CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members

FROM: René Bobadilla, P.E., City Manager

BY: Cuong Nguyen, Director of Community Development

SUBJECT: JOINT TRANSFER TAX (RESOLUTION NO. 9926)
DATE: August 22, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:
1) Consider adopting the attached Joint Tax Transfer (Resolution No. 9926); or 2) Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.

FISCAL IMPACT
The County CEO’s Office estimates the total tax increment loss for the City of Santa Fe Springs is $104.04 annually.

BACKGROUND
The City received a letter from the Los Angeles County Chief Executive Office requesting approval of a Joint Tax Transfer Resolution for Cemetery District Reorganization No. 2021-03, affecting the Artesia, Downey, and Little Lake Cemetery Districts.

Currently, these districts have complex boundaries that often divide cities and exclude unincorporated areas. The Local Agency Formation Committee (LAFCO), in collaboration with the districts, is proposing boundary adjustments to simplify these district maps and annex new areas not currently covered. A formal proposal was submitted to LAFCO on December 20, 2021, outlining the following changes:
• Artesia Cemetery District: To include Cerritos, Lakewood, Artesia, Hawaiian Gardens, and portions of Bellflower and Norwalk.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF AUGUST 22, 2024 Joint Transfer Tax (Resolution No. 9926)

Page 2 of 5 ends

• Downey Cemetery District: To include Downey, South Gate, Bell Gardens, Paramount and portions of Bellflower.sp
• Little Lake Cemetery District: To include La Mirada, Santa Fe Springs, most of Norwalk, and a large unincorporated area.

Detailed maps of the proposed annexations and reorganizations are attached to this staff report for reference (See Attachment B).

Generally, the revised districts would encompass entire cities. LAFCO asserts that the proposed boundaries offer clearer district definitions, enhancing public understanding.

The Joint Tax Transfer Resolution requires approval from the Board of Supervisors and affected cities, including Santa Fe Springs. If adopted, all of Santa Fe Springs would fall within the Little Lake Cemetery District. It currently includes only a portion of the city and generally south of Telegraph Road. The County CEO’s Office estimates minimal property tax loss to cities (approximately $104.04 annually to Santa Fe Springs), with no substantial overall impact

ANALYSIS
Not applicable.

ENVIRONMENTAL
Not applicable.

DISCUSSION
About four years ago, LAFCO initiated conversations amongst representatives of the three districts. The results of those meetings led to this proposal, which was filed with LAFCO by the Artesia Cemetery District on behalf of all three districts. LAFCO has indicated the proposal is supported by the three cemetery districts, as well as by Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn, who provided funding for the County’s Department of Public Works to prepare the maps and geographic descriptions required by LAFCO to accept an application. The proposal was filed with LAFCO on December 20, 2021. If the proposal is approved:
• The Artesia Cemetery District would include all of the City of Cerritos (it currently only has a portion); all of the City of Lakewood (it currently only has a portion); the southerly portion of the City of Bellflower, south of Alondra Boulevard (not currently within any cemetery district); as well as all of the City of Artesia, all of the City of Hawaiian Gardens, and the portion of the City of Norwalk south of Alondra Boulevard (all currently within the district’s existing boundary). • The Downey Cemetery District would include all of the City of Downey (it currently has only a portion, which includes a small part of the City of Downey CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF AUGUST 22, 2024 Joint Transfer Tax (Resolution No. 9926)

Page 3 of 5 ends

concurrently being detached from the Little Lake Cemetery District); all of the City of South Gate (it currently has only a very small portion); all of the City of Bell Gardens (not currently in any cemetery district); and the northerly portion of the City of Bellflower, north of Alondra Boulevard (it currently has a smaller, irregularlyshaped portion). • The Little Lake Cemetery District would include all of the City of La Mirada (it currently has only a portion); all of the City of Santa Fe Springs (it currently has only a portion of the city); all areas within the City of Norwalk north of Alondra Boulevard (currently a small portion of this area is outside the district); and a large, unincorporated generally between La Mirada and Santa Fe Springs (not currently within any cemetery district, and added at the request of Supervisor Hahn).

Overall, most of the territory within the three cemetery districts’ new boundaries would encompass entire cities. However, there are two exceptions: (1) the City of Bellflower, which would be divided between the districts north and south of Alondra Boulevard; and (2) the City of Norwalk, which remains split between two districts in the same manner as the current boundaries. The County CEO’s Office estimated in April 2023 that the potential property tax loss to cities resulting from this proposal is minimal ($104.04 annually to Santa Fe Springs) and would have no significant impact on any of the involved cities.

(B) The applicant shall sign an affidavit to acknowledge that the applicant is aware of and agrees to all of the requirements and conditions under which the approval of the Special Event Permit is given, and that if any of said requirements or conditions are violated, the approval shall become null and void.
(C) The approval by the Director of Community Development or designee, is considered final unless it is appealed within five (5) business days from the date of approval.
(D) Prior to the issuance of a Special Event Permit, the permit applicant or the authorized officer of the sponsoring organization must sign an agreement to reimburse the City of Santa Fe Springs for any costs incurred by it in repairing damage to City property occurring in connection with the permitted event and proximately caused by the actions of the permittee or sponsoring organization, its officers, employees, or agents or any person who was under the permittee's or sponsoring organization's control insofar as permitted by law.

(A) Considerations. The Director of Community Development, or designee, shall deny an application for a Special Event Permit only if he/she determines from a consideration of the application and other pertinent information that one or more of the following exists:
(1) The information contained in the application, or supplemental information requested from the applicant, is found to be materially false or misleading.
(2) The applicant fails to complete the application form after having been notified of the additional information or documents requested. (3) The Director of Community Development has earlier received an application to hold another event at the same time and place requested by the applicant, or so close in time and place as to cause undue traffic congestion, or police are unable to meet the needs for police services for both events. (4) The time, route or size of the event is reasonably likely to substantially interrupt the safe and orderly movement of traffic contiguous to the event site or route, or disrupt the use of a street at a time when it is usually subject to great traffic congestion.
(5) The concentration of persons, animals and vehicles at the site of the event, or the assembly and disbanding areas around an event, is reasonably likely to prevent proper police, fire or ambulance services to areas contiguous to the event.
(6) The event is likely large enough that it may require a significant number of police officers to ensure participants remain within the designated boundaries or route, or to protect them, which could impact the regular police coverage for the rest of the city. The location of the event is reasonably likely to substantially interfere with any construction or maintenance work scheduled to take place upon or along the City streets, or a previously granted encroachment permit.
(7) The event is reasonably likely to occur at a time when a school is in session, at a route or location adjacent to the school, and the noise created by the activities of the event would substantially disrupt the educational activities of the school.
(8) The event will violate public health or safety law or fail to conform with the requirements of law or duly established City Council policy. (9) The applicant demonstrates an inability or unwillingness to conduct an event pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Chapter or has failed to conduct a previously authorized or exempt event in accordance with law or the terms of a permit, or both.
(B) Conditional approvals. When the grounds for denial of an application for a Special Event Permit specified in subsections (A)(3) through (A)(10) of this Section can be corrected by altering the date, time, duration, route or location of the event, the Director of Community Development, or designee, instead of denying the application, shall conditionally approve the application pursuant to Section 119.008. The conditions imposed shall provide for only such modification of the applicant's proposed event as are necessary to achieve compliance with subsections (A)(3) through (A)(10) of this Section.
§ 119.10 INSURANCE.
(A) Liability insurance.
(1) The applicant or sponsor of an event must possess or obtain public liability insurance to protect against loss from liability imposed by law for damages on account of bodily injury or property damage arising from the event.

