PREPARED BY: Susan Kamada, Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services Director
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: September 2026 Treasury and Investment Report

RECOMMENDATION
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 September 30, 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.

9.67% 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 September 30, 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.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Adrian Fernandez, Community and Economic Development Director
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Second Reading of Ordinance No. 901 Amending the Construction and Demolition Waste Management Chapter

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt Ordinance No. 901 and find the action to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act.

BACKGROUND
At its meeting on October 6, 2026, the City Council introduced on first reading and held a public hearing regarding the attached ordinance to update the diversion percent to 65, establish a self-haul permit process and deposit, revise reporting requirements and add penalties for non-compliance.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The City Council finds that adoption of the ordinance and 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 the actions will not result in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly, and therefore do not constitute a project as defined in Section 15378 and will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Alternatively, the adoption of the ordinance and resolution 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)].

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 7e
Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *42
2 FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with the draft ordinance and resolution. While $131 will not cover the total cost to the City Manager to consider an appeal to the waste management plan or self-hauler permit, these appeals are extremely rare (less than one per year) and staff suggests that the appeal fee not exceed the self-hauling permit fee.

The $1,000 deposit fee will be fully refunded back to the applicant after it is demonstrated that the project is fully in compliance with LMC Chapter 5. However, the deposit fee will be forfeited and will instead serve as a fine should the developer not comply.

OPTIONS

1. Adopt the attached ordinance.

2. Do not adopt the ordinance.

3. Provide staff with further direction.

ORDINANCE NO. 901

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER 5 (CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION

WASTE MANAGEMENT) OF TITLE V (SANITATION AND HEALTH) OF THE

LOMITA MUNICIPAL CODE TO ESTABLISH A CONSTRUCTION AND
DEMOLITION HAULING PERMIT AND A DEPOSIT FOR NON-CITYFRANCHISED WASTE HAULERS, AND FINDING THE ACTION IS NOT

SUBJECT TO THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. Recitals.

A. Pursuant to Lomita Municipal Code (LMC) Section 5-5, a waste management plan is required in order to remove construction and demolition waste from construction, remodeling, or demolition projects in the City of Lomita that meet the applicability requirements of LMC Section 5-5;
B. Permitted haulers are currently required to divert 50 percent of all construction and demolition waste generated by a project and to submit reports with the disposal amount and location to the City on a quarterly basis and at the completion of the project;
C. The proposed code amendment updates the City’s diversion requirement to 65 percent and establishes additional recordkeeping and reporting requirements for self-haulers;
D. City staff is frequently unable to obtain the required documentation from the self-haulers (other than the City-franchised waste haulers), and the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) encouraged staff to improve its current process; and
E. The proposed code update intends to address this matter by requiring a hauling permit and authorizing the collection of a deposit fee with the selfhaulers to be refunded upon completion of the reporting requirements. A separate City Council-adopted resolution is expected to establish the hauling permit appeal fee and hauling permit deposit amount.

Section 2. Incorporation. The recitals above are true and correct and are each incorporated by reference and adopted as findings by the City Council.

Section 3. CEQA. The City Council finds that adoption of this Ordinance does not constitute a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15378 because the Ordinance will not have the potential to result in either a direct physical change in the Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *44
Ordinance No. 901

Page 2 of 2 ends

environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and therefore does not constitute a project within the meaning of State CEQA Guidelines section 15378.

Exhibit A
CHAPTER 5. - CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE MANAGEMENT Sec. 5-5.01. - Purpose.

The purpose of this chapter is to set forth requirements for the diversion of construction and demolition debris that will ensure compliance with CALGreen and will allow the city to better document diversion efforts in compliance with AB 939.

Sec. 5-5.02. - Definitions.

City-franchised waste hauler means the company or individual that the City of Lomita has contracted exclusively to provide waste collection and disposal services within the city, pursuant to title V, chapter 3 of this Code.

City-initiated project means any construction, deconstruction, demolition, remodeling, repair, cleanup, or removal project performed on behalf of the city via contract with the city.

Construction and demolition (C&D) debris means building materials and solid waste from construction, deconstruction, remodeling, repair, cleanup, removal, or demolition operations that are not "hazardous waste" (as defined in Public Resources Code Section 40141), including, but not limited to:
(1) Discarded materials generally considered to be water insoluble including asphalt, brick, concrete, glass, gravel, gypsum, masonry, metal, pipe, rock, sand, slate, soil, steel, stone, wallboard or otherwise inert material. (2) Clean cardboard, construction paper, plastics (including, but not limited to, sheeting, molding, and shrink wrap), wood, and lighting and piping fixtures. (3) Rocks, soils, trees, brush, and other vegetative matter that normally results from land clearing, landscaping and development operations for a construction project.

Conversion rate means the rate set forth in the standardized conversion rate table approved by the community development director or designee for use in estimating the volume or weight of materials identified in a waste management plan.

Deconstruction means the careful and systematic dismantling of a structure in order to salvage materials for diversion.

Demolition means the decimating, razing, ruining, tearing down or wrecking of any facility, structure, pavement or building, whether in whole or in part, whether interior or exterior, and any removal of the same.

Dispose means the final deposition of construction and demolition or inert material to a Class III landfill.

Diversion requirement means the diversion via reuse or recycling of at least sixtyfive (65) percent of all construction and demolition debris generated by a project.

Divert means to use material for any purpose other than disposal in a landfill or transformation facility.

Project means any activity which requires an application for a building or demolition permit or any similar permit from the city.

Recycling means the process of collecting, sorting, cleansing, treating, and reconstituting materials for the purpose of using the altered form in the manufacture of a new product. Recycling does not include burning, incinerating, or thermally destroying solid waste.

Renovation means any change, addition, and/or modification in an existing structure.

Reuse means the use, in the same or similar form as it was produced, of a material which might otherwise be discarded.

Salvage means the controlled removal of C&D debris from a permitted building or demolition site for the purpose of recycling, reuse, or storage for later recycling or reuse.

Transformation facility means a facility whose principal function is to convert, combust, or otherwise process solid waste by incineration, pyrolysis, destructive distillation, gasification, or to chemically or biologically process solid waste for the purpose of volume reduction, synthetic fuel production, or energy recovery.

Transformation facilities do not include biomass conversion or composting facilities. (Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Section 18720) Waste management plan or WMP means a written plan for disposal, recycling and reuse of project C&D debris prepared and submitted pursuant to section 5-5.03(A) in a form prescribed by the WMP compliance official.

WMP compliance official or official means the Community and Economic Development Director or designee.

WMP compliance report means the written documentation of the actual C&D debris generated from the project, (1) indicating the weight and final destination of the debris, (2) listing whether the debris was disposed of, recycled or reused, and (3) including all required receipts, pursuant to section 5-5.05(F) in a form prescribed by the WMP compliance official. The Quarterly WMP compliance report shall indicate whether the applicant complied with the diversion requirement.

Sec. 5-5.03. - Applicability.
(A) Covered projects. Covered project shall mean any of the following construction, demolition, or renovation projects:

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *47

Page 3 of 10 ends

(1) Construction of new residential units, and additions or alterations of existing residential buildings where the addition or alteration increases the building's conditioned area, volume or size.
(2) Construction of nonresidential buildings and nonresidential additions where the addition or alteration increases the building's conditioned area, volume or size.
(3) All nonresidential interior renovation projects greater than seven hundred fifty (750) square feet requiring a building permit.
(4) All demolition projects requiring a demolition permit. (5) All city-initiated projects requiring a building permit.

Every covered project shall divert at least sixty-five (65) percent, measured by weight, of all construction or demolition waste generated by the covered project and comply with all of the provisions in this chapter. All phases of a project and all related projects taking place on single or adjoining parcels, as determined by the WMP compliance official, will be deemed a single, covered project. Compliance with the provisions of sections 5-5.04 and 5-5.05 shall be listed as a condition of approval on any building or demolition permit issued for a covered project. (B) Non-covered projects. Non-covered project shall mean any project that is not a covered project as defined in this section, including:
(1) Any construction, remodeling, or demolition project that does not generate recyclable materials or construction/demolition waste.
(2) Projects for which only a plumbing, electrical, or mechanical permit is required.
(3) Immediate or emergency construction, repair, or demolition work required to protect the public health or safety in an emergency, as defined in Section 21060.3 of the Public Resources Code, as it may be amended from time to time.

Non-covered projects are exempt from the requirements of this chapter. Each applicant for a non-covered project is encouraged to divert at least sixty-five (65) percent of all project-related C&D debris.
(C)Infeasible exemption.
(1) Application. If an application for a covered project experiences unique circumstances that the applicant believes make it infeasible to comply with the diversion requirement, the applicant may apply for an exemption at the time that the waste management plan (WMP) is submitted. An applicant applying for an exception must indicate on the WMP the specific circumstances that make it infeasible to comply with the diversion requirement.

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *48

Page 4 of 10 ends

(2) Meeting with the official. The official will review the information supplied by the applicant and may meet with the applicant to discuss possible ways of meeting the diversion requirement.
(3) Granting of exemption. The official will issue an infeasibility exemption if the following findings are made:
a. Circumstances exist which are unique to the project such that compliance with the provisions of this article would create an unusual burden on the project which is different than that of similarly situated projects; or b. That diversion of one or more substances involved in the project presents unique and burdensome obstacles and would create an especially onerous economic burden on the project unless diversion of that substance is reduced or eliminated.

If the official is able to make one or more of the above findings for a project, the official may excuse the project from compliance with this article, or determine the maximum feasible reduced diversion rate for each material and indicate this rate on the WMP submitted by the applicant. (4) Denial of exemption. If the official determines that it is possible for the applicant to meet the diversion requirement, the official will so inform the applicant in writing. The applicant will have thirty (30) days to resubmit a WMP. If the applicant fails to resubmit the WMP, or to meet the WMP requirements, the official will find for noncompliance in accordance with section 5-5.5(G).

Sec. 5-5.04. - Waste management plan.
(A) Submittal of waste management plan.
(1) Applicants for building or demolition permits involving any covered project shall complete and submit a waste management plan (WMP), on a WMP form approved by the city for this purpose as part of the application packet for the building or demolition permit.
a. Contracting with the city-franchised waste hauler. Applicants intending to contract with the city-franchised waste hauler for collection of all C&D debris shall not be required to provide further information within the WMP other than their intent to utilize the services of the franchise waste hauler. b. Self-haul. A licensed contractor performing work within the scope of the contractor's license, intending to remove C&D debris from the jobsite using equipment owned or leased by the contractor, and not through a solid waste enterprise, shall include the following information in the WMP:

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *49

Page 5 of 10 ends

1. The estimated volume or weight of project C&D debris, by materials type, that will be generated;

2. The maximum volume or weight of such materials that can feasibly be diverted via reuse or recycling;

3. The estimated volume or weight of C&D debris that will be landfilled;

4. The processing facility that the applicant proposes to use to receive that material; and

5. Any special or specific activities that the applicant will use to comply with the provisions of this chapter.
(2) Calculating volume and weight of debris. In estimating the volume or weight of materials identified in the WMP, the applicant shall use the standardized conversion rates approved by the city for this purpose. (3) Deconstruction. In preparing the WMP, applicants for building or demolition permits involving the removal of all or part of an existing structure shall consider deconstruction, to the maximum extent feasible, and shall make the materials generated thereby available for salvage prior to landfilling. (B) Waste management plan review.
(1) Approval. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code, no building, encroachment, or demolition permit shall be issued for any covered project unless and until the WMP compliance official has approved the WMP. The WMP compliance official shall only approve a WMP if he or she first determines that:
a. The WMP indicates the applicant's intent to use the city-franchised waste hauler; or
b. The WMP meets all of the following conditions:

1. The WMP provides all of the information set forth in section 5-

5.04(A)(1)(b); and

2. The WMP indicates that at least sixty-five (65) percent of C&D debris generated by the project will be diverted;
(2) Denial. If the WMP compliance official determines that the WMP does not meet the criteria established in section 5-5.04(A), he or she shall return the WMP to the applicant marked "denied," including a statement of reason for the denial and provide notification to the building and safety department, which shall then immediately stop processing the building or demolition permit application until a revised WMP has been submitted by the applicant and approved by the WMP compliance official.

