11. Such other legal services as may be directed by the City Council or City Manager from time to time.

2. Labor and Employment matters;
3. Environmental Law Services, including but not limited to, Hazardous Waste, Clean Air Act, and Clean Water Act issues;

Special Services, other than Public Records Act Requests, will be billed to, and compensated by, the City at a composite hourly rate of $280 per hour for all attorneys. We understand Public Records Act requests have been time consuming and costly to the City in the past. Understanding the nature and extent of those requests, our services related to Public Records Act requests will be billed to, and compensated by, the City at a further discounted composite hourly rate of $225 18 - 72
City of South Pasadena
Proposal for City Attorney Services
per hour for all attorneys. Travel time incurred for Special Services would be compensated at the Special Services rate, although we do not anticipate incurring any significant travel time for special services.
Litigation Services. Litigation Services are defined as the representation of the City in all aspects of the initiation, advancement, or defense of claims in litigation, arbitration, or mediation.
Additionally, Litigation Services include representation of the City in administrative proceedings before other public agencies. Litigation Services shall be billed to, and compensated by, the City at composite hourly rates of $310 per hour for all attorneys, except as to services for Pitchess Motions and Code Enforcement, which shall be billed to, and compensated by, the City at a discounted composite hourly rate of $245 per hour for all attorneys. Travel time incurred for Litigation Services would be compensated at the Litigation Services rates.
Third-Party Services. Legal services that the City elects to have reimbursed by third-parties shall be compensated at a 10% discount from the Firm’s then-standard hourly rates. Travel time incurred for Third-Party Services would be compensated at the Third-Party Services rates.
Paralegal Services. Services performed by paralegals shall be billed to, and compensated by, the City at a composite hourly rate of $195 per hour for all Paralegals in all substantive areas. Travel time incurred for Paralegal Services would be compensated at the Paralegal Services rates.
Bond Counsel Services.
Bond Counsel Services will be defined as bond counsel, disclosure counsel and/or issuer counsel services in connection with the issuance of bonds or other obligations by the City, or any entity created, formed or controlled by the City. Bond Counsel Services will be billed to, and compensated by, the City as follows:
1. RWG shall charge a composite hourly rate for all attorneys of $395 per hour for any of these services. The maximum total fee charged for an issuance shall not exceed an amount that the City Manager deems fair and reasonable.
2. RWG’s costs and expenses shall be paid in accordance with its legal services agreement.
3. In the event the proceedings for issuance of the bonds are terminated before closing, RWG would expect to be paid for its services to the date of abandonment at the hourly rate set forth above, not to exceed an amount that the City Manager deems fair and reasonable.
4. If providing Bond Counsel Services involves the formation of a joint powers authority or another entity controlled by the City, RWG shall provide such Bond Counsel Services 18 - 73
City of South Pasadena
Proposal for City Attorney Services
(including formation of the entity) on the same compensation terms as specified in its legal services agreement.
5. Supplemental bond counsel fees for unanticipated circumstances:
a. As to lease revenue bonds, in some instances it may be necessary to call upon the real estate expertise at our Firm to resolve unanticipated issues that arise over questions of title, encumbrances, or other matters relating to the leased assets. In those instances, we will bill our additional time devoted to such unanticipated issues at a composite rate of $295 per hour. We will notify the City at the earliest point possible if we believe that the work rises to the level of additional time subject to this paragraph. The total fee for this additional work will not exceed an amount which the City Manager deems fair and reasonable, and would be supplemental to the fee amounts due under subsection 1 above.
b. As to the refunding of existing tax-exempt bonds, in some instances our review of the timing or purposes of expenditures of proceeds of the refunded bonds, or the use of property financed or refinanced with proceeds of the refunded bonds, could require unanticipated supplemental analysis. In those instances, we will bill our additional time at a composite rate of $295 per hour. We will notify the City at the earliest point possible if we believe that the work rises to the level of supplemental analysis subject to this paragraph. The total fee for this supplemental analysis will not exceed an amount which the City Manager deems fair and reasonable, and would be supplemental to the fee amounts due under subsection 1 above.
Billing Method
Time incurred in providing legal services will be billed in six-minute increments to billing accounts set up as specified by staff. Our invoices provide explanations of tasks performed, dates of work, and the names of the attorneys that performed the work. Electronic payments are the Firm’s preferred method of payment. Bills are submitted to the client monthly with payment due during the following 30 days. We have included a sample invoice as Exhibit 7.
Reimbursable Costs
In addition to legal fees, we will bill the City for costs in connection with our representation.
Mileage and hourly rates will be charged to and from our Los Angeles office based on the federal government’s standard mileage rate. Other costs include copying documents ($.05/page), court fees, litigation costs, travel costs, messenger and delivery services, and other similar costs. Such costs frequently are billed to the Firm from third-party vendors and therefore there sometimes will be a delay between the time such costs are incurred and the time when they appear on your 18 - 74
City of South Pasadena
Proposal for City Attorney Services
bill. Please note that we make every effort to be as efficient and cost-effective as possible. For example, we transmit documents by e-mail whenever possible to avoid postage charges and we use e-filing options with the court when allowed and feasible rather than a messenger service.
Staff Training
RWG will provide without charge one two-hour AB 1234 training session each fiscal year and up to 15 hours of training each fiscal year on topics mutually agreed upon with the City Manager.
Any additional time spent preparing for and providing training would be billed on an hourly basis as General Services (Retainer).
Adjustments
RWG proposes that commencing on July 1, 2025, and on each July 1 thereafter, the monthly and hourly rates charged above automatically shall be increased by a percentage amount equal to the percentage increase in the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim region (or other applicable region as agreed upon by RWG and the City) statistical area (“CPI”) for the twelve-month period ending on the immediately prior April 30. Should the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim CPI cease to be published in its entirety, or on a periodic basis ending on April 30, RWG and the City shall negotiate in good faith for a mutually acceptable alternative. Any other adjustments in the rates shall require prior approval of the City Council. However, our rates will not increase by more than five percent (5%) in any given year without City Council approval even if the CPI increase exceeds that amount.
Specialized Services
As part of the RWG’s Fee Schedule/Pricing, the services outside of the General Services Retainer shall be those defined as “General Services-Excess of 50 hour per month,” “Special Services-Other than Public Records Act Requests,” “Special Services-Public Records Act Requests,” “Litigation Services-Other than Pitchess Motions and Code Enforcement,” “Litigation Services-Pitchess Motions and Code Enforcement,” ”Third-Party Services,” “Paralegal Services,” and “Bond Counsel Services.”
With regard to any specialized services or matters that may need to be outsourced (i.e. not handled by the City Attorney law firm), generally the City’s insurance carrier or its joint powers insurance authority requires that tort litigation matters be handled by panel counsel. We work with many cities where tort litigation is handled by another law firm and we work with the City’s Risk Manager to oversee the handling of those matters to the extent requested. Other legal services that may be outsourced relate to investigations in employment matters as well as legal services related to police disciplinary hearings so as not to create a conflict situation for the City 18 - 75

Proposal for City Attorney Services
Attorney in its representation of the final decision maker, which is generally the City Manager.
Last, there may be a need to engage special counsel in nuanced tax matters or intellectual property matters.
In each circumstance we would discuss these matters with the City Manager and the City Council to ensure that the City’s interest are best represented. Roxanne has experience in retaining thirdparty attorneys to handle specialized or other matters and she is able to discuss the thoughtprocess behind this strategy more in-depth with the Ad Hoc Committee or the City Council. 18 - 76
City of South Pasadena
Proposal for City Attorney Services
Additional Information and Conflicts of Interest
We have completed a preliminary conflicts check of our public and private clients and, at this time, we are not aware of any actual legal or business conflicts that would preclude us from representing the City except in any matters related to Holy Family Church. If such a matter would arise, RWG would be required by the California Rules of Professional Conduct to seek a conflict waiver from Holy Family Church.
By way of background, in 1996 a former RWG attorney represented Holy Family Church in obtaining land use approvals from the City in conjunction with Holy Family’s “Vision Project.” Even though the work has long been completed and we no longer represent Holy Family Church, the City was an adverse party and RWG would be precluded from representing the City on matters related to Holy Family Church without the aforementioned waiver.
While not a conflict, RWG served as the General Counsel for the Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority (“Authority”) until July 2014. As you know, the City has statutory authority to appoint both a voting member and non-voting member to the Authority Board. Recently, we were engaged to advise the Authority on discrete CEQA issues that arise related to the Glendale to Montclair phase. We were also recently retained to handle a CEQA litigation matter for the Authority, but that matter has now been dismissed. We do not see our past or current work with the Authority as a conflict given that the work involves project extensions farther east of South Pasadena. Notwithstanding, we believed it was important to disclose this information to the City in the interest of transparency.
Last, by way of information, RWG was engaged in 2014 to represent the City in the litigation matter of Nansen, et al. v. City of South Pasadena, et al., which we did so successfully. 18 - 77

HIGHLIGHTED REPRESENTATIONS
▶ Huckey v. Temecula. Represented City of Temecula in a sidewalk trip and fall lawsuit based on the “trivial defect” defense, resulting in a landmark decision. Obtained a published opinion where the California Court of Appeal found that sidewalk slab rises of up to one and one-half inches are generally trivial defects as a matter of law, and the City was not liable for the plaintiff’s injuries.
Plaintiff alleged that he tripped on a sidewalk slab rise that measured approximately one and one-quarter inches.
He further alleged that, as a result of the fall, he sustained a brain injury, that he was unable to speak without slurring his speech, and that he was totally disabled. This case is significant because many lawyers and riskmanagement professionals believe that the trivial defect defense is only available if a sidewalk rise is threeCao 18 - 83

quarters of an inch or less. However, this decision expands the scope of the “trivial defect” defense, finding that rises of nearly double that height are trivial defects. ▶ Mercury Casualty Co. v. Pasadena. Represented City of Pasadena as trial and appellate counsel in an important, first of its kind, inverse condemnation case involving a hurricane-force windstorm in 2011 involving Mercury’s insureds’ residence that was extensively damaged when a 110 foot street tree fell on their house during a windstorm in which wind speeds reached over 100 m.p.h. Obtained a published opinion where the California Court of Appeal reversed the trial court’s decision, ordering the trial court to enter judgment in the city’s favor.
The decision rests upon the court’s single conclusion that the street tree that fell was not a work of public improvement because “there was no evidence it was planted as part of a planned project or design serving a public purpose or use.” Important for all cities, the court further concluded that “the City’s tree maintenance plan . . . does not subject the City to liability for an inverse condemnation claim because no evidence was presented that the plan was deficient.” This case is a significant case for cities, with far-reaching benefit for other public agencies that maintain extensive street tree inventories and urban forests.

