Agenda packet — San Fernando City Council, February 2, 2026 (part 2 of 3)

ANALYSIS:

The City’s landscaped properties require regular, specialized maintenance to ensure public safety, accessibility, aesthetic quality, and compliance with environmental standards. The City owns and operates four (4) groundwater well sites and four (4) reservoir facilities that provide potable water to the residents of San Fernando, several of which are located outside City boundaries. In addition, the City maintains multiple water-related facilities and easements within City limits that require routine landscaping to ensure site cleanliness, safety, and vegetation control.

Given the scope of work, the need for specialized equipment, the geographic dispersion of the sites, and the staffing resources required to maintain these properties at the required standard, contracting with a professional landscaping service represents the most efficient and cost-effective approach.

Accordingly, the facilities proposed to be covered under this maintenance contract include the following well sites, reservoirs, booster station, and associated easements:

Well Sites
Well 2A – 14060 Sayre Street, Sylmar, CA, 91342
Well 3 – 13003 Borden Avenue, Sylmar, CA, 91342
Well 4A – 12900 Dronfield Avenue, Sylmar, CA, 91342
Well 7A – 13180 Dronfield Avenue, Sylmar, CA, 91342

Metropolitan Water District (MWD) Booster Station - 60 Jessie Street, San Fernando, CA, 91340

Request for Proposals.

On October 22, 2025, the City received and reviewed four (4) proposals with the following monthly cost:

GR Landscaping $5,830 per month
ATC Solutions $9,200 per month
Martinez Landscaping $4,470 per month
Mariposa Landscaping Inc. $3,590 per month
Following a review of cost proposals, qualifications, and references, Mariposa Landscaping Inc. was determined to be the most responsive and cost-effective proposer. The firm brings 45 years of experience specializing in construction, maintenance, and tree care, and has received over 100 industry awards reflecting its longstanding commitment to quality, safety and service.

Staff recommends awarding a Professional Service Agreement to Mariposa Landscaping Inc. in the annual amount of $43,080, which reflets $3,590 per month for routine weekly landscaping maintenance and weed abatement services at the City water facilities and easements. Services include weed removal, litter removal, irrigation system inspections, turf mowing, edging, trimming, and pruning as needed. Staff further recommends authorizing a contingency amount of $6,462 (approximately 15%) to address any unforeseen or additional service needs during the contract term. Approval of the Agreement with Mariposa Landscaping Inc. will ensure consistent and cost-effective landscape maintenance for the City’s water facilities and easements.

BUDGET IMPACT:

The cost of the landscaping and professional services agreement with Mariposa Landscaping Inc. is at an initial not-to-exceed rate of $43,080. Sufficient funding is available within the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Adopted Budget within the Water Distribution Division for City easements (070-383- 0000-4260: $1,040) and Water Production Division for water facilities (070-384-0000-4260:
$42,040). The contract includes an annual CPI-based adjustment of up to three percent (3%) for each subsequent year of the contract term, which will be incorporated accordingly in future budget processes.

(Contract No. 2472) for Water Facilities and City Easement Landscape Services, at an initial not-to-exceed rate of $43,080 with annual consumer price index (CPI) adjustments up to a three percent (3%) increase based on current CPI increase for a term of three (3) years with two (2) optional 1-year extensions; authorize the City Manager to approve a contingency amount not to exceed $6,462 (approximately 15% of the contract amount) for any February 2, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 169 of 506 Consideration to Award a Professional Services Agreement to Mariposa Landscaping Inc. for Water Facilities and City Easement Landscape Services

From: Kanika Kith, City Manager
By: Erica D. Melton, Director of Administrative Services

Date: February 2, 2026
Subject: Consideration to Approve a Business License Permit for Pearl Day Spa, a Massage Parlor Located at 2035 Glenoaks Boulevard, Pursuant to San Fernando Municipal Code Section 22-215
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve a Business License Permit for Pearl Day Spa to conduct business for the 2026 calendar year as a massage parlor at 2035 Glenoaks Boulevard, pursuant to San Fernando Municipal Code Section 22-215.

