CONSENT AGENDA
Amendment Number 1 to Agreement with Merchants Landscape Services, Inc. to Exercise One-Year Extension

BACKGROUND
The City Council awarded a contract to Merchants Landscape Service, Inc. (Merchants) on July 9, 2020, to provide landscape maintenance services city-wide.

The contract is for a three-year term with two one-year renewal options, for a total of up to five years. City staff has evaluated Merchants performance during the initial three-year term of the five-year contract, and recommends exercising the option for a one-year extension.

For the first of two one-year option renewals, Merchants requests a 3% increase due to an increase in labor costs, materials, and supplies. Staff recommends accepting Merchants' request for a 3% increase.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney’s office has prepared Amendment No. 1 to the agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Public Works Operations and Maintenance annual budget includes the cost of the landscape services contract, currently at $899,792.16. The additional 3% increase is $26,859.84 and brings the total to $926,652.00. The Fiscal Year 2023/24 Budget will reflect this increase.

INFRASTRUCTURE IMPACT
The maintenance of the City’s landscape and hardscape is vital to the residents’ and businesses’ safety, welfare, and overall quality of life. This service is also necessary to protect the City’s assets, which include medians, parkways, and facilities.

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.

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 non renewal 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 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.

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 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.

CONSENT AGENDA
Rosecrans/Marquardt Avenues Grade Separation Project - Cooperative and Funding Agreement Amendment No. 1

BACKGROUND
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) has taken the lead on a project to grade separate Rosecrans Avenue, Marquardt Avenue, and the Burlington North Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway in the City of Santa Fe Springs. At the December 10, 2016 meeting, the City Council endorsed the design alternative to construct an Offset Overpass that realigns Rosecrans Avenue to the south over the Burlington North Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad tracks in the City of Santa Fe Springs.

Pursuant to the project’s funding requirements, Staff nominated the Rosecrans/Marquardt Avenues Grade Separation Project (“Project”) for the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Section 190 Grade Separation Program Priority List. The CPUC subsequently ranked the Project as the Number 1 priority grade separation project in the state of California for Fiscal Years 2016-17 and 2017-18.

At the March 22, 2018 meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9571 authorizing filing an application to Caltrans for allocation of $15 million of Section 190 Grade Separation Funds for the Project. Metro’s current project cost estimate for the Project is $155 million.

The Section 190 funds will be contributed to the project through a Cooperative and Funding Agreement (Agreement) with Metro. The City will not pay in advance for project costs with City funds. Metro will pay for project costs and request reimbursement from Caltrans through the City’s requisition and reimbursement process.

The Agreement identifies the roles and responsibilities of Metro and the City in the design of the project, including review and approval of the Plans and Specifications for the project. The City will assist Metro by providing engineering, technical, analytical and administrative support services with respect to building and safety, landscaping, street lighting, transportation, civil engineering, public works, inspection, fire/life safety, police protection and other areas deemed necessary by the City and Metro to successfully implement the construction of the project.

Los Nietos Park Playground Improvements Project – Final Payment

BACKGROUND
In 1992 and 1996, LA County voters approved an annual assessment on parcels of real property within the County (Prop A) for the purpose of development, acquisition, improvement, restoration, and maintenance of parks, recreational, cultural and community facilities, and open space lands within the County. This proposition established the LA County Regional Park and Open Space District (RPOSD) to work with park agencies, community organizations and the general public to gain insight and recommend effective implementation of Prop A. As Prop A came to an end, LA County started a Countywide Parks and Recreation Needs Assessment (PNA) to determine park needs countywide. Measure A was approved in 2016 to fund the areas in need from the PNA through an annual tax allocation or grant.

Measure A funds were used to improve the Los Nietos Park playground, as the community expressed the need for new playground equipment. The project consisted of the removal of all existing playground equipment, wood chips, and the expansion of the playground footprint to accommodate 2-5 Year and 5-12 Year Old equipment zones. The construction of new sidewalk/curbs around the north end of the playground, relocation of a light pole, installation of artificial turf as walking surface, removal/replacement of benches/trash receptacles and the restoration of impacted landscaping was also part of the scope of work.

The original scope of work included furnishing and the installation of new trees in the event the playground expansion compromised the existing trees. However, Staff is happy to report that all of the existing trees were protected, and the invoice reflects that cost savings.

FISCAL IMPACT
The construction cost ($410,441.61) of the project will be covered by funding allocations that have been accrued through Measure A. The project costs are as follows:

ITEM AMOUNT
Construction $ 410,441.61
Engineering $ 10,000.00
Inspection $ 15,000.00
Contingency $ 36,700.00
Total Project Cost: $ 472,141.61

RECOMMENDATION
• Approve the Final Payment to Miracle Recreation of Dallas Texas for the full amount of $410,441.61 for the subject project; and
• Authorize the Interim Director of Public Works to approve the Miracle Recreation invoice No. 849573 for Purchase Order No. 2220110 as the Final Payment for this playground improvement project (PW220103).

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. If Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums required above, the City shall be entitled to coverage at the higher limits maintained by Consultant.

Notice of cancellation. Consultant 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 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 Consultant’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. Consultant agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the Services who is brought onto or involved in the Services by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Consultant. Consultant 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. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subconsultants, 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 Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to Consultant, City and Consultant may renegotiate Consultant’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. Consultant shall give the City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Consultant’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

Additional insurance. Consultant 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.

CONSENT AGENDA
Authorize the Purchase of One (1) 2023 Electric Ford Transit Van from A-Z Bus Sales and Appropriate $106,900 from AQMD Funds to Fund this Purchase

BACKGROUND
As California moves to zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) sales requirements, we have an opportunity to enter into Southern California Edison’s (Edison) Charge Ready Program for vehicles over 6,000 pounds and commence the process of electrifying our fleet. For the opportunity to enter the Charge Ready Program we need to document we are purchasing ZEV’s. Approval of this agenda item and its associated purchase order would provide the necessary documentation to begin the application process.

The Edison Charge Ready program offers low or no-cost infrastructure installation and rebates. Once accepted into the program, Edison will conduct a site assessment at the Municipal Services Yard and determine the necessary requirements to run the infrastructure for power. The City would be responsible for the purchase and installation of the associated charging stations which also qualify for AQMD funding.

This ZEV will be assigned to the Public Works Transportation division, and as a ZEV it qualifies for AQMD funds.

The Director of Purchasing Services recommends awarding this order to A-Z Bus Sales based on the lowest received bid.

Vendor Quoted Price_____
A-Z Bus Sales $106,806.65
Sunset Vans $125,690.39

• Appropriate $106,900 from AQMD funds to fully fund this purchase; and • Authorize the Director of Purchasing Services to process a Purchase Order in the amount of $106,900 to A-Z Bus Sales.

CONSENT AGENDA
City Hall LED Lighting Retrofit Project

BACKGROUND
City staff, in cooperation with SoCalRen, met in March 2022 to discuss high energy usage areas, and the potential of energy efficient projects. In September 2022, SoCalRen presented a Comparative Energy Analysis (CEA) report for City Facilities.

After reviewing the CEA report, Staff determined that replacing the existing lighting at City Hall would have the most energy savings impact.

On November 9, 2022, the City, with the assistance from SoCalRen, submitted an application for the City Hall LED Lighting Retrofit project to SCE for approval under its Streamlined Savings Pathway Program. On January 23, 2023, the City received project approval confirmation. However, the lighting must be installed and operational within 12 months from the date of approval.

Upon project completion, the City will be eligible to receive a one-time incentive check of approximately $10,745.78; and approximately $8,827.50 each year after in estimated energy savings. Additionally, the City will meet the program requirements to qualify for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations through the Public Power Up Program in the City Hall Parking Lot area. The LED Lighting Retrofit City Hall Project is a prerequisite to qualify for the Public Power Up Program.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total estimated cost to purchase and install new LED retrofit kits in City Hall is $60,000.00. This is a one-time expense.

INFRASTRUCTURE IMPACT
The City Hall LED Lighting Retrofit project will provide brighter lighting, more efficient, and cost effective, and will qualify the City for installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in the City Hall parking lot area.

CONSENT AGENDA
Quarterly Treasurer’s Report of Investments for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2023

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, and $35.0 million in January 2023 bringing the total principal invested to $65.8 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 March 31, 2023 was also emailed to each Councilmember on April 26, 2023.

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. While this update is typically made to City staff, PFMAM also provided an update the City Council Audit Sub-committee on April 19, 2023. The City Council Audit Sub-committee current members are Mayor Pro Tem Sarno and Councilmember Rounds.

CITY INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
The City’s managed portfolio generated interest income in the amount of $503,226 for the most recent quarter. The interest income represents actual cash receipts received by the City, plus the amortization of any discounts or premiums, as well as realized gains and losses. The figure does not include unrealized gains or losses (i.e. changes in market value).

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 March 31, 2023 was 3.07%, increase from 1.88% the previous quarter.

RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the report.

ITEM NO. 8J
City Council Meeting May 2, 2023
Report Submitted By: Travis Hickey, City Treasurer
Lana Dich, Asst. City Treasurer Date of Report: April 27, 2023 City of Santa Fe Springs
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 rose to 3.07% as of March 31, 2023.

This has resulted in unrealized losses, however, it is important to point out that the investments continue to pay the stated interest on the security. The unrealized losses simply represent the amount that the City would lose, if the security was sold in the current market conditions. It is not an actual loss 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 March 31, 2023 was 1.64% vs. the benchmark’s total return of 1.82%; the City’s portfolio underperformed by 0.18%. Since inception of the managed portfolio (January 2016) the total return for the City’s portfolio was 1.05% vs. the benchmark total return of 0.75% through March 31, 2023.

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; the California Asset Management Program (“CAMP”), a pooled investment fund managed by PFMAM; 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 2.74% for the quarter while CAMP returned 4.92% and the MMF returned 4.25%. Interest earnings for the City Council Meeting May 2, 2023
Report Submitted By: Travis Hickey, City Treasurer
Lana Dich, Asst. City Treasurer Date of Report: April 27, 2023 City of Santa Fe Springs
quarter amounted to $201,198.89, $491,883.66, and $53,955.31, respectively, for the LAIF, CAMP, and the MMF accounts.

