Community and Economic Development Director Rindge gave a brief staff report per the agenda materials. She stated that Lomita was chosen as one of the cities to participate in the Sunstone Economic Development Challenge in partnership with the USC City/County Management Fellowship through a grant from Sunstone Management, a private capital firm in Southern California. Participation in this public-private educational partnership incurs no direct cost to the City.

The program, now in its second year, serves as a charitable program designed to help local governments develop and implement strategies to attract and support early-stage startup businesses, raise private capital, and create jobs in their communities.

George Kivett, Lomita resident, spoke in favor of the item.

The recommended action on this item was to receive and file. It was Council consensus to approve the recommended action.
b. DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION TO AUTHORIZE THE RELEASE OF A BID PACKAGE FOR THE 247TH STREET AREA WATER MAIN REPLACEMENT

PROJECT
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize staff to release the bid package for the 247th Street Area Water Main Replacement Project; and find the project categorically exempt from CEQA.

Director Dillon presented a brief report. She stated that the water maines in this area were built around 1928, which could lead to pipe breakage or leakage. The pipe design had relatively small 4” to 6” pipes and the water mains currently go under private properties.

The project is recommended in both the Water Master Plan and approved by Council in the CIP Master Plan. The project will be funded with CalOES funding in the amount of approximately $1.125M. 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 6-inch PVC water pipeline and appurtenances (fire hydrants, valves, services, and fittings). The existing pipeline located in private property will be abandoned. If approved, the project will go to bid between October and December 2023 with an anticipated award date of February 2024 and construction start date of March 2024. Construction duration is estimated at 80 working days.

Council Member Gazley made a motion, seconded by Council Member Segawa, to approve the recommended action.

MOTION CARRIED by the following vote:

AYES: Council Members: Gazeley, Segawa, and Mayor Pro Tem Uphoff NOES: None

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
TO: City Council Item No. 7d
FROM: Ryan Smoot, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Carla Dillon, P.E., Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: October 3, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Transfer Agreement with the California Department of Transportation

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 2023-19, approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract for the Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant for Lomita’s Citywide School Loading Zone Study for Vision Zero Neighborhood Planning Initiatives & Infrastructure with the California Department of Transportation in a form approved by the City Attorney.

BACKGROUND
Schools within the City of Lomita generate traffic during drop-off and pick-up times. This leads to increased traffic congestion, parking/vehicle code violations, as well as pedestrian and bicycle safety concerns. The City has submitted a grant application for a Citywide School Loading Zone Study (Study) for Vision Zero Neighborhood Planning Initiatives & Infrastructure to the California Department of Transportation. The City has been preliminarily awarded the grant. This Study is intended to be a roadmap for Lomita, partnering entities, and the broader community to improve safety for students and caregivers walking and bicycling to school. The effort will include partnerships and collaboration across agencies and school communities to create safe and equitable environments for local youth who are traveling to and from school, while also expanding new pathways to help promote physical activity among Lomita’s K-8 populations.

The four schools include:
1) Alexander Fleming Magnet Middle School
2) Lomita STEAM Magnet School
3) St. Margaret Mary School
4) Eshelman Avenue Elementary School
October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 26
2 The City will seek a third-party consultant who is a qualified subject matter expert to facilitate and implement the Study by closely examining existing conditions and analyzing data to accurately inform City staff on the current status of all four schools’ built-in environment and physical setting, school population characteristics, transportation, education, and law enforcement. Public engagement components will involve important project stakeholders (such as caregivers, school staff, community members), a bicycle ambassador program, and bilingual communication engagement methods bolstered by a wide spectrum of outreach events including community-based workshops in key Lomita transportation hubs and Council/Commission meetings, as needed.

The Resolution authorizes the City Manager to execute the Agreement, and further authorizes the City Manager to take any other action, such as contracts, agreement extensions, renewals, amendments, and/or other documents which may be necessary to carry out and administer all obligations, responsibilities, and duties of the Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant.

OPTIONS:

1. Approve staff’s recommendation.

2. Take no action. The City will be ineligible to receive funding.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funding from the Agreement will provide for approximately 85% of the expenses and Lomita will contribute approximately 15% ($51,578) through staff time.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
TO: City Council Item No. SCH 8a
FROM: Ryan Smoot, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Carla Dillon, P.E., Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: October 3, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion and Consideration of the Traffic Calming Toolkit

RECOMMENDATION
1) Receive and file the Traffic Calming Toolkit; 2) direct staff to implement recommendations for 262nd Street, Walnut Street, and Pennsylvania Avenue; and 3) direct staff to begin the formation of a Capital Improvement Project to make improvements on Eshelman Avenue to incorporate traffic calming measures.

BACKGROUND
The City retained a consultant, Kimley-Horn, to prepare a Traffic Calming Toolkit with the input of community members.

In July 2023, in conjunction with the Public Safety & Traffic Commission (PS&TC) meeting, a workshop was held to educate community members on traffic calming tools and receive input on perceived areas where vehicles may be speeding or other traffic issues are observed.

Based upon input from residents at the workshop, on-site field visits, and engineering traffic best practices, Kimley-Horn, prepared a Toolkit for staff use in future considerations. The intent of the Toolkit is to provide the Technical Traffic Advisory Committee (TTAC) additional options for addressing specific areas of concern. The tools are divided into 4 categories:
o Tier 1 - low-cost solutions that City staff can implement (reflective striping on sign posts, speed limit painted on road, etc.)
o Tier 2 - mid-level cost solutions that would require a contractor to implement October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 30
2 o Tier 3 - higher cost solutions that would require engineering design then contractor implementation
o Tier 4 - highest level cost and complexity for implementation (vertical displacement such as road closures, traffic circles, speed tables (form of speed bump))
Based upon the Traffic Calming workshop in July, the consultant looked at locations of concern in the City and provided suggestions for Tier 1 solutions for Pennsylvania, 262nd, Walnut, and Tier 2/3 solutions for Eshelman.

