Staff Report No. 26-AS-101
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council REAPPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FROM FY 2025-26 TO FY 2026-27, APPROVAL OF
RELATED REVENUE REVISIONS
(Finance Manager Henry Chao)
A) APPROVE
B) REAPPROPRIATE UNSPENT FUNDS FROM FY 2025-26 TO FY 2026-27 Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approve the budget reappropriation of certain unspent FY 2025-26 amounts to the FY 2026–27 Budget (Attachment 1).
Executive Summary:
General Fund FY 2025–26 Budget reappropriation requests total $88,791. Other City Fund budget reappropriation requests and related estimated revenue are highlighted in Attachment 1.
Staff recommends City Council reappropriate the FY 2025–26 Budget reappropriation requests to the current FY 2026–27 Budget.
Background:
Budget appropriations for FY 2025–26 expired on June 30, 2026. Equipment and supplies or services must have been received by June 30 in order to be charged to the FY 2025–26 Budget. Some departments have items or services that were budgeted in FY 2025–26 but were not delivered or completed by year end. In these cases, unspent amounts for those items or projects need to be reappropriated (carried over) to the next fiscal year budget, since they were not included in the FY 2026–27 Budget.
In the case of Capital Improvement Projects, unspent funds are added to any amounts appropriated in the FY 2025–26 Budget, as necessary. The amount of prior-year funding that would be left at year-end FY 2025–26 is estimated for FY 2026–27 Adopted Budget purposes. If expenditures are higher than estimated for FY 2025–26, the FY 2026–27 would be reduced. If expenditures are less in FY 2025–26, the amount for 2026–27 would be increased if the project is ongoing, as reflected in Attachment 1. Projects not completed in FY 2025–26 and not budgeted in FY 2026–27 would be carried forward into FY 2026–27.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 2
For reappropriated projects funded by grants, the estimated revenue would need to be budgeted as well. Conversely, if more funds are spent in the previous year, grant revenue estimated for FY 2026–27 would be reduced.
Analysis:
The FY 2026–27 budgetary accounts would be revised to reflect the attached reappropriations and related revenue. All changes reflected in this agenda item would be reflected in the September reports including Revenue, Expenditures, and Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Report by Project.
Fiscal Impact:
Appropriations in the General Fund would increase by $88,791 in the FY 2026–27 Budget due to the requested reappropriations. Total budget reappropriations from FY 2025-26 to FY 2026-27 would total $2,000,293, primarily due to adjustments for $1,426,915 in the 301 Capital Improvement Projects Fund and $931,667 in the 715 Equipment Replacement Fund offset by adjustments in other City funds.
There are sufficient funds available from the prior year to cover the reappropriation requests in the General Fund and other City funds.

Contract executed November 4, 2025. Pre-construction meeting occured October 29, 2025 with NTP issued and construction started on November 17, 2025. Construction has been completed except for court resurfacing at tennis and pickleball courts. Completion contractor for resurfacing tennis and pickleball courts was awarded at the May 26, 2026 Council meeting. Construction is anticipated to start in June 2026 and be completed in August 2026.Design modifications to account for unforeseen conditions have delayed the project and require additional contingency which were taken to Council at the January 27, 2026 meeting. Due to change in conditions on the tennis court and pickleball courts, staff is requesting proposals from other contractors to finish the court resurfacing on those courts. Basketball courts were opened for use on April 20, 2026.
Staff has selected a completion contractor to complete the tennis and pickleball court resurfacing which will be brought to the May 26, 2026 Council meeting for consideration of award; should Council award the contract, the construction is anticpated to be complete in August 2026. Seperately, staff is working with the original contractor to replace the windscreens on the pickleball and tennis courts with a more transparent material at no cost to the City. Relacement of windscreens has been complete as of June 25, 2026. Completion contractor started the work on the Pickleball and Tennis Court resurfacing on July 15, 2026 with estimated completion end of September 2026. Close out through November 2026.
This project will resurface and reconfigure the Kelly Courts at Clark Field and restore all four pickleball courts. The courts will be restriped and reconfigured and the lights and fencing relocated and updated to meet current design standards. 623 Pier Structural Inspection, Evaluation, and Repairs PB $3,700,010.00 Saad Malim X 07/24 11/27 Notice to Proceed was issued on August 12, 2025 for an on-call structural engineer to prepare design plans, specifications and estimates and obtain necessary permits for the high priority repairs.
Final design package is being finalized. Army Corp and Water Board have confirmed that the project will be exempt from requiring a permit. Coastal Commission has completed review and anticpates approving the project as a waiver at its June 2026 meeting. Coastal had required several supplemental studies that were completed by the City's biologist (Eelgrass Survey and Aquatic Habitat Assessment). Staff is received final approval from Coastal Commission on July 13, 2026. Staff is finalizing the bid package and anticpates advertising for construction in October 2026 with construction anticipated to start as soon as December 2026. Staff has completed the cost-benefit analysis for long term maintenance or rebuilding the pier and presented this to the City Council on March 24. Council directed staff to bring an item to PW Commission at a future date.
An emergency partial inspection and evaluation was performed in coordination with CIP 629 and CIP 660, the results of which identified high priority repairs which were completed through CIP 629.Following completion of construction of CIP 629 and CIP 660, a full above and below water structural inspection of the pier is required to meet requirements for marine structures. Based on this inspection, it is anticipated that additional pier structural repairs will be required primarily on the pier deck. This project will also include design and permitting. Construction funding will be identified as part of a future CIP. 635 Community Center Windows PB $325,000.00 John Oskoui X 07/25 06/28 City's consultant, Westgroupdesigns, completed preliminary needs assessment study for the windows and order of magnitude cost estimate has been developed for budgeting purposes. Staff will be working on developing a scope of services for the design and permitting phase and bringing an item to Planning Commission for further consideration of a historically appropriate window replacement.
This project will evaluate windows replacement for the entire facility to address deferred maintenance needs. The existing windows present safety and security concerns due to poor conditions. This project is currently funded for design and permitting only; additional funding will be required for installation once costs are further defined. 636 Civic Center Roofing (New) PB $410,000.00 Joshua Sexton X 08/26 05/27 Staff evaluating the scope of work in order to prepare a bid package. Staff has selected City's consultant Panacea Inc to test for hazardous materials involved in the scope of work. Staff are prepared to issue the NTP this week.

