COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MONTER EY PARK, CALIFORNIA CONFIRMING THE 2021 ANNUAL REPORT AND TH E LEVY OF ASSESSMENTS FOR DOWNTOWN BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2022

On October 20, 2021, the City Council set the date for a public hearing regarding the assessment of businesses within Bu siness Improvement District No. 1. BID Assessment revenues will fund pr omotional activities and special events to benefit downtown businesses.

This hearing was noticed in the Monterey Park Pr ogress newspaper and every business in the BID was sent a hearing notice in Chinese, English, and Spanish. At the conclusion of this public hearing, the Council can choose to adopt the 69-XX
December 1, 2021
resolution confirming the levy of assessment s for the BID or ma ke adjustments as needed.

The Business lmprovement District No. 1 (BlD) was established in 1986 in accordance with the Parking and Busine ss lmprovement Area Law of 1989 (Streets and Highways Code §§ 36000-36004). The BID in the following discussion is business-based, meaning that an asse ssment is collected from businesses based upon fees rather than real property.

California law requires the BID to file an annual report with the City Clerk’s office summarizing its activities and expenditures for the past year and proposing its budget for the upcoming year. The law also requires the BID assessments to be renewed annually after conducting a public hearing. The Advisory Committee to the BID requested that the City Council set a public hearing to consider the 2022 Levy of Assessment Fees. The BID Advisory Committee is not seeking an increase in assessments for the 2022 program year to help the businesses in the BID weather the financial burdens brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Annual revenue and expendit ures may be found within the 2021 Annual Report attached as Attachment 2 to the staff report or at the City Clerk's office where it is available for viewing.

This item was heard Agenda Item No. 3H.

Action Taken: The City Council (1) reopened the co ntinued public hearing at 8:24 p.m.; receiving both written and oral co mments; (2) closed the public hearing at 8:28 p.m., with no regist ered public speakers; and (3) adopted Resolution No. 12285 confirming the 2018-2021 Annual Repor t and the levy of assessments for Business Improvement District No. 1 fo r Program Year 2022, as amended to correct the typographical errors on the page referencing ‘2021 Actual Expenditures as of 10/2021’, “Ending Reserves as of 10/2021: $136,151.12” and the page referencing the ‘2022 Estimated Expendi tures’, “Reserves as of 10/2021:

5A. AUTHORIZE CITY MANAGER TO AM END AGREEMENT NO. 1925-A WITH

CARNIVAL MIDWAY ATTRACTIONS AND PROVIDE DIRECTION REGARDING

THE PLAY DAYS PARADE

The City of Monterey Park traditionally celebrates it s “birthday” each May with a fourday celebration in Barnes Park, “Happy Birthday Monterey Park, Play Days.” As part of the festivities, the City c ontracts with an amusem ent contractor to provide rides, game booths, and concessions at Barnes Park. In addition to the carnival, the four-day event includes live entertainment, food trucks, and the annual Play Days Parade.

Agreement No. 1925-A between the City of Monterey Park and Carnival Midway Attractions allowed for services to be provided at the annua l Happy Birthday Monterey Park Play Days carnival held in 2019, 2020, and 2021.

However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 and 2021 Play Days festivities were cancelled. Carnival Midway Attrac tions has requested that the City consider an amendment to Agreement No. 1925-A to extend the term since the 2020 and 2021 events were cancelled. If approv ed, Agreement No. 1925-A would be amended to allow for a two-year extension for carnivals to be held in 2022 and 2023.

The annual Play Days parade is partially funded by revenue generated at the Play Days carnival. Any additional funds needed for the operation of the parade and the carnival directly impact city departm ent budgets, which include Recreation and Community Services, Police, and Public Works. Over the years the costs associated with the parade have increased and the number of s pectators at the parade has decreased.

Action Taken: The City Council aut horized the City Manager to execute an amendment to Agreement No. 1925-A to ext end the term for two years, in a form approved by the City Attorney, with Carnival Midway Attractions to provide carnival services for the Happy Birthday Monterey Park Play Days carnival on dates to be determined by the City; and pr ovided direction to staff to forgo the annual Happy Birthday Monterey Park Play Days Parade for the upcoming 2022 Play Days event.

SUBJECT: Development Impact Fees for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Reviewing and filing the Annual Report on Development Impact Fees for Fiscal Year 2020-2021; and

2. Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

In accordance with Section 66006 of California Government Code the City is required to annually report on the status of Development Impact Fees, including the collection of revenue and expenditures of these funds. This report summarizes the required financial information for Fiscal Year 2020-2021.

BACKGROUND:

The California Government Code Sections 66000 through 66006 contain certain procedural requirements that apply to the collection of development impact fees and the expenditure of these revenues. Section 66006 of the California Government Code specifies accountability and annual reporting requirements pertaining to development impact fees. The report must include a description of the fee type in the account, the amount of the fee, beginning and ending balances, fee and interest income, expenditures by improvement, a description of interfund loans or transfers, including purpose, interest rate and term, and any refunds. The report must also determine whether funds are available to construct improvements while also identifying construction dates for projects with adequate funding.

This report presents a review only of the development impact fee activity, by account, for the fiscal year. It does not include any recommendations for any fee changes.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to receive and file the Annual Report on Development Impact Fees for Fiscal Year 2020-2021.

SUMMARY:

Pursuant to Chapter 3.110 of the Monterey Park Municipal Code ("MPMC") and Government Code Section 66006, et seq. (the Mitigation Fee Act), local agencies are authorized to condition approval of development projects on the payment of development impact fees for the purpose of defraying all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project.

Any local agency that imposes a development impact fee is required to make available to the public a summary of each mitigation fee account on an annual basis. At this time, the City imposes nine types of development impact fees on development projects: (1) Law enforcement; (2) Fire suppression/medic; (3) Public meeting facilities; (4) Library facilities and collection; (5) Water distribution; (6) Sewer collection; (7) Aquatics facilities; (8) Park land and improvements; (9) Circulation.

BACKGROUND:

The Mitigation Fee Act, regulates the means by which public agencies collect, maintain, and spend development impact fees imposed on development projects. The regulations include specific requirements pertaining to governmental accounting, spending, and annual reporting of development impact fees. Each year, within the first 180 days following the previous fiscal year, the City is required to make available to the public a summary of each mitigation fee account (“Annual Report”).

