TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOHN SIGNO, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING & COMMUNITY SERVICES THRU: KARINA BAÑALES, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: APPROVE THE HARBOR TOXICS COST SHARE FORMULA FOR THE
UPCOMING MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING PERIOD WITH THE
REGIONAL MONITORING COALITION
DATE: March 25, 2024
BACKGROUND:
The City of Rolling Hills is required to do monitoring for its contribution to the Greater Harbor Waters Region. Instead of dealing with this alone, the City joined the Regional Monitoring Coalition (RMC) to share cost. The coalition includes the Port of Los Angeles, Port of Long Beach, Los Angeles County unincorporated areas, Los Angeles County Flood Control District, and the cities of Los Angeles, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estates, Bellflower, Long Beach, Lakewood, Paramount, and Rolling Hills. In 2019, a memorandum of understanding (MOU) was established between the RMC group and the Los Angeles Gateway Region Integrated Regional Water Management Joint Powers Authority (GWMA) for administration and cost sharing for the implementation of the coordinated compliance, monitoring, and reporting plan for the Dominguez Channel and Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors waters toxic pollutants total maximum daily loads (TMDL). The RMC meets quarterly to discuss issues affecting the Greater Harbor Waters Region. The City's stormwater consultant, McGowan Consultants, attends these meetings on behalf of the City of Rolling Hills.
In 2014, the RMC was formed in part to address new legislation dealing with TMDL that came into law in 2012. Since the start of the RMC, individual permittees (5 private industrial users also responsible for monitoring) have paid an annual buy-in fee of $12,300 (plus administrative fees, etc.). Recently, regulatory standards for total maximum daily loads (TMDL) were revised, forcing the Regional Board to make changes to its requirements. In turn, this affects the monitoring program administered by the RMC, in which the City is a part. Due to the new requirements, an amendment is needed for the upcoming five-year MOU period, including an updated share-cost formula. The current five-year MOU was executed in 2019 and expires on December 31, 2024. The RMC will be working on updating the MOU in the coming months. If the City rejects the share-cost formula and decides not to be part of the MOU, the City will still be required to conduct monitoring at a much steeper price. 26 DISCUSSION:
In preparation of the updated MOU, the RMC has been meeting to discuss revising the costshare table. For the last five years, the total cost was $1.68 million. For the upcoming five years, the cost will increase to $2.97 million.
The City of Rolling Hills would be expected (assuming the updated cost share is approved by the RMC) to receive an annual invoice for a maximum of $22,723 per year for the period of this proposed 5-year MOU (2024-2029). That cost may go down based on how many individual permittees (IP) participate (there have been 5 over the last 10 years). Individual permittees are large private industrial businesses who also are responsible to conduct monitoring. Their contribution helps lower costs for cities such as Rolling Hills. The RMC is proposing to increase costs for the individual permittees to reflect the overall cost increases of the monitoring program (142%). Overall monitoring costs have gone up, partly due to general increases in labor and lab costs, and also due to increased monitoring requirements due to new permit requirements included in the recently updated TMDL.
Base costs were previously agreed to cover 30% of the total monitoring costs (agreed to by the RMC when the coalition was established). The base costs would go down based on the number of individual permittees. Each named permittee (cities and county) is expected to pay the same base fee for the 5-year period ($80,918); LA County Flood Control District pays 10% of the total. The base costs were determined previously to cover 30% of monitoring costs.
Additionally, each jurisdiction's area contribution was determined (area contributing stormwater runoff to the receiving waters in question (San Pedro Bay)). The City of Rolling Hills was previously determined to have a 0.92-square-mile discharge area that drains to the receiving waters.
The formula for area cost breaks down as follows:
(RH square miles/total square miles discharging stormwater to the receiving water) * (total cost for 5 years of monitoring – total input by IP) * area cost percentage (determined to be 60%) = area contribution amount
0.92/91.61 * 2,967,000 – 0 (assuming no IP) * 0.60 = $17,878 (area cost based on worst-case scenario)
There are additional administrative fees applied by GWMA, which are between 5-10% ($14,819 for the City). The total costs (area fee, base fee, and admin costs) add up to $113,615 total for the 5-year period ($22,723 annually).
For the past five years, the City has been paying $7,315 per year (amended from the original 27 $7,696 per year in the MOU). This is expected to increase from $17,024 to $22,723 (worstcase scenario), depending on IP opting in. The attached tables show the new recommended fee and the worst-case scenario.
McGowan has reviewed the new recommended fee in the cost-share spreadsheet. In comparison with the previous cost-share tables from the 2019 MOU, the city’s proportionate share of the cost is similar. The cost-share spreadsheet is based on a 30-60-10 split in which 30% is the base cost, 60% is the cost based on a jurisdiction's land area, and 10% is paid by the LA County Flood Control District.
