Subject: RESOLUTION NO. 21:026 ESTABLISHING AND ADOPTING CERTAIN FEES, RATES, AND

CHARGES FOR DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION PROCESSING PERMITS AND SERVICES AND USER FEES FOR OTHER MUNICIPAL SERVICES

BACKGROUND In late 2018, the City Council approved a contract with Willdan Financial Services to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the City of Paramount’s User Fees. An in-depth analysis of the City’s User Fees hadn’t been done in recent history and, therefore, was considered a multi-year project. Realizing the economic uncertainty that the COVID-19 pandemic posed, staff postponed a presentation of the results of the Comprehensive User Fee Study until a more appropriate time. At the May 18, 2021 City Council meeting, the City Council was presented with an overview of the Comprehensive User Fee Study that was conducted by Willdan Financial Services. Consequently, the City Council received a copy of the Cost Recovery Analysis showing newly proposed fees along with the fees that are proposed to increase, decrease, and remain as is. The Council was asked to provide feedback to staff with regards to the proposed new fees, fee increases, and fee decreases. This Cost Recovery Analysis is included in the Comprehensive User Fee Study (Attached) as Appendix C. A public hearing for the Final User Fee Study will be held at tonight’s City Council meeting and staff is recommending adoption of the User Fee Study, which would trigger the new fee rates. By law, all increasing fees and new fees can go into effect 60 days after the City Council adoption; however, staff is recommending that the increasing fees and new fees take effect January 1, 2022. USER FEES A user fee is paid by users to gain access to a particular service or facility. As part of a general cost recovery strategy, the City of Paramount has adopted user fees to fund programs and services that provide limited or no direct benefit to the community as a whole. In 2013, the City increased a number of fees, however, these fees were only for

H:\CityManager\AGENDA\REPORTS\REPORTS 2021\AgendaRpt-FORM-Resolution-21_026.docx; 9/2/2021 2:25 PM

the processing of development applications and all related inspection services (commonly known as development or building permit fees). As stated above, for the first time in recent history, the City recently conducted a comprehensive review of ALL user fees and the related costs. PURPOSE OF USER FEE STUDY The purpose of the User Fee Study is to identify the full cost of fee-related activities and determine the level to which related fee revenue recovers those costs. The current fee schedule doesn’t reflect the actual costs of certain public services primarily benefitting users. In consideration of that, the City uses general tax monies to provide individuals with private benefits and does not require them to pay the full cost of the services. In addition, the City is limiting funds that may be available to provide other community-wide benefits. For the purposes of this study, Willdan Financial Services also reviewed all other fees that the City charges including those in the Community Services, Public Safety, and Public Works Departments. This review included a full-cost analysis which considers direct costs, departmental overhead costs, and indirect costs from non-operating departments that provide support to these frontline departments (the “full cost”). The study also details the subsidy that the City is providing for this service along with the suggested fee. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE STUDY Below are some highlights by department of the Comprehensive User Fee Study, as provided by our consultant at the May 18, 2021 meeting. Planning Department (Building Permit Fees):

• Current cost recovery is at 18% • The City uses valuation to determine the cost of permits • Suggested fee notes:

• Out of 129 fees, there would be an increase to 95 fees • 8 fees would remain as currently set • 11 fees would decrease • 15 new fees would be added

Planning Department (Planning Permit Fees)

• Suggested fee notes: • Out of 49 fees, there would be an increase to 22 fees • 5 fees would remain as currently set • 1 fee would change from variable to a flat amount • 1 fee would change to the actual cost of service • 20 new fees would be added • The average fee change would be a 58% increase

H:\CityManager\AGENDA\REPORTS\REPORTS 2021\AgendaRpt-FORM-Resolution-21_026.docx; 9/2/2021 2:25 PM

Community Services Department • Department consists primarily of facility rental fees and other recreation services.

• Based on City policy rather than cost • The department is currently at a 14% cost recovery

• It is generally accepted that Community Services programs provide some public benefit to the community and are subsidized.

• Fee schedules show full cost determination for many programs • Suggested fee notes:

• Out of 123 fees, there would be an increase to 3 fees • 120 fees would remain as currently set including animal licenses

Public Works & Public Safety

• Suggested fee notes: • Out of 29 fees, there would be an increase to 9 fees • 10 fees would remain as currently set • 3 fees changed from LA County to a flat amount • 7 new fees would be added • Average fee increase would be 25% for flat fee services

RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council conduct a public hearing, read by title only and adopt Resolution No. 21:026, establishing and adopting certain fees, rates, and charges for development application processing permits and services and user fees for other municipal services.

1 Comprehensive User Fee Study

Executive Summary The City of Paramount engaged Willdan Financial Services (Willdan) to determine the full costs incurred by

the City to support the various activities for which the City charges user fees. Due to the complexity and

the breadth of performing a comprehensive review of fees, Willdan employed a variety of fee

methodologies to identify the full costs of individual fee and program activities. This report and the

appendices herein identifies 100% full cost recovery for City services and the recommended level of

recovery as determined through discussion with departmental staff.

The reality of the local government fee environment is that significant increases to achieve 100% cost

recovery can often not be feasible, desirable, or appropriate depending on policy direction —particularly in

a single year. The recommended fees identified herein are either at or less than full cost recovery.


User Fee Background

Background As part of a general cost recovery strategy, local governments adopt user fees to fund programs and services

that provide limited or no direct benefit to the community as a whole. As cities struggle to maintain levels

of service and variability of demand, they have become increasingly aware of subsidies provided by the

General Fund and have implemented cost‐recovery targets. To the extent that governments use general

tax monies to provide individuals with private benefits, and not require them to pay the full cost of the

service (and, therefore, receive a subsidy), the government is limiting funds that may be available to provide

other community‐wide benefits. In effect, the government is using community funds to pay for private

benefit. Unlike most revenue sources, cities have more control over the level of user fees they charge to

recover costs, or the subsidies they can institute.

Fees in California are required to conform to the statutory requirements of the California Constitution,

Proposition 218, and the California Code of Regulations. The Code also requires that the City Council adopt

fees by either ordinance or resolution, and that any fees in excess of the estimated total cost of rendering

the related services must be approved by a popular vote of two‐thirds of those electors voting because the

charge would be considered a tax and not a fee.

California User Fee History Before Proposition 13, California cities were less concerned with potential subsidies and recovering the cost

of their services from individual fee payers. In times of fiscal shortages, cities simply raised property taxes,

which funded everything from police and recreation to development‐related services. However, this

situation changed with the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978.

Proposition 13 established the era of revenue limitation in California local government. In subsequent years,

the state saw a series of additional limitations to local government revenues. Proposition 4 (1979) defined

the difference between a tax and a fee: a fee can be no greater than the cost of providing the service; and

Proposition 218 (1996) further limited the imposition of taxes for certain classes of fees. As a result, cities

were required to secure a supermajority vote in order to enact or increase taxes. Since the public continues

to resist efforts to raise local government taxes, cities have little control and very few successful options for

new revenues. Compounding this limitation, the State of California took a series of actions in the 1990’s

and 2000’s to improve the State’s fiscal situation—at the expense of local governments. As an example, in

2004‐05, the Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (“ERAF”) take‐away of property taxes and the

reduction of Vehicle License Fees have severely reduced local tax revenues.

In addition, on November 2, 2010, California voters approved Proposition 26, the “Stop Hidden Taxes

Initiative”, which is aimed at defining “regulatory fees” as a special tax rather than a fee, thus requiring

approval by two‐thirds vote of local voters. These regulatory fees are typically intended to mitigate the

societal and environmental impacts of a business or person’s activities. Proposition 26 contains seven

categories of exceptions. The vast majority of fees that cities would seek to adopt will most likely fall into

one or more of these exemptions.


Additional Policy Considerations The recent trend for municipalities is to update their fee schedules to reflect the actual costs of certain

public services primarily benefitting users. User Fees recover costs associated with the provision of specific

services benefiting the user, thereby reducing the use of General Fund monies for such purposes.