REPORTING REQUIRMENTS:

The City imposes nine types of development impact fees on development projects . The City records the nine fees in five funds : (1) Circulation; (2) Law enforcement and Fire suppression/medic; (3) Facilities ( library, public meeting, and aquatics) and P ark land and improvement; (4) Water d istribution; and (5) Sewer collection. Accordingly, as required in the Mitigation Fee Act, the City must make an Annual Report which includes:

1) A brief description of the type of fee in the account or fund;

2) The amount of the fee;

3) The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund;

4) The amount of the fees collected, and interest earned;

5) Identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the total amount of the expenditures on each improvement, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with fees;

6) An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence if the local agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing on an incomplete public improvement, and the public improvement remains incomplete;

7) A
description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account or fund, including the public improvement on which the transferred or loaned fees will be expended, and, in the case of an interfund loan, the date on which the loan will be repaid, and the rate of interest that the account or fund will receive on the loan; and 8) T
he amount of any refunds made pursuant to Government Code Section 66001(e) and the amount of any allocations pursuant to Government Code Section 66001(f).

F
urthermore, Government Code Section 66008 provides that a local agency must expend a fee for public improvements solely and exclusively for the purpose for which it is collected. The fee may not be levied, collected, or imposed for general revenue purposes nor may it be comingled with any other account (see, MPMC section 3.110.070).

City Council Staff Report
DATE: January 19, 2022
AGENDA ITEM NO: Consent Calendar No. 3D
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ron Bow, City Manager & Director of Emergency Services SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution ratifying certain actions completed by the City Manager regarding COVID-19 Pandemic; continue to extend the existence of a local emergency; and authorize public meetings via teleconferencing.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Adopting a resolution ratifying certain actions completed by the City Manager regarding COVID-19 Pandemic, continue to extend the existence of a local emergency and authorize public meetings via teleconferencing; and

2. Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:

The Resolution
itself and the actions anticipated by the Resolution were reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”). Based upon that review, this action is exempt from further review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15269(a) because the protection of public and private property is necessary to maintain service essential to the public, health and welfare.
1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

As the
City Council was previously informed, Assembly Bill (AB) No. 361 became effective on September 16, 2021. It amends the Brown Act in several ways but also allows the City to extend its virtual meetings for 30 day increments if a state or local emergency requires social distancing. The City Council previously adopted resolutions on October 6, 2021, November 17, 2021, and December 15, 2021, which allow for the ongoing use of videoconferencing for public meetings.
1 CEQA findings regarding an anticipated imminent emergency are valid (see CalBeach Advocates v. City of Solana Beach (2002) 103 Cal.App.4th 529).

Staff Report

Page 2 of 3 ends

January 19, 2022

BACKGROUND:

To continue utilizing videoconferencing, the City Council must undertake the following:

• The legislative body has reconsidered the circumstances of the emergency; and

• Either of the following circumstances exist:
i) The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of members to meet safely in person.
ii) ii) State or local officials continue to impose or recommend social distancing measures.

On November 10, 2021, the Governor extended the COVID -19 statewide emergency to March 31, 2022. Based upon that declaration – and the most recent Orders from the Los Angeles County Health Department – it is apparent that the local emergency will continue well into 2022. Accordingly, it appears that the continued use of videoconferencing is in the public’s best interest. City Council meetings will continue to be conducted pursuant to Government Code § 54953(e) as implemented by City Council Resolution.

The draft resolution, if adopted, would also ratify certain actions taken by the City Manager utilizing his emergency powers under the Monterey Park Municipal Code. A listing of those actions is included as an exhibit to the resolution.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The final fiscal impacts are unknown at this time. The City Manager will provide a final report when the City Council takes action to end the emergency.

Draft Resolution

RESOLUTION NO. A RESOLUTION RATIFYING CERTAIN ACTIONS COMPLETED BY THE CITY MANAGER; EXTENDING THE EXISTENCE OF A LOCAL EMERGENCY; AND AUTHORIZING PUBLIC MEETINGS VIA TELECONFERENCING. BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Monterey Park as follows: SECTION 1: The City Council finds as follows: A. On March 18, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 12142 which confirmed the existence of a local emergency related to the COVID-19 Pandemic (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”). Section 4 of Resolution No. 12142 authorizes the City Manager to undertake all actions needed to preserve public health and safety in accordance with applicable law. B. The Governor’s March 4, 2020 Proclamation of Emergency (see paragraph 8) suspended the reporting and extension requirements of Government Code § 8630 for the duration of the COVID-19 Pandemic. C. Notwithstanding the Governor’s Proclamation of Emergency, however, the City Council regularly reviewed and ratified actions undertaken by the City Manager when exercising his emergency powers. Accordingly, the City Council adopted a series of resolutions ratifying the City Manager’s actions and extending the existence of a local emergency prompted by the COVID-19 Pandemic. D. Responses to the COVID-19 Pandemic continue to occur on nearly a daily basis since the City Council last considered this local emergency. As a result, the City Manager undertook a number of actions that are listed in attached Exhibit “A,” which is incorporated by reference (“Approved Actions”). E. Effective September 16, 2021, Assembly Bill No. 361 took effect which (among other things) amends certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act governing open meetings and imposes a requirement to consider teleconferencing of meetings every 30 days. F. Effective November 10, 2021, the Governor extended the statewide COVID-19 emergency until March 31, 2022 (via Executive Order N-21-21). G. Government Code § 54953(e) allows the City to continue utilizing teleconferencing (which includes internet based video conferencing) to conduct public meetings under certain circumstances.

Resolution No. Page 2 of 3 SECTION 2: Ratification; Continuation of Local Emergency. The City Council reviewed the state of the community and continues to extend the COVID-19 Pandemic emergency. The Approved Actions are ratified and approved. Based upon the verbal and written reports of the City Manager regarding the COVID-19 Pandemic, the City Council is satisfied that the local emergency will continue for the foreseeable future. SECTION 3: Teleconferencing. A. Pursuant to Government Code § 54953(e), the City Council finds as follows: 1. The state of California continues to be in a declared state of emergency pursuant to Government Code § 8625 (the California Emergency Services Act; see Government Code § 54953(e)(3); see also Governor’s Proclamation dated March 4, 2020 and Executive Order N-21-21 dated November 10, 2021); and 2. Based upon the recommendations of the Police Chief, Fire Chief, and City Manager, along with the most recent Order of the Health Officer for County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health, masks and social distancing continue to be necessary to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus (Government Code § 54953(e)(3)(B)(ii)). B. Accordingly, to protect public health and safety the City Council finds that it is in the public interest to conduct public meetings of its legislative bodies via teleconference as defined by Government Code § 54953. C. The City will adhere to all requirements of Government Code § 54953 governing teleconferencing during the emergency including, without limitation, posting agendas; allowing for real-time public comment via either call-in or internet-based; allowing for written communications that will be either read or summarized into the record during the meeting as determined by the City Council; and protecting the statutory and constitutional rights of all persons appearing before the legislative body. No physical location will be provided for persons wishing to provide real-time public comment. SECTION 4: Reporting. Every 30 days following adoption of this Resolution, the City Council will reconsider the extension of the teleconferencing method of public meetings in accordance with Government Code § 54953(e)(3). Such determinations may take the form of a minute order and be placed on the consent calendar. SECTION 5: Electronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

City Council Staff Report
DATE: January 19, 2022
AGENDA ITEM NO: Consent Calendar No. 3E
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Frank A. Lopez, Director of Public Works / City Engineer SUBJECT: City Hall Fire Alarm Panel Replacement
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Authorizing the City Manager to execute an Amendment, in a form approved by the City Attorney, to the Fire Alarm System Maintenance Agreement with Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP in the amount of $136,000;

2. Appropriating an additional $112,000 from the General Fund balance to replace the existing City Hall fire alarm panel; and

3. Taking such additional, related action that may be desirable EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The existing City Hall fire alarm panel is unreliable. It is currently maintained by Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP (Johnson Controls) which is the only supplier for the system.

