City Council City Council Regular Meeting 7
Background:

In order to comply with the Proposition 218 rule, the rate adjustment requires forty-five (45) day public notice and a public hearing to be set at council meeting.

The public notice was published in English and Spanish and presents proposed rate adjustment for each system, methodology that complies with the Proposition 218 rule, the proposed revenue and rate adjustments per system, and procedure to protest the adjustment.

On August 15, 2023, the City Council approved a continuation of Public Hearing to November 7, 2023.

On November 7, 2023, the City Council approved a continuation of Public Hearing to January 16, 2024.

The City Council proposed we seek the lowest recommended increase. Staff requested RDN submit a cost Proposal for the City of Lynwood’s Water and Sewer Rate Study review that will allow additional options to be presented before City Council.

Discussion and Analysis:

The primary goal of the Water & Sewer Rate Study is to help the City establish rate structures that achieve the objectives of revenue stability, equitable cost recovery, and ratepayer affordability. The study considers the legal framework in developing the rates to ensure that the calculated cost of service rates provide a fair and equitable allocation of costs to the different customer classes. Article XIII C (Proposition 26), Article XIII D, Section 6 (Proposition 218), and Article X, Section 2 of the California Constitution govern the principles applicable to the rate study.

At the December 12, 2022 Council meeting, the City Council approved Robert D. Niehaus, Inc. (RDN) to review and prepare a Water and Sewer Rate Study.

The recommendations were developed utilizing the City’s customer usage data, billing records, accounting, operating and management records, capital improvement plan, debt ratios, and reserve policies. Based on the provided data, key assumptions were made for the study using appropriate resources, RDN’s statistical/econometric analyses, data, plans, comparative examples, and industry expertise.

Of note and relevance, the City has received communications from S&P Global - Ratings, United States Public Finance/Utility Revenues Division, examining the revenue shortfall and its impact on the utility bond covenant. Without a mechanism to address the revenue shortfall City Council City Council Regular Meeting 8
the City's bond ratings maybe negatively affected.

Initially, RDN has proposed the water rate adjustment of 23% increase for the first year and 5% increase thereafter and the sewer rate adjustment of 12% increase throughout five years.

However, the staff has requested the consultant to re-evaluate for more reduced adjustment for both the water and sewer rates.

The resulting rates form an equitable rate structure which is based on the actual cost to provide service for each customer.

Proposed Water Rate Adjustments

The rates for the fixed monthly charge are established based on the size of the meter at the property receiving water service and are calculated to recover a significant portion of the City’s fixed costs, such as water facilities repairs and maintenance, and a percentage of water delivery costs. The relative rates between meter sizes are based on the overall capacity differences between each meter.

Proposed Sewer Rate Adjustments

The City’s rate structure for the sewer service fees consist of a fixed charge per connection based on customer class. No changes were made to the underlying sewer rate structure beyond revenue adjustments. Sewer revenue increases are designed to keep up with inflation impacting the City’s operations and maintenance costs, and renewal and replacement funding needs. Rates for all customers are based on a fixed bi-monthly charge. Proportionality of sewer rates are ensured through the application of relative sewer strengths and flows.

Customer service costs are applied evenly to all customers because they are incurred at an equal amount regardless of the differences in sewer strength or flow.

Committee for the year of 2023
reviewed the City of Lynwood 2023
Water and Sewer Rate Study and the proposed rate and revenue adjustments.

This program will assist those customers that experience an unexpected cost associated with the repair and/or replacement of the utility infrastructure that is currently the customers financial responsibility. In addition, the Finance Committee recommended that the City allocate monies from the retail cannabis revenues for the water conservation incentive program.

Fiscal Impact:

The rate and revenue adjustments will accomplish the City’s goals of capital and reserve funding as well as maintaining debt service coverage ratios.

Subject: 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study

Dear Mr. Cambero,
Robert D. Niehaus, Inc. is pleased to provide this Financial Planning, Revenue Requirements, Cost of Service, and Rate Setting Analysis report to the City of Lynwood. This rate study includes a financial plan to determine the revenue requirements for the next five years and a comprehensive review of the City’s current rates based on the cost of service principles. This report outlines the approach, methodology, findings, and recommendations of the study. Each of the components of this study has enhanced the equitability of the rates we propose.

The proposed rates were developed utilizing the City’s customer usage data, billing records, accounting, operating and management records, capital plans, and reserve policies. Based on the City provided data, key assumptions were made for the study using appropriate resources and our econometric and financial expertise. We are confident that the rates proposed in this report are cost- based and are fully compliant with Proposition 218 and other legal requirements.

It has been an absolute pleasure and honor to work with your City. We thank you, Mr. Fattahi, Ms.

Lloyd, and Mr. Lee.

Respectfully submitted,

City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.1 Background
The City of Lynwood (City) was incorporated in 1921 and is located in southern Los Angeles County with a municipal boundary that encompasses approximately 4. 9 square miles. The City provides water services to 90 percent of the City’s municipal boundary (approximately 4. 4 square miles) a nd Liberty Utilities provides water service to the remaining 10 percent. Land uses within the service area are principally composed of single and multi-family residences, business and commercial districts, and some institutional and industrial areas. Futur e growth within the service area would be attributed to re - development of existing lots since the City is essentially built out. The water distribution system consists of five active groundwater production wells, a booster pump station, a concrete storage reservoir, a Granular Activated Carbon groundwater treatment facility, an imported water connection with the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD), emergency connections with the City of Compton and City of South Gate, and 98 miles of di stribution system piping. The City’s wastewater collection system is also managed by the City’s Public Works Department. The wastewater collection system consists of about 81 miles of gravity sewer pipe, 1,700 manholes, and about 10,000 sewer lateral connections. The City’s system conveys untreated wastewater into various Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts' (LACSD) trunk sewers for transmission, treatment, and disposal. There is a small area in the City of South Gate that discharges into the City of Lynwood’s sewer system before discharging into a LACSD trunk sewer. And only a small volume of City sewage flow passes through the adjacent City of Compton system to LACSD trunk facilities. All wastewater generated within the City is treated at the LACSD White Sands facility. Figure 1 shows the limits of the City Lynwood in Pink. 29 2

1.2 Purpose of Study
The purpose of this analysis is to conduct a rate study which evalu ates the City’s current rates and financial data and propose new rates, if necessary, that meet the City’s financial and strategic goals.

The primary objectives of this Study include:
• Projecting revenues and expenses for a five-year study period • Proposing revenue adjustments to fund the City’s projected financial needs • Proposing rates which do not overly impact customers
• Producing an administrative record which effectively summarizes all findings • Supporting the City through the Proposition 218 process as necessary 30 3
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study

1.3 Rate Recommendations and Proposed Rates

Current Water Rates
Currently, City retail water customers pay a bi-monthly fixed charge per connection, which is based on the customer’s meter size . Additionally, customers with a dedicated private fire connection pay a bi - monthly fee based on the size of the fire meter. Customers also pay variable charges based on water use. All customers are billed $4.23 per hundred cubic feet (hcf) of water used. T he current rates as described are displayed in Table 1.

Water
• Aligning meter ratios to match AWWA recommendations to provide a basis for different levels of service requirements between meter sizes
• Removing the variable portion of rates for private fire connections • Adjusting rates annually by the recommended revenue adjustments of 14.5 percent, 6.0 percent, 6.0 percent, 6.0 percent, and 5.0 percent, respectively Sewer
• Adjusting rates annually by the recommended revenue adjustments of 4.0 percent per year

Proposed Rates
RDN proposes the following rate and revenue adjustments to accomplish the City’s goals of capital and reserve funding as well as maintaining debt service coverage ratios. Table 2 shows the proposed revenue adjustments for the five-year rate study period. In the first year of the study, the City should raise water revenues by 14.5 percent in year one, followed by 6.0 percent in the next three years, and 5.0 percent in the final yea r. Additionally, the City should bill customers based on meter size ratios provided by the AWWA which represent industry standards, as meter size accounts for a reasonable way to determin e the relative capacity requirements of each type of customer. The resulting rates form an equitable rate structure which is based on the actual cost to provide service for each customer. Costs were allocated between Domestic Water Service and Fire Service Line customers during the cost of service analysis.

The rates for ea ch meter size represent an equitable portion of the total cost of service for each class allocated the respective meter based on the calculations shown in the Cost of Service Analysis. The rates which result from these adjustments are shown in Table 3. 32 5

Reserve Funding
Figure 2 shows the water fund balance with no adjustments and Figure 3 shows the water fund balance under the proposed financial plan through the study period. Unless the City increases revenues, the overall cash balance of the water utility will become negative in FY 2027. Fund balances are maintained in case emergency capi tal is needed, or some unforeseen event causes rate revenues to vary. Under the proposed rate plan, cash balances should continue to grow after the study period, which will allow the City to maintain operations well into the future. The reserve target shown in Figure 3 was developed by calculating six months of operating expenses in the final year of the study and accounting for annual capital expenditures for the water utility. A further explanation of reserves will be described in the financial planning section of this report.

