Should the City Council approve the budget adjustment, $85,500 will be reduced from the CED GF budget (Account No. 100.30.3020.54400), transferred from the GF (Account No. 100.98.9800-56900) to the CIP Fund (Account No. 400.00.0000-47900), and appropriated to the project (Account No. 400.70.7300-54500-CIP.50015). This adjustment would increase the project total to $743,696.
Background:
On March 27, 2018, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority awarded the City of Pico Rivera (City) a $390,000 grant to prepare a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan within a half-mile radius of the proposed Eastside Transit Corridor Phase 2 project. The project would potentially extend the L-Line (formerly Gold Line) from East Los Angeles through the cities of Commerce, Montebello, Pico Rivera, Santa Fe Springs, Whittier, and the unincorporated communities of East Los Angeles and West Whittier-Los Nietos. The TOD Specific Plan will identify land use policy, create development standards, and define economic revitalization goals for a transit-oriented neighborhood centered at the Washington Boulevard and Rosemead Boulevard intersection which is within the half-mile radius of the proposed rail extension.
Discussion:
On June 11, 2019, the City awarded Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (Kimley-Horn) a contract for the creation of a Washington Boulevard TOD Specific Plan. Kimley-Horn is a full-service planning, engineering, and environmental consulting firm providing services since 1967 to private and public clients nationwide. Kimley-Horn has been involved in numerous transit-oriented development and specific plan projects throughout the nation and within Los Angeles County, including Metro grant-funded projects.
These include the City of Duarte’s Gold Line Station Area Development Specific Plan and the City of Downey’s Rancho Los Amigos South Campus TOD Specific Plan.
A draft product was provided by the consultant team; however, it will require substantial revisions to better align with the City’s goals of promoting development and fostering a thriving community. The contract agreement expired on June 30, 2025, and staff is requesting that the agreement be extended to June 30, 2027. The extension will give the Consultant and staff sufficient time to produce a comprehensive final product.

In the course of creating this plan, it was necessary to amend components of the plan, such as the traffic, land use, and parking study produced by the consultant team. As such an increase of $85,500 is needed to complete the project.
The revised total project budget is summarized as follows:
Funding Category Amount
Metro TOD Grant (Measure R) $390,000
Local Match – Economic Sustainability Fund $248,196
Local Match – Additional Being Requested $85,500
In-Kind Staff Time (Planning/Economic Development) $20,000 TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET $743,696
Conclusion:
Staff recommends approving Amendment No. 3 to extend the contract with Kimley-Horn Associates, Inc. through June 30, 2027, and to appropriate $85,500 from the Economic Sustainability Fund balance to the project.

Mr. Alvie Betancourt
Director, Community&Economic Development
City of Pico Rivera
6615 Passons Boulevard
Pico Rivera, CA 90660
RE: Contract Amendment No. 3 (to Original Contract dated June 12, 2019) Washington/Rosemead TOD Specific Plan and EIR
Dear Alvie:
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (Kimley-Horn) appreciates the opportunity to submit this contract amendment to provide continued planning and environmental support servicesto the City of Pico Rivera (“the Client”) for Washington/Rosemead TOD Specific Plan and EIR (“the Project”). This contract amendment has been prepared to identify additional budget requirements to make the requested additional Specific Plan land use revisions, additional budget for Final EIR preparation, as well as associated additional project management and meeting costs. Additionally, as our last contract amendment extended the Agreement until June 30, 2025, we have identified the need to extend the Agreement further, as well as provide for a 5% rate adjustment for work done since January 1, 2026.
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1 – SP Revisions (additional budget)
Our current contract (Contract Amendment No. 2, Task 1), assumed one final round of City comment prior to release of the Draft SP. This work has all been completed.
The City has requested that Kimley-Horn revise the land use plan, and incorporate newly established definitions and permit use tablesin the Specific Plan. This task requires Kimley-Horn to revise the land use tables, land use plan, and associated text and graphics throughout the Specific Plan.
This task assumes one submittal of the revised SP to the City, based upon the revised land use plan and definitions provided by City staff. Kimley-Horn will hold a kickoff call with City staff to confirm land use plan and related key assumptions. Following this SP submittal, it is assumed that there will be no further revisions to the Specific Plan land use assumptions, and any
kimley-horn.com 3801 University Avenue, Suite 300, Riverside, CA 92501 951 543 9868 remaining Specific Plan comments from City staff will be provided as consolidated reconciled comments in one batch, and will be relatively minor (mostly editorial).
Kimley-Horn will provide the revised SP to City staff for their circulation to the industrial property owner stakeholders. Kimley-Horn assumes that stakeholder review will not result in any substantive changes to the SP, and any revisions, if at all, would be minor in nature (editorial).
Thistask also assumes one final round of City review, followed by City review of a “check copy” of the revised Draft Specific Plan. This task assumes that, following submittal of the revised Draft SP, no further revisions to the SP are required as part of the CEQA or public hearing process.
Up to 50 hours of staff time has been assumed for all remaining SP revisions.
Task 2 – Final EIR (additional budget)
We have completed all Draft EIR and Final EIR tasks noted in our current contract (including our original agreement, and Contract Amendment No. 2). Drafts have been prepared for responses to comments from January 2025 comment letters (received during the original Draft EIR comment period), in addition to drafts of the Findings and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Additional budget is required to respond to the substantial EIR comments received in July and August 2025 following the May 2025 recirculation and extension of the public review period (particularly for comments from Rutan and Tucker, and from MBI on behalf of NAIOP).
Under this amendment, Kimley-Horn will prepare a Final EIR Errata to clarify the land use and development density changes proposed by the City for the Washington/Rosemead TOD Specific Plan. The Errata will explain how the updated land use and density assumptions relate to, and remain within, the overall envelope of impacts evaluated in the Draft EIR, and will provide any necessary clarifying narrative and tabular updates within the Errata document itself. No pageby-page edits to the Draft EIR are assumed, and redistribution or recirculation of the Draft EIR is not assumed to be necessary based on the nature and scale of the changes.
Kimley-Horn will update the previously drafted responses, Findings and MMRP to reflect the revised SP as well as incorporate appropriate language and any changes associated with the revised responses.
As part of this task, Kimley-Horn will also prepare qualitative responses to public and stakeholder comments received on the Draft EIR. Responses will focus on explaining and crossreferencing existing analysis and conclusions in the Draft EIR and the Errata. The goal is to document, in a clear and concise manner, how the land use and density refinements are addressed within the existing CEQA framework without changing the overall impact
kimley-horn.com 3801 University Avenue, Suite 300, Riverside, CA 92501 951 543 9868 conclusions. If the City or its legal counsel later determine that more substantial revisions or recirculation are required, those efforts would be treated as additional services under a separate amendment.
This task assumes that City staff will handle Final EIR and SP distribution and noticing, including the Notice of Determination.
Up to 100 hours of staff time has been assumed for all remaining Final EIR work products including the Final EIR, MMRP and Findings.
NOTE: if City staff are able to have the industrial stakeholders retract their July and August comment letters, this budget could be reduced.
Task 3 – Technical Study Responses
We have budgeted up to 80 hours for the technical team to address traffic and air quality/GHG comments. We have provided an optional task to conduct CALINE4 modeling of up to three scenarios, as requested by NAIOP.
Optional Task – If desired by City staff, Kimley-Horn could conduct CALINE4 modeling of up to three scenarios (Existing Conditions, Existing General Plan/Zoning, and Proposed Project), as requested by NAIOP. We recommend this optional task, given the comments by NAIOP.
Task 4 – Project Meetings and Management (future coordination/meetings) With the current requested land use assumption changes and associated additional EIR work, we are now estimating that our work program will go through May 2026 (assuming Notice to Proceed on this additional work by the end of January 2026). This represents an additional four (4) months of project management and meeting time. This task assumes that we have up to eight (8) future project update status calls with City staff between now and Project approval hearings, and that these meetings are virtual, and attended by up to three (3) Kimley-Horn staff.
Allowing for preparation, attendance and follow-up time, we assume up to 30 hours of project meeting time. The current contract has budget for public hearings, which we assume is adequate to cover public hearing preparation, attendance and follow-up time. Up to an additional 30 hours of Kimley-Horn staff time is assumed for project management through Project approval hearings and contract completion.
AGREEMENT END DATE EXTENSION
Kimley-Horn is recommending that our Agreement be extended until June 30, 2026. A detailed schedule will be provided to City staff upon Notice to Proceed forthis additional work.
kimley-horn.com 3801 University Avenue, Suite 300, Riverside, CA 92501 951 543 9868
RATE ESCALATION
Our last rate escalation was September 1, 2024, with the Agreement running through June 30, 2025. This contract amendment No. 3 incorporates a 5% rate increase for all work done effective January 1, 2026.
Additional Services
Any services not specifically provided for in the above Scope, if requested by the Client, will be billed as additional services, and performed at our then-current hourly rates.
SCHEDULE
Kimley-Horn will provide services as expeditiously as practicable with the goal of meeting a mutually agreed upon schedule. A detailed project schedule can be provided as soon as we have Notice to Proceed on this additional work. We estimate approximately six (6) weeks to produce the revised Specific Plan and Administrative Draft Final EIR, following Notice to Proceed.

