Date: December 17, 2024
SUBJECT: AMENDING THE COMPREHENSIVE SALARY SCHEDULE TO MEET THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS TITLE 2, SECTION 570.5

BACKGROUND
The California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 2, Section 570.5 requires a consolidated Salary Schedule that is publicly available showing all City classifications and salary ranges. As a contributing member of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS), the City of Paramount is subject to statutory and regulatory requirements for Public Agencies. The Public Employees' Retirement Law (PERL), the Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) and the California Code of Regulations (CCR) require that public agencies contracting with CalPERS, adopt a publicly available pay schedule to provide the base information for determining pensionable compensation. CalPERS has also provided guidance through the issuance of Circular Letter 200-003-20 which outlines the required elements under Title 2 of the CCR section 570.5 as follows:

For purposes of determining the amount of “compensation earnable” pursuant to Government Code Sections 20630, 20636, and 20636.1, pay rates shall be limited to the amount listed on a pay schedule that must meet all the following eight (8) requirements:

1. Be duly approved and adopted by the employer's governing body in accordance with requirements of applicable public meetings laws

2. Identify the position title for every employee position

3. Show the pay rate as a single amount or multiple amounts within a range for each identified position

4. Indicate the time base, including, but not limited to, whether the time base is hourly, daily, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, or annually

5. Be posted at the office of the employer or immediately accessible and available for public review from the employer during normal business hours or posted on the employer's website

6. Indicate an effective date and date of any revisions

7. Is retained by the employer and available for public inspection for not less than five years

8. Does not reference another document in lieu of disclosing the pay rate Agenda Report December 17, 2024
RESOLUTION NO. 24:041 Page 2

DISCUSSION
In order to obtain compliance with the CCR, the City must adopt a revised salary schedule that conforms to the legal requirements discussed above. Adoption of Resolution No. 24:041 is required for the salary schedule to be amended to a format that meets compliance. The exhibit contained within the attached resolution provides a new salary schedule in a revised format that more clearly labels each position and its corresponding salary ranges. The existing City salary schedule and position listing consisted of two separate documents which meant that the position titles and salary ranges were not listed on the same single document. There is no change to any employee salary amounts; the changes are only to the formatting to provide clearer interpretation and transparency.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact, as there is no change to employee salaries.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Read by title only and adopt Resolution No. 24:041 amending the City comprehensive salary schedule to meet the California Code of Regulation (CCR) Title 2, Section 570.5 requirements.

SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR INSTALLATION OF A DISABLED PARKING ZONE IN FRONT OF 7615 JEFFERSON STREET

BACKGROUND
Requests may be made to the Public Works Commission for installation of items such as disabled parking zones, limited-time parking zones, speed humps, and stop signs. Each of these traffic safety requests are required to meet a set of criteria specific to the requested item. These include a review by the City’s staff and traffic engineer, submission of an application and any additional requested materials to the Public Works Department, review for consideration by the Public Works Commission, and then review and approval by the City Council. Criteria for the approval of the installation of a disabled parking zone include the following:
□ Property shall not have any on-site parking available to the disabled person via an ADA-accessible driveway or garage.
□ There is only one disabled parking zone allowed per block. □ Request must be made by the property owner or have the property owner’s consent via a signed letter in support of the application. □ Must submit a one-time non-refundable fee.
□ Subject to a bi-annual review and resubmittal of proof of valid disabled parking placard.

DISCUSSION
Staff received a request from Mr. Michael Alva for the installation of a disabled parking zone in front of the property located at 7615 Jefferson Street. Mr. Alva is the tenant and has received approval from the property owner, Ms. Lydia Guillen, to submit the blue curb zone parking request. The applicant is requesting that the disabled parking zone be installed in front of this property due to limited accessible parking options in the neighborhood.

Staff’s inspection found that neighborhood on-street parking can be limited throughout the day given that this property is located in a predominately industrial area. The property is located adjacent to an alleyway, which is used as a vehicle path of travel. The residence does have some off-street parking via a driveway and a garage; however, the driveway Agenda Report December 17, 2024
DISABLED PARKING ZONE – 7615 JEFFERSON STREET Page 2
and garage are too narrow to provide Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility to a vehicle.

If approved, the curb in front of 7615 Jefferson Street would be marked for disabled parking only. This parking zone will be available for use by anyone that possesses a valid disabled person placard.