Drawing from her background in urban planning, Diana Varat has advised dozens of public agencies in California on complex land use and housing matters. Diana has extensive experience preparing and reviewing general plan updates, specific plans, and zoning code amendments.

Diana frequently presents legislative updates to City staff, Planning Commissions, and City Councils to educate local officials on how best to comply with State law and simultaneously create vibrant communities. Diana has drafted numerous ordinances to implement housing element law on topics including: accessory dwelling units, inclusionary housing, density bonuses, emergency shelters, transitional and supportive housing, and reasonable accommodations procedures.
As an expert in ethics laws, Diana helps public officials analyze potential conflicts of interest under the Political Reform Act and Government Code Section 1090. With her guidance, public officials have sought and received favorable advice from the Fair Political Practices Commission, allowing them to participate in agency decisions without violating California’s conflict of interest laws.

Ginetta specializes in land use matters, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the California Coastal Act. Ginetta’s practice encompasses both advisory work and litigation, allowing her to handle matters seamlessly from the administrative level through trial and the appellate courts.
Ginetta is frequently asked to assist on controversial projects that appear headed towards litigation, including providing advice on CEQA compliance, local coastal programs, and land use entitlements. Ginetta’s combination of substantive knowledge, strategic thinking, and advocacy skills make her one of the state’s leading writ litigators, resulting in five published Court of Appeal decisions in eight years. These cases include important decisions addressing exemptions from CEQA for projects in transit priority areas (Covina Residents for Responsible Development v. City of Covina, et al. (2018) 21 Cal.App.5th 712), clarifying the level of administrative appeal review required for subsequent CEQA review (San Diegans for Open Government, et al. v. City of San Diego, et al. (2016) 6 Cal.App.5th 995), and establishing limitations on when attorneys’ fees may be awarded in CEQA litigation (Coalition for a Sustainable Future in Yucaipa v. City of Yucaipa, et al. (2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 513).
Complementing her land use practice, Ginetta has developed an expertise in legal issues affecting special districts. Ginetta currently serves as General Counsel to the Clovis Veterans Memorial District. Ginetta also has represented water agencies and community services districts in litigation, and often handles matters involving matters before local agency formation commissions (LAFCOs).

Robert Ceccon is one of RWG’s most experienced litigators. He has taken over 25 cases to judgment as lead counsel in trials in both state and federal courts, and has arbitrated dozens more. He has argued before the California Court of Appeal. His over three decades of experience have spanned the entire range of tort liability and damage claims against public agencies, including inverse condemnation, solid waste, police practices, employment claims, wrongful death claims, and dangerous conditions. He has achieved significant victories for his clients in complex multi-party cases where millions in compensatory or punitive damages were at stake. Bob serves as RWG’s Litigation Department Chair. He is co-author of California Government Tort Liability Practice, which California Courts of Appeal have cited hundreds of times.
Bob is a natural trial attorney. He attributes his success to some of the skills he learned growing up in Boston’s South End: thinking on his feet, anticipating problems quickly, and utilizing the art of persuasion. Bob combines people skills with the most current audiovisual courtroom techniques to paint a vivid picture that brings the facts of a case to life for a judge or jury.
Bob never shies away from a tough case. When the County of Ventura needed an experienced trial lawyer to defend it in the La Conchita landslide cases alleging 10 deaths and tens of millions of dollars in claimed damages, it called Bob. More recently, the City of Brea asked Bob to defend it in an excessive force case brought by the family of a criminal suspect fatally wounded in an officerinvolved shooting. Bob and his trial team prevailed using the same tools they apply in every case: thorough investigation, persuasive writing and tireless commitment to the client.

HIGHLIGHTED REPRESENTATIONS
▶ Fishback v. County of Ventura. Bob represented the County of Ventura as lead trial counsel in this significant environmental protection case involving illegal dumping of 8,000 truckloads of unpermitted construction debris into the canyons above Simi Valley, California. Bob obtained judgment in favor of the county ordering defendants to clean up all unpermitted fill material, and to pay $21.7 million in statutory penalties to the county ― the maximum statutory penalty under the Public Resources Code. This case represents the first California case of statutory penalties ever awarded for illegal disposal of solid waste. ▶ Alvis v. County of Ventura. Bob represented the County of Ventura as a lead trial counsel in defense against two lawsuits brought by over 80 plaintiffs in connection with the 2005 landslide in La Conchita, California that resulted in 10 deaths and destruction of 16 homes. Bob prevailed against damage claims based on theories of dangerous condition of public property, wrongful death, nuisance, and inverse condemnation resulting from alleged negligence in approving plans for a retaining wall intended to protect against such a landslide. The Court granted summary adjudication in favor of the county based on design immunity and substantial evidence that the county reasonably approved the design of the wall. The ruling, which resulted in dismissal of all personal injury claims, is the first appellate decision in 2 decades to address the approval element of design immunity, and clarified the type of defects that can be claimed a changed condition. ▶ Dunex, Inc. v. City of Oceanside. Bob represented the City of Oceanside as lead trial counsel in connection with an inverse condemnation lawsuit involving mobile home law in the context of a mobile home park conversion to residential ownership in the Coastal Zone, which is subject to regulation under the Coastal Act. The suit alleged that the city’s mobile home rent control ordinance resulted in a taking that caused at least $30 million in Ceccon
18 - 100

damages. The Court ruled in favor of the city, holding the plaintiff could not prove a claim because it had made a reasonable return on investment for the plaintiff.
▶ Collender v. City of Brea. Bob represented the City of Brea and its police officer as lead trial counsel in connection with an officer involved fatal shooting of an unarmed man. The decedent was alleged to have committed an armed robbery and was reaching towards his pocket when the officer attempted to arrest him.
The shooting was captured on video. Plaintiffs claimed that the city defendants used excessive force. The jury deliberated for less than a day and found in favor of defendants.
SAMPLING OF PUBLISHED APPELLATE VICTORIES
▶ Mercury Casualty Co. v. City of Pasadena, 14 Cal.App.5th 917 (2017), reh’g denied, review denied 11/15/17.
Inverse condemnation case involving damage from a tree that fell in a severe windstorm. The appellate court reversed judgment for Mercury after a trial, and ordered judgment to be entered for city, because the tree that fell was not a work of public improvement as “there was no evidence it was planted as part of a planned project or design serving a public purpose or use.”
▶ Alvis v. County of Ventura, 178 Cal.App.4th 536 (2009). In the La Conchita landslide litigation brought by over 80 plaintiffs, the appellate court affirmed the design immunity defense to plaintiffs’ claim for dangerous condition of public property, finding that the county’s discretionary approval of construction of a wall was sufficiently informed and the design was sufficiently reasonable for design immunity, and no changed condition defense to design immunity applied.

Paula represents city and public agency clients on eminent domain and real estate issues. Paula works closely with clients in project planning and the preacquisition phase of the eminent domain process to analyze any issues that may arise in the proposed acquisition. Paula’s experience is that taking an active role in the pre-acquisition stage, ensuring the clients follow the pre-acquisition procedures and facilitating meetings with clients, impacted owners, utility holders, and appraisers often results in successful negotiation, early resolution of acquisitions, and minimizes the legal issues in any filed eminent domain proceedings.
WORK FOR CLIENTS
Paula has represented the Cities of Anaheim, Brea, Buena Park, Indio, Manteca, Moorpark, Rancho Cucamonga, Seaside, Temecula and Yucaipa and the former Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency on acquisitions and real property-related issues. She is currently lead acquisition counsel for the Cities of Banning, Indio, Jurupa Valley, and Temecula.
Paula’s practice focuses on representing cities and public agencies on acquisition-related issues, including pre-acquisition issues, analysis of property interests required for a project, appraisal and negotiation issues, relocation assistance, preparation of purchase and sale agreements, rights of entry, and analysis of title and escrow documents. Paula handles eminent domain proceedings involving challenges to the public agency’s right to take, precondemnation damage claims, severance damage claims, claims for loss of business goodwill, and other valuation issues.
Paula has assisted clients on acquisition of property for public facilities, parks, parking lots, public works projects, road widening, extension projects and realignments, freeway interchange projects, storm drain easements, flood 18 - 115

control easements, water transmission lines, and sewer lines. Paula advises clients regarding applicable state and federal regulations on projects involving federal funds and projects with Caltrans oversight.
Paula is the Assistant Chair of the Eminent Domain Department at Richards, Watson & Gershon.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Paula joined Richards, Watson & Gershon in 1998.
Before pursuing a career in law, Paula served as a California State Senate Fellow in 1990-1991 where she worked on a broad range of public policy issues and projects. After the Senate Fellowship, Paula served as a volunteer coordinator for a state assembly campaign and later served as district staff for a Riverside County Supervisor where she assisted constituents on many issues involving the county. These experiences in public policy and politics shaped Paula’s desire to assist cities and public agencies on issues that impact local communities.

