Staff Report No. 26-PW-039
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council APPROVAL OF ROAD REPAIR AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017 (SENATE BILL 1) PROJECT LIST FOR THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026–2027
CEQA: The Project is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15060(c)(3).
(Public Works Director Joe SanClemente)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve a resolution (Attachment 1) adopting a list of projects for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026–27 funded by Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017; and
2. Direct staff to submit the project list (Attachment 2) and supporting documentation to the California Transportation Commission by July 1, 2026.
Executive Summary:
Senate Bill 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, provides funding for the maintenance and repair of local streets and roads through a Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). To be eligible for Fiscal Year 2026–27 funding, the City must submit a project list to the California Transportation Commission (Commission) by July 1, 2026, with a resolution documenting the approval of the City’s project list.
Background:
April 28, 2017, the Governor of California signed SB 1, known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, to address road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on both the state highway system and local street and road system. SB 1 provides funding from sources including fuel excise taxes, commercial vehicle weight fees, local transactions and use taxes, and federal funds.
A percentage of this funding is apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties for road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local street and road system. The projected revenue for the City of Hermosa Beach in Fiscal Year 2026–27 is $554,566.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 5
SB 1 revenue is not intended to replace existing local discretionary funding, such as General Fund or Capital Improvement Funds, for road repair and maintenance projects.
Therefore, it requires cities and counties to maintain their existing commitment of local funds for street, road, and highway purposes in order to remain eligible for an RMRA funding apportionment as defined by the Maintenance of Effort (MOE) estimate. The MOE estimate establishes the minimum amount of funding that the City of Hermosa Beach must continue to allocate on an annual basis toward street and highway projects from local discretionary funds.
The Road Repair and Accountability Act contains a local agency maintenance of effort (MOE) requirement that applies to funds allocated through the RMRA. The Act states that the MOE requirement is to ensure that these new roads funds do not supplant existing levels of city and county general revenue spending on streets and roads. The MOE for the receipt of RMRA funds state that a city or county must maintain local fund spending for street, road, and highway purposes at no less than average of 2009–10, 2010–11, and 2011–12 years. Based on the review, the SCO set the City’s MOE at $833,246.
The Commission requires the City to submit a list of projects (Attachment 2) each fiscal year. The FY 2026–27 list is due to the Commission by July 1, 2026. The Commission also requires the City to develop and submit a project expenditure report by October 1, 2026 for the FY 2025–26 expenditures and comply with all requirements including reporting requirements for RMRA funding.
RMRA funding may be used for road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local street and road system. Streets and Highways Code (SHC) Section 2030 provides a number of example projects and uses for RMRA funding that include, but are not limited to, the following:
Road maintenance and rehabilitation
Safety projects
Railroad grade separations
Complete Streets components including active transportation purposes, pedestrian and bicycle safety projects, transit facilities, and drainage and stormwater capture projects in conjunction with any other allowable project Traffic control devices
Additionally, RMRA projects may incorporate, where feasible, the following project elements:
Technologies and material recycling techniques that lower greenhouse gas emissions and reduce the cost of maintaining local streets and roads through material choice and construction method.
Systems and components in transportation infrastructure that recognize and
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 5
accommodate technologies including but not limited to Zero Emissions Vehicle (ZEV) fueling or charging and infrastructure-vehicle communications for transitional or fully autonomous vehicles.
Project features that increase resilience to the impacts of climate change, fires, floods, and sea level rise.
Complete Streets elements that improve the quality of bicycle and pedestrian facilities and that improve safety for all users of transportation facilities.
A city or county may spend its apportionment of RMRA funds on transportation priorities other than those outlined in SHC Section 2030 if the city or county’s average pavement condition index (PCI) meets or exceeds 80. Hermosa Beach currently has an average PCI below 80, therefore, the City must spend the available funds on the types of projects listed above.
RMRA funds may also be used to satisfy a match requirement in order to obtain state or federal funds for eligible projects.
Discussion:
Based on the expected revenues available for Fiscal Year 2026–27, staff has identified projects that meet the Street and Highway Code guidance for projects for this year’s list.
The recommended projects are described below and in (Attachment 2).
CIP 423—Annual Sewer Improvements
Total Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget: $3,300,000
CIP 423 would provide expanded pavement rehabilitation following trenching performed for sewer main rehabilitation at various locations in the City.
CIP 106—Annual Street Improvements
Total Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget: $4,155,000
CIP 106 would provide pavement rehabilitation of streets at various locations including Monterey Boulevard from Pier Avenue to Manhattan Avenue. The project would also address limited quantities of deteriorated concrete sidewalks, curb and gutter, and curb ramps in combination with CIP 115.
