Item 12 MC Guerry I am writing to express my disappointment with the Hermosa Beach City Councils vote to support the Hawthorne alignment for the C/K Metro line to Torrance. Except for a couple right-wing activists that speak at every meeting, every comment from actual Hermosa Beach residents was against the Hawthorne option. Like with the disastrous City Manager vote earlier this year, the current council ignores resident comments when it doesnt fit their ideologies and personal ambitions. In particular, the comments comparing this vote to the oil drilling issue years ago were nonsensical and bizarre. I hope the council will stop ignoring the wishes of the public. They only seem to care about public comments when it fits into their agenda.

Item 12 Laura Pena Dear Mayor, Council Members, and Staff - As a business owner, Id like to respectfully request that the Council reconsider adding one additional week to the Complimentary Holiday Parking Program, starting November 28th (Black Friday weekend) through December 3rd.

Before addressing the substance of this item, I want to note a process concern. It was not clear on the Citys agenda that public comments for Item #20a INFORMATIONAL ITEM: Complimentary Holiday Parking Program could not be submitted through eScribe. Residents and businesses had to know to submit feedback under Item #12, Public Comment, which created confusion and likely reduced participation. For future discussions that affect our community, I respectfully ask that informational items include a clear way to provide input directly in the eComment system.

Complimentary Holiday Parking Program Dates
This early start beginning Black Friday weekend is critical for our retail businesses, who depend on that Thanksgiving to Christmas window for a large share of annual sales. The Citys own Economic Development Strategy and Plan Hermosa call for actions that strengthen our retail base, activate downtown, and increase foot traffic this program does all three.

The Citys Market & Economic Development Study (EPS 2021) noted that Hermosas retail vacancy rate remains the highest among the Beach Cities (6.1%), and that the City lags behind neighboring cities in general merchandise sales. Offering free parking earlier in the season helps local retailers compete regionally when shoppers make their first big holiday purchases.

Our Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat (SWOT) Analysis from our Economic Development Committee which included over 70 meetings over two years with our business owners identified lack of foot traffic and competition from neighboring cities as key threats. Aligning our program with Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach, who both start their programs Thanksgiving weekend, keeps our City competitive and supports the retail mix weve worked so hard to attract downtown.

This is a small, strategic step that shows were serious about revitalizing our downtown and supporting the small businesses that define Hermosas character. Our downtown is the heart of City, a place where neighbors meet, families gather, and visitors fall in love with our city. Adding one more For

Please see the attached presentation related to resident (and landlord) parking permits. I hope to be able to present this on the screen (if that is considered appropriate) and, in any event, will have a hard copy of the deck for each of you to review during my comments.

My presentation focuses on the families affected by what I consider to have been an ill-conceived, unnecessary series of actions. These actions impacted hundreds of Hermosa Beach families and, I believe, "solved" a problem which did not actually exist. A tremendous amount of time and staff resources were put into this from 2020-2022, which, I think, would have been better spent solving real problems - for example getting our Housing Element approved in a timely manner and/or getting our Local Coastal Plan approved. - https://pubhermosabeach.

I have attached a revised deck. I recalled decisions on the residential parking program were made in early 2023 but was unable to access those agendas as the link on the City website I normally use for earlier meetings is broken. I figured out a way to get there and the public hearing on this was 2/28/23. I have added to this deck references to that meeting - the same data was presented, and the same 4 permit per address limit was recommended by staff.

Of course, Council decided to impose a 3 permit per address limit, unnecessarily disrupting the lives of almost 600 families. Council also decided to impose the requirement the drivers license and vehicle registration be at the impacted Hermosa Beach address, unnecessarily disrupting the lives of an unknown additional number of families.

Robert Aronoff I spoke and gave comments on this item, specifically Event Permits, at the October 14, 2025 meeting. Please review them. However, I have an additonal point. Most of the guests for whom I get Event Permits are new or infrequent visitors to Hermosa Beach. They come at my invitation.

Instead of being rushed to leave because their meter is running out, they decide to walk to Pier Plaza and check out the businesses. They often return with purchases. In other words, I can use the Event Permit to bring customers to our City who would not otherwise be here. I ply them with food and drink and then send downtown to shop. Why does the City want to end that boost to business? -

Parking has been so frustrating for the past several years! (It was fine for the 20 years before that.) Please dont go back to the old system. It was abused. It was clear that lots of people not living in the neighborhood (full or part-time) had parking permits. Each summer it got increasingly difficult to find a parking place.

