From: Kanika Kith, City Manager
By: Erica D. Melton, Director of Administrative Services
Date: September 21, 2026
Subject: Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Approving the Warrant Register RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 26-092 (Attachment “A”) approving the Warrant Register.
BACKGROUND:
For each City Council meeting the Finance Division prepares a Warrant Register for City Council approval. The Register includes all recommended payments for the City. Checks, other than special checks, generally are not released until after the City Council approves the Register. The exceptions are for early releases to avoid penalties and interest, excessive delays and in all other circumstances favorable to the City to do so. Special checks are those payments required to be issued between Council meetings such as insurance premiums and tax deposits. Staff reviews requests for expenditures for budgetary approval and then prepares a Warrant Register for City Council approval and or ratification. Items such as payroll withholding tax deposits do not require budget approval.
The Director of Administrative Services/City Treasurer hereby certifies that all requests for expenditures have been signed by the department head, or designee, receiving the merchandise or services thereby stating that the items or services have been received and that the resulting expenditure is appropriate. The Director of Administrative Services/City Treasurer hereby certifies that each warrant has been reviewed for completeness and that sufficient funds are available for payment of the warrant register.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY CLERK DEPARTMENT 117 MACNEIL STREET, SAN FERNANDO, CA 91340 (818) 898-1204 WWW.SFCITY.ORG REVIEW: ☒ City Clerk ☒ Director of Admin. Services ☒ City Manager To: Mayor Victoria Garcia and Councilmembers
From: Kanika Kith, City Manager
By: Julia Fritz, City Clerk
Date: September 21, 2026
Subject: Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Updating the Designated Positions to the City’s Conflict of Interest Code
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8482 (Attachment “A”), amending the City’s Conflict of Interest Code to add the newly created positions of Planning Manager, Economic Development Manager, and Senior Management Analyst and amend job titles as designated positions (Exhibit “A” of Attachment “A”) subject to the applicable disclosure requirements.
BACKGROUND:
1. On October 7, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 8333 (Attachment “B”) updating the designated positions listed on the City’s Conflict of Interest Code.
2. On May 8, 2026, the City Clerk received notice from the Fair Political Practices Commission (“FPPC”) (Attachment “C”) that San Fernando’s mandatory biennial review of the City’s Conflict of Interest Code is due to be completed, and amendments, if any, must approved by the City Council no later than October 1, 2026.
ANALYSIS:
The Political Reform Act (California Government Code § 81000 et seq.) requires every local government agency to review its Conflict of Interest Code (“COI”) biennially to ensure that it remains accurate and up to date and to amend the Code, if necessary. The COI requires designated public officials and employees of state and local government agencies to disclose specified personal financial interests on a Form 700, Statement of Economic Interests. Elected officials, judges, and high-ranking appointed officials generally have the most comprehensive disclosure requirements. The COI is regulated by the California Fair Political Practices Commission that administers and enforces California’s Political Reform Act, including laws governing campaign finance, conflicts of interest, lobbying, and governmental ethics.
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 93 of 329 Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Updating the Designated Positions to the City’s Conflict of Interest Code
The COI designates employees that make, or participate in making decisions that may foreseeably have a material effect on economic interests and establishes procedures for those employees, be required to complete the California Fair Political Practices Commission (“FPPC”) Form 700 (“Statement of Economic Interests”), filed annually by April 1, with the City Clerk Department.
The City Council, Planning and Preservation Commissioners, City Manager, City Attorney, and City Treasurer are required to file an Annual Statement of Economic Interests in compliance with Government Code § 87200 and therefore those position designations are not required to be individually listed on the proposed resolution.
The last review of the City’s COI Code was evaluated and approved in October of 2024 through adoption of Resolution No. 8333. Therefore, as required biennially, staff has performed the biennial review of proposed revisions to the list of designated positions (Exhibit “A” of Attachment “A”) and categories for officers and employees of the City and its legislative bodies, pursuant to Government Code Section 87306 (a) and Section 18730 of Title 2, Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations (Attachment “D”).
During the last two years, changes to the City’s organization have occurred that include adding newly created positions: Planning Manager, Economic Development Manager, and the Senior Management Analyst as well as changes in job titles. These newly created positions and job title changes occurred subsequently to the last updated list of adopted designated positions in 2024, pursuant to Resolution No. 8333. The list of proposed designated employees (Exhibit “A” of Attachment “A”) reflects necessary changes to the City’s COI Code with the positions that have been newly added or revised are underlined and in bold.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There are no budget impacts resulting from approval of this item.
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8482 (Attachment “A”), amending the City’s Conflict of Interest Code to add the newly created positions of Planning Manager, Economic Development Manager, and Senior Management Analyst and amend job title changes, as designated positions (Exhibit “A” of Attachment “A”) subject to the applicable disclosure requirements.

FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION
2026 Conflict of Interest Code
Biennial Notice Instructions for Local Agencies
The Political Reform Act requires every local government agency to review its conflict of interest code biennially. A conflict of interest code tells public officials, governmental employees, and consultants what financial interests they must disclose on their Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700).
By July 1, 2026: The code reviewing body must notify agencies and special districts within its jurisdiction to review their conflict of interest codes.
By October 1, 2026: The biennial notice must be filed with the agency’s code reviewing body.
The FPPC has prepared a 2026 Local Agency Biennial Notice form for local agencies to complete or send to agencies within its jurisdiction to complete before submitting to the code reviewing body. The City Council is the code reviewing body for city agencies. The County Board of Supervisors is the code reviewing body for county agencies and any other local government agency whose jurisdiction is determined to be solely within the county (e.g., school districts, including certain charter schools). The FPPC is the code reviewing body for any agency with jurisdiction in more than one county and will contact them.
The Local Agency Biennial Notice is not forwarded to the FPPC.
If amendments to an agency’s conflict of interest code are necessary, the amended code must be forwarded to the code reviewing body for approval within 90 days. An agency’s amended code is not effective until it has been approved by the code reviewing body.
If you answer yes, to any of the questions below, your agency’s code probably needs to be amended.
• Is the current code more than five years old?
• Have there been any substantial changes to the agency’s organizational structure since the last code was approved?
• Have any positions been eliminated or re-named since the last code was approved? • Have any new positions been added since the last code was approved? • Have there been any substantial changes in duties or responsibilities for any positions since the last code was approved?
If you have any questions or are still not sure if you should amend your agency’s conflict of interest code, please contact the FPPC. Additional information including an online webinar regarding how to amend a conflict of interest code is available on FPPC’s website.

Accurate disclosure is essential to monitor whether officials have conflicts of interest and to help ensure public trust in government. The biennial review examines current programs to ensure that the agency’s code includes disclosure by those agency officials who make or participate in making governmental decisions.
This agency has reviewed its conflict of interest code and has determined that (check one BOX):
An amendment is required. The following amendments are necessary:
(Check all that apply.)
Include new positions
Revise disclosure categories
Revise the titles of existing positions
Delete titles of positions that have been abolished and/or positions that no longer make or participate in making governmental decisions
Other (describe)
The code is currently under review by the code reviewing body.
No amendment is required. (If your code is over five years old, amendments may be necessary.)
Verification (to be completed if no amendment is required) This agency’s code accurately designates all positions that make or participate in the making of governmental decisions. The disclosure assigned to those positions accurately requires that all investments, business positions, interests in real property, and sources of income that may foreseeably be affected materially by the decisions made by those holding designated positions are reported. The code includes all other provisions required by Government Code Section 87302.

Amendments or revisions shall be submitted to the code reviewing body within 90 days after the changed circumstances necessitating the amendments have become apparent.

2 § 18730. Provisions of Conflict of Interest Codes.
3 (a) Incorporation by reference of the terms of this regulation along with the designation 4 of employees and the formulation of disclosure categories in the Appendix referred to below 5 constitute the adoption and promulgation of a conflict of interest code within the meaning of 6 Section 87300 or the amendment of a conflict of interest code within the meaning of Section 7 87306 if the terms of this regulation are substituted for terms of a conflict of interest code 8 already in effect. A code so amended or adopted and promulgated requires the reporting of 9 reportable items in a manner substantially equivalent to the requirements of article 2 of chapter 7 10 of the Political Reform Act, Sections 81000, et seq. The requirements of a conflict of interest 11 code are in addition to other requirements of the Political Reform Act, such as the general 12 prohibition against conflicts of interest contained in Section 87100, and to other state or local 13 laws pertaining to conflicts of interest.
14 (b) The terms of a conflict of interest code amended or adopted and promulgated pursuant 15 to this regulation are as follows:
16 (1) Section 1. Definitions.
17 The definitions contained in the Political Reform Act of 1974, regulations of the Fair Political 18 Practices Commission (Regulations 18110, et seq.), and any amendments to the Act or 19 regulations, are incorporated by reference into this conflict of interest code. 20 (2) Section 2.