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 $ 126.4 million
Successor Agency Bond Funds 18.2 million
Bonds Reserves and Debt Service 15.2 million
Total Investments $ 159.8 million
Pooled cash and investments consist of the PFMAM managed account, LAIF, and CAMP. The Successor Agency bond funds are held in LAIF and are the source of funds for ongoing capital improvement projects. 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 $ 68.0 million
LAIF 29.5 million
CAMP 47.1 million
MMF 15.2 million
Total Investments $159.8 million
PFMAM and Staff will continue to work with the City Council Audit Sub-committee to review any proposed changes to the portfolio make-up.

Current Market Themes
▸ The U.S. economy is characterized by:
▹ Lingering inflation that remains well above the Fed’s long-term inflation target ▹ A labor market showing the first signs of moderation
▹ Greater economic uncertainty following the surprise failure of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank
▸ Fed policy tightening may be nearly complete
▹ The most recent FOMC statement noted that “some additional policy firming may be appropriate,” but the need for more rate hikes has become less clear ▹ Although the Fed acknowledged the impact of the recent bank failures, their March updated Summary of Economic Projections were little changed from December ▹ The Fed has maintained that they will keep rates elevated for some time, but the market is pricing in rate cuts beginning mid-year
▸ Bond markets saw unprecedented volatility in March
▹ In a classic “flight to quality,” Treasury yields fell sharply, with the 2-year Treasury yield falling from 5.07% on March 8 to under 4.00% on March 17
▹ The curve inversion from 3 months to 10 years reached the deepest levels in over 40 years▹ Credit yield spreads widened, especially those on banks, but not nearly to levels seen during the global financial crisis

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. The accepting institution guarantees payment of the bill as well as the insurer.Commercial Paper: An unsecured obligation issued by a corporation or bank to finance its short-term credit needs, such as accounts receivable and inventory.Contribution to Total Return: The weight of each individual security multiplied by its return, then summed for each sector to determine how much each sector addedor subtracted from the overall portfolio performance.Effective Duration: A measure of the sensitivity of a security’s price to a change in interest rates, stated in years.Effective Yield: The total yield an investor receives in relation to the nominal yield or coupon of a bond. Effective yield takes into account the power of compoundingon investment returns, while nominal yield does not.FDIC: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. A federal agency that insures bank deposits to a specified amount.Interest Rate: Interest per year divided by principal amount and expressed as a percentage.Market Value: The value that would be received or paid for an investment in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.Maturity: The date upon which the principal or stated value of an investment becomes due and payable.Negotiable Certificates of Deposit: A CD with a very large denomination, usually $1 million or more, that can be traded in secondary markets.Par Value: The nominal dollar face amount of a security.Pass-through Security: A security representing pooled debt obligations that passes income from debtors to its shareholders.

CONSENT AGENDA
Authorize the Purchase of Microsoft Office Software Licenses

BACKGROUND
Microsoft Office 2013’s suite of applications (Access, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint and Word) is used extensively by every department in the City. The City values the stability and dependability of the Microsoft products. The official support for Microsoft Office 2013 ends in April 2023. This means the software will no longer be patched and updated to protect against malware and viruses. Technology Service’s staff will need to begin upgrading each workstation with the new software to meet the April 2023 deadline.

While the City purchased 145 licenses in January 2022, Technology Services is recommending that the City purchase an additional 105 total licenses from GovConnection, Inc. in the amount of $42,883.05 to bring the City’s total number of licenses to 250. The pricing is based on Government Select Level D pricing, which is the highest discount offered by Microsoft in that plan. GovConnection, Inc. has been a responsive, reliable hardware and software vendor that Technology Services has used in the past.

FISCAL IMPACT
The acquisition cost of the licenses has been budgeted and is included in the adopted Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget.

Planning City Council Meeting May 2, 2023
Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 27, 2023 Planning and Development Department

CONSENT AGENDA
Approval and Adoption of City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines

BACKGROUND
Historically, the primary metric used to measure local transportation impacts has been Level of Service (LOS). LOS is a grading system with six designations that range from grade “A” to a grade “F”, with LOS “A” representing the best conditions (free flowing) to “F” representing the worst conditions (congested), to score how well an intersection operates during morning and evening rush hour. LOS focuses on the potential impact on traffic congestion based on automobile delay and roadway capacity using traffic studies to determine whether a project will create additional delays on surrounding streets and intersections.

In 2013, Senate Bill 743 (SB 743 - Steinberg) was signed into law and changed the way transportation impacts are measured under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This is due to revamped thinking that the State cannot solve long commutes, traffic congestion, unsustainable land use patterns, and impacts to health, quality of life, and climate, by increasing roadway capacity (because expanded roads quickly fill up again due to pent- up demand) and lessening automobile delay/increasing vehicle speeds (because speeding up traffic flows would induce spreading development farther out, thus making accessibility to destinations more difficult and increasing vehicle miles and emissions).

SB 743 removed LOS as the primary measure of transportation impacts of environmental significance and required the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) to develop revisions to CEQA Guidelines establishing criteria for determining the significance of transportation impacts. OPR subsequently selected Vehicles Miles Travelled (VMT) as the preferred metric to comply with SB 743, as it is more aligned with the state’s goals of reducing GHG emission through promotion of infill development, active transportation and other sustainable land use and transportation projects. As a result, local jurisdictions must transition from using LOS to the VMT methodology when evaluating transportation related impacts of a project for CEQA purposes.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
• Find and determine that the project is Statutorily Exempt pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5) and 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); and
• Adopt Resolution No. 9861 to approve and adopt the City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines, based on the information and findings contained within the staff report.

ITEM NO. 8M
City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 2 of 7 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 27, 2023 Planning and Development Department
VMT is a number that represents all the miles a vehicle must travel in one day for everyday errands and commutes to work based on land uses and location. A project with a high VMT number is not good for the environment because more vehicle miles traveled, means more greenhouse gas emitted. Places that have high VMT numbers are those where a vehicle is essential for daily trips. In areas where walking, bicycling, and public transit are convenient alternatives to driving, typically have a lower VMT, thus fewer GHG emissions.

The main difference between LOS and VMT analysis is that an LOS analysis focuses local transportation impacts while a VMT analysis focuses on regional impacts. Simply stated, VMT measures the per capita number of vehicle trips generated by a project and estimates the distances that those vehicles will travel to and from a project while LOS measures congestion levels at intersections.

It is important to note that cities may still use traffic studies and LOS to understand a project’s effects on streets and intersections, but those studies can no longer be used for purpose of identifying impacts pursuant to CEQA. The City of Santa Fe Springs will continue to utilize traffic studies and LOS analysis to analyze a project’s local transportation impacts.

CONSULTANT SELECTION
At the City Council meeting of September 26, 2019, the City Council authorized the Director of Planning to release a Request for Proposal (RFP) to qualified consultants to establish a new Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) methodology to evaluate transportation impacts consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and meet the requirements of Senate Bill (SB) 743.

After releasing the RFP, the City received three (3) proposals. All three proposal were evaluated based on the evaluation criteria and point system as outlined in the City’s RFP.

Fehr & Peers was selected as the firm to create the new VMT methodology for the City.

On October 19, 2021, the City Council authorized the Mayor or designee to execute a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Fehr & Peers. The Planning and Development and Engineering Department staff, along with the City Attorney’s office, have continued to work with Fehr & Peers to develop a Transportation Study Guidelines for Santa Fe Springs. The attached Transportation Study Guidelines is the result of said collaborative efforts.

RECOMMENDATION BY PLANNING COMMISSION
At the regularly scheduled Planning Commission meetings on March 14, 2022 and August 8, 2022, the City’s transportation consultant (Fehr & Peers) provided a brief presentation to provide the commissioners with a general overview and update on SB City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 3 of 7 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 27, 2023 Planning and Development Department
743 implementation, respectively. At the regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting on April 10, 2023, after more than one and half years of collaboration and many revisions, the proposed Transportation Study Guidelines was presented to the Planning Commission. Following the presentation provided by the City’s transportation consultant, the Planning Commission unanimously passed Resolution No, 228-2023 to recommend that the City Council adopt the City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines. It should be noted that the Planning Commission did not suggest any changes to the proposed Transportation Study Guidelines and therefore the guidelines being forwarded to the City Council for consideration is unchanged.

OVERVIEW OF TRANSPORTATION STUDY GUIDELINES
In response to SB 743 and the termination of the Los Angeles County Congestion Management Plan (CMP) provisions, staff and City’s transportation consulting firm, Fehr and Peers, has developed Transportation Study Guidelines (TSG) to establish standard procedures for consistent analysis and evaluation.

The TSG is organized into two sections. The first section is focused on regional travel and new procedures related to evaluating VMT, as required by SB 743, and identifying significant impacts for purposes of CEQA. Project screening to evaluate the level of analysis needed, analysis methods, thresholds of significance, and example mitigation options are addressed. The second section is focused on the Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) and includes both vehicular level of service (LOS) analyses and multimodal assessments to document consistency with General Plan policies for safe and efficient local operations.

Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT Analysis)
Pursuant to the adoption of SB 743, the implementation of CEQA guidance for transportation impact assessment in the City of Santa Fe Springs includes the following:
• VMT Screening: The first step in the traffic analysis process is to determine when a VMT analysis is required. The City of Santa Fe Springs requires that VMT screening be conducted based on the recommendations of the Governor’s Office of Planning & Research (OPR). OPR recommends that projects be screened from a VMT analysis based on their size, location, or accessibility to transit. In addition, transportation projects that are not adding new travel lanes may be screened from further VMT analysis. Table 1 within the Transportation Study Guidelines provides VMT Screening Guidance.
• VMT Analysis Methodology: If the project is not screened from needing a VMT analysis (based on the screening criteria in Table 1), the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) regional Travel Demand Model should be used to estimate a project’s VMT. OPR recommends that VMT be reported as City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 4 of 7 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 27, 2023 Planning and Development Department
“Home-Based VMT” per capita for residential projects and “Home-Based Work VMT” per employee for office projects. Per OPR guidance, the City of Santa Fe Springs would evaluate each component of a mixed-use project independently and apply the significance threshold for the land use types proposed. Total VMT and/or VMT per service population (total of residents and employees) is to be reported for area plans, large-scale retail projects, or other project types, such as special event venues.