▶ French Valley Parkway/I-15 Improvements Phase II.
Assisted the City of Temecula to acquire certain fee interests, easement interests, and temporary construction easements on several parcels and helped the city to meet a critical right-of-way certification deadline. Worked with city staff on the pre-acquisition steps, prepared purchase and sale agreements, settlement agreements, and assisted the city with escrow. Prepared agenda reports, resolutions of necessity, and filed eminent domain proceedings for certain property interests required for Phase II. Assisted the city with negotiating agreements in connection with several of the subject property interests acquired for Phase II, including the property interests that were the subject of the filed eminent domain proceedings. ▶ Overland Drive Extension Project.
Assisted the City of Temecula on several fee acquisitions and partial acquisitions in connection with the city’s plans to extend Overland Drive from Commerce Center Drive to Enterprise Circle West, which impacted four businesses that operated on three of the larger parcels. Assisted the city on negotiations with the owners and business owners of these parcels regarding just compensation, loss of business goodwill, and relocation issues. The acquisitions were successfully resolved without the filing of any eminent domain proceedings. ▶ State Route 99/State Route 120 East (Yosemite Avenue).
Assisted the City of Manteca to acquire portions of approximately 25 parcels for the State Route 99/State Route 120 East (Yosemite Avenue) Interchange and Road Widening Project. This project required cooperation with Caltrans, certification of right-of-way and rights of entry. Worked with staff on appraisal review, offers and negotiations, agenda reports, resolutions of necessity, settlement agreements, and purchase and sale agreements. Most of the acquisitions were resolved prior to a resolution of necessity hearing. Represented the city in eight eminent domain proceedings that were resolved by negotiated settlements early on in the litigation.

Sample Litigation Victories
We have been very successful in defending the decisions of our municipal clients and below are examples of our litigation experience.
Fishback v. County of Ventura. RWG represented the County of Ventura as lead trial counsel in this significant environmental protection case involving illegal dumping of 8,000 truckloads of unpermitted construction debris into the canyons above Simi Valley, California. RWG obtained judgment in favor of the county ordering defendants to clean up all unpermitted fill material, and to pay $21.7 million in statutory penalƟes to the county ― the maximum statutory penalty under the Public Resources Code. This case represents the first California case of statutory penalties ever awarded for illegal disposal of solid waste. Dunex, Inc. v. City of Oceanside. RWG successfully represented the City of Oceanside in connection with an inverse condemnation lawsuit involving mobile home law in the context of a mobile home park conversion to residential ownership in the Coastal Zone, which is subject to regulation under the Coastal Act. The suit alleged that the City’s mobile home rent control ordinance resulted in a taking that caused at least $30 million in damages. The Court ruled in favor of the City, holding the plaintiff could not prove a claim because it had made a reasonable return on investment for the plaintiff.
Collender v. City of Brea. RWG successfully represented the City of Brea and one of its police officers in connection with an officer-involved fatal shooting of a man who later was found to have been unarmed. The decedent was alleged to have committed an armed robbery and was reaching towards his pocket when the officer attempted to arrest him. The shooting was captured on video. Plaintiffs claimed the City defendants used excessive force. The jury deliberated for less than a day and found in favor of defendants. Gang Injunction on behalf of City of Monrovia. RWG successfully obtained an injunction on behalf of the City of Monrovia against the activities of two rival criminal street gangs. The injunction prohibits members of the two gangs from publicly congregating together, and from engaging in specified activities within a three and one-half square mile "Safety Zone" the court designated in parts of Monrovia and adjacent unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County.
The Inland Oversight Committee v. City of Covina. RWG successfully defended the City’s use of mitigated negative declaration under CEQA.
Coalition for Preservation of the Arroyo v. City of Pasadena. RWG successful defended in trial court and on appeal, a CEQA challenge to an environmental impact report (EIR) for the use of the Rose Bowl as a temporary NFL location.

Exhibit 2 – Sample Litigation Victories
Published Appellate Victories
Mercury Casualty Co. v. City of Pasadena, 14 Cal.App.5th 917 (2017). This was an inverse condemnation case involving damage from a tree that fell in a severe windstorm. The appellate court reversed judgment for the insurer and ordered judgment to be entered for the City, because the tree that fell was not a work of public improvement as “there was no evidence it was planted as part of a planned project or design serving a public purpose or use.”
Alvis v. County of Ventura, 178 Cal.App.4th 536 (2009). In the La Conchita landslide litigation brought by over 80 plaintiffs, the appellate court affirmed the design immunity defense to plaintiffs’ claim for dangerous condition of public property, finding that the County’s discretionary approval of construction of a wall was sufficiently informed and the design was sufficiently reasonable for design immunity, and no changed condition defense to design immunity applied.
Covina Residents for Responsible Development v. City of Covina, et al., (2018) 21 Cal.App.5th 712. The appellate court held that a CEQA exemption which took effect three months before City approved a project applied and exempted consideration of project’s parking impacts. Gonzales v. City of Norwalk, (2017) 17 Cal.App.5th 1295. The appellate court ruled that municipalities may make technical changes to a utility users tax without the need for voter approval under Propositions 62 and 218.
San Diegans for Open Government, et al. v. City of San Diego, et al., (2016) 6 Cal.App.5th 995. The appellate court clarified the level of administrative appeal review required for subsequent CEQA review.
Coalition for a Sustainable Future in Yucaipa v. City of Yucaipa, et al., (2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 513. The appellate court established limitations on when attorneys’ fees may be awarded in CEQA litigation under Private Attorneys General Act “catalyst” theory. Eiskamp v. Pajaro Valley Water Management Agency, (2012) 203 Cal.App.4th 97. The appellate court dismissed a challenge to an ordinance that increased groundwater augmentation charges for well operators.
South Orange County Wastewater Authority v. City of Dana Point, (2011) 196 Cal.App.4th 1604. The appellate court held that a mitigated negative declaration prepared for a rezoning project was not required to study the impacts of an existing sewage treatment plant on the project.

This litigation log contains estimates of potential liability and litigation costs for each listed case which are based on the information known to the City at this time. Such estimates are subject to change as new information is discovered. In particular, please note that the column entitled “Attorney Estimated Liability” is based on the assumption that liability is found against the City. In many cases, however, liability is seriously disputed. If no liability on the City’s part is ultimately determined by a court, there would be no damages or other relief awarded. Also, please remember that the outcome of litigation cannot be guaranteed or precisely predicted. There always is a risk of an unexpected result.

Case Study
Goal: To contract for expanded brush clearance by using goats. City has a 100 foot brush clearance requirement for (i) an adjacent HOA community and (ii) an adjacent public open space preserve both of which are next to the City’s
boundaries. City will engage a contractor to extend that clearance to 200 feet at City’s cost.
Scope of Work: Contractor will provide goats to reduce
invasive weeds and other vegetation per the walk through and the map.
Problems?
Anatomy of a Contract
Case Study
Problems: The contractor did not conduct the extended brush clearance. Map did not depict the extra 100 feet of clearance Map was not clear in terms of the areas for clearance The purpose of the walk through was to let Contractor know where to clear brush but the areas were not documented in writing or otherwise
Contractor completed 25% of work but was paid 66% of
contract price when the goats stopped working and were
removed
Anatomy of a Contract
Case Study-Lessons Learned
New Contractor-Revised Scope of Work
Contractor will conduct brush clearance services using goats that graze on the vegetation and weeds in the service areas. Scope includes specifics regarding the two areas where goats will graze and has the associated acreage of each area listed. There is still a walk through but it is now associated with a map that clearly outlines the two areas and area is staked during walk-through. Compensation provides for second payment (50% of the contract price) only if 50% of the work is completed to the satisfaction of City Manager.

5 Anatomy of a Contract
Reasons for Indemnity and Insurance. The City can be held liable for damages caused by its contractors The person doing the work should be responsible for minimizing risk. The City should be able to rely on the contractor’s expertise to do the job safely and properly, and if the contractor doesn’t complete the work as promised, it should pay for the
consequences. Indemnity encourages proper performance on the part of the contractor. Risk is placed upon those best able to control the work. The City has a source for payment of claims against it. It helps to maintain the City’s budget for the services.

Chamber of Commerce BIT Funding Proposal for FY 2023-24 June 7, 2023
Staff has worked with the Chamber of Commerce Board on reviewing and improving upon this year’s funding proposal, which was discussed at length at the May 30, 2023 Budget Workshop before City Council. The City Council expressed continued support of the Chamber of Commerce, and agreed that while additional funding requests are understandable, the City Council would not support the funding request of $157,000. Staff was directed to work with the Chamber of Commerce on a revised proposal for the City Council’s consideration, and staff met with Laurie Wheeler, President Jason Mak, and Board member Kris Morrish, on June 1, 2023 to discuss and develop the revised proposal herein.
Additionally, Mayor Pro Tem Zneimer requested that the Chamber’s budget, expenditures and revenues of the Farmers’ Market, and that of the Eclectic Festival, be shared with the City Council for this discussion. The City of South Pasadena and the South Pasadena Chamber of Commerce hold a contractual agreement for the operation and management of the South Pasadena Farmers’ Market, and the request for financials for both events are within the specified terms of the BIT and the Farmers’ Market agreements. Those items will be made available on Monday, June 5, 2023, after the posting of this staff report and agenda.
Analysis
The Chamber of Commerce submitted three versions of the funding proposal to the City, and all were remitted to the City Council. The latest version of the proposal, and the one that was discussed at the City Council Budget Workshop, is provided as Attachment 1.
City staff and the Chamber have met and discussed the Chamber’s funding proposal, including:
• Increased costs associated with the deliverance of the annual Eclectic festival. The Chamber Board will also look into opportunities for new business modeling for a more financially viable event plan for the future.
• The City has historically financially supported the South Pasadena Tournament of Roses at an amount of $12,000 that can be removed from the BIT account, and paid directly.
• Line items such as staff costs for advertising and website improvements shall be addressed by the Chamber’s budget, as they are business decisions and not reliant on City funding; the BIT funds shall be maximized for deliverables to the business community.
As such, a revised funding request is as follows:
Art Crawls Events $30,000
Eclectic Music Festival $25,000 (no additional City staffing costs to be levied) SPTOR Pass Through $12,000
Advertising $8,000
Holiday Décor $10,000
Website Improvements $9,000
19 - 2
Chamber of Commerce BIT Funding Proposal for FY 2023-24 June 7, 2023
Business Center $8,000
Administration $40,500___
Total $128,500
The City Council recently approved of a new City Special Event and Co-Sponsorship program, which includes the policy decision to pass on staff overtime costs to event organizers. The Eclectic Music Event costs the City $15,000 in public safety costs. With this revised proposal, we reduce the funding ask for the Eclectic event by $15,000, but also suggest that the City Council approve not levying any staff costs specific to the 2024 Eclectic Music Event.
BIT funds are collected through a percentage of business license tax for businesses physically located in the parking and business district located in South Pasadena, as well as citywide filming permits. Home occupation, businesses located outside of South Pasadena that do business in South Pasadena, and businesses located outside of the tax area do not contribute to the BIT, and BIT revenues fluctuate based on business license and permit revenues. For FY 2023-24, the projected BIT revenue is estimated at $60,000-62,000, and the filming permit revenues are estimated at $32,000, for a total of $92,000-94,000 of revenue. Any funding levels over this amount would be dependent on General Fund reserves.
Alternatives (if applicable)
City Council may also consider the following alternatives to this recommendation, or any others they may discuss as a part of this report:
1. The Farmers’ Market agreement provides for a 7% gross revenues payment to the City, with a breakdown of 5% for Right-of-Way and 2% for Capital Improvement Projects, which are paid to the City quarterly. These funds have been paid timely, and we are in year one of five of a current agreement for the Farmers’ Market.
Reducing or eliminating the gross receipts element of the Farmers’ Market agreement can be an alternative way to increase funds to the Chamber of Commerce, while minimizing reliance of General Fund Reserves. Staff recommends a review of this option at the time of renewal.
2. Maintain status quo
Fiscal Impact
The FY 2022-23 Budget provided for a $105,500 funding level to the Chamber of Commerce (Attachment 2). The most recent funding proposal for FY 2023-24 was $157,000, and projected revenues for the BIT including filming permits is about $92,000.
City Council has verbalized the policy decision to continue financially supporting the Chamber of Commerce, and staff seeks direction on the level of funding. Any funds committed over the $92,000 projected revenue levels will rely upon General Fund Reserve balances.