BACKGROUND:

1. On September 8, 2022, the owner of Pearl Day Spa applied for a Commercial Business Occupancy Permit to operate a massage parlor at 2035 Glenoaks Boulevard. The permit was approved by the Community Development Department on October 3, 2022.

2. On October 1, 2022, Pearl Day Spa applied and received approval for a Business License to conduct a massage parlor at 2035 Glenoaks Blvd.

3. On December 23, 2025, Pearl Day Spa applied for and submitted an application for a Business License Permit to operate a massage parlor under new business ownership at 2035 Glenoaks Blvd., prompting a review of a previously overlooked permit associated with the location.

4. On January 21, 2026, the permit application and supporting documentation was routed to the Community Development and Police Department for review, and the application was subsequently approved.

ANALYSIS:

Certain businesses require City Council approval to ensure compliance with zoning and safety standards that may significantly impact the community. This process also allows the City Council to set conditions through Conditional Use Permits (CUPs), providing transparency and aligning business operations with city planning goals.

February 2, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 245 of 506 Consideration to Approve a Business License Permit for Pearl Day Spa, a Massage Parlor Located at 2035 Glenoaks Boulevard, Pursuant to San Fernando Municipal Code Section 22-215

Page 2 of 2 ends

Article III of Chapter 22 of the San Fernando Municipal Code (SFMC) requires certain types of businesses to obtain a Business Permit to operate in the City. The purpose of the Business Permit approval process is to conduct a higher level of review for specific business categories that engage in certain interactions with the public. For example, businesses selling used goods undergo additional screening through the Department of Justice (DOJ) to verify that those business operations are free of any criminal activity that could compromise business integrity.

Pearl Day Spa commenced operations in 2022. Although the initial application did not initiate the business license permitting process, the matter was identified during a recent request for a change of ownership. Measures are now being undertaken to bring this business, along with all others governed by this Code, into full compliance.

All Business Permits require the approval of the City Council. To obtain a Business Permit, affected businesses must submit a written application specifying the proposed business location.

Once approved, the permit is valid for the calendar year, or a shorter period of time as may be prescribed by any resolution of the City Council or in the Permit.

The application was submitted to the Finance Division and reviewed by the Police, Community Development, and Public Works departments to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations, including:
• Zoning establishment compliance (Planning Department review); • Code complaints and outstanding violations (Code Enforcement review); and • Safety complaints and Department of Justice notifications (Police Department review).

In review of the application, the Pearl Day Spa has met all compliance requirements. If the Business Permit is approved by City Council, it will expire on December 31, 2026. The applicant will be required to submit a renewal application as part of the 2027 Business License Permit renewal process.

BUDGET IMPACT:

The Business Permit fees application includes a fee set by SFMC Article III, Section 22-215. Fees are established at levels to recover costs of providing services, including staff costs, in accordance with Chapter 9 (“User Fees and Service Charges”) of the City Council General Financial Policy.

CONCLUSION:

Staff is recommending approval of a Business Permit to Pearl Day Spa, as it meets all City requirements. By approving the Business Permit, the City Council authorizes Pearl Day Spa to operate a massage parlor in the city for the 2026 calendar year at the specified commercial address of 2035 Glenoaks Boulevard.

From: Kanika Kith, City Manager

Date: February 2, 2026
Subject: Discussion and Consideration to Approve a Reimbursement Request of $12,293.36 from the Mall Association for Marketing Services Provided by Yeah, We Get It RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:
a. Approve Reimbursement Request No. 2 in the amount of $12,293.36 from the Mall Association for marketing services provided by Yeah, We Get It (Attachment “A”), in accordance with the agreement between the City and the Mall Association (Attachment “B” - Contract No. 768,); and
b. Authorize the City Manager to issue payment directly to Yeah, We Get It.