This project is to create a Real Time Crime Center (RTCC) for the City of Hermosa Beach. A RTCC is a technology-driven support center which uses state of the art technology to provide real time information to officers and detectives working in the field and investigating crimes that are reported.
X 143 PCH/Aviation Mobility Improvement Project SH $42,375.00 Brandon Araujo X 07/18 TBD The Project is temporarily paused. Metro has reassigned new project manager to oversee the project. The project remains on hold while Metro resolves consultant contract services agreement to further advance the project through the PA&ED phase. Staff worked closeley with Metro to seek additional funding through the South Bay Cities Council of Governments. Staff submitted a grant application for $3,000,000 in Measure M funds on January 16, 2025. Funding was approved by the SBCCOG Board and Metro. Metro is working on the draft scope of work and funding agreement with Caltrans. Following Caltrans review, staff will work with Metro on final review and bring funding agreement to City Council for consideration (anticipated late 2026 or early 2027). Staff is scheduling a meeting with Metro staff in September to refine the public outreach component of the scope of work.
The City has identified a number of complete street project elements that can be implemented to improve mobility, accessibility, and safety along the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) corridor in Hermosa Beach. These elements are described in the Project Study Report prepared by the City and Caltrans in 2015 and include: Traffic Signal Synchronization, Landscape Medians, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Improvements/Removal of Utility Impediments, Transit Access Enhancements, Pedestrian Enhancements, and Aesthetic Enhancements.Collectively, the improvements will address existing, near-term, and long-range future traffic conditions along this corridor by improving intersection operations, reducing instances of unsafe turning movements, creating a safe and more comfortable environment for pedestrians and transit riders, and improving the efficient movement of vehicles along the corridor.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
ADOPT RESOLUTION TO APPROVE MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT WITH CITY OF
MANHATTAN BEACH FOR STORM DRAIN INFRASTRUCTURE IN CITY ROW CEQA: The Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3) (common sense exemption) and/or 15301 (existing facilities), as the Agreement does not itself authorize construction beyond that already subject to environmental review by the City of Manhattan Beach.
(City Engineer Saad Malim)
A) ADOPT RESOLUTION BY TITLE
B) AUTHORIZE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE CONSTRUCTION AND
MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
___________________________________________________________________________ Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Adopt the attached resolution, approving an interagency easement and maintenance agreement with the City of Manhattan Beach for a storm drain diversion facility within the public right-of-way” (Attachment 1); and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the construction and maintenance agreement (Attachment 2) and the City Clerk to attest, subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
As part of the Beach Cities Watershed Management Program to minimize wet weather discharges and eliminate dry weather discharges into the Santa Monica Bay, the City of Manhattan Beach approved the Santa Monica Bay Stormwater Trash Treatment Project.
This project will significantly reduce contaminated runoff into the Santa Monica Bay from the City of Manhattan Beach and improve water quality in the Santa Monica Bay including Hermosa Beach. The project includes trash capture devices throughout Manhattan Beach including a location on 1st Street between Ocean Drive and the Strand at the border of Hermosa Beach. Due to existing utility conflicts on 1st St, the trash capture device was designed to encroach approximately 7 feet within Hermosa Beach right-of-way (ROW) requiring a construction and maintenance agreement for the project. As part of the agreement, Manhattan Beach will assume full responsibility for any potential damage to the encroachment area as well as for inspection and future maintenance of the infrastructure.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
Background:
The cities of Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, and Torrance, along with the Los Angeles County Flood Control District, have jointly developed a Watershed Management Program (the Beach Cities WMP) to comply with the 2012 Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board Storm Water Permit (LA MS4 Permit). The Beach Cities WMP identified capital improvement projects to minimize wet-weather discharges and eliminate dry-weather discharges into Santa Monica Bay, thereby reducing pollutants entering both water bodies and meeting the water quality-based effluent (outflow) limitations.
As part of the Beach Cities Watershed Management Program to minimize wet weather discharges and eliminate dry weather discharges into the Santa Monica Bay, the City of Manhattan Beach approved the Santa Monica Bay Stormwater Trash Treatment Project.
This project will significantly reduce contaminated runoff into the Santa Monica Bay from the City of Manhattan Beach and improve water quality in the Santa Monica Bay including Hermosa Beach.
Discussion:
The Manhattan Beach Santa Monica Bay Stormwater Trash Treatment Project includes trash capture devices throughout Manhattan Beach including a location on 1st Street between Ocean Drive and the Strand at the border of Hermosa Beach. The City of Manhattan Beach inquired about a construction staging permit for their 1st Street trash capture storm water diversion structure in March 2026 at which time Hermosa Beach staff noted that a portion of the infrastructure would encroach approximately 7 feet into Hermosa Beach ROW. Following on-site meetings and review of plans it was determined that relocating the project out of the Hermosa Beach ROW was not feasible due to existing utility conflicts and constraints to tie the trash capture diversion structure into the existing LA County storm drain line in the center of the street.
It was determined that a construction and maintenance agreement between the cities of Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach for the portion of the project in the Hermosa Beach ROW was required prior to construction. Public Works staff in conjunction with the City Attorney’s Office have been involved in the preparation and review of the draft agreement as well as review of the Manhattan Beach 1st Street Trash Capture Structure Site Plan/Exhibit (Attachment 3) and the Manhattan Beach 1st Street Trash Capture Structure Legal Description (Attachment 4).
As part of the agreement, Manhattan Beach, as the lead agency, will assume full responsibility of any potential damage to the encroachment area due to their use, as well as for inspection and future maintenance of the infrastructure and restoration of the property upon removal and/or relocation of the facility at a future time. If this agreement is approved, construction would start within the same week and is expected to last for
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3
approximately 5 weeks. Manhattan Beach and Clarke Contracting, the general contractor for this project, would distribute notices for the work prior to the start of work.
Environmental Analysis:
The Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3) (common sense exemption) and/or 15301 (existing facilities), as the Agreement does not itself authorize construction beyond that already subject to environmental review by the City of Manhattan Beach.
Options for Council Consideration:
Option 1: Adopt the resolution and authorize the execution of the construction and maintenance agreement (Recommended)
Will allow for the Cities of Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach to move forward with the agreement and for Manhattan Beach to complete construction of the project to improve water quality in Santa Monica Bay including Hermosa Beach.
Option 2: Do not approve staff’s recommendations
Will not allow for the completion of the project as proposed, possibly resulting in fines for Manhattan Beach for not complying with their portion of the Beach Cities Watershed Management Program in a timely manner.
Fiscal Impact:
There are no fiscal impacts associated with the recommended action.

