(IRP)
Jeffrey Kightlinger, Interim General Manager of Water and Power, provided introductory comments, and John Hormozi, Principal Power Resource Planner for Water and Power, summarized the agenda report as part of a PowerPoint presentation, and responded to questions.
Jeffrey Kightlinger expressed regret for putting together the Stakeholder Advisory Group (STAG) before receiving direction from the Committee and asked for recommendations in reforming the group.
Vice Mayor Wilson recognized the need for diversity in creating the STAG and asked staff to utilize as many of the 16 current applicants as possible in formulating the group.
Garrett Stevenson, Recording Secretary, reported that the City Clerk’s Office received one letter expressing concerns over the selection process for the current 16-member STAG and asked the Committee to restart the process; and two advocating for the Committee to not modify.
The following individuals provided public comment on the matter:
Robert Haw, representing Pasadena 100
Carl Selkin, representing Social Justice Committee of Pasadena Jewish Temple and Center, and 2023 STAG applicant
Sam Berndt, Pasadena resident and 2023 STAG applicant
Felix Breden, Pasadena resident and 2023 STAG applicant Cynthia Cannady, Pasadena resident and 2023 STAG applicant Councilmember Hampton recommended that STAG members that are under the “ City” category should be made up of councilmembers and commissioners rather than City staff , which may create a conflict of interest. He also suggested amending STAG member s under the category “Business” to include one small business and one large business representative (preferably from Caltech, Pasadena Unified School District, or Kaiser); and advocated for the inclusion of more low income/senior community STAG members.
Vice Mayor Wilson recommended ad ding a representative from the Huntington Hospital as they are a large -scale power user . He asked staff to keep at least eight of the current applicants while reforming the STAG member list to include councilmember recommendations; and for staff to create a deadline for STAG nominations from the Committee recommended groups.
Councilmember Rivas voiced support of adjusting the STAG members to include individuals who are low income , and asked staff to use the current 16 members to fill as many of the diversi ty group seats as possible; and of Councilmember Hampton’s comments related to STAG members that are under the “City” category should be made up of councilmembers and commissioners rather than City staff. 3 03 10/11/2022
Councilmember Williams asked staff to include a re presentative from the Pasadena Chamber of Commerce, the Huntington Memorial Hospital, and the Pasadena Senior Center to the STAG.

Councilmember Hampton requested that Orange Grove Boulevard and Walnut Street be included in the priority corridor prioritization improvement list.
Vice Mayor Wilson asked that the agenda report include the methods that will be used to improve and promote walkability in Pasadena when the final report is presented to the City Council. He suggested setting goals for improving Pasadena’s “aggregate walk score” to help market the City. He recommended reviewing areas in the community where pedestrian traffic is low, but incidents of injury are high when prioritizing corridor improvements. Vice Mayor Wilson asked staff to review L ake Avenue and South Los Robles Avenue for potential improvements; and use empirical and analytical data when choosing areas for 5 02 10/25/2022

• PWP is divesting from IPP when the current contract ends in 2027. • This will mean the loss of 108 MW of firm capacity, and a substantial amount of energy as well.
• The variable nature, and therefore discounted capacity value, of most renewable resources will likely entail the necessity of acquiring significantly more than 108 MW to make up the firm capacity that IPP supplies.

MEMORANDUM
January 17, 2023
To:
Municipal Services Committee
From: Jeffrey Kightlinger
Interim General Manager
Subject: Intermountain Power Project Update
This report is for information only
.
BACKGROUND:
This report is to provide an informational update to the Municipa l Services Committee (“MSC”) about the status of the Intermountain Power Project (“IPP”).
In 1987, the IPP coal-fired electr icity generation facility, which is located in Delta, Utah, began providing power to Pasadena Water and Po wer (“PWP”) along with the cities of Anaheim, Burbank, Glendale, Los Angeles, Riverside, and a number of utilities, cities, and co-ops in the State of Ut ah. IPP is owned by Intermount ain Power Agency (“IPA”) and operated by Los Angeles Depar tment of Water and Power (“LADWP”). The existing 40- year IPP contract commenced in 1987 and expire s in June 2027. The IPP contract also includes rights to the Southern Transmission System (“STS”), which provides transmission of the IPP power to California. Currently, IPP makes up about one-third of Pasadena’s total power supply.
In response to legislation and increased r egulation of coal-fir ed power generation, particularly in California, IPA has developed a plan to cease coal generation at IPP by 2025. IPA plans to transition IPP to serve as a regional energy hub that integrates natural gas and low-carbon sources with emerging green technologies, including hydrogen-based energy. The new energy facilities at IPP are known collectively as the “Renewal Project.” In 2015, IPA began negotiations with the current participants for a new 50-year contract to succeed the expiring contract after June 2027. All existing participants in the IPP were invited to opt-in to the renewal contract in which the generating facility will operate as the Renewal Project.
The PWP 2018 Power Integrated Resource Plan focused on the overall goal of reducing fossil fuel resources from PWP’s portfolio . On October 29, 2018, Pasadena declined participation in the IPP renewal contract beyond the June 2027 expiration of the existing contract. However, because the Renewal Project will start generating power in 2025, prior to the end of the existing contract, Pa sadena, Riverside, and Anaheim (“Exiting Participants”) will continue to receive energy deliveries from IPP and remain responsible for two years of costs associated with the Renewal Project. 27 IPP Project Update
January 17, 2023
As development of the Renewal Project continues, several technical and financial iss ues,
including debt service and operational costs, have yet to be fully defined between the agencies continuing to participate in the new project and those who will exit in 2027. PWP staff continues to work closely with IPA to understand the dynamics of the Renewal Project and to ensure the most beneficial outcome for Pasadena, including limiting cost exposure.
PWP meets regularly with IPA and other IPP participants to discuss multiple complex issues, including projected costs, operations, potential risks, and obligations for the Renewal Project and the existing coal facility. PWP staff represents Pasadena’s interests in the IPP facilities through participation in the IPP Coordinating Committee, the IPP Renewal Coordinating Committee, the Gene ration and Transmission Subcommittee, the Facilities Retirement Subcommittee, and in other meetings as necessary.
A comparison of the existing IPP and renewal contracts is presented in Table 1.