Sec. 5-5.05. - Construction/demolition hauling permit.

A construction/demolition hauling permit may be issued pursuant to this section to construction/demolition haulers under contract with a property owner in the City and who does not contract with the city-franchised waste hauler for these services. (A) Permit required. No person or solid waste enterprise shall remove construction and demolition waste from a covered project within the City without first obtaining a construction/demolition hauling permit or a franchise under Section 5-5.4 and a City business license. Residents shall only use a permitted construction/demolition hauler or a city-franchised waste hauler, for removal of construction/demolition waste from any covered project within the City. (B) Application for construction/demolition hauling permit. An application for a permit shall be filed with the City and be accompanied by a nonrefundable application fee in an amount set by City Council resolution to reimburse the City for all expenses incurred by it in connection with granting the permit. Before issuance of the permit, the applicant shall deposit a refundable deposit fee in an amount set by City Council resolution to be refunded individual or entity who paid the original amount upon verification by the official, of compliance with the requirements of Section 5-5.05(F). The City shall record the name and address of the person or entity that paid the deposit fee. Any refund of the deposit fee shall be issued to that person or entity unless the City receives written authorization directing payment to another person or entity. The deposit fee shall not constitute payment of the application fee and may be withheld as provided in this section.

The application shall include, at a minimum, the following information:
(1) Name, address, and telephone number of the applicant and any other principals in the hauler's business.
(2) Name, address, and contact telephone number of the subject construction/demolition project, and a copy of the service agreement for collection services at the site.
(3) The type and amount of materials and waste material that the hauler is capable of transporting.
(4) The number of vehicles that the hauler utilizes.
(5) The name, address, and contact information for the waste disposal facilities where the hauler will take diverted material and where the hauler will take waste.
(6) Such other pertinent facts or information as the official may require, including but not limited to evidence of previous experience, and demonstration of reliable and safe equipment.
(C)In order to be legally qualified to obtain a construction/demolition hauler permit:

(D)Issuance of permits. The official may issue a limited construction/demolition hauler permit to collect and divert construction/demolition waste from a specific project site in the City, subject to such conditions as are necessary to protect the public health, safety and welfare and to assure that the permit is exercised for its circumscribed purposes. A permit shall not be transferred to another person or solid waste enterprise. Permits shall remain in effect for the amount of time specified on the permit, unless an extension is granted in writing by the official for the purpose of completing work on the specified project. An extension request shall be submitted in writing, no less than thirty days before expiration of the permit. The official may grant an extension subject to the application requirements set forth in Section 5-5.05(B). (E) Records. During the term of any covered project, the permitted hauler shall keep records of the amount of waste disposed and diverted in tonnage or in other measurements approved by the official that can be converted to tonnage. (F) Reporting.
(1) Every three (3) months from the date the permit is issued, the hauler shall submit, under penalty of perjury, documentation establishing compliance with the requirements of this section. The documentation shall consist of a completed quarterly “WMP compliance report," showing the weight of materials disposed and diverted, supported by evidence, which may include originals or photocopies of receipts and weight tickets/invoices or other records of measurement from recycling and/or landfill disposal companies.

Receipts and weight tickets may be required by the official to verify the amount of construction or demolition waste generated from the site that has been diverted. After reviewing a quarterly WMP compliance report, the official shall issue a written determination of compliance or noncompliance, stating whether the requirements have been satisfied and identifying any deficiencies.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Susan Kamada, Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services Director
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Year-End Budget Amendments

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the FY 25-26 Year-End Budget Amendments as proposed and direct staff to make necessary expenditure and revenue budget amendments to implement the recommendations.

BACKGROUND
The City is required to maintain a balanced annual budget and ensure its expenditures do not exceed revenues. Given the complexity of the municipal budget, which represented $34 million all-funds in FY 25-26, the City’s full financial picture comes into focus after all expenses and revenues are remitted in the months following the close of the Fiscal Year on June 30 of each year.

The Year-End Budget Closeout process involves a comprehensive review of City’s financial position by each of the City’s various funds, resulting in recommendations of necessary adjustments (transfers) based on actual revenues and expenditures throughout the fiscal year.

DISCUSSION
Staff completed the FY 25-26 Year-End review on October 8, 2026. After the recommended necessary transfers and adjustments, the General Fund is estimated to end the fiscal year with $17,123,904 in revenues and $16,946,357 in expenditures, representing a $177,547 surplus.

Item No. 7f
Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *56
2 Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Adopted Budget
In June 2024 the City Council adopted the FY 24-26 biennial (two-year) operating and capital improvement budgets. The City Council subsequently adopted Mid-Cycle adjustments in June 2025, with General Fund expenditures of $17,260,186 and revenues of $17,260,186, reflecting a balanced budget.

Attachment 1 is a summary of all-funds’ expenditures and revenues year-end amendments, which are described in more detail below.

Detailed Revenue Amendments
The City’s primary revenue sources include property, sales, and motor vehicle in lieu taxes. The other major revenue sources are development related revenues. Each of these sources has seen better than expected revenues over the fiscal year, and as a result staff amendments are necessary to reflect those revenues. Other special revenue funds have also seen better than anticipated revenues during the fiscal year that require an amendment.

Staff reviewed the status of the City’s major revenue sources to identify variances between budgeted and actual revenues. The resulting differences drive the recommendations for revenue budget amendments as proposed below:

Other Funds:

Fund 310 Capital Improvement $ 500,000
Fund 311 Street Improvement 841,985
Fund 312 Facilities Improvement (95,368)
Fund 610 Equipment Replacement 200,000
Fund 612 Sewer Replacement 150,000
Total Budget Amendments $ 1,596,617
Detailed Expenditure Amendments
Similarly, staff also reviewed the status of the City’s expenditures to identify potential variances between budgeted and actual expenditures. A review of the General Fund expenditures found several areas where actual year-end expenditures were less than anticipated in the adopted budget. Some special revenues funds have seen an increase in costs during the fiscal year that also require amendment. The resulting differences drive the recommendations for revenue budget amendments as proposed below:

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *57
3 FISCAL IMPACT
The adjustments identified will increase revenues by $1,096,617 and increase expenditures by $283,183. The amendments will result in a $177,547 surplus for FY 25-

26. 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.

MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Reaffirming Resolution No. 2026-50 Authorizing Procurement Under California Public Contract Government Code Section 22050(c)(1)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt Resolution No. 2026-52 to reaffirm the adoption of Resolution No. 2026-50 on October 6, 2026, authorizing the immediate emergency repair of the of the mixer at the Cypress Reservoir and finding an emergency exists requiring immediate action to repair; direct the City Clerk to confirm the same in the minutes of this City Council meeting, via Minute Order, reflecting this action.

BACKGROUND
The Cypress Water Treatment Plant and Reservoir are integral components of the City's water system. Water treated at the Cypress Treatment Plant is stored within the Cypress Reservoir prior to entering the City's distribution system. Proper mixing within the reservoir is important to maintain consistent water quality and disinfectant residual throughout the reservoir and distribution system.

On September 14, 2026, during routine daily water quality monitoring at the Cypress Treatment Plant, it was discovered that the in-tank mixer was no longer operating. The equipment has experienced deterioration from rust and corrosion over time and is no longer providing the circulation necessary for normal reservoir operations.

On October 6, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2026-50 and authorized the emergency repair of the mixer at the Cypress Reservoir without competitive solicitation of bids, finding that emergency conditions exist (Attachment 1). When procuring equipment under emergency conditions, California Public Contract Government Code Section 22050(c)(1) requires that the City Council reaffirm the

RESOLUTION NO. 2026-52

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA,

CALIFORNIA, DETERMINING A NEED TO CONTINUE ACTION
PURSUANT TO PUBLIC CONTRACT CODE SECTION 22050 FOR

REPAIR OF THE MIXER AT THE CYPRESS RESERVOIR

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LOMITA, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY FIND, ORDER AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Recitals.

A. On September 14, 2026, Lomita Treatment Plant Operators discovered that the in-tank reservoir mixer at the Cypress Treatment Plant was not churning the water due to deterioration and is no longer providing the circulation necessary for normal reservoir operations. The mixer distributes treatment chemicals, maintains consistent disinfectant residuals, reduces water stratification, and provides consistent water quality before water enters the distribution system.

B. Currently, water stored in the Cypress Reservoir is used for fire flow and requires daily disinfectant residual testing to ensure the water remains safe for distribution. Proper operation of the mixer is therefore a crucial component of the City’s water treatment process.

C. On October 6, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2026-50, pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 22050, by a four-fifths vote, that the immediate repair of the mixer at the Cypress Reservoir was necessary in order to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, that the emergency would not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids, and that the authorized action was necessary to respond to the emergency. Resolution No. 2026-50 authorized emergency repairs and associated work without competitive bidding and provided funding in the amount of $238,921.50.

D. Following adoption of Resolution No. 2026-50 on October 6, 2026, the City Manager executed a contract with Doane and Hartwig Water Systems, Inc. for the emergency repair of the Cypress Reservoir mixer; City staff has met with the contractor; and the work necessary to restore adequate reservoir mixing remains incomplete, requiring continuation of the action.

E. Section 22050 of the California Public Contract Code requires that after proceeding with an emergency project, the City Council shall review the emergency action at its next regularly scheduled meeting and at every regularly scheduled meeting thereafter until the emergency action is terminated, and determine by a four-fifths vote whether there is a need to continue the action.

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *65
Resolution No. 2026-52

Page 2 of 3 ends

Section 2. Findings. After considering the record, including the foregoing recitals, reports, information and recommendations from Staff, the City Council finds as follows:
a. The work necessary to remedy the emergency identified in Resolution No. 2026-50 remains incomplete. Until the necessary mixing function is restored, the conditions impairing reservoir operations described above continue to require immediate action to protect health, property, and essential public water service.
b. The City Council has considered whether the emergency action may be terminated as required by Public Contracts Code section 22050, and whether there remains a need to continue the emergency action at this time. c. The City Council finds that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids, and that continuing this action is necessary to respond to the emergency.

Section 3. Based on the foregoing findings, the City Council determines that the emergency action authorized by the City Council on October 6, 2026, by Resolution No. 2026-50 regarding the repair of the Cypress Reservoir Water Mixer shall be deemed to continue, that the action is necessary to respond to the emergency, and there is substantial evidence in the records that the continued emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation of bids.

Section 4. Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 22050, the City Manager and Director of Public Works shall report to the City Council, at the next regular meeting of the City Council and at every meeting thereafter until the action is terminated, information necessary to determine if there is a need to continue the action.

Section 5. Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 22050, the City Council shall, at the next regular meeting of the City Council and at every regularly scheduled meeting thereafter, consider and reaffirm by a four-fifths vote that there is a need to continue the action.

Section 6. This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.

Section 7. The City Clerk shall certify the passage and adoption of this resolution and enter it into the book of original resolutions.

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED, this 20th day of October 2026. [Signatures on the following page]

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Emma Kelley, Parks and Recreation Director Juan Ibarra, Senior Management Analyst
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Agreement with Kimley Horn and Associates for Community Outreach and Grant Services for the Lomita Sports and Community Center Project

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Kimley Horn and Associates for Outreach and Grant Services for the Lomita Sports and Community Center Project (formerly “Navy Fields”) for $199,938, plus a contingency amount of $20,000 for unexpected costs, for a total not to exceed $219,938; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.

BACKGROUND
The City of Lomita is pursuing acquisition of approximately six acres of U.S. Navy property at 26800 South Western Avenue, commonly known as the “Navy Ballfields”. The property has served as a youth baseball facility for more than 50 years, with Lomita Little League operating under a license agreement with the Navy. Acquisition would provide an opportunity to preserve recreational use and expand amenities for the community.