BACKGROUND:

1. On November 4, 1968, the City adopted Ordinance No. 973 (Attachment “C”), establishing Parking and Business Improvement Area B (“Area B”) pursuant to the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1964 (Street and Highways Code Section 36000 et seq.) (the “BID”).

The BID establishes a special tax paid by businesses located within Area B, the proceeds of which may only be used for those statutorily designated purposes listed under Section 36000 of the Street and Highways Code and Section 62-139. Special tax proceeds may be used for the following uses: (a) the acquisition, construction or maintenance of parking facilities for the benefit of Area B; (b) the decoration of any public place within Area B; (c) the promotion of public events which are to take place on or in public places within Area B; (d) the furnishing of music in any public place; and (e) the general promotion of retail trade activities in the area. The BID is designed to enhance the commercial appeal of Area B and foster greater community engagement with businesses within Area B.

2. On September 5, 1984, some businesses interests within Area B formed a private California non-profit mutual benefit corporation called the San Fernando Mall Assessment District, Inc., (the “Mall Association”1) whose purpose was “to promote the interests of the Mall 1 In 1990, the San Fernando Mall Assessment District, Inc. changed its name to its current name, the San Fernando Mall Association, Inc.

Assessment District and members thereof for the betterment and improvement of the area covered by the assessment district and to further and advance the commercial, industrial and public interest of the Mall Assessment District” (Articles of Incorporation dated September 5, 1984).

3. On December 17, 1984, the City and the Mall Association executed Contract No. 768 (Attachment “B”) (the “Agreement”) under which the City hired the Mall Association to perform work and render services relating to the statutorily designated uses of the Area B special tax, excluding mall maintenance which is reserved to the City. Under the Agreement, the Mall Association was required to submit annual programs and budgets for approval, provide biannual activity reports, and operate on a reimbursement basis with a $1,000 cash fund advanced by the City for operating expenses. Additionally, under the Agreement, the Mall Association was also authorized to engage in fundraising from time to time, provided that any profit realized from such fundraising was to be used for the same purposes as the BID special tax.

4. From 2007 to 2020, the City issued reimbursements and advance payments to the Mall Association for various expenses and events (Attachment “D”).

5. On November 7, 2025, the Mall Association submitted a reimbursement request of $43,143.68 for website development with Sherpa Marketing, social media and special events support with Yeah, We Get It, and annual insurance with State Farm (Attachment “E”).

6. On November 10, 2025, staff notified the Mall Association that supporting documentation (invoices, contracts, receipts, etc.) was required to evaluate the reimbursement request (Attachment “F”). Staff also advised that the Mall Association had not submitted an Annual Program and Budget Request for City Council approval, as required under Contract No. 768 (Attachment “B”).

7. On November 12, 2025, the City, with City Council approval, issued notice to the Mall Association of the City’s intent to terminate the Agreement. Per Section 7 of the Agreement, the termination becomes effective 60 days from the date of the termination notice (i.e., January 12, 2026). Until then the Agreement remains operative.

8. On November 19, 2025, staff received an email from the President of the Mall Association indicating that an invoice in the amount of $5,850.00 from a vendor known as Yeah, We Get (“YWGI”) was past due (Attachment “G”) for social media and special events support in furtherance of the Mall Associations obligations under the Agreement. Staff subsequently received a call from Natasha Sanchez, co-owner of YWGI, requesting payment for three (3) outstanding invoices. Staff informed Ms. Sanchez that only one invoice was received on November 19, 2025, and that this invoice was not included in the reimbursement request submitted on November 7, 2025. Ms. Sanchez advised staff that two additional invoices were outstanding and stated she would request that the Mall Association submit them.

Page 3 of 5 ends

9. On November 24, 2025, the President of the Mall Association submitted three invoices totaling $12,293.36 for YWGI (Attachment “A”). These three invoices were not included in the November 7, 2025 reimbursement request. That same day, staff obtained written confirmation from the Mall Association authorizing the city to process these three invoices separately from the larger reimbursement request submitted on November 7, 2025 (Attachment “G”).