Staff Report No. 26-AS-091
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
APPROVAL OF REVISIONS TO LEAD SPECIAL EVENTS AND FILMING
COORDINATOR JOB SPECIFICATION
(Human Resources Manager Tyler Cashman and Parks and Recreation Director Lisa Nichols)
APPROVE
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approve the retitling of the Lead Special Events and Filming Coordinator to Recreation Coordinator II and revisions to the job specification.
Executive Summary:
Class specifications are reviewed and updated periodically to ensure they accurately reflect the nature, level, and scope of work performed and remain relevant as organizational programs and services evolve. Staff recommends retitling the Lead Special Events and Filming Coordinator (LSEFC) classification to Recreation Coordinator II and revising the job specification (Attachment 1).
The proposed revisions are not to create a new position but to consolidate repetitive duties, replace highly specific and program-based language with broader language, and more clearly represent the position's role within the Department’s organizational structure.
The proposed revisions were presented to the Civil Service Board (Board) at its July 27, 2026, meeting. The Board recommended that the City Council approve the retitling of the LSEFC to Recreation Coordinator II and the proposed revisions to the job specification.
The motion passed by a 4-1 vote.
Past Board Action
Meeting Date Description
Civil Service
Board:
July 27, 2026
The Civil Service Board recommended City Council approval of the retitling of the LSEFC to Recreation Coordinator II and revisions to the job specification.
Background:
The existing LSEFC title and specification strongly emphasize the position’s responsibilities related to the Special Event Permit Program and film and still photography
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
permits. While these programs remain among those currently assigned to the position, a class specification should describe the fundamental nature, level, and scope of the work rather than function as an inventory of specific programs administered. Additionally, the class specification should be broad enough to encompass other programs and duties assigned to the position.
As programs and processes may be renamed, consolidated, modified, discontinued, or replaced, the revised Recreation Coordinator II specification uses broader and more standardized classification language to describe the same underlying functions, including program and permit administration, stakeholder coordination, agreement and report preparation, compliance monitoring, staffing coordination, public communication, and support of Department programs and activities.
This approach is intended to ensure the City does not need to revise the specification each time a specific program name or process changes.
Discussion:
Staff is proposing that the LSEFC be retitled to Recreation Coordinator II.
The proposed revisions do not create a new position or materially expand the scope of the existing position. The principal changes are the consolidation of repetitive duties, modernization of terminology, and replacement of highly specific language with broader classification language that captures the full range of assignments.
Attachment 2 compares the responsibilities in the current LSEFC job specification with the corresponding responsibilities in the proposed Recreation Coordinator II job specification. The Assessment column identifies whether the responsibility remains the same or has been consolidated or expressed using broader classification language.
As demonstrated in Attachment 2, the revised specification continues to reflect the same core functions: customer service; liaison and stakeholder coordination; program and permit administration; preparation of agreements, reports, and correspondence; compliance monitoring; staffing coordination; public communication; and support of Department activities. The revised specification consolidates and modernizes how these responsibilities are described but does not change the essential character or level of the position.
The proposed revisions also update the education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities requirements to better align with comparable classifications in the City's benchmark agencies and the current needs of the Parks and Recreation Department. The proposed changes have been reviewed and approved by the General & Supervisory – Teamsters' Bargaining Group.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended retitling and job specification revisions since the salary range for the position will remain unchanged.
The position was approved by the City Council as part of the City’s FY 2026-27 Adopted Budget under the current title, with a notation identifying the anticipated retitling of the position in the Parks and Recreational Department Budget Page.

Staff Report No. 26-AS-092
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
APPROVAL OF REVISIONS TO SPECIAL EVENTS AND FILMING COORDINATOR
JOB SPECIFICATION
(Human Resources Manager Tyler Cashman and Parks and Recreation Director Lisa Nichols)
APPROVE REVISIONS
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approve the retitling of the Special Events and Filming Coordinator to Recreation Coordinator I and revisions to the job specification.
Executive Summary:
Class specifications are reviewed and updated periodically to ensure they accurately reflect the nature, level, and scope of work performed and remain relevant as organizational programs and services evolve. Staff recommends retitling the Special Events and Filming Coordinator (SEFC) classification to Recreation Coordinator I and revising the job specification (Attachment 1).
The proposed revisions are not to create a new position but to consolidate repetitive duties, replace highly specific and program-based language with broader language, and more clearly represent the position's role within the Department’s organizational structure.
The proposed revisions were presented to the Civil Service Board (Board) at its July 27, 2026 meeting. The Board recommended that the City Council approve the retitling of the SEFC to Recreation Coordinator I and the proposed revisions to the job specification. The motion passed by a 4-1 vote.
Past Board Action
Meeting Date Description
Civil Service
Board:
July 27, 2026
The Civil Service Board recommended City Council approval of the retitling of the SEFC to Recreation Coordinator I and revisions to the job specification.
Background:
The existing SEFC title and specification strongly emphasize the position’s responsibilities to the Special Event Permit Program and filming and still photography
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
permits. While these programs remain among those currently assigned to the position, a class specification should describe the fundamental nature, level, and scope of the work rather than function as an inventory of specific programs administered. Additionally, the class specification should be broad enough to encompass other programs and duties assigned to the position.
As programs and processes may be renamed, consolidated, modified, discontinued, or replaced, the revised Recreation Coordinator I specification uses broader and more standardized classification language to describe the same underlying functions, including program and permit administration, stakeholder coordination, agreement and report preparation, compliance monitoring, staffing coordination, public communication, and support of Department programs and activities.
This approach is intended to ensure the City does not need to revise the specification each time a specific program name or process changes.
Discussion:
Staff is proposing that the SEFC be retitled to Recreation Coordinator I.
The proposed revisions do not create a new position or materially expand the scope of the existing position. The principal changes are the consolidation of repetitive duties, modernization of terminology, and replacement of highly specific language with broader classification language that captures the full range of assignments.
Attachment 2 compares the responsibilities in the current SEFC job specification with the corresponding responsibilities in the proposed Recreation Coordinator I job specification. The Assessment column identifies whether the responsibility remains the same or has been consolidated or expressed using broader classification language.
As demonstrated in Attachment 2, the revised specification continues to reflect the same core functions: customer service; liaison and stakeholder coordination; program and permit administration; preparation of agreements, reports, and correspondence; compliance monitoring; staffing coordination; public communication; and support of Department activities. The revised specification consolidates and modernizes how these responsibilities are described but does not change the essential character or level of the position.
The proposed revisions also update the education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities requirements to better align with comparable classifications in the City's benchmark agencies and the current needs of the Parks and Recreation Department. The proposed changes have been reviewed and approved by the General & Supervisory – Teamsters' Bargaining Group.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended retitling and job specification revisions since the salary range for the position will remain unchanged.
The position was approved by the City Council as part of the City’s FY 2026-27 Adopted Budget under the current title, with a notation identifying the anticipated retitling of the position in the Parks and Recreational Department Budget Page.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
APPROVAL OF A SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH WILLDAN ENGINEERING TO INCREASE CONTRACT
AUTHORITY FOR ON-CALL DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW AND STAFF
AUGMENTATION SERVICES
(Community Development Director Alison Becker)
A) APPROVE AMENDMENT
B) AUTHORIZE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AND CITY CLERK TO ATTEST Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve a second amendment to the professional services agreement with Willdan Engineering to increase the September 2025 through August 2026 spending limit by $50,000, from $450,000 to $500,000; increase the full-term notto-exceed amount from $2,250,000 to $2,300,000; and align subsequent spending periods with the City's July-June fiscal year using prorated transition and final partial-period limits, without changing the scope of services, rates, or August 30, 2030 expiration date (Attachment 1); and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest the attached second amendment subject to approval by the City Attorney.
Executive Summary:
Willdan Engineering provides plan review and temporary staffing services to help the Community Development Department maintain permit processing during staff vacancies.
For several months during the initial contract term, Willdan was providing two temporary staff members to provide adequate staff support for daily operations. As a result, estimated costs for services already provided during September 2025 through August 2026 exceed the existing $450,000 spending limit for that contract period. Staff recommend increasing that period's limit by $50,000, to $500,000. The same $50,000 increase would raise the maximum compensation over the entire agreement from $2,250,000 to $2,300,000. Existing departmental budget funding will support the costs; no additional budget appropriation is requested.
This incident also revealed a difference between the contract's annual spending period and the City's budget year. The contract period ran from September through August, while the City's fiscal year runs from July through June. Staff proposes aligning future contract
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 4
spending periods with the fiscal year to simplify monitoring and help prevent this issue from recurring.
The $450,000 annual limit would remain unchanged for full fiscal years. The September 2026 through June 2027 transition period would have a prorated $375,000 limit, followed by three full fiscal years at $450,000 each and a final partial-period limit of $75,000 for July 1 through August 30, 2030. Together with the $500,000 first-period limit, these amounts total $2,300,000. Changing the periods would not add to the proposed $50,000 increase. The scope of services, rates, and August 30, 2030 expiration date would remain unchanged.
Background:
On September 9, 2025, City Council approved a professional services agreement with Willdan Engineering for on-call development plan review and staff augmentation services, with annual compensation not to exceed $200,000. Willdan provides technical plan review and temporary staffing support to supplement City staff as needed.
On March 24, 2026, during the midyear budget review, City Council increased the Community Development Department’s Contract Services budget by $157,000 to support continued services through June 30, 2026. The increase was supported by salary savings from a vacant Associate Planner position and a budgeted intern position that would not be filled. This action provided additional departmental funding for contracted services but did not change the spending limit in the Willdan agreement.
On April 14, 2026, staff presented the first amendment to the Willdan agreement in response to that budget action. A separate amendment was necessary because the department’s available funding and the contract’s spending limit are separate authorizations. The amendment increased Willdan’s annual contract limit from $200,000 to $450,000 and established a maximum of $2,250,000 over the full agreement term. It became effective April 22, 2026.
The current request would increase the first-period spending limit and the full-term maximum by the same $50,000 and align future spending periods with the budget calendar. July and August 2026 services would remain in the existing first contract period.