Following enactment of the National Defense Authorization Act in December 2024, the City began meeting with the Navy in February 2025 regarding a potential lease transfer.

A land survey followed in April 2025, and environmental studies began in August 2025.

In November 2025, discussions shifted from a lease transfer to conveyance of the property to the City. Subsequent efforts included a meeting with Navy representatives in Washington, D.C., in March 2026 and appraisal and acquisition negotiations in August 2026.

In April 2026, the City was awarded a $500,000 grant from the Los Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space District to support planning and design for the future

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 8a
Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *73
2 Lomita Sports and Community Center. Community input will guide the identification of recreational needs and development of concepts for the site, and will help identify community priorities, evaluate potential recreational uses, and establish a foundation for future project development and funding.

DISCUSSION
On July 21, 2026, the City published a Request for Proposals (RFP) or professional design services, including public outreach and conceptual design for the Lomita Sports and Community Center. The City received 10 proposals, and staff interviewed the highest ranked firms.

RFP Scope of Work
The RFP sought a highly qualified and experienced consultant to lead a comprehensive community outreach and input process for the Lomita Sports and Community Center.

Several requirements were highlighted in the RFP Scope of Work. Community outreach and engagement will include a minimum of three in-person bilingual community workshops, at least two pop-up outreach events, and a bilingual and online survey. The development of a conceptual design includes alternatives that reflect community priorities and City goals from which the City Council may consider. All these tasks are required to be completed within a 6-month timeline.

All City Commissions and the City Council will have opportunities to review and provide input throughout the process.

Evaluation and Selection Process
Staff presented the three highest ranked firms to the Parks and Recreation Commission at its meeting on September 22, 2026. During discussion of qualifications and best fit, the Commission emphasized the importance of community outreach and identified KimleyHorn and Associates as its preferred consultant. The Navy Fields Ad Hoc Committee, consisting of Mayor Segawa and Councilmember Waronek, subsequently reviewed the proposals on September 30, 2026. The Ad Hoc agreed with the recommendations by staff and the Commission that of Kimley-Horn was the most qualified and best fit.

Kimley-Horn and Associates
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize an Agreement with Kimley-Horn for community outreach and design input services based on their demonstrated approach to community engagement, relevant parks and recreation experience, and integrated project team. Their proposal combines traditional outreach with interactive digital tools, stakeholder partnerships, and opportunities for continued feedback during concept development. Planners, engineers, and landscape architects would participate directly in outreach alongside the community engagement team, helping translate public input into feasible conceptual alternatives. Kimley-Horn has also worked with the City on its Traffic Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *74
3 Calming Toolkit and conducted a peer review of the design of the Local Travel Network design.

The proposed engagement and conceptual design process is anticipated to take approximately six months. Public input will identify recreational needs and priorities and inform proposed site uses, amenities and conceptual alternatives.

Addendum for Grant Application Services
During the evaluation and selection process, staff was made aware of park development grant funds made available through State Proposition 4 (Prop 4). On September 29, staff met with representatives from the California Department of Parks and Recreation to discuss the Statewide Park Development and Community Revitalization Program (SPP) program. The SPP is a competitive grant program that supports new parks and recreational opportunities in underserved communities throughout California. The current funding cycle provides approximately $188.5 million statewide, with grant requests ranging from $200,000 to $8.5 million. Eligible projects include the development of new parks and the expansion or renovation of existing parks. Applications are due December 17, 2026.

During that meeting, staff reviewed program requirements, eligibility criteria, available funding, application timelines, and the necessary steps to submit a competitive application. Staff was advised that the applications are due on December 17, 2026 and that no future grant cycle has been announced. Given the uncertainty of future funding, it is in the City’s interest to pursue this opportunity expeditiously.

To meet the application deadline of December 17, 2026 and maximize the City’s competitiveness, the City must complete an accelerated community engagement and project development process. To earn full points under the grant’s meeting criteria, this process should include at least five community engagement meetings, including at least two held in the evening or on weekends, to identify local park and recreation needs and priorities.

Staff requested an expanded proposal from Kimley Horn, attached to this staff report, to include grant application preparation and submission, development of project concept, and community outreach, including five community engagement meetings before the grant deadline to maximize competitiveness under the grant’s meeting criteria. Additional outreach activities would continue into 2027 to further inform the projects conceptual design.

Awarding the agreement would advance the community engagement and concept development components of Phase II. The resulting concepts will guide subsequent detailed planning and design and help the City identify future funding needs.

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *75
4 FISCAL IMPACT
The agreement with Kimley-Horn is for an amount not to exceed $219,938, which includes $20,000 in contingency funds for unexpected costs. Virtually all costs associated with this phase are funded through the Los Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space District (RPOSD) grant. The additional grant application services added will cost $19,929 and is not eligible for reimbursement through the RPOSD grant, which will be appropriated from the General Fund Available Balance.

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. 4: Quality of Life & Livability – Creating vibrant spaces and services for all ages and Strategic Outcome No. 5: City Infrastructure & Water Utility – Investing in reliable, sustainable infrastructure.

B. CONSULTANT will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *80

Agreement.

8. 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.

9. 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:

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.

2. General Liability Coverage. CONSULTANT shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than two million dollars ($2,000,000) 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 two million dollars ($2,000,000) 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, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *81

Page 6 of 11 ends

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, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *82

Page 7 of 11 ends

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.

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *83

Page 8 of 11 ends

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.

City of Lomita
24300 Narbonne Avenue
Lomita, CA 90717
Re: Request for Proposals, Professional Design Services for the Lomita Sports and Community Center, Phase 1 Dear Ms. Hernandez and Selection Committee,
The City of Lomita (City) has a rare opportunity to transform the Navy Fields property into a recreational destination that expands access to parks, recreation, and community gathering spaces for residents while providing lasting benefits for the broader South Bay region. Success will require balancing community aspirations with site constraints, operational realities, and funding considerations while maintaining momentum toward implementation. Kimley-Horn is uniquely qualified to help the City achieve that goal.

Our team brings the specific combination of sports-facility and community center design expertise, Southern California public agency relationships, and structured bilingual outreach capability that Phase 1 requires. Three qualities in particular set our team apart:

The Right Team for Lomita. Kimley-Horn has assembled a team with the local knowledge, technical expertise, and experience leading community-driven planning efforts for public agencies needed to successfully guide this project. Laura Forinash, PE, TE, will serve as Project Manager, bringing extensive experience supporting South Bay agencies through staff augmentation and project delivery roles, along with firsthand experience working with the City of Lomita and its stakeholders. She is supported by Maya Bouchet, AICP, who will lead community outreach and stakeholder engagement efforts; Barsin Govargez, PE and Michael Ledbetter, PLA, who will deliver multi-use parks and athletic facilities expertise; and Michael Madsen , PLA, CLIA, who will provide senior-level design oversight and quality assurance throughout the project.

An Intentional, Measure A-Aligned Public Engagement Process. Our bilingual outreach strategy is intentionally designed to satisfy Measure A objectives while creating meaningful opportunities for residents, stakeholders, and regional users to shape the future of the site. Through workshops, pop-up events, stakeholder interviews, community partnerships, and the PublicCoordinate engagement platform, we will broaden participation, lower barriers to engagement, and create a transparent process that clearly demonstrates how community input influences project decisions.

A Vision Positioned for Phase 2. Phase 1 is about more than identifying community priorities. It is about developing a realistic roadmap for the future of the site. Our integrated approach brings outreach, design, parking considerations, cost estimating, and operational planning together from the outset. By continuously testing ideas against site constraints, maintenance needs, funding realities, and long-term operational considerations, we will help the City develop a preferred concept that is community-supported, finanically realistic, and positioned to maintain momentum toward Phase 2 design, environmental review, and implementation in support of the City’s grant-funded project schedule.

We appreciate the City’s investment in this project and welcome the opportunity to support Lomita in creating a facility the community will value for generations. If you have questions regarding this proposal, please contact Laura Forinash, PE, TE at 562-549-2186 or [email protected].

Sincerely,
Laura Forinash, PE, TE Michael Madsen, PLA, CLIA

Project Understanding
The project site, located at 26800 S. Western Avenue, sits on approximately six acres that has historically been known as the Navy Fields property and has long served as a recreational asset for Lomita. Today, however, the property’s three existing ballfields primarily serve a single organized user group. As the City moves to acquire the site from the U.S. Navy, this project presents a transformative opportunity to establish an expanded recreational sports complex capable of serving residents of different ages, abilities, and interests.

As one of the most park-poor cities in Los Angeles County, Lomita has limited public recreational land, making this project a significant opportunity to boost the City’s roster of public recreation offerings.

Additionally, the existing site’s location can provide a broader regional benefit consistent with Measure A objectives for Lomita’s neighbors in nearby Torrance, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estates and LA County. Future outcomes for this project include preserving successful uses, introducing new recreational uses and community amenities, all while expanding access and creating a destination sports complex for the City of Lomita! The design challenge now is how to make the most of those six acres? There is a finite amount of square footage and every decision will involve tradeoffs between community desires for more program, parking requirements, gathering spaces and amenities and the infrastructure to support it all. We must help the community understand the options, and find consensus through shared priorities. A successful process must consider all of this while keeping an eye on initial funding and long-term operational costs, giving the City clear guide posts for decision-making, now and in the future.

Kimley-Horn’s role will be to drive that successful process while bringing creativity and discipline to the day-to-day execution of the City’s vision. We will work closely with the City’s Design Team and project stakeholders to gather ideas, generate solutions, and test their feasibility against the site’s capacity, maintenance, and public priorities. The result will be a community-driven vision, brought to life by our talented designers that the City staff can confidently present to the City Council and advance into Phase 2.

We envision an integrated approach that will bring community outreach, design and visualization, and cost analysis together in a continuous process. One task should not occur separately from another and each milestone informs the next stage of the process. Our design team will be a part of the community workshops to hear first-hand from the residents and
stakeholders. Design progress will keep community input top of mind, and each outreach activity will help shape the next round of design that happen afterwards. We want the City and the community to see the progression from one design iteration to the next and understand the key decisions being made that impact the different outcomes being presented.

TASK 1 – Frame the Opportunity
GOAL: Establish the project’s public identity, build community awareness of the process about to take place, and develop a clear understanding of community and stakeholder priorities.

First priority is to establish the project branding and begin building the website. The project branding is critical and carries through the entire community engagement process, from the first pop-up event to the final community workshop. It is the graphic and emotional hook that will help draw people in and help establish that we’re all working towards the same goal.

That vision comes to life on the website, which serves as a central hub for all aspects of the project. The site will include general information and FAQs, an event schedule, and Kimley-Horn’s PublicCoordinate platform.

Below and on the following page, we present a series of concept graphics for the Lomita Sports and Community Center website.

PublicCoordinate uses bilingual interactive maps and surveys to collect input from residents, stakeholders, and regional users, helping the design team understand community wants and needs and get feedback in real time as new design alternatives are developed.

Public Outreach in Monterey Park
Stakeholder Outreach - We will conduct focused stakeholder outreach to supplement the broader community process. Discussions with local organizations and other community groups will provide deeper insight into the region’s recreational habits and clarify how this park can begin to solve for lacking programs and operational concerns to take advantage of the opportunities and create meaningful community engagement.

Community Outreach will be focused on lowering barriers to participation and satisfying the regional and inclusive intent of Measure A. Special attention will be given to youth, vulnerable populations, and limited-English-proficiency attendees. Kimley-Horn has assumed up to two (2) stakeholder meetings.

Kimley-Horn has assumed that the City will coordinate the event location, duration, timing, and scheduling with stakeholders.

Engagement Documentation – At every Task 1 outreach event, the team will collect photo release forms and prepare a brief summary documenting attendance, key themes, and photographs, along with a running summary of survey results. These summaries will support the grant application.

