Request for Proposals (RFP) to procure Neighborhood Canvassing Services that would support a Broadband Needs Assessment and help guide implementation based on direct community input.
The initial RFP was posted on PlanetBids on April 15, 2025, notifying 266 vendors, with 19 firms downloading the solicitation. By May 8, 2025, the City Clerk received two proposals. On review, the City Council rejected both submissions and directed staff to readvertise the RFP with clarifications to ensure alignment with project goals and requirements.
A revised RFP was published on June 4, 2025, notifying 250 vendors and resulting in seven downloads by prospective firms. Following a 24-hour extension, the City Clerk’s Office received five proposals by the extended deadline of June 19, 2025.
The following is the ranking of proposals, commencing from the most responsive bid:
Proposals Total Proposal Amount
The Principia Group, LLC. $109,250
Southeast Community Development Corporation $ 102,707/ $ 110,957 Alliance for a Better Community No Amount Provided*
Global Urban Strategies, Inc. No Amount Provided*
McCormick-Busse Inc. No Amount Provided*
*Bid is not responsive to RFP requirements; a Fee Proposal was not included.
Of the two complete proposals submitted, staff determined that the proposal from The Principia Group, LLC, was the most responsive. The firm demonstrated relevant, community-centered experience in the Company Qualifications section, aligning well with the goals of the Broadband Project. Staff conducted the evaluation process to ensure the selected proposal was both responsive and responsible and met all requirements outlined in the RFP.
Proposals that failed to include a fee proposal were deemed incomplete and did not meet the submission criteria outlined in the RFP. Specifically, Item 8 on page 7 of the published RFP clearly states that a comprehensive Fee Proposal, including a detailed breakdown of costs, hourly rates, total project cost, and any reimbursable expenses, was required for consideration.

F. The duties and obligations imposed under this Agreement and the rights and remedies available hereunder shall be in addition to and not a limitation of any duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law.

METHODOLOGY FOR CANVASSING AND SURVEYING
UNDERREPRESENTED COMMUNITIES
Our approach is tailored to ensure that historically underrepresented voices are not only reached—but prioritized—in the data collection and community consultation process. We recognize that equity-focused outreach requires trust, presence, and cultural fluency. Our methodology includes:
1. CULTURALLY AND LINGUISTICALLY COMPETENT STAFF
All canvassers and outreach workers are trained in cultural sensitivity and all are bilingual (English/Spanish).
Community Champions Program: We hire directly from within the communities we serve and recruit local leaders to increase relatability and trust.
2. LAYERED OUTREACH CHANNELS
Door-to-Door Canvassing: Prioritize census tracts with high broadband disparity and non-English speaking households.
School-Based Engagement: Distribute surveys and flyers at drop-off/pick-up points in Huntington Park K–12 schools, where working families are regularly present.
Community Anchors: Partner with libraries, churches, clinics, and parks to host tabling events, pop-up booths, and focus groups in familiar settings.
3. LANGUAGE ACCESS AND ACCESSIBILITY
All survey instruments, flyers, website, social media and communications are available in English and Spanish.
We use visual and simplified content formats where appropriate to increase participation among seniors and individuals with low literacy.
4. COMMUNITY FEEDBACK LOOPS
Focus groups and roundtables offer structured opportunities for deeper qualitative insights.
Participants are compensated (where permitted) for their time to show respect for their contributions.
5. DATA INTEGRITY AND PRIVACY
Surveys are conducted using secure mobile platforms (or paper where preferred) and all data is anonymized to protect resident identity.
We transparently communicate how the data will be used and how it may benefit the community.
This equity-first strategy ensures that the broadband needs assessment captures a full and accurate picture of the community’s infrastructure gaps, adoption barriers, and economic opportunities.

A California area retailer with over 40 locations across the state hired us to secure WIC licenses after some of their original applications had previously been denied.
Our client came to us in the midst of the holiday season, with just two weeks left to appeal and reverse these decisions. This is a process that generally takes 60-90 days, and as such, it was critical to waste no time attacking this issue head on. Our effort began by approaching the Department of Public Health, whose responsibility it was to approve or deny these licenses. After contacting the necessary public officials, and advising them of the impact this could have on the retailer’s ability to operate, our team was able to successfully appeal and reverse the original decision that prevented many of their locations from obtaining licenses.
By leveraging existing relationships, our team was able to successfully contact all necessary officials, despite the fact that the issue arose during the holidays. After contact had been made, our team facilitated communication between our client and the Department of Public Health so that the decision could be reversed before the new year. In the end, our team was successful in servicing our client despite the limited timeframe, and this can be attributed to the creative techniques our company employs.
Alchemy Media
As part of our full range of Government Affairs services, The Principia Group assists our clients in navigating entitlement and permitting processes. Our firm represents Alchemy Media, a national advertising firm specializing in urban outdoor media campaigns for some of the largest record labels, television networks and movie studios in the world. As one of their many vehicles for marketing, Alchemy Media places advertisements on pedestrian barriers surrounding vacant lots and construction sites through a graffiti abatement program offered by the City of Los Angeles’ Office of Community Beautification. The Principia Group assists Alchemy Media by preparing site maps, and applications and securing permits from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety. Over the past three years, The Principia Group has successfully obtained permits for over 200 sites throughout the city.
Cannabis Industry
Our team has worked for a variety of operators in the Cannabis Industry, from conducting community outreach, to providing tours to policy makers, to preparing applications to lobbying on and successfully obtaining licenses in various municipalities throughout Southern California. Our successes include the planning and execution of a successful community outreach campaign to ensure the approval of the Maywood Commercial Cannabis Ordinance on behalf of Cookies.

Our team continues to assist ABM in identifying procurement opportunities by understanding the needs of the community and by leveraging our relationships. ABM has been successful in presenting comprehensive Bundled Energy Solutions to dozens of elected officials and city managers, and is currently assessing and presenting findings to multiple interested municipalities.

Our team represents NASA Services, one of the top trash haulers in Southern California. The Principia Group has provided governmental relations services for the company since 2014 and has played a key role in its continued expansion. The Principia Group led the strategic efforts to help NASA Services become one of only seven companies to secure an exclusive trash franchise zone in the City of Los Angeles. The City of Los Angeles trash franchise is the largest exclusive franchise in the United States, worth approximately $3.5 billion.

The Principia Group was part of the campaign team that successfully executed the Yes on Measure M campaign in Los Angeles County.