Mr. Steve Carmona, Director of Community and
Economic Development
City of Pico Rivera, Community & Economic Development Department 6615 Passons Boulevard
Pico Rivera, CA 90660
Re: Proposal for Consultant Services for Preparation of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan for the Gold Line Eastside Extension at Washington and Rosemead Boulevards Dear Mr. Carmona, Ms. Foulkes, and Members of the Selection Committee:
Our team’s collective, award winning experience, has shown that a successful implementation-oriented planning process will guide formative change for the City of Pico Rivera.
We stress the following “Success Factors”:
The Specific Plan as a Marketing Tool – An effective Specific Plan should be used to attract investment. To achieve this, it must resonate with potential investors, developers, business owners, and residents. The plan should explicitly describe the benefits to investment, development entitlement process, and other incentives that will attract quality development. The Specific Plan is akin to a Business Plan, providing the strategies and actions that bring the plan to fruition.
A Specific Plan that is Grounded in Reality – Big ideas are great, but a plan should be grounded in reality. We have seen other’s plans fail because they are not based on conditions ‘on the ground.’ The plan must consider the realities and limitations and develop a systematic approach, oftentimes learned by really listening to City and community members, to address and overcome these challenges.
Meaningful and Sustained Community Engagement – Meaningful and Sustained Community Engagement contributes to plans that fulfill the needs, wants, and desires of Pico Rivera residents and stakeholders.
The Planning Process in 360 degrees – Many times unsuccessful planning efforts create policy in silos. We believe that this TOD Specific Plan must be integrated, interconnected, and reinforce community values.
Our small team of experts is looking forward to serving the needs of the City, as set forth in the RFP. Our team, led by Project Manager and the City’s main contact, Dave Barquist, AICP, is made up of:
• Kimley-Horn – Specific Plan Preparation, Mobility/Circulation, Environmental Impact Report (EIR) Preparation, and
Community Engagement
• Keyser Marston – Economic Development/Fiscal Requirements • Crandall Arambula – TOD Urban Design
Our enclosed proposal demonstrates the history of quality, dedication, responsiveness, and experience that the City is looking for in a trusted consultant. We look forward to the next step in the selection process. Dave may be reached at Kimley-Horn, 765 The City Drive, Suite 200, Orange, CA 92868, or by phone at (714) 705-1317, or email at