VMT analysis should provide ‘project generated VMT’ under the scenarios below. Project generated VMT shall include the VMT generated by the site that is then compared back to the City’s threshold of significance. The VMT analysis should consider the potential impacts of the project under both existing and future/cumulative conditions as follows:
o Existing/Baseline Conditions - Project-generated VMT should be estimated for the proposed land uses under existing/baseline conditions.
o Existing/Baseline plus Project - The project land use would be added to the project Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) or a separate TAZ6 would be created to contain the project land uses.
o Cumulative Conditions - Cumulative data is available from the SCAG model.
o Cumulative plus Project - The project land use would either be added to the project TAZ or a separate TAZ would be created to contain and incorporate the project land uses using the future year SCAG model that reflects cumulative conditions.
• VMT Impact Thresholds: Projects exceeding a level of 15 percent below the Baseline VMT (reported as VMT per capita, per employee, or per service population) are considered to have a significant VMT impact. For regional retail projects, projects resulting in a net increase in total Citywide VMT are considered to have a significant VMT impact. The City of Santa Fe Springs has defined the area encompassed by the City boundary and the City’s Sphere of Influence (SOI) as the geographic area for impact analysis relating to residential and employment uses. The scale of analysis for retail projects will be based on changes to VMT for an area to be determined in consultation with City staff. The study area would be dependent on factors such as land use, scale, and proximity to the City’s borders. The baseline VMT in the City of Santa Fe Springs and Sphere of Influence (SOI) for the year of 2020 are presented in Table 2A of the Transportation Study Guidelines. The VMT thresholds for projects and plans in the City of Santa Fe Springs are summarized in Table 2B of the Transportation Study Guidelines.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 5 of 7 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 27, 2023 Planning and Development Department
• VMT Mitigation: The types of mitigation that effect VMT are generally those that reduce the number of single-occupant vehicles generated by the site and/or reduce the distance of trips to/from the site. This can be accomplished by changing the land uses being proposed or by implementing transportation demand management (TDM) measures. A total of 30 TDM strategies including site modifications, programming, and operational changes that a project may consider implementing to reduce VMT are detailed in Attachment D (VMT Mitigation Strategies) of the Transportation Study Guidelines.

Local Transportation Assessment (LTA)
While LOS analysis will no longer be required for CEQA purposes, the City of Santa Fe Springs will continue to require an evaluation to identify potential safety and operational issues when applied against established City criteria. This approach continues to use Level of Service (LOS) to evaluate land development and infrastructure projects and adds elements to ensure that multimodal transportation considerations are consistent with the City’s General Plan policies.

The Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) will analyze the changes in the LOS of designated intersections and/or roadway segments through a progression of scenarios beginning with existing traffic conditions. If any significant degradation of operations is indicated, the LTA will propose feasible improvements that are needed to accommodate the additional travel needs generated by the project.

Triggers and requirements for the LTA are identified in Section 3.1 of the Transportation Study Guidelines. Lastly, in addition to a requirements that the LTA must be prepared by a registered Civil or Traffic Engineer, or qualified transportation professional, the LTA report must include the following information:
• Project Description
• Transportation Circulation Setting
o Existing and Proposed Site Uses
o Existing and Proposed Complete Streets Environmental
Assessments
o Existing and Proposed Roadways and Intersections
• Analysis and Identification of Operational Deficiencies o Trip Generation Analysis
o Trip Distribution
o Related Projects List
o LOS analysis and City’s Criteria
o Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis
o Operational Enhancement Measures
o On-Site Parking Analysis
o Access and Circulation Analysis

There are four questions in the section XVII of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Transportation Checklist.1 Would the project:
a. Conflict with a program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities? b. Would the project conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b)?
c. Substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? d. Result in inadequate emergency access?
The second question (b) is referring to the CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b), which describes potential impacts to Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). VMT is the new performance measure to determine significant transportation impacts under CEQA, after California Senate Bill 743 (SB 743) eliminated level of service (LOS).

In response to SB 743 and the termination of Los Angeles County Congestion Management Program (CMP) provisions, the City of Santa Fe Springs has established the following guidelines for the preparation of a Transportation Impact Study (TIS) Report.

The purpose of these guidelines is to establish standard procedures for consistent analysis and evaluation. It is strongly recommended that the transportation professional representing developers, property owners and/or architects consult with City staff prior to commencing the study, making assumptions, and/or performing any traffic data collection.

The document is organized into two sections. The first section is focused on regional travel and new procedures related to evaluating VMT, as required by SB 743, and identifying significant impacts for purposes of CEQA. Project screening to evaluate the level of analysis needed, analysis methods, thresholds of significance, and example mitigation options are addressed. The second section is focused on the Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) and includes both vehicular level of service (LOS) analyses and multimodal assessments to document consistency with General Plan policies for safe and efficient local operations. For more information about the City’s goals regarding LOS, local safety, and operational guidance please refer to the Circulation Element of the City’s General Plan.

2.1Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis
Pursuant to the adoption of SB 743, the implementation of CEQA guidance for transportation impact assessment in the City of Santa Fe Springs includes the following:
 VMT Screening: The first step in the traffic analysis process is to determine when a VMT analysis is required. The City of Santa Fe Springs requires that VMT screening be conducted based on the recommendations of the Governor’s Office of Planning & Research (OPR). OPR recommends that projects be screened from a VMT analysis based on their size, location, or accessibility to transit. In addition, transportation projects that are not adding new travel lanes may be screened from further VMT analysis. Details on applying the VMT screening process are provided in Table 1.
 VMT Analysis Methodology: If the project is not screened from needing a VMT analysis, the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) regional Travel Demand Model should be used to estimate a project’s VMT. OPR recommends that VMT be reported as “Home-Based VMT” per capita for residential projects and “Home-Based Work VMT” per employee for office projects. Per OPR guidance, the City of Santa Fe Springs would evaluate each component of a mixed-use project independently and apply the significance threshold for the land use types proposed. Total VMT and/or VMT per service population (total of residents and employees) is to be reported for area plans, large-scale retail projects, or other project types, such as special event venues.  VMT Impact Thresholds: Projects exceeding a level of 15 percent below the Baseline VMT (reported as VMT per capita, per employee, or per service population) are considered to have a significant VMT impact. For regional retail projects, projects resulting in a net increase in total Citywide VMT are considered to have a significant VMT impact. The City of Santa Fe Springs has defined the area encompassed by the City boundary and the City’s Sphere of Influence (SOI) as the geographic area for impact analysis relating to residential and employment uses. The scale of analysis for retail projects will be based on changes to VMT for an area to be determined in consultation with City staff. The study area would be dependent on factors such as land use, scale, and proximity to the City’s borders.  VMT Mitigation: The types of mitigation that effect VMT are generally those that reduce the number of single-occupant vehicles generated by the site and/or reduce the distance of trips to/from the site. This can be accomplished by City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 5 changing the land uses being proposed or by implementing transportation demand management (TDM) measures.

Attachment A shows the flowchart of VMT assessment for the City of Santa Fe Springs. The following sections describe the CEQA analysis process in greater detail.

2.2VMT Screening Criteria
Based on the guidance provided by OPR, land use projects can be screened from a VMT analysis based on their size, location, or accessibility to transit. In addition, transportation projects that are not adding new travel lanes may be screened from further VMT analysis. Screening opportunities in the City of Santa Fe Springs are described in Table 1. A project only needs to satisfy one of the screening criteria to be exempt from requiring further VMT analysis.

In the screening criteria of transit proximity, projects located in a Transit Priority Area (TPA) may be screened out from conducting a VMT analysis because they are presumed to have a less than significant impact absent substantial evidence to the contrary. The City of Santa Fe Springs has determined TPAs to be areas within one-half mile of where two or more 15-minute (during commute hours) bus routes intersect or within one-half mile of a corridor served by 15-minute (during commute hours) bus service.

Figure 1 shows the TPAs within the City of Santa Fe Springs. Transit service may change over time; Figure 1 includes the TPAs in Santa Fe Springs as of May 2022 and includes future conditions when the Eastside Transit Corridor Phase 2 Project (Metro L Line) is complete.2 As project applicants seek to use this screening criteria, they are responsible for reviewing the current transit service and demonstrating how their project qualifies for this screening criteria. Applying the TPA screening for the future Eastside Transit Corridor Train station would only be appropriate when the anticipated opening year of a project aligns with anticipated opening year of the Metro L Line. Please refer to Figures 2, 3, and 4 for Citywide mapping of high/low VMT areas for daily total VMT, residential VMT, and employment VMT, respectively.
2 Bus schedules were adjusted in August 2020 in response to COVID-19.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 6 TABLE 1: VMT SCREENING GUIDANCE
Screening Categories Project Requirements to Meet Screening Criteria Project Size A project that generates 110 or fewer daily trips.

Locally Serving Retail
A project that has locally serving retail uses that are 50,000 square feet or less, including specialty retail, shopping center, grocery store, pharmacy, financial services/banks, fitness center or health club, restaurant, and café. If the project contains other land uses, those uses need to be considered under other applicable screening criteria.

Proposed projects less than 50,000 square feet that are unique uses or regional draws, may require additional information or evidence that they will be local-serving.

Project Located in a Low VMT Area
A residential or office project that is located in a Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) that is already 15% below the City and Sphere of Influence (SOI) Baseline VMT. (See Figures 2-4.)
Transit Proximity
For existing baseline projects that are located within a ½ mile of where two or more 15-minute (during commute hours) bus routes intersect or within a ½ mile of a corridor served by 15-minute (during commute hours) bus service may be eligible. Future baseline conditions would also include the area located within a ½ mile of the Eastside Transit Corridor Phase 2 Project.

