Councilmember Gazeley made a motion, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Waite, to approve the recommended action.
MOTION CARRIED by the following vote:
AYES: Councilmembers Gazeley, Uphoff, Mayor Pro Tem Waite, and Mayor Segawa NOES: None
ABSENT: Waronek
Introduced the following titled ordinance:
ORDINANCE NO. 883 – AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA AMENDING LOMITA MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 11-1.30.06 RELATING TO
ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS AND JUNIOR ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS AND

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Introduce an Ordinance amending the Lomita Municipal Code related to vehicle towing and abatement authority for first reading, waive further reading, and schedule the ordinance for second reading and adoption at a subsequent City Council meeting.
Assistant City Manager Hernandez introduced Community Safety Manager Lawson, who gave the presentation. The City’s Community Safety Officers work with Lomita Station on parking and vehicle abatement issues. The Municipal Code authorizes, but does not clearly identify, which City personnel may initiate towing or abatement actions, and this lack of clarity has created operational ambiguity. The code amendment would clarify and modernize existing provisions by expressly authorizing Community Safety Officers to initiate actions, and it would align the Municipal Code with current enforcement practices while preserving all existing notice, hearing, appeal, and due process requirements.
As there was no City Council discussion, Mayor Segawa opened the public hearing at 7:57 p.m.
David Popelka, Lomita resident, shared safety concerns for City employees acting in a law enforcement capacity.

FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Susan Kamada, Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: February 2026 Treasury and investment Report
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Receive and file the Treasury and Investment Report.
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to Section 41004 of the Government Code of the State of California, the City Treasurer is required to submit a monthly report of all receipts, disbursements and fund balances. The first page of the report summarizes the investment activity for the month and distribution by type of investment, held by the City. The second and third page lists all investments with original maturities exceeding one year as of the month ended February 28, 2026. The fourth page of the report provides a summary of the beginning balance, total receipts, total disbursements, the ending balance for all funds, and a listing, by fund, of all month end fund balances.
In summary, all investments of the City of Lomita are in compliance with both the Government Code and our Investment Policy. In addition, the City has sufficient liquidity to meet its expenditure requirements for the ensuing six months.
8.56% of the City’s funds are with the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The remaining funds of the City of Lomita are in active checking accounts, money market funds, U.S. Treasuries, Federal Agency Securities, Corporate Bonds, and FDICinsured Negotiable Certificates of Deposit that are in compliance with the California Government Code and the City’s Investment Policy. The current value of each account is obtained from actual monthly statements for the period ending February 28, 2026.

*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.

2. General Liability Coverage. CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by CONSULTANT or by its employees, subconsultants, or subconsultants. 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,” CONSULTANT 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 Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *49
#11311428v1
was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, 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. CONSULTANT also agrees to require all CONSULTANTs, and subconsultants 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 CONSULTANT, 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. CONSULTANT agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against CONSULTANT 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, CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *50
#11311428v1
E. CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12 above.
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 CONSULTANT (as the named insured) should CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONSULTANT as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CONSULTANT’S behalf upon CONSULTANT’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 CONSULTANT for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.
19. USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any CONSULTANTs while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed CONSULTANT and the terms of compensation.
20. FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONSULTANT’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 CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-CONSULTANTs 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 CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-CONSULTANTs and agents.

#11311428v1
21. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during CITY’S review of CONSULTANT’S report or plans. Should the CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT. 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 CONSULTANT under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.
22. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT’S services beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement shall cover payment for CONSULTANT’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.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Juan Ibarra, Senior Management Analyst
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: City of Lomita Coyote Management Plan
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the City of Lomita Coyote Management Plan.
BACKGROUND
Urban coyote activity has become increasingly common throughout Southern California as wildlife habitats and developed areas continue to overlap. Coyotes are highly adaptable animals and are frequently found in residential neighborhoods where food sources and shelter are available. As a result, many local jurisdictions have developed educational resources and response guidelines intended to reduce potential conflicts between residents and urban wildlife.
At its meeting on December 2, 2025, staff presented the City Council with potential approaches for addressing coyote activity within the Lomita community. The presentation included an overview of neighboring cities that have adopted Coyote Management Plans, as well as information regarding the Coyote Incident and Response Matrix, types of response strategies used by other jurisdictions, potential CEQA implications, fiscal considerations, and policy options for Lomita to consider when developing its own plan.
CITY OF LOMITA
CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 7f
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *63
2 During the meeting, staff outlined several coyote mitigation approaches, including education and response-based strategies, as well as more complex and involved abatement program. The presentation explained that the cost for full-service abatement program would cost at least $80,000 annually and would require a comprehensive environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Based on City Council direction, staff has focused on developing a Coyote Management Plan that emphasizes public education, reporting mechanisms, and coordinated responses to coyote sightings and incidents in lieu of a full-service coyote abatement program.