FISCAL IMPACT:
McGowan Consulting provides professional services for stormwater issues. Fees for annual services are included in the adopted budget and paid under the General Fund. Cost sharing for the monitoring program is split among the members of the Regional Monitoring Coalition.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the cost share formula.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ALAN PALERMO, PROJECT MANAGER
THRU: KARINA BAÑALES, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: RECEIVE A STATUS UPDATE ON TENNIS COURT ADA, CABANA AND TENNIS COURT #1 EXPANSION PROJECTS (PENDING RHCA PLANS) DATE: March 25, 2024
BACKGROUND:
At the June 12, 2023, City Council Meeting, city staff reported on a coordination meeting with the Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) held in May 2023. At this meeting, it was communicated that the City's Tennis Courts ADA Improvement Project would incorporate the grading and retaining wall to support the RHCA's Cabana improvement/amenities project. This addition to the City's improvement plans was determined based on the sequence of construction and to facilitate workflow between contractors commissioned by the city and the RHCA. City staff, RHCA, and Bolton Engineering held two subsequent coordination meetings on June 6, 2023 and June 14, 2023 to discuss outstanding items and update all parties.
At the June 26, 2023, City Council meeting, staff reported the following:
A review of the City's improvement plans was completed and approved by the RHCA Architectural Committee on June 13, 2023.
The remaining outstanding review comments by Los Angeles County Building and Safety (LACBS) were to provide approval of the improvement plans from the Planning Department and the RHCA. Bolton Engineering resubmitted plans with these required approvals for a final round of plan check on June 15, 2023.
Staff anticipated that the Tennis Courts Improvement Project would be ready to advertise for construction bids in July 2023
Several other RHCA projects were being coordinated to ensure any City improvements account for these future projects including:
the new Cabana
revising the landscape, irrigation, and lighting plans, and a retaining wall submittal.
The plans for the new Cabana were scheduled to be submitted to LACBS in early July 2023. Once the plans for the Cabana were completed for the first submittal to LACBS, the RHCA would then present them to the City Council at a future meeting for feedback. 61 The City Council directed staff to advertise the Tennis Court ADA Improvement Project for bids and approved the allocation for landscape, irrigation and lighting plans. The City Council will be provided the opportunity to review the results of the construction bids and ultimately decide whether to award a contract at a later date. Staff had received construction estimates for the Tennis Court ADA Improvement Project in the amount of $300,000. In recent months, the RHCA had worked with Richie-Bray, Inc. for the landscape, irrigation and lighting plans.
After outreach from staff, Richie-Bray, Inc. had indicated a willingness to complete these plans for the city for the sum of $7,000.00.
On July 10, 2023, the City Council approved Resolution No. 1344 authorizing a budget amendment to transfer $307,000 from reserves to the Capital Projects Fund for this project.
DISCUSSION:
Since the June/July 2023 City Council updates, the project has proceeded through the plan review process with the Los Angeles County Building and Safety Division (LACBSD). The Tennis Court ADA Improvement Plans comprised of the Retaining Wall Plans and Grading / Drainage Improvement Plans were approved (September 27, 2023 and December 26, 2023 respectively).
Plans to construct a new Cabana including a restroom and trellis (Cabana Improvement Plans) have completed the first plan review with LACBSD providing comments on November 13, 2023. The second submittal of the Cabana Improvement Plans to LACBSD is currently pending. Per a meeting with LACBSD on February 29, 2024, it was determined that submittals/approvals to/by the Los Angeles County Fire and Public Health Departments are also required before LACBSD will approve as final. RHCA is coordinating with the it's Project Architect to ensure these submittals/approvals are obtained.
City Staff and RHCA continue with coordination meetings to keep their respective projects moving forward. These meetings have included discussions on the most efficient and effective process towards construction of the two projects and which entity should start their respective project first to avoid redundancy or other issues. Currently, the city is responsible for the tennis court ADA improvements, while the RHCA is responsible for the new Cabana and the future tennis court expansion project to accommodate pickleball courts (scheduled to take place after the ADA and Cabana projects are completed). Analysis indicates that it may be most efficient (while not a necessity) for the Tennis Court ADA Improvements and the Cabana Improvements to be constructed as one project. One concept proposed is to have the RHCA modify its project to include the Tennis Court ADA in addition to the Cabana project. The City would then modify its project to include the tennis court expansion project.
To facilitate this concept and understand each agency's financial responsibility, RHCA has hired a construction manager to prepare a detailed construction cost estimate for the ADA and Cabana improvements as a single project. Similarly, city staff has contacted two firms that previously provided proposals to the RHCA in 2022 for the tennis court expansion and requested updated proposals for construction as a City capital project. As of Wednesday, March 20, 2024, staff have received an updated proposal from one of these firms.
The tennis court expansion project would take place after the construction of the Tennis Court ADA/Cabana Improvement Project and involves the following:
Submitting Grading / Drainage plans and obtaining approval from LACBSD. Note: The plans have been prepared and are ready to be submitted to LACBSD 62 Preparing and submitting Retaining Wall Plans and obtaining approval from LACBSD.
Removing the existing tennis court, constructing the grading/drainage improvements and a new larger court to accommodate four pickleball courts.
While a complete cost estimate for the Tennis Court Expansion Project has, to date, not been prepared, the majority of construction efforts involves removing the existing court and constructing a new court. That amount is estimated at $260,000 which includes a 20% contingency for cost increases. Other costs will include grading, drainage improvements, retaining wall, inspection and construction management services for this project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Projected costs at this time are not finalized. For the Tennis Court #1 Expansion, staff is assuming a potential expenditure range of $330K to $400K.