Grant Concept – Using input from the October outreach events and stakeholder meetings, Kimley-Horn will develop one high-level, color-rendered grant concept that test-fits program capacity and site organization and defines the project’s recreation features. As part of concept development, Kimley-Horn will prepare a planning-level construction cost estimate and evaluate the concept against the $8.5 million maximum grant request. Based on this evaluation, Kimley-Horn will work with the City to either define a project that can be completed within the $8.5 million grant limit or develop a phased approach that clearly identifies the improvements the grant would fund and distinguishes them from potential future improvements. • Concept package:
One color-rendered site plan illustrating program and amenity information Conceptual three-dimensional visualizations (up to three views) Precedent images of proposed amenities
Planning-level construction cost estimate and potential phasing strategy aligned with the $8.5 million maximum grant request • Concept iterations: Up to four (4) concept iterations are included. These iterations are anticipated to address:
(1) City staff review
(2) City Council direction
(3) Community feedback received during the Weekend Community Workshop (4) Final revisions needed to support the grant application At this early stage, Kimley-Horn intends to use AI-enabled workflows, directed by the design team, to rapidly generate conceptual visualizations and enable the team to complete the concept in time for the grant application. The images will be clearly identified as illustrative only and are intended to communicate potential character, scale, and experiential qualities. The design team will remain responsible for the underlying ideas, design direction, and selection of presentation imagery. This accelerated approach allows the City and community to explore a broader range of possibilities within the grant schedule before investing significant time and resources in detailed design.

City Council Working Session – The City Council Working Session would occur during Task 1 because development of the grant concept is being advanced to support the grant application.

This allows the City Council to review and provide direction on the proposed grant concept before it is first shared publicly at the State of the City on November 12. Input from the working session will be incorporated into the grant concept presented during the November and December outreach events.

Commission Meeting #1 (early December 2026) – Task 1 concludes with Commission Meeting #1 in early December, followed by grant submittal by December 17. At Commission Meeting #1, our team will present the following:
• Executive summary of outreach and participation
• Community priorities and recurring themes

TASK 2 – Imagine the Opportunity
GOALS: First, establish realistic expectations for the park based on the site’s physical limitations and the public’s desired amenities; and second, to explore a range of design solutions, from low to high impact, while developing initial project costs.

During Task 2, we will work with the City’s Project Team to establish planning level cost targets that serve as practical benchmarks based on potential funding capacity. With that framework established, we will work with the City’s Project Team to determine the strategies each of the three concept designs will explore. Our goal is to produce three genuinely distinct concepts, not variations on a single plan differentiated only by cost. Each concept will stand on its own as a viable solution, testing a meaningful range of outcomes grounded in community and stakeholder priorities, exploring different approaches to site organization, and including a ROM cost estimate.

Grant Concept Variations
Kimley-Horn will prepare three high-level, color-rendered variations that test different layouts, amenity configurations, field surfacing, parking, phasing, and programming. The variations will be reviewed with City staff during a design working session held as part of a regularly scheduled progress meeting. Based on City staff direction, Kimley-Horn will prepare a complete design package and planning-level cost estimate for each variation. Grant Concept Variation Packages (3 Total) – Each will include:
• A color-rendered site plan that demonstrates:
Program and amenity information
Vehicular and pedestrian circulation
• Parking count based on planning assumptions agreed to by the City and project team • Summary statement of opportunities, limitations, and tradeoffs • Conceptual three-dimensional visualizations (maximum of three views) • Planning-level cost estimate • Concept Level Design Narrative
Describes design intent, program, and major design features Summary of how the concept responds to community input • Concept Level Diagram
Bubble Diagram outlining circulation, access, program elements Demonstrates relationship of major features and hieracrchy of spaces AI-Enabled Visualizations
Like Task 1, Kimley-Horn will continue to use AI-enabled workflows, directed by the design team, to efficiently generate illustrative visualizations for each variation. The design team will remain responsible for the concepts, design direction, and selection of presentation imagery. Once a preferred concept is selected, Task 3 will include development of the complete park site plan in AutoCAD and creation of a three-dimensional visualization model in SketchUp or Rhino.

CITY OF LOMITA • SPORTS AND COMMUNITY CENTER PHASE 1
Finding the Right Parking Balance
Parking will be one of the project’s most impactful planning challenges. Most agencies do not have fixed parking requirements for sports fields and recreation areas, which can make determining the appropriate amount of parking to provide a serious challenge.

Too much parking can consume the limited amount of land available and too little parking could create operational problems for neighbors and park users. We will need to consider typical weekday and weekend use, peak hours, overlapping league schedules and potential for tournament weekends and special events.

The three concepts will test parking counts along with the park program being proposed by each option using planning level assumptions agreed to by the City’s Project Team. We may determine that a more detailed parking study is warranted prior to the next phase to fully understand all the activity to determine if the City should be looking for potential overflow sites or shared/offsite parking that could be utilized for larger events so the size of the day-to-day lot could be the most efficient.

City Council Working Session – Prior to presenting the grant concept alternatives to the public, Kimley-Horn will facilitate a working session with City Council to review the three draft alternatives, planning-level cost estimates, key tradeoffs, and implementation considerations. This meeting will provide Council an opportunity to ask questions, confirm the alternatives are appropriate for public review, and help ensure the information presented to the community reflects options the City is comfortable advancing through the engagement process.

Pop-Up Event #5 – The fifth pop-up event will be the community’s opportunity to review and provide feedback on three grant concept variations. The event will reach residents who may not attend a traditional meeting and promote Workshop #2.

Workshop #2 – The second community workshop will showcase the creative vision behind each of the three concepts through compelling 3D visualizations. Our goal is to close the feedback loop by clearly demonstrating:

1. We heard them

2. How the refined concept reflected what we heard

3. Identify program elements that did not make it into the final concept and

4. Why the particular trade-offs that were selected make sense for the community as a whole even if it leaves a certain stakeholder group with less than they hoped for.

Commission Meeting #2 – Task 2 concludes at Commission Meeting #2, where our team will present the following updates:

Updated Executive Summary of Outreach and Participation with additional inputs received from Pop-Up and Workshop #2
Present the Three Concept Designs and 3D Visualizations Present the refined ROM
Estimates for each concept
Determine Preferred
concept to advance
Local Knowledge Matters
We understand the unique parking constraints surrounding the site, including the absence of on-street parking along Caltrans-owned Western Avenue, limited parking availability on portions of Palos Verdes Drive North, and the permitonly parking program serving the nearby Peninsula Verdes neighborhood. Accommodating park users while preventing overflow parking impacts to the Harbor Hills community will be a critical consideration throughout planning and design. 12 Ai Rendering

CITY OF LOMITA • SPORTS AND COMMUNITY CENTER PHASE 1
TASK 3 – Refining the Opportunity
GOAL: Refine the preferred concept into an implementable, consensus-backed plan.

Task 3 begins with identifying a preferred concept based on the three alternatives, community feedback received throughout the process, and the planning-level cost estimates. In our experience, the preferred concept is rarely one of the alternatives presented exactly as shown. Rather, it is typically a hybrid that combines the strongest organizing framework from one concept with the most supported features and amenities from the others. This phase is where the planning process comes together, balancing community priorities, site constraints, parking considerations, operational needs, and project costs to create a single, implementable vision for the site.

Our design team will then proceed to develop the preferred concept more completely in AutoCAD and start to build out the 3D Model (in Sketchup or RhinoMax). As the preferred concept develops we will consider the following criteria:
• Programming, Flexibility, Multi-Use scenarios and
Neighborhood compatibility
• Community Center, Special Events, Concessions,
Restrooms, and Storage
• Accessibility, Inclusion, and Universal Design
• CPTED Principles including Safety, visibility,
and nighttime use
• User comfort, tree canopy and shade
(Combatting heat island effect)
The preferred concept design package is anticipated to include:

Cost and Funding Strategy
Many of the technical studies needed for final design and construction documents will not be available during this initial design phase but we will lean on our decades of experience building sports parks to develop key assumptions so that reasonable allowances can be included in the planning and estimating process. This refined estimate will distinguish between construction costs, construction allowances, design contingency, escalation, GC profits and soft costs to develop a full picture of what lies ahead for the City.

Workshop #3 – The third community workshop will present the refined site plan of the preferred concept, 3D visualizations and supporting exhibits to paint the completed picture for the community and stakeholders. Our goal is to demonstrate to the community how Workshop #2 influenced the final design of the preferred concept and address any remaining concerns.

Commission Meeting #3 & City Council Meeting – Task 3 concludes with Commission Meeting #3, followed up with presentation to the City Council. We have included time in our schedule to continue to refine the documentation between Workshop #3, Commission meeting #3 and the City Council Presentation. At these final two public presentations our team will present the following updates:
• Updated Executive Summary of Outreach and Participation with additional inputs received from Workshop #3
• Present the Preferred Concept Design, 3D Visualizations, and Design Package • Present the final Cost Estimate based on the preferred concept and assumptions

CITY OF LOMITA • SPORTS AND COMMUNITY CENTER PHASE 1
At the end of this process the City will have the following:

A broadly supported, community-informed preferred concept design to proceed with into Phase 2. This includes a visually striking design package suitable for public communications and funding discussions Documented outreach findings and backup documentation consistent with Measure A requirements A refined planning-level cost estimate and Implementation Framework A clear set of assumptions and “next steps” to carry out in the form of technical studies and reports to support the City’s Project Team as they pursue Phase 2
Future Considerations
Our experience tells us that planning efforts of this nature often uncover opportunities and questions that warrant additional study beyond the scope of Phase 1. One example may be a comprehensive parking demand analysis to better understand day-to-day operations, special events, and long-term parking needs. Another study we are increasingly helping agencies undertake is a Financial and Operational Analysis, which evaluates how programming, partnerships, and event opportunities can support the ongoing operation and maintenance of park facilities.

Traditionally, parks have been viewed primarily as long-term capital and operating obligations. Increasingly, however, communities are exploring ways to activate these spaces through programming and partnerships that generate revenue, offset operating costs, and increase community value. Identifying these opportunities early in the planning process allows the City to make informed decisions about future investments, prioritize follow-on studies, and develop a clearer roadmap for both capital improvements and long-term operations.

Our Measure of Success
Success is not simply producing an eye-catching site plan and compelling visualizations that showcase exciting new amenities, although we will certainly do that. Success is giving the City of Lomita and its residents a vision that balances creativity with practicality, community priorities with site constraints, and project aspirations with long-term affordability and maintainability.

We have intentionally structured this process to help the City avoid advancing a concept that proves difficult to fund, construct, or maintain. Through iterative testing, community engagement, parking analysis, and cost estimating, we seek to identify challenges early, reducing the likelihood of significant value engineering later that can compromise project goals and erode community trust. By entrusting Kimley-Horn with this process, the City will benefit from a team that pairs creative thinking with disciplined analysis. The result will be a community-supported vision, a clear understanding of cost implications, and a practical path forward from planning to construction.

TASK 4 – Grant Application Services
GOAL: Prepare a complete, competitive Statewide Park Program Round 5 application.

Kimley-Horn will lead preparation of the complete grant application, coordinate required inputs with the City, and provide the application package to the City for submittal. Kimley-Horn’s grant preparation services will include the following:

Assumptions:
The City will schedule the required City Council meeting and prepare the staff report and authorizing resolution before the application deadline. The City will provide required signatures on all application forms. The City will provide documentation demonstrating control of the project site. The City will confirm and provide the project’s CEQA status. The City will obtain and provide letters of support from project partners. The City will submit the application.
Project management and coordination have been increased to account for grant application management and coordination of the additional outreach events with City staff and event organizers on the accelerated grant schedule.
The City will have full ownership of the site by the grant submittal date. The grant request is assumed to be up to $8.5 million. Planning-level cost estimates will be used to determine whether the project can be delivered within the maximum grant amount or should be presented as a phased project that clearly identifies the improvements funded by the grant and those reserved for a future phase. No local match or additional committed funding is assumed unless identified by the City.
The grant concept developed in Task 1 defines the project’s recreation features. Task 2 variations and the Task 3 preferred concept will remain consistent with those features. The City will provide event access, booth space, and coordination with event organizers, and will distribute promotional content through its website, City app, social media, and water bill inserts (printing and mailing by the City).
Other direct costs have been increased to cover printed materials, display boards, and supplies for the six additional pop-up events and the second day of the Weekend Community Workshop.
The City is the grant applicant and will provide required administrative attachments, signatures, and any governing body resolution. Grant award is not guaranteed.
The schedule assumes the City will confirm outreach event dates and locations, schedule the City Council Working Session before the State of the City, and provide consolidated reviews, decisions, signatures, and administrative attachments by mutually agreed deadlines. Delays in City-provided information or approvals may affect the grant application schedule. 16 Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *105

Firm Experience
Kimley-Horn is a national planning, engineering, and design firm with deep roots in Southern California’s public-sector landscape. We have delivered civic and recreational facility projects, active transportation plans, site-development programs, and bilingual community engagement processes for municipalities, school districts, and regional agencies across Los Angeles County and the broader Southern California region. Our work on sports complexes, park renovations, educational athletic facilities, and community centers reflects a consistent commitment to community-centered design, schedule discipline, and collaborative public-agency delivery.