In addition to the above criteria, the project should meet the following criteria:
• A Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.75 or greater
• Is consistent with the applicable SCAG Sustainable
Community Strategy (SCS) (as determined by the City)
• Does not provide more parking than required by the City • Does not replace affordable housing units
Affordable Housing
A residential project that provides affordable housing units; if part of a larger development, only those units that meet the definition of affordable housing satisfy the screening criteria.

Transportation Facilities
Transportation projects that promote non-auto travel, improve safety, or improve traffic operations at current bottlenecks, such as transit, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, intersection traffic control (e.g., traffic signals or roundabouts), or widening at intersections to provide new turn lanes.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 7 City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 8 City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 9 City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 10 City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 11 2.3VMT Analysis Methodology
For projects that do not meet any of the screening criteria in Table 1, a VMT analysis is required and should rely on a reasonable standard of care to develop trip generation and trip length estimates for the project uses. For land use plans (e.g., Specific Plan or General Plan) and projects consisting of residential, office, industrial, or retail, the VMT analysis should be conducted using the SCAG regional Travel Demand Model. For other project types, such as a performing arts center or special event venues, the VMT analysis should be customized to determine the unique trip generation and trip length characteristics of the proposed uses. This approach should be determined in consultation with City of Santa Fe Springs staff.

VMT analysis should provide ‘project generated VMT’ under the scenarios below. Project generated VMT shall include the VMT generated by the site that is then compared back to the City’s threshold of significance. The VMT analysis should consider the potential impacts of the project under both existing and future/cumulative conditions as follows:

2.3.1.1 Existing/Baseline Conditions
Project-generated VMT should be estimated for the proposed land uses under existing/baseline conditions. VMT can be estimated using the SCAG regional Travel Demand Model and should be reported as Total VMT per service population (area plans, large-scale retail projects, or other project types, such as special event venues; see Figure 2), Home-Based VMT per capita (residential projects; see Figure 3), and Home-Based Work VMT per employee (office, industrial or other employmentgenerating projects; see Figure 4). For land use plans, Total VMT per service population or Total VMT can be used to determine potential impacts. Baseline conditions typically represent the year of the Notice of Preparation (NOP).3 Interpolation between SCAG’s base year model and future year model may be required to identify the VMT representative of the baseline year4. Per OPR guidelines, truck-generated VMT analysis is not required for transportation impact assessment. 5 The traffic
effects of trucks are studied under the Local Transportation Assessment. 2020 baseline VMT estimates are based on data derived from the SCAG regional Travel Demand Model. Updates should be done on a four-year cycle, following when SCAG updates their most recent RTP/SCS regional model for local agency use.
3 If an EIR is required, baseline conditions should be tied to the NOP date. If an EIR is not required, the baseline may be tied to when an application is deemed complete. 4 Base year and future year SCAG’s model information are based on SCAG Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Scenario years and can be requested from SCAG.
5 Truck-generated VMT is not analyzed under a CEQA transportation impact study, however, it is analyzed as part of CEQA’s air quality and greenhouse gas analysis.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 12 Existing/Baseline plus Project
The project land use would be added to the project TAZ or a separate TAZ6 would be created to contain the project land uses. A full model run of the baseline scenario year would be performed and VMT changes would be isolated for the project TAZ and across the full model network. If this scenario results in a less-than-significant impact, then additional cumulative scenario analysis may not be required (see next section).

2.3.1.2 Cumulative Conditions
This data is available from the SCAG model. However, a less than significant impact under Existing/Baseline conditions would also result in a less than significant cumulative impact as long as the project is consistent with the SCAG Regional Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS).

2.3.1.3 Cumulative plus Project
The project land use would either be added to the project TAZ or a separate TAZ would be created to contain the project land uses using the future year SCAG model that reflects cumulative conditions. VMT should be reported as Total VMT per service population, Home-Based VMT per capita, or Home-Based Work VMT per employee. For land use plans, Total VMT per service population or Total VMT can be used to determine potential impacts.

The baseline and cumulative “plus project” scenarios noted above will summarize project generated VMT (per service population, per capita, or per employee) and compare it back to the appropriate benchmark noted in the thresholds of significance.

Project-generated VMT shall be extracted from the travel demand forecasting model using the origin-destination trip matrix and shall multiply that matrix by the final assignment skims. A glossary of terms and a detailed description of this process is attached to these guidelines in Attachment B and C.

2.3.2 VMT Impact Thresholds
OPR has identified 15% below the average baseline VMT as the threshold for identifying a significant VMT impact for land use projects and plans. This is based on research conducted to determine the VMT reduction needed to help the State achieve its climate goals. The California Air Resources Board has quantified the need for VMT reduction to meet the State’s long-term climate goals and OPR sees reducing VMT to 15% below existing conditions as a reasonable threshold for new development projects. OPR guidance is also provided for transportation projects. For roadway widening and transportation infrastructure projects, a significant impact would occur if the project increased the baseline VMT in the study area. The baseline VMT in the City of Santa Fe Springs and 6 Project land use will be added to a separate TAZ accounted separately for other existing land use in the TAZ.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 13 Sphere of Influence (SOI) are presented in Table 2A. The VMT thresholds for projects and plans in the City of Santa Fe Springs are summarized in Table 2B.

TABLE 2A: BASELINE VMT IN THE CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS AND SOI7 VMT Metrics Average VMT (2020 Baseline)

Land Use Plans Plan exceeds 15% below City + SOI Baseline VMT for Total VMT per service population
Other Land Use Types
Project exceeds 15% below City + SOI Baseline VMT. For land use types not listed above, the City can determine the appropriate VMT metric depending on the project characteristics. For projects that are generally producing jobrelated travel, the employment generating VMT (home- based work VMT per employee) can be compared to the baseline. For other projects, the total VMT can be compared to the City + SOI baseline to determine if the net change in Total VMT exceeds the baseline without the project. 7 SCAG model was used to estimate the Baseline VMT metrics. 8 Per the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidance, regional retail projects are those that exceed 50,000 square feet.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 14 Transportation Projects Project results in an increase in VMT (induced VMT due to added capacity to roadway network) in the City in comparison to baseline conditions

2.3.3 VMT Mitigation
The types of mitigation that affect VMT are those that reduce the number of single-occupant vehicles generated by the project. This can be accomplished by changing the land uses being proposed or by implementing Transportation Demand Management (TDM) strategies. TDM strategies have been determined to be among the most effective VMT impact mitigators. TDM strategies are reductions available from certain types of project site modifications, programming, and operational changes.

The effectiveness of identified TDM strategies is based primarily on research documented in the 2021 California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) publication, Handbook for Analyzing GHG Emission Reductions, Assessing Climate Vulnerabilities, and Advancing Health and Equity (CAPCOA, 2021). CAPCOA offers methodology based on preferred literature, along with methodology based on alternative literature, for each strategy. The strategies described in Attachment D are a sample of the options most effective in areas like the City of Santa Fe Springs.

For a comprehensive list of available TDM strategies, please refer to Handbook for Analyzing GHG Emission Reductions, Assessing Climate Vulnerabilities, and Advancing Health and Equity.

Attachment D to this document provides a comparison of the VMT reductions that can be expected from the strategies in the CAPCOA guidance with anticipated reductions as described in literature that has been published after 2021.

The CAPCOA document contains detailed equations on applying these TDM reductions given the land use type and built environment context. The percent reduction shown in Attachment D should not be directly applied to a project. In addition, some TDM strategies have complementary benefits on reducing VMT and need to be considered in combination and not individually.

Specific mitigation strategies need to be tailored to the project characteristics and their effectiveness needs to be analyzed and documented as part of the environmental review process to determine if impacts could be mitigated or if they would remain significant and unavoidable.

Given that research on the effectiveness of TDM strategies is continuing to evolve, feasible mitigation measures should be considered based on the best data available at the time a project is being considered by the City and documented accordingly in the Transportation Impact Study.

The City of Santa Fe Springs prepared a VMT Evaluation Tool and Users’ Guide to assist developers in screening and estimating project-generated VMT by land use and calculating VMT reductions associated with certain VMT-reducing mitigation measures. The VMT Evaluation Tool demonstrates how a mitigation measure, or a combination of complementary measures, can affect a project’s VMT.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 15 3 Local Transportation Assessment
Overview
In addition to VMT analysis for CEQA, the City of Santa Fe Springs requires an evaluation to identify potential safety and operational issues when applied against established City criteria. This approach continues to use Level of Service (LOS) to evaluate land development and infrastructure projects and adds elements to ensure that multimodal transportation considerations are consistent with the City’s General Plan policies.

In the event a development project significantly degrades the effective use or safety of City streets, improvements may be required. Required improvements should consider transit, bicycle, and pedestrian improvements as well as roadway and operational improvements.

The Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) will analyze the changes in the LOS of designated intersections and/or roadway segments through a progression of scenarios beginning with existing traffic conditions. If any significant degradation of operations is indicated, the LTA will propose feasible improvements that are needed to accommodate the additional travel needs generated by the project.

The City standard for the minimum LOS for intersections and roadway segments is:

LOS D or better
The traffic analysis should not use any traffic counts that are more than four months old without the advanced approval of the City Traffic Engineer. If traffic counts taken within the last four months are not available, then new traffic counts shall be collected by a qualified data collection firm. Traffic counts are required to be performed within typical traffic conditions. Traffic count collection shall not be performed during:

1. Holidays (or holiday periods)

2. Construction periods (when there are existing roadway detours, traffic control, or construction impacting study intersections and roadways)

3. Other significant circumstances (e.g. national emergencies or special occasions that may alter typical traffic conditions)
Any work performed on City right-of-way will require a permit. The City can provide a “No fee permit” after receiving a proposed work schedule.9
9 City street sweeping schedules will need to be reviewed.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 16 3.1Local Transportation Assessment Study Scope
The City is generally concerned with degradations to traffic operations and safety if:

1. Traffic generated (autos & truck) by a project alone or cumulatively with other related projects, when added to existing traffic volumes, exceeds certain capacity thresholds of an intersection or roadway, contributes to an unacceptable LOS, or exacerbates an existing congested condition.