1 (3) Section 3. Disclosure Categories.
2 This code does not establish any disclosure obligation for those designated employees 3 who are also specified in Section 87200 if they are designated in this code in that same capacity 4 or if the geographical jurisdiction of this agency is the same as or is wholly included within the 5 jurisdiction in which those persons must report their economic interests pursuant to article 2 of 6 chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Sections 87200, et seq. 7 In addition, this code does not establish any disclosure obligation for any designated employees 8 who are designated in a conflict of interest code for another agency, if all of the following apply:

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 Victoria Garcia and Councilmembers
From: Kanika Kith, City Manager
By: Will Pettener, Assistant to the City Manager
Date: September 21, 2026
Subject: Consideration to Approve a Letter of Commitment for the California Strategic Growth Council’s Community Resiliency Center Round 2 Implementation Grant RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve a Letter of Commitment (Attachment “A”) to proceed with the California Strategic Growth Council’s (SGC) Community Resiliency Center (CRC) Round 2 Implementation Grant application.
BACKGROUND:
1. On July 18, 2016, the City Council approved Contract No. 1832 (Attachment “B”), a non-exclusive agreement with the Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians (FTBMI) for the use of Rudy Ortega Sr. and San Fernando Recreation Park facilities.
2. On August 2, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 8085 (Attachment “C”), expressing local support, acknowledgement, and apologized for the historic mistreatment of FTBMI.
3. On September 15, 2023, FTBMI applied for grant funding through the California Strategic Growth Council (SGC) for their CRC Program with support from the City and Climate Resolve.
4. On February 28, 2024, the SGC approved CRC funding for the Pasekinga Project in San Fernando for an amount up to $470,813 (Attachment “D”).
5. On July 9, 2026, FTBMI shared information with the City that $150,000 in planning grant funding was still available to the City related to the Pasekinga Project. They also informed staff that the implementation grant funding application window would be coming in Fall 2027, creating urgency to complete additional planning steps.
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 131 of 329 Consideration to Approve a Letter of Commitment for the California Strategic Growth Council’s Community Resiliency Center Round 2 Implementation Grant
6. On August 3, 2026, the City Council approved the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Professional Planning, Environmental, Architectural, and Engineering Services for Proposed CRC Sites.
ANALYSIS:
Cities increasingly face challenges such as extreme heat, drought, and limited access to safe outdoor spaces, making community resiliency a local priority. Park grant programs offer a critical opportunity for cities to enhance and expand spaces that support public health, provide climate-adaptive infrastructure, and strengthen neighborhood cohesion. By pursuing available park funding, cities can leverage external resources to create more sustainable, equitable, and resilient public spaces that benefit residents today and avoid compounding deferred maintenance at facilities needing urgent repairs.
Administered by the SGC, the CRC Program funds planning, development, construction, and upgrades of local facilities to serve as Community Resilience Centers, providing shelter and resources during climate and other emergencies, including extreme heat events and poor air quality days. The program also funds ongoing year-round community services and programs, such as information and resource distribution and workforce development trainings, that build overall community resilience. Community-serving locations may include schools, libraries, community and youth centers, health clinics, places of worship, independent living centers, and more. SGC’s CRC program will fund planning, pre-development, and implementation activities.
FTBMI, Climate Resolve, and the City have previously collaborated on the Pasekinga (Place of Shade) planning grant, which focused on preparing Las Palmas Park, Rudy Ortega Sr. Park, and Recreation Park for future implementation funding opportunities. The scope of work included community engagement and outreach for design and community needs, as well as fund site preparation processes (permitting, facility condition assessments, etc.), project readiness documentation (fiscal studies), and pre-construction steps (cost estimates and project designs) to make the project shovel-ready for CRC implementation for upcoming rounds of this grant and other similar funding opportunities.
For the current CRC Implementation Grant round, FTBMI is preparing an application for up to $10 million in funding. Based on the Facility Conditions Assessment Report (Attachment “F”) and the needs identified at the three park sites, Recreation Park has been identified as the proposed focus of the application.
A Letter of Commitment from the City is needed for FTBMI to proceed with submitting its SGC CRC Round 2 Implementation Grant application by the September 30, 2026 deadline. The proposed Letter of Commitment (Attachment “A”) confirms the City’s continued commitment to utilizing Recreation Park as a Community Resilience Center and coordinating with FTBMI on the proposed project.
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 132 of 329 Consideration to Approve a Letter of Commitment for the California Strategic Growth Council’s Community Resiliency Center Round 2 Implementation Grant
The proposed project would address five SGC strategies at Recreation Park:
• Strategy 1 - Energy Resilience through installation of new solar roof system. • Strategy 2 – Water Resilience through installation of additional drinking fountains and additional onsite water storage.
• Strategy 3 - Air Quality and Public Health through installation of a new HVAC system. • Strategy 4 - Nature-based Solutions and Food Security through remodeling the kitchen. • Strategy 5 - Emergency Preparedness and Critical Communications through enhancements to the multipurpose room, additional device charging stations, and internet connectivity through broadband service upgrades.
Letter of Commitment
As part of the CRC Round 2 Implementation Grant application, SGC requires documentation demonstrating the applicant’s partnership and commitment to the proposed Community Resilience Center. Accordingly, a Letter of Commitment from the City is needed for FTBMI to proceed with submitting the grant application.
The proposed Letter of Commitment (Attachment “A”) confirms the City’s ongoing commitment to utilizing Recreation Park as a Community Resilience Center and to coordinating with FTBMI to support implementation of the proposed grant scope. Approval of the letter will allow FTBMI to submit a complete application by the September 30, 2026 deadline.
Approval of the Letter of Commitment does not constitute approval of a future grant agreement, construction project, or City funding commitment. If the application is successful, staff will return to the City Council for consideration of the grant agreement and proposed implementation and construction activities.
The SGC anticipates announcing grant awards in Spring 2027. At that time, staff would return to the City Council with additional information and recommendations regarding the grant agreement and next steps.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There is no budget impact associated with approval of the Letter of Commitment.