CIP 115—Annual Sidewalk Improvements
Total Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget: $245,000
CIP 115 would provide removal, replacement, and other improvements to sidewalks throughout the City to maintain and improve safety in combination with CIP 106.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 5
CIP 143—PCH/Aviation Mobility Improvement Project
Total Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget: $43,375
CIP 143 would improve accessibility, mobility, and safety along the Pacific Coast Highway corridor.
FY 2026-27 Sidewalk Grinding and Repairs
Total Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget: $150,000
Sidewalk grinding and repairs is part of operations and maintenance project that would provide grinding and repairs to sidewalks to address trip hazards and improve safety.
Environmental Analysis:
The proposed action is not a project under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3). Further, even if this proceeding was deemed a project, it would be Categorically Exempt from CEQA per Section 15301, Existing Facilities, subsection (b) due to its funding the “existing facilities of both investor and public-owned utilities used to provide electric power, natural gas, sewage, or other public utility services” and subsection (c) “Existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities (this includes road grading for the purpose of public safety, and other alterations such as the addition of bicycle facilities, including but not limited to bicycle parking, bicycle-share facilities and bicycle lanes, transit improvements such as bus lanes, pedestrian crossings, street trees, and other similar alterations that do not create additional automobile lanes).”
Options for Council Consideration:
Option 1: Approve resolution adopting a list of projects for fiscal year 2026-27 funded by SB1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (Recommended) Allows the City to collect $554,566 from SB1 that can be used for essential road maintenance and rehabilitation projects
Option 2: Do not approve the resolution
The City will not be able to collect $554,566 in SB1 funding for FY 2026-27. Less paving will be completed.
Fiscal Impact:
The projected SB 1 revenue for the City in Fiscal Year 2026–27 is $554,566, which would be expended on projects listed in the Fiscal Year 2026–27 RMRA Project List (Attachment 2).

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
CONSIDERATION OF THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE HERMOSA BEACH FRIENDS
OF THE LIBRARY AGREEMENT
(Parks and Recreation Director Lisa Nichols)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve the proposed third amendment to an agreement with the Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library and;
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest the proposed amendments, subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
The Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library agreement was executed in 2021 with a threeyear term and three additional single year options to renew by amendment. Friends of the Library has requested to utilize the third and final renewal option.
Background:
The City first entered into an agreement with the Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library in 2021 (Attachment 1). The Friends of the Library provides a service to the community by funding programs at the Hermosa Beach Public Library, installing Little Free Libraries throughout the City, hosting Community “Author Series” events, and collecting donated books and redistributing them at the bookstore, and across Southern California.
Past Council Action
Meeting Date Description
June 22, 2021
City Council approved the Lease Agreement with Hermosa
Beach Friends of the Library for use of the outbuilding located just outside the Community Center, at 710 Pier Avenue, for the organization’s bookstore.
Discussion:
The proposed third amendment (Attachment 2) would extend the existing agreement with the Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library for an additional one-year term, consistent with the renewal options outlined in the original agreement. The Friends of the Library has remained an active community partner, supporting literacy, educational programming,
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 2
and public access to reading materials through a variety of volunteer-led initiatives and fundraising efforts that benefit the Hermosa Beach Public Library and the broader community. Approval of the amendment would allow the organization to continue operating under the existing agreement terms while maintaining the programs and services currently provided to the community.
Fiscal Impact:
Since the City has entered into an agreement with Friends of the Library in 2021, the agreement provides terms which require the organization to pay $1 a year.

Staff Report No. 26-CMO-036
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL OF A LETTER TO THE NATIONAL PARK
SERVICE REGARDING THE LOS ANGELES COASTAL AREA SPECIAL
RESOURCE STUDY
(City Manager Steve Napolitano)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve the letter to be submitted to the National Park Service on behalf of the City of Hermosa Beach regarding Los Angeles Coastal Area Special Resource Study.
Executive Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), under direction from Congress (Public Law 117-328, Section 634), enacted in December 2022, has initiated a Special Resource Study (SRS) evaluating portions of the Los Angeles County coastline. This includes areas from Will Rogers State Beach to Torrance Beach for potential inclusion in the National Park System.
The NPS is asking for the City’s approval to be included in the SRS.
Background:
The City of Hermosa Beach lies within the study area. The study will assess whether coastal resources meet federal criteria for national park designation and evaluate potential management alternatives.
A Special Resource Study is a formal evaluation conducted by the NPS to determine whether an area is eligible for designation as a unit of the National Park System. The NPS anticipates completing this study by early 2027.
The study evaluates the following four criterias:
National Significance
Suitability
Feasibility
Need for Direct NPS Management
If the study finds qualifying resources, recommendations are submitted to Congress. Any designation would require Congressional action or presidential proclamation.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
The coastal zone under consideration generally extends from the mean high tide line inland approximately 200 yards.