10. On January 5, 2026, the City Council tabled this item to the next regular City Council meeting.

11. On January 20, 2026, the City Council tabled this item to the next regular City Council meeting.

ANALYSIS:

In December 1984, the City entered into Contract No. 768 with the Mall Association to perform the activities under Ordinance No. 973, excluding mall maintenance, which remains the responsibility of the City. The agreement also authorizes the Mall Association to conduct fundraising activities, including the Outdoor Market. Proceeds from fundraising must be used to promote retail trade and public engagement within Area B.

Under the Agreement, the Mall Association is required to submit the following reports annually:

1. Annual Program and Budget Request (Due November 15).

This document identifies proposed programs and associated costs for the upcoming calendar year (January 1 through December 31). For example, a 2024 Program and Budget Request would cover the 2025 calendar year. The purpose is to outline planned activities, costs, and funding needs related to promoting retail trade and public engagement in Area B.

2. Semi-Annual Activity Report (Due January 1 and July 1) These reports describe completed activities and associated costs for the prior six-month period (July to December and January to June, respectively).

To date, the Mall Association has not submitted either the Annual Program and Budget Request or the required Semi-Annual Activity Reports. As a result, all reimbursement requests require City Council approval.

Reimbursement Requests.

Reimbursement Request No. 1 - $43,143.68 received on November 7, 2025.

The Mall Association submitted a reimbursement request totaling $43,143.68 for the following expenses (Attachment “E”):
• Website development by Sherpa Marketing: $14,866.68
• Social media and special events support by YWGI (February 2025–August 2025):

To date, the Mall Association has not provided supporting documentation required under Contract No. 768, such as invoices, contracts, proof of payment, and related records. As required by the contract, this documentation is necessary to verify that the requested reimbursement is eligible, accurately reflects expenditures incurred, and complies with the approved use of funds for activities benefiting businesses within Area B.

In particular, documentation is needed to clarify the total amount of funds available and expended by the Mall Association, including funds generated from the Outdoor Market and the manner in which certain expenses were paid. Based on information presented by the Mall Association to the Mall MOU Ad Hoc Committee on April 2, 2025, approximately $93,000 in Outdoor Market funds was available at that time, and the Mall Association has also indicated that some expenses included in the reimbursement request were paid using personal funds from Board members. These circumstances further demonstrate the need for complete financial documentation to ensure transparency and compliance with Contract No. 768.

Reimbursement Request No. 2 - $12,293.36 received on November 24, 2025.

The Mall Association submitted three unpaid invoices totaling $12,293.36 from YWGI for services provided in August and September 2025 (Attachment “A”). These invoices were not included in the November 7, 2025 request and are being processed separately at the Mall Association’s request. A summary of the request is illustrated in Table 1.

Supporting documentation from YWGI demonstrates that an agreement was executed with the Mall Association for services from July 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025, which included:
• Management of Mall Association social media with a focus on merchant engagement and community building
• Hiring, training, and management of a dedicated Executive Assistant • Quarterly merchant meetings with technology support
• Website updates and light maintenance
• Organization of monthly micro-events and promotions
The agreement specifies a cost of $7,200 per month, or $6,200 per month in months without micro-events.

Documentation further shows that invoices totaling $28,9502 for services provided between February 2025 and July 2025 have already been paid via QuickBooks or Zelle (Attachment “H”).

The three invoices included in Reimbursement Request No. 2 remain unpaid. YWGI has stopped providing services due to nonpayment.

Staff recommends approval of Reimbursement Request No. 2 in the amount of $12,293.36, with payment issued directly to YWGI for services provided.

