2. Who is required to disclose?
A “party” to a proceeding is any person who files an application for, or is the subject of, a proceeding. In general, a person or company who applies for a permit, license, or right to use property in a particular way, which requires the City’s discretionary approval, will qualify as a party.
Parties are also required to disclose contributions by their agents. An “agent” is someone who (1) represents a party to a proceeding for compensation; and (2) appears before or otherwise communicates with the City for the purpose of influencing the pending proceeding. This can include law firms, architects, engineers, consultants, and similar entities. Both the individual and their employer or firm are considered “agents.” A party should also disclose contributions of other entities majority owned by the party, as well as contributions of any other entity whose contributions it directs or controls.
3. What must be disclosed?
A party must disclose campaign contributions over $250 made in the prior twelve months.
A “contribution” is anything of value for which the party has not received full consideration, including money, nonmonetary items, payments made for advertising or
5.D.e
Packet Pg. 246 Attachment: Tyler Technologies - Levine Act Disclosure Form (2024) (6574 : Approval of First Modification to Tyler Technologies Agreement for
other expenses coordinated with a candidate or committee, loans, tickets to political fundraisers, etc.
4. Who is considered an officer of the City?
An “officer” is anyone who may make, participate in making, or attempt to influence a decision in the proceeding or who exercises authority over officers who may do so. This includes elected officials, members of appointed boards and commissions, the City Manager, and any individual who is a candidate for elected office or who has been a candidate in the twelve months prior to the decision. This definition is included on the Disclosure Form.
5. When should the disclosure occur?
The Disclosure Form must be completed (1) by a party to a contract with the City (or that party’s agent) at the time the party submits a response to a Request for Proposal or other competitive solicitation, enters into contract negotiations with the City, or executes a contract with the City, whichever is earliest; or (2) by a party to a license, permit, or other entitlement proceeding before the City at the time the party (or their agent) submits the license, permit, or entitlement application to the City. The party (or their agent) must submit a supplemental form if they make any new reportable contributions while the same contract, license, permit, or other entitlement is being considered. The party (or their agent) must also use the form if they need to correct any previously submitted form.
Parties are solely responsible for completing the form accurately, and could face penalties for failure to do so. The California Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) is the body who enforces violations of the Levine Act. If a party is uncertain about whether they are required to report or combine a contribution, they should consult with their attorney.
Nothing herein constitutes legal advice and individuals are urged to consult with their own attorney regarding the requirements of the law. To the extent there is any inconsistency, the language of the Levine Act and FPPC Regulations govern over this notice. Resources for officers, parties, participants, and agents, are available on the FPPC’s website at https://www.fppc.ca.gov/learn/pay-to-play-limits-and-prohibitions.html

City Council Meeting: October 8, 2024
Agenda Item: 5.E
1 of 3
To: Mayor and City Council
From: David Martin, Director, Administration
Subject: Adoption of Resolution Declaring Surplus Properties Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a Resolution declaring the seven City-owned parcels at Assessor Parcel Numbers (APNs) 4290-011-906 (“Apple Building”); 4290-011-903, 4290-011-904, 4290-011-905 (“Parking Lot 29”); and, APN 4290-011-901, 4290-011-902, 4290- 011-909 (“Expo Lot”) as surplus lands to comply with the Surplus Land Act.
2. Adopt a finding of categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15312 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and a finding of no possibility of significant effect on the environment pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.
Summary
The California Surplus Land Act (Government Code 54220 et seq.) (the “SLA”) governs the disposition of local agency-owned properties. Under the SLA, local agency-owned properties must be declared “surplus” or “exempt surplus” by the legislative body of the local agency and supported by written findings. To ensure compliance with the SLA, Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution (Attachment C) declaring the seven City-owned parcels referenced below as surplus land:
• 4290-011-906 (Apple Building)
• 4290-011-903, 4290-011-904, 4290-011-905 (Parking Lot 29) • 4290-011-901, 4290-011-902, 4290-011-909 (Expo Lot)
Discussion