Such insurance shall name on the policy or by endorsement as additional insureds the City of Santa Fe Springs, its officers, employees and agents.

Insurance coverage must be maintained for the duration of the event. Coverage shall include, but is not limited to, a comprehensive general liability insurance policy issued by an insurance carrier approved by the City with minimum limits of $1,000,000.00 combined single limit bodily injury and property damage for each occurrence.
(2) If food or nonalcoholic beverages are sold or served at the event, the policy must also include an endorsement for products liability in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00. If alcoholic beverages are sold or served at the event, the policy must also include an endorsement for liquor liability in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00.
(3) If the event involves the use of licensed motorized vehicles, the policy must also include an endorsement for automobile liability in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00.
(B) Certificates of insurance. A copy of the policy or a certificate of insurance along with all necessary endorsements must be filed with the Director of Community Development no less than ten (10) business days before the date of the event unless the Director for good cause waives the filing deadline. The Special Event Permit shall not be issued by the Director until after the insurance policy or certificate of insurance along with the necessary endorsements have been filed by the applicant or sponsor and approved by the City.
§ 119.11 APPEAL AND EFFECTIVE DATE.
(A) An appeal of the decision made by the Director of Community Development, or designee, shall be made in writing and filed with the City Clerk. (B) Said appeal must be received within five (5) business days from the date of decision.
(C) The filing of an appeal within the prescribed time period shall have the effect of staying the effective date of the Director of Community Development or designee’s decision until such time as the City Council has acted on the appeal. (D) Each appeal shall be considered de novo (new) and the City Council may reverse, modify, or affirm the decision in regard to the entire project in whole or in part. In taking its action on the appeal, the City Council shall state the basis for its action. The City Council may approve (in full or in part), modify or deny (in full or in part), and may modify, delete, or add such conditions as it deems necessary. The City Council may also refer the matter back to the Director of Community Development for further action. (E) The decision of the City Council shall be final.
§ 119.12 SPECIAL SECURITY ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBMISSION OF SECURITY PLAN.

The applicant or sponsor of an event shall submit a plan setting forth the proposed security measures to be taken to protect the health, safety and welfare of the participants in the special event. The plan shall be submitted concurrently with the permit application to the Department of Police Services who may require the alteration of the plan to provide greater security measures including but not limited to the hiring of private security personnel and/or police officers at the applicant's expense as a condition of permit issuance.
§ 119.13 DEPARTMENTS OF FIRE-RESCUE AND/OR POLICE SERVICES REVIEW.

An official from the Departments of Fire-Rescue and/or Police Services may, after review of the scope of the event, determine that additional resources are required to ensure public safety. The official of each respective department will determine risks to participants, community impacts, and emergency support required to determine additional resources required as indicated by the Departments of Fire-Rescue and Police Services. Applicant will bear all related costs of expenses for such additional resources. § 119.14 SUSPENSION OR REVOCATION OF PERMIT.

§ 155.385 PURPOSE OF CHAPTER.

This chapter establishes uniform provisions for the regulation of nonconforming land uses, development (including structures and improvements), and lots that were lawfully established but do not comply with the current requirements of this chapter (“nonconforming situations”). The overall intent of this chapter is to protect public health, safety, and general welfare while allowing reasonable use of private property by:
(A) Limiting the number and extent of specific nonconforming uses and development that conflict with the provisions of this chapter by prohibiting their reestablishment after abandonment;
(B) Limiting the extent to which nonconforming uses and development that are involuntarily damaged or destroyed can be restored;
(C) Allowing for the continuation and maintenance of nonconforming uses and development until they are redeveloped;
(D) Establishing procedures and criteria for evaluating the allowable enlargement of specific nonconforming uses and development; and
(E) Limiting the alteration, enlargement, or relocation of nonconforming uses and development in a manner that would further increase the difference between existing nonconforming conditions and the current provisions of this Zoning Ordinance.
(F) Complying with the nonconforming use provision of the General Plan. § 155.386 NONCONFORMING SITUATIONS, APPLICABLE PROVISIONS. (A) So long as a nonconforming situation exists upon a site, such situation may continue without any time limitation on its continued presence, provided that such nonconforming situation complies with all applicable provisions of this chapter. (B) No new use or structure may be constructed, established, or installed on a site with a nonconforming situation except as allowed by this chapter. (C) In addition to the general requirements in §§ 155.387 through 155.390, properties with nonconforming situations are subject to the standards and procedures for each type of nonconforming situation that is applicable to that property. (1) Nonconforming lots are subject to § 155.391.
(2) Nonconforming developments (except nonconforming signs) are subject to § 155.392 and § 155.395.
(3) Nonconforming uses are subject to §§ 155.393 through 155.396. (4) Nonconforming signs are subject to § 155.397.
§ 155.387 EXCEPTIONS TO THIS CHAPTER.
(A) Public Utilities. The Director of Planning or designee, by written findings, may determine that a particular public utility facility or installation, nonconforming to the requirements of this chapter, is necessary to serve the areas in which it is located.

Said public utility facility may then be expanded or altered, provided:
(1) The facility does not extend beyond the boundaries of the existing site or of the site approved by the city for such use; and
(2) The addition, extension, or alteration complies with all other performance standards provisions of §§ 155.415 through 155.433.
(B) Uses Requiring Conditional Use Permits. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this chapter, no use identified in this Zoning Ordinance as a "conditional use" that was lawfully in existence as of the effective date of these regulations shall be deemed nonconforming solely by reason of the application of the Conditional Use Permit procedural requirements, in compliance with §§ 155.710 through 155.724; provided that:
(1) Use allowed with Conditional Use Permit approval. A land use that was legally established without a Conditional Use Permit, but which would be required under the current Zoning Ordinance provisions to have Conditional Use Permit approval, shall only be altered or enlarged in conformance with this chapter. (2) Use no longer allowed with Conditional Use Permit approval. A land use that was established with Conditional Use Permit approval, but which is no longer allowed with Conditional Use Permit approval by current Zoning Ordinance regulations, may continue in compliance with the original Conditional Use Permit. Such use may be expanded or altered only in conformance with this chapter.
§ 155.388 NONCONFORMING SITUATIONS, DEFINED.
(A) Uses or developments that were not lawfully established do not have a legal right to continue as nonconforming situations as defined by this chapter and must be removed immediately.
(B) Nonconforming situations shall have the following meanings:
(1) A nonconforming lot means a lot that was lawfully established but does not meet the requirements of the zone in which it is located. (2) A nonconforming development means a structure, building, or site improvement, such as an off-street parking facility, that was lawfully established in compliance with the applicable zoning regulations in effect at the time of construction but which no longer complies with the applicable development standards of the zone in which it is located, such as setbacks, buffers or yards, area, bulk, height, density, or parking. A structure, building, or site improvement shall be considered legally conforming, and not subject to this chapter, if the nonconformance was previously approved through a Variance, Modification, Conditional Use Permit or Development Plan Approval procedure, or is subsequently approved through a Conditional Use Permit procedure as per § 155.395.
(3) A nonconforming use means a use of land or a structure that was lawfully established in compliance with the applicable zoning regulations in effect at the time it was established but which no longer complies with the applicable regulations of the zone in which it is located. A use shall be considered legally conforming, and not subject to this chapter, if the nonconformance is subsequently approved through a Conditional Use Permit procedure as per § 155.395.
(C) When submitting a development application to expand a nonconforming situation or otherwise establish that a lot, use, or development is a legal nonconforming situation, the property owner or applicant must document that a nonconforming situation was legally established on its present site. The city, at the request of the property owner or applicant, will provide the property owner or applicant with all records to the extent they are in the city’s possession. Evidence that the situation was legally established shall depend upon the type of nonconforming situation, as follows.
(1) For nonconforming lots, the property owner or applicant must document when the lot was lawfully created in accordance with § 155.391. (2) For nonconforming development or nonconforming uses, the property owner or applicant must provide building, land use, or development permits. For development or uses that did not require a permit when lawfully established, the property owner or applicant must provide other evidence that clearly shows the date the development or use was established such as dated aerial photographs.
(3) In addition, for nonconforming uses, the property owner or applicant must document that the use has not been discontinued for a period of more than eighteen (18) months, except that retail uses shall not have been discontinued for a period of more than twenty-four (24) consecutive months consistent with § 155.394.
§ 155.389 INTENTIONAL DEMOLITION OR DESTRUCTION.