SUBJECT: RECEIVE AND FILE AN UPDATE FROM SITELOGIQ REGARDING THE
SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC DUAL-FUEL EMERGENCY GENERATOR
PROJECT FOR THE CITY HALL CAMPUS BACK-UP POWER /
RESILIENCY AND TIMELINE TOWARDS A PUBLIC HEARING
DATE: March 25, 2024
BACKGROUND:
A diesel back-up power generator served the City Hall campus for many years, but the unit became inoperable in 2019. In late 2020, the City Council commissioned professional expertise to offer options for providing reliable back-up power to the City Hall campus, including the Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) building and operations.
Between October 2020 and March 2023, the City Council reviewed options provided by a professional architectural and engineering team working on the City Hall ADA project. In 2021, the architectural and engineering team provided a solar panel and battery back-up solution with estimated installation costs, based on the following requirements, to be approximately $250,000:
Current City Hall campus demand based on electric bills for 2020/2021 Supply 24 hours of backup power
16 kWh battery backup
75 kW Solar Photovoltaic system
The City Council subsequently assigned further exploration to the RHCA. After some time, the RHCA requested city staff take back ownership of a project, whereupon City staff brought it to the City Council. On March 27, 2023, the City Council directed staff to explore the solar/battery back-up power option. With this direction, city staff could approach the project conventionally by preparing an engineering design and advertising for construction bids or considering other alternatives as presented to the former City Manager.
On April 24, 2023, at the invitation of the former City Manager, SitelogIQ, an energy solutions 64 company, presented an alternate approach to delivering the solar/battery backup power solution to the City Council. SitelogIQ is a licensed General Contractor delivering energy infrastructure programs for State and local governments. SitelogIQ discussed available funds from the Federal government, including the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) that could offset local government expenditures on energy projects. Such projects involve the installation or modification of improvements to an energy-efficient or renewable energy system.
Via the IRA, the Federal government allows the city to obtain a federal tax credit in the form of a direct payment (i.e., rebate) for energy storage (battery), electrical infrastructure, solar, and microgrid controllers. The rebate could be as high as 30% of the project cost, provided the project is completed within a specific timeframe.
In the previous four years, City staff had many successes securing grant funds or other fund sources to offset the use of the General Fund for city projects. To move forward and execute a backup power project, the City Council was presented with two options: 1) to set aside a projected budget surplus or 2) use savings from the General Fund Reserves. In the SitelogIQ approach, the City could potentially save on design engineering costs by solely sourcing the project to SitelogIQ, thereby offsetting General Fund expenditures with SitelogIQ assisting the City in utilizing the Federal government's IRA rebate.
In May 2023, SitelogIQ provided City staff with a Letter of Agreement (LOA) for consideration.
The LOA outlined SitelogIQ's scope of services to develop an energy project that satisfies the city's requirements for a design/engineering cost of $28,500. If the city ultimately chooses to enter into a contract with SitelogIQ for project implementation within 60 days after receiving a formal presentation of the proposed project, SitelogIQ's design and engineering fee would be waived. Beyond the aforementioned 60 days, the fee paid would be credited toward the project's total implementation cost.
Per SitelogIQ, the California Government Code 4217.10 provides the ability for public agencies to sole source the project delivery to SitelogIQ as long as the requirements of the code section are met.
Given the past year's staff vacancies, the lack of technical expertise on energy projects, the current workload to deliver the CalOES/FEMA Hazard Mitigation Program grants, and the possibility to offset General Fund expenditures for the backup power project, staff recommended at the June 12, 2023 City Council meeting, the City Council accepted staff's recommendation and directed staff to engage the services of SitelogIQ.
On June 26, 2023, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with SitelogIQ.
Over the summer and fall of 2023, SitelogIQ conducted an initial site walk to determine the scope and scale of the program. Their work has included the following:
Compiled utility tariff and reviewed historical utility usage/bill analysis for the City Hall campus / tennis courts;
Modeled future use and operation of a distributed energy resource composed of solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage and performance using industry-leading software platform, Energy Toolbase;
Evaluated/selected products and equipment. The electrical load and service voltage limited SitelogIQ to four primary products/manufacturers. These were benchmarked 65 against each other, with the selected product meeting the following criteria: cost, efficiency, and application;
Hosted contractors on-site to walk through the scope and existing conditions.
Validated equipment, material quotes, and labor bids;
Developed cashflow and identified funding pathways;
Met with City staff to review preliminary project scope; Conducted internal review to identify risks and challenges; Reviewed the application process for the IRA and calculated the “elective pay” tax incentive based on total eligible costs
SitelogIQ's project team developed a comprehensive scope of work around resiliency that provides a turn-key design-build solution to the City. They compiled a 20-year program cash flow incorporating ongoing maintenance and operations that was reviewed by the former Interim City Manager and current City Manager / staff.
On December 14, 2023, SiteLogiQ presented their findings and proformas to the City Council as two options:
Option 1 – Cash deal for the entire scope of work
Option 2 (No EV) – Cash deal for a scope of work without EV Charging The City Council provided SiteLogiQ with direction to explore solutions that were more cost effective including the use of natural gas/propane backup solutions versus the proposed battery storage option, and to research other potential grants that could offset capital investment.