With the new system, Ive also found it difficult to find a parking place in summer, but this time due to lack of parking enforcement, which I find inexcusable.

Can you find a solution that meets most residents needs but still has the practical result of making parking available to residents of the neighborhood?

rory barish Annual Resident Permits work fine in West Hollywood and other areas with permits. Never a problem and no complaints. In West Hollywood for example...

Annual permits for residents (max 4 per address). Each permit is assigned to a plate or VIN and is non-transferable without re-registering.

Item 17.a - 25-
AS-080
MC Guerry For the parking permits, I support the following:

Issue One: Option B. Not everyone uses a physical address on their drivers license.

Issue Two: Option C.

Issue Three: Option A. The city needs to focus on residents, not landlords.

Issue Four: Option B. In addition, charge for every permit issued and raise the price of each one.

Issue Five: Option B. This allows for flexibility but ensures the parking permit program is per person.

Two-year pause: Keep the ban as is.

Employee Parking Permit Program: raise the fees to meet demand.

Todd Tullis By spending an additional $16k this year, expenses for recreation management software in next year's budget should be reduced from $120k to ~$30k. The selected platform surely will improve on the ActiveNET user experience; it also shows potential to increase revenue. Torrance being a customer does provide some confidence. This change of systems is not without risk, which we should acknowledge and mitigate where possible.

Rec Technologies is an early stage startup in a fragmented market, as such the risk of this company failing is high (they did just get a new round of funding so they should be good for the next 18-24 months). Assuming they continue to bring on new customers, they will have demands from many cities to make changes to their software, including changes that we may not want.

The proposed project plan includes launch readiness activities only in Month 6 - the last month of the project before go-live. Given there is no For

Dear City Council,
The fact that the City of Torrance went with Rec Management Solution recommended by Director Nicholes is a positive; but who else? Carmel Del Mar, Pismo Beach, Malibu, Newport Beach Laguna Beach? Manhattan Beach, Cities like ours? And yes it's a positive the vendor has just received an additional round of startup funding.

But Conventional Wisdom says you dont go with an early stage startup in a fragmented market unless there are overwhelming reasons to do so.

It's not so much the cost of the software if the company fails or is sold.

It's the lost time staff time customizing the software, modifying and documenting and training on new software and procedures, that add up and are often the biggest impacts.

I appreciate Council (especially Mayor Saemann) renewing interest in this important topic. However, I was disappointed with the staff report, which I believe primarily summarized information regarding programs which are already identified on the City website. The only "data" provided related to the camping ordinance. (And I still don't know if enforcement is complaint based or carried out directly on observation by PD.) I felt the former regime gave a lot of lip service to addressing the needs of our unhoused population, and the security and health concerns raised by residents, without actually doing anything of substance. I certainly have not noticed an improvemeent. Maybe Council was provided data not made available to the public - but I don't think so as I have not seen anything on a closed session agenda. Hopefully the new management team will compile data and use that data to improve the situation. There's an old management axiom: "You can't improve what you can't measure." - https://pubhermosabeach.

Dear City Council
Poorly implemented AI solutions are worse than nothing at all.

I don't expect any response but you might consider pulling the plug on Sunny the Citibot AI Assistant on the Hb website
It seems a useless waste of money in its current form.

For instance the FYE26 budget refers to a Resolution 20-7258 saying:

The City Council approved Resolution 20-7258....

Of course there is no link in the FYE26 budget to this Resolution, so I ask Sunny to show me Resolution 20-7258 but it knows nothing.

See Screen-Shot below:

Tony Higgins - Item 12

Page 22 of 572 ends

When I ask for the date of the last CIP Study Session its the same.

Useless.

Page 23 of 572 ends

Its the same when I ask Sunny for Department Performance Standards.

Page 24 of 572 ends

It's the same when i ask for Patio Encroachment Fees, Parking Fines, the Pavement Condition or even the Sidewalk Condition Index. No links.

The point is if Hb is going to spend the money to on AI Technology they need to invest the time to TRAIN it properly by giving it access to Council & Commission Agendas, Videos, Staff Reports & Attachments, Press Releases, Calendars, etc., so the AI Assistant can provide useful comments & links.

Page 25 of 572 ends

Otherwise all you have is another useless shiny object that frustrates and confuses your constituents and reflects poorly on the city.

Did anyone think this out before bringing this AI Assistant online? Was the purpose of this system ever defined?
Did anyone test it?
Thank you for considering.