Current Sewer Rates
Currently, City sewer customers pay a fixed rate bi-monthly based on their customer class. Residential customers and commercial customers make up the two customer classes and the rates are based on inclusion into one of those two categories. The current rates as described are displayed in Table 4.

Customer Class Bi-Monthly Fee
Residential $34.54
Commercial $184.70
Fixed Charges

Proposed Rates
The recommended sewer rates maintain the current rate stru cture overall but provide a revenue adjustment schedule designed to contribute to City reserves, fund considerable capital expenditure needs, and allow the City to maintain debt service coverage ratios. Because the City does not track water 35 8
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study
use data for al l customers (some sewer customers have water service provided by a private water company), accurate data was not available to allocate costs between customer classes , or customers within the classes. Estimates were used to make a cursory allocation of costs. If the City wants to adopt a more rigorous cost allocation, flow and strength data should be collected for each customer type. For example, the current customer class for commercial customers encompasses all non -residential sewer users; presumably, this class can be sub-divided based on a survey to different strength and flow types which can then be allocated costs appropriately . Additionally, it is likely that sewer flow patterns differ between single family and multi-family units. With accurate flow data, the relative impact each has on the system could be discerned and a rate based on an equivalent dwelling ratio could be implemented. Table 5 shows the proposed revenue adjustments for the study period. RDN, working with City staff, determined that an annual increase of 4.0 percent through the study period was necessary. The resulting rates are shown in Table 6.

Capital and Reserve Funding
The proposed financial plan for the sewer utility maintains acceptable levels of reserves during the rate study period. The City’s current fund balance for the sewer utility is higher than the recommended target based on the projected levels of operating and capital expenditures. In order to minimize customer impacts, the sewer fund will draw on its current cash balance slightly during the study period while funding capital expenses. The proposed revenue adjustments maintain parity with projected inflation. Figure 4 shows the sewer fund balances with no revenue adjustment and Figure 5 shows the fund balances under the proposed financial plan through the study period. The reserve target shown in Figure 5 is based on 6 months of sewer operations, and a calculation of annual asset depreciation. 36 9

METHODOLOGY

2.1 General Methodology
The water and sewer rates formulated in this study were developed using principles set forth by the American Water Works Association (AWWA). RDN rate-making practices incorporate methods described in the AWWA Manual 1 (M1) 1 for Water Systems the WEF Financing and Charges for Wastewater Systems2 wherever possible; however, customer data limitations prevented a full implementation of COS principals, especially for the sewer utility. Where data didn’t allow for precise cost allocations, estimates relying on previous rate determinations for the City were used. Figure 6 presents the steps taken to develop the City’s proposed rates.

Figure 6. Water and Wastewater Rate Study Process

• Growth Projection: project customer growth for the ten-year study period, FY 2023-2024 through FY 2032-33, using the City’s customers’ historical growth data. Forecast revenues for the study period based on the projected customer growth.
• Financial Planning and Revenue Requirements: develop a ten-year financial plan based on the projected revenues and annual costs which include both operating and capital expenses. The City’s target reserve level should also be considered as part of the financial planning. Based on the financial planning, revenue requirements are determined for each year of the study period. • Cost of Service: evaluate the customer classifications and allocate costs based on their service requirements.

• Rate Design: design rates to equitably recover the rate revenue requirements from each customer.

2.2 Legal Considerations
This section of the report describes the legal framework that was considered in the development of the rates to ensure that the calculated cost of service rates provide a fair and equitable allocation of costs to the different customer classes.

California Constitution‐Article XIII C (Proposition 26) The voters in the State approved Proposition 26 on November 2, 2010. Proposition 26 amended Article XIII C of the State Constitution to expand the definition of “tax” to include “any levy, charge, or exaction of any kind imposed by a local government” with listed exceptions. By means of these exceptions, Article XIII C classifies several types of charges, in addition to property-related charges, that are not taxes, such as charges for specific services or benefits, regulatory charges and penalties.

Article XIII C’s definition of “tax” lists the following exceptions: (1) a charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege; (2) a charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payer that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product; (3) a charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication thereof; (4) a charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property; (5) a fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government, as a result of a violation of law; (6) a charge imposed as a condition of property development; and (7) assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII D.

Proposition 26 also provides that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payer bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. Like the proportionality requirements of Article XIII D, assessment of rates under these requirements, if applicable, would be supported by the cost of service approach.
40 13
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study

California Constitution‐Article XIII D, Section 6 (Proposition 218) In November 1996, California voters passed Proposition 218, the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act.” This constitutional amendment protects taxpayers by limiting the methods by which local governments can create or increase taxes, fees and charges without taxpayer consent. Between 2002 and 2017, California courts have ruled that fees associated with providing water services are “property-related” and thus under the jurisdiction of Prop 218. The principal requirements for fairness of the fees, as they relat e to public water service, are as follows: Revenues derived from the fee or charge shall not exceed the funds required to provide the property related service. Revenues derived by the fee or charge shall not be used for any other purpose other than that for which the charge was imposed. The amount of the fee or charge imposed upon any parcel shall not exceed the proportional cost of service attributable to the parcel.

Reliance by an agency on any parcel map, including, but not limited to, an assessor’s parc el map, may be considered a significant factor in determining whether a fee or charge is imposed as an incident of property ownership for purposes of this article.

The rates developed in this Report use a methodology to establish an equitable system of charges that recovers the cost of providing service and fairly apportion costs to each customer as required by Proposition 218.

2.3 Key Assumptions
A test year, FY 2024, was selected for which costs are to be analyzed and rates to be established for this study. The financial plan was built for the next ten years, including the five-year study period FY 2024 through FY 2028 with a detailed revenue adjustment plan. The City’s fiscal year starts on July 1 and ends on June 30.

Escalation Factors
The financial plan was built based on an assumption in the projected escalation of revenues and expenses associated with both operati ons and maintenance (O&M) and capital improvement projects (CIPs). Record inflation because of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused costs to increase at a historic rate. Escalation factors were calculated for 11 independent variables using historical Consumer Price Index (CPI)3 data from Los Angeles, CA, between the year 2000 and the most current calendar year, and

projections by the California Department of Transportation (CADOT) 4 and the California Department of Finance (CADOF)5. Construction costs were determined using a 5-year average building cost index (BCI) for the Los Angeles area published by Engineering News Record (ENR)6. FY 2024 escalation factors are shown in Figure 7. This study assumes that the current record inflation levels caused by the COVID-19 pandemic will recede and return to more normal levels in future years. The overall inflation for the water utility during the study period averages 3.9 percent per year. The overall inflation for the sewer utility averages 3.3 percent per year. Non-recurring expenses (one-time expenses) expenses are not escalated.

Customer Growth
All analyses performed during the study were based on an assumption of customer account growth. The analysis assumes that there will be approximately 0.2 percent annual customer growth based on the City’s 2020 Water Master Plan 7. Additionally, it was assumed that water use would remain stable over the study period.

Water
There are currently approximately 9,032 water meters connected to the City’s water system. At the end of ten years, it was projected that there would be 9,212 meters connected. The City is generally built out, thus the additional meters will most likely be infill or redevelopment. A total of 90 new Domestic Water Service connections are projected to join the water system during the 5 -year rate setting period, 18 per year. Figure 8 shows the annual water customer growth for the study period.

Equivalent Meter Size
When designing fixed monthly water service charges, the potential demand or capacity requirements placed on the water system can be measured by the size of installed meters which receive services from the system. The safe operating flow (or capacity) of a particular size of the meter is essentially the limiting factor in terms of the demand that can be exerted on the water system through the meter. The ratio of the safe operating capacity of various sizes of meters relative to the capacity of a base meter m ay be used to determine appropriate charges for the larger meter sizes8. We recommend that the City consider

3/4–inch meters as the base meter (equal to one equivalent meter). The capacity ratio is calculated using the meter capacities in gallons per minute (gpm) provided in the AWWA M1 for meters larger than 3/4 inch. Table 7 shows the equivalent meter ratios used in this study.

Debt Service Coverage Ratios
The City’s debt covenants require a certain ratio of net revenue in excess of operating expenses. Debt service coverage ratios are one of the main financial plan drivers of the initial revenue adjustment. When calculating debt service coverage requ irements, the City must maintain a combined (water and sewer) net revenue of 125 percent, or a 1.25 debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) to avoid facing technical default. For the purpose of this analysis , RDN used the following definitions provided in the City’s debt documentation:
“Net Revenues are, for any Fiscal Year, an amount equal to all of the Revenues received with respect to such Fiscal Y ear, minus the amount required to pay all Operation and Maintenance Costs becoming payable with respect to such Fiscal Year.” “Operation and Maintenance Costs means costs spent or incurred for maintenance and operation of the Enterprise calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including (among other things) the cost of purchasing w ater, the reasonable expenses of management and repair and other expenses necessary to maintain and preserve the Enterprise in good repair and working order, and including administrative costs of the City that are charged directly or apportion ed to the Ent erprise, including but not limited to salaries and wages of employees, payments to any p ension syst em, overhead, insurance, taxes (if any), fees of auditors, accountants, attorneys or engineers and insurance premiums, and including all other reasonable and necessary costs of the City and the Authority or charges (other than debt service payments) required to be paid by it to comply with the tenets of the Bonds or of any resolution or indenture authorizing the 45 18

WATER UTILITY

3.1 Financial Plan
RDN built a 10-year financial model for the water utility to meet the City’s long-term financial goals.

