The program encourages continued use of illegal and dangerous drugs, and people are dying as a result.

Recommendations could include, as appropriate: a. Options for financial compensation for the closest living descendant(s) of Silas White inclusive of wealth lost since the property was seized by the City of Santa Monica; and b. An outline of steps that may be required to transfer the parcel(s) of land referred to as “Ebony Beach Club” at 1811 Ocean Avenue or equivalent parcels in the portion of land within the area currently occupied all or in part by the Viceroy Hotel. Priority factors to be analyzed as part of the next steps should include: i. Any needs to amend the deed to the property to allow for such a transaction; ii.

Walking by city hall just now I couldn't help but notice that our mayor still hasn't attached his front license plate, despite telling me in February that he was "going to attach it another way". You'd think a guy who's all about law and order would be able to follow basic traffic laws himself, but he seems to be following the Republican ethos that there must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, and out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
I can't help but wonder what other laws Phil feels protected but not bound by.

I just saw our soon-to-be mayor getting out of the fancy new electric Mercedes SUV he doesn't want to have to pay to charge, and I couldn't help but notice that Phil didn't attach his front license plate. As a lifelong Californian I'd think Phil would know that it's California law to attach both license plates to a car. I can't help but wonder what other laws will Phil decide don't apply to him once he's mayor.

Subject: Vienna Housing Model
EXTERNAL
Dear City Council and City Manager,
I reached out to a dear friend in Vienna after reading in the Outlook about the partially aborted trip. She's been working for the Vienna Mission for decades and had this to say about Mayor Brock's comments about their city's housing model.
"Oh my….you should come and see, blocks and blocks of soviet built houses, never seen those in Vienna…. :-)
We have great housing programmes here that’s for sure, but [t]he article is right with one thing, this would not work for Santa Monica…"
Taxpayers are appalled at the great expense of our dollars for this boondoggle by Councilmembers, Davis and Torosis, neither of whom are housing experts, when our money could have funded the public safety of Santa Monica's children with a crossing guard at Lincoln Blvd. and Ocean Ave.
Shameful!

RE: Public Comment. Item 1A, March 19, 2024 (Revised Letter.) Dear Mayor Brock, Mayor Pro Tem Negrete and Councilmembers:
Congratulations on the much deserved Pro Housing Designation by the State. You and past Councilmembers have again demonstrated Santa Monica’s commitment to housing production, especially that which serves the needs of lower income families. Santa Monica is now one of thirty seven California jurisdictions receiving this designation and thereby moves to the front of the line in consideration for State incentives, funding and other State resources.
This designation was made because of the City’s very progressive, pro-housing Housing Element, which was adopted by a prior City Council in October 2021. Many of you sat on that City Council, and I thank you for the time and effort you contributed. It was a huge undertaking by the Planning Commission, staff and the then City Council. Since then, amendments to the Zoning Ordinance have been made according to the directives of the Housing Element and have put in place all the processes and programs that were adopted in 2021. These ZO changes were required in order to avoid a noncompliance finding by the State. So thank you for that.
However, I do have a concern. Being designated as a pro housing city in 2024 may lead some to believe that Santa Monica was not a pro housing city prior to that. That is far from accurate and ignores the decades of commitment to housing production and preservation and tenant rights by many residents, public and elected officials and activists. I believe that the majority of City decision makers, past and present, understand the magnitude of the housing shortage in the LA region and its impacts on affordability. I also believe that the City has accomplished what is possible given the its real estate market and its effects on new housing construction, the resistance to development by a minority of residents, and, more recently, the effects of the pandemic.
Santa Monica’s commitment to addressing our housing issues dates back to 1979 with the passage of the Charter Amendment that brought about the most far reaching rent control law in the country. And continued through the 1990’s with voters’ enactment of Measure R, requiring that 30% of all newly constructed housing units be affordable to low and moderate income households. A few years after Measure R was passed, the City created the Affordable Housing Production Program, which requires market rate housing projects to include deed restricted affordable units. To this day, Santa Monica remains among the minority of cities with a jurisdiction-wide inclusionary housing requirement. About 40% of our affordable units are in mixed income projects.
The City’s historic commitment to affordable housing production is also clear. The evidence of this commitment is the thousands of deed restricted affordable rental housing units throughout the city. This housing serves lower income families, seniors, and people in need of supportive housing. Most of these projects benefitted from City funding. Community Corporation of Santa Monica (CCSM) was a community driven initiative, but its success has much to do with the first seed money provided to it by the City. As we all know, CCSM remains a major provider of our affordable housing.

Finally, just a reminder that the City exceeded its 5th Cycle Housing Element RHNA goals by about 100%, meaning about twice as many housing units were produced than required by the State. Some may argue that the 5th Cycle RHNA was too low, but that is a rhetorical point since it was based on SCAG’s methodology at the time and a waste of time now to dispute.
Again, congratulations to all of us for this very meaningful recognition. Also congratulations to past elected and appointed officials, City staff and residents who made possible a progressive housing agenda over the years. Santa Monicans did not suddenly develop a social conscience during preparation of the Housing Element. It has always been here. Not universal for sure, but substantial enough to make a difference.
Sincerely,
Leslie Lambert
Sunset Park Resident

Agenda Item: 5.A
1 of 5
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Valte, Public Works Director, Public Works, Architecture Services Subject: Approval of First Modification to Agreement with Olympos Construction Inc. for 2800 Airport Avenue Renovation Project
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), of the California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines;
2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a first modification to agreement #11449 (CCS) in the amount of $1,746,250 (including contingency) with Olympos Construction Inc. (Olympos) for costs associated with additional scope related to the multiple buildings at 2800 Airport Avenue for the Public Works Department. This will result in an amended agreement with a new total amount not to exceed $5,058,350, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval;
3. Authorize the Director of Public Works to issue any necessary change orders to complete additional work within contract authority; and
4. Authorize budget changes as outlined in the Financial Impacts and Budget Actions section of this report.
Summary
The 2800 Airport Avenue Renovation Project consists of upgrades for code compliance, renovation of restrooms, fresh finishes, new lighting and HVAC and is necessary to comply with current code regulations, address deferred maintenance issues, minimize ongoing maintenance costs, and increase revenue potential. During construction, it became clear additional work would be necessary to complete the seismic retrofit, address miscellaneous repairs to the mobile trailers and paint the exterior of the kiln building also at the project site. These additional scopes of work required on-site evaluation during the early phase of construction and could not be fully defined until
5.A
Packet Pg. 21

after that work was complete. To complete the unanticipated additional seismic retrofit, repairs and painting scope to the 2800 Airport Avenue buildings, staff recommends executing a first amendment to the construction contract with Olympos in the amount of $1,746,250 for a new total amount not to exceed $5,058,350. Appropriation of additional budget from the Airport Fund is required to complete this additional scope of work.
Discussion
Originally built in 1953, the main building at 2800 Airport Avenue is a concrete cast-inplace structure that requires seismic retrofitting. While the preliminary design of this seismic retrofit was included in the bid documents, it was anticipated that the design would be finalized based on on-site evaluations during the early phase of construction.
Therefore a $500,000 allowance for the retrofit was included in the original bid. The final design has now been completed and requires the roof to be removed and replaced.
This was not anticipated and requires additional funds to complete the unanticipated work for the seismic retrofit.
Circa 1988, Santa Monica College (SMC) installed nine double-wide mobile trailers for use as classrooms in the parking lot associated with the 2800 Airport Avenue building.
On March 31, 2023, SMC did not exercise their option to extend their lease and transferred ownership of the trailers to the City. The City now desires to convert these trailers to artist studios and classrooms for the Ruskin Theater (executed lease). These trailers, which have been sitting vacant since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, have deferred maintenance issues requiring additional funds beyond those approved in the original contract.
Also built in 1953, the kiln building at the site has been occupied since 1988 by SMC as their ceramics program facility. Painting of the exterior of the building and related deferred maintenance issues have been identified and additional funds are required to add this to the original scope of work.
Staff recommends awarding the additional scope to Olympos to expedite the completion of work, avoid additional mobilization costs, and limit responsibility for all construction
5.A

activity associated with the project to one contractor. The City is working in close collaboration with the Ruskin Group that plans to start their tenant improvements of a portion of the building following the completion of City improvements to the core and shell. Bidding the additional scope of work, as described herein, separately would delay the completion of work by both the City and the Ruskin Group, therefore delaying the ability to lease the building, the ability to collect revenue from those leases, and the activation of the space. In addition, the removal and replacement of the roof would affect the work that is required to be completed by Olympos under the current contract.
Some of the newly completed work would need to be demolished and replaced if done under a separate contractor which would increase the total cost to the City. Finally, having multiple contractors complete work within the same building may create additional liability for the City and therefore is not recommended.
Construction of the 2800 Airport Avenue Renovation Project base scope was started in November 2023, and is currently on schedule to be completed by May 5, 2024. Due to the schedule of classes for the SMC ceramic program, painting of the kiln building cannot be completed until September 1, 2024.
Environmental Review
The project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 and Section 15302 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15301 exempts Class 1 (Existing Facilities) projects from CEQA, which include the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. The project would renovate the existing city facilities at 2800 Airport Avenue, and therefore, it has been determined that the project would fall within the Class 1 categorical exemption. Furthermore, staff has determined that none of the exceptions to Categorical Exemptions set forth in the CEQA Guidelines, section 15300.2 apply to this project.

Report
City Council Meeting: March 19, 2024
Agenda Item: 5.B
1 of 5
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Valte, Public Works Director, Public Works, Engineering and Street Services
Subject: Adoption of Resolution to Vacate Public Right-of-Way on 1717 19th Street Parcel
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301 and Section 15305 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines; and
2. Adopt the attached resolution to vacate public right-of-way on the 1717 19th Street parcel.
Summary
Property owners of 1717 19th Street requested that the City formally vacate a small piece of land designated as public right-of-way (ROW) located on their property. A number of north-south “dead-end” streets and alleys were created during the construction of the I-10 Freeway (freeway) in the 1950s and 1960s, thus restricting thru access. As a result, the State of California (State) acquired land and public right-of-way on private properties along certain parcels abutting the freeway to allow turnaround access for vehicles. This parcel included plans for a vehicular turnaround area, but it was never built. After construction of the freeway was completed in 1966, the State relinquished previously acquired public ROW land back to the City, including the turnaround area at 1717 19th Street. Since the relinquishment, no street improvements on this land were completed and the turnaround area was never used. The City has no current or prospective future use
5.B
Packet Pg. 51

for this land, there are no utilities within the proposed vacation area, and therefore, staff recommends that the excess public right-of-way be vacated.
Discussion
During construction of the I-10 Freeway (freeway), the original north-south access roads between 4th Street and Centinela Avenue resulted in “dead-end” streets and alleys. Subsequently, the State acquired land to establish turnaround areas for vehicles due to the closures of the aforementioned north-south thoroughfares.
Upon the completion of the freeway construction, the State relinquished public right-of-way (ROW) to the City in December 1966 per State Highway Commission Resolution No. R866 (Attachment A). The State specifically acquired a portion of land located at 1717 19th Street through Deed No. 1543 (Attachment B). This land, shown in Figure 1, was likely intended to create a turnaround area in 19th Court.
The proposed relinquishment of ROW is required to be memorialized thru the summary vacation process and documented with a Resolution of Vacation (Attachment C). This would release ownership of the land and relinquish it back to the rightful title holder of the surrounding land parcel. The land area, shown in red in Figure 1, is not currently being used as public ROW.

Figure 1: Area proposed for vacation.
As part of its overall real estate housekeeping efforts, representatives from 1717 19th Street property surrounding the land in question, requested to formally vacate the public ROW (turnaround area) as specified in the legal description and plat of the vacation area as part of drawing No. 4828 (Attachment C).
City staff sent notices to public and private utilities (e.g., Southern California Edison) requesting information pertaining to current utilities within the proposed vacation areas and feedback regarding the proposed vacation. Staff received one comment in the 30-day comment period provided in the notice. No comments indicated the presence of utilities within the proposed vacation areas. The City has no current or prospective future uses for the street proposed for vacation.
Additionally, pursuant to section 503 of the 2022 California Fire Code, the City’s Fire Department has reviewed the proposed street easement vacation and has
5.B
Packet Pg. 53
4 of 5
found that the vacation of this street easement would not violate the Code and existing fire access to the site.
The vacation of the public ROW (turnaround area) qualifies for summary vacation under California Streets and Highways Code (SHC) section 8331 because the street easement has not been used for vehicular travel for a period of five years, and no public money was expended on street maintenance during such period. To approve the vacation request, Council would follow the procedure set in SHC 8335-8336 to vacate the public ROW which requires the adoption of a resolution of vacation. The City Clerk would then file a certified copy of the resolution of vacation with the Los Angeles County Recorder, and upon such recordation, the vacation would be complete.
Environmental Review
The vacation is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) and Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) of the CEQA Guidelines.
Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) exempts projects that consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Section 15301 (Class 5 – Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations), exempts minor alterations in land use limitations in areas with an average slope of less than 20%, which do not result in any changes in land use or density including but not limited to lot line adjustments and encroachment permits. The vacation would consists of the relinquishment of existing right-of-way. The vacation would not expand or physically change existing City streets or facilities. Therefore, the vacation is exempt pursuant to Section 15301 and Section 15305 of the CEQA Guidelines.
Financial Impacts and Budget Actions
There is no financial impact or budget action necessary as a result of the recommended action. Staff will return to Council if specific budget actions are required in the future.

To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Valte, Public Works Director, Public Works, Water Resources Subject: Award Professional Services Contract to Arcadis U.S. for Site Security Analysis & Updates to the City's Water, Wastewater, & Recycled Water Facilities
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15262 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines;
2. Award RFP #381 to Arcadis U.S., Inc. to analyze and design updates to the City’s current water, wastewater, and recycled water facilities’ physical security systems; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Arcadis U.S., Inc. in the amount not to exceed $845,000 over a 3-year period, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval.
Summary
The City of Santa Monica, Department of Public Works – Water Resources Division owns and operates several facilities providing water, wastewater, and recycled water services to the community. To enhance site security measures for the City’s water and wastewater infrastructure, the Water Resources Division is proactively seeking analyses of existing site security measures and identify additional security measures, if necessary, to protect the City’s key physical assets relating to drinking water production, wastewater collection, and water recycling. This project supports the City’s goal of providing a safe, high-quality, and sustainable local water supply. Staff recommends that RFP #381 be awarded to Arcadis U.S., Inc. (Arcadis), and that an agreement be negotiated and executed to analyze and design site security measures for the City’s water and wastewater infrastructure.

Discussion
The City’s Water Resources Division provides drinking water, wastewater, and recycled water services to over 93,000 residents and over 2,700 commercial customers. To provide these services, the City owns and operates several facilities including the Charnock Well Field, Charnock Treatment Plant, Olympic Well Field, Arcadia Water Treatment Plant, four drinking water reservoirs, the Sustainable Water Infrastructure Project (SWIP), Santa Monica Urban Runoff Recycling Facility (SMURRF), Moss Avenue Pump Station, stormwater harvesting tanks, and stormwater lift stations. A critical aspect to providing safe, clean, and affordable access to drinking water, wastewater collection and water recycling services involves ensuring physical security of the City’s water resource facilities. These facilities currently have varying degrees of physical security features, pending their location and potential security threats at each location, and have been updated on a facility-by-facility basis. As an example, the exterior fencing at SMURRF was recently replaced with taller, anti-climb fencing to prevent unauthorized individuals from entering the facility.
The Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 required drinking water utilities to conduct Risk and Resilience Assessments and create emergency response plans to submit to the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (US EPA). The City’s water and wastewater infrastructure is in compliance with the requirements and site security measures are continually reviewed as required by the US EPA. However, to further enhance security measures at the City’s water and wastewater facilities and to meet each site’s needs, staff is proactively seeking professional engineering services to incorporate industry best practices from professional organizations, such as American Water Works Association and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, to complement the site security guidelines established by the US EPA.
A comprehensive site security risk assessment for the City’s water, wastewater, and recycled water facilities will be conducted to recommend technologies and security plans for implementation at key water and wastewater facilities. The security plan will

To: Mayor and City Council
From: Anuj Gupta, Director of Transportation, Parking Operations (DOT) Subject: Award Contract Walker Parking Consultants Engineers, Inc. for Comprehensive Citywide Parking Supply, Demand, and Rate Analysis Study Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of no possibility of significant effect pursuant to Section 15262 (Feasibility and Planning Studies) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
2. Award RFP# 386 to Walker Parking Consultants Engineers, Inc., a Californiabased company, for consulting services to prepare a citywide comprehensive parking supply, demand, and rate analysis for the Department of Transportation, Parking Division.
3. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Walker Parking Consultants Engineers, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $280,000 (including a $50,225 contingency) over a five-year period.
Summary
A comprehensive parking study completed by a parking consultant is required for the City to make informed planning, financial, and operational decisions on City owned parking facilities. The City of Santa Monica has not completed a comprehensive parking study since 2009-2010, and the last consultant led rate study that was done was completed in 2012. In this new study, the consultant will evaluate parking supply, demand, operation, management, parking rates, and best practices. In addition, the consultant will provide assistance to the City with public outreach, public engagement, meeting requirements set forth by the California Coastal Commission, and all other miscellaneous tasks needed to complete this parking study.

Discussion
Periodically, it is necessary for cities to examine their parking supply, demand, operation, management, parking rates, and best practices with the assistance of a parking consultant. This information is used to make decisions on rate changes, whether a city needs to add or remove parking, and make other informed decisions about parking operations and management. Since the last comprehensive study in 2009-2010, parking behaviors and demands have shifted and a parking study is now needed to help address the City’s parking related issues.
This study will examine the City’s current parking rate structure, which has not changed since 2018. Any potential future rate increases require City Council approval and then a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) from the California Coastal Commission (CCC), because most of the City’s parking is within the coastal zone (west of 4th street north of the I-10 freeway, and west of Lincoln Blvd. south of the 10 freeway). After the study’s initial phases are complete and if a parking rate increase is proposed, it will be brought back to Council for approval, then to the CCC in order to obtain a CDP. The CCC approved the 2018 rate increase and imposed the following conditions on any future rate increases.
• Future rate increases will require a new or amended CDP. • The City must analyze the feasibility of converting all beach lot spaces to hourly instead of a daily flat rate. Currently 80% of beach spaces charge a daily flat rate. • The City must analyze the feasibility of creating a low income pass or accepting the State of California Golden Bear Pass at beach lots. • The City would need to create a fee schedule and parking monitoring and reporting plan.
• Temporary parking rate adjustments for special events could not be included in this CDP and would require a separate CDP.
The recommended consultant, Walker Parking Consultants / Engineers (Walker) would lead the effort to perform the analysis needed to adhere to CCC requirements should
5.D
Packet Pg. 77
3 of 5
the City pursue a rate increase. Walker would also assist City staff in preparing the CDP application and supporting analysis, and attend and assist in meetings with CCC.
Walker would lead the examination of the City’s parking supply, demand, operation, and management. They would help staff in public outreach and engagement related to the parking rate study, parking resolution, related Council meetings, and special event rates (including events such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the 2028 Summer Olympic & Paralympic Games). Walker would also study the effects of the proposed parking facility tax increase and be available to address any other parking related issues that may arise in course of their contract. For instance, the Santa Monica Pier Corporation Board has requested a special study of Pier deck parking operations which will be included in this study. Additional studies beyond the original scope of the contract and exceeding the cost of the contract would require a contract modification utilizing the contingency funding approved per this staff recommendation.

To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Valte, Public Works Director, Public Works, Architecture Services Subject: Approval of First Modification to Agreement with Swinerton Builders for 3200 Airport Avenue Renovation Project
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of Categorical Exemption pursuant to Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15302 (Replacement/Reconstruction), of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines;
2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a first modification to agreement #11365 (CCS) in the amount of $500,000 (including a $50,000 contingency) with Swinerton Builders Corporation for the additional costs related to unforeseen conditions and electrical upgrades, for the Public Works Department. This will result in an amended agreement with a new total amount not to exceed $9,584,792, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval; and
3. Authorize the Director of Public Works to issue any necessary change orders to complete additional work within contract authority.
Summary
The 3200 Airport Avenue Building Renovation Project consists of interior and exterior upgrades, building system replacements, improved building access, and new landscaping and is necessary to comply with current code regulations, address deferred maintenance issues, minimize ongoing maintenance costs, and increase revenue potential. During initial building demolition and construction, unforeseen conditions were encountered and tenant coordination items were incorporated into the core and shell design, both of which affect the price of the project work to be completed by Swinerton Builders. To address these unforeseen conditions and incorporate elements of the tenant’s scope in a coordinated and expedited manner, staff recommends executing a
5.E
Packet Pg. 84
2 of 4
first amendment to the construction contract with Swinerton Builders in the amount of $500,000 for a new total amount not to exceed $9,584,792.
Discussion
Built between 1940-1947, the building at 3200 Airport Avenue was part of a Property Condition Assessment that included a tier 1 seismic analysis and a comprehensive building assessment. The analysis and assessment identified numerous deficiencies in the building envelope, interior finishes, and building systems resulting in water intrusion, deterioration of building materials, and lack of thermal comfort within the building.
During demolition and construction, it was discovered that the original building materials (water proofing, wood windowsills, door thresholds, etc.) had deteriorated more than expected, and subsequently allowed rain and irrigation water to leak into walls causing dry rot and termites to damage wall framing beyond repair. Therefore, the replacement of all existing wall framing was required to meet current code mandates/construction standards, and to maintain the structural integrity of the building.
The City executed a lease agreement with the company Clover in September 2023 for approximately half of the 3200 Airport Avenue building. Clover has developed plans for the conversion of their leased space into a new restaurant and are planning to start construction as soon as the City completes the building’s core and shell work. The proposed design includes an all-electric kitchen, which supports the City’s zero emission building objectives, and requires an upgrade to the building’s electrical supply components beyond that which was anticipated in the original scope of work. In addition, some of their work would require the augmentation or demolition of materials that would have just been installed by Swinerton Builders. Therefore, incorporating elements of the tenant’s planned improvements, such as under slab plumbing, into Swinerton Builders’ contract would provide a coordinated and expedited completion of the work, including tenant build-out and opening the tenant space to the public.
Construction of the 3200 Airport Avenue Renovation project was started in May 2023 and the base scope of work will be completed by the original completion date, additional services are anticipated to be completed in early 2025.