At its November meeting, the Public Works Commission recommended that the City Council approve the request for the disabled parking zone. A notice indicating that the City Council would hear this item was sent to all properties on Jefferson St. from Minnesota Avenue to Illinois Avenue. Please see exhibits for the proposed disabled parking zone location and letters that were sent out regarding this request.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is additional fiscal impact to the City. Funding for this type of activity is included in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Public Works Roads Division budget utilizing General Funds.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the request for installation of a disabled parking zone in front of 7615 Jefferson Street.

□ Subject to a bi-annual review and resubmittal of proof of valid disabled parking placard.

DISCUSSION
Staff received a request from Mr. Catarino Gonzalez for the installation of a disabled parking zone in front of the property located at 13939 Ruther Avenue. Mr. Catarino is the property owner and applicant. The applicant is requesting that the disabled parking zone be installed in front of the property as there are multiple people in the household that have disabled parking placards and limited accessible parking options in the neighborhood.

Staff’s inspection found that parking is limited in this residential community. The residence does have some off-street parking via a driveway and garage; however, the driveway and garage are too narrow to provide Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility to multiple vehicles.

Date: December 17, 2024
SUBJECT: AGREEMENT WITH HAMILTON ARCHITECTS, INC. FOR DESIGN AND

ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES FOR THE PARAMOUNT SAW

COMMUNITY ROOMS AND MUSEUM PROJECT

BACKGROUND
As part of the Downtown Revitalization Project, the City’s goal is to attract business opportunities and enhance the City’s history and sense of community. In this effort, the City has researched ways to rehabilitate and preserve the Paramount Saw Property for a Historical Museum and community rooms as well as commercial restaurant purposes to support and create a vibrant community gathering space. Consistent with this vision, the City entered into an agreement with Paramount City Investors, LLC Development Group to contribute to the development of the Paramount Saw Property adjacent to City Hall. As part of the City’s contribution to development of the Paramount Saw building into a food court restaurant center, the City has been allocated 3,000 square feet of this space for the inclusion of a Paramount history museum and community meeting space. The museum would consist of open-access spaces that will be integrated within the food court area. The community meeting space would be a controlled-access space that would consist of an interior area with access to an outdoor area.

DISCUSSION
Hamilton Architects, Inc. is the design firm currently engaged by Paramount City Investors, LLC Development Group for the conceptual design of the food court, restaurant space, and outdoor areas at the Paramount Saw development project. The City requires the design of the tenant improvements to create a Paramount History Museum integrated into the food court area. Additionally, design of the community meeting space is required and will include a meeting room, dedicated restroom, mini-kitchen, storage, and appropriate ingress and egress to the adjacent outdoor space. The design of these tenant improvements is best served by the current architect working on the food court and restaurant space development for the Paramount City Investors, LLC Development Group.

The cost of the architectural design services for the History Museum and event/meeting rooms is projected to be $64,000, excluding a ten percent (10%) contingency for potential contract change orders. Total projected costs, including the ten percent (10%) Agenda Report December 17, 2024
HAMILTON ARCHITECTS INC., DESIGN SERVICES Page 2
contingency, totals $70,400. The City’s Municipal Code Section 3.12.080 exempts professional/technical services from bidding requirements. However, since the projected cost for the design services is over $40,000, City Council approval is required for the agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT
A total of $152,000 has been allocated for the architectural services for the Paramount Saw Community Meeting Rooms/Museum project in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Projects Budget. The total projected cost, including a ten percent (10%) contingency for contract change orders that may arise during the design process, amounts to $70,400 for the services from Hamilton Architects, Inc. Therefore, sufficient funding exists for the recommended action.

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No 2: Community Health - Provide diverse recreational and cultural amenities that support healthy lifestyles and a sense of community. 5: Attractive and Well-Maintained Infrastructure - Develop and maintain City-owned infrastructure, parks, facilities, and amenities that enhance quality of life and the attractiveness of the community.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Hamilton Architects, Inc., for a not to exceed amount of $70,400 for the design services of the Paramount Saw Community Meeting Rooms/Museum project commencing immediately and ending on June 30, 2025.

