SUBJECT: Community Safety Commission Recommendation - Extension of One Hour Limited Parking Zone on South Street
INTRODUCTION
The Community Safety Commission met on September 9 to consider various community safety matters that included the consideration of a request to extend a one hour limited parking zone at 3000 South Street.
STATEMENT OF FACT
The Public Works Department received a request to extend a one hour limited parking zone at 3000 South Street. The existing one hour parking zone, for the hours of 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, begins at the alley at the west of the property line, and continues 157’ east to the driveway entrance.
The request is to extend the one hour parking zone an additional 150’, to the east property line.
The request was made by the management company of the condominium complex because of businesses across the street parking multiple vehicles in front of the residential complex at all times of the day. Staff observed the location and noticed heavy parking in front of the complex.
The Community Safety Commission, at their regular meeting on September 9, approved recommending the extension.
RECOMMENDATION
The Community Safety Commission recommends that the City Council adopt the attached amendment to Resolution 84-39, authorizing extension of the one hour limited parking zone from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm located at 3000 South Street.

SUBJECT: Increase Authorization-Southland Industries HVAC Maintenance
INTRODUCTION
The Public Works department supplements its maintenance operations by utilizing contractors to provide routine citywide HVAC and refrigeration maintenance and repairsservices. On November 14, 2023, City Council authorized a contract with Southland Industries for HVAC and refrigeration preventative maintenance. Recently, equipment at the Centre and City Hall have required significant repairs to keep them in operation. Staff recommends the Southland agreement be amended to increase the not-to-exceed limit on the contract.
STATEMENT OF FACT
Southland has successfully provided HVAC and refrigeration system maintenance and repairs for the City. The scope of work includes inspection, repair, and maintenance of heating and cooling equipment and refrigeration at 15 different City properties consisting of 22 City buildings. The City needs to be able to respond to mechanical equipment failures for assessment and repair quickly, in order to not interrupt operations at our sites. Much of our equipment is aging, and as such the Public Works budgets funding for HVAC repairs, including replacing critical HVAC components, such as compressors, blower fans, etc.
Southland’s contract authorization for regular routine HVAC and refrigeration maintenance is in the amount of $69,974 a year, paid quarterly at $17,493.50, Southland’s agreement also includes an allowance for repairs and replacement parts and components for the refrigeration and HVAC systems to prevent overload, reduce energy consumption, and employee or client discomfort and to reduce administrative costs in the amount not-to-exceed $80,026. During the 2-year budget cycle,staff budgeted additional funds in the amount of $100,000 in Fiscal Year 24/25 and $100,000 in Fiscal Year 25/26 in anticipation of potential aging equipment failures at parks and facilities citywide. Since July, City Hall and the Centre have had several service calls for repairs to keep the equipment operating, utilizing a large portion of the contracted amount for service repairs. The HVAC equipment at these sites will be replaced in a larger, more-comprehensive CIP project that is anticipated to complete in FY 26/27.
To allow for the City to continue to quickly respond to equipment failures, critical component failures, and provide necessary repairs, staff recommends increasing the not-to-exceed limit of the Southland contract from $150,000 a year to $250,000 a year. This $100,000 increase would provide an additional allowance for repairs on top of the $80,026 in the allowance. The attached amendment to the existing on-call agreement increases the not-to-exceed limit to allow for repairs to be addressed in a timely manner. There are sufficient funds in the budget for this contract amendment.

SUBJECT: Justice Assistance Grant Program Funding for Expanding Network of Cameras
INTRODUCTION
Each year the City is eligible to receive an allocation of funds from the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program. The purpose of the program is to fund crime prevention efforts and criminal justice programs and projects.
STATEMENT OF FACTS
The City has been notified that we may claim an entitlement grant of $18,480 from the Justice Assistance Program and that the purchase of cameras, to include security cameras and license plate reader cameras, is an eligible expense. Utilizing available FY 2024 JAG funds, Lakewood can expand the current network of security cameras and/or license plate reader cameras to other parts of the city. The use of camera technology provides law enforcement an additional tool to combat criminal activity and crucial information during an investigation.
The JAG program requires the City Council to review the proposed project during a regularly scheduled meeting of the Council and allow an opportunity for the public to provide comment.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council:
1) Approve the proposed FY 2024 JAG Program funding project to expand Lakewood’s existing network of cameras for law enforcement purposes; 2) Authorize the Mayor to sign the Certifications and Assurances by the Chief Executive of the Applicant Government;
3) Authorize the City Manager to sign the appropriate award acceptance documents upon notification of the grant award;
4) Direct the Director of Finance & Administrative Services to appropriate $18,480 of JAG funds in the FY2024-2025 budget upon award and acceptance of grants fuijdS