SUBJECT: Letter of Commitment for the Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians' (FTBMI) Community Resilience Centers Program – Round 2 Implementation Grant Application, Recreation Park Community Resilience Center
Dear Community Resilience Centers Program (CRC),
The City of San Fernando submitted in support of the Recreation Park Community Resilience Center, the implementation phase of FTBMI’s Pasekinga (Place of Shade) Resilience Center Network (PRCN), on behalf of the City of San Fernando, a Partner to Lead Applicant FTBMI on this CRC Program Round 2 Implementation Grant application.
1. Organization Information
City of San Fernando, a general law city of approximately 24,000 residents in northeast Los Angeles County, situated wholly within FTBMI's ancestral and unceded homelands. The City has partnered with FTBMI since 2023, when it supported FTBMI's Community Resilience Centers Program planning grant application for the PRCN, and most recently through joint development of the City's Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP, adopted 2026), in which FTBMI served as a named project partner. FTBMI was a named project partner throughout the CARP's development, participating in dedicated Tribal Community Meetings, co-hosting a Tribal-only workshop to gather early feedback on resilience strategies, and reviewing the final plan with the Tribal community in January 2026.
That collaboration is embedded in the resulting plan, and it is the same collaboration that has shaped this proposal.
Role on the CRC Project: Partner, and public agency owner/operator of the proposed project site, Recreation Park.

