Contractor’s Address:

The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a portion of the Clean Water Act that applies to the protection of receiving waters. Under permits from the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), certain activities are subject to RWQCB enforcement. To meet the standards of the Waste Discharge Requirements for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Discharges within the Coastal Watershed of Los Angeles County, Except those Discharges Originating from the City of Long Beach MS4 (CAS004001), the City of Vernon has adopted minimum standards for stormwater runoff from development construction activities.

These minimum standards require the implementation of an effective combination of erosion and sediment control Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent erosion and sediment loss, and the discharge of construction waste at each site. At a minimum, the construction activity associated with the construction project identified above shall be conducted in such a manner that:
 Prevents illicit construction-related discharges of pollutants into the MS4 and receiving waters.  Implements and maintains structural and non-structural BMPs to reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff from construction sites.
 Reduces construction site discharges of pollutants to the MS4 to the maximum extent practicable.  Prevents construction site discharges to the MS4 from causing or contributing to a violation of water quality standards.

Note: The Stormwater BMP Construction Handbook sheets developed by the California Stormwater Quality Association shall be used as guidance in determining and implementing required BMPs. The BMP sheets may be reviewed at the Department of Public Works counter during regular business hours. A General Construction Permit shall be obtained and maintained for all construction sites one (1) acre or greater. Additional conditions may be required for these sites. .

Item 7 Page 159 of 371

E. Ineligible Subcontractors. The successful Bidder is prohibited from performing Work on the Project with any Subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public works project pursuant to California Labor Code Sections 1777.1 or 1777.7.

City Council Agenda Report
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
From: Genoveva Rocha, City Clerk
Department: City Clerk
Submitted by: Sandra Dolson, Deputy City Clerk
Subject
Brown Act Updates Related to Senate Bill 707
Recommendation
A. Receive a presentation on Brown Act updates related to the teleconferencing and accessibility provisions under Senate Bill 707 (SB 707);
B. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-024 Approving a Technology Disruption Policy; and C. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-025 Determining “reasonable efforts” for outreach to encourage participation in City Council meetings.

Background
On October 3, 2025, Governor Newsom signed into law Senate Bill 707 (SB 707), which amends the Brown Act. The Ralph M. Brown Act (Government Code Section 54950 et seq.) establishes requirements for open meetings of local legislative bodies. SB 707 updates provisions related to teleconferencing, including requirements for remote participation, accessibility, and procedures for addressing disruptions to meeting access for City Council meetings. Among other requirements, SB 707 requires the City Council to adopt a technology disruption policy and to determine what constitutes reasonable efforts for outreach to encourage public participation in City Council meetings, particularly among underrepresented and non-English-speaking communities. These policies must be adopted by July 1, 2026.

Remote Public Participation
Among other new requirements under SB 707, all qualified legislative bodies, including City Councils, must offer remote participation through a two-way phone or video platform for public meetings. This includes offering teleconferencing and two-way communication options that allow members of the public to both observe meetings and provide real-time public comment. The City has already been allowing remote observation of public meetings via Zoom for several years and will continue to do so. Pursuant to SB 707, effective July 1, 2026, the City will make available two-way remote participation via Zoom, during applicable meetings.

Teleconferencing
The Brown Act now expressly allows teleconferencing by a member as an accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as well as a limited number of instances of remote participation due to “just cause,” which may be used up to five to seven times per calendar year, depending on the number of regular meetings held per month. ADA-related teleconferencing must be provided when applicable legal requirements are met, whereas participation based on “just cause” is subject to the statutory annual limit. “Just cause” includes circumstances such as childcare or caregiving needs; a contagious illness; a physical or mental condition; travel on official business; the need to care for an immunocompromised family member; a personal or family medical emergency; or military service obligations that prevent in-person attendance.

Technology Disruption Policy – Resolution No. 2026-024
Government Code Section 54953.4 requires the City Council to adopt, by July 1, 2026, a technology disruption policy. The policy must address procedures for responding to disruptions .

of telephonic or internet service during a meeting and the efforts the legislative body will make to restore service. The statute further requires that if a disruption occurs that prevents members of the public from observing or participating in a City Council meeting through the two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform, the City Council must recess the open session for at least one hour and staff must make a good faith effort to restore service. During this time, the City Council may meet in closed session, as permitted by law. The City Council may not reconvene open session until at least one hour has passed or service has been restored, whichever occurs first.

If service has not been restored upon reconvening, the City Council must make findings by roll call vote that good faith efforts were made to restore access and that the public interest in continuing the meeting outweighs the public interest in providing remote access. Alternatively, the meeting may be adjourned.