BUDGET IMPACT:

The city collects approximately $40,000 per year from businesses in Area B. The current balance in Account No. 001-2260 is $32,804.94, which includes current encumbrances for holiday decorations. Approval of Reimbursement Request No. 2 in the amount of $12,293.36 would result in a remaining balance $20,511.58.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve Reimbursement Request No. 2 in the amount of $12,293.36 for marketing and event services provided to the Mall Association and authorize the City Manager to issue payment directly to Yeah, We Get It.

2025
As treasurer of the San Fernando Mall Association, I have been tasked by the board of directors to prepare a summary statement of expenses for reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Mall Association during the period of June to October 2025.

As you know, it has been a number of years since the Association has requested funding of any kind. Due to various factors that include a reduction in our income outside the tax funding structure, we are now in a position where a funding request is necessary. The downtown Association is committed to revitalizing the downtown mall corridor through consistent merchant engagement, coordinated marketing, and strategic events. The timely reimbursement of the requested funds will help us in these efforts.

Attached below is an itemized breakdown of expenses during this period, dates paid and their corresponding categories. Copies of invoices and receipts will be made available if needed upon request.

Feel free to reach out to me at any time to discuss and thank you for your prompt attention.

Good morning Tom,
We have received your email of November 7, 2025, transmitting a reimbursement request submitted on behalf of the San Fernando Mall Association (“Association”) for sums spent between January 31, 2025, and September 30, 2025, totaling approximately $43,143.68. We understand that this request is made pursuant to the agreement executed between the Association and the City on December 17, 1984, Contract No. 768 (the “Agreement”).

While the City does not waive any of the Association's obligations and responsibilities under the Agreement, including those found under Section 5 of the Agreement which required the submission of certain documentation by November 15, 2024 for expenditures in calendar year 2025, we nevertheless ask that you provide copies of all supporting document for the expenditures you now seek reimbursement for, including invoices, contracts, receipts and other supporting documentation associated with the expenses you list. We cannot consider you request without this information. As a budget and work plan for this period was never approved by the City Council, this reimbursement request will need to be presented to the Council for approval prior to any disbursement of funds. With all this in mind, please also note that the City does not waive any rights it has under the Agreement by this email response.

Please provide the requested documents at your earliest convenience so we can evaluate the request and determine what sums, if any, may be eligible for reimbursement. If you have any questions or need clarification regarding the required materials, feel free to reach out.

Thank you,

Thank you for sending these invoices.

Are you ok with us processing these three invoices now, separate from the larger reimbursement request submitted on November 7, 2025, given that we have not yet received the invoices and other supporting documents for other reimbursement requests. If so, we can place these invoices on the agenda for City Council consideration at the January 5, 2026 meeting. I also recommend Yeah We Get It attend the meeting.

Thank you,

AGENDA REPORT
CITY MANAGER’S OFFICE 117 MACNEIL STREET, SAN FERNANDO, CA 91340 (818) 898-1202 WWW.SANFERNANDO.GOV REVIEW: ☒ City Clerk ☒ Director of Admin. Services ☒ City Manager To: Mayor Joel Fajardo and Councilmembers
From: Kanika Kith, City Manager
By: Will Pettener, Assistant to the City Manager
Kenya Marquez, Housing Coordinator
Date: February 2, 2026
Subject: Discussion and Consideration to Approve Co-Sponsorship and Use of the City Seal with Ignite the Light of Hope Foundation for Food Distributions RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:
a. Approve Co-Sponsorship of food distribution events hosted by Ignite the Light of Hope Foundation (ITLH) to support food security and community well-being through the San Fernando Together Initiative;
b. Approve the use of the City seal on print material and social media pursuant to City Council Ordinance No. 1724 (Attachment “A”); and
c. Continue the consideration of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with ITLH to continue food distributions through an amended scope, and to provide related fundraising support to a future City Council meeting date.

BACKGROUND:

1. On July 7, 2025, the City Council approved a partnership with ITLH (Contract No. 2397) for up to $5,000 in funding to support two (2) food distributions in July, enabling food distribution efforts to become one (1) of the foundational elements of the San Fernando Together initiative. The City Council also directed staff to seek out opportunities to extend food distribution efforts into August and beyond.