Presentation to Hermosa Beach City Council
October 28, 2025
Residential Parking Permit Program
Nancy Schwappach - Item 17.a

Page 27 of 572 ends

Residential Parking Permit data as of 2021 was obtained from the Staff Report for the 1/31/2022 Hermosa Beach
City Council working session on parking (page 1 at left) This presentation:

1. Provides an overview of the inequities created
by the changes in the residential parking permit
program starting in 2022;

2. Exposes “fiction” around residential parking in
the impacted zone and provides the facts;

3. Summarizes the changes made in 2022 and
later; and

4. Requests those changes be reversed or, at the
very least, made more equitable.

Page 28 of 572 ends

These decisions should not be taken lightly – according to 2022 census data, these decisions impact approx.
43% of Hermosa Beach households
• 2022 Census # of total households in Hermosa Beach: 8926 • 1/31/22 Staff Report # of addresses obtaining residential parking permits in 2021: 3815
• Based upon this (imperfect) data, % of Hermosa Beach
households which obtained residential parking permits in ‘21:
43%

Page 29 of 572 ends

Fiction vs Fact 1:

FICTION: FACT:

Having access to
residential parking permits
is a PRIVILEGE for families
living in the impacted zone.

Access to residential parking permits is a RIGHT afforded to families living or owning property in the impacted zone, to allow them, their guests, and their contractors street parking on a basis consistent with that enjoyed by families living outside the impacted zone.

Based on testimony provided by long-time residents, when meters were installed, and one-hour restrictions were imposed, residents and property owners in the impacted zone were not intended to have their lives disrupted. They were
promised parking permits, at a fee limited to recovering the costs of administering the program.

Page 30 of 572 ends

Fiction vs Fact 2:

FICTION: FACT:

Each parking permit denied a family
in the impacted zone results in one
street parking space available for
non-permit holders
Many permit holders use their parking permits only
occasionally, preferring to park in their garage or
driveway.

Page 31 of 572 ends

Fiction vs Fact 3:

FICTION: FACT:

The former means of proving
ownership or residency led to
rampant fraud
The vast majority of permit holders are honest families.

Fraud was the exception not the rule and can be
managed on a case by case basis.

Page 32 of 572 ends

At the 1/31/22 working session on
parking, staff provided data on the
number of permits issued in 2021.

These included the then available
1 landlord guest permit per unit.

No further data was reported on
addresses with “excessive”
permits, and no specific data was
provided as to the # of landlord
guest permits – although it seems
such data would have been readily
available to staff and, I would
think, be of interest to Council.

Page 34 of 572 ends

At the 1/31/22 working session, staff recommended limiting parking permits to 4 per address. Again, this was without providing any data as to the “excessive” permits, or data as to how many of the issued permits constituted landlord guest permits.

This decision impacted 591
households who had more than 3
permits in 2021, disrupting the
lives of families living at 15% of the
addresses in the impacted zone,
and impacting:
• more than 2x as many families
than the 4 permit limit
recommended by staff, and
• almost 4x as many families
whose lives would have been
disrupted had a 5 permit per
address limit been imposed.

Page 36 of 572 ends

In addition to limiting permits to 3 per address, and entirely eliminating landlord guest permits, Council decided to:

The latter restrictions completely disregard the needs our neighbors who:
• Reside part time in Hermosa Beach, maintaining a primary residence elsewhere. Our “part-time” neighbors pay the same taxes as “full-time” Hermosa Beach residents and contribute as much (or more) to our local economy when they are staying in their Hermosa Beach property. • Have legitimate security and/or privacy reasons to maintain a different mailing address. We should respect the security and privacy wants and needs of our neighbors.
• Entirely eliminate the 1 day “event permit” program
• Issue vehicle permits only to vehicles registered at the Hermosa Beach address.
• Impose a new proof of residency requirement that the drivers license for the vehicle registrant show the Hermosa Beach address.
• This

Page 37 of 572 ends

Requests:
• Eliminate the limit on # of parking permits per address. • If not eliminated, increase the limit to 5 permits per address (including the guest permit). This would, as of 2021, have avoided disrupting the lives of at least 96% of the affected families. • Restore the 1 day event permits. Perhaps increase the cost nominally – NOT to the daily meter parking rate, which would defeat the purpose and punish residents in the restricted zone. Perhaps limit to 2-3 events a year. • Restore the landlord guest permit program but limit to 1 permit per property not per unit.
• Restore old “proof of residency” requirements. Any identified fraud was the exception, not the rule. Future fraud can be addressed on a case by case basis, retaining the existing “penalty” of forfeiting permits for 2 years, without punishing the vast majority of your neighbors who are honest and simply want and deserve the same rights and privileges as our neighbors living outside the impacted zone.

CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH PARTNERS WITH SOUTH BAY CITIES COUNCIL OF

GOVERNMENTS ON FUNCTIONAL ZERO HOMELESS INITIATIVE
• It has been a full year – what do the data show?
Press Release Highlights:

To achieve Functional Zero, the number of individuals placed in interim or permanent housing must be greater than the number of individuals who become homeless over a six-month period, and the homeless population must have a median duration on the streets of less than 90 days.
• Where does HB stand on achieving this goal?
Mobile Crisis Response: . . . . . The City is assessing its impact on reducing police demand and aiding homeless individuals to see if it can be expanded regionally. • Funding has ended – what did the assessment show?
Cities participating in the Functional Zero program conduct weekly case conferencing with the SBCCOG’s Homeless Services team, at which time a roster of individuals is updated, and person-centric interventions are discussed. Using a framework designed by SBCCOG’s Homeless Services Manager Ronson Chu, data is examined at a macro level to evaluate the resource investments and opportunities. • Obviously, privacy and HIPAA concerns preclude providing reports by name – but where is the data describing, for example, the progress or outcome with “Individual A?”

Learn why this is important
Dear Mayor and City Council Members ,
I hope this message finds you well. As we approach the holiday season, I’d like to propose that the City Council consider approving free parking in our downtown area during the holiday period.

This small gesture can have a big impact on our community:

It encourages residents and visitors to shop locally, supporting our small businesses during their busiest and most important season.

It creates a more welcoming and festive atmosphere downtown, helping to draw people to local events, restaurants, and shops.

It demonstrates the City’s commitment to revitalizing and supporting our local economy while fostering community spirit.

Many nearby towns have adopted similar “Free Holiday Parking” initiatives with great success. Offering free parking from Thanksgiving weekend through Christmas —this would be a meaningful and well-received gesture by both merchants and residents.

Thank you for your consideration and continued support of our community.

The free parking program with festive red bagged meters are so important during the crucial holiday season for
downtown Hermosa businesses. South Bay residents
have many shopping options during the holidays, and we
need need to make the Hermosa experience the absolute

After your last meter parking decision of a couple of weeks ago our meters in Hermosa are now the highest of the

TREASURER'S REPORT
SEPTEMBER 2025

Page 99 of 572 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 1 of 2
Meeting Date: October 28, 2025

TREASURER UPDATE
In addition to this month’s Treasurer Report on our investments, I want to update the City Council and residents of Hermosa Beach on my activities in recent months.

The City Treasurer is specifically charged with providing the prudent investment of city funds as delineated in our Investment Policy. Working with our City Finance team (led by Brandon Walker), there is integration with our cash flow update and the ebb and flow of our balances due to the timing of inflows and expenses. Our dialog and collaboration have been excellent, ensuring that we are aligned on actions and strategies.

I did set goals during the 2024 campaign and wish to share my progress on them. 1) GOAL: Efficient, optimized management of Hermosa’s Investment Portfolio • We are currently navigating changes in interest rate environment and working to change our portfolio structure to favor the more typical yield environment over the coming months.
• We have updated our investment policy language to increase our flexibility and choices in buying CDs. (presented to and approved by City Council on June 10, 2025).
• We purchase Treasuries and CDs through a broker to implement our investment strategy. Hermosa Beach last issued an RFP in approximately 2013 and while several brokers were identified, our engagement with them has narrowed over the years. We have been dealing exclusively with one firm since August 2021 and while they are a valued partner, I do intend to work with our Administrative Services / Finance Team to release an RFP for similar services in the near future. This will ensure that we continue to receive competitive pricing and market insight.
2) GOAL: Increased engagement and visibility with City Council, City Staff and community members
• The role of City Treasurer has traditionally maintained a low profile while managing our investments. As such, there is not an established schedule or norms for engagement but I have worked to have more visibility within our community.

