AGENDA ITEM NO:

TO: T
he Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Maychelle Yee, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Amending Resolution No. 12195 Governing Procedures for City Council Reorganization and Rotating Mayoral Responsibilities
RECO
MMENDATION:

It
is recommended that the City Council consider:
(1) Adopting a resolution amending Resolution Nos. 12155 and 12195 Governing Procedures for City Council Reorganization and Rotating Mayoral Responsibilities; and
(2) Take such additional, related, action that may be desirable.

EXECU
TIVE SUMMARY:

On S
eptember 16, 2020, the City Council a mended Resolution No. 12155 and adopted Resolution No. 12195 memorializing actions taken by City Council and establishing procedures for City Council reorganization and rotating mayoral responsibilities. The draft resolution amends Resolution Nos. 12155 and 12195 to clarify the rotation order and set subsequent appointments of mayor and mayor pro tempore . No other changes are proposed.

BACKGRO
UND:

In 1
982, the City Council established a policy giving each City Councilmember an opportunity to be Mayor at least once during their term. That policy established a nine month and two week mayoral term for each Councilmember.

In 1
994, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9921 which temporarily established an 11 month and two week mayoral term until January 1999. This was implemented in order to accommodate the City’s change in election dates caused by California law. After January 1999, the mayor rotation reverted to the original nine month and two week term established in 1982.

In 2
012, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 11507. That Resolution established a mayoral term which was 41 weeks. Section 6 of Resolution No. 11507 provides that “[b]y affirmative vote of not less than four members of the Council, the provisions of this resolution may be suspended, and any member of the Council may be appointed to the position of Mayor or Mayor Pro Tempore for a fixed or indeterminate term or terms.” Consent Calendar - 3D

Staff Report
January 18, 2023

On May 31, 2019, the City’s former at -large election system for City Council switched to district elections. The City’s first district- based election occurred on March 3, 2020 for Districts 2, 3, and 4.

Three individuals were elected to the City Council on March 3, 2020. In May and September 2020, the City Council adopted Resolutions temporarily amending the mayoral rotation schedule based upon the COVID -19 Pandemic emergency. When it amended the mayoral rotation schedule in 2020, however, the City Council did not anticipate that changes in California law would cause the municipal election to change from March 2022 to November 2022. The mayoral rotation schedule was not updated to reflect that change in election cycle.

This Resolution is intended to reconcile the City Council’s long-standing policy regarding mayoral rotation with changes to the municipal elections resulting from California law and the COVID-19 Pandemic

RESOLUTION NO. 12155
A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING PROCEDURES FOR CIry COUNCIL
REORGANIZATION AND ROTATING MAYORAL RESPONSIBILITIES.

The Council of the City of Monterey Park does resolve as follows SECTION 1: Findings. The City Council finds as follows:
ln 1982, the City Council established a policy for mayoral rotation that gave each member of the City Council an opportunity to be Mayor at least once during their term. Resolution No. 8584 creates a nine month and two week mayoral term for each Councilmember.
ln 1994, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9921 which temporarily established an 1 1 month and two week mayoral term until January 1999.

This was implemented in order to accommodate the City's change in election dates caused by California law. After January 1999, the mayor rotation reverted to the nine month and two week term established by Resolution No. 8584.
\n2012, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 11507. That Resolution established the current mayoral term which is 41 weeks. lt further amended Resolution Nos. 8585 and 9921 to conform with Resolution No 11507.

Section 6 of Resolution No. 1 1507 provides that "[b]y affirmative vote of not less than four members of the Council, the provisions of this resolution may be suspended, and any member of the Council may be appointed to the position of Mayor or Mayor Pro Tempore for a fixed or indeterminate term or terms."
On May 31,2019, the City's former at-large election system for City Council switched to district elections. ln accordance with Monterey Park Municipal Code ('MPMC") SS 2.04.060 to 2.04.090, the City's first district- based election occurred on March 3,2020 for Districts 2, 3, and 4.

Three individuals were elected to the City Council on March 3,2020.

Based upon the policy of Resolution No. 8584, individuals with the highest number of votes would be ranked for the order of mayoral appointment, i.e., the person with the highest number of votes would be ranked first.

The two incumbent Councilmembers elected under the at-large system will leave the City Council in 2022.

Resolution No. 12155

policy regarding mayoral rotation with the City's district-based election system that commenced in2020.

On March 11,2020, the City declared an emergency related to the COVID-19 Pandemic (ratified by Resolution No. 12142, adopted March 18,2020). As a result, most public meetings were cancelled in order to prolect public healtlr arrd safety.Any City Council meeting that is called is being held via electronic means in accordance with Executive Order No N-29-20 issued on March 17,2020. The current state of emergency makes it challenging for newly elected Councilmembers to immediately become Mayor or Mayor Pro Tempore.