Midyear Budget Review to add $157,000 for contracted services through June 30, 2026, supported by vacancy savings. Did not change the Willdan contract limit.
City Council:
April 14, 2026
Approved First Amendment to Increase the annual Willdan contract limit from $200,000 to $450,000 and the full-term maximum to $2,250,000. Effective April 22, 2026.
Analysis:
Willdan provided technical plan review and temporary staffing assistance to address staff vacancies and maintain development review services. The proposed first-period adjustment concerns services already performed within the existing scope of the agreement; it does not add services or change rates.
Estimated costs for services already provided during September 2025 through August 2026 exceed the $450,000 period limit. The proposed $50,000 increase would raise that limit to $500,000, including amounts already paid, and increase the full-term maximum from $2,250,000 to $2,300,000. Fiscal-year alignment would not reassign July and August 2026 services to a different contract spending period.
The transition period would run from September 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.
Prorating the $450,000 annual limit for these ten months produces a $375,000 limit. Each full fiscal year from July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2030, would retain a $450,000 limit.
The final partial period, July 1 through August 30, 2030, would have a $75,000 limit, based on two-twelfths of the annual amount. The agreement would not be extended.
Aligning the annual spending periods with the budget year would simplify reconciliation and help staff identify a need for further Council action earlier. Staff would continue to monitor available budget funding, each period's spending limit, and the full-term maximum separately. The proposed fiscal-year provision would be reviewed with BBK and Willdan before execution.
The limits total $2,300,000: $500,000 for the first period, $375,000 for the transition, $1,350,000 for the three full fiscal years, and $75,000 for the final partial period. The firstperiod and full-term increases are the same at $50,000, not separate additions. Charges would be assigned once, based on when services were performed, regardless of invoice or payment date. All periods remain subject to the full-term maximum, and unused authority would not increase the later period's stated limit.
Options for Council Consideration:
1. Approve the proposed second amendment. This would increase the first-period spending limit to $500,000 and the full-term maximum to $2,300,000 and align
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 4
subsequent periods with the fiscal year using prorated transition and final partialperiod limits. Existing budget funding would support the first-period costs. The scope of services, rates, and August 30, 2030, expiration date would remain unchanged.
2. Defer the amendment and provide further direction to staff. The existing period limits and contract periods would remain in effect. Deferral may require a pause in Willdan plan review services until the matter is resolved, potentially delaying affected applications.
Fiscal Impact:
The proposed amendment would increase the first-period spending limit by $50,000, from $450,000 to $500,000, align subsequent spending periods with the City's July-June fiscal year and increase the full-term not-to-exceed amount by the same $50,000, from $2,250,000 to $2,300,000.
The $375,000 September to June 2027 transition limit, three $450,000 full July to June fiscal-year limits, and $75,000 final July-August partial-period limit, together with the firstperiod limit, total $2,300,000. Fiscal-year alignment would not increase that amount.
Sufficient funding is available within the existing Community Development Contract Services budget. Funding accounts are General Fund accounts 001-4101-4201 (Planning) and 001-4201-4201 (Building). Application, plan check, and permit fee revenues help offset plan review costs. No additional budget appropriation is requested.

City of Hermosa Beach
Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its own terms services similar to those terminated.
INDEMNIFICATION. CONSULTANT shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by CITY (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), and hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, and cost (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with CONSULTANT's negligent 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. The CONSULTANT shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the CITY (and its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers) covered by this indemnity obligation. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.
For all services that include, as defined by Cal Civ Code § 2782.8, design professional services, all provisions, clauses, covenants, and agreements contained in, collateral to, or affecting any such services, and amendments thereto, that purport to indemnify, including the duty and the cost to defend, the indemnitee by a design professional against liability for claims against the indemnitee, are unenforceable, except to the extent that the claims against the indemnitee arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the design professional. In no event shall the cost to defend charged to the design professional exceed the design professional’s proportionate percentage of fault.
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 CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONSULTANT agree that CONSULTANT will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which it is 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, 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 Docusign Envelope ID: 38752416-ACCB-44A9-AAF8-AC428A71CB32
City of Hermosa Beach
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 CONTRACTOR for City.
2. General Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.
3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONSULTANT arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.
4. Professional Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from the CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by the CONSULTANT or by its employees, subcontractors, or subconsultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-peroccurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.
B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in Docusign Envelope ID: 38752416-ACCB-44A9-AAF8-AC428A71CB32
City of Hermosa Beach
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 Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.
D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the CITY.
At the CITY’s option, the CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.
E. The CONSULTANT shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein. Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.
F. Failure on the part of the CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.
G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the Consultant (as the named insured) should Consultant fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. Consultant understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by Consultant as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should City pay the SIR or deductible on Consultant’s behalf upon the Consultant’s failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, City may include such amounts as damages in any action against Consultant for Docusign Envelope ID: 38752416-ACCB-44A9-AAF8-AC428A71CB32
City of Hermosa Beach
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.
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.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO MODIFY THE ANNUAL P.A.R.K. AFTER SCHOOL
PROGRAM FEE
CEQA: The proposed resolution is not a project under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4) and is exempt from CEQA under Sections 15301 and 15061(b)(3), with none of the exceptions in Section 15300.2 Applicable
(Parks and Recreation Director Lisa Nichols)
ADOPT RESOLUTION BY TITLE
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution to modify the annual P.A.R.K. After School Program fee.
Executive Summary:
At its July 28, 2026, meeting, City Council approved modifying the annual P.A.R.K. After School Program fee from $1,900 to $3,150, with annual cost-of-living adjustments in future calendar years rounded to the nearest $10. Staff has prepared a resolution (Attachment 1) to update the City’s Master Fee Schedule to implement the approved fee modifications. Based on projected enrollment, the updated fee is anticipated to allow the program to operate at full cost recovery.
Background:
At its July 28, 2026, meeting, City Council approved modifying the annual P.A.R.K. After School Program fee from $1,900 to $3,150 with annual cost-of-living adjustments in future calendar years, rounded to the nearest $10.

