Report Submitted By: Travis Hickey Date of Report: April 13, 2023 Finance & Administrative Services

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 3/31/2023 None Outstanding principal at 3/31/2023 $37,857,128
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 3/31/2023 None Outstanding principal at 3/31/2023 $6,890,000
Water Revenue Bonds, 2018
Financing proceeds available for appropriation at 3/31/2023 None Outstanding principal at 3/31/2023 $820,000
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.

Water Utility Authority Meeting April 18, 2023
Report Submitted By: Yvette Kirrin Date of Report: April 13, 2023 Interim Director of Public Works

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 Utility AMR Metering Pilot Study
The Water Utility’s water meter reading program is the initial and vital component of the Water Utilities continued revenue stream. It is currently performed manually by the City’s two Water Meter Readers on a daily basis. Utility meter reading technology has advanced within the last twenty years, with the latest technology being Automated Meter Reading (AMR) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). AMI improves a utility’s ability to collect frequent and accurate water usage data to improve billing, leak detection, and water resource management.

Water Utility staff will begin a pilot program, installing a small number of AMI water meters throughout the City to help determine the greatest benefits and develop an implementation strategy.

INFRASTRUCTURE IMPACT
AMI meters help customers find water leaks more quickly and thus reduce wasted water and unnecessarily high water bills. Because customers have full access to their water usage data 24 hours a day, they can become proactive participants and contact City staff with any water usage concerns as they happen. This eliminates the need to wait for a bi-monthly bill to notice that something is amiss. Additionally, because water usage data is available on a timelier basis, there is less need to send customer service representatives to the site to reread a meter because the meter read information available 24 hours a day and can be accessed remotely by billing staff at City Hall.

CONSENT AGENDA
Approval of Memorandum of Understanding between City of Santa Fe Springs and Empowered 4 Life

BACKGROUND
Empowered 4 Life (E4L) is a non-profit organization based in Carson, California that is committed to providing no-cost meals to municipalities, faith-based organizations, and other non-profit organizations in the Southern California area that feed children.

E4L has been in operation since 2010. Their primary mission is to help address the issue of food insecurity in the Southern California region. E4L presently provides meals to programs overseen by the City of Bell Gardens and the City of Long Beach and with the Boys & Girls Clubs in Long Beach, Los Angeles, and Whittier just to name some of the organizations and agencies it works with.

E4L’s food safe certified staff conveniently prepares the meals in their kitchen following the dietary recommendations of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and delivers them to organizations with whom E4L has contracts for service.

In addition to meals, an individual pre-packaged snack is also provided.

E4L has provided the free meal service, uninterrupted, to the City’s Teen Program located at The Club in Town Center Hall and supervised by the Parks & Recreation Services Division in the Department of Community Services since February 2016.

This service feeds approximately 30 middle school and high school-aged youth daily.

For the past two summers, E4L has also been the meal provider for the Free Summer Lunch Program at City parks.

Meals are provided at no cost to the City. In addition, paper goods (plates, napkins, bags, etc.) and utensils for food service and meal consumption are provided at no cost to the City. Staff also receives an annual training, provided by E4L, at no cost to the City. The training covers the requirements that are outlined by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), proper food handling and distribution of meals.

E4L, the State of California Department of Education (CSDE), or the USDA may come at any time to any location to review the meal service program/operation with an announced or unannounced visit at least three times a year.

RECOMMENDATION:
 Approve a two-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Empowered 4 Life to provide no cost meals for the City’s Teen Program and Summer Lunch Program at City Parks; and

CONSENT AGENDA
Approval for the Restoration of Art Pieces, the Omni, Soaring Dreams, and Dancing Gabrielenos

BACKGROUND
The Heritage Arts Advisory Committee (HAAC), in consultation with experts in the field, are working collectively to facilitate maintenance and conservation of public art in the City of Santa Fe Springs resulting from the Heritage Arts in Public Places (HAPP) Program. Routine maintenance must be performed by qualified, trained personnel and if extraordinary maintenance is required, the artist or a qualified conservator must be retained to repair the artwork.

In late 2021, the City entered into a Professional Services agreement with Silverlake Conservation LLC for the purpose of assessing all art pieces in the City that are part of the Heritage Arts in Public Places program. The assessment encompassed a full examination and condition of the City’s artwork, field reports, and a conservation plan.

In October 2022, the HAAC began to review and prioritize restoration of art pieces from the assessment report and identified three City owned art pieces in major need of restoration. These art pieces are the Omni, Soaring Dreams, and Dancing Gabrielenos.