On September 20, Kimley-Horn presented the draft toolkit and suggestions for traffic calming tools for specific locations at the PS&TC meeting. The commission heard comments and received and filed the presentation.

OPTIONS:

1. Approve staff’s recommendation.

2. Provide alternate direction.

FISCAL IMPACT
For staff to implement the Tier 1 recommendations for 262nd Street, Walnut Street, and Pennsylvania Avenue, the cost will be approximately $3,500. This can be funded through accounts 207-610-5345 and 205-610-5705.

To complete a capital project for Eshelman Avenue with the suggested elements, the initial rough cost estimate is $620,000 for design and construction as an independent project. If the Council supports proceeding with the project, staff will bring the project to Council at each project stage (award of design services and construction bidding) to appropriate funds. A funding source for this project will need to be determined separately at that time.

TRAFFIC CALMING TOOLKIT
2 INTRODUCTION
What is a Traffic Calming Toolkit?
Traffic calming refers to the use of traffic control strategies to reduce the negative impacts of motor vehicle use, alter driver behavior to reduce undesirable driving practices, and improve conditions for non-motorized street users. The City of Lomita’s Traffic Calming Toolkit provides a succinct yet comprehensive toolkit of solutions that the City can use to respond to requests concerning speeds, cut-through traffic, and other perceived localized traffic issues. The toolkit is intended to provide realistic and flexible solutions that are context-appropriate and improve quality of life for everyone using the City’s streets.

Project Goals
The Traffic Calming Toolkit’s key goals include using this toolkit of traffic calming measures, where appropriate, to:
) Goal #1: Reduce vehicle speeds
) Goal #2: Reduce excess traffic volumes and cut-through traffic on local residential streets ) Goal #3: Improve neighborhood quality of life
Approach
Traffic Calming typically uses a “3 E’s” approach – Education, Enforcement, and Engineering – when considering possible solutions for improved traffic safety.

Background Studies and Plans
Guidance on the Traffic Calming Toolkit process and solutions was provided through a variety of existing standards, programs, and policies. Literature and regulatory framework reviews of guidance documents and City plans were conducted to understand industry standards and policy behind the traffic calming measures described in this report.

Best practices from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) and the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) were included in this toolkit.

Literature Review
Guidance documents and traffic calming methods were reviewed to document current best practices for traffic calming. While developing the Toolkit, the implementation criteria and the effectiveness of each traffic calming measure were based on the following documents:
) California Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD) ) Traffic Calming Guidance Interim Memo (Caltrans)
) Urban Street Design Guide (NACTO)
) Traffic Calming ePrimer (FHWA)
) Proven Safety Countermeasures (FHWA)
Educational programming alerts people to ways they can help ease traffic problems – for example, by reducing their speed, choosing to walk or bike instead of drive, and maintaining awareness of their surroundings.

EDUCATION
Enforcement tools enlist the help of local law enforcement to focus efforts on specific streets to increase community awareness of speeding problems. ENFORCEMENT Engineering tools include a variety of traffic calming devices that redesign the street to control traffic volumes, decrease traffic speeds, create safer walking and bicycling conditions, and maintain or improve an attractive streetscape.

3 Regulatory Framework Review
City plans and programs relevant to the traffic calming toolkit were also reviewed for consistency and to determine potential impacts to the implementation of the traffic calming solutions proposed in this toolkit. The following City documents and policies were reviewed:
) City of Lomita’s General Plan
) City of Lomita’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan
) City of Lomita’s Downtown Lomita Design Manual
) City of Lomita’s Municipal Code
) California Vehicle Code
Public Engagement
The traffic calming toolkit is public-oriented by nature and seeks to involve the public at multiple stages throughout the traffic calming process. The public was solicited to participate in two community workshops in conjunction with the City’s Public Safety and Traffic Commission in order to understand the public’s traffic concerns and gather feedback on the toolkit.

Community Workshop #1
The first community workshop took place in the City of Lomita on Wednesday, July 19th, 2023. The City hosted the workshop to present the project to members of the public and solicit feedback on the traffic concerns throughout the City. The workshop was attended by over 15 members of the public as well as several public officials.

At the start of the workshop, City of Lomita staff and project team members gave a presentation to the group that discussed the goals of the project and the potential traffic calming solutions. Following the presentation, the workshop participants were invited to participate in two map activities. The first activity reinforced the education around traffic calming measures and allowed residents to choose which of the traffic calming solutions they would like to see implemented on a generic map that reflected the City’s streets. The workshop participants were also able to ask questions of the project team and provide their input on the project process.

The second activity allowed the residents to identify their concerns at specific locations throughout the City using colored labels. Concerns related to speeding, cut-through traffic, pedestrian safety, and sight distance/visibility were used to develop the six (6) case study locations and their respective traffic calming solutions. Existing conditions and concerns at the case study locations are described in the case studies section of this report, along with the proposed site-specific traffic calming solutions that follow a tiered approach.

TRAFFIC CALMING TOOLKIT
4 Community Workshop #2
The second community workshop took place in the City of Lomita on September, 20, 2023. The project team presented the draft traffic calming report and case study locations with the proposed improvements.