City of Huntington Park
Attn: Ricardo Reyes, City Manager
6550 Miles Avenue
Huntington Park, CA 90255
Dear Mr. Reyes,
As a trusted community anchor in Southeast Los Angeles for over 20 years, the Southeast Community Development Corporation (SCDC) is honored to submit our proposal for the Neighborhood Canvassing Services for Broadband Needs Assessment.
Too many Huntington Park residents still lack access to affordable, reliable broadband—and they’re the same families facing housing insecurity, language barriers, and job instability. At SCDC, we meet our community where they are—literally and figuratively. Whether it’s walking a local corridor, attending a school event, or hosting a focus group at a park, we believe in face-to-face, culturally respectful outreach.
Our team is ready to:
• Train and hire local residents as canvassers.
• Listen deeply and respectfully to community feedback. • Gather meaningful data to help the City close broadband gaps with clarity and compassion.
We’ve reviewed the City’s RFP and are prepared to meet all requirements. Our proposal remains valid for 60 days. We look forward to the opportunity to bring our experience and community trust to this critical work.
With appreciation,
Emma Hernandez
Chief Executive Officer

Section 4 – Company Qualifications
The Southeast Community Development Corporation (SCDC) brings over a decade of experience in bridging the digital divide across Southeast Los Angeles. Our organization has consistently delivered high-impact digital equity programming by combining culturally rooted outreach, strategic partnerships, and technical support for underserved communities. Below is a summary of our qualifications, approach, and the extensive network we collaborate with.
SCDC Digital Equity Impact (2012–2023)
From 2012 to 2022, SCDC distributed over 23,700 computers and devices and refurbished more than 45,000 donated computers. In that time, we organized:
1,277 community events
• 96 health and wellness events
• Digital literacy workshops
• Open lab hours
• Referrals to low-cost internet programs
Our Approach
SCDC’s outreach strategy is comprehensive, multilingual, and deeply rooted in local trust. Whether helping a senior navigate a telehealth appointment or introducing youth to hands-on STEM experiences, we consistently meet people where they are—at schools, parks, libraries, community events, and right at their doorsteps.
Our infrastructure blends high-touch, in-person outreach with flexible and innovative tools that accommodate a wide range of community needs. This includes:
• In-person engagement: Canvassing, school events, community tabling, and bilingual digital literacy workshops
• Partner-powered collaboration: Working closely with schools, promotoras, local nonprofits, and churches to extend our reach
• Multi-channel communication:
o Phone banking and interactive texting (e.g., Salesforce, SMS Magic) o Email campaigns and hotline assistance (e.g., Constant Contact) o Multilingual flyers, posters, and banners
o Social media and WhatsApp messaging
We also deploy a full suite of survey and data collection tools—including Google Forms, SurveyMonkey, JotForm, and bilingual paper forms—to capture resident input in real time. Our trained canvassers, who are from the community and speak the language, are equipped with internet-enabled iPads to ensure seamless data collection, even in connectivity-challenged areas.
SCDC understands that successful outreach requires more than information—it requires connection and creativity. To that end, we’ve incorporated virtual reality experiences at public events, giveaways and gamified interactions to spark engagement, and dynamic visual content to draw in participants of all ages. These strategies not only increase participation rates but help residents feel seen, respected, and empowered.
In 2023 alone, SCDC:
• Enrolled hundreds of families in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) • Hosted laptop giveaways and digital access fairs across Southeast LA • Delivered free adult digital literacy classes to over thousands of participants • Offered youth-focused STEM programming, including camps, robotics, and coding workshops
We tailor our outreach to the unique needs of each neighborhood and are recognized across the region for our trusted, effective, and culturally responsive engagement.

Section 4 – Company Qualifications
A brief summary of North Star Alliance’s qualifications As a firm specializing in public outreach and stakeholder development, North Star Alliances (NSA) understands how to work objectively and gather meaningful feedback on complex projects. We have disseminated information as well as solicited feedback, both by telephone and in person, to/from the general public for clients including the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority, L.A. Care Health Plan, and the City of Los Angeles.
We prioritize incorporating qualitative and quantitative analysis throughout our outreach process to monitor performance, identify trends in community response, and make realtime strategic adjustments.
NSA brings decades of experience managing complex, multi-faceted projects with an array of internal and external teams, stakeholders, communities, guidelines, goals, budgets, and time zones. Our team is adept in communication, time management, reporting, cost control, and problem solving all while remaining nimble and focused on project goals and deliverables.
Together, our team is more than the sum of its parts. We are a versatile, quick-to-action group capable of segmenting into specialized units or mobilizing as a unified team to accomplish broader projects. Regardless of size or scope, we consistently deliver a high caliber of customer service that has defined NSA and our project partner firms.
NSA employs grassroots outreach strategies to build public understanding and engagement through focus groups, targeted campaigns, and culturally conscious messaging. These wide-spread eOorts leverage longstanding relationships with CBOs, local schools, and community stakeholders across Los Angeles and Southern California atlarge.
NSA’s proven expertise has provided its clients the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by executing over 1,700 community-level projects to an audience of over 2 million individuals throughout LA County and beyond, with a concerted focus on hard-to-reach communities. The NSA team understands how to reach stakeholders of all levels, as we regularly work with elected oOicials, schools, churches, non-profit organizations, grocery stores, senior centers, sports clubs, and other businesses that are local to the communities in which our customers will be performing project work, or we will be producing a project. NSA also has extensive experience working in multicultural communities, with the ability to communicate across several languages.
We consistently compile and analyze outreach data as we engage, such as participation trends, sentiment insights, and demographic reach to guide client strategy and refine tactics.
NSA’s keen understanding of the needs of the diverse communities and regions within LA County and LA City has served as a hallmark of our firm’s success. Through our extensive experience, we know that one size and approach does not fit all. We respect the unique characteristics of each and every community we serve and tailor our projects accordingly.
Relevant experience with community engagement and broadband-related projects City of Santa Fe Springs Tax Survey and Engagement
NSA was contracted by the City of Santa Fe Springs to design and implement a community survey assessing public support for a proposed tax measure. Our scope included survey and messaging development, community engagement, as well as data analysis.
To ensure community involvement in this process, NSA facilitated focus groups with about 50 Santa Fe Springs residents to test and refine survey messaging. Based on feedback, we revised the survey to better reflect both City staO and resident concerns.
Using grassroots street-teaming at local events, NSA recruited nearly 500 residents to complete the survey, a particularly strong turnout for a city of only twenty thousand people.
After data collection, we conducted both quantitative and qualitative analysis to deliver a report that both highlighted positive community sentiment and informed the City’s strategic messaging for the upcoming tax measure.
The success of this project led to continued partnership between NSA and the City of Santa Fe Springs on various community engagement eOorts.
Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority CBO Recruitment NSA has supported several initiatives for the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), including CBO Database Recruitment Mini Grants and CBO recruitment for three Metro-led focus groups.
In partnership with Metro’s OOice of Equity and Race (OER), NSA consultants strategically identified and engaged Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) that serve a broad spectrum of local needs, with an emphasis on reaching marginalized and underserved populations across Los Angeles.
Through these combined recruitment eOorts, NSA successfully added dozens of new organizations to Metro’s CBO Database, significantly expanding the network of Metro’s community partnerships. Recruitment included targeted outreach, personalized support, and ongoing communication through regular progress reports and trackers, ensuring eOective engagement.
In addition to recruitment, NSA facilitated Metro’s focus groups, developed qualitative survey measures, synthesized both qualitative and quantitative feedback, and produced final reports featuring analytic insights and strategic recommendations. These partnerships strengthened Metro’s ability to center community voices and ensure diverse representation in its planning and programming eOorts. NSA has since gone on to engage hundreds of CBOs in support of various Metro projects.
A short description of your approach to qualitative research and engaging underrepresented communities
NSA takes a community-first approach to qualitative research, particularly when engaging underrepresented populations. We begin each project by listening and prioritizing an understanding of the local context and concerns before shaping any outreach or focus group strategy. NSA carefully aligns client objectives with the experiences of the community to ensure our research messaging is both relevant and respectful.
We design focus groups and community engagement activities that are culturally responsive and intentionally inclusive. Rather than relying on generic scripts, we develop discussion guides informed by local perspectives and community voices. This helps to better surface insights that are often overlooked, both building trust with participants and absorbing as much information as possible for our clients. By elevating participant’s voices and incorporating their feedback into our recommendations, we ensure that our research informs strategy and fosters meaningful connections with the community.