DISCUSSION
Following the December 2025 presentation, staff continued developing a Coyote Management Plan intended to serve as an educational resource for residents and a framework for appropriate responses to coyote sightings and encounters.
Coyote Management Plan
The goal of the Coyote Management Plan is to mitigate incidents involving urban coyotes through education about behavior modification, and the implementation of a tiered response system based on observed coyote behavior. Key components of the plan include information regarding coyote behavior, methods for reducing attractants, deterrence methods, pet safety recommendations, public outreach, education/reporting and humane hazing techniques intended to discourage coyotes from approaching people or residential areas.
The plan recommends hazing when interacting with coyotes. Hazing is a humane technique used to reinforce a coyote’s natural fear of humans and discourages undesirable behavior, particularly as some coyotes have become habituated to human presence.
Appropriate hazing techniques include:
Standing tall and facing the coyote
Making loud noises, such as yelling or clapping
Waving arms or using noise-making devices
Throwing small objects toward, but not at, the coyote Spraying water using a hose or spray bottle
Hazing should continue until the coyote retreats. It should never place a person at risk or direct a coyote into traffic or toward other people. Injured or sick animals should not be hazed. Hazing should only be performed when it can be done safely.
Response Plan
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *64
3 The plan establishes a tiered response system that triggers both a resident and City actions based on the severity of coyote behavior. The system uses a color-coded scale to indicate response levels. The most aggressive response involves staff coordination with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to investigate the situation, which may result in the capture or removal of the coyote.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *65
3 Public Outreach, Education, and Reporting
The City will use multiple communication platforms, including the City website, social media, City mobile app Lomita Connect, digital newsletters, community meetings, and printed material to share information on coyote activity, seasonal behavior, pet safety, attractants reduction, and hazing techniques. The plan includes educational materials and guidance to ensure residents have access to clear, consistent information regarding coyote safety and reporting procedures.
Residents and business may report coyote sightings through the City website and the City app. Community Safety staff will review the reports, document activity, coordinate with other City departments as needed, and implement appropriate response actions consistent with the Coyote Management Plan’s tiered response framework.
If approved, the Coyote Management Plan will be updated by staff on a as needed basis to reflect best practices, community needs, and observed trends in coyote activity.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 1: Safety & Security - Keeping Lomita safe, prepared and resilient.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Susan Kamada, Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Exchange of Proposition A Funds between the City of Lomita and the City of Commerce
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the execution of the Proposition A Assignment Agreement for the sale of $1,214,582 of Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (“Metro”) Prop A funds to the City of Commerce in exchange for $850,000 of unrestricted General Fund.
BACKGROUND
Voter-approved Proposition A Local Return Funds (Prop A), administered and distributed by Metro, are restricted and can only be used for transit operational needs such as DialA-Ride, transit operations, new equipment acquisition and transit related infrastructure needs. The City’s current balance of Prop A funds is approximately $1,714,796.
DISCUSSION
MTA Local Return funds, such as Prop A, expire four years of receipt. If the City does not expend the funds within four years it is required to return the funds to MTA. The City’s paratransit program does not typically expend the full allocation each fiscal year and a reserve balance accumulates. In the past, the City has sold excess Prop A funds with the proceeds transferred to the general fund.
The MTA allows cities to trade or exchange Prop A funds for General Fund dollars.
Historically, the market rate for the exchanging of Prop A funds has been $0.70 to the dollar, as been the case for some years.

2 FISCAL IMPACT
The transaction between Lomita and Commerce will effectively convert $1.2 Million of restricted funds into $850,000 of general funds that can be used for general municipal services and operations. The exchange will result in a decrease in the fund balance to the City’s Prop A fund in the amount of $1,214,285 and an increase to the General Fund in the amount of $850,000.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Adrian Fernandez, Community and Economic Development Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Renewal of the Los Angeles Region Imagery Acquisition Consortium (LARIAC) for Highly Accurate Digital Aerial Imagery and Elevation Datasets and Geographic Information System (GIS) Module
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the Participation Agreement with the County of Los Angeles of the Los Angeles Region Imagery Acquisition for an amount of $23,554 for three years.
BACKGROUND
At its meeting on March 21, 2023, the City Council passed a Participation Agreement with the County of Los Angeles for the Los Angeles Region Imagery Acquisition (LARIAC), which includes access to its GIS module. GIS provides a valuable tool for cities to view, manage, and retain information about public assets and private parcels.
On January 29, 2026, staff sent a letter of intent to participate in the 2026 LARIAC Version 8 (v8) (Attachment 2), as requested by the County. The higher the number of participants, the lower the participation cost. Some 60 cities have signed on to participate, as well as 39 County departments, 17 local, state, and federal agencies, 15 educational institutions, and 6 non-government/private/research organizations.