Date: Friday, March 17, 2023, updated May 20, 2023
From: Laurie Wheeler
Subject: 2023-2024 Proposed BIT Request
The Business Improvement Tax (BIT) ordinance (Ordinance # 1738) was created in 1978 by City Council after the voters approved adding a tax to the annual business license fee. It was designed specifically to provide funding for the Chamber of Commerce, as the “one voice” for business in South Pasadena. The BIT has been, and continues to be, vital to the Chamber when it was implemented to bridge the traditional gap between funding and service expectations caused by the small business sector in a bedroom community.
Each year during the budget process for the upcoming fiscal year, the City Council designates an allocation from the BIT Fund to the Chamber, which is to be used to fulfill the requirements of the BIT Ordinance. The allocation amount is determined, in part, by the anticipated revenue that will be received from business licenses. The allocation for the 2022-2023 fiscal year is $105,500. Of that allocation, $12,000 is mandated as a pass-through to the South Pasadena Tournament of Roses.
For the 2023-2024 fiscal year, the Chamber is requesting an allocation of funds in the amount of $157,500. Of that, $12,000 will continue to be used to fund the SPTOR. We are asking for this amount to continue to provide the programming and events that benefit the businesses in South Pasadena, in particular, the Eclectic Music Festival & Arts Crawl.
The Chamber fulfills all of the requirements of the BIT ordinance, and delivers on the requirements of the annual contract. Those requirements include:
1. The coordination of the holiday decorations
2. Investment in the promotion of public events that take place on or in public places
3. Furnishing music in public place
4. Engagement in the general promotion of retail trade activities in the 91030 zip code.
The Chamber budget is allocated into three categories, the Business Improvement Tax (BIT), Chamber revenue and the weekly Farmers’ Market. The BIT fund budget, along with statements of projected revenues for the year is below. Once approved, the contract will take effect on July 1, 2023.
19 - 7
CHAMBER 2022-2023 BUDGET SNAPSHOT
BIT Chamber Farmers’ Market Total
Income $105,500 $102,216 $234,225 $441,941
Expense $105,500 $113,229 $220,350 $439,079
Fund Balance $ 0 ($ 11,013) $ 13,875 $ 2,862
To this end, the Chamber continues to operate an award-winning Farmers’ Market, and remits 7% of the revenue generated by the Farmers’ Market to the City (5% right-of-way and 2% CIP).
In addition, the Chamber serves as a business resource center, visitor information center, community art gallery and is a well-respected resource for connecting individuals and organizations in creating a strong community.
The BIT funds have been and will continue to be used to benefit the business community:
Arts Crawls – held quarterly to encourage shopping and dining in the South Pasadena business district.
Outreach and coordination with merchants to program special events Street closure (summer and fall)
Interactive art activities for all ages
Graphics and posters for promotion and marketing
Advertising – print, digital, social media
Communications – news releases, articles, maps
Business and Visitor Resource Center – The Chamber office serves as a resource for businesses and visitors.
Fields and responds to calls, visits and e-mail inquiries from the public as well as businesses
Serves as a community art gallery, curated by the South Pasadena Arts Council Offers literature, transit schedules, local newspaper (South Pasadena Review), and other guides, resources, news and information, as well as a display of member business cards, flyers and promotional materials.
Holiday Décor –
The Chamber owns a very modest collection of holiday décor, which is stored, installed and removed by an outside vendor each year.
Additionally, prior to the 2022 holiday season, the Chamber supplemented BIT funds to add lights to trees on Mission Street.
In 2023, the City and Chamber worked to replace those lights; and at the request of the Deputy City Manager, we will hold $5,000 of the 2022-23 BIT fund to augment the décor plan for 2023 season.
Website – A resource for businesses, residents and visitors Event information, maps, flyers, etc. are posted on the website, where anyone can access information, registration and details for these local events. 19 - 8
Funds will be used to increase the viewing capacity of the website. During the 2023 Eclectic, over 80,000 people attempted to access the event map, causing the site to ‘crash’.
Member businesses are listed by category and many are in a “Guide to South Pasadena”, which is arranged by category, with links to the business websites, photos, etc.
Learning Center – features resources, videos, information to assist businesses directly with their operational needs.
Community Calendar is a resource for the entire community as it lists events sponsored by organizations and businesses; serving multiple purposes and users SPTOR – Since the Chamber was first created, in 2004, the BIT contract always included a mandate to fund the SPTOR float efforts. The Chamber would be open to working with the city to facilitate continuing SPTOR support outside of BIT.
The Chamber anticipates that the funding from the BIT of the above categories will remain consistent, even though costs have increased and the Arts Crawls (in particular0 have grown in popularity, participation, and activity levels.
Eclectic Music Festival – As indicated on the document attached as well as in the estimated budget below, the BIT did not provide funding for the Eclectic in 2019, 2022 or 2023. The event was supported by fund raisers, local sponsor support, vendor and artisan contributions, revenue from beverage sales, as well as Chamber events and activities, including the Farmers’ Market. Although it is an extremely popular and successful event, the Eclectic has been operating on a ‘shoestring’ budget. To date, the planning, organizing, designing and coordinating work has been done by the Chamber staff (of 2 people) supplemented by volunteers, with a few paid contractors. The funding allocation requested would allow the Chamber to augment and stabilize the infrastructure, improve signage, wayfinding and marketing, as well as covering any city staffing costs as per the City’s newly adopted CoSponsorship Policy. The infrastructure component would include retaining the services of a professional event planning firm, who could also help secure additional corporate sponsorship support, as well as more equipment, such as barricades, security and logistics staff, and wayfinding.
Service/Item Estimated Cost
Professional Event Planning firm $20,000
Contracted staff (would include security, logistics) $ 4,000 Equipment (barricades, fencing, etc.) $ 4,000
City Staffing $15,000
One of the primary goals of this request is that the Chamber will be able to use this year’s allocation to develop a sustainable, ongoing source of funds to produce the Eclectic. This will be accomplished through corporate sponsorship. The event planning firm will assist with that endeavor by identifying, contacting, and working with potential sponsors. These sponsors will enable the Chamber to continue to produce this event for the businesses and community, 19 - 9
which will, in turn, allow the Chamber to use our funding to further the support, promotions and events throughout the year that help the small businesses in South Pasadena thrive.
Further, it is not expected that the requested funding increase will cover the costs of the Eclectic. Costs overall have increased significantly (sound/staging, labor, rental equipment, etc.). As the event grows, so does the need to program more and varied activities for the guests. New requirements for one-day vendors at the City Co-Sponsored and special events will require more coordination with each vendor to ensure compliance.
Advertising – The requested funds for advertising will be used to increase the promotion, outreach and support we can provide merchants.
Develop, refine and launch the Discover South Pas program in partnership with the City
Design and produce a branded “shop local” street banner and promotional campaign
Develop a holiday shopping campaign in collaboration with the local businesses Enhance and expand the marketing and advertising reach for various events, such as the Arts Crawl (print and digital ads, additional wayfinding and informational signage for the events)
The following is a summary break-down of the funding of the programs and projects funded with the BIT allocation. Each of these meets the criteria for which the funds can be used:
Business Improvement Tax Allocations
2022-2023 2023-2024
Events – Arts Crawls $30,000 28% $30,000 19%
Events – Eclectic Music Festival $40,000 25%
SPTOR $12,175 11% $12,000 8%
Advertising $ $ 8,000 5%
Holiday Decorations $10,000 10% $10,000 6%
Website $ 3,225 3% $ 9,000 6%
Business Resource Center (rent) $ 9,300 9% $ 8,000 5%
Administration $40,800 39% $40,500 26%
TOTAL $105,500 $157,500
Also attached to this report are some preliminary historical statistics about the Eclectic Music Festival. Also included is a budget comparison between the 2019 and 2023 Eclectic Music Festivals. The 2020 and 2021 events were cancelled due to Covid. The Eclectic returned in 2022, but on a smaller scale and footprint. The 2019 event provides a valid comparison, since 19 - 10
both events included a full street closure of Mission Street between Fair Oaks and Meridian.
The 2023 budget is still a draft, and is in the process of being finalized as the event wrap-up continues.
We respectfully request the renewal of our annual contract f 2023-2024 in the amount of $157,500. We will continue to provide services, resources and events that benefit the entire business community, and encourage visitors to Eat-Shop-Enjoy South Pasadena. Finally, the Chamber and this event have not been immune to rising labor and material costs across categories required to put on this event. We do anticipate that these costs will continue to increase as they are, and as we attract more visitors to South Pasadena, thus we are calling for the increased budget to make this event sustainable for years to come. Thank you for your consideration.
Respectfully submitted,
Laurie Wheeler
President/CEO

GANN Limit for Fiscal Year 2023-24
June 7, 2023
application of these growth factors to the City’s FY 2022-23 Appropriations Limit produces the City’s FY 2023-24 limit of $32,722,499.
For FY 2023-24, the appropriations subject to the limit are $1,031,657 below the legally mandated limit. At this time, it is recommended the City Council adopt the proposed resolution setting the City’s Appropriation Limit for FY 2023-24. The City will continue to closely monitor revenues during this fiscal year to determine if the actual revenues will exceed the Limit. Should the revenues from the proceeds of taxes exceed the legal Limit, alternatives for recalculations and/or a return of excess proceeds will need to be considered at that time.
Fiscal Impact
While there is no negative fiscal impact to the City, if revenues exceed the appropriations limit, the impact will be brought forward to council.