Furthermore, the requirements for coverage and limits shall be (1) the broader coverage and maximum limits specified in this contract; or (2) the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds available to the named insured; whichever is greater.
(ii) The limits of insurance required in the Agreement may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of the CITY (if agreed to in a written contract) before the CITY’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured. 6 (iii) The insurance provided by these policies shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty days written notice has been received by the CITY.
(c) Additional Insured. The CITY will be named as an additional insured on the general liability policy.
(ii) This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees. Any insurance maintained by the CITY, including any self-insured retention the City may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with it. (iii) The inclusion of more than one insured shall not operate to impair the rights of one insured against another insured, and the coverages afforded shall apply as though separate policies had been issued to each insured. (iv) The Additional Insured coverage under the ARCHITECT ’s policy shall be primary and non-contributory and will not seek contribution from the CITY’s insurance or self-insurance and shall be at least as broad as CG 20 01 04

At the option of CITY, either: the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insurance retention as respects the CITY, its officers, officials, agents, employees and volunteers; or ARCHITECT shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses.

Policies containing any self-insured (SIR) provision shall provide or be endorsed to provide that the SIR may be satisfied by either the named insured or the CITY. The CITY reserves the right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsements.

Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise later.

All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees, and volunteers or shall specifically allow ARCHITECT or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. ARCHITECT hereby waives its own right of recovery against CITY and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors.

Notice of cancellation. ARCHITECT agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide the CITY with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. If any of the ARCHITECT ’s insurers are 7 .
unwilling to provide such notice, then ARCHITECT shall have the responsibility of notifying the CITY immediately in the event of ARCHITECT ’s failure to renew any of the required insurance coverages, or insurer’s cancellation or non-renewal.

Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that ARCHITECT ’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.

Pass through clause. ARCHITECT agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party who is brought onto or involved in the project/service by ARCHITECT (hereinafter collectively “Subcontractor”), provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of ARCHITECT under this Agreement.

ARCHITECT agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. However, in the event ARCHITECT ’s Subcontractor cannot comply with this requirement, which proof must be submitted to the CITY, ARCHITECT may still be able to utilize the Subcontractor provided ARCHITECT shall be required to ensure that its Subcontractor provide and maintain insurance coverage and endorsements sufficient to the specific risk of exposure involved with Subcontractor’s scope of work and services, with limits less than required of the ARCHITECT , but in all other terms consistent with the ARCHITECT ’s requirements under this Agreement. This provision does not relieve the ARCHITECT of its contractual obligations under the Agreement and/or limit its liability to the amount of insurance coverage provided by its subcontractors. This provision is intended solely to provide ARCHITECT with the ability to utilize a Subcontractor who may be otherwise qualified to perform the work or services but may not carry the same insurance limits as required of the ARCHITECT under this Agreement given the limited scope of work or services provided by the Subcontractor.

CITY’s right to revise specifications. The CITY reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to request the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the ARCHITECT ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such request results in substantial additional cost to the ARCHITECT, the CITY and ARCHITECT may renegotiate ARCHITECT ’s compensation.

Timely notice of claims. ARCHITECT shall give CITY prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from ARCHITECT ’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

16. ORDINANCE PROHIBITING THE STORAGE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY

IN PUBLIC AREAS
Recommended Action: Read by title only, introduce
Ordinance No. 1190, and place it on the December 17, 2024 agenda for adoption.

To: Honorable City Council
From: John Moreno, City Manager
By: Margarita Matson, Public Safety Director
Steve Coumparoules, Project/Program
Manager
Date: November 12, 2024
SUBJECT: PROHIBITING THE STORAGE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY IN PUBLIC AREAS

BACKGROUND
The City of Paramount aims to maintain a safe, accessible, and aesthetically appealing public environment. In recent months, the accumulation of personal property in public spaces, including sidewalks, streets, parks, and other communal areas, has posed significant challenges to public safety, accessibility, and cleanliness. To address these concerns, staff proposes the adoption of an ordinance prohibiting the storage of personal property in public areas.

DISCUSSION
There are several reasons for the adoption of this ordinance:

1. Health and Safety Concerns
The storage of personal property on the public right-of-way introduces potential risks to the surrounding community. The contents of these items are often unknown and could include hazardous materials, dangerous or perishable items, and refuse. These unknowns can present safety hazards to any residents, visitors, or City personnel that come in contact with them. Additionally, improperly stored items can attract pests and result in the deterioration of public health and safety standards. A proactive ordinance prohibiting such storage would mitigate these risks and enhance overall public safety.