Page 100 of 572 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 2
• So far in 2025, I have spoken at our City Council meetings on March 25 and June 10. I intend to continue attending City Council meetings as appropriate, including finance-related meetings.
• I do make a point to attend events within Hermosa Beach and yes, I do get impromptu questions from residents about our investments, our city’s overall finance and role clarity in a variety of settings. I welcome these conversations! Since taking office, this has included my attendance at: State of the City Address, Chief Landon Phillips Badge Pinning Ceremony, Mayor Rotation, St Patrick’s Day Parade, Clark Building Reopening, Leadership Hermosa Orientation and City Government night, Hermosa 9-11 Memorial event, Glow Ride to benefit Cystic Fibrosis, Oktoberfest and Coastal Commission Reception.
• While the current monthly Treasurer’s Report format is sufficient, I am reviewing potential improvements for 2026.
3) Prioritize dialog with peers throughout California to evaluate and institute best practices.
• I have enjoyed connecting with Treasurers in other California cities. There are significant differences in scope, staffing, Treasurer experience and size of investment portfolio that make direct comparisons somewhat challenging. Still, these conversations are valuable, and I have spoken with my counterparts in Glendale, Carlsbad, Manhattan Beach and other jurisdictions to understand their approach and identify practices that might be applicable for Hermosa Beach.
• I attended the California Municipal Treasurers Association ( CMTA) conference in April and spent two days learning about different approaches and philosophies to the betterment of our residents. As well, I presented as a panelist on the CMTA “Elected Treasurers – A Roundtable Discussion” in August.

I continue to enjoy this role and work to ensure that Hermosa Beach Investment Funds are invested in a manner consistent with Safety, Liquidity and Return.

Respectfully Submitted,
David Pedersen

Staff Report No. 25-CDD-155
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council ADOPT AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 2.52.040 OF THE HERMOSA

BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO REVIEW OF PLANNING COMMISSION

ACTIONS
CEQA: Determine that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act per Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines
(Community Development Director Alison Becker)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommend the City Council:

1. Determine that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act per Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA guidelines;

2. Adopt by title only and waive second reading of an ordinance titled “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, Amending Section

2.52.040 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code related to the review of Planning Commission actions; and determining the ordinance is exempt from CEQA (Attachment 1); and

3. Direct the City Clerk to print and publish the summary ordinances in a newspaper of general circulation within 15 days following adoption and post it on the City’s bulletin for 30 days.

Executive Summary:

At its meeting on October 14, 2025, City Council conducted a public hearing and introduced and waived first reading of an ordinance amending Hermosa Beach Municipal Code, Section 2.52.040, related to the review of Planning Commission actions. This ordinance will modernize the procedures to facilitate concurrent council review and public appeal processes.

Background:

The City Council last updated Hermosa Beach Municipal Code § 2.52.040 related to procedures for City Council initiated reviews of Planning Commission actions in 1995.

The code amendments were prompted by a court case (Cohan v. City of Thousand Oaks) and procedures were updated to prevent due process violations of applicants’ rights.

Past Council Action
Meeting Date Description
November 28, 1995 City Council adopted Ordinance 95-1145, updating the provisions for the review of Planning Commission Actions Discussion:

Currently, the City Council's review of Planning Commission actions related to Conditional Use Permits and the start of the public appeal period is a sequential process. The tenday public appeal period begins only after the Planning Commission's actions are reported to the City Council; in practice, this consists of a report of the Planning Commission meeting minutes agendized under the consent portion of the agenda. At the City Council meeting, a decision of the Planning Commission with a vote from at least two Council members (Attachment 2) can then be referred to the City Council for a hearing at a future date.

Under the existing procedures, applicants typically wait a minimum of three weeks for the review and appeal process to expire. However, the timeframe can be extended up to six to eight weeks, particularly if there are five weeks in a month, holidays, or a combination of both. Applicants find this variability at the start of the appeal process to be frustrating, as it adds to the overall development timeline.

Staff recommend that the City Council’s review process of Planning Commission actions related to Conditional Use Permits be amended to run concurrently with the public appeal process, reducing the variability in the timeframe of the conclusion of the appeal process.

As proposed, the call up of a Planning Commission decision would be initiated by filing a request on a form prepared by the City Clerk (Attachment 3). Planning Commission actions related to Conditional Use Permits receiving a request from two council members for a single action would then be scheduled for a future hearing.

Currently, appeals of Planning Commission decisions must be filed within ten days of the decision. The Planning Commission presently conducts its regular meeting on the third Tuesday of each month. The tenth day of the appeal falls on a Friday, which is a regular day off. As a result, the appeal period is extended through the end of the next business day, which is usually a Monday (the thirteenth day following the Planning Commission meeting). Staff recommend revising the appeal period from ten to fifteen days to minimize confusion about the last day of the appeal period. Staff will prepare a Zone Text Amendment to update the Zoning Ordinance, ensuring consistency throughout the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions.

