Code Regs. § 15308); (2) there is no possibility that the ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment (14 Cal.

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

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act):

The City reviewed the environmental impacts of the project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq. “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regs. §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA

Page 5 of 213 ends

Guidelines”). An initial study was prepared in accordance with the CEQA Guidelines § 15063 (“IS”) which shows that, if mitigated, the Project would not cause any significant environmental impacts. Accordingly, pursuant to CEQA § 21091, the City prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (“MND”) of environmental impacts. Based on the IS findings, and with proposed mitigation measures for cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials and tribal cultural resources, the project would not result in significant environmental impacts.

The IS and MND, and a notice of intent to adopt the IS and MND was prepared, circulated, and made available for public review between Thursday, October 31, 2024, and Monday, December 2, 2024. During this period, the City received five comment letters stating concerns with the proposed project. Comments were received from Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts, Advocates for the Environment, Coalition for Responsible Equitable Economic Development Los Angeles (“CREED LA”), California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division, and the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The Director of Community Development considered all comments, determined that the comments did not constitute substantial evidence of a potentially significant impact, and while not required by CEQA, provided responses to those concerns. Therefore, no further environmental review is required. The MND, Response to Comments and other CEQA documents can be found in Attachment 1, Exhibit C and on the City website at https://www.montereypark.ca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/18325/11-19-2025-1977-Saturn- Data-Center-Project-ISMND

City Council Staff Report

Date: December 3, 2025
Agenda Item Number: 8.A.

To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Karl Berger , City Attorney
Subject: Consider nuisance abatement at 795 W. Garvey and provide direction to the City Manager and City Attorney regarding whether to demolish the existing structures and bring the property into compliance with the City's vacant lot regulations or rehabilitate the structure to complete construction.

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Receiving and filing the status of nuisance abatement at 795 W. Garvey;

2. Directing the City Manager and City Attorney to either (a) demolish the structure and bring the property into compliance with the City's vacant lot regulations; or (b) rehabilitate the existing structure and complete its construction; or

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

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act):

Either action is exempt from additional environmental review pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(4) and CEQA Guidelines sections 15269, 15301, 15304, and 15321.

Executive Summary:

On September 19, 2025, the City issued an abatement warrant for 795 W. Garvey. It was executed on September 29th. Since that time, the City undertook several actions including (1) installing the sidewalk along Atlantic Blvd.; (2) inspecting the property; (3) attempting to obtain the Low Impact Development (LID) system to install on the property; and (4) retaining a general contractor to complete construction of the property. Unfortunately, the property owners have not cooperated with the City. Additionally, the testimony during the public nuisance hearing was inaccurate; this property is far from being completed and will require substantial rehabilitation. While the City expanded the abatement warrant in anticipation of the additional construction work, the costs for completing construction require further City Council consideration. Demolishing the structure and bringing the property into compliance with the City's vacant lot regulations will cost a fraction of the predicted rehabilitation and construction costs.

Background:

Since obtaining an abatement warrant in September of this year, the City moved to inspect the

Page 8 of 213 ends

condition of the property and seek a general contractor that could complete construction.

Additionally, the City has been delayed by the property owners' interference with the City's efforts in obtaining various infrastructure needed to complete construction.

Because this is a nuisance abatement project, the City is not required to bid the project. City representatives, however, did obtain quotes from two independent general contractors that could complete construction of the existing building. Both of these contractors provided a preliminary cost of between $1.5M to $1.7M to complete the project. This is in contrast to the testimony provided to the City Council on September 17, 2025 by the property owners' purported general contractor: "Q: In your view, how much is left to finish the project cost-wise? A: From this point on, I would say maybe half a million to three-quarter, max. So, $500,000 to $750,000 on the outside. That’s the cost."

Note that the property owners’ contractor also stated that before entering into a signed agreement with the property owner (on September 16, 2025) that he served as a “consultant” to “help” the property owners as needed. By all accounts, this purported general contractor had limited experience with the property and its true condition when he testified as to the cost of completing construction.

