Lomita City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
April 4, 2023

8. SCHEDULED ITEMS
a. DISCUSSION REGARDING SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Receive the information presented, discuss, and if desired, provide further direction.

City Manager Smoot presented the staff report per the agenda material. He outlined past efforts by the City relative to allowing fireworks, including two advisory measures. The City Council took action to rescind those measures later, and some minor amendments have been made to City policy in recent history, mostly relative to fines. He outlined enforcement efforts and related costs to the City, and discussed how some L.A. County cities allow sales of “safe and sane” fireworks while prohibiting the use of unapproved fireworks. In such cases, a limited number of permits for stands are issued by such cities, generally to community groups and non-profits serving the community directly, and sales are often a major fundraising source for these groups. However, cities surveyed note continued challenges and significant costs with enforcement, as well as continued or increased use of illegal fireworks.

There was brief Council discussion relative to a possible surcharge on sales of fireworks (if “safe and sane” ones are made legal again in the future) in the City to go toward enforcement efforts, just how safe the “safe and sane” fireworks actually are, and the hazards of regular fireworks causing brushfires. Consideration was given to gathering opinions on the matter from residents via a community survey later this year.

John Kelly, Vice President of TNT Fireworks, was invited to speak. He stated that 35 cities put this issue to ballot and the voters of each decided to allow the “safe and sane” fireworks. TNT Fireworks offers the free Nail ‘em app, which allows for anonymous reporting of illegal fireworks activity to local public safety agencies. He added that some cities have surcharges on the sales of fireworks, and that he would research how that works.

City Manager Smoot mentioned that Lomita residents can email the City’s Code Enforcement anonymously to report illegal fireworks.

Mayor Waite opened the public hearing at 6:55 p.m.

Henry Sanchez, Lomita resident, stated that he was disappointed when Lomita no longer allowed “safe and sane” fireworks, but even if they were allowed, people would still use illegal fireworks as well. He added that adjacent jurisdictions must be considered, especially up on the hill, as there have been brushfires due to fireworks, and that use of illegal fireworks often results in injuries.

As there were no further requests from the public to speak on this item, Mayor Waite closed the public hearing at 6:57 p.m. and brought the item back to the Council.

It was the consensus of the Council to direct staff to include in the next community survey questions on whether to allow “safe and sane” fireworks in Lomita, to consider a pilot test of the Nail ‘em app, and to research the feasibility of a “safe and sane” fireworks sales surcharge to aid the City in enforcement of illegal fireworks should the “safe and sane” variety be made legal in Lomita.

9. PUBLIC HEARINGS
a. DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING LOMITA

MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE VI (BUSINESSES, PROFESSIONS AND TRADES), CHAPTER 8 (MASSAGE BUSINESSES AND PRACTITIONERS) TO CLARIFY LANGUAGE AND SPECIFY REGULATIONS (No staff report)
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Continue the item to the April 18, 2023, City Council meeting.

Director Rindge requested continuation of this item to the April 18, 2023, City Council meeting.

Mayor Waite opened the public hearing at 7:00 p.m. As no members of the public requested to speak on this item, he asked for a motion from the Council to continue the public hearing.

MOTION CARRIED by the following vote:

AYES: Council Members: Segawa, Waronek, Mayor Pro Tem Uphoff, and Mayor Waite
NOES: None
ABSENT: Council Member Gazeley
b. DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT NO. 2023-02,

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING LOMITA MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE XI (PLANNING AND

ZONING) TO MODIFY OFF-STREET PARKING RESTRICTIONS AND PERMIT

ADDITIONAL TYPES OF PARKING LOT SIGNS, TO ADD DEFINITIONS RECOMMENDED ACTION: After the City Attorney reads the title of the ordinance, accept the recommendation of the Planning Commission and introduce on first reading an ordinance amending Lomita’s Municipal Code Sections 11-1.15(D) and 11-1.15(S) (Definitions), Section 11-1.66.05 to modify off-street parking regulations and Article 67 to modify sign regulations, find the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, and direct staff to schedule the second reading and adoption of the ordinance.

Associate Planner MacMorran presented the staff report per the agenda material. The City’s Code is out of step with the parking needs of contemporary retail stores. Inclusion of designated (as for customer pickup of online orders) and short-term (as for Uber Eats and the like) parking spaces is now the norm.

There was brief Council discussion relative to enforcement responsibility of parking time limits, designated parking for a single tenant, and short-term parking shared by all tenants of a shopping center.

Director Rindge stated that the Lomita Chamber of Commerce supports the ordinance.

2 Emergency Management
The City was awarded a FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant in the amount of $1,124,884.50 for the 247th Street Area Water Main Replacement Project. Design is currently underway but obtaining the necessary permits from the City of Los Angeles took much longer than expected, significantly putting the project behind schedule. Staff were granted a one-year extension to complete the project due to this delay. A new quarterly report was submitted on April 3, 2023, indicating that Lomita received an approved encroachment permit and traffic control plans from the City of Los Angeles for this project. Lomita’s design consultant worked with their subconsultant to complete potholing and the final design of the project has been submitted to the city for final review. The design phase is approximately 85% complete.

Staff submitted a Notice of Interest (NOI) to update the City’s Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) to the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMPG). The NOI was approved, and the city was invited to submit a full subapplication. Staff worked with a grant writer to submit the subapplication on April 8, 2022. On January 25, 2023, staff received notification that CalOES submitted the supplication to FEMA for funding consideration. A status check on May 9, 2023 through the online portal indicates the subapplication is still under FEMA review.

Staff held a meeting with the Area G DMAC to conduct a preliminary review of Lomita’s Emergency Response. As part of our efforts, the EOC’s Position Assignment Log was recently updated, and we are initiating the GETS cards distribution. Staff coordinated with LA County Fire to review earthquake safety at Lomita Manor on May 16. Staff anticipates presenting the review, efforts, and recommendations to the City Council in June.

Lomita Manor
As COVID restrictions continue to be lifted, the Lomita Manor property management company, HumanGood, has restored several activities that have been previously postponed due to COVID. These activities include Exercise/Chair class, Coloring class, and Seasonal Holiday activities such as the St Patrick’s Celebration and Easter Egg Craft. Additional activities that have been added/restored include Bingo, Walking Group and Monthly Celebrations of residents’ birthdays with cake. The property management team will continue to explore additional activities for the residents at Lomita Manor. In addition to these activities, Lomita Manor's Recreation room is open to the residents.

The roof repair that began in March is now complete. Repairs were critical due to the poor condition of the roofs resulting in leaks during the periods of heavy rain.

Community Development Block Grant Programs
On February 7, 2023, the Community Development Advisory Board (CDAB) approved the CDBG roster (budget) for FY 23-24 in the amount of $140,077 to fund Residential Rehabilitation, Lifeline and the Job Creation and Business Incentive Loan Programs.

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 34
3 Residential Rehabilitation: For Fiscal Year 2023-24, a total of two projects are scheduled to be completed.

Lifeline: The Lifeline program provides emergency response service for a total of 20 subscribers now currently enrolled. The program is accepting applications from Lomita residents who are at least 55 years old or disabled.

BACKGROUND:

Water Division Updates
Cypress Water Production Facility (CWPF) and Distribution System Update Well No. 5 remains offline due to the detection of benzene and the construction project to upgrade the CWPF. The State’s Division of Drinking Water (DDW) and the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) have been investigating possible sources of benzene, and information is available at https://www.lomitawater.com/news/.