FY 2023-24 Adoption of Fiscal Year 2023-24 Annual Budget Report and Resolution June 7, 2023
The proposed draft budget is presented to the City Council members for review and feedback with all Department Directors, presented to the Finance Commission for review and feedback. At their June 1, 2023 meeting, the Finance Commission unanimously recommended this budget for City Council’s consideration.
A budget study session was held with the City Council and community on May 30, 2023, where staff solicited input and received direction on the proposed budget. The City Council is holding this discussion tonight to formally review the 2023-2024 Proposed Annual Budget and to consider approval of the GANN limit as well as the Master Fee Schedule.
Analysis
FY 2023-24 General Fund Revenue
General Fund revenues are projected to be at $39,563,231.
The chart below summarizes the General Fund Operating revenues from FY 2019/20 to the Adopted FY 2022/23. The Budgeted FY 2022-2023 Revenues were estimated to be $42,849,230, and the estimate for June 30, 2023 is $36,588,626. The difference in estimated revenues for FY 2022-2023 is due to recording the State and Local Fiscal Recover Funds (SLRF) of $6,059,235 from the General Fund into its own fund, but the City is anticipating an increase to $39,563,231 for FY 2023-2024 due to increases of $1,162,715 in Property Taxes, $166,712 in Sales Taxes, $289,359 in Utility Users Taxes, $54,477 in Franchise Fees, $450,906 in Uses of Money and Property, $239,866 in Fire Interagency Support, $517,257 in Current Services and $93,438 of other revenues.

$2,210,847 and reserve adjustments of $1,834,998 leave a projected end balance for June 30, 2023 of $19,462,991.

General Fund Revenues
A majority of General Fund Revenues continue to come from Property and Sales Tax:
• $20,075,533 (51%) comes from property taxes and special taxes • $6,478,033 (16%) from sales tax
• $4,352,462 (11%) from utility users tax
• $4,141,520 (11%) from current city services
• Remainder 11% from use of money & property, and other revenue sources General Fund Expenditures
The goal for the Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget season was to build a status-quo budget based on a zero-based budget, which allowed each Department to go through the exercise of starting from zero to build their respective budgets from the ground up, and to justify every line item. This exercise led to the leaning out of the budget to provide for the funding to make some priority and necessary staffing growth. Employee Wages and Benefits, and City Operations and Maintenance make up more 97% of Expenditures.
Increases are due to Employee Labor negotiations and salary adjustments to bring staff that were significantly behind (10-30%) up to more comparative salaries. In this budget we also ask for funding for a complete Comprehensive Classification and Compensation Study to further delve into our staff positions, pay and wages.
As signified in the Midyear Budget report to City Council and Finance Commission, the City continues to feel the impact of inflation, with rising costs to doing business, purchasing goods and materials, across the board.
• $27,009,805 (68%) wages & benefits
• $12,182,249 (31%) operations & maintenance
• $258,000 (1%) capital projects

About South Pasadena
The City of South Pasadena is located approximately six miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles, between the cities of Pasadena, San Marino, Los Angeles and Alhambra. It has a population of 26,314. Founded in 1874 by the Indiana Colony, the City was incorporated as a General Law city of the State of California on March 2, 1888. South Pasadena is known for its tree-lined streets, historic California Craftsman-style homes, unique small businesses and its outstanding public schools. This small-town atmosphere makes South Pasadena one of California's most desirable locations. South Pasadena has quality education, a strong religious community, an extensive network of parks and a rich architectural heritage. Dynamic civic organizations, a population of ethnic and cultural diversity, and a vital seniors' group further enrich our small-town quality of life. Small, proud and independent, the City of South Pasadena has battled for a hundred years to preserve its status as a distinct—and distinctive—community.
South Pasadena possesses a full-service City government that provides high-quality services in general administration, police, fire, library, public works, community development, and redevelopment projects.
City History
In early 1874, the area that is now South Pasadena was a part of the San Gabriel-Orange Grove Association. In 1875, the stockholders of the association voted to name their town Pasadena and just three years later, residents living in the southern portion of Pasadena considered themselves South Pasadenans.
In February of 1888, in order to control their own territory, South Pasadenans voted eighty-five to twenty-five for incorporation. A board of trustees was elected and Ammon B. Cobb was appointed as the first marshal, with Marshal B. Selmen as his deputy.
On March 2, 1888, South Pasadena officially incorporated with a population of slightly over 500. 21 - 19
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA ABOUT
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 7
The City’s boundaries established in 1889 are essentially the same today. South Pasadena consists of 3.44 square miles of prime residential property. In 1876, unimproved land with water was selling from $75 to $150 an acre. Today a vacant lot in South Pasadena can be sold for more than $200,000.
Few cities in California are better recognized for the quality of its small-town atmosphere and rich legacy of intact late 19th and early 20th century neighborhoods and residences. South Pasadena also has a strong claim to having the oldest and most historic sites in the San Gabriel Valley. For many centuries, its adjacency to a natural fording place along the Arroyo Seco had served as a gateway to travel and commerce for aboriginal peoples here and along the coast. It was here that Hahamognas greeted Portola and the missionaries who later established the San Gabriel Mission a few miles to the west.
The initial buildings on the Rancho San Pascual, which subsequently gave birth to the Cities of Pasadena, South Pasadena and Altadena, were built here. The first of these adobe structures became headquarters for General Flores and his staff in 1847 where they agreed to surrender to American forces, ending Mexican Colonial rule in California.
In 1888, South Pasadena incorporated the southern portion of the Indiana Colony and land south and eastward to the Los Angeles border, becoming the sixth municipality in Los Angeles County. With the establishment of the Raymond Hotel and the Cawston Ostrich Farm, the small community was able to attract tourists and increasingly large waves of new residents to the Pasadena area in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. With completion of the Pacific Electric Short Line, putting the entire city within easy walking distance of the “red car” stations, South Pasadena also became one of the first suburbs of Los Angeles. It is now certainly one of the best-preserved cities, maintaining a small-town quality and humanity in the scale of its buildings, its residential streetscapes and historic commercial core. 21 - 20

City Manager’s Budget Message Fiscal Year 2023-24
June 7, 2023
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
It is my pleasure to present to you the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-2024 Annual Budget, which we embarked on under the theme of continued Transparency and Collaboration. As we close out this year, we reflect on the progress and improvements made during Fiscal Year 2022-23 across all our City departments, in professionalizing the agency and delivering it to new standards, and in the level of service we provide our community.
This year, we continued our efforts in completing organizational assessments, including the Finance and Community Services departments, and embarking on the Police assessment.
These assessments provide the agency an opportunity to review staffing and resources, work flows and outputs, research and incorporate industry best practices, review and improve upon policy, and deliver each department, and the agency, to the next level. The Library has also completed a Strategic Plan and held a Joint study session with the City Council and Library Board of Trustees to discuss the future of the site. On the topic of site assessments, we have completed a facility assessment of the Library site, and will be beginning the City Hall site assessment shortly.
Hand in hand with the assessments, the City has remained committed to hiring the best and the brightest in our industry, and have facilitated over 50 recruitments and hirings in the last year, and also experienced the transitioning of a number of staff during this unprecedented recruiting season. New hires including the hiring of a new Deputy Finance Director/Controller for operational oversight, and a Senior Management Analyst in creating the City’s Housing Division, in late 2022. This budget resources our departments to transition from temporary to permanent staffing, and allows us to focus the year ahead. GWD: Get Work Done.
The City continues implementing the 2021-2026 Strategic Plan, which highlights and resources the priorities of the City Council and community. With the City’s Strategic Plan over 50% completed, and the onboarding of a new Councilwoman and City Treasurer in early 2023, staff will facilitate a Strategic Plan revisit, including community engagement and input, in Fall 2023, to revisit our priorities and ensure we are on track to meet the needs of the community.
We have engaged with our community more than before, and continue that commitment. Our launch of the City’s mobile app, SouthPas Mobile, provided resources, information and customer requests at community member fingertips, and also provided another engagement tool with our constituents. We have released a Request for Proposal for a new City website, anticipated to launch end of year, which will be a user-friendly, welcoming resource to community members, visitors and staff. Community engagements and surveys gleaned information on communications preferences, input on the proposed budget, the housing element, and more. In working with the City Council, we have better utilized the tremendous brain power and servitude of our City commissions in providing actionable recommendations for consideration in policymaking, as well as come together on a number of study sessions focused on streets, housing, and the future of the library site, for brainstorming and priority setting efforts.

CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET MESSAGE
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 10
This year saw the return of our City’s events and programming, including the Commissioner Congress as well as a City Hall Open House event to introduce the new staff to the community and welcome everyone back post-COVID. In this budget we have included a wish list of items we have heard back on from the City Council and the community, with the first phase costs listed below:
Vision 2050- $100,000
Library Master Plan- $150,000
Multi-Cultural City Celebration- $50,000
As we close out our pandemic years, we look to the future and to transitioning to the new normal, which includes a further commitment to resident and business support, resources and service. Our Economic Development Team continues building upon their programming and service to the City, working to put our business community on the map, in championing and strengthening the local economy, and in welcoming new investment to the community. Another significant transition includes the award of a new contract for City Attorney Services. The City Council directed staff to work with a Council sub-committee in developing and released a Request for Proposal for City Attorney Services, and staff from the City Manager’s Office worked diligently on the process— City Council will consider the award of contract in June 2023.
We have established a Housing Division in the Community Development Department, and they have hit the ground running on key priorities and programs, including the Housing Element and various programs, the Caltrans surplus properties and the policy decisions that City Council will soon begin to make on the opportunity to exercise first right of refusal on those properties, research on the no-fault eviction moratorium as it related to our 52% of renter residents. The budget proposes almost $1M in Housing Element implementation and programmatic efforts, including:
Tenant protection- $400,000
Racially Restrictive Covenants- $100,000
Cultural Heritage Ordinance Update- $200,000
Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (IHO) In-Lieu Fee Study- $23,000 Ballot Measure on Height Limit Study- $100,000
General Plan/ Downtown Specific Plan consultant (Rangwalla)- $150,000 We have also furthered our commitment to the social services, veterans, elder adults and various partner agencies. While not a direct service provider, the City recognizes that a number of service providers touch and serve our community, and we have identified the opportunity to establish a Social Services Task Force, which leverages resources available to our community, identify gaps in service to pursue further partnerships. The team has launched a Social Services Resource Guide and a Elder Adults Resource Guide, and will continue looking for opportunities here.
The year ahead holds many priorities and goals: implement the City Hall Electrification Project, which includes infrastructure investments at City Hall and the transition of the Police fleet vehicles to electric, street repaving and infrastructure improvements, the programmatic efforts in our Housing Element and transitioning to compliance and implementation including the finalizing of the General Plan and Downtown Specific Plan, the implementation of the Slow Streets Program. Staff will actively look for opportunities to solicit grant funding for City programming. 21 - 24
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET MESSAGE
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 11
We look forward to the progress we will make with our City Council, Commissions and Boards, community members and staff.
Finances
Specifically, on the City’s financials, we have made great strides. The City has adopted citywide policies and protocols, delivered a timely Mid-Year Budget Report to Council, has made notable improvements on the City audit, and is delivering a timely budget and 5-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP). We delivered on our commitment for transparency and information sharing, having delivered quarterly budget updates that have now shifted to monthly updates, delivering monthly operational status updates during a height of transition, and intentionally sharing pertinent information with the Finance Commission along with the City Council. We continue the commitment to share information and bring the community along with our efforts as good stewards of our finances.
The agency is financially healthy, and great efforts are being made to implement best practices, policies and protocols to best serve our agency and community. The City received $6.1 million in State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds for the fiscal year 2022-2023. City Council prioritized partial use of the funds toward significant resource replacements and citywide technological advances to support improved service and oversight, as well as improving the user experience.
For the FY 2023-2024 Budget, the Finance Department embarked on establishing a zero-base budget, and worked with all City Departments in utilizing this process to provide a collaborative product that provides a clean start to the budget document in justifying all appropriations. The FY 2023-2024 proposed Budget includes a minimal increase in expenditures verses the revenue received, and also addresses two large issues that staff became aware of in March 2023: an outstanding invoice of $1.6M due to CJPIA, and about a $1M structural issue in Workers Compensation Insurance Fund. These items have been accounted for and addressed in this budget, and staff will prioritize a review and improvements of the City’s insurance procedures, carriers and process in the year ahead.
Financial Policies and Procedures
On September 7, 2022, the City Council adopted the 2022 Finance Policies and Procedures in order to, among other things, establish rules and regulations to establish efficient procedures for the purchase of supplies, services and equipment at the lowest possible cost commensurate with quality needed, to exercise positive financial control over purchases, to clearly define authority for the purchases function, and to assure the quality of purchases. On December 7, 2022, City Council adopted the Second Reading and Adoption of an ordinance of the City of South Pasadena, California, Amending Section 2.99-29 of Article XI Relating to "Purchasing Procedures", and Sections 2.99-35 and 2.99-37 of Article XIII "Awarding Public Works Contracts" of Chapter 2 of the South Pasadena Municipal Code.
On March 15, 2023, the Finance Department presented the Fiscal Year 2022-23 City Council Budget Policies at the Joint meeting of the City Council with Finance Commission, for review and direction. After deliberation, the City Council voted on the document with some edits to be made in working with the Finance Commission, and that document was approved at the May 16, 2023 Finance Commission and May 17, 2023 City Council meetings, respectively. The Finance Department will continue working with the Finance Commission on establishing a biannual review of the City Council’s adherence to these policies, at the mid-year mark and at the end of each fiscal year. Together, these documents and efforts will continue to contribute to our 21 - 25
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET MESSAGE
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 12
commitment of good financial stewardship of our agency and community, coupled with working on a five-year projection of forecasting into the new fiscal year.
Budget Input
The FY 2023-24 Budget document includes the detailed Proposed Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget document, Capital Improvement Plan and Miscellaneous Fee Schedule. Staff conducted Community input opportunities by hosting an online survey for Budget input, which gleaned 165 comments. The two major items determined from the online survey were continued Public Safety support, and improvements to infrastructure. The City also hosted two in person and virtual Community Budget Forums on May 18, 2023, and a review of the final proposed document to Finance Commission on June 1, 2023.
The budget process has focused on a zero-based budget that included a major clean up of the budget document as well as the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) five-year document. The process was collaborative across all City departments, and resources requested are to provide for workload catch up as well as adding capacity to meet the needs of the years ahead.
Thanks to the City Council, our Finance Commission, and all City Departments and staff for their diligence, hard work and efforts in producing this guiding document. I appreciate the continued support of the South Pasadena residents of the City and our efforts in serving our community. We look forward to a positive and fruitful 2023-24 fiscal year. 21 - 26

General Fund Operating Revenue History
The chart below summarizes the General Fund Operating revenues from FY 2019/20 to the Adopted FY 2022/23. The Budgeted FY 2022-2023 Revenues were estimated to be $42,849,230, and the estimate for June 30, 2023 is $36,588,626. The difference in estimated revenues for FY 2022-2023 is due to recording the State and Local Fiscal Recover Funds (SLRF) of $6,059,235 from the General Fund into its own fund, but the City is anticipating an increase to $39,563,231 for FY 2023-2024 due to increases of $1,162,715 in Property Taxes, $166,712 in Sales Taxes, $289,359 in Utility Users Taxes, $54,477 in Franchise Fees, $450,906 in Uses of Money and Property, $239,866 in Fire Interagency Support, $517,257 in Current Services and $93,438 of other revenues.
General Fund FY 2022-2023 Projected Summary
The General Fund Balance starting July 1, 2022 was $18,931,422. Revenues are $36,588,626 and expenditures are expected to total $35,681,208. Transfers out of $2,210,847 and reserve adjustments of $1,834,998 leave a projected end balance for June 30, 2023 of $19,462,991.
The increase of expenditures and transfers out is due to unanticipated vendor payments for prior years services, additional positions, higher utility costs and incurring an unanticipated CJPIA invoice related prior years general liability and worker’s compensation claims of $1,654,761.

General Fund FY 2023-2024 Projected Reserves
The projected General Fund Reserves end balance for June 30, 2024 totals $3,964,943, with deletions totaling $500,000 from the Storm Water Reserve as well as the re-programming of the Mental Health Reserve toward staffing costs, in consideration of the significant funding that has been allocated by Senator Portantino and Congresswoman Chu toward the San Gabriel Valley Care (SGV CARE), previously known as the Mental Health Mobile Co-Response Team.
General Fund Revenues
A majority of General Fund Revenues continue to come from Property and Sales Tax:
$20,075,533 (51%) comes from property taxes and special taxes $6,478,033 (16%) from sales tax
$4,352,462 (11%) from utility users tax
$4,141,520 (11%) from current city services
Remainder 11% from use of money & property, and other revenue sources General Fund Expenditures
The goal for the Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget season was to build a status-quo budget based on a zero-based budget, which allowed each Department to go through the exercise of starting from zero to build their respective budgets from the ground up, and to justify every line item.
This exercise led to the leaning out of the budget to provide for the funding to make some priority and necessary staffing growth. Employee Wages and Benefits, and City Operations and Maintenance make up more 97% of Expenditures. Increases are due to Employee Labor negotiations and salary adjustments to bring staff that were significantly behind (10-30%) up to more comparative salaries. In this budget we also ask for funding for a complete Comprehensive Classification and Compensation Study to further delve into our staff positions, pay and wages.
As signified in the Midyear Budget report to City Council and Finance Commission, the City continues to feel the impact of inflation, with rising costs to doing business, purchasing goods and materials, across the board.

CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET POLICY
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 18
FY 2023/2024 Budget Policies Draft
PURPOSE STATEMENT
To enhance fiscal transparency and maintain and improve fiscal sustainability, the City of South Pasadena annually adopts fiscal policies to establish a framework to ensure a balanced budget, maintain healthy reserves, appropriately fund the City’s infrastructure needs, establish fees and charges, and ensure compliance with City Council directives. This policy is adopted annually as part of the Budget adoption process and may be revised by City Council action.
1. ANNUAL BUDGET
The City adopts an annual budget. The City’s fiscal year starts on July 1st and concludes on June 30th. The annual budget for the new fiscal year will be adopted before June 30th.
The following are key elements of the City’s budget and budget process:
● Budgetary appropriations are made by the City Council, through formal budget adoption. ● The City Manager submits the Proposed Budget to the City Council no later than the final City Council meeting in May.
● The budget is adopted by the City Council before June 30th, following a public meeting where constituents are given an opportunity to comment on the Proposed Budget. ● Prior to consideration by the City Council, the Proposed Budget will be reviewed by the Finance Commission.
2. BALANCED BUDGET
The City strives to maintain a balanced operating budget for all governmental funds (all funds except the enterprise funds), with total on-going revenues equal to or greater than total on-going expenditure, so that at year end all these funds have a positive fund balance and the General Fund balance is maintained.
● The budget is balanced at the individual fund level. The estimated revenue sources must be sufficient to cover proposed uses.
● Ongoing operations are funded by recurring revenues.
● City policies on reserve requirements for specific funds are adhered to in the budget. ● If shortfalls are projected after the budget adoption, during quarterly financial reviews, the City Manager will present a plan to address such shortfalls with sustainable measures in order to achieve a balanced budget by fiscal year-end. ● Non-recurring revenues or one-time funding may be used to balance the budget during economic downturns, or as a result of unforeseen events.
3. APPROPRIATIONS AND BUDGETARY CONTROL
The City Council holds public hearings and adopts the City’s annual budget and may modify appropriations with majority approval. During the fiscal year, any budget adjustments (increases in appropriations at the fund level) that cannot wait for the MidYear review or that exceed the City Manager’s budget authority described below, must be submitted by the City’s departments for City Council review and approval. The review and approval may occur at any City Council meeting, at the request of staff or the City Council. The City Council approves any revisions that increase the total budgeted expenditures or revenues at the fund level, and any changes to permanent and full-time positions.
21 - 33
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET POLICY
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 19
The legal level of expenditures is controlled at the fund level, and appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year. Re-appropriation by the City Council only occurs for multi-year infrastructure and capital projects.
Department Heads may, without Council approval, amend individual line items within any fund in the maintenance and operations portions of the budget without increasing total appropriations for that division. The City Manager may, without Council approval, amend individual line items within any fund, and between divisions and programs, in the personnel costs, maintenance and operations, capital outlay and capital projects portions of the budget without increasing total appropriations for that fund.
4. GENERAL FUND RESERVES
General Fund Reserves are described as:
● Unassigned Fund Balance - These reserves are in spendable form and may become either restricted, committed, or assigned. The City strives to attain a General Fund undesignated fund balance equal to a minimum 30% of General Fund revenues at year end.
● Assigned Fund Balance – These reserves are set aside or earmarked for particular purposes, and the authority to designate these reserves can be delegated, and may take less formal action to limit how the reserves are used.
● Restricted Fund Balance – These reserves are subject to restrictions that are legally enforceable by outside parties, such as bondholders.
● Committed Fund Balance – These reserves are designated by the City Council, and are designated for specific purposes, through formal action. Committed balances can be modified by the City Council taking formal action.
Committed (Designated) Reserves shall be reviewed and designated annually by the City Council prior to Budget adoption. Upon designation of a reserve for a specific purpose, the Council will ensure the following:
● The purpose of the reserve will be specified at the time of designation. ● The City Council will also identify whether the designation is a one-time designation or whether an amount specified by the City Council will be added to the designated reserve on an annual basis.
● Nothing limits the City Council’s authority to un-designate, or re-designate any General Fund Designated Reserve for another governmental purpose, pursuant to formal City Council action.
5. ENTERPRISE FUND
The City requires the water, sewer, and golf course enterprise funds be self-supporting.
The City recognizes that enterprise funds function with accounting practices that are different from those used by governmental funds. Therefore, for enterprise funds, the City will strive to maintain operating budgets that produce annual net revenues that meet or exceed the compliance requirements of debt coverage rations generally.
The sewer fund was recognized as an enterprise fund starting in FY 2009/10, with the requirement of self-supporting funding. Water and sewer rate increases will assure that revenues exceed operating expenditures, including debt service. Budgeted water capital projects will be paid from a $37.8 million 2016 Water Bond issuance. Bond debt service will be 21 - 34
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET POLICY
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 20
paid out of water revenues. Sewer revenues along with a revolving loan from the State will pay for sewer capital improvements.
The Water Fund will maintain a reserve equal to 30% of revenues. The Sewer fund will maintain a reserve equal to 30% of revenues.
6. INFRASTRUCTURE
The City maintains a long-range fiscal perspective through the use of a Capital Improvement Program to maintain the quality of City infrastructure, including streets, sidewalks, sewers, drains, lighting, buildings, parks, and trees. The City Council adopts capital projects budgets and may modify appropriations with majority approval. All changes in appropriations at the fund level during the year must be submitted to the City Council for approval.
Beginning in FY 2013/14, the City’s goal has been to commit a minimum of $2,000,000 per year towards street improvements. This amount has fluctuated based upon available resources
7. ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING STANDARDS
The City will comply with all requirements of generally accepted accounting principles, and will publish an Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles, prepared in coordination with our independent auditors, no later than the first quarter of each calendar year. The ACFR, along with the Auditor’s report on internal controls and compliance, will be presented to the City Council at a public meeting, after first being presented to the Finance Commission. The City shall endeavor to achieve audits with minimal auditor findings in the form of significant deficiencies. The City shall swiftly and thoroughly respond, to auditor findings of material weakness.
8. MIDYEAR AND INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORTING
The City will publish a midyear budget update in March of each year. The midyear budget update shall present estimated outcomes and the implications for the budget year. The report shall give attention to the financial issues and policy matters anticipated to have the most significant short and long-term financial planning importance to the City Council. Pursuant to the content of the midyear report, the City Council shall provide specific and general direction to staff for short- and long-term budgetary planning.
To comply with the policy, the City Manager will ensure the following:
● The midyear budget update will be presented to the City Council in February or March of each year.
● At the midyear budget update, staff will present to the City Council any necessary adjustments to the budget. The adjustments are based on additional funding, or major changes in revenues or expenditures, or previously approved budget adjustments. ● Monthly budget updates will be provided to the City Council starting in the Spring of 2023.
9. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City will identify and quantify all areas of financial and operating risk, and prepare contingencies for those risks, including legal liabilities, infrastructure maintenance, 21 - 35
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET POLICY
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 21
emergency response, and contract and employee obligations. The City will work with the City’s insurance providers to seek full coverage of actuarially projected needs.
Liability and Workers Compensation liability is reported in accordance with GASB 10, and further explained below.
● The City manages risk through a combination of purchased insurance and selfinsurance. ● The City self-insured workers’ compensation claims with a self-insured retention of $125,000 and general/auto liability claims, with a self-insured retention of $100,000 per covered claim. Excess workers’ compensation and general/auto liability insurance coverage shall be purchased.
● An annual actuarial study shall be conducted to provide an estimate of the self-insured liability to be recorded by the City in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 10. This statement requires the City to accrue a liability on its financial statements for a reasonable estimate of the cost of claims and expenses associated with all reported and unreported claims.
● The City’s goal is to maintain reserves to fund its outstanding self-insured liabilities at the minimum level of 70 percent.
● The City shall maintain a Self-Insurance Fund to both fund the liability reserve and workers compensation, and recover all associated risk management costs, including claim payments, insurance premiums and any deductibles, and claim administration (internal and external). The fund’s revenues shall be generated through assessments to City funds based on their claim experience and outstanding liabilities. These departmental assessments shall be evaluated annually and adjusted as needed. ● Staff shall report to the Finance Commission and City Council at least annually on the claims processed, amounts paid, and steps taken to manage and reduce the City’s risk and liability.
10. DEBT AND INVESTMENTS
The City will consider the use of debt for long-term capital assets when the cost of debt is lower than the City’s investment return, and when operating revenues are available to pay the debt. We will maximize the investment return on City Cash balances within the higher concerns of safety and liquidity. An investment policy will be submitted annually to the City Council for review and adoption in September or October of each year. The City shall at all times maintain compliance with the California Government Code with respect to the content and function of its Investment Policy.
Annually, the Investment Policy is reviewed by the City’s Finance Commission, prior to being approved by the City Council. Additionally, the City Treasurer shall provide monthly reports to the City Council which shall include all reportable elements specified in the City’s Investment Policy.
11. CONTROL OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
All financial assets will be under the direct authority of the City Treasurer and Finance Director. Regarding Capital Assets, the City will capitalize assets and equipment with individual minimum value of $5,000 for non-infrastructure assets, and $25,000 for infrastructure assets.
12. SCHEDULE OF FEES FOR SERVICES
21 - 36
CITY OF SOUTH PASADENA BUDGET POLICY
PROPOSED BUDGET | FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 22
The City will publish, and the Finance Department will update, the schedule of fees for services as a component of the annual budget. The Fee Schedule will be reviewed by the Finance Commission prior to implementation each July 1st. .
13. LONG-TERM LIABILITIES
The City shall evaluate long-term liabilities (debt borrowing, compensated absences, claims and judgements, pensions, post-employment benefits (OPEB), on a case by case basis. The City will work with the California Public Employee Retirement System and the City’s insurance providers to seek full coverage of actuarially projected needs.
Funding is budgeted on a pay-as-you-go basis for leave liabilities, and retiree health insurance costs. In accordance with GASB 45, a third-party actuarial valuation of the City’s liability for annual retiree medical costs has been completed every two years since FY 2008/09.
14. GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
The City will annually adopt a Resolution establishing the City’s appropriation limit (the Gann Limit) calculated in accordance with Article x111-B of the constitution of the State of California Government code and any other voter approved amendments or state legislation that affects the City’s appropriations limit. The Gann Limit will be adopted by Resolution.
The City is restricted to an amount of annual appropriations from proceeds of taxes, and if proceeds of taxes exceed allowed appropriations, the excess must either be refunded to the State Controller or returned to the taxpayers through revised tax rates or revised fee schedules.
Alternatively, an excess of one year, may by offset against a deficit in the following year. 21 - 37