Based upon information from Johnson Controls, it is apparent that parts and software are no longer available for the existing system; it requires a routine upgrade with a replacement panel.

Infrastructure for the fire alarm remains in place and is proprietary with Johnson Controls’s equipment. Maintaining the fire panel is contemplated as part of the scope of work in the contract with Johnson Control; the cost needed to upgrade the fire panel, however, was not included within the contract amount. If authorized by the City Council, Johnson Controls will upgrade the City’s Simplex 4100+ panel with a 4100ES and ensure that existing smoke detectors remain operable. The proposed work will likely be completed within 12 weeks of approval. A budget appropriation of $112,000 is needed from the City’s General Fund balance for the additional maintenance costs.

BACKGROUND:

The City has a current contract with Johnson Controls for fire alarm system maintenance.

Due to the age of the alarm system, various components such as the fire alarm panel, have reached or surpassed their service life expectancy. In recent months, the system experienced several dozen false alarms due to the malfunctioning components. During a recent assessment, the vendor advised that the City Hall main fire alarm panel had reached the end of its service life and was no longer supported.

Johnson Controls proposed to replace the current Simplex 4100+ panel with a 4100ES and replace all non-compatible duct detectors and smoke detectors with new compatible

models for $102,000. This work is required to ensure that the fire alarm system continues to be in a safe and operable condition. The ongoing maintenance of the fire alarm system and replacement of panel(s) is essential for the protection of City Hall facilities. It is recommended, therefore, that the City amend the maintenance agreement with Johnson Controls to include the replacement of the fire alarm panel for $102,000, for a total contract amount of $136,000. This would include a 10% contingency for this project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A budget appropriation of $1 12,000 from the General Fund balance to Account No. 1014210-5254, Repair and Maintenance Machinery and Equipment, is required to cover the fire panel replacement and remaining expenses for ongoing maintenance, thereby increasing the total Repair and Maintenance Machinery and Equipment budget to $147,000.

1.Payment.

All payments are due net thirty (30) days
from the date of invoice. Invoicing disputes must be
identified in writing within 21 days of the invoice date.

Payments of any disputed amounts are due and
payable upon resolution. All other amounts remain
due within thirty (30) days from the date of the
invoice. Work performed on a time and material
basis shall be at Company’s then-prevailing rate for
material, labor, and related items, in effect at the time supplied under this Agreement. Company shall
invoice Customer for progress payments to 100%
percent based upon equipment delivered or stored,
and services performed. In the event project duration
exceeds one month, Company reserves the right to
submit partial invoices for progress payments for work
completed at the project site. Customer agrees to pay
any progress invoices in accordance with the
payment terms set forth herein. In exchange for close-
out documents to be provided by Company, Customer
agrees to pay Company the remaining project
balance when on-site labor is completed and prior to
any final inspections. Customers without established
satisfactory credit and Customers who fail to pay
amounts when due may be required to make
payments of cash in advance, upon delivery or as
otherwise specified by Company. Company reserves
the right to revoke or modify Customer’s credit in its
sole discretion. Customer’s failure to make payment
when due is a material breach of this Agreement and
will give Company, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, the right to (a) stop performing any
Services and/or withhold further deliveries of
Equipment and other materials; terminate or suspend
any unpaid software licenses; and/or terminate this
Agreement; and (b) charge Customer interest on the
amounts unpaid at a rate equal to the lesser of 1.5%
per month or the maximum rate permitted under
applicable law, until payment is made in full.

Customer agrees to pay all of Company’s reasonable
collection costs, including legal fees and expenses.

2.Deposit. Unless prohibited by law, Customer
agrees to pay a deposit equal to 30% of the project
sell price (pre-tax) prior to Company providing any
labor or materials on the project. Company will
generate an invoice for the 30% deposit after
Company’s receipt of a written agreement or order
from Customer. Company will not commence work
until receipt of the deposit.

3.Pricing. The pricing set forth in this Agreement is
based on the number of devices to be installed and
services to be performed as set forth in the Scope of
Work (“Equipment” and “Services”). If the actual
number of devices installed or services to be
performed is greater than that set forth in the Scope
of Work, the price will be increased accordingly. If this Agreement extends beyond one year, Company may
increase prices upon notice to the Customer.

All stated prices are exclusive of and Customer
agrees to pay any taxes, fees, duties, tariffs, false
alarm assessments, installation or alarm permits, and
levies or other similar charges imposed and/
or enacted by a government, however designated or
imposed, including but not limited to value-added and
withholding taxes that are levied or based upon the
amounts paid under this Agreement.

Prices in any quotation or proposal from Company are
subject to change upon notice sent to Customer at
any time before the quotation or proposal has been
accepted. Prices for products covered by this
Agreement may be adjusted by Company, upon
notice to Customer at any time prior to shipment and
regardless of Customer’s acceptance of the
Company’s proposal or quotation, to reflect any
increase in Company’s cost of raw materials (e.g.,
steel, aluminum) inability to secure Products, changes
or increases in law, labor, taxes, duties, tariffs or
quotas, acts of government, any similar charges, or to
cover any extra, unforeseen and unusual cost
elements.

4.Alarm Monitoring Services. Any reference to
alarm monitoring services in this Agreement is
included for pricing purposes only. Alarm monitoring
services are performed pursuant to the terms and
conditions of Company’s standard alarm monitoring
services agreement.

5. Code Compliance. Company does not undertake
an obligation to inspect for compliance with laws or
regulations unless specifically stated in the Scope of
Work. Customer acknowledges that the Authority
Having Jurisdiction (e.g. Fire Marshal) may establish
additional requirements for compliance with federal,
state/provincial and local codes. Any additional
services or equipment required will be provided at an
additional cost to Customer.

