monthly Meetings: The Geosyntec Team will prepare for and attend monthly meetings of the Beach Cities WMG. For monthly meetings, Geosyntec will provide presentations and/or other relevant material, as requested. For cost saving Proposal for CIMP Implementation - 2020-2025

purposes, some meetings will be attended via telephone call, unless otherwiserequested.
Other Meetings: The Geosyntec Team will attend, participate in, and/or support the Beach Cities WMG in meetings with other watershed management program groups, Regional Board staff. City Councils, County staff, stakeholders, and/orother consultants as necessary to deliver the Project.
Permitting and Traffic Control: The Geosyntec Team will obtain the necessarypermits for access to the various sampling locations. Based on the CIMP, it is anticipated that one encroachment/access Permit from the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) will be required for monitoring at various outfalls. As with previous years, permitting and access requirements are expected to be minimal. Geosyntec will coordinate with respective cities to confirm that appropriate protocol is adhered to when sampling at locations within that city.
Health and Safety Planning: The Site Health and Safety Plan (SHSP), which is already in place and being implemented under current CIMP monitoring efforts, will continue to be implemented under this proposed scope as a "living" document, to be updated as often as is necessary to provide the most helpful and accurate information for field personnel. The Geosyntec Project Manager, who is also the Geosyntec Los Angeles Health and Safety Coordinator, will confinn that field personnel communicate any and health and safety related issues directly to him so that the SHSP can be amended promptly.
Additional Project Management: The Geosyntec Team will perfonn project management duties, including regular communication with the City on the state of the scope, schedule, and budget; coordination of the Project Team, WM.G, andWatershed Coordination Consultant; and organization of Team coordination calls.
For cost control purposes, the Geosyntec project manager will track earned value relative to budget spent on a weekly basis throughout the Project duration to confirm that the Project stays on schedule and budget and that deviations are identified, communicated, and mitigated early.
Task 1 Deliverables
M:aterial for up to twelve Beach Cities WMG meetings per year, as requested.Material for up to two additional meetings per year, as requested.
An updated HASP, as requested.

TASK 2: REVISED CIMP PER NEW MS4 PERMIT
With the anticipated release of a new MS4 Permit in Fall 2020, CIMP modifications will be necessary to incoq3orate changes set forth in the new Permit. It is assumed that CIMP revisions will begin in Year 1 (2020-2021), the revised CIMP will be finalized andsubmitted to the Regional Board in Year 2 (2021-2022), and the revised CIMP will begin to be implemented in Year 3 (2022-2023).
CIMP revisions may include the following:
Removing/adding pollutants required to be monitored;
Modifying analysis methods to meet new reporting limits (RLs); Updating sample figures;
Altering monitoring frequencies; and
Revising reporting requirements.
Costs for revising the CDVIP are only present for Years 5 (2020-2021) and 6 (2021-2022), since it is assumed the CIMP will be finalized prior to the end of Year 6. As a result of the CIMP revisions, the implementation approach for Tasks 3-6 (herein) will be altered starting in Year 7 and continuing through Year 9. Details of these changes are set forth in the task descriptions below.
Task 2 Deliverables
• Draft and Draft Final CIMP, revised based on Beach Cities WMG comments.
One Final CLMP, revised based on Regional Board comments.
TASK 3: RECEF^ING WATER MONITORESTG
Geosyntec will continue to conduct Receiving Water Monitoring per the approved Beach Cities CIMP. For Year 5 (2020-2021) and Year 6 (2021-2022), this means sampling in accordance with the currently established means and methods in the CIMP, including:
Near-shore receiving water monitoring at sites RW-BCEG-01 and RW-BCEG02; and Santa Monica Bay Bacteria TMDL Shoreline Monitoring. This will include weekly monitoring for fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) consistent with the SIVBBBTMDL, conducted at seven (7) coordinated shoreline monitoring locations.
Sampling will continue to be conducted on Monday mornings. Additional accelerated monitoring will be conducted on subsequent days when trigged in Proposal for CrMP Implementation - 2020-2025
Beach Cities CIM? [niplementation