COUNCIL AGENDA
October 8, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
SUBJECT: Resolution Approving the Infrastructure Financing Plan (IFP) for the Lakewood Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) and the Allocation of Property Tax Increment within the Lakewood EIFD
INTRODUCTION
As a result of the elimination of redevelopment agencies in California, the City of Lakewood (“City”) lost a tax increment financing (TIF) tool to invest in public facilities supporting the development of communities. In 2014, SB 628 created a new tax increment financing tool called the Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD). The original legislation has been amended to modify the EIFD formation procedural requirements and requirements to issue bonds to finance infrastructure.
STATEMENT OF FACTS
EIFDs aid cities in funding public facilities and other public investments to foster future development and increase property values. By capturing tax increment revenue generated within the district as new development occurs and property values increase over time, like a redevelopment project area, a portion of tax increment revenue is redirected from the taxing entity to theEIFD. Importantly, the establishment of EIFDs does not increase property taxes or any other taxes for landowners within or outside the EIFD boundaries.
The following chart illustrates how tax TIF captures that new revenue from new development into the EIFD (note these dollars are for illustrative purposes only):

EIFD -Resolution Approving the IFP
October 8, 2024
On May 28, 2024, the City Council adopted a Resolution of Intention to initiate the establishment of the City of Lakewood Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (Lakewood EIFD) and establish the Lakewood EIFD Public Financing Authority (PFA) as the governing body. On June 25, 2024, the County of Los Angeles (“County”) Board of Supervisors adopted a Resolution of Intention to participate in the Lakewood EIFD as a partner to the City.
Subsequently, on July 9, 2024, the PFA ordered the preparation of the Infrastructure Financing Plan (IFP) as required by the EIFD Law (California Government Code Section 53398.50 through 53398.88). The IFP is the legal document describing the EIFD, and it is to be adopted by the City Council, County Board of Supervisors, and PFA to guide the use of incremental tax revenues over the life of the EIFD. Public notices were mailed, information was posted on a dedicated website (
'https://www.lakewoodcitv.org/EIFDJ. and notices were also published in the newspaper, as required by law, to inform property owners and residents.
On August 13, 2024, the PFA received a presentation of the IFP, taking no action at that time.
Following that public meeting, the PFA must hold three public hearings before considering the approval of the IFP, The first public hearing was held on September 24, and a notice for the public hearing was published for four consecutive weeks in advance of that date.
To date, City staff and its EIFD consultants have received two public inquiries regarding the EIFD, both of which from property owners seeking to understand the potential implications of EIFD implementation on their properties. Following responses to all questions, feedback from property owners was positive and supportive of the EIFD.
ANALYSIS
The current IFP is included in the Resolution as Exhibit A. It contains all items required by California Government Code Section 53398.63. A summary of the key requirements contained in the IFP is provided below.
EIFD Map and Legal Description. The proposed EIFD boundaries are focused on the Lakewood Center shopping center and various other development opportunity sites, including Housing Development Opportunity Sites identified in the City’s Housing Element (properties with potential for new development or rehabilitation). The land included in theseboundariestotals approximately 352acres(approx. 5.8% of the City) and approximately $1.03 billion in existing assessed property value.
1. 2. Public Facilities and Development Proposed within the EIFD. The public capital facilities proposed to be financed through the EIFD include:
• Water, sewer, and other utility capacity enhancements for new development and rehabilitation of aging commercial sites
• Affordable housing
• Water reclamation improvements
• Parking / circulation improvements
• Lakewood Boulevard Corridor Smart Streets (utility undergrounding, bike lanes, bus rapid transit infrastructure)

3. Use of Incremental Tax Revenue. The EIFD will use incremental property tax revenue to finance public facilities and maintenance of those public facilities, and administration of the EIFD. The City would allocate a maximum of 50% of its future share of future property tax increment within the EIFD, and the County would match the City’s allocation dollar-for-dollar. Based on projected growth of assessed value, total EIFD funding capacity is estimated at approximately $60 million on a present-value basis.
5. Necessity and Goals of the EIFD: The formation of the EIFD is necessary to assist in the financing of the construction of the targeted public facilities that serve the EIFD boundary and surrounding community while providing significant communitywide benefits. These public facilities will catalyze private sector investment and development to support the City's General Plan and provide the infrastructure foundation for the development of critically needed housing in the community and greater region.
6. Economic and Fiscal Impacts: Establishing the EIFD is a necessary step towards the successful development of the public facilities and other projects of communitywide significance, which will generate significant economic benefits to the City, County, and other taxing entities. Fiscal impact analysis prepared by Kosmont Companies as Appendix D to the IFP estimates that EIFD activity would generate approximately $11 million in net positive general fund revenues on present value basis for the City. Additionally, the Analysis highlights the job opportunities generated by the EIFD, including approximately 9,300 direct, indirect, and induced temporary constructedrelated jobs and over 810 permanent ongoing jobs in the City and County.
Next Steps
The County Board of Supervisors must approve the IFP, and the PFA must hold two more public hearings before final approval of the IFP. These public meetings and hearings are scheduled to occur in October and November. If the IFP is modified after City Council action this evening, the modified IFP would be required to return to the City Council for approval prior to EIFD formation.
The PFA may adopt the IFP at the third public hearing to form the EIFD. A summary of the key actions for establishing the EIFD, as well as estimated dates of completion, is as follows:

October 8, 2024
In the event of a majority protest by property owners or residents within the boundaries, the formation proceedings would be discontinued.
CEQA REVIEW
The City Council’s adoption of the Resolution approving the EIFD IFP is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as they are actions solely related to the creation of a government funding mechanism and the administrative or organizational activities of the City, Therefore, this action does not constitute a “project” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(4) and 15378(b)(5). This action could not result in a physical change in the environment because the City has not committed itself to any specific project(s) that could be funded by the EIFD. As aseparate and independent ground,this action is exemptfrom the requirements of CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that they will have a significant effect on the environment. However, future actions (such as the approval of infrastructure improvements using funding from the EIFD) will be subject to environmental review in accordance with CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no immediate fiscal impact for establishing the Lakewood EIFD. If ultimately established, the EIFD would create the opportunity to use tax increment financing to fund targeted infrastructure investments in the City. If the EIFD is formed, future budget actions will be required to budget the allocation of incremental tax revenues to the EIFD.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt proposed resolution approving the Infrastructure Financing Plan (IFP) for thjy,- Lakewood Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) and the allocation of pr within the Lakewood EIFD. S

Infrastructure Financing Plan
July 2024
1.0 Introduction
1.1 Background & Purpose
The proposed Lakewood Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (“Lakewood EIFD” or “District”) will serve as a catalyst for private development and critical regional infrastructure with transformative potential for the City of Lakewood (“City”) and larger Los Angeles County (“County”) region. The Lakewood EIFD encompasses approximately 352 acres of land, representing approximately 6% of the total land area within the City. The Lakewood EIFD includes the Lakewood Center Mall and various other housing and blended-use development opportunity sites within the City that stand to benefit from catalytic infrastructure improvements with communitywide and regional benefit. The District represents a partnership between the City and the County, and as such, will be funded by property tax increment from both taxing entities.
1.2 Contents and Overview of this Infrastructure Financing Plan (“IFP”) Pursuant to Government Code Sections 53398.59 through 53398.74, this IFP comprises the following information:
a) A map and legal description of the District, included herein as Appendix A and Appendix B, respectively.
b) A description of the public facilities and other forms of development or financial assistance that is proposed in the area of the district, including those to be provided by the private sector, those to be provided by governmental entities without assistance under this chapter, those public improvements and facilities to be financed with assistance from the proposed district, and those to be provided jointly. The description shall include the proposed location, timing, and costs of the development and financial assistance. This information is included in Section 3 of this IFP.
c) If funding from affected taxing entities is incorporated into the financing plan, a finding that the development and financial assistance are of communitywide significance and provide significant benefits to an area larger than the area of the district. This information is included in Section 4 of this IFP.
d) A financing section (included in Section 5 of this IFP), which shall contain all of the following information:
a. A specification of the maximum portion of the incremental tax revenue of the city or county and of each affected taxing entity proposed to be committed to the district for each year during which the district will receive incremental tax revenue.
The portion need not be the same for all affected taxing entities. The portion may Lakewood EIFD
Infrastructure Financing Plan
July 2024
change over time. The maximum portion of the City’s property tax increment to be committed to the District will be 50% throughout the duration of the District lifetime.
The maximum portion of the County’s property tax increment to be committed to the District will be 21% throughout duration of the District lifetime. b. A projection of the amount of tax revenues expected to be received by the district in each year during which the district will receive tax revenues, including an estimate of the amount of tax revenues attributable to each affected taxing entity for each year. Section 5.3 of this IFP includes a projection of tax revenues to be received by the District from each participating taxing entity by year over the course of the projected District lifetime. These projections are based on research and analysis of available data at the time of IFP preparation for purposes of illustration. Actual results may differ from those expressed in this document.
Appendix C provides additional detail for the projected revenue analysis. c. A plan for financing the public facilities to be assisted by the district, including a detailed description of any intention to incur debt. Section 5.4 of this IFP includes a plan for financing the public facilities to be assisted by the District. The Public Financing Authority (“PFA”) governing the District intends to incur debt only when it is financially prudent to do so. It is estimated at this time that the Lakewood EIFD will contribute approximately $60 million in present-value dollars to public improvements and affordable housing projects from a combination of bond or loan proceeds (multiple issuances may be necessary) and pay-as-you-go funding over the District lifetime. This is equivalent to approximately $147 million in nominal dollars (i.e., not adjusting for inflation).
d. A limit on the total number of dollars of taxes that may be allocated to the district pursuant to the plan. The total number of dollars or taxes that may be allocated to the District shall not exceed $400,000,000 (nominal dollars). This represents a maximum allocation of $200,000,000 from the City and $200,000,000 from the County over the District lifetime (nominal dollars).
e. A date on which the district will cease to exist, by which time all tax allocation to the district will end. The date shall not be more than 45 years from the date on which the issuance of bonds is approved pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 53398.81, or the issuance of a loan is approved by the governing board of a local agency pursuant to Section 53398.87. The District will cease to exist the earlier of: (i) forty five (45) years from the date on which the first issuance of bonds or acquisition of a loan is approved by the PFA, or (ii) June 30, 2076. This IFP assumes that the base year for the District will be Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and that the District will begin receiving tax revenues in Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