In April 2023, the City pumped 0.0 acre-feet of groundwater from Well No. 5. All drinking water was supplied with imported water from West Basin MWD. In April 2023, the City imported 143.6 acre-feet from West Basin MWD. Monthly water reports can be found at www.lomitawater.com/oversight/water-quality-reports/.

The City hosted a water tour at the CWPF on April 20th for four community members.

Residents who are interested in touring the facility may sign up for a monthly tour at https://www.lomitawater.com/water-tours/.

Street Reconstruction – Zone G
This project consists of overlaying and reconstructing certain streets in Zones G (just north and south of Lomita Boulevard and east of Eshelman Avenue), as detailed in the Pavement Management Program (PMP). This project includes significant repairs and resurfacing of streets where slurry seal would not be sufficient to extend the life of the street.

The design of the project was awarded to David Evans and Associates in July 2022 and is scheduled to be completed in the first half of 2023. Extensive field investigation and sampling have taken place to evaluate the road condition on the 17 streets included in this project. The City has received these technical reports. Construction of the project is programmed for Spring 2024.

247th Street Area Watermain Project
This project consists of abandoning a watermain that runs north and south within private properties crossing 246th Street, 247th Street, 247th Place, and 248th Street. The proposed new water main will extend from 246th Street beyond the City boundaries, looping within the City of Los Angeles right of way and along Western Avenue (which is Caltrans right of way), and connecting back to the City of Lomita along 247th Street, 247th Place, 248th Street and Lomita Blvd. This project consists of constructing approximately 3,300 linear feet of PVC water pipeline and appurtenances (fire hydrants, valves, services, and fittings). The existing pipeline located in private property will be abandoned.

Design of the project was awarded to Onward Engineering in November 2021. The permit from Caltrans was approved in September 2022. The encroachment permit and traffic control plans were approved by the City of Los Angeles in December 2022. Onward Engineering has performed potholing. At one location soil contamination was observed.

Onward Engineering’s team will perform another round of potholing to investigate alternate alignments and/or validate the contamination. If the pipe alignment will be diverted, revised final design of the project will be resubmitted to the City for review.

Emergency Generator
This project consists of the selection and design of an emergency generator that will be capable of servicing the Appian Way Pump Station as needed. The design of this project was awarded to AEPC Group in July 2022 and is scheduled to be completed in May 2023.

Construction of the project is scheduled for Summer 2023.

For the month of April 2023, City staff reviewed the 100% final design package for the project. Due to the long lead time for generators (~60 weeks), the consultant is looking into alternative generators to rent to ensure the City has a backup power source for the Metropolitan Water District shutdown scheduled to begin in November 2023. Staff anticipates requesting Council authorization for early procurement of generator. The final revised PS&E for the project are scheduled to be submitted in May.

New Groundwater Well Feasibility Study
The purpose of this study is to identify preliminary locations where construction of a new groundwater well is feasible. The installation of a new well would minimize the City’s longterm reliance on imported water and provide a contingency well in case of future adverse impacts to Lomita Well No. 5. The City currently has groundwater rights of 1,352-acre feet (ac-ft) in the West Coast Basin, and in its last year of normal operations, CY 2018, Well No. 5 only produced 561 ac-ft of groundwater.

This study was awarded to Stetson Engineering, Inc. in February 2023. Stetson Engineering is currently acquiring and reviewing data and a preliminary report is expected to be submitted in May. The study and final report is scheduled to be completed in July 2023.

*The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has established Statement No. 31 for setting investment valuation standards. We report the unrealized gain/(loss) monthly and book realized gain/(loss) at year end as a GASB 31 requirement.

GASB 31 is a reporting requirement that reports the "Fair Value" of investments held in our portfolio. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument (investment) could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties at current market prices. It is important to understand the relationship between prevailing interest rates and fixed coupon investments. As market interest rates fall, the "Fair Value" of held securities will rise (unrealized Gains). The opposite occurs as market interest rates rise (market prices of held investments will fall). It should be noted that investments held in the city pool are to be held until maturity so both gains and losses (unrealized) will not be taken.

Section 3. Environmental Review
The Recitals above are true and correct and are hereby adopted as findings as if fully set forth herein.

The City Council finds that adoption of this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) because the actions identified in the ordinance are limited to the permitting and minor alteration of existing public facilities, including existing sidewalks. The ordinance would result in a negligible expansion of existing commercial uses and a negligible expansion of the public’s use of City right-of-way, as the uses included in the ordinance would not vary from the current uses of commercial businesses or public access within the City’s right-of-way. Alternatively, the adoption of this ordinance is exempt from CEQA because May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 74

it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15061(b)(3).) THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA HEREBY ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:

Expenditures
The table below shows the budget-to-actual expenditures through March 31st for Fiscal Years 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 by department. General Fund expenditures appear to be tracking higher than the prior fiscal year at 63% of the budget through the end of the third quarter of the current fiscal year (75%). Overall, most departments are tracking as expected, apart from Human Resources.

For Human Resources, the expenditures are tracking slightly higher due to several factors such as increases in the workers’ compensation/liability premiums, and PERS Unfunded Liability (Tiers 1-3) being paid in a lump sum at the beginning of the fiscal year; this prepayment is made every fiscal year and saves the city approximately 4% on the expenditure. 2021-2022

SUBJECT: Lease Agreement with the Hillside Memorial Park for 25 Acre-Feet of Unused FY 2022-2023 Groundwater Pumping Rights

RECOMMENDATION
Approve a lease agreement with the Hillside Memorial Park for 25 acre-feet of unused FY 2022-2023 groundwater pumping rights at a price of $110.00 per acre-foot for a total of $2,750; and authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute the agreement.

BACKGROUND
As in previous years, staff sought entities to lease groundwater pumping rights from the City of Lomita. The City had previously executed an agreement with Hillside Memorial Park in June 2022, granting them 50 acre-feet of groundwater pumping rights.

The City’s annual adjudicated groundwater pumping rights are 1,352 acre-feet.

Additionally, the City currently has 1,102 acre-feet of unused water pumping rights that were carried over from FY 2021-22.

There has been 0.00 acre-feet of groundwater pumped to date this fiscal year. Although the Cypress Water Production Facility (CWPF) and Well #5 are currently off-line, construction of the upgraded treatment system is nearing completion. Pumping from Well #5 may begin in the next month for development and testing of the upgraded treatment system at the CWPF, with up to 7 acre-feet of water pumped. Therefore, an estimated 2,447 acre-feet of water rights for lease in FY 2023-2024.

As such, there are sufficient unused pumping rights available to lease the requested 25 acre-feet to the Hillside Memorial Park. The table below shows a summary of the City’s available and used water pumping rights.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
TO: City Council Item No. 7p
FROM: Ryan Smoot, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Carla Dillon, P.E., Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: May 16, 2023
SUBJECT: Memorandum of Agreement for the Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program and Watershed Management Program for the Dominguez Channel Watershed Management Area

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the City of Los Angeles, the City of Carson, the City of El Segundo, the City of Hawthorne, the City of Inglewood, the City of Lawndale, the City of Lomita, Los Angeles County Flood Control District, the County of Los Angeles, and the South Bay Cities Council of Governments regarding the administration and cost sharing for implementing the Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP) and Watershed Management Program (WMP) for the Dominguez Channel Watershed Management Area; authorize the Mayor to sign the MOA; and authorize Lomita’s estimated share of the funding, $269,802 over three years.