6. Limitation of Liability; Limitations of Remedy. It
is understood and agreed by the Customer that
Company is not an insurer and that insurance
coverage shall be obtained by the Customer and
that amounts payable to company hereunder are
based upon the value of the services and the
scope
of liability set forth in this Agreement and
are unrelated to the value of the Customer’s
property and the property of others located on the
premises. Customer agrees to look exclusively to
the Customer’s insurer to recover for injuries or
damage in the event of any loss or injury and that
Customer releases and waives all right of
recovery against Company arising by way of
subrogation. Company makes no guaranty or
Warranty, including any implied warranty of
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose
that equipment or services supplied by Company
will detect or avert occurrences or the
consequences therefrom that the equipment or
service was designed to detect or avert. It is
impractical and extremely difficult to fix the actual
damages, if any, which may proximately result
from failure on the part of Company to perform
any of its obligations under this Agreement.

Accordingly, Customer agrees that, Company
shall be exempt from liability for any loss, damage
or injury arising directly or indirectly from
occurrences, or the consequences therefrom,
which the equipment or service was designed to
detect or avert. Should Company be found liable
for any loss, damage or injury arising from a
failure of the equipment or service in any respect,
Company’s liability shall be limited to an amount
equal to the Agreement price (as increased by the
price for any additional work) or where the time
and material payment term is selected,
Customer’s time and material payments to
Company to be calculated with reference to
payments made at the time the loss is sustained.

Where this Agreement covers multiple sites,
liability shall be limited to the amount of the
payments allocable to the site where the incident
occurred. Such sum shall be complete and
exclusive. In no event shall Company be liable for
any damage, loss, injury, or any other claim
arising from any servicing, alterations,
modifications, changes, or movements of the
Covered System(s) or any of its component parts
by Customer or any third party. To the maximum
extent permitted by law, in no event
shall Company and its affiliates and their
respective personnel, suppliers and vendors be
liable to Customer or any third party under any
cause of action or theory of liability, even if
advised of the possibility of such damages, for
any (a) special, incidental, consequential,
punitive or indirect damages of any kind; (b) loss
of profits, revenues, data, customer opportunities,
business, anticipated savings or goodwill; (c)
business interruption; or (d) data loss or other
losses arising from viruses, ransomware, cyber-
attacks or failures or interruptions to network
systems. The limitations of liability set forth in
this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of all
parents, subsidiaries and affiliates of Company,
whether direct or indirect, Company’s employees,
agents, officers and directors.

7. Reciprocal Waiver of Claims (SAFETY
Act). Certain of Company’s systems and services
have received Certification and/or Designation as
Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technologies (“QATT”) under
the Support Anti-terrorism by Fostering Effective
Technologies Act of 2002, 6 U.S.C. §§ 441-444 (the
“SAFETY Act”). As required under 6 C.F.R. 25.5 (e),
to the maximum extent permitted by law, Company
and Customer hereby agree to waive their right to
make any claims against the other for any losses,
including business interruption losses, sustained by
either party or their respective employees, resulting
from an activity resulting from an “Act of Terrorism” as defined in 6 C.F.R. 25.2, when QATT have been
deployed in defense against, response to, or recovery
from such Act of Terrorism.

8. General Provisions. Customer has selected the
service level desired after considering and balancing
various levels of protection afforded, and their related costs. All work to be performed by Company will be
performed during normal working hours of normal
working days (8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday through
Friday, excluding Company holidays), as defined by
Company, unless additional times are specifically

DATE: January 19, 2022
AGENDA ITEM NO: Consent Calendar No. 3F
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Frank A. Lopez, Director of Public Works / City Engineer SUBJECT: Professional Service Agreements for On-Call General Engineering Services
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Authorizing the City Manager, or designee, to execute 3-year professional service agreements, with KOA Corporation, Transtech Engineers, RKA Consulting, and Valued Engineering to provide On-Call Engineering Services, in a form approved by the City Attorney; and

2. Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Staff recommends executing on-call professional services agreements with KOA Corporation, Transtech Engineers, RKA Consulting and Valued Engineering. Three out of the four firms have previously been under contract with the City to assist staff in delivering the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects on an as-needed basis, as well as the occasional temporary staffing needs. These firms have provided exceptional services which include civil, structural, geotechnical, traffic engineering, land surveying, building and landscape architecture services. The fourth firm is a highly qualified and experienced Engineering firm deemed suitable to meet the City’s needs.

Individual task orders assigned to each firm will not exceed $60,000, however multiple task orders may be issued.

BACKGROUND:

One of the primary responsibilities of the Engineering Division is to complete all projects in the City’s annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The list of budgeted CIP projects may include street, sewer, water, park and building improvements and/or equipment upgrades requested by various city departments. The Engineering Division typically takes the lead in coordinating with each department, preparing bid specifications, administering the contracts, and managing construction.

During the course of any given year, there are often many unplanned, high-priority and sometimes emergency projects that are added to the CIP. The increased demand on the engineering staff can make it very challenging to keep up with the day-to-day responsibilities that include reviewing all private residential and commercial development projects, issuing public works permits, providing inspections, responding to all traffic

Staff Report January 19, 2022 Page 2 related issues, attending to the public counter as well as requests from other agencies and utility companies and providing engineering support to all other City departments. As such, having the ability to contract with pre-approved engineering firms on an as needed basis would help relieve staff and better serve the public. Services to be provided by the consultant firms would be on an as-needed basis and generally include preparation of engineered design drawings, construction specifications, cost estimates, construction management, project management, traffic engineering support, plan checking and any related municipal engineering support. Over the years, the City has utilized KOA Corporation, Transtech Engineers, and RKA Consulting to help complete the City’s CIP projects and provide other engineering support services. Recently, staff has worked successfully with consultants to prepare construction drawings, bid specifications and provide construction management including, but not limited to, the City’s $5M Water System Improvements in the Northeast Area and North Atlantic Traffic Corridor, the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and Various Street Resurfacing Projects 2020-2022. These firms have provided exceptional services which include civil, structural, geotechnical, traffic engineering, land surveying, building and landscape architecture. Due to their excellent performance and reliable personnel, staff recommends entering into new 3-year professional service agreements with these firms. Additionally, staff recommends entering into a 3-year professional service agreement with Valued Engineering for similar engineering services. Valued Engineering is based in Upland, CA and provides a comprehensive range of professional engineering services to public agencies. It has assisted nearby agencies including the cities of Montclair, Chino, Ontario and Glendora, and is highly regarded in its field. Valued Engineering’s proposal includes assisting the City of Monterey Park with on-call Civil design services, plan check services, and survey and mapping services. Each of the proposed firms is well rounded and highly qualified to meet the City’s needs. Entering into professional service agreements with the four firms would be beneficial as it would give staff the flexibility to utilize firms with different specialties or based on availability at certain times due to workloads. Furthermore, continuing on-call Engineering services with firms that the City has previously contracted with is beneficial for the smooth continuity of services as they have experience working with City staff, have working knowledge of Monterey Park’s projects, processes, and community needs. FISCAL IMPACT: The firms will be used on an as-needed basis and paid out of the specific Capital Improvement Project budget as they are assigned. In addition, any plan check services provided by these firms would be passed on to the private developers. Attached are the rate schedules for each of the recommended firms.

