FINANCE

MOTION: [Continuation Item from June 16, 2025 regular City Council Meeting. We left off on the Parks and Recreation budget]. Councilmember Sanabria asked that some of the budget be brought down, items like the Holiday Parade. Youth Sports Supplies is also high because we have to redo the gymnasium floors every year. Supply money is used for equipment that we have to replace. For example, the Chalking, the soccer nets, and basketballs. All are items are regularly replaced. Finance director stated the Two-month delay for revenues. Mayor Flores wants to make a comment for salary and benefits. He want to provide parks and rec staff with decent living wages. Especially the full times. Issues with Part Timers, he wants to consider the increases. Non-Representatives staff doesn’t have individuals advocating for them. Councilmember Macias is opposed to the budget cuts for the Parks and Recreation Department because they do provide emergency food distribution and other social services that can be essential in cases of emergency. Councilmember Sanabria just wants us to serve more people in the community. Vice Mayor Martinez wants to recognize all the work that Parks and Recreation does despite their limited resources. Money allocated for commission is for stipends. Commission programming was set aside for about 35,000 dollars divided among all the commissions to develop programs. Day of the Dead event was removed. Martiz stated that she believes that we shouldn’t discourage community events to reallocate funding. The Police Department presented their presentation. Mayor Flores asked about Youth in PD program. It was dwindled during Covid; however, these explorers transfer as cadets, then become PSOs and Police Officers. 80% become HPPD Officers. A lot are local people.
Increase in Salary is because of the renegotiations that occurred. The Chief stated that a good percentage of OT is special events driven.
Such as the parade, 5K, etc. Grants are going away because they are having a sunset period. Professional Development has decreased in PD department because we are already providing the best training, and a lot of funded by state funds and grants so it isn’t part of the general fund.
Fleet maintenance dropped from 416K to 85K because fleet maintenance expense swapped from PD to Public Works. We are not refunded if we help other organizations due to the Mutual Aid Agreements with our neighboring cities. We are in MOU with the counties. Mutual Aid Agreements go both ways because a team of 60 patrolling 24 hours, 7 days a week. Certain cases are reimbursable, but most are not. There is some funding in this budget to swap old cars for a more modern fleet. Mayor Flores wanted the young officers to have some sort of financial literacy courses offered to them, especially right now. Martiz wants to know about the animal enforcement program and how it can be most effective and beneficial to the community. How much money are we spending on animal enforcement. PD Chief stated that they provide services and educational resources for individuals. Mayor wants to know about security for the restrooms. Public Works provided their budget. Vice Mayor Martinez stated that we need to fix lights at parks, and cross walk. Pacific Boulevard could also use more street maintenance. Is it possible to have this in the upcoming year. City Manager stated we do have a good amount of funding for pacific for security, parking, and waste management. New Landscaping PSA will assist with the Vice Mayor’s concerns. Part of the contact with SLA will be cleaning Pacific Boulevard at 3 in the morning, allocation to the creation of parking, and pressure washing bus stations. Will be hiring staff for weekend operations. Public Works director doesn’t want to replace damages at Chelsea Park, instead he would want to replace them. Mayor stated he still wants to fix it to show community that the city does care. Councilmember Sanabria and Mayor Flores brought up concerns regarding Dial A Ride. It’s incredibly expensive, we own everything, and the bus drivers are not being paid nearly what we pay for the services. This cost is nearly criminal what we are paying.
Councilmember Macias mentioned her concerns regarding the liability, infrastructure, and capacity that we don’t have removing this program.
However, she believes it is a good opportunity to explore.
Councilmember Sanabria says that it costs 45-90 per person per ride.
He also has concerns for people connected to DES. The person in charge of the Dial-A-Ride program is the same individual connected to the DA investigation. Mayor Flores states that we should look into the program if individuals connected are involved. Dial-A-Ride you cannot reduce amount. Non-Departmental Budget was then explained.
Councilmember Martiz mentioned flexibility and budget to join an SELA mutual fund for class action lawsuit against the constitutional violations occurring at the moment. @11:25pm Vice Mayor Martinez left for an early flight the next morning. Mayor Flores voiced a couple concerns regarding CIP funding. Cyber Security concerns. Mayor requested that the council chamber remodel the project be placed on hold while we find funds. New Job positions presentation was presented afterwards.