California Coastal Commission Potential Impacts:
The Coastal Commission’s authority comes from the California Coastal Act of 1976. The Coastal Act governs Coastal development permits, public access, environmental protection, and local coastal program (LCP) oversight. Nothing in the NPS Special Resource Study overrides or replaces that authority. If and when the national park designation is recommended and approved, the Coastal Commission would retain permitting authority in the coastal zone.
If the National Park Service becomes involved, projects may require dual coordination between NPS and the Coastal Commission. It may add complexity to permitting coastal access improvements. However, being part of the NPS may provide more access to federal funding opportunities for coastal improvements.
An initial public comment period was open from February 5 through April 6, 2026. The public comment period was extended to May 23, 2026. Additional engagement opportunities are expected as the study progresses.
The NPS is currently seeking input from local agencies, stakeholders, and the public. City Council direction is requested regarding whether Hermosa Beach should participate in this process. Additionally, the City of Hermosa Beach may consider not to be included in this study. If the Council chooses not to participate, the City may forgo any future designation as a national park.
Participation in the study provides the City an opportunity to:
Ensure local priorities and concerns are represented
Clarify the City’s role in any future management scenarios Advocate for preservation, access, and local control considerations On May 12, 2026, the City Council directed staff to participate in the Los Angeles Coastal Area Special Resource Study and to submit a letter responding to questions provided by the National Park Service.

Subject: Response to Questions Regarding NPS Special Resource Study Dear National Park Service Representatives:
The City of Hermosa Beach appreciates the opportunity to participate in the ongoing study regarding the history and resources of the Los Angeles coastal area pursuant to Public Law 117-328. The City values continued coordination with the National Park Service throughout this process and respectfully provides the following responses to the requested questions.
1. Who or what organization owns and/or manages your property? The property is owned and managed by the City of Hermosa Beach.
2. How is the site currently being used? Do any events happen there, and if so, what type of events? Is the site open to the community or to the public in any way? The site is currently used for a variety of public and community-serving purposes. Depending on the specific location, uses may include public recreation, community gatherings, civic activities, beach access, and special events. The site is open and accessible to the public and serves as an important community asset for residents and visitors alike.
3. Do you want to work with the National Park Service on this study’s analysis of historical significance and feasibility as a potential national park unit of some form, if a park that interprets the history of the Los Angeles coastal area is considered by Congress in the future? Do you want your property to be included in this study? The City is willing to continue coordinating with the National Park Service during the study process and is open to providing information relevant to the study’s analysis. Inclusion of City property in the study does not constitute support for any future designation or action and would be subject to future review and consideration by the City Council.
4. Would you support the creation of a national park unit that involves your property in some way, whether through historical interpretation or public visitation, possibly by forming a partnership with the National Park Service? At this time, the City has not taken a formal position regarding the creation of a national park unit. The City would be open to learning more about potential partnership opportunities, historical interpretation efforts, and possible impacts before considering any future involvement.
1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 | hermosabeach.gov | HermosaBeachCity HermosaBchCity
5. Do you have any concerns about interpreting the history of the Los Angeles coastal area at your property? If so, what are your concerns?
The City would want to ensure that any historical interpretation accurately reflects the diverse history, culture, and community context of the Los Angeles coastal area. The City would also want to understand any operational, financial, maintenance, or public access implications associated with interpretation efforts.
6. Do you have any concerns about maintaining the physical appearance and condition of your property now or in the future, particularly the features that contribute to its historical significance?
The City’s primary concern is maintaining the long-term functionality, safety, accessibility, and public use of its facilities and properties. Any future preservation or historical designation considerations would need to be balanced with operational needs, maintenance responsibilities, funding availability, and community priorities.
7. If the opportunity to donate or sell your property at a fair market value to the U.S.
Government were to arise at some point in the future, would you be interested in this possibility? Please note that the federal government would only consider property acquisition through willing sellers for donations or purchases.
The City is not considering the sale or donation of its property at this time. Any future consideration of such a proposal would require formal review and approval by the City Council.
8. Is there anything you would like us to know about your property? The City values its coastal resources, public spaces, and community-serving facilities as important assets that contribute to the character and identity of Hermosa Beach. The City appreciates the opportunity to participate in the study process and looks forward to continued coordination as additional information becomes available.
Thank you again for the opportunity to provide input. Please feel free to contact the City should you require any additional information or clarification.