f. An analysis of the costs to the city or county of providing facilities and services to the area of the district while the area is being developed and after the area is developed. The plan shall also include an analysis of the tax, fee, charge, and other revenues expected to be received by the city or county as a result of expected development in the area of the district. Appendix D to this IFP includes, as part of the Fiscal Impact Analysis, an analysis of the costs to the City and County for providing facilities and services to the area of the District. It is estimated that, at Year 20 of the District lifetime (assumed stabilized buildout of District area), annual costs to the City will be approximately $5.8 million, and annual costs to the County will be approximately $4.2 million to service the area of the District. g. An analysis of the projected fiscal impact of the district and the associated development upon each affected taxing entity. Appendix D to this IFP includes an analysis of the projected fiscal impact of the District and the associated development upon both the City and the County, as the only two affected taxing entities that are contributing tax increment revenues to the District. It is estimated that, at Year 20 of the District lifetime, the District area will generate an annual net fiscal surplus of approximately $430,000 to the City and an annual net fiscal surplus of approximately $2.4 million to the County.
h. A plan for financing any potential costs that may be incurred by reimbursing a developer of a project that is both located entirely within the boundaries of that district and qualifies for the Transit Priority Project Program, pursuant to Section 65470, including any permit and affordable housing expenses related to the project. At this time, the PFA does not intend to finance any potential costs that may be incurred by reimbursing a developer of a project that is both located entirely within the boundaries of the District and qualifies for the Transit Priority Project Program, pursuant to Section 65470.
e) If any dwelling units within the territory of the district are proposed to be removed or destroyed in the course of public works construction within the area of the district or private development within the area of the district that is subject to a written agreement with the district or that is financed in whole or in part by the district, a plan providing for replacement of those units and relocation of those persons or families consistent with the requirements of Section 53398.56. The PFA does not anticipate that any housing units will be removed as a result of any project identified in this IFP. However, if any relocation of dwelling units is deemed to be required in the future for a project financed by the District, the PFA will comply with the requirements of Government Code Section 53398.56.
f) The goals the district proposes to achieve for each project financed pursuant to Section 53398.52. Section 7 of this IFP summarizes the goals of each project to be financed by the District.

the formation of the EIFD itself, and/or other sources. The City has already formed a Community Facilities District (“CFD”) with a Citywide annexation area for new and/or intensified development to assist with ongoing services and maintenance needs in the City.
Private sector developers will be responsible for funding project-specific / fair-share / in-tract infrastructure, unless otherwise outlined in this IFP. Some public facilities included in the EIFD area are anticipated to be provided by governmental entities without assistance from the District.
There are no public facilities anticipated to be provided jointly by the private sector and governmental entities, however it is possible that private sector developers may advance funding for improvements such as brownfield site remediation, with anticipation to be partially reimbursed with EIFD proceeds. Such case-specific agreements would come before the PFA for approval at the appropriate time.