BACKGROUND
The Municipal Separate Storm Water System (MS4) National Pollutant Discharge and Elimination (NPDES) Permit was originally adopted by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board), on November 8, 2012. An updated order was issued on July 23, 2021. The MS4 Permit contains many requirements for a Watershed Management Program (WMP), Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP), and on-going reporting.

On June 16, 2014, the City Council authorized the submittal of a Letter of Intent to the Regional Board to join the Dominguez Channel Watershed Management Group, which was pursuing an EWMP for the Dominguez Channel Watershed. The Dominguez Channel WMP group includes the cities of Los Angeles, Hawthorne, El Segundo, Inglewood, Lomita, Lawndale, Carson, and the County of Los Angeles. The Enhanced WMP plan was approved by the Regional Board on April 21, 2016 and identifies potential May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 92
2 project locations and Best Management Practices (BMPs), and serves as a road map to improve water quality in the watershed.

Another component of the WMP plan is to implement the Coordinated Integrated Monitoring Program (CIMP) for the Dominguez Channel Watershed Management Area, including Machado Lake to which the City of Lomita discharges storm water. The CIMP is necessary as it provides compliance with all the specific monitoring requirements of the MS4 Permit, including:
• Assessing the chemical, physical, and biological impacts of discharges from the MS4 Permit on receiving waters,
• Assessing compliance with receiving water limitations and water quality-based effluent limitations established to implement Total Maximum Daily Load wet weather and dry weather waste load allocations,
• Characterizing pollutant loads in MS4 Permit discharges, • Identifying sources of pollutants in MS4 Permit discharges, and • Measuring and improving the effectiveness of pollutant controls implemented under the MS4 Permit.

Many of these activities require services of trained and skilled professionals who perform sampling on short notice during rain events. Pooling resources to collectively perform these services is critical for Lomita to comply with the regulations.

On April 5, 2016, the City approved the initial MOA outlining the roles and responsibilities of all the agencies in administering the CIMP and approving the City’s share of costs for program implementation for FY 2015-16 through FY 2017-18. On April 17, 2018, the City approved an MOA covering fiscal years 2018-19 through 2022-23.

The current proposed MOA outlines the costs for implementation of the WMP and CIMP for FY 2023-24 through FY 2025-26. As in the previous MOAs, the City of Los Angeles is designated as the lead agency and will administer the compliance monitoring required by the CIMP and other WMP related tasks. Additionally, the South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG) will continue to administer collection of each member agency’s share of the cost of program implementation.

1. Approve staff’s recommendation.

administratively, without an amendment to this MOA, provided that the overall amount does not exceed the total not-to-exceed amount of this MOA or a PARTY’S annual proportional cost, as set forth in Table 1 of Exhibit B, and if approved by a majority consensus, using the process defined in Section 9(c).

Should the CITY require a shift in funds between MONITORING SERVICES and WMP-RELATED TASKS in order to implement the MONITORING SERVICES and WMP-RELATED TASKS, it shall notify the SBCCOG before shifting these funds.

the additional project, and the cost will be recalculated amongst the remaining PARTIES.

Section 10. Indemnification. Each PARTY shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless each other PARTY, on a pro rata basis, including its special districts, their member agencies, elected and appointed officers, employees, agents, attorneys, and designated volunteers from and against any and all liability, including, but not limited to, demands, claims, actions, fees, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys and expert witness fees), arising from or connected with this MOA; provided, however, that no PARTY shall indemnify another PARTY for that PARTY’s own negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 11. Termination

A. Prevailing Wage. CONTRACTOR is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Section 1720, et seq., and 1770, et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 16000, et seq., ("Prevailing Wage Laws"), which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on "public works" and "maintenance" projects.

to interested parties upon request and shall post copies at the CONTRACTOR’S principal place of business and at the project site. It is the intent of the parties to effectuate the requirements of sections 1771, 1774, 1775, 1776, 1777.5, 1813, and 1815 of the Labor Code within this Agreement, and CONTRACTOR shall therefore comply with such Labor Code sections to the fullest extent required by law.

CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold the CITY, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws.

B. Registration/DIR Compliance. If the services are being performed on a public works project of over $25,000 when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work, or a public works project of over $15,000 when the project is for maintenance work, in addition to the foregoing, then pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”). CONTRACTOR shall maintain registration for the duration of the project and require the same of any subcontractors. This project may also be subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. It shall be CONTRACTOR’S sole responsibility to comply with all applicable registration and labor compliance requirements, including the submission of payroll records directly to the DIR. Any stop orders issued by the DIR against CONTRACTOR or any subcontractors that affect CONTRACTOR’S performance of services, including any delay, shall be CONTRACTOR’S sole responsibility. Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall be considered CONTRACTOR caused delay and shall not be compensable by CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold CITY, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the DIR against CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor.

C. Labor Certification. By its signature hereunder, CONTRACTOR certifies that it is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the California Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for Worker's Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that Code and agrees to comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the Services.

D. Employment of Apprentices. CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors shall comply with the requirements of Labor Code sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices. Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules, and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.

E. CONTRACTOR or subcontractors may not perform work on a public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Labor Code section 1777.1 or 1777.7. Any contract on a public works project entered into between the CONTRACTOR and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract. Any public money May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 134

that is paid or may have been paid to a debarred subcontractor by CONTRACTOR on the project shall be returned to CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers of a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to work on the Project.

F. CONTRACTOR agrees to bind every subcontractor to the terms of the Agreement as far as such terms are applicable to subcontractor’s portion of the work.

CONTRACTOR shall be as fully responsible to CITY for the acts and omissions of its subcontractor and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by its subcontractor, as CONTRACTOR is for acts and omissions of persons directly employed by CONTRACTOR. Nothing contained in these Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between any subcontractor and CITY.

14. TERMINATION.

A. Except as otherwise provided, CITY may terminate this Agreement at any time with or without cause. Notice of termination shall be in writing.

B. CONTRACTOR may terminate this Agreement. Notice will be in writing at least 30 days before the effective termination date.

C. In the event of such termination, CONTRACTOR shall cease services as of the date of termination, all finished or unfinished documents, data, drawings, maps, and other materials prepared by CONTRACTOR shall, at CITY’s option, become CITY’s property, and CONTRACTOR will receive just and equitable compensation for any work satisfactorily completed up to the effective date of notice of termination.

D. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its own terms services similar to those terminated.

15. INDEMNIFICATION.

A. CONTRACTOR shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with CONTRACTOR's performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT, regardless of CITY’S passive negligence, but excepting such loss or damage which is caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of CITY. Should CITY in its sole discretion find CONTRACTOR’S legal counsel unacceptable, then CONTRACTOR shall reimburse CITY its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation.

CONTRACTOR shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against CITY (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) covered by this indemnity obligation. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 135

of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.

B. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by CONTRACTOR as required by Section 19, and any approval of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

16. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONTRACTOR’s professional services.