City Council Agenda Report

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 TO RE-OPEN THE GENERAL RESERVE FUND 115, CLOSE FUNDS 152, 206, 209, 286, AND TRANSFER THE CASH BALANCES TO
THE GENERAL RESERVE FUND
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Authorize the Director of Finance to reopen the General Reserve Fund, 115; and
2. Authorize the Director of Finance to establish and implement policies and procedures requiring that any cash outflows from the General Fund Reserve be presented to and approved by the City Council; and
3. Authorize the Finance Department to formally close the identified funds: 152, 206, 209, 286, and transfer all remaining cash balances to the General Fund Reserve.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The General Reserve Fund 115 was closed by the previous Director of Finance in FY 2018 and has remained inactive since that time. Reopening Fund 115 will provide the City with a dedicated mechanism to set aside funds for future needs while also generating interest income. Establishing and maintaining a general reserve fund functions as a financial safeguard, enhancing the City's fiscal resilience, supporting the continuity of essential services, and helping to mitigate the impact of unexpected disruptions or cost increases on the public.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL TO RE-OPEN THE GENERAL RESERVE FUND 115, CLOSE FUNDS 152, 206, 209, 286, AND TRANSFER THE CASH BALANCES TO
THE GENERAL RESERVE FUND
July 21, 2025
Prior to the establishment of the Capital Improvement Project Fund, the City maintained separate funds for each individual capital improvement project. Many of these projects were funded on a reimbursement basis, resulting in idle cash balances due either to delays in reimbursement processing or temporary loans issued from the General Fund to correct negative cash balances. Staff have identified four such funds associated with completed capital improvement projects for which no further reimbursements are anticipated. These funds are now eligible for formal closure.
Fund 152 – Greenway Linear Park Project: In 2019, the City initiated the Greenway Linear Park project, which was funded on a reimbursement basis through a grant awarded by the California Natural Resources Agency. The project is long since completed with the final reimbursement being received in fiscal year 2023.
Fund 206 – CFP I Park Pay Station: In 2018, the City issued a Call for Projects (CFP) for the I Park Pay Station project, which was funded on a reimbursement basis through the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA). The final reimbursement for the project was received in fiscal year 2021.
Fund 209 – CFP City Street Resurfacing: In 2018, the City issued a Call for Projects (CFP) for a City Street Resurfacing initiative, which was funded on a reimbursement basis through the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA). The City received the final reimbursement for the project in fiscal year 2021.
Fund 286 – Illegal Disposal Abatement: In 2010, the City was awarded a reimbursement grant from Cal Recycle to support the implementation of an illegal disposal abatement program. The final reimbursement was received in fiscal year 2014.
FISCAL IMPACT
If the proposed funds are closed, the General Reserve Fund will receive an immediate cash transfer of $463,581.79. In addition, any future interest earnings associated with these funds will be allocated to the General Fund Reserve, providing greater flexibility in their use.
The cash balance of $463,581.79 is comprised of the following components:

Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION FIXING THE ANNUAL PENSION TAX RATE TO PAY THE CITY’S PENSION OBLIGATION BOND ANNUAL DEBT SERVICE AND A PORTION OF THE COST OF THE PUBLIC EMPLOYEES’ RETIREMENT SYSTEM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Adopt a Resolution Fixing the Rate of Taxes to Pay the Cost of the Public Employees Retirement System for the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and Levying Taxes for Said Retirement System to the Fiscal Year Beginning July 1, 2025.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
In 1976, the voters of the City of Huntington Park approved an initiative to pay for the City’s obligation to participate in the State of California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CaIPERS). Since that time, the City Council has annually set this voter approved ad valorem tax rate that facilitates placement on the property tax rolls by the Auditor Controller of the County of Los Angeles in order for the City to be able to meet its CalPERS related pension obligations.
Further, in 2005, the City issued $23,050,000 City of Huntington Park Pension Obligation Bonds (Federally Taxable), Series 2005A (“Refunding Bonds”). The proceeds of the Refunding Bonds were then deposited into CalPERS to mitigate the City’s unfunded pension liability for public safety employees at that point in time. The pension tax override was then pledged to the Refunding Bonds and in order to establish the obligation by law, the Refunding Bonds were validated in the courts, a judgment so entered, and the Refunding Bonds and a pledge of the override accordingly validated.
As in prior years, City Council establishes the property tax rate to be levied for FY 2025- 2026 by resolution. Staff will move forward with placement on the property tax roll prior to the deadline, so that collection is ensured for payment of the City’s debt service obligation.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION FIXING THE ANNUAL PENSION TAX RATE TO PAY THE CITY’S PENSION OBLIGATION BOND ANNUAL DEBT SERVICE AND A PORTION OF THE COST OF THE PUBLIC EMPLOYEES’ RETIREMENT SYSTEM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026
July 21, 2025
If the City Council approves the proposed rates, the pension tax revenues are estimated in the amount of $9 million for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.
The City’s pension obligation bond debt service payments are budgeted for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 in the amount of $2.5 million. Additionally, the City’s budgeted costs for pension benefits for City employees are estimated at $6.8 million for Fiscal Year 2025- 2026. There is a shortfall of $300,000 thousand in covering the City’s costs for pension obligations.
CONCLUSION
After Council approval of the resolution fixing the annual pension tax rate for the payment of debt service, as well as a portion of the cost of the CalPERS contribution, the City Clerk shall certify as to the adoption of the Resolution and cause it to be published once in a newspaper of general circulation, no later than fifteen (15) days following the adoption.

1. Review and adopt the proposed amendments to Chapter 11 of the Huntington Park Municipal Code regarding City Commissions.
BACKGROUND
The City Council (“Council”) of the City of Huntington Park (”City”) adopted Resolution 2015-19 on May 18, 2015. The Resolution established six (6) commissions within the City and modified the manner in which commissioners are appointed to the commissions.
At the May 19, 2025 meeting of the City Council, direction was given to staff to review the current Code and any resolutions that reflect the manner in which commissioners are appointed. Staff has undertaken a complete review of the current Code and any modifications or amendments to the Code established by resolution or other means. As a result of the review, it has been discovered that the current code does not incorporate the changes made by Resolution 2015-19.
Despite the Council adopting the Resolution, the City Municipal Code (“Code”) was never updated to reflect the changes made by the Resolution. At this time, the Code only calls for two commissions, these being the Youth Commission and the Theatre and Arts Commission. These can be found under Chapter 11 – City Commissions. No other provisions within the Code were found that establish the formation, manner of appointment, or any other regulatory scheme for commissions within the City.

SECTION 2: Section 4-4.1 of the Downtown Specific Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:
For all non-residential and mixed-use projects, building intensities are regulated through “Floor Area Ratio” (FAR) and/or building density. FAR is obtained by dividing the gross floor area of a structure as measured from the outside of the exterior walls, which includes all living spaces and attics, by the gross area of the lot. Parking lots, tuck-under, podium or non-daylighted parking located under the building footprint, and parking structures are excluded from FAR calculations for commercial and mixed use development.
In addition to FAR requirements, a minimum and maximum density for residential uses is applied. Densities are regulated through a “dwelling units per acre” (du/ac) measurement.
SECTION 3: Section 4-4.12 of the Downtown Specific Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:

Mixed-use projects combine commercial, office, and/or residential uses into one single development. The uses can be combined in multiple ways, such as each use on a separate floor or wing of a building or each use in completely separate buildings placed throughout a site. Either type of mixed-use is strongly encouraged within the Specific Plan area.
Mixed-use projects can create unique design issues such as the need to balance the requirements of residential uses with the needs of commercial uses.