Understanding the Manual
The Traffic Calming Toolkit was developed as a guide for City of Lomita staff. This report presents a toolkit of traffic calming measures and a summary of improvements at specific locations within the City. It is intended for staff to use the toolkit and measures outlined in this report for identifying and implementing traffic calming solutions in response to public requests. The measures listed in the toolkit intend to address potential traffic problems based on site conditions, tool effectiveness, and other criteria. The report is organized as follows. ) Traffic Calming Process - This section outlines the process through which residents can submit requests for traffic calming solutions and how City staff will evaluate the location(s) in question and select eligible traffic calming tools, and prioritize traffic calming projects. ) Toolkit - This section provides an overview of the specific tools and suites of tools that the City can use to address traffic calming issues.
) Tool Selection - This section provides details on how traffic calming tools are screened for eligibility, evaluated for their effectiveness, potential impacts, and costs.
) Case Study Locations - This section provides details on the case study locations within the City and the proposed site-specific traffic calming solutions, following an incremental tiered approach.

5 TRAFFIC CALMING PROCESS
Project Initiation
The traffic calming process may be utilized if the City’s Technical Traffic Advisory Committee (TTAC) finds the toolkit solutions appropriate. The process includes an online request that provides the following information in a standardized online Traffic Investigation Request form: a description of the traffic issues at hand, the impacted location, and the name and contact information for the person or organization submitting the request.

Traffic Investigation Request forms can be submitted by any private citizen or community, neighborhood, or homeowners’ organization or association. Request forms may be completed and submitted online via the City’s website. In addition to requests made by the public, the traffic calming process may be initiated separately through the identification by City staff of a candidate location or locations.

Once a request form is received and it is determined that enough information is provided, the City’s TTAC will review the candidate location and inform the requester of the evaluation of the matter and action taken. If the matter will be presented at Public Safety and Traffic Commission or City Council, the requester shall be notified.

It should be noted that enforcement and education tools should be exhausted prior to identifying engineering solutions.

Targeted enforcement or traffic laws seeks to increase public awareness of local speed limits and traffic regulations through increased patrols and ticketing of drivers in violation. The level of enforcement that is conducted is dependent on the number of officers that are available and the level of funding available for efforts beyond what is budgeted and considered standard.

Neighborhood traffic education programming seeks to increase public awareness of local speed limits and traffic regulations while also allowing for the public to work with the City to identify and discuss safety issues and residents’ concerns. Education programs may include posting signage or banners in local neighborhoods, distributing flyers or personalized letters to area residents and businesses, hosting public meetings and workshops, and coordinating with local law enforcement, schools, and other organizations.

Project Identification
After determining that traffic calming solutions are appropriate for the impacted location, City staff, in coordination with their Los Angeles County Public Advisor, will conduct a preliminary site assessment to develop an understanding of the site’s local context and review traffic and safety data that may already be available for the location.

After conducting a preliminary site assessment and potentially meeting with stakeholders, City staff will determine what degree of traffic calming solutions will be pursued. The Traffic Calming Toolkit groups traffic calming tools into Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, or Tier 4 solutions. Additional detail regarding the tools within each tier are available in the Traffic Calming Toolkit section.
) Tier 1 solutions consist of tools that are typically low-cost and do not require additional design, making them quicker and easier to implement. Although some tools do require justification such as meeting the recommended criteria and the City Council approval, Tier 1 tools consist of improvements such as simple striping, signage, and pavement marking improvements.
) Tier 2 solutions consist of tools that tend to be slightly costlier and require some design. Tier 2 tools typically consist of improvements that involve constructing roadway features such as crossing improvements and striping treatments such as centerline and edgeline striping. ) Tier 3 solutions consist of tools that tend to be costlier and require more involved study, design, outreach, and construction processes. Tier 3 tools typically consist of improvements that involve constructing raised features on the roadway such as curb extensions, horizontal deflections such as chicanes or median islands, and neighborhood access control.
) Tier 4 solutions consist of tools that tend to be the costliest and require extensive study, design, and construction processes. Tier 4 tools typically consist of improvements that are most invasive such as full road closures and vertical deflections, which include speed kidneys, raised crosswalks, raised intersections, traffic circles, and roundabouts.

7 TOOL SELECTION
This section provides details on how traffic calming tools are screened for eligibility, evaluated for their effectiveness, potential impacts, and costs.

Tool Eligibility & Application
To determine which traffic calming measures are eligible or appropriate for a particular location, the following aspects should be reviewed.

Roadway Functional Class
Certain traffic calming measures are only applicable on certain roadway functional classifications. Roadway classes can generally be categorized as:
) Major Highways (4 lanes, carries traffic between and across the City) ⤷ Pacific Coast Highway, Lomita Boulevard, Crenshaw Boulevard, Western Avenue, and Palos Verdes Drive North
) Secondary Highways (2 lanes, carries traffic across the City, as well as shorter distance local intra-city traffic movement)
⤷ Narbonne Avenue
) Collector (2 lanes, carries traffic from local streets to arterials) ⤷ 250th Street, 255th Street, 262nd Street, Pennsylvania Avenue, Eshelman Avenue, Walnut Avenue, Ebony Street, and Narbonne Avenue north of Lomita Boulevard
) Local streets (2 lanes, carries local neighborhood traffic) Location
Certain traffic calming measures are only applicable at either intersections or along roadway segments.

Posted Speed Limit
Certain traffic calming measures are only appropriate along streets with certain speed limits.

Volume
Certain traffic calming measures are only appropriate on streets with lower volumes.

Cut-Through Traffic
The presence of non-local, cut through traffic can be addressed by certain traffic calming measures.

Other Site Considerations
Depending on how the roadway is used, certain traffic calming measures may not be appropriate. Aspects taken into consideration are whether the roadway contains dedicated bicycle facilities, is a primary transit route, is used extensively by emergency vehicles, whether trucks must utilize the roadway to access commercial and industrial facilities, or whether the street has a significant grade.

9 DESCRIPTION
Roadway striping can be used as a traffic calming measure to narrow travel lane widths and create roadways that more effectively delineate space for various uses. Striping can be used to delineate centerlines, edge lines, parking lanes, and bicycle lanes where previous striping is not present or where the street can be restriped to create a new roadway configuration. The added constraints can reduce speeds by influencing drivers to exercise caution and stay within the designated travel lane(s).