On April 15,2020, the City Council - by minute order - reappointed Councilmember Hans Liang as Mayor and Councilmember Peter Chan as Mayor Pro Tempore. Their terms in those respective offices are determined by this Resolution.

At the April 1Sth meeting, the City Council also determined that the ranking of Councilmembers for the mayoral rotation would be as follows:

Councilmember Fred Sornoso (District 3);
Councilmember Henry Lo (District 4); and
Councilmember Yvonne Yiu (District 2)
This Resolution confirms this mayoral rotation; establishes the future terms for mayor and mayor pro tempore; and confirms the mayoral rotation for District 1 and 5.

SECTION 2: General Policy
The City Council will reorganize by selecting one of its members as Mayor and another as Mayor Pro Tempore in accordance with attached Exhibit "A," which is incorporated by reference (the "Mayoral Schedule"). As may be seen, the Mayoral Schedule provides that councilmembers will serve as Mayor for approximately every 41 weeks commencing on March 6, 2024. No additional action by the City Council is required for a councilmember to become Mayor under the Mayoral Schedule.

No person may be appointed Mayor unless he or she held the position of Mayor Pro Tempore immediately preceding such appointment.

As persons leave the City Council, the order of appointment will be modified in accordance with the Mayoral Schedule.

RESOLUTION NO. __

A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING PROCEDURES FOR CITY COUNCIL
REORGANIZATION AND ROTATING MAYORAL RESPONSIBILITIES.

The Council of the City of Monterey Park does resolve as follows:

SECTION 1: Fi ndings. The City Council finds as follows:

A. In 1982, the City Council established a policy for mayoral rotation that gave each member of the City Council an opportunity to be Mayor at least once during their term. Resolution No. 8584 created a nine month and two week mayoral term for each Councilmember.

B. In 1994, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9921 which temporarily established an 11 month and two week mayoral term until January 1999.

This was implemented in order to accommodate the City’s change in election dates caused by California law. After January 1999, the mayor rotation reverted to the nine month and two week term established by Resolution No. 8584.

C. In 2012, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 11507. That Resolution established a mayoral term which was 41 weeks. It further amended Resolution Nos. 8585 and 9921 to conform to Resolution No. 11507.

D. Section 6 of Resolution No. 11507 provides that “[b]y affirmative vote of not less than four members of the Council, the provisions of this resolution may be suspended, and any member of the Council may be appointed to the position of Mayor or Mayor Pro Tempore for a fixed or indeterminate term or terms.”

E. On May 31, 2019, the City’s former at-large election system for City Council switched to district elections. In accordance with Monterey Park Municipal Code (“MPMC”) §§ 2.04.060 to 2.04.090, the City’s first district- based election occurred on March 3, 2020 for Districts 2, 3, and 4.

F. Three individuals were elected to the City Council on March 3, 2020.

Based upon the policy of Resolution No. 8584, individuals with the highest number of votes would be ranked for the order of mayoral appointment, i.e., the person with the highest number of votes would be ranked first.

G. In 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution Nos. 12155 (May 6, 2020) and 12195 (September 16, 2020). These Resolutions temporarily amended the rotation schedule based upon the COVID-19 Pandemic emergency and at the request of Fred Sornoso, representing District 3.

H. When it amended the mayoral rotation schedule in 2020, the City Council did not anticipate that changes in California law would cause the municipal election to change from March 2022 to November 2022. The mayoral rotation schedule was not updated to reflect that change in election cycle.

I. This Resolution is intended to reconcile the City Council’s long-standing policy regarding mayoral rotation with changes to the municipal elections resulting from California law and the COVID-19 Pandemic.

SECTION 2: G
eneral Policy.

A. The City Council will reorganize by selecting one of its members as Mayor and another as Mayor Pro Tempore in accordance with attached Exhibit “A,” which is incorporated by reference (the “Mayoral Schedule”). As may be seen, the Mayoral Schedule provides that councilmembers will serve as Mayor for approximately every 41 weeks commencing February 19, 2024. No additional action by the City Council is required for a councilmember to become Mayor under the Mayoral Schedule.

B. No person may be appointed Mayor unless he or she held the position of Mayor Pro Tempore immediately preceding such appointment.

C. As persons leave the City Council, the order of appointment will be modified in accordance with the Mayoral Schedule.

D. If a reorganization is required by California law, the persons then serving as Mayor and Mayor Pro Tempore, if eligible, will be reappointed for the balance of the time remaining, if any, in those positions.

SECTION 3: C
urrent Organization. The Mayoral Schedule will determine the subsequent appointments of mayor and mayor pro tempore in this order:

1. D
istrict 3;

2. District 1;

3. District 5;

4. District 2; and

5. District 4.

SECTION 4: D
uties of Mayor and Mayor Pro Tempore.