2 of 3
Council authorized the designation of APN 4290-011-906 (Apple Building) as surplus land with the adoption of Resolution 11327 (Attachment A) at its meeting on March 23, 2021. Parcels 4290-011-903, 4290-011-904, 4290-011-905 (Parking Lot 29) and 4290- 011-901, 4290-011-909 (Expo Lot) were declared surplus with the adoption of Resolution 11470 (Attachment B) on October 11, 2022. Parcel 4290-011-902 was inadvertently omitted in Resolution 11470. The attached resolution corrects the omission of 4290-011-902 and consolidates the surplus declaration of all seven parcels in one resolution (Attachment C).
Environmental Review
The designation of this property as surplus land is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15312 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines as the action involves the first step in the sale of surplus government property that is not located in an area of statewide, regional, or areawide concern identified in Section 15206(b)(4) of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Furthermore, the adoption of the resolution is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, 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.” No development is being authorized at this time. Adoption of the resolution does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, as no development is authorized by this resolution and any future disposition will require separate environmental analysis if, and, when, the details of such disposition are known.

City Council Meeting: October 8, 2024
Agenda Item: 5.F
1 of 6
To: Mayor and City Council
From: David White, City Manager, City Manager's Office
Subject: Accept Proposal and Enter into Agreement with the San Francisco AIDS Foundation for the AIDS/LifeCycle 2025 Finish Line Festival Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15323 (Class 23 Normal Operations of Facilities for Public Gatherings) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a license agreement with the San Francisco AIDS Foundation for use of the 4 South Beach Parking Lot from June 7-8, 2025 for the “AIDS/LifeCycle 2025 Finish Line Event.” Summary
Since 2023, Santa Monica has hosted the Finish Line Festival for the AIDS/LifeCycle as part of SaMoPride. AIDS/LifeCycle (The Ride), a 7 day, 545-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles co-produced by and benefiting San Francisco AIDS Foundation and the Los Angeles LGBT Center, brings approximately 2,200 cyclists down the California coastline over a 545-mile route from San Francisco to Santa Monica. The Ride is the premier fundraising event for both agencies, and in 2024 raised $10.9 million for HIV/AIDS services in the San Francisco and Los Angeles regions. Staff now requests authorization to have the Finish Line Festival for AIDS/LifeCycle return to Santa Monica for 2025. The event would again be held in City Beach Lot 4 South. This will mark the final Finish Line Event for the AIDS LifeCycle, which has announced the ride will be discontinued after 2025.

To further embrace the City’s core values of equity and inclusion, SaMoPride was established in 2019 as a city-wide partnership between the City of Santa Monica, Downtown Santa Monica, Inc., Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica Place and Santa Monica Travel and Tourism dedicated to celebrating the LGBTQ+ community and providing a platform to champion individuality and acceptance. SaMoPride continues to strive to increase visibility and understanding of the broad spectrum of gender identities and experiences within the LGBTQ+ community. The City’s perfect score on the Human Rights’ Campaign’s 2023 Municipal Equality Index is recognition of the community’s broad commitment to LGBTQ+ equity inclusion, creation of safe spaces, inclusive policies, and advocacy for LGBTQ+ protections.
The opportunity to host The Ride and the Finish Line Festival event in Santa Monica advances the work established by the City and SaMoPride partners to support the LGBTQ+ community and address issues facing this community. Services for those living with HIV/AIDS remains a critical health need. The Center for Disease Control estimates that 62,800 people with HIV/AIDS are living in Los Angeles County. The virus disproportionately affects people of color and the LGBTQ+ community, those who have difficulty accessing traditional healthcare services. Those living with HIV/AIDS are also at greater risk of becoming homeless. The range of services funded by the AIDS/LifeCycle event help support this community to ensure access to treatment, education, and other services.
Overview of the Ride
The Ride is a 7-day, 545-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles, coproduced by and benefiting San Francisco AIDS Foundation and the Los Angeles LGBT Center. The Ride began in 1994 and was called the “California AIDS Ride.” In 2002, it was rebranded as AIDS/LifeCycle. Since 1994, participants have raised more than $300 million for the HIV and AIDS-related services of the Los Angeles LGBT Center and San Francisco AIDS Foundation. In 2024, the Ride raised $10.9 million, which serves to underwrite significant costs for the health services provided by these two agencies.
Overview of the Event
5.F
Packet Pg. 268
3 of 6
The AIDS/LifeCycle Finish Line Festival incorporates both a finish line experience for 2,200 cyclists and 650 7-day volunteers (called Roadies), as well as a reception point for event vehicles, supplies, and equipment. The event would be held on June 8, 2025, in the 4 South Beach Parking lot. Cyclists will use the City’s existing bike lane network to exit off the Beach Bike Path at Channel Road and navigate up to Ocean Avenue where they will use the bike lanes to ride down to Bicknell and enter the event site.
Cyclists are paced when leaving the campsite in Ventura and ride single file on public streets abiding by all laws, and according to a strict set of safety policies that are enforced by event staff throughout the duration of the Ride. This means that unlike other traditional “race” events, participants steadily enter the event site over the course of 4 hours rather than en masse at any one time. This allows all roads to remain open during the event.
In shaping its event proposal in 2024, the AIDS/LifeCycle event team engaged with several relevant City departments, including the Santa Monica Police Department, Mobility and Parking staff within the Department of Transportation, Economic Development/Pier Management, the Community Events Team, the City Attorney’s Office, and the City Manager’s Office. The AIDS/LifeCycle team also worked closely with the Ocean Park Association, Main Street Businesses, and other stakeholders as part of ensuring a safe and successful event.
The AIDS/LifeCycle event team has already engaged City staff for the 2025 Finish Line Festival event to again align event plans with key Council and community objectives— including safety and security of the event site and surrounding areas, planning for traffic management and alternative mobility options, and supporting economic development for the City.
The event will involve closure of the 4 South Beach lot from noon on June 7, 2025, through June 8, 2025. Event activities will mirror those in 2023 and 2024, including:
• Barricaded cyclist chute through which participants cross finish line • Spectator area where viewers can watch and cheer on the cyclists