Advantages:
• Can be used to improve access and comfort for
vulnerable road users
• Does not slow emergency vehicles
• Low cost; quick and easy to implement
• Can increase caution and reduce speeds
Disadvantages:
• Requires regular maintenance - consider use of
materials with higher retroreflectivity and durability
ratings to reduce maintenance costs
• Less effective in reducing speed than other tools
Cost:
• $1 per linear foot (LF)
Design Guidance:
• CAMUTCD - Section 3B.01 & 3B.06
• Center line markings shall be placed on all paved
urban arterials and collectors that have a traveled
way of 20 feet or more in width and an ADT of
6,000 vehicles per day or greater. (CA MUTCD
Section 3B.01)
• Center line markingsshall be placed on all paved
two-way streets or highways that have three or
more lanes for moving motor vehicle traffic. (CA
MUTCD Section 3B.01)
• Centerline may be placed on collectors and local
streets so long as the resulting lane width is at least 12 feet.
• The edge line should be placed 2 inch from the
edge of traveled way, approximately 12 feet from
the lane line or centerline. (CA MUTCD Section
3B.06)
• Edgeline markings may be placed on streets and
highways with or without centerline markings.

15 DESCRIPTION
Crossing improvements include a suite of tools to improve pedestrian safety and comfort. Curb extensions, often called bulbouts when used at intersections, create additional sidewalk space for pedestrians while influencing drivers to reduce their speeds via reductions in lane width and increased curb radii. Pedestrian refuge islands provide a safe space within a roadway median for pedestrians to focus on one direction of oncoming traffic at a time and wait for a safe gap to cross the street. Roadway reconfiguration reconfigures the roadway by reducing the number of travel lanes along roadways with more than one lane in each direction and repurposing the space through the addition of curbside parking, medians with left-turn pockets or center two-way left-turn lanes, and/or dedicated bicycle facilities. Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) flash LED lights to enhance pedestrian conspicuity and increase driver awareness at uncontrolled marked crosswalks.

Advantages:

For Bulbouts, Pedestrian Reguge Island, & RRFBs: For Roadway Reconfiguration:
• Increases driver awareness of the pedestrian crossing • Reduces pedestrian crossings at unmarked locations
• Reduce vehicle speed and vehicle-pedestrian collisions • Opportunity to increase aesthetic appeal
• Demonstrated effectiveness in reducing vehicle speed
and collisions/collision severity
• May facilitate modal shift if used to install dedicated bicycle facilities
• Typically moderate cost to implement
Disadvantages:

For Bulbouts, Pedestrian Reguge Island, & RRFBs: For Roadway Reconfiguration:
• Can be costly to implement
• Bulbouts may complicate drainage design
• Bulbouts may interrupt bicycle facilities and/or reduce road space for bicyclists
• Refuge islands may cause pedestrian crossing time to
increase waiting for gap in traffic
• Bulbouts may reduce on-street parking
• Bulbouts may impact right-turning emergency vehicles, buses, and trucks
• Reduces vehicle capacity of the roadway, potentially
increasing congestion
• May increase vehicle traffic and congestion on alternate parallel roadways
• Increased congestion may slow emergency vehicles and
transit
• Requires lengthy study and public engagement process
prior to implementation
Cost:
• $25,000-$50,000 Curb Extension (Bulbout)
• Roadway Reconfiguration costs vary based on
configuration changes
• $20,000-$40,000 per Pedestrian Refuge Island
• $25,000-$35,000 per Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon Design Guidance:
• CAMUTCD, FHWA Guidelines
Criteria
• RRFBs are recommended at mid-block locations based on Table 1 of FHWA’s Guide for Improving Pedestrian Safety at Uncontrolled Crossing Locations found in Appendix 1.

Effectiveness:
• Studies have found lateral shifts
can reduce the 85th percentile
speed by 11 mph.*
• Studies have found that chicanes
can reduce the 85th percentile
speed by 8 - 12 mph.**
• Studies have found medians can
reduce fatal collisions by 50%.*

DESCRIPTION
Horizontal deflections are a suite of tools that create horizontal shifts in the roadway alignment, hindering the ability of drivers to travel in a straight line and forcing speed reductions to navigate. A lateral shift utilizes curb extensions to shift the roadway alignment in at least one direction. Chicanes are versions of a lateral shift, with multiple shifts in the roadway alignment forming S-shaped curves. A two-lane choker utilizes curb extensions at a mid-block location to physically narrow the roadway, while a one-lane choker does the same to reduce the roadway to one lane, forcing drivers to yield to and negotiate oncoming traffic. Medians and partial medians are raised islands along a roadway centerline that narrow the travel lanes and separate opposing traffic. While typically constructed using curb extensions, horizontal deflections can be accomplished with striping, signing, and delineators to lesser effect.

Criteria:
• An origin-destination study demonstrates at least 25% of the facility’s traffic volume is non-local traffic. An origindestination study uses vehicle’s license plates along with timestamps at each end of a segment to determine if a
vehicle is local or non-local.
• A through circulation and diversion study is required before installation.

DESCRIPTION
Neighborhood access control consist of a suite of tools that divert traffic away from select neighborhood streets, forcing drivers to use alternate routes. Forced turn islands are raised islands that restrict certain turning movements at an intersection approach, typically forcing drivers to turn right. Median barriers use raised islands along the centerline of a primary street to prevent through movements and left turns from side streets. Diagonal diverters place a raised barrier diagonally across an intersection to block through movements from each direction. Partial closures install permanent barriers such as islands, gates, or cul-de-sac conversions to close the street to traffic in one direction. The design of some of these tools can be modified to allow bicycle traffic to proceed unimpeded.