Environmental Review
The project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 and Section 15302 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15301 exempts Class 1 (Existing Facilities) projects from CEQA, which include the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Section 15302 exempts Class 2 (Replacement or Reconstruction) projects which include the replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located in the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. The project would renovate the existing city facility at 3200 Airport Avenue, and therefore, it has been determined that the project would fall within the Class 1 and Class 2 categorical exemptions. Furthermore, staff has determined that none of the exceptions to Categorical Exemptions set forth in the CEQA Guidelines, section 15300.2 apply to this project.

Report
City Council Meeting: March 19, 2024
Agenda Item: 5.F
1 of 5
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Oscar Santiago, Director, Finance Department, Risk Management Subject: Approval of Fourth Modification to Agreement with Origami Risk, Inc. for Claims Management Software Subscription Services
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a fourth modification to agreement #10275 in the amount of $810,525 with Origami Risk, Inc., an Illinoisbased company, for Risk Management Information System software subscription services for the Finance Department. This will result in a thirteen-year amended agreement with a new total amount not to exceed $1,764,278 with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval; and
2. Adopt a finding of no significant effect pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
Summary
In 2016, the City purchased a Risk Management Information System (RMIS) from Origami Risk, Inc. (Origami). The system is necessary for staff to track, manage, and report on the City’s liability and workers’ compensation claims in compliance with various laws and regulations. Since the system was implemented, City staff has worked with Origami to implement additional features to the system, including giving City employees the ability to enter liability incident reports directly into the system. The current agreement with Origami that includes an ongoing software subscription and maintenance, and support services is set to expire in May 2024. To continue using the existing RMIS, receive critical technical support, and to build out expanded features including citywide insurance compliance, a modification to extend the term of the agreement by an additional five years is required. This fourth modification will increase

Packet Pg. 116

the contract by $810,525 resulting in a thirteen-year amended agreement in an amount not to exceed $1,764,278. The increased costs of the contract include continuing performance and security upgrades to the RMIS as well as costs to build out and continually service updated and added features, an insurance portal, which will simplify and automate the process of managing insurance compliance of City insureds that have agreements with the City. Origami is the only vendor qualified to provide support for its proprietary RMIS.
Discussion
The Finance Department oversees the City’s two Self-Insurance Programs. The Liability Program provides funding to investigate, defend and pay all damages for general, auto and transit liability claims, and lawsuits filed against the City. The Workers’ Compensation Program funds all expenses associated with employee work-related injuries, including medical care and indemnity payments. Risk Management staff is responsible for processing all liability claims and most workers’ compensation claims.
Staff utilize a RMIS for routine tasks such as issuing payments, tracking claim activity, updating reserves, and generating notices. The system is also used to provide required workers’ compensation reporting to the California Department of Industrial Relations and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. In addition, a RMIS generates data to track the overall financial and operational performance of the Self-Insurance Programs.
On March 22, 2016 (Attachment A), Council approved an agreement with Origami for claims management software subscription services after staff completed an extensive RFP process. The implementation of the Origami RMIS was completed in January 2017. Since then, it has been a highly functioning and easy-to-use system, with several unique features that have enabled staff to efficiently administer claims. The most valuable feature is the portal for employees to submit injury reports online, which allows workers’ compensation claims to be set-up faster, which in turn, has sped up authorization of initial medical care, commencement of the investigation process, issuance of benefit payments, and return of injured employees to work. In April 2023 the portal was expanded to provide a capability for employees citywide to submit liability

and City property damage reports directly into the system. Origami offers other robust capabilities, such as automated reporting, system generated emails, and integration with other systems such as Tyler Munis.
The current agreement with Origami expires this May. A fourth modification extending the agreement is necessary to continue to receive regular system updates and support services. The Origami software is a proprietary product and only Origami can provide these services for its software. Engaging a new software maintenance and support company would necessitate purchasing a new claims management system, which would be much more costly than maintaining the current system and would involve significant disruption to Risk Management’s operations. In addition, staff will now utilize Origami’s insurance compliance module to automate and streamline the process of keeping in compliance the roughly 1,400 insureds that currently have active agreements with the City.
To protect the City from risks associated with each agreement, Risk Management works with City staff to select the appropriate insurance requirements for each agreement, procure the proper insurance documentation from the insured, and then keeps the documentation on file for the life of the agreement. Each year the City receives, reviews, and stores thousands of certificates and endorsements, a process which takes up many hours of staff time for Risk Management, citywide staff, and the insureds themselves.
As it did with the City’s workers’ compensation and liability claims programs, the Origami system will enable Risk Management to create a streamlined and automated Insurance Compliance system that will not only save hours of staff time but will also help protect the City’s interests.
Origami’s RMIS system is a benchmark for the Risk Management Industry. It is a userfriendly, easily configurable system that has continued to meet the expanding needs of the City’s Risk Management Program and can continue to do so for years to come.

Environmental Review
This contract modification is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. The agreement is covered by the common sense exemption which states that CEQA does not apply, “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” The contract modification will provide for a software system that would not have a physical effect on the environment. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that actions would not result in adverse physical impacts on the environment, and as such, is exempt from CEQA.

Staff seeks authority to approve available funding from the General Liability/Auto, Transit, and Workers’ Compensation Funds to increase the amount of the agreement with Origami Risk, Inc. for claims management software subscription services. Funds are available in the adopted FY 2023-24 budget. Future year funding is contingent on Council budget approval.

Agenda Item: 3.Q
1 of 4
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Gigi Decavalles-Hughes, Director, Finance Department, Risk Management Administration
Subject: Claims Management Software System
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1) Award RFP# 36 to Origami Risk, Inc., an Illinois-based company, for a claims management software subscription service to support the City’s Liability and Workers’ Compensation Programs;
2) Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an Agreement with Origami Risk, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $591,353 over a five-year period with future funding contingent on Council budget approval; and 3) Authorize budget changes as outlined in the Financial Impacts & Budget Actions section of this report.
Executive Summary
The City’s Finance Department is responsible for the internal management of the City’s Liability and Workers’ Compensation Programs. In June 2015, staff solicited proposals from software companies for a new claims management software system to support the City’s Liability and Workers’ Compensation Programs. This process yielded proposals from five software firms, three of which were invited to provide on-site demonstrations of their software’s capabilities. As a result of this effort, staff recommends the City pursue a five-year agreement with Origami Risk, Inc. (Origami) at a total cost of $591,353.
Origami’s software offers the greatest functionality, is competitively priced, and comes highly recommended by the firm’s existing customer base. The agreement will be funded by the City’s Self-Insurance Funds, which are financed with contributions from all City Departments.
Background
The Risk Management Division of the Finance Department is responsible for managing the City’s Self-Insurance Programs. Integral to this effort is a high functioning automated claims system that supports staff’s efforts to efficiently track, manage, and report on the City’s liability and workers’ compensation claims. For nearly two decades, Risk Management has used Ventiv Technology’s (Ventiv) IVOS claims management
5.F.c
Packet Pg. 189 Attachment: 3-22-16 Staff Report (6207 : Approval of Fourth Modification to Agreement with Origami Risk, Inc.) 2 of 4
software for this purpose. Staff’s most recent report to Council, on May 27, 2015 (Attachment A), describes the City’s history with this software. Approximately two years ago, however, Ventiv announced plans to introduce a new claims management system and discontinue support of IVOS. This prompted staff to begin preparations for purchasing a new claims management software system.
Discussion
Prior to releasing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a new software system, staff formally solicited information from software firms on the capabilities of current state-ofthe-art claims systems. A total of nine firms responded to the Request for Information (RFI), of which five were invited to provide on-site demonstrations of their system’s capabilities. The information gained from this process was then used to prepare an RFP for a new claims management system. The results of this process are detailed below.
Origami provides the service through a cloud-based software subscription (rather than selling a software license) and no new equipment will be necessary. Staff estimates it will take six to nine months from agreement execution to implement the new system.
Once this occurs, the City will discontinue its agreement with Ventiv Technology.
Vendor/Consultant Selection
On June 15, 2015, the City issued an RFP for a claims management system. The RFP was posted on the City’s online bidding site, and notices were advertised in the Santa Monica Daily Press in accordance with City Charter and Municipal Code provisions. A total of 679 vendors were notified of the RFP; 15 downloaded the RFP; and five firms responded.
Responses to the RFP were reviewed by a selection panel composed of staff from the Finance, Information Systems, and Human Resources Departments. After an initial review, the selection panel narrowed the field to three firms and invited each to provide an in-depth, on-site demonstration of its system’s capabilities. Origami’s proposal rose to the top due to its software’s capabilities and ease of use. The firm also received high
5.F.c
Packet Pg. 190 Attachment: 3-22-16 Staff Report (6207 : Approval of Fourth Modification to Agreement with Origami Risk, Inc.) 3 of 4
praise from existing users (staff conducted on-site visits to obtain feedback on system performance and Origami’s responsiveness to service requests). Finally, Origami’s pricing was the least costly of the top three firms interviewed.
Consequently, the selection panel recommended the City pursue a five-year agreement with Origami in an amount not to exceed $591,353. This figure includes system conversion costs and ongoing software subscription, system maintenance, and file storage costs.

To fund the first two years of the Agreement (FYs 2015-16 and 2016-17), staff is requesting that funds of $250,000 previously budgeted in the CIP for this project be moved to the operating budget for subscription payments as follows:

Staff will request funding for the remaining contract years’ costs in the FY 2017-19 Biennial Budget. Future year funding is dependent on Council budget approval.

Staff Report Body
SummaryIn 2016, the City purchased an automated claims management system from Origami Risk, Inc. (Origami). The system is necessary for staff totrack, manage, and report on the City’s liability and workers’ compensation claims in compliance with various laws and regulations. The currentagreement with Origami that includes an ongoing software subscription and maintenance and support services is set to expire in May 2021. To continue using the existing claims management system and receive critical technical support, a modification to extend the term of the agreement by an additional three years is required. This third modification would increase the contract by $362,400 resulting in an 8-year amended agreement in an amount not to exceed $953,753.

As such, staff seeks authority to proceed with the modification on a sole source basis under the exception to the competitive process set out in Santa Monica Municipal Code Section 2.24.250 (b). DiscussionThe Finance Department oversees the City’s two Self-Insurance Programs. The Liability Program provides funding to investigate, defend and pay all damages for general, auto and transit liability claims, and lawsuits filed against the City. The Workers’ Compensation Program funds allexpenses associated with employee work-related injuries, including medical care and indemnity payments. Risk Management staff isresponsible for processing all liability claims and most workers’ compensation claims. Staff utilize a claims management system for routine taskssuch as issuing payments, tracking claim activity, updating reserves, and generating notices. The system is also used to provide required workers’ compensation reporting to the California Department of Industrial Relations and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. In addition, a claims system generates data to track the overall financial and operational performance of the Self-Insurance Programs. On March 22, 2016 (Attachment A), Council approved an agreement with Origami for claims management software subscription services after staff completed an extensive RFP process. The implementation of the Origami claims management system was completed in January 2017.Since then, it has been a highly functioning and easy-to-use system, with several unique features that have enabled staff to efficiently administerclaims. The most valuable feature is the portal for employees to submit injury reports online, which allows workers’ compensation claims to beset-up faster, which in turn, has sped up authorization of initial medical care, commencement of the investigation process, issuance of benefitpayments, and return of injured employees to work. The Origami system has other robust capabilities, such as automated reporting, system generated emails, and integration with other systems. Lastly, the customer service from Origami has been dependable.The first and second modifications to the original agreement were executed in March 2018 and July 2019, respectively. These modificationsincluded additional system features and did not require Council approval, as they did not impact the agreement’s previously authorized total cost of $591,353.The current agreement with Origami expires this May. A modification extending the agreement is necessary to continue to receive regularsystem updates and support services. The Origami software is a proprietary product and only Origami can provide these services for its software. Engaging a new software maintenance and support company would necessitate purchasing a new claims management system, which would be much more costly than maintaining the current system and would involve significant disruption to Risk Management’s operations.

Report
City Council Meeting: March 19, 2024
Agenda Item: 5.G
1 of 4
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Valte, Public Works Director, Public Works, Water Resources Subject: Approval of First Modification to Agreement #11295 (CCS) with Arcadis U.S., Inc. for Updating the City's Water and Sanitary Sewer Master Plans.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a first modification to Agreement 11295 (CCS) in the amount of $105,550 with Arcadis U.S., Inc and extend the agreement to June 30, 2026, for updating the City’s Domestic Water and Wastewater Master Plans. This will result in a four-year amended agreement with a new total amount not to exceed $910,710, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval.
Summary
The City has added and upgraded significant portions of the water and wastewater infrastructure in recent years with the goal of enhancing water efficiency and reducing its reliance on imported water supplies. Additional funding is needed to provide continued technical support for deployment of advanced water meters across the City and to rebuild portions of the City’s hydraulic models to reflect actual field conditions discovered during construction of new water supply projects. Staff recommends increasing the current Arcadis U.S., Inc. Agreement #11295 (CCS) by $105,550, for a new total amount not to exceed $910,710. Staff also recommends extending the contract through June 30, 2026, to support the completion of the smart meter project.

Discussion
The City’s Public Works Department - Water Resources Division periodically updates the City’s Domestic Water and Wastewater Master Plans to identify future improvements to the City’s water distribution and wastewater collection systems. As part of these updates, the water and wastewater hydraulic models are also updated to incorporate new water supply projects and changes to the wastewater collection system. Having up to date and well-maintained water and wastewater hydraulic models are essential to provide reliable and continuous operations for the water and wastewater system. The hydraulic models are updated through a combination of techniques including data analysis, flow monitoring, and pressure testing. They are then used to confirm available capacity and pipe condition, and to identify potential constraints in the water and wastewater systems.
On July 26, 2022, Council awarded RFP# 317 to Arcadis U.S., Inc. to update the City’s Domestic Water & Wastewater Master Plans and hydraulic models and to support the City’s deployment of automated metering infrastructure (AMI) meters, also known as smart meters. The updates to the hydraulic models included incorporating the recently completed Sustainable Water Infrastructure Project Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facility and expansion upgrades at the City’s Arcadia Water Treatment Plant, which are scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2024.
Additional funding is needed to re-construct the hydraulic models to reflect unforeseen field conditions at the Arcadia Water Treatment Plant discovered during construction activities to expand the treatment facility and to provide continued technical support for deployment and integration of advanced water meters into the City’s water distribution system. On-going technical support for the advanced water meters includes advisory services on contractor workflow, data analytics support, and business visualization/transition into automated reading services. The advanced water meter project is expected to be completed by the end of 2025.
Environmental Review
The award contract for updating the City’s Domestic Water and Sanitary Sewer Master Plans is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301(b)(3) of the CEQA

Guidelines. The agreement is covered by the commonsense exemption which states that CEQA does not apply, “where it can be seen with certainty that there is not possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment” as the professional services provided are to update the hydraulic model and provide technical advisory services for smart water meter deployment.

Arcadis will assign a dedicated data coordinator who will be our team’s point of contact and liaison to interface with City staff and ensure a smooth data collection process and organized data storage. Arcadis will use City’s SharePoint site for data management and exchange between the City
and our team. This will provide for seamless exchange of information between multiple staff on both sides as well as document retention for all meetings. Arcadis is highly committed to cyber security and will implement strong
security measures throughout the project.

3B. Domestic Water System
Description
The domestic water system will be
reviewed to accurately understand
and document all facilities, capacities,
and processes, as well as a developing
complete representation of the existing
domestic water distribution system.
The City’s domestic water system has
four sources entering the distribution
system: two MWD feeder services,
Santa Monica Well 1, and the Arcadia
Water Treatment Plant. Both MWD
connections are 24” diameter and can
maintain a hydraulic grade capable of
direct service to all three pressure zones
within the City’s service area. Typically,
the distribution system demand is
served between 30 - 40% through
these MWD connections, and the rest
is supplied from City owned ground
water wells. Multiple reservoirs are also
connected to the distribution system
including Riviera Reservoir, Mt Olivette
Reservoir, and San Vicente Reservoir. Figure 7. Potable Water System Map from 2020 Urban Water Management Plan 3C. Historical and Current Water Use
The City’s water consumption has dropped in recent
years due largely to conservation efforts by the City
across the customer base. Declines in consumption also
can result in additional water quality challenges due to localized areas of increased water age. Reviewing historical consumption data to identify trends in consumption based on location and customer class will be important for better understanding the future direction of water use. We will work with our partner Maddaus, who is currently looking at water use data as part of the conservation plan, to review finished water production for the entire system, pressure zone flows, and residential, commercial, and industrial customer metered usage. The difference between
production and billed usage will be used to determine
non-revenue water, which will also be broken out for each pressure zone. Minimal non-revenue water has historically been observed by the City (1.6% in 2016 and negative in more recent years – like due to metering inaccuracies), so calculated values will be corroborated with other reports and the City’s experiences to use the best estimate for modeling.
Once base demands are established, demand scaling
factors must be identified to extrapolate demands
allocated to each customer meter location to project
average, maximum daily, and peak hourly system flow
conditions unique to each pressure zone and customer
class. Our deep technical knowledge of modeling, demand forecasting and planning will ensure the results of this task provide realistic and practical factors throughout each hour of the day.
Seasonal, daily and hourly demands vary from
community to community based on variables, such as
climate, climate change, customer types, and areas of
irrigation based on economic factors. It is important that appropriate demand peaking factors be selected so that
water system improvements are not unduly oversized,
thus increasing costs and creating water quality concerns.
Our technical experts will work with the City to review the data to determine appropriate factors to use for each pressure zone while considering the impacts on systemwide peak demands.
Diurnal patterns reflect the varying usage of water
throughout a typical day and are important for
understanding not only the impact of peak demand
conditions on the performance of the distribution system, but also the impact of low demand periods on water
quality, which allows the City to better understand these and simulate improvements to address any challenges.
Representative demand patterns will be developed
for each pressure zone based on flow data and water
balances for each area.
In addition to average, max, and peak demand conditions, maximum day demand plus fire flow (MDD+FF) will
also be developed. One of the primary factors in sizing, operating and designing water distribution infrastructure is meeting specific capacity requirements to provide
adequate fire suppression. Various guidance manuals are relied on to support this, including AWWA M32, AWWA
M17, and NFPA 291, but many systems establish general
required fire flow guidelines depending on the customer type or land use type. Based on our team’s industry

expertise, and through coordination with the City, the correct MDD+FF demand will be identified for use during model development and system evaluations. This way the most appropriate fire suppression guidelines will be applied when sizing future capital improvements.
3D. Future Water Use
Modeling future demand projections is a critical component of recommending any improvements or changes to a water distribution system. This task will build off the Water Conservation Master Plan currently being developed by Maddaus.
Near term (2025) and far term (2040) planning horizons for future demands will be considered; demand projections under multiple future planning years will assist with prioritizing and sequencing recommended improvements projects for ECWA.
Based on the latest Urban Water Master Plan, demands may see an overall slight increase or relatively flat demand through 2040 due to balances of new developments and conservation efforts. Demand forecasts from this and other studies, along with information directly from the City, will be incorporated into final values by land use and pressure zone. This will also be combined with future development information like the recently adopted 6th Housing Elements.
Future demands will be allocated
in the model and maintained in
a logical scenario and alternative
hierarchy in the modeling
software. Future demands will
be differentiated from existing
demands using different demand
categories, different named
demand patterns (e.g., “20-year
Future Residential Demand
Pattern”), and appropriately
named scenarios, data sets,
and alternatives. The purpose
of careful naming conventions
for future demands is to assist
the various users of the model
in easily differentiating between
existing and future demands in
the model. Whereas existing
modeled demands are based on
detailed water billing information
and geospatial locating of water
customers, sets of assumptions,
estimations, and trend data are
incorporated into future demands.
3E - Current and Future Water Supply
Current and future water supply for the City will be analyzed such that they may be incorporated into the modeling and master planning effort. Based on the 2018 Sustainable Water Master Plan Update & 2020 Urban Water Management Plans, ground water makes up around 65% of the current potable water supply while the rest is imported from MWD connections.
Ground water currently comes from the Charnock, Olympic, Arcadia sub-basins through multiple ground water wells owned by the City. Arcadia Water Treatment Plant treats much of this ground water before discharging into the water distribution system. Limited recycled water is also utilized by the City through the Santa Monica Urban Runoff Recycling Facility; this flow currently makes up around 1% of the total water supply.
In the future, the City wants to increase groundwater utilization and reduce imported water. Groundwater increases are planned through a combination of Olympic well field restoration, groundwater recharging efforts, and Arcadia WTP expansion and enhancements. The City also anticipates an increase in non-potable recycled water use that may also help offset imported water usage. The City desires to have the first direct potable reuse (DPR) application in CA where water from the new AWTF would be distributed to customers, depending on future finalized DPR regulations. The City is also considering brand new water sources including new wells near the airport, and the option to consider desalination in the future; these may be considered and analyzed further in optional Task 7.1.