Dear Neighborhood Canvassing Services for Broadband Needs Assessment Selection Committee:
I am pleased to support the Southeast Community Development Corporation (SCDC) application and proposal for the City of Huntington Park Neighborhood Canvassing Services for Broadband Needs Assessment. SCDC has played a significant role in advancing digital equity and inclusion for residents affected by the digital divide in Southeast Los Angeles (SELA) and throughout Los Angeles County.
SCDC's work has had a profound impact on the SELA community, connecting numerous SELA residents to internet-enabled devices and fostering equitable access to and participation in civic engagement, education, healthcare, and employment opportunities. Their digital literacy training classes and community outreach events have been instrumental in helping qualifying SELA households enroll in the Federal Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The importance of SCDC's equity-centered outreach strategies cannot be overstated, as they are crucial for ensuring that every SELA resident has access to broadband internet connectivity, technology, skills, and support.
SCDC's commitment to digital equity and inclusion is further underscored by its active membership in the County Intergovernmental Broadband Coordinating Committee (IBCC). As a member organization, SCDC plays a key role in the IBCC's mission to bridge the digital divide throughout Los Angeles County. The IBCC, a regional collective County of Los Angeles

Such costs and expenses shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by counsel of CITY’S choice.
4.6 CITY does not, and shall not, waive any rights that it may possess against CONTRACTOR because of the acceptance by CITY, or the deposit with CITY, of any insurance policy or certificate required pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 1 – Scope of Work
About Alliance for a Better Community
Alliance for a Better Community (ABC) is a community-based nonprofit organization that has been committed to advancing equity for Latina/o families across Los Angeles through policy and systems change for 25 years. ABCs deep roots in Southeast Los Angeles (SELA) have allowed the organization to lead regional advocacy, civic engagement, and coalition-building efforts to ensure historically underserved communities such as those in SELA can thrive.
ABC brings over two decades of experience in public education campaigns, parent engagement, and coalition-led advocacy. More recently, ABC has led efforts to uplift the Southeast needs to bridge the digital divide working with SELA cities and community partner organizations to bring more public resources to increase digital equity ABC serves as a trusted convener, bridge-builder, and policy advocate, grounding all of the organization’s work in the lived experiences of the community members they serve. Over the last two years, ABC has led targeted digital equity efforts across SELA and Huntington Park through community training cohorts, advocacy, coalition convenings, and multilingual outreach. ABC is well-positioned to lead a citywide outreach and engagement strategy that is culturally competent, community-driven, and designed for impact.
Project Understanding
The City of Huntington Park is a vibrant, predominantly Latina/o community with a population of approximately 54,000 residents. Over 97% of the population identifies as Latina/o, and more than one-third are foreign-born.
The city is characterized by a young population, with a median age of around 32, and a high percentage of households speaking a language other than English at home. These demographics reflect a community that is rich in culture and resilience but disproportionately impacted by systemic inequities in access to education, economic opportunity, and broadband infrastructure.
ABC understands the unique needs of Huntington Park residents and the importance of culturally competent, community-centered engagement to ensure programs and services effectively address local challenges. Our proposal reflects a deep commitment to advancing digital equity, empowering local leaders, and building sustainable pathways that uplift historically underserved communities in Huntington Park.
The City of Huntington Park recognizes that meaningful digital equity requires direct engagement with the communities most impacted by broadband gaps.
This project seeks to lay the foundation for an equitable, community-informed 1 municipal broadband network by identifying broadband access, affordability, and service challenges across households, businesses, and institutions.
ABC understands that the central role of this project is to design and lead a robust outreach strategy that is representative and intentionally inclusive. As a trusted community organization in Southeast Los Angeles, ABC has long-standing relationships with local schools, nonprofits, community leaders, and residents in Huntington Park. ABC’s multilingual and multigenerational approach is grounded in cultural competency and trust, which is critical for collecting honest feedback from residents who are often excluded from civic planning processes. ABC brings a deep understanding of community-based engagement practices and has successfully led previous digital equity initiatives in the City and surrounding regions.
Through its established infrastructure and relationships, ABC will reach Huntington Park’s diverse population, particularly low-income, immigrant, senior, and youth residents to ensure that data collection reflects the needs of those who stand to benefit most from a reliable, community-owned broadband system.
Project Goals and Approach
A. Community Engagement: Canvassing & Outreach to Residents To ensure meaningful and representative participation from Huntington Park’s diverse population, ABC will implement a combination of digital and in-person outreach strategies. Efforts will focus on reaching monolingual Spanish speakers, renters, seniors, and immigrant families, among others, through approaches that prioritize language accessibility, cultural relevance, and community trust.
● Promotor/a model canvassing: ABC will recruit, train, and deploy bilingual promotoras/es who are residents of Huntington Park to conduct residential and small businesses with door-to-door outreach.
These promotoras/es are leaders in their neighborhoods and trusted messengers. They will provide project information, answer resident questions, and assist with completing surveys in preferred languages.
This trusted messenger model supports authentic community conversations and enhances participation.
● Tabling and workshops at community hubs: ABC will coordinate with key community sites, such as the Huntington Park Library, community centers, parks, and local standing events, to host tabling efforts and mini-survey drives. Informational workshops, through ABC’s existing parent outreach programming on digital equity and broadband access will also be offered to spark resident interest.
2 ● Parent engagement at local K–12 schools: In collaboration with local schools, ABC will conduct outreach during parent drop-off/pick-up hours, attend school events and meetings, and distribute bilingual (English/Spanish) materials. Engaging families through school networks ensures outreach to households with K–12 students most affected by the digital divide.
● Senior and childcare center outreach: ABC will coordinate outreach events and distribute surveys at senior centers and childcare facilities, working with local health clinics and family-serving providers.
Small-group discussions and direct assistance with survey completion will be provided to ensure inclusion of older adults and early childhood caregivers in the planning process.
● CBO-based outreach: ABC will collaborate with trusted, local community-based organizations, particularly those that serve youth, LGTBQ+, families, and immigrant communities, to expand outreach efforts. These organizations are deeply embedded within Huntington Park’s social fabric and maintain long-standing relationships with residents. ABC will work alongside these partners to align outreach with ongoing community activities and engagement spaces, such as existing programs, events, and meetings. Through this collaborative approach, ABC will amplify trust, encourage participation, and ensure that the survey and related materials reach residents in spaces where they already feel safe, informed, and empowered.
● Digital and traditional media campaigns: ABC will design and implement a culturally relevant media campaign using both digital platforms and traditional outlets. Paid social media ads, text messaging, and email blasts through partner networks will maximize reach and promote both survey participation and community forums. ABC will also provide sub-grants to five local partner organizations to share information to communities and particular populations that they are able to reach as trusted messengers.
To support participation across all community engagement strategies, ABC will work closely with leadership at schools, senior centers, child care centers, libraries, and other key community sites to ensure that Huntington Park residents feel safe and welcome attending events and engaging in outreach activities. Given the increased federal immigration enforcement in the area, these partnerships will be essential in creating trusted spaces where residents can access information, share their perspectives, and take part in shaping local digital equity efforts without concern for personal safety.
B. Anchor Institution Engagement
A full understanding of Huntington Park’s broadband needs requires insight from a broad range of anchor institutions. In addition to the categories of 3 community outreach identified above, ABC will also engage within, community clinics and health centers, childcare and early education centers, post-secondary institutions, faith-based institutions, libraries, and other community-based organizations.
Survey collection:
ABC will administer online surveys with institutional leaders to understand broadband-related challenges, such as reliability, speed, and equipment limitations. These engagements will also explore the impact of broadband on service delivery, including telehealth, operations, and public access.
Sector-specific focus groups and roundtables:
ABC will organize small focus groups and roundtable discussions with representatives from health, education, small business, and nonprofit sectors to gather qualitative insights and cross-sector challenges. Findings will inform recommendations for municipal broadband planning that reflect institutional needs.
Community Forums and Public Engagement
ABC will lead the planning and logistics for two town hall-style community forums. These events will provide structured opportunities for education, feedback, and engagement. To ensure an inclusive environment, ABC will implement protocols that prioritize the safety of all participants, given increased recent federal immigration enforcement in the region. Forums will be conducted in both English and Spanish and promoted via ABC’s outreach channels. Each forum will include:
● Educational segments on broadband access, speed, pricing, and reliability
● Interactive features such as live polling, Q&A sessions, and group discussions
● Promotion of additional opportunities for resident input through focus groups and surveys.
● Opportunity for City staff to provide a city-led presentation on the municipal broadband buildout, including goals, timelines, and infrastructure plans, ensuring public trust and transparency.
Data Collection, Analysis, and Reporting
ABC will oversee the collection, analysis, and synthesis of both qualitative and quantitative data from residents and anchor institutions. This process will include implementing surveys to assess current internet access, identify barriers to broadband adoption, and gauge community interest in low-cost municipal broadband options offered by a nonprofit provider. Key areas of focus will include:
● Current levels of internet access and service reliability. 4 ● Reasons for non-adoption among residents.
● Interest in subscribing to broadband services at affordable price points, including but not limited to the city’s proposed options of:
○ Bronze: $40/month for 50MB download / 20MB upload
○ Gold: $59.99/month for 100MB download / 100MB upload
○ Platinum: $89.99/month for 1G download / 1G upload
● Identification of opportunities for local hire, workforce development in broadband expansion efforts.
Deliverables will include:
● A comprehensive final report with demographic breakdowns, geographic insights, and quantitative and qualitative findings from focus groups and community forums.
● Detailed analysis of survey results, including trends and community preferences related to affordability and service needs. ● Recommendations for broadband infrastructure priorities, pricing strategies, and culturally responsive outreach approaches. ● Ongoing coordination with City staff and broadband experts through planning meetings to ensure alignment with municipal goals and phased presentation of findings.
The activities outlined in this scope of work are designed to meet and exceed the expectations detailed in the City of Huntington Park’s Request for Proposals. ABC brings a unique combination of community trust, institutional partnerships, and digital equity expertise. This positions the organization to collect meaningful data, elevate local voices, and inform an inclusive municipal broadband strategy. ABC’s approach is intentionally community-centered and aimed at building long-term public awareness and buy-in for a future city-owned broadband network. Through multilingual, cross-sector, and culturally responsive engagement, ABC is committed to supporting a digital future that is inclusive, equitable, and sustainable for all Huntington Park residents.

