28.4 In all cases of damage or destruction to the Premises or Building, Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of Rent, Real Property Taxes, and all other charges under the Lease until the Premises are restored. The reduction shall be based on the extent to which the Premises, Building and parking, in Tenant' s reasonable judgment, are unusable or inaccessible by Tenant, including without limitation, Tenant' s parking rights.

28.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 28, Landlord shall not be obligated to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises or Building when the damage or destruction occurs during the last twelve ( 12) months of the term of this Lease and Tenant does not elect to exercise any option to extend the Lease term.

If Tenant does not exercise its right to terminate, then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect except that Tenant' s Rent, Real Property Taxes, and other charges under this Lease shall be reduced proportionately due to any partial or temporary taking which does not result in termination of this Lease. 35 11

29.2 Tenant shall be entitled to receive the part of the award attributable to or prosecute a direct claim against the condemning authority, if necessary, for: a) Tenant' s loss of business; b) the cost of Tenant financed alterations or improvements paid for by Tenant in excess of any Tenant Improvement Allowance or other amounts paid by Landlord for alterations or improvements; c) the cost of removal of improvements, trade fixtures, furniture and other personal property belonging to Tenant; d) relocation costs; e) the market value of the Lease, including the excess of the fair rental value of the Premises over the actual net received under the Lease; f) compensation for loss of goodwill; and g) any other amounts to which Tenant is entitled under applicable law.

TITLE

RECEIVE AND FILE A LETTER OF SUPPORT ENCOURAGING THE GOVERNOR TO SIGN SENATE BILL 799, WHICH, IF APPROVED BY THE STATE, WOULD BROADEN THE SOUTH BAY REGIONAL HOUSING TRUST’S POWERS AND UPDATE ITS BOARD STRUCTURE

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On March 10, 2026, the City Council approved the Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) to formally join the South Bay Regional Housing Trust (SBRHT). The South Bay Cities Council of Government (SBCCOG) worked with Senator Ben Allen’s Office to enact an amendment to the enabling legislation for the SBRHT (Senate Bill 1444) to address issues identified during the feasibility process. Senate Bill (SB) 799 serves as the amending legislation. On July 21, 2026, the City Council received and filed a letter of support for SB 799. On August 31, 2026, staff was notified that the bill had reached the Governor’s desk for signature and submitted a letter of support encouraging the Governor to sign the bill.

The Legislative Action Platform authorizes the submission of position letters prior to City Council review when an immediate response is required, provided that the letter is reviewed and approved by the City Manager. The report presents one submitted letter to the City Council to receive and file.

BACKGROUND
Senate Bill (SB) 799 (Allen) would revise the joint powers authority structure of the SBRHT by expanding its scope to include the preservation of existing affordable housing and the planning and construction of moderate-income housing using private resources. The bill also allows the designation of alternate board members, including non-elected individuals, while limiting non-elected alternates to voting in no more than 75% of meetings. SB 799 shifts board composition, appointment, and vacancy procedures to be governed by the JPA rather than the SBCCOG. In addition, the bill requires all directors and alternates to comply with board adopted conflict of interest code and provides greater flexibility in scheduling annual elections for the Chair and Vice Chair.

Overall, these changes seek to strengthen the SBRHT by broadening its capacity to facilitate affordable and moderate-income housing, and modernizing its governance structure to improve flexibility and accountability.

COORDINATION
The City Manager’s Office prepared the position letter and this report.

RE: Requesting Signature on SB 799 (Allen)
Dear Governor Newsom:

Tel: 310.697.3653
Redondo.erg
The City of Redondo Beach strongly supports SB 799 (Allen), which makes several important revisions to the South Bay Regional Housing Trust (SBRHT).

These updates will allow the SBRHT to better meet regional housing needs by serving a broader range of income levels including moderate income workforce households, expanding its ability to preserve existing affordable housing, and strengthening its governance structure to ensure qualified and consistent Board representation.

Cities across the South Bay are facing increasing difficulty meeting their state mandated housing goals, particularly for extremely low, very low, and low income households, and now moderate-income households as well. Workforce families often earn too much to qualify for traditional affordable housing subsidies yet cannot afford market rents, placing them at heightened risk of displacement. At the same time, naturally occurring affordable housing units across the region are being lost faster than new units can be built. Because these production and preservation challenges cross city boundaries, a regional state authorized mechanism is needed. SB 799 provides that solution by updating the statutory framework for the SBRHT so it can operate more effectively and meet statewide housing objectives at the regional level.

The South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG) and its member cities have spent several years evaluating regional housing trust models. Through a REAP 2.0 grant from the Department of Housing and Community Development and the Southern California Association of Governments, the SBCCOG 48 49

AND FIRST READING

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On July 21, 2026, City Council held a discussion regarding the City’s hedge ordinance. After that discussion, City Council directed City staff to pursue a revised hedge ordinance following the recommendations of Councilmembers Behrendt and Obagi. On July 22, 2026, Councilmember Behrendt submitted a proposed revised ordinance for consideration. It was distributed to City Departments for review and input.

On September 1, 2026, City staff presented the revised ordinance to City Council for further discussion. The current proposed ordinance incorporates a new definition for “height” along with staff feedback and the revisions requested by Council. Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Council approve the proposed ordinances.

