CONSENT AGENDA
Monthly Report on the Status of Debt Instruments Issued through the City of Santa Fe Springs Public Financing Authority (PFA)

BACKGROUND
The Santa Fe Springs Public Financing Authority (PFA) is a City entity that has periodically issued debt for the benefit of the Santa Fe Springs community. The following is a brief status report on the debt instruments currently outstanding that were issued through the PFA.

Consolidated Redevelopment Project 2006-A Tax Allocation Bonds Financing proceeds available for appropriation at 1/31/2022 None Outstanding principal at 1/31/2022 $39,761,479
Bond Repayment
The former Community Development Commission (CDC) issued a number of tax allocation bonds before it was dissolved by State law effective February 1, 2012 which are administered by the City acting as Successor Agency under the oversight of the appointed Oversight Board. The Successor Agency no longer receives tax increment. Instead, distributions from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) are received based on approved obligations. It is anticipated that sufficient allocations from the RPTTF will continue to be made to the Successor Agency to meet ongoing debt service obligations.

Unspent Bond Proceeds
Under an approved Bond Expenditure Agreement, unspent bond proceeds of the former CDC in the amount of approximately $19 million were transferred to the City in July 2014.

The funds are to be spent in accordance with the original bond documents. The unspent proceeds continue to be a source of funding within the City’s capital improvement program (CIP).
2016 Bond Refunding
In July 2016, the Successor Agency issued its 2016 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, which paid off several bond issuances of the former CDC. The bonds were originally issued through the Public Financing Authority and included the 2001 Series A, 2002 Series A, 2003 Series A, the current interest portion of the 2006 Series A, and 2006 Series B bond issuances.

RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the report.

CONSENT AGENDA
Monthly Report on the Status of Debt Instruments Issued through the City of Santa Fe Springs Water Utility Authority (WUA)

BACKGROUND
The Santa Fe Springs Water Utility Authority (WUA) is a City entity that has issued debt for the benefit of the Santa Fe Springs community. The following is a brief status report on the debt instruments currently outstanding that were issued through the WUA.

Water Revenue Bonds, 2013
Financing proceeds available for appropriation at 1/31/2022 None Outstanding principal at 1/31/2022 $6,890,000
Water Revenue Bonds, 2018
Financing proceeds available for appropriation at 1/31/2022 None Outstanding principal at 1/31/2022 $1,025,000
In May 2013 the Water Utility Authority issued the 2013 Water Revenue Bonds in the amount of $6,890,000. The bonds refunded the existing 2003 Water Revenue Bonds (issued through the Public Financing Authority) and provided additional funds for water improvement projects in the amount of $2,134,339. The funds were restricted for use on water system improvements. In August 2013 the Water Utility Authority Board appropriated the proceeds for the Equipping Water Well No. 12 Project and all proceeds were since used on this project.

In January 2018 the Water Utility Authority issued the 2018 Water Revenue Bonds in the amount of $1,800,000. The bonds refunded the existing 2005 Water Revenue Bonds (issued through the Public Financing Authority). No additional funds were raised through the issuance of the 2018 Water Revenue Bonds.

The City budget includes sufficient appropriations and adequate revenues are expected to be collected to meet the debt service obligations associated with the 2013 and 2018 Water Revenue Bonds.

RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the report.

CONSENT AGENDA
Status Update of Water-Related Capital Improvement Projects

BACKGROUND
This report is for informational purposes only. The following is a listing of current active water projects.

Water Well No. 2 Assessment Status Update
Constructed in 1963, Water Well No. 2 has been inactive since 2006 due to a change in water quality requirements from the State Water Board. On July 20, 2021, the City Council approved awarding the contract to General Pump Company Inc. to assess Water Well No. 2. The contractor completed the initial assessment and has submitted to the City their final report, which confirmed only one contaminant, and provided two scenarios for treatment, the report recommends assessing the well’s structural condition, which includes an additional, more detailed video log. Staff concurs with performing a gyroscopic/deviation survey and finally a Casing Inspection Thickness Measurement (CITM) survey. This is addressed as a separate item on this agenda.

Staff is currently investigating cost-effective treatment options that will remove the one verified contaminant and get Water Well No. 2 operational once again to produce safe drinking water.

FISCAL IMPACT
A total of $167,000 has been budgeted for Water Well No. 2 assessment.

INFRASTRUCTURE IMPACT
A comprehensive assessment of Water Well No. 2 has provided City staff the information needed to determine that the water well can be rehabilitated and minimal treatment is necessary to meet all drinking water standards. This project has the very likely potential to allow the City to deliver high-quality groundwater and reduce the City’s dependence on costly imported water from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.

Water Well No. 2 Assessment - Contract Change Order No. 1

BACKGROUND
On July 20, 2021, the City Council approved awarding a contract to General Pump Company Inc. to assess Water Well No. 2. The contractor completed the initial assessment and recommends assessing the well’s structural condition to ensure rehabilitation is possible. The initial assessment showed only one contaminant requiring treatment. Assessing the well’s structural condition, which includes an additional, more detailed video log, performing a gyroscopic/deviation survey, and a Casing Inspection Thickness Measurement (CITM) survey are the next steps in a water well rehabilitation.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney’s office has reviewed the Contract Change Order No. 1.

FISCAL IMPACT
The original contract amount was for $139,300. However, removal of the existing pump and installation of a temporary pump was not needed. This resulted in a savings of $39,450. Therefore, with the change order the total project cost is $121,809. A total of $167,000 has been budgeted for Water Well No. 2 assessment. The change order amount of $21,969.00 is within the total project budget.

INFRASTRUCTURE IMPACT
An initial assessment of Water Well No. 2 has provided City staff with the information needed to determine that the water well can be rehabilitated and requires minimal treatment to meet all drinking water standards.

This project has the potential to allow the City to deliver high-quality groundwater and reduce the City’s dependence on costly imported water from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.

CITY COUNCIL

3. STUDY SESSION
General Plan Update Presentation (Planning)
Recommendation:

Receive the presentation from the City’s General Plan consultant, MIG, and provide feedback as desired.

Director of Planning, Wayne Morrell called upon Laura Stetson from MIG to provide a presentation on the General Plan Update. She explained that the minimum requirements of a General Plan must be comprehensive in scope and long-term in horizon, address the entire city and its sphere of influence, be internally consistent, comply with State law, and reflect community values and vision. She spoke about the several General Plan elements which will be the foundation of the City, and stated that the Land Use, Housing and Circulation Elements are integrated and must be adopted together.

Jose Rodriguez from MIG spoke about the Environmental Justice and its importance to the community. He provided information on pollution burdens. Councilmember Sarno asked which active businesses are responsible for pollution problems in the past. Mr.

Rodriguez responded that there are 14 businesses in Santa Fe Springs that generate air pollutants that generate 106 tons/year of Criteria Pollutants, and 11,012 pounds/year of Toxic Pollutants. The goal of the General Plan is to reduce the amount of pollutants in the future, and that there are existing businesses that have landfills and produce methane gas and hazardous materials. To reduce pollution burdens, the General Plan establishes Green Buffer Zones, expands Light Industrial Zone zoning, enforces and monitors, prioritizes cleanups, and provides community education. Director Morrell stated that the goal is to ensure that future businesses cannot produce as much pollution near residential areas.

Associate Planner, Laurel Reimer provided an update on Freeway Commercial Land Use Designation and expanded on the long-term vision of the General Plan. She also provided hypothetical potential redevelopment scenarios and expansion scenarios.

Minutes of the January 18, 2022 Special City Council Meeting

Assistant Director of Planning, Cuong Nguyen spoke about the Preferred Draft Land Use Plan. Councilmember Sarno inquired about the recommended limits of the California Air Resource Board. Assistant Director Nguyen stated that they are simply recommendations and final approval rests with Council. He continued with reasons why buffers should be implemented for sensitive land uses. Councilmember Sarno asked how many businesses still exist that fall under Heavy Industrial Land Uses and requested a copy of the name of those businesses. Assistant Director Nguyen responded that there are currently concrete batch plants, chemical manufacturing facilities, truck terminals, and salvage yards located within 500 feet of residential areas.

Director Morrell clarified that the plans goal is to reduce current types of usage when they are redeveloped to minimize pollutants. He added that those uses will not be done away with immediately, only when the property is redeveloped. Councilmember Sarno expressed dissatisfaction at rezoning areas that are not close to residential areas. City Manager, Raymond R. Cruz stated that rezoning is an important topic, and most of the concerns and comments made by the business community are being brought forward by those that are located by residential areas. Planner Reimer provided clarification on buffer areas and the type of areas that are of most concern to residents.

Assistant Director Nguyen continued to speak about focus areas and catalytic sites, including a potential downtown area, Telegraph Road Corridor, and I-5 Freeway Corridor. He provided information on the Former Vons Distribution Center and other proposed land use map areas. Director Morrell summarized that the future vision of the City’s redevelopment is based on the responsibility to do what is right for the City’s residents and the residents of neighboring cities.

4. PUBLIC COMMENTS: The following people spoke during Public Comments: Jose Cornejo, Jeff Farano, Raffi Minasian, Jeff Hamilton, Ryan Hall, Lang Cottrell, T.

Summerfield, and Steve Masura via Zoom.

Council addressed the need for additional study sessions. City Manager Cruz stated that the reason for today’s special meeting was to respond to feedback from previous meetings with City businesses, and that special meetings can be created at any time at Council’s discretion.

CONSENT AGENDA
A Resolution of the City Council Reaffirming the Existence of a Local Emergency Due to the Threat of COVID-19 (pursuant to Government Code section 8630)

BACKGROUND
On March 4, 2020, the Governor of California issued a proclamation declaring a state of emergency due to the threat of COVID-19. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States issued a proclamation of national emergency, beginning March 1, 2020, due to the COVID-19 outbreak. On March 17, 2020, the City Manager, acting as the Director of Emergency Services, issued a proclamation declaring the existence of a local emergency beginning March 12, 2020, due to the threat of COVID-19. On March 18, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9668 ratifying the proclamation, and on April 9, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9669 relating to taking action in response to the local emergency. The City Council has continued to reaffirm the existence of a local emergency due to the threat of COVID-19.

Government Code section 8630(c) provides that the City Council shall review the need for continuing the local emergency at least once every 60 days until the City Council terminates the local emergency. The state of emergency still exists and has not been lifted at the statewide or county level. The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health issued a revised health order on January 10, 2022, which states that the County remains at a high rate of transmission based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicators. The health order also states that the Delta variant, which remains predominant in Los Angeles County, is two times as contagious as earlier variants and continues to lead to increased infections, and that the arrival of the Omicron variant may further increase risk of infection.

The reasons for declaring a local emergency still exist, and therefore, staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution affirming the existence of a local emergency in accordance with Government Code section 8630(c).

CONSENT AGENDA
A Resolution of the City Council Affirming Authorization of Remote Teleconference Meetings

BACKGROUND
At its regular meeting of December 7, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9747 authorizing the City Council and all legislative bodies and committees of the City to meet by teleconference. In order to continue holding teleconference meetings pursuant to this new law, an agency is required, at least every 30 days, to make the following findings by majority vote:
(A) The legislative body has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency.
(B) Any of the following circumstances exist:
(i) The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person.
(ii) State or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.

On March 4, 2020, the Governor issued a proclamation declaring a state of emergency due to the threat of COVID-19. The California Department of Public Health and the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health have issued public health orders during this state of emergency for the purpose of reducing transmission of COVID-19. Such orders have included social distancing requirements. The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person due to a number of factors, including the high number of daily cases and community transmission and increased transmission of COVID-19 by the Delta variant. The Department of Public Health has stated that the Delta variant is two times as contagious as earlier variants, remains predominant in Los Angeles County, and continues to lead to increased infections.