On March 11, 2024, City staff presented that since December 2023, SiteLogiQ had revisited the program approach, with a focus on the scope and scale of the Photovoltaic (PV) system and Energy Storage. Per City Council's direction they performed the following tasks:
Kept the PV system at approximately the same size and in the same location; Removed the EV charging station;
Removed the energy storage system;
Introduced a dual-fuel energy generator to the solution mix; Reviewed utility cost avoidance projections based on the change of scope; Solicited budgetary pricing from vendors and subcontractors for equipment and installation labor;
Reviewed the IRA application and recalculated the predicted credit value based on 30- 40% of the eligible cost;
Reviewed and qualified Utility and CEC programs (03/05/2024); Developed summary table for presentation to staff.
The attached Distributed Energy Resource (DER) Options Matrix shows the original proposed project as Option A, the revised Solar-PV system with a dual-fuel emergency generator as Option B and a third Option C depicting the addition of a dual-fuel emergency generator only.
Option C would require the City to pursue a more traditional RFQ/RFP process. SiteLogiQ could submit as part of any solicitation.
As noted during the meeting SiteLogiQ anticipates potential downward movement in the proposed program budget once they understand the final scope, schedule and contract terms. 66 As previously discussed, implementation of a PV system will have immediate and long-term utility cost avoidance savings. SiteLogiQ has estimated a 5% annual increase in rates in their utility cost avoidance projections. In 2023 the rate increase was 7.2%. In 2024 the forecasted rate increase is 7.6%.
SCE has also requested a rate increase in its General Rate Case application (A.23-05-010) for 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028. In this application, SCE asked the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for an authorized base revenue requirement (ABRR) of $10.27 billion to become effective January 1, 2025. Including sales updates and a $95.57 million in one-time memorandum accounts recoveries, the request represents a $1.90 billion, or 23 percent, increase in 2025 over 2024 requested base rates. Increases for 2026, 2027 and 2028 are $373.1, $476.5, and $514.5 million, respectively. A proposed decision on the application for the 2025 test year is expected in the first quarter of 2025.
The City Council requested that SiteLogiQ provide specific schematics and bottom-line costs for both Option B (Photovoltaic Solar System with dual-fuel backup generator) and Option C (dual-fuel backup generator only) at the March 25, 2024 Council meeting.
DISCUSSION:
At the March 11, 2024 City Council meeting, the Council had a variety of questions and requested additional information. Staff has attached spec sheets for the various components and is providing a list of questions and answers below.
SOLAR / PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM:
What is the overall output proposed? Does the 27kw provide the correct amount of power to both buildings?
27 kW. The solar is sized towards optimizing the economic return. This will provide power to both buildings as they are interconnected by one meter.
What is the realistic typical lifespan on the panels / inverter? Modules (panels): 25-30 years. Inverters 8-12 years.
What is the typical maintenance cost estimations over lifespan? Approximately, $40K to $50K for 30-years. Panel washing should be closer to $400 per year but not needed for every year.
Will the City be able to utilize Net Energy Metering (NEM) to provide credits towards the Tennis Courts electricity bill based on over-production at City Hall? Yes. SiteLogiQ will file an interconnection application under the current NEM 3.0 program DUEL-FUEL BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM:
Does the generator automatically switchover during loss of power? Yes
Where would the generator and propane tank be installed? Outside the shed and above ground for both.
What size is the generator / propane tank?
67 48kW / 300-gallon tank (4'x8'). Propane tank, in the event of an emergency where natural gas is unavailable, can provide 3-5 days of full operation and should be more than sufficient to meet the requirements for a fully supported City Hall/EOC facility What is the realistic typical lifespan?
Lifespan depends on maintenance and operation. Assuming low usage and proper maintenance the lifespan is likely 12+ year. Annual maintenance should suffice and would include electrical system review, air filter, coolant / oil checks and changes.
What is the typical maintenance cost estimations over lifespan? Assuming backup generator is rarely used, estimate $15K to $27K Will the model be South Coast Air Quality Management District compliant? Yes
Based on Council feedback, staff is recommending the City Council consider Option B with a net-implementation budget and one-time capital cost of $309,200 (after the receipt of estimated IRA funding). The IRA funding would come to the City in Q1 of the following year after project completion which is estimated to be by end of this calendar year. This would be treated as a reimbursement to the City after paying the total implementation budget of $418,000.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total fiscal impact of the Option B project would be $309,200. At the June 12, 2023 City Council meeting, the FY 2023-2024 budget was approved, including an allocation of $250,000 to the City Hall campus back-up power project. SiteLogIQ's proforma assumes rebates of up to $108,800. This would leave the unfunded portion of the potential project at $59,200.
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file. Provide direction to staff and SiteLogIQ to bring the project presentation to the RHCA Board before returning for a formal Public Hearing with the City Council.

75 Tech Brief
Solar Is Not Always Sunny
Over their lifetime, solar panels experience countless
extreme weather events. Not just the worst storms in years, but the worst storms in 40 years. High winds capable of ripping panels from a roof, and snowfalls weighing
enough to buckle a panel frame.
XR Rails® are the structural backbone
preventing these results. They resist uplift,
protect against buckling and safely
and efficiently transfer loads into the
building structure. Their superior
spanning capability requires fewer
roof attachments, reducing the
number of roof penetrations
and the amount of
installation time.
XR Rail® Family
Force-Stabilizing Curve
Sloped roofs generate both vertical and lateral
forces on mounting rails which can cause them to
bend and twist. The curved shape of XR Rails®
is specially designed to increase strength in both
directions while resisting the twisting. This unique
feature ensures greater security during extreme
weather and a longer system lifetime.