In addition to collecting the direct cost of labor and materials associated with processing and administering

user services, it is common for local governments to recover support costs. Support costs are those costs

relating to a local government’s central service departments that are properly allocable to the local

government’s operating departments. Central services support cost allocations were incorporated using

the resulting indirect overhead percentages determined through the Cost Allocation Plan. This plan was

developed prior to the User Fee study to determine the burden placed upon central services by the

operating departments in order to allocate a proportionate share of central service cost.

As labor effort and costs associated with the provision of services fluctuate over time, a significant element

in the development of any fee schedule is that it has the flexibility to remain current. Therefore, it is

recommended that the City include an inflationary factor in the resolution adopting the fee schedule to

allow the City Council, by resolution, to annually increase or decrease the fees.

The City may employ many different inflationary factors. The most commonly used inflator is some form

of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as it is widely well known and accepted. A similar inflator is the implicit

price deflator for GDP, which is much like the CPI except that while the CPI is based on the same “basket”

of goods and services every year, the price deflators’ “basket” can change year to year. Since the primary

factor for the cost of a City’s services is usually the costs of the personnel involved, tying an inflationary

factor that connects more directly to the personnel costs can be suitable if there is a clear method, or

current practice of obtaining said factor.

Each City should use an inflator that they believe works the best for their specific situation and needs. It is

also recommended that the City perform this internal review annually with a comprehensive review of

services and fees performed every three to five years, which would include adding or removing fees for any

new or eliminated programs/services, as well as updating the underlying cost and personnel data.


Study Objective As the City of Paramount seeks to efficiently manage limited resources and adequately respond to increased

service demands, it needs a variety of tools. These tools provide assurance that the City has the best

information and the best resources available to make sound decisions, fairly and legitimately set fees,

maintain compliance with state law and local policies, and meet the needs of the City administration and

its constituency. Given the limitations on raising revenue in local government, the City recognizes that a

User Fee Study is a very cost‐effective way to understand the total cost of services and identify potential

fee deficiencies. Essentially, a User Fee is a payment for a requested service provided by a local government

that primarily benefits an individual or group.

The total cost of each service included in this analysis is based on the full cost of providing City services,

including direct salaries and benefits of City staff, direct departmental costs, and indirect costs from central

service support. This study determines the full cost recovery fee for the City to provide each service;

however, each fee is set at the City’s discretion, up to 100% of the total cost, as specified in this report.

The principle goal of the study was to help the City determine the full cost of the services that the City

provides. In addition, Willdan established a series of additional objectives including:

Developing a rational basis for setting fees

Identifying subsidy amount, if applicable, of each fee in the model

Ensuring compliance with State law

Developing an updatable and comprehensive list of fees

Maintaining accordance with City policies and goals

The study results will help the City better understand its true costs of providing services and may serve as

a basis for making informed policy decisions regarding the most appropriate fees, if any, to collect from

individuals and organizations that require individualized services from the City.

Scope of the Study The scope of this study encompasses a review and calculation of the user fees charged by the following

Paramount departments and fee groups:

Community Services & Recreation

Building

Planning

Public Works

Public Safety

The study involved the identification of existing and potential new fees, fee schedule restructuring, data

collection and analysis, orientation and consultation, quality control, communication and presentations,

and calculation of individual service costs (fees) or program cost recovery levels.


Aim of the Report The User Fee Study focused on the cost of City services, as City staff currently provides them at existing,

known, or reasonably anticipated service and staff levels. This report provides a summary of the study

results, and a general description of the approach and methods Willdan and City staff used to determine

the recommended fee schedule. The report is not intended to document all of the numerous discussions

throughout the process, nor is it intended to provide influential dissertation on the qualities of the utilized

tools, techniques, or other approaches.


Project Approach and Methodology

Conceptual Approach The basic concept of a User Fee Study is to determine the “reasonable cost” of each service provided by

the City for which it charges a user fee. The full cost of providing a service may not necessarily become the

City’s fee, but it serves as the objective basis as to the maximum amount that may be collected.

The standard fee limitation established in California law for property‐related (non‐discretionary) fees is the

“estimated, reasonable cost” principle. In order to maintain compliance with the letter and spirit of this

standard, every component of the fee study process included a related review. The use of budget figures,

time estimates, and improvement valuation clearly indicates reliance upon estimates for some data.

Fully Burdened Hourly Rates The total cost of each service included in this analysis is primarily based on the Fully Burdened Hourly Rates

(FBHRs) that were determined for City personnel directly involved in providing services. The FBHRs include

not only personnel salary and benefits, but also any costs that are reasonably ascribable to personnel. The

cost elements that are included in the calculation of fully burdened rates are:

Salaries & benefits of personnel involved

Operating costs applicable to fee operations

Departmental support, supervision, and administration overhead

Internal Service Costs charged to each department

Indirect City‐wide overhead costs

An important factor in determining the fully burdened rate is in the calculation of productive hours for

personnel. This calculation takes the available workable hours in a year of 2,080 and adjusts this figure to

account for calculated or anticipated hours’ employees are involved in non‐billable activities such as paid

vacation, sick leave, emergency leave, holidays, and other considerations as necessary. Dividing the full cost

by the number of productive hours provides the FBHR.

The FBHRs are then used in conjunction with time estimates, when appropriate, to calculate a fees' cost

based on the personnel and the amount of their time that is involved in providing each service.


Summary Steps of the Study The methodology to evaluate most User Fee levels is straightforward and simple in concept. The following

list provides a summary of the study process steps:

Allowable Costs This report identifies three types of costs that, when combined, constitute the fully burdened cost of a

service (Appendix A). Costs are defined as

direct labor, including salary and benefits,

departmental overhead costs, and the City’s

central services overhead, where

departmental and central service overhead

costs constitute support costs. These cost

types are defined as follows:

Direct Labor (Personnel Costs): The

costs related to staff salaries for

time spent directly on fee‐related

services.

Departmental Overhead: A

proportional allocation of

departmental overhead costs, including operation costs such as supplies and materials that are

necessary for the department to function.

Central Services Overhead: These costs, represent services provided by those Central Services

Departments whose primary function is to support other City departments. The calculations

utilized the de minimus rate of 10% proscribed by 2 CFR Part 200 Cost Principles for use in

organizations that do not have a cost allocation plan.

Methodology The three methods of analysis for calculating fees used in this report are the:

Case Study Method (Standard Unit Cost Build‐Up Approach): This approach estimates the actual

labor and material costs associated with providing a unit of service to a single user. This analysis is suitable

when City staff time requirements do not vary dramatically for a service, or for special projects where the

time and cost requirements are easy to identify at the project’s outset. Further, the method is effective in

instances when a staff member from one department assists on an application, service or permit for

another department on an as‐needed basis. Costs are estimated based upon interviews with City staff

regarding the time typically spent on tasks, a review of available records, and a time and materials analysis.

Programmatic Approach: In some instances, the underlying data is not available or varies widely, leaving

a standard unit cost build‐up approach impractical. In addition, market factors and policy concerns (as

opposed to actual costs) tend to influence fee levels more than other types of services. Willdan employed

a different methodology where appropriate to fit the programs’ needs and goals. Typical programmatic

approach cases are facility use fees, penalties, and instances where a program cost is divided over the user

base to obtain a per applicant cost for shared cost services.

Valuation Based Fees: This manner of collection is used when the valuation of the improvement can be

used as a proxy for the amount of effort it would take for City staff to complete the service provided. More

specifically, this approach is commonly used for certain User Fees in the Building Division. It is generally

accepted that as a project’s size scales up, the cost of the project increases, and the amount of effort needed

to review and inspect also increases. Using a valuation‐based fee provides for a system that can adjust as

project sizes scale. Land is not included in the valuation.