Accordingly, staff has prepared the attached resolution to continue to authorize remote teleconference meetings and will include on all future meeting agendas such a resolution until such time as the state of emergency ceases, or as otherwise directed by the City Council.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Section 155.834 of the Zoning Ordinance provides that, in considering any request for a change of zone, the City Council shall satisfy itself that the following conditions have been met:
(A) That there is a real need in the community for more of the types of uses permitted by the zone requested than can be accommodated in the areas already zoned for such use.

1. There is a need in the community for additional housing in general. Santa Fe Springs is a predominantly industrial community with most of its residential neighborhoods built out in the 1950s. Approximately ten percent of the City's

8.9 square miles is zoned for residential uses, and virtually all of those areas are now fully developed.

2. Based on SCAG’s growth forecast, the City of Santa Fe Springs, along with the rest of the region, is expected to experience future growth in population and employment; thus, residential uses are needed to accommodate said future growth. Table 1 outlines the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) population, housing, and employment forecast for Santa Fe Springs.

Source: SCAG 2012 RTP Growth Forecast, website:
http://www.scag.ca.gov/DataAndTools/Pages/GrowthForecasting.aspx As seen in the table, between 2019 and 2035, the population is projected to increase by 2,670 individuals, housing is projected to increase by 400 units, and employment is projected to increase by 900. With the projected increases in population and employment, combined with the complete build-out of residentially zoned areas of the City, there is a definite need for additional residentially zoned properties in the City. The only way to facilitate such land uses in the City is to provide additional housing. One means of doing so is through general plan amendments and zone changes similar to the proposed zone change request.
(B) That the property involved in the proposed change of zone is more suitable for the uses permitted in the proposed zone than for the uses permitted in the present zone classification.

The property involved in the proposed change of zone is developed with a church within the PF, Public Facilities, Zone. The church has not been utilized for more than three years. There are three churches within a half mile from the Property.

Although the uses within the PF, Public Facilities, Zone are compatible with the surrounding properties, the uses within the R-3, Multiple Family, Zone will be much more suitable with the various residential uses that currently surround the Property. (C) That the proposed change of zone would not be detrimental in any way to persons or property in the surrounding area, nor the community in general.

The proposed Zone Change will not be detrimental to persons or properties in the surrounding area. The proposed condominium project will have the following positive impacts: (1) address the housing shortage in the City by adding up to 54 condominium units and expanding the economic variety of housing in the City; (2) promote jobs/housing balance by locating attractive housing in proximity to employment centers and convenient freeway access (approximately 0.5 miles from the I-5 Freeway); (3) provide a project that incorporates high-quality landscaping and aesthetics, creating a more beautiful and livable neighborhood APPROVED:

environment; (4) increase the existing property value for the Property as well as surrounding properties.
(D) That the proposed change of zone will not adversely affect the master plan of the city.

The General Plan is the master plan of the city. The General Plan provides the overall direction for the future development of the City. It is a comprehensive planning document that addresses the many aspects of community life in the City of Santa Fe Springs. It is a long-range plan in that it seeks to provide for the needs of the community into the future. The General Plan is also flexible enough to respond to the changing needs and concerns of those who live, work, and frequent Santa Fe Springs.

The General Plan consists of eight mandatory elements, including 1) Land Use; 2) Housing; 3) Open Space; 4) Conservation; 5) Safety; 6) Circulation; 7) Noise; and 8) Environmental Justice. There is no evidence to suggest that the proposed Zone Change will adversely affect the master plan of the city.

The following table (Table 2) illustrates how the proposed Zone Change will be consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan.

Land Use Policy 5: Provide an environment to stimulate
local employment, community spirit, property
values, community stability, the tax base, and

Consistent: The proposed
condominium development will be
priced at current market rates,
resulting in increased property
values for the surrounding
community. Additionally, the future
residents of the proposed
development will be near several
commercial businesses, located less
than a mile north of the subject site.

These businesses should see a

townhomes, and higher density apartments and
condominiums.

Consistent: As part of the project, a
Tentative Tract Map to subdivide the
air space of the property to allow for
the construction of a high-density
condominium development is
proposed. Said project will fulfill a

to the existing natural and built environment.

Consistent: The proposed
condominium development will be
surrounded by various single-family
and multi-family residential uses on
the south, northeast, and west sides
of the subject property. North of the
subject property is the Lake Center

CONSENT AGENDA
Quarterly Treasurer’s Report of Investments for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2021

BACKGROUND
Beginning January 2016, the City retained PFM Asset Management LLC (“PFMAM”) to manage $20.8 million of the City’s reserve funds (“managed portfolio”).

Based on a cash flow analysis and discussion with PFMAM and the Council Finance Subcommittee, an additional $10.0 million of the City’s reserve funds were added to the portfolio in May 2017 bringing the total principal invested to $30.8 million.

At the end of each calendar quarter, PFMAM provides a detailed written report covering general market conditions as well as the balances and transactions of the City’s portfolio for the previous quarter. PFMAM’s detailed report is attached to this Treasurer’s Report. The Treasurer’s Report for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2021 was also emailed to each Councilmember on January 31, 2022.

Ms. Sarah Meacham, Director with PFMAM, along with her staff, have also regularly provided an update, including a detailed review of the results of the portfolio for the quarter, a discussion of the investment strategies and policies which govern the City’s portfolio, and general market conditions.

CITY INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
The City’s managed portfolio generated interest income in the amount of $145,930 for the most recent quarter. The interest income represents actual cash receipts received by the City plus the amortization of any discounts or premiums. The figure does not include unrealized gains or losses.

The overall performance of the City’s managed portfolio account is expressed in a “yield” and “total return”. The yield is a forward-looking measurement which shows the income and dividends on the investments to be expected in the future based on current holdings, expressed as an annual rate of return. The City’s yield (at cost value) at December 31, 2021 was 1.24%, down from 1.30% the previous quarter.

Total return on the other hand, is a backward-looking measurement focused on not only interest earned, but also realized and unrealized gains/losses. Realized gains/losses result from selling a security at a price higher or lower than was actually

paid to purchase it. Unrealized gains/losses result from market value increases and decreases in security values for securities which are still held in the portfolio.

Of particular importance to the City’s portfolio is the inverse relationship between yield and market value. In general, when yields go up, market values go down, and vice versa. For example, if the City is holding a bond which pays 1.0% and the market yield increases to 1.1% the market value of the City’s 1.0% security will decline so that an investor purchasing the security would pay a price below face value which would cause the security to yield 1.1% even though it only pays 1.0%. If held until maturity, the security would pay the full face value along with the 1.0% stated interest throughout the term. In other words, “unrealized” gains/losses are not “realized” unless the security is actually sold prior to maturity.

The yield at June 30, 2016 was 1.25% and fell to 1.24% as of December 31, 2021.

This has resulted in unrealized gains, however, it is important to point out that the investments continue to pay the stated interest on the security. The unrealized gains simply represent the amount that the City would gain, if the security was sold in the current market conditions. It is not an actual gain of the City’s principal value invested.

It is also important to remember that rising yield markets are good in the sense that as securities mature, they are replaced with higher rate securities, increasing the overall interest income of the portfolio.

Because the total return (as opposed to the yield) takes into account realized and unrealized gains/losses, it is generally compared against a target benchmark to evaluate portfolio performance. The City’s benchmark is the 1-5 Year U.S. Treasury Index. The total return for the City’s portfolio for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was (0.75%) while the benchmark total return was (0.68%). The City’s overall portfolio performance was 0.07% less than the benchmark. Since inception of the managed portfolio (January 2016) the total return for the City’s portfolio was 1.86% (1.76% net of fees) vs. the benchmark total return of 1.55% through December 31, 2021.

Aside from the PFMAM managed portfolio, the City’s other investments are the Local Agency Investment Fund (“LAIF”), a pooled investment fund managed by the California State Treasurer, and the First American Treasury Obligations Fund, a U.S.

Treasury money market fund (“MMF”) used by the City’s bond trustee. LAIF returned an annualized rate of 0.23% for the quarter while the MMF returned 1.00%. The LAIF accounts returned a total of $39,304 in interest income.

City Council Meeting February 15, 2022
Report Submitted By: Travis Hickey, City Treasurer
Lana Dich, Asst. City Treasurer Date of Report: February 10, 2022 City of Santa Fe Springs
The attached Treasurer’s Report contains all investments under the control of the City.

The investments, at market value, are summarized as follows:

Pooled Cash and Investments $ 83.9 million

Spending on multiple capital projects has occurred and these funds will be drawn down for deposit into the City’s pooled cash and investments.

The bond reserves and debt service funds consist of the MMF accounts held, as required, by the City’s third party trustee, U.S. Bank. These funds are held for debt service payments and reserves for bond issuances of the Water Utility Authority, the Successor Agency, and the Heritage Springs Assessment District.

The investments, at market value, are summarized by type as follows:

PFMAM Managed Portfolio $ 33.9 million
LAIF 68.2 million

Summary►In Q4, U.S. economic conditions were characterized by: (1) a surge in COVID casesas the Omicron variant spread widely; (2) a sharply falling unemployment rate, risingwages, and near-record number of job openings; (3) stickier-than-expected inflation aspent-up consumer demand clashed with continued global supply chain disruptions amida tight labor market and; (4) a pivot by the Fed to remove monetary accommodationmore quickly, setting the stage for rate hikes to begin sooner than previously expected.►The public health situation remained precarious with the emergence of the Omicron
variant to COVID-19. The surge in new cases affected small businesses alreadychallenged by labor shortages and rising prices due to supply chain challenges.The labor market continued to recover, with the unemployment rate falling to a cyclelow, plentiful job opportunities and rising wages. Although the economy has largelyrebounded from the pandemic-induced recession, the massive monetary and fiscalsupport from the Fed and Congress has triggered a multi-decade surge in inflation.►While growth is forecast to remain above trend, the real challenge for 2022 is gettinginflation down. Mounting inflationary pressures prompted accelerated tapering of bondpurchases by the Fed and pulled forward expected rate hikes. Tapering is expected to becomplete by mid-March followed by three rate hikes in 2022. The Fed may also let someof its $8.7 trillion balance sheet roll off sometime later in the year.Economic Snapshot►U.S. real GDP growth slowed sharply in Q3 to a modest 2.3%, well below the 6.5% growth rate in the first half of 2021. The lackluster growth reflected a slowdown inconsumer spending as the Delta variant dampened confidence and behavior. Personalconsumption grew at just 2% compared to the previous quarter’s 12%. Nevertheless,economists predict a solid rebound for Q4, with the Atlanta Fed forecasting growth ofover 6%.►The unemployment rate dropped to 3.9% in December, compared to the record lowpre-pandemic level of 3.5%. In the past 50 years, unemployment has only been lowerduring the 22 months prior to the pandemic and for one month in 2000. Although theU.S. economy added a record 6.4 million jobs in 2021, overall employment remainsbelow its pre-pandemic figure largely due to people dropping out of the labor force Thisimbalance created a shortage of workers and kept pressure on wages as employersbattle to attract and retain workers.►Inflation was shockingly high, with the CPI reaching 7% year-over-year. Sharply
higher prices for gasoline, heating oil and other energy products were most pronounced.New and used cars continued to show large price increases, but inflation became morewidespread and persistent.►Manufacturing and services activity chilled a bit with both the ISM Manufacturing andNon-Manufacturing PMI surveys pulling back at quarter end. Nonetheless, both indicesremain well above the 50-point threshold indicating growth.►Demand for homes remained exceptionally strong, but inventories are lean, leading toeven higher prices. Higher prices amid higher mortgage rates will negatively affectaffordability and present a headwind to further price increases. Existing home sales rose by 1.9% to a 6.46 million-unit annual rate in November, marking the third consecutive month of increases, while unseasonably mild weather helped boost housing startsby 12%. Bolstered by near-record-low inventories and high backlogs, home builderconfidence is near an all-time high.Interest Rates►U.S. Treasury yields generally rose in the quarter and th e yield curve flattened, as
short- to intermediate-term maturities increased between 30 and 40 bps, led higher byexpectations for faster Fed rate hikes. Meanwhile, rate changes were more muted tomodestly lower on the longer end of the curve, which reflected expectations for longerterm normalization of inflation and GDP growth. At quarter-end, the yield on a3-monthU.S. Treasury Bill stood at 0.03%, the 2-year note rose to 0.73%, the 5-year noteclimbed to 1.26%, the 10-year note increased to 1.51%, while the 30-year ended thequarter at 1.90%.►As a result of yield changes over the quarter, U.S. Treasury returns were largely negative, except for the shortest and longest tenors. For example, the 3-month U.S.Treasury index returned 0.01% for the quarter and the 10-year U.S. Treasury indexreturned 0.75%. Meanwhile, those indexes representing the “belly” of the curve postednegative returns, with the 2-, 3-, and 5-year Treasury indices returning -0.51%, -0.85%,and -0.90%, respectively.