Compatible with Flat & Pitched Roofs
Roof Mount utilizes XR
Rails, along with optional
all-in-one attachments,
to secure systems flush
against residential roofs.
Corrosion-Resistant Materials
XR Rails® are
compatible with
FlashFoot® and
other pitched roof
attachments.
IronRidge® offers
a range of tilt leg
options for flat
roof mounting
applications.
All XR Rails® are made of 6000-series
aluminum alloy, then protected with an
anodized finish. Anodizing prevents surface
and structural corrosion, while also providing
a more attractive appearance.
76 XR Rail® Family
The XR Rail® Family offers the strength of a curved rail in three targeted sizes. Each size supports specific design loads, while minimizing material costs. Depending on your location, there is an XR Rail® to match. © 2023 IronRidge, Inc. All rights reserved. Visit www.ironridge.com or call 1-800-227-9523 for more information. Version 1.22 Tech Brief
Rail Selection
The table below was prepared in compliance with applicable engineering codes and standards.* Values are based on the following criteria: ASCE 7-16, Gable Roof Flush Mount, Roof Zones 1 & 2e, Exposure B, Roof Slope of 8 to 20 degrees and Mean Building Height of 30 ft.

Recommended for use with the Wireless Remote on units up to 60 kW, required for use on units 70 kW or greater.
E-stop allows for immediate fuel shutoff and generator shutdown in the event of an emergen cy.
The Wi-Fi enabled LP fuel level monitor provides constant monitoring of the connected LP fuel tank. Monitoring the LP tank's fuel level is an important step in making sure your generator is ready to run during an unexpected power failure. Status alerts are available through a free application to notify when your LP tank is in need of a refill.
Smart Management Modules (SMM) are used to optimize the performance of a standby generator. They manage large electrical loads upon startup and shed them to aid in recovery when overloaded. In many cases, using SMM's can reduce the overall size and cost of the system.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEPHANIE GRANT, ASSISTANT PLANNER
THRU: KARINA BAÑALES, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: APPROVE PROPOSED CITY HALL CAMPUS LANDSCAPE DESIGNS AND ACCEPTANCE OF CALIFORNIA WATER SERVICES 2024 TURF
REPLACEMENT REBATE PROGRAM OFFER TO ASSIST IN
EFFECTUATING HOME HARDENING STRATEGIES AND REFRESHED
WATERWISE PLANTINGS AND IRRIGATION
DATE: March 25, 2024
BACKGROUND:
Between 2017 and 2020, the City Hall campus was poorly maintained, with diseased vegetation, broken irrigation lines, and sprinklers. Repairs were made, replacement irrigation parts were installed, diseased vegetation was removed, and new vegetation was isolated without a holistic plan for the entire campus. The City lacked as-builts, including the existing irrigation system and plant palette.
In 2022, a survey of the existing irrigation system was conducted by a licensed landscape architect, which resulted in a list of recommended actions to improve the system's operation.
With limited open space, the City desired to keep the City Hall campus functional at all times and provide an aesthetically pleasing campus with attention to detail in the plant palette. The west side of the City Hall campus is one of the three main entryways to the community.
Residents have expressed to staff that the rose bushes and ground covering adjacent to Portuguese Bend Road are the first visuals upon entering the city, and this area should be reflective of the care that the City has for the greater community.
In the fall of 2022, the City issued an RFP for Landscaping Services. Two firms submitted proposals, and the City Council ultimately unanimously voted to select Bennett Landscape for a one-year period and directed staff to prepare a professional service agreement on November 14, 2022.
The service contract with Bennett Landscape was finalized in early January 2023. Prior to the execution of the current agreement, staff worked with Bennett Landscaping to identify campus-wide issues and needs. Based on conversations and site walks with staff, Bennett 91 Landscape submitted four proposals covering the following services:
Landscape Design - $2,875
Landscape Improvements - $6,786
Irrigation deficiencies and spot repairs - $499
Gopher mitigation - $55/site visit, with a minimum of two visits and $65/CO2 smoke Bennett Landscape noted that the above-listed services are outside of routine maintenance and would cost a total of $10,335.
On February 13, 2023, City staff presented the above information and requested approval from the City Council while noting that there appeared to be sufficient funds budgeted for FY22/23 in the General Fund that would cover the $10,335 in Repairs & Maintenance fees as proposed under 01-65-930. Some of those costs (Landscape Design / Irrigation deficiencies and spot repairs) were used, but others were not.
For the landscape improvements, beautification, and upgrades on the City's main campus, Ric Dykzeul (Landscape Architect) was hired by Bennett Landscape to provide updated and cohesive designs with the intention of removing the existing landscape and replacing it with drought-resistant, low-water usage, and low maintenance plants. Mr. Dykzeul was also tasked with evaluating how to ensure the City Hall and RHCA campus complied with Home Hardening requirements to serve as an example for the greater community.
In the Spring of 2023, Mr. Dykzeul provided City Staff with his initial designs and plant palette.
Around the same time, the previous City Manager was transitioning out of the City, and the plans were put on hold until the City had new management in place.
On June 30, 2023, resident Judith Haenel informed City Staff about the California Water Service (Cal Water) Lawn-to-Garden rebate. She suggested that staff contact Cal Water to request information and determine if the City would be eligible.