Sincerely,
Mike Detoy

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
CLARIFY KELLY PICKLEBALL COURTS POLICY ITEM AND ADOPT A
RESOLUTION TO MODIFY THE ANNUAL PICKLEBALL MEMBERSHIP AND
HOURLY RESERVATION FEES
CEQA: The proposed resolution is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378 (b)(5) as it is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
(Parks and Recreation Director Lisa Nichols)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve staff’s recommendation to maintain the Kelly Pickleball Courts Use Policy that Courts 1–4 are available for reservation and walk-on play except on Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only and are not available for reservations; and
2. Adopt a resolution amending the City’s Master Fee Schedule to modify the annual Pickleball Membership and hourly reservation fees.
Executive Summary:
At its May 12, 2026, meeting, City Council approved staff’s recommendation to modify the annual Pickleball Membership fee from $19 to $25 and hourly reservation fees from $9 to $12 following a review of local cities fees related to pickleball memberships and reservations and the City’s cost of service.
During the discussion, City Councilmembers expressed concern that the current Kelly Pickleball Courts Use Policy (Attachment 1) line item stating, “Courts 1–4 are available for reservation and walk-on play except on Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only and are not available for reservations” may not align with the policy direction previously provided by City Council at its March 24, 2026 meeting related to permissible reservations and walk-on play days. Therefore, this item has been agendized to allow City Council to review and clarify the intended policy direction related to court reservations and walk-on play availability at the Kelly Pickleball Courts with consideration of additional information pertaining to staff operations and administration of the Kelly Pickleball Courts.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 5
Background:
At its March 24, 2026, meeting, City Council approved modifications to the Kelly Pickleball Courts Use Policy (Attachment 1), including updated hours of operation from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily, revisions to permissible play equipment, and designation of Courts 1 through 4 for both reservation on all days, except Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only. Additionally, City Council directed staff to return within 90 days of the reopening of the courts with a report on any complaints or community feedback received and court usage.
During the discussion, City Council expressed support for modifying pickleball membership fees to $25 annually and court reservation fees to $15 per hour for residents and provided direction to staff regarding those potential changes. However, following the March 24, 2026, City Council meeting, the City received timely written demands to cure and correct pursuant to Government Code Section 54960.1 from several members of the public. Therefore, at its April 14, 2026, City Council meeting, City Council rescinded its March 24, 2026, action related to pickleball fee increases and directed staff to conduct a fee study and return with fee recommendations prior to the reopening of the Kelly Pickleball Courts.
At its May 12, 2026, meeting, staff presented City Council with the results of its fee study and recommended modifying the annual Pickleball Membership fee to $25 and the hourly reservation fee to $12 per hour for residents, which City Council approved.
During the discussion, City Councilmembers expressed concern that the current Kelly Pickleball Courts Use Policy (Attachment 1) line item stating, “Courts 1–4 are available for reservation and walk-on play except on Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only and are not available for reservations” may not align with the policy direction previously provided by City Council at its March 24, 2026 meeting related to permissible reservations and walk-on play days.

Discussion:
Staff prepared the update to the City’s Master Fee Schedule to implement City Council’s approved fee modifications by drafting a resolution modifying the annual Pickleball Membership fee $25 and hourly reservation fees to $12 (Attachment 2).
At its March 24, 2026 meeting, City Council approved modifications to the Kelly Pickleball Courts Use Policy (Attachment 1), including updated hours of operation from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily, revisions to permissible play equipment, and designation of Courts 1 through 4 for reservations on all days except Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only. Following the meeting, staff interpreted that reservations would be prioritized and accommodated on all days except Fridays, while still allowing walk-on play during unreserved time periods to maximize court utilization and public access.
Following the March 24, 2026, meeting, staff incorporated policy language stating that “Courts 1–4 are available for reservation and walk-on play except on Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only and are not available for reservations.” Staff interpreted this approach as operationally consistent with City Council’s direction while ensuring courts would not remain vacant during unreserved periods. Prior to the closure of the courts for renovation, courts were reserved approximately 98% of the time, and obtaining a reservation was highly competitive due to strong demand. While this usage occurred when only two courts were operational and court hours were more limited, staff anticipates demand will continue to remain high upon reopening, though the level of demand may vary.
City Council
March 24, 2026
City Council approved modifications to the Kelly Pickleball Courts Use Policy, including revisions to permissible play equipment, designation of all courts as available for reservation except on Fridays, which would be reserved for walk-on play only, and establishment of daily hours of operation from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and directed staff to return within 90 days of the reopening of the Kely Pickleball Courts with a report on complaints, community feedback, and court usage. Council also expressed support for modifying pickleball membership fees to $25 annually and court reservation fees to $15 per hour for residents.
City Council:
April 14, 2026
City Council cured and corrected its prior direction to staff regarding pickleball membership and reservation fees and directed staff to conduct a fee study and return with fee recommendations prior to the reopening of the Kelly Pickleball Courts.