The Omni, located south of Soaring Dreams Plaza, is comprised of a concrete structure with tile surfaces and stainless sheeting. The sculpture is mounted onto a concrete base. The tiles include square, high-fire tiles made with colored inlaid designs and fields of small, gold luster tiles. There are some losses in the tiles on the top of the south-facing side of the sculpture. There is visible cracking and accretions on various parts of the art piece and staining and cracking on the concrete base.

Soaring Dreams, located on the corner of Telegraph Road and Pioneer Blvd. which was once a water feature has powder coated metal children figures mounted on narrow rectangular bases between 6’ and 10’ high. The figures, slightly smaller than life sized, have surface dirt, bird excrement, and small amounts of copper corrosion.

The figure of the smallest child has significant surface loss showing visible corrosion.

Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City.

General liability insurance. Contractor shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage.

Automobile liability insurance. Contractor shall maintain automobile insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01 covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Contractor arising out of or in connection with Services to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident.

Other provisions or requirements
Proof of insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance to the City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers’ compensation. Insurance certificates and endorsements must be approved by the City’s Risk Manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the City at all times during the term of this Agreement. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time.

Duration of coverage. Contractor shall procure and maintain for the duration of the Agreement insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property, which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Services hereunder by Contractor, or Contractor’s agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors. ii
Primary/noncontributing. Coverage provided by Contractor shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by the City shall not be required to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of the City before the City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.

The City’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced, the City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by the City will be promptly reimbursed by Contractor or the City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Contractor payments. In the alternative, the City may immediately terminate this Agreement.

Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VI (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the City’s Risk Manager.

Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against the City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and volunteers or shall specifically allow Contractor or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives its own right of recovery against the City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors.

Enforcement of Agreement provisions (non estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Agreement are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.

Notice of cancellation. Contractor agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to the City with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.

Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that the City and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be iii
additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.

Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to the City and approved of in writing.

Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Contractor’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.

Pass through clause. Contractor agrees to ensure that its subcontractors, and any other party involved with the Services who is brought onto or involved in the Services by Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the Services will be submitted to the City for review.

The City’s right to revise specifications. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may renegotiate Contractor’s compensation or come to some other agreement to address the additional cost.

Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. The City reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by the City.

Timely notice of claims. Contractor shall give the City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Contractor’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

Additional insurance. Contractor shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Services.

COSTA MESA
Majdi Ataya Ignacio Ochoa Justin Smeets Ryan Dennis Dayton Lowe OE provided full Design Engineering
services to the City of Costa Mesa for the
West 17th Street Widening from Placentia
Avenue to Superior Avenue. 17th Street is
a primary arterial. The Standard roadway width for a primary arterial is a 106' right of way. The existing configuration was a 2-lane divided highway with center two-way left turn lane. The existing land uses were mostly commercial properties with a new mixed-use development at the southeast corner of 17th Street and Pomona Avenue. There were 16 properties along West 17th Street within the limits of this widening. The properties along West 17th Street had varying R/W frontages. This meant that widening affected each property differently. The design intent was to meet the classification of four-lane Primary Arterial as described in the OCTA Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH). This includes 2-lanes in each direction with a median.

segment from Deerfield Avenue to approximately Edgmere Avenue entailed a 2" mill and a 2" Rubberized Hot Mix Asphalt Type G (RHMA-G) overlay with some full depth structural sections where the street is severely deteriorated. The second segment of roadway from Edgmere Avenue to the 1-5 Overpass required a 6" mill and placement of 2.5" of RHMA-G over 4" Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) in the street with a 2" to 2½" transitional grind at the bike lanes. This project also corrected ADA deficiencies for sidewalks and ramps. Our design team checked for existing roadway signs and striping for compliance with both the City standards as well as the 3R federal design requirements. Another important aspect of this project was its proximity to Caltrans right-of-way. Traffic control through the 1-5 bridge overcrossing required obtaining a Caltrans Encroachment Permit.

QtMajdi Ataya Justin Smeets Ryan Dennis Dayton Lowe Alex Liu Amy Flores Kim Murillo Riley Moore OE is providing Design Engineering services to the City of Long Beach involving Citywide ADA Curb Ramps and Path of Travel Pedestrian Accessibility Improvements. The objective of the project is to design and construct at least 20,000 new ADA compliant curb ramps over the next 20 years in accordance with current State and Federal accessibility codes and standards. The project is to complete 1,000 of those ramps deemed most critical for accessibility. OE's team utilizes AutoCAD Civil 3D on 3D surfaces for the designs in compliance with the Long Beach Standard Plan No. 122 in order to satisfy the maximum allowable slopes dictated in the most current version of Caltrans Standard Plan A88A, and has had to consider other accessibility standards due to occasional unavailability of a suitable ramp case and type. The project work entails the preparation of detailed individual curb ramp construction plans with the inclusion of horizontal geometrics, design elevations and dimensions, and utility appurtenance adjustments and relocations, along with concrete infrastructure such as curb, gutter. cross-gutters, and sidewalk. The necessary reconstruction is incorporated in order to accommodate the new curb ramps, meet accessibility requirements, and maintain drainage. Additional design elements have also required consideration, which involve constructing 32"x54" size flat landings next to each pedestrian push-button at signalized intersections and installing guardrails where retaining curbs adjoin walkable hard surfaces. Due to the large volume of ramps reconstructed each year. small batches of design details and construction of the ramps are being provided to the City at regular intervals through out a continuous process, with City submittals made on a monthly basis at a scaled frequency and quality.