D. Letter of Commitment for Management Capacity
The City of San Fernando commits to supporting implementation of the Recreation Park Community Resilience Center if awarded, including overseeing, managing, and implementing the City's portion of the CRC Grant. The City is a Partner on this project.
Why the City has chosen to commit to this project: Recreation Park sits at the center of the community the Center will serve, 92 percent Hispanic/Latino and disproportionately burdened by extreme heat and poor air quality, and the City's multi-year partnership with FTBMI, beginning with the 2023 CRC planning grant and continuing through the CARP, has built the shared trust and working relationship needed to deliver a project of this kind together.
Role, responsibilities, and scope of work: As Partner and public agency owner/operator of Recreation Park, the City will serve as Responsible Party for the facility's capital renovation, including gymnasium air conditioning and replacement of the facility's aging HVAC system, which fails frequently in its current condition; MERV-13 (targeting MERV-14) air filtration integrated into the new HVAC system; gymnasium flooring replacement; roof replacement; a full kitchen and multi-purpose space remodel (refrigeration/freezer capacity, ice machine, cooking stations, upgraded plumbing, and a water filtration system), building on more than $2 million the City has already invested in the facility in recent years; backup energy resiliency (described further below); ADA accessibility September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 138 of 329 California Strategic Growth Council
LETTER OF COMMITMENT – Community Resilience Centers Program Implementation Grant
upgrades consistent with the ADA Checklist for Emergency Shelters; conversion of existing multi-stall restrooms to gender-neutral facilities, following the precedent already in place at San Fernando City Hall; broadband service upgrades beyond the facility's existing time-limited guest Wi-Fi; dedicated device-charging stations for use during power outages; and on-site drinking water storage with hydration/bottle-filling stations and a water re-supply plan. The City will provide Public Works project management and construction oversight, Recreation and Community Services facility operations and community programming, and City capital funding, including the $500,000 Measure A allocation described above.
Environmental review (CEQA) and permitting: As the local agency with land use, environmental review, and building-permit authority over Recreation Park, the City of San Fernando will lead CEQA compliance and permitting coordination for the CRC Project. Because the proposed capital scope, HVAC and air filtration replacement, the kitchen and multi-purpose space remodel, ADA and gender-neutral restroom conversion, roof replacement, and rooftop solar-plus-battery installation, involves minor alteration of an existing public facility with no expansion of its footprint or use, the City anticipates the project will qualify for a Class 1 (Existing Facilities) categorical exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301. The City's Planning Division will confirm the applicable exemption, prepare and approve a Notice of Exemption, and file it with the Los Angeles County Clerk-Recorder, providing that documentation to FTBMI for submission to SGC during the Pre-Development Phase and within the first year of the grant term, consistent with Section 7.7 of the CRC Program Guidelines. The City's Public Works Department, which will provide construction oversight as described above, will also coordinate and obtain all other local permits required for the project's capital scope, including building, electrical, and plumbing permits, serving as the single point of permitting coordination for FTBMI and all Partners throughout design and construction.
Meeting required CRC functions for sleeping, food, hygiene, and medical needs:
The City is working with FTBMI to ensure Recreation Park meets the CRC Program's required functions for emergency use — space and supplies for sleeping, pet-sheltering, food distribution and food preparation/storage, showers and ADA-compliant showers, refrigeration for medicines, laundry, and portable restrooms in the event of water disruptions — through a combination of on-site capital improvements and pre-identified, planned off-site partnerships consistent with the Program Guidelines. The kitchen and multi-purpose space remodel described above will support on-site food distribution and preparation. For sleeping-space supplies, pet-sheltering, showers, and laundry, the City has September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 139 of 329 California Strategic Growth Council
LETTER OF COMMITMENT – Community Resilience Centers Program Implementation Grant
engaged the American Red Cross, building on the January 8, 2026 Shelter Facility Owner Pre-Survey, to seek guidance and is identifying local veterinary, animal-shelter, and laundry providers as potential subcontracted partners. The City will budget for a standing rental arrangement for portable restrooms to be deployed in the event of a water-service disruption, and will finalize documentation of these partnerships as part of the full application.
Backup power and on-site renewable energy: Under the CRC Program Guidelines, backup power and battery storage systems funded through the grant may not be fossil-fuel or diesel-generated. Per guidance the project team received from CRC technical assistance staff, a system need not be solar-powered specifically, but diesel and other fossil-fuel generation are explicitly identified as ineligible costs.
Given this requirement, and the limited availability of comparable non-solar renewable alternatives at this site, the City supports on-site solar photovoltaic (PV) installation on the Recreation Park facility roof, paired with battery storage, as the project's backup power solution. An on-site solar-plus-storage system would ensure Recreation Park's backup power is both generated and stored on-site from renewable energy rather than fossil fuels, while also reliably powering the Center's required device-charging stations for medical equipment, communications devices, and mobility devices during grid outages. Paseki Strategies Corporation, FTBMI's affiliated energy development entity, has prepared a preliminary technical schematic sizing solar PV capacity based on available roof square footage at Recreation Park and two other City park sites.
Capacity to implement, including Partner coordination, community engagement, year-round programming, evaluation, and reporting: The City's capacity is demonstrated by its institutionalized Asset Management Program, built on its 2026 Facility Condition Assessment and adopted Five-Year Facilities CIP; by its track record of co-producing 14 community engagement events with FTBMI and Climate Resolve during CARP development; and by its ongoing operation of year-round recreation programming at the site, including the Summer Lunch Program, UCLA Head Start, and after-school programs, which will continue and expand through this project. The City's Recreation and Community Services and Public Works Departments will support Partner coordination, community engagement, and reporting throughout the grant term.
Approach and commitment to on-time, on-budget delivery: The City's approach is grounded in the same data-driven capital planning process used to develop its Five-Year Facilities CIP: phased scopes of work, cost estimates validated by a third-party Facility Condition Assessment, and dedicated funding already appropriated September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 140 of 329 California Strategic Growth Council