Any nonconforming use or development dependent upon a building or structure that has been declared a “public nuisance” and ordered demolished pursuant to Santa Fe Springs Municipal Code § 95.07 will lose its nonconforming status upon that notice unless the nuisance is abated in accordance with that section. Nonconforming uses or nonconforming developments that have been intentionally destroyed by the owner shall lose their legal nonconforming status.
§ 155.390 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ALL NONCONFORMING SITUATIONS.

The following provisions shall apply to all nonconforming uses, structures, and lots existing as of the effective date of this chapter:
(A) The nonconforming status of a lot, development, or use shall not be affected by changes in ownership or tenancy; and
(B) Except as specified herein, a nonconforming situation must maintain compliance with any and all conditions of approval previously established through prior land use reviews.
§ 155.391 NONCONFORMING LOTS.
(A) Determination of nonconforming status. A nonconforming lot of record that does not comply with the current access, area, or dimensional requirements for the zoning district in which it is located shall be considered to be a legal building site if it meets one of the criteria specified by this section. The applicant shall be responsible for providing sufficient evidence to establish the applicability of one or more of the following to the satisfaction of the city.
(1) Approved subdivision. The lot was created through a subdivision approved by the city or the county, before incorporation.
(2) Variance, modification permit, or lot line adjustment. The lot was approved through the variance procedure (§§ 155.670 through 155.682), the modification procedure (§§ 155.690 through 155.702), or its current configuration resulted from a lot line adjustment.
(3) Partial government acquisition. The lot was created in conformity with the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance but was made nonconforming when a portion of the lot was acquired by a governmental entity. (4) Individual lot otherwise legally created. The lot was legally created before the effective date of the chapter that made the lot nonconforming. (B) Further subdivision prohibited. Where structures have been erected on a nonconforming lot, the lot may not be later subdivided, nor can lot lines be altered through a lot line adjustment.
§ 155.392 NONCONFORMING DEVELOPMENT.
(A) Nonconforming Development, Generally. A nonconforming development may be maintained, repaired, improved, altered, remodeled and continued, and is not subject to the requirements in § 155.395, provided any such maintenance, repair, improvement, alteration or remodeling work does not increase its nonconformity with the applicable standards of the Zoning Ordinance. A nonconforming development that houses one or more nonconforming uses shall also be subject to the provisions of this chapter applicable to nonconforming uses. (B) Expansions of a Nonconforming Development.
(1) Except as specified in §§ 155.392(B)(2) through (B)(6), a nonconforming development or portion thereof may be expanded, and is not subject to the requirements of § 155.395, if the proposed expansion:
(a) Satisfies all of the applicable current requirements of the Zoning Ordinance; and
(b) Does not increase its nonconformity with the applicable standards of the Zoning Ordinance, except as allowed by § 155.395.
(2) Developments that are nonconforming only in regard to required distances between buildings may be expanded in accordance with the following:
(a) Provided that any expansions must not encroach into the required distances between buildings to a greater extent than the existing structure;
(b) The encroachment of said expansions must not exceed one-half of the width of the required distances between buildings; and
(c) Complies with all applicable requirements of the California Fire Code and Building Code.
(3) Structures that are nonconforming only in regard to height may be expanded, provided that any expansions must conform to the height regulations and to all other provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
(4) For developments that are nonconforming as to the regulations relating to offstreet parking and loading facilities, such uses may be continued in the same manner as if the parking and loading facilities were conforming, except as needed to comply with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and any applicable state or local disability access statute. However, such parking and loading facilities as do exist may not be further reduced with respect to number provided, dimensions, and any other relevant requirement. No increase in the intensity of use of any building, structure, or premises through the addition of dwelling units, floor area, seating capacity, or other units of measurement specified in the Zoning Ordinance shall be permitted except in accordance with the following requirements:
(a) Suitable substitutions are made that would meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
(b) For residential dwellings with one parking space in a garage or carport, the intensity of use may be increased up to 60% in floor area without requiring a second parking space in a garage or carport. (5) Sheet-metal buildings that are nonconforming only in regard to sheet-metal siding or Quonset-type construction may be altered, added to, or enlarged, provided that any alterations, additions, or enlargements must conform to all of the provisions and regulations of the Zoning Ordinance. (6) A nonconforming development may be altered or enlarged so as to further decrease the difference between existing conditions and the current applicable development standards in this chapter.
(C) Damage or Partial Destruction of a Nonconforming Development. When a nonconforming development is damaged or partially destroyed by fire or other causes not caused by the intentional misconduct of a property owner or person acting on the owner’s behalf, it may be rebuilt in-kind within the footprint of the damaged or destroyed improvement and any existing nonconforming use of the development may continue, provided:
(1) The cost of repair or reconstruction does not exceed 75% of the appraised value or replacement value of the building or structure, whichever is higher.

The determination of the appraised value shall be made by a professional appraiser approved by the city, whose fee shall be paid by the building owner.