3F. Update Domestic Water System Hydraulic Model
Model updates consist of accurate representation
of system infrastructure, applying updated demand
allocation, factors and patterns, and matching model
reactions to changing conditions such as pump starts
and stops to recent SCADA system data. The purpose of
this task is to bring the model up-to-date with current conditions within the system and bring the model to a
level of detail aligned with current industry trends. This will be accomplished by the Arcadis team with a mindset for
future use of the model and allow for easy of long-term model maintenance by the City.
Following a review of the GIS database, any necessary
revisions to model pipes will be performed in collaboration with the City. The current industry trend is for modeled pipes to have a one-to-one relationship with the associated GIS database.
Arcadis has developed multiple tools to allow for a
seamless GIS-model interoperability, as well as ongoing improvements available in the existing built-in tools within InfoWater modeling software. We will develop a clear and concise process to maintain this GIS integration and make sure appropriate updates are passed to the respective
systems. Any tools necessary to do this will be provided to the City for long-term model maintenance.
3G. Domestic Water System Hydraulic Model Calibration and Analysis visualize the calibration results at multiple locations and for multiple scenarios.
2. Similarly, we have developed computer scripts which
directly read the InfoWater database of comparison of
multiple scenarios within the model. This visualization of comparison provides an efficient means to
understand the impact of any changes during
calibration from adjustment to adjustment.
3. We will work closely with City staff during the
calibration process to understand any anomalies and
develop solutions. In consultation with City staff, we
will use a macro and a micro calibration approach for
the model calibration. During workshops and progress
meetings, we will collaboratively develop a set of
criteria for macro and micro calibration. For example,
Figure 9. Examples of model connectivity challenges that need resolved during model updates Examples of quality assurance and adjustments of
horizontal piping assets that are common include:
• Topology, connectivity, disconnected pipes, parallel
pipes, and intersecting pipes
• Nodes in close proximity, disconnected nodes, pipesplit candidates • Hydrants and hydrant laterals (their inclusion,
representation, connectivity, and model attributes)
• Diameter discrepancies and model representation with
facility boundaries
Examples of model updates to vertical assets such as
pumps, tanks, and valves, include the following and any other updates deemed necessary through the model
calibration effort:
• Confirm pump simulations align with the recent pump
test data and perform any necessary updates
• Confirm valve position and settings align with available operational data
• Where possible, headloss curves may be added to
better represent remotely controlled positioning valves • All control valves (such as Pressure Reducing Valves) will be reviewed for correct sizes, configuration, and
settings.
Model calibration is believed by the water industry to be the most technically challenging aspect of modeling (per a survey by the AWWA Engineering Modeling Applications
Committee). We bring a proven approach and unique
tools that will accelerate the model calibration process.
Blending our depth of calibration experience with innovative approaches proposed specifically for this project, we feel our plan offers efficient and effective methods resulting in an exceptional model of the City water distribution system.
Our approach consists of the following calibration tools:
1. Our team has developed computer scripts to directly
read the InfoWater database and bring results into
Microsoft Excel and PowerBI for automated comparison
of calibration data. This, along with calibration SCADA templates developed by our team, will make it easy to

the criteria could be that pressure at a node is within 4 pounds per square-inch (psi) of the measured data. During macro calibration parameters like pressure zone diurnal curves and demand at a node can be adjusted to match model pressures to field observed data. Alternatively, during micro calibration parameters like pipe roughness factors will be adjusted to match model results to observed data. City staff will be updated and consulted with before and after any major updates.
Available SCADA and hydrant testing data from the City will be utilized for model calibration to represent conditions for at least a 24-hour time period. An option to extend the project to include field data collection (Task 7) is also included which would supplement the City’s available data with additional pressure and hydrant flow data; this would improve data available and thus may improve calibration results. The measure of model calibration is the primary tool to communicate the level of confidence and representativeness of the model computer simulations to the actual system. Common measures define a threshold allowable variation for each measurement or as percentage variance.
However, every system has facilities which are more critical for the model than others. Prior to model calibration, the Arcadis Team will conduct a workshop with City staff to define an innovative measurement of calibration, considering multiple factors such as shape of a curve, difference in actual values, and importance of facilities.
Figure 10. Hydraulic Model Calibration Process Schematic. Documenting the complete process is important to our team so that the City modelers and staff can reference this in the future, and for confidence and buy-in of model calibration and capabilities.
Once the model calibration is complete, we will create necessary scenarios and data sets within the model for existing system conditions, future system conditions/demands, and various system evaluations. Master plans require a number of model scenarios to be developed under a variety of demand conditions. The Arcadis team is highly experienced with creating organized hierarchical structures for dozens (and even hundreds) of model runs. We know and understand the importance of setting scenarios up correctly the first time and making sure that the structure is flexible to accommodate additional scenarios in a logical framework.
To support the City’s management of its water system, Arcadis will identify system performance level of service requirements. These level of service requirements typically consist of acceptable thresholds for pressure, velocity, headloss gradient, tank turnover, water age, and water quality concentrations. Any areas of low system performance as defined by the level of service criteria established for the system will be reviewed with the City to help collaborate on system improvements that will be included in the CIP.
Arcadis also places emphasis on providing an exceptional customer experience for our projects. For this project, in addition to paper maps for results presentation throughout the project, we propose to offer results presentation through interactive online map and Analytic and Collaboration Environment (ACE) dashboards hosted within ESRI’s ArcGIS Online . This will allow the City and Stakeholders the ability to see interactive model results outside of model software, customized to a specific login. While paper maps are a great tool to visualize systemwide model output, the use of these online dashboards with interactive maps allow the user to zoom, select a specific pipe or node and see detailed results.

This will be used by the project team throughout execution to collaborate and see specific model status and results; these will be available for one month following final project deliverables and can also be transferred to the City for continued use.
Figure 11. Arcadis’s Analytics & Collaboration Environment (ACE). In addition to paper maps, model results throughout the project will be communicated to the City through ACE which allows the City to understand model output through an interactive platform and to select and see model output for any individual asset. 3H. Water Quality Regulations Analysis
Water quality regulatory landscape continue to evolve at the national and state levels. Regulations affecting water systems continue to become more stringent. Arcadis’ water quality experts will assist the City to navigate and stay proactive. There are several key regulatory actions that could impact the City’s operations and maintenance through the planning horizon. Based on our understanding of the City’s system, the ones to focus on are 1,4-dioxane. The City currently treats for 1,4-dioxane and VOCs at Arcadia WTP. A progressive design build project to address 1,4-dioxane is also underway at Arcadia WTP.
Although unlikely to affect the drinking water system, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) has been detected in the City stormwater and sewer flows feeding SMURRF so potential PFAS related regulations are another to keep track of. As an optional value-added service (see Task 7.4.4), Arcadis proposes to assess the potential for regulatory action under the Clean Water Act (CWA) and other regulations to affect discharges and examine potential alternatives for the management of RO concentrate and/or combined wastewater flows.
For this Task 3H, Arcadis will track the following regulations with the focus on 1,4-dioxane. • Third Six-Year Review
• Fourth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR4) • Fifth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR5) • Lead and Copper Rule Revisions
• Potential Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) related regulations • Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-6)
• 1,4-Dioxane
• Stage 3 M/DBP Rule
• Potential Arsenic Rule (California)
Additional to the above regulations, Arcadis will work with the City to identify other water quality related issues that may be of operational concerns such as nitrification. Our team will identify improvements that will be required to meet water quality regulations or solve water quality issues, and provide estimated capital costs and annual O&M.

3I - Capital Improvement Program
Development
Any areas of low system performance as defined by the level of service criteria established for the system will be reviewed and improvements identified to bring those areas into desired performance. Various alternatives will be reviewed to identify the optimal improvements considering capital and operations impacts. All recommended improvements will be discussed in detail with the City.
The ultimate deliverable of a master plan project is a
concise, defensible, economical and implementable Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP will include identified hydraulic and other improvements and incorporate other
projects identified by the City. Arcadis will work with the City to develop a prioritized CIP with a reasonable payback period.
Planning level capital costs will be developed for all identified projects using recent bid tabs, project budgets and contractor costs to calculate unit costs for replacement or rehabilitation.
If the information is not available, Arcadis will develop unit costs based on experience with similar projects in California and/ or manufacturer’s cost opinions.
3J. Domestic Water System Hydraulic Model
Training
Water distribution system analysis has grown increasingly complex as both hardware and software functionality has allowed operators, engineers and utility manager to ask new and different questions. Arcadis regularly performs training on distribution system theory, software use,
model functionality, system analysis, and model
maintenance.
Training of the City’s staff on the model will be critical for its ongoing use. This task will include preparation of training materials, a modeling manual, three full-day
hands-on training sessions (24-hours) on InfoWater
Software and the City’s model use for up to 6 City staff. A custom training agenda will be developed and provided
for input and review by the City prior to development of the training content. Training provided by Arcadis includes a variety of instructor-led presentations, hands-on model use via exercises, review of training documentation and manuals, and question and answer sessions.
Task 4 Sewer Main Video Inspection
The City desires to perform a closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection of approximately 2,000 ft of sewer pipes to support the Sewer Master Plan.
Arcadis will contract with National Plant Services, Inc. (NPS) to perform the CCTV inspection. The intent is to inspect the pipe using CCTV equipment to examine and record the internal condition of the pipe. A camera will be driven or pulled through each section of pipe, and the operator will stop the camera to observe at any abnormality or defect spotted as well as note laterals and waterline marks. Each lateral, defect, or other abnormality will be classified and documented per NASSCO PACP standards.
NPS owns and operates fifteen (15) CCTV Inspection vehicles.
Each truck is equipped with two (2) cameras and repair parts.
NPS will use a data capture software, and use NASSCO PACP coding when performing inspections. All cameras used will be able to pan 360 degrees of the pipe and have a minimum resolution of 720 x 480. Cameras will have auto focus and zoom as well as sufficient lighting. National Plant Services will notify the City and Arcadis whenever the camera will not pass or finds an imminent pipe failure.
Our Quality Control team will take the maps provided the by Arcadis and develop an inspection schedule with milestones that ensure the City timeline is met. Data will be compiled and reviewed by our QA/QC team in the office on a weekly basis. They will make sure that the video is captured in the correct format, that all the defects are properly noted per NASSCO PACP standards, that the overlays display the correct information, and that a quality product is delivered. Any inspections that do not pass our Quality Control standards will be re-inspected at our cost.
After setting up traffic control, the area around the manhole will be checked with a gas monitor to assure there are not Task 4 Objective:

toxic fumes present. If the manhole was sealed prior to opening, it will be resealed when it is closed. The inspection will begin at the uppermost manhole of the segment to be recorded.
The camera will be inserted into the line and the required information will be input into the software with the appropriate overlay. The camera will travel down the line at a rate no greater than 30 feet per minute. Defects, laterals, etc. will be noted per PACP guidelines. The daily footage and locations can be relayed to the City’s field manager daily or as frequently as desired.
The Quality Control Department will then gather all the data and merge into one database. This database along with corresponding videos, pictures, and log sheets will be submitted.
Along with the data, a summary will be provided using log sheets detailing the inspection. Each line segment will be represented along with the footages of defects, laterals, etc.
An Excel sheet will be provided that has the line segments with their ‘Quickscore’ rating and can be sorted to show all the ‘5’s, ‘4’s, etc. This will assist the City with laying out future CIP projects and determining immediate needs.

Task 5 Manhole Flow Monitoring
The reliability of a sewer model is fundamentally dependent on the quality of data applied to its calibration. To streamline the program and provide cost-efficiency, we will assist the City in optimizing the flow monitoring program to maximize its benefit and identify monitoring locations most suitable for model calibration. Past flow monitoring locations will be discussed with the City to determine if these sites are suitable for the proposed monitoring effort. By utilizing past locations, comparisons can be made directly as to the impact of growth and/or conservation efforts.
Arcadis, in collaboration with V&A, will provide temporary sewer flow monitoring services at 20 monitoring locations for a minimum of 14 days. The flow monitoring program will be conducted concurrently with rainfall monitoring at two (2) locations. Depth and velocity data as well as rainfall data will be recorded at 5-minute intervals. Accurate and reproducible flow metering data are critical to all subsequent evaluations and form the basis for refining the model calibration.
The City has indicated that 20 sites are to be flow monitored, and Arcadis will collaborate with the City to confirm the site selections. The traditional criteria for flow monitoring locations include:
• Past monitoring sites (pros and cons of each site)
• Critical locations in the sewer system
• Isolate a specific land use or area of interest where possible
• Has no drop connections, backwater conditions, and
hydraulic jumps
• Easy to access and avoids high-risk traffic locations • Avoids redundancy with permanent flow monitoring
locations
Planning and preparing for data collection is equally
important as collecting the information. This task will include a flow and rainfall monitoring data collection plan laying the foundation for all aspects of field data collection activities.
The data collection plan will formalize the flow and rainfall monitoring for the overall collection system so that an optimized level of monitoring data is available. The plan will outline procedures for evaluating the monitoring data and qualifying if enough suitable data has been collected for model calibration purposes.
Task 5 Objective:
• To conduct sewer flow monitoring to obtain field
data for hydraulic model calibration.
Task 5 Meetings:
• Flow Monitoring Locations Selection Meeting
• Flow Monitoring Results Review Meeting
Task 5 Deliverables:
• As an appendix to the Sewer Master Plan,
the flow monitoring and rainfall effort will
be documented. The appendix will include a
description of each site, the data quality review
findings and a database containing the flow and
rainfall data.
Arcadis’ proven approach to reviewing flow data on a regular basis will be utilized to ensure quality data is collected and to flag any suspect data for prompt field investigation and correction. Data will be analyzed to confirm flow rates are reasonable compared to the water consumption data and that the depth and velocity data responds reasonably to rainfall data. Using Arcadis’ rainfall analysis tool, the captured rainfall events will quickly be processed to identify the magnitude of each storm and to evaluate the spatial variability as the storm event moves across the City. These tools and this approach to reviewing data and proactively identifying suspect readings will increase the City’s confidence in the calibrated model. At the conclusion of the master plan study, the flow monitoring effort will be summarized in the report and the data will be provided to the City.

Task 6 Preparation of Sewer Master Plan
6A. Executive Summary
Interpreting the recommendations and findings in the
Sewer Master Plan is critical for the City to ensure long term growth needs are met. Recognizing that the City’s
leadership and stakeholders need to be able to effectively and efficiently understand the Master Plan, Arcadis
proposes to deliver tools that are accessible and convey the impacts of the various Master Plan components. The
executive summary document and ESRI Story Maps with
dynamic results will be developed similar to those found in the Water Master Plan (Task 3).
6B. Sanitary Sewer System Description
The City’s sanitary sewer system is tributary to the Coastal Interceptor Sewer (CIS) which discharges to the City of Los Angeles’ Hyperion Wastewater Treatment Plant (HTP).
Flow is monitored at two, permanent metering stations
at the upstream (LA-1) and downstream end (SM-1) of the City’s connections to the CIS. Within the City, there are approximately 150 miles of sewers (both gravity and force mains) and over 2,800 manholes. The sewers range in size from 4 to 70 inches and consist of primarily vitrified clay pipe (VCP). The Moss Avenue Pump Station (MAPS) has a
capacity of 26 MGD and moves flow along the CIS.
The current sanitary sewer system configuration will be reviewed and updated to reflect system improvements
since the 2017 Sanitary Sewer System Master Plan
(developed by HDR). The operation of the MAPS will
also be confirmed to ensure the pumping scheme and
capacities are represented in the model.
6C. Historical and Current Sewage Flow Rate
Arcadis will use flow monitoring data (Task 5), available historic data, and data from the three monitoring stations to estimate dry weather flow by using EPA Sanitary Sewer Overflow Analysis and Planning (SSOAP) toolbox. The
estimated dry weather comprises base wastewater flow

(BWF) with weekday and weekend diurnal patterns and
groundwater infiltration (GWI). The Average Dry Weather Flow (ADWF) and Peak Dry Weather flows (PDWF) will
be calculated for each flow monitor. The estimated dry
weather flow components will then be distributed to the parcels based on water consumption data in collaboration with Task 3. Flow from each parcel will then be allocated to the manhole closest to the parcel centrode. Care will be taken to evaluate BWF rates are reasonable given the population and sources of flow, and the GWI components
will be compared to industry standards to flag suspect
sources and data. If rainfall events occur during the flow monitoring period, the flow data will be decomposed to
identify the Rainfall Derived Inflow and Infiltration (RDII) component. Understanding the RDII will allow for the
peak flows to be extrapolated to Peak Wet Weather Flow
(PWWF) to represent the influence of wet weather. If the current flow monitoring effort does not capture any wet weather events, historical rainfall from past monitoring efforts will be used in conjunction with data from past monitors or the City’s permanent monitoring stations.
The peaking factors will also be compared with factors used by neighboring and similar sized systems. The estimated peaking factors will be applied to each sewershed in
addition to the dry weather flows in the model.
6D. Future Sewage Flow Rate
Although the City’s service area is fairly built out, the potential for additional growth along with continued
water conservations efforts will impact future flow rates.
A population based approach to flow development is
appropriate because of the following:
• Requires fewer flow meters than land use approach

• Supports future projects using per capita flow to
estimate future flows for development, plans, or designs.
Arcadis will use the City’s planning data (e.g. redevelopment) along with population projections to estimate future flows within the service area for both
the near term (2025) and long term (2040) horizons. The projected water demands from the service area will also be used to truth check future wastewater flow from the
service area. ADWF, PDWF and PWWF will be developed
for each sewershed for both planning horizons.
6E. Update Sewer System Hydraulic Model
Arcadis proposes to use the City’s GIS data supplemented by record drawings to incorporate recent sewer
improvement projects into the existing InfoSewer model.
The data will also be processed using Arcadis’ Data Profiler tool to flag missing or suspect attributes (such as missing diameters or incompatible inverts). The model will include all major trunk sewers and tributary sewers (6-inches
and larger) owned by the City. Special attention will be given to confirming the configuration of the MAPS in the model, as well as the two monitoring stations. Ensuring these components are not only properly constructed in
the model but also that the operating rules are simulated correctly will drive the confidence in the model’s ability to mimic flow rates.
6F. Sewer System Hydraulic Model Calibration
and Analysis
In keeping with EPA guidance, Arcadis’ approach relies
primarily on graphical “goodness of fit” comparisons of model and monitored data to assess model calibration.
In addition, we provide suggested quantitative figures
for assessing model calibration. Close collaboration with the City’s Operations staff is essential to our approach to model calibration. Calibration will be comprised of dry and wet weather calibration.
The flow data will be loaded into the models and
simulation will be performed for the period in which flows are monitored. The model or simulated results will be
compared to the observed flow monitoring data.
E // 1.5 PROJECT WORK PLAN
Dry Weather Calibration
At the temporary monitoring locations and three
permanent monitoring, the model will be calibrated to dry weather flows, including weekend and weekday diurnal
patterns and base ground water. Arcadis will:
• Verify that the model is routing dry weather flows
correctly. Review system for possible connectivity
errors.
• Compare measured and modeled flow depths
adjusting Manning’s “n” as needed, or identifying the
cause of discrepancies.
Wet Weather Calibration
Wet weather calibration will depend on the storms that
occur during flow monitoring. If storms are captured during the flow monitoring, wet weather calibration will consist of:
• Storm events at the installed flow meters on a single event basis.
• Adjusting parameters to simulate the rainfall-induced flow response of the system for each storm event.
• Adjusting hydrologic parameters as needed to
generate volume and peak flow.
• Comparing peak flow, total volume and surcharge
depth to develop a robust planning tool for future flow projections and system analyses.
If no significant rain events are captured during the flow monitoring period, wet weather calibration will not be
performed. Peaking factors will be used for capacity
analysis after validation from the permanent flow
monitoring data.
6G. Capital Improvement Program
Development
The development of a feasible and affordable Capital
Improvement Program drives the City’s ability to
proactively manage future growth and the impacts of
changes in the sewer system’s need to convey flow. To
achieve this, the Level of Service (LOS) goals and preferred future projects must be identified.
Level of Service Goals
Level of Service (LOS) goals are necessary to define
acceptable conditions for the City under specified
situations. The acceptability may change based on location, size of pipe, and weather conditions. Arcadis will work with the City to either establish or review existing LOS criteria that will be used to trigger recommended improvements.
Capacity Assessment or Analysis of System Deficiencies
Once the LOS goals are established, the calibrated model will be used to evaluate the collection system’s response during dry and wet weather events for both existing
conditions, 2025 and 2040 conditions.
The following dynamic scenarios will be created for
As the City has an existing sewer
model, we anticipate the physical
network is well developed and
validated. The fee estimate only
reflects the effort to incorporate
recent sewer projects as scoped. Any
hydraulic conflicts in the existing
model may result in additional effort
and will be discussed with the City.