PROJECT CONTROLS
OE utilizes a set of technology-based tools to manage costs, scheduling and documentation.

These tools are capable of advancing the progress of our projects by delivering real-time project related updates and reports. providing 24/7 access of the project files to City team members, and allowing our team to keep the project on track. In addition, these tools serve to provide a dynamic repository of data, which we can use to seamlessly store, access, share and disseminate important project details. As a result, the City benefits from great increases in project transparency, collaboration, clarity and communication. OE can provide all necessary resources (ie. computers, work spaces. required materials, etc.).

COST CONTROL
One of our core corporate philosophies is honesty and transparency. We use Advanced Financial Software to prepare Invoices and Reports, which allows the City to request Billing Statements at any time in the billing cycle. We can also send a real-time hourly & expense report to compare resources used and/or remaining.

DOCUMENT CONTROL
OE operates and processes on a HIPA A Certified, enterprise grade, cloud filing system that will be used on all documents and folders to ensure proper documentation and transparency.

We map all of the City's standards, folder structure, templates and document formats and store it on our cloud-based � ENTERPRISE account for implementation. This cloudbased account allows for secure, remote access and review of our entire filing system by City staff, to ensure that documentation and filing is done in compliance with the project requirements. Each City staff member attached to the project will be able to select a password which provides access to view. upload. or download any of the project files ( DC Rs, correspondence, submittals, CCOs, progress payments, Lab and Field Test Reports, Materials Delivery Tickets and Compliance Certification, Progress Reports, Progress Photos, Meeting Minutes, etc.) without having to change the City's existing IT framework. This document control system is also compliant with Caltrans' LAPM filing requirements. Additionally, this flexibility allows the City staff access to the project files anywhere and on any device, as well as provide access to select files (like photos) to other collaborators.

SCHEDULE CONTROL
The OE team values time, for both our clients and our team members. To keep projects efficient, on track, and to maintain transparency, our investment in scheduling tools include Microsoft Project and Microsoft Primavera, along with course participation by our in-house staff. Every time we submit a proposal, we prepare a Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule which corresponds to our Resource Allocation Chart and fee proposal. CPM scheduling is highly useful as it allows OE to digitally input, analyze, modify, and share project scheduling.

When preparing the Schedules, OE consider resources, tasks, relationships and durations.

OE makes use of this information to maximize efficiency. When awarded a contract, our team updates the schedule with the Notice to Proceed date. This is then imported into our proprietary solution "Onward Collab" which the City will then have full access to. From there, OE can seamlessly document and assign tasks and subtasks. The result is that the details and the progress of the project would be available at all times to be tracked by the City and by our QA/QC team in real-time. Project Managers can then assess the workload of every team member at any given time, so that immediate adjustments can be made to the project. For example, if additional resources are needed to meet a milestone, the City would have immediate access to all change details.

PUBLIC OUTREACH

TELEPHONE HOTLINE
OE establishes project hotlines to provide businesses. residents. and City staff 24/7 access to project personnel. The City will be provided with a hotline for this project that can function as the contact number for the duration of the project life cycle. All calls are tracked, so a call log can easily be generated and saved, with caller information, time of call, and voice-mail.

INFORMATIVE WEBPAGE
OE offers informative web pages, hosted on a separate sub-domain linked directly to the City's website. This allows OE to directly produce and update all public notices (PDFs), project information and updates, and dynamic maps without requiring City time and resources through the process. The website also includes public notices which we will prepare for the Contractor on behalf of the City. These notices are a great way for residents to be made aware of the project, to read the notices, and to follow driving or parking restrictions. ''""*

Report Submitted By: Fire Chief Chad Van Meeteren Date of Report: April 13, 2023 Department of Fire-Rescue
City of Santa Fe Springs

CONSENT AGENDA
Acceptance of 2020 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) Funds for the Purchase of Two (2) Drager X-am 8000 Multi-Gas Monitors, Ancillary Equipment, and Extended Warranty

BACKGROUND
The 2020 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) has a performance period of three years and closes for spending in May of 2023. The 2020 grant has awarded funds for the purchase of two (2) Drager X-am 8000 Multi-Gas Monitors, ancillary equipment and extended warranty for the Department of Fire-Rescue, specifically for their State “Type-1” Hazardous Material Team. The monitor will be utilized for both response capabilities as well as training at the Regional Training Center for Hazardous Materials Specialist training.