PROPOSAL FOR
Consultant Services for preparation of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan for the
GOLD LINE EASTSIDE EXTENSION AT WASHINGTON AND ROSEMEAD BOULEVARDS City of Pico Rivera | LPPL77001.19 5
It is likely that development and/or financial incentives will be required to attract desirable, catalytic development. The catalytic development may be different for each Opportunity Site. Therefore, the recommendations and implementation plan will need to consider the resources available to the City as well as the unique characteristics of each Opportunity Site.
Ultimately, KMA will identify economic and financial incentives that can be deployed to enhance a project’s viability. While not exhaustive, the incentive tools that will be considered include:
• Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districs
• Assessment district formation for operation and maintenance of public improvements.
• Community Revitalization and Investment Authorities
• Expedited development processing to accelerate desired projects. • Revised development fee programs to target particular businesses. • Federal Opportunity Zone Investments
• Contribution of site specific public revenues to attract desired development or reuse of existing improvements.
• Alternative land scenarios (e.g. mixed-use development) • Other potential/fundgng/fianancing tools
KMA will prepare a matrix that summarizes the implementation mechanisms and suitability for the Opportunity Sites. The matrix will consider the following issues related to the funding mechanisms:
Task 2.1 Deliverables:
• KMA will synthesize the matrix into a narrative, which summarizes how the funding mechanisms would work in concert. The narrative will also provide a timeline identifying how the program would be implemented.
› TASK 2.2 – Conduct Market and Development Feasibility Study KMA will be keenly aware of the potential synergy for commercial and residential development adjacent to transit. To this end, KMA will rely on our experience with transit oriented developments in the region, particularly locations along Metrolink; the Metro Gold Line, Purple Line and Red Line; and other major TODs such as ARTIC in Anaheim. The scope of services below considers KMA’s extensive experience in the market area and its unique characteristics. To this end, the KMA analysis will include:
Market Area Review
KMA will analyze the makeup of the residents, employment and businesses within the following areas:
1. The pertinent market area;
2. The City of Pico Rivera; and
3. Los Angeles County.
There are a number of important demographic and economic characteristics that will profoundly impact the market support for residential and retail development. Included among these are the number of households, household formation, population, income levels and the resulting retail expenditures potential. In addition, KMA will summarize business patterns in the market area. This information will be obtained from state and local governmental agencies; private firms specializing in demographic and business data; a market area reconnaissance; a review of the general land use plan; any studies the City has performed; a review of reports prepared for the City; and market research conducted by KMA.
Assessment of Market Conditions
The Market Area Review will set the stage for KMA’s subsequent research.
By first identifying the salient factors that will impact future development, KMA can proceed with an assessment of market conditions to identify near- to long-term development opportunities. The assessment of market conditions will consider the strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for present and future uses for the Opportunity Sites. The analysis will evaluate the following:

Market Considerations
The information compiled in the previous tasks will be utilized to evaluate the market opportunities for each Opportunity Site. This evaluation will consider the depth of demand for various development types throughout the larger market area, and the appropriateness of these uses for each Opportunity Site. Specifically, KMA will conduct the following analyses:
• Review amount of development planned for the Opportunity Sites and immediate area
• Compare results of surplus leakage analysis to potential scale of development allowed in the Opportunity Sites and immediate area • Identify the types of retail with market support and consider their appropriateness for the Opportunity Sites, with particular attention given to the potential format of the retail space (e.g. small tenant mixed-use retail, small box retail, big box retail, etc.) allowed • Estimate the square footage of office development appropriate for each Opportunity Sites
• Identify residential product types best suited for each Opportunity Site
Task 2.2 Deliverables:
• KMA will prepare a memorandum and series of tables that summarize the overall market conditions and the opportunities for each Opportunity Site.
› TASK 2.3 – Conduct Parking Study and Parking Management Plan Our approach is intended to provide the specific plan areas with a comprehensive parking strategy that will include parking inventory, review of shared parking arrangements, defining parking demand today and in the future, and presenting recommendations to improve the parking system and enhance economic vitality in the area. The following subtasks define the project approach:
Parking Data Collection – Kimley-Horn will perform a field visit to understand parking inventory, shared parking arrangements, and general parking occupancy for the specific plan area. The field review will strive to define the area parking supply in such a way as to differentiate between transit parking and parking supply for other public utility, allowing the project team to define current parking characteristics and potential arrangements that will better utilize the parking supply.
Parking Demand Evaluation – Using the data collected in the first task and the preferred land use scenario, Kimley-Horn will develop a Microsoft Excel based shared parking model for the study area based upon established industry standards such as ITE and ULI guidelines, with specific sub areas developed to represent consolidated mixed-use areas or areas of defined shared parking. The model will be calibrated to the collected conditions to more accurately reflect the parking demand characteristics in the area. Using these calibrated conditions, Kimley-Horn will model the demand for additional parking due to existing and proposed parking in the study area.
Recommendations – Following the development of parking demand projections, Kimley-Horn will utilize the existing data and proposed parking projections to evaluate supply, balancing through shared parking and incremental parking management strategies. The recommendations will
PROPOSAL FOR
Consultant Services for preparation of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan for the
GOLD LINE EASTSIDE EXTENSION AT WASHINGTON AND ROSEMEAD BOULEVARDS City of Pico Rivera | LPPL77001.19 7
be oriented towards promoting shared parking; a park once philosophy throughout the area; and a parking system that supports and promotes the economic vitality of the community. Following the completion of these tasks, Kimley-Horn will document the analysis, methodology, findings, and recommendations into a draft summary for submission to the City.
Task 2.3 Deliverables:
• Existing Conditions LOS, VMT,
and Parking Analysis Memo
along with tables and graphics
• Future Conditions with
mitigation strategies
with graphics
› TASK 2.4 – Mobility Assessment
Kimley-Horn will review up to three (3) land use scenarios and complete an analysis associated with the preferred land use scenario. This analysis could be utilized to determine the transportation impacts on the street system within the TOD Specific Plan area. We will complete a trip generation calculation and trip distribution assignment for the preferred land use scenario to forecast the potential effects of the preferred land use scenario on the street network.
We will analyze intersection operations based upon the City’s traffic analysis requirements. We have assumed up to 15 intersections and six (6) roadway segments in our analysis. The analysis will identify the level of service (LOS) at each intersection and for the roadway segments. Weekday peak hour intersection operations will be calculated for the following scenarios: Existing Conditions, Existing Conditions + Project, Future Conditions without Project, and Future Conditions + Project.
As part of this task, Kimley-Horn will augment the LOS analysis with a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis. Kimley-Horn will meet with the City’s VMT coordinator to identify the City’s VMT thresholds that would be based upon the recently issued SB 743 guidelines. Kimley-Horn will review the City’s VMT model trip generation assumptions for the study area and complete a VMT analysis based on the City’s VMT model output.
The analysis will provide a determination of significant impacts based on the City’s VMT thresholds. The VMT analysis will be incorporated into the Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) currently being prepared.
Complete Streets aspects and non-vehicular mobility in the TOD specific plan area will be evaluated. Kimley-Horn will review the preferred land use scenario and identify locations where density changes or land use changes may affect the way streets are utilized. We will identify opportunities to incorporate complete streets elements to accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, along with automobiles. As we incorporate these elements, we will determine the appropriate method to evaluate the LOS at these intersections and roadway segments. We will document the results in the transportation section of the Specific Plan document.
Task 2.4 Deliverables:
• Draft and Final Mobility Assessment
› TASK 2.5 – Community Workshop #2
A second public workshop/meeting will be conducted to discuss the preliminary findings of the background analysis, market and development feasibility, parking study, and traffic/circulation study; summarize the findings from the prior workshop and begin to development of the “two dimensional” land use concepts the may apply to the Specific Plan area.
The workshop will explore a variety of alternatives and seek additional thoughts and ideas from the public.
Task 2.5 Deliverables: • Meeting agenda; Powerpoint presentation; other materials, as necessary