• Average Dry Weather Flows
• Peak Dry Weather Flows
• Peak Wet Weather Flows
The recommended CIP and the resulting master plan will
provide a defensible and feasible pathway for the City to implement over the next 20 years. Understanding that
cost is a significant driver in the CIP, Arcadis will use recent bid tabs, regional costing tools and manufacturer’s cost opinions to develop costs for each project. Prioritization of each project will be aligned with the City’s goals and potential Water system projects. The CIP will include
identified hydraulic and other improvements and
incorporate other projects identified by the City. The
ultimate goal is to develop a unified CIP that includes a holistic approach to manage the City’s water and sewer
systems.
6H. Sewer System Map Preparation
The sewer system evaluation maps and dashboards using
the ArcGIS Online and Arcadis’ ACE platform will also be utilized similar to the Domestic Water Master Plan (Task 3). Sewer model results with interactive maps will allow the City and Stakeholders the ability to see results outside of model software and will support collaboration of the capital improvement program with the entire project team. 6I. Sewer System Hydraulic Model Training
Arcadis intends to help the City become familiar with the hydraulic models from the vetting process onward and
help build its understanding of the software as the project develops. Our goal is for the City’s staff to have a comfort level before the hand off occurs. Arcadis will advise the City of any hardware, software, or licensing requirements necessary to efficiently use the model for future system analysis.
While in-person training sessions are preferred as the
trainer can better read the room and provide more
efficient coaching and support, Arcadis is prepared to
provide virtual training, in lieu of or in addition to the inperson training. We have training materials ready-to-go for Innovyze software and others that can be tailored to the City’s specific requirements. The training will cover sanitary sewer system theory, software use, model
functionality, system analysis, and model maintenance.
The three-day training will include a variety of instructorled presentations, hands-on model use exercises, review or training documentation and manuals, and Q&A sessions.
As an alternative, Arcadis will offer the option of “learn as we go” training to allow the City’s staff to be trained as each step in the modeling task is completed. This
approach distributes the training across the duration of the project and allows the trainees to learn in more frequent, but shorter sessions. We have successfully used both
approaches and will work with the City to determine the ideal training method for their staff.
Arcadis will develop a Model Reference Manual to
identify details of the model facilities, controls, and model assumptions for each model provided. The manual will also address maintenance by identifying components, such as
defining triggers for updates, who performs the updates, and specific process for performing the updates.
Arcadis can also assist the City to coordinate the purchase of new model software packages.

Arcadis regularly implements a phased evaluation
approach with stakeholder engagement throughout
the process so that relevant potential alternatives are considered, the evaluation criteria and criteria weighting are well-defined and are supported by all stakeholders. The evaluations will be based on hydraulic simulations (for both water and sewer as necessary) to evaluate if any additional infrastructure is necessary, such as transmission mains, tank mixing systems, and impacts to any pump operations and energy. Workshops will be conducted with the City
and stakeholders led by our team of technical experts
to discuss and summarize the criteria and weighting,
identification of all potential alternatives and screening to feasible alternatives for further evaluation and selection.
While final alternatives will be
determined based on discussions
with the City, Task 7.1 currently plans
to evaluate three water treatment
scenarios. Arcadis will collaborate with
the City team to further develop the
water treatment scenarios that could
include:
1. New groundwater treatment plant
at the Santa Monica Airport
2. Seawater desalination facility that
utilizes existing, permitted seawater
extraction wells, and a new
desalinization treatment facility
3. Integration of new potable reuse
supplies from regional partners (e.g.,
LADWP Operation Next treated
water augmentation at the airport
and/or MWDSC Regional Recycled
Water Program)
An evaluation matrix will summarize all
options, criteria and weighting so that it
is transparent how the selection for the
optimal alternative was made, and the
decision tool will be a dynamic Microsoft
Excel-based tool that will allow the City
to modify weightings should conditions
change in the future without having to
purchase and learn new software. Our
team of technical experts understands
E // 1.5 PROJECT WORK PLAN
the likelihood of unintended consequences as well. We will provide input to consider unintended consequences as a
result of distribution system changes.
We understand that often the best option is a
combination of improvements that together make up a
wining alternative (for example, combining the new water treatment plant at the airport with transmission main
improvements that support changes in water conveyance).
This matrix will be used to identify which combined set of options is the best alternative for the City moving
forward in order to achieve regulatory acceptance while also providing the most cost-effective, timely and efficient means to do so.
Task 7.2 – Supplemental CCTV Inspection
Additional CCTV Inspection locations will be identified based on City input and/or on review of the existing system information in GIS. Ideally additional inspections should be identified during the kickoff meeting to minimize the mobilization efforts of the CCTV subconsultant. The CCTV inspections will follow the procedures and deliverables outlined in Task 4.

Task 7.3 – Supplemental Sewer Flow Monitoring
The scoped two-week flow monitoring program in Task 5 may not capture enough dry weather flow data or any significant rainfall events to support model calibration. This supplemental task allows the City to extend the flow monitoring period in two week increments at a minimum of 10 sites. A longer sewer flow monitoring program presents a greater opportunity to capture multiple rainfall events and will increase confidence in the development of ADWF and PDWF values. During the initial siting discussions in Task 5, the City and Arcadis will identify the 5 highest priority sites (of the 20 sites) should the supplement sewer flow monitoring task be authorized. If, after reviewing the initial two weeks of data, the City determines that the supplemental sewer flow monitoring should be conducted at new sites, Arcadis will work with the City to identify ideal sites. As done in Task 5, the supplemental flow monitoring data will be reviewed and utilized to support the modeling in Task 6.
Task 7.4 – Value Added Services
The City is interested in additional services that add value beyond the base scope, but will further support and enhance the domestic water and sewer master plans. The following subtasks are described further in detail that also highlight their benefits to the City:

; 7.4.2 - Risk-based Domestic Water Master Plan
; 7.4.3 - Risk-based Sewer Master Plan
; 7.4.4 - Concentrate (Brine) Evaluation
; 7.4.5 - AMI Technical Assistance
7.4.1 Field Data Collection
The domestic water model will be calibrated to verify hydraulic representations are accurate before using it for any analysis or decision-making during Task 3. However, depending on the level of accuracy required for informed decision making, and the amount of distribution system data available, an optional field data collection task should also be considered to support calibration efforts.
The Arcadis team consisting of water distribution system experts with backgrounds in distribution operations, planning and engineering understand the importance of accurate and reliable field data for calibration of hydraulic and water quality models. Arcadis regularly performs and trains utility personnel on proper hydrant operation, performing hydrant flushing and flow testing, performing pressure and flow monitoring, and proper sampling for water quality measurement.
A field data collection plan will be developed and reviewed by all necessary stakeholders to incorporate feedback for an effective and accurate field data collection effort. Based on our understanding of the City’s water distribution system, we propose the following efforts for field data collection to support model calibration:
Pressure survey:
ο Up to 10 temporary hydrant pressure recorders (Trimble HPR-31) installed for a period of 1 week during Summer 2022 with security covers and a common keyed lock with keys provided to the City. ο Arcadis owns and maintains a fleet of over 120 hydrant pressure recorders, so additional recorders or additional duration can be provided at an additional project cost if needed. Hydrant Flow Testing:
ο A quantity of up to 10 hydrant fire flow tests will be performed throughout the City ο Select locations may also be identified for pipe roughness (Hazen-Williams C-factor) flow tests concurrent with fire flow testing locations. These will be located strategically so that this test is performed simply with the addition of another pressure recorder to the fire flow test.
A four-phase workflow will be implemented to ensure the correct data (quantity and location) is collected, the correct procedure is executed, and the appropriate documentation is recorded and communicated. The workflow consists of: Identify, Prepare, Execute and Record. The Identify phase will implement a scientific approach to selecting the correct locations for sample collection and measurement and the Prepare phase will well-equip the field teams for understanding specific location details. The Execute phase will consist of Arcadis experts supported by City operators performing the testing. In the Record phase specific information regarding the test, equipment, and location will be collected using mobile tools. The Arcadis Team will closely coordinate with the City to develop a proposed field data collection plan for calibration which will be submitted for approval by the City.

Proper data collection is critical to successful model calibration, and our team brings industry-leading subject matter expert in hydrant flow testing, including our task lead Ben Chenevey. Mr. Chenevey has performed water distribution system testing at nearly 400 different locations across the nation and regularly trains field crews, utilities, federal agencies, and other consultants in proper flow testing.
Key considerations include test placement, equipment accuracy, and confirming a sufficient decrease from static to residual pressure for the test to be considered valid. Our team uses dashboards and analytics developed by performing hundreds of flow tests across the US and globally to understand test and data validity. In the photo here, two ports on a single hydrant were opened to achieve sufficient pressure drop. This is important in selecting proper test locations as well, so that good quality data can be collected for model calibration, while also considering and minimizing the amount of non-revenue water that is flowed out of the system for model calibration.
7.4.2 Risk-based Domestic Water Master Plan
Effective asset management is a critical component of a water master plans. Asset management provides the risk-based framework by which rehab & replacement (R&R) and growth projects are prioritized, and capital and operations budgets are developed and managed. Arcadis is a national leader in asset management and assists our clients in developing asset management programs to meet long-term customer service level objectives and develop risk-based prioritization and funding programs. It is anticipated that this optional task will use a structured asset management framework to complete a desktop condition assessment and risk-based prioritization of projects to ultimately feed into the domestic water CIP and master plan developed in the main scope (Task 3). Arcadis is a national leader in asset management with the skills to assist our clients in developing ISO 55000 compliant asset management programs and applying IIMM standards to meet their financial, sustainability, reliability, and level of service goals. Our asset management service offerings include strategy development, business planning, infrastructure condition assessment and capital and O&M planning. Our Arcadis staff lead and serve on AWWA and WRF Asset Management Committees at the National and Local Levels. We have recently contributed to AWWA Manual M77 Condition Assessment of Water Mains and will bring that experience on desktop risk assessment to this project.
For the desktop pipeline condition assessment, the Arcadis team has a proven approach and existing Renewal and Replacement Planning System (RRPS) tool that can be leveraged to complete the assessment as well as support the overall risk analysis process for all domestic water system pipeline assets. For the pipelines, the approach begins with an analysis of age, materials, diameters and past break history to understand potential factors causing failures such as corrosive soils, high groundwater tables, pressure surges, etc. Cohorts, pipelines with similar behavior will be established and deterioration curves generated based on estimated useful life per cohort. capacity and other service level failures can be integrated into the analysis through GIS. A demo of the Arcadis RRPS tool as well as an overview of the approach will be discussed during the kickoff meeting, and City input will be incorporated into the final methodology.
Features of the RRPS Decision Support Tool
RRPS Function Description
Asset Inventory Accepts full asset inventory from GIS and CMMS with asset ID and attribute information.
Effective Useful Life Assigns EUL based on asset class with an unlimited number of classes and creates deterioration curves. Data tables have reference EULs from previous projects.
Condition Assessment Follows full IIMM best practices for physical and performance scoring using a 1-5 rating and customized category weighting.
Consequence of Failure Also follows IIM best practices, including triple bottom line consequence of failure evaluation and redundancy allowances if desired.
Cost Estimating Follows AACE Level 5 guidance
Rehabilitation vs Replace Considers rehabilitate versus replace based on risk, condition, location and EUL.
Project Definitions Assets are assigned to projects following a facility hierarchy, geography or programmatically by asset type, cost and risk.
CIP Scenarios Calculates system wide metrics for condition, risk and annual cost based on service level goals, set investment amounts or both.

The Arcadis RRPS tool will be configured to evaluate the condition of the pipelines through a desktop analysis
leveraging the pipe attribute information available in
GIS, the past failure history from Cityworks or other files, interviews with knowledgeable staff and applying any
established service levels or industry standard decay
curves to determine what year replacement is required
to address physical condition. The outcomes from
hydraulic modeling will be incorporated in addition to staff interviews to score the other failure modes for the pipeline assets.
In addition to the likelihood of failure determined by
the desktop condition assessment, risk considers the
criticality or consequence of failure and the availability of redundancy to mitigate failure impacts. The risk scores normalize the evaluation and provide for an “apples
to-apples” comparison to prioritize projects for assets of different types and functions. The criticality criteria will be developed for the pipeline assets following the triple bottom line principal, which incorporates the economic, social and environmental impacts of a failure. Arcadis will provide examples of consequence scoring from similar
planning projects, including California utilities, to assist the City in developing the optimum scoring approach. Applying the scoring standards developed through collaboration
with the City, the Arcadis team will work to score asset criticality and risk. It is anticipated that all pipeline assets will be scored using GIS queries; the RRPS tool accepts input from this process and will calculate the overall risk score considering redundancy.
Based upon the pipeline asset condition and risk score
results, the domestic water master plan (Task 3) will be expanded with additional logical projects that are created and evaluated using the RRPS tool. For pipeline assets, the pipelines will be grouped by risk score, replacement year, and geography to identify specific pipes requiring replacement due to growth and condition. A workshop
will be held with the City to review the major alternatives evaluated for pipelines to review annual funding needs
for various service level scenarios to select the best fit for the City balancing funding, condition, and risk objectives.
The RRPS tool will be used to prepare the scenarios and for review with the City. Comments from the City will be incorporated into the final alternatives selections. Not only will these risk-based results and capital improvements
be incorporated into a more complete domestic water
master plan, but they can also subsequently be used
for asset management program work in the future.
7.4.3 Risk-based Sewer Master Plan
Effective asset management is also a critical component of a sewer master plans. Asset management provides the
risk-based framework by which rehab & replacement and
growth projects are prioritized, and capital and operations budgets are developed and managed. It is anticipated that this optional task will use a structured asset management framework to complete a desktop condition assessment
and risk-based prioritization of projects to ultimately feed into the sewer CIP and master plan developed in the main scope (Task 6). The same approach detailed in Optional
Task 7.4.2 (Risk-based Domestic Water Master Plan) will be followed with the sewer system to develop risk evaluations of all sewer mains.
For this desktop sewer main condition assessment, the
Arcadis team has a proven approach and existing Renewal and Replacement Planning System (RRPS) tool that can be leveraged to complete the assessment as well as support the overall risk analysis process for all sewer system
pipeline assets. Based upon the sewer main asset condition and risk score results, the sewer master plan (Task 6) will be expanded with additional logical projects that are
created and evaluated using the RRPS tool. Not only will these risk-based results and capital improvements
be incorporated into a more complete sewer master
plan, but they can also subsequently be used for asset
management program work in the future.
7.4.4 Concentrate (Brine) Evaluation
As a component of the City’s multifaceted effort to
become water-independent, it is expanding the production of water resources via potable reuse and brackish
groundwater desalination, both of which utilize reverse osmosis (RO) and generate a concentrate residuals stream.
The new RO systems at the SMURRF and AWTF will add
concentrate discharge flows to the sewer system, as will the expansion of the Arcadia WTP. However, because the
SMURRF treats both stormwater and coastal aquifer flows, while the AWTF purifies recycled wastewater – all with
concentrate water quality disparate from each other and the Arcadia WTP concentrate – these new RO systems will change the quality of the blended wastewater supplies.
Moreover, the additional concentrate from all three RO
systems will increase the percent contribution of more
saline supplies comprising the City’s wastewater, likewise altering the water quality. The additional concentrate flow will be somewhat moderated by the incorporation of Flow Reversal RO technology at the Arcadia facility to increase recovery, although the higher recovery will also intensify the concentrate quality.
Further compounding the combined concentrate (and
blended wastewater) quality variation, the SMURRF source water will fluctuate with stormwater flows, thus altering the quality of its brine intermittently, and the brackish groundwater supply treated at SMURRF is anticipated to
become more saline in future years. As a result, for the purposes of comprehensive planning, it is important
for the City to fully understand the impact of these
changes on both the quantity and quality of the
concentrate flows and their influence on collected
wastewater.
In assisting the City with this effort, Arcadis will first characterize the projected changes to the City’s sewer
flow – both quality and quantity – including the anticipated variability based on known SMURRF source water supply
boundary conditions and water quality data collected
under implementation of the SWIP. The potential impact

source water will also be evaluated. This fully characterized profile of the future concentrate / blended sewer flows will be compared to current sewer flows and quality
to understand the pending changes and assess the
potential for impact on the City’s discharge permits and/ or agreements with LA Sanitation & Environment (LASAN)
which receives the City’s wastewater at the Hyperion
Water Reclamation Plant.
Due to the known presence of PFAS in both the City
stormwater and sewer flows, Arcadis will also assess the potential for regulatory action under the Clean Water
Act (CWA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) to affect
discharges (e.g., numerical limits, treatment, industrial pretreatment programs, etc.). This assessment will also examine potential alternatives for the management of RO concentrate and/or combined wastewater flows that may
be necessary as result of such regulatory action. A detailed technical memorandum will be generated to capture this
comprehensive concentrate evaluation, which may be
incorporated into the Master Plan Updates, at the City’s discretion.
7.4.5 AMI Technical Assistance
Project Understanding
Arcadis understands that the City has piloted three AMI systems over the last several years and is now ready to move forward with a full procurement and implementation for approximately 18,400 meters. We know this will be a turnkey project of a cellular AMI system implemented over the next two years. Our experienced AMI experts offer
services that will ensure the successful implementation of your AMI project and exploit it to achieve broader
goals. Our staff possesses deep technical and managerial experience in areas such as metering, customer service, engineering, information technology, and business
consulting. Arcadis’ role as Owner’s agent will streamline your implementation efforts and reduce overall project
risks. The following six areas described below provides detail on the consulting services we recommend for the
City’s AMI project. Arcadis is flexible to scope a project that meets your needs while achieving the key targeted
outcomes of the project.
“We can help the City meet its goals of
improving meter reading efficiency, move to
monthly billing, engage customers with water
usage and conservation efforts and validate
these efforts, as well as minimize water loss
through non-revenue water initiatives.”
1) System Selection Consulting and Contract
Negotiations
With the City’s release of an AMI System solicitation,
Arcadis can support the City’s evaluation team with the understanding of technical capabilities and proposed
pricing. We will provide clarity and explanation to support understanding of the responses, as well as a perform
a lifecycle pricing comparison to support the team’s
selection process. After vendor selection, Arcadis will provide AMI expertise to support the City with the contract development and contract negotiations. A strong contract is an important tool to manage risks that are inherent in an AMI project. Our experienced practitioners have negotiated multiple AMI contracts that cover all project elements.
E // 1.5 PROJECT WORK PLAN
Our efforts will result in a contract that is favorable to the City, specifically in areas such as:
3 product warranties and remedies
3 excessive failure warranties
3 system performance
3 service levels
2) Program and Project Management
Our role is owner’s agent for the City throughout the AMI project. Our project management services include items
such as schedule management, scope management
and change control, resource management, project risk
management, project documentation maintenance, and
conducting status meetings and developing status reports. 3) Public Outreach Support and Customer
Communication
The AMI system implementation effort will require
targeted and consistent communication to inform
stakeholders, excite them about the benefits, and garner their support for the transition to an AMI system. Arcadis typically recommends that a customer communication
program be initiated early in the project, starting with the development of a communication plan. To develop the
communication plan, our team will perform the following activities:
; Communication Planning Workshop. We will facilitate
a workshop with the City project team members
and Public Information Office stakeholders to gain
consensus among the decision makers about an
appropriate communication strategy. The outcome will
be the development of a Communications Plan.
; Communication Plan Development. We will draft a
communication plan which includes the key strategies,
tactics, and communications management. These
customer communications strategies will be aligned
with the project timeline.
Quick-Launch Materials. We have found that having a
base set of informational materials very quickly into the project is important, as it is possible for residents and DocuSign Envelope ID: D940A0DF-4128-4831-9C25-2183562C1776

7.4.6 Sewer Model Conversion
Scope of Work
The City currently uses Innovyze InfoSewer model to perform hydraulic analyses of its sanitary sewer system. The simulation of sewer system in the existing InfoSewer model is unsatisfactory and Innovyze is discontinuing InfoSewer software in the 2023-24 timeframe. The City is exploring alternatives to its existing software as part of the Sewer Master Plan Update effort. Arcadis has preliminarily recommended three feasible sewer system software alternatives including PCSWMM, Innovyze ICM and SewerGEMS for City’s consideration. The existing InfoSewer model must be converted to a compatible format for the selected software. The Scope of Work is structured to provide smooth transition from existing InfoSewer model to City selected software model.
Task 1- Sewer Model Conversion
Arcadis will convert the City’s existing InfoSewer sewer network model to the selected software model.
The task comprises of following steps:
Determination of scenario and sewer networks
The existing InfoSewer model has 7 scenarios and respective sewer networks and loadings.
Arcadis will work with the City to determine the necessary scenarios and sewer networks for the project.
Sewer network export
Arcadis will export the sewer network for each scenario from the existing InfoSewer model. The model export might be in the form of shapefiles or direct export to other software if compatible. Processing of the exported format
Based on the software that the city selects, Arcadis will convert the exported sewer network to compatible format for import. This format might be InfoSWMM format or shapefiles depending on the selected software.
Import of the sewer network
Arcadis will import the sewer network for all the scenario to the selected software. Sewer network comparison
Once the import is complete, Arcadis will review and compare the imported model with the existing InfoSewer model to ensure model components and scenario were correctly imported.
Assumptions:
City will provide complete sewer network model and related data as requested by Arcadis.