The team we have assembled for the City of Lomita’s Phase 1 Sports and Community Center engagement reflects the disciplines this project demands: landscape architecture for site concept development and visual communication, civil engineering for grading, drainage, access, utilities, and preliminary cost development, and bilingual public engagement for community workshops, pop-up outreach, survey administration, and stakeholder facilitation. These disciplines work together under a unified project management structure, with the Project Manager serving as the City’s single point of contact and the Principal-in-Charge providing executive-level support and contract authority throughout the engagement.

Our proposed Civil Lead, Barsin BetGovargez, PE, serves as the project’s Engineer of Record. With more than 23 years of civil engineering experience on education, civic, commercial, and city capital improvement projects throughout Southern California, Barsin brings the local knowledge, technical depth, and regulatory familiarity to deliver constructable, cost-informed civil work products appropriate to the Lomita Sports and Community Center’s site and program.

Our team’s bilingual outreach capability is a direct match for this project’s Measure A compliance requirements and communityinclusion goals. Our Public Engagement Lead, Maya Bouchet, AICP, has led community outreach programs throughout Southern California, coordinating in-person workshops, stakeholder engagement, and public comment processes consistent with the inclusive participation standards the City of Lomita must meet.

Across our team, every key personnel member brings at least five years of direct project experience in their respective discipline, and several bring more than two decades of practice in Southern California public-sector work. We have structured this team to operate as a cohesive, integrated unit from kickoff through final City Council presentation, with clear lines of authority and a shared commitment to delivering a community process and concept package that positions the Lomita Sports and Community Center for successful longterm development.

The Northwood Community Park Renovation Project includes a comprehensive redesign and enhancement of the iconic “Castle Park” playground from the 1980’s and its surrounding amenities. Covering approximately 0.60 acres, the renovation aims to modernize the play environment while preserving the beloved castle theme that has long defined this community landmark. Key improvements include new playground surfacing, age-appropriate play equipment, shade structures, site furnishings, and the addition of six to eight outdoor exercise stations designed to promote wellness and encourage multi-generational recreation. The project also prioritizes critical accessibility upgrades by addressing ADA pathway deficiencies throughout the park and enhancing pedestrian connectivity. The creative design process involved developing conceptual alternatives, engaging with the community and stakeholders, and preparing detailed construction documents at 35%, 60%, 80%, and 100% milestones. Civil engineering support provided solutions for grading, drainage, erosion control, and stormwater management, featuring a subsurface drainage system beneath the play area. Additional project components include topographic surveying and mapping, plan review coordination, permitting, and construction administration. The project team actively participated in community meetings, City Council presentations, and will conduct construction phase site visits to ensure the vision is fully realized.

E. QUALITY CONTROL PLAN
The quality control/quality assurance (QC/QA) plan Kimley-Horn will implement for this project follows the same proven framework we use firmwide to maintain consistency, accountability, and quality for our municipal clients. For the Lomita Sports and Community Center Phase 1 assignment, the process will be tailored to the project’s critical interfaces among bilingual community outreach, stakeholder engagement, conceptual alternatives development, preliminary cost analysis, Measure A compliance documentation, and City Council presentations. The plan includes the following six key elements:

Structure: Each QC/QA plan includes a project manager responsible for contract delivery, technical managers responsible for discipline development, and a QC/QA manager responsible for verifying implementation of the plan. Project Manager Laura Forinash, PE, TE will remain accountable for overall quality, City coordination, day-to-day interdisciplinary integration, tracking of decisions and comment resolution, and final direction on all work products. Each discipline lead will remain responsible for the technical accuracy and completeness of their own work, while Michael Madsen, PLA, CLIA will serve as the independent QC/QA Manager.

Procedures: Outreach materials, engagement summaries, concept drawings, cost estimates, and report deliverables will be checked by qualified staff other than the original preparer. Our color-coded comment process includes an initial check, documented resolution by the preparer, review of completed revisions, and back-checking before comments are closed. Reviews will address bilingual content accuracy, community engagement methodology, conceptual design completeness, cost-implication narrative, Measure A compliance requirements, and presentation materials.

Interdisciplinary Reviews: Laura and the discipline leads will conduct coordination reviews throughout the project and before each milestone submittal. These reviews will focus on project-specific interfaces, including alignment between community input and conceptual alternatives, consistency of cost implications across phasing scenarios, accuracy of bilingual materials, compliance of outreach documentation with Measure A requirements, and readiness of presentation packages for City Commissions and City Council. Laura will manage these interfaces between meetings so unresolved issues do not carry into the next submittal or public-facing deliverable.

Quality Assurance Audit: Michael will conduct an independent QA audit after technical and interdisciplinary reviews are complete and before each formal submittal. The audit will confirm that required reviews are complete, comments are resolved, drawings and narratives are internally consistent, and the package meets City requirements and Measure A documentation standards.

Deliverables and Document Control: Laura will authorize release of each milestone package only after completion of the QC/QA audit. She will also manage the consolidated comment-resolution and decision log, tracking City, community, and internal comments so that approved direction is consistently reflected across the outreach summaries, concept drawings, cost estimates, and presentation materials.

Corrective Action Measures: We will implement corrective actions to address any incorrect or nonconforming work. Along with our comprehensive QC/QA plan, Kimley-Horn will provide the following for each project deliverable:
◢ Work Plan: Identify key tasks, assign team members, estimate timeframes, appoint QC reviewers, and set the project timeline. ◢ Implement Peer Reviews: Have individuals not directly involved in the tasks perform unbiased technical evaluations ◢ Assign QC/QA Responsibilities: Conduct reviews at the end of each project phase to confirm deliverables are accurate, clear, complete, consistent, and aligned with objectives.
◢ Maintain Detailed Project Documentation: Prepare documents with extensive data and work papers explaining decisions made and the rationale behind recommendation

FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Deanna Fraley, PE, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: City Hall 2nd Floor Remodel Update and Second Amendment with Acton Architecture for Architectural Design Services

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement with Acton Architecture, Inc. for the City Hall 2nd Floor Remodel Project adding electrical system evaluation and design services in the amount of $59,432, for a revised cumulative total contract amount not to exceed $356,480; and, Authorize staff to proceed with final design and preparation of construction documents.

BACKGROUND
Lomita City Hall is a two-story building constructed in 1973 consisting of approximately 22,000 square feet of office space. The second floor includes approximately 4,500 square feet of office space, along with electrical, utility/equipment rooms and space leased to AT&T. The second-floor office area was not originally designed for its current use and has been modified over time to accommodate approximately 20 City staff and consultants, resulting in an inefficient layout with limited meeting, storage, and collaborative workspace.

On February 17, 2026, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Acton Architecture, Inc. (Acton) for architectural and engineering design services for the City Hall Second Floor Remodel. Acton was selected through a competitive process in which the City received eight proposals and interviewed four shortlisted firms.

The original project focused primarily on reconfiguring and modernizing the second-floor office area. As design progressed, staff identified an opportunity to coordinate the renovation with the replacement of City Hall’s aging HVAC system. Incorporating the HVAC replacement into the remodel allows the City to coordinate improvements to the

CITY OF LOMITA

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 8b
Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *137
2 building systems with the architectural work and avoid removing or modifying newly completed improvements at a later date. On July 21, 2026, the City Council approved First Amendment with Acton to incorporate the HVAC replacement into the project for a revised total contract amount not to exceed $291,073.

More recently as the full renovation project progressed, additional evaluation determined that the City Hall’s existing electrical system infrastructure is not adequate for the additional electrical load and requires upgrades to accommodate a renovation of this scale.

Staff is recommending approval of Amendment No. 2 with Acton to evaluate the existing electrical system and incorporate appropriate electrical improvements into the final design for the City Hall 2nd Floor Remodel Project.

DISCUSSION
Design Status and Feedback
Acton and its engineering team have advanced the City Hall Second Floor Remodel (Project) through design development. The major components of the proposed secondfloor layout have been established and the design team has coordinated the architectural improvements with the proposed replacement of the building’s HVAC system.

The Project is intended to provide a more functional and efficient second-floor workspace, improve ADA accessibility and compliance, and better accommodate current and future City operations. Concurrently, the HVAC improvements will replace aging mechanical equipment and controls serving City Hall. With the major project components and optimal floor layout established, City Council authorization is sought to advance the project into final design and preparation of construction documents.

During the next and final phase of design, Acton and its engineering team will complete the architectural and engineering details, coordinate the remodel with the HVAC and electrical improvements, prepare technical specifications, complete plan check, and develop documents necessary to advertise the project for construction.

Authorization to proceed with final design does not authorize construction or award a construction contract. Upon completion of the construction documents, development of the final construction cost estimate, and successful bidding, staff will return to the City Council for consideration of the construction contract and associated project funding.

Electrical System Evaluation and Design
As part of the coordinated design effort, staff is also evaluating electrical improvements that can be efficiently incorporated into the City Hall project. The current electrical infrastructure and capacity at City Hall is outdated and unable to accommodate the proposed improvements. Acton’s proposed Second Amendment is divided into two parts.

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *138
3 Part I – Electrical Evaluation and Due Diligence
Part I will evaluate the existing electrical system and identify alternatives for supporting the proposed EV charging improvements. Potential approaches include upgrading existing building electrical equipment or providing a separately metered electrical service dedicated to the EV chargers.

The Part I scope includes architectural services and cost estimating, civil engineering, and electrical engineering for a total cost of $15,529. Due to timing and coordination efforts, staff utilized existing contingency to cover Part I until an amendment could be approved by City Council.

Part II – Final Electrical Design
Following completion of the evaluation and selection of the preferred electrical strategy, Part II will provide the engineering and architectural services necessary to incorporate the selected improvements into the final construction documents. Depending on the selected approach, improvements could include replacement of existing switchgear or distribution panels, utility coordination and permitting, and installation of underground conduit and related infrastructure.

Because the hardscape east of City Hall is already anticipated to be removed and replaced as part of the accessibility improvements, incorporating underground conduit and related electrical infrastructure into the current project will minimize the need to disturb newly completed improvements in the future. Part II design costs $43,903.

Recommended Next Steps
The Project with new electrical infrastructure design improvements is being coordinated as a single design effort to reduce conflicts between building systems and avoid performing improvements that would subsequently need to be removed or modified in the future. Advancing the components together will allow the City to develop a coordinated set of construction documents and a more comprehensive construction cost estimate before returning to the City Council for consideration of construction.

Staff is seeking the authorization from the City Council to proceed with two actions:

1. Approve Amendment No. 2 with Acton for additional electrical design services; and,

2. Authorize staff to proceed with the Project finals design phase and construction documents. This includes completion of the architectural and engineering details for the floorplan, HVAC and electrical improvements; prepare technical specifications, complete plan check, and develop the Bid Packet document, and finalize a budget for project construction.

4 FISCAL IMPACT
Amendment No. 2 with Acton requires and additional appropriation of $59,432, bringing the cumulative contract amount to $356,448. The increase will be funded by the City’s Community Development Block Grant ($326,701) and Water Capital Fund ($29,747).