City Council:
July 28, 2026
City Council approved the Commission’s recommendation to update the annual registration fee for the P.A.R.K. After School Program to $3,150 and additionally, annual cost-of-living adjustments in future calendar years, rounded to the nearest $10.
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 P.A.R.K. After School Program fee to $3,150 (Attachment 1).
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 P.A.R.K. After School Program fee to $3,150 per participant is expected to generate an increase of $65,750 in annual revenue from $76,000 to $141,750. This is based on an anticipated enrollment of 45 students annually. Staff will program the estimated revenue budget as part of the FY 2026-27 Mid-Year Budget Review.
Estimated annual operating costs will remain the same, which is approximately $137,526 including staffing, supplies, and administrative oversight.
Based on the projected enrollment and the fee adjustment, the program would operate at full cost recovery.

RESOLUTION NO. RES-26-XXXX
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE CITY’S MASTER FEE
SCHEDULE TO INCREASE THE P.A.R.K. AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
FEE AND FINDING THAT THE ACTION IS NOT A PROJECT UNDER
THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
WHEREAS, the City of Hermosa Beach (“City”) is authorized to regulate and establish fees for public programs, services, and products by resolution pursuant to the California Constitution (Section 7 to Article XI, and Sections 1(e)(2) and 1(e)(4) to Article XIIIC) and California Government Code (Sections 66014, 66016, and 66018); and
WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City Council (“Council”) to recover costs reasonably borne in providing City services pursuant to Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 2.64.010; and
WHEREAS, the City conducted a Recreation Fee Study (“Study”) of local cities’ fees related to after school programs, which was presented to the Council at its regular meeting of July 28, 2026; and
WHEREAS, the Study demonstrates that the City’s existing fees are lower than some neighboring jurisdictions and do not adequately account for the City’s administrative and oversight costs; and
WHEREAS, the Council at its regular meeting of July 28, 2026, directed staff to prepare an increase to the P.A.R.K. After School Program fee, with annual cost-of-living adjustments in future fiscal years rounded to the nearest ten dollars ($10); and
WHEREAS, management of the P.A.R.K. After School Program requires staff time and resources; and
WHEREAS, the proposed fee increase is intended to recover and does not exceed the City’s reasonable administrative and oversight costs, and provides a fair and regionally consistent fee structure; and
65270.00020\45354079.1
WHEREAS, there is a reasonable relationship between the registration fee for the P.A.R.K. After School Program and the burdens imposed on the City by management of the P.A.R.K. After School Program (including staff time, facility use, and program materials), and that the amount of the fee has been calculated based upon the City’s estimated reasonable costs of providing such specific governmental services; and
WHEREAS, the increase of the P.A.R.K. After School Program fee constitutes a charge imposed for a specific government service provided directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged and does not exceed the reasonable costs to the City of providing such service, and therefore the fee is not a tax pursuant to the California Constitution (Section 1(e)(2) to Article XIIIC); and WHEREAS, the City has made available data regarding the cost or estimated cost of providing the service for the fee at least ten (10) days before the public meeting held on September 22, 2026, pursuant to the California Government Code Sections 66016 and 66018; and
WHEREAS, the Council desires to amend the City’s Master Fee Schedule to adopt the increase of the P.A.R.K. After School Program fee.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Incorporation of Recitals. The above recitals are true and correct, and are incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 2. Amendment. Exhibit D of the City’s Master Fee Schedule “Recreation Facilities and Fees” is hereby amended to increase the existing P.A.R.K. After School Program fee to three thousand one hundred fifty dollars ($3,150) annually for a five-day program, with annual cost-of-living adjustments in future fiscal years rounded to the nearest ten dollars ($10). The annual cost-ofliving adjustments shall be effective as of July 1 of each year starting on July 1, 2027.
SECTION 3. Findings. The Council finds that the fee set forth in the Master Fee Schedule does not exceed the reasonable costs to the City of providing the applicable service, as demonstrated in the Study.
65270.00020\45354079.1
SECTION 4. California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). The Council finds that this Resolution is not a project subject to CEQA pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because it is an organizational or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
SECTION 5. Severability. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications; and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable.
SECTION 6. Certification. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Resolution; cause it to be entered into the City’s book of original Resolutions; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and, within fifteen (15) days after the Resolution’s passage and adoption, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.
SECTION 7. Effective Date. This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.

through a two-year phased approach, followed by annual costof-living adjustments in subsequent calendar years, rounded to the nearest $10.
Discussion:
Staff prepared an update to the City’s Master Fee Schedule to implement City Council’s approved fee modifications by drafting a resolution establishing a two-year phased increase to the weekly Valley Park Summer Day Camp fee (Attachment 1). The fee would increase to $235 for Hermosa Beach residents and $250 for non-residents in the first calendar year, and to $255 for Hermosa Beach residents and $275 for non-residents in the second calendar year, followed by annual cost-of-living adjustments in subsequent calendar years, rounded to the nearest $10.
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:
The phased fee adjustment for Valley Park Summer Day Camp would increase the weekly registration fee from $185 to $235 for Hermosa Beach residents and from $195 to $250 for non-residents in the first calendar year, generating an estimated $25,725 increase in annual registration revenue, from $93,100 to $118,825. In the second calendar year, the weekly registration fee would increase to $255 for Hermosa Beach residents and $275 for non-residents, generating an estimated $36,750 increase in annual registration revenue from the current level of $93,100, for total annual revenue of $129,850. These estimates are based on anticipated enrollment levels of 70 participants weekly. Staff will review and budget the estimated revenue increases as part of the applicable Mid-Year Budget Review.
Estimated annual direct program operating costs are approximately $77,294 and are not expected to change. Under the current and phased fee structures, the program achieves full cost recovery. The phased fee adjustment would increase the revenue generated above direct operating costs while remaining competitive with comparable programs offered by neighboring agencies.