Quality Control/Quality Assurance All study components are interrelated, thus flawed data at any step in the process will cause the ultimate

results to be inconsistent and unsound. The elements of our Quality Control process for User Fee

calculations include:

Involvement of knowledgeable City staff

Clear instructions and guidance to City staff

Reasonableness tests and validation

Normalcy/expectation ranges

FTE balancing

Internal and external reviews

Cross‐checking


Reasons for cost increases/decreases over current fees Within the fee tables in Appendix C, the differences are identified between the full costs calculated

through the study and the fee levels currently in effect. The reasons for differences between the two can

arise from a number of possible factors including:

Previous fee levels may have been set at levels less than full cost intentionally, based on policy decisions

Staffing levels and the positions that complete fee and service activity may vary from when the previous costs were calculated

Personnel and materials costs could have increased at levels that differed from any inflationary factors used to increase fees since the last study

Costs that this study has identified as part of the full cost of services may not have been accounted for in a previous study

o Departmental overhead and administration costs

o Vehicle and Facility Maintenance support costs

o Indirect overhead from central service support

Changes in processes and procedures within a department, or the City as a whole

City Staff Contributions As part of the study process, Willdan received tremendous support and cooperation from City staff, which

contributed and reviewed a variety of components to the study, including:

Budget and other cost data

Staffing structures

Fee and service structures, organization, and descriptions

Direct and indirect work hours (billable/non‐billable)

Time estimates to complete work tasks

Frequency and current fee levels

Review of draft results and other documentation

A User Fee Study requires significant involvement of the managers and line staff from the departments—

on top of their existing workloads and competing priorities. The contributions from City staff were critical

to this study. We would like to express our appreciation to the City and its staff for their assistance,

professionalism, positive attitudes, helpful suggestions, responsiveness, and overall cooperation.


Paramount User Fees

Cost Recovery The cost recovery models, by department/division fee type, are presented in detail in Appendix C. Full cost

recovery is determined by summing the estimated amount of time each position (in increments of minutes

or hours) spends to render a service. Time estimates for each service rendered were predominately

determined by Willdan and City Staff through a time and materials survey conducted for each

department/division fee included in the study. The resulting cost recovery amount represents the total cost

of providing each service. The City’s current fee being charged for each service, if applicable, is provided in

this section, as well, for reference.

It is important to note that the time and materials survey used to determine the amount of time each

employee spends assisting in the provision of the services listed on the fee schedule is essential in

identifying the total cost of providing each service. Specifically, in providing services, a number of

employees are often involved in various aspects of the process, spending anywhere from a few minutes to

several hours on the service.

The principle goal of this study was to identify the cost of City services, to provide information to help the

City make informed decisions regarding the actual fee levels and charges. The responsibility to determine

the final fee levels is a complicated task. City staff must consider many issues in formulating

recommendations, and the City Council must consider those same issues and more in making the final

decisions.

City staff assumes the responsibility to develop specific fee level recommendations to present to the City

Council. Unfortunately, there are no hard and fast rules to guide the City, since many of the considerations

are based on the unique characteristics of the City of Paramount, and administrative and political discretion.

However, in setting the level of full cost recovery for each fee, one should consider whether the service

solely benefits one end user or the general community.

Subsidization Recalling the definition of a user fee helps guide decisions regarding subsidization. The general standard is

that individuals (or groups) who receive a wholly private benefit should pay 100% of the full cost of the

services. In contrast, services that are simply public benefit should be funded entirely by the general fund’s

tax dollars. Unfortunately, for the decision makers, many services fall into the range between these two

extremes.

Further complicating the decision, opponents of fees often assert that the activities subject to the fees

provide economic, cultural, “quality of life,” or other community benefits that exceed the costs to the City.

It is recommended the City consider such factors during its deliberations regarding appropriate fee levels.

Of course, subsidization can be an effective public policy tool, since it can be used to reduce fees to

encourage certain activities (such as compliance inspections to ensure public safety) or allow some people

to be able to afford to receive services they otherwise could not at the full cost. In addition, subsidies can


be an appropriate and justifiable action, such as to allow citizens to rightfully access services, without

burdensome costs.

Despite the intent, it is important for the City and public to understand that subsidies must be covered by

another revenue source, such as the General Fund. Therefore, the general taxpayer will potentially help to

fund private benefits, and/or other City services will not receive funds that are otherwise directed to cover

subsidies.

Impact on Demand (Elasticity) Economic principles of elasticity suggest that increased costs for services (higher fees) will eventually curtail

the demand for the services; whereas lower fees may spark an incentive to utilize the services and

encourage certain actions. Either of these conditions may be a desirable effect to the City. However, the

level of the fees that would cause demand changes is largely unknown. The Cost of Service Study did not

attempt to evaluate the economic or behavioral impacts of higher or lower fees; nevertheless, the City

should consider the potential impacts of these issues when deciding on fee levels.

Summary If the City’s principal goal of this study were to maximize revenues from user fees, Willdan would

recommend setting user fees at 100% of the full cost identified in this study. However, we understand that

revenue enhancement is not the only goal of a cost of service study, and sometimes full‐cost recovery is

not needed, desired, or appropriate. Other City and departmental goals, City Council priorities, policy

initiatives, past experience, implementation issues, and other internal and external factors may influence

staff recommendations and City Council decisions. City staff has reviewed the full costs and identified the

“recommended fee levels” for consideration by City Council. The attached appendices exhibit these unit

fees individually.

The preceding sections provide background for each department or division and the results of this study’s

analysis of their fees. For the full list of each fee and their analysis, refer to Appendix C of this report.


Community Services and Recreation The Community Services & Recreation Department provides recreational, educational, cultural, and social

opportunities for the community. Supervision and instruction are offered for after school programs, aquatic

activities, sports field usage, organized athletic leagues, instructional classes, and summer camps. The

department offers programs which provide senior citizens with nutritious meals, social activities, medical

testing, tax assistance, and counseling. The department also supervises and schedules public meetings and

athletic facilities, oversees capital improvements at City Parks, and administers the community

transportation system.

Analysis Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with the Community Services and

Recreation Department. The review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to

update the fee schedule.

The analysis of most Community Services and Recreation programs encompassed facility rentals and other

recreation services. The fee for use for government owned facilities and property can be set discretionally

by the City, typically based on past usage characteristics, policy goals, and surrounding jurisdiction

comparison. The cost of capital acquisition, maintenance, repair, and upgrade to the City and subsequently

the public is offset through rental or use fees. As such these fees should be set using the knowledge of

activity use for the facilities, policy desires of the City, and market factors when desirable. It is generally

accepted that some Recreation programs provide a measure of public benefit to the residents and City as

a whole, and as such is it common for services to bear significant subsidies. In addition, cities generally want

to ensure that their programs and services remain affordable to the community at large, and that the

programs remain competitive with surrounding jurisdictions. Overall Community Services and Recreation

cost recovery was analyzed and is to be about 14%. The suggested fees detailed in Appendix C would result

in:

An increase for 3 fees, and;

The remaining fees would remain as currently set as detailed in Appendix C.

In addition, the Dog Licensing fees are to remain at their current levels and are at a 29% cost

recovery.


Building The role of the City of Paramount's Building and Safety Division is to enforce the provisions of the California

Building, Electrical, Plumbing, and Mechanical Codes and other codes, laws, and City ordinances. The intent

and purpose of the Building Code is to establish the minimum requirements to safeguard the public safety,

health, and general welfare.

The Building and Safety Division reviews construction documents and issues permits for the construction,

alteration, demolition, and relocation of buildings and structures. Building and Safety inspects the

properties for which such permits have been issued.

Analysis Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with Building. The review also

consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of Building services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build‐up approach (except for

fees related to the Building Permit program), whereby we determined the reasonable cost of each fee

occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of staff and pro‐rata share of departmental costs,

including indirect costs for City Central Services. The analysis found that services are currently set below

the full cost of providing them. For unit fees under Mechanical, Plumbing, and Electrical sections the

services listed are not typically provided on a single use basis, but often combine multitudes within those

sections. As such the suggested fees in those sections were limited in the cost recovery recommended. It

is recommended that the City increase cost recovery for Building services to the levels shown for each fee

as detailed in Appendix C. As a result, there would be:

an increase to 95 fees;

11 fees would decrease;

9 fees would remain as currently set, and;

14 new fees would be added.