Sector Performance►Investment in non-government sectors was a modest detract or to portfolio
performance in Q4 as yield spreads on most investment-grade (IG) fixed-income sectorswidened off recent rock bottom levels. As a result, most IG spread sectors producednegative excess returns for Q4, underperforming similar-maturity Treasuries.►Federal agencies were not immune to the broad spread widening experienced in Q4, generating slightly negative excess returns. Although callable yield spreads widenedmodestly over the quarter due to an uptick in volatility, spreads generally remained low.Non-callable agencies markedly outperformed their optionable counterparts.►The taxable municipal sector was one of the best performing IG sectors during Q4,generating positive excess returns. Municipals performed well as lean supply was metwith robust demand for new issues, ultimately keeping spreads in check.►IG corporates slightly underperformed in Q4 after consistently being one of the topperforming sectors in prior quarters, as incremental spreads widened due to rising rates and the prospects for reduced monetary support from the Fed. As a result, IGcorporatesposted negative excess returns, with longer duration issues underperforming shorterones. Underperformance was generally consistent across the quality ratings spectrum.►Federal agency-backed mortgage-backed security (MBS) excess returns were generally negative across most collateral and coupon types except 15-year MBS passthroughs. Conventional 15-year collateral generated modest outperformance, while30-year collateral MBS and Agency CMBS underperformed. The Fed’s announcementof accelerated asset purchase tapering and the looming balance sheet reduction incombination with slowing refinancing activity has weighed on the sector. It is likely topersist for at least the near term.

Glossary
Accrued Interest: Interest that is due on a bond or other fixed income security since the last interest payment was made.Agencies: Federal agency securities and/or Government-sponsored enterprises.Amortized Cost: The original cost of the principal of the security is adjusted for the amount of the periodic reduction of any discount or premium from the purchase date until the date of the report. Discount or premium with respect to short-term securities (those with less than one year to maturity at time of issuance) is amortized on a straight line basis. Such discount or premium with respect to longer-term securities is amortized using the constant yield basis.

Asset-Backed Security: A financial instrument collateralized by an underlying pool of assets – usually ones that generate a cash flow from debt, such as loans, leases, credit card balances, and receivables.

Bankers’ Acceptance: A draft or bill or exchange accepted by a bank or trust company.

PUBLIC HEARING
State of California Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) Grant Program

BACKGROUND
The Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) program provides grants to each city and county and five special districts that provide law enforcement within the State of California. COPS funds are allocated among cities and counties and special districts providing law enforcement services in proportion to population, except that: A). County populations are the populations in incorporated areas, and B). Each agency is to be allocated a minimum of $100,000. As such, the City is entitled to a State of California Citizens’ Option for Public (COPS) Grant of $100,000. Funds from the COPS program must be used exclusively to fund the frontline municipal police services. Based on a review of law enforcement priorities, staff is recommending that funds be expended on the payment of:
• The cost for a Traffic Officer (for FY 2021/2022, the cost of the Traffic Officer assigned to the City is $233,900; $100,000 would be paid using COPS funds and the remaining balance covered by the City (General Fund)).

The expenditure of these funds requires that the City conduct a Public Hearing to gain input from citizens as to how these funds should be expended.

FISCAL IMPACT
The State COPS program has remained a necessary supplemental funding source, which has provided the City with the means for additional public safety resources.

Raymond R. Cruz
City Manager

RECOMMENDATION(S)
• Open the Public Hearing;
• Receive any comments from the public wishing to speak on this matter and thereafter close the Public Hearing; and
• Approve the expenditure of the State of California Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) grant funds as outlined in the plan contained herein.

PUBLIC HEARING
Resolution No. 9763 – Approval of Programs/Projects Proposed for Funding During FY 2022/2023 Under the City’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Cooperation Agreement with the County of Los Angeles

BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Fe Springs participates in the Los Angeles Urban County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, a U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) entitlement program administered by the County of Los Angeles Community Development Commission (LACDC). Although the funds are an “entitlement,” every year, the City must make specific application to the County defining the projects to be funded. The application requires public participation subject to proper notification of at least 14 days. Accordingly, notices were posted from February 1, 2022 to February 15, 2022, at City Hall, the kiosk at Town Center Hall, the and City Library advising the public of this hearing.

For FY 2022-2023, the City has been granted a CDBG allocation in the amount of $130,000. These funds can be utilized for a proposed CDBG project that meets one of the following three national objectives:

1. Benefit low- and moderate-income persons;

2. Elimination of slums or blight;

3. Meet an urgent need.

Based on staff review, it is recommended that the City’s CDBG funding for FY 2022-23 be allocated pursuant to the funding breakdown outlined below. Approval of the allocation and proposed programs allows staff to comply with the Community Development Commission requirement to report a preliminary summary of the projected use of our annual CDBG allocation. These programs and budget allocations can be further modified or amended when City Council reviews the City’s Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget.

RECOMMENDATION
• Open the Public Hearing and hear from anyone wishing to speak on this matter;
• Approve the acceptance of CDBG funds as described in the body of this report;
• Adopt Resolution No. 9763; and
• Authorize Staff to transmit the planning documents to the County of Los Angeles Community Development Commission.

NEW BUSINESS
Approval of 2022 Art Fest Event Professional Services Agreement

BACKGROUND
Due to COVID-19, the City has not held its annual SFS Art Fest since May of 2019. In May of 2020, the event had been planned; however, all City facilities were closed and events were canceled due to the pandemic. At the November 12, 2020 City Council meeting, Council approved a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Crepes and Grapes Café, LLC. Sandra Hahn. The PSA was approved in the amount of $49,600 for the 2021 Art Fest scheduled for May 7, 2021 which included a Juried Film Exhibit and Collector’s Night (now known as the Preview & Art Showcase) on May 6, 2021.

At the time of the approval, it was determined that if the 2021 SFS Art Fest was canceled due to COVID-19, there would not be a virtual program. The costs of the virtual program were considered to be too cost prohibitive. In addition, payments to the consultant had been mostly deferred to further along in the planning process to allow for consideration of event cancellation.

With the resurgence in COVID-19 cases in 2021 throughout the State of California, staff explored options for still holding the event, but later in the year. The best option found was to hold the event on November 5, 2021 with the Preview & Art Showcase scheduled for November 4, 2021. The consultant agreed with City staff regarding the date change. All exhibits in the original agreement were adjusted to accommodate the new event date, including the payment schedule. The City Council approved Amendment One to the PSA at the meeting of January 28, 2021.

The Art Fest Consultant, Sandra Hahn, received $10,000 at the signing of the agreement which was applied towards preparations for the event in the categories of Concept and Design, marketing, meetings with potential sponsors, filmmakers, and updating all materials associated with the event.

RECOMMENDATION:
• Authorize the Director of Community Services to execute and administer a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Crepes and Grapes Café, LLC.

Sandra Hahn, for consulting services for the 2022 Art Fest event, including extending or otherwise modifying the Agreement in response to any COVIDrelated impacts.

City of Santa Fe Springs
Subsequent to the approval of Amendment One, the Heritage Arts Advisory Committee raised concerns regarding the timing of the 2021 Art Fest and felt that it was in the City’s interest to cancel the event. At the Heritage Arts Advisory Committee meeting of March 30, 2021, members expressed their concern over holding the event in November 2021. The concerns were mainly about the feasibility of having an event in November followed by another Art Fest in May 2022.

Members felt that the time frame was too narrow and voiced concerns regarding fundraising, vendor issues, inclement weather, and the costs of having two major events in the same fiscal year. The members felt it would be better to wait until May 2022 to hold the annual SFS Art Fest event. At the April 27, 2021 Heritage Arts Advisory Committee meeting, members voted unanimously to recommend the cancellation of the 2021 SFS Art Fest. Staff were in agreement with the decision.

At the May 18, 2021 City Council meeting, Council approved the Heritage Arts Advisory Committee’s recommendation to cancel the 2021 SFS Art Fest, to include the Art Consultant’s Professional Services Agreement. The Art Fest Consultant, Sandra Hahn, agreed to apply the $10,000 payment to offset her costs for the 2022 Art Fest event.

The 2022 Art Fest will follow the same format as in previous years and will continue to include educational workshops, local artists, art vendors, art for purchase, and enhanced entertainment, food and beverages. The film component will also continue in 2022. Additionally, Ms. Hahn will coordinate and enhance the Preview & Art Showcase (formerly Collector’s Night) on Thursday, May 5, 2022. On this evening, our business residents will have an opportunity to enjoy an art mixer, view art, and purchase art pieces as well. Staff will work with the Santa Fe Springs Chamber of Commerce to promote this event and ensure its success.

The following are the anticipated services to be performed by the consultant for the 2022 Art Fest:

Pre-Art Fest Preparation:

Artist commissioning/recruitment – “Calling All Artists”– Commission professional artists, recruit youth artists in the local middle schools, high schools, colleges and non-profit organizations. Also to include city employees and their family members.

Recruitment of Pop-up Artist Vendors – Recruit and secure pop-up artist vendors to include cultural jewelry, handcrafted items, textiles, etc.

Juried Film International Exhibit/Film Freeway Platform – Provide an “Open Call” for emerging filmmakers through Film Freeway. Recruitment of filmmakers to include a biography and cinematic screen shots of the artist’s work.

NEW BUSINESS
Agreement with the City of La Mirada to Provide Traffic Signal and Street Lighting Maintenance Services

BACKGROUND
On September 10, 2015, the cities of Santa Fe Springs and La Mirada entered into an agreement whereby Santa Fe Springs provides traffic signal maintenance to La Mirada. Santa Fe Springs maintains one traffic signal as well as two flashing beacons, 4 soffit lights, 12 street lights, and 5 walkway lights under the agreement. The original term was for 5 years. The agreement needs to be reinstated since it has expired.

The services to be provided to La Mirada include routine maintenance of the traffic signal and flashing beacons which would be done on a monthly basis; and extraordinary maintenance that would be performed on the traffic signal, flashing beacons, soffit lighting, street lighting, and walkway lighting on an as-needed basis.

These two services are consistent with the services that are performed for the other five contract cities.