Now that the City has entered the property and found its true condition, the higher cost estimates appear to be based upon a more complete evaluation of the condition of the property discovered after taking possession. These include the following challenges:
• The roof needs to be completely removed and replaced to meet code requirements, as flashing and other components are missing and parts have been exposed to weather damage for years.
• There is evidence of at least some mold related to the defective roof. An abatement company must now test for mold throughout the project, remove or encapsulate it, and provide a clearance report before any work on the structure begins. • The HVAC platforms need to be rebuilt to meet the required height of 6-8 inches. • The grease interceptor was installed incorrectly and must be redone to meet code requirements.
• Electrical work must be redone to meet code requirements, including panel and wiring completion.
• The fire sprinkler system requires room construction before completion, and the connection to the fire hydrant needs verification.
• Plumbing rough-in needs verification, especially where drain lines were installed after concrete pouring.
• The fire alarm and security system require plans for proper installation.

After receiving these cost estimates and being informed of the above (partial) list of construction challenges, the City Manager and City Attorney thought it prudent to provide both construction costs and demolition costs for comparison. It should also be noted that there are likely additional issues with the property that will not be discovered until construction is underway and which would increase the cost, potentially significantly.

For demolition, we have two estimates: $150K and $300K. The lower of the two would simply be for demolition; the higher includes demolition plus rehabilitation of the property to comply

Page 9 of 213 ends

with the City's vacant land regulations (Monterey Park section 4.30.060). These require landscaping, ground cover, and fencing of the property. The time estimate for demolition is four to six weeks from the point of authorization. It is unclear how long construction would take as the complete list of construction challenges is not yet known.

Should the City Council choose demolition over construction, the City Attorney's office would seek a revised abatement warrant to ensure the City's actions are sanctioned by the court.

Strategic Plan Goal:

Goal 2: Maintain Stability of our City’s Fiscal and Human Resources.

Fiscal Impact:

Depending on the City Council's direction, abatement is anticipated to cost at least $1.6M to $2M; demolition itself is estimated at $300K including compliance with the City’s vacant lot ordinance.

On September 1, 2024, the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) took over the management of the SEMOU, including the transfer of all responsibility from EPA to DTSC. The City’s agreement with WQA expired on August 31, 2024. To continue receiving reimbursement for treatment costs (now through DTSC), the City would need to enter into a new agreement with WQA.

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Authorizing the City Manager to execute the Agreement with the San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority (WQA), in a form approved by the City Attorney, for the operation of the South El Monte Operable Unit (SEMOU) Treatment Facility;

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

Each year, the Foundation challenges men to grow mustaches during Movember (formerly known as November) to spark conversations and raise critical funds for its men’s health programs.

The mustaches serve as a symbol of awareness, encouraging men to prioritize annual checkups for prostate and testicular health. As a mustache grows, it becomes a conversation starter, spreading awareness and educating communities about the health issues men face. The Vision of the Movember Foundation is to create a lasting impact on the face of men’s health worldwide.

11.A. Adopt a Resolution to Cast Votes for a City Member to the San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority Board
The San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority ("SGBWQA") was established by the State Legislature under Senate Bill 1679 in 1992 to develop, finance, and implement groundwater treatment programs in the San Gabriel Valley. The SGBWQA is under the direction and leadership of a 7-member board consisting of the following: one member of each of the three overlying municipal water districts, one from a city with prescriptive water pumping rights, one from a city without prescriptive water pumping rights, and two representing water producers in the San Gabriel Basin.

According to the bylaws of the SGBWQA, a city with prescriptive water pumping rights, of which Monterey Park falls under, may nominate and elect a City Member to the Water Quality Authority Board. All votes cast must be for only one candidate.

Each City with pumping rights has one vote for each 10,000 residents or the majority thereof, as determined by the U.S. Census Data. The City of Monterey Park has six votes to be cast.

This election is to fill the vacancy of the Board Member representing cities with pumping rights. The election will take place at the SGBWQA's regular meeting on Wednesday, December 17, 2025.

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Adopting a resolution voting for a City Member to represent cities with prescriptive pumping rights on the Board of the San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority;

2. Directing the City Clerk to send a copy of the Resolution to the San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority to receive no later than December 16, 2025, at 12:00 p.m.;

Date: December 3, 2025
Agenda Item Number: 9.C.