In addition to the above referenced fees listed under Building, the Building Permit fees are also provided

by this division. For the Building Permit fees, valuation is used as a proxy for measuring the amount of

effort needed to provide services on a case by case basis. This method is an industry standard widely used

by other jurisdictions to evaluate the cost of providing service. It is generally understood that the larger and

more complex a project is, more time and effort that is required to provide the service. Project valuation

also follows that trend, and so by using a combination of either project valuation or historical revenue

figures along with a multiplier or cost recovery analysis for historical and anticipated future construction

trends, current cost recovery along with variability in charges due to project type and scale is determined.

The result of the cost analysis completed using fee activity going back to fiscal year 2010 for Building Permits

and found that the program is currently operating at 18% cost recovery. It is suggested that the fees be

increased to raise cost recovery to 22%, which would require a 20% increase. Current and new fees are

detailed in Appendix C.


Planning The Planning Department is responsible for the administration of the City’s development process, including

residential, commercial, and industrial uses. The department performs current and long range planning;

enforces zoning and building codes; reviews site and development plans; issues building, electrical, grading,

mechanical, and plumbing permits; provides technical support to City departments; and provides staff

support and analyses to the City Planning Commission. The department administers the Home

Improvement Program which provides rebates to Paramount residents for upgrading deteriorated

properties and correcting code violations.

Analysis Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with Planning. The review also


The analysis of Planning Services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build‐up approach, whereby we

determined the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of staff

and the pro‐rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan then

compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether the

current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that flat rate

fees were regularly set below the full cost of providing the service. It is recommended that the City set most

Planning Division fees at or near 100% cost recovery for most fees as detailed in Appendix C, with some

specific fees set to retain subsidies. As a result, there would be:


1 fee would change to flat from variable based fee;

1 fee would change to flat to Actual Cost based fee;

18 new fees will be added;


the average estimated fee increase would be around 56% for flat fee services.


Public Works The Public Works Department is responsible for maintaining all City‐owned facilities, substructures, streets,

and land. The department maintains 72 miles of streets and alleys, a fleet of about 75 vehicles and over 100

pieces of major equipment, 3 water production sites, 126 miles of water distribution and transmission lines,

7,500 water meters, approximately 71 acres of parkland and landscaped traffic medians, approximately

12,000 trees and 9 City facilities.

Analysis Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with Public Works Department. The

review also consisted of an evaluation of existing services in an effort to update the fee schedule.

The analysis of Public Works Services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build‐up approach, whereby

we determined the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of

staff and the pro‐rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Willdan

then compared the calculated full cost against the current fee amount to determine, if charged, whether

the current fee is recovering the costs associated with the requested service. The analysis found that current

fee levels are subsidizing the cost of service. It is recommended that the City set most Public Works Services

fees at or near 100% cost recovery for most fees as detailed in Appendix C, with some specific fees set to

retain subsidies. As a result, there would be:


9 new fees would be added;

3 fees would change from County Rate to flat fee;


the average estimated fee increase would be around 25% for flat fee services.


Public Safety The Public Safety Department provides City residents with services for the protection of life and property.

It includes coordination, liaison, and monitoring of services provided by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s

Department, the Los Angeles County Fire Department, Los Angeles County Probation and District Attorney's

Office and the Southeast Area Animal Control Authority. These organizations provide general law

enforcement, fire and rescue services, and animal control. Supplemental law enforcement services are

provided through the City’s Community Service Officer (CSO) Program, and operation of the Paramount

Sheriff’s Station. In addition, code enforcement, crossing guard protection for school children, enforcement

of local parking regulations, coordinating Neighborhood Watch activities with residents and administration

of the City’s Civil Defense/Emergency Plan are provided under this function.

Analysis Willdan individually reviewed the services and programs associated with Public Safety. The review also


The analysis of Public Safety Services relied primarily upon a standard unit cost build‐up approach, whereby

we determined the reasonable cost of each fee occurrence using staff time to recover the direct cost of

staff and the pro‐rata share of departmental costs, including indirect costs for City Central Services. Two

new fees, Street Closure and Newspaper Rack Removal, will be added as detailed in Appendix C.


Appendix A – Total Allowable Cost to be Recovered Below are the total department costs for those departments included in the fee study. However, only a

percentage of the total cost is realized as staff does not just work on services related to User Fees, but also

works on an array of other City functions during the operational hours of the City. The amounts listed below

will not reconcile to City budgets as costs that should not be included in overhead for personnel in the

application of determining fully burdened hourly rates were excluded. Examples of these costs are capital,

debt, monetary transfers, passthrough contract costs, and any other costs that are charged directly to the

service requestor.

Appendix C – Cost Recovery Analysis The following tables provide the results of the analysis, resulting full cost recovery amount, and

recommended fees. For fees in which the full cost, existing fee and suggested fee is listed as “NA”, the

amount or percentage was not calculable based on cost data or variable fee structure. This is most common

when either the current or the suggested fee includes a variable component that is not comparable on a

one to one basis, a full cost was not calculated (for penalties, fines, and facility use), or when there is not a

current fee amount to compare against.

Date: September 7, 2021

Subject: RESOLUTION NO. 21:025/GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 21-1 15160 PIMENTA AVENUE, 8851 PASEO STREET, 8857 PASEO

STREET, 15348 PIMENTA AVENUE, AND 15352 PIMENTA AVENUE Background This item is a request by Alan H. Shen to change the land use designation on the General Plan Land Use Map from Commercial to Single-Family Residential for properties at 15160 Pimenta Avenue, 8851 Paseo Street, 8857 Paseo Street, 15348 Pimenta Avenue, and 15352 Pimenta Avenue. The applicant is part of the trust that is the property owner of 15348 Pimenta Avenue. The City Council most recently adopted a comprehensive Paramount General Plan update in 2007. The General Plan is made up of elements – land use, housing, transportation, resources management, health and safety, economic development, public facilities, and implementation. A new element – environmental justice – is now under preparation. The Land Use Element of the General Plan serves as the long-term guide for development in Paramount and indicates the distribution, location, and land use for housing, business, industry, open space, recreation, and public facilities. California Government Code Section 65860 requires General Plan Land Use Map and Zoning Map consistency. This item is associated with Ordinance No. 1154/Zone Change No. 238, which the City Council will review later this evening. The Planning Commission reviewed these two items – General Plan Amendment No. 21-1 and Zone Change No. 238 – at its August 10, 2021 meeting and unanimously recommended approval to the City Council. Description The applicant submitted an application to change the land use designation on the General Plan Land Use Map for the property at 15348 Pimenta Avenue. Upon review of the merits of the proposal and similarly designated and developed land parcels in the surrounding neighborhood, staff determined justification to extend the General Plan amendment and complementary zone change to four additional properties. The subject area includes three of the four properties north of Paseo Street and east of Pimenta Avenue (excluding the property developed with a vacant commercial building that fronts Lakewood Boulevard).

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:025/GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 21-1 Page 2 The five subject properties each contain a single-family residence. The map below indicates the project location and five lots:

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:025/GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 21-1 Page 3 When adopting the Zoning Map in 1962, the City Council zoned properties along this block C-3 (General Commercial), and successive updates to the Paramount General Plan have supported that classification with a Commercial land use designation. Although the intent of the zoning and General Plan land use designations have been to transition away from residential to more commercial land uses, the landowners have opted to maintain the residential character. Below is a summary of the five properties, each of which are under separate ownership:

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:025/GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 21-1 Page 4 PROPOSED

Discussion As shown on the maps above, the proposed General Plan land use designation of Single-Family Residential would extend an existing Single-Family Residential area to the portion on the east side of Pimenta Avenue. The amended land use integrates well with the surrounding neighborhood, which is comprised of single-family residential properties. Upon implementation of the companion zone change application, property owners will have the option to construct an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) that meets City development requirements. Obtaining approval for loan refinancing is often highly challenging for owners of legal nonconforming properties, and lenders are also reluctant to provide traditional loans to prospective buyers. Changing to a residential land use with the accompanying zone change provides a simplified means for the owners to access their equity and sell to the open real estate market, rather than relying on nontraditional financing or inheritance. Furthermore, removing the Commercial land use designation eliminates the possibility of linear strip mall development. Maintaining the status quo may lead to eventual albeit slow redevelopment to commercial uses, but such development would likely be fragmented given the land use history of this block firmly rooted in housing. As the average construction year for the homes on these five properties is 1918, over 100 years have passed without natural change away from residential to commercial uses.