4.0 Finding of Communitywide
Significance
Implementation of the District promotes the goals of and is consistent with the City’s General Plan, serves as a catalyst for private sector investment and critical public infrastructure with transformative potential for the Lakewood EIFD area and the City as a whole. The District supports job creation, housing production, and improvement of quality of life.
Specific communitywide and regional benefits anticipated to be generated by the District include:
• Approximately $11 million in net fiscal surplus to the City over 50 years (on a presentvalue basis) • Approximately $43 million in net fiscal impact to County over 50 years (on a present-value basis)
• Approximately 1,950 housing units within the District • Approximately 9,362 direct, indirect, and induced temporary, construction-related jobs in the City and County
• Approximately 547 direct, permanent jobs in the City
• Approximately 277 additional indirect and induced permanent jobs in the City and County (total of 824 direct, indirect, and induced jobs)
• Approximately $1.4 billion in economic output from construction in the City and County • Approximately $119 million in annual ongoing economic output in the City and County.
Lakewood EIFD
Infrastructure Financing Plan
July 2024
5.0 Financing Section
The Lakewood EIFD represents a partnership between the City and County, and as such, will be funded by property tax increment from both taxing entities. No other taxing entity is contributing property tax increment to the District. It is anticipated that property tax increment will be utilized on both a “pay-as-you-go” basis as well as security for tax increment bond issuance or loan acquisition.
Portions of the Lakewood EIFD are located within the boundaries of the former Redevelopment Project Area of the former Redevelopment Agency of Lakewood, and so property tax revenues generated by the properties within the overlapping area will flow according to the Redevelopment Agency dissolution statutes until all of the Successor Agency’s obligations are retired (currently anticipated in 2041). Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (“RPTTF”) residual revenues are intended to be contributed by the City and County to the District as part of the maximum allocations outlined in the following sections.
The analysis and projections herein reflect the City’s intention to dedicate incremental property tax revenue allocated to the City in lieu of motor vehicle license fees to the District pursuant to Government Code Section 53398.75(e)(1) in addition and in proportion to incremental “AB8” property tax.
5.1 Maximum Portion of Incremental Tax Revenue Dedicated to the District The maximum portion of the City’s property tax increment to be committed to the District will be 50% throughout the District lifetime. The maximum portion of the County’s property tax increment to be committed to the District will be 21% throughout the District lifetime.
5.2 Projection of District Tax Revenues by Year
Table 3 provides an overview of the projected growth of assessed value, property tax increment, and City and County contributions to the District over the District lifetime. It is expected that a total of approximately $73.7 million of incremental tax revenues will be allocated to the District by the City, and a total of approximately $73.7 million of incremental tax revenues will be allocated to the District by the County, for a total allocation of taxes revenues to the EIFD of approximately $147.3 million.

These projections are based on research and analysis of available data at the time of IFP preparation for purposes of illustration. Actual results may differ from those expressed in this document. Appendix C provides additional detail for the projected revenue analysis.
5.3 Plan for Financing Public Facilities
The PFA intends to utilize numerous funding sources and financing mechanisms to implement the projects identified in Section 3.2, potentially including District tax increment, grant sources, impact fees, private sector investment, and/or other sources.
As it pertains to the use of District tax increment, the PFA intends to incur debt only when it is financially prudent to do so. It is estimated at this time that approximately $60 million of EIFD funding (in present value dollars) will be made available through bond or loan proceeds and payas-you-go proceeds over the District lifetime. It may be the case that multiple debt issuances will be necessary to achieve the targeted funding capacity.
5.4 Limit on Total Dollars Allocated to the District
The total number of dollars or taxes that may be allocated to the District shall not exceed $400,000,000 (nominal dollars). This represents a maximum allocation of $200,000,000 from the City and $200,000,000 from the County over the District lifetime.
The limit on the total number of dollars that the City and County will contribute to the EIFD shall be defined as the annual amount of the City and County contributions that is needed to pay bond payments, or otherwise fund the approved list of infrastructure and other projects and expenses of the District, with an estimated allocation of approximately $60 million (in present value dollars) over the entire District lifetime. The infrastructure and other projects shall be considered fully funded when all projects have been financed by bonds, excess tax increment, or other funds. In the following fiscal year after the projects have been fully funded, and any year thereafter up to the time limit, any City and County contributions in excess of remaining bond payments shall be returned by the EIFD to the City and County according to their respective proportions. The EIFD shall provide the County an annual accounting of the status of the funding of the approved infrastructure projects and notify the County when they have been fully funded.
To the extent a computation of the limit on total dollars allocated to the district is needed in future dollars at some time in the future, the analysis shall utilize as a benchmark index the California Department of General Services (DGS) California Construction Cost Index (CCCI).
The PFA authorizes the County, throughout the existence of the PFA and the District, to review the PFA’s calculations to determine if excess property tax increment revenue exists, as defined above, in any given year. The PFA shall cooperate with such review by providing reasonable access, inspection privileges, and copies of the PFA’s and/or District's records to County staff upon request, as necessary to review the PFA’s calculations. In the event a County review determines excess property tax increment revenue exists, the PFA shall return such excess back to the City and County in proportion to those entities' contributions to the excess amount.