CEQA: Determine that the removal and replacement of the Surfers Walk of Fame Plaques Project (“Project”) as part of CIP 623 is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301 (Parks and Recreation Manager Brian Sousa)
DISCUSS AND PROVIDE DIRECTION
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Select the replacement and relocation option for the Surfers Walk of Fame inductee plaques from the options outlined in this Staff Report; or
2. Provide an alternate replacement and relocation option not presented in this Staff Report for staff to evaluate and return to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission for review prior to City Council review.
Executive Summary:
At its March 24, 2026, meeting, staff presented to City Council Capital Improvement Project (CIP) 623 regarding municipal pier structural inspection and evaluation, including replacement and relocation of the Surfers Walk of Fame (SWOF) plaques. City Council then directed staff to gather stakeholder input and present the replacement and relocation options to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission (Commission).
Background:
The SWOF program was founded in 2003 by local businessman Roger Bacon. The program consisted of an application for individual candidate consideration, selection from a committee of stakeholders, culminating with an induction ceremony celebrated annually in downtown Hermosa Beach. The City worked alongside Roger Bacon from 2003 to 2007 until the City elected to take full responsibility over the event entirely.
Since 2003, the annual SWOF Induction Ceremony has incorporated installation of dedication plaques for inductees on the Pier until 2020 when the program was stalled due to the pandemic and concerns regarding the installation method, safety effects, and potential structural impacts to the Pier.

At its March 24, 2026, meeting, City Council directed staff to bring the SWOF plaques replacement and relocation options to the Commission for further review, including stakeholder input.
On May 27, 2026, staff met with a total of nine members of the SWOF community, including past inductees, judges, and committee members, to review the current status of the Pier program and replacement and relocation options for the plaques. Attachment 1 is the presentation provided at the meeting.
Furthermore, to gather input from the stakeholders unavailable to attend the meeting, staff initiated a survey of all past SWOF inductees requesting their feedback on what preferred option they would recommend for the potential relocation. Staff received a total of 14 responses identified in Table 1 below.
Table 1: Inductee Survey Results Graph
At its June 2, 2026, meeting, staff presented the replacement and relocation options and the stakeholders’ input to the Commission. The Commission recommended Option 1 as the immediate solution while considering any of the variations or replacement and relocation presented in Option 3 (A-C) for the long-term placement of the program, and to consider incorporating a digital tour component. The options are further detailed in Attachment 3.
On July 8, 2026, staff met with the board of the community organization, the South Bay Boardriders Club (SBBRC), to discuss the options outlined in Attachment 3. Following the presentation, all members present at the meeting supported staff’s recommendation, Option 1, replacing and relocating the Surfers Walk of Fame plaques as part of CIP 623

Discussion:
Currently, there are 106 individual SWOF inductees and 60 bronze plaques installed, each measuring 15”x12”, on the Pier deck honoring South Bay surf legends inducted into the City’s SWOF from 2003 to 2019. The plaques (Attachment 2) display the inductee, the year of induction, the category in which they were inducted, and include a brief biography, with the exception of four plaques which include many names for inductees grouped together in the Pioneer category. Each year, plaques were installed in advance of the SWOF Induction Ceremony recognizing the year’s inductees, until the process was halted in 2020. Since then, the City has not installed plaques for those inducted into the SWOF in 2020 and 2023 through 2026. There were no inductees in 2021 or 2022 due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. 6 plaques are currently missing and have been temporarily replaced with concrete to prevent tripping hazards. Ongoing maintenance, including the repair and replacement of plaques, as well as instances of theft, has been a recurring challenge.
Additionally, plaques are deteriorating, and many are becoming illegible (Attachment 1).
Another concern is the lack of chronological order of the plaques on the Pier deck (Attachment 2). The original installation of the plaques required chase cutting through the concrete deck panel surface to install the plaques flush with the walking surface. Any cutting into the deck damages the concrete panels since there is no topping slab present.
These modifications have compromised the protective cover over the reinforcing steel in the panels and other exposed elements and result in water ingress, which can lead to corrosion and more rapid deterioration of the structure.
Additional structural observations conducted by the Public Works Department contractor via CIP 623 in February 2026 identified several plaques were depressed by about ¾” in the center, indicating the sonotubes (hollow tubes inside the deck panels) may have been punctured. Further investigations are needed to determine the extent of damage at these locations, which will require specialized repair beyond what had been originally
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 8
anticipated. The waterproof treatment at many of the plaques has been compromised at several locations or missing all together. All polymers used for sealing have a limited lifespan when exposed to sunlight and ultraviolet radiation, and even if sealed properly, cracked edges may persist. Once the sealant deteriorates and cracks, water ingress becomes inevitable. Embedded plaques on the Pier’s concrete deck are no longer advisable.
Furthermore, staff are recommending removal of the existing plaques and replacing them at another location so that the existing locations can be properly repaired, to reduce further deterioration of the deck panels and minimize maintenance needs. The timeline is tentative to conclude this work by the end of the year.
Relocation Options:
Staff has received various ideas for potential replacement and relocation options for the SWOF plaques from community stakeholders (Attachment 3), including:
Option 1: Railing Mounted Plaque (staff recommended immediate option):
As presented at the March 24, 2026, City Council Meeting, new stainless plaques could be installed on top of the wooden hand railings along each side of the Pier (Attachment 4). Based on staff research and vendor recommendation, 316 marine-grade stainless steel is more durable than the current bronze in a coastal environment, offering greater resistance to corrosion from salt air, moisture, and sun exposure, which will help ensure long-term legibility and reduce maintenance needs and can be replaced at a lower cost at approximately $235 per plaque.
Instead of installing a plaque for each individual inductee, as was done prior to 2020, staff recommends plaques be grouped to represent each induction year, with 2–3 plaques used in years with many inductees, reducing the total number of plaques to about 30. This option preserves the “walk of fame” feel along the Pier, provides ample space for future plaques, and maintains proximity to the ocean.
Staff recommends this as the most practical option for immediate resumption of plaque installations; replacement of missing plaques; and installation of plaques not recognized for the 2020, 2023, 2024, and 2025 inductees and future years. Option 2: Greg Noll Statue
The first idea proposed by the stakeholders was to establish a commemorative monument or statue for surf legend and 2003 SWOF inductee and charter member Greg Noll. In 1965, Greg opened a 20,000 square foot factory in Hermosa Beach – the biggest board-building operation in the world at the time. Noll went on to become a big-wave surfing pioneer and master longboard shaper. A famous Greg Noll’s photo, which would be depicted as the statue design, is widely considered an iconic surf image of all time. The suggested location would be Pier Plaza, with mention of the west end where the Plaza meets the Strand, or near Loreto Plaza.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 5 of 8
Names would be etched into the base pedestal, or name plates would be installed annually.
Option 3: Schumacher Plaza:
In 2019, when concerns were presented to members of the surfing community regarding the potential structural impacts to the Pier, staff began considering two other options that were discussed with former inductees on Schumacher Plaza:
o Option 3A: Build a lighted wall for the plaques surrounding the Tim Kelly Statue, utilizing the existing cement base. The wall would be roughly 58 feet long, with a height to be determined, but positioned below average eye level to avoid obstructing the beach view. The plaques would include only the inductee’s name, the category under which they were inducted, and the year, with the size to be determined but significantly smaller than the Pier deck plaques. Another option is developing surfboard decorative monuments (five), each representing each category, as an alternative, with the inductee year and name etched into the surface. Concerns with this option wouldn’t necessarily preserve the “walk of fame” feel. o Option 3B: Plaques would be placed into the ground surrounding the Tim Kelly Statue, either forming a full circle around the statue or a half circle in front. The plaques would include only the inductee’s name, the category under which they were inducted, and the year, with the size to be determined but significantly smaller than the Pier deck plaques. However, there were concerns with this location. The Tim Kelly Statue was made possible through donations from friends and local lifeguards and was specifically dedicated to honoring the legacy of service through the Los Angeles County Fire Department’s Lifeguard Division. Using this site for a separate surfers’ recognition program could detract from the statue’s original purpose and might be seen as conflating two distinct programs.
When presenting such options to the stakeholders, two other options were presented to staff at the Schumacher Plaza location, including:
Option 3C: designate SWOF inductee plaques to be installed on the ground on the plaza, replacing the bricks around the City seal. Option 3D: members of the Commission recommended the top of Schumacher Plaza wall as a potential relocation space.
Option 4: Surfboard monuments on the Strand Wall:
This proposal would be located North of the Pier on top of the Strand wall in the Commercial Zone. This would incorporate surfboard decorative monuments (five), each representing each category, as an alternative, with the inductee year and name etched into the surface. Concerns with this option wouldn’t necessarily preserve the “walk of fame” feel.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 6 of 8
Option 5: Pier Plaza:
o Option 5A: designate SWOF inductee plaques to be installed on the ground on Pier Plaza, running chronologically east-to-west, replacing portions of the brick trim surfacing.
o Option 5B: combine Option 2, designating a Greg Noll statue adjacent to SWOF inductee plaques to be installed on the ground on Pier Plaza. Option 6: Community Center:
This concept would establish a master SWOF plaque outside the Community Center exterior wall near the Dewey Weber Statue. All inductees would be presented in order of the year, category, and name. Concerns of this option is this would take the program away from the beach and potentially run out of room, resulting in multiple plaques being incorporated every 10-20 years.
Potential impacts of Options 3C, 3D and 5 are the frequency of special events and Pier Plaza Promotions held on Pier Plaza- west end near the Strand and Schumacher Plaza.
Table 2 below includes the total number of special events and Pier Plaza Promotions that utilized Schumacher Plaza in 2025 and 2026.