3B. Domestic Water System
Description
The domestic water system will be
reviewed to accurately understand
and document all facilities, capacities,
and processes, as well as a developing
complete representation of the existing
domestic water distribution system.
The City’s domestic water system has
four sources entering the distribution
system: two MWD feeder services,
Santa Monica Well 1, and the Arcadia
Water Treatment Plant. Both MWD
connections are 24” diameter and can
maintain a hydraulic grade capable of
direct service to all three pressure zones
within the City’s service area. Typically,
the distribution system demand is
served between 30 - 40% through
these MWD connections, and the rest
is supplied from City owned ground
water wells. Multiple reservoirs are also
connected to the distribution system
including Riviera Reservoir, Mt Olivette
Reservoir, and San Vicente Reservoir. Figure 7. Potable Water System Map from 2020 Urban Water Management Plan 3C. Historical and Current Water Use
The City’s water consumption has dropped in recent
years due largely to conservation efforts by the City
across the customer base. Declines in consumption also
can result in additional water quality challenges due to localized areas of increased water age. Reviewing historical consumption data to identify trends in consumption based on location and customer class will be important for better understanding the future direction of water use. We will work with our partner Maddaus, who is currently looking at water use data as part of the conservation plan, to review finished water production for the entire system, pressure zone flows, and residential, commercial, and industrial customer metered usage. The difference between
production and billed usage will be used to determine
non-revenue water, which will also be broken out for each pressure zone. Minimal non-revenue water has historically been observed by the City (1.6% in 2016 and negative in more recent years – like due to metering inaccuracies), so calculated values will be corroborated with other reports and the City’s experiences to use the best estimate for modeling.
Once base demands are established, demand scaling
factors must be identified to extrapolate demands
allocated to each customer meter location to project
average, maximum daily, and peak hourly system flow
conditions unique to each pressure zone and customer
class. Our deep technical knowledge of modeling, demand forecasting and planning will ensure the results of this task provide realistic and practical factors throughout each hour of the day.
Seasonal, daily and hourly demands vary from
community to community based on variables, such as
climate, climate change, customer types, and areas of
irrigation based on economic factors. It is important that appropriate demand peaking factors be selected so that
water system improvements are not unduly oversized,
thus increasing costs and creating water quality concerns.
Our technical experts will work with the City to review the data to determine appropriate factors to use for each pressure zone while considering the impacts on systemwide peak demands.
Diurnal patterns reflect the varying usage of water
throughout a typical day and are important for
understanding not only the impact of peak demand
conditions on the performance of the distribution system, but also the impact of low demand periods on water
quality, which allows the City to better understand these and simulate improvements to address any challenges.
Representative demand patterns will be developed
for each pressure zone based on flow data and water
balances for each area.
In addition to average, max, and peak demand conditions, maximum day demand plus fire flow (MDD+FF) will
also be developed. One of the primary factors in sizing, operating and designing water distribution infrastructure is meeting specific capacity requirements to provide
adequate fire suppression. Various guidance manuals are relied on to support this, including AWWA M32, AWWA
M17, and NFPA 291, but many systems establish general
required fire flow guidelines depending on the customer type or land use type. Based on our team’s industry
DocuSign Envelope ID: D940A0DF-4128-4831-9C25-2183562C1776 DocuSign Envelope ID: D940A0DF-4128-4831-9C25-2183562C1776

expertise, and through coordination with the City, the correct MDD+FF demand will be identified for use during model development and system evaluations. This way the most appropriate fire suppression guidelines will be applied when sizing future capital improvements.
3D. Future Water Use
Modeling future demand projections is a critical component of recommending any improvements or changes to a water distribution system. This task will build off the Water Conservation Master Plan currently being developed by Maddaus.
Near term (2025) and far term (2040) planning horizons for future demands will be considered; demand projections under multiple future planning years will assist with prioritizing and sequencing recommended improvements projects for ECWA.
Based on the latest Urban Water Master Plan, demands may see an overall slight increase or relatively flat demand through 2040 due to balances of new developments and conservation efforts. Demand forecasts from this and other studies, along with information directly from the City, will be incorporated into final values by land use and pressure zone. This will also be combined with future development information like the recently adopted 6th Housing Elements.
Future demands will be allocated
in the model and maintained in
a logical scenario and alternative
hierarchy in the modeling
software. Future demands will
be differentiated from existing
demands using different demand
categories, different named
demand patterns (e.g., “20-year
Future Residential Demand
Pattern”), and appropriately
named scenarios, data sets,
and alternatives. The purpose
of careful naming conventions
for future demands is to assist
the various users of the model
in easily differentiating between
existing and future demands in
the model. Whereas existing
modeled demands are based on
detailed water billing information
and geospatial locating of water
customers, sets of assumptions,
estimations, and trend data are
incorporated into future demands.
3E - Current and Future Water Supply
Current and future water supply for the City will be analyzed such that they may be incorporated into the modeling and master planning effort. Based on the 2018 Sustainable Water Master Plan Update & 2020 Urban Water Management Plans, ground water makes up around 65% of the current potable water supply while the rest is imported from MWD connections.
Ground water currently comes from the Charnock, Olympic, Arcadia sub-basins through multiple ground water wells owned by the City. Arcadia Water Treatment Plant treats much of this ground water before discharging into the water distribution system. Limited recycled water is also utilized by the City through the Santa Monica Urban Runoff Recycling Facility; this flow currently makes up around 1% of the total water supply.
In the future, the City wants to increase groundwater utilization and reduce imported water. Groundwater increases are planned through a combination of Olympic well field restoration, groundwater recharging efforts, and Arcadia WTP expansion and enhancements. The City also anticipates an increase in non-potable recycled water use that may also help offset imported water usage. The City desires to have the first direct potable reuse (DPR) application in CA where water from the new AWTF would be distributed to customers, depending on future finalized DPR regulations. The City is also considering brand new water sources including new wells near the airport, and the option to consider desalination in the future; these may be considered and analyzed further in optional Task 7.1.

3F. Update Domestic Water System Hydraulic Model
Model updates consist of accurate representation
of system infrastructure, applying updated demand
allocation, factors and patterns, and matching model
reactions to changing conditions such as pump starts
and stops to recent SCADA system data. The purpose of
this task is to bring the model up-to-date with current conditions within the system and bring the model to a
level of detail aligned with current industry trends. This will be accomplished by the Arcadis team with a mindset for
future use of the model and allow for easy of long-term model maintenance by the City.
Following a review of the GIS database, any necessary
revisions to model pipes will be performed in collaboration with the City. The current industry trend is for modeled pipes to have a one-to-one relationship with the associated GIS database.
Arcadis has developed multiple tools to allow for a
seamless GIS-model interoperability, as well as ongoing improvements available in the existing built-in tools within InfoWater modeling software. We will develop a clear and concise process to maintain this GIS integration and make sure appropriate updates are passed to the respective
systems. Any tools necessary to do this will be provided to the City for long-term model maintenance.
3G. Domestic Water System Hydraulic Model Calibration and Analysis visualize the calibration results at multiple locations and for multiple scenarios.
2. Similarly, we have developed computer scripts which
directly read the InfoWater database of comparison of
multiple scenarios within the model. This visualization of comparison provides an efficient means to
understand the impact of any changes during
calibration from adjustment to adjustment.
3. We will work closely with City staff during the
calibration process to understand any anomalies and
develop solutions. In consultation with City staff, we
will use a macro and a micro calibration approach for
the model calibration. During workshops and progress
meetings, we will collaboratively develop a set of
criteria for macro and micro calibration. For example,
Figure 9. Examples of model connectivity challenges that need resolved during model updates Examples of quality assurance and adjustments of
horizontal piping assets that are common include:
• Topology, connectivity, disconnected pipes, parallel
pipes, and intersecting pipes
• Nodes in close proximity, disconnected nodes, pipesplit candidates • Hydrants and hydrant laterals (their inclusion,
representation, connectivity, and model attributes)
• Diameter discrepancies and model representation with
facility boundaries
Examples of model updates to vertical assets such as
pumps, tanks, and valves, include the following and any other updates deemed necessary through the model
calibration effort:
• Confirm pump simulations align with the recent pump
test data and perform any necessary updates
• Confirm valve position and settings align with available operational data
• Where possible, headloss curves may be added to
better represent remotely controlled positioning valves • All control valves (such as Pressure Reducing Valves) will be reviewed for correct sizes, configuration, and
settings.
Model calibration is believed by the water industry to be the most technically challenging aspect of modeling (per a survey by the AWWA Engineering Modeling Applications
Committee). We bring a proven approach and unique
tools that will accelerate the model calibration process.
Blending our depth of calibration experience with innovative approaches proposed specifically for this project, we feel our plan offers efficient and effective methods resulting in an exceptional model of the City water distribution system.
Our approach consists of the following calibration tools:
1. Our team has developed computer scripts to directly
read the InfoWater database and bring results into
Microsoft Excel and PowerBI for automated comparison
of calibration data. This, along with calibration SCADA templates developed by our team, will make it easy to
DocuSign Envelope ID: D940A0DF-4128-4831-9C25-2183562C1776 DocuSign Envelope ID: D940A0DF-4128-4831-9C25-2183562C1776

the criteria could be that pressure at a node is within 4 pounds per square-inch (psi) of the measured data. During macro calibration parameters like pressure zone diurnal curves and demand at a node can be adjusted to match model pressures to field observed data. Alternatively, during micro calibration parameters like pipe roughness factors will be adjusted to match model results to observed data. City staff will be updated and consulted with before and after any major updates.
Available SCADA and hydrant testing data from the City will be utilized for model calibration to represent conditions for at least a 24-hour time period. An option to extend the project to include field data collection (Task 7) is also included which would supplement the City’s available data with additional pressure and hydrant flow data; this would improve data available and thus may improve calibration results. The measure of model calibration is the primary tool to communicate the level of confidence and representativeness of the model computer simulations to the actual system. Common measures define a threshold allowable variation for each measurement or as percentage variance.
However, every system has facilities which are more critical for the model than others. Prior to model calibration, the Arcadis Team will conduct a workshop with City staff to define an innovative measurement of calibration, considering multiple factors such as shape of a curve, difference in actual values, and importance of facilities.
Figure 10. Hydraulic Model Calibration Process Schematic. Documenting the complete process is important to our team so that the City modelers and staff can reference this in the future, and for confidence and buy-in of model calibration and capabilities.
Once the model calibration is complete, we will create necessary scenarios and data sets within the model for existing system conditions, future system conditions/demands, and various system evaluations. Master plans require a number of model scenarios to be developed under a variety of demand conditions. The Arcadis team is highly experienced with creating organized hierarchical structures for dozens (and even hundreds) of model runs. We know and understand the importance of setting scenarios up correctly the first time and making sure that the structure is flexible to accommodate additional scenarios in a logical framework.
To support the City’s management of its water system, Arcadis will identify system performance level of service requirements. These level of service requirements typically consist of acceptable thresholds for pressure, velocity, headloss gradient, tank turnover, water age, and water quality concentrations. Any areas of low system performance as defined by the level of service criteria established for the system will be reviewed with the City to help collaborate on system improvements that will be included in the CIP.
Arcadis also places emphasis on providing an exceptional customer experience for our projects. For this project, in addition to paper maps for results presentation throughout the project, we propose to offer results presentation through interactive online map and Analytic and Collaboration Environment (ACE) dashboards hosted within ESRI’s ArcGIS Online . This will allow the City and Stakeholders the ability to see interactive model results outside of model software, customized to a specific login. While paper maps are a great tool to visualize systemwide model output, the use of these online dashboards with interactive maps allow the user to zoom, select a specific pipe or node and see detailed results.

This will be used by the project team throughout execution to collaborate and see specific model status and results; these will be available for one month following final project deliverables and can also be transferred to the City for continued use.
Figure 11. Arcadis’s Analytics & Collaboration Environment (ACE). In addition to paper maps, model results throughout the project will be communicated to the City through ACE which allows the City to understand model output through an interactive platform and to select and see model output for any individual asset. 3H. Water Quality Regulations Analysis
Water quality regulatory landscape continue to evolve at the national and state levels. Regulations affecting water systems continue to become more stringent. Arcadis’ water quality experts will assist the City to navigate and stay proactive. There are several key regulatory actions that could impact the City’s operations and maintenance through the planning horizon. Based on our understanding of the City’s system, the ones to focus on are 1,4-dioxane. The City currently treats for 1,4-dioxane and VOCs at Arcadia WTP. A progressive design build project to address 1,4-dioxane is also underway at Arcadia WTP.
Although unlikely to affect the drinking water system, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) has been detected in the City stormwater and sewer flows feeding SMURRF so potential PFAS related regulations are another to keep track of. As an optional value-added service (see Task 7.4.4), Arcadis proposes to assess the potential for regulatory action under the Clean Water Act (CWA) and other regulations to affect discharges and examine potential alternatives for the management of RO concentrate and/or combined wastewater flows.
For this Task 3H, Arcadis will track the following regulations with the focus on 1,4-dioxane. • Third Six-Year Review
• Fourth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR4) • Fifth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR5) • Lead and Copper Rule Revisions
• Potential Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) related regulations • Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-6)
• 1,4-Dioxane

3I - Capital Improvement Program
Development
Any areas of low system performance as defined by the level of service criteria established for the system will be reviewed and improvements identified to bring those areas into desired performance. Various alternatives will be reviewed to identify the optimal improvements considering capital and operations impacts. All recommended improvements will be discussed in detail with the City.
The ultimate deliverable of a master plan project is a
concise, defensible, economical and implementable Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP will include identified hydraulic and other improvements and incorporate other
projects identified by the City. Arcadis will work with the City to develop a prioritized CIP with a reasonable payback period.
Planning level capital costs will be developed for all identified projects using recent bid tabs, project budgets and contractor costs to calculate unit costs for replacement or rehabilitation.
If the information is not available, Arcadis will develop unit costs based on experience with similar projects in California and/ or manufacturer’s cost opinions.
3J. Domestic Water System Hydraulic Model
Training
Water distribution system analysis has grown increasingly complex as both hardware and software functionality has allowed operators, engineers and utility manager to ask new and different questions. Arcadis regularly performs training on distribution system theory, software use,
model functionality, system analysis, and model
maintenance.
Training of the City’s staff on the model will be critical for its ongoing use. This task will include preparation of training materials, a modeling manual, three full-day
hands-on training sessions (24-hours) on InfoWater
Software and the City’s model use for up to 6 City staff. A custom training agenda will be developed and provided
for input and review by the City prior to development of the training content. Training provided by Arcadis includes a variety of instructor-led presentations, hands-on model use via exercises, review of training documentation and manuals, and question and answer sessions.
Task 4 Sewer Main Video Inspection
The City desires to perform a closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection of approximately 2,000 ft of sewer pipes to support the Sewer Master Plan.
Arcadis will contract with National Plant Services, Inc. (NPS) to perform the CCTV inspection. The intent is to inspect the pipe using CCTV equipment to examine and record the internal condition of the pipe. A camera will be driven or pulled through each section of pipe, and the operator will stop the camera to observe at any abnormality or defect spotted as well as note laterals and waterline marks. Each lateral, defect, or other abnormality will be classified and documented per NASSCO PACP standards.
NPS owns and operates fifteen (15) CCTV Inspection vehicles.
Each truck is equipped with two (2) cameras and repair parts.
NPS will use a data capture software, and use NASSCO PACP coding when performing inspections. All cameras used will be able to pan 360 degrees of the pipe and have a minimum resolution of 720 x 480. Cameras will have auto focus and zoom as well as sufficient lighting. National Plant Services will notify the City and Arcadis whenever the camera will not pass or finds an imminent pipe failure.
Our Quality Control team will take the maps provided the by Arcadis and develop an inspection schedule with milestones that ensure the City timeline is met. Data will be compiled and reviewed by our QA/QC team in the office on a weekly basis. They will make sure that the video is captured in the correct format, that all the defects are properly noted per NASSCO PACP standards, that the overlays display the correct information, and that a quality product is delivered. Any inspections that do not pass our Quality Control standards will be re-inspected at our cost.
After setting up traffic control, the area around the manhole will be checked with a gas monitor to assure there are not Task 4 Objective:

toxic fumes present. If the manhole was sealed prior to opening, it will be resealed when it is closed. The inspection will begin at the uppermost manhole of the segment to be recorded.
The camera will be inserted into the line and the required information will be input into the software with the appropriate overlay. The camera will travel down the line at a rate no greater than 30 feet per minute. Defects, laterals, etc. will be noted per PACP guidelines. The daily footage and locations can be relayed to the City’s field manager daily or as frequently as desired.
The Quality Control Department will then gather all the data and merge into one database. This database along with corresponding videos, pictures, and log sheets will be submitted.
Along with the data, a summary will be provided using log sheets detailing the inspection. Each line segment will be represented along with the footages of defects, laterals, etc.
An Excel sheet will be provided that has the line segments with their ‘Quickscore’ rating and can be sorted to show all the ‘5’s, ‘4’s, etc. This will assist the City with laying out future CIP projects and determining immediate needs.

Task 5 Manhole Flow Monitoring
The reliability of a sewer model is fundamentally dependent on the quality of data applied to its calibration. To streamline the program and provide cost-efficiency, we will assist the City in optimizing the flow monitoring program to maximize its benefit and identify monitoring locations most suitable for model calibration. Past flow monitoring locations will be discussed with the City to determine if these sites are suitable for the proposed monitoring effort. By utilizing past locations, comparisons can be made directly as to the impact of growth and/or conservation efforts.
Arcadis, in collaboration with V&A, will provide temporary sewer flow monitoring services at 20 monitoring locations for a minimum of 14 days. The flow monitoring program will be conducted concurrently with rainfall monitoring at two (2) locations. Depth and velocity data as well as rainfall data will be recorded at 5-minute intervals. Accurate and reproducible flow metering data are critical to all subsequent evaluations and form the basis for refining the model calibration.
The City has indicated that 20 sites are to be flow monitored, and Arcadis will collaborate with the City to confirm the site selections. The traditional criteria for flow monitoring locations include:
• Past monitoring sites (pros and cons of each site)
• Critical locations in the sewer system
• Isolate a specific land use or area of interest where possible
• Has no drop connections, backwater conditions, and
hydraulic jumps
• Easy to access and avoids high-risk traffic locations • Avoids redundancy with permanent flow monitoring
locations
Planning and preparing for data collection is equally
important as collecting the information. This task will include a flow and rainfall monitoring data collection plan laying the foundation for all aspects of field data collection activities.
The data collection plan will formalize the flow and rainfall monitoring for the overall collection system so that an optimized level of monitoring data is available. The plan will outline procedures for evaluating the monitoring data and qualifying if enough suitable data has been collected for model calibration purposes.
Task 5 Objective:
• To conduct sewer flow monitoring to obtain field
data for hydraulic model calibration.
Task 5 Meetings:
• Flow Monitoring Locations Selection Meeting
• Flow Monitoring Results Review Meeting
Task 5 Deliverables:
• As an appendix to the Sewer Master Plan,
the flow monitoring and rainfall effort will
be documented. The appendix will include a
description of each site, the data quality review
findings and a database containing the flow and
rainfall data.
Arcadis’ proven approach to reviewing flow data on a regular basis will be utilized to ensure quality data is collected and to flag any suspect data for prompt field investigation and correction. Data will be analyzed to confirm flow rates are reasonable compared to the water consumption data and that the depth and velocity data responds reasonably to rainfall data. Using Arcadis’ rainfall analysis tool, the captured rainfall events will quickly be processed to identify the magnitude of each storm and to evaluate the spatial variability as the storm event moves across the City. These tools and this approach to reviewing data and proactively identifying suspect readings will increase the City’s confidence in the calibrated model. At the conclusion of the master plan study, the flow monitoring effort will be summarized in the report and the data will be provided to the City.