Staff Report No. 25-CDD-148
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE A FINAL PARCEL MAP
CEQA: Determine that the Project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
SUBJECT: FINAL MAP NO. 84231 (CUP. NO. 23-10, PDP NO. 23-07) LOCATION: 620 9th Street
APPLICANT(S): Brett Drogmund and Pricilla Lee
(Community Development Director Alison Becker)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Determine that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act;

2. Adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) approving Final Parcel Map No. 84231 for a three-unit residential condominium project located at 620 9th Street, (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 December 11, 2023, meeting, the Planning Commission approved a Vesting Tentative Parcel Map for condominium purposes for a three-unit residential building at 620 9th Street. The applicants, Brett Drogmund and Pricilla Lee, filed a request for a final map within two years of the tentative map approval. Upon review of Final Map No. 84231, staff recommend that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the final map.

Background:

The Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit, Precise Development Plan, and Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No. 84231 for a three-unit residential condominium project at its December 11, 2023 meeting.

Page 122 of 572 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No. 84231 for a three-unit attached condominium at 620 9th Street.

Discussion:

Once a map has been tentatively approved by the Planning Commission, copies of the tentatively approved map are 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 on June 10, 2024 (Attachment 3).

An applicant has two years from the date of tentative map approval to submit for final map approval. Typically, applicants do not submit for final map approval until the project is near completion and ready to be sold. The applicant filed a timely request for a final map on August 4, 2025.

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. (Cal. Gov. Code § 66410 et seq.).

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.

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 a limited number of new, small structures. More specifically, the project comprises three new condominium units in an urbanized area. 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 is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions.

Staff Report No. 25-CDD-149
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

SUBJECT: FINAL MAP NO. 84203 (CUP NO. 23-11, PDP NO. 23-08) LOCATION: 1009 5th Street
APPLICANT: Saeid Shokravi
(Community Development Director Alison Becker)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Determine that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act;

2. Adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) approving Final Parcel Map No. 84203 for a two-unit residential condominium project located at 1009 5th Street, (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 November 13, 2023 meeting, the Planning Commission approved a new two-unit detached condominium project at 1009 5th Street. The applicant, Saeid Shokravi, filed a request for a final map within two years of the tentative map approval. Upon review of Final Map No. 84203, staff recommend that the City Council adopt a resolution to approve the final map.

Past Commission Action
Meeting Date Description
Planning Commission
November 13, 2023
Planning Commission approved Conditional Use
Permit (CUP 23-11), Precise Development Plan
(PDP 23-08), and Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No.
84203 for a two-unit detached condominium at
1009 5th Street.

Discussion:

Once a map has been tentatively 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 on February 6, 2025 (Attachment 3).

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 a limited number of new, small structures. More specifically, the project comprises two new detached condominium units in an urbanized area. 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.

Completion Date2 Current Project Status Project Description X 106 Annual Street Improvements (New) SH $3,625,257.00 Heecheol Kwon X 07/25 05/27 In May 2025, staff applied a construction grant for $2,560,000 in funding from Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) STBG/CMAQ grant program. The project has been ranked "Highly Recommended" and is awaiting final decision for this grant anticipated by end of 2025. Survey work for the preliminary design has started and staff is finalizin street segments for this project.

The project design is 20% complete, and Topographic survey work is expected to be delivered by the end of October, 2025.

This project provides for pavement rehabilitation of various streets throughout the city. The project will also repair/replace deteriorated portions of sidewalk, curb and gutter, and curb ramps. This work will be performed following the sewer and storm drain repairs identified in the Sewer and Drainage Master Plans. 107 Annual Slurry Seal (New) SH $450,000.00 Magvern By X 07/25 07/26 Staff has started the preliminary design, which is approximately 60% complete, and working to finalize street segments. This project includes slurry seal of various roadways throughout the city to preserve pavement conditions and to extend its service life.
109 Utility Box Wrappings SH $26,516.00 Karla Vargas X 07/21 11/31/2025 Art has been designed and installed on 21 of the 24 utility boxes. Designs have been finalized for 2 of the remaining 3 boxes, with installation to follow. The schedule has been extended to allow additional necessary time for PW staff to prepare electronic art work, paint and repair utility boxes and schedule wrapping.