The agreement is a five-year agreement and would terminate in February 2027. Due to the fact that the Cities of Santa Fe Springs and La Mirada jointly own the traffic signal, flashing beacons, and soffit lighting, the costs associated with the routine and/or extraordinary maintenance of these devices would be split 50/50 between the two agencies. The costs associated with the routine maintenance cost for the Valley View Avenue at Stage traffic signal to be paid by La Mirada would be $37.50 (50% of $75.00) per month. The routine maintenance cost of the flashing beacons would be $20.00 (50% of $40.00) per month. Costs for extraordinary maintenance of the traffic signal, flashing beacons, and soffit lighting will be billed at 50% the actual cost of labor, equipment, and materials used, plus agreed upon markups and indirect costs. Costs for extraordinary maintenance of the street lighting and walkway lighting located in La Mirada will be billed at the actual cost of labor, equipment, and materials used, plus agreed upon markups and indirect costs. The agreement contains a termination clause where the agreement can be cancelled by either party after 90 days written notice.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney’s office has reviewed the agreement.

RECOMMENDATION
• Approve the agreement with the City of La Mirada to provide Traffic Signal Maintenance Services; and
• Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement with the City of La Mirada.

DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPROVAL CASE NO. 978
Site Plan
The applicant is proposing to construct a new 92,771 sq. ft. concrete tilt-up industrial building at 12511 & 12521 Los Nietos Road (APN: 8168-009-033 and 8168-008-049). The proposed industrial building will be setback a minimum 66’ from the front property line along Los Nietos Road. The proposed development will provide two (2) driveways along Los Nietos Road for ingress and egress: a 40’ wide driveway to the west and a 26’ wide driveway to the east. Parking for the subject property is evenly distributed along all four sides of the proposed building.

Floor Plan
The floor plan indicates that the proposed industrial building will measure 92,771 sq. ft., with 3,500 sq. ft. designated as first floor office area, 2,800 sq. ft. designated as second floor office area, and the remaining 86,471 sq. ft. designated for warehouse/manufacturing use.

Elevations
The elevations indicate that the proposed industrial building will have a TPM No. 083429 & DPA Case No. 978 Page 4 of 15
Report Submitted By: Claudia Jimenez Date of Report: May 7, 2021 Planning and Development Department
contemporary design. The main entry and office area (south, east, and west elevations) are provided with extensive glazing, color variation, pop-outs, height variation, and material used. The remaining elevations have been provided with a combination of the aforementioned architectural treatments, which results in an aesthetically pleasing building.

Landscape Requirement
For maximum value, the majority of the landscaping will be provided along the front setback areas that adjoins Los Nietos Road. Additionally, as required by the Code, the applicant will landscape at least 6% of the parking area. The minimum landscape requirement for the project, based on the overall street frontage of 356’- 7” and 109,126 sq. ft. of parking area is 15,463 sq. ft. According to the conceptual landscape plan, the applicant will be providing an overall total of 16,121 sq. ft. of landscaping throughout the site. The project, therefore, exceeds the minimum requirement set forth in the City’s Zoning Ordinance.

Parking Requirements
A total of 138 parking stalls will be provided for the new building: 99 standard stalls, 27 compact stalls, 7 electric vehicle stalls, and 5 accessible stalls. As proposed, the project is required to provide a total of 138 parking stalls. • 1 stall per 500 sq. ft. for the first 20,000 sq. ft. = 40 stalls, 1 stall per 750 sq. ft. for the next 80,000 sq. ft. = 98 stalls = 138 stalls.

The proposed project, therefore, meets the minimum parking requirements set forth by the City’s Zoning Ordinance.

Loading/ Roll Up Doors
According to the site plan, the proposed building will have a total of thirteen (13) loading doors, including one (1) grade level door and twelve (12) dock high doors, along the west elevation. All loading doors are strategically placed so that they will not be directly visible from Los Nietos Road. Additionally, the applicant will provide a 14’ high screen wall with a 12’ high metal swing gate to provide additional screening for on-site truck activities.

Per the City’s Zoning Ordinance, all off-street truck loading areas, zones, ramps, doors, wells, or docks shall be designed to provide and maintain a minimum unobstructed area of 120’ to allow for proper truck maneuvering on-site. According to the site plan, the proposed project will provide the required unobstructed area in all necessary locations.

Trash Enclosures
According to the site plan, an 8’ (518 sq. ft.)” high trash enclosure will be located TPM No. 083429 & DPA Case No. 978 Page 5 of 15
Report Submitted By: Claudia Jimenez Date of Report: May 7, 2021 Planning and Development Department
along the west elevation. The proposed trash enclosure is strategically placed behind the proposed 14’ high screen wall and thus, will not be visible or accessible to the public.

A. The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot commercial industrial warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development.15 The proposed project area is located within a rapidly urbanizing metropolitan neighborhood in southeastern Los Angeles County. Once developed, public viewsheds of the surrounding areas would continue to be visible from the public right-of-way. The proposed project will facilitate the redevelopment of a site occupied with four older industrial buildings.

As a result, no impacts will occur.

B. According to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), Los Nietos Road is not located within close proximity to a designated State or County designated scenic highway.16 The closest designated scenic highway to the project site is a 7-mile segment of the Orange Freeway (SR-57), located approximately 12 miles to the east of the project site.17 Two locations in the City are recorded on the National Register of Historic Places and the list of California Historical Resources: the Clarke Estate and the Hawkins-Nimocks Estate (also known as the Patricio Ontiveros Adobe or Ontiveros Adobe).

The Clarke Estate is located at 10211 Pioneer Boulevard and the Ontiveros Adobe is located at 12100 Telegraph Road. The project sites do not contain any buildings listed in the State or National registrar.

As a result, no impacts will occur.

A. According to the California Department of Conservation, the project site does not contain any areas of Farmland of Statewide Importance.19 The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City. The project site itself is developed and occupied by industrial land uses. The project site is occupied by four existing industrial buildings that have a combined floor area of 90,700 square feet of floor area. These existing buildings will be demolished to accommodate the proposed project. Of the four buildings, two smaller office buildings are located along the Los Nietos Road frontage. The two larger building are single story, metal buildings located behind the aforementioned offices. The implementation of the proposed project would not involve the conversion of prime farmland, unique farmland, or farmland of statewide importance to urban uses. As a result, no impacts will occur.

B. The site is currently developed as industrial and is zoned for Heavy Manufacturing (M-2). According to the California Department of Conservation Division of Land Resource Protection, the project site is not subject to a Williamson Act Contract.20 There are no agricultural uses located within the site that would be affected by the project’s implementation. As a result, no impacts will occur. 19 California Department of Conservation, Division of Land Resource Protection, Farmland Mapping, and Monitoring Program. https://maps.conservation.ca.gov/DLRP/CIFF/

The proposed project will replace an existing industrial use with a new building. The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot commercial industrial warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development.21 The net increase in floor area will be 2,030 square feet. Specific criteria for determining a project’s conformity with the AQMP is defined in Section 12.3 of the SCAQMD’s CEQA Air Quality Handbook. The Air Quality Handbook refers to the following criteria as a means to determine a project’s conformity with the AQMP:22 ● Consistency Criteria 1 refers to a proposed project’s potential for resulting in an increase in the frequency or severity of an existing air quality violation or its potential for contributing to the continuation of an existing air quality violation.
● Consistency Criteria 2 refers to a proposed project’s potential for exceeding the assumptions included in the AQMP or other regional growth projections relevant to the AQMP’s implementation.

In terms of Criteria 1, the proposed project’s long-term (operational) airborne emissions will be below levels that the SCAQMD considers to be a significant adverse impact (refer to the analysis included in the next section where the long-term stationary and mobile emissions for the proposed project are summarized in Tables A-1 and A-2). The proposed project will also conform to Consistency Criteria 2 since it will not significantly affect any regional population, housing, and employment projections prepared for the City of Santa Fe Springs. Projects that are consistent with the projections of employment and population forecasts identified in the Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) prepared by SCAG are considered consistent with the AQMP growth projections, since the RTP/SCS forms the basis of the land use and transportation control portions of the AQMP. The proposed project will not result in any exceedance of the SCAG’s employment 21 HPA Architecture. Project Los Nietos, Overall Site Plan.

projections for the City. As a result, no impacts related to the implementation of the AQMP are anticipated.

B. According to the SCAQMD, any project is significant if it triggers or exceeds the most appropriate evaluation criteria. The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot commercial industrial warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development.23 The net increase in floor area will be 2,030 square feet. The analysis of daily construction and operational emissions was prepared utilizing the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod V. 2016.3.2). As shown in Table A-1, daily construction emissions will not exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds.

As indicated in Table A-2, the projected long-term emissions are below thresholds considered to represent a significant adverse impact. Since the project area is located in a non-attainment area for Ozone and particulates, the contractors will be required to ensure that the grading and building contractors adhere to all pertinent provisions of SCAQMD Rule 403 pertaining to the generation of fugitive dust during grading and/or the use of equipment on unpaved surfaces.24 The contractors will be responsible for being familiar with and implementing any pertinent best available control measures.

Therefore, the impacts will be less than significant.

C. The potential long-term (operational) and short-term (construction) emissions associated with the proposed project are compared to the SCAQMD's daily emissions thresholds in Tables A-1 and A-2, respectively. As indicated in these tables, the short-term and long-term emissions will not exceed the SCAQMD's daily thresholds. While the proposed project would result in additional vehicle trips, there would be a regional benefit in terms of a reduction in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) because it is an infill project that is consistent with the regional and the State sustainable growth objectives. Finally, the proposed project would not exceed the adopted projections used in the preparation of the Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy). As a result, the potential air quality impacts related to the generation of criteria pollutants are less than significant.

D. The SCAQMD has identified those land uses that are typically associated with odor complaints. These uses include activities involving livestock, rendering facilities, food processing plants, chemical plants, composting activities, refineries, landfills, and businesses involved in fiberglass molding.25 The proposed project will not result in the generation of any odors. In addition, construction truck drivers must adhere to Title 13 - §2485 of the California Code of Regulations, which limits the idling of dieselpowered vehicles to less than five minutes.26 Furthermore, the project’s contractors must adhere to SCAQMD rules and regulations that govern fugitive dust during site preparation which will significantly reduce the generation of fugitive dust. As a result, no impacts will occur. 24 South Coast Air Quality Management District. Rule 403, Fugitive Dust. As Amended June 3, 2005. 25 South Coast Air Quality Management District.

A. The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City. The project site itself is developed and occupied by industrial land uses. The project site is occupied by four existing office and industrial buildings that have a combined floor area of 90,700 square feet of floor area. These existing buildings will be demolished to accommodate the proposed project. Of the existing four buildings, two smaller office buildings are located along the Los Nietos Road frontage. A review of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife California Natural Biodiversity Database (CNDDB) Bios Viewer for the Whittier Quadrangle indicated that there are six threatened or endangered species located within the Whittier Quadrangle (the City of Santa Fe Springs is listed under the Whittier Quadrangle).27 These species include:
● The Coastal California Gnatcatcher is not likely to be found on-site due to the existing surrounding development and the lack of habitat suitable for the California Gnatcatcher. The 27 California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Bios Viewer. https://map.dfg.ca.gov/bios/?tool=cnddbQuick.

absence of coastal sage scrub, the coastal California Gnatcatcher’s primary habitat, further diminishes the likelihood of encountering such birds.28 ● The Least Bell’s Vireo lives in a riparian habitat, with a majority of the species living in San Diego County. As a result, it is not likely that any Least Bell’s Vireos will be encountered in the project area due to the lack of riparian habitat in the surrounding area.29 ● The Santa Ana Sucker will not be found on-site because the Santa Ana Sucker is a fish and there are no bodies of water present on-site.30 The nearest body of water is the La Canada Verde Creek, located approximately 0.54 miles east of the project site. ● The Bank Swallow lives in a riparian habitat and nests along rivers or streams. The nearest stream or body of water is the La Canada Verde Creek, located approximately 0.54 miles east of the project site; therefore, it is not likely that the Bank Swallow will be found on the project site. Additionally, the current level of development in the surrounding area is not an ideal environment for the Bank Swallow.31
● The Western Yellow-Billed Cuckoo is an insect-eating bird found in riparian woodland habitats. The likelihood of encountering a Western Yellow-Billed Cuckoo is low due to the level of development present within the City of Santa Fe Springs. Furthermore, the lack of riparian habitat further diminishes the likelihood of encountering populations of Western Yellow-Billed Cuckoos.32
● California Orcutt Grass is found near vernal pools throughout Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Diego Counties.33 As indicated previously, the project site is located in the midst of an urban area. There are no bodies of water located on-site that would be capable of supporting populations of California Orcutt Grass nor does the site have the capacity to form vernal pools during wet seasons.