2. On July 28, 2025, Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath awarded ITLH $50,000 in Discretionary Grant Funding to continue food distribution efforts in San Fernando. This effort was completed in conjunction with City staff, who issued a letter of support and coordinated directly with the Supervisor’s Office throughout the grant submission process.

3. On August 4, 2025, the City Council approved Contract No. 2412 with ITLH to provide two (2) food distributions per month and direct-to-home grocery delivery services in the City for a term of six (6) months, expiring on February 4, 2026.

4. On November 17, 2025, the City Council approved Contract No. 2412(a) with ITLH, extending the term of the agreement for one (1) year, with an addition to provide fundraising support.

5. On December 1, 2025, staff received an email from ITLH proposing the use of an MOU as a preferred alternative to a Contract Services Agreement. ITLH also communicated that they would like to revise the scope of services to commit to one (1) food distribution per month at a City facility, with a second event held in the City at either a City facility or an alternative location. The change also includes the removal of the direct-to-home grocery delivery “Bags of Hope” program from the agreement.

6. On January 20, 2026, the City Council directed staff to engage ITLH regarding the inclusion of the Bags of Hope program, and, if possible, return with options to reintegrate the service within the agreement with the City.

ANALYSIS:

On January 20, 2026, City staff presented ITLH’s request to transition from a Contract Services Agreement to a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). ITLH noted that the program operates as a collaborative, community-based partnership rather than a traditional vendor relationship, and that an MOU more accurately reflects this framework. Unlike a contract, which creates legally enforceable obligations, an MOU documents shared intent and cooperation without creating binding duties.

As part of this transition, ITLH proposed an updated scope of work. Under the proposed MOU, ITLH will no longer provide the Bags of Hope direct-to-home grocery delivery program. Instead, ITLH will commit to two food distribution events per month within the City, with at least one event held at a City facility. Distribution schedules and locations at City facilities will be determined jointly by the City and ITLH.

ITLH will retain full responsibility for program implementation, including food sourcing, logistics, volunteer coordination, and funding. The City will not provide direct financial support. The City’s role will be limited to coordination and support, such as issuing letters of support, assisting with facility use for ITLH events, sharing program information through City communication channels, and participating in coordination meetings to ensure alignment with the San Fernando Together initiative.

City Council Direction
On January 20, 2026, the City Council directed staff to engage ITLH regarding the inclusion of the Bags of Hope program, and, if possible, return with options to reintegrate the service within the agreement with the City.

February 2, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 314 of 506 Discussion and Consideration to Approve Co-Sponsorship and Use of the City Seal with Ignite the Light of Hope Foundation for Food Distributions

Page 3 of 4 ends

On January 23, 2026, staff met with ITLH representatives to discuss potential options for the Bags of Hope program. ITLH indicated they would provide follow-up options; however, this information was not received in time for inclusion in this agenda. ITLH expressed willingness to re-incorporate the program but raised concerns related to reporting requirements and costs, particularly given increased immigration enforcement activity in the region. Staff will continue working with ITLH and the City Attorney to address these concerns before returning to City Council with a revised MOU.

Co-Sponsorship
The current contract between the City and ITLH expires on February 4, 2026. A food distribution event is scheduled for February 13, 2026, after the contract expiration. To ensure continuity of services, staff is requesting City Council approval to co-sponsor the February 13, 2026 food distribution and any additional distributions with ITLH until a decision is made on the scope of a subsequent MOU.

Co-sponsorship would include the use of City-owned facilities, event equipment, and support for event promotion and community outreach, including use of the City seal. This approach allows food distributions to continue without interruption while staff works toward finalizing an MOU that may include the Bags of Hope program.

Additional Food Assistance Programs.