This project will add decorative paint and/or wraps to city-owned utility boxes throughout the city. The City is engaging a local artist cooperative to create the artwork that will either be painted or applied via vinyl wrap to the boxes.

Meeting Date: October 28, 2025
Staff Report No. 25-PW-078
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

APPROVE THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

FOR ON-CALL ARBORIST CONSULTING SERVICES WITH MINK TREE

CONSULTING
(Public Works Director Joe SanClemente)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Approve the proposed first amendment to agreement with Mink Tree Consulting, Inc. (Mink), to provide on-call arborist consulting services increasing the not-toexceed contract amount from $30,000 to $60,000; and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the proposed amendment, approve minor modifications if necessary, and execute all related documents, with the City Clerk attesting the agreement subject to approval by the City Attorney.

Executive Summary:

Staff requests approval of the proposed amendment to increase the not-to-exceed contract amount from $30,000 to $60,000 to provide ongoing, on-call arborist consulting services with Mink Tree Consulting (Mink).

Background:

The Public Works Department relies on third-party professionals to provide arborist consulting services in support of the City’s maintenance of City-owned trees in parks, medians and other areas in the City.

In August 2024, the City Manager approved a professional services agreement with Mink, to provide on-call arborist consulting services to the City of Hermosa Beach for an initial not-to-exceed contract amount of $30,000. The term of the agreement ends August 2026, which will remain the same under the proposed amendment. Since August 2024, the City has utilized Mink on multiple tasks including ongoing field visits, research, and reports for assessments of tree health and condition, recommendation of pruning and removal of trees, potential hazards and risk assessments, recommendations for tree replacements, review of tree installation specifications, on other as needed arborist consulting services in coordination with City staff and City contractors. The City has approximately spent $24,000 of the original contract amount on these services. A majority of this expense was

Page 147 of 572 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 2
for risk assessment related to fallen trees and branches Valley Park and the development of an appropriate replanting plan.

Discussion:

Staff requests approval of the proposed amendment for the increase to the not-to-exceed contract amount from $30,000 to $60,000 for ongoing arborist consulting services. Mink is currently providing ongoing arborist advisory services related to tree removals and replacements, inspections of trees, and best practices for tree care. Staff will also require ongoing arborist advisory services in the coming months to support the review of the scope of work in the current landscape maintenance services contract that is set to expire in June 2026.

Fiscal Impact:

Approval of this amendment will increase the not-to-exceed contract amount by $30,000, from $30,000 to $60,000 for as-needed work. Sufficient funds are budgeted in the Public Works Administration Contract Services Account or in CIP Project Budgets for specific projects.

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.

CONSULTANT may terminate this Agreement. Notice will be in writing at least 30 days before the effective termination date.

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

INDEMNIFICATION. To the extent permitted by law, CONSULTANT shall indemnify, and hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature to the extent caused by CONSULTANT's negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT. CONSULTANT shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against CITY (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of the CONSULTANT’s negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct. 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 to the extent such fees, costs and all other costs are determined by the court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the actual negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the Consultant. 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.

ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONSULTANT’s professional services.

CONSULTANT’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT. CITY and CONSULTANT agree that CONSULTANT will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which is it performed. CONSULTANT will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONSULTANT is not an agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan,

Page 151 of 572 ends

insurance, bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. 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. CONSULTANT further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following final payment under this Agreement.

CONSULTANT will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to 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 CONSULTANT for City.

2. General Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than two million dollars ($2,000,000) 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

Page 152 of 572 ends

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 sub-consultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-peroccurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by City, and shall be endorsed as follows.

CONSULTANT also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONSULTANT, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.”

2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.

Any insurance 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 CONSULTANT arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY

Page 153 of 572 ends

assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.

D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the CITY. At the CITY’s option, the CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

E. The CONSULTANT shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein. Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.

F. Failure on the part of the CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.

G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the Consultant (as the named insured) should Consultant fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements.

The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. Consultant understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by Consultant as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should City pay the SIR or deductible on Consultant’s behalf upon the Consultant’s failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, City may include such amounts as damages in any action against Consultant for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by City due to the breach.

USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any sub-consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.

FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONSULTANT of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of the 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.

Page 154 of 572 ends

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.