respond to changing market demands.
Task 3.1 Deliverables:
• Draft and Final Land Use Plan
› TASK 3.2 – Prepare Development Standards, Design Guidelines, and Public Improvements
Kimley-Horn will prepare development standards and design guidelines that address the current and proposed design concepts and supportive development for various types of TOD mixed-uses within and directly adjacent to the study area. Based on feedback from previous tasks, the design guidelines are intended to ensure that new development is compatible to the surrounding neighborhood and compliments LACMTA’s Transit Supportive Planning Toolkit’s 10 Characteristics of Transit Supportive Places.
Kimley Horn will identify the improvements needed for the street network and intersections within the specific plan area. Kimley-Horn will review relevant wet and dry infrastructure elements such as gas, power, telephone, communications, water, stormwater, and sewer within the specific plan area, and will determine applicable codes related to engineering and infrastructure design, and inform the project team.
Based upon the preferred land use scenario, we will identify potential improvements that will be required for these infrastructure elements. The analysis will not include detailed engineering calculations but will be more cursory in nature.
Task 3.2 Deliverables:
• Draft and Final development standards and design guidelines › TASK 3.3 – Implementation Action Plan
As the TOD Specific Plan is a long-term policy investment, it is important to have an actionable implementation plan to provide long term project success. The Implementation Action Plan will provide the tangible actions to be under-taken by various parties involved in the Specific Plan’s implementation. Based on the information and results gathered in Tasks 1-3, The Kimley-Horn Team will prepare an implementation plan that identifies and prioritizes issues/goals that require action in the short and/ or long term. To address specific issues within the implementation plan, the following tasks will be conducted:
• Identify potential economic incentives, funding sources (including regional, state, and federal infrastructure funding sources), or financing structures and other strategies (e.g. Development Opportunity Reserve [D.O.R.™], enhanced infrastructure financing districts or other special district financing, site-specific tax revenue pledges, as may be applicable) to attract development that achieves the plan’s goals and objectives.
• Development of a roadmap framework to the implementation of a potential Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) for the Project Area, including:
» a summary of the fundamentals of EIFD and complementary tools » an explanation of the pros/cons of EIFD development » an overview of the analyses, formation milestones, and potential timelines necessary for EIFD creation » a summary of strategic considerations (such as land ownership and future development, infrastructure needs, potential public/ private sector partners) for EIFD implementation • Provide a housing market and employment opportunity summary that is geared toward TOD development implementation, which includes an overview of economically viable housing development options within the Project Area and potential targets for developing employment opportunities for Pico Rivera residents.

PROPOSAL FOR
Consultant Services for preparation of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan for the
GOLD LINE EASTSIDE EXTENSION AT WASHINGTON AND ROSEMEAD BOULEVARDS City of Pico Rivera | LPPL77001.19 9
review by City staff, the committee members, stakeholders, City council, and planning commission. Kimley-Horn assumes the following general organizational framework for the draft Specific Plan document:
• Chapter 1: Executive
Summary/Introduction
• Chapter 2: Introduction to
Washington/Rosemead Blvd
• Chapter 3: Planning and
Design Framework
• Chapter 4: Land Use and
Development Regulations
• Chapter 5: Design Guidelines

Planning Services
Our team of planning professionals understands the interrelated nature of development policy and employs a “360 degree” view of planning.
We incorporate this holistic approach in our projects, and create plans, programs, and processes that are effective tools for guiding future growth and change. Our areas of expertise in support of the Pico Rivera TOD Specific Plan include:
Specific Plans and General Plans –Kimley-Horn has extensive experience in the development of Specific Plans (TOD and otherwise), primarily focused on existing urbanized environments. Our plans provide for customized development, design guidance, development standards, and entitlement procedures. Additionally, our expertise includes the development of public improvements such as streetscape/urban design, infrastructure,
parking facilities,
and community
amenities. Our team
has also developed
General Plan policies
for numerous
jurisdictions
throughout California
and is well-versed in
the new legislative
requirements,
including AB 1358,
the Complete Streets
Act, AB 32, and SB 375.
Transportation and Mobility – Kimley-Horn understands that quality of life can be improved by efficient mobility through land use patterns that produce greater efficiency, reduce trips, and provide more choices. Our team’s project experience includes a wide variety of transportation modes, including transit, roadways, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities. We also have the benefit of in house capabilities to complete TIA’s and parking studies.
Community Engagement – Kimley-Horn’s planning staff has developed and implemented hundreds of community engagement processes throughout the country. We understand
the dynamic nature of outreach and
have utilized a variety of engagement
techniques, including bilingual facilitation
(we have multiple bilingual staff assigned
to your project), web-based participation,
visual preference surveys, community
workshops, design charrettes, phone
surveys, focus groups, and digital and print media. Our staff is also well versed in conducting workshops for policy makers on planning topics such as mixed-use policies.
Urban Design and Streetscape – Our design professionals have provided comprehensive services for streetscape and urban design projects from design through construction. For all our publicly initiated projects, we understand the important relationship between the public and private realm and provide streetscape and urban amenities that reflect community values and needs. Kimley-Horn’s design professionals have extensive experience in streetscape and landscape plans, city and area-wide design guideline manuals, and post-entitlement streetscape design guidelines. Our focus is on creating a sense of place through appropriate scale, density, land uses, and urban amenities.
For this project we are utilizing the specialized TOD design expertise of Crandall Arambula. Crandall Arambula was established in 1998 to blend visionary planning, design acumen, and practical knowledge in the creation of vibrant and transformative urban places. The firm works across scales of development— region, city, district, corridor, neighborhood and sites—to integrate each community’s vision for growth with land use and transportation planning that balances environmental responsibility, economic vitality, and community character. Crandall Arambula has provided station area TOD plans for communities across the country including projects in Colorado, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, and Canada. The firm’s urban design and planning efforts focus on creating compact mixed-use communities within a pedestrian-friendly environment that is supported by multimodal transportation options.