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:025/GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 21-1 Page 5 Outreach Planning Department staff mailed a letter informing the owners of the five potentially affected properties. At the time of writing this report, no property owners have responded in opposition or support to the project. Property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the project area were also directly mailed notifications of the Planning Commission and the present City Council public hearing. Public hearing notices for both hearings were published in the Paramount Journal. The Planning Commission and City Council agendas were posted on the City website and outside City and County facilities in Paramount. Environmental Assessment This project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(a)(3) – general rule that CEQA only applies to projects which have the potential of causing a significant effect on the environment. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council read by title only and adopt Resolution No. 21:025.

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Paramount has received an application from Alan H. Shen to change the land use designation on the General Plan Land Use Map from Commercial to Single-Family Residential for properties at 15348 Pimenta Avenue; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Paramount sets forth to extend the application to include four neighboring properties and change the land use designation on the General Plan Land Use Map from Commercial to Single-Family Residential for properties at 15160 Pimenta Avenue, 8851 Paseo Street, 8857 Paseo Street, 15348 Pimenta Avenue, and 15352 Pimenta Avenue in the City Of Paramount; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Paramount has caused notices to be published in the time and manner as required by law; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Paramount conducted a public hearing relative to General Plan Amendment No. 21-1 on August 10, 2021; and WHERAS, the City Council of the City of Paramount conducted a public hearing relative to General Plan Amendment No. 21-1 on September 7, 2021. WHEREAS, this project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(b)(3) – general rule that CEQA only applies to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PARAMOUNT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The above recitations are true and correct. SECTION 2. The City Council finds that it has conducted all the public hearings necessary and in compliance with State Law and the Municipal Code of the City of Paramount.

RESOLUTION NO. 21:025 Page 2 SECTION 3. The City Council finds that the evidence presented does justify the granting of this application for the following reasons: 1. That modified conditions warrant a revision in the General Plan Land Use

Map as it pertains to the area under consideration.

2. That placement of the proposed land use designation at such location will not:

a. Adversely affect the health, peace, or welfare of persons residing or

working in the surrounding area; and

b. Jeopardize, endanger, or otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety, or general welfare.

3. That such land use designation is necessary or desirable for the

development of the community, is essentially in harmony with the various elements of the General Plan, and is not detrimental to existing uses.

SECTION 4. Based upon the foregoing findings, the City Council approves General Plan Amendment No. 21-1. SECTION 5. The General Plan Land Use Map of the City of Paramount as comprehensively updated when adopted by the City Council on August 7, 2007 is amended as shown on the map attached hereto, marked Exhibit “A”, to be changed to the land use designation of Commercial.

15348 PIMENTA AVENUE, AND 15352 PIMENTA AVENUE Background This item is a request by Alan H. Shen to change the official Zoning Map from C-3 (General Commercial) to R-1 (Single-Family Residential) for properties at 15160 Pimenta Avenue, 8851 Paseo Street, 8857 Paseo Street, 15348 Pimenta Avenue, and 15352 Pimenta Avenue. The properties are located east of Pimenta Avenue and west of Lakewood Boulevard. The change would bring the properties into consistency with the existing conditions of the area. The Zoning Map, adopted in 1962 with the Zoning Ordinance, can be amended in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 17.52 of the Paramount Municipal Code. Following a Planning Commission recommendation, the City Council considers a proposed zone change. The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed zone change at its August 10, 2021 meeting and unanimously recommended approval to the City Council. The applicant is part of the trust that is the property owner of 15348 Pimenta Avenue. The applicant submitted a zone chance application for the property at 15348 Pimenta Avenue. Upon review of the merits of the proposal and similarly designated and developed land parcels in the surrounding neighborhood, staff determined justification to extend the zone change and complementary General Plan amendment to four additional properties. Property Details The two properties at 15352 and 15348 Pimenta Avenue each contain a detached single-family home. Both properties each consist of 3,000 square foot lots. 15160 Pimenta measures 3,654 square feet in lot size. 8857 Paseo Street measures 2,884 square feet in lot size, and 8851 Paseo measures 2,997 in lot size. All properties contain one single-family dwelling. The average construction year for the homes on these five properties is 1918; over 100 years have passed without natural change away from residential to commercial uses.

To: Honorable City Council From: John Moreno, City Manager By: Adriana Lopez, Public Safety Director

Danny Elizarraras, Management Analyst Date: September 7, 2021

Subject: PUBLIC HEARING – EDWARD BYRNE MEMORIAL JUSTICE

ASSISTANCE GRANT (JAG) PROGRAM FUNDING FISCAL YEAR 2021-2022

Background Since 1997, the City of Paramount has been a grant recipient of the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program in support of crime-fighting efforts through federal funding. The United States Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance funds the JAG program to support state, local, and tribal law enforcement efforts to prevent or reduce crime. Discussion The Federal Fiscal Year (FY) for 2021 runs from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021. The Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), establishes JAG awards based on the current Federal Fiscal Year. BJS announces JAG funding opportunities for jurisdictions the following year after October. For example, BJS established JAG FY 21 after October 2020, but will award JAG funds to jurisdictions in September 2021 at which point local jurisdictions such as Paramount have already adopted Fiscal Year 2022 based off its fiscal calendar. Moreover, before BJS determines the JAG awards for each jurisdiction it must establish an award amount based off population and the 3-year violent crime average derived from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Report (UCR). UCR statistics are typically a year behind the calendar year. For instance, the FBI currently provides UCR statistics up until 2019, which means BJS uses UCR violent crime statistics from 2017 to 2019. The Bureau of Justice Assistance recognizes that many state and local agencies face challenging fiscal environments and that a cost-effective way to relieve those challenges is to share resources through cooperation among federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies. For JAG Fiscal Year 2021-2022, the Bureau of Justice Assistance allocated $25,048 to the City of Paramount. Each year the Public Safety Department strategizes on efforts to reduce the number of injury traffic collisions in Paramount. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) traffic investigators consistently determine the primary cause for most traffic

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 PUBLIC HEARING – EDWARD BYRNE MEMORIAL JUSTICE Page 2 ASSISTANCE GRANT (JAG) PROGRAM FUNDING FISCAL YEAR 2021-2022 collisions in Paramount result from speeding, reckless driving, unsafe lane changes, unsafe turning movements, distracted driving, seat-belt violations, and driving under the influence. These traffic violations are commonly known as “Primary Collision Factors” (PCF). The City of Paramount seeks to use the JAG Fiscal Year 2021-2022 funds to hire traffic enforcement deputies to support PCF traffic enforcement operations. Traffic enforcement deputies specifically trained in PCF traffic enforcement will deploy to seven major streets across the City to enforce and prevent speeding, reckless driving, unsafe traffic movements, and distracted driving. On August 26, 2021, the Paramount Journal published a public hearing notice at the request of the Public Safety Department in accordance with the JAG program’s requirements. Proposal The City does not contract for a dedicated traffic enforcement unit but rather addresses traffic violation concerns through allocated traffic enforcement overtime hours and posted speed monitors. This deployment strategy allows the Public Safety Department to maximize its law enforcement resources in a cost-effective manner and to address an array of traffic safety concerns. In a continual effort to maintain traffic safety in Paramount, the Public Safety Department and the Sheriff’s Department continue to seek additional strategies to make traffic safety its primary focus. PCF traffic enforcement deputies will deploy for 38 weeks in 6-hour shifts during mornings and afternoons to the following major streets from January 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022:

East-West Streets • 6600 to 8800 blocks of Rosecrans Avenue • 6600 to 8800 blocks of Somerset Boulevard • 6600 to 8800 blocks of Alondra Boulevard

North-South Streets

• 13800 to 16600 blocks of Orange Avenue • 13800 to 16600 blocks of Garfield Avenue • 13800 to 16600 blocks of Paramount Boulevard • 13800 to 16600 blocks of Downey Avenue

The area of operation will be along the major streets based upon calls for service, public tips, traffic information, or investigative resources suggesting of where PCF traffic violations commonly occur. The traffic enforcement deputies in Paramount will also work with Paramount residents and neighboring law enforcement agencies to determine where PCF traffic violations commonly occur.