DISCUSSION
There is an increased need for cities to have GIS readily available. Grant/funding organizations typically ask for project boundaries in GIS coordinates and regulatory agencies have sent information for validation solely in GIS file format. Public Works, Planning, and Code Enforcement staff routinely rely on high quality aerial photos to observe field conditions without leaving the office, which is much more time efficient. The
CITY OF LOMITA
CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 7h
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *88
2 GIS module also provides historical aerial photographs often used to establish unpermitted work and progression of properties.
The City currently relies on the data and GIS module from LARIAC v7 based on a participation agreement with Los Angeles County. The City owns the data but not the GIS module. Also, old aerial photographs are not as useful for staff. A renewed participation agreement for LARIAC v.8 means the City will own recent high quality aerial photographs and elevation datasets.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for LARIAC v8 services will be $23,554 over a three-year period. The funds are will be appropriated in the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 6: High Performing Organization – Strengthening City services through innovation and excellence.

FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Deanna Fraley, PE, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Presentation of Concept Designs for Lomita's Local Travel Network
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve conceptual design for the Lomita Local Travel Network and authorize staff to proceed to final design.
BACKGROUND
Over the past 15 years, the South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG) conducted research that demonstrated approximately 70% of trips in the South Bay occur within 3 miles of an individual’s home, and 90% are within 10 miles. The data showed that these trips are too short for the frequency and quality of the transit service in the South Bay, but too far to walk. By replacing the trips that are currently being made with internal combustion engine powered cars with zero-emission micromobility vehicles, greenhouse gas emissions would be reduced.
To encourage right-sizing of vehicles for short trips and to establish safe routes for micromobility vehicles, the SBCCOG has championed the development of a Local Travel Network (LTN) for getting around in the South Bay. The proposed 243-mile LTN is a system of slow-speed streets to be shared by all forms of mobility including small, lowspeed vehicles (i.e., street-legal golf carts, e-bikes, pedal bikes, e-scooters, etc.), safely connecting neighborhoods with popular destinations. In addition, the LTN can help in reducing vehicular congestion while providing a network for alternative and active transportation.
On March 19, 2024, City Council authorized the SBCCOG to submit an application for regional funding from the Measure M Transportation System and Mobility Improvements Program for the South Bay Local Travel Network and Related Safety Enhancements in
CITY OF LOMITA
CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 8a
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *97
2 Lomita project. This application requested funding for the establishment of approximately
5.35 miles of LTN routes within the City of Lomita.
In September 2024, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) approved the city’s funding application allocating $6,651,895 for the design and construction of improvements within Lomita for the Local Travel Network and related traffic calming measures. On April 15, 2025, City Council subsequently adopted Resolution No. 2025-08 approving an agreement with Metro for the Measure M Transportation System and Mobility Improvements Program funding for the South Bay Local Travel Network & Related Safety Enhancements in Lomita project.
DISCUSSION
In Lomita, approximately 5.35 miles of network are proposed, primarily along Eshelman Avenue, Pennsylvania Avenue, 250th Street and 255th Street. Traffic calming measures along Eshelman Avenue at the intersections of Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 253rd Street are required in the network plans. Many of these traffic calming measures were identified in other studies, including the City’s 2023 Traffic Calming Toolkit and the 2025 Citywide School Loading Zone Study, to enhance safety even if the LTN were not being implemented.
Toole Design Group was commissioned to prepare concept designs for the LTN. These designs were developed based on prior City studies, public input, traffic engineering, and active transportation principles as described below.
The proposed LTN routes are prioritized by streets that provide safe connections between residential neighborhoods and key community destinations. Lomita’s proposed LTN routes are part of the greater South Bay Local Travel Network and connect to proposed LTN routes of neighboring cities.
Certain segments of the LTN require traffic calming measures to be suitable for the LTN.
The concept designs show the specific traffic calming elements that are proposed. The final design will also include pavement markings, striping, wayfinding and signage. Traffic calming measures are focused on Pennsylvania Avenue; Eshelman Avenue; the intersection of Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 253rd Street; and the intersection of 254th Street and Walnut Street.
Initial concept designs were developed by Toole Design Group based on recommendations from the Citywide School Loading Zone Study and the Traffic Calming Toolkit, and established traffic engineering and active transportation practices. These concepts were presented to the public at a Public Workshop held on January 24, 2026 at the Tom Rico Center at Lomita Park.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *98
3 Community Outreach and Input
The proposed routes were presented to the public for review and comment at the City’s Tree Lighting Ceremony on December 5, 2025. The SBCCOG hosted an informational table at the event, and in addition to discussing the proposed LTN routes, they raised awareness on micromobility vehicles. Attachment 1 shows the final draft of theLomita LTN routes.
A Public Workshop provided an opportunity for the public to review the proposed designs and discuss site-specific traffic safety concerns with City staff and the project design team. Additionally, a survey was posted on the project’s webpage for the public to provide comments on the LTN and traffic calming features from January 22 to February 9, 2026.