Section 4: Company Qualifications
About Alliance for a Better Community (ABC)
Alliance for a Better Community (ABC) is a nonprofit advocacy organization committed to advancing equity and opportunity for Latina/o communities across Los Angeles, with a particular focus on Southeast Los Angeles (SELA) and the San Fernando Valley. ABC works at the intersection of education, civic 10 engagement, digital equity, health, and economic mobility to address systemic barriers that impact working families, immigrant communities, and under-resourced neighborhoods.
ABC’s approach is rooted in community powerbuilding. ABC engages residents, and local leaders in uplifting community voices through strategic advocacy, culturally relevant outreach, and data-informed campaigns. Over the past two decades, ABC has built trusted relationships with grassroots leaders, public institutions, and coalition partners to shape inclusive policies in K-12 and higher education, broadband access, and economic prosperity. Whether training parent leaders, supporting mixed-status students, or bridging digital divides, ABC centers lived experience to ensure lasting and meaningful change for Latina/o communities in Los Angeles.
History of Digital Equity Work
ABC is a recognized regional leader in digital equity and advocacy. ABC’s recent work includes:
● Helping pass several city-level resolutions on digital discrimination in 2024, including in Huntington Park.
● Leading four digital equity training cohorts in SELA for community members that build knowledge around broadband access and advocacy tools, while also cultivating resident leaders who continue championing digital equity in their communities. Through partnerships with EveryoneOn and Southeast Community Development Corporation, ABC trained 59 parents, with Huntington Park parents participating in three out of the four cohorts.
● Achieved significant increases in advocacy confidence among participants, with post-training surveys showing:
○ Confidence in advocacy rose from 6.3% to 40%
○ Comfort giving public comment rose from 43.8% to 66.7%, ○ 100% of parents felt confident explaining digital equity to others. ● Uplifting community voices in broadband policy efforts at the local, regional, and state level and developing social media communications campaigns.
● In partnership with Parent Engagement Academy, graduated 199 parents from schools throughout SELA, including Liberty Blvd STEAM, Maywood Academy HS, and Walnut Park MS. These trainings not only build leadership capacity but also deepen residents’ engagement in systems change.
Canvassing Capacity
Launched in 2022, the SELA Votes! Initiative is an ABC-led, 501c3 initiative designed to build Latino/a electoral power in Southeast LA through partnerships and peer-to-peer outreach. By training promotoras/es as trusted 11 messengers, the initiative engages “high opportunity” voters—residents whose civic power remains untapped—and fosters long-term, integrated voter engagement (IVE) efforts. In 2024, promotoras/es canvassed households across Bell, Bell Gardens, Cudahy, Huntington Park, and Maywood, and reached over 60,000 voters in 2024 via door knocking, phone banking, and peer-to-peer outreach, gathering community input on key priorities like affordable housing, livable wages, and immigration reform, while supporting a unified and empowered voting bloc in SELA.
In Huntington Park, ABC has mobilized parents and residents to speak at community meetings, participate in advocacy forums, and attend public events, including SELA Advocacy Day in 2024, where Huntington Park and SELA, leaders met with over 10 legislative offices and spoke directly to the Assembly Budget Committee in Sacramento.
Experience hosting Community Forums
In Fall 2024, ABC, in partnership with other community-based 501c3 organizations, co-hosted a series of LA Unified Candidate Forums. The forums engaged over 300 people, who were a mix of parents, students, educators, and advocates. With Board Districts 1, 3, 5, and 7 up for re-election in 2024, these races carried significant implications for ABC’s initiatives within the LA Unified framework. These forums amplified the opportunity for voters to uplift their concerns and provided candidates with a platform to present their visions for the students and families of LA Unified. By fostering direct engagement between voters and candidates, ABC helped cultivate a more informed electorate ahead of the high-stakes 2024 election.
History of Partnerships with Local Institutions
In July and August 2024, ABC hosted five financial aid workshops across Southeast Los Angeles, serving over 68 parents and students. These workshops provided one-on-one support with financial aid applications at a time when mixed-status families were navigating significant barriers due to the new Federal Application for Financial Aid (FAFSA) rollout. The workshops were held in person, including two hosted at the Huntington Park Library and Bell Gardens Library, where community members were also invited to learn about the financial aid process and available resources.
Small Business Engagement & Survey Analysis
ABC has demonstrated strong capacity in conducting community-centered research to inform policy and program design. In 2023, ABC designed and administered a 46-question bilingual (Spanish-English) survey to understand the needs of Latina//o-owned small businesses in Southeast Los Angeles. By training and deploying trusted community leaders to support survey outreach and completion, ABC secured participation from 105 business owners—90% of whom responded in Spanish—across key SELA cities including Huntington Park, Lynwood, and South Gate. The survey’s 12 participatory design and high response rate reflect ABC’s ability to reach linguistically and culturally diverse business owners, including those in informal or under-resourced sectors.
The survey also included targeted questions on digital equity, revealing significant gaps such as only 53% of respondents having broadband access, with affordability cited as the primary barrier, and just 37% rated their internet service as above average or excellent. These findings highlight structural inequities that limit digital competitiveness among Latina/o business owners.
Building on these established relationships, ABC will implement a robust survey analysis to assess current internet access, barriers to adoption, and interest in low-cost broadband options, as well as conduct canvassing along business corridors to uplift broadband needs and ongoing challenges with high-speed internet service.
Communications
ABC supports digital equity messaging across social and traditional media platforms, leveraging its role as a trusted voice in Latina/o communities to raise awareness and drive action. In 2024 alone, ABC conducted targeted social media campaigns to uplift digital inclusion resources, promote community events, and engage Spanish-speaking audiences across Southeast Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. Through culturally relevant content and community-centered storytelling, ABC reached thousands of residents via Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter/X.
In addition to its digital strategy, ABC has successfully engaged traditional media to amplify digital equity priorities, including securing radio and television segments on Univision and local Spanish-language outlets to discuss broadband access and community training program needs. This combination of grassroots digital outreach and earned media demonstrates ABC’s ability to mobilize public awareness and influence public discourse on key equity issues. For example, in 2024 alone, ABC:
● Published 35 Twitter/X posts, 15 Instagram posts, 19 stories, and 12 LinkedIn updates tied to digital equity.
● Sent 7 newsletters—5 of which featured digital equity—and 2 standalone issues, reaching nearly 1,000 subscribers.
● Secured coverage in La Opinión, LAist, and Capitol Weekly, amplifying the voices of Huntington Park parents and community leaders. ○ CALO News: Southeast organizations mobilize to increase voter participation in the upcoming elections
○ La Opinión: Autoridades y líderes del sureste de LA llaman a los residentes a votar el 5 de noviembre
○ Capitol Weekly: Digital equity is a 21st Century right. 13 Connection to Huntington Park
ABC has longstanding partnerships in Huntington Park and regularly engages residents through community-based events, trainings, and advocacy campaigns. ABC works with schools, nonprofit partners, city leaders, and grassroots organizations to ensure residents are informed, equipped, and heard in matters of public policy, especially around digital access and equity.
ABC is a trusted convener and founding member of the SELA Collaborative, a regional network of nonprofit organizations committed to advancing equity and community power in Southeast Los Angeles. As a co-lead of the SELA Cares Resource Center, located at 3355 E. Gage Avenue in Huntington Park, ABC plays a critical role in coordinating services and outreach to families impacted by systemic inequities, including digital exclusion, housing insecurity, and immigration enforcement. Through this partnership, ABC will provide direct support and trusted information to Huntington Park residents, while collaborating with local organizations to ensure culturally responsive and community-informed service delivery.
More information on ABC’s prior work on broadband access and affordability can be found on the organization’s website.
Methodology
The proposed project will utilize a multi-pronged, equity-centered research design to assess barriers to broadband access, affordability, and adoption in the City of Huntington Park. The methodology is structured around two key areas of inquiry: Community Engagement Analysis and Anchor Institution Qualitative Analysis. Each component is designed to capture the unique digital needs of historically underserved populations, particularly Latina/o residents, and local institutions.
1. Community Engagement Analysis
The community engagement component will be informed by successful peer-to-peer canvassing models, such as the SELA Votes! initiative.
Community members will be trained to serve as outreach ambassadors, conducting in-language surveys through door-to-door outreach and at trusted community institutions including clinics, churches, schools, and neighborhood centers. Outreach materials will be culturally responsive and available in both English and Spanish. Surveys will collect disaggregated data on broadband access, affordability, device availability, and digital literacy. Data will be geocoded to identify digital equity gaps by census tract and demographic group, helping to inform localized planning and intervention strategies. 14 2. Anchor Institution Qualitative Analysis
Key anchor institutions, including community health clinics, child care centers, libraries and community based organizations, will be engaged through semi-structured interviews, focus groups and roundtable discussions. The qualitative component will explore systemic issues such as infrastructure limitations, digital literacy gaps, and partnership or policy opportunities. A thematic coding approach will be used to analyze qualitative data, drawing out cross-cutting insights and elevating the perspectives of institutional actors working closest with underserved populations. These findings will support a holistic understanding of broadband challenges and help generate community-informed, actionable recommendations.
Note: The final methodology and scope of work will be determined in close collaboration with City of Huntington Park officials to ensure alignment with city priorities, community needs, and project goals.