If the cost of repair or reconstruction exceeds 75% of the appraised value or replacement value, whichever is higher, the development may not be rebuilt, except in full conformance with the current provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
(2) Replacement Value Calculation. The extent of damage or partial destruction shall be determined by comparing the estimated cost of restoring the structure to its condition before the damage or partial destruction based on current Building and Fire Code requirements to the estimated cost of duplicating the entire structure, also based on current Building and Fire Code standards, as it existed before the damage or destruction occurred. Estimates for this purpose shall be reviewed and approved by the Building Official. (3) Any reconstruction, restoration, or rebuilding undertaken pursuant to this section shall conform to all applicable Building and Fire Code requirements, provided that an application for a building permit is submitted within eighteen (18) months after the date of the damage or destruction, and the construction is diligently pursued to completion. This time period shall be extended if the property owner can provide evidence, to the satisfaction of the Building Official, that delays due to insurance or other circumstances beyond the control of the property owner, as verified by the Building Official, prevent meeting the 18-month time frame.
(4) The replacement improvements shall not increase the degree of nonconformity beyond that of the previously existing improvements, as determined by the Building Official.
(D) Roadway Access. The owner of a nonconforming driveway approach or access to a public street or highway, upon receiving land use or development plan approval, may be required as a condition of approval to bring the nonconforming access into conformance with city standards.
§ 155.393 NONCONFORMING USES
(A) Except as specified in § 155.393(B), a nonconforming use may be maintained, repaired, improved, altered, internally remodeled and continued, provided there is no material expansion of the floor area occupied by or devoted to the nonconforming use, except as allowed by this chapter.
(B) Whenever any of the following facts are found to exist with reference to a nonconforming use, the nonconforming protection/benefits provided by this chapter shall cease except as otherwise allowed by this chapter:
(1) The license or permit that is required to operate the nonconforming use has been revoked or terminated; or
(2) There has been a violation of the provisions of this chapter regarding change of use, alteration, or expansion of the nonconforming use. (C) A nonconforming use may be changed to a conforming use, provided that any part of a structure or land occupied by a nonconforming use that is changed to or replaced by a conforming use shall not again be used or occupied by a nonconforming use.
(D) The area, space, or volume occupied by or devoted to a nonconforming use may be increased pursuant to § 155.395.
§ 155.394 DISCONTINUATION OF NONCONFORMING USE.

Except as provided in §§ 155.394(C) through (E) a nonconforming use that is discontinued for a period of more than eighteen (18) consecutive months, or twenty-four (24) consecutive months for retail uses, shall be deemed abandoned and shall no longer be allowed as a legal nonconforming use. For purposes of calculating the discontinuation time period, a use is discontinued on a site when any one of the following conditions occur:
(1) The use no longer physically occupies the site;
(2) The use ceases operation. For example, the site is no longer actively in use for the sale of merchandise, the manufacture or warehousing of products, or the provision of services, as evidenced by the removal of signs, goods, stock, or office equipment, or the disconnection of telephone or utility service or similar indications;
(3) A request for final reading of water and power meters is made to the applicable utility or the utility bill account indicates inactivity for the site; (4) The use ceases operation as a result of damage or destruction by fire or other causes and an application for a building permit for the reconstruction or repair has not been submitted within 18 months after the date of destruction, subject to the extensions under § 155.392(C)(3); and/or
(5) An event occurs similar to those listed in § 155.394(A)(1) – (4), above, as determined by the Director of Planning or designee.
(B) Application of Criteria and Standards to Nonconforming Use. Once the Director of Planning or designee deems a nonconforming use abandoned pursuant to § 155.394(A) and issues such determination in writing, any subsequent use of the subject lot must conform to the current standards and criteria of the Zoning Ordinance applicable to the use. After the city has deemed a nonconforming use abandoned, the use shall not be allowed to resume, in whole or in part, under the same or different ownership or management; any such activity is a violation of this chapter and subject to enforcement proceedings.
(C) Adult Businesses. Nonconforming adult businesses are subject to the provisions in § 155.603.
(D) Oil and gas wells. Idle wells as defined by the California Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) are subject to the provisions of the State of California's idle well regulations.

Such decision shall be issued in writing.
(3) The decision of the Planning Commission may be appealed to the City Council in accordance with § 155.866.
(4) The nonconforming use may continue while it is being appealed until a final decision is made by the Planning Commission or City Council, as applicable. (5) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Planning Commission or City Council, as applicable, may grant, at their discretion, an extension of the discontinuation time period described in Section 155.394(A) of up to eighteen (18) months.

Factors that the Planning Commission or City Council upon appeal may consider in determining to grant the extension include building permits, functioning utility hookups, tax records, business licenses, lease agreements, business receipts, and/or similar documentation, as well as economic and market factors.
§ 155.395 NONCONFORMING SITUATIONS REVIEW - PROCEDURES FOR EXPANDING OR CHANGING A NONCONFORMING SITUATION ON A SITE.

Except for adult businesses, which are subject to § 155.396, and signs, which are subject to § 155.397, material expansions or changes of a nonconforming situation (as defined in Section 155.395(D)) will be processed as a conditional use as established in §§ 155.710 through 155.724 and subject to the applicable review criteria in this section.

The Planning Commission shall also consider the following in connection with a request for such a Conditional Use Permit:
(A) The nonconforming situation was not created unlawfully.

(C) With mitigation measures or through conditions of approval, the nonconforming use or material expansion will comply with the performance standards in §§ 155.415 through 155.433 and will not result in a net increase in overall adverse impacts (over the impacts of the existing use) on the surrounding area, taking into account factors such as:
(1) Noise, vibration, dust, odor, fumes, glare, and smoke; (2) Potential for increased litter;
(3) The amount, location, and nature of any outside displays, storage, or activities;
(4) The appearance of the new or expanded use will not detract from the existing or anticipated function and character of the zoning district; (5) The operating characteristics of the new or expanded use are compatible with the existing and anticipated uses in the immediate vicinity. The hours of operation of nonresidential uses in residential zoning districts cannot be extended into the period of 10 p.m. to 7 a.m.;
(6) If the proposed change to the nonconforming situation will result in an increase in vehicular trips, the street system shall have adequate capacity to accommodate the use, as determined by the Director of Public Works and/or Traffic Engineer following completion of a traffic study by the applicant; (7) If the proposed change to the nonconforming situation will result in an increase in vehicle parking demand, the site shall have adequate on-site parking to accommodate the development, or adequate parking will be provided in accordance with § 155.480;
(8) Parking areas and entrance-exit points are designed to facilitate traffic and pedestrian safety and avoid congestion; and
(9) Public services for water, sanitary sewer, stormwater, water management, and fire and police protection can serve the proposed use, as determined by the responsible city authorities.

(1) The cumulative total of all floor area expansions shall be measured against the floor area as it existed on the date the nonconformity began. (2) Expansions of up to 15% shall be considered minor and shall not require approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
(3) Expansions that exceed 15% shall be considered material and require a Conditional Use Permit.
(4) Floor area may be expanded multiple times, however, floor area expansions that exceed the cumulative total of 15% shall be at the discretion of the Planning Commission as part of the Conditional use Permit process in compliance with this § 155.395.
(5) Expansions in floor area for nonconforming situations must comply with current development standards for the zoning district in which the use or structure is located.
(6) Expansion of a nonconforming use onto another site shall only be permitted if the abutting parcel is under the same ownership as the parcel supporting the nonconforming use and in compliance with this § 155.395. (7) Addition of new residential units to nonconforming residential use is prohibited unless otherwise permitted under state law.
(E) Nonconforming Use Expansions in Residential Areas. If the nonconforming use is in a residential zoning district or in a mixed-use zoning district with residential uses adjacent to the site, the proposed expansion shall be designed and constructed to minimize the impact on the established residential character of the area, as determined by the Director of Planning. This determination shall be based on, but not limited to, the following factors:
(1) Building scale and placement;
(2) Exterior building treatments;
(3) Parking area placement;
(3) Buffering and the potential loss of privacy to abutting residential uses; (4) Location of loading and refuse storage/collection areas; (5) Outdoor storage (where permitted); and

CITY OF SANTA FE SPRINGS

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members

FROM: René Bobadilla, P.E., City Manager

BY: Cuong Nguyen, Director of Community Development

SUBJECT: BUDGET REVISION – HOUSING ELEMENT OVERAGES
DATE: August 22, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:
1) Approve a revision to the original Targeted Zoning Code Amendments budget to cover time and material needed to address the California Housing and Community Development (HCD) comments on the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element; and 2) Additional appropriation in the amount of $18,000 to cover the overages for the additional work needed to address HCD comments; and
3) Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.