highly visual, presentations, one-on-one meetings with key stakeholders, and use of ballot response sheets result in politically defensible plans that are supported by the community and adopted by the local agency. The Kimley-Horn Team’s inclusive approach ensures that planning and design efforts reflect the community’s vision for growth— strengthening community character and assets while promoting economic vitality.
Zoning Codes/Development Codes – Our land use regulatory experts have successfully updated zoning policy for multiple public agencies. Our team has authored comprehensive updates to zoning/development codes and provided tailored amendments, such as overlay zones, mixed-use development standards, affordable housing, and TODs.
CEQA/NEPA and Environmental Services – The Kimley-Horn
environmental services group provides complete natural resource and environmental regulatory compliance services for a broad range of practices, including land development, transportation, roadway, water resources, and aviation. Our CEQA practitioners, including biologists, environmental scientists, and engineers, are well versed in all aspects of environmental processes, from Phase I Environmental Site Assessments to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation. We can take a project from conception to final build-out. An in-house environmental services group offers the advantage of closer coordination with the design team, helping to avoid problems related to miscommunication or coordination because the two groups work side-by-side every day. Our environmental specialists and engineers have learned to “speak the same language” and work together to deliver a successful project.
Parking Management Plans – Kimley-Horn has considerable experience performing major parking studies for developments and downtown districts, surface and deck designs, and access, circulation, and parking studies for planned communities, transit centers, shopping centers, universities, and other high activity multimodal centers.
Kimley-Horn develops integrated parking strategies for TODs, mixed-use, and development projects, and is often asked to research parking trends and propose innovations ranging from policies to parking management implementation plans.
Sustainability/Healthy Communities –
Sustainability and healthy communities have
become part of the lexicon of planning. Our
plans and processes seek to incorporate
sustainability and healthy communities’
concepts into our planning projects.
Complete Streets, low impact development
(LID), mobility, safe routes to school, access
to healthy food, and bike/trail planning are
examples of sustainability concepts that
have been incorporated into our planning
documents. We have provided awardwinning sustainability policies to our municipal clients, including TODs, General Plan policies, and urban infill Specific Plans.
Economics – Economic Development and sustainability is key to a successful project. Kimley-Horn has partnered with Keyser Marston, a leader in economic development and fiscal viability to provide economic support on this project. Keyser Marston will utilize primary and secondary research, existing city plans, and previous studies and reports to provide a current description of the local and regional market, economic, demographic, and employment findings. Based on their extensive experience working with local public agencies, the team will provide the City a focused study of the Project Area’s real estate development conditions and will outline specific strategies for targeted TOD.
Infrastructure Master Plans – Infrastructure analysis is an integral part of our planning processes. Our civil engineering experts utilize comprehensive analysis and existing conditions, and provide accurate forecasting of infrastructure needs. Future improvement plans are conceptually designed to identify future facilities improvements and provide the basis for local capital improvement programming and funding.
LACMTA and Grant Program Experience - Our team has recent experience with three METRO grant funded TOD Specific Plans. This provides our team with a strong familiarity with the policies, programs, and toolkits they have available for LA County jurisdictions. Many of the toolkits are based upon fundamental principles of TOD Design, development, and sustainable design. Our collective team has applied, modified, and advanced
PROPOSAL FOR
Consultant Services for preparation of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan for the
GOLD LINE EASTSIDE EXTENSION AT WASHINGTON AND ROSEMEAD BOULEVARDS City of Pico Rivera | LPPL77001.19 15
many of these principles with our work throughout the United States.
We understand the management of grant programs and where efficiencies can be gained as he grant is administered. The Kimley-Horn Team understands the reporting requirements of the grants subject to this project and will help the city in streamlining their reporting requirements.
STRATEGY IN MANAGING SIMILAR PROJECTS
Communication is key. Accessibility and open communication are imperative steps in completing a successful project. The Kimley-Horn Team is committed to working as a team with Pico Rivera; we’re here to help.
We believe that the most effective and technically sound work products evolve through clear lines of communication between all participants. As such, we make sure that project assumptions are clearly understood by all project team members. These assumptions include each team member’s role on a project, the type of product to be prepared, and the approvals contemplated for the work program. Early and continual communication allows the team to resolve issues before they become problems leading to potential project delays and additional costs.
There are multiple ways to maintain good lines of communication, and Kimley-Horn will work with the City to determine which methods best fit the City’s style for this project. The City will have ongoing access to our Project Manager, Dave Barquist, AICP, as well as key team members, telephone and e-mail communications are monitored constantly to provide quick response. This communication will be supplemented by progress meetings with City staff and shareholders, as needed.
Schedule and QC/QA Control
Kimley-Horn insists that each project has a carefully structured scope of services, a corresponding schedule, and an accurately developed budget.
We don’t begin an assignment until these three elements are in place and mutually agreed upon by Kimley-Horn and the City. We know that schedule and quality control are equally important. A project that is behind schedule sacrifices the opportunity for quality reviews. We insist that our project managers build into their schedules adequate time for a thorough quality control review so that our project documents can be thorough, accurate, and complete.
To meet schedules and minimize down time, we move beyond a specific project schedule and work plan. To monitor our staff workload, KimleyHorn employs an intensive forecasting technique known as our “castahead” process. This effort involves assessing our project milestones and staff loading on a weekly, monthly, and six-month basis, drilling down to the project team level. This “cast-ahead” process enables us to assign ample staff and technical resources to complete each project on time and to our clients’ satisfaction.
Kimley-Horn’s formal QC/QA program is based upon assigning experienced, senior professionals who are otherwise qualified to manage a particular project, to serve in a quality control role. For the City of Pico Rivera TOD Specific Plan we have assigned two QC/QA reviewers. This fresh perspective and critical eye provides an extra layer of detailed review to provide the City the best experience possible.
Our internal QC/QA program will include:
• An internal kick-off meeting held with key team members assigned to the job to clearly define the scope, outline sub-task responsibilities, establish schedules, and identify project milestones and goals.
• At the end of each phase, a QC/QA review will be conducted as one of several final checks to make sure that the project deliverable is not only technically correct, but also consistent with your objectives. • Any changes or modifications required to respond to the comments and recommendations of the quality control team will be incorporated during the ongoing analysis prior to
submitting deliverables.