A. In addition to any duties or obligations imposed by California law, the Monterey Park Municipal Code, or other policies adopted by the City

Council, the City Council delegates the following responsibilities to the Mayor:

1. Acting as the ceremonial head and spokesperson of all official, city- sponsored functions, events, and activities;

2. Effectively oversee and run the City Council meetings and preserve the order of these meetings; and

3. The Mayor is responsible for ensuring that the City Council’s policies and procedures are followed.

B. In the absence of the Mayor, the Mayor Pro Tempore/Vice Mayor acts as the Presiding Officer for City Council meetings. In the event both the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tempore/Vice Mayor are absent, then the most senior Council Member present acts as the temporary Presiding Officer.

However, upon the arrival of the Mayor or the Mayor Pro Tempore/Vice Mayor, the temporary Presiding Officer must immediately relinquish the chair upon the conclusion of the business immediately before the City Council.

SECTION 5: E
ffect of Reorganization. Any new procedures enacted by this Resolution supersede and replace any inconsistent terms, policies, or time period appearing in prior enacted resolutions, administrative regulations and written policies.

Other than such supersession, all sections of Resolution Nos. 8584, 9921, 11507, and 12155 remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 6: V
alidity. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the City Council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable.

SECTION 7: E
lectronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5 and Monterey Park Municipal Code Chapter 3.95. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

SECTION 8: E
ffectiveness. This Resolution will take effect immediately upon adoption.

DECLARATION OF EMERGENCY

The City Manager finds:

Pursuant to Monterey Park Municipal Code § 2.52.060(a)(1), a local emergency is proclaimed to exist within the City of Monterey Park beginning on January 8, 2023.

Starting January 1, 2023, severe winter storms related to a series of atmospheric river syst ems struck Southern California bringing substantial precipitation, resulting in the over saturation of city roads, mountains, and hillsides . As such, extreme hazardous conditions exist which pose potential harm to the safety of persons and property.

The foregoing conditions constitute the existence of conditions presenting a potential threat to the safety of persons and property within the City of Monterey Park, which conditions are likely to be beyond the control of the services, personnel, equipment and facilities of the City and require the combined forces of other political subdivisions to combat.

During the existence of said local emergency the powers, functions, and duties of the emergency organization of the City of Monterey Park will be those prescribed by state law, by ordinances, and resolutions of the City of Monterey Park.

LUTION ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL FOR THE CITY OF

MONTEREY PARK CONFIRMING THE EXISTENCE OF A LOCAL
EMERGENCY.

BE
IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Monterey Park as follows:

SECTION 1: The City Council finds as follows:

A. On or about January 4, 2023, the California Governor declared a statewide emergency based upon preciptation – both rain and snow – resulting from
so-called “atmospheric rivers” fueling multiple storms (the “2023 Winter Storms”).

B. Thereafter, on January 8, 2023, the President issued an emergency order declaring certain California counties, including Los Angeles County, to be federal disaster areas and giving instructions to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) to coordinate all disaster relief efforts to alleviate the hardship and suffering caused by the emergency on the local populati
on and to provide appropriate assistance to save lives; protect property,
public health and safety; and to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe.

C. The 2023
Winter Storms are causing extreme peril to the safety of persons
and property.

D. The dangers
presented by the 2023 Winter Storms caused the City
Manager
to proclaim the existence of a local emergency beginning on January 8, 2023 in accordance with the Monterey Park Municipal Code (“MPMC”) as specified in attached Exhibit “A” (“Declaration of Emergency”).

E. Based upon information provided to the City Council by the City Manager including,
without limitation, set forth in the staff report accompanying this Resolution
, it is apparent that local resources are unable to completely cope with the effects of this emergency.

SECTION 2: The City Council has reviewed the state of the community and ratifies the City Manager’s Declaration of Emergency including, without limitation, the Emergency Policies and Procedures for Mass Gatherings.

SECTION 3: In accordance with MPMC Chapter 2.52, and applicable law, the City Council declares that due to the 2023 Winter Storms a local emergency exists within the City of Monterey Park’s territorial limits.

SECTION 4: The City Manager, as the Director of Emergency Services, is empowered to carry out all emergency powers conferred upon him/her as the Emergency Services Director by local and state laws, and by all other lawful authority, as may be necessary to protect life and property.

SECTION 5: D
uring the existence of this local emergency, the powers, functions, and duties of the Emergency Services Director and the emergency organization of this City will be those prescribed by state law, by ordinance, and resolutions of this City approved by the City Council.

SECTION 6
: Since local resources are unable to cope with the effects of this emergency, the City Council directs the Emergency Services Director to forward a copy of this resolution to the Governor of California.

SECTION 8
: The City Manager is designated as the authorized representative for public assistance and as the authorized representative for individual assistance of the City of Monterey Park for the purpose of receiving, processing, and coordinating all inquiries and requirements necessary to obtain available state and federal assistance.