BACKGROUND
On September 1, 2026, City staff recommended:

1. Adding definitions for height and hedge to the revised ordinance and related sections;

2. Updating the penalty section to classify violations related to hedges as either a misdemeanor or infraction;

Page 1 of 2 ends

50 H.7., File # 26-1098 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026

3. Adding a definition of “bona fide complainant” and Good Faith requirements;

4. Allowing the city to enforce critical and/or urgent violations;

5. Including a city-wide maintenance requirement; and

6. Adding to the purpose section of the ordinance to capture intentions.

Upon further review, it was determined that this amendment focused on the enforcement of hedge violations, rather than zoning. The ordinance related to hedges will be codified in Chapter 38 of Title 4 of the Redondo Beach Municipal Code (“RBMC”). Title 10 will later be amended to be consistent with this new chapter. The applicable penalty sections for violations of the RBMC are codified in Sections 1-2.01 and 1-2.03. Each of these sections will need to be amended to reflect the changes proposed, and if approved, would be brought back for second reading and Council adoption on September 15, 2026. The ordinances would take effect 30 days later, on October 15, 2026. Title 10 will be amended at a later time to become consistent with this new chapter.

The City Attorney's Office coordinated with the City Manager’s Office, Community Development, Engineering, as well as Councilmembers Behrendt and Obagi in connection with the preparation of this report.

WHEREAS, the City has the authority to regulate to ensure the public’s health, safety and general welfare; and
WHEREAS, the City has received multiple complaints about hedges as well as multiple questions about the enforcement of hedges; and WHEREAS, on July 21, 2026, the City Council of the City of Redondo Beach, California, held a discussion on the City’s hedge-related ordinances and directed staff to pursue a revised hedge ordinance;

This chapter establishes supplemental definitions, maintenance requirements, public safety and nuisance standards, and enforcement procedures applicable to hedges and vegetation throughout all zones of the City of Redondo Beach. The purposes of this section are to:
(a) Provide for light, air, and privacy for residents and property owners throughout the City;

HEDGE ORDINANCE
Page No. 2

(f) Ensure that hedges are kept free of overgrown, unsightly or hazardous conditions and do not encroach upon utilities or the public right-of-way; and (g) Establish a fair, efficient, and legally sound enforcement framework that prioritizes genuine neighbor impacts and public safety concerns, while minimizing unnecessary enforcement actions for minor, trivial, or inconsequential violations.

Nothing in this chapter supersedes, limits, or replaces any remedy or enforcement authority available under any other provision of this Code, including without limitation Chapter 10 of Title 4 (Nuisances), nor does anything in this chapter prevent enforcement of any violation that also constitutes a violation of another provision of this Code or of local, state, or federal law.
4-38.02 Definitions.

For purposes of this chapter, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below.
“Bona Fide Complainant” shall mean an owner or occupant of record on a lot located within 100 feet of the lot with an alleged violation.
“Critical and/or Urgent Violation” shall mean a violation of this chapter that constitutes any of the following, as determined by the City Manager, or designees:

HEDGE ORDINANCE
Page No. 3
(d) Emergency access. Any hedge or vegetation that obstructs, conceals, or impedes access to gates, entryways, pathways, or any portion of the property by emergency responders, or that prevents emergency responders from clearly observing conditions at or around the property from the public right-of-way. (e) Crime prevention and natural surveillance. Any hedge or vegetation located within a required front setback that eliminates or substantially reduces the visibility of front doors, ground-floor windows, or the front yard of a residential or commercial property from the public right-of-way, in a manner that provides concealment for criminal activity as determined by the Chief of Police or designee.
(f) Nighttime safety. Any hedge or vegetation that substantially blocks the illumination of driveways, intersections, entryways, or sidewalks by streetlights, porch lights, or other required or customary lighting, in a manner that creates a safety hazard for pedestrians or motorists.
(g) Fire hazard and defensible space. Any hedge, tree, shrub, or other vegetation of flammable character maintained within twenty (20) feet of any dwelling or structure used for human habitation where the vegetation is dead, dying, or inadequately maintained, such that it presents a fire hazard. (h) Public right-of-way encroachment. Any hedge or vegetation that encroaches into, over, or upon any public sidewalk, parkway, alley, street, or other public right-ofway in a manner that obstructs pedestrian or vehicular traffic, impedes ADArequired pedestrian access, or poses a hazard to persons using the right-of-way, including without limitation vegetation higher than twenty-four (24) inches in a parkway, and toxic, sharp, spiky, or nuisance vegetation adjacent to or overhanging a public right-of-way.
(i) Walled-off streetscape. A continuous hedge exceeding six (6) feet in height, extending along a single street frontage for a cumulative linear distance of fifty (50) feet or more, whether on a single parcel or across two or more immediately adjacent parcels under common or related ownership or control. (j) Other public health or safety hazard. Any other condition involving a hedge or vegetation that the City Manager, or designees, determines presents a risk to public health, safety, or welfare based on objective, articulable conditions. “Hedge” shall mean a continuous living screen, barrier, or boundary marker formed by a row, series, or grouping of two (2) or more closely spaced woody shrubs, bushes, trees, or other vegetation planted, cultivated, or maintained in close proximity so as to form, or that has grown to form, a substantially continuous physical or visual obstruction to passage or view, having a height greater than twelve (12) inches. “Height” shall mean the vertical distance from the top of the hedge to the grade (ground) directly below.