Project: Rancho Los Amigos South Campus TOD Specific Plan, Downey, CA
Kimley-Horn was selected by the City of Downey to develop a comprehensive TOD Specific Plan that will address revitalization and reuse of the existing 171-acre Rancho Los Amigos South Campus.
The Specific Plan will establish a high-intensity regional employment center, including a future Orange Line METRO station, that incorporates residential, commercial, retail and recreational land uses. The Specific Plan will contribute to the creation of a mixed-use, compact and multimodal environment; the promotion of sustainable principles in design and development; enhancement of the pedestrian scale and function of the built environment; the establishment of a complementary mix of cultural uses, public spaces, and outdoor activities; providing stronger connections with local neighborhoods and connectivity with mobility options; the promotion of a family-oriented, culturally-enriched healthy lifestyle; the celebration and reinforcement of Downey and Rancho Los Amigos’ character and history; the enhancement of economic development successes in the area; supporting future regional transportation and transit planning objectives; and positioning the City of Downey to be highly competitive in securing grant funding and alternative funding and financing options.
To date, Kimley-Horn has completed majorly successful outreach activities within the surrounding community, and developed the land use and design strategies through extensive project area analysis. Throughout the development of the Rancho Los Amigos Specific Plan, Kimley-Horn has maintained close communication with the County of Los Angeles, METRO, and the City of Downey to ensure cohesiveness with both the County of Los Angeles’ development plans and Metro’s WSAB corridor extension to the proposed Gardendale Station within the project area. Begun in 2017, Kimley-Horn is on track to complete the project within the proposed schedule per the guidelines of the Metro TOD grant received by the City.

PROJECT SCHEDULE
Staying on schedule and meeting deadlines is a high priority for the Kimley-Horn Team. Critical elements in maintaining schedules include a clear definition of the responsibilities of team members and frequent communication relative to achieve goals in the work effort. Thus, schedule control begins with the preparation of a detailed schedule in Microsoft Project that includes milestone completion dates for specific tasks and the overall project. The schedule identifies task dependencies and relationships, which allows our project managers and clients to understand which tasks must be completed so that other tasks may be accomplished. We will develop for your project, a work plan that allocates commitments by individuals for each task. Twice monthly, our Management Information System generates a Project Effort Report showing effort expended by task. This internal control allows us to make, on a timely basis, any adjustments that may be necessary to maintain schedule and stay within budget.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026
TREASURER’S MONTHLY INVESTMENT TRANSACTION REPORT AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 2026
On May 16, 2025, Moody’s downgraded the United States’ sovereign credit rating from Aaa to Aa1 with a Stable outlook due to rising federal debt and long-term fiscal pressures.
The United States is currently rated Aa1 by Moody’s and AA+ by both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch. While federal agency securities are not direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury, they continue to maintain very high credit quality and strong market liquidity. Staff will continue to monitor credit conditions and coordinate with the City’s investment advisor to ensure the City’s investment portfolio remains sound and consistent with the Investment Policy.
Conclusion:
As of February 28, 2026, the City’s investment portfolio remains highly rated, liquid, and stable. All investments are maintained in accordance with California Government Code Section 53601 and the City’s Investment Policy, which the City Council approved on April 8, 2025.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026
PROCUREMENT OF TWO ELECTRIC VEHICLES AND ONE JACOBSEN ECLIPSE ELITE 360 LITHIUM ELECTRIC GREENS MOWER FOR THE PUBLIC WORKS
DEPARTMENT
Discussion:
The City’s replacement standards generally specify that a vehicle should be over 10 years old or have accumulated 100,000 miles to qualify for replacement. Vehicle Unit No. 131, a 2019 Chevy Colorado, has accumulated excessive service hours, required frequent and extensive repairs, and consumed a substantial amount of fuel despite having 76,500 miles.
Vehicle Unit No. 201, a 2014 Ford F-250, has experienced heavy service hours due to daily operational demands, which have resulted in mechanical strain, with frequent breakdowns and a reduced service lifespan. Vehicle Unit No. 201, almost 12 years old and 87,000 miles, requires frequent repairs and exhibits excessive fuel consumption.
Replacing Vehicle Unit Nos. 131 and 201 with two (2) new electric vehicles is projected to reduce operational costs, eliminate fuel consumption, enhance reliability, and support the City’s sustainability objectives.
The Parks Division presently utilizes five (5) gasoline-powered walk-behind reel mowers to maintain the infields of the City’s baseball fields. These units are over six (6) years old, require extensive repairs, and have been phased out due to new regulations governing small-engine emissions. The acquisition of a fully electric lithium-powered greens mower, to replace the 5 gas mowers, will enable Parks Maintenance staff to sustain efficient and reliable field maintenance equipment. Besides improving operational efficiency, the electric mower will decrease maintenance expenses, minimize downtime, and contribute to the City’s environmental sustainability efforts by removing gasoline dependency and reducing emissions.
The following table outlines the vehicle unit number, year, make, model, current mileage, proposed replacement, and the quoted purchase price.