The proposed project will have no impact on the aforementioned species because the project site is located in the midst of an urban area. The project site and the surrounding areas are not conducive to the survival of the aforementioned species due to the lack of suitable habitat. As a result, no impacts on any candidate, sensitive, or special status species will result from proposed project’s implementation. 28 Audubon.

B. According to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, there are no riverine areas located within the project boundary or adjacent parcels.34 The project site and the surrounding properties are developed in industrial uses. In addition, there is no riparian habitat located on-site or in the surrounding areas and no offsite riverine areas would be affected by the proposed development since the project’s construction would be limited to the project site. As a result, no impacts will occur.

C. No sensitive wetland habitats (e.g., vernal pools, critical habitats for sensitive species, etc.) were observed on the site during the field investigations. In addition, according to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service there are no riverine areas located within the project boundary or adjacent parcels. No offsite riverine areas would be affected by the proposed development since the project’s construction would be limited to the proposed project site. As a result, no impacts will occur.

D. The project site has no utility as a wildlife migration corridor due to the proposed site location in the midst of an urban area. Given the disturbed character of the project site, no impacts will occur.

E. General Regulations of the City of Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code Tree Ordinance establishes strict guidelines regarding the removal or tampering of trees located within any public right-of-way (such as streets and alleys). Any plans to cut, trim, prune, plant, remove, injure or interfere with any tree, shrub or plant upon any street, alley or public right-of-way within the city must be approved in advance by the City. No trees will be removed with the implementation of the proposed project. As a result, no impacts will occur.

F. The project sites and the surrounding areas are urban. The proposed project’s implementation would not be in conflict with the provisions of any adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or State habitat conservation plans. In addition, the Puente Hills Significant Ecological Area (SEA #15) is the closest protected SEA and is located approximately 3.3 miles northeast from the project site. The construction and operation of the proposed project will not affect the Puente Hills SEA because the proposed development will be restricted to the project site. Therefore, no impacts will occur.

A. The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City. The project site itself is developed and occupied by industrial land uses. The project site is occupied by four existing industrial buildings that have a combined floor area of 90,700 square feet of floor area. These existing buildings will be demolished to accommodate the proposed project. Of the existing four buildings, two smaller office buildings are located along the Los Nietos Road frontage.

Historic structures and sites are defined by local, State, and Federal criteria. The State, through the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), maintains an inventory of those sites and structures that are historically significant. Finally, the U.S. Department of Interior has established specific Federal guidelines and criteria that indicate the manner in which a site, structure, or district is to be defined as having historic significance and in the determination of its eligibility for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.35
The State regulations that govern historic resources and structures include Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 5024.1 and CEQA Guidelines Sections 15064.5(a) and 15064.5(b). In addition, California law protects Native American burials, skeletal remains, and associated grave goods regardless of the antiquity and provides for the sensitive treatment and disposition of those remains. CEQA, as codified at PRC Sections 21000 et seq., is the principal statute governing the environmental review of projects in the State. Two locations in the City are recorded on the National Register of Historic Places and the list of California Historical Resources: the Clarke Estate and the Hawkins-Nimocks Estate (also known as the Patricio Ontiveros Adobe or Ontiveros Adobe). The Clarke Estate is located at 10211 Pioneer Boulevard and the Ontiveros Adobe is located at 12100 Telegraph Road. The proposed project site is not within proximity to either of these historic landmarks and is presently vacant and undeveloped with the exception of a previous asphalt parking area. The project site is not present on the list of historic resources identified by the State Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO).36 Since the project’s 35 U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service.

B. The greater Los Angeles Basin was previously inhabited by the Gabrieleño people, named after the San Gabriel Mission. The Gabrieleño tribe has lived in this region for around 7,000 years. Prior to Spanish contact, approximately 5,000 Gabrieleño people lived in villages throughout the Los Angeles Basin.

Villages were typically located near major rivers such as the San Gabriel, Rio Hondo, or Los Angeles Rivers. Two village sites were located in the Los Nietos area: Naxaaw’na and Sehat. The sites of Naxaaw’na and Sehat are thought to be near the adobe home of Jose Manuel Nietos that was located near the San Gabriel River. In the unlikely event that human remains are uncovered by construction crews and/or the Native American Monitors, all excavation and grading activities shall be halted, and the City of Santa Fe Springs Department of Police Services will be contacted (the Department will then contact the County Coroner). Title 14; Chapter 3; Article 5; Section 15064.5 of CEQA will apply in terms of the identification of significant archaeological resources and their salvage. Adherence to the abovementioned mitigation will reduce potential impacts to levels that are less than significant.

C. There are no dedicated cemeteries located within the vicinity of the project site.37 The proposed project will be restricted to the project site and will not affect any dedicated cemeteries within the surrounding area. Notwithstanding, in the unlikely event that remains are uncovered by construction crews, all excavation and grading activities shall be halted, and the Los Angeles County Sherriff’s Department would be contacted (the Department would then contact the County Coroner). This is a standard condition under California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5(b), which states:
“In the event of discovery or recognition of any human remains in any location other than a dedicated cemetery, there shall be no further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent remains until the coroner of the county in which the human remains are discovered has determined, in accordance with Chapter 10 (commencing with (b) Section 27460) of Part 3 of Division 2 of Title 3 of the Government Code, that the remains are not subject to the provisions of Section 27491 of the Government Code or any other related provisions of law concerning investigation of the circumstances, manner and cause of any death, and the recommendations concerning the treatment and disposition of the human remains have been made to the person responsible for the excavation, or to his or her authorized representative, in the manner provided in Section 5097.98 of the Public Resources Code. The coroner shall make his or her determination within two working days from the time the person responsible for the excavation, or his or her authorized representative, notifies the coroner of the discovery or recognition of the human remains. If the coroner determines that the remains are not subject to his or her authority and if the coroner recognizes the human remains to be those of a Native American or has reason to believe that they are those of a Native American, he or she shall contact, by telephone within 24 hours, the Native American Heritage Commission.” Adherence to the aforementioned standard condition will ensure potential impacts remain at levels that are less than significant.

A. The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot commercial industrial warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development. Following development, the net increase in floor area will be 2,030 square feet. The project site is served by Southern California Edison (electricity) and the Southern California Gas Company (SCG). The utilities worksheets are included in Appendix C. The project Applicant will work with the local electrical utility company to identify existing and future strategies that will be effective in reducing energy consumption. As a result, the impact will be less than significant.

B. On January 12, 2010, the State Building Standards Commission adopted updates to the California Green Building Standards Code (Code) which became effective on January 1, 2011. The California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 24, Part 11: California Green Building Standards (Title 24) became effective to aid efforts to reduce GHG emissions associated with energy consumption. Title 24 now requires that new buildings reduce water consumption, employ building commissioning to increase building system efficiencies, divert construction waste from landfills, and install low pollutant‐emitting finish materials.

The 2016 version of the standards became effective as of January 1, 2017. The proposed project will conform to all pertinent energy conservation requirements. As a result, the potential impacts will be less than significant.

X
F. Would the project directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geological feature? X A. The City of Santa Fe Springs is located within a seismically active region. Many major and minor local faults traverse the entire Southern California region and earthquakes from several active and potentially active faults in the Southern California region could affect the project site. The site is located within a seismically active region prone to occasional damaging earthquakes. The nearest active fault is the Whittier Fault, located approximately three miles northeast of the project site. In addition, the project will comply with the 2019 California Building Standards code (which took effect in 2020), which is effective in minimizing any potential seismic-related impacts to structures. According to the United States Geological Survey, liquefaction is the process by which water-saturated sediment temporarily loses strength and acts as a fluid. Essentially, liquefaction is the process by which the ground soil loses strength due to an increase in water pressure following seismic activity. The project site is not located in an area that is subject to liquefaction. Lastly, the project site is not subject to the risk of landslides because there are no hills or mountains within the vicinity of the project site. As a result, the potential impacts in regard to ground shaking, liquefaction, and landslides are less than significant since the risk is no greater in and around the project site than for the rest of the area.

B. A geotechnical investigation of the site was completed by GPI in September 2020. Undocumented fill was encountered to depths of approximately 2 to 3 feet below existing grade in four of the five explorations. The fill soils consisted of very stiff, slightly moist to moist sandy clays and sandy silts.

Deeper fill soils may be encountered near or within the footprint of the existing building pad during grading. The natural soils below consisted of predominately clayey sands and sandy clays to a depth of approximately 10 feet, sandy silts and silts from about 10 to 25 feet, and sands and sands with silt from CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION ● CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS

CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION PAGE 37
25 feet to the 51½ foot depth explored. In general, the native finer grained soils were stiff to hard and the sandy deeper soils were dense to very dense. The natural soils have moderate strength and low compressibility characteristics. Laboratory tests indicate the upper soils have a low potential for expansion (EI of 32). Historical groundwater depths are mapped as shallow as 20 feet below grade; however, groundwater was not encountered in our explorations performed to a maximum depth of 51½ feet below ground surface. As a result, the potential impacts would be less than significant.

C. The project’s construction will not result in soil erosion since the project’s contractors must implement the construction BMPs identified in the mandatory SWPPP. The BMPs will minimize soil erosion and the discharge of sediment off-site. Additionally, the project site is not located within an area that could be subject to landslides or liquefaction.38 The soils that underlie the project site possess a low potential for shrinking and swelling. Soils that exhibit certain shrink swell characteristics become sticky when wet and expand according to the moisture content present at the time. Since the soils have a low shrinkswell potential, lateral spreading resulting from an influx of groundwater is slim. The likelihood of lateral spreading will be further reduced since the project’s implementation will not require grading and excavation that would extend to depths required to encounter groundwater. Moreover, the project will not result in the direct extraction of groundwater located below ground surface (BGS). As a result, the potential impacts will be less than significant.

D. The Web Soil Survey, which is available on the United States Geological Survey website, was consulted to identify the soils that underlie the project site. According to the Web Soil Survey, the project site is underlain with soils of the Urban Land-Thums-Pierview complex, which is partially composed of clay.
39 Shrinking and swelling is influenced by the amount of clay present in the underlying soils. Clay and silty clay loam are present in the composition of these soils and these soils associations possess a moderate shrink-swell potential.40 The project contractors will be required to comply with the structural engineer’s recommendations. As a result, the potential impacts will be less than significant.

E. No septic tanks will used for the proposed project since the new development will be connected to the sanitary sewer system. As a result, no impacts associated with the use of septic tanks will occur as part of the proposed project’s implementation.

F. According to the State of California Geological Survey, the site’s geology is classified as Urban LandThums-Pierview complex. Alluvium soil deposits that are present in a natural and undisturbed condition may contain paleontological resources, though these resources are more typically found in marine terraces and shales. The on-site soils have undergone disturbance due to the previous development, the demolition activities within the property, and the other on-site activities.

Furthermore, the on-site soils that underlie the property are Holocene-aged deposits that have a low potential for the discovery of paleontological resources. These soils are recent deposits that do not contain fossil deposits. Thus, the proposed project is not anticipated to disturb any paleontological resources and the impacts are less than significant.