The X-am 8000 Multi-Gas monitor is utilized to analyze and measure specific gasses that are programmed into the monitor. Hazardous materials monitoring is conducted on all responses and beyond chemicals, biological hazards and other releases, the atmosphere the responders are working in must be evaluated for safety. The device can be handheld or set out where an area needs to be monitored, and results (including alarms) are transmitted via blue-tooth technology. The unit can measure up to 7 different toxic gasses simultaneously, has intuitive charging, is rugged but also has technology to notify if it has been subject to mechanical falls. The units come with extended service and 3-year warranty, five (5) years of Smart LINC view and cloud service, specialized particulate monitoring capability, charging dock and carrying cradles, isobutylene sensors, and other ancillary equipment. Training for Santa Fe Springs Fire Rescue personnel are included in the total purchase price.

The State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSP) awarded the funds to the Department of Fire Rescue in order for the Department to maintain their Hazardous Materials Type-1 status with the State. The Drager X-am 8000 monitor meets all State requirements for a Type-1 Hazardous Materials Team.

Below is a summary of the bids received for the Drager X-am 8000 Multi-Gas Monitors, Ancillary Equipment and Extended Warranty:

RECOMMENDATION(S)
 Accept 2020 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) funds in the amount of $54,216.14 and authorize the purchase of two (2) Drager X-am 8000 Multi-Gas Monitors, Ancillary Equipment and Extended Warranty from Safe Environment Engineering.

CONSENT AGENDA
Resolution No. 9858 – Approving a First Amendment (Amendment) to the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP

BACKGROUND
The Housing Successor is the owner* of four parcels of land located at the northeast and northwest corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road, in the City of Santa Fe Springs. The largest of the parcels (APN: 8011-012-902), at the northwest corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road, consist of ±3.94-acres and has an address of 13241 Lakeland Road. The adjacent three (3) parcels, (APN: 8011-011-906, 8011-011 -907, 8011-011-912), have a combined area of ±36,342 sq. ft., and are located at the northeast corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road. All four parcels are unimproved land with perimeter fencing.
*Note: A portion of the ±3.94-acre parcel has since been sold to The Whole Child.

It was always the intent of the City and Agency to develop all four parcels with affordable housing. To accomplish this, all four parcels were rezoned to R-3-PD, Multiple Family Residential-Planned Development in 2013.

The Agency subsequently entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement on March 28, 2109 with a team of three entities: The Whole Child, the Richman Group of California Development Company, LLC., and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles to develop transitional housing and support services, an affordable rental apartment building, and affordable for sale owner-occupied single-family homes, respectively in that order.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
 Approve Resolution No. 9858, approving a First Amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP; and  Find that the proposed action(s) is not a project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because they are an activity that is excluded from the definition of a project by Section 15378 (b)(5) of the State CEQA guidelines. The proposed actions are administrative activities of government which will not result in direct or indirect physical change to the environment; and  Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the First Amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP, to recognize the assignment of the Purchase and Sales Agreement to Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP and to revise Exhibit B of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, in substantially the form of the attached Exhibit A, incorporated herein by this reference.

At the Housing Successor meeting of March 2, 2021, the Agency approved Resolution No. HS-2021-001, approve a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the Richman Group of California Development Company, LLC, to purchase a portion of the ±3.94-acre property. The Richman Group would develop the property with 102 units of housing of which 101 units would be affordable rental housing with a focus on providing a preference in rental to veterans. One of the exhibits within the Purchase and Sale Agreement was Exhibit B, labeled Rental Housing Project Description.

The proposed First Amendment to the Purchase and Sales Agreement would recognize the assignment of the Purchase and Sales Agreement to Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP and revise Exhibit B of the Purchase and Sales Agreement, in substantially the form of the new attached Exhibit B, incorporated herein by this reference. It was necessary to revise Exhibit B because other funding sources were pursued to fund the project. Per the requirements of those funding sources, the AMI mix had to be updated.