ITEM 9
CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK
Police Department
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:
APPROVE THE PURCHASE OF FIVE POLICE DEPARTMENT ADMINISTRATION
DIVISION VEHICLES AND SUPPLEMENTARY EQUIPMENT
IT IS RECOMMENDED THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Authorize the expenditure of funds to purchase five Police Administration Division vehicles from FCA US, LLC (DODGE), specifically Carville Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Greeneville, TN; and,
2. Approve Finance Department to draw the funds for this purchase from account number 111-7010-421-73-11 (Improvements – LT Vehicles); and
3. Authorize the Chief of Police to purchase the vehicles and associated technology and emergency response equipment.
BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION
The City of Huntington Park recently entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Huntington Park Police Management Association (PMA). As part of the negotiated agreement, the City has committed to assigning take-home vehicles to members of the PMA (Lieutenants). These vehicles will be equipped for emergency response and will double as on-duty vehicles.
This initiative supports the operational readiness of the police department by ensuring that command staff have reliable and immediate transportation available at all times.
The nature of their duties requires the ability to respond without delay to a wide range of situations, including but not limited to critical incidents, emergency operations, and other time-sensitive matters that may arise during or outside of normal business hours.
The assigned vehicles will be utilized exclusively for official business and emergency response purposes. This initiative is essential in maintaining the department’s ability to
APPROVE THE PURCHASE OF FIVE POLICE DEPARTMENT ADMINISTRATION
DIVISION VEHICLES AND SUPPLEMENTARY EQUIPMENT
July 21, 2025
provide effective leadership, command and control of incidents, ensure public safety, and uphold the city’s commitment to a rapid and coordinated response in any situation requiring command level management.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the purchase of five 2026 Dodge Durango Pursuit SUVs from Carville Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, which has inventory available for immediate delivery.
PROCUREMENT PROCESS
Staff recognizes the city’s usual procurement process requires three bids for a purchase of this nature. Vendors have communicated a vehicle inventory shortage of police-rated vehicles throughout the country causing delays in receiving vehicles. To underscore this issue, staff conducted a thorough search for readily available inventory for immediate delivery and Carville Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Tennessee has a limited supply of instock inventory.
Huntington Park Municipal Code 2-5.14 / Sole Source Vendors provides the following purchasing guidance; “Formal bidding requirements shall be waived in areas where only a single vendor can reasonably provide the service, product or project being purchased.
The Purchasing Agent will establish requirements and procedures for sole source purchases.”
Additional costs outlined below are associated with the installation of associated technology and emergency response equipment for the police units.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING

6550 Miles Avenue
Huntington Park, CA 90255
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL FOR ACCEPTANCE OF FY 2024 EDWARD
BYRNE MEMORIAL JUSTICE ASSISTANCE GRANT (JAG) FUNDING AND
APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FOR THE PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT FOR THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT
IT IS RECOMMENDED THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Authorize the City Manager to accept funding provided through the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program totaling $28,938; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to be designated as the Grantee Official for the purpose of executing grant objectives, grant agreement, and documentation; and
3. Authorize the Finance Department to designate appropriate expenditure and reimbursement accounts in the current 2025-2026 FY budget to support the funds associated with this grant; and
4. Authorize the Chief of Police to complete the projects designated by the grant agreement.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Huntington Park Police Department has been awarded $28,938 in reimbursable funding from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) 2024 Local Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program. The Police Department intends to utilize these funds to purchase sixty (60) gas masks, each equipped with advanced filter canisters, to replace outdated units that have surpassed their service life. The acquisition of these gas masks is critical for enhancing officer safety and operational readiness, particularly in hazardous environments where chemical, biological, or other airborne threats are present. By equipping law enforcement personnel with reliable, up-to-date protective

gear, this initiative will reduce the risk of injury or fatality during high-risk and tactical incidents and ensure that officers can effectively serve and protect the community in effort to maintain their commitment to public safety and emergency preparedness at the highest level.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
The JAG funds will support the Huntington Park Police Department equipment and operational needs which otherwise would require use of the General Fund. No matching funds are required. The police department must spend the JAG funds to complete approved projects and submit for reimbursement once projects are completed.
Staff is requesting the Finance Department designate appropriate expenditure and reimbursement accounts in the current 2025-2026 FY budget to support the funds associated with this grant. This is a multi-year grant, which expires September 30, 2027.
LEGAL AND PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS
The 2024 Local Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) is not a competitive grant process. As part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2005, the 108th Congress merged the discretionary Edward Byrne Memorial Grant Program with the formula-based Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) program to establish the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program. The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) administers the JAG program, and the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) calculates the JAG formula-based award amounts using specifications outlined in the legislation. However, the City was required to submit a program narrative, a budget, and a list of eligible activities that will utilize JAG funding.
Reference the Agreement included in this report for legal and program requirements associated with accepting these grant funds.
CONCLUSION
Upon approval by the City Council, staff will proceed with recommended actions.