SECTION 9
: This local emergency will continue to exist until otherwise determined by City Council Resolution.

SECTION 10
: Validity. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the City Council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable.

SECTION 11: E
lectronic Signatures. This Resolution may be executed with electronic signatures in accordance with Government Code §16.5 and Monterey Park Municipal Code Chapter 3.95. Such electronic signatures will be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature.

AGENDA ITEM NO:

TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Shawn Igoe, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Amendment to United Storm Water Inc. Agreement 2309 -A, and Award of Contract for Catch Basin Maintenance
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Authorizing the City Manager to execute the First Amendment, in a form approved by the City Attorney, to Agreement No. 2309- A with United Storm Water , Inc., to retrofit an additional 100 catch basins with Connector Pipe Screens in the amount of $90,000 including labor and 15% contingency;

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute a three-year Maintenance Agreement with an option to extend for an additional two one-year terms, in a form approved by the City Attorney, with United Storm Water, Inc, in an amount of $60,000 per year with annual CPI increases, for the maintenance of all City-owned catch basins and retrofitted County owned catch basins with Connector Pipe Screen (CPS) Units.

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

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act):

Since the proposed work is a minor alteration to an existing public facility, this project is Class 1 Categorically Exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On June 2022, City Council approved a Public Works contract with United Storm Water, Inc., to install Connector Pipe Screen (CPS) units at 130 catch basin locations throughout the City. The Public Works contract was for a total amount of $99,450, and contingency up to $9,945 or 10% of the contract amount. To reach the City’s 99% trash discharge reduction goal, the City’s Stormwater Program consultant, John L. Hunter determined that retrofitting an additional 100 catch basins will be required. Staff recommends amending the current agreement with United Storm W ater for the installation of an additional 100 CPS units, increasing the approved contract amount from $109,395 to $199,395.

Furthermore, the City is currently responsible for maintaining all City owned catch basins by conducting routine inspections and cleaning to avoid flooding issues. Once the CPS units are installed, the City will also be responsible for maintaining the retrofit device and county-owned catch basin per the County of Los Angeles Maintenance Standards. Staff recommends the award of a maintenance contract to United Storm Water for the Consent Calendar - 3H

inspection and cleaning of retrofitted County owned catch basins and all City owned catch basins. The proposed agreement would be for three years with the option to extend for two one-year terms. The estimated term cost for services is $60,000 per year, with annual CPI increases.

BACKGROUND
Per the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) MS4 permit, the City is required to conduct a trash study every summer in order to demonstrate that it is achieving a reduction in trash discharge of 99% or greater from the baseline load. Based on the state’s formula, the City is currently at 98.2% and should be at 99% to meet the state mandate of trash reduction. All City owned catch basins are currently fitted with a Connector Pipe Screen retrofit device. The Connector Pipe Screen (CPS) units prevent trash and debris from entering the storm drain system during dry weather and moderate storm flows by keeping the trash and debris inside the catch basin. In order to meet 99% trash reduction target, the City can also retrofit LA County-owned catch basins located within the City with CPS devices.

In June 2022, the City awarded a public works contract to United Storm Water to install CPS units in 130 county-owned catch basins. The work included cleaning of the existing catch basins and installing CPS units following LA County standards. United Storm Water CPS Unit specifications are one of the few approved by LA County. Staff recommends amending United Storm Water, Inc.’s agreement, for the installation of CPS Units at an additional 100 catch basins. The proposed cost for the additional work will use the same unit prices presented in United Storm Water, Inc.’s previous bid submitted on May 2022.

Considering ongoing increased labor and material costs for public works projects, amending United Storm Water’s Agreement to add CPS units results in cost savings for the City. If approved, the City would work with the County to update its existing permit to add the proposed locations.

Maintenance

In order to obtain LA County permits to install CPS Units at County-owned catch basins , the City entered into Agreement 2301-A with the Los Angeles County which requires the City to inspect and maintain the catch basins with the newly installed CPS Units following Los Angeles County Flood Control District Catch Basin Trash Excluder Maintenance Standards. The county requires one inspection during Dry Season (May- Sept) and 7 inspections, once per month, during Storm Season (Oct- Apr), and cleaning as needed.

The City received a proposal from United Storm Water to conduct maintenance services as required by the county for both county-owned and City owned catch basins. Its maintenance services would include inspection and cleaning, as needed, prior to storm events to avoid flooding along City roads.

Entering into an agreement with United Storm Water for maintenance services would provide the best value in price and qualification to the City as they have already fully inventoried and inspected the City’s catch basin system as part of their original scope of

FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for installation of additional CPS units is available through Measure W funds.

These funds are budgeted in the FY22-23 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) as Project No. 96033. There is no impact to the General Fund.