SCOPE OF DEVELOPMENT

RENTAL HOUSING PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project consists of approximately 102 units of rental housing, with 101 affordable units and one unit reserved for an on-site manager. The project qualifies as a large family affordable housing project with proposed senior and special needs components. The proposed units range from 569 to 1,136 square feet in size, and the project is comprised of the following unit mix:

The proposed unit mix specifies that 30 of the 102 units will be designated as LMIHAFassisted units. The proposed affordability targets for the LMIHAF-assisted rental units are as follows:

Affordability Targeting
Income Target Bedrooms Number of Units %
30% AMI – LMIHAF 1 Bedroom 18 17.6
30% AMI – LMIHAF 2 Bedroom 6 5.88
30% AMI – LMIHAF 3 Bedroom 6 5.88

CONSENT AGENDA
Resolution No. 9859 – Approving an Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and a Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants with the Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP

BACKGROUND
The Housing Successor is the owner* of four parcels of land located at the northeast and northwest corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road, in the City of Santa Fe Springs. The largest of the parcels (APN: 8011-012-902), at the northwest corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road, consist of ±3.94-acres and has an address of 13241 Lakeland Road. The adjacent three (3) parcels, (APN: 8011-011-906, 8011-011 -907, 8011-011-912), have a combined area of ±36,342 sq. ft., and are located at the northeast corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road. All four parcels are unimproved land with perimeter fencing.
*Note: A portion of the ±3.94-acre parcel has since been sold to The Whole Child.

It was always the intent of the City and Agency to develop all four parcels with affordable housing. To accomplish this, all four parcels were rezoned to R-3-PD, Multiple Family Residential-Planned Development in 2013.

The Agency subsequently entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement on March 28, 2019 with a team of three entities: The Whole Child (TWC), the Richman Group of California Development Company, LLC., and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles to develop transitional housing and support services, an affordable rental apartment building, and affordable for sale owner-occupied single-family homes, respectively in that order.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
 Approve Resolution No. 9859, approving an Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and a Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants with The Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP; and  Find that the proposed actions are not a project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because they are an activity that is excluded from the definition of a project by Section 15378 (b)(5) of the State CEQA guidelines. The proposed actions are administrative activities of government which will not result in direct or indirect physical change to the environment; and  Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement, and a Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants and all necessary and related documents, with The Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments, LP.

The City’s General Plan Housing Element specifically identifies the development of affordable housing on the sites, and the potential project is described as a program in the Housing Element as follows starting on page 5-14 of the 2014-2021 Housing Element:

8. Affordable Housing Development Assistance
The City can play an important role in facilitating the development of quality, affordable housing through provision of land write-downs and regulatory incentives, and as available, financial assistance. Santa Fe Springs' Housing Successor Agency owns two housing sites (Lakeland/Laurel and 10934 Laurel) originally purchased with Low/Mod Housing Funds and recently rezoned R-3- PD with minimum 20 unit/acre densities. Designating these sites with a Planned Development (PD) Overlay eliminates any upper density limit and allows flexible development standards, providing an effective regulatory mechanism to facilitate affordable housing development.
2014-2021 Objective: Enter into a development agreement(s) for development of the 3.9-acre Lakeland/Laurel site and .75 acre site at 10934Laurel with affordable housing, with particular emphasis on family housing. Provide a land write-down and flexible development standards to enhance affordability, and waive Planning Department application fees for projects with a minimum 10% extremely low-income units. Seek to achieve a minimum of 100 affordable units on these two sites.

The Housing Successor Agency approved purchase, sale and development agreements with Richman Group and TWC Housing for the ±3.94-acre parcel at the northwest corner of Lakeland Road and Laurel Avenue. As part of those agreements, the Agency planned to commit affordable housing funds held by the Agency to assist in financing the projects. The Richman Group plans to construct an affordable 101 unit apartment complex, and TWC Housing LLC (“TWC”) intends to construct and operate an interim transitional housing and services facility with 19 apartments.

The Richman Group plans to construct an affordable 101 unit apartment complex, and TWC Housing LLC (“TWC”) intends to construct and operate an interim transitional housing and services facility with 19 apartments. Richman Group will be using a combination of grant funds, tax credit investor funding, bank funding, and a residual receipts loan from the Agency. The funds for the affordable housing loan and grants are from the City/Agency restricted Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund, which use is limited to assisting housing projects. The loan commitment letter for the Richman Group is for $6,000,000, payable from residual receipts (available net cash after project expenses) and at 3% simple interest over the 55 year life of the loan. The future loan will be evidenced by a note, which shall be secured by a deed of trust on the property. There will also be a recorded declaration of affordability restrictions which Resolution No. 9859-Affordable Housing Loan Agreement-Etc Page 3 of 4 Report Submitted By: W. Morrell, Director of Planning Date of Report: March 22, 2020 R. Hildebrand, Deputy Attorney
will restrict the property to various low income (as defined by state housing law) and lower affordable rents as set forth in the loan agreement. The grant funding agreement requires a recorded declaration of affordability restrictions as well.

