PUBLIC COMMENTS- VIA ZOOM

1. Mario Doe
6:20pm:

Mayor Flores stated the following:

Over the past year the City of Huntington Park has endured extraordinary strain. Our community has witnessed City Hall raids, corruption investigations, intense federal security and immigration enforcement actions that has spread fear among families simply trying to live and work in peace. These events have tested public the trust and placed immense pressure on our city. Through it all my purpose has been clear, to stand with our residents. When others hesitated, I spoke, when it was uncomfortable, I acted, I fought for the most vulnerable because leadership demands courage. And as mayor that responsibility was not optional. As a military veteran, I know that real fights require discipline, clarity, and accountability. I accepted this role believing we could help Huntington Park turn the page and move forward from past scandals. I believe we could rebuild integrity and restore confidence in this institution. But I have also learned that real reform is difficult. When systems resist transparency, and when narratives are being manipulated. At the same time, those same powers are now attempting a recall effort that threatens to further divide our community and distract from the work our residents need done. Defending against a recall is not a side issue, but a serious fight that requires full attention, independence, and focus. For that reason, I am resigning as mayor effective immediately. This decision is not a retreat it is strategic choice. Stepping aside from Mayors chair, allows me to focus on defending against a recall, setting the record straight, and continue to advocate for the residents of Huntington Park without constraints of ceremonial or internal obstruction. I pass the gavel to Vice Mayor and wish him strength and clarity in his role. He understands the weight of the chair and the pressures that come with it. Let me be clear. I am not stepping away from my city or my people. I am stepping into the next phase of the fight one grounded in truth, accountability, and transparency. I remain committed to that work, now with full focus and resolve. With that being said, Vice Mayor the chair is yours.

Vice Mayor Martinez became the chair of the City Council meeting. Mayor Flores becomes councilmember Flores.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Huntington Park

Huntington Park, CA 90255
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:

SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE 2026-01 AMENDING TITLE 2, CHAPTER 9,

TITLED MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS, OF THE HUNTINGTON PARK MUNICIPAL CODE IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:

1. Adopt Ordinance 2026-01 amending Title 2, Chapter 9 of the Huntington Park Municipal Code.

PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
SB 415 required public agencies to change their election dates if the voter turnout of their current elections were 25% lower than voter turnout in the last four statewide general elections. (2008, 2010, 2012, 2014) On September 14, 2017, the City of Huntington Park amended its municipal code governing election dates for city council members from March of odd years to March of even years. At the time this was in compliance with state law as the State had moved primary election dates to March through SB 568. However, in 2020, the State moved primary election dates for gubernatorial elections back to June.

The City of Huntington Park never amended the City municipal code to reflect this change.

Due to the fact that the City never amended its municipal code to reflect this change, the municipal code must be updated.

This ordinance would realign the municipal code to reflect the requirements of state law and would move elections to November to align with the State general elections.

LEGAL REQUIREMENT
No legal consideration needed.

FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
No fiscal impact.

CONCLUSION
Upon Council approval, staff will proceed with the recommended actions.

Respectfully submitted,

RICARDO REYES
City Manager

Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:

SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE 2026-03 AMENDING TITLE 6, CHAPTER 1,

TITLED ANIMALS, INSECTS, AND FOWL, OF THE HUNTINGTON PARK MUNICIPAL CODE
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:

1. Adopt Ordinance 2026-03 amending Title 6, Chapter 1 of the Huntington Park Municipal Code.

PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The County of Los Angeles provides animal control services through its Animal Care and Control department. The City of Huntington Park utilizes the County to provide animal control services to the City. Over the past several years the cost of providing this service has increased drastically. As a result, staff has looked into updating the City’s municipal code to better reflect the standards and cost of these services.

The County has developed a very robust ordinance as it relates to animals and given that they are also providing the service to the City, adoption by reference of the regulations under Title 10 of the Los Angeles County Code would bring the City in line with standards across the County. The adoption would also allow the City to remain current with any changes in the law without having to take action on those changes. Moreover, it retains City control should there be any disagreement with amendments to the County Code. The City Council would have ultimate authority over any amendments it seeks to implement to its own municipal code.