DESCRIPTION
Modern roundabouts are large, raised islands that serve as a form of intersection control and are typically used in place of a traffic signal when upgrading a four-way stop-controlled intersection.

Drivers circulate counterclockwise around the raised feature to traverse the intersection. Approaches to the intersection are yield-controlled and typically have flared entry lanes that increase capacity for the intersection and raised splitter islands that deflect and form gaps in traffic. Roundabouts substantially lower collision risk by reducing potential conflict points within an intersection.

Advantages:
• Eliminates cut-through traffic
• May improve intersection safety by reduing conflict
points
• Reduces noise pollution in immediate vicinity
Disadvantages:
• Eliminates cut-through traffic
• May improve intersection safety by reduing conflict
points
• Reduces noise pollution in immediate vicinity
Cost:
• Up to $100,000 for Full Closure
Design Guidance:
• FHWA Traffic Calming ePrimer
Criteria:
• An origin-destination study demonstrates at least
25% of the facility’s traffic volume is non-local
traffic. An origin-destination study uses vehicle’s
license plates along with timestamps at each end
of a segment to determine if a vehicle is local or
non-local.
• A through circulation and diversion study is
required before installation.

DESCRIPTION
Neighborhood access control diverts traffic away from select neighborhood streets, forcing drivers to use alternate routes. Full closures install permanent barriers such as islands, gates, or culde-sac conversions to close the street to traffic in both directions.

The design of some of these tools can be modified to allow bicycle traffic to proceed unimpeded.

25 Advantages:
• Demonstrated effectiveness in reducing vehicle
speed and cut-through traffic
• May reduce traffic volumes and collision activity
• Typically low to moderate cost
Disadvantages:
• May inadvertently divert traffic onto
adjacent streets
• May increase noise and air pollution as
vehicles accelerate and decelerate
• Some tools slow transit, emergency vehicles,
and trucks
• May complicate drainage design
• May reduce on-street parking
Cost:
• $15,000-$20,000 per speed kidney
• $15,000-$20,000 per speed table
Design Guidance:
• FHWA Publication No. FHWA-HRT-15-030
• Speed tables typical height is 3-3.5” and 22’ length
• Arrangement of three speed lumps spaced
3-4’ apart
Criteria:
• Recommend to install vertical deflections where the
85th percentile speed exceeds the posted limit by
more than 5 mph and/or a segment with a history of
speed related collisions.
• A through circulation and diversion study is required before installation.

Effectiveness:
• Studies have found speed tables can reduce the
85th percentile speed by 5 mph.*
• Studies have found speed kidneys can reduce the
85th percentile speed by 11.2 mph.**

DESCRIPTION
Vertical deflections are a suite of tools consisting of raised features along a roadway that force vehicles to reduce speed to comfortably traverse them. Speed kidneys are a series of elongated raised features with a curvilinear shape in the direction of traffic, giving vehicles the option to either pass over them or take a curvilinear path to avoid vertical discomfort. Speed tables are wider, flat-topped raised features that can accommodate most vehicles ‘wheelbases, allowing slightly faster crossing speeds.

Speed tables can be improved with crosswalk markings to create a raised crosswalk or expanded to cover an entire intersection to create a raised intersection.

pedestrian collisions by 45%.**

DESCRIPTION
Vertical deflections are a suite of tools consisting of raised features along a roadway that force vehicles to reduce speed to comfortably traverse them. Traffic circles are used to slow down vehicular traffic at unsignalized intersections and feature landscaping to help focus road user attention on approaching traffic. Raised crosswalks provide an elevated crossing to reduce vehicle speed and better place pedestrians in a drivers field of vision. Raised intersections provide similar benefits to raised crosswalks but span the larger intersection area.

51 APPENDIX 1
16 Guide for Improving Pedestrian Safety at Uncontrolled Crossing Locations Select Countermeasure(s)
Table 1 provides initial countermeasure
options for various roadway conditions. Each
matrix cell indicates possibilities that may
be appropriate for designated pedestrian
crossings. Not all of the countermeasures
listed in the matrix cell should necessarily be
installed at a crossing.

For multi-lane roadway crossings with
vehicle AADTs exceeding 10,000, a marked
crosswalk alone is typically insufficient
(Zegeer, 2005). Under such conditions, more
substantial crossing improvements (such as
the refuge island, PHB, and RRFB) are also
needed to prevent an increase in pedestrian
crash potential.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Ryan Smoot, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Gary Y. Sugano, Assistant City Manager
MEETING DATE: October 3, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion and Consideration of a Resolution Amending Citywide Comprehensive User Fees and Charges

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the attached resolution implementing the fee schedule effective December 4, 2023.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
Under the State Constitution, public agencies can impose fees for government services when (1) the individual’s decision to use the service is voluntary or subject to regulation and (2) the fees charged to an individual user are reasonably related to the level of service rendered and the cost of providing the service. The calculated cost of providing such service may include direct (e.g., hourly labor rate), indirect costs (e.g., benefits) and capital cost (e.g., information technology infrastructure). A fee may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the service or performing the activity.

On January 17, 2023, the City Council adopted a resolution establishing a revised master fee schedule to reflect a year-over-year CPI of 7.5%.

On January 18, 2022, the City Council adopted a resolution establishing a comprehensive master fee schedule applicable across all city departments. This updated all user fees based on current staff hourly rates (including benefits) including permissible overhead.

In addition, a number of new fees were enacted to recover costs associated with plan checks related to private development and water utility activities, electric charging station, and clerk related fees.

Minor amendments are proposed as part of this action. For the Community Development Department, massage-related fees that were adopted in 2015 will be incorporated into the master fee schedule. In addition, clarifying language for administrative site plan and Item No. PH 9a

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 86
2 sign review have been added as well as an updated landscape review fee and annual affordable housing recertification fee.