2. Encroachment on Public Spaces
Personal items stored in public areas encroach upon public spaces in an unpermitted manner and limit the functionality of sidewalks, streets, and parks. This encroachment can obstruct pedestrian and vehicular traffic, create tripping or accident hazards, and impede access for individuals with disabilities, in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This could cause individuals who are wheelchair bound to seek unsafe alternatives to sidewalk access, such as maneuvering onto the street. To ensure equitable use and safe accessibility of public spaces for all citizens, this ordinance is critical.

Agenda Report November 12, 2024
ORDINANCE NO. 1190 Page 2

3. Aesthetic and Cleanliness Concerns
The accumulation of personal items disrupts the City’s ability to maintain cleanliness standards and a uniform appearance in public spaces. These items contribute to visual blight, detract from the city’s aesthetic appeal, and undermine ongoing beautification efforts that uphold high maintenance standards and clutter-free environments.

Furthermore, unattended property often becomes unsightly, soiled, and unhygienic, creating challenges for City staff when it is not addressed promptly.

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization; establish priorities, uniformity, and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the Vision of a city that is safe, healthy, and attractive. This item aligns with Strategic Outcomes No. 1: Safe Community and No. 5: Attractive and Well-maintained Infrastructure.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Read by title only, introduce Ordinance No. 1190, and place it on the December 17, 2024 agenda for adoption.

SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF WORK FOR ALLEY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CITY PROJECT NO. 9434)

BACKGROUND
Included in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Capital Improvement Projects Budget was funding for alley improvements. Similar to our neighborhood streets program, alley repairs are planned based on the recommendations of the Pavement Management System, a report completed by Willdan Engineering. This report provided a comprehensive review of the condition of all city streets within Paramount boundaries and identified those streets and alleys in most need of repair.

On February 6, 2024, the Director of Public Works opened bids for the alley improvements project, and the project was awarded to Terra Pave, Inc. for $375,710 at the City Council meeting on March 26, 2024. A Notice to Proceed was issued with a start date of September 9, 2024.

DISCUSSION
The work performed under this contract has been inspected under the supervision of the Public Works Director, in conformance with Section 6-8 of the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction.

The project was completed on October 4, 2024, and the Notice of Completion will be filed with the Los Angeles County Recorder’s office after approval by the City Council. The contract retention of $19,946.42 will be held for thirty-five (35) days from that date.

Date: December 17, 2024
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO THE AGREEMENT WITH ADOPT A HIGHWAY

MAINTENANCE CORPORATION FOR ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY SERVICES

BACKGROUND
On January 24, 2023, the City Council approved an agreement with Adopt-A-Highway Maintenance Corporation to enhance the clean-up frequency at certain approved on ramps and off ramps to California highways and certain service roads. This cleaning service supplements Caltrans efforts, given that trash accumulates more quickly than Caltrans can provide clean-up service. More specifically, the service agreement covers the northbound I-710 Alondra Boulevard and Rosecrans Avenue entrances and exits, the westbound SR-91 Downey Avenue and Paramount Boulevard exits, as well as the I-105 service roads, Somerset Ranch Road North and South between Garfield Avenue and Paramount Boulevard. Caltrans had deemed these locations feasible for additional cleanups.

Subsequently, on June 27, 2023, City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to increase cleaning of Somerset Ranch Road (North and South) for a total of twice per month and allowed the Public Works Director or her designee to add additional services, on an asneeded basis, not to exceed $10,000 per year.

DISCUSSION
Due to the high amount of trash and debris that continues to accumulate along both sides of Somerset Ranch Road, staff is recommending two additional cleanings (for a total of four times a month cleaning frequency). The contractor provided an updated cost proposal along with the additional cleanings; the cost reflects a new total monthly cost of $5,593.

The following is a breakdown of the updated total monthly costs:

Original Contract: $ 2,930.00
Amendment No. 1: $ 512.10
Amendment No. 2: $ 2,150.90
TOTAL: $ 5,593.00
Agenda Report December 17, 2024
ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY AMENDMENT NO. 2 Page 2

FISCAL IMPACT
Funds were included in the FY 2024-25 Adopted General Fund budget under Landscape Maintenance and Operations to cover the cost at the original service level. Increasing the service level requires an additional funding appropriation of $23,250.