FISCAL IMPACT
Staff seeks approval for an additional appropriation of $18,000 to Account No. 10103199- 542050 from the General Fund to cover the remaining work required to address California Housing and Community Development (HCD)’s comments on the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element.

With this adjustment, the total project cost for the Targeted Zoning Code Amendments project, including Housing Element revisions, is estimated to be $165,800.

BACKGROUND
On February 8, 2022, the City Council adopted the 2040 General Plan, the City’s first comprehensive general plan update in over 25 years. The 2040 General Plan introduced new land use designations such as mixed-use and high-density residential. Following the General Plan update, the General Plan team completed a Targeted Zoning Code CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF AUGUST 22, 2024 Budget Revision – Housing Element Overages

Page 2 of 5 ends

Amendment to ensure consistency between the newly updated General Plan and the Zoning Code, which was adopted on August 15, 2023.

Key components of the Targeted Zoning Code Amendment included:
 Establishment of standards for the three new Mixed-Use Zone Districts (MU, MU-TOD, and MU-DT);
 Establishment of standards for the new Multiple-Family/High Density Residential Zone District (R-4);
 Modification of existing standards for the Multiple-Family/Medium Density Residential Zone District (R-3), allowing for a maximum of 25 dwelling units per acre;
 Incorporation of Objective Development Standards into the newly established zones;
 Assessment and revision of multiple-family parking standards and policies to accurately reflect the parking needs of different types of affordable housing, transit-oriented projects, and downtown developments;  Ensuring compliance with AB 2162 (Supportive Housing Streamlining Act) and AB 101 (Low-Barrier Navigation Centers); and
 Updating the Zoning Map to ensure consistency with the General Plan land use map.

Many of the Targeted Zoning Code Amendments were necessary to satisfy the requirements of the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element. However, the budget shortfall is primarily due to several subsequent reviews by HCD that were not anticipated in the original budget.

While staff is pleased to report that conditional approval from HCD was recently received, this approval came after five rounds of revisions. The estimated overages are directly attributed to the extensive revisions required to secure this conditional approval.

ANALYSIS
Not applicable.

ENVIRONMENTAL
Not applicable.

DISCUSSION
The revisions to the Housing Element is component of a broader project aimed at amending the City’s Zoning Code to ensure consistency with the 2040 General Plan.

SUBJECT: ON-CALL PROFESSIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING
SERVICES – AWARD OF CONTRACT TO ECORP, ECOTIERRA, EPD
SOLUTIONS, SAGECREST PLANNING+ENVIRONMENTAL, T&B

PLANNING, AND UES
DATE: August 22, 2024
RECOMMENDATION(S):

It is recommended that the City Council:
1) Approve the Professional Services Agreements with ECORP, EcoTierra, EPD Solutions, Sagecrest Planning+Environmental, T&B Planning, and UES for OnCall Professional Environmental Consulting Services; and 2) Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with executing Professional Services Agreements (“PSA”) for on-call environmental consulting services. Specific environmental services would be dependent on each project, and the cost would be borne by the project applicant as a pass-through cost. For City-initiated projects, the affected City department would be able to use the panel subject to the purchasing procedures.

BACKGROUND
On March 5, 2024, the City Council authorized the Director of Community Development to advertise a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for on-call environmental consulting services. The City released the RFQ on March 12, 2024, with a scope that included preparing initial studies and environmental assessments in conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

• Project Team and Subconsultants: Has provided all team member resumes with appropriate information, project experience noted, and qualifications noted. • Client Reference Checks: Satisfaction of prior/current clients, professional reputation of the firm, experience working with cities.

Based on staff’s evaluation of the proposals, six consultants are recommended to provide on-call environmental services for the City: ECORP, EcoTierra, EPD Solutions, Sagecrest Planning+Environmental, T&B Planning, and UES.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney’s office has prepared the Professional Services Agreements (PSA).

ANALYSIS
The pre-qualification of environmental consultants for environmental consulting services would assist staff in completing environmental review and documentation in a timely and efficient manner.

ENVIRONMENTAL
N/A
DISCUSSION:

The City recommends entering into a contract with six firms for a three-year term, with an option to extend the term by an additional two years. Once the PSAs are executed, the consultants will be utilized as needed and will be chosen for a project dependent upon project need and firm expertise. The firms will be called upon to prepare initial studies and environmental assessments, and peer review documents submitted by applicants. In addition to preparation of the CEQA documents themselves, the consultants (or their subconsultants) may be asked to prepare supporting studies or technical analyses, or to peer review applicant-provided technical studies in a range of areas, including but not limited to aesthetics, air quality, biological and cultural resource evaluation, noise, traffic/transportation, and geotechnical and hydrological analysis.

B – BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE
B.1 Understanding of the City and the Scope of Services Based on the City’s RFQ we understand that a limited number of qualified firms will be called upon to provide technical assistance in preparing initial studies and environmental assessments, and peer review of applicants’ environmental documents. All services shall be performed on an as-needed, project-by-project basis pursuant to a request from the City, with no guarantee that any minimum number of services will be requested.

ECORP Consulting, Inc. (ECORP) understands that the City of Santa Fe Springs intends to select firms that have the technical expertise and experience to be able to provide the full array of services typically involved in preparation of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) documents, which may include but are not limited to: Environmental Impact Reports, Initial Studies/Negative or Mitigated Negative Declarations, Addenda, and Notices of Exemption. We understand that the City expects the selected firm(s) to be familiar with all aspects of CEQA, relevant regulatory frameworks of responsible federal, state, and local agencies, and with the City of Santa Fe Springs’ General Plan, Municipal Code, and other relevant planning documents.

We also understand that the firm (or their subconsultants) may be asked to prepare supporting reports/technical analyses or provide peer review services. All services shall be performed on an asneeded, project-by-project basis pursuant to a request from the City, with no guarantee that any minimum number of services will be requested. The initial contract term under this RFQ shall be three (3) years. Upon mutual agreement of the parties, the contract may be extended for two (2) years up to one (1) time, for a total of five (5) years.