Affordable housing projects, especially those serving the needs of very low and extremely low income require significant financial assistance to be successfully constructed and operated. For that reason, the Agency is contributing the land to the project to achieve the Agency and City’s affordable housing goals and obligations. The Affordable Housing Grant Funding Agreement is the Agency commitment to provide a portion of the project financing.

The subject resolution (Resolution No. 9859), directs the City Manager to execute an Affordable Housing Loan Agreement in the amount of Six Million Dollars to partially fund the construction of 102 affordable apartments by The Richman Santa Fe Springs Apartments LP. It also directs the City Manager to execute the Affordable Housing Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants to ensure very low income housing is maintained for a minimum of 55 years on the property located at the northwest corner of Lakeland Road and Laurel Avenue, a portion of APN 8011-012- 902.

In summary, affordable housing projects, especially those serving the needs of very low and extremely low income require significant financial assistance to be successfully constructed and operated. The City can play an important role in facilitating the development of quality, affordable housing through provision of land write-downs and regulatory incentives, and as available, financial assistance.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION
The proposed actions are not projects pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because they are an activity that is excluded from the definition of a project by Section 15378 (b)(5) of the State CEQA guidelines. The proposed actions are administrative activities of government which will not result in direct or indirect physical change to the environment.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City’s Legal Counsel has reviewed the Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and the Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants.

FISCAL IMPACT
There are no fiscal impacts to the General Fund since the source of the loan agreement will be from the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund (LMIHF), which use is limited to assisting housing projects.

6.3.4. Loss of Project Based Voucher Subsidy
It is anticipated that during the term of this Agreement the Project will maintain Project Based Voucher (“PBV”) Restricted Units, supported by Project-Based Section 8 rental subsidy payments (the "Rental Subsidy").

The Proposed units range from 569 to 1,136 square feet in size, and is comprised of the following unit mix:

The proposed unit mix specifies that 30 of the 102 units will be designated as LMIHAFassisted units. The proposed affordability targets for the LMIHAF-assisted rental units are as follows:

Affordability Targeting
Income Target Bedrooms Number of Units %
30% AMI – LMIHAF 1 Bedroom 18 17.6
30% AMI – LMIHAF 2 Bedroom 6 5.88
30% AMI – LMIHAF 3 Bedroom 6 5.88
Total 30 29.36
The initial funding strategy specifies that 30 units (29.4% of the total units) will be reserved for permanent supportive housing, which are represented in the above table as the 30% AMI – LMIHAF units. The inclusion of these units is dependent on available financing.

The rental units are to be constructed in multiple wood frame three-story structures and will also include a community building which houses the leasing office, a multi-purpose room, service provider space, computer center, fitness room and other amenities. 150 on-site parking stalls are to be provided, and access points to the community will be secured.

Compliance by the Owner with the management plan provided under any Other Regulatory Declaration shall be deemed to be compliance with the requirements of this Section 5.4.

City of Santa Fe Springs
City Council April 18, 2023
Report Submitted By: W. Morrell, Director of Planning Date of Report: March 26, 2020 R. Hildebrand, Deputy Attorney

CONSENT AGENDA
Resolution No. 9860 – Approving a First Amendment (Amendment) to the Purchase, Sale and Development Agreement with Habitat For Humanity of Greater Los Angeles

BACKGROUND
The Housing Successor is the owner* of four parcels of land located at the northeast and northwest corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road, in the City of Santa Fe Springs. The largest of the parcels (APN: 8011-012-902), at the northwest corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road, consist of ±3.94-acres and has an address of 13241 Lakeland Road. The adjacent three (3) parcels, (APN: 8011-011-906, 8011-011 -907, 8011-011-912), have a combined area of ±36,342 sq. ft., and are located at the northeast corner of Laurel Avenue and Lakeland Road. All four parcels are unimproved land with perimeter fencing.
*Note: A portion of the ±3.94-acre parcel has since been sold to The Whole Child.

It was always the intent of the City and Agency to develop all four parcels with affordable housing. To accomplish this, all four parcels were rezoned to R-3-PD, Multiple Family Residential-Planned Development in 2013.

The Agency subsequently entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement on March 28, 2109 with a team of three entities: The Whole Child, the Richman Group of California Development Company, LLC., and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles to develop transitional housing and support services, an affordable rental apartment building, and affordable for sale owner-occupied single-family homes, respectively in that order.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
 Approve Resolution No. 9860, approving a First Amendment to the Purchase, Sales and Development Agreement with Habitat For Humanity of Greater Los Angeles; and
 Find that the proposed actions is not a project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because they are an activity that is excluded from the definition of a project by Section 15378 (b)(5) of the State CEQA guidelines. The proposed actions are administrative activities of government which will not result in direct or indirect physical change to the environment; and  Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the First Amendment to Purchase, Sale and Development Agreement with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles, to revise subsection 7(c)(iv) of the Purchase and Sales Agreement, in substantially the form of the attached Exhibit A, incorporated herein by this reference.