Task 6 Preparation of Sewer Master Plan
6A. Executive Summary
Interpreting the recommendations and findings in the
Sewer Master Plan is critical for the City to ensure long term growth needs are met. Recognizing that the City’s
leadership and stakeholders need to be able to effectively and efficiently understand the Master Plan, Arcadis
proposes to deliver tools that are accessible and convey the impacts of the various Master Plan components. The
executive summary document and ESRI Story Maps with
dynamic results will be developed similar to those found in the Water Master Plan (Task 3).
6B. Sanitary Sewer System Description
The City’s sanitary sewer system is tributary to the Coastal Interceptor Sewer (CIS) which discharges to the City of Los Angeles’ Hyperion Wastewater Treatment Plant (HTP).
Flow is monitored at two, permanent metering stations
at the upstream (LA-1) and downstream end (SM-1) of the City’s connections to the CIS. Within the City, there are approximately 150 miles of sewers (both gravity and force mains) and over 2,800 manholes. The sewers range in size from 4 to 70 inches and consist of primarily vitrified clay pipe (VCP). The Moss Avenue Pump Station (MAPS) has a
capacity of 26 MGD and moves flow along the CIS.
The current sanitary sewer system configuration will be reviewed and updated to reflect system improvements
since the 2017 Sanitary Sewer System Master Plan
(developed by HDR). The operation of the MAPS will
also be confirmed to ensure the pumping scheme and
capacities are represented in the model.
6C. Historical and Current Sewage Flow Rate
Arcadis will use flow monitoring data (Task 5), available historic data, and data from the three monitoring stations to estimate dry weather flow by using EPA Sanitary Sewer Overflow Analysis and Planning (SSOAP) toolbox. The
estimated dry weather comprises base wastewater flow
Task 6 Objective:
• To update the City’s sewer flow generation rate
and hydraulic model
• To evaluate the sewer system’s capacity and
deficiencies
• To develop a new 10-year CIP
• To prepare the Draft and Final Sewer Master Plan

(BWF) with weekday and weekend diurnal patterns and
groundwater infiltration (GWI). The Average Dry Weather Flow (ADWF) and Peak Dry Weather flows (PDWF) will
be calculated for each flow monitor. The estimated dry
weather flow components will then be distributed to the parcels based on water consumption data in collaboration with Task 3. Flow from each parcel will then be allocated to the manhole closest to the parcel centrode. Care will be taken to evaluate BWF rates are reasonable given the population and sources of flow, and the GWI components
will be compared to industry standards to flag suspect
sources and data. If rainfall events occur during the flow monitoring period, the flow data will be decomposed to
identify the Rainfall Derived Inflow and Infiltration (RDII) component. Understanding the RDII will allow for the
peak flows to be extrapolated to Peak Wet Weather Flow
(PWWF) to represent the influence of wet weather. If the current flow monitoring effort does not capture any wet weather events, historical rainfall from past monitoring efforts will be used in conjunction with data from past monitors or the City’s permanent monitoring stations.
The peaking factors will also be compared with factors used by neighboring and similar sized systems. The estimated peaking factors will be applied to each sewershed in
addition to the dry weather flows in the model.
6D. Future Sewage Flow Rate
Although the City’s service area is fairly built out, the potential for additional growth along with continued
water conservations efforts will impact future flow rates.
A population based approach to flow development is
appropriate because of the following:
• Requires fewer flow meters than land use approach

• Supports future projects using per capita flow to
estimate future flows for development, plans, or designs.
Arcadis will use the City’s planning data (e.g. redevelopment) along with population projections to estimate future flows within the service area for both
the near term (2025) and long term (2040) horizons. The projected water demands from the service area will also be used to truth check future wastewater flow from the
service area. ADWF, PDWF and PWWF will be developed
for each sewershed for both planning horizons.
6E. Update Sewer System Hydraulic Model
Arcadis proposes to use the City’s GIS data supplemented by record drawings to incorporate recent sewer
improvement projects into the existing InfoSewer model.
The data will also be processed using Arcadis’ Data Profiler tool to flag missing or suspect attributes (such as missing diameters or incompatible inverts). The model will include all major trunk sewers and tributary sewers (6-inches
and larger) owned by the City. Special attention will be given to confirming the configuration of the MAPS in the model, as well as the two monitoring stations. Ensuring these components are not only properly constructed in
the model but also that the operating rules are simulated correctly will drive the confidence in the model’s ability to mimic flow rates.
6F. Sewer System Hydraulic Model Calibration
and Analysis
In keeping with EPA guidance, Arcadis’ approach relies
primarily on graphical “goodness of fit” comparisons of model and monitored data to assess model calibration.
In addition, we provide suggested quantitative figures
for assessing model calibration. Close collaboration with the City’s Operations staff is essential to our approach to model calibration. Calibration will be comprised of dry and wet weather calibration.
The flow data will be loaded into the models and
simulation will be performed for the period in which flows are monitored. The model or simulated results will be
compared to the observed flow monitoring data.
E // 1.5 PROJECT WORK PLAN
Dry Weather Calibration
At the temporary monitoring locations and three
permanent monitoring, the model will be calibrated to dry weather flows, including weekend and weekday diurnal
patterns and base ground water. Arcadis will:
• Verify that the model is routing dry weather flows
correctly. Review system for possible connectivity
errors.
• Compare measured and modeled flow depths
adjusting Manning’s “n” as needed, or identifying the
cause of discrepancies.
Wet Weather Calibration
Wet weather calibration will depend on the storms that
occur during flow monitoring. If storms are captured during the flow monitoring, wet weather calibration will consist of:
• Storm events at the installed flow meters on a single event basis.
• Adjusting parameters to simulate the rainfall-induced flow response of the system for each storm event.
• Adjusting hydrologic parameters as needed to
generate volume and peak flow.
• Comparing peak flow, total volume and surcharge
depth to develop a robust planning tool for future flow projections and system analyses.
If no significant rain events are captured during the flow monitoring period, wet weather calibration will not be
performed. Peaking factors will be used for capacity
analysis after validation from the permanent flow
monitoring data.
6G. Capital Improvement Program
Development
The development of a feasible and affordable Capital
Improvement Program drives the City’s ability to
proactively manage future growth and the impacts of
changes in the sewer system’s need to convey flow. To
achieve this, the Level of Service (LOS) goals and preferred future projects must be identified.
Level of Service Goals
Level of Service (LOS) goals are necessary to define
acceptable conditions for the City under specified
situations. The acceptability may change based on location, size of pipe, and weather conditions. Arcadis will work with the City to either establish or review existing LOS criteria that will be used to trigger recommended improvements.
Capacity Assessment or Analysis of System Deficiencies
Once the LOS goals are established, the calibrated model will be used to evaluate the collection system’s response during dry and wet weather events for both existing
conditions, 2025 and 2040 conditions.
The following dynamic scenarios will be created for
As the City has an existing sewer
model, we anticipate the physical
network is well developed and
validated. The fee estimate only
reflects the effort to incorporate
recent sewer projects as scoped. Any
hydraulic conflicts in the existing
model may result in additional effort
and will be discussed with the City.

• Peak Dry Weather Flows
• Peak Wet Weather Flows
The recommended CIP and the resulting master plan will
provide a defensible and feasible pathway for the City to implement over the next 20 years. Understanding that
cost is a significant driver in the CIP, Arcadis will use recent bid tabs, regional costing tools and manufacturer’s cost opinions to develop costs for each project. Prioritization of each project will be aligned with the City’s goals and potential Water system projects. The CIP will include
identified hydraulic and other improvements and
incorporate other projects identified by the City. The
ultimate goal is to develop a unified CIP that includes a holistic approach to manage the City’s water and sewer
systems.
6H. Sewer System Map Preparation
The sewer system evaluation maps and dashboards using
the ArcGIS Online and Arcadis’ ACE platform will also be utilized similar to the Domestic Water Master Plan (Task 3). Sewer model results with interactive maps will allow the City and Stakeholders the ability to see results outside of model software and will support collaboration of the capital improvement program with the entire project team. 6I. Sewer System Hydraulic Model Training
Arcadis intends to help the City become familiar with the hydraulic models from the vetting process onward and
help build its understanding of the software as the project develops. Our goal is for the City’s staff to have a comfort level before the hand off occurs. Arcadis will advise the City of any hardware, software, or licensing requirements necessary to efficiently use the model for future system analysis.
While in-person training sessions are preferred as the
trainer can better read the room and provide more
efficient coaching and support, Arcadis is prepared to
provide virtual training, in lieu of or in addition to the inperson training. We have training materials ready-to-go for Innovyze software and others that can be tailored to the City’s specific requirements. The training will cover sanitary sewer system theory, software use, model
functionality, system analysis, and model maintenance.
The three-day training will include a variety of instructorled presentations, hands-on model use exercises, review or training documentation and manuals, and Q&A sessions.
As an alternative, Arcadis will offer the option of “learn as we go” training to allow the City’s staff to be trained as each step in the modeling task is completed. This
approach distributes the training across the duration of the project and allows the trainees to learn in more frequent, but shorter sessions. We have successfully used both
approaches and will work with the City to determine the ideal training method for their staff.
Arcadis will develop a Model Reference Manual to
identify details of the model facilities, controls, and model assumptions for each model provided. The manual will also address maintenance by identifying components, such as
defining triggers for updates, who performs the updates, and specific process for performing the updates.
Arcadis can also assist the City to coordinate the purchase of new model software packages.

Arcadis regularly implements a phased evaluation
approach with stakeholder engagement throughout
the process so that relevant potential alternatives are considered, the evaluation criteria and criteria weighting are well-defined and are supported by all stakeholders. The evaluations will be based on hydraulic simulations (for both water and sewer as necessary) to evaluate if any additional infrastructure is necessary, such as transmission mains, tank mixing systems, and impacts to any pump operations and energy. Workshops will be conducted with the City
and stakeholders led by our team of technical experts
to discuss and summarize the criteria and weighting,
identification of all potential alternatives and screening to feasible alternatives for further evaluation and selection.
While final alternatives will be
determined based on discussions
with the City, Task 7.1 currently plans
to evaluate three water treatment
scenarios. Arcadis will collaborate with
the City team to further develop the
water treatment scenarios that could
include:
1. New groundwater treatment plant
at the Santa Monica Airport
2. Seawater desalination facility that
utilizes existing, permitted seawater
extraction wells, and a new
desalinization treatment facility
3. Integration of new potable reuse
supplies from regional partners (e.g.,
LADWP Operation Next treated
water augmentation at the airport
and/or MWDSC Regional Recycled
Water Program)
An evaluation matrix will summarize all
options, criteria and weighting so that it
is transparent how the selection for the
optimal alternative was made, and the
decision tool will be a dynamic Microsoft
Excel-based tool that will allow the City
to modify weightings should conditions
change in the future without having to
purchase and learn new software. Our
team of technical experts understands
E // 1.5 PROJECT WORK PLAN
the likelihood of unintended consequences as well. We will provide input to consider unintended consequences as a
result of distribution system changes.
We understand that often the best option is a
combination of improvements that together make up a
wining alternative (for example, combining the new water treatment plant at the airport with transmission main
improvements that support changes in water conveyance).
This matrix will be used to identify which combined set of options is the best alternative for the City moving
forward in order to achieve regulatory acceptance while also providing the most cost-effective, timely and efficient means to do so.
Task 7.2 – Supplemental CCTV Inspection
Additional CCTV Inspection locations will be identified based on City input and/or on review of the existing system information in GIS. Ideally additional inspections should be identified during the kickoff meeting to minimize the mobilization efforts of the CCTV subconsultant. The CCTV inspections will follow the procedures and deliverables outlined in Task 4.

Task 7.3 – Supplemental Sewer Flow Monitoring
The scoped two-week flow monitoring program in Task 5 may not capture enough dry weather flow data or any significant rainfall events to support model calibration. This supplemental task allows the City to extend the flow monitoring period in two week increments at a minimum of 10 sites. A longer sewer flow monitoring program presents a greater opportunity to capture multiple rainfall events and will increase confidence in the development of ADWF and PDWF values. During the initial siting discussions in Task 5, the City and Arcadis will identify the 5 highest priority sites (of the 20 sites) should the supplement sewer flow monitoring task be authorized. If, after reviewing the initial two weeks of data, the City determines that the supplemental sewer flow monitoring should be conducted at new sites, Arcadis will work with the City to identify ideal sites. As done in Task 5, the supplemental flow monitoring data will be reviewed and utilized to support the modeling in Task 6.
Task 7.4 – Value Added Services
The City is interested in additional services that add value beyond the base scope, but will further support and enhance the domestic water and sewer master plans. The following subtasks are described further in detail that also highlight their benefits to the City:
; 7.4.1 - Field Data Collection
; 7.4.2 - Risk-based Domestic Water Master Plan
; 7.4.3 - Risk-based Sewer Master Plan
; 7.4.4 - Concentrate (Brine) Evaluation
; 7.4.5 - AMI Technical Assistance
7.4.1 Field Data Collection
The domestic water model will be calibrated to verify hydraulic representations are accurate before using it for any analysis or decision-making during Task 3. However, depending on the level of accuracy required for informed decision making, and the amount of distribution system data available, an optional field data collection task should also be considered to support calibration efforts.
The Arcadis team consisting of water distribution system experts with backgrounds in distribution operations, planning and engineering understand the importance of accurate and reliable field data for calibration of hydraulic and water quality models. Arcadis regularly performs and trains utility personnel on proper hydrant operation, performing hydrant flushing and flow testing, performing pressure and flow monitoring, and proper sampling for water quality measurement.
A field data collection plan will be developed and reviewed by all necessary stakeholders to incorporate feedback for an effective and accurate field data collection effort. Based on our understanding of the City’s water distribution system, we propose the following efforts for field data collection to support model calibration:
Pressure survey:
ο Up to 10 temporary hydrant pressure recorders (Trimble HPR-31) installed for a period of 1 week during Summer 2022 with security covers and a common keyed lock with keys provided to the City. ο Arcadis owns and maintains a fleet of over 120 hydrant pressure recorders, so additional recorders or additional duration can be provided at an additional project cost if needed. Hydrant Flow Testing:
ο A quantity of up to 10 hydrant fire flow tests will be performed throughout the City ο Select locations may also be identified for pipe roughness (Hazen-Williams C-factor) flow tests concurrent with fire flow testing locations. These will be located strategically so that this test is performed simply with the addition of another pressure recorder to the fire flow test.
A four-phase workflow will be implemented to ensure the correct data (quantity and location) is collected, the correct procedure is executed, and the appropriate documentation is recorded and communicated. The workflow consists of: Identify, Prepare, Execute and Record. The Identify phase will implement a scientific approach to selecting the correct locations for sample collection and measurement and the Prepare phase will well-equip the field teams for understanding specific location details. The Execute phase will consist of Arcadis experts supported by City operators performing the testing. In the Record phase specific information regarding the test, equipment, and location will be collected using mobile tools. The Arcadis Team will closely coordinate with the City to develop a proposed field data collection plan for calibration which will be submitted for approval by the City.

Proper data collection is critical to successful model calibration, and our team brings industry-leading subject matter expert in hydrant flow testing, including our task lead Ben Chenevey. Mr. Chenevey has performed water distribution system testing at nearly 400 different locations across the nation and regularly trains field crews, utilities, federal agencies, and other consultants in proper flow testing.
Key considerations include test placement, equipment accuracy, and confirming a sufficient decrease from static to residual pressure for the test to be considered valid. Our team uses dashboards and analytics developed by performing hundreds of flow tests across the US and globally to understand test and data validity. In the photo here, two ports on a single hydrant were opened to achieve sufficient pressure drop. This is important in selecting proper test locations as well, so that good quality data can be collected for model calibration, while also considering and minimizing the amount of non-revenue water that is flowed out of the system for model calibration.
7.4.2 Risk-based Domestic Water Master Plan
Effective asset management is a critical component of a water master plans. Asset management provides the risk-based framework by which rehab & replacement (R&R) and growth projects are prioritized, and capital and operations budgets are developed and managed. Arcadis is a national leader in asset management and assists our clients in developing asset management programs to meet long-term customer service level objectives and develop risk-based prioritization and funding programs. It is anticipated that this optional task will use a structured asset management framework to complete a desktop condition assessment and risk-based prioritization of projects to ultimately feed into the domestic water CIP and master plan developed in the main scope (Task 3). Arcadis is a national leader in asset management with the skills to assist our clients in developing ISO 55000 compliant asset management programs and applying IIMM standards to meet their financial, sustainability, reliability, and level of service goals. Our asset management service offerings include strategy development, business planning, infrastructure condition assessment and capital and O&M planning. Our Arcadis staff lead and serve on AWWA and WRF Asset Management Committees at the National and Local Levels. We have recently contributed to AWWA Manual M77 Condition Assessment of Water Mains and will bring that experience on desktop risk assessment to this project.
For the desktop pipeline condition assessment, the Arcadis team has a proven approach and existing Renewal and Replacement Planning System (RRPS) tool that can be leveraged to complete the assessment as well as support the overall risk analysis process for all domestic water system pipeline assets. For the pipelines, the approach begins with an analysis of age, materials, diameters and past break history to understand potential factors causing failures such as corrosive soils, high groundwater tables, pressure surges, etc. Cohorts, pipelines with similar behavior will be established and deterioration curves generated based on estimated useful life per cohort. capacity and other service level failures can be integrated into the analysis through GIS. A demo of the Arcadis RRPS tool as well as an overview of the approach will be discussed during the kickoff meeting, and City input will be incorporated into the final methodology.
Features of the RRPS Decision Support Tool
RRPS Function Description
Asset Inventory Accepts full asset inventory from GIS and CMMS with asset ID and attribute information.
Effective Useful Life Assigns EUL based on asset class with an unlimited number of classes and creates deterioration curves. Data tables have reference EULs from previous projects.
Condition Assessment Follows full IIMM best practices for physical and performance scoring using a 1-5 rating and customized category weighting.
Consequence of Failure Also follows IIM best practices, including triple bottom line consequence of failure evaluation and redundancy allowances if desired.
Cost Estimating Follows AACE Level 5 guidance
Rehabilitation vs Replace Considers rehabilitate versus replace based on risk, condition, location and EUL.
Project Definitions Assets are assigned to projects following a facility hierarchy, geography or programmatically by asset type, cost and risk.
CIP Scenarios Calculates system wide metrics for condition, risk and annual cost based on service level goals, set investment amounts or both.

The Arcadis RRPS tool will be configured to evaluate the condition of the pipelines through a desktop analysis
leveraging the pipe attribute information available in
GIS, the past failure history from Cityworks or other files, interviews with knowledgeable staff and applying any
established service levels or industry standard decay
curves to determine what year replacement is required
to address physical condition. The outcomes from
hydraulic modeling will be incorporated in addition to staff interviews to score the other failure modes for the pipeline assets.
In addition to the likelihood of failure determined by
the desktop condition assessment, risk considers the
criticality or consequence of failure and the availability of redundancy to mitigate failure impacts. The risk scores normalize the evaluation and provide for an “apples
to-apples” comparison to prioritize projects for assets of different types and functions. The criticality criteria will be developed for the pipeline assets following the triple bottom line principal, which incorporates the economic, social and environmental impacts of a failure. Arcadis will provide examples of consequence scoring from similar
planning projects, including California utilities, to assist the City in developing the optimum scoring approach. Applying the scoring standards developed through collaboration
with the City, the Arcadis team will work to score asset criticality and risk. It is anticipated that all pipeline assets will be scored using GIS queries; the RRPS tool accepts input from this process and will calculate the overall risk score considering redundancy.
Based upon the pipeline asset condition and risk score
results, the domestic water master plan (Task 3) will be expanded with additional logical projects that are created and evaluated using the RRPS tool. For pipeline assets, the pipelines will be grouped by risk score, replacement year, and geography to identify specific pipes requiring replacement due to growth and condition. A workshop
will be held with the City to review the major alternatives evaluated for pipelines to review annual funding needs
for various service level scenarios to select the best fit for the City balancing funding, condition, and risk objectives.
The RRPS tool will be used to prepare the scenarios and for review with the City. Comments from the City will be incorporated into the final alternatives selections. Not only will these risk-based results and capital improvements
be incorporated into a more complete domestic water
master plan, but they can also subsequently be used
for asset management program work in the future.
7.4.3 Risk-based Sewer Master Plan
Effective asset management is also a critical component of a sewer master plans. Asset management provides the
risk-based framework by which rehab & replacement and
growth projects are prioritized, and capital and operations budgets are developed and managed. It is anticipated that this optional task will use a structured asset management framework to complete a desktop condition assessment
and risk-based prioritization of projects to ultimately feed into the sewer CIP and master plan developed in the main scope (Task 6). The same approach detailed in Optional
Task 7.4.2 (Risk-based Domestic Water Master Plan) will be followed with the sewer system to develop risk evaluations of all sewer mains.
For this desktop sewer main condition assessment, the
Arcadis team has a proven approach and existing Renewal and Replacement Planning System (RRPS) tool that can be leveraged to complete the assessment as well as support the overall risk analysis process for all sewer system
pipeline assets. Based upon the sewer main asset condition and risk score results, the sewer master plan (Task 6) will be expanded with additional logical projects that are
created and evaluated using the RRPS tool. Not only will these risk-based results and capital improvements
be incorporated into a more complete sewer master
plan, but they can also subsequently be used for asset
management program work in the future.
7.4.4 Concentrate (Brine) Evaluation
As a component of the City’s multifaceted effort to
become water-independent, it is expanding the production of water resources via potable reuse and brackish
groundwater desalination, both of which utilize reverse osmosis (RO) and generate a concentrate residuals stream.
The new RO systems at the SMURRF and AWTF will add
concentrate discharge flows to the sewer system, as will the expansion of the Arcadia WTP. However, because the
SMURRF treats both stormwater and coastal aquifer flows, while the AWTF purifies recycled wastewater – all with
concentrate water quality disparate from each other and the Arcadia WTP concentrate – these new RO systems will change the quality of the blended wastewater supplies.
Moreover, the additional concentrate from all three RO
systems will increase the percent contribution of more
saline supplies comprising the City’s wastewater, likewise altering the water quality. The additional concentrate flow will be somewhat moderated by the incorporation of Flow Reversal RO technology at the Arcadia facility to increase recovery, although the higher recovery will also intensify the concentrate quality.
Further compounding the combined concentrate (and
blended wastewater) quality variation, the SMURRF source water will fluctuate with stormwater flows, thus altering the quality of its brine intermittently, and the brackish groundwater supply treated at SMURRF is anticipated to
become more saline in future years. As a result, for the purposes of comprehensive planning, it is important
for the City to fully understand the impact of these
changes on both the quantity and quality of the
concentrate flows and their influence on collected
wastewater.
In assisting the City with this effort, Arcadis will first characterize the projected changes to the City’s sewer
flow – both quality and quantity – including the anticipated variability based on known SMURRF source water supply
boundary conditions and water quality data collected
under implementation of the SWIP. The potential impact

source water will also be evaluated. This fully characterized profile of the future concentrate / blended sewer flows will be compared to current sewer flows and quality
to understand the pending changes and assess the
potential for impact on the City’s discharge permits and/ or agreements with LA Sanitation & Environment (LASAN)
which receives the City’s wastewater at the Hyperion
Water Reclamation Plant.
Due to the known presence of PFAS in both the City
stormwater and sewer flows, Arcadis will also assess the potential for regulatory action under the Clean Water
Act (CWA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) to affect
discharges (e.g., numerical limits, treatment, industrial pretreatment programs, etc.). This assessment will also examine potential alternatives for the management of RO concentrate and/or combined wastewater flows that may
be necessary as result of such regulatory action. A detailed technical memorandum will be generated to capture this
comprehensive concentrate evaluation, which may be
incorporated into the Master Plan Updates, at the City’s discretion.
7.4.5 AMI Technical Assistance
Project Understanding
Arcadis understands that the City has piloted three AMI systems over the last several years and is now ready to move forward with a full procurement and implementation for approximately 18,400 meters. We know this will be a turnkey project of a cellular AMI system implemented over the next two years. Our experienced AMI experts offer
services that will ensure the successful implementation of your AMI project and exploit it to achieve broader
goals. Our staff possesses deep technical and managerial experience in areas such as metering, customer service, engineering, information technology, and business
consulting. Arcadis’ role as Owner’s agent will streamline your implementation efforts and reduce overall project
risks. The following six areas described below provides detail on the consulting services we recommend for the
City’s AMI project. Arcadis is flexible to scope a project that meets your needs while achieving the key targeted
outcomes of the project.
“We can help the City meet its goals of
improving meter reading efficiency, move to
monthly billing, engage customers with water
usage and conservation efforts and validate
these efforts, as well as minimize water loss
through non-revenue water initiatives.”
1) System Selection Consulting and Contract
Negotiations
With the City’s release of an AMI System solicitation,
Arcadis can support the City’s evaluation team with the understanding of technical capabilities and proposed
pricing. We will provide clarity and explanation to support understanding of the responses, as well as a perform
a lifecycle pricing comparison to support the team’s
selection process. After vendor selection, Arcadis will provide AMI expertise to support the City with the contract development and contract negotiations. A strong contract is an important tool to manage risks that are inherent in an AMI project. Our experienced practitioners have negotiated multiple AMI contracts that cover all project elements.
E // 1.5 PROJECT WORK PLAN
Our efforts will result in a contract that is favorable to the City, specifically in areas such as:
3 product warranties and remedies
3 excessive failure warranties
3 system performance
3 service levels
2) Program and Project Management
Our role is owner’s agent for the City throughout the AMI project. Our project management services include items
such as schedule management, scope management
and change control, resource management, project risk
management, project documentation maintenance, and
conducting status meetings and developing status reports. 3) Public Outreach Support and Customer
Communication
The AMI system implementation effort will require
targeted and consistent communication to inform
stakeholders, excite them about the benefits, and garner their support for the transition to an AMI system. Arcadis typically recommends that a customer communication
program be initiated early in the project, starting with the development of a communication plan. To develop the
communication plan, our team will perform the following activities:
; Communication Planning Workshop. We will facilitate
a workshop with the City project team members
and Public Information Office stakeholders to gain
consensus among the decision makers about an
appropriate communication strategy. The outcome will
be the development of a Communications Plan.
; Communication Plan Development. We will draft a
communication plan which includes the key strategies,
tactics, and communications management. These
customer communications strategies will be aligned
with the project timeline.