Recreation
The Lomita Railroad Museum rental fee is being proposed at a straight $54/hr. instead of $54/hr. for the first hour and $47/hr. for each hour thereafter.

Public Works
A fee of $1,742 for new water service connections is proposed as well as a reduction in fees for the second and third days of a moving package and temporary parking fees (for trailers, pods, etc.). Placement of above-ground assets such as overhead cable lines would be a straight $462.25 plan check fee + the permit fee instead of being calculated at that cost every 50 linear feet.

OPTIONS:

1. Adopt the attached resolution implementing the fee schedule effective December 4, 2023.

2. Provide further direction to staff.

FISCAL IMPACT
Negligible.

MEETING DATE: October 3, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion and Consideration of an Ordinance to Amend Chapter 5 (Administrative Citations and Penalties) of Title I of the Lomita Municipal Code to Align the Administrative Citation Appeal Method with the Parking Citation Appeal Method

RECOMMENDATION
After the City Attorney reads the title, introduce on first reading Ordinance No. 858 amending Chapter 5 (Administrative Citations and Penalties) of Title I of the Lomita Municipal Code (LMC) to an amendment to Lomita Municipal Code Title I (General Provisions),Chapter 5 (Administrative Citations and Penalties) to align the administrative citation appeal method with the parking citation appeal method; and Find the action to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act.

BACKGROUND
Chapter 5 of Title 1 of the Lomita Municipal Code (LMC) outlines the City’s procedures for administrative citations, payment and appeal, and collection. The number of violations and citations in the last year have increased and, as a result, the number of appeals has increased. In November of 2022, City Council authorized Data Ticket to provide code enforcement collection services alongside parking enforcement. Throughout the implementation process, staff has updated procedures and policies to align with those recommended by Data Ticket to improve collection and compliance, including a March 2023 update providing a hardship waiver for appellants. Staff has now prepared an ordinance update (redlined in Attachment 1; draft ordinance in Attachment 2) to improve the process, provide timely resolution, and align appeal procedures with parking enforcement.

The draft ordinance proposes to amend LMC Sec. 1-5.07 to allow for the submission of administrative citation appeals online. Citation Processing Center allows for a quick and simple appeal process and handles the clerical aspect of the appeal. As with any parking Mayor and City Council Item No. PH 9b

(c) Initial administrative review—Decision.
(1) Within fifteen (15) days upon receiving the request, the department director shall review the request and provide the city clerk, or his or her designee, with written notification that:
a. The citation should be vacated because there was no violation, or the responsible person was not responsible for the violation, and setting forth the basis for that conclusion; or
b. There is no justification found for vacating the citation; or. c. a reduction in fine amount for a violation justified by meaningful progress per department director supervising the enforcement officer who issued the administrative citation for review.
(2) The city clerk, or his or her designee, shall mail Aa copy of the decisionshall be mailed to the responsible person at the address on the request for initial administrative review along with a notice establishing the fine due date and the procedure for requesting an administrative hearing.
(d) Request for hearing. If the responsible person wishes to contest the conclusion of the initial administrative review, the responsible person shall request an administrative hearing within fifteen (15) days after the date the city served the responsible person with notice of the initial administrative review decision. Requests must be submitted to the city clerkonline as directed by the issued citation and be accompanied by an advance deposit of the fine.
(1) Hardship waiver. Any responsible person who requests a hearing to contest an administrative citation and who is financially unable to deposit the fine amount may file a request for an advance deposit hardship waiver. The request shall be filed with [the] city clerk on an advance deposit hardship waiver application form, available from the city, no later than ten (10) days after service of the administrative citation. The city manager or his or her designee may issue an October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 122
advance deposit hardship waiver only if the person requesting the waiver submits to the city manager or his or her designee a sworn affidavit, together with any supporting documents, demonstrating to the satisfaction of the city manager or his or her designee the person's financial inability to deposit with the city the full amount of the fine in advance of the hearing. Written proof of financial hardship, at a minimum, must include tax returns, financial statements, bank account records, salary records or similar documentation demonstrating that the responsible person is unable to deposit the fine. The city manager or his or her designee shall issue a written decision specifying the reasons for issuing or not issuing the waiver. The decision shall be final and shall be served upon the person requesting the waiver in person, by first class mail, or similar method of delivery. If the city manager or his or her designee determines that the waiver is not warranted, the person shall remit the full amount of the fine as a deposit within ten (10) days of mailing/sending of the decision. If the full amount of the fine is not deposited within the ten (10) day period, the request for hearing shall be deemed incomplete and waived, and the citation shall be deemed final. The fine shall be immediately due and owing to the city and may be collected in any manner allowed by law for collection of a debt.
(e) Notification of hearing. Upon receipt of the payment of the administrative fine and request for a hearing, the city shall give notice to the responsible person of the time, date, and location of the hearing. The hearing shall be held not less than fifteen (15) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request. Any documentation, other than the administrative citation, that the enforcement official has submitted or will submit to the hearing officer shall be sent to the responsible person by regular first class mail at least five (5) days before the date on which the hearing is scheduled. The documentation shall be made available upon request at the time of the hearing.
(f) Selection of hearing officer. The city manager may designate the hearing officer for the administrative citation hearing by appointment, contract, or through an administrative citation processing service. The hearing officer must be selected in a manner that avoids the potential for pecuniary or other bias. (g) Evidentiary rules. The city bears the burden of proving a violation of the Code by a preponderance of the evidence. The administrative citation and any additional reports submitted by the enforcement official constitutes prima facie evidence of the respective facts contained in those documents. Both the responsible person and the enforcement officer have the opportunity to testify, cross-examine witnesses and present additional evidence concerning the administrative citation. Evidence may include, without limitation, witness testimony, documents, or other similar evidence.

