CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH | ON-CALL DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW AND SUPPORT SERVICES 3-3

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING & APPROACH TO SCOPE OF WORK
Approach to Work Program
Building Plan Check Approach
TRB will work seamlessly performing plan review services for residential, multi-family residential, commercial, and industrial projects encompassing building code, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, fire protection, Title-24 energy, accessibility, and green building standards; as well as grading, drainage, floodplain, wildland urban interface fire severity zone, stormwater, grading, hazardous materials, and State housing law Title-25 factorybuilt structure considerations, as applicable. Our reviews consider all relevant project documentation including plans, specifications, calculations, and other related correspondence to verify conformance to adopted local codes, ordinances, regulations, and standards, including the 2022 editions of the following California Building Standards Codes:
• California Building Code
• California Residential Code
• California Electrical Code
• California Plumbing Code
• California Mechanical Code
• California Fire Code
• Title 24 Energy Standards
• California Green Building Standards Code
Alternate Material and Methods
TRB recognizes that there are alternate materials and methods of construction that can be used to satisfy and comply with the provisions of the code. Our experience with the use of alternate materials, alternate design and methods of construction enhances our ability to solve specific issues that arise in design and construction.

Electronic Plan Review
To confirm, TRB is prepared to review electronic media to process submittals electronically. The staff of TRB are leaders in the field of digital plan review and workflow management and our team has extensive experience working with several electronic plan review systems including Bluebeam, DigEplan, and Projectdox.

Online Plan Check Status and Records
To facilitate access to plan review findings and status information, TRB is prepared to initiate its Project Website for use on this assignment if desired by the City. With our project website, all correspondence issued by our team can be posted and maintained for access by City and designated project stakeholder staff. Our postings can include plan review findings (i.e. approval/comment letters), plan review submittal status information, meeting notes, etc.; all of which may be updated on a daily basis. In addition, if so desired by the City, we can also accommodate incoming electronic document postings (i.e. electronic plans, calculations, RFI’s, etc.).

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING & APPROACH TO SCOPE OF WORK
Plan Review Process
Please note that our plan review process will be tailored to meet the City’s specific needs. The following process represents an example plan review workflow which may be applied if desired by the City.

Step 1 - Preliminary Discussions:

Prior to beginning our initial plan review project, our Project Manager proposes to conduct a meeting or conference call with the City to discuss local code policies, documentation procedures, plan processing protocols, plan review checklist items, and scheduling.

Step 2 – Initial Review:

Once we receive a complete set of plan documents, we will perform our plan review in the agreed-upon timeframe, checking for compliance to all applicable code standards.

To confirm, plan review turnaround timeframes will align with standard City-established timeframes. In general, project reviews are completed in 5 to 10 working days or less for initial reviews, and 5 working days or less for subsequent review cycles. Specific turnaround times are provided in the “Turnaround Timetable” included on the following page.

All corrections are identified based on compliance with specified codes and regulations and worded so the designer will know what needs attention and how to respond to the issue stated. Generally, corrections are identified in two ways:
• Notes can be made on plans as appropriate and authorized to assist in locating the issue on the plans; • A correction sheet is generated detailing what items need to be addressed before plans can be approved.

Step 3 – Transmittal of Plans and Comment Lists for Plan Review:

At the heart of our approach in delivering our services to you, is the recognition that there must be a coordinated effort to track and coordinate all submittals and requests received. To help assure that submittals are properly coordinated and tracked, TRB has established an internal plan review
coordination process to ensure that each plan received for review is properly handled, processed, and returned on time.

Our plan tracking procedures are computerized to track each submittal through the review process and maintain accurate and comprehensive records for each submittal. Upon
completion of our review, any comments generated are
consolidated into a correction letter in the City’s preferred format (e.g. Bluebeam, punch list, or other format) which is remitted to the City for its reference.

Step 4 – Rechecks:

Upon receipt of the resubmittal package from the applicant, once we have verified that the resubmittal package is complete, we perform a recheck in the agreed-upon timeframe. This process is repeated until the project plan documents are ready to be recommended for approval.

Step 5 – Plan Approval:

When all review comments are satisfied, we will forward two sets of all relevant correspondence bearing our company’s “Reviewed for Code Compliance” stamp (including plans, calculations, and specifications), along with a transmittal letter indicating our recommendation for project approval, and the project file to the City for processing.

Shipping and Delivery of Plans
Please note that the pickup, shipment and delivery of plan documents and other relevant correspondence to the City are provided at no additional cost.

By executing this Agreement, CONSULTANT represents that CONSULTANT has (a) thoroughly investigated and considered the scope of services to be performed; (b) carefully considered how the services should be performed; and (c) understands the facilities, difficulties, and restrictions attending performance of the services under this Agreement.

Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its own terms services similar to those terminated.

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. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.

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.

Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

AUDIT OF RECORDS. CONSULTANT agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement. CONSULTANT agrees to provide CITY, or designee, with any relevant information requested and will permit CITY, or designee, access to its premises, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours for the purpose of interviewing employees and inspecting and copying such books, records, accounts, and other material that may be relevant to a matter under investigation for the purpose of determining compliance with this Agreement.

CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONSULTANT will promptly implement any corrective measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement. CONSULTANT will be given a reasonable amount of time as determined by the City to implement said 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 claimsmade annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence 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.

City of Hermosa Beach

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 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.

City of Hermosa Beach

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 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.

Willdan’s Code Enforcement Inspectors are Certified and equipped to provide services that are among the most complex and challenging services offered to Government Agencies.

Service Approach
 General code compliance, including nuisance, substandard housing, and dangerous buildings enforcement.
 Inspection services for HUD section 8 programs.

The Willdan Advantage
While we offer a wide range of services, Willdan’s Team understands every Client requires personalized solutions. We offer a variety of customizable services to each Client making us an ideal partner.

Disaster Response & Inspection Services
For over two decades, we have assisted local and regional communities recovering from firestorms, floods, earthquakes, landslides, mudslides, and other disasters. Amid the turmoil, Willdan supports communities with rebuilding their homes and businesses while ensuring the protection of public life-safety.

The Willdan Team is ready to assist by providing efficient means of reviewing and approving building
Permit Applications as well as providing
prompt construction inspections for
affected Property Owners. We
understand that most local and
regional Government Agencies are hard
pressed to maintain normal services
while assisting residents and businesses
impacted by a major disaster. For
example, on April 11, 2023, Willdan
signed a contract with the Town of
Paradise to perform Building and Safety
plan reviews and inspection services for
their on-call Post-Fire Rebuilding Assistance project. Paradise was in the direct line of the 2018 Camp Fire, at the time the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in California’s history.

Fire Services
Willdan’s Fire Service Team specializes in
critical fire life-safety protection serving
Municipalities throughout California for
over 45 years. We will work with the City
to establish a system that works best for
the City. The Team is comprised of both

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 claimsmade annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence 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.

City of Hermosa Beach

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 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.

City of Hermosa Beach

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 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.

Staff Report No. 25-AS-068
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE CITY’S PARKING VIOLATION BAIL

SCHEDULE INCREASING PENALTY AMOUNTS
(Administrative Services Director Brandon Walker)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Adopt Resolution amending the City of Hermosa Beach Parking Violation Bail Schedule increasing penalty amounts; and

2. Add estimated revenue of $450,000 in the General Fund for the anticipated increased parking violation penalty revenue for Fiscal Year 2025-26.

Executive Summary:

California Vehicle Code Section 40203.5 authorizes the City to establish penalties for parking violations. Staff is recommending increasing parking citation amounts in line with neighboring agencies. The City’s existing parking penalties have not been changed since 2010.

Background:

Parking citation penalties were last adjusted in 2009 and 2010, with each year reflecting a $3 increase. However, these increases were not the result of any local policy changes or efforts to raise city revenue. Instead, they were mandated adjustments tied directly to a statewide pass-through requirement, in which the additional funds collected were remitted in full to the State of California to support court-funded projects. As a result, the increases did not generate additional local revenue, but simply reflected the state’s requirement to bolster funding for the judicial system. The last time parking citation rates were increased in a way that generated additional revenue for the City was in 2005— more than 20 years ago. Since then, no locally driven adjustments have been made to citation rates that directly benefit the City’s revenue.

Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
November 23, 2010
City Council adopted a Resolution amending the City’s Parking Violation Bail Schedule to reflect an additional $3.00 State Trial Court Fund Penalty required by SB 857.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
Meeting Date Description
March 24, 2009
City Council adopted a Resolution amending the City’s Parking Violation Bail Schedule to reflect an additional $3.00 State Courthouse Construction and Criminal Justice Facilities Construction Fund Penalty required by SB 1407.

February 22, 2005 City Council adopted a Resolution increasing parking violation penalties by $5.

Analysis:

Parking citations are an important tool for the City to regulate the use of public space and parking. Enforcement encourages turnover, reduces congestion, ensures emergency access, and protects pedestrians. The City issues around 40,000 parking related citations annually.

The City’s parking citation penalties were last updated in 2010 (nearly 15 years ago). The last two increases have been state fund pass through charges where the City has received no additional revenue. The last increase that benefitted the City was approved in 2005.

Under the proposed resolution, penalties for the two most commonly issued parking violations, street sweeping and expired meters, would increase from $38 to $55 and from $48 to $75, respectively. All other penalty amounts are being adjusted to better align amounts and ensure consistent enforcement (Attachment 1).

In determining the market rate of parking citation penalties, staff conducted an informal survey of local cities that issue parking citations and found that the City’s existing fine of $38 for street sweeping and an average of $48 for all citations were low compared to other cities.

CITY Expired Meter Fine
Street
Sweeping
Fine
Santa Monica $63 $73
Los Angeles $63 $73
Newport Beach $76 $70
Beverly Hills $55 $68
Culver City $55 $60
Manhattan Beach $59 $59
Redondo Beach $75 $53
Huntington Beach $58 $46
Hermosa Beach $53 $38

Fiscal Impact:

The proposed parking citation penalty increase is estimated to generate an additional $700,000 to 900,000 annually to the City’s General Fund, which can help support ongoing parking infrastructure and other City wide capital needs.

Staff would add estimated revenue of $450,000 to the current FY 2025-26 budget at 001- 3302 for the anticipated parking citation revenue rate increase.