Year
Schumacher Plaza 11 4 2025
Pier Plaza 13 1 2025
Schumacher Plaza 9 1 2026
Pier Plaza 12 1 2026
These activities could temporarily limit visibility of or access to the SWOF plaques if Option 3C, 3D, or 5 were selected for visitors and community members during events and promotional activities.
Environmental Analysis:
For CEQA purposes, the City has evaluated the near-term High-Priority Repairs and the removal and replacement of the Surfer’s Walk of Fame Plaques in the railing together as a single project. The current Project is exempt from CEQA under the Existing Facilities Exemption identified in CEQA Guidelines section 15301. The plaque removal consists of repair and maintenance to the existing Pier, and replacing the plaques on the railing is a minor alteration of the existing Pier. If Council selects the other options with respect to the plaque replacement, the existing facilities exemption still applies because those options involve minor alterations of the existing Schumacher Plaza and Pier Plaza, with the exception of the Greg Noll plaque which would have to be further determined.

Options for Consideration:
Staff recommends City Council determine the preferred replacement and relocation option for the SWOF inductee plaques, taking into consideration the options summarized below:
1. Option 1, staff’s recommendation, which consists of replacing and relocating the SWOF plaques as part of CIP 623 onto the Pier railing and considering one of the other options presented as the future long-term placement of the program. Project funding for Option 1 through CIP 623 is currently available, providing prompt continuation of the program, which could continue in a way that eliminates structural damage to the Pier. The recommendation was supported by the Commission as an immediate solution and the Commission recommended City Council to consider Option 3, Schumacher Plaza, any project within the area, for the long-term placement of the program, and consider incorporating a digital tour component. This option was also unanimously supported by the SBBRC as the immediate solution and received support as the second-choice option by the 14 SWOF inductees who participated in the survey shown in Table 1 of the staff report.
2. The nine SWOF stakeholders present during the May 27 in-person stakeholder meeting unanimously did not support Option 1 and the majority recommended:
a. Option 2 as their preferred option; and
i. The stakeholders have since received authorization from the late Greg Knoll’s family to use his name, image, and likeness to construct the proposed statue.
b. Option 3C is their secondary option.
c. Moreover, although not full consensus was received, half of the group also recommended Option 5B as a primary option.
Under any option for consideration, the plaques currently installed in the Pier deck would be removed by the end of the year 2026. The City would offer these plaques to the inductees or their families, and any plaques not claimed would be offered to the Hermosa Beach Museum for preservation.
It is likely that, other than Option 1, any other option would require private funding to develop and complete the project, which could take an undetermined extended amount of time to complete. Additionally, the City’s Municipal Naming, Monument, and Sponsorship Program would likely apply to Options 2-6 (Attachment 5).
Lastly, regardless of the selected option, staff would investigate a concept idea of incorporating a virtual component into the SWOF. This could include installing a general main plaque on the Schumacher Plaza wall detailing the history of the SWOF program and a QR scannable code which would direct visitors to an online page. The digital version
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 8 of 8
would include inductee bios, photo gallery, and other historical information and connections to surf culture and Hermosa Beach. This concept was also supported by the Commission.
Fiscal Impact:
Staff’s recommendation of Option 1 to replace and relocate the SWOF plaques is currently budgeted as part of CIP 623 Pier Structural Repairs. The associated costs would be absorbed as part of the CIP 623 budget.
It is likely that, other than Option 1, any other option would require private funding to develop and complete the project, which could take an undetermined extended amount of time to complete.