The proposed policy incorporates these requirements and establishes procedures to ensure transparency and continuity of meetings in the event of a technology disruption during a City Council meeting, while maintaining flexibility to respond based on the specific circumstances.

Consistent with SB 707, the policy also provides for the removal of an individual from a meeting or limitation of their remote participation pursuant to Government Code Section 54957.95 if they engage in disruptive conduct following a specific warning by the Mayor or City Clerk.

Reasonable Efforts for Outreach – Resolution No. 2026-025 Government Code Section 54953.4 requires the City Council to determine and adopt what constitutes “reasonable efforts” to encourage participation in City Council meetings, particularly among underrepresented communities and non-English-speaking communities. The proposed resolution establishes the City’s approach to outreach, which may include inviting participation in City Council meetings from media organizations serving the City, including those serving nonEnglish-speaking communities, as well as civic, neighborhood, community-based, civil rights, and good government organizations. The statute provides the City Council with broad discretion in defining these reasonable efforts and clarifies that failure to provide notice to any specific group does not create a basis for legal action. The proposed policy is intended to provide flexibility while supporting expanded public awareness and participation.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

City Council Agenda Report
Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
From: Su Tan, Director of Human Resources
Department: Human Resources
Submitted by: Lisette Grizzelle, Human Resources Manager Subject
Amendment to Classification and Compensation Plan
Recommendation
A. Approve revised job descriptions and reclassifications; and B. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-026 adopting the Classification and Compensation Plan in accordance with Government Code Section 20636(b)(1) and repealing Resolution No. 2026-004, effective February 17, 2026.

Background
The Human Resources Department is responsible for the maintenance of the Citywide Classification and Compensation Plan (Plan) which consists of the various classification specifications (job descriptions) as well as the Compensation Schedules that list the classification titles and salaries for each classification which are attached to the Plan as Exhibits A.

Updated and Revised Job Descriptions
As part of the annual budget process, the Human Resources Department has worked in collaboration with various City Departments to update/revise existing job descriptions as appropriate. Revisions have been provided to the corresponding employee bargaining groups for review and feedback. The updated/revised job descriptions are summarized as follows for each of the applicable City Departments.

City Attorney
Approval of revised job descriptions and changes in salary grades for the classification titles of Deputy City Attorney and Senior Deputy City Attorney are recommended. The revisions recommended to these existing classifications more clearly distinguish and define the functions and responsibilities in this job series. Classification and compensation surveys were conducted to review and analyze comparable agencies’ compensation. Based on review of survey results the following salary grade changes are recommended and supported by survey findings. Deputy City Attorney from Exempt mid-management salary grade 35 monthly range ($12,262 - $14,904) to Exempt management salary grade 38 monthly range ($14,194 -$17,253). Senior Deputy City Attorney from Exempt management salary grade 39 monthly range ($14,904 - $18,116) to Exempt management salary grade 43 monthly range ($18,116 - $22,020).

Public Utilities Department
Approval of revised job descriptions in the Water Maintenance job series to reflect current job assignments and areas of responsibilities to distinguish between Construction and Production.

These recommended changes do not add to the number of budgeted positions in the Department and do not have a fiscal impact.

Health and Environmental Control Department
Approval of updated job description for the Classification title of Director of Health and Environmental Control to appropriately reflect the current functions and responsibilities of this position. These recommended changes do not add to the number of budgeted positions in the . .

Item 9 Page 1 of 151
Department and it does not have a fiscal impact.

Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(d)(3), prior to taking final action, an oral report summarizing the recommended revision to the salary schedule applicable to management and executive employees was provided.

Fiscal Impact
The estimated 2026-2027 fiscal impact associated with the proposed actions is as follows:

The annual fiscal impact is estimated at $235,945 (Salary $183,650-Step 3 and Benefits $52,295- PEPRA, Family medical contribution, no UAL consideration) for the recommended salary grade changes to the Deputy City Attorney and $297,075 (Salary $244,475-Step 3 and Benefits $52,600- PEPRA, Family medical contribution, no UAL consideration) for the Senior Deputy City Attorney. The Deputy City Attorney position is budgeted in the Proposed Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget; the Senior Deputy City Attorney classification is only being updated to ensure succession planning and alignment within the job series. Sufficient funds are available in the General Fund Account No. 011-010-115-501010 for the proposed Deputy City Attorney budget salary. The position is budgeted for half Fiscal Year 2026-27 at $91,825 proposed salaries for January-June 2027.

There is no additional annual increase associated with the approval of the recommended revisions to the Director of Health and Environmental Control job description or to the Water series job descriptions with the Public Utilities Department.