MPK GHAD RESOLUTION NO. ___

A RESOLUTION ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE

MONTEREY PARK GEOLOGIC HAZARD ABATEMENT DISTRICT LEVYING ASSESSMENTS WITHIN THE DISTRICT.

The Board of Directors of the Monterey Park Geologic Hazard Abatement District (“MPK GHAD”) does resolve as follows:

SECTION 1: The Board of Directors finds as follows:

A. The Monterey Park Geologic Hazard Abatement District (“ MPK GHAD ”) was established for the purpose of preventing, mitigating, abating and controlling geologic hazards, pursuant to Public Resources Code §§ 26500, et seq.

B. The MPK GHAD Board of Directors was presented with an Engineer’s Report for the District prepared by a registered professional engineer certified in the State of California in compliance with Public Resources Code § 26651(a) and § 4(b) of Article XIIID of the California Constitution. The Engineer’s Report is attached to Resolution No. 12267, adopted Wednesday, September 15, 2021, and incorporated by reference.

C. The Engineer’s Report describes the administration, monitoring and maintenance of improvements related to geologic hazards management within the MPK GHAD and explains the estimated budget, the total assessment that will be chargeable to the entire MPK GHAD , the assessment to be levied against each parcel of property within the boundaries of the MPK GHAD, and a description of the method used in formulating the assessment.

D. The MPK GHAD Board of Directors approved the Engineer's Report pursuant to MPK GHAD Resolution No. 12267 on Wednesday, September 15, 2021, and found that a reliable source of funding is required to pay for the cost and expenses of maintaining and operating MPK GHAD improvements acquired or constructed for the MPK GHAD pursuant to Public Resources Code §§ 26500, et seq.

E. The special benefit derived from the MPK GHAD by each parcel is proportionate to the entire costs of the MPK GHAD, and the amount of the assessment is proportional to, and no greater than, the benefits conferred on each parcel. The assessment does not exceed the reasonable c ost of the proportional special benefit conferred on each parcel.

F. Public Resources Code §§ 26650, et seq. authorize, after a noticed public hearing, the levy and collection of an assessment upon specially benefited

Page 2 of 3 ends

property within the MPK GHAD to pay for the maintenance and operation of MPK GHAD improvements. Article XIIID of the California Constitution imposes additional requirements for the levy and collection of an assessment.

G. On Wednesday, November 3 , 2021 , the Board held a public hearing to consider the results of a protest proceeding conducted in accordance with California Constitution Article XIIID, § 4.

H. The Board further finds that levying assessments on the lots and parcels within MPK GHAD is exempt from environmental review under Public Resources Code §§ 26601 and 21080(b)(4), as the California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to actions necessary to prevent or mitigate an emergency and all activities in furtherance of the MPK GHAD are deemed necessary to prevent or mitigate an emergency.

I. It is in the public interest for the MPK GHAD to levy the assessments described in this Resolution.

SECTION 2: The total number of protest ballots mailed or provided to property owners eligible to file a protest ballot was one. The number of valid protest ballots received by the MPK GHAD at the end of the public hearing was _______________. Because the valid number of protests received by the MPK GHAD did not represent a majority protest, the Board is authorized to levy the assessment.

SECTION 3: Assessments. The Board of Directors orders the levy and collection of the annual assessment against the lots and parcels within MPK GHAD as set forth in the Engineer's Report.

SECTION 4: Recording. The Board of Directors directs the Clerk to file, in the office of the County Recorder for the County of Los Angeles, a copy of the assessment diagram, and comply with all other requirements set forth in Streets and Highways Code § 3114.

SECTION 5: Collection. The assessments set forth in the Engineer's Report will be collected by the County Tax Collector in accordance with the procedures set forth in Public Resources Code § 26654.

SECTION 6: Separate Fund. The revenues received by the MPK GHAD as a result of the assessments to be levied pursuant to this resolution will be placed in a fund identified as the "Monterey Park Geologic Hazard Abatement District Fund." Payments from this fund can only be used in accordance with applicable law.

SECTION 7: Environmental Assessment. The Resolution is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “ CEQA” ) and CEQA regulations (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.) because it establishes rules and procedures to implement government funding

mechanisms; does not involve any commitment to a specific project which could result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment; and constitutes an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. Accordingly, this Resolution does not constitute a “ project” that requires environmental review (see specifically 14 CCR § 15378(b)(4-5)).

SECTION 8: Electronic Signatures. Pursuant to Monterey Park Municipal Code §

3.95.020, this Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

SECTION 9: The Clerk is directed to certify the adoption of this Resolution.

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act)
The City prepared a comprehensive update to the Housing Element, a revision of the existing Safety and Community Services Element, and drafted a new Environmental Justice Element to the City of Monterey Park General Plan (collectively, the “Project).

Consequently, an Addendum was drafted for City Council consideration in accordance with CEQA Guidelines § 15164 and is incorporated as Exhibit 1 to the draft Resolution. If adopted, the Resolution would approve the Addendum to the FEIR for purposes of analyzing the Project.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

California law requires counties and cities to prepare and adopt a housing element as part of its General Plan. The Housing Element must provide goals, policies, quantified objectives, and scheduled programs to preserve, improve, and develop housing.

Additionally, the Housing Element must identify and analyze existing and projected housing needs for all economic segments of the community.

Separately, the Safety and Community Services Element is being updated to bring the General Plan into compliance with current California law.

The Government Code requires the City to add an Environmental Justice Element when the City Council concurrently updates two or more General Plan Elements. The Environmental Justice Element includes goals, policies, and objectives that aim to reduce health risks to any identified disadvantaged communities, promote civic engagement, and prioritize the needs of disadvantaged communities.

In accordance with these mandates, the City prepared the required documents, conducted public outreach and is now submitting to the City Council for its consideration.

BACKGROUND:

The Project consists of a comprehensive update to the Housing Element, a revision of the existing Safety and Community Services Element, and addition of a new Environmental Justice Element to the City of Monterey Park General Plan.

California law requires that housing elements be updated every eight years (Government Code Sections 65580 to 65589.8). The Project would update to the City of Monterey Park Housing Element as part of the sixth cycle of housing element updates. For Monterey Park, the planning period runs from October 15, 2021 through October 15, 2029. The 2021 Housing Element Update identifies residential dwelling unit sites adequate to accommodate a variety of housing types for all household income levels and needs of Staff Report

special population groups, as defined under Government Code Section 65583. Among other things, the Project analyzes governmental constraints to housing maintenance, improvement, and development; addresses conservation and improvement of the condition of existing affordable housing stock; and outlines policies that promote housing opportunities for all persons.