5.5 District Termination Date
The District will cease to exist the earlier of: (i) forty five (45) years from the date on which the first issuance of bonds or acquisition of a loan is approved by the PFA, or (ii) June 30, 2076. This IFP assumes that that the base year for the District will be Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and that the District will begin receiving tax revenues in Fiscal Year 2026-2027.
5.6 Analysis of Costs to Provide Facilities and Services Appendix D to this IFP includes, as part of the Fiscal Impact Analysis, an analysis of the costs to the City and County for providing facilities and services to the area of the District. It is estimated that, at Year 20 of the District lifetime (assumed stabilized buildout of District area), annual costs to the City will be approximately $5.8 million, and annual costs to the County will be approximately $4.2 million to service the area of the District.
5.7 Fiscal Impact Analysis
Appendix D to this IFP includes an analysis of the projected fiscal impact of the District and the associated development upon both the City and the County, as the only two affected taxing entities that are contributing tax increment revenues to the District. Table 5 presents an overview of fiscal impacts to the City and County.
Table 5: Overview of Fiscal Impacts to City and County
It is estimated that, at Year 20 of the District lifetime, the District area will generate an annual net fiscal surplus of approximately $430,000 to the City and an annual net fiscal surplus of approximately $2.4 million the County. Over 50 years, District activity will generate a positive net fiscal impact of approximately $11.0 million for the City and approximately $43.2 million for the County on a present-value basis. This is in addition to the Community economic benefits outlined in Section 4 of this IFP (e.g. jobs, housing, remediation of contamination, connectivity, active transportation).

5.8 Developer Reimbursement for Transit Priority Project The PFA does not intend to finance any potential costs that may be incurred by reimbursing a developer of a project that is both located entirely within the boundaries of the District and qualifies for the Transit Priority Project Program, pursuant to Section 65470. To the extent that a developer is willing to fund Transit Priority Project infrastructure expenditures beyond and in advance of said developer’s fair share (not contemplated at this time), the PFA may consider and evaluate such reimbursement at the appropriate time.

7.0 Goals of the District
As stated in the Resolution of Intention, the goal of the Lakewood EIFD is to assist in the provision of public facilities of communitywide significance that provide significant benefits and promote economic development within the boundaries of the Lakewood EIFD and the surrounding community and, for those facilities located outside the Lakewood EIFD boundaries which also have a tangible connection to the Lakewood EIFD.
More specifically, the goals of the District’s implementation of the public facilities outlined in Section 3.2 are to support the City’s General Plan and serve as a catalyst for private sector investment and critical public infrastructure with transformative potential for the Lakewood EIFD area and the City as a whole. The District additionally aims to implement Statewide policy goals of housing supply and sustainable infrastructure investment.
Additional objectives include economic development in the form of fiscal revenue generation for the City, County, and other taxing entities, job creation, housing production, improvement of quality of life, and promotion of environmental sustainability. The District will be utilized to address critical infrastructure funding needs, which are are critical to catalyze private sector investment and development.

COUNCIL AGENDA
October 8, 2024
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
SUBJECT: Information Technology Services Agreement
INTRODUCTION
For over 16 years, the city has contracted with the City of Brea’s BrealT Solutions (BrealT).
They have provided full information technology (IT) management services supporting the city’s wide area network, encompassing City Hall and 14 other facilities serving over 200 users, In many cases, these IT resources operate on a 24/7 basis with the quality and reliability of the services being critical to the city’s ability to function.
STATEMENT OF FACT
The last five years of support services come after being selected through a comprehensive Request for Proposals (RFP) process in mid-2019. As discussed during the budget study session in June, BrealT’s recent internal evaluation of their cost model prompted a proposed 17% rate increase. After much discussion with BrealT management staff, it was determined that it would be more cost-effective to create two full-time employee positions and offer them to the two staff members currently assigned by BrealT. Both employees are long-term members of the BrealT team and highly valued as staff solely assigned to the city for over a decade. In discussions with both BrealT members after the adoption of the budget, they informed staff of their decision to rather retire from the City of Brea at the end of December 2024. While they appreciated the city’s offer of employment, the transition was an opportunity for them to consider their options with the prospect of retirement outweighing other choices.
As a result, staff embarked on finding a suitable firm to take over the city's IT functions. Staff posted and distributed an RFP in late August 2024 asking firms to provide a proposal for a threeyear term, plus two optional one-year extensions. Ten IT firms responded with proposals. Staff reviewed and rated the proposals based on a comprehensive set of factors including their relevant experience, key personnel qualifications, breadth of services, and cost. Subsequently, staff interviewed three finalists and further narrowed the selection to a single provider.
Based on the proposals submitted and interviews conducted, staff determined that Infinity Technologies (Infinity) is the most qualified company to provide IT services.