City Council:
May 12, 2026
City Council approved staff’s recommendation to modify the annual Pickleball Membership fee from $19 to $25 and hourly reservation fees from $9 to $12.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 5
Limiting court use exclusively to reservations on all non-Friday days would be operationally difficult to administer and enforce. Under the current policy, reservations are issued on a first-come, first-served basis and may be requested no sooner than one day and no more than seven days in advance, with no same-day reservations permitted. Staff prepares and posts daily reservation schedules and signage each morning based on reservations received in advance. Because reservations may vary by court and by hour throughout the day, requiring courts to remain vacant between reservation periods would not be operationally feasible with current staffing resources. Parks and Recreation staff are not permanently assigned to the facility and currently only have the capacity to perform periodic site checks in addition to opening and closing responsibilities.
Additionally, there is no mechanism to physically secure or lock individual courts between staggered reservation times.
Strictly prohibiting public use through walk-on play during gaps between reservations would therefore require continuous on-site monitoring and enforcement to ensure courts remain unused while awaiting the next reservation period. Such an approach would likely result in unnecessary periods of court vacancy, reduced overall utilization of the facility, and increased operational demands and costs.
Allowing walk-on use during unreserved times is consistent with the operational model currently utilized at the Community Center Tennis Courts.
Therefore, staff recommends City Council consider maintaining the current policy language stating that “Courts 1–4 are available for reservation and walk-on play except on Fridays, when all courts are designated for walk-on play only and are not available for reservations.”
Environmental Analysis:
The proposed resolution is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378 (b)(5) as it is an organization or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
Fiscal Impact:
Modifying the annual Pickleball Membership fee to $25 and the hourly reservation fee to $12 per hour for residents is anticipated to generate approximately $9,900 in membership revenue and $61,300 in reservation revenue, totaling approximately $71,200 in annual revenue to the General Fund.
It should be noted that these revenue projections are conservative and are based on the assumption that courts would be reserved approximately 40% of the time. Prior to the closure of the courts for renovation, reservation usage averaged approximately 98% of
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 5 of 5
available reservation time. While future usage levels may vary upon reopening, if reservation demand returns to levels similar to those experienced prior to the closure, anticipated reservation revenue could be significantly higher and potentially approach double the current estimate.

Staff Report No. 26-PR-038
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 12.30 SPECIAL EVENTS ON PUBLIC PROPERTY, 12.30.010 and
12.30.030 AND ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH NEW SPECIAL
EVENT PERMIT PROGRAM FEES
CEQA: The proposed ordinance is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378 (b)(5) as it is an organization or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
(Lead Special Events and Filming Coordinator Kalyn Kaemerle).
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Introduce by title only and waive the first reading of an ordinance amending Chapter 12.30 Special Events on Public Property, 12.30.010 Special event regulations generally and 12.30.030 Special event approval and permit issuance to amend policies and fees related to special events on public property; and
2. Adopt a resolution amending the City’s Master Fee Schedule to establish new special event permit program fees.
Executive Summary:
At its May 26, 2026 meeting, City Council approved the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission’s (“Commission”) and staff’s recommendation to amend Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (“HBMC”) Chapter 12.30 (Special Events on Public Property), and Section 12.30.010 (Special event regulations generally) and 12.30.030 (Special event approval and permit issuance) to amend policies and fees related to special events on public property.
Background:
Staff conducted a comprehensive review of the City’s Special Events Policy Guide (and associated fee structure and identified potential policy modifications and fee updates to improve clarity, consistency, administrative efficiency, and cost recovery.
At its April 16, 2026 meeting, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission Commission) recommended that the City Council approve the proposed Special Event
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 7
Policy Guide and associated fee updates with consideration of its feedback on additional Policy Guide updates.
At its May 26, 2026, meeting, City Council approved staff’s recommendations with consideration of such feedback from the Commission on Special Event Policy Guide and associated fee updates, summarized below.
Require new events to submit applications at least 90 days in advance, regardless of Impact Level, replacing prior tiered deadlines.
Eliminate the public hearing requirement for new events, while authorizing the Director to elevate events to a public hearing based on anticipated impacts or other considerations.
Establish a uniform deadline of July 31 for returning events seeking dates in the following calendar year for all Impact Levels, replacing prior tiered submission deadlines.
Eliminate City Council review of returning Impact Level III events, unless otherwise directed by the City Council or due to significant changes from prior years. Allow special consideration of locations not listed in the Special Event Policy Guide upon request.