In addition to ITLH’s food distribution efforts, the City supports food security through:
• Monthly Senior food distribution with LA Food Bank (1st Monday at Las Palmas Park) • Daily Elderly Nutrition Program with ONEgeneration (Monday to Friday, 10am to 12pm at Las Palmas Park)
• Co-Sponsorship of weekly food distributions with Together We Thrive (Wednesdays, 4:30 pm to 6:30 p.m. at 1002 Mott Street)
• Citywide food distribution calendar listing daily food distribution events in the community operated through the City or local community-based organizations (Attachment “B”).

BUDGET IMPACT:

There is no budget impact associated with co-sponsoring ITLH food distributions. The sponsorship entails providing in-kind support, such as utilizing social media outlets for marketing and featuring the event on the City's website. Additionally, the City will waive any applicable facility permit fees associated with co-sponsored events, which could range in cost from approximately $150 - $1,000 per event, according to the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Fee Schedule.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve co-sponsorship of food distribution events hosted by Ignite the Light of Hope Foundation (ITLH) to support food security and community well-being through the San Fernando Together Initiative; approve the use of the City seal on print February 2, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 315 of 506 Discussion and Consideration to Approve Co-Sponsorship and Use of the City Seal with Ignite the Light of Hope Foundation for Food Distributions

material and social media pursuant to City Council Ordinance No. 1724 (Attachment “A”); and continue the consideration of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with ITLH to continue food distributions through an amended scope, and to provide related fundraising support to a future City Council meeting date.

5. In the 2025 calendar year, the City distributed 12 advocacy letters and 15 letters of support to various stakeholders regarding funding appropriations (Attachment “D”) in accordance with the adopted Legislative Policy, Platform and Appropriation Requests.

ANALYSIS:

A Legislative Advocacy Policy establishes guidelines and standards for utilizing resources to provide an organization’s position on proposed legislation to Federal, State, and Local elected officials. An accompanying Legislative Platform identifies an organization’s broad advocacy positions on contemporary issues and legislation. A Legislative Platform is short-term in nature, typically speaks to current issues, and is supported by a majority of the governing body.

The Legislative Advocacy Policy approved by the City Council in 2023 formalized the procedure for engaging in legislative advocacy by permitting City staff to write letters in support of, or opposition to, proposed legislation without presenting every item to City Council at a regular City Council meeting. As a result, the City has been able to quickly respond to legislative developments impacting the City as long as the position aligns with an element of the City Council-approved Legislative Platform. The Policy leaves room for the City Council to weigh in if the City Manager is unsure whether or not a proposed bill aligns with an established position on the Legislative Platform.

The following table illustrates the number of legislative advocacy letters written in the last five (5) years.
2021 2022 2023 2024 2025
Legislative Advocacy Letters Written 6 5 13 12 12
Letters of Support for Funding Provided 4 5 12 10 15
Total 10 10 25 22 27
The City documented all advocacy letters written in 2025 through the City Project and City Council Priorities Agenda Report, provided at each City Council meeting. A summary of all legislative advocacy letters written in 2025 is included as Attachment “D”.

The positions included in the proposed 2026 Legislative Platform are aligned with the City’s Strategic Goals and are informed by the League of California Cities legislative and advocacy priorities, positions that the City has taken, positions that neighboring cities have taken in recent years, and legislative priorities of other local government advocacy organizations. The common theme for all positions outlined in the platform continues to be a focus on the need to preserve local funding and local authority.

The proposed 2026 Legislative Platform does not include any changes from the City Council approved 2025 Platform, as priorities outlined by the League of California Cities and neighboring cities continued to align with the City’s existing priorities.

As the City completes a new strategic plan development process in 2026, staff will return to City Council with updated categories and considerations, as needed, to align with the approved Strategic Plan.

Legislative Appropriation Requests.