FY 24-25 revised annual service cost, plus $10,000 contingency: $ 64,210.60 FY 24-25 current budget for Adopt a Highway service: $ 41,000.00 Additional funding needed to cover expenses through 6/30/25: $ 23,210.60

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No 5: Attractive and WellMaintained Infrastructure - Develop and maintain City-owned infrastructure, parks, facilities, and amenities that enhance quality of life and the attractiveness of the community.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
1) Appropriate an additional $23,250 from the unallocated General Fund balance to the FY24-25 Public Works Landscape Maintenance and Operations budget; and 2) Approve Amendment No. 2 to the agreement with Adopt-A-Highway Maintenance Corporation for augmented Adopt-A-Highway services; and authorize the Mayor or her designee to sign the amendment.

From: John Moreno, City Manager

Date: December 17, 2024
SUBJECT: WATER WELL 16 FENCING

BACKGROUND
Fencing around the City's water well is essential to ensuring the protection and safety of both the water source and the surrounding community. Water Well 16 is a 3,400 gallons per minute (gpm) high capacity well that includes the required treatment systems to support the City’s potable water needs. The well will soon provide a vital resource for potable water needs. Increased security at this facility is critical. A block wall around the property was already constructed as part of the Water Well 16 project. However, what is now needed is the installation of wrought iron shepherd hooks around the property. The installation of 15 inches of fencing (shepherd hooks) on top of the existing block wall at the well site’s perimeter would further help deter unauthorized individuals or animals from entering the area, thereby reducing the potential for disturbances. The fencing installation will ensure compliance with water protection regulations and safeguard a critical resource that the community relies on.

DISCUSSION
On Thursday, October 31, 2024, the City published the Request for Proposals in the Paramount Journal and on the City’s website.

On Thursday, November 14, 2024, the Director of Public Works opened and examined the bids for the Water Well 16 Fencing project. The bids were opened at 11:00 AM at the City Yard.

One (1) bid was received and submitted by A&G Sales in the amount of $36,807.80.

The following is a breakdown of estimated total project costs:

Project: $ 36,807.80
Contingency (10%): $ 3,680.78
Total: $ 40,488.58
Agenda Report December 17, 2024
WATER WELL 16 FENCING Page 2

FISCAL IMPACT
The total project amount of $40,500 was not included in the FY24-25 budget. Therefore, the amount of $40,500 will need to be appropriated utilizing Water Funds.

Contractor agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth here in this section from each and every subcontractor, sub-tier contractor or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of contractor in the performance or subject matter of this agreement. In the event contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required here, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section.

Failure of CITY to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on CITY and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend CITY as set forth herein is binding on the successors, assigns, or heirs of Contractor and shall survive the termination of this agreement or this section.

SUBJECT: FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

AGREEMENT WITH GRUEN ASSOCIATES TO PREPARE

COMMERCIAL DESIGN GUIDELINES

BACKGROUND
In 2023, the City Council approved an agreement with Gruen Associates to develop the Commercial Design Guidelines update in an amount not to exceed $80,000. The project is intended to modernize the architectural guidelines for the Central Business District and other commercially zoned properties.

This item is a request to approve an amendment the professional services agreement with Gruen Associates in an amount not to exceed $8,500 for preparation of a comprehensive plant list.

DISCUSSION
In October, the Community Aesthetics Committee reviewed the Commercial Design Guidelines in progress. Committee members expressed a desire for more detailed landscaping guidelines to be incorporated into the guidelines. As the added detail is outside the present scope of work for the project, an amendment to the agreement is required.

This more comprehensive service will ensure that the plant selections align with the community’s design standard expectations and sustainability goals. A detailed plant list (trees, shrubs, groundcover, mulch, etc.) will support consistent and attractive landscaping while considering site-specific needs, climate adaptability, and long-term maintenance.

Pursuant to Chapter 3.12 Purchasing of Supplies and Equipment of the Paramount Municipal Code, this acquisition is exempt from competitive bidding due to this being a professional service contract as specified in Section 3.12.080 of the Municipal Code.

Agenda Report December 17, 2024

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity, and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decisionmaking. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 4: Environmental Health - Promote, protect, and enhance a healthy, sustainably built, and natural environment.

From Gruen Associates Date 11/27/24
Subject Development of a Plant List: Proposal
In response to the City of Paramount’s vision for sustainable, high-quality landscape in commercial developments, Gruen Associates proposes to develop a comprehensive plant list to enhance and support the city’s Commercial Design Guidelines. This list will be tailored to Paramount’s landscaping standards and municipal codes, ensuring plant selections that align with the city’s environmental goals while promoting visually appealing, resilient landscapes for commercial properties.