4-38.03 Safety, Nuisance, and Right-of-Way Violations
The following conditions constitute violations of this chapter and are enforceable by the City independently of, and without regard to, the Bona Fide Complainant requirement set forth in section 4-38.05 below. Each condition described in this section may also independently constitute a violation of RBMC §4-10.02 or other applicable provisions of this Code or state or federal law, and nothing in this section limits or supersedes that independent enforcement authority.
(a) Traffic sight obstructions. It shall be a violation of this section for any property owner or occupant to tolerate, allow, or permit:
(1) Any tree, hedge or vegetation to be so located with respect to a driveway or street intersection as to prevent a clear view of approaching motor vehicles, pedestrians, or the traveling public in sufficient time for a vehicle driven at a reasonable speed to come to a full stop before such intersection or driveway approach is reached; or
(2) Any Visual Obstruction within a Sight Triangle that exceeds the height limits established in sections 10-2.1524 or 10-5.1524, as applicable. (b) Obstructions over and upon streets, sidewalks, and public rights-of-way. It shall be a violation of this section for any property owner or occupant to tolerate, allow, or permit any hedge, or limbs, branches, or other vegetation to be so situated or located as to encroach upon, obstruct, or overhang any public street, alley, parkway, or sidewalk in a manner that:
62 ORDINANCE NO. 3317-26

HEDGE ORDINANCE
Page No. 5
(1) obstructs or may reasonably be expected to obstruct the free passage of vehicular or pedestrian traffic;
(2) impedes or may reasonably be expected to impede ADA-required pedestrian access; or
(3) poses a risk to persons traversing streets, paths, or sidewalks in the immediate area.

A violation under this section does not require proof of actual injury or endangerment; a reasonable likelihood of harm based on objective, observable conditions is sufficient.
(c) Fire and flammability hazard. It shall be a violation of this section for any property owner or occupant to tolerate, allow, or permit any hedge, tree, shrub, or other vegetation of flammable character to be maintained within twenty (20) feet of any dwelling or other structure used for human habitation where the vegetation is dead, dying, or inadequately maintained, such that it presents a fire hazard. (d) Obstruction of traffic control devices, address numbers, and emergency access.

It shall be a violation of this section for any property owner or occupant to tolerate, allow, or permit any hedge or vegetation to obstruct the clear visibility from the public right-of-way of any traffic control device, property address numbers, or fire hydrants, or to obstruct emergency responder access to the property.
4-38.04 Maintenance and Encroachment
(a) Maintenance required. All hedges on any property within the City, regardless of zone, shall remain free of overgrown, unsightly or hazardous conditions and be maintained at all times. Maintenance includes regular trimming to prevent overgrowth beyond permitted heights, repair or removal of damaged or structurally unsound sections, and removal of debris or dead vegetation.

Maintenance violations that affect utilities or the public right-of-way are enforceable by a complaint submitted by a Bona Fide Complainant or by cityinitiated action where the condition constitutes a Critical and/or Urgent Violation. (b) No encroachment onto public right-of-way. No hedge shall encroach into, over, or upon any public sidewalk, parkway, alley, street, or other public right-of-way.

Encroachment onto the public right-of-way constitutes a Critical and/or Urgent Violation enforceable by the City without a complaint submitted by a Bona Fide Complainant.
4-38.05 Enforcement
(a) General. Enforcement of the height and location standards of this section shall be primarily complaint-driven for violations that are not Critical and/or Urgent 63 ORDINANCE NO. 3317-26

HEDGE ORDINANCE
Page No. 6
Violations. Nothing in this subsection restricts any person's right to petition the City or submit information to City staff, nor does anything in this subsection limit the City's enforcement authority for Critical and/or Urgent Violations as defined in section 4-38.02, for violations described in Section 4-38.03, or for violations of RBMC §4-10.02 or any other applicable provision of this Code or local, state, or federal law.
(b) Bona Fide Complainant requirement — non-Critical and/or Urgent Violations.

Absent a written complaint submitted by a Bona Fide Complainant as defined in section 4-38.02, the City has no duty to investigate a violation that is not a Critical and/or Urgent Violation. The submission of a complaint by a Bona Fide Complainant does not, standing alone, obligate the City to initiate enforcement action; the City retains full discretion, after an investigation, whether to initiate enforcement action under this section. Anonymous complaints and complaints from persons who do not qualify as Bona Fide Complainants may be logged for informational purposes but do not obligate the City to initiate an investigation or formal enforcement action.
(c) City discretion — Critical and/or Urgent Violations. The City retains full discretion whether to initiate enforcement action for Critical and/or Urgent Violations. (d) Good faith requirement. Complaints submitted under this section shall be made in good faith based on a genuine belief that a violation exists and that the complainant is materially affected by the alleged violation. The City reserves the right to decline to pursue enforcement where it determines that a complaint has been submitted for an improper purpose, including without limitation harassment of a property owner or an attempt to manipulate City enforcement resources for purposes unrelated to the welfare of the complaining party. A pattern of complaints by the same complainant targeting multiple unrelated properties in different parts of the City within a short period of time is a factor the City may consider in evaluating whether a complaint was submitted for an improper purpose.
4-38.06 Notice and Opportunity to Cure
(a) Standard notice procedure. Prior to initiating formal enforcement proceedings for a violation that is not a Critical and/or Urgent Violation, the City shall provide the property owner with written notice of the alleged violation. The notice shall:
(1) Identify the specific provision(s) of this chapter, Title 10, or other applicable provision of this Code alleged to be violated;
(2) Describe the condition constituting the alleged violation with reasonable specificity;
(3) State the corrective action required to achieve compliance; 64 ORDINANCE NO. 3317-26