Handbook
Prepared by the City Clerk
Revised January 2023,
2 Welcome
Welcome and thank you for your willingness to serve as a member of the City of Huntington Park Commission. The general role of an Advisory body (Commission) is to provide an opportunity for Huntington Park residents/non-residents to participate in the City’s decision-making process on various issues. Each Advisory body provides recommendations to the City Council in their respective areas and assists the City Council in addressing specific issues.
As a new commissioner, you should familiarize yourself with the documents governing your commission including City ordinances, City Council resolutions, and other related documents, all available from your staff liaison. Reviewing these documents will help you get a sense of your responsibilities.
This handbook serves as a reference for the basic protocols that apply to all City commissions. As a new member you may want to meet with the staff liaison responsible for your commission or the Chair for your commission to get a better sense of your role and the business of the advisory body. Along with familiarizing yourself with your commission’s foundational documents, you may want to review agendas and minutes from recent meetings to see what current issues have been under consideration.
All commission agendas and minutes are available on the City’s website at www.hpca.gov We hope this handbook will assist you towards a satisfying and productive experience as a commissioner for the City of Huntington Park. Your participation and commitment are deeply appreciated by the City Council, by City staff, and by your community. 3 General City Information
The City of Huntington Park was incorporated September 1, 1906 as a general law city. This means the municipal government operates and is governed in accordance with State laws rather than a local charter.
This specific form of government is a Council/Manager. It provides elected members of the City Council in Huntington Park to hire a City Manager to manage the administrative functions of government. The City Manager is responsible for effective and economical municipal operations and ensures that City Council policies are implemented.
The City Council is responsible for setting policies and providing overall direction for the City operation. As elected representatives, Council members provide a direct link with residents and to gain a greater awareness of the view of the residents, the Council also appoints advisory groups composed of local residents familiar with the community and its needs. These groups further expand the opportunity for resident participation in City government.
Application Process
Any citizen interested in serving on a commission is invited to complete an application form and submit it to the City Clerk’s office. Applications remain on file for one year. A listing of all current appointments will be posted at City Hall, City’s website and the City of Huntington Park Library whenever a vacancy occurs. Applications may be downloaded from the City’s website, picked up at City Hall in the Office of the City Clerk, or you may request that an application be mailed to you by contacting the Office of the City Clerk at (323) 584-6297.
Membership
All City Commissions shall consist of five (5) members, with the exception of the Youth Commission which shall consist of ten (10) youth from the City as defined below. All members of each Commission shall be a resident of the City of Huntington Park, however, at the City Council’s discretion, no more than two (2) Commissioners for any Commission may be non-Huntington Park residents. Each person seeking appointment to a Commission shall complete an application provided by the City and submit to a Live Scan background check before being appointed to a Commission and before being sworn into office. (Resolution No. 2015-19) How Appointments Are Made
Each member of the City Council shall have authority to appoint one (1) member to each Commission, with the exception of the Youth Commission, which shall consist of two (2) members appointed by each City Councilmember. Each Councilmember shall appoint their Commissioners within sixty (60) days of assuming office, or from the adoption of this Resolution, or from a vacancy occurring for said Commission position for that respective Councilmember appointment. If no appointment is made within sixty (60) days of assuming office, or from the adoption of this Resolution, or from a vacancy occurring for said Commission position, the Mayor shall appoint a member to the vacant seat. 4 Commission members may be removed from their appointment due to disqualification as provided for in this Resolution or upon the sole decision by the Councilmember who appointed that Commissioner. All appointments or removal of Commissioners shall occur at an open meeting of the City Council. If removal of a Commissioner occurs, the City Clerk shall send notice to that Commissioner at the last address on file with the City. (Resolution No. 2015-19) Oath of Office