Public feedback from both the workshop and the survey was considered and incorporated when preparing the final concept designs. Notable revisions include the addition of a traffic circle at the intersection of Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 253rd Street to reduce vehicle speeds and discourage cut-through traffic. In addition, a new ADA ramp will be considered at the southwest corner of the intersection of Pennsylvania Avenue and Lomita Boulevard to increase pedestrian visibility to eastbound traffic.
The refined final concept designs were presented to the Public Safety and Traffic Commission on March 18, 2026. The Commission did not recommend any modifications to the proposed plans but did request that a post-implementation evaluation be conducted to assess the effectiveness of the LTN.
The final concept plans are provided in Attachment 2. These plans illustrate the proposed LTN routes and provide concept-level details of the proposed traffic calming measures included in this project.
Staff recommends that City Council approve the concept designs for Lomita’s Local Travel Network and authorize the City’s consultant to proceed to final design.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact resulting from this recommendation. The project design is fully funded through Metro’s Measure M Transportation System and Mobility Improvements Grant Program.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 5: City Infrastructure & Water Utility – Investing in reliable, sustainable infrastructure.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Adrian Fernandez, Community and Economic Development Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with Willdan Engineering for Building and Safety Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve a Professional Services Agreement between the City of Lomita and Willdan Engineering (Willdan) for Building and Safety Services in an amount not to exceed $602,940, inclusive of a 15 percent contingency amount for unexpected costs; Approve a one-time purchase of $46,170 for permitting software; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND
The County of Los Angeles has provided the City of Lomita with Building and Safety services since its incorporation in 1964. Building and safety services include plan check reviews of construction plans for consistency with building codes, permit issuance and building inspections to verify consistency with approved plans and building code. The County recently notified its contract cities that they are discontinuing providing building and safety services and will begin phasing out their services. Cities were given until July 1, 2026 to find alternatives to replace these County services.
DISCUSSION
On September 30, 2025, staff released a Request for Proposal (RFP) for full Building and Safety Services to replace the services provided by the Los Angeles County, Building and Safety Division to the City of Lomita. A total of eight proposals were received. Staff conducted a comprehensive selection and grading process and of the eight proposals, three firms were determined to be qualified candidates.
CITY OF LOMITA
CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 8b
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *117
2 Willdan Engineering Services
After a comprehensive examination period, staff selected Willdan as the most qualified and right fit for the City to provide building and safety services.
Willdan will provide Lomita with a full-time Permit Technician for the first few months of the initial transition. Permitting services will consist of on-site personnel in mornings with a virtual platform available at all times for customers to submit plans into plan check or obtain permits remotely. A part-time building inspector will be assigned to the City and he/she will have early counter hours at City Hall during the days assigned to the City.
Plan checking will be entirely offsite with optional virtual meetings to address plan check comments.
Willdan will subcontract with GeoCivix, a software company, to provide a permitting software. GeoCivix is the software Willdan currently uses for plan checking and inspections and will seamlessly connect with the new permitting module. The contract with Willdan includes a one-time initial set up cost of $22,410 and $23,760 annual subscription fee for the permitting software.
Enhanced Customer Service
The three most common counter complaints about the City’s current building and safety services are long plan check turnarounds, poor customer service provided by the County staff and high permit fees. Willdan is committed to complete plan check reviews in 10 business days, except for 15 business days for new commercial/industrial construction.
They also provide an expedited turnaround service for an additional 35 percent plan check fee should developers want this premium service. Ten business days for most plan checks is a substantial improvement over our current service. A permit technician at City Hall is also expected to improve customer service over existing services.
FISCAL IMPACT
Willdan’s total estimated yearly budget is $602,940, including an added 15 percent contingency and excluding permitting software cost. These costs are offset by the City’s current appropriation paid to the County of Los Angeles for building and safety services, effectively making the Agreement with Willdan financially net neutral. The permitting software will cost $46,170 for the first year and $23,760 per each following year. The budget appropriation will be included in the budget process for Fiscal Year 2026-27.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 6: High Performing Organization – Strengthening City services through innovation and excellence.

D. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its own terms services similar to those terminated.
13. INDEMNIFICATION.
A. In conformance with Civil Code section 2782.8, CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT'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 CONSULTANT’S legal counsel unacceptable, then CONSULTANT shall reimburse CITY its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation.
CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT as required by Section 18, 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 CONSULTANT pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.
14. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONSULTANT’s professional services.
CONSULTANT’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *123
15. INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT. CITY and CONSULTANT agree that CONSULTANT will act as an independent CONSULTANT and will have control of all work and the manner in which is it performed. CONSULTANT will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY.
CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.
16. AUDIT OF RECORDS.
A. CONSULTANT agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement. CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following final payment under this Agreement.
B. CONSULTANT will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Agreement.
17. CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONSULTANT will promptly implement any corrective measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement. CONSULTANT will be given a reasonable amount of time as determined by CITY to implement said corrective measures. Failure of CONSULTANT to implement required corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.
18. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.
A. CONSULTANT, at CONSULTANT’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance policies from a financially responsible insurance company or companies authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by the City:
1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. CONSULTANT shall require all subconsultants 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 CONSULTANT for CITY.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *124
2. General Liability Coverage. CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by CONSULTANT or by its employees, subconsultants, or subconsultants. 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-peroccurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.
B. Endorsements. Each general liability, and automobile liability policy shall be endorsed as follows. CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT, 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.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *125
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. CONSULTANT agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against CONSULTANT 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, CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.
E. CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12 above.
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 CONSULTANT (as the named insured) should CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONSULTANT as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement.
Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CONSULTANT’S behalf upon CONSULTANT’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 Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *126
amounts as damages in any action against CONSULTANT for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.
19. USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any CONSULTANTs while performing any portion of this Agreement.
Such approval must include approval of the proposed CONSULTANT and the terms of compensation.
20. FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONSULTANT’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 CONSULTANT, 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 CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-CONSULTANTs and agents.
21. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during CITY’S review of CONSULTANT’S report or plans. Should the CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT. 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 CONSULTANT under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.
22. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT’S services beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement shall cover payment for CONSULTANT’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.
23. 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:

DATE: November 4, 2020
SUBJECT:
280 East Sierra Madre Boulevard – Residential Landscape and Irrigation Installation Site Visit for Compliance with City’s Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance Chapter 15.60 Site Visit – November 4, 2020
Hello Jennifer,
I observed the landscape and irrigation installation for the above-mentioned address on November 4, 2020. Below are my comments:
1. Four of the irrigation remote-control valves installed do not meet compliance for backflow prevention. Relocate or re-install the valves to the proper height.
2. Missing rain shut-off device sensor for the irrigation controller. Typically, this unit is mounted on the eave to capture the rainfall.
3. See attached photographs.
If you or the applicant has any questions, please feel free to contact me at (562) 900-7151 or by email at [email protected].

14 Additional Plan Review Services Approach
To minimize the number of review cycles, Willdan enforces a streamlining process where Plans Examiners are accessible by phone and email. It is standard practice for our Plans Examiners to call the Design Professional(s) after the second (2nd) review if the project does not appear to be approved on next cycle. We strive to approve submittals by the third (3rd) review cycle.
Our Plans Examiner Team holds frequent meetings to collaborate and discuss Code updates and specific plan review challenges (i.e. code interpretations, design issues, Client interactions, etc.). These meetings are beneficial for solving problems, improving decision making, aligning plan check lists to comply with the Municipality’s requests, and holding the Plans Examiner Team accountable. The City of Lomita can expect to receive the same customized service to ensure satisfaction.
Global Jurisdiction List
We understand each Municipality requires a unique set of conditions. The Plans Examiner Team utilizes a Global Jurisdiction List that identifies each Client’s specific plan review requests, climate requirements, and other relevant information applicable to the Municipality. This internal document is regularly updated and readily accessible for the Plans Examiner Team to reference during review cycles.
Building Inspection Services
Willdan’s Inspectors are ICC Certified and qualified to perform residential, commercial, and industrial inspections ensuring construction complies with the City approved plans, building codes and standards, accessibility, life-safety, and supplemental documents.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Susan Kamada, Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Mid-Year Budget Review
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the FY 2025-26 Mid-Year Budget Amendments and Recommendations.
BACKGROUND
Staff develops the annual budget based upon estimated revenues and expenditures.
Upon completion of the annual financial statements and final audit at the end of the year, staff analyzes the impact of the closing information, current revenue and expenditure trends, and economic data, and recommends adjustments at the mid-year point to ensure a balance budget.
Revenues are adjusted based on this analysis and other sources to provide revised projections for the fiscal year. The City’s accounting staff continually monitors actual revenues received and compares them to the projected revenues approved in the annual budget. This information is then used to develop revised revenue projections to more accurately reflect the impacts of the current economic climate and any uncertainties and delays in receiving revenues.
DISCUSSION
In June 2025, the City Council adopted the FY2025-26 operating and capital improvement budgets. The adopted budget contains general fund expenditures and revenues of $14,990,643 and $14,990,643 respectively for Fiscal Year 2025-2026, reflecting a balanced budget in the general fund. This budget continues to provide the service levels that the Lomita community expects. In addition, the budget contains financial data for all

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Lina Hernandez, Assistant City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Discussion and Consideration of an Ordinance Amending the Lomita Municipal Code Relating to Fireworks Use and Approving the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department (LASD) proposal for the 2026 Illegal Fireworks Suppression Enforcement
RECOMMENDED ACTION
After conducting a public hearing, and after the City Attorney reads Ordinance by title only, introduce on first reading an ordinance amending and adding sections to the Lomita Municipal Code related to fireworks use, waive further reading, and schedule the ordinance for second reading and adoption at a subsequent City Council Meeting; and approve the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department (LASD) proposal for 2026 Illegal Fireworks Suppression Enforcement for $30,913.