GHG are emitted by both natural processes and human activities. Examples of GHG that are produced both by natural and industrial processes include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). The SCAQMD has recommended several GHG thresholds of significance. These thresholds include 1,400 metric tons of CO2E (MTCO2E) per year for commercial projects, 3,500 MTCO2E per year for residential projects, 3,000 MTCO2E per year for mixed-use projects, and 10,000 MTCO2E per year for industrial projects. Table A-3 summarizes annual greenhouse gas (CO2E) emissions from build-out of the proposed project.41 Carbon dioxide equivalent, or CO2E, is a term that is used for describing different greenhouse gases in a common and collective unit. As indicated in Table A-3, the CO2E total for the project is 10,374.34 pounds per day or 4.66 MTCO2E per day. This translates into an annual emission of 1,703.98 MTCO2E, which is well below the aforementioned threshold.

This figure (1,703.98 MTCO2E) does not take into account the implementation of Low Impact Development (LID) requirements (drought tolerant landscaping, water efficient appliances, and energy efficient appliances) and compliance to Transportation Demand Management (TDM) requirements. As indicated in the table, the great majority of the GHG emissions will be generated from mobile sources. For this reason, the project’s use of trip reduction incentives (the use of alternative forms of transportation, the installation of electric vehicle charging stations and bicycle racks, and other TDM measures will be important). The project is also an infill development within an urban area. Therefore, the project’s GHG impacts are less than significant.

B. AB-32 requires the reduction of GHG emissions to 1990 levels, which would require a minimum 28% in "business as usual" GHG emissions for the entire State. Additionally, Governor Edmund G. Brown signed into law Executive Order (E.O.) B-30-15 on April 29, 2015, the Country’s most ambitious policy for reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Executive Order B-30-15 calls for a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions below 1990 levels by 2030.42 The proposed project will not involve or require any variance from an adopted plan, policy, or regulation governing GHG emissions. As a result, no potential conflict with an applicable greenhouse gas policy plan, policy, or regulation will occur and no impacts will occur.

A Phase II Site Investigation was undertaken by Langan Engineering and Environmental Services in November 2020. Soil sample results were below the RWQCB Commercial/Industrial environmental screening levels (ESLs) with the exception of arsenic. Arsenic was detected in each soil sample at concentrations exceeding the RWQCB Commercial/Industrial ESL, with a maximum detection of 32.1 mg/kg.43 Arsenic is known to be naturally occurring at elevated concentrations in Southern California.

Based on the “Determination of a Southern California Regional Background Arsenic Concentration in Soil” published by the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) in 2008, the average 43 Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc.

background arsenic concentration in soil of the Southern California Region was determined to be approximately 12 mg/kg: with a maximum background concentration of 19.63 mg/kg. LSB-10-3-5 had the reported concentration of 32.1 mg/kg for arsenic, which was determined to be significantly different than a blind duplicate sample collected from the same interval (4.38 mg/kg). Dark gray soil was visible at this location from 2.7-7.0 ft bgs.

In order to obtain a more representative sample, the laboratory mixed and reanalyzed the sample, resulting in a revised reported concentration of 5.56 mg/kg, below the background concentration of arsenic in Southern California published by DTSC. Soil and groundwater conditions at the site are not currently under environmental regulatory oversight and the detected concentrations of arsenic in soil do not trigger a reporting requirement. Thus, no further action is recommended at this time. If excess soil is generated during future development activities, it should be characterized in accordance with receiving facility requirements and disposed of according to federal, state and local regulations. One or more of four VOCs (benzene, bromodichloromethane, chloroform, and ethylbenzene) were detected in five soil vapor samples (LSV-1-5, LSV-2-5, LSV-5-5, LSV-6-5, and LSV-7-5) at concentrations exceeding the RWQCB Commercial/Industrial ESLs and/or USEPA Commercial VISLs.44 Methane was not detected in five of the soil vapor points during this Phase II ESI. Three points (LSV2, LSV-3, and LSV-7) detected methane at 0.00014%, 0.00039%, and 0.0030%, respectively. However, the project site is located within the City of Santa Fe Spring’s Methane Zone 46, In the event that a building is constructed at the site, a vapor mitigation system is recommended for the Site. No analytes were detected in the groundwater samples exceeding the applicable commercial/industrial screening levels. Therefore, no further action is recommended.

B. During a 1995 Phase I ESA performed by Gale/Jordan Associates, Inc. (GJA), ten samples of suspected asbestos-containing material (ACM) were collected and analyzed. ACM was confirmed to be present in the mastic and floor tile samples. No abatement documentation was reviewed as part of this Phase I ESA. Based on building age (pre-1970), ACM, lead based paint (LBP), and PCB-containing materials may be present within building materials at the Subject Property.47 The site is located approximately 315 feet east of the former Waste Disposal, Inc. Landfill located at 12731 Los Nietos Road. As such, the proposed development may be required to adhere to specific protocols regarding the intrusion of methane and carbon monoxide into the indoor areas. These measures may include, but not be limited to, methane detectors and the use of methane barriers in the building construction. The requirements may be made as conditions of approval by the City of Santa Fe Springs Fire Department following their review of the proposed project.

C. The nearest school in the area includes St. Paul High School located approximately 1,675 feet to the east of the project site.

located approximately 2,000 feet to the east in unincorporated East Whittier, east of Greenleaf Avenue.45 As a result, no impacts are anticipated.

D. A search of the Envirostor Hazardous Waste and Substances Site “Cortese” List database identified two Cortese sites within the City: Sonic Plating Co., Inc. (located at 13002 Los Nietos Road) and Kelly Pipe Co., LLC (located at 11700 Bloomfield Avenue).
46 The nearest of these Cortese sites to the project site is Kelly Pipe Co., LLC, which is located approximately three-quarters of a mile southwest of the project site. The project site is also located over a contaminated groundwater plume from an upgradient Superfund site, Omega Chemical. The groundwater plume is associated with impacts of VOCs, freon, and other contaminants. The groundwater at the subject property has been analyzed for these constituents and has concluded that the findings did not exceed applicable standards.47 Furthermore, proposed project construction activities will be restricted to the designated project site and will not affect any of the aforementioned sites. The project site is not identified as a Cortese site. 48 Therefore,
the potential impacts will be less than significant.

E. Fullerton Airport is located approximately 5.17 miles southeast of the project site and the Long Beach Airport is located approximately 8.98 miles to the southwest.49 The proposed project is not located within the Runway Protection Zones (RPZ) of any of the aforementioned airports. In addition, the proposed project will not penetrate the designated slopes for any of the local airports. The proposed project will not introduce a building that will interfere with the approach and take-off of airplanes utilizing any of the aforementioned airports and will not risk the safety of the people residing or working in the project area. As a result, no impacts are anticipated.

F. At no time will Los Nietos Road be completely closed to traffic during the project’s construction. All construction staging must occur on-site. As a result, no impacts are associated with the proposed project’s implementation.

G. The project site is not located within a “very high fire hazard severity zone.”50 As a result, no impacts are anticipated.

The contractors would also be required to prepare a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) utilizing Best Management Practices to control or reduce the discharge of pollutants to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP will also identify post-construction best management practices (BMPs) that will be the responsibility of the contractors to implement over the life of the project.

Prior to issuance of any grading permit for the project that would result in soil disturbance of one or more acres of land, the Applicant shall demonstrate that coverage has been obtained under California's General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity by providing a copy of the Notice of Intent (NOI) submitted to the State Water Resources Control Board, and a copy of the subsequent notification of the issuance of a Waste Discharge Identification (WDID) Number or other CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION ● CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS

proof of filing shall be provided to the Chief Building Official and the City Engineer. In addition, the contractors would be required to prepare and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The SWPPP would be submitted to the Chief Building Official and City Engineer prior to the issuance of a grading permit. With the above mentioned standard conditions, the impacts would be reduced to levels that are considered to be less than significant.

B. A search was conducted through the Regional Water Quality Control Board’s on-line database Geotracker to identify the presence of any natural underground water wells within the project site. The search yielded no results.51 In addition, the proposed project will be connected to the City’s utility lines and will not deplete groundwater supplies. Since there are no underground wells on-site that would be impacted by the proposed development, no impacts will occur.

C. The project’s construction will be restricted to the designated project site and the project will not alter the course of any stream or river that would lead to on- or off-site siltation or erosion. The site is currently occupied and developed. No grading and/or excavation into the local aquifer will occur. No additional undisturbed land will be affected. As a result, the potential impacts will be less than significant.

D. As indicated previously, the impervious surfaces (concrete, building slabs, etc.) that will be constructed will result in the generation of storm water runoff. However, the project will be properly drained and is not expected to result in flooding on-or off-site. A City-approved grading plan will be used, which will ensure that the site will be graded so that storm water runoff will be directed to the curbs and gutters and the on-site detention. As indicated in the previous section, the proposed project will be restricted to the project site and will not alter the course of any off-site drainages. No other natural or man-made channels are located adjacent to the site or in the immediate vicinity. As a result, less than significant impacts are anticipated.

E. The proposed project will be in compliance with the City of Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code that outlines the local requirements for the implementation of the NPDES and MS4 stormwater runoff requirements. In addition, the proposed project’s implementation will not interfere with any groundwater management or recharge plan because there are no active groundwater management recharge activities on-site or in the vicinity. As a result, no impacts will occur. 51 Geotracker GAMA. http://geotracker.waterboards.ca.gov/gama/gamamap/public/default.asp. Website accessed November 24, 2020.

A. Would the project result in generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies?
X
B. Would the project result in generation of excessive groundborne vibration or ground-borne noise levels? X A. Noise levels may be described using a number of methods designed to evaluate the “loudness” of a particular noise. The most commonly used unit for measuring the level of sound is the decibel (dB).

Zero on the decibel scale represents the lowest limit of sound that can be heard by humans. The eardrum may rupture at 140 dB. In general, an increase of between 3.0 dB and 5.0 dB in the ambient noise level is considered to represent the threshold for human sensitivity. Changes of 3.0 dB or less are not generally perceptible to persons with average hearing abilities.56 The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot commercial industrial warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development. Following development, the net increase in floor area will be 2,030 square feet. The proposed project site’s legal addresses are 12511 and 12521 Los Nietos Road. The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City. No noise sensitive land uses are located within 1,000 feet of the project site. The nearest noise sensitive receptors in the area include Paul High School located approximately 1,675 feet to the east of the project site. The Whittier Union High School District offices and adult school campus is located approximately 4,500 feet to the northeast. The nearest residential neighborhood to the project site is located approximately 2,000 feet to the east in unincorporated East Whittier, east of Greenleaf Avenue.57
A change in traffic noise levels of between 3.0 dBA and 5.0 dBA is generally considered to be the limit where the change in the ambient noise levels may be perceived by persons with normal hearing. It typically requires a doubling of traffic volumes to register a perceptible change (increase) in traffic noise. As indicated in the traffic section, the proposed use is anticipated to generate approximately 162 trips per day, with 16 trips occurring during the morning (AM) peak hour and 18 trips occurring during the evening (PM) peak hour. The existing manufacturing use is generating greater traffic with 356 trips per day, with 56 trips occurring during the morning (AM) peak hour and 61 trips occurring during the evening (PM) peak hour. As a result, the existing manufacturing use will result in greater traffic volumes 56 Bugliarello, et. al. The Impact of Noise Pollution, Chapter 127, 1975. 57 Google Earth.

compared to the future warehouse use with a comparable floor area. As a result, less than significant impacts will occur.

B. Construction activities for the proposed project have the potential to generate low levels of groundborne vibration. The operation of construction equipment generates vibrations that propagate though the ground and diminishes in intensity with distance from the source. No noise sensitive land uses are located within 1,000 feet of the project site. The nearest noise sensitive receptors in the area include Paul High School located approximately 1,675 feet to the east of the project site.