4. Additional Support, Commitments, or References
The City's commitment to this CRC Project builds on a sustained government-to-government partnership with FTBMI and on goals both governments have already adopted. The City's Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP, March 2026) formally acknowledges the ancestral and unceded homelands of Patzkunga and Pasék'va, includes FTBMI as a named project partner, and commits the City — through Cornerstone Measure CS-1 and Measure SG-2 — to develop year-round community resilience hubs and build capacity with sovereign Tribal Nations.
FTBMI's own January 2024 Tribal Climate Resiliency Plan independently names the Sylmar/San Fernando area a top-priority location for resilience hubs and tree canopy and recommends that FTBMI "coordinate and partner with local public agencies to retrofit and upgrade cooling features in public places" — naming SGC's Community Resilience Centers Grant Program by name as the funding source for exactly this kind of partnership.
The project's scope responds directly to all three plans: reliable cooling and backup power (Strategy 1, Energy Resilience, and Strategy 3, Air Quality and Public Health), a renovated kitchen aligned with the City's food and workforce programming (Strategy 4, Nature-based Solutions and Food Security), and shelter-readiness upgrades (Strategy 5, Emergency Preparedness and Critical Communications) — for a community that is 92 percent Hispanic/Latino and includes 27 units of senior housing adjacent to the park. As a small city of just 2.4 square miles, entirely surrounded by the City of Los Angeles, San Fernando is well positioned to demonstrate a replicable, city-level model of Tribal-municipal resilience partnership for other small cities and under-resourced neighborhoods, including comparable communities in Los Angeles.

Subject: Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Accepting the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control Alcohol Policing Partnership Grant Funds to Support the Police Department’s Underage Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program, and Adopt a Resolution to Appropriate the Funds for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Adopted Budget
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
a. Adopt Resolution No. 8483 (Attachment “A”) authorizing the City Manager or designee to execute Standard Agreement No. 26-APP35 (Exhibit “A” to Attachment “A” – Contract No. 2589 and Exhibit “B” to Attachment “A” – Scope of Work), accepting $86,516 in Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Alcohol Policing Partnership (APP) Grant Funds; and b. Adopt Resolution No. 8484 (Attachment “B”) amending the budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026- 2027 to appropriate the grant revenues and expenses.
BACKGROUND:
1. On September 2, 2025, the City Council accepted $75,000 in Grant funds from the State of California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) to support SFPD’s Under-Age Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program, which focused on reducing underage drinking and limiting youth access to alcohol through licensee education and enforcement operations.
2. In January 2026, SFPD received notification from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control of the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the 2026-2027 Alcohol Policing Partnership (APP) Program.
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 149 of 329 Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Accepting the 2026-27 California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control Alcohol Policing Partnership Grant Funds to Support the Police Department’s Under-Age Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program, and Adopt a Resolution to Appropriate the Funds for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Adopted Budget
3. On March 26, 2026, SFPD submitted a grant application to the State of California Alcoholic Beverage Control Alcohol Police Partnership Program requesting $86,516, subject to subsequent City Council authorization.
4. On April 6, 2026, the City Council authorized the submittal of a grant application to the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control in an amount up to $100,000 to support the SFPD’s Under-Age Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program.
5. On June 3, 2026, SFPD received a notice of funding award from ABC in the amount of $86,516 for the Under-Age Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program (Attachment “C”) ANALYSIS:
Since 2005, the San Fernando Police Department (SFPD) has received grant funding from the State of California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) for an Under-Age Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program
The California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), established in 1955, is responsible for regulating the manufacture, distribution, and sale of alcoholic beverages in California. ABC provides licensing, education, and enforcement services. Since 1995, ABC has partnered with cities and counties through the Alcohol Policing Partnership (APP) Program to address alcohol-related problems through coordinated education and enforcement efforts with local law enforcement agencies.
ABC’s funding priorities focus on several programs aimed at preventing alcohol-related crimes through education and enforcement. Its prevention efforts include:
1. Informed Merchants Preventing Alcohol Related Crime Tendencies (IMPACT) Program – provides education to ABC-licensed businesses regarding alcohol laws, responsible business practices, and ways to reduce alcohol-related crime and nuisance activity.
2. License Education of Alcohol and Drugs (LEAD) Program – provides free, voluntary training to alcohol retailers, managers, and employees regarding responsible alcool sales and service.
3. Minor Decoy Program and the Shoulder Tap Program – uses supervised underage decoys to identify businesses that illegally sell alcohol to minors and adults who illegally purchase or provide alcohol to minors.