2. Project generated traffic (autos & truck) interferes with the existing traffic flow (e.g., due to the location of access roads, driveways, and parking facilities).

3. Proposed access locations do not provide for adequate safety (e.g., due to limited visibility on curving roadways- stopping site distance may be required)10.

4. Nonresidential uses generate commuter or truck traffic through a residential area.

5. Project generated traffic significantly increases on a residential street and alters its residential character.

6. Turning movements (autos & truck) are identified to impact existing and/or future conditions.

7. Any vehicle queuing for all movements on principal and collector roadways adjacent or less than 1,000 feet from the project site.

The LTA must be prepared by a registered Civil or Traffic Engineer, or qualified transportation professional. The LTA is generally needed if a project generates any additional vehicle trips that are assigned to any movement (left/through/right-turns to any intersection approach) at a signalized intersection in the peak hour or where other possible adverse operational degradations may occur, as discussed below. Study locations would be determined in consultation with City staff and should include:
• All primary project driveways
• All signalized intersections within 1,000 feet of primary project driveways, regardless of jurisdictional boundary
• Unsignalized intersections within 1,000 feet of the project site or that serve as project access points regardless of jurisdictional boundary
• All signalized intersections within a half mile radius to the project site where the project would add trips, regardless of jurisdictional boundary
10 The result of this safety analysis can be used for CEQA checklist item c.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 18 3.2.3 Analysis and Identification of Operational Deficiencies The following information is required in the LTA:

Trip Generation Analysis
Tabulate the estimated number of daily trips and A.M. and P.M. peak-hour trips generated by the proposed project entering and exiting the site. Trip generation factors and source are to be included. The trip generation rates contained in the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation manual should generally be used unless better information is available.

There may be a trip reduction due to internal and/or pass-by trips. Internal trip reduction can only be applied for mixed-use types of developments and pass-by trip reduction for retail/commercial types of developments. Internal or pass-by trip reduction assumptions will require analytical support based on verifiable actual similar developments to demonstrate how the figures were derived and will require approval by the City.

Trip Distribution
Diagrams showing the percentages and volumes of the project and nearby project's A.M. and P.M. peak-hour trips logically distributed on the roadway system must be provided. If it is assumed that new routes will alter traffic patterns, adequate backup including traffic distribution maps must be provided showing how and why these routes will alter traffic patterns.

The study area should include arterial highways, freeways, and intersections generally within a onemile radius of the project site.

Related Projects List
A list of related projects that are within a one-half mile radius of the project site and would reasonably be expected to be in place by the project's build out year must be included in the report.

Related projects shall include all pending, approved, recorded, or constructed projects that are not occupied at the time of the existing traffic counts. Related projects can be obtained from the Santa Fe Springs Planning department.

A table and a map showing the status, project/zone change/conditional use permit/parcel map/tract number, and the location of each project must be provided.

LOS Analysis and City’s Criteria
If it appears that the project's generated traffic alone or together with other projects in the area could worsen the LOS of an intersection or roadway, a "before" and "after" LOS analysis is necessary.

The latest version of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) should be applied to assess existing and future LOS at intersections.

Intersection LOS analysis and calculation work sheets, as well as diagrams showing turning volumes shall be included in the report for the following traffic conditions.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 19 i. Existing traffic;
ii. Existing traffic plus ambient growth to the year the project will be completed; iii. Traffic in (ii) plus project traffic;
iv. Traffic in (iii) with the proposed operational enhancements (if necessary); v. Traffic in (iii) plus the cumulative traffic of other known developments; and vi. Traffic in (v) with the proposed operational enhancements (if necessary) The project's effect on two-lane roadways should also be analyzed for all the above traffic conditions if those two-lane roadways are used for site access. LOS analysis contained in the Highway Capacity Analysis, Chapter 8, Two-Lane Highways, should be used to evaluate the project’s effect.

The City standard for the minimum LOS for intersections and roadway segments is LOS D or better.

Intersections in the City that do not meet these targets are considered deficient.

Signalized intersections will require improvements if the following conditions are met:
 For an intersection with LOS D or better, the addition of project traffic results in the degradation of intersection operations to LOS E or F.  For an intersection with LOS E or F, the addition of project traffic results in any degradation of intersection operations.

Unsignalized intersections will require improvements if the following conditions are met:
 For an intersection with LOS D or better, the addition of project traffic results in the degradation of any individual movement at the intersection to LOS E or F, or for an intersection with LOS E or F, the addition of project traffic results in the degradation of any individual movement, and
 The intersection meets peak hour signal warrants either caused by project volumes, or project volumes are added at an intersection that meets peak hour signal warrants in the baseline scenario(s). Peak hour signal warrants should be determined based on the latest California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD).

Roadway segments shall be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Deficiencies identified to be improved will be determined in coordination with the City Traffic Engineer based on various factors including determined LOS, anticipated street improvements, and LOS at critical intersections along the roadway segment.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 20 Traffic Signals
The following information is required if the installation of a traffic signal is being considered:

Traffic signal warrant analysis using the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Peak-Hour (Figures 9-8 and 9-9 of Caltrans Traffic Manual) and Estimated Average Daily (Figure 9- 4 of Caltrans Traffic Manual) Traffic Warrant Analysis should be provided. In certain situations, the other available signal warrants may also be required. If the installation of signals is warranted with the addition of the project's traffic, then the installation will be the sole responsibility of the project.

If it is warranted with cumulative traffic of the project and other related projects, the following formula should be used to calculate the project percent share.

Project Percentage Share = Project Traffic / (Project + Other Related Projects Traffic) The project percent share should be based on the peak-hour volumes that warrant signals. If both peak hours satisfy the installation of signals, the average of the two peak-hour volumes should be used in the percent share analysis.

Operational Enhancement Measures
The following information is required if study intersections or roadway segments are found to be deficient:

Identify feasible operational enhancements to reduce the projects' operational deficiencies to a level below the threshold identified. Also, identify those measures which will be implemented by others. Those measures that are assumed to be implemented by others will be made a condition of approval for the project to be in place prior to issuance of building permits. It is important to note that some of the operational enhancement measures may require additional CEQA analysis (e.g.

VMT analysis) and could include the following:
a. Traffic Engineering Techniques
i. Locate access points to optimize visibility and reduce potential conflict. ii. Design parking facilities to avoid queuing into public streets during peak arrival periods.
iii. Provide additional off-street parking (e.g. for Transportation Network Companies (TNCs) or commercial vehicle delivery).
iv. Dedicate visibility easements to assure adequate sight distance at intersections and driveways.
v. Signalize or modify traffic signals at intersections.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 21 vi. Install left-turn phasing and/or multiple turning lanes to accommodate particularly heavy turning movements.
vii. Provide left- or right-turn lanes to lessen interference with the traffic flow. viii. Prohibit left turns to and from the proposed development. b. Contribute to a benefit district to fund major capital improvements i. Construct a grade separation.
ii. Improve or construct alternate routes.
iii. Complete proposed Capital Projects in the City’s Capital Improvement Program.
iv. Improve freeway interchanges (bridge, widening, modifications, and etc.) c. Transportation System Management (TSM) Techniques11
i. Establish flexible working hours.
ii. Encourage employee use of carpools and public transportation (specific measures must be indicated).
iii. Establish preferential parking for carpools.
iv. Restrict truck deliveries to Major and Secondary highways and encourage deliveries during the off-peak hours.
v. Establish a monitoring program to ensure that project traffic volumes do not exceed projected traffic demand.

On-Site Parking Analysis
This analysis will address the on-site parking supply versus parking required per City code. If the proposed development is of mixed-use type, a table shall be included presenting each land use, its size, and the code parking requirement. This table should clearly indicate how the code parking was calculated and include the proposed on-site parking supply together with the resultant surplus or deficit from code requirements.

Should the on-site parking supply be less than required by the City code, a detailed explanation justifying a reduction to the code requirement must be included. Note that this does not eliminate 11 Contributions to a benefit district and/or TSM techniques may not be used to lower LOS in the capacity calculations.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 22 the need for any zoning code variance. Shared parking evaluations will be considered when appropriate.

Access and Circulation Analysis
The project’s effects on access points and on-site circulation shall be analyzed. The analysis shall, as appropriate, include the following:
a. Number of access points proposed for the project site. b. Space between driveways and intersections.
c. Potential signalization of driveways.
d. On-site stacking distance. (including uses with a drive thru.) e. Shared access.
f. Turn conflicts/restrictions.
g. Adequate site distance.
h. Driveway improvements.
i. Pedestrian connections.
j. Any other operational characteristics (as identified by City staff).

If the proposed project is a residential or commercial use with privacy gates, the applicant shall provide a stacking analysis for review and approval. The adequacy of the interface with the arterial network will need to be demonstrated and necessary improvements to adjacent intersections may be required.

The LTA report should provide a compilation of any applicable improvements for the project.

When the model has multiple assignment periods, OD trip tables and congested skims from each period should be used.

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 28 Term Definition
Total VMT
per service population
Same method as above (Total VMT generated by a project) to estimate VMT and then divide by the population and employment of the zone or zones of study. If the model generates vehicle trips from other sources such as students and visitors, then include those variables in the service population. Note that employment is often used as the independent variable for total vehicle trip generation associated with non-residential land uses. This means that vehicle trips made by people other than the employees are accounted for in the trip rate including visitors, customers, vendors, custodians, and delivery companies. For this reason, it is often difficult to draw conclusions about VMT patterns and use of the metric should be limited to analysis scenarios comparing full model runs typically focused on changes at the sub-regional, city, county, or regional scale.

Some trip-based models may not use population and employment as trip generation variables. Instead, they will rely on land uses. A ‘correspondence’ between the model land use input variables and population and employment rates is required for these types of models.

30 4.3Attachment C: Detailed VMT Forecasting
Information
This section provides detailed VMT forecasting instructions for use with the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) Travel Demand Model. Please note that SCAG periodically updates the travel demand model and the latest version available should be utilized for VMT assessment in the City.