The draft Housing Element establishes objectives, policies, and programs to assist the City in achieving state-mandated housing goals. Any rezoning or other land use changes would be considered in the future. Those, along with any proposed development, would require separate environmental evaluation as potential impacts are location-specific and cannot be assessed in a meaningful way until a project site and development proposal are identified.

The Project also includes revisions to the Safety and Community Services Element to be consistent with California law regulating evacuation routes and climate change vulnerability. Further, the Project includes a new Environmental Justice Element consistent with Government Code § 65302.

This Element includes goals, policies, and objectives that aim to reduce health risks to any identified disadvantaged communities; promote civic engagement; and prioritizes the needs of disadvantaged communities as defined by Government Code § 65302(h)(4)(A) and Health and Safety Code § 39711.

CEQA requires the City to conduct an environmental assessment of a project that is subject to CEQA and make an appropriate environmental determination. The City certified a Final Environmental Impact Report for the 2019 Land Use Element that was approved by the City Council and ratified by a vote of the residents of Monterey Park.

For this Project, the Interim City Planner determined that only minor or technical changes to the previously certified FEIR are necessary and that that preparation of an Addendum pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 is appropriate.

HOUSING ELEMENT
The Housing Element is one of eight State-mandated elements in the General Plan.

California law requires that housing elements be updated every eight years (Government Code Sections 65580 to 65589.8). The Housing Element identifies the City’s housing conditions and needs, and establishes the goals, objectives, and policies that comprise the City’s housing strategy to accommodate projected housing needs.

This includes facilitating development of adequate housing for low-income households and for special-needs populations (e.g., unhoused people, seniors, single-parent households, large families, and persons with disabilities). The Housing Element is being updated as part of California’s 6th cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation. For Monterey Park, the planning period runs from October 15, 2021 through October 15, 2029.

Staff Report

January 19, 2022
The 2021-2029 Housing Element would bring the Element into compliance with California law enacted since the City’s adoption of the 2013-2021 Housing Element and with the current Southern California Association of Governments’ (SCAG’s) Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA).

The 2021-2029 Housing Element includes the following components, as required by California law:
 An assessment of the City’s population, household, and housing stock characteristics, existing and future housing needs by household types, and special needs populations.
 An analysis of resources and constraints related to housing production and preservation, including governmental regulations, infrastructure requirements and market conditions such as land, construction, and labor costs as well as restricted financing availability.
 Identification of the City’s quantified objectives for the 2021-2029 RHNA and inventory of sites determined to be suitable for housing.  Opportunities for Conservation in Residential Development: California law requires cities to identify opportunities for energy conservation in residential development.  Review of the 2013-2021 Housing Element to identify progress and evaluate the effectiveness of previous policies and programs.
 A Housing Plan to address the City’s identified housing needs, including housing goals, policies, and programs to facilitate the 2021 Housing Element Update (6th Cycle).

An important component of the Housing Element is the assignment of regional housing (RHNA) needs by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). SCAG determined a final RHNA Allocation of 5,257 units for the City of Monterey Park.

Of these units, 2,146 must be affordable to lower-income households as shown in Table

January 19, 2022
California law requires local jurisdictions to identify enough future housing sites inventory to not only cover the jurisdiction’s 6th Cycle RHNA but to also provide for an additional buffer capacity above the RHNA. The buffer capacity is required to accommodate realistic production rates of affordable housing units; plus having the buffer can allow for instances when a smaller residential project may have to be considered for a given property.

The “No Net Loss” Law (Government Code Section 65863) requires maintenance of sufficient sites to meet the RHNA for all income levels throughout the planning period.

With this required buffer, the number of housing units identified in the Housing Element is approximately 5,262.

Monterey Park anticipates meeting its RHNA requirements for the 6 th Cycle planning period. Changes to zoning is not currently required for Monterey Park to accommodate any shortfall of sites. The draft Housing Element does, however, commit the City to consider amending the Monterey Park Municipal Code, if necessary, to allow 30 dwelling units per acre in the R-3 zone. The Sites Inventory shows a surplus of 295 lower income units, approximately 15 percent above the RHNA allocation after subtracting RHNA credits.

The City’s lower-income household RHNA will be met through underutilized nonvacant sites. Moderate and above moderate income RHNA allocation will be met through vacant and underutilized nonvacant units. The results of the residential sites inventory are presented in Table 2.

The Housing Element update also includes a Housing Plan to address the City’s identified housing needs, which establishes the City’s housing goals, policies, and implementing programs. Some of the implementing programs include specific recommendations for amending the Monterey Park Municipal Code (MPMC). These include:
 Increase the density in the R-3 zone to 30 du/ac and increase the height limit to the extent allowed by City Council authority.
 Change the North Atlantic, Mid Atlantic and Garvey-Garfield Specific Plans and replace them with zone districts consistent with the Land Use Element.  As needed, provide updates to multi-family residential parking standards and parking standards in the Central Business Commercial Zoning District.  Allow, by right, a mix of multifamily dwelling types and sizes that are compatible in scale and form with detached single-family homes, such as duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, courtyard buildings, and townhouses within low density residential zones.
 Sites Used in Previous Planning period Housing Element: allow by-right approval for housing developments proposed for non-vacant sites included in one previous housing elements inventory and vacant sites included in two previous housing elements.
 Mixed Use Sites: establish a minimum percentage of residential development in zoning districts allowing a mix of residential and commercial uses.  Affordable Housing Development Incentives: reflect the Density Bonus requirements of Government Code § 65915 and 65400.

Community participation is an important component of the development of the Housing Element. The Government Code states that the local government must make “a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element.” Monterey Park provided opportunities to solicit input from stakeholders and community members through interviews, community workshops, a project-specific website, a participatory mapping activity, and public meetings.

To reach the largest and broadest spectrum of community members and stakeholders, The City mailed postcards to all residents in Monterey Park announcing the Housing Element update providing a website link and contact information, in English, Spanish and Chinese. Postcards were sent to approximately 23,000 addresses. The City also utilized regular posts to the City’s social media accounts, regular “e-blasts” to interested parties, distributed printed workshop flyers to libraries, City Hall, and community center, and as part of Lunches for Seniors program, and an advertisement in Cascades Newspaper mailed to all addresses within City limits.

In addition to the above outreach, three small group interviews of Community members were conducted on July 20, and July 22, 2021 and a virtual workshop was hosted via Zoom on August 5, 2021. On November 4, 2021, a second virtual workshop was hosted Staff Report

Page 7 of 10 ends

January 19, 2022
via Zoom. In addition, the City created a separate project website dedicated to the Housing Element update. The project website provided detailed background information on the Housing Element, frequently asked questions, and related housing resources.

Project materials associated with the Housing Element update were regularly posted on the project website, including flyers for upcoming workshops, and virtual workshop PowerPoint presentations and video recordings.