3 NAMING OF PUBLIC FACILITIES + OUTDOOR SPACE
Purpose
To establish formal policies as a guide to the City Council in considering appropriate names for city-owned land, buildings, and facilities (City Asset); whether, and under what circumstances, such land, building, and facilities should be named or renamed in honor of an individual; and the duration of Naming rights of City-owned land, buildings, and facilities.
This policy is in place to ensure the following:
• The Naming of public facilities and outdoor space enhances a sense of community within the city.
• Parks and recreational areas are easily identified and located. • Names given are consistent with the values and characteristics of the City of Hermosa Beach.
• Assure the quality of the title/name, so that it will serve the purpose of the city in a permanent manner.
• Encourage public participation and input in order to fully represent the best interest of the area affected; and
• Encourage and recognize the dedication of lands, or Donations by individuals or groups.
4 Guiding Principles
In considering proposals for the Naming or Renaming of a city-owned public facility or outdoor space, the city will consider whether the proposed name will:
• Engender a strong positive image consistent with the city’s goals and values;
• Be appropriate relative to the City Asset’s location and/or history; • Have historical, cultural, or social significance for future generations; • Commemorate places, people, or events that are of continued importance to the city, community, region, or state;
• Have symbolic value that transcends its ordinary meaning or use and enhances the character and identity of the City Asset;
• Names that have recognizable geographic, topographic, or historical significance associated with Hermosa Beach. In assessing this type of name, the City Council will take into consideration the recommendations from different bodies such as the Planning Commission or the Hermosa Beach Historical Society.
• Have broad public support; and
• Not result in the excessive commercialization of the City Asset.
Guidelines
The City Council will consider requests for the Naming of public facilities and outdoor space whether submitted by City Council members, city staff, city agencies, Civic Organizations, or by members of the community.
City-owned land, buildings and facilities may be named in honor of persons who have served the nation, the State of California and/or the City of Hermosa Beach in an exceptional and distinguished manner; and where such action is warranted by a contribution or service which is deemed to be of major significance. In assessing this honor, the City Council will take into consideration the recommendations from different bodies such as the applicable City Commission(s) or local interest groups.
City-owned land, buildings and facilities may be named after individuals or families who have donated the land or funds for a capital project, particularly if such Naming is set forth as a condition of the Donation. Additionally, the City Council may approve the Naming of city-owned land, buildings or facilities based on an organization or individual’s monetary contribution to the city for that purpose. The funds from that contribution may be used for any purpose deemed appropriate by the City Council unless there is a specified use as a condition of
5 the contribution. The duration of the name is on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the City Council unless otherwise set forth as a condition of the contribution approved by the Council.
The names of city-owned land, buildings and facilities shall not normally be named in honor of individuals when they have previously been named for another individual. However, if the Council deems it appropriate, they may vary from the guideline on a case-by-case basis.
When appropriate, parks, trails and facilities can be named after predominant geographical or physical features of the land. These may include natural features or man-made features. Different sections of public facilities and outdoor space may carry names that differ from that of the overall park or facility. This may include the Naming of individual items in a park or facility such as a meeting room.
However, the guidelines outlined in this guide shall still apply in the selection and adoption of the name.
Review Procedure
Consideration of requests for the Naming of public facilities and outdoor space will include the following:
1. Submittal Request. Letter requests for Naming of City-owned land, buildings and facilities shall be filed with the City Clerk. Letters shall include clear justification for the request including qualifying information, as outlined below.
2. Sub-committee Review. Upon review by the City Manager and if the request warrants further investigation, it will be presented to the City Council to consider designating a sub-committee consisting of two (2) City Council Members to provide a detailed analysis and recommendation. The Council may also direct any applicable Commission to also create a subcommittee to further assist in the review.
3. Sub-committee(s) Recommendation. The sub-committee(s) will present their recommendations to the applicable body followed by the City Council for a formal review. If the Sub-committee recommends approval, it will also provide a written statement to be preserved as to who the individual is/was and why the naming is taking place.
6 4. City Council Review. The City Council will make its determination as to the Naming or Renaming of City-owned land, buildings, and facilities at regularly scheduled meetings. The decision of the City Council will be final. a. In the case the request is denied by the Council, no further action is taken.
b. If the request is approved, staff will begin implementing the Naming of the public facility or outdoor space through execution of a formal agreement.
Qualifying Names and Criteria
The review and selection of names will follow an extensive and exhaustive review of several factors. The following will be considered as part of this review:
• Geographical location of the facility or outdoor space including descriptive names.
• An outstanding feature of the area (i.e. hill, vegetation). • Commonly recognized subjects of historical significance such as an event, person, group, culture, or place.
• A person or group who significantly contributed to the acquisition or development of the park/facility.
• An individual who provided an exceptional service in the interest of the park system as a whole or for the community as a whole. • A person whose contribution or significant Gift is of a most extraordinary nature.
• Parks and facilities that are donated to the city can be named by deed restriction by the Donor.
Additionally, Naming may be considered based on the provision of significant Funding that underwrites the cost of renovation or construction of city property.
Financial underwriting shall be broadly defined as substantial monetary contributions that enable the City to acquire, maintain, and/or improve City Assets. This may include monetary Gifts and/or grants that leverage federal, state and local Funding for such projects or complete Donation of land.
Renaming
The intent of Naming a public facility or outdoor space is intended for permanent recognition. Therefore, the Renaming of parks and facilities is strongly discouraged. Requests for the Renaming or removal of the name of an already named public facility or outdoor space will be subject to the most careful examination so as not to diminish the original justification for the name or discount the value of the prior contributors. Notwithstanding the preceding language, and
7 unless restricted by an agreement with a Donor, City Council has complete discretion to remove a name or rename a property
MONUMENTS, STATUES + PUBLIC ART
Purpose
To establish formal policies as a guide to the City
Council in considering the placement of a
Monument, Statue or public art on city-owned
land including city facilities and outdoor spaces;
whether and under what circumstances a
desired location would be best suited for the
placement of a Statue, Monument and/or
public art in honor of an individual or family; and
the duration of this placement of a Statue,
Monument and/or public art.
Memorial park benches are not included as part of this policy. These are administered by the Public Works Department and should be contacted directly for further details. The Community Development Department oversees placement of Monuments, Statues and public art on private property.
Guiding Principles
In considering proposals for the placement of a Monument, Statue or public art on city-owned land including City facilities and outdoor spaces, the city will evaluate whether the Monument or public art piece:
• Engenders a strong positive image consistent with the city’s goals and values;
8 • Have historical, cultural, or social significance for future generations; • Commemorate places, people, or events that are of continued importance to the city, community, region, state, or nation; • Have symbolic value that transcends its ordinary meaning or use and enhances the character and identity of the City Asset;
• The location of the Monument, Statue or public art piece is significant in some measurable way to the individual or image depicted; • The individual or image depicted in the art piece have recognizable geographic, topographic, or historical significance associated with Hermosa Beach. In assessing this type of name, the City Council will take into consideration the recommendations from different bodies such as the Planning Commission or the Hermosa Beach Historical Society. • Have broad public support; and
• Not result in the excessive commercialization of the City Asset.
Guidelines
The City Council will consider placement of Statues, Monuments or public art whether submitted by City Council members, city staff, city agencies, Civic Organizations, or by members of the community.
Placement of a Statue, Monument or public art should have recognizable geographic, topographic, or historical significance associated with Hermosa Beach. In assessing this placement location, the City Council will take into consideration the recommendations from different bodies such as the applicable City Commission(s) or local interest groups. Placement may be in honor of persons who have served the nation, the State of California and/or the City of Hermosa Beach in an exceptional and distinguished manner; and where such action is warranted by a contribution or service which is deemed to be of major significance.
Placement of a Statue, Monument or public art in honor of a deceased person shall generally not take place until after a minimum of one-year waiting period unless the City Council determines that there are overriding considerations deviating from this policy guideline. This policy guideline is not intended in any way to reflect on the merits of any deceased individual who may have been a prominent civic leader. However, it is felt appropriate to establish some type of waiting period to ensure that an individual’s accomplishments or contributions will stand the test of time; and that a decision shall not be made on an emotional basis immediately following a person’s death.
9 A Statue and/or Monument may be named after individuals or families who have donated the land or funds for the capital project, particularly if such Naming is set forth as a condition of the Donation. The City Council may approve the placement of a Statue and/or Monument based on an organization or individual’s monetary contribution to the city for that purpose. The funds from that contribution may be used for any purpose deemed appropriate by the City Council unless there is a specified use as a condition of the contribution. The duration of the name is on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the City Council unless otherwise set forth as a condition of the contribution approved by the Council.