Expand peak season limits from 45 to a maximum of 50 special event days for Impact Level III events and modify peak season to begin the Saturday preceding Memorial Day, consistent with the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code. Expand applicability of peak season limits from coastal locations to citywide. Add eligibility criteria specifying that events offering prize pools, cash awards, or other participant compensation are not eligible for fee waiver consideration. Revise Fee Waiver Grant Program eligibility to require that events provide a unique community benefit, demonstrate significant economic impact, and show that a partial fee waiver would materially assist event production. Eliminate City Council review and approval to initiate LTA negotiations, delegating this authority to the Commission, while retaining City Council final approval of LTAs following negotiations.
Eliminate the pre-event presentation requirement before the Commission as part of LTA Program obligations.
Modify LTA Program eligibility to require a minimum of three consecutive years of event history in Hermosa Beach.
Remove the “Returning or New Event” classification from the Impact Characteristic Matrix.
Approve the fee additions and updates outlined in Table 1.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 7
Table 1: Approved Special Event Permit Program Fee Updates or Additions Fee Update or Addition Discussion
Modification:
Events with participant plus spectator crowds
less than 500 per event day:
Commercial: $300 per location, per day
Nonprofit: $250 per location, per day
The previous fee requires event producers to
submit participant rosters and applies a rate of
$2 per participant for non-profit events and
30% of registration costs for commercial
events.
The previous fee presents challenges
due to the lack of verification
mechanisms and does not account for
the actual use of City facilities or public
resource impacts. The flat fee was
developed based on an analysis of
historical event data, including the
average cost paid by event producers
under the existing fee structure and
reflects the goal of maintaining
accessibility for smaller events.
Removal:
Pass-through Application: $365
“Because ‘pass-through applications’
require the same level of staff review,
coordination, and permitting as
standard special event applications,
they do not result in reduced staff effort
or cost. Removing this category
ensures equitable cost recovery.
Addition:
Late Commercial Application: $1,204
Late Nonprofit Application: $802
There was no fee associated with late
application submittals. Establishing a
late application fee, with a 10%
increase from the standard application
fees for both commercial and nonprofit
events, accounts for the additional
administrative impact associated with
expedited review. Late applications
can require reallocation of staff
resources and potential impacts on
other City operations and initiatives.
The Late Application would encourage
timely compliance with established
application deadlines and review
processes.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 7
Fee Update or Addition Discussion
Addition:
Commercial LTA Application: $485
Nonprofit LTA Application: $291
There was no fee associated with
submitting an application for the LTA
Program. The review and approval
process for LTAs requires a significant
investment of staff time and resources,
including application review,
preparation of staff reports,
Commission presentations,
negotiation of agreement terms,
preparation of agreements for City
Council approval, and ongoing
coordination and oversight. An LTA
application fee would support cost
recovery for the administrative and
professional staff time required to
manage the full lifecycle of the LTA
process, while ensuring that applicants
contribute proportionately to the
resources required to evaluate and
implement these agreements.
Addition:
Reserved Parking Staging: $207
There was no fee associated with the
staff time and materials required to
implement temporary parking
restrictions for events. This work
includes the preparation, posting,
monitoring, and removal of “No
Parking” signage. A staging fee would
reflect the average staff time,
materials, and logistical coordination
required to implement reserved
parking and staging areas, and would
ensure appropriate cost recovery for
these services.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 5 of 7
Proposed Fee Update or Addition Discussion
Addition:
Event Modification: $114
There was no fee associated with
event modifications requested after
initial approval. Event producers may
request changes such as additional
event days, modifications to event
scope, or date changes, which require
staff to update internal systems,
calendars, permits, and coordinate
with multiple departments and
governing bodies. An event
modification fee would recover the
administrative costs associated with
processing these changes and to
encourage complete and accurate
applications at the time of initial
submittal.
Addition:
Public Hearing: $38 plus costs of publication
of public notice
Currently, the City absorbs the costs
associated with public noticing
requirements for events that require a
public hearing. This includes staff time
to prepare notices, coordination with
the City Clerk’s Office, compliance with
publication requirements, and direct
costs charged by news publications.
Shifting these costs to the event
producer would ensure full cost
recovery for both staff time and
required public noticing expenses
associated with the public hearing
process.
Addition:
Nonprofit Pier Plaza Use Fee: $9,076 per
event day
Addition of a nonprofit Pier Plaza Use
Fee to align with the City’s consistent
application of a 33.4% nonprofit
discount across fee categories. This
adjustment promotes equity and
consistency in the City’s fee structure
while continuing to recognize the
community benefit provided by
nonprofit organizations.