With 62 employees, it provides IT and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) support to more than 80 clients ranging from local government agencies to healthcare organizations and educational institutions.

region includes: Paramount, Signal Hill, La Mirada, La Palma, Stanton, Tustin, Bell, Pico Rivera. Additionally, they have succeeded BrealT at various client locations and helped transition similar former BrealT clients. Infinity’s proposed assessment, transition, and communication plan are well-thought out and complement the city’s IT needs, While cost was but one of four rating factors, it is important to note for budget purposes that Infinity's proposed cost was the lowest among the finalists. Their proposal includes a fixed cost of $299,950 for each of the first three years of service. Option years four and five are subject to negotiated increases where Infinity may increase the cost based on the consumer's price index (CPI).
Given the institutional knowledge maintained by current BrealT personnel, staff is proposing that Infinity begin their service on November 1, 2024, allowing for a two month overlap prior to the retirement of BrealT staff on December 31, 2024.
Attached is Infinity's proposal.

One of our most challenging onboarding experiences involved limited availability from the client's previous managed service provider.

PROPOSED INNOVATIONS
In our experience working with various public agencies and private clients, we have implemented several technical and procedural innovations that have significantly enhanced IT service delivery and generated cost savings. These innovations include:
» Transitioning from on-premises infrastructure to virtual servers and adopting cloud-based Software as a Service (SaaS) offers numerous benefits including cost savings, flexibility, enhanced accessibility and improved security and compliance. o For example, optimizing Office 365 Environment: Leveraging the full range of Office 365 features—such as collaboration tools, automated workflows, and integrated security— can enhance productivity, streamline communications, and provide robust data protection.
» One-Stop Shop IT Services: We are a proven one-stop shop for IT services offering specialized expertise in various IT areas. We offer a more holistic approach, with clear accountability for performance and results. We provide a streamlined model with a single point of contact, troubleshooting, and support ensuring efficient and seamless service delivery. » Vendor Consolidation: We thoroughly review vendors, suppliers, and contracts and will make recommendations for consolidating vendor services where it makes sense. By streamlining contracts and relationships, service integration can be improved and vendor relationships strengthened. This process has led to simplified billing, more consistent support, and cost efficiencies through bundled services for many of our municipal clients. » Cybersecurity: We focus on strengthening each of our clients’ cybersecurity posture by providing regular trainings for users, working with management to create IT policy and procedures to remain current, and working with agencies like the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). A strong cybersecurity focus helps agencies protect sensitive data, comply with industry-specific regulations and standards, and mitigate risks and vulnerabilities to help ensure business continuity.
By introducing these proven enhancements, the City can benefit from more reliable IT operations, reduced operational costs, and improved service delivery, all while maintaining a secure and flexible infrastructure.
Service Level Agreement
We define clear Service Level Agreement (SLA) terms and metrics for delivery of our managed services and seek to optimize cost efficiencies. We believe our SLA responsiveness and commitments surpass other managed service providers offering similar services and will consult with the City to tailor a SLA that ensures our service delivery consistently meets or exceeds your response-time expectations. Our response times during regular business hours are generally one to two (1-2) hours for Low Priority issues, one (1) hour for Medium Priority issues, and 15 to 30 minutes for High Priority issues.
Summarized below are the key elements of our standard SLA which can be customized as needed:
City of Lakewood | Information Technology Managed Services 28 One-reach local phone number and email address for emergency support. Provide 24/7/365 support.
Respond to emergency outages within 15 to 30 minutes during regular hours. Respond to emergency outages within 30 minutes during non-business hours. In case of an emergency, be on site within two hours. Provide unlimited technical phone support.
Trouble Tickets will be acknowledged within 30 minutes during regular business hours. Standby support, with a maximum response time of 30 minutes outside regular work hours.

COUNCIL AGENDA
October 8, 2024
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
SUBJECT: Adaptive Recreation and Special Olympics Annual Report
INTRODUCTION
Since 1981, the City of Lakewood has proudly served the intellectually and physically disabled population through the Adaptive Recreation Program (ARP). In 1990, Lakewood Special Olympics was established as the program’s athletic counterpart. Since their inception, these two programs have seen incredible growth throughout the years, and have made a positive impact on the lives of the participants they serve. The main objective of these programs is to provide equal and equitable recreation and leisure opportunities for individuals with special needs. Each year, the clients experience a variety of programming and athletic competition, providing healthy social outlets, independent living skills, educational and mentoring events, and inclusive opportunities.
STATEMENT OF FACT
Adaptive Recreation Program
ARP takes place at Bloomfield Park. Participants meet every Tuesday, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.
Recreation staff plan, implement, and supervise weekly activities for the drop-in participants.
There are four, three-month sessions that follow the seasons. Activities include arts and crafts, athletics, life skills workshops, special events, and educational excursions. Each session requires a small fee of approximately $26 for the daily program, and a $5 fee per special event.
Additional program support comes from the Lakewood DASH Transit program, which provides free transportation to and from the program for Lakewood resident participants. Participants must register for the program on a yearly basis. In addition to weekly programming, Bloomfield Park staff also facilitate at least one special event each month for participants. ARP also provides athletic training to the athletes at different times of the year, at no charge.
Special Olympics
The Special Olympics program in Lakewood is a sports program dedicated to promoting inclusivity and empowerment for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
This program offers a diverse range of athletic opportunities, encompassing seven different sports throughout the year. In the spring, participants can engage in basketball and bocce, The summer season features the exciting sport of bowling. During the fall, the program continues to offer opportunities such as soccer, softball, tennis, and golf. These activities not only enhance physical fitness but also encourage social interaction and personal growth. One of the highlights of the program is its involvement in various competitions throughout the year, including the prestigious summer and fall games. These events give athletes a platform to showcase their