7.4.6 Sewer Model Conversion
Scope of Work
The City currently uses Innovyze InfoSewer model to perform hydraulic analyses of its sanitary sewer system. The simulation of sewer system in the existing InfoSewer model is unsatisfactory and Innovyze is discontinuing InfoSewer software in the 2023-24 timeframe. The City is exploring alternatives to its existing software as part of the Sewer Master Plan Update effort. Arcadis has preliminarily recommended three feasible sewer system software alternatives including PCSWMM, Innovyze ICM and SewerGEMS for City’s consideration. The existing InfoSewer model must be converted to a compatible format for the selected software. The Scope of Work is structured to provide smooth transition from existing InfoSewer model to City selected software model.
Task 1- Sewer Model Conversion
Arcadis will convert the City’s existing InfoSewer sewer network model to the selected software model.
The task comprises of following steps:
Determination of scenario and sewer networks
The existing InfoSewer model has 7 scenarios and respective sewer networks and loadings.
Arcadis will work with the City to determine the necessary scenarios and sewer networks for the project.
Sewer network export
Arcadis will export the sewer network for each scenario from the existing InfoSewer model. The model export might be in the form of shapefiles or direct export to other software if compatible. Processing of the exported format
Based on the software that the city selects, Arcadis will convert the exported sewer network to compatible format for import. This format might be InfoSWMM format or shapefiles depending on the selected software.
Import of the sewer network
Arcadis will import the sewer network for all the scenario to the selected software. Sewer network comparison
Once the import is complete, Arcadis will review and compare the imported model with the existing InfoSewer model to ensure model components and scenario were correctly imported.
Assumptions:
City will provide complete sewer network model and related data as requested by Arcadis.

Consultant will compare City event documentation files with certified event reports and current City OERP/WQMP record keeping requirements.
Consultant will identify areas of deficiencies, potential concern, strengths, and recommended improvements for the City to consider associated with current emergency response documentation.
This information will be documented in a record keeping summary memorandum. A draft review summary memorandum will be provided for review and comment by the City. Consultant will host a one-hour review meeting to address City comments and/or concerns; one final memorandum will be submitted that address comments as discussed in the review meeting.

City Council Meeting: March 19, 2024
Agenda Item: 5.H
1 of 6
To: Mayor and City Council
From: David Martin, Director, Administration
Subject: Adoption of Resolution Authorizing Receipt of State of California Cannabis Equity Grant Funding for $40,000 for Preparation of a Cannabis Equity Assessment and Authorization for City Manager to Execute All Necessary Associated Documents
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of no possibility of significant effect pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
2. Adopt the attached resolution authorizing the acceptance of a grant awarded in the amount of $40,000 from the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development for the Cannabis Equity Grants Program for Local Jurisdictions.
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents to accept the grant and all grant renewals.
4. Authorize budget changes as outlined in the Financial Impacts & Budget Actions section of this report.
Summary
In response to City Council’s direction at the June 13, 2023, adult-use cannabis study session, City Planning Division staff applied for the Cannabis Equity Grants Program for Local Jurisdictions Type 1 Grant funding from the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development to conduct a cannabis equity assessment for the City of Santa Monica. The grant was awarded on January 19, 2024, for the maximum amount of $40,000 to conduct the assessment. The funds will be allocated to consultant professional services after a solicitation process and minimal reimbursement for City staff project management.
5.H
Packet Pg. 291
2 of 6
The equity assessment will help document the historical criminalization of cannabis and its disproportionate impact on specific populations in Santa Monica. The equity assessment will analyze both quantitative data including cannabis criminal arrest and demographic data along with qualitative data from surveys and community engagement to develop key findings and recommendations.
This report recommends Council’s approval of the attached resolution to authorize the acceptance of the California Cannabis Equity Type 1 Grant and to authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents to accept the grant.
Discussion
On June 13, 2023, the City Council held a study session to answer key policy questions regarding adult-use cannabis. Council directed staff to move forward with developing an adult-use cannabis ordinance and conducting a cannabis equity assessment to inform the development of a cannabis equity program.
Conducting the cannabis equity assessment is the first phase of developing a greater adult-use cannabis ordinance and program. On October 2, 2023, the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development announced the 2023-2024 fiscal year grant solicitation for the Cannabis Equity Grants Program for Local Jurisdictions. The $40,000 grant is for the exclusive purpose of conducting a cannabis equity assessment which will inform a cannabis equity program and the ordinance. The maximum allowable funding request for the equity assessment was $40,000. City Planning Division staff, in collaboration with the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Office, submitted the grant application on December 12, 2023, and was awarded the grant on January 19, 2024, pending necessary receipt requirements. A Council-adopted Resolution is required to be submitted to the State by March 25, 2024, and the final grant agreement must be executed by the City Manager by April 1, 2024, as requirements for accepting the grant.
The equity assessment will identify populations that were disproportionately impacted by the criminalization and enforcement of cannabis in the past and how they can benefit from participation in the cannabis industry moving forward. The scope of the cannabis
5.H
Packet Pg. 292
3 of 6
equity assessment is expected to consist of collecting and analyzing census data, data from conviction records, community engagement including interviews with affected populations, comparative analysis with peer cities, and reporting out on findings to inform policy recommendations.
The cannabis industry has unique barriers to entry due to the lack of traditional business development support and financing available. As a result, the equity assessment will inform the level of assistance necessary to support participation in the cannabis industry. This may involve financial literacy training, business development support, workforce development, direct or indirect financial assistance, priority selection, and/or streamlined permitting processes. Without the equity assessment, it will be difficult to know how best to focus program development and the level of local government assistance necessary to open doors to the cannabis industry.
The City Planning Division will coordinate and manage the multi-department effort to conduct the cannabis equity assessment in collaboration with the City Attorney, Police Department, and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion staff in the City Manager’s Office. The City will issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit a consultant to conduct the cannabis equity assessment. The consultant will provide the City with technical assistance and associated materials and services to complete a thorough and comprehensive assessment. The equity assessment will analyze both quantitative data including cannabis criminal arrest and demographic data along with qualitative data from surveys and community engagement to develop key findings and program recommendations.
It is anticipated that upon selection of a consultant to prepare the cannabis equity assessment, the scope and budget of $40,000 grant will include the following tasks and associated expenses:
Administrative Expenses
• City Planning and other various relevant departments’ staff time to prepare the cannabis equity assessment and oversee the project team.

Preparation of Assessment
• Data collection, management, and analysis of historical criminal records from the Santa Monica Police Department and District Attorney’s Office for cannabisrelated offenses. • Gathering and analysis of census data including demographic statistics and proportion of the City population by race and ethnicity. • Community outreach:
o Initial Phase: Materials, organization and development, and outreach implementation.
o Subsequent Phase: Report back on findings to ensure that targeted communities are engaged in cannabis policy development and implementation.
• Public meetings/hearings:
o Consultant preparation of public presentations.
o Consultant attendance at public meetings/hearings.
Inform Cannabis Equity Program Development
• Development of models to illustrate where impacted populations exist within Santa Monica.
• Development of options to create a cannabis equity program for populations that were disproportionately impacted by the war on drugs and cannabis prohibition, specifically in the City of Santa Monica.
The anticipated schedule of activities for the equity assessment is as follows:
• March 2024: Receive grant funding/execute the grant agreement; conduct City Council Study Session on cannabis equity assessment; issue Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit consultants to conduct cannabis equity assessment. • May 2024: Select and award consultant contract for cannabis equity assessment; research and partner with local agencies to begin outlining an assessment strategy.
5.H
Packet Pg. 294
5 of 6
• May – December 2024: Collect and analyze historical data and findings; conduct community outreach; conduct comparative analysis of peer cities’ cannabis equity assessments/programs; receive direction from City Council and apply for Cannabis Equity Program Grant (Type 1) to develop cannabis equity program if directed by Council.
The findings of the cannabis equity assessment will inform the adult-use cannabis ordinance and potential forthcoming development of a cannabis equity program.
Additional grant funding may be applied for in the future through this grant program to assist with preparing a cannabis equity program. The amount available for request varies each year based on available State funds.
Environmental Analysis
The acceptance and use of grant funding is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. The grant activities are covered by the common sense exemption which states that CEQA does not apply, “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” The grant will allow the City Planning Division to prepare a Cannabis Equity Assessment as the first step of developing an Adult-Use Cannabis Program. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that the grant would not result in adverse physical impacts on the environment, and as such, is categorically exempt from CEQA.

Subject: Award Bid and Enter into Agreement with Convergint Technologies LLC. for a Video Management System.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of no possibility of significant effect pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
2. Award Bid #387 to Convergint Technologies, LLC, a California-based company for installation and maintenance of a Video Management System.
3. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Convergint Technologies, LLC for installation of a Video Management System in an amount not to exceed $424,318 (including a 20% contingency for adding potential cameras in the future). This sum includes installation, programming, and maintenance for a total of 5 years of service, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval.
Summary
The current City of Santa Monica Video Management System (“VMS”) has been in use since 2013 and has not scaled well with the increased demands and complexities of the City’s camera network. It lacks many of the features and capabilities of a modern VMS and has been the source of several failed attempts to obtain video recordings during the investigation of high priority incidents. Consistent with the Santa Monica Police Department’s goals of being a benchmark for excellence and embracing emergent technologies, SMPD applied for a grant under the Board of State and Community Corrections (“BSCC”) for an Organized Retail Theft Prevention Grant to create a Real
5.I
Packet Pg. 299
2 of 5
Time Crime Center (“RTCC”). The grant was awarded to SMPD in October 2023 (Attachment A).
This RTCC will be located in the Public Safety Facility and will be referred to as the “SMART” Center (Santa Monica Analytical Real Time Center) (Attachment B). One of the backbone components of the SMART Center and its effective operation is a robust and reliable VMS. Therefore, the SMPD in partnership with the City’s Information Services Department, set out to replace the current VMS as part of the SMART Center project to support its goal of reducing, detecting, and deterring Organized Retail Theft (“ORT”), vehicle theft, and catalytic converter theft. Staff recommends awarding the contract to replace the City’s current VMS to Convergint Technologies LLC.
Discussion
The City’s current VMS manages approximately 825 camera licenses across the city including cameras from the Santa Monica Public Library, 3rd St. Promenade, the Pier, Big Blue Bus, parks, Santa Monica Airport, traffic cameras, and other City facilities such as City Hall, the PSF, and parking structures. The VMS is relied upon heavily by the Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Unit as a means to locate and securely extract video related to investigations. The current VMS has been fraught with repeated failures to keep cameras connected, capture video, and retrieve video for important investigations.
SMPD staff began its research of a VMS replacement in early 2023. Staff attended several technology and security trade shows and visited over 20 law enforcement and critical infrastructure security centers that allowed for staff to view and assess in person the various VMS platforms. Staff also viewed demonstrations directly from several VMS vendors prior to the procurement process initiation. This experience and expertise helped shape the expectations and requirements that were developed for the VMS Request for Proposal (RFP) released on November 21, 2023.
Seven vendors submitted proposals in response to the RFP. Four major VMS brands were offered by the responsive vendors, including VMS platforms by Motorola

Solutions, Milestone, Genetec, and IREX. A team comprising of Police Department and Information Services Department staff evaluated the proposals. The evaluation team evaluated each vendor’s solution with consideration given to pricing, vendor history and capabilities, VMS platform offerings, and vendor support offerings. The evaluation team selected Convergint Technologies and their proposal for a Genetec VMS solutions as the best proposal. This proposal is also the least expensive. Convergint’s proposal includes installation, programming, training, and user licenses. It also includes a prebundled five-year software maintenance and support plan, which provides software updates, patches, and technical support. At the conclusion of a proposed five-year contract term, the estimated annual cost for ongoing support and maintenance is $58,240, which is comparable to the current maintenance costs for the City’s existing VMS system.

Best Bidder Justification
Based on the evaluation criteria and criteria in SMMC 2.24.180 staff recommends awarding the bid to Convergint Technologies. Convergint Technologies has a long history of completing law enforcement agency integrations and product installations.
The Genetec Security Center, which is Convergint’s proposed VMS vendor solution, is well known to SMPD. This VMS platform is used by surrounding Santa Monica community partners including the Los Angeles Metro and the Santa Monica Place Mall, making camera integration with these entities seamless. Genetec is a modern and reliable VMS with a user-friendly and intuitive interface that allows for live monitoring of system health with customizable dashboard layouts. The Genetec system can accommodate the integration of Santa Monica’s existing cameras and the full usage of those cameras on-board capabilities. Convergint, on a direct comparison over the 3-year grant period, was also the lowest bidder for this project.
Environmental Review
The contract for the VMS is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the CEQA Guidelines. The contract is covered by the commonsense exemption which states that CEQA does not apply, “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” The agreement will provide the City with a new video management system. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

Introduction
The City of Santa Monica researched, developed, secured funding, and is currently implementing a Real Time Crime Center (RTCC). Housed within the Santa Monica Police Department (SMPD), the center will be referred to as the Santa Monica Analytical Real Time Center (SMART Center). The SMART Center will be the central command and control nexus for the fusion of technology and support staff with the objectives to detect, prevent, and rapidly investigate criminal activity in the City of Santa Monica. The SMART Center will produce real-time, actionable, information focusing police resources in support of the SMART Center’s goals of a Clean and Safe City of Santa Monica.
Background
According to the Bureau of Justice Assistance at the Department of Justice, “The mission of a Real Time Crime Center (RTCC) is to provide a law enforcement agency with the ability to capitalize on a wide and expanding range of technologies for efficient and effective policing. Such efforts may allow law
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 304 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
2 enforcement officers to respond quickly, or even immediately, to crimes in progress or to those that recently occurred. The technologies available allow law enforcement agencies and officers to respond to crime events more efficiently, more deliberately, with improved operational intelligence, and with a proactive emphasis on officer, citizen, and community safety.” The National Real Time Crime Center Association has tallied over 150 different RTCCs have been developed by law enforcement agencies. RTCCs are becoming best practice in terms of data and technology integration. The conceptual definition and actual implementation of an RTCC may very depending on resources, nature of crime in a community and local governmental interests.
Recognizing the evolving process of creating its own center, the City of Santa Monica assembled a collaborative team to explore the efficacy of such a project.
The team included staff from the City Manager’s office, Finance, ISD, Public Works, and the Santa Monica Police Department. The team was tasked with identifying the benefits of such a Center, quantifying the necessary components, diagnosing potential challenges and create solutions for implementation.
Discussion
A RTCC is a sophisticated and integrated system designed to collect, analyze, and disseminate real-time information and data to support law enforcement agencies in their efforts to prevent and respond to criminal activities and public safety emergencies. A RTCC is the integration of streaming camera feeds and analytical technologies, coupled with law enforcement and open-source databases, all consolidated into one platform.
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 305 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
3 RTCCs have rapidly proven to be a successful and effective tool in 21st Century Policing. Police Magazine, in its article “How Technology Powers Real Time crime Centers” details tangible examples of the advantages of RTCCs in action. The article states, “RTCCs are providing police departments with game-changing crime-fighting capabilities. For example, after unveiling its RTCC in 2021 Newport News, VA, saw an immediate boost in solving crimes. Most notably, the city was able to capture homicides on video, as well as quickly solve a series of carjacking cases.” In addition, the article claimed, “RTCCs also help police gather evidence and solve cases faster. In one incident in Memphis, a shooting occurred at a community basketball court. When police arrived, the suspects fled in different directions. Officers detained as many people as possible. Later, RTCC detectives reviewed the video data and identified the shooter—who was already in police custody. Although no witnesses had pointed out the shooter, the video evidence allowed police to apprehend the culprit.”
Another tangible example of RTCC’s effectiveness, this one closer to home, involved the Beverly Hills Police Department’s (BHPD)RTCC. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) was investigating the murder of four unhoused victims.
The LAPD used video camera images from the homicide scenes and distributed a crime bulletin to all local area law enforcement agencies detailing the suspect vehicle and license plate. Within a day of receiving the information, BHPD’s RTCC identified the suspect vehicle in their city. The RTCC relayed the information to their dispatch center, leading to a traffic stop and subsequent safe arrest of the homicide suspect.
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 306 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
4 To better understand RTCCs, SMPD personnel met with over 17 different agencies across California, Louisiana, Nevada, and Arizona with functioning RTCCs. These agencies included:
Beverly Hills, CA Fresno, CA
Glendale, AZ Las Vegas Metropolitan, NV
Mesa, AZ Long Beach Airport, CA
Salt River, AZ Livermore, CA
Scottsdale, AZ Modesto, CA
Anaheim, CA Sacramento, CA
Chino, CA Southern California Edison
Elk Grove, CA New Orleans, LA
Witnessing the daily operations in various RTCCs and interviewing the teams allowed for the collection of lessons learned.
In addition to visiting these agencies, SMPD received product demonstrations from multiple technology companies offering software and hardware commonly used in RTCCs.
Based on the research, site visits, demonstrations, and consultations, the collaborative team identified crucial benefits of creating the SMART Center:
1. Enhanced Public Safety: The SMART Center would enable faster response times and better situational awareness leading to enhanced public safety.
2. Crime Prevention: Real-time data analysis and predictive analytics empowers SMPD to identify crime trends, enabling proactive measures to prevent criminal activities.