ITEM NO. 10I
First Amendment to Purchase, Sales and Development Agreement Page 2 of 3 Report Submitted By: W. Morrell, Director of Planning Date of Report: March 22, 2020 R. Hildebrand, Deputy Attorney
At the Housing Successor meeting of October 5, 2021, The Agency approved Resolutions No’s. HS-2021-003, HS-2021-004, HS-2021-005.  Resolution No. HS-2021-003: Approving an Affordable Housing Loan Commitment to Richman Group of California Development Company
 Resolution No. HS-2021-004: Approving an Affordable Housing Grant Funding Agreement with TWC Housing LLC
 Resolution No. HS-2021-005: Approving a Purchase, Sale and Development Agreement with Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles Habitat For Humanity recently submitted a letter requesting that certain sections, specifically, sections 7 (c)(ii), 7 (c)(iii), and 7 (c)(iv) be removed from the Purchase, Sales and Development agreement. According to Habitat For Humanity, the requirements of these sections would cause a delay in the project and could cause the project to not move forward. Many portions of the entitlement process of a project requires Habitat LA to own the property. Currently, the conditions set forth in sections 7 (c)(ii), 7 (c)(iii), and 7 (c)(iv) of the Agreement would need to be completed prior to Habitat LA’s acquisition of the property. However, Habitat LA cannot complete the sections without owning the property. Also, Habitat LA will not be able to close the financing of the project, including the financing of the entitlement process, without owning the property.

Staff and legal counsel have reviewed the request and are in agreement that only section 7(c)(iv) should be removed. Sections 7 (c)(ii) and 7 (c)(iii) would not delay Habit’s acquisition of the property, but definitively Section 7 (c)(iv) would, since said section requires plan check submittal and approval and readiness for the issuance of building permits for construction, prior to closing.

Excerpt From Existing Purchase, Sales and Development Agreement

Dear Mr. Morrell,
Please find this letter as Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles’ (Habitat LA) official request to amend the Purchase, Sale and Development Agreement (Agreement) between the City and Habitat LA for 10940 Laurel Avenue and 13311 Lakeland Road. Specifically, Habitat LA requests the City remove sections 7 (c)(ii), 7 (c)(iii), and 7 (c)(iv) from the Agreement. The requirements of these sections would cause a delay in the project and could cause the project to not move forward. Many portions of the entitlement process of a project requires Habitat LA to own the property. Currently, the conditions set forth in sections 7 (c)(ii), 7 (c)(iii), and 7 (c)(iv) of the Agreement would need to be completed prior to Habitat LA’s acquisition of the property. However, Habitat LA can not complete these sections without owning the property. Also, Habitat LA will not be able to close the financing of the project, including the financing of the entitlement process, without owning the property.

In the spirit of moving the project forward and delivering 18-new affordable homes to the City, we request that the Agreement be amended to allow Habitat LA to acquire the property with the conditions set forth in sections 7 (c)(ii), 7 (c)(iii), and 7 (c)(iv).

We appreciate your consideration of this request and looking forward to our continued work in the City.

City Council Meeting April 18, 2023
Report Submitted By: Travis Hickey and Debbie Ford Date of Report: April 13, 2023 Finance and Administrative Services
City of Santa Fe Springs

CONSENT AGENDA
Approval of Personnel Modifications

BACKGROUND
Classification Specification Changes
Staff is requesting that the City Council approve updates to the current existing classification specifications for the Librarian I and Lead Public Safety Officer. The changes are most notably to education and experience requirements. These changes will allow for better promotional opportunities.

Experience Revisions:

Librarian I: Master’s degree in Library Science (MLS), Library and Information Science or related field from an American Library Association (ALA) accredited institution at time of appointment or within six (6) months instead of 90 days of appointment.

Currently the Library has several hourly staff members working towards their MLS.

Lead PSO: From four (4) years of experience to two (2) years of experience in increasingly responsible municipal public safety or law enforcement.

A review of the minimum requirements of these positions was performed by Department staff. The classification specifications have also been given an appropriate review by the Santa Fe Springs Employee’s Association (SFSEA). There is no budgetary impact, as this is simply a change to the classification specification.

Position Reclassifications
Due to the complexity of work in the Public Works/Engineering Division, staff is requesting to reclassify the position of Assistant Civil Engineer to Associate Civil Engineer. The Associate Engineer is a more experienced engineer that can provide a higher level of technical skills.