abilities and represent their community on a larger stage. Overall, the Special Olympics program in Lakewood stands as a beacon of inclusivity, offering a wide spectrum of sports to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. It fosters personal development, teamwork, and a strong sense of belonging while providing opportunities for athletes to compete at various levels.
Below is a chart with annual participation for each sport offered in the Special Olympics program. It is important to note that COVID-19 still played a significant role with the developmentally disabled population and thus Special Olympics Southern California (SOSC) maintained restrictions longer than most organizations due to risks with the population. Further, due to the nature of how the sport of bocce is played, availability opened to athletes for bocce before other sports. This resulted in a spike in participation in 2021-2022 to athletes who were eager to join in any form of social and physical program. The chart demonstrates a revision to the norm in the two subsequent years.

A Year of Continued Success
The year 2024 has been remarkable for the Lakewood Adaptive Recreation Program (ARP) and Special Olympics program, both of which have experienced significant growth in participant engagement. There has been an increase in Special Olympics offerings, including competitions and additional opportunities for athletes.
In February, Karson Lawson was named Lakewood Special Olympics Athlete of the Year, by the Lakewood Hall of Fame Board of Electors, at the annual dinner and awards ceremony. During the spring season, both the bocce and basketball teams participated in highly competitive events.
The athletes demonstrated exceptional sportsmanship and determination, earning accolades and respect from peers and competitors alike. In recognition of their hard work throughout the season, Special Olympics Southern California (SOSC) graciously invited the Mud Dogs Bocce team to the Summer State Games held at Cal State Long Beach. After two days of intense competition, the bocce team secured a bronze medal, showcasing their dedication, skill, and teamwork. In the summer, the bowling program thrived, welcoming 15 new athletes, which Adaptive Recreation and Special Olympics Annual Report

brought the total to 40 enthusiastic bowlers competing in various events throughout July and August. The highlight of the summer season was the Bowling Championship held in Lakewood, where several athletes earned medals, further affirming their commitment to excellence. This was the first time that SOSC has ever held one of their championship events in Lakewood, as the competition commenced at Cal Bowl. As the fall season approaches, city staff and athletes are preparing to compete in soccer, softball, and golf, with the goal of attending the State Fall Games in November.
The Adaptive Recreation Program continued to thrive in 2024, hosting eleven successful events that catered to the diverse interests and needs of the participants. Highlights included popular dances at Bloomfield Park, such as the Prom and Luau, along with exciting excursions like Long Beach State Sports Nights, Cosmic Bowling, and Dinner & a Movie. The ongoing support of the Lakewood Women's Club has been instrumental to the success of the ARP in 2024. Their involvement enhanced several events, notably the 2024 ARP Prom, BBQ and Pool Party, and ARP Luau, where they provided food and resources that enriched the overall experience for participants. Their continued support is expected to have a significant impact on the program in 2025 and beyond. Additionally, city staff planned engaging lesson plans for weekly programming on Tuesdays, featuring history lessons, life skills, arts and crafts, and excursions to places like the Lakewood Community Gardens.
As demonstrated by the increased enrollment for the spring session, 2024 has been a year of growth, achievement, and community support for the Lakewood Adaptive Recreation Program and Special Olympics program. The dedication of the athletes, the commitment of city staff, and the generosity of the Lakewood Women's Club have all played crucial roles in the program's success. City staff look forward to building on these accomplishments in the coming years, continuing to provide inclusive and enriching experiences for all participants.
SUMMARY
The Recreation and Community Services Department proudly coordinates the Adaptive Recreation and Special Olympics programs. City staff are proud to provide engaging, accessible, and educational programming for participants. Both programs continue to invite intellectually and physically disabled children, teens, and adults to participate in mentoring and athletic activities in a healthy, positive and welcoming setting. The result encourages a better quality of life for participants through recreational options.