To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Timothy Hou, Director of Community Development
Jason Hing, Fire Chief
Subject: Adopt a resolution authorizing a Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions for the Purchase of Real Property commonly known as 810 Monterey Pass Road (Assessor's Parcel Number 5252-003-043)

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

1. Adopting Resolution No. xxx authorizing the City Manager to execute all agreements and related documents necessary to acquire the real property commonly known as 810 Monterey Pass Road, in a form approved by the City Attorney, and amending the budget for Fiscal Year 2025-26 to appropriate $258,000 from the General Fund; and

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

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act):

The Director of Community Development (“Director”) reviewed the environmental impacts of the proposed land acquisition project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq. “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regs. §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”). CEQA does not apply where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. This activity involves the acquisition of real property for a future public use by the City. Any future use and development of the site will be independently reviewed under CEQA. Accordingly, no further environmental review is required.

Executive Summary:

To address a previously identified need to improve aging public safety infrastructure, the Director conducted a search for a suitable site near the existing Fire Station 63. The Director recommends adopting a resolution authorizing the City Manager to approve a purchase and sale agreement and escrow instructions ("Agreement") to purchase the real property commonly known as 810 Monterey Pass Road, Monterey Park, California 91754.

Background:

The City previously identified a need to improve aging public safety infrastructure to meet growing demands for public safety service. Consequently, the Director searched for possible

Page 29 of 213 ends

sites and funding to enhance public safety services with an emphasis on the existing Fire Station 63 currently operating at 704 Monterey Pass Road.

On August 27, 2025, the City and JRL LLC, a California limited liability company (“Seller”), entered negotiations for the purchase and sale of real property located at 810 Monterey Pass Road (“Site”). On November 20, 2025, the City and the Seller reached tentative agreement on proposed deal terms including a purchase price of $5,250,000.

The Monterey Park Fire Department currently operates Fire Station 63, approximately ¼ mile east of the Site. Fire Station 63 was built in 1958 and is staffed by 3 firefighters 24 hours per day. The 63,109 sq. ft. (1.44 acres) site includes a 2,675 sq. ft. station building, telecommunications equipment, water pumps serving the Water Division, and parking for various Fire Department vehicles including ambulances, a fire engine and an urban search and rescue vehicle. Photos of the existing Fire Station 63 illustrate a lack of critical space and infrastructure needed to meet the needs of current and future Fire operations (Attachment 3).

The Site is a larger rectangular lot consisting of approximately 80,581 sq. ft. (1.85 acres) of land located on the southeast side of Monterey Pass Road, between Davidson Drive and Vagabond Drive (Assessor’s Parcel No. 5252-003-043). The Site is currently improved with an approximately 21,470 sq. ft. commercial industrial building and associated asphalt or concrete paved area, landscaped areas, and utilities. An aerial map identifying the Site is included (Attachment 3).

The City Manager negotiated an agreement between the City and the Seller for the as-is sale of the Site for an agreed upon purchase price of $5,250,000, with estimated transaction closing costs and expenses of $8,000, for a sum of $5,258,000. The Director conducted the following due diligence within the escrow timeframe outlined in the Agreement:
• Completed Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Report. • Completed Due Diligence Limited Site Investigation including, without limitation, the following work:
o Geophysical survey
o Soil borings and soil sampling
o Groundwater sampling
o Sub slab soil gas sampling
o Indoor and outdoor air sampling procedures
• Reviewed preliminary title report and property condition disclosure reports.

The City has not yet determined the nature and extent of the potential public improvements that might ultimately occupy the Site. Due to its favorable proximity to the existing Fire Station 63, layout, and existing improvements, the Site may be suitable for a future replacement fire station. However, there are currently no future use plans developed and other uses to support City services may also be considered.

General Plan and Zoning Designation:

The Site is located within the Office Professional Non-McCaslin Business Park (O-P) Zone and has a General Plan Land Use Designation of “Innovation/Technology.” Uses for Innovation/Technology include research and development, light manufacturing, service

Page 30 of 213 ends

commercial, professional offices, entertainment, breweries/wineries/distilleries, trade and technical schools, public utilities, and similar uses per zoning regulations. Pursuant to Table

21.12 (A) in the M.P.M.C., permitted uses in the O-P Zone include government or public facilities. Additionally, government or public facility is broadly defined in M.P.M.C. § 21.04.437 as “offices or uses established by any governmental or public entity which are established to provide direct service to the public at a particular location.”