CONTRACTOR’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

17. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that THE CONTRACTOR will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which it is performed. THE CONTRACTOR will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other employees while under contract with CITY. CONTRACTOR is not an agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance, bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONTRACTOR as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONTRACTOR will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

18. AUDIT OF RECORDS.

A. THE CONTRACTOR agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR agrees to provide CITY, or designee, with any relevant information requested and will permit CITY, or designee, access to its premises, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours for the purpose of interviewing employees and inspecting and copying such books, records, accounts, and other material that may be relevant to a matter under investigation for the purpose of determining compliance with this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following final payment under this Agreement.

B. CONTRACTOR will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Agreement.

19. CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONTRACTOR will promptly implement any corrective measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement. CONTRACTOR will be given a reasonable amount of time as determined by CITY to implement said corrective measures. Failure of CONTRACTOR to implement required corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 136

20. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.

A. CONTRACTOR, at CONTRACTOR’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance policies:

1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. CONTRACTOR shall require all subcontractors similarly to provide such compensation insurance for their respective employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by CITY at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against CITY, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by CONTRACTOR for CITY.

2. General Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.

3. Automobile Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

4. Professional Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from CONTRACTOR’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by CONTRACTOR or by its employees, subcontractors, or subcontractors. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONTRACTOR will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated.

Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONTRACTOR for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONTRACTOR, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 137

company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by CITY, and shall be endorsed as follows. CONTRACTOR also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.”

2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.

Any insurance maintained by CITY, including any self-insured retention CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.

3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.

4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.

6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days’ written notice has been received by CITY.

C. CONTRACTOR agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement.

CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.

However, approval or payment by CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-Contractors and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-Contractors and agents.

23. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONTRACTOR shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during the CITY’S review of CONTRACTOR’S report or plans.

All violations of such laws and regulations shall be grounds for CITY to terminate the Agreement for cause

13. PREVAILING WAGE.

A. Prevailing Wage. CONTRACTOR is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Section 1720, et seq., and 1770, et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 16000, et seq., ("Prevailing Wage Laws"), which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on "public works" and "maintenance" projects. If the services are being performed as part of an applicable "public works" or "maintenance" project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if the total compensation is $1,000 or more, CONTRACTOR agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws.

Upon request, CITY shall provide CONTRACTOR with a copy of the prevailing rates of per diem wages in effect at the commencement of this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute the services available to interested parties upon request, and shall post copies at the CONTRACTOR’S principal place of business and at the project site. It is the intent of the parties to effectuate the requirements of sections 1771, 1774, 1775, 1776, 1777.5, 1813, and 1815 of the Labor Code within this Agreement, and CONTRACTOR shall therefore comply with such Labor Code sections to the fullest extent required by law.

CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold the CITY, its officials, officers, May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 177
employees, agents, and volunteers free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws.

B. Registration/DIR Compliance. If the services are being performed on a public works project of over $25,000 when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work, or a public works project of over $15,000 when the project is for maintenance work, in addition to the foregoing, then pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”). CONTRACTOR shall maintain registration for the duration of the project and require the same of any subcontractors. This project may also be subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. It shall be CONTRACTOR’S sole responsibility to comply with all applicable registration and labor compliance requirements, including the submission of payroll records directly to the DIR. Any stop orders issued by the DIR against CONTRACTOR or any subcontractors that affect CONTRACTOR’S performance of services, including any delay, shall be CONTRACTOR’S sole responsibility. Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall be considered CONTRACTOR caused delay and shall not be compensable by CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold CITY, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the DIR against CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor.

C. Labor Certification. By its signature hereunder, CONTRACTOR certifies that it is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the California Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for Worker's Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that Code, and agrees to comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the Services.

D. Employment of Apprentices. CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors shall comply with the requirements of Labor Code sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices. Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules, and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.

E. CONTRACTOR or subcontractors may not perform work on a public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Labor Code section 1777.1 or 1777.7. Any contract on a public works project entered into between CONTRACTOR and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract. Any public money that is paid or may have been paid to a debarred subcontractor by CONTRACTOR on the project shall be returned to CITY. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers of a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to work on the Project.

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 178
F. CONTRACTOR agrees to bind every subcontractor to the terms of the Agreement as far as such terms are applicable to subcontractor’s portion of the work.

CONTRACTOR shall be as fully responsible to CITY for the acts and omissions of its subcontractor and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by its subcontractor, as CONTRACTOR is for acts and omissions of persons directly employed by CONTRACTOR. Nothing contained in these Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between any subcontractor and CITY.

14. TERMINATION.

A. Except as otherwise provided, CITY may terminate this Agreement at any time with or without cause. Notice of termination shall be in writing.

B. CONTRACTOR may terminate this Agreement. Notice will be in writing at least 30 days before the effective termination date.

C. In the event of such termination, CONTRACTOR shall cease services as of the date of termination, all finished or unfinished documents, data, drawings, maps, and other materials prepared by CONTRACTOR shall, at CITY’s option, become CITY’s property, and CONTRACTOR will receive just and equitable compensation for any work satisfactorily completed up to the effective date of notice of termination.

D. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its own terms services similar to those terminated.

15. INDEMNIFICATION.

A. CONTRACTOR shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with CONTRACTOR's performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT, regardless of CITY’S passive negligence, but excepting such loss or damage which is caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of CITY. Should CITY in its sole discretion find CONTRACTOR’S legal counsel unacceptable, then CONTRACTOR shall reimburse CITY its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation.

CONTRACTOR shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against CITY (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) covered by this indemnity obligation. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.

B. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by CONTRACTOR as required by Section 19, and any approval of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 179
qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

16. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONTRACTOR’s professional services.

CONTRACTOR’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

17. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that CONTRACTOR will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which is it performed. CONTRACTOR will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONTRACTOR is not an agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance, bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONTRACTOR as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONTRACTOR will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

18. AUDIT OF RECORDS.

A. CONTRACTOR agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR agrees to provide CITY, or designee, with any relevant information requested and will permit CITY, or designee, access to its premises, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours for the purpose of interviewing employees and inspecting and copying such books, records, accounts, and other material that may be relevant to a matter under investigation for the purpose of determining compliance with this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following final payment under this Agreement.

B. CONTRACTOR will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Agreement.

19. CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONTRACTOR will promptly implement any corrective measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement. CONTRACTOR will be given a reasonable amount of time as determined by CITY to implement said corrective measures. Failure of CONTRACTOR to implement required corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.

20. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.

A. CONTRACTOR, at CONTRACTOR’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance policies:

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 180

1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. CONTRACTOR shall require all subcontractors similarly to provide such compensation insurance for their respective employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by CITY at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against CITY, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by CONTRACTOR for CITY.

2. General Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.

3. Automobile Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

4. Professional Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from CONTRACTOR’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by CONTRACTOR or by its employees, subcontractors, or subcontractors. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONTRACTOR will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated.

Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONTRACTOR for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONTRACTOR, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by CITY, and shall be endorsed as follows. CONTRACTOR also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 181

1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.”

2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.

Any insurance maintained by CITY, including any self-insured retention CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.

3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.

4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.

6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days’ written notice has been received by CITY.

C. CONTRACTOR agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement.

CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.

D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by CITY. At CITY’s option, CONTRACTOR shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

E. CONTRACTOR shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.

Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.