HEDGE ORDINANCE
Page No. 7
(4) Provide a minimum of sixty (60) days from the first date of notice to achieve voluntary compliance; and
(5) Advise the property owner of the right to contact the City to discuss the alleged violation and to submit information or evidence relevant to the enforcement determination.
(b) Critical and/or Urgent Violations. The notice and cure period in subsection (a) shall not apply to Critical and/or Urgent Violations. For such violations, the City may proceed to enforcement upon such notice as is reasonable under the circumstances.
(c) No waiver. The provision of notice under subsection (a) shall not be construed as a waiver of any enforcement right or remedy available to the City. 4-38.07 Penalties — Infractions and Misdemeanors
(a) Classification. Violations of this chapter are offenses that may be prosecuted as either an infraction or a misdemeanor, in the discretion of the City Attorney's Office, depending on the nature, severity, circumstances, and history of the violation, consistent with RBMC §1-2.01(b). Penalties shall be assessed consistent with RBMC §1-2.02.
(b) Cumulative violations. Each day that a violation of this chapter continues after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period constitutes a separate offense.
(c) Preservation of remedies. Nothing in this chapter limits the authority of the City to pursue abatement, civil penalties, injunctive relief, or any other remedy available under this Code or applicable local, state, or federal law. Nothing in this chapter limits the rights of any person to pursue any civil or other remedy available under California law or any other applicable law. Enforcement under this chapter does not preclude concurrent or subsequent enforcement under RBMC §4-10.02 or any other applicable provision of this Code or local, state, or federal law.” SECTION 2. INCONSISTENT PROVISIONS. Any provisions of the Redondo Beach Municipal Code, or appendices thereto, or any other ordinances of the City inconsistent herewith, to the extent of such inconsistencies and no further, are hereby repealed.

SECTION 3. SEVERANCE. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this ordinance and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, and phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared invalid or unconstitutional. 65 ORDINANCE NO. 3317-26

SECTION 4. PUBLICATION AND EFFECTIVE DATE.

TITLE

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON ESTABLISHING A CITY FACILITY NAMING POLICY

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City’s Strategic Plan includes an item directing staff to present a City Facility Naming Policy for City Council discussion. The proposed draft policy, which was developed by the Naming Policy Subcommittee (Subcommittee), is outlined in this report along with a recommendation for the City Council’s consideration.

BACKGROUND
Staff researched several cities with established naming policies and used those examples to help draft the proposed City Facility Naming Policy, ensuring the recommended criteria and procedures reflect best practices and align with the City’s community values.

The draft policy defines three types of facilities, Major Facilities, Neighborhood Facilities, and Park Structures, and establishes clear criteria for naming based on geographic or historical significance, recognition of individuals who have demonstrated exceptional community service, and acknowledgment of donors whose contribution were instrumental in the acquisition, construction, or long-term support of a facility.

The draft policy outlines a vetting process to ensure proposed honorees and corporate sponsors meet City values and ethical standards. The draft policy also specifies that current elected officials, City employees, and individuals with disqualifying backgrounds are not eligible. For Major and Neighborhood Facilities, corporate naming rights may be considered through a City Council directed solicitation or proposal process. Proposals are evaluated based on the sponsor’s reputation and alignment with the facility’s mission. Naming rights are time limited and may be revoked if a sponsor’s conduct or reputation no longer reflects community standards. The draft policy also includes restrictions to protect historic City landmarks and prohibit names that are discriminatory, political, inappropriate, duplicative, or confusing.

The draft policy details the naming process, including application requirements, review by the Public Amenities Commission, public notice, and final approval by a four-fifths vote of the City Council.

Applicants are responsible for application fees, administrative costs, and signage expenses.

Renaming is discouraged and allowed only in limited situations, such as changes in facility use or when an honoree’s reputation no longer aligns with City values. The draft policy also clarifies that existing facility names are grandfathered but may be reconsidered through the renaming process, if

82 N.1., File # 26-1069 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026
existing facility names are grandfathered but may be reconsidered through the renaming process, if needed. Finally, the draft policy reaffirms the City Council’s authority to amend the guidelines as needed.

The Subcommittee recommends that the City Council provide feedback and direction on the draft policy and direct staff to return with a resolution to formally adopt and implement the City Facility Naming Policy.

COORDINATION
The Naming Policy Subcommittee (including Mayor Light, Councilmembers Obagi and Behrendt, Waterfront and Community and Community Services Director Elizabeth Hause, and Assistant to the City Manager Jane Chung) developed the draft policy. The City Manager’s Office prepared this report.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item at this time.

83 CITY FACILITY NAMING POLICY
A. Purpose and Legal Authority
This Policy establishes the criteria and procedures under which the City of Redondo Beach may name or rename City facilities, including to recognize significant historical, geographic, and community contributions, through the sale of naming rights, and to generate supplemental revenue for the maintenance and development of City facilities.

Naming and renaming City facilities is a discretionary act of the City Council.

B. Definitions

1. Major Facility: a city‑owned building or park constructed for permanent public use.

2. Neighborhood Facility: a smaller city‑owned space or structure located within a major facility, including but not limited to recreation courts, trail segments, athletic fields, meeting rooms, or community-use spaces such as Senior Centers or Community Centers.

3. Park Structures: minor structures within a park, including but not limited to benches, shade structures, fences, or playground equipment.