Demand Projections
RDN first derived aggregate usage levels to project water demand. Next, we calculated per account water usage for each customer by dividing the aggregate usage by the number of accounts . RDN assumed constant per account usage over the study period. This assumption was introduced to ensure that forecasted deviation in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic is conservative. Finally, the forecast number of accounts and per-account usage were multiplied to estimate aggregate use by customer class. Figure 10 shows the City’s total water demand projected for the next ten years.

Revenues
Based on the account growth and water demand projectio ns, RDN forecasts revenues generated from customer rates using the current water rates for the study period , which total approximately $11.7 to $11.8 million annually. Other operating income and non-operating revenue are estimated to provide supplemental revenue of roughly $0.1 million a year; thus, the system’s total revenue for the study period is estimated to be approximately $ 11.8 to $12.0 million annually under the status quo rate schedule.

Table 8 shows the projected revenue flow for the study period (FY 2024 – FY 2028) without any revenue adjustments.

Operating and Maintenance (O&M) Expense
The water utility’s operating budget includes $10.3 million in operating expenses for FY 2023. Operating expenses are expected to increase approximately 5.0 percent in FY 2024. By the end of the five year rate setting period, total operating expenses are expected to reach $12.5 million. Annual overall inflation for operating expenses for the ten year financial planning period is expected to average around 3.9 percent per year . Table 9 shows projected operating expenses for the rate setting period by budget category.

Other Obligations
Other obligations included in the financial plan are capital improvement projects funded by PAYGO (Pay As You Go), debt service obligations, and reserve contributions made from rates.

Capital Improvement Projects
The City plans to spend approximately $2.5 million a year on water capital expenditures during the financial planning period. During the 5-year rate setting period, City staff indicated that there are sufficient debt proceeds to fund capital projects. Additionally, the City is exploring a no interest State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan to wholly fund an $18 million project for the Ham Park Reservoir and Pump Station 9.

In later years of the study, the City will either issue additional debt or begin funding the capital plan with PAYGO. This analysis assumes that the City will begin cash funded capital expenditures in FY 2029.

Debt Service and Coverage Ratios
The City’s debt service schedule totals between $ 2.6 million and $3.2 million a year during the study period. Debt obligations include the 2014 Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2017A Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2017B Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds, and 2020 Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds. Additionally, if the City issues the SRF loan, payments will begin in FY 2025, these payments were included in the financial plan.

It is the City’s policy to consider revenues and expenses from both the water and sewer utility in debt service coverage ratio (DCSR) calculations. Under the current rates, the City is in technical default as net revenues are not 125 percent greater than debt service payments. Table 10 shows the revenues and expenses for both the water and sewer utility under the current rates and the resulting debt service coverage ratio.

Reserves
The City must maintain an appropriate reserve balance to ensure the day-to-day operation will continue during emergencies and guarantee the future stability of the system. The City’s financial goal is to build an appropriate level of cash reserves for each reserve fund included in the financial plan of this Study.

RDN recommends the City develop specific reserve fund policies to direct the appropriate reserve target balances for each utility. Reserve recommendations for the water utility are described below:
• Operating Fund: the minimum target balance of the fund should equal six months of budgeted operating expenses for the upcoming year. It was established to maintain working capital for current operations and to meet routine cash flow needs for the general operations and debt service payments of the system.
• Capital Improvement Fund: The fund's minimum annual allocation should equal the budgeted yearly capital expenses. The fund was established to support capital projects that improve repair, rehabilitate, or replace the capital assets , and eliminate the risk of “use it or lose it” type of spending on infrastructure.

Reserve targets at the end of the study period reach $8.7 million which include 6 months of operating and one year of planned capital expenditures.

Revenue Requirements
Table 11 displays the water utility’s revenue requirements for FY 2024 through FY 202 8. The total expense for each year is offset by other operating revenues and non -operating revenues to compute a pure portion of revenue requirements that need to be recovered from customers’ rates. RDN proposes annual revenue adjustments of 14.5 percent, 6.0 percent, 6.0 percent, 6.0 percent, and 5.0 percent for FY 2024 through FY 2028, respectively, to reach the financial goal set by the City. 50 23

Financial Plan
Based on the projected total revenue and necessary costs to be recovered during the study period, RDN built a financial plan that will generate sufficient revenues for the day -to-day operation and annual PAYGO and make appropriate contributions to reserves. The City currently has a projected ending cash balance of $7.0 million in FY 2023. Table 12 shows the status quo water pro forma with no revenue adjustments and the resulting ending balances.

3.2 Cost of Service Analysis
The purpose of a Cost of Service (COS) analysis is to allocate costs among customers commensurate with their service requirements. RDN employed the “base -extra capacity” cost -of-service method promulgated in AWWA’s M1, whereby costs are first allocated to individual functions, which are typical industry standard activities, then the costs of each function are distributed to appropriate cost causative components, which are defined by the cost driving elements. The results of the COS form a reasonable, equitable, basis for designing rates. Figure 11 displays a typical flow of a process for the COS analysis.

Figure 11. A Typical Flow for Cost of Service Analysis Process

Functionalization of Costs
Operating and capital costs are functionalized based on operating categories used in the City’s budget and input from City staff with expertise on the system and utility industry knowledge. The functionalization of capital expenses is based on 10 years of total planned capital, which represents a better overall estimate of systemwide needs versus just one year of capital expenses. The functions of the water system for both operating and capital expenses include:
• Water Supply – costs associated with source of water supply • Pumping – costs associated with general pumping and energy use • Storage – costs associated with water storage for distribution • Transmission and Distribution – costs associated with transmitting and distributing water to customers
• Meter Services – costs associated with the reading and maintenance of meters • Administrative and General – costs associated with administrative and general functions Functionalization
The revenue requirement is
assigned to various industry
standard activities on a line-by -
line basis.

For the system to provide adequate service to its c ustomers at all times, it must be capable of meeting not only the annual volume requirements, but also the peak demand - the maximum rate at which water is consumed. Therefore, the capacities of the various facilities must meet the maximum coincidental demand of all customers.

Each water service facility within the system has an underlying average demand, exerted by the customers for whom the base cost component applies. For those facilities designed solely to meet average daily demand, 100% of the cost sh ould go to the base cost component. Extra capacity requirements associated with demand in excess of average use consist of Max Day Demand (MDD) and Peak Hourly Demand (PHD). Based on the MDD factor, RDN estimated the average hourly flow during MDD and multiplied it by a peaking factor of 1.5 (the lowest factor recommended by the State Board’s Division of Drinking Water10) to compute a PHD factor. Functions that require capacity to perform at base and MDD levels were allocated based on the ratio of base demand compared to MDD, or 79.9 percent

and 20.1 percent, respectively. Additionally, the costs associated with the functions which require extra capacity service requirements were distributed to the base, MDD, and PHD cost components at 53.3 percent, 13.4 percent, and 33.3 percent, respectively. Administrative and general costs are allocated to cost components based on the percentage of the functions allocated to the other cost categories.

The cost causative components therefore include:
• Water Supply – water purchase costs, chemicals, pumping costs, etc. • Base – delivering water to customers under average demand conditions • Maximum Day Demand (MDD) – the costs of delivering water to customers on the day with the highest demand
• Peaking Hourly Demand (PHD) – the costs of delivering water to customers on the hour with the highest demand on highest day
• Meters – the costs of servicing meters
• Customer Service – billing and other customer service-related costs • Direct Fire Protection Service – the costs of providing water service for public and private fire protection services
The result of the COS analysis determines how the total revenue requirements should be allocated to each of the cost components, which are categorized and grouped based on the similar cost driving elements. Table 16 through Table 17 show the functionalized costs allocated to the cost causative components.

Non-Operating Expense

The non -operating expenses for the test year are made up of debt service payments totaling approximately $2.6 million. Those costs are distributed to the cost components based on the final percentages shown Table 19, above. Operating allocations are based on the actual projected test year expense and the total for each cost component reflect the percentages in Table 17. Table 20 shows the revenue requirements by cost causative components under t he proposed financial plan. The test year costs and offsets are allocated to each cost causative component using the percentages derived from the cost allocation. Revenue offsets are allocated based on the total cost in each category, which includes both operating and non-operating expenses.

Allocation to Units
The final step of the COS analysis is to allocate the co st causative components back to the customers.