On July 12, 2023, City Staff connected with Cal Water's Conservation Coordinator and arranged an on-site meeting/walk-through to discuss the qualifications and requirements of the Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program and see if there was potential to help defray costs specific to the removal of plantings/turf as well as the installation of drip irrigation and low-water plants as part of the proposed campus design. The Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program is currently designed to pay residential customers $3.00 per square foot of living lawn/turf when at least 50 percent of the high-water use surface is removed and converted to landscaping utilizing California-friendly, drought-tolerant plant material.
On July 17, 2023, City Staff and Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) staff met with Cal Water. They performed an on-site audit and provided feedback. They requested City staff provide a square-foot estimate of the campus areas and submit it for evaluation.
On July 21, 2023, City Staff provided Cal Water with a general estimate calculating the City Hall Campus at 26,877 square feet and Tennis Court Area at 1,300 square feet for a total of 28,177 square feet. Staff also sent the City Campus landscape plans prepared by Mr. Dykzeul and Tennis Court landscape plans prepared by Richie-Bray Inc., to Cal Water to review, along with the square footage area estimates. Over the subsequent five months, staff periodically reached out to Cal Water to ascertain the status of the City's eligibility and qualifications but 92 never received any status updates.
On December 15, 2023, staff was contacted by Cal Water's Director of Water-Use Efficiency, Christy Colby. She conveyed that the City was eligible for the Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program. Based upon the eligible square footage at $3.00 per square foot, the City Hall Campus allowable area was 16,299 square feet with a rebate amount of $48,897. The tennis courts allowable area was 1,300 square feet with a rebate amount of $3,900. The grand total eligible for the rebate was $52,797. (Attachment B)
On January 11, 2024, City and RHCA staff met with Ms. Colby to discuss the conditionally approved rebate estimates. City staff had questions regarding the application, duration of the project, and funding. Ms. Colby provided the following information:
The Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program is not a grant, and there is no match; The City is conditionally approved for $3.00 per square foot of high-water usage lawn/turf to be removed and replaced with drought-resistant Cal Water-approved plants and proper irrigation;
The Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program project must be completed within the 2024 calendar year;
The City was approved for a six-month completion period, starting upon the City Council formally approving acceptance of the rebate program.
Staff also discussed the City's Tennis Court Capital Improvement Project (CIP). Although Cal Water approved a $3,900 potential rebate, it cannot be used at this time as the tennis court project will most likely not be completed until 2025.
On January 30, 2024, City Staff met with Mr. Dykzeul and Bennett Landscape to discuss the Lawn-to-Garden Rebate project as it related to the designs presented last Spring. The Cal Water rebate program could be used to reimburse associated costs for design, removal of existing turf, hedges and plants, replacement of existing spray irrigation with drip irrigation, and planting of new materials that meet the rebate guidelines. Mr. Dykzeul has worked on other Lawn-to-Garden Rebate projects and is familiar with the qualified plant list. The current plans would require some revisions based on the allowable rebate area and three to four proposed plant species.
On January 31, 2024, City Staff met with RHCA staff to discuss the Cal Water rebate conditional offer and the requirement for any proposed landscape design plans to be approved by the RHCA's Landscape Committee.
On March 6, 2024, the RHCA Landscape Committee approved the proposed landscape designs. (Attachment A)
DISCUSSION:
The benefits of replacing turf with water-efficient plants are cost-effective, beautiful, and low maintenance. The Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program (Attachments C,D,E) aims to update the City's existing landscape design in a cost-effective manner by being an example for home hardening strategies, water conservation, irrigation modification with drip system, rainwater retention, planting native and drought-resistant plants, and sustainability.
In September of 2021, in the midst of a drought and the record driest month for California since 1895, Cal Water expanded its efforts to help customers save water every day with the 93 launch of a lawn-to-garden program that offers incentives for Cal Water customers to improve the efficiency of their landscaping.
Cal Water’s lawn-to-garden program offers a rebate of $3.00 per square foot of lawn removed for residential properties and $1.00 per square foot for commercial properties. Program requirements include that at least 50 percent of the grass removed must be converted to landscaping utilizing California-friendly, drought-tolerant plant material. Artificial or synthetic turf, lawn that is already dead, or grass previously removed does not qualify for the rebate, in addition to turf that has not been established for at least 5-years.
For the proposed project, Cal Water extended the $3.00 per square foot residential rebate to the City and included some of the existing shrubbery on the property in the qualified rebate area. The Lawn-to-Garden program makes it even easier for Cal Water customers to beautify their landscapes while also reducing water use and saving money, all reflective of Cal Water’s commitment to deliver quality, service, and value. Cal Water is hopeful that the City’s landscape transformation will inspire residents to take advantage of the lawn-to-garden program.
Residents may voluntarily participate in Cal Water's rebate program by applying for the rebate for their own homes.
Staff seeks approval of the proposed Landscape Designs as well as authorization to accept Cal Water's conditional approval of the Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program. Staff would bring back a resolution at the April 8, 2024, City Council meeting for formal acceptance of the rebate.
Staff has also attached estimates from Bennett Landscape (Attachment F and G) for implementation of the proposed Landscape Design broken into two phases. The attached presentation (Attachment H) shows the phased areas.
Phase 1 would encompass only the campus areas that fall within the Lawn-to-Garden Rebate program square footage and is required to be completed within 6 months from acceptance.