C. Criteria for Naming
To be considered for naming, a proposed name must meet at least one of the following criteria:

1. Geographic and Historical Significance
a. Reflects the facility’s geographic location, a significant natural feature, or an adjacent subdivision, street, or school, to help the public identify the facility’s location within the community.
b. Commemorates historical events, groups, or individuals of lasting importance to the City, region, state, or nation.

2. Individuals
a. Individuals who have demonstrated exceptional community service or made significant contributions that support the facility’s mission may be recognized if they meet one or more of the following:
i. Held leadership roles in civic organizations dedicated to community improvement.
ii. Led or promoted community events or activities that enhanced local quality of life.
b. A minimum one‑year waiting period applies after an individual’s death unless waived by a 4/5ths vote of the City Council.
c. Notwithstanding subsections (a)–(b) above, an individual (living or deceased) may be eligible for naming without regard to the one-year waiting period where the individual or a donor on the individual’s behalf contributes 84 $5,000,000 as adjusted by CPI* from the enactment date of this ordinance [subject to negotiation] or more in cash, land, or equivalent value, toward the acquisition, construction, or endowment of the facility, subject to City Council approval and the vetting process described in Section 4.

3. Donations
a. Individuals who provided major contributions or gifts that enabled the acquisition or development of the facility.
b. The scale of the facility named should reflect the significance of the honoree’s contribution. Consideration may include:
i. Donation of land that represented a substantial portion of the facility. ii. Contribution of at least 50% of capital construction costs. iii. Establishment of an endowment covering at least 50% of the facility’s estimated useful life for maintenance or programming.

4. Vetting Process
a. At the request of the City Council, the City may conduct a diligent investigation of a proposed honoree or sponsoring corporation, including a review of publicly available information (including court records, media coverage, and, where applicable, professional or regulatory sanctions). b. Individuals with a disqualifying background, if determined by the City Council through any investigation, may not be approved. c. The following names shall not be considered:
i. Current elected or appointed officials
ii. Individuals currently employed by the city or a municipal entity

5. Other
a. Naming rights are honorary and promotional only. They do not provide the honoree, applicant, or sponsoring corporation with any ownership interest or decision-making authority over the facility.

D. Corporate Naming Rights
City Council may select naming rights for major facilities and neighborhood facilities.

Council may issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) or solicit proposals through other appropriate methods. Corporate logos, brands, or insignias may be incorporated in the facility signage when appropriate, provided they do not result in over‑commercialization of the public asset.

1. Proposals will be evaluated based on:
a. The corporation’s overall reputation
b. Alignment of the corporation’s products or services with the facility’s purpose.
c. Duration and financial value of the proposed naming rights i. Naming rights typically span 5–20 years and expire at the end of the agreed term unless renewed at the City’s discretion.
85 ii. If a facility is demolished or replaced, naming rights may be transferred but are not guaranteed.
iii. Naming rights cannot extend beyond the operational life of the corporation, or, where the facility is held by the City under a ground lease or similar agreement with another entity, the remaining term of the City’s leasehold or operational interest in the facility, whichever is shorter.
d. Conflict-of-interest and ethics review consistent with the City’s Conflict of Interest Code and applicable Fair Political Practices Commission regulations (2 Cal. Code Regs. §§ 18110–18997), including disclosure of any financial relationship between the proposed sponsor or donor and any City official or employee.

2. At the discretion of the City Council, as determined by a 4/5ths vote, the City may revoke naming rights at any time if the corporation’s reputation, behavior, or public actions no longer align with the City’s values or community standards. Naming rights may also be terminated immediately, without compensation or refund to the sponsor, in the event of the sponsor’s insolvency, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the filing of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy petition. All costs related to signage removal or rebranding costs associated with such a termination shall be borne by the sponsor or drawn from a deposit collected at the time the naming rights agreement is executed.

E. Restrictions on Naming

1. Major Facilities and Park Structures are not eligible for individual naming unless proposed and approved by the City Council.
a. Park structures such as trees or plaques fall under the City’s Commemorative Donation Program.
b. The following are not eligible for renaming:
i. Civic Center
ii. 9/11 Memorial
iii. Veterans Park
iv. Redondo Beach Historic Library
v. Facilities for which the City lacks legal authority to grant a naming right, including facilities owned and controlled entirely by another governmental entity.

2. Restrictions for naming Neighborhood Facilities:
a. Duplicate names of existing City facilities will not be considered. b. Facilities will not be subdivided for naming unless clear, existing physical divisions are present (e.g., roads, waterways).
c. Names that are discriminatory or derogatory based on protected characteristics will not be considered.
86 d. Names may not promote political figures, affiliations, ideologies, or religions e. Names that are overly complex, corrupted, modified, or profane names will not be considered.
f. At the discretion of the City Council, as determined by a 4/5ths vote of the City Council, at any point in time, the City may revoke naming rights if the individual’s reputation, behavior, or public actions no longer align with the City’s values or community standards,
F. Naming Process

87 f. The City Council reviews the request at a regular meeting. If the City Council rejects the request, the process ends.
g. All Neighborhood Facility names require approval by a 4/5ths vote of the City Council. City Council decisions are final.

Applicable fees will be based on the City’s Master Fee Schedule. Application fees are due at the time of submission and are non-refundable.