Past Commission and Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
Commission:
April 16, 2026
Commission recommended that the City Council approve the proposed Special Event Policy Guide and associated fee
updates as outlined in the staff report, with consideration of the following feedback from Commissioners:
1. Reinstate the Pier Plaza Promotions program within the Special Events Policy Guide.
2. Remove the “Returning or New Event” criteria from the Impact Characteristics Matrix;
3. Set the peak season limits at a maximum of 50 days, with such period commencing on the Saturday preceding Memorial Day, consistent with the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code;
4. Eliminate all Long-Term Agreement Program eligibility criteria, except for the requirement that an event must have been held in Hermosa Beach for a minimum of three consecutive years.
5. Amend the Fee Waiver Grant Program eligibility criteria only to include that the approve evento must provide a unique benefit to the City or the community, provide a large economic impact, and a partial fee waiver would make a meaningful difference to the promoter's ability to put on the event and do not add the proposed eligibility criteria to specify that events offering prize pools, cash awards, or other forms of participant compensation are not eligible for fee waiver consideration.
City Council:
May 26, 2026
City Council approved the proposed Special Event Policy Guide and fee updates as outlined in the staff report.
Discussion:
Staff prepared the necessary ordinance amendments and updates to the City’s Master Fee Schedule to implement City Council’s approved changes. This item formalizes those changes by introducing the ordinance amending Chapter 12.30 Special Events on Public Property and Section 12.30.010 Special event regulations generally (Attachment 1) and
12.30.030 Special event approval and permit issuance (Attachment 2).
Fiscal Impact:
Implementation of the new special event permit program fees are expected to generate additional revenue for the City.
The fee revenues would be to offset staff time and administrative costs associated with reviewing, approving, and monitoring special event coordination. The total revenue generated would vary depending on the necessities of each approved event.

SECTION 2. Amendment. The City’s Master Fee Schedule is hereby amended as set forth in Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference)
SECTION 3. Coastal Act and Constitutional Findings. The Council hereby finds and declares the following:
a) Essential Nexus. There is an essential nexus between the special event fees and legitimate governmental interests including compensation for private use of public property, protection of public access within
65270.00020\44751051.1
the coastal zone, and mitigation of impacts to public infrastructure and pedestrian circulation.
b) Rough Proportionality. The amount of the fees are roughly proportional to the intensity and character of the encroachment use taking into account location, operational characteristics, and level of impact on public resources and City services.
c) Coastal Act Consistency. The fee structure is consistent with the Coastal Act because it supports orderly management of public rights-ofway, protects public access, and ensures that private use of coastal public land does not occur without appropriate
compensation or regulation.
d) Voluntary Use of City Property. The fee applies only to voluntary special events taking place on City Property, and is therefore a lawful charge for use of public land rather than an unconstitutional exaction.
e) No Unconstitutional Taking. The fee does not constitute an unconstitutional taking of private property because it satisfies the nexus and proportionality requirements, and is imposed in connection with discretionary approval of encroachments.
SECTION 4. Legislative Findings. The Council further finds that (a) the fees are a lawful exercise of the City’s police power and proprietary authority; (b) the fees are not a tax, but a charge for use of public property; and (c) the classifications created by this Resolution are rational and satisfies equal protection requirements.

Please add your education, employment, memberships, past activities, or other experience you feel qualifies you to serve on the Public Works Commission.
I am a Senior Scientist with the California State Water Resources Control Board in the Division of Water Rights where I lead complex water resource, infrastructure, and environmental compliance projects that require balancing regulatory requirements, public interests, and long-term resource management goals. Over the course of my career, I have worked extensively with local, state, federal, tribal, and community partners on issues involving water supply, flood management, environmental permitting, infrastructure planning, and climate resilience.
I have direct experience working with the California Coastal Commission and local governments on sea level rise vulnerability assessments, coastal hazard mapping, and adaptation planning. My professional background also includes experience interpreting and implementing environmental regulations, securing grant funding, managing multidisciplinary technical teams and consultants, and facilitating collaboration among diverse stakeholders. My public service experience also extends to education where I served as middle and high school science teacher for over eight years.
In my current role, I lead statewide initiatives involving multimillion-dollar budgets, complex public processes, and coordination among elected officials, agency executives, technical experts, and community stakeholders. This work has strengthened my ability to evaluate technical information, develop practical solutions, build consensus, and provide clear and objective recommendations to decision-makers.
I have a BS from the University of Oregon and Masters in Environmental Science from Loyola Marymount University, as well as a secondary teaching credential from California State University, Long Beach.
As a Hermosa Beach resident, I would welcome the opportunity to apply my experience in public infrastructure, regulatory compliance, climate adaptation, and collaborative problem-solving to help the City address infrastructure needs, sustainability goals, and long-term coastal resilience.
Do you foresee any scheduling problems that might cause you to miss meetings?

How long have you lived in Hermosa Beach?