Bennett's estimated costs are $53,977 not including removal of existing hedges and aspects that the City can potentially request RHCA maintenance staff to perform as part of the accrued work hours via the lease agreement.
Phase 2 would encompass the outer perimeters of the campus and are not subject to the rebate's cost offsets. Bennett's estimated costs are $36,150 not including removal of existing plat material or aspects that the City can potentially request RHCA maintenance staff to perform as part of the accrued work hours via the lease agreement.
Staff requested an itemized breakdown of the Bennett Landscape estimates and was told there are too many variables within the pricing to breakout. Bennett Landscape would perform the proposed work over a period of time (less than 6 months for rebate area) under our existing landscape maintenance contract and agreed upon pricing as can be found in the City's existing Professional Services Agreement Exhibit B. (Attachment I) FISCAL IMPACT:
94 The potential fiscal impact for Phase 1 based on an estimate from Bennett Landscape is $53,977. Assuming the city can only reasonably use 14,550sf considering a large section of lawn in between the two buildings will not be removed, we can estimate that the rebate amount will be approximately $43,650. This would leave a FY23/24 non-budgeted city expenditure of approximately $10,327 and would require a budget amendment transferring money from the General Fund Reserves, or staff could build into the FY24/25 Area Landscaping budget.
The potential fiscal impact for Phase 2 based on an estimate from Bennett Landscape is $36,150. If approved by the City Council, staff would budget as part of the FY24/25 Area Landscaping budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve as presented.

Congratulations! Your lawn-to-garden application has been conditionally approved. Based on our pre-inspection, you have 17,599 square feet of lawn pre-qualified or available for removal.
It is important to understand that the final incentive payment is calculated only on the amount of living grass that is removed, not the total project size. If the final project does not meet all the minimum requirements during post-inspection, it may be denied.
Once you accept these terms, you may start your project. Please note that you have until April 30, 2024, to complete your project. Please let me know if you need more time.
Good luck with your project and please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,

Lawn-to-garden program
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a Cal Water customer to apply for the lawn-to-garden program? Yes. Only Cal Water residential and commercial customers with an account number are eligible to apply for the program.
How much does it cost to remove lawn and plant new (non-grass) landscape? Cal Water does not make any representation or warranty regarding the actual or estimated cost of converting any particular project area.
In general, there are some sources of information that indicate the actual conversion will run about $2 to more than $5 per square foot, depending on the elaborateness and detail of the converted landscaping. The intent of the program is to help participants realize longterm savings from significantly reduced maintenance and water costs.
My lawn has been dead for several months. Do I still qualify for the program? No. In order to receive the rebate, you must have living lawn at the time of submitting your application. See the lawn-to-garden Terms and Conditions for further details.
I began letting my lawn die several months ago. Do I still qualify for the program? No. In order to receive the rebate, you must have living lawn at the time of submitting your application. See the lawn-to-garden Terms and Conditions for further details.
I already replaced my lawn with water-efficient plants. Can I still get the rebate? No. In order to receive the rebate, you must have living lawn at the time of submitting your application. See the lawn-to-garden Terms and Conditions for further details.
What plants can be used for the lawn-to-garden program? Plant selections must meet program guidelines and can be chosen from many varieties found in the WUCOLS database, or low water use plants listed in the Qualified Plants List. You can also refer to the California Native Plant Society plant database, or discover the latest low water use plants being researched by the University of California.
Can I replace my lawn with other grass varieties? Will these types of plant selections qualify for the rebate? No. The specific purpose of this rebate is to assist our customers in eliminating water-thirsty lawns. Warm-season turfgrass such as Bermuda grass or St. Augustine are not acceptable plant choices for this program, even though they are used for other purposes such as landscaping recreational areas for children and pets.
Can I use artificial grass as part of my new landscape? No. Artificial turf is not allowed in the converted portion of the landscape.
How much plant material needs to be planted in my new landscape? At least 50% of the newly landscaped area must be planted with water-wise, drought-tolerant, or California-friendly landscaping.
Since plants change size over time, how do you determine the percentage of plant cover? The Cal Water conservation rebate application system uses the eventual mature size of each species of shrub or groundcover. You can plant any size or age you desire, it won’t change your percentage of plant cover. The only exception are trees –where you are allotted a maximum of 78 square feet (five foot radius) per tree for the purposes of calculating your percentage of plant cover. This is to prevent someone from planting all trees and nothing else.
Is mulch required in the converted landscape area?
100
Yes. Your new landscape is required to have a 2” layer of organic or inorganic mulch type to cover exposed soil. Organic mulch is recommended because it helps prevent runoff and holds moisture in the soil.
Do I have to replace my irrigation system?
Your irrigation system in the converted landscape must be an efficient, low-flow system that meets program guidelines. This essentially means you must cap existing spray heads, use drip, rotating stream, rotating nozzles, or hand water to meet your irrigation needs. See our website to find out about Cal Water’s high efficiency nozzle rebate program.
Why do you not allow unnatural colored rock and discourage gray pea gravel? Because the goal of our program is to demonstrate that water-efficient landscapes can be beautiful while also enhancing property values.
What is the “Notice to Proceed” email approval?
Once a Cal Water conservation representative reviews and approves your application materials (including “before” project photos, landscape site plans, and plant selections), you will receive a “Notice to Proceed” email that will give you permission to begin your project. Do not begin your project unless you have received a “Notice to Proceed” email approval from Cal Water.