H. Guidelines for Renaming
Renaming is strongly discouraged and should only occur following careful review.

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON POTENTIAL SALARY ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE CITY

CLERK, CITY TREASURER AND MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL POSITIONS IN ADVANCE OF THE MARCH 2027 REGULAR ELECTION

PROVIDE DIRECTION REGARDING THE INTRODUCTION OF SALARY ADJUSTMENT ORDINANCE(S) AT THE SEPTEMBER 15, 2026 CITY COUNCIL MEETING

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2005, the City Council adopted Resolution CC-0505-56 to establish a process for consideration of future pay and/or benefit adjustments for elected officials. The Resolution directs the Budget and Finance Commission to make recommendations to the City Council regarding elected official pay and potential adjustments in advance of the filing period for a regular election. The 2027 regular municipal election will cover the City Clerk, City Treasurer, and two City Council seats (District 3 and District 5). The filing period for the March 2027 election will open on November 9, 2026. Therefore, adjustments to salaries, if any, must be codified via ordinance no later than October 6, 2026.

The City Council last provided direction regarding the salaries for the Mayor and City Council, City Clerk, and City Treasurer positions in 2022. At that time, the Council voted to increase the Mayor and City Council salaries, beginning with the commencement of each forthcoming term. The City Council also increased the City Clerk’s salary by 2% per year for the four years of the City Clerk’s subsequent term. The City Council did not make any changes to the City Treasurer’s salary.

BACKGROUND
City Clerk
The compensation and benefits for the City Clerk was last set by the City Council, via Ordinance 3246-22, which was adopted in 2022. The ordinance established the City Clerk monthly base salary in April 2023 at $10,875 per month, with annual 2% increases through 2026. The monthly base salary is currently set at $11,540 per month, effective April 1, 2026, and will not change without the adoption of a new ordinance.

The City Charter requires that any changes to the City Clerk’s base salary must be made at least 30 days prior to the nomination period for a new four-year term. It cannot be increased or decreased from that point until the completion of a subsequent four-year term. With the opening of the nomination period being on November 9, 2026, any recommended salary changes will need to be

Page 1 of 6 ends

92 N.2., File # 26-1096 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026
nomination period being on November 9, 2026, any recommended salary changes will need to be codified by the City Council by ordinance no later than October 6, 2026.

In light of this upcoming deadline, staff conducted a monthly base salary survey for the City Clerk position, using the agreed upon survey cities that have previously been negotiated with the various City bargaining units. Although some of the cities are outside of the immediate area, the cities were selected due to their similar size and market comparability to Redondo Beach. Staff surveyed both full-time and part-time City Clerk positions, with some being elected positions, and some being appointed positions.

The monthly base salary information below is current as of July 2026:

City Title Part-Time or
Full-Time
Monthly Salary
Culver City City Clerk FT $18,124
El Segundo City Clerk PT $3,375
Gardena City Clerk PT $1,000
Hawthorne City Clerk PT $833
Hermosa Beach City Clerk FT $13,607
Huntington Beach City Clerk FT $12,123
Lawndale City Clerk PT $350
Manhattan Beach City Clerk FT $21,541
Pasadena City Clerk FT $23,375
Rancho Palos Verdes City Clerk FT $16,310
Torrance City Clerk FT $15,799
West Hollywood City Clerk FT $20,144
Redondo Beach City Clerk FT $11,540
Median Salary $13,607
Survey results indicate that the Redondo Beach City Clerk position currently ranks below the median for full time City Clerks in comparable cities.

The Redondo Beach City Clerk oversees four full time employees and is responsible for elections, records management, City Council, agency and commission agendas and minutes, administering the Commission appointment process, maintaining the City’s legislative history, and several other functions.

Per ordinance, the City Clerk position also receives the same benefits as full-time employees in the Management and Confidential Employee Unit. No changes to these benefits are currently being proposed.

The Budget and Finance Commission reviewed this information at two meetings, on August 13, 2026, and again on August 27, 2026. On August 27, 2026 the Commission made a motion (attached) that recommends the City Council increase the City Clerk’s salary “by the same rate and at the same time as merit increases are provided for senior (city) staffers.” The Commission indicated that the City Clerk is a full-time position, similar to full-time City staff, while taking into consideration the City’s

Page 2 of 6 ends

93 N.2., File # 26-1096 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026
Clerk is a full-time position, similar to full-time City staff, while taking into consideration the City’s challenging fiscal situation.

City Treasurer
On June 3, 2014, at the recommendation of the former City Treasurer, the City Council considered information regarding a compensation reduction for the City Treasurer position. The City Council ultimately voted to reduce the base salary of the City Treasurer from $9,746 per month ($116,952 annually) to $2,083.33 per month ($25,000 annually), and the salary remains the same in 2026. This vote took place after the Budget and Finance Commission recommended no change to the salary.

During that timeframe, voters approved Measure CT, which was an amendment to the City Charter, that removed the full-time status of the City Treasurer position and made it into a part-time position.

Staff recently conducted a monthly base salary survey for the City Treasurer position, using the same survey cities that have previously been negotiated with the various City bargaining units. Although some of the cities are outside of the immediate area, the cities were selected due to their similar size and comparability to Redondo Beach. Staff surveyed both full-time and part-time City Treasurer positions, with some positions being elected as dedicated City Treasurers, and others having the treasurer duties conducted by the City’s Finance Director, as part of a different job specification.