• Bike Parking for 1,000 cyclists

• Sponsorship activations
License Agreement
The City’s Community Events Permit process and Site Guidelines do not currently allow for events on the Santa Monica Beach and Beach Lots during the peak summer months, in order to preserve maximum access for beachgoers. Outside of summer, beach events are required to have a “beach-related activity” such as beach sports as a primary component. Therefore, a license agreement is required to produce the Finish Line Festival. Staff supports this event because of the potential economic impact and Santa Monica’s commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusion. Staff also support this event because of the AIDS LifeCycle’s demonstrated commitment to a good neighbor policy, engaging with the local neighbors and businesses to ensure a successful event. Sadly, this will be the final AIDS/LifeCycle Ride as the costs of producing the event have forced the event producers to rethink fundraising strategies to continue providing these much needed services.
Coastal Commission Approval
This event will require a Coastal Development Permit because it occurs between Memorial Day and Labor Day, pursuant to the Coastal Commission’s adopted Guidelines for the Exclusion of Temporary Events from Coastal Commission Permit Requirements, dated May 12, 1993. This was permitted for the 2023 event and staff does not perceive any issues receiving the permit again this year. The City’s adopted 1992 Coastal Land Use Plan would be the standard of review, in addition to the
5.F

aforementioned guidelines, however, the 1992 LUP does not contain any policies regarding temporary events.

Environmental Review
The event is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15323 (Class 23 Normal Operations of Facilities for Public Gatherings) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines. Class 23 consists of the normal operations of existing facilities for public gatherings for which the facilities were designed, where there is a history of the facility being used for the same or similar kind of purpose in where there is a past history of the facility being used for the same or similar kind of purpose. The 4 South Beach Parking lot and City’s bicycle network has been previously used for public events, and therefore, the AIDS/LifeCycle 2025 Finish Line Event is categorically exempt from CEQA.
Financial Impacts and Budget Actions
There is no budget action necessary as a result of the recommended action. The City will receive $25,612 in revenues to the Beach Fund for use of the 4 South Beach Lot and parking staff costs associated with supporting the event. The Event producers will also be required to pay fees for all necessary permits and licenses.