Formal rules of evidence do not apply, but all evidence presented must be relevant and material to the issues of whether the violation alleged in the citation occurred or whether the responsible person was responsible for the violation. (h) Waiver of personal appearance at hearing. In lieu of personally appearing at an administrative hearing, the responsible person may request that the hearing officer decide the matter based upon the citation itself and written argument and any October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 123
documentary evidence signed under penalty of perjury submitted prior to the time of the scheduled hearing by the responsible person.
(i) Failure to appear at hearing. Failure of a responsible person to appear at the hearing is deemed a waiver of the right to be personally present at the hearing. The hearing officer may then decide the matter based upon the citation itself, any documentary evidence previously submitted, and any additional evidence that may be presented at the hearing by the enforcement officer.
(j) Attendance of enforcement officer. The enforcement officer who issued the administrative citation may, but is not required to, attend the administrative hearing.

If the enforcement officer does not attend, the enforcement officer may before the hearing date submit reports, photos, or other documentation regarding the violation to the hearing officer for consideration at the hearing. (k) Continuation of hearings. The hearing officer may continue any hearing and request additional information from the enforcement officer or responsible person before issuing a written decision.
(l) Decision of hearing officer. Based upon the evidence presented, the hearing officer shall provide a written decision to the parties within fifteen (15) days of the hearing with one of the following determinations:
(1) Determine that the violation for which the citation was issued occurred, and impose a fine in the amount set forth in the fine and penalty schedule, and if the violation has not been corrected as of the date of the hearing, order correction or abatement of the violation. In this event, the city can retain the fine deposited by the responsible person.
(2) Determine that the violation for which the citation was issued occurred, but that the responsible person has introduced credible evidence of mitigating circumstances warranting imposition of a lesser fine than that prescribed in the fine and penalty schedule, or no fine at all, and impose such lesser fine, if any; and if the violation has not been corrected as of the date of the hearing, order correction or abatement of the violation. In this event, the city can retain all or a portion of the fine deposited by the responsible person as applicable. (3) Determine that the violation for which the citation was issued did not occur or that the condition did not constitute a violation of this Code, or that the person cited was not the responsible person. In this event, the city shall refund the deposit, if any, within fifteen (15) days of the decision. A finding by the hearing officer that no violation occurred constitutes a dismissal of the administrative citation at issue, but does not have any effect on any other administrative citations issued or any other action taken by the city. (m) The administrative hearing officer's decision must explain the basis for the decision and be served upon the responsible person by first class mail to the address stated on the request for hearing form. If applicable, the order must set forth the date by which compliance must be achieved and the imposed fine paid to the city. The order is final on the date of mailing, which is deemed the "date of service," and must notify the responsible person of the right to appeal to the Superior Court, as further October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 124
described in section 1-5.08. There is no right to an appeal other than as provided in section 1-5.08. The administrative hearing officer's decision shall be the final administrative order and decision pursuant to Government Code § 53069.4(b). (Ord. No. 769, § 1, 6-2-14; Ord. No. 846 , § 3(C, D), 3-21-23) October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 125
ORDINANCE NO. 858

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER 5 OF TITLE I OF THE LOMITA

MUNICIPAL CODE TO ALIGN THE ADMINISTRATIVE CITATION

APPEAL METHOD WITH THE PARKING CITATION APPEAL METHOD

AND FINDING THE SAME EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA

ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
Section 1. Recitals
WHEREAS, in November of 2022, the City Council authorized Data Ticket to provide code enforcement collection services alongside parking enforcement; WHEREAS, throughout the implementation process, staff has updated procedures and policies to align with those recommended by Data Ticket to improve collection and compliance;
WHEREAS, the proposed ordinance is intended to streamline and improve the administrative citation appeals process and procedures; WHEREAS, the City Council desires to amend the Lomita Municipal Code as described below.

Section 2. Findings
The City Council finds that adoption and implementation of this ordinance is not a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as that term is defined by CEQA guidelines (Guidelines) sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(5). The City Council also alternatively finds that the adoption and implementation of this ordinance is exempt from the provisions of CEQA as an administrative activity that will not result in any direct or indirect physical change in the environment, per sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines.