OPTIONS
Approve recommended action.

1 Amendment 02 – Electrical System Upgrades
Client Name: City of Lomita
Project Name: City Hall 2nd Floor T.I.

Executive Summary
This Amendment is based upon the City requesting a Proposal to provide additional services to assess the existing electrical system to determine necessary upgrades to support up to (4) new Tier 3 EV vehicle chargers. The (2) existing Tier 2 EV chargers are intended to be replaced with (2) Tier 3 EV chargers and a future (2) Tier 3 chargers are desired.

This Proposal is separated into (2) parts with Part I consisting of the due diligence and system evaluation to provide proposed approaches to the electrical improvements and Part II providing full engineering design services as required to complete the selected improvements strategy.

Scope of Work
The Scope of Work for this Amendment is to assess the ability of the building’s existing electrical system to support the (4) EV chargers described above. We anticipate there are likely (2) strategies to support the new chargers: One makes the necessary improvements directly to the existing system and equipment up to and including equipment replacement, the second is to design a separately metered service dedicated to supporting the EV chargers.

If Part II of this Proposal is approved, the final Scope of Work will be dependent upon the final improvement approach selected but potential Scope includes: replacement of the existing building switchgear, replacement of existing distribution panels, and power utility coordination and permitting.

It is anticipated the Scope of Work will include installing underground conduit and infrastructure to support the EV chargers regardless of whether the City approves the Part II design services due to a majority of the existing hardscape to the east of the building being removed/replaced to complete the current site accessibility improvements.

Amendment 01- Building HVAC System Replacement
Client Name: City 4f L4mita
Project Name: Ci' v Ha 2nd F oor T.

Executive Summary
This Amendment is based upon the City requesting a Proposal to provide additional services to design the replacement of the building -wide existing HVAC System. We understand the City previously was in contact with an outside vendor to complete the design and construction of the system replacement and a preliminary Basis of Design Scope of Work was provided to us to serve as a basis of this Proposal.

Scope of Work
The Scope of Work for this Amendment is to complete replacement of the existing air handling unit located inside the 2nd Floor mechanical room, replacement of the existing pneumatic controls with digital controls, and provide new roof -mounted condensing units. The Scope will also include the associated Architectural, Electrical, and Structural engineeringservices to support the system replacement.

It is anticipated the Scope of Work will include additional architectural demolition and replacement of ceilings and/ or finishes outside of the original Scope of Work, Structural strengthening of existing joists to support the new units, roof patching/ repair, and minor electrical system modifications to support the new units.

Assumptions and Exclusions
This Proposal excludes all other consultant and engineering services. If such services are required, additional services can be provided for review/ approval.

This Proposal assumes the existing electrical system has the capacity to serve the new HVAC units.

This Proposal assumes the new HVAC unit weights are such that minor strengthening efforts of existing structural elements are able to complete the Scope of Work. If added weight is such that seismic retrofitting of existing primary structural elements or building load paths is required, additional services will be required to incorporate additional Structural Engineering services.

Testing and Balancing of the existing HVAC system is excluded from this Proposal. It is assumed such testing is not required due to the replacement of the entire system.

Commissioning services are excluded from this Proposal as such services are not code - required for the Scope of Work. If such services are requested by the City, they can be provided under Additional Services.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Deanna Fraley, PE, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: First Amendment to Agreement No. 2026-54 with Local Agency Engineering Associates, Inc. for On-Call Construction Management and Construction Inspection Services and Task Order Approval

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the First Amendment to Agreement No. 2026-54 with Local Agency Engineering Associates, Inc. (LAE) for On-Call Construction Management and Construction Inspection Services (CMCI) authorizing a one-time exceedance to the $200,000 individual task order limit for Task Order No. 1 and Task Order No. 2 associated with the Zone G projects, plus a contingency of 15% for unexpected work, for a total contract amount not to exceed $569,825.30; approve Task Order 1 for the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project; approve Task Order 2 for the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 and 4; and, authorize the City Manager to execute the First Amendment and associated task orders.

BACKGROUND
In May 2026, the City published a request for proposals (RFP) for on-call construction management and construction inspection (CMCI) services to support the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The requested services included construction management, inspection, contract administration, schedule and budget management, materials testing coordination, labor compliance monitoring, and project closeout.

On August 18, 2026, City Council approved professional services agreements with four qualified firms, including Local Agency Engineers Associates, Inc. (LAE), to provide oncall CMCI services. Agreement No. 2026-54 with LAE established an overall agreement limit of $500,000 and individual task order limit of $200,000.

The adopted FY 26-27 Budget includes a series of large Capital Improvement Projects that will require CMCI services.

CITY OF LOMITA

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 8c
Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *192
2 DISCUSSION
Zone G Water Main Replacement Project
The Zone G Water Main Replacement project will replace aging water mains along Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 247th Place (Attachment 1). The existing water mains range from 4 inches to 8 inches in diameter and were originally constructed in 1928, exceeding their anticipated useful life. The project includes installation of approximately 4,500 linear feet of new 8-inch ductile iron water main, abandonment of existing water mains, and installation of associated infrastructure, including valves, service laterals, fittings, and fire hydrants. The improvements will enhance the reliability and resiliency of the City’s water distribution system and improve fire flow within the project area.

The project was identified in the City’s 2022-2027 CIP Master Plan and design plans for the project has been approved.

Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4
The Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G is a multi-phase capital improvement project to rehabilitate deteriorated streets and associated infrastructure within the Zone G project area. Construction of Phase 1 was completed in October 2025, and Phase 2 was completed in May 2026.

Phases 3 and 4 include roadway rehabilitation along Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, Alcor Street, 252nd Street, 247th Place, 254th Street, 255th Street, and Doria Avenue (Attachment 2). Improvements will range from asphalt grind and overlay to full-depth street reconstruction, depending on existing pavement conditions. The project also includes ADA-compliant curb ramps, curb extensions, a new fire hydrant on Alcor Street, and traffic safety improvements identified through the City’s 2025 Citywide School Loading Zone Study and Local Travel Network Project.

Design plans have also been approved for this project.

CMCI Services Required for Both Projects
Both Zone G Water and Zone G Streets Phases 3 and 4 projects include improvements along Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 247th Place, requiring coordination of construction schedules and activities. The water main replacement work must be completed before roadway rehabilitation along the affected streets to avoid excavating newly reconstructed pavement. Utilizing the same CMCI consultant for both projects will provide continuity in construction oversight, improve coordination between contractors, and minimize potential conflicts and delays.

Staff reviewed the City’s prequalified on-call CMCI consultants based on project experience, technical expertise, staffing availability, and anticipated workload. Staff Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *193
3 recommends LAE for both assignments based on their familiarity with the City’s infrastructure and successful performance by providing similar services.

LAE will provide construction management, inspection, contract administration, schedule and cost monitoring, review of contractor submittals and change orders, coordination of materials testing, construction documentation, labor compliance, and project closeout services for both projects.

One-time Authorization to Exceed Task Order Limit with LAE Associates The existing agreement with LAE establishes a maximum individual task order amount of $200,000 with a cumulative agreement limit of $500,000. However, the anticipated construction durations and level of inspection and construction management required for the two Zone G projects result in proposed task order amounts that exceed the existing individual task order limit of $200,000.

Staff recommends a one-time authorization to exceed the $200,000 task order limit, applicable only to Task Order No. 1 for the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project and Task Order No. 2 for the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 and 4. Staff also recommends establishing up to a 15% contingency for each of these task orders to address unforeseen construction conditions, extended construction durations, or additional inspection and construction management services that may be necessary during project delivery. Use of contingency funds would be subject to City authorization.

Approval of the First Amendment would increase the overall agreement limit from $500,000 to $569,825.30.

Moving forward, other future water and street projects, including future task orders with LAE, will be bound to the $200,000 individual task order limit established by City Council authority.

Required Task Orders
Task Order No. 1 will provide CMCI services for the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project, and Task Order No. 2 will provide CMCI services for the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4.

The Notice Inviting Bids (NIB) for the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project was published on September 17, 2026. Advertisement of the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4 is anticipated within the next month.

Approving the task orders before award of the construction contracts will allow LAE to review the construction documents, coordinate with the design consultants, and prepare for construction administration. Early involvement will support a more efficient transition from bidding to construction and help ensure that the water main and street reconstruction projects are appropriately sequenced. Staff recommends approval of the First Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *194
4 Amendment and both task orders to facilitate coordinated construction management and inspection services for these projects.

The City will continue to utilize its other prequalified on-call CMCI consultants for future projects based on project-specific qualifications, availability, workload, and the City’s operational needs. The proposed one-time exception is recommended because of the unique coordination requirements between these two overlapping Zone G projects and is not intended to modify the City’s overall approach to assigning work under the on-call agreements.

FISCAL IMPACT
The First Amendment to Agreement No. 2026-54 would increase the overall agreement limit from $500,000 to $569,825.30, an increase of $69,825.30.

This amount includes two task orders. Task Order No. 1 applies to the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project and is for an amount of $270,794.56 plus a 15% contingency for unexpected costs in an amount of $40,619.18, for a total amount not to exceed $311,413.74. Task Order No. 2 for the Street Reconstruction Project - Zone G Phases 3 & 4 is for an amount of $224,705.70 plus a 15% contingency for unexpected costs in an amount of $33,705.86, for a total amount not to exceed $258,411.56.

Funding for these projects, which include the CMCI work discussed, has already been appropriated in the FY 2026-27 Adopted Budget. The funding sources are identified in the table below:

TASK ORDER FUND AMOUNT
Task Order 1: Zone G
Water Main Replacement Water Capital Fund (Fund 520) $ 311,413.74 Task Order 2: Street

SCOPE OF WORK AND PROJECT APPROACH
Understanding the Need
LAE understands that the City of Lomita is seeking a qualified firm to provide Construction Management, Construction Inspection, Labor Compliance, and Materials Testing services for the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project (Project No.

W-375).

LAE understands that the City is undertaking this project to replace aging water infrastructure, improve water-system reliability and fire-flow capacity, reduce the risk of leaks and service disruptions, and provide safe and accessible water-main alignments within the public right-of-way. Based on the station limits shown in the plan sheet index, the project extends approximately 1,792 LF along Walnut Street, 1,337 LF along Ebony Lane, and 1,050 LF along 247th Place, covering approximately 4,179 LF in total.

Within these limits, the existing water mains will be replaced with proposed 8-inch water mains, together with associated connections, valves, water services, fire hydrants, testing, disinfection, trench backfill, traffic control, and pavement restoration. Collectively, these improvements will enhance the reliability, safety, and long-term performance of the City’s waterdistribution system.

The project includes water-main improvements along portions of the following roadways:
 Walnut Street
 Ebony Lane
 247th Place
LAE will function as a responsive extension of the City’s Public Works staff and provide dedicated oversight throughout construction. Our responsibilities will include construction management and inspection, contractor coordination, contract administration, schedule and cost monitoring, quantity verification, progress payment review, change order management, labor and federal compliance coordination, materials testing coordination, permit compliance, utility and shutdown coordination, traffic control monitoring, public outreach, documentation, and project closeout. LAE will also coordinate this work with the concurrent Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4 to prevent conflicts and avoid disturbance of newly completed pavement.

We will be managing the construction activities, materials testing, geotechnical services, community relations contacts, and field inspection. Resident Engineering services will be provided for submittal coordination, pay requests, change order management and control, quality control, and general Construction Management services to support the construction efforts.

Technical items and submittal reviews will be coordinated with the Engineer of Record (EOR), Delfino R. Consunji, P.E., of Onward Engineering, for this project. LAE worked with Onward Engineering on the 247th Street Area Water Main Replacement Project. The items will be documented and provided to the contractor, construction management and inspection team, and the City Project Manager. LAE will maintain the construction records and transmit them in an orderly and timely fashion to the City during and at the conclusion of the work. The construction duration of this project will be followed, according to the final specifications. The LAE team will review the Construction Contract documents for this project.