Finish Line Festival Event Narrative
OVERVIEW
This narrative details the Finish Line Festival event that will conclude AIDS/LifeCycle 2025, a 7-day bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles (also referred to herein as ‘ALC’ or ‘the Ride’). In 2023, the AIDS/LifeCycle event organizers, in conjunction with representatives from the City of Santa Monica, approved a contract to bring ALC’s Finish Line Festival experience to Santa Monica’s Parking Lot 4 South. The event was a huge hit with participants, supporters, event staff, and the surrounding community, and returned to Santa Monica for a second year in 2024.
After a very successful 2024 event, the event organizers are working with the City of Santa Monica to return to Parking Lot 4 South for their 2025 event as a part of Santa Monica’s month of Pride Programming. The event plan as proposed to the City of Santa Monica will include the activation of the long term parking portions of Lot 4 South to house the AIDS/LifeCycle Finish Line, Finish Line Festival, and participant services. The event will be free and open to the public, and will occur on Saturday, June 7, 2025, from approximately 10AM to 4PM.

Finish Line Festival Event Narrative
EVENT DESCRIPTION - PARKING LOT 4 SOUTH
Parking Lot 4 South will house event infrastructure that exists to support the Finish Line experience and getting ALC participants off of the event:
● Finish Line Chute: A delineated, protected lane for event cyclist traffic, with runs of barricade on either side to protect cyclists. We will have approximately 1,500 cyclists, all riding single file & spaced out with a full bike length between them and the bike in front of them, crossing the finish line at some point between 10AM and 4PM. The flow of cyclists is gradual and follows the arc of a bell curve - it’s a trickle of cyclists between 10AM and 1PM; then a heavier flow between 1PM and 3PM; then back to a trickle from 3PM to 4PM. Spectators typically line up along the chute to watch their friends and family cross the finish line.
● Finish Line: The official ending point of the event for cyclists ● Bike Parking: And area of racks where cyclists can park their bikes after they cross the finish line
● Bike Shipping: A service provided by ALC partners to help participants ship their bikes home after the event
● Gear Pick-Up: ALC carries all participant gear forward during the full 7 days of the Ride event. The Gear Pick Up lot is designated as the location for all gear to end up. The operation consists of unloading approx. 16 box trucks full of participant luggage into an area delineated by temporary event fencing and restricted to access by participants only. ● Festival Stage - live entertainment (DJs, performances, etc.) will be staged, in addition to a Closing Ceremony
● Event Booths - elements like a Camp Store, a registration booth for the AIDS/LifeCycle 2026 event, sponsor activations, snacks and lost & found, etc. ● Food & food trucks - some food is available for free for event participants only; some food is available to all for purchase
● Seating, etc.
● Important Notes:
○ All infrastructure related to the Finish Line Festival will be contained within the parking lot’s footprint. There are no activated event spaces on the sand/beach.
ATTENDANCE
Total Anticipated Attendance: 2,200 ALC Participants (Cyclists, Volunteers, Staff, Vendors) plus 3,000 attendees for a Total of 5,200 - 5,500 people

OAKS INITIATIVE NOTICE
NOTICE TO APPLICANTS, BIDDERS, PROPOSERS
AND OTHERS SEEKING DISCRETIONARY PERMITS, CONTRACTS,
OR OTHER BENEFITS FROM THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
Santa Monica’s voters adopted a City Charter amendment commonly known as the Oaks Initiative. The Oaks Initiative requires the City to provide this notice and information about the Initiative’s requirements. You may obtain a full copy of the Initiative’s text from the City Clerk.
This information is required by City Charter Article XXII—Taxpayer Protection.
It prohibits a public official from receiving, and a person or entity from conferring, specified personal benefits or campaign advantages from a person or entity after the official votes, or otherwise takes official action, to award a “public benefit” to that person or entity. The prohibition applies within and outside of the geographical boundaries of Santa Monica.
All persons or entities applying or receiving public benefits from the City of Santa Monica shall provide the names of trustees, directors, partners, and officers, and names of persons with more than a 10% equity, participation or revenue interest. An exception exists for persons serving in those capacities as volunteers, without compensation, for organizations exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3), (4), or (6), of the Internal Revenue Code. However, this exception does not apply if the organization is a political committee or controls political committees.
Examples of a “public benefit” include public contracts to provide goods or services worth more than $25,000 or a land use approval worth more than $25,000 over a 12- month period.
In order to facilitate compliance with the requirements of the Oaks Initiative, the City compiles and maintains certain information. That information includes the name of any person or persons who is seeking a “public benefit.” If the “public benefit” is sought by an entity, rather than an individual person, the information includes the name of every person who is: (a) trustee, (b) director, (c) partner, (d) officer, or has (e) more than a ten percent interest in the entity. Therefore, if you are seeking a “public benefit” covered by the Oaks Initiative, you must supply that information on the Oaks Initiative Disclosure Form. This information must be updated and supplied every 12 months.