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) works in close partnership with state and local agencies, as well as other traffic safety stakeholders, to proactively address impaired driving.

The Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program (CTFGP) provides supplemental funding to support these efforts without supplanting existing resources or programs. Funds are allocated to eligible project categories in accordance with the California Code of

Regulations (CCR), Sections 1890.05 through 1890.07, as determined appropriate by the CHP.
The Huntington Park Police Department’s proposed project seeks to strengthen its DUI enforcement capabilities through comprehensive training and expanded resources.

The project also includes legal updates, enhanced report writing, and court preparation strategies to ensure procedural accuracy and support effective prosecution.
Additionally, the project will fund the purchase of a new patrol vehicle equipped with advanced technology, including a mobile data terminal. This vehicle will be designated for DUI enforcement operations.
By enhancing officer training and supporting proactive enforcement, this initiative aims to reduce impaired driving incidents and improve public safety in the City of Huntington Park.
The table below summarizes the awarded grant amounts:
DESCRIPTION AMOUNT

By strengthening officer expertise and supporting community collaboration, the project aims to reduce impaired driving incidents and promote public safety in the City of Huntington Park.
Problem Statement & Proposed Solution
Impaired driving remains a critical public safety issue in Huntington Park, contributing to preventable traffic collisions, injuries, and fatalities. According to recent data from the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), Los Angeles County consistently ranks among the highest in the state for alcohol-involved traffic incidents.
Huntington Park is not immune to this trend, experiencing a concerning number of DUI-related arrests and collisions annually. A significant gap exists in officer training and resources to effectively identify and address impaired drivers, particularly those under the influence of drugs, which have become increasingly prevalent.
The lack of comprehensive training in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) and Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) protocols, coupled with limited resources for effective court preparation, hampers the department's ability to deter, detect, and successfully prosecute impaired driving cases.
Proposed Solution:
To address this issue, the Huntington Park Police Department proposes a comprehensive project focused on equipping officers with advanced training and resources to combat impaired driving. Key components of the solution include:
1. Standardized Training: Providing officers with updated SFST training and certification to enhance their ability to detect and evaluate alcohol-impaired drivers.
2. Advanced Certification: Offering Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) certification to a select group of officers to address the growing challenge of drug-impaired driving.
3. Scenario-Based Training: Implementing practical, real-world training exercises to prepare officers for the complexities of DUI/DUID enforcement.
4. Legal and Report Writing Updates: Ensuring officers are up-to-date on evolving DUI/DUID laws and improving the quality of report writing to support successful prosecutions.
5. Court Preparation: Strengthening officers’ ability to present evidence effectively in court to increase conviction rates.
By addressing training gaps and providing necessary tools, this project aims to reduce impaired driving incidents, enhance public safety, and contribute to a safer community. With comprehensive support, the department will improve its capacity to identify, deter, and prosecute impaired driving offenders effectively.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
RESOLUTION TO APPROVE ADOPTING A LIST OF PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 FUNDED BY SENATE BILL 1 (SB1), THE ROAD REPAIR AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT CITY COUNCIL:
1. Adopt Resolution approving the Fiscal Year 2025-26 project list for Senate Bill 1 (SB1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017; and
2. Authorize staff to upload the resolution with the list of streets to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) website, CalSMART.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
On April 28, 2017, the Governor signed Senate Bill 1 (SB1), Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, to address transportation funding shortfalls statewide. SB1 increases per gallon fuel excise taxes; increases diesel fuel sales taxes; increases vehicle registration fees; and provides for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years.
SB1 established a Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) in the State Transportation Fund. Beginning in January 2018, the State Controller deposited funds generated from increased fuel taxes and vehicle registration fees into the RMRA. A portion of the RMRA funds is distributed monthly to the City for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation and critical safety projects on local streets and road systems.
SB1 emphasizes the importance of accountability and transparency in the delivery of California’s transportation programs. To be eligible for RMRA funding in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26, the City must adopt a resolution approving the list of projects to receive RMRA funding. Staff recommends that SB1 funding be applied towards the following streets in accordance with the City’s needs and approved Pavement Management Program (PMP).
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 PROJECT LIST FOR SENATE BILL 1 (SB1), THE ROAD REPAIR AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017 July 21, 2025