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 PUBLIC HEARING – EDWARD BYRNE MEMORIAL JUSTICE Page 3 ASSISTANCE GRANT (JAG) PROGRAM FUNDING FISCAL YEAR 2021-2022 The City of Paramount contracts with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) for law enforcement services. LASD operates the Los Angeles County Regional Crime Information System (LARCIS) to collect and manage crime data. Through LARCIS, the Sheriff’s Department submits crime data to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on behalf of Paramount. By 2021, the Sheriff’s Department intends to procure and shift over to a new record management system (RMS) that supports the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). The new RMS will allow the Sheriff’s Department to submit NIBRS crime data to the FBI on behalf of Paramount. A new requirement to be awarded the JAG grant is to use 3% of the allocated funds to purchase NIBRS. The City of Paramount intends to support the implementation cost for the Sheriff’s NIBRS transition. The City will issue a $751.44 check of JAG Fiscal Year 2021-2022 funds to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, backed with a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in accordance with the Sheriff’s Department direction, to support the purchase of RMS software needed to achieve NIBRS capability. The City will coordinate with the Sheriff’s Contract Law Enforcement Bureau (CLEB) to ensure JAG Fiscal Year 2021-2022 funds of $751.44 are used in accordance with the 3% NIBRS special condition. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council conduct a public hearing and authorize the use of the JAG Fiscal Year 2021-2022 funds to support Primary Collision Factors traffic enforcement operations.

Esther Luis, Consultant Date: September 7, 2021

Subject: PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING FY 2020-2021 CONSOLIDATED

ANNUAL PERFORMANCE AND EVALUATION REPORT (CAPER) The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires that the City Council annually conduct a public hearing to allow for comments regarding the City’s Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). The CAPER is a federally-required annual review of the City’s progress toward meeting the objectives specified in the City's five-year Consolidated Plan for use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) funds. In May 2017, the City Council approved the Consolidated Plan for the period of July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2022. The Consolidated Plan provides the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with a comprehensive assessment of the City’s housing and community development needs and outlines the City’s priorities, objectives and strategies for the investment of CDBG and HOME funds to address these needs over the next five years. While the Consolidated Plan establishes objectives and strategies, the Annual Action Plan identifies the specific activities that will use CDBG and HOME funds to achieve certain outcomes related to the established objectives. During FY 2020-2021, the fourth year of the five-year cycle, the City received $793,614 in CDBG funds and $309,230 in HOME funds for a total formula grant allocation of $1,102,844. These funds were used to meet the Action Plan goals, including funding for fair housing and landlord-tenant mediation services, graffiti removal, code enforcement, commercial rehabilitation, and housing rehabilitation. CDBG and CDBG-CV funded activities are contributing significantly to the City’s progress toward meeting the high priority needs identified in the Consolidated Plan. CDBG funds are contributing to four of the six Strategic Plan goals including Fair Housing Services, Neighborhood Services, Economic Opportunity Program, and Affordable Housing Preservation and Access. The City’s residents faced new challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic including job loss, food insecurity, housing insecurity, and disruption to normal in-person public services. Nonetheless, the City staff continuously worked to deliver high quality services to residents throughout the duration of the stay-at-home orders. City Departments and its nonprofit subrecipients altered their program delivery models to promote social distancing while continuing to provide essential services to low- and moderate-income residents. There were a few activities that were not able to convert to a socially distanced delivery

model, such as housing and commercial rehabilitation activities that would require in-person contact with construction workers and homeowners. As a result, only three Home Improvement projects and no Commercial Rehabilitation projects were completed. The City is currently making progress to ensure these projects are completed during the 2021-2022 Program Year. In addition to the entitlement CDBG and HOME funds received by the City annually, the City received $935,242 of CDBG-CV funds to develop additional programs to address the challenges Paramount residents faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. HUD’s decision to almost double the size of Paramount’s HUD entitlement grant programs this year allowed the City to develop additional programs to better address the needs of low- and moderate-income residents. All the CDBG-CV activities will continue into the 2021-2022 Program Year. For more details on how the Strategic Plan goals were met, please refer to the attached summary. As a prerequisite to submitting the CAPER to HUD, a public hearing must be held to allow citizens an opportunity to comment on the draft CAPER. A public notice was published in the Press Telegram on August 20, 2021 to solicit public comments from interested citizens and to invite them to the City Council meeting if they wish to comment on this item. The draft CAPER was available for public review for a minimum period of 15 days from August 23, 2021 through September 7, 2021. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council conduct a public hearing to receive comments from citizens concerning the CAPER or the CDBG/HOME funded activities and receive and file the FY 2020-2021 CAPER.

Executive Summary

Every year the City of Paramount receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnership Grant Program (HOME) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The purpose of these funds is to assist the City in meeting the affordable housing and community development needs of its residents, particularly those of persons and families considered to have low- to moderate-incomes. This Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is the fourth CAPER of this planning cycle covering the period of July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021. It describes the City’s progress in meeting the goals and objectives outlined in the City’s Consolidated Plan. The City of Paramount worked towards meeting its one-year goals and is on track to meet most of its five-year goals as shown in the Table 1 below. The Fair Housing activity was under in meeting City’s expectations in terms of the number of people served by the Fair Housing Foundation to resolve landlord-tenant disputes and to handle fair housing discrimination claims this year as a result of the challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. The number of people served under the Graffiti Removal Program in the City’s low- and moderate-income census tract block groups is in-line with the originally expected number of overall people, but the overall number of eligible CDBG eligible cases fell under the anticipated goal. On the other hand, the LMA Residential Code Enforcement cases and SBA Commercial Code Enforcement cases exceeded the City’s expectation this year. Three (3) Home Improvement Program projects were completed during FY 2020-2021 despite disruption to “normal” in-person contact with contractors and homeowners. The prior year Commercial Rehabilitation project was not completed but will be awarded very soon and anticipated to be in construction before the end of the calendar year. One additional Commercial Rehabilitation project was under consideration but may be cancelled in FY 2021-2022. The City may consider reallocating funds from the Commercial Rehabilitation Program to a new Economic Development activity. Over the last few years, the City made significant progress in amending the five (5) zoning ordinances to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing Choice. One (1) of the impediments identified in the 2012-2016 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice was counted during FY 2017-2018, which included amending the Zoning Ordinance to permit “second units” by right in all residential zones subject to ministerial review and compliance with property standards. Three (3) more Zoning Ordinances were approved and adopted during FY 2018-2019, which included Residential Care Facilities, Siting of Emergency Shelters, and Siting of Transitional Housing. The remaining Siting of Single Room Occupancy Housing (SRO) impediment was approved July 2021 and therefore will be included as a 2020-2021 accomplishment. The CDBG-CV funded Emergency Rental and Mortgage Assistance Grant Programs provided 22 and 11 grants respectively to income-eligible tenants and homeowners economically impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic through job loss, furlough or

reduction in hours or pay, residing in the City of Paramount. A total of 24 businesses have been granted assistance under the Emergency Small Business Assistance Relief Grant Program to support businesses with payroll, rent, personal protective equipment, and other costs required to resume or expand business operations. The Homelessness Prevention Program was a resource available to Paramount residents that were experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. By utilizing problem-solving techniques, Family Promise of South Bay’s case managers will evaluate families and provide the appropriate resources such as shelter expenses, move-in assistance, motel/hotel stays, transportation expenses, employment readiness, educational material for financial literacy, and case management. The Homelessness Prevention Program will continue into the 2021-2022 program year. Given the emergency housing programs offered by the County and State, the City’s emergency rental and mortgage assistance programs saw a decline in interested applicants over the last several months. Therefore, the City may consider reallocating funds from the Emergency Rental and Mortgage Assistance Programs to the Emergency Small Business Assistance Relief Grant Program to provide additional grants to eligible businesses.