The City Treasurer monthly base salary information below is current as of July 2026:

City Title Part
Time or
Full Time
Monthly Salary
Culver City Finance Director FT NA
El Segundo City Treasurer PT $2,375
Gardena City Treasurer PT $500
Hawthorne City Treasurer PT $833
Hermosa Beach City Treasurer FT $530
Huntington Beach City Treasurer ¾ TIME $13,494
Lawndale Finance Director FT NA
Manhattan Beach City Treasurer FT $500
Pasadena Deputy Finance Director FT NA
Rancho Palos Verdes Finance Director FT NA
Torrance City Treasurer FT $2,860
West Hollywood Finance Director FT NA
Redondo Beach City Treasurer PT $2,083
Median Salary $1,458.33
Survey results indicate that the Redondo Beach City Treasurer position currently ranks above the median for part time City Treasurers in comparable cities. In several survey cities, the City Treasurer position is a dual role with the City’s Finance Director, as noted above. Therefore, those salaries were not included as they are not comparable to City Treasurer salaries.

The elected Redondo Beach City Treasurer oversees one full-time Chief Deputy City Treasurer. Per ordinance, the elected Redondo Beach City Treasurer receives the same benefits as full time

Page 3 of 6 ends

94 N.2., File # 26-1096 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026
ordinance, the elected Redondo Beach City Treasurer receives the same benefits as full time employees in the Management and Confidential Employee Unit. No changes to these benefits are currently being proposed.

In addition to the above survey, staff received additional information regarding total cash compensation for Southern California City Treasurers, downloaded from the State Controller’s Office.

This survey reflects total cash compensation changes and wage growth from 2014 until 2026:

City 2014 2026
Azusa $ 31,253 $ 39,404
Baldwin Park $ 2,400 $ 30,252
Beverly Hills $ 2,490 $ 8,580
Carson $ 135,001 $ 150,376
Compton $ 115,753 $ 128,884
Covina $ 2,466 $ 9,600
El Monte $ 14,734 $ 11,022
Gardena $ 3,599 $ 9,192
Glendale $ 169,923
Hawthorne $ 9,942 $ 14,400
Inglewood $ 64,908 $ 122,884
Manhattan Beach $ 6,001 $ 12,390
Palos Verdes Estates $ 3,600 $ 3,600
Sierra Madre $ 1,939 $ 3,000
Southgate $ 7,200 $ 28,406
South Pasadena $ 8,733 $ 8,472
Torrance $ 125,102 $ 75,617
Redondo Beach $ 30,356 $ 42,674
Any change to the position’s existing compensation would have to follow the same process as that for the City Clerk, which is outlined in the City Charter, and must be completed before the opening of the nomination period for the upcoming election.

The Budget and Finance Commission reviewed this information at its meetings on August 13, 2026 and again on August 27, 2026. Their recommendation to the City Council did not include a change to the City Treasurer’s salary.

Mayor and City Council
The method to set compensation for the Mayor and City Councilmembers is specified in the Redondo Beach Municipal Code and then established by the City Council via ordinance. Previously, the pay for the Mayor and City Councilmembers had not increased since 2007 and was set at $927.31 per month ($11,127.72 per year). The compensation was reviewed by the City Council biannually between 2008 and 2022, with the first adjustment in 14 years being made in 2022. In 2022, the City Council voted to adjust Mayor and Council salaries to $1669.16 per month ($20,030/year). For City Council Districts 3 and 5, and in accordance with the City Charter, this adjustment was effective at the beginning of a new term on April 1, 2023. For City Council Districts 1, 2 and 4, as well as the

Page 4 of 6 ends

95 N.2., File # 26-1096 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026
the beginning of a new term on April 1, 2023. For City Council Districts 1, 2 and 4, as well as the Mayor’s seat, the adjustment was effective April 1, 2025, which was the beginning of a new term for those positions. It should be noted that the Mayor and City Council also receive deferred compensation in the amount of 12% of their salary, and the same fringe benefits provided to the Management and Confidential Employee Unit.

Article VI of the City Charter refers to adjusting City Council salaries in accordance with Government Code Section 36516. That Government Code Section is attached for City Council review, and it appears to place a limit on adjustments based on the timing of the most recent adjustment. However, there are no known cases specifying if charter cities, like Redondo Beach, must conform with the above Government Code section, or what method charter cities should use to adjust councilmember salaries.

As there was a recent change to the Mayor and Council salaries in 2022, staff did not conduct a salary survey for these positions. In addition, the Budget and Finance Commission did not make a recommendation to change these salaries, as they had been recently updated.

However, at the September 1, 2026 City Council meeting, Councilmember Obagi made a referral to staff regarding the possibility of adding a communications reimbursement/stipend to the City Council pay and benefits package. Due to City Charter requirements surrounding the timing of City Council salary adjustments, staff recommends that the City Council consider adding such a stipend directly to the City Council salary rather than creating a separate pay type.

As noted, any changes to existing compensation would have to follow the same process as that for the City Clerk and City Treasurer, which is through adoption of an ordinance that must be completed before the opening of the nomination period for the upcoming election. Proposed pay changes would not apply to current Councilmember terms.

Following direction from Council, staff will return with ordinance(s) to make the desired adjustments for consideration of introduction and first reading at the next City Council meeting. If no action is taken the salaries of the elected positions would remain the same for the next four-year term.

COORDINATION
The Human Resources Department coordinated this report with the Financial Services Department and the City Attorney’s Office. The Budget and Finance Commission reviewed the salaries on two occasions in August and provided input for consideration by the City Council.

FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of adjustments will depend on final Council approval. The annual fiscal impact created by a 1% salary increase to the positions noted below is as follows:

Mayor/Councilmember: $1,733
City Clerk: $2,013
City Treasurer: $303
Any compensation changes would have to be included in future operating budgets.