BACKGROUND
The Lomita Municipal Code (LMC) codes makes it is unlawful for any person to manufacture, sell, store, display, use, discharge, explode, fire or set off any fireworks within the City of Lomita, including, but not limited to, “Safe and Sane” fireworks. The applicable provisions are set forth below:
Sec. 4-16.01. - Prohibited acts.
(a)It is unlawful for any person to manufacture, sell, store, display, use, discharge, explode, fire or set off any fireworks within the city including, but not limited to, safe and sane fireworks, as that term is defined in Health and Safety Code § 12529, and as may be amended from time to time hereafter. This prohibition does not apply to public displays of fireworks approved by the city manager pursuant to a special event permit granted under title III, chapter 6.5 of the Lomita Municipal Code.
CITY OF LOMITA
CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 9a
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *172
2 (b)For purposes of this chapter, fireworks shall mean any device containing chemical elements and chemical compounds capable of burning independently of the oxygen of the atmosphere and producing audible, visual, mechanical, or thermal effects which are useful as pyrotechnic devices or for entertainment as the term is defined in Health and Safety Code § 12511 and as may be amended from time to time hereafter. The term fireworks includes, without limitation, devices designated by the manufacturer as fireworks, torpedoes, skyrockets, roman candles, model rockets, rockets, Daygo bombs, sparklers, party poppers, paper caps, chasers, fountains, smoke sparks, aerial bombs and fireworks kits.
In 2021, the City Council directed staff to explore strategies to improve compliance with the City’s fireworks prohibitions leading up to the Fourth of July each year, due to the nuisance and adverse impacts fireworks exposure have on the health, safety, and welfare of Lomita residents.
In response, the City Council approved a targeted enforcement program operating before, during, and after the Fourth of July holiday. The program utilizes dedicated Los Angeles Sheriff Department (LASD) personnel on an overtime basis at hourly rates and has been approved annually by the City Council since its inception. It is designed to enhance public safety and enforcement efforts while increasing the visibility of LASD personnel during the holiday period. Dedicated enforcement teams patrol the City to address fireworksrelated violations and take appropriate enforcement action.
In addition, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-14 establishing enhanced administrative fines for fireworks violations up to $500 for a first offense, $750 for a second offense, and $1,000 for each additional offense within a one-year period. Violations may be prosecuted as misdemeanors pursuant to LMC Section 4-16.04, or enforced through administrative citation procedures under Chapter 1-5 of the Lomita Municipal Code.
DISCUSSION
While the City’s enforcement efforts have resulted in some citations in recent years, enforcement remains particularly challenging and resource-intensive, requiring significant staff time and law enforcement resources. In recent years, costs associated with these enforcement efforts have increased significantly while the number of citations issued remained relatively low. At the same time, complaints and concerns have continued at consistent levels, if not increased.
Higher Fines, Rewards, and Homeowner Responsibility
Citing individuals for fireworks violations is inherently difficult. Law enforcement officers must often directly witness the violation, suspects frequently flee or conceal themselves, and the high volume of complaints on holidays like the Fourth of July can overwhelm limited resources. Additionally, many complaints are submitted anonymously, and identifying the responsible individual, particularly in dense residential neighborhoods or crowded areas, can be challenging. Because violations are generally concentrated within Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *173
3 a short time period surrounding the Fourth of July holiday, increased fines and other enforcement tools may be necessary to provide a meaningful deterrent and curb conduct that can result in significant public harm.
Staff reviewed enforcement strategies implemented by other jurisdictions. The attached ordinance proposes three key amendments to strengthen Lomita’s enforcement framework.
1. Increased Administrative Fines – The ordinance would repeal Resolution 2021-14, and establish enhanced fines for $1,000 for all fireworks offenses.
2. Fireworks Reporting Reward Program – The ordinance would authorize the establishment of a reward program for confidential tips leading to the arrest and prosecution of individuals responsible for illegal fireworks activity. The program could be structured similarly to the City’s existing Graffiti Reward Program, offering a reward of $500.
3. Social Host Accountability Provision – The ordinance would add a Social Host provision holding property owners, tenants, or other responsible parties administratively accountable for illegal fireworks activity occurring on their premises, subject to appropriate legal safeguards and due process requirements.
In addition to these proposed ordinance amendments, staff is recommending continuation of the City’s fireworks suppression enforcement program. To address anticipated calls for service related to illegal fireworks, the City requested a proposal from LASD’s Lomita Station (attached to this report) to resume dedicated fireworks suppression services.
For a three-week enforcement period, June 21 - July 11, LASD would provide fireworks suppression services with two dedicated deputies on six-hour shifts at a cost not to exceed $30,913. The proposal also includes the option of utilizing an unmarked vehicle and plain-clothes undercover personnel to locate and identify violators.