The SCAG travel demand model is a trip-based model that generates daily person trip-ends for each TAZ across various trip purposes (Home-based-work, home-based-other, and non-homebased for example) based on population, household, and employment variables. This may create challenges for complying with the VMT guidance because trip generation is not directly tied to specific land use categories. The following methodology addresses this particular challenge among others.

Production and attraction trip-ends are separately calculated for each traffic analysis zone (TAZ or zone), and generally: production trip-ends are generated by residential land uses and attraction trip-ends are generated by non-residential land uses. Focusing on residential and employment land uses, the first step to forecasting VMT requires translating the land use into model terms, the closest approximations are:
• Residential: home-based production trips
• Employment: home-based work attraction trips
Note that this excludes all non-home-based trips including work-based other and other-based other trips.

The challenges with computing VMT for these two types of trips in a trip-based model are 1) production and attraction trip-ends are not distinguishable after the productions/attractions (PA) to origin/destination (OD) conversion process and 2) trip purposes are not maintained after the mode choice step. For these reasons, it is not possible to use the VMT results from the standard vehicle assignment (even using a select zone re-assignment). A separate post-process must be developed to re-estimate VMT for each zone that includes trip-end types and trip purposes. In order to provide the most accurate estimates possible, the recommended approach to estimating VMT is outlined below. Deviating from this approach will require justification and approval from the City Traffic Engineer.

4.3.1 VMT Forecasting Instructions
This approach will calculate total Origin/Destination (OD) VMT using standard SCAG model output files. The OD method for calculating total VMT includes all vehicle trips that start in a specific traffic analysis zone, and all vehicle trips that end in a specific traffic analysis zone. The major steps of this approach are listed as follows:

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines 31 • Re-skim final loaded congested networks and adjust the external skim for each mode and time period to account for truncated trips
• Multiply appropriate distance skim matrices by OD trip matrices to estimate VMT by time period
• Sum matrices by time period and mode to calculate daily automobile VMT • Calculate automobile VMT for individual TAZs

4.3.2 Appropriateness Checks
The number of vehicle trips from the total VMT estimation should match as closely as possible with the results from the traditional model process. The estimated results should be checked against the results from a full model run to understand the degree of accuracy. Note that these custom processes may or may not include full lengths of IX/XI trips (trips with origins or destinations outside of the model roadway network) or special generator trips (airport, seaport, stadium, etc.).

When calculating VMT for comparison at the study area, citywide, or regional geography, the same methodology that was used to estimate project specific VMT should be used. The VMT for these comparisons can be easily calculated by aggregating the row or column totals for all zones that are within the desired geography.

Limit Residential
Parking Supply
This measure will reduce the total parking supply
available at a residential project or site. Limiting the amount of parking available creates scarcity and adds
additional time and inconvenience to trips made by
private auto, thus disincentivizing driving as a mode of travel. Reducing the convenience of driving results in a shift to other modes and decreased VMT and thus a
reduction in GHG emissions.

Evidence of the effects of reduced parking supply is
strongest for residential developments.

Eliminate or reduce total parking supply for residential projects or sites. This measure does not work if project is within walking distance of unrestricted street parking or other parking is available.

Reducing residential parking
supply, especially in high density
residential areas, can have highcost savings if it reduces the need for additional investment in
parking infrastructure. Some of
these savings may be offset by
investments in alternative
transport solutions, which will
need to be robust to ensure that
residents can effectively travel to
work and all other destinations
without a car.

Parking demand is calculated
based on project build square

Parking Costs
from
Property Cost
This measure will unbundle, or separate, a residential
project’s parking costs from property costs, requiring
those who wish to purchase parking spaces to do so at
an additional cost. On the assumption that parking costs are passed through to the vehicle owners/drivers
utilizing the parking spaces, this measure results in
decreased vehicle ownership and, therefore, a reduction in VMT and GHG emissions. Unbundling may not be
available to all residential developments, depending on funding sources.

Reductions apply only if complementary strategies are in place to limit spill-over to on-street parking. Note that this may require coordination with the local agency as
proposed supply may not be consistent with policy
requirements. Depending on project location and
availability of alternative transportation options,
implementation of parking measures may require
implementing other supportive strategies.

Might apply Residential T-16
Up to 15.7%
(GHG
Handbook)
Unbundling residential parking
costs from property costs may
decrease revenue for property
owners. This loss may be partially
offset by reduced costs needed to
maintain parking facilities with
less car occupancy and the
potential for non-resident parking
as a supplementary income
stream. For residents, reduced
fees and the ability to go without
owning a car is a major cost
benefit.

Municipalities also benefit from a
reduction of cars on the road,
which can lead to lower
infrastructure and roadway
maintenance costs.

Reductions apply to
residential land uses only.

Statutorily Exempt - CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378 (b)(5) and 15061(b)(3) City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines

BACKGROUND
Historically, the primary metric used to measure local transportation impacts has been Level of Service (LOS). LOS is a grading system with six designations that range from grade “A” to a grade “F”, with LOS “A” representing the best conditions (free flowing) to “F” representing the worst conditions (congested), to score how well an intersection operates during morning and evening rush hour. LOS focuses on the potential impact on traffic congestion based on automobile delay and roadway capacity using traffic studies to determine whether a project will create additional delays on surrounding streets and intersections.

In 2013, Senate Bill 743 (SB 743 - Steinberg) was signed into law and changed the way transportation impacts are measured under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This is due to revamped thinking that the State cannot solve long commutes, traffic congestion, unsustainable land use patterns, and impacts to health, quality of life, and climate, by increasing roadway capacity (because expanded roads quickly fill up again due to pent- up demand) and lessening automobile delay/increasing vehicle speeds (because speeding up traffic flows would induce spreading development farther out, thus making accessibility to destinations more difficult and increasing vehicle miles and emissions).

SB 743 removed LOS as the primary measure of transportation impacts of environmental significance and required the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) to develop revisions to CEQA Guidelines establishing criteria for determining the significance of transportation impacts. OPR subsequently selected Vehicles Miles Travelled (VMT) as the preferred metric to comply with SB 743, as it is more aligned with the state’s goals of reducing GHG emission through promotion of infill development, active transportation and other sustainable land use and transportation projects. As a result, local jurisdictions must transition from using LOS to the VMT methodology when evaluating transportation related impacts of a project for CEQA purposes.

RECOMMENDATIONS
 Find and determine that the project is Statutorily Exempt pursuant to Sections 15378 (b)(5) and 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); and
 Adopt Resolution No. 228-2023 to recommend that the City Council adopt the City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines.

VMT is a number that represents all the miles a vehicle must travel in one day for everyday errands and commutes to work based on land uses and location. A project with a high VMT number is not good for the environment because more vehicle miles traveled, means more greenhouse gas emitted. Places that have high VMT numbers are those where a vehicle is essential for daily trips. In areas where walking, bicycling, and public transit are convenient alternatives to driving, typically have a lower VMT, thus fewer GHG emissions.

The main difference between LOS and VMT analysis is that an LOS analysis focuses local transportation impacts while a VMT analysis focuses on regional impacts.

Simply stated, VMT measures the per capita number of vehicle trips generated by a project and estimates the distances that those vehicles will travel to and from a project while LOS measures congestion levels at intersections.

It is important to note that cities may still use traffic studies and LOS to understand a project’s effects on streets and intersections, but those studies can no longer be used for purpose of identifying impacts pursuant to CEQA. The City of Santa Fe Springs will continue to utilize traffic studies and LOS analysis to analyze a project’s local transportation impacts.

Consultant Selection
At the City Council meeting of September 26, 2019, the City Council authorized the Director of Planning to release a Request for Proposal (RFP) to qualified consultants to establish a new Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) methodology to evaluate transportation impacts consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and meet the requirements of Senate Bill (SB) 743.

After releasing the RFP, the City received three (3) proposals. The proposals received were from EPD solutions, Inc., Minagar and Associates and Fehr & Peers. All three proposal were evaluated based on the evaluation criteria and point system as outlined in the City’s RFP. Fehr & Peers was selected as the firm to create the new VMT methodology for the City.

On October 19, 2021, the City Council authorized the Mayor or designee to execute a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Fehr & Peers. The Planning and Development and Engineering Department staff, along with the City Attorney’s office, have continued to work with Fehr & Peers to develop a Transportation Study Guidelines for Santa Fe Springs. The attached Transportation Study Guidelines is representative of said collaborative efforts.

OVERVIEW OF TRANSPORTATION STUDY GUIDELINES
In response to SB 743 and the termination of the Los Angeles County Congestion Management Plan (CMP) provisions, staff and City’s transportation consulting firm, City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 3 of 8 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 6, 2023 Planning and Development Department
Fehr and Peers, has develop a Transportation Study Guideline (TSG) to establish standard procedures for consistent analysis and evaluation.

The TSG is organized into two sections. The first section is focused on regional travel and new procedures related to evaluating VMT, as required by SB 743, and identifying significant impacts for purposes of CEQA. Project screening to evaluate the level of analysis needed, analysis methods, thresholds of significance, and example mitigation options are addressed. The second section is focused on the Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) and includes both vehicular level of service (LOS) analyses and multimodal assessments to document consistency with General Plan policies for safe and efficient local operations.

Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT Analysis)
Pursuant to the adoption of SB 743, the implementation of CEQA guidance for transportation impact assessment in the City of Santa Fe Springs includes the following:
 VMT Screening: The first step in the traffic analysis process is to determine when a VMT analysis is required. The City of Santa Fe Springs requires that VMT screening be conducted based on the recommendations of the Governor’s Office of Planning & Research (OPR). OPR recommends that projects be screened from a VMT analysis based on their size, location, or accessibility to transit. In addition, transportation projects that are not adding new travel lanes may be screened from further VMT analysis. Table 1 within the Transportation Study Guidelines provides VMT Screening Guidance.  VMT Analysis Methodology: If the project is not screened from needing a VMT analysis (based on the screening criteria in Table 1), the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) regional Travel Demand Model should be used to estimate a project’s VMT. OPR recommends that VMT be reported as “Home-Based VMT” per capita for residential projects and “Home-Based Work VMT” per employee for office projects. Per OPR guidance, the City of Santa Fe Springs would evaluate each component of a mixed-use project independently and apply the significance threshold for the land use types proposed. Total VMT and/or VMT per service population (total of residents and employees) is to be reported for area plans, large-scale retail projects, or other project types, such as special event venues.