A link on the website enabled people to sign up for project email updates and provide comment at any time throughout the project process. Website content was available in eight languages, including English, Chinese Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino, Russian, and Spanish. A presentation on the Housing Element update was provided to the City Council at a regularly scheduled City Council meeting on July 21, 2021 and October 6, 2021. Also, the draft Housing Element update was posted to the project website and made available for public comment from October 1-December 6, 2021.

Unlike other elements in the General Plan, the Housing Element is subject to review by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”). The Legislature empowered HCD to review and, if appropriate, certify housing elements submitted by counties and cities across California. HCD’s certification of the Housing Element helps ensure that the City is eligible for various state grants and also assists the City in defending against any challenges to its land use decisions affecting housing.

The Housing Element was forwarded to HCD for a mandatory 60-day review on October 7, 2021. On December 6, 2021, the City received HCD's findings letter that outlined proposed changes to the draft 2021-2029 Housing Element. HCD's comments were incorporated into the draft Housing Element under consideration.

Should the City Council adopt the proposed Housing Element, then it will be submitted for HCD’s final review. HCD will then issue its opinion as to whether the adopted Housing Element complies with California’s housing laws. HCD has 90 days to complete its review of the adopted Housing Element.

To ensure a timely completion of the Housing Element, the draft Resolution proposes to delegate authority to the City Manager, or designee, to make non-substantive edits to the Housing Element to secure final certification of the Housing Element by HCD.

SAFETY AND COMMUNITY SERVICES ELEMENT
The amendments to the Safety and Community Services Element would update the Element in accordance with California law. Review of the Safety Element is ordinarily required every eight years, concurrent with the City’s adoption of either the Housing Element or the City’s Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Additionally, the City is required to identify and update information related to seismic and geologic hazards, evacuation routes, flood hazards, and fire hazards with each update to the Safety Element. Updates must also include a vulnerability assessment resulting from climate change and, separately, to identify and evaluate evacuation routes.

January 19, 2022
The proposed amendment to the Safety and Community Element satisfies the requirements of California as set forth in the draft Resolution.

As to climate change, the draft Safety and Community Services Element finds that the City is expected to experience more frequent extreme heat events and warmer summer nights; intense precipitation events; extended drought; and degraded air quality.

ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE ELEMENT
California law requires the City to add an Environment Justice Element to the General Plan whenever two or more other elements are concurrently amended. The Environmental Justice Element includes goals, policies, and objectives that aim to reduce health risks to any identified disadvantaged communities (as defined by California law); promote civic engagement; and prioritize the needs of disadvantaged communities.

California defines “environmental justice” as “the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of all races, cultures and incomes, and national origins, with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies” (Government Code § 65040.12).

Environmental justice includes the following:
 Availability of a healthy environment for all people;  Deterrence, reduction, and elimination of pollution burdens for populations and communities experiencing the adverse effects of that pollution, so that the effects of the pollution are not disproportionately borne by those populations and communities;
 Implementing technical assistance to populations and communities most impacted by pollution to promote their meaningful participation in all phases of the environmental and land use decision-making process; and  The meaningful consideration of recommendations from populations and communities most impacted by pollution into environmental and land use decisions.

Disadvantaged communities are based on geographic, socioeconomic, public health, and environmental hazard criteria. The California Environmental Protection Agency uses CalEnviroScreen to identify disadvantaged communities throughout California.

Based upon this screening, there is one census tract (out of 15) that includes a disadvantaged community: Census Tract 6037530400. This disadvantaged community is located along the southwestern edge of the City’s jurisdictional boundaries adjacent to the community of East Los Angeles (and East Los Angeles College).

The draft Environmental Justice Element includes goals and policies related to ensuring environmental justice in the City, particularly for the designated disadvantaged community.

Staff Report

Page 9 of 10 ends

January 19, 2022
The City is committed in ensuring that decisions related to environmental laws, regulations and policies are made in an equitable manner and take into consideration the health and well-being of the City’s most vulnerable populations. Issues identified in the Element include:
 Meaningful Public Participation and Engagement
 Land Use and Pollution Exposure
 Creating Active and Passive Green Spaces
 Public Facilities
 Food Equity
 Healthy and Affordable Housing
 Emergency Response
The proposed Environmental Justice Element adds new policy to the General Plan focused to improve public health and the environment within disadvantaged neighborhoods. Many of the new policies were derived from existing policy and focus on environmental justice. However, there are also new policies created to fully meet state requirements and address community concerns as it relates to Environmental Justice.

Staff’s review of the document has determined that new environmental justice policies do not create conflict with existing Land Use Element policies or with policies in the remaining elements of the General Plan.

The General Plan updates reflect the Communities values and have been prepared to be consistent with State law. On this basis, staff is recommending approval of all three General Plan Amendments and the associated Addendum to the FEIR.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Community Development Department 2022/2023 budget will include a work program to implement the programs identified in the Element updates. Costs and funding sources will be outlined in the work program.

A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN ADDENDUM TO THE FINAL

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (FOCUSED GENERAL PLAN UPDATE FINAL EIR, STATE CLEARINGHOUSE NUMBER 2001011074, DATED JUNE 2019) FOR THE UPDATE TO THE HOUSING ELEMENT (GPA 21-01); AN UPDATE TO THE SAFETY AND COMMUNITY SERVICES ELEMENT (GPA 21- 02); AND A NEW ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE ELEMENT (GPA 21-03) OF THE

MONTEREY PARK GENERAL PLAN
The City Council of the City of Monterey Park does resolve as follows:

SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares that:

A. The Interim City Planner prepared amendments to Monterey Park General Plan consisting of an update to the Housing Element; an update to the Safety and Community Services Element; and a new Environmental Justice Element (collectively, the “Project”);
B. In addition, the Interim City Planner reviewed the Project’s environmental impacts under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”); C. Notices of Public Hearings before the City Council were duly given and published in the time, form and manner as required by law; and on January 19, 2022, the City Council held a public hearing regarding the Project; D. This Resolution, and its findings, is adopted based upon the evidence set forth in the entire record including, without limitation, documentary testimonial evidence; the staff report; and such additional information set forth in the entire administrative record that is too voluminous to reference but is on file with the City Clerk's office.

SECTION 2: Planning Agency. Pursuant to MPMC § 2.56.020(A), the City Council will act as the Monterey Park Planning Agency for purposes of considering the Project.

SECTION 3: Environmental Assessment. The City Council finds that the following facts exist and makes the following conclusions:

A. The City of Monterey Park certified the Monterey Park Focused General Plan Update Final EIR (2019 General Plan EIR, State Clearinghouse Number 2001011074, dated August 2019) for an update to the Land Use Element at a public hearing conducted on December 5, 2019 (the “FEIR”). A copy of the FEIR, Draft EIR and and Addendum is is available at
https://www.montereypark.ca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/12568/MontereyPark_CE QA_Addendum_with-EIR and incorporated by this reference as it is too voluminous to include;
Resolution No. ______

Page 2 of 4 ends

B. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15164, the FEIR is of continuing informational value;
C. Only minor or technical changes to the FEIR are necessary. Consequently, preparation of this Addendum pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15164 is appropriate.