131 2019 Chevy Colorado 76,500

Silverado EV $78,000
(5) Walk- behind reel

Elite 360 Lithium
Electric Mower $82,000
TOTAL: $238,000
The recommended purchase of the (2) Chevrolet Silverado EV’s and (1) Jacobsen Eclipse Elite 360 Lithium Electric Mower will utilize a cooperative purchasing contract authorized by Section 3.20.030 of the Pico Rivera Municipal Code. Utilizing State contract #1-22-23-20D, and Sourcewell contract number 112624-JCS. Cooperative agreements meet the requirements of Section 3.20.030 of the Pico Rivera Municipal Code and allow CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026

staff to secure the most appropriate vehicle and equipment. Purchasing through vetted cooperative agreements assures that the procurement of goods and services complies with public purchasing regulations, is competitively solicited, and the City receives the most advantageous pricing while expediting the procurement.
Since 1991, local cities have received AB 2766 Subvention Funds to implement programs to reduce air pollution from motor vehicles. The Department of Motor Vehicles collects a Motor Vehicle Registration fee surcharge of $6 per vehicle that the local South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) disburses to regional cities. The City receives approximately $75,000 annually in AQMD funds. These funds are available for various programs, including the purchase and lease of alternative-fuel and zero-emission fleet vehicles and equipment.
Abiding by the AQMD mandate to reduce air pollution, staff have researched various makes and models of passenger zero-emission vehicles for their functionality and overall value. The 2026 Chevy Silverado EV and the Jacobsen Eclipse Elite 360 Lithium Electric Greens Mower were selected for their functionality and compatibility with operational needs.
The aged vehicles being replaced are recommended for disposal by auction to recover any residual value. The Pico Rivera Municipal Code Section 3.20.100 allows the City to sell aged and inoperable vehicles through professional auctioneers. Utilizing an auction process enables the City to secure the highest possible price for the vehicle. It is therefore recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to proceed with the sale of the surplus vehicles at an auction to achieve efficiency and maximize resale value.
Conclusion:
Staff recommend that the City Council authorize the purchase of two (2) 2026 Chevy Silverado fully Electric Vehicles and one (1) Jacobsen Eclipse Elite 360 Lithium Electric Greens Mower in the amount not to exceed $238,000, authorize the appropriation from FY 2025-26 Air Quality Funds (Fund 200) unassigned fund balance for this expense, and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute all related documents for the purchase of the vehicles and equipment. Additionally, authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute any agreements necessary to facilitate the sale or disposal of aged vehicles and equipment.

Meeting Date: March 24, 2026
Subject: ADDITIONAL $44,500 APPROPRIATION FOR ENTERTAINMENT SERVICES AND SUPPLIES – PARKS AND RECREATION
SPECIAL EVENTS EFFORTS
Recommendation:
1. Approve an additional appropriation of $44,500 from the Community Benefit Fund to fund the entertainment and supplies contracts related to the World Cup 2026 Games.
Strategic Priority:
1 - Fiscal & Organizational Sustainability - Create a City government built to adapt to change.
Strategy:
5.1 Increase community participation and inclusion to cultivate a powerful sense of community pride and public awareness.
Fiscal Impact:
The Community Benefit Fund includes $83,500 towards this cost. However, an additional $44,500 is needed to cover the upfront costs to secure any entertainment and supplies contracts (Account No. 181.80.8102-54500) for the Friday, June 26th event. While the total cost of the World Cup 2026 Celebration Hub is not finalized, staff will return to City Council for additional appropriations once those costs are known.
Background:
The City of Pico Rivera (City) has been selected as a 2026 FIFA World Cup Celebration Hub, hosting a multi-day festival on June 26th and 27th. The event will connect several major community corridors and feature the following:
• Soccer tournaments, exhibitions, and youth clinics
• Multiple entertainment stages and jumbo-screen watch parties 12 Back to Agenda Outline
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026
ADDITIONAL $44,500 APPROPRIATION FOR ENTERTAINMENT SERVICES AND SUPPLIES – PARKS AND RECREATION SPECIAL EVENTS EFFORTS
• Cultural and artistic installations
• Local business activation
• Family-friendly activities, immersive experiences, and kids’ zones As the Celebration Hub designation brings regional visibility, foot traffic, and expanded community programming, ensuring high-quality entertainment, sound production, and staging infrastructure is essential to meeting event expectations and accommodating anticipated attendance.
Discussion:
The City’s Parks and Recreation Department has entered the planning and pre-negotiation phase for securing entertainment and a primary performance stage for the two-day festival. Entertainment booking and staging contracts require early commitments to secure availability and pricing. Although grant funding supports core operations of the Open Streets component, grant resources do not cover full entertainment production or staging costs, including:
• Performance stage rental and installation
• Lighting, audio, and technical services
• Performer fees and rider requirements
• Safety and crowd-control equipment related to stage operations • Event production staffing and logistics
To maintain commitments to a high-quality regional showcase and to avoid delay in contracting, a supplemental allocation is needed. The Parks and Recreation Department must begin securing contracts for the June 26th Celebration Zone at Smith Park. Below is an itemized list of the upfront costs that require early payment prior to the games.
Expenditure Estimated Cost
Professional Sound/Stage/Lighting Services $ 20,000
Entertainment - Bands & DJ's 40,000
Professional Decorating Services - Balloons, Draping, etc. 8,000 Portable Restrooms 14,000
Fencing 20,000
Light Towers/Generators/Pig Tails 14,000
Stage & Event Banners, Posters, etc. 5,000
Permits - Encroachment, Health, ABC 7,000
Initial Up-Front Costs to Secure Entertainment and Supplies $ 128,000 Funded: $ 83,500
Unfunded: $ 44,500
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026
ADDITIONAL $44,500 APPROPRIATION FOR ENTERTAINMENT SERVICES AND SUPPLIES – PARKS AND RECREATION SPECIAL EVENTS EFFORTS
Conclusion:
Staff recommends City Council approve an additional appropriation of $44,500 from the Community Benefit Fund to fund the entertainment and supplies contracts related to the June 26th World Cup 2026 Games Celebration at Smith Park. The requested funding would enable the City to finalize negotiations and secure entertainment assets early, ensuring adequate lead time to meet procurement requirements and production schedules.