In order to perform this, unit values were determined for each cost component. Table 22 shows the number of systemwide units under each category. Equivalent meters are determined by multiplying the total meters by their equivalent meter value. Table 21 shows the meters currently connected to the water system and the number of equivalent meters based on AWWA meter equivalency factors. 56 29

All use categories (Water Use, Max Month, Average Day, Max Day, and Peak Hourly) were calculated based on actual (billed) customer use and are expressed in hcf. As previously described, average day demand constitutes the entire year of use divided by the number of days in a year . Max day demand takes the use during the highest use month (September) and divides that by the number of days in the month (30). Peak hourly demand is estimated by taking the difference between average day and max day demand and multiplying the result by a factor of 1.5. The number of bills in one year (the number of accounts multiplied by 6) serves as the basis for distributing billing and customer service costs associated with meter reading, customer billing and collection, and other customer services costs. The number of equivalent meters is used to distribute meter related service costs.

Allocation to Customer Classes (Domestic Water Service and Fire Service Line) The City maintains two distinct customer classes, domestic water service and fire service line customers.

The total cost allocation by customer class is shown in Table 25. Public fire nodes included in the Water Master Plan number 879, each with a 4” connection. The total fire protection costs allocated to domestic water service are based on the relative difference in equivalent hydrant meters and private fire protection meters.

3.3 Water Rate Design
RDN proposes the following adjustments to customer water rate structures:
58 31
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study
• Aligning meter ratios to match AWWA recommendations to provide a basis for various levels of service requirements between meter sizes
• Removing the variable portion of rates for private fire connections • Adjusting rates annually by the recommended percentages of 14.5 percent, 6.0 percent, 6.0 percent, 6.0 percent, and 5.0 percent, respectively
The water rates have two components: 1) a fixed monthly service charge and 2) volumetric rates.

Customers must pay the fixed charge regardless of the water use. In addition, the customers pay volumetric rates based on the volume of water use.

1. Fixed monthly service charge: the rates are established based on the size of the meter at the property receiving water service and are calculated to recover a portion of the City’s fixed costs, such as water facilities repairs and replacements, meter reading, and customer service.

2. Volumetric rates : the rates are calculated based on the cost of water supplies , the cost of managing the City’s water resources at regular and peak use and distributing water throughout the system to customers. The remaining fixed costs that are not recovered via fixed charges are also recovered from volumetric charges. The rates are billed per hundred cubic feet (HCF).

Together, the two components (fixed and volumetric) are calculated to recover the proportionate cost of providing water service attributable to each customer.

Fixed Charge
A percentage of peaking costs and all meter costs are divided by the number of equivalent meters using the AWWA ratio discussed in the Key Assumptions section to compute the unit cost for each cost component. Peaking costs (approximately 57 percent) are included in the fixed charge to account for the necessary capacity requirements of larger meters to accommodate peak flows inherent in greater infrastructure needs. Customer service costs are simply divided by the number of accounts since the service requirements of this cost type are the same regardless of the meter size installed on a property.

Table 26 shows the total costs allocated to each cost category for the two customer classes, the number of units for the category, and the cost for a year and a month of service for each cost unit. The resulting monthly unit costs are used to calculate the fixed customer rates. 59 32

Fixed Charges

Volumetric Rates
Volumetric rates are designed based on variable costs such as water purchases, treatment, and base and peak delivery costs.

Domestic Water Service
For domestic water service , the current rate structure was maintained to mitigate rate impacts , one variable rate for all water used per hcf. To determine the appropriate charge for water use, the costs allocated to variable rates ($10.3 million) are divided by the projected water use for the test year (2.2 million hcf). The unit charge for water use was calculated to be $4.76 per hcf (Table 31).

Variable Charges

Ratio of Fixed and Variable Revenues
While a majority of costs borne by the water utility are fixed and don’t depend on the amount of water used, it was determined that including all fixed costs into the fixed charge would put undue burden on 62 35
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study
small water users. Additionally, having a majority of costs allocated to the variable portion of rates should cause customers to conserve water. The proposed rates maintain the relative ¾ allocation to variable charges which the City currently uses. Costs allocated to the fixed portion of rates include meter costs, customer service costs, peaking costs. Costs allocated to the variable portion of rates include source of supply costs, base delivery costs, and the remaining peak costs not included in fixed charges.

Figure 12 shows the percentage of projected revenues collected from fixed and variable rates for the test year. Under the proposed rates, a total of $10.3 million will be recovered from variable rates and a total of $3.1 million will be recovered from fixed rates.

3.4 Bill Impact Analysis
This analysis compares customers’ bills under current and proposed rates. The bills were calculated at the 15th percentile, 30th percentile, the 50th percentile (median), 70th percentile and the 90th percentile for each meter size to determine the impacts on distinct types of customers. The following section shows bill impacts for ¾” and 1” customers, who make up over 92 percent of the total domestic water service customers in the City’s service area. Since the variable component is being removed from fire protection meters, the impact on these meters does not change depending on the use.

Domestic Water Service Bill Impact
Figure 13 shows the dollar change in the bill based on ¾” meter domestic water service, use at selected usage points as described above. The City’s median ¾” domestic water service customer uses water for 20 hcf bi-monthly. Additionally, 90 percent of ¾” meter domestic water service customers use under 46 hcf per billing period.

Figure 13. Domestic Water Service Bill Impacts by Usage for ¾” Meter

64 37
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study
Figure 14 shows the dollar change in the bill based on 1” meter domestic water service use at selected usage points as described above. The City’s median 1” customer uses 25 hcf bi-monthly. Additionally, 90 percent of domestic water service customers use under 85 hcf per billing period.

Figure 14. Domestic Water Service Bill Impacts by Usage for 1” Meters

Domestic Water Service Rate Comparison
There are significant differences in the rates and rate structures of water providers in the neighboring communities to the City of Lynwood. Some of the differences are because of administrative paradigms, which are unique to each agency. For example, investor -owned utilities are allowed to make a profit on their water service, whereas municipal ones are not. Customer rates can be affected by outside funding sources such as property taxes and transfers. Finally, the rate structure itself may influence which types of users pay a proportion of costs. Figure 15 shows projected bi-monthly water rates in July 2023 for 9 local providers at 32 hcf of use. The usage level at 32 hcf was chosen because it represents the average customer usage for Lynwood’s customers with a ¾” meter . Also shown are the proposed rates for the City of Lynwood. Individual water rates range between $104.30 and $307.17 at 32 hcf of usage. The new 65 38
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study
rates proposed for the City of Lynwood will fund O&M expenses, contribute to reserves, maintain debt service coverage ratios, and allow significant CIP spending.

For customers using 32 hcf, their bills will remain near the regional average of customer bills.

SEWER UTILITY

4.1 Financial Plan
RDN built a 10-year financial model for the City of Lynwood’s sewer system to meet the system’s long- term financial goals. The account growth and demand projections are presented for 10 years in this report. The detailed rate analysis was performed for the first five years because rate recommen dations designed under Prop 218 cannot exceed five years.

Revenues
Based on the customer growth projections RDN conducted a revenue analysis using the current sewer rates. The City currently collects revenues from residential customers and commercial customers. The revenue analysis also includes non -operating r evenues such as interest income and miscellaneous revenue. These revenues are used to offset the revenue requirements that need to be recovered from customers’ rates . This projection was created unde r the status quo and does not include proposed revenue adjustments.

Operating and Maintenance (O&M) Expense
The itemized O&M expenses were carefully reviewed by the City and forecast for the study period using escalation factors discussed in the Key Assumptions section. Table 34 shows the City’s projected O&M expenses for the sewer utility during the study period. O&M Expenses are expected to increase by 3.1 percent on average annually.

Other Obligations
Other obligations included in the financial plan are capital improvement projects funded by PAYGO (Pay As You Go), debt service obligations, and reserve contributions made from rates.

Capital Improvement Projects
The City plans to spend approximately $ 1.25 million a year on sewer capital expenditures during the financial planning period. This analysis assumes that the City will begin cash funded capital expenditures in FY 2024.

Debt Service and Coverage Ratios
The City’s debt service schedule totals between $ 2.6 million and $ 3.2 million a year during the study period. Debt obligations include the 2014 Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2017A Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2017B Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds, and 2020 Lynwood Utility Authority Revenue Refunding Bonds. Additionally, if the City issues the SRF loan, payments will begin in FY 2025, these payments were included in the financial plan.

It is the City’s policy to consider revenues and expenses from both the water and sewer utility in debt service coverage ratio (DCSR) calculations. Under the current rates, the City is in technical default as net revenues are not 125 percent greater than debt service payments. Table 35 shows the revenues and expenses for both the water and sewer utility under the current rates and the resulting debt service coverage ratio.

Reserves
The City must maintain an appropriate reserve balance to ensure the day-to-day operation will continue during emergencies and guarantee the future stability of the system. The City’s financial goal is to build an appropriate level of cash reserves for each reserve fund included in the financial plan of this Study.

RDN recommends the City develop specific reserve fund policies to direct the appropriate reserve target balances for each utility. Reserve recommendations for the water utility are described below:
• Operating Fund: the minimum target balance of the fund should equal six months of budgeted operating expenses for the upcoming year. It was established to maintain working capital for current operations and to meet routine cash flow needs for the general operations and debt service payments of the system.
• Capital Improvement Fund: The fund's minimum annual allocation should equal the budgeted yearly capital expenses. The fund was established to support capital projects that improve repair, rehabilitate, or replace the capital assets, and eliminate the risk of “use it or lose it” type of spending on infrastructure.