By taking this oath, you swear or affirm to support, defend, and bear allegiance to the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of California.
Officers
A Chair and a Vice Chair are selected by the members of the individual advisory bodies in March each year for a one-year term. In the case of advisory bodies that meet on an “as-needed” basis, the Chair and Vice Chair shall be elected at the first meeting scheduled in March each year. A Chair may not serve more than two consecutive terms.
Responsibilities
The primary role of an advisory body is to provide judicious advice to the City Council, the elected policy-making body of the City. The advisory body’s role can include hearing public testimony on the Council’s behalf, building community consensus for proposals, facilitating study of issues, assessing the alternatives regarding issues of community concern, and ultimately forwarding recommendations to the Council for its consideration. There may be times when the advisory body’s recommendations will not be sustained or will be modified by the City Council. It is important for the advisory body members to recognize that this is not a rejection of the integrity of the recommendation, but an inevitable part of the process of community decision-making.
Attendance
For advisory bodies to function effectively and accomplish their goals, all members must be active participants. This means all members must be present at all meetings. Commissioners should inform the staff liaison prior to the meeting if they will be unable to attend.
If any member of a commission or committee is absent from three (3) regular meetings in any one calendar year, the staff liaison shall immediately inform the City Council. Upon notification to the City Council, the office will be deemed vacant, and the term of such member terminated. Excused absences may be granted by the chair. An excused absence will not count towards the allowable three (3) absences in any one calendar year.
5 Resignations
Members wishing to resign from their commission position prior to the expiration of their term should submit to the City a brief letter stating their intention and the effective date of the resignation. The letter should be addressed to the Mayor and Council Members in care of the City Clerk.
Disqualification
When a member no longer meets the qualifications for the Commission, the member is therefore disqualified, and the office shall thereupon become vacant. (Resolution No. 2015-19) Vacancies
If for any reason a vacancy occurs, it shall be filled by appointment by the member of the City Council who appointed said Commissioner for the unexpired portion of such term. (Resolution No. 2015-19)
The staff liaison shall inform the City Clerk and have a vacancy notice posted in accordance with the requirements of the Government Code. Applications from people interested in serving on a particular body are accepted. Following the interview of eligible applicants. The City Council shall make an appointment during a regular City Council meeting to fill the unexpired term.
Term Limits
Each Commissioner’s term shall be for a period of four years, unless removed by the appointing Councilmember or because of disqualification as set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Commissioner shall serve for a period which exceeds the time in office for the Councilmember appointing that Commissioner. If the appointing Councilmember completes his or her term, vacates their office or otherwise is no longer holding office, the term of the Commissioner appointed by said Councilmember shall end. However, nothing contained in this section shall prevent another Councilmember or the new Councilmember from appointing the individual back to the same Commission or to a different Commission. (Resolution No. 2015-19) Termination of Commission
Termination of the Commission shall be done at the will and vote of the City Council. (Resolution No. 2015-19)
Compensation
Commission member compensation shall be set by resolution of the City Council. 6 Commission Handbook
All Commission Members must adhere to the provisions contained and referenced in the City of Huntington Park Commission Handbook as approved by the City Council.
Scope of Authority
All communication or questions should be addressed to each advisory body’s respective staff liaison. If a question arises and the members require clarification as to duties, authority, or legal issues, all such items must be presented to the staff liaison. The staff liaison will seek clarification from the appropriate parties (i.e. department head, City Attorney or City Council) and report back to the advisory body.
Advisory bodies are not involved in the administration or operation of City departments. Advisory body members may not direct City staff to initiate programs and may not conduct major studies or establish policy without the approval of the City Council. All communication or questions must go through the staff liaison.
Advisory body members may not use their official title or City equipment or resources for non-City business. Examples of such prohibited conduct include, but are not limited to, use of City vehicles, facilities and City stationery.
Advisory bodies shall not receive, disburse, or in any way possess money or any other valuable commodity as an agent of the City without the prior authorization of the City Council Advisory bodies shall not knowingly work to the advantage of any citizen or group or show preference to any other citizen or group.
All advisory bodies who anticipate the need during the upcoming fiscal year for financial expenditures shall submit through their staff liaison an annual proposed budget to the corresponding Department Head and City Manager. The budget request will be incorporated into the City’s annual budget for Council review and approval. All requests for budgeted expenditures shall be processed according to City purchasing procedures.
Advisory bodies shall be subject to the same travel and business expense policy established by the City Council. (Policy available through staff liaison.)
All action and business of the advisory body shall be conducted by the advisory body as a whole, and no member shall transact business on an individual basis unless authorized by the majority vote of the quorum.
It is the responsibility of the advisory body to be represented at the meetings of the City Council or at meetings of other committees or commissions when matters of joint concern are to be discussed.
It will be the responsibility of advisory bodies to inform other bodies of the city via the staff liaison when it will consider matters of concern to such other advisory bodies. 7 Conflicts of Interest
All members of City advisory bodies should avoid the appearance of bias in pending City matters at all times. The Government Code states that “members of the legislature, state, county, district, judicial district, and city officers or employees, which includes city advisory board members, shall not be financially interested in any contract made by them in their official capacity, or by any body or board of which they are members.
The Political Reform Act of 1974 defines various conflicts of interest and is quite lengthy; but basically, a conflict of interest exists when a person influences a decision that will materially affect the value of a personal financial interest, or a financial interest of his/her immediate family, as distinguished from the action’s effect on the public in general.
If a Commission or Committee member has a conflict of interest, he/she must not make or participate in making, or in any way attempt to use his/her official position to influence a governmental decision relating to the matter in which he/she or a member of his/her immediate family, possess a financial interest. The safest way to address a conflict of interest is for the Commission or Committee members to state that there is a conflict immediately after the Chair announces the item for consideration. The member must then refrain from participating in the deliberations and abstain from voting.
Penalties for violating the conflict-of-interest laws are serious and may include fines and/or a prohibition against serving in public office. Questions regarding a potential conflict of interest may be directed to your staff liaison or the City Clerk, who will consult with the City Attorney if necessary.
You may also view more information about conflicts of interest by visiting the State of California Fair Political Practices Commission website at www.fppc.ca.gov Additionally, all members of a City advisory body are required to complete a Statement of Economic Interest (Form 700) upon assuming office and an annual statement for filing with the City Clerk. All forms are distributed by the City Clerk who is the City’s FPPC filing officer. Upon completion all Form 700s are filed with the City Clerk and kept available for public inspection.