4. Retail Operating Standards Task Force (ROSTF) - addresses nuisance and public safety issues associated with ABC-licensed businesses through coordinated inspections and enforcement.
5. Target Responsibility for Alcohol Connected Emergencies (TRACE) Program - investigates the source of alcoholic beverages provided to minors involved in serious injury or fatal incidents.
6. Trap Door initiative - focuses on identifying minors who attempt to purchase alcohol or enter licensed establishments using false identification.
The grant award will allow SFPD to conduct targeted education and enforcement activities intended to prevent underage drinking and youth access to alcohol. Specifically, SFPD applied for and received funding for the following 2026-2027 activities:
1) Five (5) Minor Decoy Operations
2) Five (5) Shoulder Tap Operations
3) Five (5) IMPACT Inspections of ABC-licensed businesses 4) Three (3) Roll Call Trainings, including TRACE training 5) One (1) Neighborhood Watch presentation on ABC-related topics 6) One (1) LEAD Training
7) Press Releases (announcing the start of the program, after each Minor Decoy Operation and after each Shoulder Tap Operation)
8) Attendance of two (2) Detectives at one (1) ABC Grant Conference 9) TRACE utilization, if needed
The operation period of the grant is July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. The ABC Grant will fund overtime for these activities, provide funds used during Minor Decoy and Shoulder Tap Operations to conduct supervised alcohol purchase attempts, and cover travel expenses for two (2) detectives to attend the ABC Grant Conference.
Upon acceptance of the 2026-2027 grant funds, the City will issue the first press release announcing the grant program, post the announcement on the City’s social media platforms, and begin scheduling the approved activities.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The ABC APP Grant will reimburse the City for the costs incurred for approved grant activities. To receive and administer the $86,516 grant award, SFPD must enter into an agreement with the September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 151 of 329 Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Accepting the 2026-27 California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control Alcohol Policing Partnership Grant Funds to Support the Police Department’s Under-Age Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program, and Adopt a Resolution to Appropriate the Funds for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Adopted Budget
California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Adoption of the attached resolution is required to amend the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Adopted Budget to recognize the grant revenue (Account No. 110-3696-3718) and appropriate the corresponding expenditures (Account No. 110-220-3718-Various).
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8483 authorizing the City Manager or designee to execute Standard Agreement No. 26-APP35 (Exhibit “A” to Attachment “A” – Contract No. 2589) and accept $86,516 in ABC APP Grant funds to support SFPD’s Underage Alcohol Purchase Prevention Program; and adopt Resolution No. 8484 amending the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Adopted Budget to appropriate the grant revenues and expenditures.

These services were provided in a limited capacity based on HALA’s available operating budget and external funding sources.

ANALYSIS:
Housing instability and homelessness continue to affect individuals and families throughout Los Angeles County, including residents of the City of San Fernando. Providing access to homelessness prevention, rental assistance, affordable housing opportunities, and related supportive services is essential to helping households maintain stable housing and reducing the number of residents who enter or remain in homelessness.
To address these needs, the City has developed partnerships and programs that provide housing assistance and supportive services to San Fernando residents. In 2024, the City partnered with HALA to provide comprehensive homeless services, including case management, emergency motel vouchers, security deposit assistance, and eviction prevention assistance. These services help households experiencing or at risk of homelessness address immediate housing needs and work toward long-term stability.
Measure A Funding
Measure A provides an ongoing funding source for local and regional housing and homelessness programs. The City receives Measure A funding through two separate funding streams: a direct allocation from Los Angeles County and an indirect allocation administered by the Los Angeles County Affordable Housing Solutions Agency (LACAHSA) and received through the San Fernando Valley Council of Governments (SFVCOG).
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 178 of 329 Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Appropriating Measure A Funds and Approve a Third Amendment to the Contractual Services Agreement with Home Again Los Angeles
The direct Measure A allocation is received through the County’s Local Solutions Fund and is used to support North Valley Caring Services’ (NVCS) street outreach, engagement, and housing navigation services. The indirect Measure A allocation is divided among three LACAHSA funding categories and supports HALA’s homelessness prevention services, affordable housing activities, and technical assistance.
Indirect Measure A funding is administered by LACAHSA and provided to the City through SFVCOG, which serves as the Eligible Jurisdiction responsible for coordinating the allocation of funds to its member jurisdictions. LACAHSA requires the funding to be budgeted across three eligible categories, and the City receives a distinct allocation under each category.
For Fiscal Year 2026-2027, the City’s total indirect Measure A allocation is $519,197, distributed as follows:

• $116,748 for HALA services, including:
o $18,242 for program administration and case management. o $98,506 for emergency rental assistance, including security deposits and rental arrears.
• $29,188 will be reserved for legal services and renter education and will be brought to the City Council for consideration at a later date.
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 179 of 329 Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Appropriating Measure A Funds and Approve a Third Amendment to the Contractual Services Agreement with Home Again Los Angeles
Home Again LA Services Overview.
HALA is a 501(c)3 non-profit homeless service provider founded in 2010 by an association of pastors from various congregations in the East San Fernando Valley as a result of the 2008 recession and the growing population of families with children experiencing homelessness.
Since then, HALA has evolved its programing to focus on five (5) core programs: Shelter, Rapid Rehousing, Eviction Prevention, Transitional Housing, and Education/Outreach.
Under the current agreement, HALA has provided one (1) part-time case manager stationed at the Business and Community Resource Center (BCRC) two (2) days a week. The case manager assists households seeking supportive services and provides referrals related to housing stability, financial assistance, employment, health care, and food assistance. HALA also administers the City’s security deposit assistance, eviction prevention, and San Fernando Together Financial Assistance programs.
From November 2025 to August 2026, HALA has:
• Assisted 6 households with rental assistance and eviction prevention • Assisted 16 individuals with security deposits
• Assisted 28 households with financial assistance through the San Fernando Together initiative
Continuation of the partnership will allow HALA to continue providing case management and supportive service referrals in addition to assisting:
• A minimum of 10 families through the security deposit program, offering deposits of up to $3,000 per family.
• A minimum of 10 families through the eviction prevention program (rental assistance program), providing up to $2,000 per month for three (3) months to help prevent eviction and maintain housing stability.
The number of households ultimately served will depend on each household’s circumstances and the type and amount of assistance provided.
The proposed Third Amendment will provide $116,748 in funding for HALA’s services for the upcoming one-year contract term. The amendment will increase the agreement’s cumulative not-to-exceed amount from $298,184 to $414,932, which represents the total authorized over the life of the agreement, including the original agreement and all subsequent amendments. The amendment will also extend the agreement for one (1) year, with the option to extend for one (1) additional year.
The proposed amendment will be funded through the City’s indirect Measure A funding. HALA’s security deposit and eviction prevention assistance programs are consistent with the eligible uses of this funding category.
September 21, 2026 Special & Regular CC Mtg Page 180 of 329 Consideration to Adopt a Resolution Appropriating Measure A Funds and Approve a Third Amendment to the Contractual Services Agreement with Home Again Los Angeles
BUDGET IMPACT:
The contract total for $116,748 for HALA will be funded entirely through Measure A allocation through an indirect allocation disbursed through LACAHSA and transferred to the City through the San Fernando Valley Council of Government’s (SFVCOG). The SFVCOG has already executed a Memorandum of Understanding with LACAHSA and will facilitate direct pass through of funds at the City’s request. Resolution No. 8485 will appropriate $519,197 in total indirect Measure A funds to support the proposed HALA contract extension for a term of one (1) calendar year.
Measure A homeless services allocations will continue to be provided to the City on an annual basis. Staff anticipates that the City will receive budget projections and funding allocations in a more timely manner from LACAHSA for Fiscal Year 2027-2028, allowing for a more seamless contract and budgeting process.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8485 (Attachment “A”) amending the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Adopted Budget to appropriate Measure A funds; approve a third amendment to Contract No. 2300 with Home Again Los Angeles (Attachment “B”) to increase the maximum compensation by $116,748, to provide comprehensive homeless services; and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to make non-substantive edits and execute all related documents.

7 The LACAHSA Act limits direct allocations to only certain cities; other cities may only receive funding through a COG or Regional Housing Trust. Because Lancaster and Palmdale are the only cities that are not part of a COG, their portion is allocated to the North Los Angeles County Transportation Coalition JPA. The JPA is in the process of establishing a regional housing trust that will be the final recipient of funds—exact agency name is tentative.