LEGAL REQUIREMENT
No legal consideration needed.

FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
No fiscal impact.

CONCLUSION
Upon Council approval, staff will proceed with the recommended actions.

This added section placed additional constraints on the ability of municipal agencies as related to sidewalk vendors. Among the new restrictions are the prohibition of the collection of criminal history of applicants for permits for peddling or sidewalk vending. It also prohibits municipal agencies from requiring applicants to submit to a LiveScan or any sort of fingerprinting. Lastly, it also exempts the disclosure of personally identifiable information of applicants from the California Public Records Act.

As a result of SB 635, the HPMC has been amended to reflect the changes required under the law.

LEGAL REQUIREMENT
No legal consideration needed.

FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
No fiscal impact.

CONCLUSION
Upon Council approval, staff will proceed with the recommended actions.

Respectfully submitted,

RICARDO REYES

Office of the City Manager
City Council Agenda Report

January 27, 2026
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:

PUBLIC HEARING – PRESENTATION OF THE SECOND SET OF DRAFT MAPS FOR

THE TRANSITION TO A BY-DISTRICT ELECTION SYSTEM AND CONSIDERATION

OF A RESOLUTION TRANSITIONING FROM AN AT-LARGE ELECTION SYSTEM TO

A BY-DISTRICT ELECTION SYSTEM
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:

1. Conduct a public hearing regarding the second round of draft maps that have been submitted for consideration;

2. Solicit input from the community regarding the draft maps that have been submitted;

3. Select a map from the submitted entries; and

4. Approve Resolution 2026-01 adopting by-district elections.

PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 (“FVRA”) and the California Voting Rights Act (“CVRA”) set forth specific criteria for how elections are to be held when a potential for voter disenfranchisement exists. The FVRA and CVRA differ in that the CVRA is much more plaintiff friendly and has allowed numerous legal challenges to the at-large election system that had been employed by most public agencies and special districts. To date, no public agency has overcome a legal challenge brought under the CVRA and many millions of dollars have been paid out in judgments and settlements when these lawsuits are brought.

The process of transitioning from an at-large election system to a by-district election system is covered in Elections Code § 10010. In essence, the City will be required to hold PUBLIC HEARING – PRESENTATION OF FIRST SET OF DRAFT MAPS FOR THE

TRANSITION TO A BY-DISTRICT ELECTION SYSTEM
January 27, 2026

Page 2 of 2 ends

two (2) public hearings prior to the release of draft maps of the Council districts. Those first two public hearings must occur within 30 days of each other.

After the initial two public hearings, draft maps of the Council districts will be published, and the Council will be required to hold an additional two (2) public hearings where it will solicit further input from the community. These additional two public hearings must occur with 45 days of each other.

Once the four (4) public hearings have been held, the City Council will be able to vote on a district map which will be used in the 2026 election of City Council members. The final map will also have a proposed election sequence whereby specific districts will be assigned to either the 2026 election or the 2028 election.

CONCLUSION
Tonight, the City Council will be holding its 5th public hearing in the series required under Elections Code § 10010. Six additional maps have been published for the Council’s consideration. A total of 10 maps have been published in accordance with the law and are available for consideration by the Council. Throughout this process, the City has also engaged in numerous outreach efforts to the public including multiple emails, public notices, and social media outreach efforts. The City has also held 2 community meetings to solicit additional input from the community.