Reserve targets at the end of the study period reach $3.2 million which include 6 months of operating and one year of planned capital expendit ures. Since the sewer utility’s balance is above the target reserves, the sewer utility will not contribute any additional funds to their cash balance, instead, some of the current balance will be used to offset rate adjustments.

Revenue Requirements
Table 36 displays the water utility’s revenue requirements for FY 2024 through FY 202 8. The total expense for each year is offset by other operating revenues and non-operating revenues to compute a pure portion of revenue requirements that need to be recovered from customers’ rates. RDN proposes annual revenue adjustments of 4.0 percent, 4.0 percent, 4.0 percent, 4.0 percent, and 4.0 percent for FY 2024 through FY 2028, respectively, to reach the financial goal set by the City. 69 42

Financial Plan
Based on the projected total revenue and necessary costs to be recovered during the study period, RDN built a financial plan that will generate sufficient revenues for the day -to-day operation and annual PAYGO and make appropriate contributions to reserves. The City currently has a projected ending cash balance of $6.0 million in FY 2023. Table 37 shows the status quo water pro forma with no revenue adjustments and the resulting ending balances.

4.2 Cost of Service Analysis
In the same way as the water system’s Cost of Service (COS) analysis was performed, a sewer system’s COS analysis also utilizes a three ‐step approach to allocate costs proportionally among different customer classes. These steps include 1) functionalization of costs, 2) cost classification, and 3) cost allocation to customers. Provided below is a detailed discussion of the sewer COS analysis conducted for the City, and the specific steps taken for the analysis.

Functionalization of Costs
The typical major functions included in a sewer study are collection, pumping, sewer treatment, and other sewer services. The City does no sewer treatment as this function is borne by LACSD treatment facilities, so no costs were allocated to the treatment functions. RDN carefully distributed each of the O&M expenses and the asset items into these functions. Table 39 and Table 40 show the allocation of the operating budget and ten years of CIP expenses to the standard sewer functions, respectively. Over 65 percent of operating expenses are attributed to Administrative and General functions and all the identified planned capital expenditures for the sewer utility are for conveyance.

Table 39. Percentage of Operating Costs Allocated to Standard Functions Category Allocation Percent
Sewer Collection $296,539 11.2%
Pumping $244,134 9.2%
Customer Accounts $380,856 14.4%
Administrative and general $1,726,662 65.2%
Total O&M $2,648,191 100.0%
O&M Expense

Table 40. Percentage of Non-operating Costs Allocated to Standard Functions Category Allocation Percent
Sewer Collection $14,220,000 100.0%
Total CIP $14,220,000 100.0%
Non-operating Expense

Once costs were functionalized, RDN further classified the costs into two service categories (cost causative components):
• Volume related costs - those costs which tend to vary with the total quantity of wastewater collected and transmitted.
72 45
City of Lynwood – 2023 Water and Sewer Rate Study
• Other sewer service -related c osts – those costs which are a function of the number of customers served. Customer related costs typically include the costs of billing, collecting, and accounting.

Because no strength components were used, sewer flow ratios represent a proxy of the relative cost of service differences between customers. Flow differences between the two customer classes were determined by estimating the relative differences in the current rates and adjusting the total flow to reflect estimates used in the 2017 Water and Sewer Rate Study11. Customer service costs were allocated, then divided, by the total number of customers in each class. Once this process was complete, and the customer classes were identified, the unit cost of these classified costs were calculated and further allocated to different customer classes using the unit of services specific to the class. Table 41 through Table 44 show the functionalized costs allocated to the cost causative components.

Table 45 displays the functionalized O&M costs and other obligation costs allocated to cost causative components for the sewer system. The non-operating expenses for the test year are made up of planned PAYGO capital expenditures of $1.3 million. Those costs are distributed to the cost components based on the final percentages shown Table 44, above. Operating allocations are based on the actual projected test year expense and the total for each cost component reflect the percentages in Table 42.

Allocation to Units
In developing equitable rate structures, revenue requirements are allocated to Residential and Commercial customers commensurate with customer demand and services rendered. The costs are allocated to customer classes according t o the volume of discharge, the relative strength of discharge , and number of connections. Table 46, Table 47, Table 48 and Table 49 show the calculations used to allocate costs to each customer class. First an overall number of units was determined for each cost component (Table 46). Then, the costs allocated to each cost component were divided by the number of units to determine a unit cost (Table 47). Table 48 shows the number of units allocated to each customer class. Based on the 2017 cost allocation, volume units were divided among the customer classes to represent the identified cost difference . Customer units are based on the current number of sewer customers under each class in the City’s billing records. Finally, the costs were allocated to each customer class based on the number of applicable units which were directly related to that custome r class (Table 49). The final cost allocations are used to determine rates. 74 47

4.3 Rate Design
The City’s sewer rates are comprised of a fixed bi-monthly service charge. The fixed service charge is applied to each of the City’s connections.

Sewer Rates
Table 50 shows the calculation used to develop proposed sewer rates for FY 2023-24. To develop rates for all customers, the total cost allocation by customer class was divided by the number of customers for each then by the number of annual bills.

4.4 Bill Impacts
RDN performed an extensive bill impact analysis to find the optimal rates with the least impact across all customers. Note that the bill impact shown below only reflects the test year rates.

Residential and Commercial Customers Bill Impact
This analysis compares customer’s bill under current and proposed rates. Figure 16 shows the dollar change in the bill based on the sewer customer’s usage. All customers are billed a fixed charge regardless of the flow. Under the proposed rates, residential customers will see a bi-monthly increase of $1.84 and commercial customers will see a bi -monthly increase of $5.18 because of slight cha nges to the cost allocation.

Generally speaking, Cities in the surrounding area also provide sewer collection services only. Sewer rates tend to vary based on the amount of infrastructure replacement needed for the particular service area. Figure 17 shows the City’s current and proposed sewer rates compared to six surrounding agencies for residential customers. The City’s proposed rates stay in the same position when compared to other local sewer providers.

Why are you receiving this notice?
The City Council has reviewed the current water and
sewer rate structures and determined that rate in -
creases are necessary to recover sufficient revenues
to operate and maintain the City’s water and sewer
systems. The proposed rate structures for the water
and sewer service fees will provide revenues that
(1) recover costs reasonably borne in providing the
services;
(2) are equitable to all customer classes; and
(3) are proportionate to the cost of the service attrib- utable to the parcels within each customer class.

If adopted, the increases for the water and sew -
er service fees are proposed to be effective for ser -
vices provided on or after January 1, 2024 and July
1, 2024 for each subsequent year as specified with
no additional required action or notice by the City.
¿Por qué recibe esta notificación?
El Municipio revisó las estructuras de tarifas actuales de agua y cloacas y determinó que se necesitan au -
mentos de tarifas para recuperar suficientes ingresos

Comparación de tarifas de alcantarillado por ciudad
Proposed Water Revenue and Rate Adjustments
The rate structure is comprised of two components:
(1) a fixed monthly charge based on meter size.
(2) a variable charge based on the amount of water a customer uses.

The rates for the fixed monthly charge are established based on the size of the meter at the property receiving water service and are calculated to recover a significant portion of the City’s fixed costs, such as water facilities repairs and maintenance, and a percentage of water delivery costs. The relative rates between meter sizes are based on the overall capacity differences
between each meter.

The rates for water use are calculated based on the cost of a percentage of managing the City’s water resources; and distributing water throughout the system to
customers. Together, the two components
(fixed and variable) are calculated to recover
the proportionate cost of providing water service
attributable to parcels within the service area.

Propuesta de ajustes de ingresos y tarifas de cloacas
La estructura tarifaria de la Ciudad para el servicio de cloacas consiste en una cuota fija por conexión en función de la clase de cliente. No se realizaron cambios en la estructura subyacente de las tarifas de cloacas más allá de los ajustes de ingresos. Los aumentos de los ingresos por cloacas tienen el fin de seguir el ritmo de la inflación que repercute en las operaciones y los costos de
mantenimiento, así como en las necesidades de
financiación de renovación y sustitución de la Ci -
udad. Las tarifas para todos los clientes se basan
en una cuota fija bimensual. La proporcionalidad
de las tarifas de cloacas se garantiza mediante
la aplicación de potencias y caudales relativos
de cloacas. Los costos de atención al cliente se
aplican de manera uniforme a todos los clientes
porque se contraen en la misma cantidad, inde -
pendientemente de las diferencias de potencia o
caudal cloacal.

El sistema de la Ciudad transporta las aguas residuales sin tratar a varios colectores troncales de transmisión, tratamiento y eliminación del Distrito Sanitario del Condado de Los Ángeles. ¿CUÁL ES SU HUELLA HÍDRICA? Averígüelo en https://www.watercalculator.org/ Resumen de su sistema
El sistema de suministro de agua es administrado por
el Departamento de Obras Públicas de la Ciudad.