How long do I have to complete my lawn-to-garden project? Lawn-to-garden projects must be completed within 90 days after receiving the “Notice to Proceed” email approval. You may request one 30 day extension if the project cannot be completed within 90 days. The terms and conditions of any extension, and the determination of whether to grant an extension, will be made at the discretion of Cal Water.
How long will it take to receive my rebate check?
Rebate checks will be mailed within 6-8 weeks after your final project materials are approved by a Cal Water conservation representative.

Mtg. Date: 03/25/2024
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: CHRISTIAN HORVATH, CITY CLERK / EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT TO
CITY MANAGER
THRU: KARINA BAÑALES, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: APPROVE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH REVIZE LLC. AKA REVIZE SOFTWARE SYSTEMS
FOR A ONE-YEAR EXTENSION OF WEBSITE REDESIGN, HOSTING,
AND SOFTWARE SERVICES
DATE: March 25, 2024
BACKGROUND:
In April 2019, the City engaged the services of Revize LLC (Revize) to provide a new website and host the site for five years at a cost of approximately $4,940 per year. The City had previously contracted with CivicPlus at a cost of $6,256 annually for an earlier website iteration and hosting. The website became functional and publicly accessible in March 2020.
The City's current contract is comprised of basic services and access to the Revize Content Management System (CMS) for periodic updating by City staff.
DISCUSSION:
The current contract with Revize expires on April 3, 2024. While staff is interested in finding a lower-cost website hosting /content management system for future use, there is not enough time to currently pursue other options and migration. As a result, staff met with Revize and negotiated a design refresh, content management system upgrade and a one-year extension for $2,400. The city would also, if desired, have an option to renew for an additional three years ($2,400 for year two and $3,400 for years three and four.) The City retains the ability to terminate the contract upon a 30-day written notice to Revize.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are sufficient funds in the approved FY 23-24 budget to support the one-year extension and exploration of a more economical solution beyond that. 151
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve as presented.

SUBJECT: RECEIVE AND FILE NOTIFICATION FROM CONGRESSMAN LIEU'S OFFICE REGARDING FISCAL YEAR 2024 LOCAL COMMUNITY
PROJECT FUNDING AWARD OF $1 MILLION DOLLARS TOWARDS
PHASE 1 OF THE PORTUGUESE BEND ROAD / ROLLING HILLS
ROAD 8" SEWER MAIN PROPOSED CAPITAL PROJECT
DATE: March 25, 2024
BACKGROUND:
In 2020, the City Council engaged the services of NV5 to provide engineering design for the 8" sewer main along Portuguese Bend Road/Rolling Hills Road. Since the commencement of the design work, NV5 has met the 65% design, 90% design, and 100% design milestones. This proposed sewer main crosses several jurisdictions, and approval from Rolling Hills Estates and the City of Torrance is necessary before the project is deemed complete.
Phase 1 would include the new 8-inch sewer main along Portuguese Bend Road from the RHCA's main gate to Lariat Lane in Rolling Hills Estates. Phase 2 would involve the downstream sewer improvements in the City of Torrance (upsizing existing sewer mains) along Rolling Hills Road from Lariat Lane to Crenshaw Boulevard.
Per the City Council's direction at the April 25, 2022 meeting, staff confirmed with the cities of Rolling Hills Estates and Torrance, as well as the LA County Department of Public Works, that the proposed 8-inch sewer main along Portuguese Bend Road/Rolling Hills Road could be phased on the condition that the Sanitary Sewer Improvement Feasibility Study prepared by Willdan Engineering be updated. All agencies wanted to confirm that the existing sewer main lines in Rolling Hills Estates and the City of Torrance have the capacity to accept effluent from the City Hall campus and the Tennis Courts (Phase 1) without upsizing.
In June 2022, Willdan Engineering provided a proposal to amend the Sanitary Sewer Improvement Feasibility Study for $9,010. At the June 27, 2022 meeting, the City Council reviewed Willdan Engineering's proposal and directed staff to bring this item back in six months.
176
At the December 13, 2022, meeting, the City Council approved an amendment to Wildan’s contract to amend the Sanitary Sewer Feasibility Study in support of the first phase of construction of the proposed sewer main from Rolling Hills connecting to the sewer main in Rolling Hills Estates. Wildan completed the amended feasibility study, and this study was approved by Rolling Hills Estates on February 15, 2023.
At the February 13, 2023 meeting, City Council authorized staff to execute an amendment with NV5 to update and phase the 8” Sewer Main Improvement Plans for the section from Rolling Hills connecting to the existing sewer in Rolling Hills Estates. NV5 proceeded to update the plans and the plans were approved by Rolling Hills Estates on December 1, 2023. NV5 subsequently prepared an updated Engineer’s Opinion of Probable Construction Costs for these approved plans and submitted it to the City on January 5, 2024. This estimate is for the total amount of $1,219,000, which includes a Field Order Allowance of $60,000 and a 10% Contingency Amount of $111,230
The project is pending city direction to solicit construction bids.
The City submitted a Fiscal Year 2024 Community Funding request to Congressman Lieu's office in March of 2023 and was successful in securing funding.
DISCUSSION:
On March 18, 2024, the City received notice that the City's application for FY24 Local Project funding through Congressman Lieu's office had been signed into law by President Biden. (Attachment A)