Respectfully submitted,

RICARDO REYES
City Manager

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

HUNTINGTON PARK ADOPTING BY-DISTRICT

ELECTIONS, SELECTING A MAP, AND AN ELECTION

SEQUENCE FOR THE SELECTED MAP
WHEREAS, the City Council (“Council”) of the City of Huntington Park (“City”) is elected “at-large,” meaning that each Council member is elected by voters of the entire City; and WHEREAS, Council members are elected in even-numbered years and serve staggered, four-year terms, such that the next election for two (2) Council members is scheduled for June 2026, with the remaining three (3) Council members scheduled for election in March 2028; and
WHEREAS, under the California Voting Rights Act (“CVRA”), at-large elections are impermissible if they result in racially polarized voting. Racially polarized voting is defined as “voting in which there is a difference…in the choice of candidates or other electoral choices that are preferred by voters in a protected class, and in the choice of candidates and electoral choices that are preferred by voters in the rest of the electorate”; and WHEREAS, in furtherance of the purposes of the California Voting Rights Act of 2001, on October 14, 2025, the Council adopted a Resolution signaling its intent to adopt by-district elections. In a by-district election system, each Council member must reside within a designated area and is elected only by the voters in that area; and WHEREAS, National Demographics Corporation (“Demographer”) was retained to prepare by-district election map options for the Council and public’s consideration; and WHEREAS, on October 28, 2025 and November 12, 2025, the Council held public hearings to gather public input regarding potential district area boundaries pursuant to Elections Code section 10010, subdivision (a)(1); and
WHEREAS, the City has engaged in numerous community outreach efforts in order to maximize community input in the map drafting process, including: emails to community members, digital media outreach, posting of public hearings, two community forums, and information provided to various community groups; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Elections Code section 10010, subdivision (a)(2), the City published four (4) draft district area maps with associated election sequencing, on December 2, 2025 (Maps Green, Maroon, Orange, and Olive), and held a public hearing on December 9, 2025, to gather public input on the published maps and related election sequencing schedules; and

WHEREAS, Government Code § 34886 allows the legislative body of a city to adopt an ordinance requiring members of the legislative body to be elected by-district, without having to submit the ordinance to the voters, if the legislative body declares that the transition to by-district election system is done in furtherance of the California Voting Rights Act of 2001.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct.

Section 2. The Council approves the adoption of single member by-district area elections for the City.

CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK
Police Department
City Council Agenda Report
January 27, 2026
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 REJECT THE SOLE PROPOSAL FOR

POLICE TOWING SERVICES AND AUTHORIZE THE READVERTISEMENT OF THE

REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP)
IT IS RECOMMENDED THE CITY COUNCIL:

1. Reject the sole proposal received in response to the RFP for Police Towing Services; and

2. Authorize staff to readvertise the RFP through the PlanetBids platform to attract additional qualified vendors and promote competitive bidding.

BACKGROUND
On November 3, 2025, the City issued a Request For Proposal (RFP) for Police Towing Services to obtain qualified towing providers to support police department operations, including vehicle towing, storage, evidence holds, and related services.

The RFP was publicly advertised in accordance with City procurement requirements and made available to interested vendors. At the conclusion of the solicitation period, one responsive proposal was received by the deadline. An additional proposal was submitted after the deadline and was therefore deemed non-responsive and disqualified from consideration.

DISCUSSION
Staff conducted a review of the sole proposal submitted in response to the RFP. While the proposer met the minimum requirements, the receipt of only one proposal limits the City’s ability to evaluate competitiveness, pricing reasonableness, service capacity, and overall value to the City and police department.

CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL TO REJECT THE SOLE PROPOSAL FOR

POLICE TOWING SERVICES AND AUTHORIZE THE READVERTISEMENT OF THE

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP)
January 27, 2026

Page 2 of 2 ends

Best (procurement) practices encourage competition to ensure transparency, cost effectiveness, and best quality service delivery. When only a single proposal is received, the City may determine that rejecting the proposal and readvertising is in the best interest of the City to allow for broader participation and a more competitive evaluation process.

City procurement policies expressly allow for the rejection of any and all proposals when it is determined that doing so serves the City’s operational and fiscal interests.

Readvertising the RFP through the PlanetBids platform will expand outreach, increase visibility among qualified towing providers, and improve the likelihood of receiving multiple proposals for meaningful comparison.

FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with rejecting the sole proposal and readvertising the RFP. Fiscal impacts related to police towing services will be evaluated upon completion of the revised procurement process.

CONCLUSION
Upon approval by the City Council, staff will proceed with actions as directed.

Respectfully submitted,

RICARDO REYES
City Manager
Chief of Police