Dash Cameras to Support Enforcement
To strengthen enforcement efforts beyond those implemented in previous years, City staff would support the operation during peak hours and handle the purchasing and installation of dash cams in the vehicles to be used for enforcement. Staff would also be responsible for reviewing the recorded footage after each shift to identify violators and document evidence. When violations are confirmed, city staff from the Community Safety Division would prepare and issue administrative citations to the responsible parties the following day. This approach with the addition of City staff support and dash camera technology is a model used by other cities and is intended to enhance documentation, improve accountability, and expand the City’s ability to identify violators. If approved by City Council, the program would dedicate two deputies to respond to complaints about fireworks discharge leading up to and beyond the Independence Day holiday.
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *174
4 Outreach and Education Efforts
The City will continue to educate the community through our regular public outreach mediums to discourage fireworks use. As a safe and lawful alternative, residents are encouraged to enjoy the City’s Founders Day fireworks show conducted by licensed professionals. Furthermore, Lomita Code Enforcement and the Los Angeles County Fire Department are conducting proactive inspections and abatement efforts to address dry vegetation and other fire hazards throughout the City in advance of and during the holiday period.

The cost for LASD Fireworks Suppression Enforcement is based on hourly rates for LASD personnel rather than the total annual cost for a full-time deputy. Total costs for the program is not to exceed $30,913.
The City will be supplying two dash cams for temporary installation on the Lomita Sheriff vehicles, at an average cost of $80-$130 each for a reliable front-facing unit, as well as allocating staff time to accompany the Deputies and review recorded footage. Sufficient funds are available within the City’s existing Public Safety budget. Any fines recovered by the City would offset these costs.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 1: Safety & Security - Keeping Lomita safe, prepared and resilient.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Lina Hernandez, Assistant City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Discussion and Consideration of an Ordinance Amending the City of Lomita Municipal Code to Revise Regulations for Illegal Dumping Violations
RECOMMENDED ACTION
After conducting a public hearing and after the City Attorney reads the Ordinance by title only, introduce on first reading an ordinance amending and adding sections to the Lomita Municipal Code related to illegal dumping, waive further reading, and schedule the ordinance for second reading and adoption at a subsequent City Council meeting.
BACKGROUND
The Lomita Municipal Code (LMC) codes prohibits any person from depositing, dumping, or discarding garbage, debris, or refuse, or other offensive materials on any public or private property, street, or roadway within the City of Lomita. The applicable provision is set forth below:
Sec. 4-1.08. - Illegal dumping.
No person shall place, deposit, throw or dump, or cause to be placed, deposited, thrown or dumped, any garbage, swill, cans, bottles, papers, ashes, dirt, sand, rock, cement, glass, metal, carcass of any dead animal, offal, refuse, plants, cuttings, or trash, or rubbish of any nature whatsoever, or any nauseous, offensive matter in or upon any public or private road, highway, street, alley, public way, or any public or private property of any kind whatsoever.
To assist residents and reduce illegal dumping, the City’s agreement with its solid waste hauler provides free bulky item collection services. Single family residential customers with curbside collection service are eligible to receive up to four free, on-call bulky item pickups per calendar year, with a maximum of six items per pickup that cannot be

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 9b

2 accommodated in the automated containers. Bulky items include, but are not limited to, refrigerators, stoves, washers, dryers, hot water heaters, electronics, mattresses, furniture, and bundled yard trimmings.
Multi-family customers are eligible for one free on-call pick-up for bulky items per calendar year, with up to six items per pickup, that cannot be accommodated in the automated containers. Bulky items are collected on the residents’ regular collection day and residents must contact Athens Services by phone or submit a request online at least one day prior to their scheduled collection day to arrange for pickup.
Current administrative citations for illegal dumping are issued in accordance with LMC § 1-5.04 (Administrative Citation Procedures), with fines of $100 for a first offense, $200 for a second offense, and $500 for each additional offense within a 12-month period.
Violations may be cited pursuant to LMC § 4-1.08.”
DISCUSSION
The City has experienced a noticeable increase in illegally dumped bulky items throughout the community. Mattresses, furniture, appliances, and other large household items are frequently left in parkways, alleys, and on both public and private property. This trend has resulted in visual blight, potential health and safety hazards, and increased demand on City resources.
Public Works crews have been directed by the City Manager to respond regularly to collect and dispose of these illegally dumped items. Currently, collected materials are placed in a designated bin that is serviced by Athens Services twice per week to keep pace with the volume of debris. Despite these efforts, the frequency and scale of illegal dumping continue to strain staff time and operational resources. As of the writing of this report, over 14 tons of illegally dumped items have been collected since January 26, 2026.
Code Enforcement staff have also been actively monitoring and compiling lists of illegal dumped items observed throughout the City. Athens Services has advised that most of the City reported items do not have corresponding work orders, indicating that some dumped materials remain unreported through the standard service channels until City staff intervene.