Update on the IPP Renewal Project
For the IPP Renewal Project, both the natural
gas pipeline contract and the original
equipment manufacturer (also referred to as the main generator equipment) contract have been awarded. The associated generation facility is being constructed to provide a maximum of 30 percent hydrogen capability st arting in July 2025, although PWP will receive only natural gas-fueled energy. The hydrogen capability will benefit only the participants continuing in the Renewal Pr oject and they will be responsible for the associated costs. As an Exiting Participant, PWP will not be liable for any costs related to the hydrogen capability.
PWP Costs Associated with the IPP Renewal Project
A majority of the costs associated with PWP’s share of power from the Renewal Project are for the debt service and operating costs occurring between June 2025 and June 2027.
Based on a July 2022 IPA report, the total capital cost for the Renewal Project is estimated at $3.7 billion and Pasadena will be liable for 6 per cent of the debt service, equal to its share of the natural gas portion of the plant’s capacity from 2025 to 2027. In addition, PWP is also responsible for a small portion of costs associated with decommissioning the IPP coal facility and the STS. The estimated PWP IPP project costs are included in Table 2.

Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2019 through FY 2021 are represented by actual data. FY 2022 through FY 2025 reflect operating budget projections provided by IPA. FY 2026 and FY 2027 are projections based on Pasadena’s rights and obligations under the IPP Renewal Project, in line with updated IPA budget estimates.
The current estimated IPP repowering budget of $3.7 billion has increased from $2.5 billion sinc
e 2021 due to supply chain issues, increased demand for construction services, and increased labor and materials. PWP, along with other Exiting Participants, $38 $39 $38