The project sites and project vicinity will be visited. We will participate in Pre-Bid meetings if requested. LAE will have a grasp of the project location and be aware of the proximity of the construction work to homes, schools and businesses.

The following are additional project understandings:
 The City intends to present the proposed task order for City Council approval at its October 6, 2026 meeting.  Based on the provided 100% plans, the project is currently awaiting EPA approval, and the City anticipates advertising it for construction by September 11, 2026. The bid due date and bid opening date have not yet been provided.  The project is receiving federal funding through an EPA Community Grant; therefore, compliance with applicable federal funding, labor, documentation, and reporting requirements will be necessary.  The anticipated construction duration is 90 working days. The Water Main Replacement Project is expected to begin approximately one to two months before and overlap with the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4.  LAE will assign a dedicated Construction Observer/Inspector to the Water Main Replacement Project. Backup personnel will be available for simultaneous critical activities, authorized overtime, or work at multiple locations.

City of Lomita
 LAE will perform or assist with community outreach, water-shutdown notifications, traffic advisories, and the resolution of concerns from affected residents and businesses, as requested by the City.  Traffic and pedestrian control will be required along the project limits on Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 247th Place, including areas near intersections, driveways, and active construction zones.  Coordination will be required with City staff, the City of Lomita Water Division, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Los Angeles County Fire Department, EPA and other funding representatives, Caltrans, City of Los Angeles, utility companies, waste collection services, the Street Reconstruction contractor, and other affected stakeholders.
 The project requires encroachment permits from Caltrans and the City of Los Angeles. LAE will coordinate permit requirements and monitor the contractor’s compliance with all applicable conditions.  Construction access, equipment staging, trenching operations, temporary water service, and laydown areas will be coordinated with the City to minimize impacts on residents, businesses, traffic, emergency services, and water customers.
 Land use and zoning within and adjacent to the project limits are primarily residential, with nearby businesses, schools, community facilities, and existing utility infrastructure.

Coordination with the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4 LAE understands that the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project will overlap with the City’s Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phases 3 & 4, with the water project expected to begin approximately one to two months earlier. Water main improvements are planned along Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 247th Place, which are also included in the street rehabilitation project. Close coordination between the two contractors, the City, utility agencies, and both project teams will therefore be essential. LAE will coordinate schedules, work areas, utility activities, traffic control, testing, trench backfill, temporary pavement restoration, and final paving to prevent conflicts and avoid disturbing newly completed improvements.

Water main installation, testing, disinfection, tie-ins, backfill compaction, and utility adjustments will be closely tracked so affected roadway sections can be released for street rehabilitation in a timely manner. LAE will maintain coordinated lookahead schedules and interface logs and promptly identify activities that could affect either project’s schedule, cost, quality, or public access. A dedicated Construction Observer/Inspector will be assigned to the Water Main Replacement Project, while LAE’s Resident Engineer/Project Manager and support team members will coordinate activities across both contracts.

Existing Roadway and Site Conditions
An overview of pavement conditions, surroundings, and site features for each roadway is given below. 247th Place
247th Place is a local dead-end residential roadway lined with single-family homes, landscaped front yards, driveways, sidewalks, and curb and gutter on both sides.

Ebony Lane
Ebony Lane is a two-lane neighborhood collector that connects residential streets with Lomita Boulevard and the surrounding commercial area. The roadway is bordered by single-family homes, driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutter, on-street parking, mature trees, overhead utilities, and community facilities, including Lomita Kiwanis Gardens and King’s Way Community Church. The existing asphalt pavement shows extensive longitudinal, transverse, and interconnected cracking, surface wear, utility-cut repairs, and localized patching, while the centerline striping is worn in several areas. Based on the project plans, approximately 1,337 LF of proposed 8-inch water main will be installed along Ebony Lane, together with associated connections, valves, services, testing, trench backfill, and pavement Figure 3: Existing Conditions of

restoration. Since Ebony Lane carries through traffic and provides access to residences, businesses, and community facilities, staged trenching and traffic control, water-service continuity, driveway access, pedestrian safety, and emergency access will require close coordination.

Experience and Lessons Learned
LAE brings direct and highly relevant experience delivering water main replacement projects for the City of Lomita. Through the 247th Street Area Water Main Replacement Project and Walnut Street Water Main Replacement Project, LAE provided construction management, construction observation/inspection, materials testing, and labor compliance services for the installation and replacement of approximately 5,700 LF of water mains at the City. These projects included pipeline relocations, connections and tie-ins, gate valves, water services, fire hydrants, trenching and backfill, pavement restoration, concrete improvements, traffic signal loop replacement, and coordination within active residential and commercial corridors.

This experience has provided LAE with a strong understanding of the City’s water infrastructure, construction standards, documentation requirements, and expectations for contractor oversight. Key lessons learned that will be applied to the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project include:
 Verify existing utilities, connection points, service locations, and field conditions before excavation to reduce conflicts, delays, and change orders.
 Closely coordinate shutdowns, tie-ins, testing, disinfection, and service transfers to minimize interruptions and maintain reliable water service.
 Monitor pipe installation, bedding, backfill, compaction, and testing at each stage so deficiencies are corrected before trenches are paved.
 Maintain advance notifications, clearly defined work zones, and continuous residential, business, pedestrian, emergency, and waste-collection access.
 Coordinate temporary and permanent pavement restoration with the overlapping Zone G Street Reconstruction Project to avoid damaging or repaving newly completed improvements.  Maintain complete records of installed quantities, service connections, valves, hydrants, testing results, labor compliance, change orders, and as-built conditions to support efficient project closeout.

Key Challenges
The Zone G Water Main Replacement Project will require proactive coordination and close field oversight to address the following key challenges:
 Identifying existing utilities and resolving conflicts before and during excavation.  Coordinating water shutdowns, tie-ins, disinfection, testing, and service transfers while minimizing customer interruptions.
 Maintaining residential access, emergency response, waste collection, pedestrian movement, and local traffic through active work areas.
 Monitoring pipe installation, bedding, backfill, compaction, and pavement restoration to ensure compliance with project requirements.

 Coordinating construction sequencing with the overlapping Zone G Street Reconstruction Project to prevent conflicts and avoid disturbing completed improvements.
 Completing the work within the anticipated 90-working-day construction period while accommodating permitting, testing, shutdown, and restoration activities.
 Addressing unforeseen subsurface conditions, undocumented utilities, unsuitable soils, groundwater, and discrepancies between the plans and actual field conditions.  Managing limited staging and material-storage areas within residential corridors while minimizing noise, dust, parking restrictions, and neighborhood disruption.

Scope of Work and Project Approach
LAE’s project approach is built on a thorough understanding of the City’s objectives, project requirements, and anticipated challenges. Drawing on our proven expertise in construction management, construction observation/inspection, labor compliance, and material testing, we will deliver a proactive, solutions-focused approach that emphasizes quality, safety, schedule adherence, and cost control. The following tasks outline LAE’s responsibilities and approach in delivering comprehensive services for the City from pre-construction to project closeout, ensuring quality, efficiency, and compliance.

Task 1 – Constructability Review
LAE will conduct a thorough and systematic constructability review upon execution of the Professional Services Agreement (PSA). This process will ensure that all construction plans, specifications, and related documents are clear, feasible, and optimized for efficient execution before work begins in the field. By identifying and addressing potential challenges early, LAE will help the City avoid costly delays, change orders, and rework during construction.

Our review will be led by our experienced Senior Construction Manager and Construction Observer/Inspector in coordination with the City’s project management team, the design consultant, and other stakeholders as necessary. We will utilize our extensive municipal construction experience to ensure that the project is ready for successful execution.

The constructability review will include, but not be limited to, the following actions:
 Examine all construction drawings and specifications to verify completeness, accuracy, and consistency with applicable Federal, State, and local standards.  Identify any design ambiguities, missing details, or potential conflicts within the documents that could impact construction efficiency.
 Assess whether the design and specifications allow for practical sequencing of work and efficient contractor mobilization and demobilization.
 Evaluate existing site conditions in relation to the design to confirm constructability and identify potential constraints such as staging areas, site access, and traffic control requirements.  Identify cost-effective alternatives to materials, methods, or phasing that will maintain quality while reducing cost or construction time.
 Highlight potential construction challenges, such as space limitations, weather-dependent activities, or complex coordination requirements, and propose proactive mitigation measures.  Verify proposed water-main alignments, tie-in locations, service connections, valves, fire hydrants, trench limits, utility crossings, and required utility separations against existing field conditions.  Evaluate construction phasing, temporary water shutdowns, testing, disinfection, bacteriological clearance, service transfers, and final system activation to minimize customer interruptions.  Confirm the constructability and sequencing of work within Caltrans and City of Los Angeles rights-of-way and incorporate all applicable encroachment-permit conditions.

Deliverables and Outcomes
 Summary of identified constructability issues, comments, and suggested considerations for the City’s review.  Updated mark-ups or redlined plan sheets will be prepared, where necessary, to clearly illustrate proposed adjustments.
 Coordination meetings will be held with the City and design team to finalize all approved changes prior to issuing the Notice to Proceed.

Environmental and Regulatory Agency Compliance
LAE will provide as-needed coordination with the Regional Water Quality Control Board, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, United States Army Corps of Engineers, State Department of Public Health, nearby Cities (if needed), City of Lomita, and City’s Departments and other City staff in management of the construction contract.

Environmental support duties shall include but not be limited to reviewing and commenting on Water Quality Management Plans (WQMP) and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP), including the annual reports. LAE will verify the contractor’s compliance by providing inspection to confirm the Contractor is complying with its SWPPP and with storm water regulations.

LAE will provide the level of effort to inspect and monitor the Contractor’s work for commissioning and start-up of all individual systems, as well as overall start-up. This will include coordination of scheduled utility shutdowns, tie-ins, and appurtenant work. LAE will check and inspect to its satisfaction to ensure that all equipment and facilities have been properly installed, calibrated, and are operating for every component of the Project. LAE will coordinate the required hydrostatic pressure testing, leak checks, chlorination and disinfection, flushing, bacteriological testing, and related water activities with the Contractor and City.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)
LAE’s QA/QC procedures are designed to ensure full compliance with project objectives, contract documents, and applicable standards through a structured, results-driven approach. Prior to construction, the team will conduct a comprehensive review of the Plans, Specifications, and Estimates (PS&E) to identify potential issues, verify constructability, and confirm alignment with funding requirements. A project-specific workplan will be implemented to monitor quality, schedule, and budget concurrently, with proactive measures to address deviations before they impact progress. LAE’s Construction Management systems will track submittals, inspections, and corrective actions in real time, ensuring that all work meets or exceeds the City’s standards, safety requirements, and industry best practices.

EPA Community Grant and Federal Compliance
LAE understands that the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project is supported by federal funding through an EPA Community Grant and must comply with applicable federal environmental, civil-rights, documentation, and reporting requirements. EPA issued a Categorical Exclusion determination for the Lomita Water System Improvements Project on June 27, 2025, pursuant to 40 CFR Section 6.204. LAE will coordinate with the City, design team, contractor, and applicable agencies to ensure that construction remains consistent with the approved project scope, limits of disturbance, environmental findings, grant conditions, and required permits.

The CATEX documentation anticipates minor, temporary, and localized construction effects related to traffic, noise, fugitive dust, equipment emissions, and access. LAE will monitor the contractor’s compliance with approved traffic-control measures, dust suppression, noise restrictions, stormwater BMPs, work-hour limitations, and other applicable environmental controls. LAE will further support the City’s compliance with 40 CFR Parts 5 and 7 and applicable federal nondiscrimination requirements, including Title VI, Title IX, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, the Age Discrimination Act, and Section 13 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. Project communications and public-outreach activities will be administered without discrimination, and reasonable accommodations, alternative formats, and language assistance will be provided as directed by the City to ensure meaningful access for persons with disabilities and individuals with limited English proficiency. LAE will maintain organized compliance records and provide the documentation needed to support City reporting, reimbursement, audits, and project closeout.

Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G (Phases 3 & 4) Page | 12 City of Lomita
 LAE will assign a dedicated Construction Observer/Inspector to this project and a separate Construction Observer/Inspector to the concurrent Water Main Replacement Project. Backup personnel will also be available for simultaneous critical activities, authorized overtime, or work at multiple locations.  LAE will perform or assist with community outreach, public notifications, and the resolution of concerns from affected residents and businesses, as requested by the City.
 Traffic and pedestrian control will be required along the project limits, including 247th Place, 252nd Street, Ebony Lane, Alcor Street, Walnut Street, 254th Street, Doria Avenue, and 255th Street.  Coordination will be required with City staff, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Los Angeles County Fire Department, City of Los Angeles, utility companies, waste collection services, the Water Main Replacement contractor, and other affected stakeholders.
 The project requires a City of Los Angeles encroachment permit. LAE will coordinate permit requirements and monitor the contractor’s compliance with all applicable conditions.  Construction access, equipment staging, and laydown areas will be coordinated with the City to minimize impacts on residents, businesses, schools, traffic, and public services.  Land use and zoning: Residential.

Coordination with the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project LAE understands that this project will overlap with the City’s Zone G Water Main Replacement Project, which is expected to begin approximately one to two months earlier. Water main improvements are planned along Walnut Street, Ebony Lane, and 247th Place, the same streets scheduled for rehabilitation under this project. Close coordination between the two contractors, the City, utility agencies, and the project teams will therefore be essential. LAE will coordinate schedules, work areas, utility activities, traffic control, testing, temporary pavement restoration, and final paving to prevent conflicts and avoid disturbing newly completed improvements. Water main installation, testing, tie-ins, backfill compaction, and related utility adjustments will be closely tracked before affected roadway sections are released for final street rehabilitation. LAE will maintain coordinated look-ahead schedules and interface logs and will promptly identify activities that could affect either project’s schedule, cost, quality, or public access. A dedicated Construction Observer/Inspector will be assigned to the Street Reconstruction Project, while LAE’s Resident Engineer/Project Manager and support team members will oversee coordination across both contracts. Backup construction observation/inspection personnel will also be available to maintain coverage during simultaneous critical activities, authorized overtime, absences, or work occurring at multiple locations.

On-street parking is common, and residential waste containers may occupy portions of the curbside on collection days. The existing asphalt pavement shows signs of aging, including longitudinal and transverse cracking, surface wear, patching, and previous utility-cut repairs. Based on the project plans, full pavement-section reconstruction is proposed to correct the underlying deficiencies, restore structural capacity, and provide a smooth and durable roadway surface. Since the street has limited access and numerous residential driveways, construction sequencing, resident notifications, emergency access, waste collection, parking restrictions, and continuous property access will require close coordination throughout the work. 252nd Street
252nd Street is a short residential cul-de-sac extending west from Ebony Lane and is bordered by single-family homes, landscaped front yards, driveways, sidewalks, and curb and gutter. The existing asphalt pavement exhibits widespread longitudinal, transverse, and interconnected cracking, along with surface wear and several previous pavement and utility-cut repairs. The project plans identify an asphalt concrete overlay to restore a smoother and more uniform driving surface, improve ride quality, and extend the roadway’s service life. Since the street has only one access point and includes a cul-de-sac turnaround, construction sequencing and traffic control will be important to maintain access for residents, emergency vehicles, deliveries, and waste collection. LAE will also closely monitor pavement Figure 2: Existing Conditions of 247th

preparation, crack treatment, utility adjustments, drainage transitions, asphalt placement, and connections to Ebony Lane to ensure a durable and properly finished roadway.

Ebony Lane
Ebony Lane is a two-lane neighborhood collector that connects residential streets with Lomita Boulevard and the surrounding commercial area. The roadway is bordered by single-family homes, driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutter, on-street parking, mature trees, overhead utilities, and community facilities, including Lomita Kiwanis Gardens and King’s Way Community Church. The existing asphalt pavement shows extensive longitudinal, transverse, and interconnected cracking, surface wear, utility-cut repairs, and localized patching, while the centerline striping is worn in several areas. The project plans identify an asphalt concrete overlay to restore a smoother, safer, and more durable roadway surface. Since Ebony Lane carries through traffic and provides access to residences, businesses, and community facilities, staged traffic control and continuous driveway, pedestrian, emergency, and service access will be essential.

Alcor Street
Alcor Street is a short residential cul-de-sac extending west from Walnut Street and is lined with single-family homes, landscaped yards, driveways, sidewalks, and curb and gutter. On-street parking is common along both sides, creating a relatively constrained construction area. The existing asphalt pavement shows surface damage, longitudinal and transverse cracking, previous utility-cut repairs, and localized deterioration near the concrete cross gutter at Walnut Street. The project plans identify full pavement-section reconstruction and fire hydrant improvements to address underlying pavement deficiencies, restore structural capacity, and provide a smooth and durable roadway surface. Since Alcor Street has only one point of access, LAE will closely coordinate construction sequencing, resident notifications, parking restrictions, emergency access, waste collection, driveway access, and the connection to Walnut Street. Particular attention will also be given to subgrade preparation, compaction, pavement transitions, drainage, and protection of adjacent concrete improvements.

Walnut Street
Walnut Street is a north-south neighborhood roadway that connects several residential streets with the commercial area near Lomita Boulevard. The corridor is bordered primarily by single-family homes, driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutter, on-street parking, mature landscaping, fire hydrants, and overhead utilities. The existing asphalt pavement shows surface oxidation, longitudinal and transverse cracking, localized patching, previous utility repairs, and wear around manholes and other utility covers. The centerline striping is also faded in several areas. The project plans identify an asphalt concrete overlay and associated curb-ramp, curbextension, and hardscape improvements to improve ride quality, accessibility, drainage, and the overall roadway condition. LAE will closely coordinate traffic control, property access, utility adjustments, paving transitions, and pedestrian movements.
254th Street
254th Street is a local residential roadway extending between Feijoa Avenue and Narbonne Avenue. It is bordered by single-family homes, landscaped yards, driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutter, mature trees, overhead utilities, and onstreet parking. Although the existing asphalt surface appears comparatively uniform, localized wear, pavement repairs, and potential underlying base or subgrade deficiencies may affect its long-term performance. The project plans identify pavement rehabilitation and localized curb, ramp, and hardscape improvements within the designated limits. Since the plans require pavement coring along 254th Street, LAE will closely monitor the verification of existing pavement thickness and condition before confirming the final rehabilitation treatment.

Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G (Phases 3 & 4) Page | 14 City of Lomita
Construction will also require careful coordination of residential access, parking restrictions, traffic control, utility facilities, and connections at Feijoa and Narbonne Avenues.

Doria Avenue
Doria Avenue is a local residential roadway with limited through access, bordered by single-family homes, landscaped front yards, driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutter, on-street parking, and overhead utilities. The existing asphalt pavement shows widespread longitudinal, transverse, and interconnected cracking, surface oxidation, localized patching, and wear along the wheel paths and pavement edges.

The project plans identify an asphalt concrete overlay to restore a smoother and more uniform driving surface, improve ride quality, and extend the pavement’s service life. LAE will closely monitor pavement preparation, crack treatment, localized repairs, utility adjustments, asphalt placement, and transitions at intersecting streets and driveways. Construction sequencing and public notification will also be important to maintain continuous access for residents, emergency vehicles, deliveries, and waste collection within this constrained residential area. 255th Street
255th Street is an east-west residential roadway extending from Walnut Street toward Western Avenue and the City limits. The corridor is bordered by single-family homes, driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutter, on-street parking, overhead utilities, and fire hydrants, with Alexander Fleming Middle School and a church located near the project area. The existing asphalt pavement shows extensive longitudinal, transverse, and interconnected cracking, surface wear, patching, and previous utility-cut repairs, indicating varying pavement conditions along the roadway. The plans identify an asphalt concrete overlay along most of the project limits and full pavement-section reconstruction near the eastern end. Pavement coring will be required to verify the existing section and confirm the appropriate rehabilitation treatment. LAE will closely coordinate school access, pedestrian safety, traffic control, resident notifications, driveway access, utility adjustments, and work near Western Avenue and the City boundary.

Experience and Lessons Learned
LAE has served the City of Lomita under its on-call agreement since 2018 and recently completed the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G Phase 1. This direct experience provides our team with a clear understanding of the City’s construction standards, administrative procedures, documentation requirements, and expectations for contractor performance.

Drawing on our Phase 1 experience, LAE will place particular emphasis on:
 Asphalt surface and gutter-lip tolerances
 Accurate sidewalk and curb-ramp quantity measurements  Pavement, gutter, and work-area cleanup
 Utility verification and potholing
 Identification and removal of unsuitable subsurface materials  Permit readiness before construction begins
 Complete and timely daily inspection reporting
 Approved staging and equipment-storage locations
 Prevention of unauthorized overnight equipment parking  Maintenance of driveway, pedestrian, and emergency access  Timely resolution of field issues before they affect paving operations LAE recognizes that the principal challenges will include coordinating two overlapping construction contracts, maintaining access within residential areas, managing unknown utility and subgrade conditions, enforcing ADA and materials requirements, satisfying outside-agency permit conditions, and completing the improvements within the City’s approved schedule and budget.

Our familiarity with the City and recent experience within Zone G position LAE to identify these issues early, minimize disruption, and deliver a coordinated, high-quality project.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Adrian Fernandez, Community and Economic Development Director
MEETING DATE: October 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Zoning Text Amendment No. 2026-05 – A Code Update Related to Residential Carports

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Introduction of an ordinance approving Zoning Text Amendment No. 2026-05 to amend Section 11-1.30.04(E) (Carports) of Lomita Municipal Code (LMC) Title XI (Planning and Zoning) Chapter 1 (Zoning) and find the action to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

BACKGROUND
On September 14, 2026, the Planning Commission unanimously voted in favor of adopting Resolution No. PC 2026-15, recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance to approve the proposed Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) and other revisions.

Additional related revisions to the Site Plan Review process are also included, and the incorporation of a new Zoning Clearance section for ministerial projects.

DISCUSSION
Pursuant to LMC Section 11-1.30.04(E), a residential carport may only be permitted with a Modification and Site Plan Review. A Modification and Site Plan Review are land use entitlements that are subject to specific findings that must be made in support of each. A Modification may be requested for deviations to certain residential development standards such as building setbacks, utility equipment setbacks, lot frontage, combined area of accessory buildings/structures in the rear yard, and fence and wall height limit. A Modification is also required for a residential carport.

A conflict exists in this section of the Zoning Code because a carport structure is inherently different from other typical requests that are subject to a Modification request.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No. 9a
Tuesday, October 20, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *298
2 Pursuant to LMC Section 11-1.70.08, finding B, carport structures are not considered a development standard. This distinction is significant in the findings for a Modification.

The above-referenced finding is not suitable for a carport and conceivably could not be made for a carport, as it is not typically associated with physical constraints for which relief is needed from a technical standard. If this finding cannot be made in support of a carport, the carport cannot be approved. This results in an endless loop. To solve this matter, staff is recommending that a residential carport not be subject to a Modification.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Staff finds that adoption of this Zoning Text Amendment is not subject to CEQA pursuant to 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) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. The proposed Zoning Text Amendment revises the City’s administrative procedures by removing the Modification requirement for residential carports. The amendment does not authorize any development or change any General Plan land use designation, zoning classification, permitted land use, or development standard. Accordingly, adoption of the ordinance will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a “project” within the meaning of CEQA Guidelines section 15378. Alternatively, the adoption of this Ordinance 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).)

PUBLIC NOTICE
Notice of this hearing dated October 20, was published in The Daily Breeze Newspaper and posted at City Hall, Lomita Park and the City’s website.

FISCAL IMPACT
There are no financial implications resulting from this recommendation.

OPTIONS

1. Approve the proposed zoning text amendment.

2. Adopt the Ordinance with specified amendments.

3. Request additional studies and continue the item to a future City Council meeting.

4. Do not recommend approval of the zoning text amendment.