El sistema tiene más de 9,500 clientes que atienden aproximadamente a 63,899 personas Su sistema consiste en 98 millas de tuberías del sistema de distribución El sistema de transporte consta de cinco pozos de producción de aguas subterráneas activos, una estación de bombeo de refuerzo, un depósito de almacenamiento de hormigón, una instalación de tratamiento de aguas subterráneas con carbón activado granular, una conexión de agua importada del Distrito Metropolitano del Agua (MWD) del Sur de California y conexiones de emergencia con la Ciudad de Compton y la Ciudad de South Gate.

Comparación de la tarifa de agua por sistema
(Cliente promedio, ¾” a 32 hcf bimensuales, lo que equivale aproximadamente a 400 galones por día) En promedio, cada persona utiliza entre 80 y 100 galones de agua por día para usos domésticos en interiores. (USGS.org)

Sewer Rate Comparison by City
Proposed Sewer Revenue and Rate Adjustments
The City’s rate structure for the sewer service fees consist of a fixed charge per connection based on custom - er class. No changes were made to the underlying sewer rate structure beyond revenue adjustments. Sewer revenue increases are designed to keep up with inflation impacting the City’s operations and maintenance costs, and renewal and replacement funding
needs. Rates for all customers are based on
a fixed bi-monthly charge. Proportionality of
sewer rates are ensured through the appli -
cation of relative sewer strengths and flows.

Customer service costs are applied evenly to
all customers because they are incurred at
equal amount regardless of the differences in
sewer strength or flow.

La estructura tarifaria está compuesta por dos componentes:
(1) una cuota mensual fija en función del tamaño del medidor. (2) una cuota variable en función de la cantidad de agua que utiliza el cliente.

Las tarifas de la cuota fija mensual se establecen en función del tamaño del medidor de la propiedad que recibe el servicio de agua y se calculan para recuperar una parte significativa de los costos fijos de la Ciudad, como las reparaciones y el mantenimiento de las instalaciones
de agua, y un porcentaje de los gastos de suministro
de agua. Las tarifas relativas entre los tamaños del
medidor se basan en las diferencias de capacidad
global entre cada medidor.

Las tarifas por uso de agua se calculan en función del costo de un porcentaje de la gestión de los recursos hídricos de la Ciudad y de la distribución del agua en todo el sistema a los clientes. En conjunto, ambos componentes (fijos y variables) se calculan para recuperar el costo proporcional del suministro de agua atribuible a las parcelas dentro del área de servicio.

Description
City Council City Council Regular Meeting 179
Revised January 16, 2024

PURPOSE
The purpose of this Statement of Investment Policy (“Policy”) is to establish guidelines for the prudent investment of the City of Lynwood’s idle cash or reserve cash and outlines the policies essential to ensure the safety and financial strength of the City’s investment portfolio.

This policy is based on the principles of prudent money management and conforms to all applicable Federal and State Laws governing the investment of public funds under the control of the Treasurer.

1.0 POLICY:

Annually, in accordance with California Government Code (CGC) Section 53646, the Treasurer will render to the City Council a Statement of Investment Policy for consideration and approval at a public meeting. Any investments currently held at that time that do not meet the guidelines of this policy, as changed from time to time by the City Council, shall be exempt from the requirements of this policy.

However, at the investment maturity or liquidation, such funds shall be reinvested only as provided by this policy, which offer guidance to brokers and any external investment advisors on the investment of City funds. This investment policy applies to all investment activities of the City, except for the Employees Retirement and Deferred compensation funds are excluded because it is separately managed by a third-party administrator. This policy applies to all City funds, except for bond proceeds that are managed by trustees. Trustees must comply with the provision of bond’s indenture agreements.

2.0 SCOPE:

Policy statements outlined in this document apply to the City’s pooled funds, as well as other financial assets under the City Treasurer’s control unless exempted by resolution or by statute. These funds are accounted for in the City of Lynwood Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), and include:
 General Fund
 Special Revenue Funds
 Capital Project Funds
 Enterprise Funds
 Trust and Agency Funds
 Retirement Pension Funds
 Internal Service Funds
 Fiduciary-Agency Fund
 Any new fund created by the City Council unless specifically exempted All monies entrusted to the Treasurer shall be invested in accordance to California Government Code Section 53601, 53602 and 53635.
180

INVESTMENT POLICY
2 3.0 PRUDENCE:

The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the “prudent investor” standard (CGC Section 53600.3) and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio which states that:
“a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the City”.

At the time of purchase, it is the City’s intent to hold all investments until maturity to ensure the return of all invested principal. However, it is recognized that market prices of securities will vary depending on economic and interest rate condition at any point in time.

The City Treasurer, and other individuals who may be designated to manage the City’s investment portfolio, when acting within the intent and scope of this investment policy and other authorized written procedures, and when exercising due diligence, are relieved of personal liability for the individual security’s credit risk or market price change of a security or other investment, provided that deviations from expectations are reported to the City of Lynwood in a timely manner and that appropriate action is taken to mitigate unforeseen adverse conditions.

4.0 OBJECTIVES:

Within the overriding requirement of compliance with all Federal, State and local laws governing the investment of moneys under the control of the Treasurer, and as specified in CGC Section 53600.5, when investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling or managing public funds, the primary objective of a trustee shall be to safeguard the principal of the funds under its control. The secondary objective shall be to meet the liquidity needs of the depositor. The third objective shall be to achieve a market rate of return on the funds under its control.

Taking into account the City’s daily and periodic cash flow needs, the City desires to invest all temporarily idle funds as close to 100% as is reasonably possible. At least 30% of the overall investment portfolio will be comprised of investments maturing in one year or less. No single investment shall be purchased with a term to maturity at the date of purchase that exceeds 5 years, except as special circumstances dictate and with the expressed approval of the City Treasurer.

The basic goal of the City’s investment policy is to ensure safety and availability of temporarily idle funds when they are needed. The primary objectives, in priority order, of the investment activities shall be:

Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Each investment transaction must seek to ensure that capital losses are avoided, whether from securities default, broker-dealer default, 181

INVESTMENT POLICY
3 or erosion of market value. The City will endeavor to preserve principal by mitigating both credit risk and market risk, as specified below.

Credit risk, which is defined as the risk of loss due to insolvency or other failure of the issuer of a security, must be mitigated by purchasing investment grade securities and by diversifying the investment portfolio so that the failure of any one issuer does not unduly harm the City’s capital base and cash flow.

Market risk, which is defined as market value fluctuations, must be mitigated by limiting the average maturity of the City’s investment portfolio to three years, limiting the maximum maturity of any one security to five years, structuring the portfolio to take into account historic and current cash flow analysis, eliminating the need to sell securities for the sole purpose of short term speculation.

Liquidity: Because the City operates its own water utility and bills monthly for utility services, cash flow is generated on a daily basis. Historical cash flow trends must be compared to current cash flow requirements on an ongoing basis to ensure that the City’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all reasonable anticipated operating requirements. In managing City funds for cash flow needs, it is generally not the intention to liquidate a security prior to maturity in order to meet expected cash flow needs. However, it is important that when exceptional conditions require, and there are unexpected cash flow demands, a security sale can be done quickly.

Return on the Investment : The investment portfolio shall be designed and managed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the investment objectives, authorized investments and the cash flow needs of the City.

5.0 DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY:

In accordance with Section 53607 of the Government Code, the City of Lynwood management responsibility for the investment program is hereby delegated to the Treasurer, who shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of control to regulate the activities of subordinate officials, and their procedures in the absence of the Treasurer. Under the provision of CGC Section 53600.3, the Treasurer is a trustee and a fiduciary subject to the prudent investor standard. The City may delegate to the City Treasurer the authority to invest or reinvest City funds for a one-year period.

The Treasurer may delegate all, or a portion of his/her investment authority to a Deputy City Treasurer. Prior to the delegation of the investment authority to a Deputy City Treasurer, the Treasurer shall notify the City council and request confirmation of the delegation. Delegation of investment authority will not remove or abridge the Treasurer’s investment responsibility.
182

INVESTMENT POLICY
4 The City may engage the services of one or more external investment managers to assist in the management of the City’s investment portfolio in a manner consistent with the City’s objectives. Such external managers may be granted discretion to purchase and sell investment securities in accordance with this Investment Policy.

The Treasurer shall establish written investment policy procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this policy. The procedures should include reference to: safekeeping, wire transfer agreements, banking service contracts and collateral/depository agreements. Such procedures shall include explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for investment transactions. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the Treasurer.

The Treasurer and Deputy Treasurer shall attend at least one training session within twelve months after taking office or being appointed, and at least annually thereafter. The training session should be sponsored by a professional organization, such as, but not limited to: Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA), California Society of Municipal Finance Officers (CSMFO), Municipal Treasurers Association of the United States & Canada (MTA, US&C), California Municipal Treasurer Association (CMTA), and Government Investment Officers Association (GIOA). Training must include some or all of the following components: investment controls, security risks, strategy risk, market risks, and compliance with Federal, State and local laws.