F. Failure on the part of CONTRACTOR to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13 above.

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 182
G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the CONTRACTOR (as the named insured) should CONTRACTOR fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. CONTRACTOR understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONTRACTOR as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CONTRACTOR’S behalf upon CONTRACTOR’S failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action against Contractor for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.

21. USE OF OTHER CONTRACTORS. CONTRACTOR must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any Contractors while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed Contractor and the terms of compensation.

22. FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONTRACTOR of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONTRACTOR for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONTRACTOR’S work or services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of CITY’S check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-Contractors and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-Contractors and agents.

23. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONTRACTOR shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during CITY’S review of CONTRACTOR’S report or plans. Should the CONTRACTOR fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by CITY, and the cost thereof shall be charged to CONTRACTOR. In addition to all other available remedies, CITY may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by CITY or may withhold payment otherwise owed CONTRACTOR under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.

24. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONTRACTOR by CITY for services preformed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal budget and within an available, unexhausted fund. In the event that CITY does not appropriate sufficient funds for payment of CONTRACTOR’S services May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 183
beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement shall cover payment for CONTRACTOR’S only to the conclusion of the last fiscal year in which CITY appropriates sufficient funds and shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of such fiscal year.

25. NOTICES. All communications to either party by the other party will be deemed made when received by such party at its respective name and address as follows:

BOA Architecture Relevant Experience
LA COUNTY ISD, Saybrook Recreation Ctr. Roof Replacement In 2018 BOA Architecture was selected to provide Architectural On-Call Services on behalf of the County of Los Angele –Internal Services Department (ISD) for their Deferred Maintenance Program for their existing buildings.

To date, we have completed the design of 10 renovation/modernization projects in the cost range of $50,000 to $1,500,000 in construction cost. One of the more challenging projects was the roof replacement project at Saybrook Recreation Center. Since the 1980’s, very little maintenance or improvement was done to this little 3000 sf community building located in East LA. Since then, creeping fig vines had engulfed most of the building and onto the roof, damaging the walls and parapet flashing. The HVAC units had been replaced recently but the roof leaks and rainwater leaked through the HVAC ducts and roof penetrations. Additionally, the building did not have any roof insulation, resulting in poor energy performance.

Design Solution: With a very limited construction budget of $300,000, and directions to preserve the existing rooftop HVAC equipment and ducts, BOA added tapered R-30 rooftop insulation, replaced the built-up roofing & roof flashing, removed and reinstalled existing HVAC equipment and existing ducts, provided positive rainwater drainage to new roof drains and overflow scuppers. We created new taller equipment platforms and duct penetration platforms to resolve leaks from the HVAC system. As “best practice” procedures, the ducts and roof mounted pipes and conduits were supported on foam rubber blocks. Construction was completed in April 2021.

BEFORE: exterior walls with invasive vines.

BEFORE: old roof, exist. HVAC equipment.

BEFORE: non-compliant condensate,
damage caused by vines
AFTER: condensate line rerouted, invasive
vines removed, new coping, new scuppers
AFTER: new rigid insulation & roof, reinstall exist. HVAC equipment onto new equipment platforms.

AFTER: removed invasive vines, new plaster finish-coat, painted walls.

Tidelands Beach Restrooms
Client: City of Long Beach, Public Works Dept. Parks, Recreation & Marine Dept. Reuben Tolentino 714-412-5672 Team: Edward Lok Ng Construction Cost: $5,000,000 Started: April 2014 Construction Completed: May 2016 Project Description: Located on the beaches off Long Beach’s Marine Stadium, Alamitos Bay, Rainbow Harbor, Alamitos Beach, and Junipero Beach, BOA designed 8 new beach restroom facilities and extensively renovated 2 more. Their locations designation are; Mothers Beach South, Bayshore North, Bayshore South, 62nd Place, Granada Av., Junipero Av., Cherry Av., Coronado Av., 8th Place, and Queensway adjacent the Aquarium. Each location was architecturally designed to be compatible with the nearby community. Functions of the new building included
individual beach changing rooms with toilet, a bank of
common lavatories are stationed under a covered
shade immediately out the changing rooms. Nearby
outdoor beach showers are conveniently located. All
areas of the facility are fully accessible and ADA
compliant. Ease of maintenance and Crime Prevention
Through Environmental Design were important
considerations in the design and orientation of the new buildings. As a result heavy-duty stainless steel
plumbing fixtures, fiberglass doors & frames, and CMU
interior walls were chosen. Liquefaction and a high
water table were geotechnical issues that needed
special attention. Thus, over-excavation & mat
concrete slab were used to mitigate differential
settlement and soil instability. As public artwork, each beach location was enhanced with ocean themed tile
wall mosaic and mosaic tiled sidewalks. This was
directed by the City and designed by BOA.

Street into entry courtyard Multi-purpose Rm. for dining/dancing/card playing Courtyard entry Project: Bartlett Senior Center, Torrance, CA Client: City of Torrance, 3031 Torrance Blvd., Torrance, CA 90509 Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng; project manager/project designer Project Description: This new two-story, 13,000 square foot facility provides both recreational and social needs of senior citizens in Old Downtown Torrance. It was designed specifically for seniors with limited mobility, and exceeds ADA code requirements. Accessibility features included; an elevator, automatic opening doors, liberal use of handrails/grab bars, and an open plan to facilitate accessibility. An entry courtyard shaded by trees welcomes visitors and seniors. A full commercial kitchen serves over 300 hot meals per day. To bring the project within a tight budget, the 5000 sf multi-purpose room was constructed over 6 existing championship quality shuffleboard courts. Great effort was made to preserve the shuffleboard courts in both the design and construction phases. CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) features include, CCTV, access controls, and natural courtyard surveillance. The building exterior was designed to be architecturally compatible with the adjacent "Art Deco" style museum. A Senior Advisory Committee was organized to formulate security and accessibility goals, and provide user input in the design process. The courtyard allowed seniors to participate in recreational activities or “people watching” in a secured lush/shaded outdoor space.

LA COUNTY ISD, Eddie Heredia, Eastside Boxing Club
Client: County of Los Angeles ISD, contact; Keith Andersen 310-720-2921 or Shahen Soghomonian 818-751-9377Construction Cost: $1,300,000 for 5000 sf renovation. Completed: 2022 Located in East LA, this renovation project totally transformed a historic, but obsolete, 1960’s mid-century fire station into a recreational community boxing gym for local youths. BOA worked with the County historian to ensure that the exterior defining architectural features of the building were not altered. The non-original apparatus garage doors at the street frontage and alley, were replaced with new sectional glass garage doors for openness and natural lighting. The new garage doors maintained the historic character of the original fire station. Even though, new HVAC was installed, the large operable glass garage doors allowed for natural open-air boxing-training workouts, which was much desired option by the boxers and trainers. The old and ugly rooftop HVAC equipment were removed, and roofing was replaced with new shingles. Exterior walls-windows were repaired, patch & painted. The interior was totally gutted to install new electrical/data, new LED lighting, new drywall, and removed some walls to create larger workout-training areas, and a weight room.