Attachment No. 2
October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 126
“Sec. 1-5.07. Administrative review and hearing.
(a) Initial administrative review—Request. The responsible person may request an initial administrative review of the citation within fifteen (15) days of its issuance by submitting an online request as directed on the issued citation. This request must be made in writing and set forth with particularity the reasons the responsible person believes a violation did not occur or that the responsible person was not responsible for the violation(s); must include a copy of the citation; and contain the address to which the conclusions of the city's review should be mailed. A request for an initial administrative review is a mandatory prerequisite to a request for an administrative hearing.
(b) Initial administrative review—Procedure. The initial administrative review request shall be forwarded to the department director supervising the enforcement officer who issued the administrative citation for review.
(c) Initial administrative review—Decision.
(1) Within fifteen (15) days upon receiving the request, the department director shall review the request and provide the city clerk, or his or her designee, with written notification that:
a. The citation should be vacated because there was no violation, or the responsible person was not responsible for the violation, and setting forth the basis for that conclusion; or
b. There is no justification found for vacating the citation; or c. a reduction in fine amount for a violation justified by meaningful progress per department director supervising the enforcement officer who issued the administrative citation for review.
(2) A copy of the decision shall be mailed to the responsible person at the address on the request for initial administrative review along with a notice establishing the fine due date and the procedure for requesting an administrative hearing. (d) Request for hearing. If the responsible person wishes to contest the conclusion of the initial administrative review, the responsible person shall request an administrative hearing within fifteen (15) days after the date the city served the responsible person with notice of the initial administrative review decision. Requests must be submitted online as directed by the issued citation and be accompanied by an advance deposit of the fine.
(1) Hardship waiver. Any responsible person who requests a hearing to contest an administrative citation and who is financially unable to deposit the fine amount may file a request for an advance deposit hardship waiver. The request shall be filed with [the] city clerk on an advance deposit hardship waiver application form, available from the city, no later than ten (10) days after service of the administrative citation. The city manager or his or her designee may issue an advance deposit hardship waiver only if the person requesting the waiver submits to the city manager or his or her designee a sworn affidavit, together October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 127
with any supporting documents, demonstrating to the satisfaction of the city manager or his or her designee the person's financial inability to deposit with the city the full amount of the fine in advance of the hearing. Written proof of financial hardship, at a minimum, must include tax returns, financial statements, bank account records, salary records or similar documentation demonstrating that the responsible person is unable to deposit the fine. The city manager or his or her designee shall issue a written decision specifying the reasons for issuing or not issuing the waiver. The decision shall be final and shall be served upon the person requesting the waiver in person, by first class mail, or similar method of delivery. If the city manager or his or her designee determines that the waiver is not warranted, the person shall remit the full amount of the fine as a deposit within ten (10) days of mailing/sending of the decision. If the full amount of the fine is not deposited within the ten (10) day period, the request for hearing shall be deemed incomplete and waived, and the citation shall be deemed final. The fine shall be immediately due and owing to the city and may be collected in any manner allowed by law for collection of a debt.
(e) Notification of hearing. Upon receipt of the payment of the administrative fine and request for a hearing, the city shall give notice to the responsible person of the time, date, and location of the hearing. The hearing shall be held not less than fifteen (15) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request. Any documentation, other than the administrative citation, that the enforcement official has submitted or will submit to the hearing officer shall be sent to the responsible person by regular first class mail at least five (5) days before the date on which the hearing is scheduled. The documentation shall be made available upon request at the time of the hearing.
(f) Selection of hearing officer. The city manager may designate the hearing officer for the administrative citation hearing by appointment, contract, or through an administrative citation processing service. The hearing officer must be selected in a manner that avoids the potential for pecuniary or other bias. (g) Evidentiary rules. The city bears the burden of proving a violation of the Code by a preponderance of the evidence. The administrative citation and any additional reports submitted by the enforcement official constitutes prima facie evidence of the respective facts contained in those documents. Both the responsible person and the enforcement officer have the opportunity to testify, cross-examine witnesses and present additional evidence concerning the administrative citation. Evidence may include, without limitation, witness testimony, documents, or other similar evidence.

Formal rules of evidence do not apply, but all evidence presented must be relevant and material to the issues of whether the violation alleged in the citation occurred or whether the responsible person was responsible for the violation. (h) Waiver of personal appearance at hearing. In lieu of personally appearing at an administrative hearing, the responsible person may request that the hearing officer decide the matter based upon the citation itself and written argument and any documentary evidence signed under penalty of perjury submitted prior to the time of the scheduled hearing by the responsible person.

October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 128
(i) Failure to appear at hearing. Failure of a responsible person to appear at the hearing is deemed a waiver of the right to be personally present at the hearing. The hearing officer may then decide the matter based upon the citation itself, any documentary evidence previously submitted, and any additional evidence that may be presented at the hearing by the enforcement officer.
(j) Attendance of enforcement officer. The enforcement officer who issued the administrative citation may, but is not required to, attend the administrative hearing.

If the enforcement officer does not attend, the enforcement officer may before the hearing date submit reports, photos, or other documentation regarding the violation to the hearing officer for consideration at the hearing. (k) Continuation of hearings. The hearing officer may continue any hearing and request additional information from the enforcement officer or responsible person before issuing a written decision.
(l) Decision of hearing officer. Based upon the evidence presented, the hearing officer shall provide a written decision to the parties within fifteen (15) days of the hearing with one of the following determinations:
(1) Determine that the violation for which the citation was issued occurred, and impose a fine in the amount set forth in the fine and penalty schedule, and if the violation has not been corrected as of the date of the hearing, order correction or abatement of the violation. In this event, the city can retain the fine deposited by the responsible person.
(2) Determine that the violation for which the citation was issued occurred, but that the responsible person has introduced credible evidence of mitigating circumstances warranting imposition of a lesser fine than that prescribed in the fine and penalty schedule, or no fine at all, and impose such lesser fine, if any; and if the violation has not been corrected as of the date of the hearing, order correction or abatement of the violation. In this event, the city can retain all or a portion of the fine deposited by the responsible person as applicable. (3) Determine that the violation for which the citation was issued did not occur or that the condition did not constitute a violation of this Code, or that the person cited was not the responsible person. In this event, the city shall refund the deposit, if any, within fifteen (15) days of the decision. A finding by the hearing officer that no violation occurred constitutes a dismissal of the administrative citation at issue, but does not have any effect on any other administrative citations issued or any other action taken by the city. (m) The administrative hearing officer's decision must explain the basis for the decision and be served upon the responsible person by first class mail to the address stated on the request for hearing form. If applicable, the order must set forth the date by which compliance must be achieved and the imposed fine paid to the city. The order is final on the date of mailing, which is deemed the "date of service," and must notify the responsible person of the right to appeal to the Superior Court, as further described in section 1-5.08. There is no right to an appeal other than as provided in October 3, 2023, Reg. CC Mtg., Page # 129
section 1-5.08. The administrative hearing officer's decision shall be the final administrative order and decision pursuant to Government Code § 53069.4(b).” Section 4. Effective Date.

This ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after the date of its passage and adoption; and within fifteen (15) days after its passage and adoption, the City Clerk shall cause a copy of this ordinance to be published in accordance with the provisions of the law. The City Clerk shall certify the adoption of this ordinance.