6.0 ETHICS AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

Elected officials, City officers, employees and any other individual involved in the investment operations are prohibited from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions, or which could give the appearance thereof. Furthermore, these same individuals shall disclose any material financial interest in financial institutions that conduct business within their jurisdiction, and they shall further disclose any large personal financial/investment positions that could be related to the performance of the City. The Treasurer shall immediately disclose any financial interest which is subject to disclosure under the California Political Reform Act or would constitute a conflict of interest under Government Code Section 1090 to the City Manager. All other City Investment Officials shall immediately disclose any financial interest which is subject to disclosure under the California Political Reform Act or would constitute a conflict of interest under Government Code Section 1090 to the City Manager.

7.0 AUTHORIZED DEALERS AND INSTITUTIONS:

The City may conduct investment transactions only with banks, savings and loans associations, and registered broker-dealers. Any investments other than those purchased directly from an issuer must be purchased from (i) an individual or entity licensed by the State as a broker-dealer, as defined in Section 25004 of the Corporations Code, and which is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, (FINRA) or (ii) from a member of a federally-regulated securities 183

INVESTMENT POLICY
5 exchange, or (iii) a national or state charted bank; or (iv) a federal or state association (as defined by Section 5102 of the Financial Code); or (v) a brokerage firm designated as a primary government dealer by the Federal Reserve Bank.

The City Treasurer, either directly or through an authorized party, must investigate and evaluate all financial institutions, on an annual basis, that desire to do business with the City in order to determine whether they are adequately capitalized and whether they make markets in securities that are appropriate to the City’s needs.

This may be accomplished by the following: a financial institution to complete and return an appropriate questionnaire, audited financial statements and proof of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) registration and good standing.

Nothing in this section precludes the City from engaging the services of a Registered Investment Advisory firm to assist the City, on a discretionary basis, with the investment of the City’s portfolio.

8.0 AUTHORIZED AND SUITABLE INVESTMENTS:

Investments must be made in accordance with the “Prudent Investor Rule” that is cited under the heading “Prudence.”

Although there is no percentage limitation on investments in these obligations, the “Prudent Investor Rule” applies to obligations issued by any of these agencies, because U.S. Government backing is implied rather than guaranteed. The maximum maturity period may not exceed 5 years.

C. Commercial Paper rated “P-1” by Moody’s Investor Services or “A-1” by Standard & Poor’s, and issued by a domestic corporation having assets in excess of $500,000,000 and has a long-term debt rating of “A2” or higher by Moody’s or “A” or higher rating by S&P.

Maximum investment limits are dependent upon limits established under the Local Agency Investment Funds guidelines.

G. Funds held under the terms of a Trust Indenture or other contract or debt issuance agreement may be invested according to the provisions of those indentures’ agreements.

H. The City may invest in non-negotiable time deposits that are collateralized as required by the California Government Code, and that are maintained in banks and savings and loans associations that meet the requirement for accepting deposits of public funds.

Additionally, no more than 2%, calculated at the time of purchase, of the portfolio shall be invested in one name or with one credit counterparty.

14.0 MAXIMUM MATURITIES:

The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that those objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits to be derived and that the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. Internal control procedures shall address:
 Separation of duties
 Control of collusion
 Custodial safekeeping
 Avoidance of physical delivery of securities
 Written confirmation of transfers for investments and wire transfers 188

INVESTMENT POLICY
10  Written procedures for placing investment transactions  Delegation of authority to investment officials

16.0 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:

The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of obtaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with investment risk constraints and cash flow needs:
a. Investment Strategy: The portfolio’s basic investment strategy is to buy and hold investments until maturity. However, the Treasurer may sell a security due to adverse changes in credit risk or, due to unexpected cash flow needs, or to improve the quality, yield, or target duration of the portfolio.
b. Market Yield (Benchmark): The City portfolio is managed with the objective of obtaining a market rate of return, commensurate with identified risk constraints and cash flow characteristics. The appropriate benchmarks will be periodically reviewed by the City Treasurer.

17.0 REPORTING:

In compliance with Government code Section 53607 and 53646, the Treasurer shall provide the City Council quarterly investment reports, which provide a clear picture of the status of the current investment portfolio.

These ratings are designed to assess a bank's exposure to, appetite for, and management of risk, and thus represent the agency's view on the likelihood that it would run into significant financial difficulties such that it would require support. The ratings are as follows:

A. A very strong bank - Characteristics may include outstanding profitability and balance sheet integrity, franchise, management, operating environment or prospects.

B. A strong bank - There are no major concerns regarding the bank.

Characteristics may include strong profitability and balance sheet integrity, franchise, management, operating environment or prospects. 195

WHEREAS the nine Prime St. Francis Medical Center healthcare workers were terminated for engaging in concerted union activity, speaking up for better working conditions and safer staffing after they responsibly delivered their concerns and support letters from various local elected officials, including Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn, to corporate leadership at Prime headquarters. These letters underscored the urgent need for safer staffing levels and improvements in working conditions to enhance patient care.

WHEREAS hundreds of dedicated frontline healthcare workers at Prime St. Francis Medical Center found themselves on their second unfair labor practice strike this year.

This action comes after months of attempting to address long-standing issues such as understaffing, worker turnover, and patient care concerns through bargaining.

Regrettably, these efforts have been met with bad faith bargaining, threats, intimidation, retaliation, and other unfair labor practices by Prime Healthcare management.

WHEREAS the firing of the Registered Nurses and other healthcare workers at Prime St. Francis Medical Center who bravely spoke out about their working conditions and patient care concerns during a global pandemic sends a chilling message to other frontline healthcare workers advocating for themselves and their patients. And it raises concerns among patients that their caregivers are terminated for expressing valid concerns about workplace safety and the quality of care provided.

THEREFORE:

Be it RESOLVED that we, the City of Lynwood, strongly urge Prime Healthcare to immediately reverse the termination of the nine healthcare workers at St. Francis 213
2 Medical Center and reinstate them to their previous positions. We further call upon Prime Healthcare to engage in good-faith negotiations with the frontline healthcare workers of SEIU-UHW who are in contract negotiations to address and resolve the long- standing issues of understaffing, worker turnover, and patient care concerns. This resolution is enacted in the spirit of standing in solidarity with the terminated frontline healthcare workers and prioritizing better working conditions for caregivers and patient care for the communities they serve.

AND APPROVAL OF ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION FROM AMERICAN
RESCUE PLAN ACT (ARPA) FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $220,000.

Agenda Item # 10.2.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A

Background:

As part of the City’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 CIP project list, The City will be installing eight (8) new entry monuments along major arterial streets for vehicles entering the City. The monuments will have the City Water Tower and City Logo Branding elements with three different monument shapes. Staff has consulted with Hunt Design in the preparation of plans and specifications for this project. The plans and specifications were completed and were reviewed by Staff.

Staff published a Notice Inviting Bids (NIB) on the City website and is ready to award the City Council City Council Regular Meeting 226
construction contract for the Lynwood Citywide Entry Monuments project.

Discussion and Analysis:

The project consists of but is not limited to structural design and preparation of shop drawings, fabrication of monuments using appropriate materials, removal and transport of existing monuments, and the installation of newly fabricated monuments.

Project Li
mit:

The new monuments will be installed at eight (8) locations as follows:

Long Beach Boulevard at I-105 Westbound Off Ramp
Long Beach Boulevard at I-105 Eastbound Off Ramp
Long Beach Boulevard at Orchard Avenue
Long Beach Boulevard at Tweedy Boulevard
Atlantic Avenue at Abbott Road

Imperial Highway at Atlantic Avenue

On November 7, 2023, City Council approved the advertisement of the Notice of Inviting Bids (NIB) on the City’s Website (Planetbids). The Notice of inviting bids was published on November 13, 2023. On December 7, 2023, at 10:00 A.M. the bid opening took place and Staff received the following three (3) bids:

Bid Amount

1. Complete Signs
$253,998.00

2. Bravo Sign & Design, Inc.
$379,000.00

3. HZS Engineering Inc.
$637,000.00

An analysis of all bidders was conducted, including a review of their bid schedule, license, references, and required documents. The apparent lowest bidder “Complete Signs” did not register with the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). Pursuant to California Labor Code Section 1725.5 and Senate Bill 854, a contractor must be registered with DIR before bidding on a public works project. Therefore, “Complete Signs” was disqualified and cannot be City Council City Council Regular Meeting 227
awarded the contract. After review of the next lowest bidder’s documents and bid schedule, staff recommends that City Council award the public works contract to Bravo Sign and Design, Inc.

The bidder’s previous performance reveals that the contractor has the necessary experience and the contractor’s license for this type of project.