The City recently completed a recruitment for the vacant Associate Civil Engineer.

There is an active eligibility list for this position. If approved, the City can move quickly to interview candidates on the eligibility list without the need to start a new recruitment.

RECOMMENDATION:
 Approve the classification specification changes for Librarian I and Lead Public Safety Officer.
 Approve the reclassification/upgrade from Assistant Civil Engineer to Associate Civil Engineer.

ITEM NO. 10J

FISCAL IMPACT
The additional annual salary and benefits range from $21,150 (Step A) to $26,900 (Step E) for the Associate Civil Engineer over the Assistant Civil Engineer. However, adequate appropriations exist for these positions in the FY 2023-2024 adopted budget due to current vacancies.

PRESENTATION
Proclaiming April 28, 2023, as “National Arbor Day”

BACKGROUND
On April 10, 1872, J. Sterling Morton proposed to the Nebraska Board of Agriculture to designate a special day for planting trees, which would later be known as Arbor Day.

Trees play an integral part in the urban landscape by providing aesthetic and environmental benefits to neighborhoods. The City of Santa Fe Springs places great value on maintaining and preserving more than 7,000 trees comprising the City’s urban forest. The Arbor Day Foundation has recognized this investment and bestowed upon the City the national designation award of Tree City USA for the 37th consecutive year.

The Arbor Day Foundation is a non-profit, environmental, and educational organization of nearly one million members, with a mission to inspire people to plant, nurture and celebrate the benefits of trees. The Arbor Day Foundation, in cooperation with the National Association of State Foresters and the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service, sponsors the Tree City USA program.

The Mayor may wish to call upon Kevin Periman, Municipal Services Manager to receive the proclamation.

City Council Meeting April 18, 2023
Report Submitted By: Janet Martinez, City Clerk Date of Report: April 13, 2023 City of Santa Fe Springs

PRESENTATION
Proclaiming the Month of April 2023 as “Sexual Assault Awareness Month” and April 26, 2023 as “Denim Day” in Santa Fe Springs

BACKGROUND
Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM), observed each April, is a campaign that aims to increase awareness about the causes and risk factors for sexual assault and empower individuals to take steps to prevent it in their communities. Since 2001, the National Sexual Violence Research Center has coordinated annual programming, developing materials and resources for organizations and agencies to use. “Sexual Assault Awareness Month” and Peace Over Violence has declared Wednesday, April 26, 2023 as “Denim Day” in Los Angeles County and nationwide.

All municipalities in Los Angeles County and nationwide are invited to be a part of Denim Day, a sexual assault prevention and education campaign in support of raising awareness about the need to end sexual violence. Millions of supporters around the country and globally are expected to participate.

Organized annually, “Denim Day” recalls an Italian Supreme Court case that sparked international outrage when judges did not convict a rapist because the victim wore jeans. The judges ruled that because the victim was wearing jeans, she must have helped her attacker remove them, thus implying consent. People are encouraged to wear jeans to support survivors of sexual assault and raise awareness around sexual violence issues and communicate the message that there is “no excuse and never an invitation to rape.”
Santa Fe Springs is proud to participate in this effort to promote awareness by wearing denim on Wednesday, April 26. The Santa Fe Springs City Council encourages all City employees to make a social statement and wear denim jeans this day in support of such a worthwhile cause.

RECOMMENDATION(S)
 The Mayor may wish to call upon the City Clerk to read the proclamation.

ITEM NO. 12D
Sexual Assault Awareness Month Proclamation
Whereas, Sexual Assault Awareness Month is intended to draw attention to the fact that sexual violence is widespread and has public health implications for members of the community; and
Whereas, rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment impact our community as seen by statistics indicating that one in five women and one in seventy-one men will have experienced sexual assault in their lifetime; and
Whereas, we must work together to educate our community about what can be done to prevent sexual assault and how to support survivors; and Whereas, with leadership, dedication, and encouragement, there is compelling evidence that we can be successful in reducing sexual through prevention education, increased awareness, and holding perpetrators who commit acts of violence responsible for their actions; and
Whereas, the City of Santa Fe Springs strongly supports the efforts of national, state, and local partners, and of every citizen to actively engage in public and private efforts, including conversations about what sexual violence is, how to prevent it, how to help survivors connect with services, and how every segment of our society can work together to better address sexual violence.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Santa Fe Springs does hereby proclaim the month of April, 2023 as “Sexual Assault Awareness Month”
In the City of Santa Fe Springs and promotes joining anti-sexual violence advocates in the belief that all community members must be part of the solution to end sexual violence.

Dated this 18th day of April, 2023.