The City of Huntington Park has adopted a Conflict-of-Interest Code which identifies the officers, employees and consultants who are required to file a Form 700 based upon their involvement or participation in the making of decisions which may foreseeably have a material effect or a financial interest.
Quorum
At any meeting of an advisory body, a majority of the total number of members of the Commission shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but a lesser number may adjourn from time to time for want of quorum and until a quorum can be obtained. (Resolution No. 2015-19). Unless otherwise posted, a majority vote of those present and voting shall be sufficient to adopt motions.
Agendas
State law requires that an agenda for each advisory meeting be posted at least 72 hours prior to the meeting. The agenda shall state the time and place of the meeting and a brief description of matters to be heard. The agenda shall also provide an opportunity for members of the public to be heard at the 8 meeting regarding matters within the jurisdiction of the advisory body. The staff liaison assigned to each advisory body is responsible for preparation and posting of the meeting agenda. A copy of the agenda is mailed and/or e-mailed (upon request) to each member of the advisory body as well as to the members of the Huntington Park City Council, City Manager and the City Clerk. The staff liaison is also responsible for notifying the advisory members, City Council, City Manager and the City Clerk of meeting cancellations, adjournments, and/or change of locations.
Public Comment
The public shall be allowed to speak at all meetings on any item of interest so long as the item is within the subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body. The law also provides that the public must be allowed to speak before the consideration of any specific item on the agenda.
Meetings
Regular meetings of the Commission shall be as set by each Commission. The place of such meetings shall be at Salt Lake Park, 3401 E. Florence Avenue, Hunting Park, California (with the exception of the Planning and Civil Service Commissions) unless otherwise designated by the City Council or approved by a majority of the total membership of the Commission. When the day for such regular meetings falls on a legal holiday, the meeting shall not be held on such holiday, but shall be held at the same hour on the next succeeding day thereafter which is not a holiday. All meetings of the Commission shall be open and public, and subject to all laws of the state of California e.g. the Brown Act, governing open public meetings. The Commission shall adopt its own rules for the transaction of its business and keep a record of resolutions, findings and recommendations and actions voted upon. A report of each meeting of the Commission shall be given to the City Council. (Resolution No. 2015-19)
Meeting Types
City advisory bodies may hold two types of meetings: regular and special meetings.
Regular Meetings are held at the time and place specified in the resolution establishing procedures for each corresponding advisory body. Regular meetings may be “adjourned to” another date and time and are considered “regular adjourned meetings.” A copy of the order or notice of adjournment shall be posted on the door where the regular meeting was held within 24 hours of the adjournment.
Special Meetings may be held at a different time or place to discuss specific issues as noted on the meeting agenda, as long as the meeting has been properly noticed at least 24 hours prior to the meeting. No other business may be discussed at the special meeting.
E-Mail Communications between Advisory Body Members
Since e-mail communication can ultimately lead to the exchange of information intended to, or which may, create collective concurrence among a quorum of advisory body members, e-mail communications between advisory body member’s relative to advisory body business, should be avoided. While two members of a five-member body, for example, may appropriately communicate 9 with one another by way of e-mail, the “forwarding” of such an e-mail message on to a third or subsequent member would result in a Brown Act violation.
Role and Responsibilities of the Chair
The Chair shall preserve order and decorum at all meetings of the advisory body, announce the advisory body’s decisions, and decide questions of order. The Chair is responsible for ensuring the effectiveness of the group process by moving the discussion forward, involving all members of the advisory body, and allowing adequate public participation. In the absence of the Chair the Vice Chair shall act as the presiding officer.
Making Motions
Advisory body meetings are usually conducted according to parliamentary procedure. Unless otherwise specified by State law or City regulations, conduct of all meetings shall generally follow Robert’s Rules of Order.
When a member wishes to propose an action on a particular item on the posted agenda for the advisory body to consider, the member makes a motion. Below is an example of the steps involved with a motion.
1. The member asks to be recognized by the Chair.
2. After being recognized, the member makes the motion: “I move that …”
3. Another member seconds the motion: “I second the motion.”
4. The Chair restates the motion and asks for discussion on the motion.
5. When the Chair determines that there has been enough discussion, the debate may be closed with, “Is there any further discussion?”
6. If no one asks for permission to speak, the Chair then puts the question to a vote: “All those in favor say aye.” “All those opposed say nay.” Any member may request a roll call vote on a motion.
7. After the vote, the Chair announces the decision.
Decorum and Order
Properly phrasing a motion can be difficult and corrections may be necessary before it is acted upon.
The member making the motion may rephrase it or withdraw it.
Every commissioner desiring to speak shall address the chair and, upon recognition by the presiding officer, shall confine himself or herself to the question under debate.
Every commissioner desiring to question the administrative staff shall address the question to the department head who shall be entitled either to answer the inquiry directly or to designate some member of staff for that purpose.
A commissioner, once recognized, shall not be interrupted while speaking unless called to order by the presiding officer, unless a Point of Order is raised by another commissioner or unless the speaker chooses to yield to questions from another commissioner. 10 If a commissioner is called to order while speaking, he or she shall cease speaking immediately until the question or order is determined. If ruled to be in order, he or she shall be permitted to proceed. If ruled to be not in order, he or she shall remain silent or shall alter his or her remarks so as to comply with rules of the commission.
Advisory body members shall accord the utmost courtesy to each other, to City employees, and to the public appearing before the advisory body and shall refrain at all times from rude and derogatory remarks, reflections as to integrity, abusive comments and statements as to motives and personalities.
Any commissioner may move to require the presiding officer to enforce the rules, and the affirmative vote of a majority of the advisory body shall require him or her to so act.
Members of the advisory body shall not leave their seats during a meeting without the consent of the presiding officer.
City employees shall observe the same rules of procedure and decorum applicable to members of the advisory body. Any staff member, including the department head, desiring to address the commission, or members of the public shall first be recognized by the chair. All remarks shall be addressed to the chair and not to any one individual commissioner or public member.
Meeting Minutes
The staff liaison assigned to the advisory body is responsible for preparation of the minutes of each meeting. Meeting minutes shall be in Action form with the exception of Public Comment to be in summary form. Actions taken by the advisory body. Minutes of the meeting shall be submitted to the advisory body for approval at its next meeting and shall be signed by the Chair.
All advisory body agendas and minutes will be kept by the staff liaison, a copy forwarded to the City Council, City Manager, and City Clerk.