To: Honorable City Council

From: John Moreno, City Manager

By: Heidi Luce, City Clerk


Subject: ORDINANCE NO. 1153 – ELECTION DATE

Background

In December 2017, the City’s election date was changed to March of even years to coincide with the statewide primary election as a result of the requirements of Senate Bill 415 (SB 415) the California Voter Participation Rights Act.

SB 415, now codified as California Elections Code Sections 14050-14057, prohibits cities from holding a regular municipal election on any date other than a statewide election date if doing so resulted in voter turnout being at least 25% below the average voter turnout in that jurisdiction in the previous four statewide general elections. The public policy behind SB 415 was to address declining voter turnout in federal, state and municipal elections. The legislative analysis asserted that one major contributing factor to low voter turnout, the timing of elections, could be addressed by synchronizing municipal elections with statewide elections. At the time SB 415 was implemented, statewide elections dates were recognized to occur in November and June of even-numbered years.

Discussion

Statewide Primary Election Date Change

Senate Bill 970 (SB 970) Primary Election Date, changed the date of the statewide primary election to the first Tuesday after the first Monday in June of each even-numbered year that is not evenly divisible by four and the first Tuesday after the first Monday in March in each even-numbered year that is evenly divisible by four. This change was to address the delay in release of the 2020 Census data as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic which in-turn delayed the drawing of district lines. For cities that consolidate their elections with the statewide primary, the new election dates are as follows:

June 2022 March 2024 June 2026 March 2028

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 ORDINANCE NO. 1153 – ELECTION DATE Page 2

H:\CityManager\AGENDA\REPORTS\REPORTS 2021\Ord. No. 1153 Election Date_Introduction.docx; 8/31/2021 2:33 PM

Changes in the statewide primary election date are not uncommon. Below is a history of the presidential/statewide primary election date over the last 20 years:

2000 March 2004 March 2008 February 2012 June 2016 June 2020 March

Terms of Office To remedy an oversight in SB 970 which would have left several cites without a full City Council between March and June 2022, the legislature approved Senate Bill 590 (SB-590) in July of this year. SB 590 added Elections Code Section 1305 which states that any term of office set to expire in March or April 2022, where the next scheduled regular election for that office has been consolidated with the 2022 statewide primary election, shall be extended to expire following the certification of election results from the 2022 statewide primary election and the administration of the oath of office to the newly elected officeholder. This provision allows cities with March or April 2022 election dates to maintain a full City Council for the time period between the previous statewide primary election date and the new statewide primary election date. Proposed Ordinance The proposed ordinance simply changes the language of the City’s current election date ordinance to specify that the City’s elections will be held in even years to coincide with the statewide primary elections rather than specifying a particular month. Additionally, the terms of office for the two councilmembers set to expire in March 2022 (Guillen and Lemons) will be extended to June 2022. At this time, no other terms are affected. As for the future terms of office, at the time the election is called, the terms will be set for four years or to expire following the certification of election results from the related statewide primary election and the administration of the oath of office to the newly elected officeholder. Summary Recognizing that the City does not have control over the date of the statewide primary election, adoption of Ordinance 1153 will allow the City to align its municipal election with the statewide primary election, as originally intended, without having to adopt an updated ordinance if the statewide primary election is changed in the future.

WHEREAS, Senate Bill 590 chaptered on July 16, 2021 provides that any term of office set to expire in March or April 2022, where the next scheduled regular election for that office has been consolidated with the 2022 statewide primary election, shall be extended to expire following the certification of election results from the 2022 statewide primary election and the administration of the oath of office to the newly elected officeholder; and

To: Honorable City Council From: John Moreno, City Manager By: David Johnson, Community Services

Director Date: September 7, 2021

Subject: RESOLUTION NO. 21:028 APPROVING THE APPLICATION FOR OUTDOOR EQUITY GRANTS

PROGRAM FUNDS In October 2019, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 209 which created the Outdoor Equity Grants Program. Unlike previous competitive grants being offered from the California Parks and Recreation Office of Grants and Local Services, the Outdoor Equity Grants Program focuses on programming and not capital projects. The grant aims to increase the ability of residents in low income urban and rural communities to participate in outdoor experiences at State parks and other public lands. The Outdoor Equity Grants Program will provide approximately $57 million in competitive programming grants Statewide. The maximum grant amount is $700,000 and the minimum amount is $20,000. Agencies are able to submit multiple programming grant applications and there is no matching requirement; the entire cost of the program can be fully grant funded. Each grant is associated with a “home base” which will act as the meeting place for both enrichment related activities in the community and trips from the community to natural areas. The program is intended for children from Kindergarten to 12th grade but can also be multi-generational. We intend to apply for two separate grants; Spane Park Learning Center and the Mariposa Center would be our two “home bases”. The grant application is due October 8, 2021 and requires a resolution from the City Council approving the application as part of the grant submittal process. Attached is Resolution No. 21.028 that authorizes the submittal of our applications under the Outdoor Equity Grants Program. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council read by title only and adopt Resolution No. 21:028.



A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PARAMOUNT APPROVING THE APPLICATION FOR OUTDOOR EQUITY GRANTS PROGRAM FUNDS

WHEREAS, the State Department of Parks and Recreation has been delegated the responsibility by the Legislature of the State of California for the administration of the Outdoor Equity Grants Program, setting up necessary procedures governing the application; and WHEREAS, said procedures established by the State Department of Parks and Recreation require the Applicant to certify by resolution the approval of the application before submission of said application to the State; and WHEREAS, successful Applicants will enter into a contract with the State of California to complete the Grant Scope program. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PARAMOUNT AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. The above recitations are true and correct. SECTION 2. Approves the filing of an application for the Outdoor Equity Grants Program; and SECTION 3. Certifies that the said Applicant has or will have available, prior to

commencement of any work on the program(s) included in this application, the sufficient funds to complete the program(s); and

To: Honorable City Council From: John Moreno, City Manager By: Adriana Figueroa, Public Works Director Date: September 7, 2021

Subject: APPROVAL OF LANDSCAPING SERVICES BY BRIGHTVIEW

LANDSCAPE SERVICES FOR DROUGHT TOLERANT MEDIAN CONVERSION PROJECT (CITY PROJECT NO. 9236)

As part of the City’s ongoing work throughout its main arterials, included in this year’s adopted Capital Improvement Plan is $325,000 for the renovation of landscaped potable water medians along Somerset Boulevard, starting at the west City limit and continuing to the City’s east city limit. This project came in under budget and it also includes the medians at the intersection of Hunsaker Avenue and Myrrh Street, as well as, the setback areas on the south side of Somerset Boulevard, east and west of Rancho Cerona Drive. Improvements to the medians will be similar to the drought tolerant landscaping installed on Downey Avenue, Paramount Boulevard, Alondra Boulevard, and Rosecrans Avenue. The drought tolerant landscape replaces the median turf that died as a result of the Governor’s order banning the irrigation of turf on street medians unless it is done with reclaimed water. The proposed improvements to the medians will include removal of the existing dead turf and landscaping, installation of a drip irrigation system, and installation of drought tolerant plants consistent with the planting scheme used on the previously converted medians. BrightView Landscape Services, Inc., who currently is the City’s exclusive landscape maintenance contractor, provided a quote of $202,511.39. The City’s contract with BrightView allows for the addition of extra work. In an effort to maintain consistency in quality of landscaping and service, BrightView will be overseeing the project and making the improvements. According to the City’s purchasing policy, purchases of equipment or services in excess of $25,000 needs to be approved by the City Council. The installation of new landscaping is provided in our existing landscaping contract with BrightView and, therefore, does not require competitive bidding. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council approve the extra landscaping services for drought tolerant median conversion project by BrightView Landscape Services, Inc., Gardena, California, in the amount of $202,511.39.