The former sloped floor apparatus garage, was demolished, re-poured with new concrete, for a boxing ring and enough space around the ring for portable chairs and bleacher for viewing. Other project scope comprised of replacement & modernizing the HVAC, plumbing & electrical systems, fire alarm, interior/exterior lighting, new renovated ADA compliant restrooms with lockers, add R-30 roof insulation, replace the roof & raingutters, repair rotted wood beams and fascia, new rubber sports flooring throughout, paint interior/exterior, removed former kitchen walls & built-ins to create larger rooms. New exterior sitework included; ADA parking stall, large trash enclosure, new entry ramp/stairs for accessibility, new gates/fence off alley, new ADA parking stall.

BOA also coordinated with the Councilman’s Office, User Groups, City Cultural affairs, and Park Preservation to resolve design conflicts. This U-shape building with a courtyard focus, offered natural lighting within a secured environment, and provided a pleasant setting for seniors to meet and outdoor recreation. It was designed specifically for seniors with limited mobility and varying disabilities. This facility exceeds ADA accessibility code requirements, featuring, access lift to the stage, automatic opening doors, liberal use of handrails/grab bars in the hallways, and an open plan to facilitate visual accessibility. Crime prevention features included, access controls, selective use of windows at ground level, and natural surveillance at courtyard and front entry.

BEFORE New Computer Room
Hawaiian Gardens Teen Center
Construction Cost: $500,000 Owner: City of Hawaiian Garden Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng, Leo Arteaga Completed: 2019 Project Description: BOA was commissioned to completely renovate and convert an existing 3000 sf. old pre-manufactured building that was used as a childcare facility to a new facility dedicated to teenagers of Hawaiian Gardens. It was designed to meet their recreational and social needs, and also provide after-school and weekend “intervention” programs. It was designed specifically for teens, to give them “their own place”. A place that is safe, with programs catering specifically to teens, and a place to receive guidance, supervision and help with their homework. The entire existing interior was gutted while the exterior shell was left in-tack. The interior improvements included; a large multi-purpose game room for computer gaming, table games, and social activities, a large computer room for homework and training, another room for homework and internet access, teen counseling is available in the staff office, arts and crafts, kitchen for cooking crafts and snacks are accommodated in the large multi-purpose room.

Large expanses of interior glass windows allow
separation and easy visual access for one staff
member to visually survey all the rooms from the
staff office. Other interior improvements include;
new LED lighting throughout, ADA restrooms,
warming kitchen. Outdoor improvements include;
new landscape-hardscape, large outdoor multipurpose gathering area with basketball court and volleyball court stripping, and shaded picnic-BBQ
area. ADA compliance improvements include;
retrofit ADA restrooms, new ramp at front and rear
entrances, accessible parking stall, and new doors.

The exterior was painted in a playful multi-color
scheme to accentuate the modules of the
premanufactured building and give the appearance
of a place that is fun and full of life. Multi-color
interior accent walls recall the exterior color scheme.

Construction Cost: $250,000 Owner: City of Pomona, CA Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng, Miguel Andrade Project Description: In a Design-Build team with New Creation Builders, general contractor, BOA was commissioned to convert an existing 1500 sf. Old 1930’s house to a new facility dedicated to teenagers of Pomona. It was designed to meet their recreational and social needs, and also provide after-school “intervention” programs. It was designed specifically for teens, to give them “their own place”. A place that is safe, with programs catering specifically to teens, and a place to receive guidance, supervision and help with their homework. The entire existing house interior was gutted while the exterior shell was left in-tack. The interior facilities improvements included; a large multi-purpose game room, a quiet room for homework, another room for computer gaming and internet access, teen counseling is available in the staff office, arts and crafts, kitchen for cooking crafts and snacks are accommodated in the large multi-purpose room. Other interior improvements include; new LED lighting throughout, ADA restrooms.

Outdoor improvements include; new landscape-hardscape, outdoor gathering area, and basketball court in the parking lot. ADA compliance improvements include; retrofit restrooms, new ramp at rear entrance, accessible parking stall, reception sign-in counter, handrails at stairs, and new doors. Sustainability features include drought-tolerant plants/trees, decomposed granite walkways and catch basin areas to allow rainwater infiltration, LED lighting, and a new white color reflective roof.

ST FLOOR ENTRY & 2ND FLOOR ADDITION

AERIAL OF NEW AND RENOVATED FACILITIES
Project: Youth Activity-Teen Center,
Construction Cost: $1,400,000
Owner: City of Sierra Madre, CA
Project Description: A new “state of the art”
facility dedicated to teenagers of Sierra Madre,
it will meet their recreational and social needs,
and also provide after-school “intervention”
programs. It was designed specifically for
teens, to give them “their own place, their
“clubhouse” on the second floor over an
existing community center. In outreach
meetings with the teens,, the teens decided
that it should be a “tree house” just for
teenagers. This second floor addition was
nestled among oak trees, incorporated
articulated knee braces (representing tree
branches) and fiber cement siding & generous
roof eave overhangs into a contemporary
expression of craftsman motif to achieve the
“tree house” appearance. The architecture was also sensitive to the surrounding residential craftsman style and the architecture of the existing building on the first floor, by matching the existing horizontal red brick and low pitched wood gable roof. This facility included a large multi-purpose game room, other rooms for homework, computer labs, teen counseling, staff office, skateboard storage, arts and crafts, kitchen for cooking crafts and snacks, and outdoor gardening and gathering areas. Playful colors and shapes dominate the interior. Large corner windows provided panoramic views of the City park grounds. The new second floor addition was built independent of the roof structure below to allow current City programs to remain operational during construction, and to save money on needless demolition and rework of the existing first floor. The first floor was also renovated for ADA compliance that included retrofit restrooms, new ramps, reception counter, and new doors.

Street into entry courtyard Multi-purpose Rm. for dining/dancing/card playing Courtyard entry Project: Bartlett Senior Center, Torrance, CA Client: City of Torrance, 3031 Torrance Blvd., Torrance, CA 90509 Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng; project manager/project designer Project Description: This new two-story, 13,000 square foot facility provides both recreational and social needs of senior citizens in Old Downtown Torrance. It was designed specifically for seniors with limited mobility, and exceeds ADA code requirements. Accessibility features included; an elevator, automatic opening doors, liberal use of handrails/grab bars, and an open plan to facilitate accessibility. An entry courtyard shaded by trees welcomes visitors and seniors. A full commercial kitchen serves over 300 hot meals per day. To bring the project within a tight budget, the 5000 sf multi-purpose room was constructed over 6 existing championship quality shuffleboard courts. Great effort was made to preserve the shuffleboard courts in both the design and construction phases. CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) features include, CCTV, access controls, and natural courtyard surveillance. The building exterior was designed to be architecturally compatible with the adjacent "Art Deco" style museum. A Senior Advisory Committee was organized to formulate security and accessibility goals, and provide user input in the design process. The courtyard allowed seniors to participate in recreational activities or “people watching” in a secured lush/shaded outdoor space.