City Council Agenda Report
July 21, 2025
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Huntington Park
6550 Miles Avenue
Huntington Park, CA 90255
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING
COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT REFUSE CHARGES PURSUANT TO SECTION 6-
2.112 OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK’S MUNICIPAL CODE (172.54 REFUSE
COLLECTION FEES)
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Conduct a public hearing; and
2. Take public testimony; and
3. Adopt a Resolution Directing the County Assessor to include delinquent refuse collection fees as a special assessment to be collected at the same time and in the same manner as County taxes (172.54 Refuse Collection Fees).
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Valley Vista is the City's residential and commercial waste hauler. As required by the City’s franchise agreement with Valley Vista and in accordance with Section 6-2.112 of the City of Huntington Park Municipal Code, Valley Vista has provided a list of delinquent residential and commercial accounts for the purpose of debt collection. Collection of delinquent accounts, including all applicable fees and penalties, is accomplished through the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller’s Office via the annual property tax roll.
The Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller’s Office requires a City Council resolution to be adopted annually to document the service assessments to be levied upon each real property parcel and to inform the Auditor-Controller of the City’s intent to collect delinquent fees associated with trash accounts via the tax roll. Absent this action, the City would be unable to collect the annual delinquent charges for the given year.
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING
COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT REFUSE CHARGES PURSUANT TO SECTION 6-
2.112 OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK’S MUNICIPAL CODE (172.54 REFUSE
COLLECTION FEES)
July 21, 2025
As required by law, the City publicized the public hearing in June 6, 2025, edition of the Press Telegram.
FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
The City’s franchise agreement with the former waste hauler provides for municipal solid waste and recycling collection, transport, and disposal services (“Refuse Disposal Service”) to residential and commercial properties in the City. Residential and operating businesses are required to have Refuse Disposal Service and each property owner of a residential and commercial property is ultimately responsible for the payment of charges for service provided. In the event that the Refuse Disposal Service charge billed by the City’s waste hauler is not paid, the provisions of California Health and Safety Code Section 5473a and Section 6-2.112 of the City of Huntington Park Municipal Code authorize the City to collect the delinquent Refuse Disposal Service charges from the owners of the residential and commercial properties shown on the property tax roll after notice is given and a public hearing is held by the Huntington Park City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
Upon receipt of monies from the Los Angeles County Auditor-Collector, the City will remit payment to Valley Vista equal to the actual amount recovered less ten percent (10%), in accordance with Section 6-2.112 of the City of Huntington Park Municipal Code to cover the City's cost in the collection of the delinquent fees. The City will also receive payment of the franchise fee from Valley Vista for the amount of delinquent fees received via the County tax roll.
CONCLUSION
Upon adoption of the attached Resolution, staff will proceed to coordinate with the County and place the subject assessments on the County’s Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.
Respectfully submitted,
RICARDO REYES
City Manager