VMT analysis should provide ‘project generated VMT’ under the scenarios below. Project generated VMT shall include the VMT generated by the site that is then compared back to the City’s threshold of significance. The VMT analysis should consider the potential impacts of the project under both existing and future/cumulative conditions as follows:

City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 4 of 8 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 6, 2023 Planning and Development Department
o Existing/Baseline Conditions - Project-generated VMT should be estimated for the proposed land uses under existing/baseline conditions.
o Existing/Baseline plus Project - The project land use would be added to the project Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) or a separate TAZ6 would be created to contain the project land uses.
o Cumulative Conditions - Cumulative data is available from the SCAG model.
o Cumulative plus Project - The project land use would either be added to the project TAZ or a separate TAZ would be created to contain and incorporate the project land uses using the future year SCAG model that reflects cumulative conditions.
 VMT Impact Thresholds: Projects exceeding a level of 15 percent below the Baseline VMT (reported as VMT per capita, per employee, or per service population) are considered to have a significant VMT impact. For regional retail projects, projects resulting in a net increase in total Citywide VMT are considered to have a significant VMT impact. The City of Santa Fe Springs has defined the area encompassed by the City boundary and the City’s Sphere of Influence (SOI) as the geographic area for impact analysis relating to residential and employment uses. The scale of analysis for retail projects will be based on changes to VMT for an area to be determined in consultation with City staff. The study area would be dependent on factors such as land use, scale, and proximity to the City’s borders. The baseline VMT in the City of Santa Fe Springs and Sphere of Influence (SOI) for the year of 2020 are presented in Table 2A of the Transportation Study Guidelines. The VMT thresholds for projects and plans in the City of Santa Fe Springs are summarized in Table 2B of the Transportation Study Guidelines.  VMT Mitigation: The types of mitigation that effect VMT are generally those that reduce the number of single-occupant vehicles generated by the site and/or reduce the distance of trips to/from the site. This can be accomplished by changing the land uses being proposed or by implementing transportation demand management (TDM) measures. A total of 30 TDM strategies including site modifications, programming, and operational changes that a project may consider implementing to reduce VMT are detailed in Attachment D (VMT Mitigation Strategies) of the Transportation Study Guidelines.

Local Transportation Assessment (LTA)
While LOS analysis will no longer be required for CEQA purposes, the City of Santa Fe Springs will continue to require an evaluation to identify potential safety and operational issues when applied against established City criteria. This approach continues to use Level of Service (LOS) to evaluate land development City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines Page 5 of 8 Report Submitted By: Cuong Nguyen Date of Report: April 6, 2023 Planning and Development Department
and infrastructure projects and adds elements to ensure that multimodal transportation considerations are consistent with the City’s General Plan policies.

The Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) will analyze the changes in the LOS of designated intersections and/or roadway segments through a progression of scenarios beginning with existing traffic conditions. If any significant degradation of operations is indicated, the LTA will propose feasible improvements that are needed to accommodate the additional travel needs generated by the project.

Triggers and requirements for the LTA are identified in Section 3.1 of the Transportation Study Guidelines. Lastly, in addition to a requirements that the LTA must be prepared by a registered Civil or Traffic Engineer, or qualified transportation professional, the LTA report must include the following information:
 Project Description
 Transportation Circulation Setting
o Existing and Proposed Site Uses
o Existing and Proposed Complete Streets Environmental
Assessments
o Existing and Proposed Roadways and Intersections
 Analysis and Identification of Operational Deficiencies o Trip Generation Analysis
o Trip Distribution
o Related Projects List
o LOS analysis and City’s Criteria
o Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis
o Operational Enhancement Measures
o On-Site Parking Analysis
o Access and Circulation Analysis
Lastly, the attached Transportation Study Guidelines concludes with the following list of attachments:

A. VMT Analysis Flowchart
B. Glossary of Terms
C. Detailed VMT Forecasting Information
D. VMT Mitigation Strategies

PREVIOUS PRESENTATIONS BEFORE PLANNING COMMISION
At the regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting on March 14, 2022 and August 8, 2022, the City’s transportation consultant (Fehr & Peers) provided a brief presentation to provide the commissioners with a general overview and update on SB 743 implementation, respectively.

GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The City's General Plan contains the goals, policies, and programs to address the current and future transportation challenges that the City will confront. The subject Transportation Study Guidelines will allow the city to meet the following goals and policies:

GOAL C-8: TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM DESIGNED TO REDUCE VEHICLE

MILES TRAVELED
• Policy C.8.1 Reducing Vehicle Miles Traveled. Integrate transportation and land use decisions to reduce vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas emissions.

GOAL C-9: A STREET NETWORK MANAGED TO MINIMIZE CONGESTION AND

TRAFFIC IMPACTS
• Policy C.9.1 Traffic Impact Mitigation. Require new development projects to mitigate off-site traffic impacts consistent with City policy and regulations.
• Policy C.9.2. Traffic Impact Analysis. Require new developments to include a traffic impact analysis.
• Policy C.9.4. Traffic Signals. Require new development to install traffic signals at intersections or arterials which, based on individual study, are shown to satisfy traffic signal warrants.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act California (CEQA) Guideline Sections 15378(b)(5) and 15061(b)(3), the proposed Transportation Study Guidelines is not a " project" under CEQA as it is an administrative activity of government and will not result in a direct or indirect physical change to the environment and, therefore, it has been determined that the subject project is not subject to CEQA.

FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact for the City of Santa Fe Springs Transportation Study Guidelines is tied to the consultant cost and city resources required to complete the guidelines. It should be noted that $75,000 has already been allocated for this project into Account No: 1031-9000 (Planning-Non-Recurring). No Additional Resources are being requested at this time.

CONSENT AGENDA
Introduction of Ordinance No. 1128 Amending Chapter 95 of Title IX of the Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code Relating to Public Nuisances

BACKGROUND
Chapter 95 of Title IX of the Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code addresses conditions and uses of land that are offensive or annoying to the senses, detrimental to property values and community appearance, an obstruction to or interference with the comfortable enjoyment of adjacent property or premises, and/or hazardous or injurious to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public. It provides the City with enforcement tools by defining such conditions and uses of land as public nuisances and providing regulations and procedures for abatement.

In reviewing Chapter 95, the City Attorney’s office determined that revisions to the code language were needed to comply with legal requirements, including due process. The City Attorney’s office worked with Police Services to draft Ordinance No. 1128 to comprehensively review the chapter and implement the necessary changes so that the provisions of Chapter 95 may serve as an effective method of enforcement to promote the health, safety, and welfare of the Santa Fe Springs community.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney’s office prepared Ordinance No. 1128.

NOTICE OF SPECIAL ASSESSMENT FOR NUISANCE ABATEMENT
(Claim of the City of Santa Fe Springs)
In compliance with the authority of the provisions of Chapter 95 (Public Nuisances) of Title IX of the Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code, the City Manager of the City of Santa Fe Springs did on or about the __________ day of __________ 20 ____, cause the premises hereinafter described to be rehabilitated or the structure(s) or improvement(s) on the property to be demolished or repaired in order to abate a public nuisance on the real property; and the abatement was conducted in compliance with an order of abatement dated the __________ day of __________ 20 _____; and the City of Santa Fe Springs did on the __________ day of __________ 20 ____, assess the cost of the demolition, rehabilitation, or repair upon the real property; and the same has not been paid nor any part thereof; and that the City of Santa Fe Springs does hereby declare the costs of the demolition, rehabilitation, or repair in the amount so assessed, to with the sum of __________ dollars ($_____), to be a special assessment against the real property.

(A) As an alternative to the procedure contained in § 95.19, the city may cause a nuisance abatement lien to be recorded upon real property upon which a public nuisance was abated pursuant to Cal. Gov’t Code § 38773.1, and future amendments thereto, in the event a Statement of Abatement Costs or a confirmed Statement of Abatement Costs is not paid in a timely manner.
(B) A lien shall not be recorded prior to serving the owner of record of the parcel of land on which the public nuisance is maintained, with a notice. This document shall be served in the same manner as a summons in a civil action in accordance with Article 3 (commencing with § 415.10) of Chapter 4 of Title 5 of Part 2 of the Cal. Code of Civ. Proc. If the owner of record, after diligent search cannot be found, the notice may be served by posting a copy thereof in a conspicuous place upon the property for a period of ten days and publication thereof in a newspaper of general circulation published in the county in which the property is located pursuant to § 6062 of the Cal. Gov’t Code.
(C) The nuisance abatement lien shall be recorded in the Los Angeles County Recorder’s office in the county in which the parcel of land is located and from the date of recording shall have the force, effect, and priority of a judgment lien.

(F) A nuisance abatement lien may be foreclosed by an action brought by the city for a money judgment.
(G) The city may recover from the property owner any costs incurred regarding the processing and recording of the lien and providing notice to the property owner as part of its foreclosure action to enforce the lien.
(H) The amount of a nuisance abatement lien shall also constitute a personal obligation of the property owners of land upon which the nuisance was abated. ('64 Code, § 17A-12) (Ord. 569, passed 10-25-79; Am. Ord. 993, passed 6-26-08) § 95.21 TREBLE COSTS OF ABATEMENT.

Upon entry of a second or subsequent civil or criminal judgment within a two-year period finding that an owner of property is responsible for a public nuisance pursuant to this chapter, the court may order that person to pay treble the costs of the abatement. (Ord. 993, passed 6-26-08)
§ 95.24 RECOVERY OF ATTORNEY’S FEES.
(A) A prevailing party in any administrative, civil or equitable judicial action to abate, or cause the abatement of a public nuisance as defined in § 95.02, or in any appeal or other judicial action arising therefrom, may recover reasonable attorney’s fees in accordance with the following:
(1) Attorney’s fees are not recoverable by any person as a prevailing party unless the City Manager, or a designee thereof, or an attorney for, and on behalf of, the city, elects in writing to seek recovery of the City’s attorney’s fees at the initiation of that individual action or proceeding.