City of Commerce City Hall Exterior Frontage Renovation BEFORE – Entry to Library
AFTER - Proposed new Library Entry and private courtyard BEFORE – City Council Entry
AFTER - Proposed new City Council Entry Structure and Plaza Client: City of Commerce contact: Gina Nila, Public Works Sr. Project Manager 323-722-4805 Construction complete: Dec. 2023 Construction Cost: $1,300,000 Architect Team: Edward Lok Ng, L Arteaga Project Description: BOA Architecture provided architectural & engineering design for the renovation and exterior frontage improvements to the Civic Center’s entry plazas for the City Council and the Main Library public. This is a great example of how an architectural façade improvement can and will, dramatically change and revitalize the exterior appearance, and at the same time implement ADA Compliance for the main entries. It will refresh an old 1960’s midcentury building, and transform it into a modern-contemporary civic center. At the Library Entry Plaza, BOA demolished a meandering entry ramp and stair to create a single monumental entry ramp with decorative and contemporary signage wall that doubles as a separation for the new Library meditative courtyard. At the City Council Entry Plaza, BOA demolished a sloping lawn area that was problematic for use by the adjacent Senior Center, which shares this plaza, to create a distinctively modern and dramatic entry shade structure. This bold, upward soaring roof structure helps to “invite” people into the City Council Chambers, and as a focal point for large outdoor city sponsored celebrations and presentations. On each side of the entry structure are water features that add to the ambiance of the entry approach. Contrasting color permeable pavers
arranged in bold stripes complement the dramatic entry
structure. New multi-color glass façade walls replaced existing CMU block screen walls. Other work included; new
trees/landscaping, ADA ramps/stairs, and tenant improvements to 1500 sf of the Main Library.

Project Management approach
BOA’s project management approach is based upon our extensive past experience in preparing comprehensive architectural construction documents for architectural Public Works projects using a Multi-Discipline Design Team.

Your project will need not only architectural expertise, but also other design disciplines, such as ADA Compliance (inhouse expertise), electrical, Mechanical Engineering design, and structural engineering. BOA will provide leadership and direction to the Design Team. BOA’s management approach incorporates 6 components used successfully on facilities design projects:
• Program Development
• Feasibility Studies/Project Definitio
• Conceptual Design
• Project Design-Construction Documents
• Specification
• Design Reviews
• ADA Compliance Code Research
• Cost Estimating
• Value Engineering
• Constructability Reviews
• Building Evaluations
• Troubleshooting
• Construction Support Services
• CADD and BIM/3D Modeling
This section contains a description of our project management approach, highlighting how BOA will manange and implement our production systems to complete your project as contained in the Scope of Work of the RFP. We have visited the site where work will be done and we totally understand what needs to be done. BOA has over 60 years of continuous architectural experience in managing and designing similar public facilities from project conception to project close-out. Our in-house staff also has an abundance of architectural Public Works facilities experience and successful past performance for the following areas of an architectural project:

1. Project Management

2. Project Documentation

3. Consultant Coordination

4. Construction Administration

5. Quality Control

6. Work Plan

1. PROJECT MANAGEMENT
BOA, throughout an extensive history of municipal senior center design, teen center, police dept., civic center design, parks and recreation facilities design, Community Centers, and facilities addition/renovation continues to develop and refine its management philosophy to better address its future projects. BOA will implement our most advanced management techniques in the undertaking of this project. The goal of our management philosophy is to accomplish a well-designed project that exceeds client expectations, meets its budget, is deliverable on time, and meets all functional needs and City, State and County building code requirements. Our techniques of management encompass the ideals by which these goals are achieved. Our project management approach is characterized by the following considerations:

Design/Management Integration: Successful projects require the fusion of the design disciplines with those of management. They must have common goals and an integrated process. This is best achieved by appointing leaders with mutual respect and extensive facilities modernization and public works design experience on similar projects.

BOA will have Edward Lok Ng, Principal, as the Project Manager on a full-time basis. An examination of Mr. Ng’s qualifications reveals that he has personally designed and successfully managed over 800 Municipal facilities modernization projects and he has been the project Designer in all BOA’s recent projects involving Community Centers. It is the Project Manager’s task to help establish the appropriate design vision and see it through its successful realization.

Client Participation: Client participation will be critical. Design goals cannot be realized without the thorough understanding of the client’s needs and sensitivity to historic presentation. The early involvement of the client and the users will be continued throughout the design process. The Project Manager will ensure that the efforts of the team are always addressed to the specific client user group. The understanding and involvement of the client will extend to City appointed representatives, i.e., maintenance managers, engineering staff, and City inspectors and engineers in a mutually productive partnership.

May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 215
BOA is intimately familiar with both modernization, sesmic retrofit and facilities ADA Compliance projects. Teamwork and close coordination among staff, consultants, and the Clients are essential to a successful project. Timely participation and response of the Client is absolutely critical if the project is to be successful and “on time”. BOA will be responsible for ensuring that a high degree of coordination occurs and that project milestones are met.

BOA’s biggest assets are its attention to construction details, thoroughness in drawing documentation and ease of constructability. A major priority of BOA will be to establish continuing dialogue with your staff, Building/Safety plan check, and representatives of interested parties so that our products reflect community goal, City policy, and conformance with your Design/Manual Standards.

Continuity: The understanding of the project needs and the resultant design goals must be maintained throughout the project’s duration. In construction phases, it is as necessary as in the design phases, to make certain that the original intent, of the client and designer are realized in the final built product. This will be very important in the construction phasing of your project. The key members of the team, under the leadership of the Project Manager will be responsible for the direction of the project throughout all phases to ensure continuity of design intent.

2. PROJECT DOCUMENTATION
Project Documentation is a result of systems set up in BOA’s Project Management Manual. This guide on how to run a project effectively and efficient , developed more than 60 years of architectural practice, is firm, but flexible; responsive to the specific dynamics of specific projects, but unyielding in its insistence on full documentation, responsiveness, and performance. Keys elements include:

Project Checklist: This is initiated at the beginning of each project and services as a guide of all elements of the project to be completed, and as a central index for all project related material. It is continually updated and reviewed during regular project audits.

Product File and Technical Project Checklist: Initiated at the commencement of design, this checklist serves to record all considerations and decisions regarding building materials and methods to be used in construction. It also becomes a comprehensive guide for preparation of the Construction Documents.

3. CONSULTANT COORDINATION
The engineering consultants play a very critical and active role in all phases of the work. The Project Manager leads in coordinating the efforts of consultants with the help of • Frequent coordination meetings.
• Consultant orientation packets which are distributed at project commencement and periodically through the project.
• Clearly defined scopes of work which define separation of responsibilities and eliminate grey area • Milestone Outline, prepared specifically for each project which clearly defines consultant performance expectations for each phase.
• Project Schedule coordinated with a milestone outline, reviewed and signed off by all consultants • Drawing Status Log which is updated every two weeks which track’s consultant’s performance. • CADD (AutoCAD 2020 and Revit 2020) procedures involving background and overlay methodologies that insure up-to-date and coordinated design effort.

4. CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
BOA understands the importance of efficien construction administration. To ensure that the design and technical intent are conveyed to the contractor and that the project knowledge is available throughout this phase, the construction administration is led by the project manager. The Project Manager, Edward Lok Ng will personally review shop drawings as well as attend all job site meetings to resolve technical design and historic preservation issues. A Senior Project Manager from each of our engineering consultants will be assigned to assist the Project Manager and ensure that the highest standard, procedures and methods of construction are employed. BOA has a Construction Administration Manuel to assist the Project Manager with an established system to track shop drawings, RFI, change orders, and documentation of construction site meetings, so that keys decisions are tracked and managed for the benefit of the Client
May 16, 2023, Reg. CC. Mtg., Page # 216

5. Quality Control
Quality assurance begins with the commitment, experience and abilities of the team members. All of the firm s personnel contain many design specialists versed in the complexities of the individual phases of the design process.