B.2 Description of Primary Firm (ECORP Consulting, Inc.) ECORP has prepared the full range of environmental documents relevant to City needs and can prepare or provide third-party peer review services for technical studies in support of the following document types:
♦ CEQA Compliance
• EIRs
• IS/MNDs
• Categorical and Statutory Exemptions
• NEPA Compliance
♦ Environmental Impact Statements (EISs)
• Environmental Assessments (EAs)
• Categorical Exclusions
♦ A variety of joint CEQA/NEPA documents
Statement of Qualifications for the City of Santa Fe Springs For On-Call Professional Environmental Consulting Services April 16, 2024  2
(P24-167)
ECORP’s environmental documentation and compliance experience includes the full range of CEQA and NEPA documents and experience with the regulatory requirements of Sections 401, 402, and 404 of the Clean Water Act; Sections 7 and 10 of the Endangered Species Act; California Endangered Species Act; Sections 106 and 110 of the NHPA; Section 1600-1616 of the California Fish and Game Code; and the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act. As stated earlier we have well-established working relationships with regulatory agency staff including USACE, USFWS, CDFW, RWQCB, and the California Coastal Commission. These agencies recognize our permit application documents to be of the highest quality based on our consistent technical excellence and thorough understanding of regulatory processes. Specifically, we are experienced with the regulatory requirements of:
♦ Federal Clean Water Act (CWA) – Sections 401, 402, and 404 ♦ Federal Endangered Species Act – Sections 7 and 10
♦ California Endangered Species Act – Section 2081
♦ California Fish and Game Code – Section 1602
♦ California Coastal Act and Coastal Zone Management Act Additionally, ECORP is experienced with compliance requirements of the National Historic Preservation Act, Sections 106 and 110, that frequently are triggered by federal permit processes such as that under CWA Section 404. Our NEPA agency experience also includes documents for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant program and various affordable housing funding, Department Water Resources (DWR) CEQA Plus requirements for Environmental Protection Agency grant funding, Bureau of Land Management projects, and Caltrans Local Assistance projects.

ECORP has a long history of working on various types of projects for city planning, county planning, development services departments, engineering and public works departments, transportation departments, parks and recreation departments, water districts, special districts, and state agencies, including Caltrans. ECORP has a dedicated department of environmental analysts who provide comprehensive management of environmental impact documentation, as required under CEQA and NEPA. The experience of ECORP’s managers ranges from simple CEQA Categorical Exemptions and NEPA Categorical Exclusions for minor upgrades to facilities and infrastructure and affordable housing projects to complex CEQA EIRs and NEPA EISs for Specific Plans and everything in-between.

During initial project planning, ECORP professionals work closely with agency planners and engineers to identify the environmental constraints for the project and to develop avoidance measures, if feasible. We then determine the appropriate CEQA/NEPA documents, conduct the necessary technical studies and scoping meetings, prepare the CEQA/NEPA documents, and assist the agency in mitigation implementation.

ECORP is highly experienced with as-needed contract arrangements that require our staff to act as an extension of public agency staff, as we would do under this contract with the City of Santa Fe Springs. ECORP’s current work and recent experience with public agencies throughout California, and Statement of Qualifications for the City of Santa Fe Springs For On-Call Professional Environmental Consulting Services April 16, 2024  3
(P24-167)
specifically in southern California and Los Angeles County, provide us with the skills to successfully manage the City as-needed contract. This experience enables us to efficiently and thoroughly evaluate each project to determine the level of effort and expertise required, the appropriate environmental documents or technical reports that will be necessary, and the cost and schedule for completing the project.

ECORP regularly provides review of applicant-prepared technical studies for our agency clients. We understand that our role is to ensure that the City’s decisionmakers can rely on the information and conclusions in the technical studies to support the CEQA determination for the project. As a general approach, the technical studies provided by the applicant will be reviewed by senior staff familiar with local resources to determine if the studies are adequately prepared and suitable for incorporation into a CEQA document. In general, the reports will be reviewed to ensure that all elements of the project have been evaluated (including any required offsite improvements), that surveys and other analyses (e.g., air/greenhouse gas emissions, noise, or traffic modeling) have been conducted in accordance with accepted agency or industry protocols, and whether proposed mitigation has nexus to anticipated impacts and will be effective in reducing impacts. The reports/ studies will be reviewed to determine if appropriate standard methods and applicable agency protocols were used to complete the studies. Requirements for additional studies or analyses, if applicable, will be noted in the review.

Conclusions, impact significance thresholds, recommendations, and mitigation measures will be reviewed for technical adequacy and to determine if they are in conformance with CEQA guidelines.

Any identified mitigation measures recommended to avoid potential impacts or reduce them to a less than significant level will be reviewed for adequacy and feasibility. The review of the impacts analysis sections will determine whether all potential impacts to the respective resources have been addressed, including direct and indirect impacts from project construction and implementation, as well as any necessary off-site improvements. Comments on the reports/studies will be submitted electronically, in either letter report format or in a Peer Review Matrix table.

ECORP’s Experience in Preparing or Reviewing Environmental Documents ECORP has held more than 60 on-call contracts in the past 10 years and has completed more than 400 associated task orders. We have proven and successful on-call contract working relationships with a range of Southern California public agencies acting as extension of staff. Table B.1 provides examples of our clients with on-call services contracts.

Division
ECORP has the capability to conduct environmental review services for a variety of future development project proposals submitted by private developers. The projects would require the preparation of a CEQA documentation, which would be supported by applicant-prepared technical studies, technical studies and analysis prepared by ECORP or its subcontractors, or readily available information (e.g., the General Plan EIR, soil studies). If applicant-prepared technical studies are provided, ECORP or its subcontractors will review these studies to determine if they adequately describe the conditions on the site and can be relied upon for the analysis in the CEQA document.

ECORP’s thorough Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) program will ensure that all deliverables are free of errors. The QA/QC program includes the review of technical reports, as well as assessments of the accuracy of scopes of work, cost estimates, schedules, invoices, technical surveys, the protocols used to conduct those surveys, and data analyses. The QA/QC program is the same for each of the types of services required by the contract, in that the Program Manager oversees the entire contract, is primary point-of-contact for the City, approves the scope of work, schedule, and cost estimate for each ECORP assignment (task order), ensures the appropriate resources are available and committed to each task order, and performs the final reviews on reports and invoices.

When a task order is received from the City, the Program Manager will assign a Task Manager. The Task Manager will assemble the ECORP team from in-house CEQA and technical experts, depending on the nature of resources required for that task order. The task order will be placed on the Master Schedule by the Program Manager and will be assigned a number in ECORP’s accounting software by the Project Accountant.

The Task Manager will be responsible for developing an outline for the appropriate type of report required to fulfill the scope of work and this outline will be reviewed by the Program Manager. The Task Manager will ensure that the appropriate staff has been assigned to write the report and that they are aware of the schedule. The Task Manager will be the first person to review the report for content and accuracy. Following the Task Manager’s review, the Program Manager, in the role of internal technical editor and peer reviewer, will review the document for completeness and provide comments back to the Task Manager. After those are incorporated, the report will be submitted to the publications department for formatting.

Statement of Qualifications for the City of Santa Fe Springs For On-Call Professional Environmental Consulting Services April 16, 2024  5
(P24-167)
The Task Manager will be responsible for ensuring that the report moves through publications and editing per the proposed schedule and that the graphics are complete and accurate. Once the report has been assembled as a preliminary draft, then the Program Manager will review the report for accuracy and completeness. After it has been approved by the Program Manager, it will be submitted as a draft to the City. Incorporation of the City’s comments will be the responsibility of the Task Manager. Following the incorporation of their comments, the Program Manager will do one final review of the final report prior to its submittal to the City.