Federal and state legislative appropriation requests serve to secure financial support for City programs and initiatives while building partnerships with other federal and state government entities. By engaging in the appropriations process, the City raises awareness about priorities, provides the opportunity to collaborate with federal and state policymakers, and reduces the tax burden to local businesses and residents by leveraging outside funding sources to pay for critical infrastructure and priorities.

The proposed 2026 Legislative Appropriation Requests (Attachment “B”) focus on City Council– identified priorities that involve substantial costs and would place a significant burden on local taxpayers if funded solely through local revenues. Appropriation requests are tailored to each legislative representative based on committee assignments and past support for related policies.

Most of the proposed requests are carryovers from the 2025 Appropriation Requests, as they were not funded in 2025. Staff recommends adding two new projects not included in the prior year: funding for Phases II and III of the Las Palmas Park Revitalization Project and funding to complete the Recreation Park Field Restoration Project.

The 2026 Appropriation Requests includes seven (7) high-priority projects and four (4) medium-priority projects.

High Priority
Project Funding Requested
Citywide Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) $5,500,000 Pedestrian Gates and Railroad Crossing Improvements $7,000,000 Recreation Park Kitchen Remodel $2,500,000
Regional Emergency Operations Center and Resiliency Hubs $4,216,500 Upgrades to San Fernando Post Office at 308 S Maclay Ave $1,999,999 Las Palmas Park Revitalization Project Phase II and III $7,600,000 Recreation Park Field Restoration $1,250,000

Medium Priority
Project Funding Requested
Develop New L.A. County Library $10,000,000
Glenoaks Bridge Replacement $12,600,000
New Water Reservoir $22,000,000
Trolley Electrification $3,360,000
High-priority items are projects that the City typically brings directly to its State and/or Federal elected officials. These projects address San Fernando’s specific needs and support key City functions with more targeted uses. Medium-priority projects generally align with grant programs that are widely available at the State and/or Federal level. For these projects, the City will work with San Fernando’s State and Federal representatives to support and advocate for grant or funding applications.

City staff will continue to coordinate with legislative representatives to better understand their roles within each committee as well as their history for supporting state and federal policies that align with City’s priorities. By engaging in consistent conversation with representatives and their offices, staff can ensure requests for funding and legislative advocacy efforts are made in a timely and appropriate manner.

BUDGET IMPACT:

There is no budget impact associated with approving the 2026 Legislative Platform and legislative appropriation requests as they are included in the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 City Manager’s Office Work Plan. In the event the City is awarded any grants or additional funding, staff will return to City Council with a resolution to formally accept the award and appropriate funds.

CONCLUSION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve of the 2026 Legislative Platform in order to streamline the process by which the City Council and City staff take positions on proposed federal, state, and local legislation and approve or approve with modification of the 2026 legislative appropriation requests to submit to federal and state elected officials.

In accordance with City Council Legislative Advocacy Policy No. CC-02212023 Revised February 2026
Guiding Principles

1. Preserve Local Funding
The City supports the protection of existing state and local funding sources and the legal authority to raise and collect revenue for the City of San Fernando. Such areas include the protection of state-shared revenues, assets of the former redevelopment agency, development impact fees, and the ability to collect compensation for the use of the public right-of-way or City-owned facilities. The City opposes any new mandates that are unfunded and/or inadequately funded.

At the federal level, the City supports the preservation and enhancement of federal assistance to local governments. This includes increasing federal funding for domestic discretionary programs that support residents in San Fernando.

2. Preserve Local Authority
The City supports local decision-making authority and opposes preemption of local control. Cities are voluntarily created by the residents of a community to provide local self-government and to make decisions at a local level to best meet the needs of the community. Each community has unique needs and characteristics that are best met by policies set by its local governing body. The City supports efforts that help municipalities maintain local control for reasonable development standards of land use regulation for housing, including accessory dwelling units and single familyzoned properties.

At the Federal level, the City opposes efforts to limit the ability of local governments to address matters such as the imposition of taxes and fees, enforcement of zoning and land use regulations, or the ability to ensure the safety of our residents.