The City of Pico Rivera (City) anticipates expending no more than approximately $100,000 in fiscal year (FY) 2025–26 under these agreements. The (FY) 2025-26 15 Back to Agenda Outline
PICO RIVERA WATER AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026
VENDOR SERVICES AGREEMENT TO FERGUSON WATER WORKS AND S & J
SUPPLY COMPANY FOR GENERAL WATER INVENTORY SUPPLIES
Adopted Budget already includes funding of $100,000 in Account No. 550.40.4920-54100 (Special Departmental Expenses) for the purchase of water maintenance supplies, no additional appropriations are required at this time. Any remaining costs associated with the agreements will be incorporated into future budget cycles.
Discussion:
The Pico Rivera Water Authority (PRWA) oversees the daily operations of more than 90 miles of water distribution pipeline, 9,500 service connections, 5 active wells, 3 ion exchange treatment facilities, 3 booster pump stations, 3 reservoirs, and 875 fire hydrants. The PRWA is also responsible for distributing and treating water to its customers.
PRWA staff perform repairs and maintenance on the distribution and treatment of the water system by procuring necessary materials. Due to fluctuations in material costs and availability, the PRWA has had increased difficulty procuring the necessary equipment and materials for daily operations and repairs.
On January 7, 2026, the Request for Bids (RFB) for inventory supplies for the PRWA was published on PlanetBids through the City’s website portal. Six (6) bids were received through PlanetBids on February 19, 2026.
The RFB was organized into three (3) distinct categories: A, B, and C. Category A included components made from bronze and brass, such as various ductile piping, couplings, and valves. Category B encompassed gate and butterfly valves, clamps, and fire hydrants. Category C focused on gaskets, meter boxes and lids. Staff believed that segmenting the RFB into these categories would attract more vendors who specialize in specific materials, thereby encouraging a broader range of bids and reducing reliance on a single vendor's inventory at the time of material purchase.
The following table summarizes the bids received:
Category Vendor Total Bid
A Ferguson Waterworks $118,297
A Western Water Works Supply $119,391
A Core & Main $128,437
A S & J Supply Co. $132,071
A OC WinWater $248,281

C Ferguson Waterworks $86,073
C Western Water Works Supply $121,087
C OC WinWater $218,113
C S & J Supply Co. Non-Responsive
C Core & Main Non-Responsive
Following a thorough review of the submitted proposals, staff identified Ferguson Waterworks as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for Category A in the amount of $118,297; S & J Supply Co. as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for Category B in the amount of $86,992; and Feguson Waterworks as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for Category C in the amount of $86,073 Both S&J Supply Co. and Core & Main were deemed non-responsive in Category C as both did not provide unit price responses to all bid items listed in Category C.
Conclusion:
Staff recommend awarding Vendor Agreements for general water inventory supplies to Ferguson Waterworks and to S & J Supply Co. Staff also recommend authorizing the Public Works Director to approve change orders up to 10%, not to exceed a combined $100,000, for emergencies or unforeseen contingencies.

To: Mayor and City Council
From: City Manager
Meeting Date: March 24, 2026
Subject: PURPLE HEART MONUMENT FINAL DESIGN – VETERANS
MEMORIAL PLAZA
Recommendation:
1. Approve the design and inscription of the Purple Heart Monument to be installed at the Veterans Memorial Plaza.
Strategic Priority:
5 - Community Engagement - Foster a connected, collaborative, and actively participating City and workforce.
Strategy:
5.1 Increase community participation and inclusion to cultivate a powerful sense of community pride and public awareness.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funding is included in the fiscal year (FY) 2025–26 Budget within the General Fund (Account No. 100.80.8220-54400) to support this project. There is an available balance of approximately $9,291 remaining for the Purple Heart Monument Project. No additional appropriations are required at this time.
Background:
On February 13, 2024, the City Council approved a resolution designating the City of Pico Rivera as a Purple Heart City, joining the ranks of other California cities in recognizing and honoring recipients of the Purple Heart. With this designation, Pico Rivera became the 107th Purple Heart City in the State.
On March 25, 2025, the City Council approved a budget allocation of $20,000 for the purchase and installation of a Purple Heart Monument. The monument is intended to honor members of the community who were wounded or killed in combat while serving in 16 Back to Agenda Outline
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 24, 2026
PURPLE HEART MONUMENT FINAL DESIGN – VETERANS MEMORIAL PLAZA
the United States Armed Forces in defense of the nation’s freedoms which are enjoyed by all Americans.
Veterans Memorial Plaza was selected as the site for the monument, as its design complements the Plaza’s existing features and integrates seamlessly with the surrounding environment. The monument will include a granite base measuring 48 inches wide, 8 inches high, and 12 inches deep, consistent with the existing plaza pillars. The monument itself will measure 44 inches wide, 40 inches high, and 8 inches deep. The design will feature engraved memorial text along with a full-color replica of the Purple Heart Medal.
Over the past year, staff awaited delivery of a custom granite slab sourced overseas to ensure consistency with the existing monuments at Veterans Memorial Plaza. Due to the need to match the exact color and material, the slab was procured from India and transported by sea, resulting in an extended delivery timeline.
Discussion:
In January 2026, the granite slab arrived at the Port of Long Beach. Soon after, staff inspected and approved the granite slab for etching. Staff subsequently developed design concepts and presented two options to the Veterans Commission for consideration. On March 18, 2026, the Veterans Commission unanimously approved Design A (Enclosure 1) in a 5-0 vote and recommended it for City Council approval.
The City takes great pride in the many military veterans who call Pico Rivera home. The proposed Purple Heart Monument will serve as a meaningful tribute to recognize and honor residents who were wounded or lost their lives while serving their country. The installation of the monument will enhance the Veterans Memorial Plaza by adding historical significance and creating a space for reflection, remembrance, and community education.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the design and inscription to ensure the granite monument is completed and ready for unveiling in conjunction with Memorial Day 2026.