I am interested in serving on the Public Works Commission because Hermosa Beach is entering a period of significant transition and opportunity. Like many coastal communities, the City faces growing challenges related to aging infrastructure, climate resilience, sea level rise, fiscal constraints, and evolving regulatory requirements. Meeting these challenges will require thoughtful long-term planning and strategic investment to ensure limited resources are directed where they will provide the greatest benefit to residents.
As a parent and longtime resident, I care deeply about preserving the unique character, beauty, and quality of life that make Hermosa Beach such a special place to live. I want to help ensure that the community my children enjoy today remains vibrant, resilient, and welcoming for future generations. This means not only maintaining critical infrastructure, but also planning proactively for future risks and opportunities so the City is well positioned to thrive decades from now.
Through my professional experience leading complex public-sector initiatives involving infrastructure, environmental compliance, water resources, climate adaptation, and stakeholder collaboration, I believe I can bring a valuable perspective to the Commission. I would be honored to contribute my skills in service to the City and work collaboratively with staff, fellow commissioners, and the community to help advance Hermosa Beach's long-term goals.

Filing ID:

2/4
I want to serve on the Public Works Commission because I care deeply about how a city feels to the people who live in it every day. Public works is not just infrastructure to me, it is safety, quality of life, and trust in local government made visible through streets that are safe, parks that are welcoming, and systems that quietly work when they are needed most.
I am motivated by the idea of contributing to something that has a direct and lasting impact on the community. I want to help ensure that projects are not only efficient and well-managed, but also thoughtful, reflecting the needs of residents, protecting the character of Hermosa Beach, and improving daily life in meaningful ways. I am especially drawn to the responsibility of balancing long-term planning with the real, immediate needs of the community.
Hermosa Beach has been my home, the home I love, and serving on this commission would allow me to give back in a practical and meaningful way. I bring a strong sense of accountability, attention to detail, and a collaborative mindset. I value listening first, understanding different perspectives, and working toward solutions that serve the greater good.
Ultimately, I wish to serve because I believe good public works quietly shape strong communities, and I would be honored to contribute to that work in Hermosa Beach.
Which duties and responsibilities of the Public Works Commission are important to you and why? What stands out to me most about the duties and responsibilities of the Public Works Commission is the opportunity to help guide how the city plans, prioritizes, and improves the infrastructure that residents rely on every day.
I am especially drawn to the responsibility of reviewing and advising on capital improvement projects, because these decisions shape the long-term safety, accessibility, and sustainability of Hermosa Beach.
I also value the commission’s role in providing community input and ensuring transparency in public works decisions. It is important to me that residents feel heard and understand how and why projects are prioritized.
Another responsibility that resonates with me is supporting maintenance and improvement of public facilities in a way that is efficient, sustainable, and fiscally responsible. I am mindful that public resources must be managed carefully, and I appreciate the balance between immediate needs and long-term investment.
Overall, what matters most to me is the opportunity to contribute to decisions that are not only technical, but deeply connected to community well-being.
Do you have any current or past obligations or responsibilities, which could be construed as a conflict of interest with the position you are applying for?

Response
No
Please add your education, employment, memberships, past activities, or other experience you feel qualifies you to serve on the Public Works Commission.
I bring a strong combination of education, professional experience, and communityminded perspective that I believe aligns well with the responsibilities of the Public Works Commission.
I hold an MBA, along with academic training in law and biotechnology, which has given me a multidisciplinary foundation in analysis, problem-solving, and structured decisionmaking. This background has helped me develop the ability to evaluate complex systems, consider both technical and regulatory perspectives, and make balanced, informed judgments.
Professionally, I work in regulatory and compliance within the dietary supplement industry, where I manage international requirements, product registrations, and coordination with multiple stakeholders, including manufacturers, technical teams, and regulatory authorities. This role requires attention to detail, accountability, and the ability to review technical documentation and ensure alignment with strict standards, skills that translate well to reviewing infrastructure projects, policies, and public works initiatives.
Beyond my professional work, I am very engaged in the Hermosa Beach community. I regularly participate in local events such as the HB Run Club and actively support and spend time in local businesses including Gitana, Stecca, Fritto Misto, Creme de la Crepe, Brothers Burritos, etc. Being part of these everyday community spaces has given me a deeper appreciation for the identity, character, and energy of Hermosa Beach.
I care deeply about the local economy and the well-being of the small businesses that make this city unique. I understand how closely public infrastructure, walkability, safety, and city planning are tied to the success of local businesses and the overall quality of life for residents. I am committed to preserving and strengthening the identity of Hermosa Beach while supporting thoughtful improvements that benefit both residents and the local business community.
I believe my professional background, analytical skills, and genuine connection to the community would allow me to contribute meaningfully to the Public Works Commission and support decisions that reflect both practical needs and the spirit of Hermosa Beach.