SECTION 4: Findings and Conclusions. In considering the potential environmental impacts of the Project, the City Council finds:

A. The Project identifies a range of tentatively reserved property sites that could be developed to meet the City’s sixth cycle RHNA. Development, however, would occur in the same areas as those allowed in the Land Use Element of the General Plan, i.e., there would be no changes to the land use designations or land use maps and no change to the General Plan boundaries;
B. New dwelling units identified in the Project would not adversely affect impacts related to wildfire in the General Plan Area to a greater extent than buildout under the General Plan and analyzed in the FEIR. Accordingly, impacts would remain less than significant, i.e., the same as impacts identified in the 2019 General Plan EIR; C. The Safety and Community Services Element Update would update information related to hazards and would provide policies related to risk reduction, emergency preparedness, and evacuation and would therefore not have adverse impacts; D. The housing units identified under the Housing Element update to satisfy the City’s RHNA obligation are within the growth allowed under the General Plan and assessed in the FEIR.

E. The Safety and Community Services Element Update and Environmental Justice Element would update or add information and goals, policies, and objectives to be consistent with California law and would not change growth assumptions or buildout assessed in the FEIR;
F. The Project would not result in new or more severe impacts (direct or indirect) than were analyzed in the FEIR. The PROJECT would not result in impacts (direct or indirect) beyond those addressed or analyzed in the FEIR, nor would the Project present new information that shows new or more severe impacts than those described in the FEIR. Consequently, the Project is within the scope of the FEIR and no additional environmental assessment is required.

SECTION 5: Actions. The City Council approves the Addendum to the FEIR which is incorporated by reference and available in the link provided in Section 3 of this resolution.

Except as updated by the Addendum, the FEIR remains unamended.

SECTION 6: Reliance on Record . Each and every one of the findings and determinations in this Resolution are based on the competent and substantial evidence, both oral and Resolution No. ______

written, contained in the entire record relating to the City Council and applicable law. The findings and determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of the City Council in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole.

SECTION 7: Summaries of Information. All summaries of information in the findings, which precede this Section, are based on the substantial evidence in the record including, without limitation, verbal and documentary evidence submitted to the Successor Agency.

The absence of any fact from any such summary is not an indication that a particular finding is not based in part on that fact.

SECTION 8: Electronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

SECTION 9: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption and will remain effective unless repealed or superseded.

ELEMENT OF TO MONTEREY PARK GENERAL PLAN
The City Council of the City of Monterey Park does resolve as follows:

SECTION 1. The City Council finds and declares that:

A. The Interim City Planner prepared an amendment to the Housing Element of the Monterey Park General Plan (the “Housing Element” or “Project”). Because of its volume, the Housing Element is available for public review at https://www.montereypark.ca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/12599/Housing- Element_CityCouncilDraft_011322-1
While not attached to this Resolution as an exhibit, the Project is nevertheless incorporated by reference as if fully set forth;
B. In addition, the Interim City Planner reviewed the Project’s environmental impacts under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”);
C. The Interim City Planner completed review and scheduled a public hearing regarding the Project before the City Council for January 19, 2022. Notice of the public hearing was posted and mailed as required by the Monterey Park Municipal Code (“MPMC”); D. January 19, 2022, the City Council opened the public hearing to receive public testimony and other evidence regarding the proposed Project including, without limitation, information provided to the City Council by City staff and public testimony, and representatives of the Applicant;
E. This Resolution and its findings are made based upon the entire administrative record including, without limitation, testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at its January 19, 2022 public hearing including, without limitation, the staff report submitted by the Interim City Planner.

SECTION 2. Planning Agency. Pursuant to MPMC § 2.56.020(A), the City Council will act as the Monterey Park Planning Agency for purposes of considering the Project.

SECTION 3. Factual Findings and Conclusions. The City Council finds that the following facts exist and makes the following conclusions:

A. As noted comprehensively within the Project, the City solicited public input for completing the Project over a period of 10 months;
B. Additionally, the City sought review and comment from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) as contemplated by the California Resolution No. ______

Page 2 of 3 ends

Legislature and required by California law. A draft was provided to HCD on October 27, 2021;
C. The City's share of the regional housing need was established at 5,257 units in the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) Plan prepared and adopted by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) on March 4, 2021. The allocation establishes the number of new units needed, by income category, to accommodate Monterey Park’s assigned housing needs during the 2021-2029 planning period.

D. The 2021 Housing Element Update identifies residential sites adequate to accommodate a variety of housing types for all income levels and needs of special population groups, defined under California law (Government Code § 65583).

E. No rezoning of sites or formal land use changes or physical development is proposed at this time. Future changes would require environmental evaluation as potential impacts are location-specific and cannot be assessed in a meaningful way until a project site and development proposal are identified.

SECTION 4. Environmental Assessment. The findings and conclusions of Resolution No. ______, adopted January 19, 2022, are incorporated by reference. As set forth in that Resolution, the Addendum fully analyzes the environmental impacts of the Project for purposes of CEQA.

SECTION 5. Approval The City Council approves the Housing Element. If required by law, the City Manager, or designee, is directed to submit the Project to the State of California for certification.

SECTION 6. Delegation of Authority . The City Manager is authorized to make clerical corrections; minor technical changes; and other non-substantive edits to the Housing Element, in a form approved by the City Attorney, to ensure the Housing Element receives final certification from the State of California. Unless substantive changes are required, no additional City Council action is required to ratify such changes.

SECTION 7. Reliance on Record. Each and every one of the findings and determinations in this Resolution are based on the competent and substantial evidence, both oral and written, contained in the entire record relating to the project. The findings and determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of the City Council in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole.

SECTION 8. Limitations. The City Council’s analysis and evaluation of the project is based on the best information currently available. It is inevitable that in evaluating a project that absolute and perfect knowledge of all possible aspects of the project will not exist. One of the major limitations on analysis of the project is the City Council’s lack of knowledge of future events. In all instances, best efforts have been made to form accurate assumptions.

Somewhat related to this are the limitations on the City's ability to solve what are in effect Resolution No. ______

regional, state, and national problems and issues. The City must work within the political framework within which it exists and with the limitations inherent in that framework.

SECTION 9. Summaries of Information. All summaries of information in the findings, which precede this section, are based on the substantial evidence in the record. The absence of any particular fact from any such summary is not an indication that a particular finding is not based in part on that fact.

SECTION 10. Electronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.