Finish Line Festival Event Narrative AIDS/LifeCycle®
OVERVIEW
This narrative details the Finish Line Festival event, which occurs as the final moment of the AIDS/LifeCycle 7-day bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles (also referred to herein as 'ALC' or 'the Ride')_In 2023, the AIDS/LifeCycle event organizers, in conjunction with representatives from the City of Santa Monica, approved a contract to bring ALC's Finish Line Festival experience to Santa Monica's Parking Loi 4 South. The event was a huge hit with participants, supporters, event staff, and the surrounding community.
After a very successful 2023 event, the event organizers are working with the City of Santa Monica to return to Parking Lot 4 South for their 2024 event, as a part of Santa Monica's month of Pride Programming The event will be free and open to the public, and will occur on Saturday, June 8, 2024, from approximately 10AM to 4PM.
The event plan as proposed to the City of Santa Monica will include the activation of the long term parking portions of Lot 4 South to house the AIDS/LifeCycle Finish Line, Finish Line Festival, and participant services

• Finish Line Chute A delineated, protected lane for event cyclist traffic, with runs of barricade on either side to protect cyclists. We will have approximately 2,500 cyclists, all riding single file & spaced out with a full bike length between them and the bike in front of them, crossing the finish line at some point between 10AM and 4PM. The flow of cyclists is gradual and follows the arc of a bell curve - it's a trickle of cyclists between 1DAM and 1PM; then a heavier flow between 1PM and 3PM; then back to a trickle from 3PM to 4PM Spectators typically line up along the chute to watch their friends and family cross the finish line.
• Finish Line: The official ending point of the event for cyclists • Bike Parking: And area of racks where cyclists can park their bikes after they cross the finish line
• Bike Shipping· A service provided by ALC partners to help participants ship their bikes home after the event
• Gear Pick-Up: ALC carries all participant gear forward during the full 7 days of the Ride event. The Gear Pick Up lot is designated as the location for all gear to end up. The operation consists of unloading approx. 16 box trucks full of participant luggage into an area delineated by temporary event fencing and restricted to access by participants only • Festival Stage - live entertainment (DJs, performances, etc.) will be staged, in addition tc a Closing Ceremony

Section 9.10.040 Land Use Regulations
Table 9.10.040 prescribes the land use regulations for Downtown Districts. The regulations for each district are established by letter designations below. These designations apply strictly to the permissibility of land uses; applications for buildings or structures may require discretionary review.
“P” designates permitted uses.
“L(#)” designates limited uses, which are permitted by right, provided they comply with specific limitations listed at the end of the table.
“MUP” designates use classifications that are permitted after review and approval of a Minor Use Permit.
“CUP” designates use classifications that are permitted after review and approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
“—” designates uses that are not permitted.
Land uses are defined in Chapter 9.51 (“Use Classifications”) of Article 9 of the Santa Monica Municipal Code (“Zoning Ordinance”). Use classifications and sub-classifications not listed in the table are prohibited.

Table 9.11.020 prescribes the land use regulations for Mixed-Use and Commercial Districts. The regulations for each district are established by letter designations below.
These designations apply strictly to the permissibility of land uses; applications for buildings or structures may require discretionary review. “P” designates permitted uses.
“L(#)” designates limited uses, which are permitted by right, provided they comply with specific limitations listed at the end of the table.
“MUP” designates use classifications that are permitted after review and approval of a Minor Use Permit.
“CUP” designates use classifications that are permitted after review and approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
“—” designates uses that are not permitted.
Land uses are defined in Chapter 9.51 (“Use Classifications”) of Article 9 of the Santa Monica Municipal code (“Zoning Ordinance”). Use classifications and sub-classifications not listed in the table are prohibited. Accessory uses are permissible when they are determined by the Zoning Administrator to be necessary and customarily associated with and appropriate, incidental, and subordinate to, the principal uses and which are consistent and not more disturbing or disruptive than permitted uses. The table also notes additional use regulations that apply to various uses. Section numbers in the right-hand column refer to other Sections of this Ordinance.