Failure to make such an election precludes any entitlement to, or award of, attorney’s fees in favor of any person or the City.
(2) The City is the prevailing party when an administrative or judicial determination is made or affirmed by which a person is found to be responsible for one or more conditions or activities that constitute a public nuisance. A person is the prevailing party only when a final administrative or judicial determination completely absolves that person of responsibility for all conditions or activities that were alleged, in that action or proceeding, to constitute a public nuisance. An administrative or judicial determination that results in findings of responsibility and non-responsibility on the part of a person for conditions or activities that were alleged in that action or proceeding to constitute a public nuisance, shall nevertheless result in the city being the prevailing party.
(B) Provided that the city has made an election to seek attorney’s fees, an award of attorney’s fees to a person shall not exceed the amount of reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by the city in that action or proceeding.
(Ord. 993, passed 6-26-08)
§ 95.25 APPLICABILITY OF OTHER LAWS.

(A) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code to the contrary, any person who maintains a public nuisance, or who violates any provision of this chapter, or who fails to comply with any obligation or requirement of this chapter, is guilty of a misdemeanor unless the offense is charged as an infraction by a prosecuting attorney. (B) Each person shall be guilty of a separate offense for each and every day, or part thereof, during which a violation of this chapter, or of any law or regulation referenced on this chapter, is allowed, committed, continued, maintained or permitted by such person, and shall be punishable accordingly.

City Council Meeting May 2, 2023
Report Submitted By: Tom Hatch and Oscar Jimenez Date of Report: April 26, 2023 Department: City Manager’s Office/Finance and Administration Services City of Santa Fe Springs

NEW BUSINESS
Resolution No. 9862- Increasing the Compensation for Members of the Planning Commission and Traffic Commission

BACKGROUND
The compensation for Planning Commission and Traffic Commission members is $50 per meeting and, according to the City’s records, has been set at this amount since 1981. It was brought to staff’s attention that this amount should be reviewed, and staff conducted a survey of seven surrounding cities and the respective stipend amount for their commissions (attached). Based on the survey, a $50 dollar stipend per meeting is average among the seven surrounding cities researched; $18 dollars per meeting being the lowest and $150 being the highest. Although the survey shows that Planning Commission and Traffic Commission members are being compensated the average amount compared to surrounding cities, members of the Planning Commission and Traffic Commission are residents who significantly contribute to the City’s operation and success by serving on their respective commissions, and staff is supportive of a compensation increase to $100 per meeting attended
Sections 32.07 and 70.42 of the Code of Santa Fe Springs provide that the compensation for Planning Commission and Traffic Commission members shall be set by City Council resolution for each meeting attended. If adopted, the attached Resolution would provide for compensation at a rate of $100 per meeting attended.

FISCAL IMPACT
Implementing an increase of compensation to Planning Commission and Traffic Commission will increase the yearly cost by approximately $3,000 each and will be accounted for in the FY 2023-24 budget.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 9862 increasing the compensation to Planning Commission and Traffic Commission members from $50 dollars to $100 dollars, per meeting attended.

PRESENTATION
Introduction of Dr. Ramiro Rubalcaba, Superintendent of Los Nietos School District

BACKGROUND
Dr Ramiro Rubalcaba, the newly appointed Superintendent of the Los Nietos School District, visited the Library on March 23, 2023. He met with Maricela Balderas, Director of Community Services and Library staff. After touring the Library, Dr. Rubalcaba and staff discussed Library resources and as well as opportunities for collaboration with the Community Services Department. Dr. Rubalcaba was then invited to be introduced to the City Council at a Council meeting.

Dr. Ramiro Rubalcaba has served as an educator for 27 years as a Teacher’s Assistant, Teacher, Assistant Principal, Principal, and Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources prior to his appointment as the Superintendent for Los Nietos School District. In addition, Dr. Rubalcaba has served as an Adjunct Professor at the University of La Verne and as a consultant and speaker for many school districts and organizations across the country including the U.S. Office for Civil Rights, the California Department of Justice, and Department of Education. Dr. Rubalcaba has been actively involved with the Association of California School Administrators (ACSA) serving on the Secondary School Principal’s State Council for Region 15, as a facilitator for the Personnel Academy, and was fortunate to serve on a delegation with ACSA that went to Washington D.C. to lobby for California education. In 2021, ACSA Region 12 named Dr. Rubalcaba Personnel Administrator of the Year.

The Mayor may wish to call on Maricela Balderas, Director of Community Services to introduce Dr. Rubalcaba to the City Council. Also in attendance tonight is Maritza Nieves, member of the Board of Trustees of the Los Nietos School District.

Proclamation- Proclaiming May 14-20th 2023, as “National Police Week”

BACKGROUND
In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15 as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and the calendar week in which May 15 falls, as National Police Week which pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others.

National Police Week is a collaborative effort of many organizations dedicated to honoring America's law enforcement community. The City of Santa Fe Springs would like to recognize “National Police Week 2023” and honor the service and sacrifice of those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty while protecting our communities. Law Enforcement Week and Peace Officers Memorial Day give us an opportunity to honor these heroes and recognize the sacrifices made in order to protect and serve our communities.

Please join the City of Santa Fe Springs in honoring National Police Week 2023 by recognizing and appreciating the critical contributions and sacrifices made by our Whittier Police Officers and our law enforcement partners proudly serving Santa Fe Springs. We encourage our community to express their gratitude and appreciation for our law enforcement officers who are all too seldom recognized for their commitment to the safety and well-being of our Santa Fe Springs community.

PRESENTATION
Proclaiming May 15, 2023 as Santa Fe Springs History Day – Celebratiing 66th Anniversary as a Municipal Government Agency

BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Fe Springs was incorporated on May 15, 1957. Last year, at the recommendation of the Historical and Community Preservation Advisory Committee (HCPAC), the City adopted its first ever Santa Fe Springs History Day to educate residents on the City’s rich history, and remember and understand the past so that we can build a brighter future. This year, the City will be celebrating its 66th Anniversary as a municipal government agency.

The following is a brief summary of the history of the incorporation of Santa Fe Springs, as outlined in the publication, Images of America: Santa Fe Springs.

In the old days.... before there was a city called Santa Fe Springs…there was a place called Santa Fe Springs, but it was not a real city. It had no City Hall, no City Council elections and not a single municipal program. Long after World War II had ended, Santa Fe Springs was being operated as a part of Los Angeles County. Less than 500 scattered residents, outnumbered by the 600 oil derricks, called Santa Fe Springs home in 1949. There was no local shopping center or gas station. The mail they received was addressed to “Four Corners,” not Santa Fe Springs. Farmland, rather than freeways dominated the scene, and cows grazed where Los Nietos Park is today.

After decades of booms and busts, Santa Fe Springs was still just another town out in the country. But the place would not be out in the country very much longer. Los Angeles was growing with post war industries, and people moving in needed affordable housing. So rural areas like this one suddenly looked attractive. The first housing tract, Imperial Crest, built in 1949, was at King’s Camp, a eucalyptus grove that had shaded the shabby buildings and tents of a long-gone house of ill repute that thrived during the 1920s oil boom. By 1952, the population of the town ballooned to 8,000, and homes sold for around $13,000. But a new set of problems arose. Schools filled quickly, traffic was getting bad, and dirt roads needed to be paved faster than the County government was capable of paving them. A homeowners association was formed in 1952, and because of the obscurity of their location, it was originally called the Little Lake Homeowners Association. Later it would be renamed the Santa Fe Springs Homeowners Association.

RECOMMENDATION
• Council proclaim May 15, 2023 as Santa Fe Springs History Day.

ITEM NO. 10C
City Council Meeting May 2, 2023
Report Submitted By: Deborah Raia/Maricela Balderas Date of Report: April 27, 2023 Department of Community Services
City of Santa Fe Springs
To incorporate as a City, an election must be held, and a majority of the voters must agree to the formation of a municipal government. The debate over incorporation was fierce at times. Opponents of incorporation claimed that taxes would be raised to fund the new government.

When the election was held on May 15, 1957, Santa Fe Springs became a city by only a 5% margin of victory.

The first City election was held. The first City Council was made up of Betty Wilson, Bill McCann and John Moreno from the residential districts and William Emmons and Foy Lee Peak from industry. City Hall was located in an old house on Telegraph Road. The first City building constructed was the Library in 1961. A new City Hall followed in 1962.

Today, there are twenty eight municipal buildings providing a wide array of services that range from day camps and older adult services to public works and community development. The oil wells no longer outnumber the residents and Santa Fe Springs continues to be a great place to live, work, and play.

The Mayor may wish to call upon Deborah Raia, Library Services Manager, to assist with the presentation.

PRESENTATION
Proclaiming the month of May 2023 as “Older Americans Month” in the City of Santa Fe Springs

BACKGROUND
Every year since 1963, May has been the month to appreciate and celebrate the vitality and aspirations of older adults and their contributions and achievements. It is a proud tradition that shows our nation’s commitment to honor the value that elders continue to contribute to their communities.

This year’s Older Americans Month theme, “Aging Unbound,” is an opportunity to explore an array of aging experiences without being boxed in by expectations and stereotypes. It focuses on the positive aspects of growing older - why everyone has a role to play in combating ageism and how we all benefit when older adults remain engaged, independent, and included in their communities.

This May, communities across the nation will recognize older Americans as productive, active, and influential members of society. Communities that encourage the contributions of older adults are stronger. By engaging and supporting all community members, we recognize that older adults play a key role in the vitality of our neighborhoods, networks, and lives.

While Santa Fe Springs provides services, support, and resources to older adults year-round, Older Americans Month is a great opportunity to show special appreciation. We will continue to provide opportunities for elders to come together and share their experiences with one another, as well as with individuals of other generations.

The Mayor may wish to call members of the Senior Advisory Committee to accept the proclamation.