The quality control review also includes a review of the project accounting reports that are provided monthly, the invoices, and the cumulative project accounting for the on-call task orders. To ensure that the City has accurate information regarding the accounting for the project, the Program Manager will actively work with ECORP’s accounting department to set up Excel spreadsheets that keep track of each of the task orders, the amount authorized, the amount paid, and the amount remaining in the task order and cumulatively in the entire project. Invoices are prepared by our accounting staff and checked for accuracy by the Program Manager. The Program Manager will approve the cumulative accounting table and the task order entries and perform final review of all the invoices for the task orders. If discrepancies are found, the Program Manager will actively work with the accounting department to correct any problems. ECORP’s staffing and resources plan for a typical project is provided in Table B.2 below.

B.3 ECORP’s Ability to Handle Various Potential Environmental Projects
ECORP’s overall approach is to provide environmental compliance services that meet the following goals:
♦ Concise, well-written technical documents that analyze environmental issues and provide feasible mitigation measures agreed upon by City staff
♦ High-quality CEQA and NEPA documents that are easily understandable by the public and decision makers and meet the requirements of outside agencies, if needed (e.g., Caltrans) ♦ Delivery of services on time and within budget
ECORP has long-term experience with on-call services contracts through our staff’s history of performing on these types of contracts with public agencies. Our staff enjoys working on task-orderbased on-call contracts because we establish an efficient working relationship with our client that allows us to act as a virtually seamless extension of the public agency’s staff. This type of arrangement ensures that the contract and the various task orders and projects under the contract run smoothly. Our staff is particularly experienced with quick response times to task order requests, short lead times for mobilizing field teams and for completing fieldwork, and strict schedules for completing the reports. In addition, our professionals adapt easily to the various report formats required by our public agency clients.

B.4 Legal Challenges
None of ECORP’s documents have been legally challenged in court.

B.5 Management for On-Call Contracts
Project Management
ECORP will provide a proven technical and management
approach that will ensure responsive delivery of services.

Our technical approach includes providing the City with the local and technical expertise necessary to provide
efficient and effective consulting services. We have
thoughtfully developed a team that will meet all of the needs on this contract, including technical specialists that not only know standard procedures for completing their
work but that can readily provide the appropriate support, level of expertise, and innovative methods for more unusual situations. The discussion below focuses on ECORP’s management approach to asneeded contracts.

ECORP includes a dedicated Program Manager (PM), Freddie Olmos, whose top priority is to respond to the City on a day-to-day basis and provide the flexibility and dedication needed to be successful.

ECORP’s management and
technical approach to asneeded services contracts has
been successfully used on over
60 contracts in the last 10 years.

Statement of Qualifications for the City of Santa Fe Springs For On-Call Professional Environmental Consulting Services April 16, 2024  7
(P24-167)
ECORP has also included a QA/QC Manager, Anne Surdzial, AICP, who will ensure that all products from the ECORP Team meet regulatory requirements and are of the highest quality. Each discipline has been assigned a Task Manager, so that these specialists are dedicated to City projects and are available for each task order as required.

Task Orders
When the City requests that ECORP provide a proposal for a new task order, ECORP will work closely with the City’s Project Manager to focus the scope of work to achieve the goals of the project.

Freddie Olmos will then evaluate the services required and determine which, if any, subconsultant services will be necessary for the completion of the task. A detailed scope of work, schedule, and costs will be developed and provided to the City. Our proposals will include sufficient detail to assure the City that ECORP has incorporated the appropriate services, and that the City will receive a quality product that can stand up to agency and public scrutiny.

Communication
Maintaining constant communication with our team members assigned to a task as well as with the City is important so that any emerging issues are brought to the PM’s attention, and solutions can promptly be developed and implemented. If an unexpected delay or issue arises (e.g., inaccessibility to a site, flooding) that could affect the schedule, the PM will immediately alert the City and work with the City to resolve the issues. There will be no project-related communications with other agencies, resident engineers, construction personnel, and/or the public without prior authorization from the City’s project management staff. Communication methods typically include, but are not limited to, email, phone, video conferencing, and face-to-face meetings (including Planning Commission and/or City Council, as needed). Freddie Olmos and/or Task Managers will coordinate and facilitate regular meetings with project teams and the City. This includes developing an agenda and following up with complete minutes that detail accomplished tasks, upcoming tasks, pending issues, and scheduled completion target dates. These minutes will be used to develop progress reports, if appropriate to the task. Scopes will be continually monitored to ensure they meet the City’s purpose and need.

Quality Assurance Program
ECORP has a very thorough QA/QC program that
includes the review of both technical reports and
administrative documents. For this contract, Anne
Surdzial, AICP has been assigned as QA/QC Manager.

The technical Task Manager will be the first person to
review reports for content and accuracy. Following
the Task Manager’s review, ECORP’s technical editors
and QA/QC Manager, in the role of internal technical
editor and peer reviewer, will review the document for
ECORP's mission is to consistently
deliver high-quality environmental
consulting services through
outstanding science and timely,
creative solutions for our clients,
while providing an excellent work
environment for our staff.

(P24-167)
completeness and provide comments back to the technical Task Manager. After those are incorporated, the report will be submitted to the production department for formatting. The Task Manager and Anne Surdzial will be responsible for ensuring that the report moves through production and editing according to the schedule and that the graphics are complete and accurate.

Once the report has been assembled as a preliminary draft, Freddie Olmos will review the report for accuracy and completeness. After Freddie Olmos has approved the report, it will be submitted as a draft to the City. Following the incorporation of City comments by the Task Manager, Mr. Olmos will do one final review of the final report prior to its submittal to the City.

All products (e.g., reports) provided by any of our subconsultants will be reviewed by the Task Manager, QA/QC Manager, and Mr. Olmos to ensure accuracy and appropriate documentation regarding the project specifics.

The QA/QC program also includes reviews of the accuracy of administrative documents such as scopes of work, cost estimates, schedules, and invoices. Freddie Olmos will oversee the entire contract; approve the scope of work, schedules, and cost estimates; ensure the appropriate resources are available and committed to each task order; and perform the final reviews on reports and invoices. The quality control review also includes a review of the project accounting reports that are provided on a monthly basis, the invoices, and the cumulative project accounting for the as-needed task orders. Under this program, the PM will oversee the invoicing from and the payment to the subconsultants. The PM will verify that the services have been completed at the level of quality that is expected prior to paying the subconsultants. In addition, the PM will verify that the invoicing is correct and will work with the subconsultants to get their invoices in on time with the correct project and contract references.

ECORP is committed to excellent service and client satisfaction. To ensure the success of our clients’ projects, we use a combination of well-tested practices. We build the best team for the job, drawing from our own professionals and a large network of relationships with other technical and scientific experts. We use a carefully honed project management approach based on a client-focused, responsive, and results-driven philosophy. We implement real quality control provided by seasoned technical professionals as peer reviewers and editors.