Examples of such future events include the FIFA World Cup and NBA All-Star Game in 2026, the Super Bowl in 2027, and the Olympic Games in 2028.
4. Resource Allocation: Efficient allocation of resources based on real-time data would reduce response times, optimize human resources, and increase the overall effectiveness of public safety efforts.
5. Interagency Collaboration: The SMART Center will facilitate seamless collaboration and information sharing among local, state, and federal agencies, improving overall response to emergencies and investigations.
6. Community Engagement: By utilizing data-driven strategies, the SMPD can tailor community policing efforts to address specific needs and concerns, thereby fostering stronger ties with residents.
7. Cost Efficiency: The SMART Center's data analysis capabilities will lead to more efficient resource utilization, potentially reducing long-term operational costs.
By studying RTCCs, the collaborative team identified the necessary components for the SMART Center. These included:
1. Video Management System (VMS)
2. Data Integration Software, Dashboards and Visualization Tools
3. Camera Network and Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) Cameras
4. Integration with Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS)

When considering the City's current financial challenges and infrastructure, it was clear that several significant barriers needed to be addressed for a timely and successful implementation of the SMART Center. The following outlines challenges that were identified:
1. Cost of Implementation
The estimated cost for the initial set up of the SMART Center was approximately $2.8 million. The annual cost for operation was estimated at $1.5 million. Staff examined opportunities to seek funding through the city’s capital improvement program (CIP). However, Santa Monica’s CIP budget remains constrained with mounting priorities for deferred maintenance on the city’s physical and digital infrastructures, utilities, and buildings.
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 309 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
7 2. Legacy Video Management System (VMS) and Camera Network The city's current VMS is over two decades old. This poses a significant technological challenge. Replacing the VMS would be necessary to ensure compatibility with modern video cameras and to fully integrate it into the SMART Center. The current camera network of the city is comprised of over 900 various cameras with some of the cameras obsolete, damaged, or inoperable. Repairing and modernizing existing video camera network presents a major operational challenge.
3. Vendor and Technology Selection
Selecting the right vendors and technology solutions for the SMART Center can affect the timeline of implementation. Ensuring chosen vendors provide reliable products and support is essential. Conducting thorough evaluations and negotiations can be a protracted process.
4. Operational Considerations
Implementing a comprehensive SMART Center may disrupt ongoing department operations. Coordinating the transition to the various new systems while maintaining public safety and law enforcement activities is critical. Staff training and adjustments to new protocols will require planning and coordination across the police department.
5. Data Privacy and Legal Compliance
Ensuring the SMART Center complies with data privacy laws and regulations is essential. Developing and adhering to data privacy and legal compliance will require robust policies and practices especially when dealing with sensitive law enforcement data.
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 310 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
8 6. Public Perception and Trust
The implementation of advanced video management and data collection systems may raise concerns about privacy and civil liberties among the public. Building and maintaining public trust through transparency, communication, and adherence to legal and ethical standards is crucial to gain community support for the SMART Center.
After identifying the challenges above, the following outlines the solutions pursued and developed to make the SMART Center a reality.
Solution 1: Cost of Implementation
In April of 2023, the implementation team became aware of a grant opportunity with the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC). The BSCC was responsible for administering the Organized Retail Theft (ORT) Prevention Grant Program, which provides resources to assist law enforcement agencies to address organized retail theft, motor vehicle theft, and cargo theft. SMPD submitted a grant proposal to fund the SMART Center Implementation. The SMPD grant project was selected and awarded funding of $6.125 million. This funding will cover the initial implementation cost of the SMART center and the first 3 years of operational costs.
Solution 2: Legacy Video Management System (VMS) and Camera Network To upgrade the City’s VMS and camera network, the outdated VMS will be replaced. This is crucial to ensure compatibility with modern cameras and to meet the SMART Center’s operational needs. This will not only serve the SMART Center but the entire city network. Also, a comprehensive assessment of the City’s
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 311 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
9 camera network will be performed, and aging cameras will be restored, refurbished, or replaced. As needed, additional cameras and ALPRs will be installed. To take advantaged of the enhanced systems, Fusion software will be acquired to create a single platform that provides an integrated display of all technologies incorporated in the SMART Center and Video Analytics software will be acquired to provide the SMART Center with the capability to quickly review and assess hundreds of hours of video collected by the city's camera network. The software will be used for both live operations and investigations. All of this information will be stored on a new scalable video storage platform. City resources, resulting from a one-time allocation of Measure CS funds, will pay for acquiring a video storage platform to maintain all of the city’s video storage needs, including Big Blue Bus, the Library, Public Works, and Transportation. The estimated cost of the video storage unit is estimated at $700,000. This component was not part of the original grant allocation but is vital to the center.
Solution 3: Vendor and Technology Selection
SMPD will develop all proposals for equipment, software, and services and will work with other departments (i.e., Finance, Information Services, and Public Works) on all RFP processes. To expedite the process, where possible, existing contractors / vendors will be utilized.
Solution 4: Operational Considerations
This SMART Center will be located in the Public Safety Facility and includes infrastructure and technology installations, to accommodate operations. SMPD has already partnered with Public Works to design and configure the selected location in the Public Safety Facility. SMPD will also conduct recruitment, training, and onboarding of staff to ensure that staff are well versed in the SMART Center.
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 312 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
10 Staffing will consist of a combination of sworn and professional personnel. The optimum staffing model is still being developed, but the initial operational target is 6 days a week for at least 8 hours a day. Prior to implementation, comprehensive testing of all systems, processes, and software will be performed.
Solution 5: Data Privacy and Legal Compliance
SMPD will develop comprehensive policies and procedures for the operation of the SMART Center, including data privacy, legal compliance, and standard operating procedures. The best practices from around the country and from existing RTCCs will be incorporated into department policy governing the center.
Solution 6: Public Perception and Trust
SMPD will develop a communications campaign to provide information on the SMART Center for the community and key stakeholders. In addition, data regarding the effectiveness of the center in supporting public safety and policing efforts will be made available on the City’s website.
With such variety of projects, the implementation of the SMART Center is a complex endeavor. As a result, the project is divided into three distinct phases, each with its own set of projects, milestones, and deliverables. The following provides an overview of how the implementation will progress through these phases:
Phase 1: Implementation and Configuration (Start Date: 10-01-23) In this initial phase, the focus is on setting up the foundation for the SMART Center.
Phase 2: Testing and Training (Start Date: 06-03-24)
5.I.b
Packet Pg. 313 Attachment: SMART Center Information Item (6243 : Award VMS Contract) Information Item: S.M.A.R.T Center
11 This phase is focused on ensuring the SMART Center has been thoroughly tested and assigned personnel are adequately trained.
Phase 3: Operational GO Live (Start Date: 11-01-24)
The phased approach to implementation allows for a systematic and manageable rollout.
Conclusion
The SMART Center is a critical component of SMPD’s goal of implementing best practices for effective policing. In addition, the SMART Center will bolster community trust in their law enforcement agency’s ability to identify public safety problems, allocate resources efficiently and to swiftly investigate crimes.

Discussion
The Los Angeles Area Fire Chiefs’ Association (LAAFCA) requested that the Santa Monica Fire Department (SMFD) assist with the procurement of a secure cloud-based mapping portal for the operational area to be used for all hazard operational situational awareness, incident management, pre-planning, and reporting/analytics. This software will have the ability to display all Fire service-related CAD data in a single mapping solution. The mapping solution would include:
• Unit and call locations
• Unit status / availability
• Hazard areas / high risk locations
• Integrated Preplans from software such as FirstDue
• Integrated preplans from existing PDF files
• Integrated incident management tools such as Tablet Command • Integrated Incident Action Plans
• Ability to integrate with previously established mapping tools owned and operated by Cal OES
• Data analytics in regard to calls for service, response times, call volume and call type
• Integration with existing WiFire and FIRIS situational awareness / predictive mapping tools
The purpose of this project is to provide a secure, cloud-based common operating platform that allows for seamless data sharing across multiple CAD systems within the region in real time. It is expected that most of the fire departments in LAAFCA will join the project immediately.
The annual costs and funding sources for the proposed award to Intterra are shown in the table below. The first two years include a total contingency of $60,000 and are fully funded from the 2022 UASI grant (approximately $790,000 is dedicated for this project), which the Council awarded to SMFD and to the Information Services Department on

City Council Meeting: March 19, 2024
Agenda Item: 7.A

To: Mayor and City Council
From: David Martin, Director, Administration
Subject: Cannabis Social Equity Study Session
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Review and discuss the presentation on cannabis social equity programs from other cities;
2. Provide direction on two potential policy options for approach to a cannabis social equity program within the City of Santa Monica which will determine the expansiveness of a social equity program and timeline by which staff returns with an ordinance; and
3. Discuss options and provide direction to staff on locational restrictions for the adult-use cannabis ordinance.
Executive Summary
On June 13, 2023, City Council directed staff to prepare an ordinance to allow adult-use cannabis businesses within the City of Santa Monica. As part of that overall direction, Council also directed the creation of a process to allow two medicinal cannabis retailers to sell adult use cannabis and that a social equity component be included in the adultuse cannabis program to help ensure that communities most impacted by federal and state cannabis enforcement are provided an opportunity to benefit from the cannabis industry.
Subsequent to the June 2023 study session, staff initiated work on drafting the ordinance and conducted research of social equity programs in other cities in order to help inform Santa Monica’s program. This report outlines the purpose of equity studies in the context of cannabis, presents comparative research of how social equity has
7.A
Packet Pg. 327
2 of 22
been introduced to cannabis programs in other cities, a summary of those programs, lessons learned from other cities, and presents two options for the framework of a potential social equity program. Council direction is necessary to determine how to structure a selection process and other components of an equity program, the level of impact the social equity component will have on equity applicants, the resources necessary for such a program, and the timeline by which staff can return with an ordinance. In drafting the ordinance, staff is also seeking further direction on locational restrictions.
On January 19, 2024, staff received notification that the City was successful in securing a $40,000 grant to fund a cannabis equity assessment. It is expected that the equity assessment will be completed by the end of 2024 and staff will return to Council to present the findings from the equity assessment and recommendations that will inform the cannabis equity program. The equity assessment could inform program eligibility including consideration of factors such as for income, geography, and prior arrest history. The equity assessment will also inform the components necessary to build an effective cannabis equity program, which could include but are not limited to priority application and licensing, employment, community reinvestment, and investment of future cannabis tax revenues.
The expanse and impact of cannabis equity programs vary greatly by jurisdiction and through a variety of factors. This report provides an overview of cannabis equity assessments and explains how they inform the creation of cannabis equity programs.
By providing a comparative analysis of equity programs from other jurisdictions and options for pursuing the City’s cannabis equity program, staff seeks Council feedback on what level of a cannabis equity program to pursue considering the available resources, time, and desired outcomes.
As staff continues efforts to draft an adult-use cannabis ordinance, further direction from Council is also needed with regards to defining locational restrictions, which could impact where cannabis businesses could locate and how many could potentially be located in Santa Monica.

Discussion
Previous Council Direction
On June 13, 2023, the City Council received a presentation on key policy considerations for allowing adult-use cannabis businesses within the City of Santa Monica. The following summarizes Council’s discussion and direction on key policy questions:
1) Should consumer access to legal adult-use cannabis in Santa Monica be permitted, or should the City maintain the restriction of medicinal-only cannabis? • Council direction: Yes allow adult-use cannabis.
2) What types of cannabis uses should be allowed?
• Council direction: Allow all cannabis businesses including consumption lounges with a focus on ensuring that regulations safeguard public safety and minimize impacts to surrounding uses. Some concerns were expressed about cultivation. Understood that ordinance may initially authorize some businesses (e.g. retail and delivery) with other businesses (e.g. consumption lounges) to come at a later time due to need for further research.
3) Should the City set a limit to the number of retailers and other uses? • Council direction: No cap due to concerns about potential liabilities and increased competition. Direction to explore potential locational restrictions that would naturally result in limiting the total number of cannabis businesses without establishing a cap.
4) Should only the two selected medicinal cannabis retailers be allowed to expand into the adult-use market, or should the City allow new cannabis retailers? • Council direction: Yes, allow two selected medicinal cannabis retailers to sell adult-use cannabis and explore allowing additional retailers.
7.A
Packet Pg. 329
4 of 22
5) Where in the City should cannabis uses be allowed to operate? • Council direction: Operate only in non-residential zones and apply State buffers for distance from sensitive uses.
6) Which land uses, if any, should be recognized as sensitive uses requiring a distance buffer from cannabis uses above and beyond state requirements? • Council direction: Use State buffers as baseline requirement and do not apply the City’s local requirements for medicinal cannabis businesses.
Council expressed concern about oversaturation and for staff to return with options for locational restrictions between cannabis businesses.
In addition to providing direction on the regulatory framework of a new adult-use cannabis ordinance, Council also directed staff to conduct a cannabis equity assessment and create a cannabis equity program to help ensure that the communities most impacted by federal and state cannabis enforcement policies are provided an opportunity to benefit from the cannabis industry.
In providing direction to conduct an equity assessment and create a cannabis equity program, some Councilmembers also expressed concern about a discretionary process and the potential legal and practical issues, based upon the experience of other cities.
Thus, some Councilmembers discussed the merits of a selection process but without a discretionary lens, such as a weighted lottery system. Councilmembers also expressed interest in including requirements for labor practices and diverse hiring.
Interim Zoning Ordinance Authorizing Medicinal Cannabis Retailers to Sell Adult-Use Cannabis
On November 14, 2023, Council adopted Interim Zoning Ordinance No. 2764 allowing the two approved medicinal cannabis retailers to also sell adult-use cannabis. On December 19, 2023, Council extended Interim Zoning Ordinance No. 2764 through
7.A
Packet Pg. 330
5 of 22
adoption of Interim Zoning Ordnance No. 2770. As staff continues efforts to draft an Ordinance to allow for adult-use cannabis retail business and non-retail business types within the City and begins the process to conduct an equity assessment, further Council direction is required on the level and complexity of a cannabis equity program staff should pursue.
Cannabis Social Equity
Social equity in cannabis seeks to recognize the long-term negative impact that the criminalization of cannabis has had on minority communities resulting from the enforcement of federal and state laws related to cannabis use and possession.
Research from communities across the United States has consistently demonstrated the disproportionate enforcement of anti-drug laws for minority groups despite similar cannabis usage rates. In particular, African Americans have been negatively affected by higher rates of arrest and incarceration for cannabis-related activities.
The consequences of a criminal conviction and incarceration include the permanent loss of property, disqualification from employment opportunities, reduced earnings potential, exclusion from public benefits such as housing assistance or student financial aid, and other life-altering impacts. The goal of cannabis social equity is to go beyond simply providing equal access to opportunities by developing an intentional program that helps ensure that the communities most impacted by federal and state cannabis enforcement policies are provided an opportunity to benefit from the newly legalized industry.
Many cities and counties have sought to develop cannabis equity programs as a means for reducing barriers to entry into the commercial cannabis industry for communities and individuals most impacted by the war on drugs. For social equity programs to be meaningful, however, they must be based upon data to identify those communities within each jurisdiction that have historically been most adversely impacted.
For this reason, it is common for development of a cannabis equity program to be preceded by a detailed study or report that analyzes factors such as disproportionate
7.A
Packet Pg. 331
6 of 22
contact by law enforcement, incarceration rates, or other metrics. Cannabis equity assessments are commonly conducted by local community foundations, universities, or other research organizations with significant outreach to local community members. The State of California through the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) has historically provided annual funding to local jurisdictions to assist with development of cannabis equity studies (https://business.ca.gov/cannabisequity-grants-program-for-local-jurisdictions/).
Once the local jurisdiction has identified affected communities, there are numerous policy options for promoting equity. Equity in the cannabis context means providing affected communities opportunities for equitable ownership and employment opportunities in the cannabis industry, or in some cases a percentage of the profits from the sale of cannabis, in order to decrease disparities in life outcomes for historically marginalized communities.
Figure 1: Fully implementing social equity in cannabis requires providing specifically focused assistance to ensure that affected communities have equitable access to the cannabis industry
Policy options may include application criteria specific to equity applicants, fee waivers, business development assistance, workforce training, assistance with accessing startup capital, business mentorship, assistance with expunging cannabis-related criminal

records, and utilizing cannabis tax revenues to fund community reinvestment.
Regardless of what benefits the City offers, it is important to recognize the challenges that other cities have faced in implementing local cannabis equity programs. These challenges can include manipulative behavior by non-qualifying individuals taking advantage of the program, sunk costs for applicants who are ultimately unable to obtain a license, and limited staff resources to develop and implement a comprehensive program.
In addition, there are unique barriers to entry into the cannabis market that make the push for equity in the industry particularly challenging relative to other business types.
These barriers include startup costs that can approach or exceed one million dollars, intense competition for a finite number of licenses, and limited availability of real estate within eligible zones of the city. Although significant, these challenges should not act as a deterrent to creating a cannabis equity program. They simply point to the need for policymakers to carefully think through the parameters of an equity program which starts with development of a cannabis equity assessment.
Cannabis Equity Grants Program for Local Jurisdictions
The State of California through GO-Biz has historically provided annual funding to local jurisdictions to assist with development of cannabis equity assessments.
City Planning Division staff, with support from the DEI team, applied for the Cannabis Equity Grants Program for Local Jurisdictions Type 1 Grant funding from GO-Biz to conduct a cannabis equity assessment for the City of Santa Monica. The grant was awarded on January 19, 2024, for the maximum amount of $40,000 to conduct the assessment. The funds will be allocated to consultant contract services and personnel reimbursement. The equity assessment will help document the historical criminalization of cannabis and its disproportionate impact on specific populations in Santa Monica.
The equity assessment will analyze both quantitative data including cannabis criminal arrest and demographic data along with qualitative data from surveys and community engagement to develop key findings and recommendations. Additional grant funding may be applied for in the future through this grant program to assist with preparing a
7.A
Packet Pg. 333

cannabis equity program. The amount available for request varies each year based on available State funds.
Regardless of the level of a cannabis equity program that the City should choose to pursue as discussed below, a cannabis equity assessment will be conducted to inform the cannabis equity program.
Discussion
Review of Equity Programs of Other Jurisdictions
In order to understand how to structure a cannabis equity program and what elements might be included, staff researched programs from other cities and spoke to staff who have established and implemented those programs. The following table provides a high-level summary of how various cities approached their cannabis equity programs and the resources necessary to implement the program. More detailed descriptions of social equity programs from other jurisdictions are provided in Attachment A.

• **Note: Of jurisdictions that had an equity program, all included standard best practices such as fee waivers and priority processing. This distinction informed the equity options being presented to Council for consideration.
In all cases, cities developed a selection process to ensure that equity applicants could be given priority. Some of the salient points in reviewing the adult-use cannabis program of other cities were the following:
• A selection process is crucial to ensure that the equity program most benefits equity applicants from affected communities,
• Subsequent to development of an initial equity program, cities have needed to continue to refine and evolve the program to ensure that it meets the needs of equity applicants, and
• Most cities have staff dedicated solely to administer the cannabis program and/or its equity component.
Lessons Learned
The following summarize the lessons learned from the comparative research of cannabis equity programs from other cities and a brief explanation of how they apply to the Santa Monica context:
Regulatory Lesson
1. Establish a limit (whether through cap or other means) to number of licenses for retail locations.
o Council directed that no cap be placed on the number of adult-use cannabis businesses. In most other jurisdictions that staff reviewed, programs that started with no controls on the number of businesses ended up grappling with an over concentration of businesses. This has made it a challenge to scale back the number of businesses after the fact and also

limit the number of total applicants while trying to apply an equity component.
Process Lessons
2. Create a selection process that requires meeting minimum qualifications to be an equity applicant and then apply a selection process that could include a lotterybased system. o Council provided direction to explore a non-discretionary selection process. Once Council direction is received on the equity program, staff will return with the ordinance and options for a selection process given Council’s stated concerns about not having an excessively long selection process and concerns about legal liabilities.
3. If not developing an enhanced equity program, recommend setting aside a percentage of permits for equity businesses. Open applications to equity applicants before making it generally available.
o If an adult-use cannabis ordinance is developed without an equity component, it is likely that equity applicants will have additional challenges in finding available locations, which will affect their ability to participate in the cannabis industry. Cities that have created an equity component after development of the regulatory ordinance found they needed to create mechanisms to ensure that a share of equity licenses are exclusively for equity applicants. The range of possibilities include setting aside a percentage of licenses compared to some cities that are only accepting applications from equity applicants.
4. Keep the application process simple: Background checks and ownership structure transparency should always be required. Eligibility criteria should not be too broad for equity applicants.
o Equity applicants face many challenges to starting a business so any application process would need to be simple and easy to understand. The criteria to qualify as an equity applicant should also not be so onerous that it discourages broad participation. Lessons learned from other cities also

emphasized that it should be required that equity applicants have at least 51% ownership in the cannabis business.
5. Develop informational tools such as an interactive GIS cannabis map so businesses can identify existing locations.
o Similar to informational business assistance tools that the City has already developed, this is an example of tools that the City would need to develop to help cannabis operators, including equity applicants learn and find information on the basics of how and where to start a business.
6. Sale of permits should either be prohibited or restrictions placed on their sale to ensure continuation of equity program.
o The sale of permits is an important future consideration after the development of a cannabis program and particularly in the context of an equity program. If the program’s goals include reserving some percentage of licenses for equity applicants then the sale of permits would necessarily need to be restricted in some way. However, this could mean that equity applicants potentially do not receive the full benefit of their investment if their licenses are valued differently in the market compared to non-equity licenses. This is a consideration that Council is not being asked to provide direction on at this time but is being highlighted as a component that will need further study.
Staffing Lesson
7. Create a dedicated cannabis department to ensure appropriate regulatory oversight and enforcement and provide necessary educational, technical, and business support to equity applicants.
o Even if cities created the cannabis program and equity component inhouse, all cities had staff dedicated solely to the cannabis program. Given the changing landscape of cannabis, additional staff or consultant support will be necessary to provide hands-on technical and educational assistance to equity applicants. Further, if public safety impacts of

cannabis businesses are a concern, dedicated staff are necessary to ensure appropriate oversight of cannabis businesses.
Permitting Lessons
The following lessons are related to permitting and will be considered by staff in the development of the adult-use cannabis ordinance.
8. Although equity applicants may be allowed in more desirable areas of the city, there may be pushback from non-equity operators.
9. Explore possibilities to not give businesses a vested right to run with the land for cannabis uses.
o Conferring vested rights that run with the land for cannabis uses means that it would not allow future adjustment of operations if the City evolves the cannabis program. The City may want to explore options regarding this to allow flexibility in how the program is implemented.
10.Understand the nuances of the different cannabis operations for each permit type to have a successful program.
Equity Framework Options
Based on the comparative research of other cities and lessons learned, staff developed two policy options for the framework of a cannabis equity program – a Standard Equity option and an Enhanced Equity option. The Standard Equity option would result in a shorter timeframe to develop compared to the Enhanced Equity option and would utilize best practices and elements from equity programs in other jurisdictions. Cities that have more of a Standard Equity program include Palm Springs. Cities that have more of an Enhanced Equity program include Long Beach, San Francisco, Oakland, and Los Angeles. The differences in potential costs, staffing resources, and processes required are also highlighted in the table. The “Ordinance Only” column represents the process and timeline if only an adult-use cannabis ordinance is pursued without an equity program – this is in line with the programs in West Hollywood and Culver City. This column is only presented as a baseline for comparison with the Standard Equity and Enhanced Equity options.