Contractor shall defend (with counsel of City’s choosing), indemnify and hold the City, its respective elected and appointed boards, officials, officers, agents, employees, representatives and volunteers (individually and collectively referred to hereinafte r as “Indemnitees”) free and harmless from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, liabilities, losses, damages or injuries, in law or equity, regardless of whether the allegations are false, fraudulent, or groundless, to property o r persons, including wrongful death, to the extent arising out of or incident to any acts, omissions or willful misconduct of Contractor, its officials, officers, employees, agents, consultants and contractors arising out of or in connection with the perfo rmance of the Work or this Agreement, including claims made by subcontractors for nonpayment, including without limitation the payment of all consequential damages and attorney fees and other related costs and expenses.

Contractor further acknowledges that any contract on a public works project entered into between a contractor and debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law, and a debarred subcontractor m ay not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works 254
contract. Any public money that is paid or may have been paid to a debarred subcontractor by a Contractor for work performed on this Project shall be returned to the City.

City and Contractor have discussed the provisions of Government Code Section 53069.85 and the damages that may be incurred by City if the Work is not completed within the time specified in this Agreement. The City and Contr actor hereby represent that at the time of signing this Agreement, it is impracticable and extremely difficult to fix the actual damage which will be incurred by City if the Work is not completed within the number of working days allowed. Accordingly, Cit y and Contractor agree that the sum of $500.00 per calendar day is a reasonable sum to assess as Liquidated Damages to City by reason of the failure of Contractor to complete the Work within the time specified.

X. SUBSTITUTION OF SUBCONTRACTORS

The Contractor hereby agrees to reimburse the City for costs incurred by the City in the substitution of subcontractors. Where a hearing is held pursuant to the provisions of Section 4100 et seq. of the Public Contract Code by the City or a duly appointed hearing officer, the Clerk of the City of Lynwood shall prepare and certify a statement of all costs incurred by the City for investigation and conduct of the hearing, including the costs of any hearing officer and shorthand reporter appointed.

The statement shall then be sent to the Contractor, who shall reimburse the City for such costs. If not paid separately, such reimbursement may be deducted from any money due and owing to the Contractor prior to the City’s acceptance of the Project. 255

ADDENDUM

By executing this Addendum, Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the work performed pursuant to the above referenced Agreement is subjected to all applicable provisions.

A. Prevailing Wage Requirements. California Labor Code requires the payment of not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages and rates for holiday and overtime and adherence to all labor standards and regulations. The General Prevailing Wages Rates may be adjusted throughout the term of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment in compensation rates in the event there are adjustments to the General Prevailing Wages Rates.

B. Reports. Contractor shall not perform on site work on this contract until labor compliance documents are filed. Contractor agrees to cooperate with the City to fulfill its notifications requirement to the DIR, as required by DIR’s PWC-100 form or any other required form, and Contractor agrees to provide to the City the information required by the DIR, as generally set forth in Labor Code Section 1773.3. By signing this form, Contractor, and all of its subcontractors, represents that it has registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5 [with limited exceptions under Labor Code section 1771.1(a)] and paid the annual fee due to the DIR, unless the Contractor meets an exception recognized by the DIR or by the law.

267

E. Enforcement.

CONTRACTOR acknowledges it has read and understands that, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, it is required to comply with the Wage Requirement and to submit certain documentation to the City establishing its compliance with such requirement. (“Documentation Provision.”) CONTRACTOR further acknowledges the City has determined that the Wage Requirement promotes each of the following (collectively “Goals”):
a. It protects public job opportunities and stimulates the City’s economy by reducing the incentive to recruit and pay a substandard wage to labor from distant, cheap-labor areas.
b. It benefits the public through the superior efficiency of well-paid employees.
c. It increases competition by promoting a more level playing field among contractors with regard to the wages paid to workers.

2. CONTRACTOS’s Breach of Prevailing Wage/Living Wage Provisions.

WITHOLDING OF PAYMENT: CONTRACTOR agrees that the
Documentation Provision is critical to the City’s ability to monitor CONTRACTOR’s compliance with the City’s public wage obligations.

CONTRACTORS further agrees its breach of the Documentation Provision or general public wage obligations results in the need for additional enforcement action to verify compliance with this Addendum. In light of the critical importance of the Documentation Provision, the City and CONTRACTOR agree that CONTRACTOR’s compliance with this Addendum is an express condition of City’s obligation to make each payment due to the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement. THE CITY IS NOT OBLIGATED

TO MAKE ANY PAYMENT DUE THE CONTRACTOR UNTIL

CONTRACTOR HAS PERFORMED ALL OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER
THESE PROVISIONS. THIS PROVISION MEANS THAT CITY CAN

WITHOLD ALL OR PART OF A PAYMENT TO CONTRACTOR UNTIL ALL REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION IS SUBMITTED. Any payment by the City despite CONTRACTOR’s failure to fully perform its obligations under these provisions shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other term or condition contained in this Agreement or a waiver of the right to withhold payment for any subsequent breach of this Documentation Provision or public wage obligations of the Contractor and the City.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
APPROVED BY:

PREPARED BY:

Mark Flores, Director of Recreation and Community Services SUBJECT:
2024 LYNWOOD 5K/10K FAMILY RUN/WALK
Agenda Item # 10.3.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution entitled: “A

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD AUTHORIZING THE 2024 LYNWOOD 5K/10K FAMILY RUN/WALK PROGRAM AND APPROVING A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $20,000 TO SUPPORT THE PROGRAM.”
Background:

The Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation (LPEF) is proposing to partner with the City of Lynwood to offer the 2024
Lynwood 5K/10K Run/Walk
event to take place on May 11, 2024 on
Lynwood city streets. In continuing the success of the 2022 and 2023 events, the 2024 event aims to provide a significant community-building program that also raises funds to support scholarships and student support programs directly benefitting Lynwood youth. Staff is requesting authority from the City Council to partner with the LPEF, appropriate funding in support of the event and to temporarily close designated streets and public areas that will make up the event course and spaces.

Discussion and Analysis:

The City of Lynwood has offered 5K program opportunities to Lynwood residents throughout its history. From 1984 through the early 1990s and a one-time revival in 2010, the City partnered with St. Francis Medical Center (SFMC) on the famed Nun Run
. Then, in 2012 the
City Council City Council Regular Meeting 273
City sponsored two 5K events in February (SFMC) and in November – a City-produced run/walk to support fundraising efforts benefitting a city special event. More recently, the City supported the Lynwood Sheriff’s Century Station 5K events in 2013 and in 2015.

Furthermore, running has traditionally been a sport that Lynwood youth have excelled at – with over 1,000 local youth participating each year in the City-led “All-City” track meets each Spring. Our community has a storied history of local young men and women going on to compete in national youth-level, college-level and professional ranks.

Mindful of the positive impact and the importance of providing running opportunities to the community, the City has long expressed interest in continuing to offer similar events. However, due to the substantial personnel and budgetary resources needed to produce a large-scale 5K event, the City is not currently in the position to produce a 5K event on its own. Partnering with a respected and experienced community organization is the most cost and resource- efficient way of producing a running event of this scale.

The Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation (LPEF) – the charitable foundation of the Lynwood Unified School District (LUSD) - is formally proposing to again partner with the City to produce a community 5K/10K Run/Walk in 2024 (on 5/11/24). The long-term goal is to produce a yearly, large-scale community-building run/walk event that also raises funds for Lynwood student scholarships and academic support programs. This partnership accomplishes the goal of offering a well-executed, recurring and large-scale 5K/10K event, while also saving the City the significant resources needed to self-produce such an event.

Summary of 2022 5K Event:

Event Revenues
(Sponsorships + Registration Fees) $38,407
LPEF Expenses
(Does not include LUSD Expenses)
$16,342

Net Proceeds for Scholarships
and Academic Support Programs

2024 Event Partnership with the LPEF

A collaborative production of the
2024 Lynwood 5K/10K
with the LPEF involves the following
summary of responsibilities:

City of Lynwood and LPEF as co-presenters of the event.

LPEF to lead event planning efforts and be responsible for the ≈$14,000 event production fee to the professional event organizing firm ( Aztlan Athletics
) and all event
insurances.

LPEF will process and collect all registrations and participant fees (100% of net proceeds benefit LPEF scholarships and academic programs for Lynwood students) The City will be responsible for major event-day logistics that include arrangements for:

Street closures (staffing and rentals, traffic planning) Sheriff support
Start/Finish event area: organize vendor and resource fair, riser stage with local entertainment, music, sound, etc.

The LPEF will be required to notify all businesses and residents along the requested race route. The notification is to be delivered at least two weeks prior to the race.

Proposed road course and event layout is similar to the 2022 and 2023 events. 10K Division will continue in 2024 event
Target Participant Registrations = 750

By agreeing to the proposed partnership, the City will be able to achieve the long-standing goal of hosting a professionally produced 5K/10K Run/Walk, without having to strain its limited staff resources or having to impact other programs in order to focus on self-producing a 5K/10K event. The goal is to establish a self-supporting and recurring community 5K/10K event. Should an event partnership be denied by the City, the LPEF and the Lynwood Unified School District will seek to move the event forward through the City’s standard Special Event permit process.

Through adoption of the accompanying resolution, staff recommends that the City Council City Council City Council Regular Meeting 275