consultants
response to exceedance of the single-sample bacteria objectives, as described in the SMBBB TMDL Coordinated Shoreline Monitoring Plan (CSMP). Bacterial parameters analyzed will include Total Coliform, Fecal Coliform, andEnterococcus.
Beginning in Year 7 (2022-2023), the following changes are anticipated to impactreceiving water monitoring:
Reporting Levels (RLs) for all sampled parameters will be significantly reduced, resulting in an increased laboratory fee;
The "core monitoring constituents" required to be sampled will be required for the first three events of the year, rather than just the first. This will result in a significantly higher laboratory fee; and
Toxicity sampling will require the use of three different test species for the first year. Following this, the most sensitive species can be used. This too will result in a higher laboratory fee.
Although there is the possibility that the number of SMBBB monitoring locations is reduced based on the proposed changes to the SMBBB TMDL, this change has not been accounted for at this time.
Task 3 Deliverables
No Task 3 deliverables, as reporting is handled under Task 6.
TASK 4: STORMWATER OUTFALL MONITORING
Geosyntec will continue to conduct Stormwater Outfall Monitoring per the approved Beach Cities CIM1P. As with receiving water monitoring, Year 5 (2020-2021) and Year 6(2021-2022) will be sampled in accordance with the currently established means and methods in the CDVIP. This will include:
Sampling at outfalls OF-BCEG-1, OF-BCEG-2, OF-BCEG-6, and OF-BCEG-7 in Year 5; and
Sampling at outfalls OF-BCEG-4a, OF-BCEG-5, and OF-BCEG-7 in Year 6.
Beginning in Year 7 (2022-2023), the following changes are anticipated to impact outfall monitoring:Proposal for CIMP Implementation - 2020-2025
Beach Cities CtMP Implementation
March 10,2020
Geosyntect>
consultants
Reporting Levels (RLs) for all sampled parameters will be significantly reduced, resulting in an increased laboratory fee; and
The increase to required receiving water sampling constituents will likely result in a larger number of required outfall sampling constituents. This will result in a significantly higher laboratory fee;
Task 4 Deliverables
No Task 4 deliverables, as reporting is handled under Task 6.
TASK 5: NON-STORMWATER OUTFALL MONITORING
Non-stormwater outfall monitoring will continue to be implemented per the Beach Cities CIMP during Year 5 and Year 6. This sampling will include two sample events per year at the two outfalls currently monitored.
Beginning in Year 7, the following changes are anticipated to be made to the NonStormwater Outfall Monitoring Program:
A re-screening of all Beach City-Owned outfalls will be conducted by the Geosyntec Team, in order to evaluate where significant non-stormwater discharges are occurring. This screening is assumed to be necessary in theDominguez Channel Watershed only, since all known major outfalls in the SMB Watershed are diverted or otherwise do not discharge.
Sampling will increase to four times per year, in accordance with the new Permit.
As with stormwater outfall sampling, laboratory analyses coupled with the number of constituents required to be sampled are expected to increase.
Task 5 Deliverables
A technical memorandum summarizing screening results.
Post-event sampling memoranda (two per year) summarizing the results of the non-stormwater monitoring.
Annual updates of the MS4 Outfall GIS database.
TASK 6: DATA ASSESSMENT AND REPORTING
Geosyntec will continue with all necessary data assessment and reporting to help theBeach Cities comply with the MS4 Permit and their CIMP. Specific items covered underthis task include:

Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
RE: PROPOSAL FOR BEACH CITIES WMG COORDINATION SERVICESDear Ms. Katsouleas and Mr. Igoe:
McGowan Consulting, LLC, is pleased to provide this proposal to the City of Manhattan Beach (City)to coordinate and implement watershed activities for the Beach Cities Watershed Management Group (WMG).
McGowan Consulting provides environmental consulting services focused on stormwater quality and watershed protection to municipalities in the south Santa Monica Bay. Our two senior staffmembers have more than 25 years of combined experience in municipal stormwater consulting. We are adept at tracking and coordinating joint activities and in synthesizing complex technical and regulatory issues into cogent analysis on which clients can rely for decision-making and policy setting. McGowan Consulting has been providing these watershed coordination services to theBeach Cities WMG for the past five years and we have an in-depth understanding of the particular needs and technical challenges faced by this group and the watershed area it manages.
The Scope and Cost of Services in this proposal have been developed to provide support to the BeachCities WMG based on the proposed tasks and needed services discussed with and previously approved by the representatives of the Beach Cities WMG. Given that the schedule for adopting the 5th term MS4 Permit has been delayed with a revised target of Fall 2020, the representativesunderstand that the proposed scope of services and budgets for FY2122 and FY2223 are estimated based on our best professional judgement. CIMP Coordination Services are identified andauthorized as Task 7 in the Beach Cities CIMP Memorandum of Understanding (CIMP MOD), and accordingly this Scope of Services is organized into Tasks 7.1 through 7.9.
Excluded from this Scope of Services is effort to carry out the Beach Cities GIMP Implementationscope of work, i.e.. Tasks 1 through 6 of the Beach Cities CIMP MOD, including preparation of the Integrated Monitoring Compliance Report, which is contracted separately by the City with the CIMPImplementation Consultant on behalf of the Beach Cities WMG.
Scope of Services
This Scope of Services provides for McGowan Consulting to serve as the Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP) Coordination Consultant for the Beach Cities WMG for fiscal years 2020- 21(FY2021), 2021-22 (FY2122), and 2022-23 (FY2223). The scope and assumptions for Tasks 7.1 through 7.9 are outlined below.
Task 7.1 Meeting Planning, Agendas and Minutes
Plan, revise and distribute the Beach Cities WMG agendas and minutes for monthly meetings.
Arrange for guest speakers as needed. A level of effort of four (4) hours per month is assumed based on previous experience.
Task 7.2 Meeting Preparation, Attendance, Coordination
Prepare materials for information, discussion and decision-making at the Beach Cities WMG meetings. Attend and coordinate the meetings, take notes during the meeting for documentationin the minutes, and follow up on action items from each meeting. A level of effort of eight (8) hoursper month is assumed based on one staff person attending in-person and running the meeting with a second staff person calling in and taking notes during the meeting.
Task 7.3 WMG Coordination Activities
Project management, planning and scheduling of group activities. As directed by the Beach Cities WMG, provide support to the group in carrying out required activities, including maintaining an upto-date schedule of WMG implementation activities, milestones and deadlines, and other as-needed assistance. In FY2223 additional effort is provided to amend the CIMP MOD for approval by the Beach Cities WMG governing boards prior to its expiration.
Task 7.4 Support for Adaptive Management
Since a second Adaptive Management Report including re-run of the RAAand revision of the EWMPis required for submittal by June 2021, effort in this task for FY2021 is to finalize an MOU forEWMP/RAA Update, to review and comment on deliverables provided by the EWMP Consultant, and to provide supporting information as-needed. Also in FY2021, a Time Schedule Order (TSO) request is anticipated to be needed to obtain a time extension prior to the final wet weather SantaMonica Bay Beaches Bacteria TMDL deadline of July 15, 2021. The TSO request will be prepared byMcGowan Consulting in coordination with the Beach Cities WMG for submittal to the Regional Board by April 15, 2021 (90 days prior to the final TMDL deadline). Effort during FY2122 will include support for responding to comments from Regional Board staff on the revised EWMP/RAA, and possible presentations to the Regional Board. This effort may also include further negotiations with RegionalBoard staff on the TSO. Increased allocation in FY22-23 is provided to account for new EWMP Implementation support following EWMP approval and to prepare notifications as-needed to theRegional Board for minor EWMP revisions to reflect progress on the Beach Cities WMG implementation actions.
Task 7.5 CIMP Review & Support

memos. During FY2021 this will also include review and comment on the revised CIMP as prepared by CIMP Implementation Consultant to conform to the requirements in the next Regional Permit. InFY2122 this may also include assistance in responding to Regional Board comments on the revised CIMP.
Task 7.6 Develop & Manage Joint Outreach
Development of joint public outreach materials utilizing contract services for graphic layout and illustration. Management of ongoing website content and hosting utilizing contracted services fromthe Environmental Services Center staff of the South Bay COG.

In FY2122, this effort is anticipated to include the development of shortnarrative pieces on rainwater harvesting to be distributed via existing digital networks. In FY2122and FY2223, the effort is anticipated to include aligning outreach efforts to address new MS4 Permit objectives such as including the development of metrics to track Outreach Program effectiveness.

Other graphic design/layout assistance may be needed for short narrative pieces and/or anew outreach piece following adoption of the Regional MS4 Permit.

Note that the allocation of effort in this task is not sufficient to prepare a full grant proposal.
Task 7.9 Watershed Annual Report
Preparation of the Beach Cities WMG Watershed Annual Report. This subtask also includes review and coment on the Integrated Monitoring Compliance Report (IMCR) prepared by the CIMPImplementation Consultant for incorporation into the Watershed Annual Report.

Cost of Services
McGowan Consulting will conduct the work effort as outlined in the above Scope of Services during the period from July 2020 through June 2023 for an amount not to exceed $295,880 as detailed in the attached Budget Table and Rate Schedule.