Meeting Date: October 28, 2025
Staff Report No. 25-PD-013
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

APPROVE FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH ALL CITY MANAGEMENT SERVICES, INC.
(Police Chief Landon Phillips)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Approve the proposed first amendment to agreement with All City Management Services, Inc., to provide crossing guard services at an additional location at 5th Street and Pacific Coast Highway to increase the not-to-exceed amount by $46,394, resulting in a total not-to-exceed amount of $686,461 (Attachment 1);

2. Appropriate $23,197 for the first-year amendment in the Proposition C Fund 146 to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Budget; and

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest the proposed first amendment, subject to approval by the City Attorney.

Executive Summary:

The current agreement with All City Management Services, Inc (ACMS) has 14 fixed locations where crossing guard services are provided. When the new school year started in August, staff saw a need for crossing guard services at the intersection of 5th St. and PCH. After several days of assessing foot traffic at this location, staff recommends the approval of the proposed first amendment to add this new location to the agreement for crossing guard services with ACMS.

Background:

At its April 8th, 2025, meeting, City Council approved a one-year agreement with the option to extend up to two one-year terms with ACMS to provide crossing guard services (Attachment 2). The City of Hermosa Beach opened a Request for Proposals (RFP) seeking proposals from qualified vendors for crossing guard service in February 2025.

The RFP included 14 fixed locations where crossing guard services were required. The City received a total of three (3) proposals in response to the RFP. The proposals were independently evaluated by a staff review panel. ACMS was the selected vendor for this RFP.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
Past Council Action
Meeting Date Description
April 8, 2025 City Council approved a professional services agreement with All City Management Services, Inc. to provide crossing guard services for the City of Hermosa Beach.

Discussion:

On August 15, 2025, staff were made aware of growing community concerns regarding the need for an additional crossing guard at the 5th Street/ Pacific Coast Highway intersection. As the upcoming school year approached, staff contacted ACMS and requested an additional guard on a temporary basis to monitor the intersection beginning August 20, 2025. ACMS deployed a crossing guard and tracked the number of children and adults crossing the intersection. City staff also responded and audited the intersection noting that approximately 189 children and adults utilized the intersection during the hours of 7:00 am - 8:15 am and 2:30 pm – 3:45 pm. Many individuals crossing the intersection appeared to be students traveling to school. Staff determined that the amount of traffic validated the need for a permanent crossing guard at 5th Street/Pacific Coast Highway for the safety of students and others crossing.

Fiscal Impact:

Approval of the proposed amendment for additional crossing guard services would result in a $23,197 annual increase in both FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27 service years for a total of $46,394.

The total annual service cost would increase from $315,315 to $338,512 for FY 2025-26 and $324,752 to $347,949 for FY 2026-27.

Available Proposition C Special Revenue funds are available to fund the FY 2025-26 amendment. Staff will budget the FY 2026-27 amendment in the upcoming FY 2027 City Budget with projected available Proposition C funds.

CHANGES. CITY may order changes in the services within the general scope of this Agreement, consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions, and the contract sum and the contract time will be adjusted accordingly.

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

INDEMNIFICATION. CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR'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 CONTRACTOR’S legal counsel unacceptable, then CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONTRACTOR’s professional services. CONTRACTOR’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that CONTRACTOR will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which it is performed. CONTRACTOR will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONTRACTOR is not an agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance, bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONTRACTOR as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONTRACTOR will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

AUDIT OF RECORDS. CONTRACTOR agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement. CONTRACTOR 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. CONTRACTOR further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following final payment under this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR will keep all books, records, accounts, and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Agreement.

CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONTRACTOR will promptly implement any corrective measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR will be given a reasonable amount of time as determined by the City to implement said corrective measures. Failure of CONTRACTOR to implement required corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.

A. The CONTRACTOR, at the CONTRACTOR’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 CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONTRACTOR 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.

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 CONTRACTOR, 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.

Page 5 of 11 ends

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. CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

E. The CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR (as the named insured) should CONTRACTOR 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.

CONTRACTOR understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONTRACTOR as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement.

Should City pay the SIR or deductible on CONTRACTOR’s behalf upon the CONTRACTOR’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 CONTRACTOR for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by City due to the breach.

USE OF OTHER CONTRACTORS. CONTRACTOR must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any sub-CONTRACTORs while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed CONTRACTOR and the terms of compensation.

FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONTRACTOR 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 CONTRACTOR for anything done, furnished, or relating to the CONTRACTOR’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 CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-CONTRACTORs 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 CONTRACTOR, its employees, subCONTRACTORs and agents.