The Whittier Union High School District offices and adult school campus is located approximately 4,500 feet to the northeast. The nearest residential neighborhood to the project site is located approximately 2,000 feet to the east in unincorporated East Whittier, east of Greenleaf Avenue.58 As previously mentioned, the operation of equipment or the construction of projects is prohibited in between the hours of 7:00 p.m. of one day and 7:00 a.m. of the next day when the project is located within a radius of 500 feet from a residential area. The City of Santa Fe Springs has not adopted policies or guidelines relative to ground-borne vibration resulting from construction. The City Municipal Code (Section 155.428) states, “Every use shall be so operated that the ground vibration generated by said use is not harmful or injurious to the use or development of surrounding properties. No vibration shall be permitted which is perceptible without instruments at any use alone the property line on which said use is located.”59 However, this threshold applies to groundborne vibrations from long-term operational activities, not construction. As a result, the potential ground-borne noise impacts are considered to be less than significant. 58 Google Earth. Website accessed on November 24, 2020. 59 City of Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code.

The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City. Growth-inducing impacts include the following:
● New development in an area presently undeveloped and economic factors which may influence development. The site is currently developed and is surrounded on all sides by urban development.
● Extension of roadways and other transportation facilities. No roadway extensions will be required to accommodate the proposed development.
● Extension of infrastructure and other improvements. The installation of any new utility lines will not lead to subsequent offsite development since these utility lines will serve the proposed project only.
● Major off-site public projects (treatment plants, etc.). The project’s increase in demand for utility services can be accommodated without the construction or expansion of landfills, water treatment plants, or wastewater treatment plants.
● The removal of housing requiring replacement housing elsewhere. There are no housing units located on either property. As a result, no replacement housing will be required. ● Additional population growth leading to increased demand for goods and services. The project’s construction would result in a limited increase in construction employment which can be accommodated by the local labor market.
● Short-term growth-inducing impacts related to the project’s construction. The project will result in temporary employment during the construction phase. Given the area’s unemployment rate, this additional employment demand will be beneficial.

The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot commercial industrial warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development. Following development, the net increase in floor area will be 2,030 square feet. The proposed project site’s legal addresses are 12511 and 12521 Los Nietos Road.

The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City.

A. The City of Santa Fe Springs Fire Department provides fire prevention and emergency medical services within the City. The department consists of three separate divisions: Operations, Fire Prevention and Environmental Protection. The Operations Division provides fire suppression, emergency medical services (EMS), hazardous materials response, and urban search and rescue. The Fire Prevention Division provides plan check, inspections, and public education. Finally, the Environmental Protection Division is responsible for responding to emergencies involving hazardous materials. The Fire Department operates from four stations: Station No. 1 (11300 Greenstone Avenue), Station No. 2 (8634 Dice Road), Station No. 3 (15517 Carmenita Road), and Station No. 4 (11736 Telegraph Road). The first response station to the site is station No. 1. The Fire Department currently reviews all new development plans, and future development will be required to conform to CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION ● CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS
LOS NIETOS PROJECT ● 12511 & 12521 LOS NIETOS ROAD
CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION PAGE 53
all fire protection and prevention requirements, including, but not limited to, building setbacks and emergency access. The proposed project would only place an incremental demand on fire services since the project will involve the construction of modern structures that will be subject to all pertinent fire and building codes. Like all development projects within the City, the proposed project will undergo review by the City of Santa Fe Springs Fire Department to ensure that sprinklers, hydrants, fire flow, etc. are adequate in meeting the Department’s requirements. The Department will also review the project’s emergency access and clearance. Compliance with the abovementioned requirement, as well as the pertinent codes and ordinances, would reduce the impacts to levels that are less than significant.

Construction activities also have the potential to affect fire protection services, such as emergency vehicle response times, by adding construction traffic to local roadways and potentially requiring partial lane closures during street improvements and utility installations. However, at no time will Los Nietos or any nearby street be completely closed to traffic. All construction staging areas will be located within the project site. As a result, the project would not impair the implementation of, or physically interfere with, an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan and less than significant impacts are associated with the proposed project’s implementation.

B. The City of Santa Fe Springs Department of Police Services (DPS) is responsible for management of all law enforcement services within the City. The DPS is staffed by both City personnel and officers from the City of Whittier Police Department (WPD) that provide contract law enforcement services to Santa Fe Springs. The police services contract between the two cities provides for a specified number of WPD patrolling officers though the DPS has the ability to request an increased level of service. WPD law enforcement personnel assigned to the City includes 35 sworn officers and six support personnel.60 The proposed project would only place an incremental demand on police protection services since the project is not anticipated to be an attractor for crime due to the lack of unsecure vacant space. The building and layout design of the development would include crime prevention features, such as nighttime security lighting and secure parking facilities (such as the proposed gate next to the receiving area). Adherence to the abovementioned requirement will reduce potential impacts to levels that are less than significant.

C. Pursuant to SB-50, payment of fees to the applicable school district is considered full mitigation for project-related impacts. The proposed project's school impacts will be offset by the school fees that will be paid by the developer and as a result, the impacts will be less than significant.

D. No new governmental services will be needed, and the proposed project is not expected to have any significant impact on existing governmental services. The proposed project will not directly increase demand for governmental services. As a result, no impacts are anticipated. 60 City of Whittier. https://www.cityofwhittier.org/government/police.

The project site consists of 4.57 acres and is located in the midst of an industrial area in the northeastern portion of the City. The trip generation was estimated using trip generation rates derived from the Institute of Transportation Engineer’s (ITE) 10th Edition Trip Generation Handbook. The project’s daily trips are presented in Table A-4. As shown in Table A-4, the project is anticipated to generate approximately 162 trips per day, with 16 trips occurring during the morning (AM) peak hour and 18 trips occurring during the evening (PM) peak hour. The existing manufacturing use is generating greater traffic with 356 trips per day, with 56 trips occurring during the morning (AM) peak hour and 61 trips occurring during the evening (PM) peak hour.

Net Change in Trip Distribution 194 trips/day 40 AM trips 43 PM trips The number of project-related trips that will be added will not impact any street’s or intersection’s level of service (LOS). As a result, the potential impacts are less than significant when considering the proposed industrial uses will replace a previous manufacturing use. As a result, the potential impacts are considered to be less than significant.

B. According to CEQA Guidelines §15064.3 subdivision (b)(1), vehicle miles traveled exceeding an applicable threshold of significance may indicate a significant impact. It is important to note that the project is an “infill” development, which is seen as an important strategy in combating the release of GHG emissions. The County of Los Angeles is included in the Los Angeles County Congestion Management Program (CMP), which is prepared and maintained by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro). The requirements of the CMP became effective with voter approval of Proposition 111. The CMP requires that intersections which are designated as being officially monitored by the Program be analyzed under the County’s CMP criteria if the proposed project is expected to generate 50 or more peak hour trips on a CMP-designated facility. The nearest CMPdesignated intersection to the project site is Imperial Highway/Carmenita Road. This intersection was not analyzed within the traffic impact analysis and will not experience more than 50 peak hour trips at a freeway intersection. As a result of the projected traffic conditions, no impacts on CMP arterial roadways or intersections are anticipated.

C. The proposed project is not a transportation project. As a result, no impacts on this issue will result.

D. Vehicular access to the project site will be provided by two driveway connections with Los Nietos Road.

The easternmost driveway will have a curb-to-curb width of 26-feet and will be reserved for vehicles.

The westernmost driveway will also be used for truck access and will have a curb-to-curb width of 35- feet. An internal roadway will surround the new building and will also be used as a 26-foot-wide emergency vehicle fire lane. Direct vehicular access to the truck docks is controlled by a security gate.

The design of driveways will be based on City Code, which sets standards for such design. The proposed project will not drivers to dangerous intersections or sharp curves and the proposed project will not introduce incompatible equipment or vehicles to the adjacent roads. As a result, no impacts are anticipated.

E. The project would not affect emergency access to any adjacent parcels. At no time will any local streets or parcels be closed to traffic. As a result, the proposed project’s implementation will not result in any impacts.

A. The proposed project would involve the construction of a new 92,730 square foot warehouse within the 4.57-acre (199,097 square-foot) project site. As part of the site’s development, four older existing buildings totaling approximately 90,700 square feet of floor area, will be demolished to accommodate the proposed new development. Following development, the net increase in floor area will be 2,030 square feet.

The City of Santa Fe Springs is located within the service area of the Sanitation District 2 of Los Angeles County. The nearest wastewater treatment plant to Santa Fe Springs is the Los Coyotes Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) located in Cerritos. The Los Coyotes WRP is located at 16515 Piuma Avenue in the City of Cerritos and occupies 34 acres at the northwest junction of the San Gabriel River (I-605) and the Artesia (SR-91) Freeways. The plant was placed in operation on May 25, 1970, and initially had a capacity of 12.5 million gallons per day and consisted of primary treatment and secondary treatment with activated sludge. The Los Coyotes WRP provides primary, secondary and tertiary treatment for 37.5 million gallons of wastewater per day. The plant serves a population of approximately 370,000 people. Over 5 million gallons per day of the reclaimed water is reused at over 270 reuse sites. Reuse includes landscape irrigation of schools, golf courses, parks, nurseries, and greenbelts; and industrial use at local companies for carpet dying and concrete mixing. The remainder of the effluent is discharged to the San Gabriel River. Treated wastewater is disinfected with chlorine and conveyed to the Pacific Ocean. The reclamation projects utilize pump stations from the two largest Sanitation Districts’ Water Reclamation plants includes CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION ● CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS

the San Jose Creek WRP in Whittier and Los Coyotes WRP in Cerritos.61 The Los Coyotes WRP has a design capacity of 37.5 million gallons per day (mgd) and currently processes an average flow of

20.36 mgd. As indicated in Table A-5, the future development is projected to generate 929 gallons of effluent on a daily basis which is well under the capacity of the aforementioned WRPs.

In addition, the new plumbing fixtures that will be installed will consist of water conserving fixtures as is required by the current City Code requirements. No new or expanded sewage and/or water treatment facilities will be required to accommodate the proposed project and as a result, no significant impacts are anticipated.

B. Water in the local area is supplied by the Santa Fe Springs Water Utility Authority (SFSWUA). Water is derived from two sources: groundwater and surface water. The SFSWUA pumps groundwater from the local well and disinfects this water with chlorine before distributing it to customers. SFSWUA also obtains treated and disinfected groundwater through the City of Whittier from eight active deep wells located in the Whittier Narrows area. In addition, SFSWUA receives treated groundwater from the Central Basin Water Quality Protection Program facility located in the Central Basin, through the City of Whittier. Lastly, the SFSWUA also receives Metropolitan Water District of Southern California’s (MWD) filtered and disinfected surface water, which is a blend of water from both the Colorado River and the State Water Project in Northern California. Table A-6 indicates the water consumption estimated for the proposed project. The proposed project is projected to consume approximately 927 gallons of water on a daily basis.

The existing water supply facilities can accommodate this additional demand. Therefore, no new water and wastewater treatment facilities will be needed to accommodate the excess effluent generated by the proposed project and no impacts are anticipated to occur.

C. The County of Los Angeles, acting as the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD), has the regional, County-wide flood control responsibility. LACFCD responsibilities include planning for developing and maintaining flood control facilities of regional significance which serve large drainage areas. The proposed project will be required to comply with all pertinent Federal Clean Water Act requirements. The site proposes new internal roadways and hardscape areas that will be subject to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the Regional Water Quality Control Board. The project will also be required to comply with the City's storm water management guidelines. As a result, no significant impacts are anticipated.