Enforcement presents additional challenges. Code Enforcement investigations are often time-consuming and difficult, as illegally dumped items rarely contain identifying information, and violations typically occur without witnesses. As a result, identifying and citing responsible parties can be problematic, limiting the effectiveness of existing penalties as a deterrent.
Beginning April 1, changes to the City’s street sweeping and solid waste collection schedule will result in Athens Services operating in the City five days per week, rather than three. While the increased presence of the City’s solid waste hauler may improve Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *182
3 service efficiency and response times, it is not anticipated to fully address the ongoing issue of illegal dumping.
Administrative Fines and Reward Program
It is recommended that administrative fines for illegal dumping violations be increased and that the City Council establish a reward program to incentivize tips leading to the identification and citation of individuals responsible for illegal dumping. Together, enhanced penalties and community reporting incentives may provide more effective tools to address the growing problem and reduce associated impacts on City resources.
Illegal dumping in California is a serious offense under Penal Code 374.3, with fines ranging from $250 to $10,000 depending on frequency and scale, and may include vehicle impoundment. Based on staff’s review of comparable agencies, to strengthen deterrence and promote compliance, the City may consider enhanced penalties and community reporting incentives to provide more effective tools to address the growing problem and reduce the associated impacts on City resources.
The attached ordinance proposes three key amendments to strengthen Lomita’s enforcement framework.
1. Increased Administrative Fines – The ordinance would establish fines of $1,000 for all illegal dumping related offenses.
2. Illegal Dumping Reporting Reward Program – The ordinance would authorize the establishment of a reward programs for tips leading to the arrest and prosecution of individuals responsible for illegal dumping. The program could be structured similarly to the City’s existing Graffiti Reward Program, offering a reward of $500.
Illegal dumping can be reported through the City’s app Lomita Connect.
3. Social Host Accountability Provision – The ordinance would add a Social Host provision holding property owners, tenants, business operators, or other persons in control of real property administratively accountable for illegal dumping occurring on property they own, lease, manage, or control, when they knowingly permit such activity or fail to take reasonable and timely corrective action after receiving notice of recurring violations. Repeated illegal dumping incidents may be deemed a public nuisance and subject to escalating administrative penalties and cost recovery measures. The provision would be subject to appropriate legal safeguards and due process requirements.
Public Education and Outreach
The City will continue to educate the community through our regular public outreach channels to discourage illegal dumping and promote responsible waste disposal practices. Outreach efforts will include social media campaigns, the City’s website and enewsletters, community events, and coordination with neighborhood groups to raise Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *183
4 awareness of reporting tools, available bulky item disposal services, and applicable penalties. These ongoing education and prevention efforts are intended to complement enhanced enforcement measures and foster community partnership in maintaining a clean and safe environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
Any fines recovered by the City for illegal dumping would offset staff time and operational resources required to address these incidents. Revenues generated from these fees are unknown.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 1: Safety & Security - Keeping Lomita safe, prepared and resilient.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Adrian Fernandez, Community and Economic Development Director
MEETING DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Amending the Master Fee Schedule to Include Application Fees for Oversized Vehicle Permits and Vacant Building/Property
Registration
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt Resolution 2026-13 amending the Master Fee Schedule to include application fees for City staff to process oversized vehicle permits, and vacant building and property registration.
BACKGROUND
At its meeting on October 21, 2025, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 876, establishing restrictions to oversized vehicles parked in the public right-of-way within the City. On December 2, 2025, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 877, establishing a new vacant building and abandoned property chapter. Both ordinances require an application process with the City. At the time the ordinances were adopted, the application fees to enforce compliance were not included.
DISCUSSION
The current Master Fee Schedule does not contain the fees to process applications for oversized vehicle permits or vacant building and property registration. Using the comprehensive user fee study developed by Willdan in 2021 and adjusted since then to account for cost of living adjustment, staff is able to establish the City employee’s hourly rate. The estimated hourly rate for a counter staff is $202.69, including benefits and overhead cost.
Staff evaluated the staff time to process both types of applications and resources required to process them. It is estimated that processing both types of applications will take
CITY OF LOMITA
CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 9c
Tuesday, March 24, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *191
2 approximately 1.5 hours of staff time to review the application, issue the permit and conduct a site visit. The site visit will help monitor the removal of the oversized vehicle upon the expiration of the permit and to monitor vacant buildings/properties. Staff recommends setting the application fee at $304 plus an additional 4 percent technology surcharge. The additional 4 percent technology surcharge is based on the cost for the application software and to manage electronic records and is already in the current Master Fee Schedule.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The adoption of this resolution is not subject to CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. The proposed update to the City Master Fee Schedule is not a project as defined in Section 15378 and will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Furthermore, if the adoption of the resolution is deemed to be a project then the activity is exempt from CEQA because 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).
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed application fees are expected to offset 100 percent of staff time to process the permits/applications. Revenue generated from these new fees are unknown at this time.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision.