Strategic Plan Goal:

Purchase of this Site satisfies the 2025-26 Strategic Plan Goal No. 4 to “Maintain, Build and Modernize Infrastructure and Facilities to Support the Current and Future Needs of Our City Community,” by continuing public facility improvements with an emphasis on Fire Station 63.

Furthermore, acquisition of property to site a future replacement fire station satisfies the 2025- 26 Strategic Plan Goal No. 1 to “Ensure Public Safety with a Modernized and Community- Oriented Approach.”

Fiscal Impact:

The purchase will be funded through financing secured via a $2,000,000 AB102 grant and $3,250,000 from the General Fund. For this purpose, the Director is requesting a budget amendment of $258,000 to appropriate to account number 1015002-5501-95049. This amount is intended to cover the cost of the purchase price, escrow closing costs and expenses, for a total of $5,258,000.

RESOLUTION NO. ____

A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE

ALL AGREEMENTS AND RELATED DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO
ACQUIRE THE REAL PROPERTY COMMONLY KNOWN AS 810

MONTEREY PASS ROAD, IN A FORM APPROVED BY THE CITY
ATTORNEY, AND AMEND THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025 -26 TO APPROPRIATE $258,000 FROM THE GENERAL FUND.

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

SECTION 1: The City Council finds as follows:

A. The City of Monterey Park (“City”) negotiated to acquire the real property commonly known as 810 Monterey Pass Road (Assessor's Parcel Number 5252- 003-043) (the “Property”) from JRL LLC, a California limited liability company (“Seller”) for a purchase price of $5,250,000, with estimated transaction closing costs and expense of $8,000, for a sum of $5,258,000.

B. The purchase of Property will be partially funded through a $2,000,000 grant pursuant to AB102, and $3,258,000 from the General Fund.

C. The City 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 Cal. Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”).

D. The City and Seller desire to enter into a purchase and sale agreement for the Property.

SECTION 2: Environmental Assessment. Adopting this Resolution is exempt from further environmental review 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”). Acquisition of the Property (by itself) does not have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment. Consequently, it is categorically exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3) as CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment.

SECTION 3: Notice of Exemption. The Director of Community Development, or designee, is directed to file a Notice of Exemption in accordance with CEQA §§ 15062 , and any other applicable law.

SECTION 4: Authorizations. The City Council authorizes the purchase of the Property from the Seller to the City upon payment by City of $5,250,000, with estimated transaction closing costs and expense of $8,000, for a sum of $5,258,000. In order to effectuate that conveyance, the Mayor and City Manager are authorized to execute all documents, in a form approved by the City Attorney, needed to implement the conveyance of the Property as contemplated by this Resolution including, without limitation, escrow instructions, the grant deed, closing statement, and the certificate of acceptance. The City Manager is further authorized to accept the grant deed and cause them to be recorded in the Office of the County Recorder of the County of Los Angeles.

SECTION 5: The City Manager, or designee, is directed to amend the Fiscal Year 2025- 26 Budget to appropriate $258,000 to Account Number 1015002- 5501-95049 for this property acquisition.

SECTION 6: Severability. 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: Construction. This Resolution must be broadly construed to achieve the purposes stated in this Resolution. It is the City Council’s intent that the provisions of this Resolution be interpreted or implemented by the City and others in a manner that facilitates the purposes set forth in this Resolution.

SECTION 8: 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 9: 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 were made to form accurate assumptions. Somewhat related to this are the limitations on the Ci ty’s ability to solve what are in effect 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 10: 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 11: Effective Date. This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.

SECTION 12: 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 13: Recordation. The Mayor, or presiding officer, is authorized to affix its signature to this Resolution signifying its adoption by the City Council, and the City Clerk, or its duly appointed deputy, is directed to attest.

PASSED AND ADOPTED this 3
rd day of December, 2025.