FY 2023 Key Performance Indicators Update
During the development of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 budget, the Management Services Department committed to working towards Key Performance Indicators (KPI). As reflected in the FY 23 accomplishments above, staff has done a commendable job at working towards meeting those KPIs.
City Clerk’s Office
In FY 23, the City Clerk’s Office made significant strides in enhancing customer service through innovation. The Division also experienced significant turnover and staffing challenges, which were addressed with the assistance of temporary staffing services. The turnover in staffing did cause delays in implementing projects, but it also allowed staff to analyze the path forward and create a plan. The City Clerk’s Office is working closely with the City Manager’s Office in procuring services for a new user-friendly website. A Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued by the CMO, and this project is expected to be completed in the next fiscal year. Along with the joint effort of procuring a new website, the Division began the selection process for the procurement of an agenda management program to streamline the agenda process and will be implementing the selected program in FY 2024. Core operations of the City Clerk Division, such as agenda processing, clerking city council meetings, and assisting commissions, continued without interruption this fiscal year. The Division worked closely with all commissions and the City Manager’s Office to implement a Commissioner’s/ Elected Official’s Handbook to welcome and provide incoming elected officials with the tools and background information for their roles.
The City Clerk’s Office hosted AB1234 training for all elected officials and staff liaisons. The second annual Commissioners’ Congress was also held this fiscal year. The Division successfully coordinated with Los Angeles County to hold the General Municipal Election in November 2022 and then held a reorganization ceremony for the outgoing and incoming elected officials. This fiscal year, the Division is in the process of completing the backlog of minutes for city council meetings, which consisted of over years’ worth of meetings. To date, for FY 23, the City has received an unprecedented amount of public records requests. Since July 1, 2022, the city has received 469 requests, with less than 3 months remaining in FY 23. All but seven of those requests have been responded to and closed out.
Human Resources and Risk Management
In FY 23, the Human Resources and Risk Management Division experienced significant turnover and staffing challenges but has continued strong momentum in improving the organizational culture and building a strong employer brand to attract and retain top-caliber candidates. This fiscal year, the Human Resources Division made investments in employee development by purchasing a new learning management system (LMS) through NEOGOV. The implementation is well underway and is expected to be completed by the end of FY 23.
Additionally, in efforts to enhance the employee experience, Human Resources will be revamping the employee onboarding process through the implementation of NEOGOV Onboard. The Human Resources Division kicked off the first Health and Wellness Fair and, through the Employee Engagement Team (E.E.T), had a successful summer BBQ, Halloween celebration, and holiday luncheon that also served as an opportunity to recognize staff and honor years of service to the City. The Division has proactively offered several training opportunities citywide through our partnership with LCW. On the Risk Management side, the Division is undergoing an internal review of our processes and procedures and working with our third-party administrators (TPAs) to improve communication flow and assess ways to increase efficiency in the claims process. On the Risk Management side, the Division worked closely with 21 - 117

our Police Department partners to roll out Active Shooter training citywide Division has compiled a full accounting of our claim’s history for the last two years and has begun efforts to identify high-risk areas for mitigation. For the FY 24 budget development process, HR developed Budget Instructions and forms for departments to request changes to their personnel structure and positions formally and have worked closely with the Finance Department during budget development.
Innovation and Technology (IT)
In FY 23, the Management Services Department (MSD) made great strides in internally assessing our Information Technology infrastructure and needs. In FY 23, the department invested significant funds in updating computers and workstations citywide and will continue this effort into FY 24. In collaboration with our managed service provider, the City’s Technology Master Plan was updated to reflect better the needs of the City, and important new tools were implemented to improve transparency and understanding of the City’s infrastructure. As part of the hybrid work program, MSD has increased the deployment of laptops and started to phase out older PCs. A significant effort was made to consolidate many mobile phone carrier accounts, which has led to cost savings and more accurate billing. A major investment in technology was made to transition the City to the cloud-based Office 365 system, and the implementation of that system is underway and is expected to be fully implemented by the end of FY 23. MSD also replaced our aging multi-function devices (MFDs) with new leased machines, which also resulted in cost savings for the City. By the end of FY 23, MSD hopes to wrap up demonstrations and review initial proposals for a new Voice Over IP system (VoIP), to replace our legacy landline phone system that is out of date and in serious need of upgrading. On the cybersecurity front, MSD hopes to implement a new training and mitigation tool citywide to educate and train staff on potential cybersecurity threats to our organization’s security.
Grants and Contracts
The Department has worked to centralize the tracking and execution of contracts. The City Clerk’s Office has been delegated the responsibility of continuing to build on initial efforts. The Department has a centralized contracts tracker and is in the process of issuing official city contract numbers to make tracking easier. Our Senior Management Analyst has also worked with different departments regarding grant reporting and compliance obligations.

Key Performance Indicators
The South Pasadena Police Department meets the needs of the community by providing professional services to safeguard the city in crime prevention. Community outreach is accomplished by active patrols, educational programs, and social media through the City’s website. The Key Performance Indicators (KPI) for the department demonstrate the need to quantify its information in a concise and articulate manner.
Computer Aided Dispatch and Record Management System (CAD/RMS) • On March 22, 2022, the Motorola Flex System went into effect, bringing the South Pasadena Police Department into the 21st century of law enforcement. • The Motorola Flex System has established a detailed base of statistics for 2022 and year-to-date for 2023. In January 2022, the FBI modified reporting standards for Part 1 Crimes to include specific identifiers within each category. • The table below shows Part 1 Crime statistics for 2022 and the first quarter of 2023. With an increased law enforcement presence through recruiting and hiring efforts, the Police Department aims for a 5% reduction in Part 1 Crimes compared to 2022 statistics.
Recruit and Fill Vacant Police Department Sworn and Non Sworn Positions • The Police Department has 55 authorized full-time positions, along with six (6) part-time employees, one (1) Reserve Police Officer, and two (2) volunteers. • The Department currently has 13 unfilled positions, and due to nationwide challenges in law enforcement hiring, is planning to fill eight (8) of these vacant positions in FY 23-24.

Community Development
Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget Snapshot
Overview
The Community Development Department is comprised of five divisions: Planning, Building and Safety, Community Improvement, Housing, and Film and Art. Staff in Community Development supports the Planning Commission, Cultural Heritage Commission, Design Review Board and Public Art Commission. The Planning staff administers the City’s Zoning Code including land use and development regulations, processes land use permits, and undertakes long range land use planning. The Building staff enforces construction standards to safeguard life, health, and property by reviewing building plans for code compliance, issuing building permits, and performing construction inspections. The Community Improvement (code enforcement) staff works with property owners to secure compliance with the municipal code regarding property maintenance and health and safety issues. The Housing Division focuses on developing affordable housing policies and implementing strategies to improve housing opportunities for all income levels. Additionally, the Housing staff helps to monitor and implement the Housing Element programs. The department is also home to the South Pasadena Film Office which coordinates all filming activity in the City.
Notable Changes – Wages and Benefits
There is an increase in overall wages and benefits due to additional staffing needed in the department. A full-time Management Assistant position is being requested to help manage the department's four commissions and provide additional administrative assistance to the Housing Division. Additionally, this budget proposes to convert the part-time Community Improvement position to full-time to help with the code cases and to respond to various new City codes and State laws such as the ban on gas powered leaf blowers, and AB 838 tenant health and safety complaints.
Notable Changes – Operations and Maintenance
There is a significant increase in professional services to contract planning firms and consultants to assist with the implementation of the housing programs in the State mandated 6th Cycle Housing Element Update 2021-2029. During this fiscal year the department will be making significant zoning code amendments and finalize the General Plan and Downtown Specific Plan updates, among other department priorities. In addition, the budget for Professional Services includes an extensive work plan including:
Zoning Code amendments;

Library
Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget Snapshot
Overview
The Library Department is a community anchor and a resource and learning hub. It is a welcoming place for people of all ages, walks of life and socioeconomic backgrounds. People visit the Library to study, work, relax, and recharge. It is a place where people learn about their community, connect with their neighbors, and expand their horizons. The Library provides resources in a variety of formats to meet the information and learning needs of a diverse population. It supports reading readiness, literacy, lifelong learning, recreation, and professional development with its collections, programs, and services. The Library is open 7 days a week, for a total of 58 hours. In the first three-quarters of Fiscal Year 2022-23 the Library issued more than 2,000 new library cards, and an average of 14,285 patrons came through the doors every month. Borrowing is close to pre-pandemic levels, averaging 28,600 checkouts a month.
Librarians at our reference desks helped around 80 patrons each day and presented programs attended by more than 7,700 people.
Fiscal Year 2022-2023 was a banner year at the Library. We saw library operations return to normal as the impacts of COVID-19 receded, and the Library Special Tax, which provides approximately 20% of the Library’s budget, was renewed by 86.65% of the voters, and will continue until terminated by a majority vote of the electorate. A robust strategic planning process engaged the community and staff and resulted in a plan that will guide library programs and services for the next five years, as well as inform decisions about the allocation of human and fiscal resources. The plan outlines many exciting goals related to operations, the facility, technology, and services.
The Library’s goals for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 are tied to the strategic plan and include implementing a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system that will improve customer selfservice options and collection management, implementing a module for the Integrated Library System (ILS) that will streamline the acquisition of library materials, and securing funding from the California State Library for critical infrastructure and life-safety improvements to the facility.
Notable Changes – Wages and Benefits
The Library is not requesting any new positions or changes to positions for Fiscal Year 2023-24.
Notable Changes – Operations and Maintenance
The budget includes funding to enable librarians to attend The American Library Association’s annual conference, which will be held in San Diego.

Community Services
Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget Snapshot
Overview
The Community Services Department is pleased to submit the Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget proposal. The Community Services Department provides services within four divisions: Senior Division, Recreation Youth Division, Community Transit, and Community Services Division.
The following is a synopsis of the fiscal year for the Community Services Department.
The Senior Citizens Center, a multi-purpose facility, provides older adults with educational, social, physical, nutritional, and emotional services and city special events such as the Memorial Day Celebration. On-site meals, classes, and programs have resumed in person. Homedelivered meals continue to serve seniors residing within city limits.
The Recreation and Youth Division operates out of the Orange Grove Recreation Center and coordinates recreational classes for children and adults, after-school and summer child care, Facility and Park reservation, and city events such as Concerts in the Park, Eggstravaganza, Spooktacular, and Breakfast with Santa.
The Community Transit operates the Dial a Ride Program, which offers essential services for seniors, including rides to medical appointments, grocery stores, financial institutions, and social gatherings provided by the City. The Division has experienced an increase in ridership since the pandemic. A full-time Management Analyst and Management Assistant were hired to fill vacant positions. A new All-Electric 14 Passenger Van was purchased and is in operation. The Division will undergo an analysis of the Dial-A-Ride program.
The Community Services Division provides general department oversight plus budget and grant administration, park improvements, community liaison activities, and contract management of the Arroyo Seco Golf Course (Golf Course), Arroyo Seco Racquet Club, San Pascual Stables, South Pasadena Batting Cages, Ironworks Museum, and Tower Venture Cellular. All agreements have been fully executed with new contract terms except for the Golf Course which the agreement is on a month-to-month. The Golf Course completed a Market Support and Financial Analysis which is under review by City Council. An assessment of the Department was conducted by a consultant and recommendations will be implemented in FY 2023-2024. The Department implemented a new registration software called CivicPlus which will enhance the registration and reservation processes.
The staff supports the Community Services Commission, Festival of Balloons, South Pasadena Tournament of Roses Committee, and Recreation Leased Facilities Ad Hoc Committee.