97 Budget and Finance Commission Meeting Motion – August 27, 2026 Motion by Commissioner Allen, seconded by Commissioner Jeste, to recommend to the City Council that the City Clerk position be increased, from the current salary, by the same rate and at the same time as merit increases are provided for senior staffers within the City and that they are not recommending any changes to the Mayor, City Councilmembers, or the City Treasurer.

Major points from the discussion included the following:
• The Commission did not feel they have enough information about the responsibilities of the positions in comparison cities to use those comparisons effectively to make decisions • The recommendation recognizes the City’s challenging fiscal situation • Their understanding that the City Clerk’s position is similar to full-time City staff (and the elected City Attorney); while the City Treasurer, as a part-time position, is more similar to other elected officials.

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING POSSIBLE UPDATES TO THE REDONDO

BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE TO STREAMLINE BUSINESS PERMITTING REQUIREMENTS AND

ASSOCIATED LAND USE REGULATIONS

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Consistent with the City’s goal of attracting new businesses and reducing regulatory barriers, the Community Development Department is considering streamlining the City’s various permitting processes to make it easier for new businesses to open in Redondo Beach. This item provides an overview of the City’s current business permitting requirements and an opportunity for the City Council to give policy direction on possible Redondo Beach Municipal Code (RBMC) modifications.

BACKGROUND
The RBMC establishes the permitting requirements for opening a new business in the City of Redondo Beach, which includes the three permitting processes described below.

1. Permit-by-Right: A business may be approved and issued a business license as permit-byright through a streamlined, administrative process. Under this process, if the proposed business meets the definition for the type of use and is permitted, then the City administratively issues a business license, allowing the business owner to either open and/or submit a building permit application for tenant improvements. Most retail stores within the City are permitted in this manner.

2. Conditional Use Permit (CUP): Under current regulations the majority of business types in the City require a CUP. Under the CUP process, the decision to allow, conditionally allow, or deny a proposed business is rendered at a public hearing by the Planning Commission (or Harbor Commission). The Commissions must make the required findings for approval, or denial, and may apply special conditions to regulate business operations. CUP decisions made by the commissions can be appealed to the City Council for final determination.

RBMC Section 10-2.2506 states that “the purpose of a Conditional Use Permit shall be to review certain uses possessing unique characteristics…to ensure that the establishment or significant alteration of those uses will not adversely affect surrounding uses and properties nor disrupt the orderly development of the community. The review shall be for the further purpose of stipulating such conditions regulating those uses to assure that the criteria of this

115
N.3., File # 26-1112 Meeting Date: 9/8/2026
section shall be met.”

3. Administrative Use Permit (AUP): An AUP is similar in nature to the CUP in that it requires noticing, is discretionary, and allows the City to apply special conditions to the business operation; however, the decision is made by staff and is more administrative and streamlined than the CUP process.

RBMC Section 10-2.2507 of the RBMC states that “the purpose of an Administrative Use Permit is to enable the Community Development Department to review projects, that otherwise meet the zoning regulations, with regard to the appropriateness of the specific land use at the proposed location.” The decisions made by the Community Development Department are appealable to the Planning Commission and City Council, if needed.

CUPs are commonly required for businesses that have the potential to impact the surrounding neighborhood, such as entertainment venues, bars, gas stations, liquor stores, drive-through restaurants, etc. Other uses such as retail, restaurants, and service businesses are commonly approved through a simple permit-by-right or AUP process.

Redondo Beach has established a CUP process for many types of businesses, particularly in the Coastal Zone, which adds time, cost, and uncertainty to the process of opening a new business. The business permitting table for the C-2 Commercial Zones is included as an attachment. Uses that are permitted-by-right are indicated by the letter “P” and those that require a CUP are indicated by the letter “C”. It is worth noting that in the C-2 Commercial Zones, 70% of the uses require a CUP, while 30% are permit-by-right.

The business permitting table for the Coastal Commercial (CC) Zones is also included as an attachment. Within the CC Zones 84% of the uses require a CUP while 16% are permitted-by-right.

While the CUP process provides the City with greater discretion over business applications and the ability to impose special conditions on the operation, it also comes with significant added cost ($3,737) and uncertainty, which can act as a barrier when considering opening a business. The majority of business types require a CUP and, in staff’s opinion, several could be downgraded to require either an AUP or be evaluated as permitted-by-right. Examples of businesses that could have a more streamlined process include restaurants, certain assembly uses, such as clubs and lodges, and personal improvement services, which consist of personal training, dance studios, music lessons, etc. Staff notes that the AUP process, as an alternative to the CUP, would still provide the City with discretion over the application and the ability to impose special conditions, but is a more streamlined and less expensive process for prospective applicants.

While staff recommends generally relaxing the business permitting requirements, a special focus should be placed on Artesia and Aviation Boulevards, with the intent of being more selective about which business types best support the City’s goals of revitalization and placemaking along the corridor. Staff proposes to create a separate land use table that is specific to the Artesia and Aviation Corridors Area Plan (AACAP). The City Council may also consider placing a special focus on business permitting within the Harbor/Waterfront area, in which CUPs go before the Harbor Commission.

While the CUP process gives the City more discretion and ability to condition business operations, it can act as a barrier to prospective new businesses. In staff’s opinion, the business permitting requirements can be refined in a way that maintains critical City control, while also helping stimulate new business investment and activity. This item provides the City Council with an opportunity to discuss and give direction on the possible process improvements. The Council may also want to consider utilizing the Economic Development Subcommittee to further review the suggested modifications.