PWP’s Cost Share Estimate Comparison
IPP Update Presentation ‐ 2020 IPP Update Presentation ‐ 2022 2026 ‐ 2027 2026 ‐ 2027
IPP Debt Service $14,236,281.58 $21,038,850.86
IPP Generation Decommissioning
Cost $2,097,485.48 $2,097,485.48
IPP STS Decommissioning Cost $1,473,690.00 $1,473,690.00 IPP Generation Cost $32,976,463.67 $46,524,000.00
Total $50,783,920.73 $71,134,026.34
In the IPP Update presented to MSC on October 27, 2020, PWP estimated Pasadena’s cost of the IPP Renewal Project for years 2026 and 2027 to be approximately $51 million, or $25.5 millio
n per fiscal year.
Based on a recent analysis of information provided by IPA in November 2022, Pasadena’s total estimated cost for years 2026 and 2027 is approximately $71 million, or $35.5 million per year. Most costs anticipated during 2026 and 2027 will be attributed to debt service cost estimates and variable generation and operating costs. Staff anticipates that Pasadena’s share of IPP outstanding debt service for 2026 and 2027 to be approximately $21 million, or $10.5 million per year. The increased debt service costs are based on IPA’s debt service estimates, which include increased annual interest rates, increased construction and labor costs, and ongoing supply chain issues. For generation cost projections for 2026 and 2027, PWP anticipates a forecast similar to that of IPA through 2025. This budget estimate is based on uncertainty with the fuel change from coal to natural gas but considers contractual minimum energy take requirements.
The current forecasted generation cost for 2025 is $23.2 million, which includes PWP’s Entitlement Share, PWP’s Excess Share, and cost for STS and NTS. While all other costs have increased, IPA informed PWP that decommissioning costs for both generation and transmission have not increased since the previous 2020 IPP Update.
IPP Renewal Next Steps
PWP continues to work with IPA to determine the costs associated with the IPP Renewal Project and to limit Pasadena’s obligations associated with the decommissioning of the coal plant. PWP staff actively participates in discussions about the construction schedules and progress for the Renewal Project and associated cost allocation and billing processes.
PWP, along with the other Ex iting Participants, have collaborated to develop and recommend actions that identify and designate specific funding for the hydrogen capacity, decommissioning of the coal plant and STS, and costs associated with the IPP Renewal Project beyond 2027. One of the mo st significant actions was to identify specific capital costs to be included as Transition Project Indebtedness (“TPI”), which clearly designates capital costs and debt service obligations for Exiting Participants and for the agencies 30 IPP Project Update
January 17, 2023
continuing long-term participation in the Renewal Proje ct. The Coordinating Committee’s
approval of the TPI on November 25, 2019, represented by Resolution RCCC-2019-003, was a critical action to permit long-term funding to proceed.
PWP, acting jointly with other Exiting Participants, has engaged legal and technical experts to protect its operational and financial interests. PWP staff will continue to provide periodic updates to the MSC and the City Council.
IPP Replacement Projects
As a result of the 2025 reduction of PWP’s capacity interest in the IPP from 108 MW to
50.4 MW, followed by the contract termination in June 2027 and combined with near expiration of other energy resource contracts representing at least 40 MW (by 2030), the need to augment PWP’s energy resource portfolio with new energy resource contracts is imperative. PWP plans to replace the capacity represented by IPP with a mix of short and long-term renewable energy contracts that support reliability, meet future state compliance requirements, and limit potential exposure to stranded investments.
PWP has negotiated a 20-year so lar plus battery storage pr oject through the Southern California Public Power Authority called EDF Sapphire, which will be shared with the Cities of Anaheim and Vernon and begin in December 2026. PWP will receive 39 MW of the 117 MW solar portion of the project and 19.67 MW of the 59 MW of four hours’ duration of the battery storage project. EDF Sapphire will be located inside California near PWP’s service area and provide Portfolio Content Category 1 Renewable Energy Credits (“RECs”).
To advance PWP’s Renewable Portfolio Standard (“RPS”) goals, PWP has procured short-term RECs, a strategy with multiple benefits that help meet RPS compliance obligations while diversifying PWP’s sustainable energy resources. This approach will enable PWP to achieve RPS compliance at the least cost to its customers.
Additionally, PWP is currently negotiating a contract for participation in a 10-year, 35 MW project that will augment PWP’s energy resource portfolio with approximately 260 gigawatt hours of geothermal energy per year. The resource is located in California and will be delivered to California Independent System Operator’s NP-15 delivery point. The firm energy generated from this geothermal resource, along with the associated green attributes allocated to PWP, will provide much-needed resource adequacy to replace a portion of the firm capacity that IPP currently supplies.
To further advance PWP’s RPS goals while replacing the IPP generation resources, PWP plans to issue a Request for Proposals for a local battery energy storage system (“BESS”) to be located at the Glenarm Power Plant Facility. A local BESS would allow PWP to shift lower-cost solar energy into the evening and “peak” energy periods. 31 Pasadena Water and Power

RPOSE:
The City’s Municipal Code spells out the functions of the Planning Commission (the Commission) in Section 2.105.110. The purpose of the Commission is to advise the City Council on the preparation and review of the General Plan, as well as the adoption or implementation of programs under the Plan, including the creation of zoning districts, modification to and administration of zoning regulations, review of the Capital Improvements Program, and review of other programs and projects which affect city development. State law also grants the Commission the broad responsibility for advising the City Council on all land use planning issues. The Commission meets twice a month and these meetings are open to the public and advertised as required by law.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Gavin Newsome issued Executive Order N- 29-20 on March 17, 2020, authorizing all public hearings in California to be conducted virtually via Teleconference/Videoconference through September 30, 2021. Executive Order N-29-20 was in effect for a portion of FY 2021-2022 (FY 2022). In recognition that the pandemic is ongoing, on September 16, 2021, the Governor signed AB 361, which amended the Brown Act and authorizes teleconferenced public meetings under certain circumstances where public participation is remote. AB 361 went into effect October 1, 2021. Via adoption of resolutions, pursuant to AB 361, The City Council authorized remote teleconference meetings of the City Council, all City subordinate bodies, and all City non-profit corporation Boards and their subordinate bodies in 30-day periods.
The Commission consists of nine members, with each Councilmember appointing one member and the Mayor appointing two members. The latter are appointed for three years and may be reappointed to serve a maximum of six years. See Attachment A for a roster of Commission members. Each fiscal year, the Commission elects a chair and vice-chair to serve for the upcoming fiscal year. In FY2022, Commissioner Steven Olivas served as the Chair and Commissioner Jason Lyon served as the Vice-Chair.
Commissioner Olivas served as Vice-Chair until he was nominated as Chair, and Commissioner Lyon was nominated as Vice Chair.
The Commissioners also serve on committees to address specific issues and provide policy direction on planning matters (see Attachment B). The first committee, the Board of Zoning Appeals has the authority to hear appeals and calls for review of decisions on applications for use permits, variances, interpretations, and sign exceptions in accordance with the provisions of the City’s Zoning Code. The second committee assignment is serving as a representative on the City’s Design Commission.
The Commission regularly meets on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month.
Of the 24 regularly scheduled meetings this past fiscal year, 5 were cancelled. In addition, there were 2 special meetings. See Attachment - C for an attendance record of the Commission members. All of the meetings in FY 2022 were held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