The next step following City Council approval and acceptance of the streets to be rehabilitated, SB1 funding guidelines require staff to submit the proposed project list and adopted resolution to the CTC Website, CalSMART. The City’s estimated local maintenance (MOE) amount for FY 2025-26 is $1,137,529.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
Before the City receives Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) funds from the California State Controller for the fiscal year, it must submit an adopted project list to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) by July 1, 2025. This list must comply with Streets and Highways Code Section 2034(a)(1).
The roadway projects listed are proposed to be funded through a combination of:
• MOE funds: $1,137,529
• SB1 RMRA funds: approximately $1,481,847
• Highway Users Tax Account (HUTA) funds: approximately $1,558,005 These totals, based on May 2025 estimates, amount to a combined funding of $4,177,381, made available through the Local Streets and Roads Funding Program.
This use aligns with the intent outlined in SHC Section 2030(a) and the 2025 Local Streets and Roads Funding Program Reporting Guidelines.
The estimated total cost for design, construction, and project oversight is $4,100,000.
Once the design phase is completed, staff will return to City Council with a detailed budget for review and approval.

OPERATIONS CENTER (EOC)
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Award contract to Bedrock Group Inc. for the construction of CIP 2024-01 Emergency Operations Center as a responsive and responsible bidder for a notto-exceed amount of $2,000,000;
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the PSA.
BACKGROUND
The City of Huntington Park is moving forward with the rehabilitation and modernization of its Emergency Operations Center (EOC), located in the Annex Building adjacent to the Police Department. The EOC plays a critical role in managing local emergencies and coordinating regional disaster response efforts.
To support this effort, the Huntington Park Police Department secured a $1,000,000 grant to initiate the facility upgrade. The project will address significant deficiencies in the current facility by upgrading the space to meet modern standards for incident command, ADA accessibility, health and safety, fire codes, and operational readiness. Proposed improvements include interior reconfiguration, creation of breakout and secure staff areas, communications and electrical system upgrades, HVAC improvements, security enhancements, and new furnishings and equipment.
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL TO AWARD PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR THE
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER
July 21, 2025
To ensure timely and professional project delivery, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for construction management services. Bedrock Group Inc. was the sole proposal received. Based on qualifications, relevant experience, and understanding of the project scope staff recommend moving forward with Bedrock Group Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total project cost is estimated at $2,300,000 which includes a 15% contingency of $300,000. This amount will be covered using a combination of grant funds, ARPA funds, and public funds. Staff recommend awarding the contract to Bedrock Group, Inc. as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for not to exceed amount of $2,000,000
CONCLUSION
Upon Council’s direction, staff will proceed with actions as directed.
Respectfully submitted,
RICARDO REYES

Prior to the expiration of the 45-day cure period, CITY may submit a written request for additional time to cure the Event of Default upon a showing that CITY has commenced its efforts to cure the Event of Default and that the Event of Default cannot be reasonably cured within the 45-day cure period.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
CONSIDERATION OF A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR
NEIGHBORHOOD CANVASSING SERVICES FOR BROADBAND NEEDS
ASSESSMENT
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT CITY COUNCIL:
1. Award a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) to The Principia Group, LLC, in an amount not-to-exceed $109,250.00, for neighborhood canvassing services to support the Broadband Needs Assessment component of the City’s Broadband Project, to be funded through the CPUC Federal Funding Award; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Professional Services Agreement.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
In 2021, the State of California established the Federal Funding Account (FFA) under the California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) to address the digital divide in underserved communities. Funded through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), the FFA is administered by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to support the deployment of broadband infrastructure across the state.
On November 7, 2024, the CPUC awarded the City of Huntington Park a grant of $25,358,952 to construct middle- and last-mile broadband infrastructure. This investment represents a significant step forward in expanding equitable internet access for all residents, positioning the City as a regional leader in digital inclusion.
To ensure robust public participation and responsiveness to community needs, the City Council authorized an agreement on April 7, 2025, for the development and management of construction bidding documents associated with the broadband infrastructure project.
As part of the City’s comprehensive project delivery strategy, staff subsequently issued a