B.6 Client Satisfaction
Firm’s Approach to Project Delays
ECORP places a high priority on developing and managing the project schedule. Our approach emphasizes:
♦ Determining resource needs – Looking at similar projects, researching data on specific activities, consulting with PMs of similar projects.
♦ Selecting the right schedule for type and complexity of project – Use Excel to create a Milestone or Gantt chart for simple projects or Microsoft Project to produce a CPM schedule.

♦ Disseminating the project schedule – Provide the schedule to project team, principal-in-charge and senior management, and client; review the schedule during project kickoff meeting, post it on project SharePoint site, attach it to a project execution plan. ♦ Manage the schedule – By tracking planned against actual progress and using Schedule Compression as necessary to complete the project on time.

In the unlikely event of a schedule delay caused by ECORP, the project manager can shorten the time durations in the project schedule using several methods: ‘Crashing’ – adding qualified staff from other southern California offices or other resources to shorten the time required for a task; Fast Tracking – performing tasks in parallel that were to be done in sequence; Modified Fast Tracking – splitting tasks so that a subsequent task can begin early. These schedule compression techniques can be used by ECORP singularly or in combination to bring a project back on schedule at no additional cost to the City.

 Puente Hills Master Plan Program EIR (PEIR). ECORP prepared a PEIR to identify and evaluate the potential environmental impacts associated with the implementation of the Puente Hills Landfill Park Master Plan (Proposed Project). The Proposed Project entails planning for the conversion of approximately 142 acres within the 1,365-acre former Puente Hills Landfill to a regional park. The Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation has prepared a Master Plan to cooperatively plan and implement a regional park destination for public recreational activities. The Master Plan is a long-range master plan (75 years) that over time would develop a portion of what was formerly the largest landfill in the western United States into a regional park, providing recreation and open space for the greater Los Angeles area. Future park activities and operations would be compatible with the ongoing maintenance of the landfill. Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts will remain present and active on the landfill property to maintain and monitor the landfill for public health and safety. 2013-

Environmental documents provided for review included a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), Health Risk Assessment (HRA), the hazards and hazardous materials section of the EIR, and correspondence between the City and the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB). Based on our review of the documents, Ninyo & Moore provided the following conclusions: Ninyo & Moore concurred with the RECs identified in the Phase I, with the exception that previous soil vapor data be compared to current regulatory screening levels; the site should not be redeveloped for unrestricted land use unless additional assessment is conducted; additional research should be conducted to evaluate potential liability concerning petroleum impacts to the site and offsite exposure; the HRA was conducted in accordance with established risk assessment guidance; Ninyo & Moore concurred with the EIR that the RECs would be considered less than significant. Ninyo & Moore recommended that the environmental documents be provided to the LARWQCB for their review and evaluation for potential future assessments on the site. 2019-

As-Needed Environmental and Cultural Consultant Services Contract, Los Angeles County Consultant: ECORP Consulting, Inc.

Client: Los Angeles County Public Works
ECORP is currently providing CEQA/NEPA, biological resources, restoration ecology, regulatory permitting, and cultural resources services to the County at various infrastructure projects throughout the County. Examples of task orders include:
♦ Peck Water Conservation Project. ECORP reviewed the Draft IS/MND for the Peck Road Water Conservation Improvement Project, which was prepared by another consultant. This project includes removal of sediment from an approximately 8-acre area, which Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) Water Resources Division is proposing to mitigate by creating habitat around the perimeter of the basin. The IS/MND was reviewed to: 1) verify its consistency with known information collected by ECORP for a trails project in the same location; 2) ensure no conflict of interest for the two projects; and 3) verify its compliance with CEQA (e.g., determine whether the impact analyses make sense with the known resources, the mitigations seem appropriate, etc.).
♦ Big Tujunga Wash Mitigation Area. Since 2007, ECORP has been providing biological services for the County’s 245-acre Big Tujunga Wash Mitigation Area near the community of Sunland in Los Angeles County. The credits are used by the County as mitigation for various public works projects in debris basins, reservoirs, and channels throughout Los Angeles County. Services include biological reconnaissance surveys, focused surveys for threatened and endangered species, habitat restoration planning and implementation, invasive plant species eradication, removal of terrestrial and aquatic
exotic invasive wildlife species (e.g.,
brown-headed cowbirds, bullfrogs,
and nonnative fishes), agency
coordination (USACE, CDFW, USFWS),
and public outreach to the local
communities who use the site for
hiking and equestrian activities. In
addition, ECORP processes data
provided by the County and data
collected during ECORP surveys to
provide updated GIS analyses of trails,
“The biologists from ECORP appear to be doing a
fantastic job of identifying and addressing
management concerns within the [Big Tujunga
Wash] mitigation area. I am particularly impressed
with the effort that was put forth to control the water lettuce that was discovered in 2011 and to
continually remove rock dams as they are
constructed in Haines Creek.”

restoration areas, and impacts of human uses on site. ECORP staff have conducted formal training sessions for the County’s Flood Maintenance Division workers on removing debris and site-user-created rock dams from Haines Canyon Creek in a manner that is safe for the three special-status fish species present in the creek. Biological studies that are conducted periodically on site include focused surveys for least Bell’s vireo, southwestern willow flycatcher, arroyo toad, Santa Ana sucker, Santa Ana speckled dace, and arroyo chub. ♦ Zuma Beach Restroom #2. ECORP prepared a Biological Assessment Report (BAR) to support a variance request to the City of Malibu for a new restroom facility at Zuma Beach. The City determined that the location of the Zuma restroom #2 is within 100 feet of an Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Area, a biologically sensitive area designated by the City for protection of natural resources, such as riparian vegetation. A Feasible Alternatives Analysis was also prepared to analyze each of the four proposed facility locations (one preferred and three alternatives) with regard to potential biological impacts to satisfy the City’s reporting requirement. ECORP also conducted pre-construction nesting bird surveys and construction monitoring for the project.
♦ Devil’s Gate Reservoir Sediment Removal Project. ECORP is providing mitigation planning and regulatory permit services for the Devil’s Gate Reservoir Sediment Removal and Management Project. The goal of the project is
to restore and maintain the flood capacity of the
reservoir to meet its intended level of flood
protection for the communities located
downstream of the facility. The project involves
a comprehensive plan to remove sediment,
which will restore the desired flood capacity and
will allow for an area in the reservoir that can be
managed to maintain the flood control capacity
of the reservoir. ECORP evaluated on and
offsite locations as potential mitigation sites for
the project and conducted CRAM sampling at
the mitigation sites. In addition, ECORP
conducted a jurisdictional delineation, negotiated the delineation with the USACE, and provided the supplemental documentation for the acceptance of the Preliminary Jurisdictional Delineation (PJD). ECORP prepared the HMMP and contributed to the preparation of the EA in support of the Section 404 permit from the USACE. The HMMP includes a comprehensive program to restore the temporary impact areas, the side slopes, and the adjacent mitigation sites to native habitat after sediment removal and to provide nesting opportunities for federal and state listed bird species. ECORP also provided technical assistance with the Streambed Alteration Agreement (SAA) application and prepared the ITP that was submitted to the CDFW to address potential impacts to state-listed endangered and threatened species. ECORP also participated in extensive agency negotiations in regard to the permit conditions in the ITP and ECORP is providing litigation support, mitigation
planning and regulatory permit services for the