The quality assurance program for the project will draw on these skills to assist the team in obtaining its goals for a design of vision that delivers the maximum functional and accessibility solution to the user that addresses the needs of the client and does so with the most efficien construction process. BOA has an established Quality Control program that is based on three mechanisms:

The Quality Control Manual: The Quality Control Manual documents, activities, tasks, and deliverables are to be achieved in each phase of work. Checklists are included and, at the completion of each phase, are signed off by the Project Manager. The manual also includes exemplary forecasts for meetings, programs, schedules and agendas.

We have a quality control checklist that is customized especially for Public Works facilities renovation projects.

Checklist items range from electrical and plumbing fixture standards, to City/County department clearances, to record drawing procedures, to amount to copies needed for review submittals, and much more.

Quality Control Review: Quality Control Reviews occur prior to review Submittals and at key points in the project schedule. During these reviews, the entire sets of documents are checked by an experienced, architectural professional who has had major experience in the design of similar projects to ensure a “questioning character” in this process. Major emphasis is placed on Constructability and on satisfying the operational requirements of the user and thoroughness of documentation. As a part of this project, BOA will commit Mr. Leo Arteaga, Quality Review Offic . Mr. Arteaga CASp. will be ideal for this role because of his extensive municipal and Public Works experience and familiarity with working on municipal Community Center facilities, historic preservation, and ADA Compliance.

Mr. Arteaga will review all deliverables at, 50%, and 95% completion. This involvement is formalized and part of the quality control manual procedures. We are committed to providing quality design services and trust that our past work with numerous other local cities is indicative of that commitment.

Project Standards: From our experience of over 2000 architectural Public Works projects, BOA has developed its own Project Standard that can be customized to the Client that enhances quality control of bid documents and the construction process. Project Standards include:

A. Construction document detail drawings: With the input of past governmental clients, BOA has developed, refined, and field tested over 300 Standard construction details that are geared for public works renovation/addition projects.

We have Standard, field tested, construction document details for just about every field condition possible; accessible lavatory counters, transitions of existing material to new material, restrooms upgrade, signage, railings, entry doors, stairs, ramps, site work, parking lot, window/door replacement, roof repair, building expansion joints, new flooring, new addition to existing, HVAC replacement etc.

B. BOA has developed a standard facilities modernization equipment list e.g., types of flooring, new handrails, access lifts, lighting fixtures, plumbing fixtures, drinking fountains, furniture, restroom accessories, ramp equipment, roof materials, etc., complete with manufacturer Model # and their acceptable approved equal. The Standard equipment list have been field tested and proven to be of high quality, durability, parts availability, and acceptable to the many past municipal clients.

C. BOA has developed a standard keynoting system with over 150 items that addresses virtually every facility field condition and ADA Compliance conditions and many specialize retrofit/repair conditions. These standard keynotes have been field tested and refined, and have proven to be clear and concise to construction contractor

6. WORK PLAN
At the beginning of every project, we create a written work plan customized for this project showing every phase of design from conception to project close-out. This provides our staff and you, the client, a “road map” of what we do at each phase of your project. A sample of, our Work Plan is available upon request.

PREPARED BY: Carla Dillon, P.E., Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: May 16, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion and Consideration to End the Current Drought Response Level 2 and Adopt a Resolution Declaring a Drought Response Level 1 Shortage Alert

RECOMMENDATION
Declare an end to the current Drought Response Level 2, adopt resolution 2023-11 declaring a Drought Response Level 1 Shortage Alert and find the action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

BACKGROUND
On May 18, 2021, the City of Lomita adopted a new Water Shortage Contingency Plan with six standard stages, similar to those which have also been adopted by many other water agencies throughout California. On November 9, 2021, Metropolitan Water District (MWD) declared a regional drought emergency. In December 2021, the City of Lomita adopted Drought Response Level 1 Shortage Alert.

On April 26, 2022, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD), which serves 19 million Southern Californians through 26 member agencies, declared a water shortage emergency for State Water Project (SWP) dependent parts of Los Angeles, Ventura and San Bernardino counties. West Basin, which receives MWD water imported from both the Colorado River and the SWP in typical years is not considered SWP dependent. In 2021, West Basin boosted regional water reliability by adjusting its operations to deliver only imported water from Colorado River due to the limitations on water from Northern California. Therefore, West Basin and its communities were not subject to MWD’s most recent emergency restrictions.

2 On May 24, 2022, the SWRCB adopted emergency water conservation regulations in response to the drought and Governor Newsom’s calls for reduced water usage statewide. The SWRCB banned the irrigation of non-functional, ornamental turf with drinking water in commercial, industrial and institutional sectors. Additionally, the state board actions required urban water retailers, including those in West Basin’s service area to implement all the water use reduction actions associated with a shortage level two (10- 20% shortage), at a minimum, of the supplier’s water shortage contingency plan.

The City Council’s Water Subcommittee met in May 2022 regarding the current drought conditions and recommended that the City escalate to Water Shortage Level 2 based on conditions and align with State and regional requirements. In June 2022, the City transitioned to Drought Response Level 2 Shortage Alert.

On March 3, 2023, a snow survey conducted by the Department of Water Resources and partner agencies found that most regions of the Sierra Nevada are above average for snow water content, and some regions are nearing record amounts of snow. The improved conditions have helped rehabilitate the State’s reservoirs and surface water supply. On March 24, 2023, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-5-23, which:
• Ends the voluntary 15% water conservation target, while continuing to encourage that Californians make conservation a way of life
• Ends the requirement that local water agencies implement level 2 of their drought contingency plans
• Maintains the ban on wasteful water uses, such as watering ornamental grass on commercial properties
• Preserves all emergency orders focuses on groundwater supply, where the effects of multiyear drought continue to be devastating
• Maintains orders focuses on specific watersheds that have not benefited as much from recent rains, including the Klamath River and Colorado River basins, which both remain in drought
• Retains a state of emergency for all 58 counties to allow for drought response and recovery efforts to continue
Executive Order N-5-23 allows local agencies to determine whether they may continue or drop the previously held restrictions which would grant the City the authority to transition from the Drought Response Level 2 Shortage Alert to Drought Response Level 1 Shortage Alert.

While the State’s surface water and reservoirs have seen record precipitation this year, the Colorado River, a source of water for Southern California, continues to have shortages, and historic allocation levels may be subject to change.

Under the City’s approved Water Shortage Contingency Plan, the following prohibitions and restrictions will take effect under Stage 1 (up to 10%) Water Shortage:
• No Irrigation between 10 am to 8 pm

Public notice in accordance with Section 12-4.01.11 requires three things:
(1) Within five (5) days following the declaration of the response level, the City shall publish a copy of the resolution in a newspaper used for publication of official notices, and in any other places designated by the city council or city manager. (2) The mandatory conservation measures applicable to drought response level conditions shall take effect on the tenth day after the date the response level is declared. All other conditions shall take effect immediately upon adoption of the resolution.
(3) If the city establishes a water allocation, it shall provide notice of the allocation by including it in the regular billing statement to the address to which the billing statement for fees for ongoing water service is customarily sent. Water allocation shall be effective on the fifth day following the date of mailing or at such later date as specified in the notice.