An allocation for other direct costs such as for subcontracted graphic design, website updates andhosting services is included as a separate line item in the Budget Table.
McGowan Consulting will adhere to the Scope of Services and inform City staff and Beach Cities WMG representatives of changing requirements and emerging issues as part of regularcommunication. In order to provide a measure of flexibility to best meet the needs of the BeachCities WMG, it is understood that reallocation of level-of-effort and cost between tasks and subtasks and if necessary between fiscal years may occur so long as the total contract amount is notexceeded.It is the nature of regulatory and monitoring-driven programs to be subject to uncertainty such as unforseen technical issues, new regulatory requirements, or regulatory enforcement action.
If it becomes necessary to provide additional consulting services to meet the needs of the Beach Cities WMG and at City of Manhattan Beach staff's direction, McGowan Consulting will submit an authorization request for a change to the Scope and Cost of Services.

Staff Report No. 25-CDD-055
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL MAP NO. 83937 FOR AN ADDITION TO AN EXISTING CONDOMINIUM LOCATED AT 705 2ND STREET CEQA: Determine that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(Associate Planner Jake Whitney)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Determine that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act;
2. Adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) approving Final Parcel Map No. 83937 (Attachment 2), which is consistent with the approved Vesting Tentative Parcel Map; and
3. Authorize the City Clerk to endorse the certificate for said map.
Executive Summary:
At its February 21, 2023 meeting, the Planning Commission approved conditional use permit (CUP) 23-01, Precise Development Plan (PDP) 23-01, and Vesting Tentative Parcel Map (VTPM) No. 83937 for the construction of a new two-unit detached condominium project. An applicant has two years from the date of a tentative map approval to submit for final map approval. The property owner, DD Built LLC, applied for final map approval on February 12, 2025. Upon review of Final Map No. 83937 (Attachment 2), staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution approving said final map.
Background:
At its February 21, 2023 meeting, the Planning Commission approved CUP 23-01, PDP 23-01, and VTPM No. 83937 for the construction of a new two-unit detached condominium project. The project is currently under construction.
Past Board, Commission, and Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
February 21, 2023 Planning Commission approved a CUP 23-01, PDP 23-01, and VTPM No. 83937
Discussion:
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
Once a Vesting Tentative Parcel Map is approved by the Planning Commission, copies of the tentatively approved map must be submitted to the Los Angeles County Engineer, who is contracted by the City, to review the map for its technical correctness, pursuant to Section 66442(a)(4) of the State Subdivision Map Act. The Parcel Map was reviewed and approved by the Los Angeles County Engineer, and a letter was issued January 30, 2025 (Attachment 3).
Final maps must be submitted to the City Council and must be approved by the City Council, “...if it conforms to all the requirements of [Subdivision Map Act] and any local subdivision ordinance applicable at the time of approval or conditional approval of the tentative map and any rulings made thereunder....” pursuant to Section 66458(a) of the State Subdivision Map Act.
Staff reviewed the Final Parcel Map and found it substantially consistent with the Vesting Tentative Parcel Map approved by the Planning Commission and in conformance with the State Subdivision Map Act.
General Plan Consistency:
Approval of the final map is the final procedural step in the process to build and occupy this new development. It allows for the division of ownership of the units for this project that has already been evaluated for its consistency with PLAN Hermosa by the Planning Commission. Policies Relevant to this project and its final ownership and occupancy are listed below.
Land Use Element
Goal 1: Create a sustainable urban form and land use patterns that support a robust economy and high quality of life for residents.
Policy 1.6 Scale and context. Consider the compatibility of new development within its urban context to avoid abrupt changes in scale and massing.
Goal 2: Neighborhoods provide for diverse needs of residents of all ages and abilities, and are organized to support healthy and active lifestyles. Policy 2.3 Balanced neighborhoods. Promote a diverse range of housing unit types and sizes, within allowed density.
Goal 5. Quality and authenticity in architecture and site design in all construction and renovation of buildings.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3
Policy 5.6 Eclectic and diverse architecture. Seek to maintain and enhance neighborhood character through eclectic and diverse architectural styles.
Environmental Determination:
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as defined in Section 15303(b), Class 3 Exemption, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, because the proposal pertains to final map approval for the construction of limited numbers (two) of new, small structures. More specifically, the project is comprised of two new condominium units in an urbanized area, totaling no more than six dwelling units. Moreover, none of the exceptions to the Categorical Exemption apply, nor would the project result in a significant cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place over time or have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances or damage a scenic highway or scenic resources within a state scenic highway.
Fiscal Impact:
There are no fiscal impacts associated with the recommended actions.