Scope of Work

1. Review of Existing Guidelines and Municipal Codes
o Conduct a comprehensive review of Paramount’s commercial landscaping standards and municipal codes.
o Ensure that each selected plant species is in full compliance with existing requirements, while identifying areas where our plant choices can enhance city sustainability goals.

2. Plant Selection Criteria
o Establish criteria for plant selection that focus on:
 Water Efficiency: Select drought-tolerant plants to support Paramount’s water conservation efforts.
 Native and Adapted Species: Emphasize California native plants and non-invasive species that thrive locally, contributing to a sustainable, biodiverse urban landscape.  Low Maintenance: Choose species that require minimal pruning, pest control, and fertilizing, promoting resource-efficient, low-maintenance commercial landscapes.  Climate and Soil Suitability: Select plants suited to Paramount’s specific climate and soil conditions to ensure resilience and long-term viability.  Aesthetic and Functional Value: Include species that provide visual interest, seasonal variety, and functional benefits such as shade, erosion control, and natural screening.

2. Development of Plant List
o Compile a detailed list of trees, shrubs, ground covers, and accent plants, with information on care requirements, water needs, and ideal placement. o Organize the list by categories (trees, shrubs, ground covers) with spacing and usage guidelines to assist with effective landscape planning.

3. Review and Finalization
o Collaborate with Paramount’s planning staff to review the draft plant list, ensuring it meets city goals and practical requirements.
o Refine the list based on feedback, resulting in a finalized plant resource.

SUBJECT: APPROVING ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENT NO. 33,

REVISING REGULATIONS FOR HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS TO

FURTHER INCORPORATE OBJECTIVE DESIGN STANDARDS

CITYWIDE IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES

BACKGROUND
This item is a request for the City Council to approve the introduction of Ordinance No. 1191/Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment (ZOTA) No. 33, revising regulations for housing developments to further incorporate objective design standards citywide in the R-1 (Single-Family Residential), R-2 (Medium Density Residential), and R-M (Multiple-Family Residential) zones.

Objective design standards (ODS) are intended to make the requirements that apply to certain eligible residential projects more predictable and easier to interpret for all stakeholders, including decisionmakers, staff, applicants, and members of the public. The purpose of the ODS is to allow communities to maintain some level of local control while still complying with State housing laws that are reducing local control of development.

They provide an opportunity to ensure that the appearance of new development is compatible with the City’s vision.

Elements of ODS are site design, building design, architectural styles and materials, and open space and landscaping. The ODS have been prepared as an integral part of the Zoning Code (Title 17 of the Municipal Code). This scope has included a community engagement program that targeted discussions to identify preferred outcomes and confirm goals and expectations. On April 23, 2024, the City Council and Development Review Board held a joint meeting to provide direction into the design standards prior to formal public hearings. Now complete, the ODS has been developed into an ordinance for City Council consideration. The Planning Commission recommended approval on November 6, 2024.

DISCUSSION
With the stated goal of addressing the housing shortage, the State has been approving legislation that limits cities from considering housing proposals based on subjective standards. Examples of subjective standards include phrasing such as “developments Agenda Report December 17, 2024
ORDINANCE NO. 1191 Page 2
with superior design” and “developments that have neighborhood compatibility.” Rather, the State is reducing local review of housing to predetermined objective standards.

Summary of Proposed Revisions
The proposed Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment would revise residential performance standard sections in the R-1 (17.08), R-2 (17.12), R-M (17.16), and accessory dwelling unit (17.104) chapters of the Paramount Municipal Code. New definitions are included in Section 17.04.010 of the Municipal Code. Procedural requirements of Chapter 17.60 (Development Review Board) would also be updated. Some of the provisions of the proposed ordinance include the following:
• Revising language that currently is subjective (requiring personal interpretation or judgement) into objective language (uniformly verifiable to an external benchmark or criterion knowable by both the development applicant and public officials). • Including new objective standards language that will support the existing Zoning Code and ensure that qualifying projects meet the intent of the Code for high-quality design and development.
• Updating the existing text-based code to include easy-to-understand graphics and photos.
• Revising provisions to account for new ministerial application, review, and approval processes.

The Interim City Attorney has reviewed and approved the proposed changes reflected in this Ordinance.

Environmental Assessment
This ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, minor alterations in land use limitations in areas with an average slope of less than 20% that do not result in any changes in land use or density and Section 15061(b)(3) which is the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment and CEQA does not apply where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.