D. As previously indicated, Table A-6 indicates the water consumption estimated for the proposed project.

The proposed project is projected to consume approximately 927 gallons of water on a daily basis. The existing water supply facilities can accommodate this because the existing manufacturing has the ability to consume up to 12,698 gallons of water on a daily basis. As a result, no significant impacts are anticipated.

E. The Sanitation Districts operate a comprehensive solid waste management system serving the needs of a large portion of Los Angeles County. This system includes sanitary landfills, recycling centers, materials recovery/transfer facilities, and energy recovery facilities. The two operational sites are the Calabasas Landfill, located near the City of Agoura Hills, and the Scholl Canyon Landfill, located in the City of Glendale. The Puente Hills Landfill was permanently closed in October 2013 and is only currently accepting clean dirt.62 The Sanitation Districts continue to maintain environmental control systems at the other closed landfills, which include the Spadra, Palos Verdes, and Mission Canyon landfills. Local municipal solid waste collection services are currently provided by Consolidated Disposal Services, CR and R Waste and Recycling, and Serv-Wel Disposal Company.

Operational waste that cannot be recycled or taken to area landfills will be transported to the Commerce incinerator. Trash collection is provided by the Consolidated Disposal Service, CR and R Waste and Recycling, and Serv-Well Disposal Company. Table A-7 indicates the solid waste generation for the proposed project. The proposed project is projected to generate approximately 558 pounds of solid waste on a daily basis.

B. The project site is slated for development. The proposed project may be exposed to particulate emissions generated by wildland fires in the surrounding region. However, the potential impacts would not be exclusive to the project site since criteria pollutant emissions from wildland fires may affect the entire City as well as the surrounding cities and unincorporated county areas. As a result, no impacts will occur.

C. The project will not require, nor will it involve the extension of new utility lines such as gas lines, water lines, etc. other that connections to the site itself. As a result, no impacts will result.

D. There is no risk from wildfire within the project site or the surrounding area given the project site’s distance from any area that may be subject to a wildfire event. Therefore, the project will not result in any impacts related to flooding or landslides facilitated by runoff flowing down barren and charred slopes and no impacts will occur.

NOW, THEREFORE, be it RESOLVED that the PLANNING COMMISSION of the CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS does hereby RESOLVE, DETERMINE and ORDER AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION I. ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS AND DETERMINATION
Pursuant to Section 15315, Class 15 (Minor Land Divisions) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which allows for the division of property into four or fewer parcels when the division is in conformance with the general plan and zoning, no other variances or exceptions requiring environmental review are required, and all required services and access to the proposed parcels to local standards are available, the Planning Commission herby finds and determines that the proposed Tentative Parcel Map which involves the consolidation of two (2) existing parcels into a single parcel, measuring ±4.57 acres, is Categorically Exempt. It, therefore, has been determined that additional environmental analysis is not necessary to meet the requirements of CEQA.

The Planning Commission also hereby finds and determines that the proposed Development Plan Approval meets the criteria set forth within Section 15332, Class 32 (In-fill Development Projects) of CEQA. The proposed project includes the construction of a new 92,771 sq. ft. concrete tilt-up industrial building that requires no variance to the City’s Zoning Ordinance. As a result, the project is consistent with the City’s General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. It should be noted that the subject property is also less than five (5) acres, without any endangered or threatened species, and can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. Similarly to the Tentative Parcel Map, the Development Plan Approval meets the requirements of CEQA and thus does not require additional environmental analysis.

Lastly, the project site is not listed on the Hazardous Waste and Substance Site List (Cortese List) as set forth in Government Code Section 65962.5.

SECTION II. TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP FINDINGS
Pursuant to the State’s Subdivision Map Act, the Planning Commission has made the following findings:
(A) Section 66473.5 and Sections 66474(a) and (b) of the Subdivision Map Act require tentative maps to be consistent with the general plan and specific plans. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map, subject to the attached conditions, is in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act in that:

Approval of the proposed Parcel Map would promote a number of Specific General Plan Goal and Policies as described in “Table 1” below:

Table 1
General Plan Consistency Analysis
General Plan Element Policy Project Consistency
Land Use
Goal 9: Provide for growth and
diversification of industry and
industrial related activities within
the Santa Fe Springs industrial
area.

The consolidation of the individual
parcels will produce one lot that will
provide a more viable development
opportunity of the subject site.

Policy 9.4: Encourage the
grouping of adjoining small or odd
shaped parcels in order to create
more viable development.

The project involves the
consolidation of two (2) existing
parcels that make up the subject
property (APN: 8168-009-033 &
8168-008-049), into a single parcel
measuring ±4.57-acres.

Goal 11: Support and encourage
the viability of the industrial and
commercial areas of Santa Fe
Springs.

The consolidation of the existing
parcels will support and facilitate
the development of a new 92,771
sq. ft. concrete tilt-up industrial
building.

The proposed parcel map, subject to the attached conditions, is compatible with the goals and objectives of the City of Santa Fe Spring’s General Plan, and therefore, is in compliance with Government Code Sections 66473.5, and 66474(a) and (b). (B) Sections 66474(c) and (d) of the Subdivision Map Act require the site to be physically suitable for the type of development and proposed density of development.

In addition to the proposed parcel map, the applicant is concurrently seeking approval to allow for the construction of a new 92,771 sq. ft. concrete tilt-up industrial building, located along the north side of Los Nietos Road. As proposed, the new development will meet or exceed all requirements of the City’s Zoning Ordinance and as a result will not require any variances. Therefore, the subject site is physically suitable for the proposed development.
(C) Sections 66474(e) and (f) of the Subdivision Map Act require that the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat or is likely to cause serious public health concerns.

The proposed consolidation is located in an urbanized area that does not contain habitats or would otherwise injure fish and wildlife. Additionally, as required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an Initial Study was prepared for the proposed industrial project. According to the Initial Study, the project is not expected to have any impacts on biological resources or cause serious public health problems. (D) Section 66474(g) of the Subdivision Map Act requires that the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision.

As part of the review and processing of the Tentative Parcel Map, and in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act, the local school district, utility companies and easement holders associated with the subject property where notified of the subject request. As of the writing of this report, staff has not received any correspondence for or against the proposed project. Nevertheless, any new easements for utility or roadways, if necessary, will be provided prior to final map approval. Moreover, no public easements are anticipated within the proposed subdivision. (E) In accordance with Government Code Section 66474.6, it has been determined that the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision, subject to the attached conditions, into the existing sewer system will not result in a violation of the requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board in that the developer is required to comply with the IS/MND Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, submit an erosion control plan and comply with the NPDES Best Management Practices during the grading and construction phases of the project.

The project is conditioned to meet all federal, state, and local ordinances and requirements including, but not limited to, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board.
(F) That the proposed subdivision shall be in accordance with Government Code Section 66473.1, entitled “Design of Subdivisions to provide for Future Passive or Natural Heating and Cooling Opportunities.”
Future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities will be incorporated with the proposed development. To the extent feasible, staff will review the proposed development to ensure that energy-saving devices or materials, including, but not limited to, insulation, double-pane windows, and high efficiency central heating and cooling systems will be incorporated.

SECTION III. DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPROVAL FINDINGS
Pursuant to Section 155.739 of the City of Santa Fe Springs Zoning Regulations, the Planning Commission has made the following findings:
(A) That the proposed development is in conformance with the overall objectives of this chapter.

The proposed project is located within the M-2, Heavy Manufacturing, Zone. Pursuant to Section 155.240 of the Zoning Ordinance, “The purpose of the M-2 Zone is to preserve the lands of the city appropriate for heavy industrial uses, to protect these lands from intrusion by dwellings and inharmonious commercial uses, to promote uniform and orderly industrial development, to create and protect property values, to foster an efficient, wholesome and aesthetically pleasant industrial district, to attract and encourage the location of desirable industrial plants, to provide an industrial environment which will be conducive to good employee relations and pride on the part of all citizens of the community and to provide proper safeguards and appropriate transition for surrounding land uses.”
The proposed project is consistent with the purpose of the M-2 Zone in the following manner:

1. The land is appropriate for industrial uses based on its zoning, M-2, Heavy Manufacturing and its General Plan Land Use designation of Industrial. The project, as proposed, requires no variances from the City’s Zoning Ordinance.

2. The proposed project will result in a new concrete tilt-up speculative industrial building, therefore the land is being maintained for industrial uses.

3. The project involves the construction of a new attractive industrial building on a site that is currently developed with non-conforming metal buildings that were constructed in 1959. The assessed value of the property will significantly improve after the project, thus leading to an increase in property values for both the subject property and neighboring properties.

4. The new building offers new construction with modern amenities (i.e. greater ceiling height, energy efficient, etc.) that will help to attract local industrial businesses to either locate or remain in Santa Fe Springs. (B) That the architectural design of the proposed structures is such that it will enhance the general appearance of the area and be in harmony with the intent of this chapter.

The applicant is proposing to construct a new concrete-tilt up speculative industrial building on the existing site. The new concrete tilt-up industrial building has been designed with variation in the provided setback, height, color, and materials used.

The result is an attractive project with a contemporary building that is comparable to other high quality office/industrial projects in Santa Fe Springs. (C) That the proposed structures be considered on the basis of their suitability for their intended purpose and on the appropriate use of materials and on the principles of proportion and harmony of the various elements of the buildings or structures.

The proposed building is well-designed and should be highly suitable for office, manufacturing and/or warehouse-type users. The design of the new concrete tilt-up industrial building provides quality architectural design, as demonstrated by glazing, pop-outs, height variations, materials, and color. These architectural design elements break up the mass of the building, and present an attractive, distinctive façade to visitors. As designed, the new building is suitable for their intended users, and the distinctive design of the building represents the architectural principles of proportion and harmony.
(D) That consideration be given to landscaping, fencing and other elements of the proposed development to ensure that the entire development is in harmony with the objectives of this chapter.

Extensive consideration has been given to numerous elements of the proposed project to achieve harmony with the City’s Zoning Ordinance. The majority of the landscaping will be provided along Los Nietos Road for maximum aesthetic value.

Additionally, the truck wells and dock doors have been strategically placed so that they will not be directly visible from the public right-of-way. Nevertheless, a 14’ high screen wall with a 12’ high gate will be provided to screen activities within the truck yard area. And lastly, the proposed trash enclosure has been strategically placed where they are not visible or easily accessible by the public, and where they have least impact on adjacent properties.
(E) That it is not the intent of this subchapter to require any particular style or type of architecture other than that necessary to harmonize with the general area.

As stated previously, the proposed building is contemporary in design. The architect used glazing, pop-outs, height variations, materials, and color. The style and architecture of the proposed building is consistent with other high quality buildings that were recently constructed in the general area.
(F) That it is not the intent of this subchapter to interfere with architectural design except to the extent necessary to achieve the overall objectives of this chapter.

Pursuant to Section 155.736 of the Zoning Ordinance “The purpose of the development plan approval is to assure compliance with the provisions of this chapter and to give proper attention to the siting of new structures or additions or alterations to existing structures, particularly in regard to unsightly and undesirable appearance, which would have an adverse effect on surrounding properties and the community in general.” As a result, the Planning Commission believes that proper attention has been given to the location, size, and design of the proposed building.

SECTION IV. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
The Planning Commission hereby adopts Resolution No. 185-2021 to determine that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15315, Class 15 (Minor Land Divisions) and Section 15332, Class 32 (In-fill Development Projects) and to also approve Tentative Parcel Map No. 083429 to allow the consolidation of two (2) existing parcels that make up the subject property (APN: 8168-009-033 and 8168-008-049), into a single parcel measuring Elevations ±4.57-acres and Development Plan Approval Case No. 978 to allow the construction of a new 92,771 sq. ft. concrete tilt-up industrial building for the subject property located at 12511 and 12521 Los Nietos Road, subject to conditions attached hereto as Exhibit A.