Subject: APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AGREEMENT WITH AKM

CONSULTING ENGINEERS FOR CONTINUED CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT/INSPECTION SERVICES; AND AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AGREEMENT WITH BUCKNAM & ASSOCIATES FOR CONTINUED PROGRAM MANAGEMENT FOR WATER WELL 16

(CITY PROJECT NO. 9116) In May of 2020, the City Council approved agreements with AKM Consulting Engineers (AKM) and Bucknam & Associates to provide construction management/inspection services and program management, respectively for the Water Well 16 Project (Project No. 9116). In November 2020, Amendment No. 1 to Bucknam & Associates’ contract was approved, adding $38,000 to the original contract amount of $60,500 given unanticipated technical reviews that were necessary for the start of the project. As indicated back in November 2020, Bucknam & Associates is providing technical program management support to the City, similar to that of a City Engineer for construction projects. Their experience and expertise has been incredibly valuable to the project and has helped to keep the project moving forward. AKM provides construction management/inspection services for our Water Well 16 Project. Inspection during construction is critical for a water well project. There are many moving parts that require meticulous coordination and in some cases specialized water engineering services needed to be obtained. The contract amount for AKM’s services was $499,832. This was based on the assumption that construction observation was required through September 1st 2021. However, given delays with our construction contractor, that date has shifted to the end of November 2021. COVID played a significant role in that materials were delayed at various stages of the project. Additionally, construction management for this project required significant resources, more than what had been anticipated. Given this, staff is recommending Amendment No. 1 to AKM’s agreement to add an additional $189,785 to allow us to complete construction management and inspection services for this project, through the end of November. Similarly, Amendment No. 2 in the amount of $30,000 is needed for Bucknam and Associates to continue to provide technical program management support for this project given the additional support anticipated through the end of November 2021.

Subject: APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES BY

WILLDAN ENGINEERING FOR ALONDRA BOULEVARD CAPACITY ENHANCEMENT PROJECT (CITY PROJECT NO. 9136)

As identified in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Interstate 710 (I-710) Corridor Project, the anticipated 2035 traffic forecast on I-710 at Alondra Boulevard is projected to be operating at Level of Service (LOS) “F”; this means the area is expected to experience considerable delays. The Gateway Cities Transportation Strategic Plan Phase I, dated July 2012, incorporated principal arterials and I-710 capacity enhancement improvements to mitigate forecasted regional traffic congestion. The City of Paramount’s Alondra Boulevard segment from west city-limit to east city-limit is designated to obtain capacity enhancement projects in conjunction with the I-710 Corridor Project. In addition, the State Route 91 and Interstate 605 improvements are anticipated to impact Alondra Boulevard during and after construction. Thus, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) has authorized funding for the development of preliminary engineering for Alondra Boulevard capacity enhancements. In December of 2020, the City Council approved a funding agreement with Metro for the design and environmental clearance work for the Alondra Boulevard Capacity Enhancement Improvements Project from Hunsaker Avenue (west city-limit) to Lakewood Boulevard (east city-limit). Metro approved $4,600,000 for total design costs for the project which is intended to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion on Alondra Boulevard as part of the I-710, I-605, and SR 91 “Hot Spots” Interchange Program. The proposed capacity enhancement improvements consist of roadway and intersection widening, median modifications, parkway narrowing, undergrounding of existing overhead utilities, ADA sidewalk and curb ramp improvements, green streets improvements, and traffic signal modifications. The capacity enhancements will eliminate congestion caused by lane reductions and “bottle necks” and alleviate cut-through commuter traffic in residential neighborhoods. The proposed capacity enhancements consist of improved multi-modal functionality consistent with the City’s Complete Streets Policy. Pedestrian and bicycle circulation will improve along the Alondra Boulevard corridor by the elimination of architectural barriers such as existing power poles, steep driveway aprons and potential non-compliant curb ramps. Commuter and commercial traffic congestion will be mitigated by construction of additional right and left turn lanes at impacted intersections and additional weekday peak hour travel lanes: 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM westbound and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM eastbound.

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES Page 2

H:\PUBLIC WORKS\PWAGENDA\COMMON FILE\AGENDA RPT - APPROVAL 9136.DOCX 9/2/2021 11:16 AM

The increased roadway width will improve the line of sight for merging traffic and reduce traffic collisions. These proposed capacity enhancement improvements will preserve and maintain all existing overnight and weekend on-street parking. On January 28, 2021, at the request of the City, Willdan Engineering (Willdan) submitted a proposal (attached) for professional preliminary engineering design services for the Alondra Boulevard Capacity Enhancement Widening Project (Project) in the amount of $1,135,000. The remainder of the Metro grant funds will be allocated to the final engineering design and to Southern California Edison’s design to underground the overhead utility facilities. The undergrounding of the overhead utility facilities requires a feasibility and cost-benefit analysis, to be completed as part of the preliminary engineering design. Prior to commencing with the final engineering design, staff will present the results of the cost-benefit analysis to the SR-91/I-605/I-405 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Metro. Once the cost-benefit analysis is approved by TAC and Metro, staff will present a request to City Council for approval of the final engineering design proposal to prepare the final project Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E). Metro allows agencies to utilize their existing contracted engineering services firm to perform design services. Under the City’s purchasing policy, professional services, which often include highly specific areas of expertise, such as engineering, are not subject to the competitive bidding process requirement. However, purchases of equipment or services in excess of $25,000 require City Council approval. As Willdan Engineering is the City’s current contracted engineering firm and serves as the City Engineer, the City will utilize the existing services agreement with Willdan to provide preliminary and final engineering design services for the Project. This project is being entirely funded by Metro and no City general fund money will be expended on this project. Willdan is a nationally recognized engineering firm that is familiar with projects of this nature and magnitude, as well as, the overall needs of the Paramount community. Willdan has a team of qualified engineers and staff with many areas of expertise including traffic and civil engineering, environmental science, utility coordination, sustainability, landscape design, storm water quality, and Metro’s invoicing and reporting, among others. Willdan has been designing our annual street resurfacing projects and has also undertaken larger and more complex street modification projects such as the Garfield Avenue Widening Design, which includes coordination with Southern California Edison for the design of the undergrounding of overhead utilities. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council approve preliminary engineering design services by Willdan Engineering for Alondra Boulevard capacity enhancement project in the amount of $1,135,000 utilizing Metro funds.

January 28, 2021 Ms. Adriana Figueroa Director of Public Works City of Paramount 16400 Colorado Avenue Paramount, CA 90723 Subject: Proposal for Preliminary Engineering Services (Measure R Funding) for the Alondra Boulevard Improvements Project Dear Ms. Figueroa: Willdan Engineering (Willdan) is pleased to be given the opportunity to submit this proposal to provide preliminary engineering design, environmental documents, and cost-benefit analysis services for the Alondra Boulevard Improvements Project, from Hunsaker Avenue to Lakewood Boulevard, in the City of Paramount. The purpose of this project is to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion on Alondra Boulevard as part of the I-605/SR-91 “Hot Spots” Interchange Program funded by the State of California Measure R Program. Alondra Boulevard is a designated truck route that supports goods movement from the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. This project will increase roadway capacity by adding a third lane in each direction on Alondra Boulevard by reducing the median width and parkway width within the City’s right-of-way. In order to accommodate the roadway widening, existing overhead utility facilities located within the project right-of-way will be undergrounded. The undergrounding of the overhead utility facilities requires a feasibility and cost-benefit analysis, to be completed as part of the preliminary engineering phase. Prior to commencing with the final Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E), the City will present the results of the cost-benefit analysis to the SR-91/I-605/I-405 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Metro. Once the cost-benefit analysis is approved, staff will submit a design proposal to prepare the final project PS&E. Other project improvements include traffic signal improvements, LED street lighting, ADA enhancements, and green street improvements such as landscaped median islands, parkway trees, and stormwater retention. It is our understanding that the project includes the following proposed improvements: • Widen Alondra Boulevard to accommodate a third lane of travel in each direction.

The third lane will allow on-street parking during off-peak hours and will be used as the third travel lane during peak hours.

January 28, 2021 Page 2

• Due to the street widening, the project will include utility undergrounding of overhead distribution and transmission power poles. The utility undergrounding design will be performed and provided by Southern California Edison (SCE).

• Resurfacing of Alondra Boulevard with Asphalt-Rubber Hot Mix (ARHM) to prevent more serious and costly deterioration, which could lead to complete reconstruction.

• Reconstruction of existing concrete sidewalk, curb and gutter, and drive approaches.

• Construction of new catch basins due to proposed street widening.

• Installation of new access curb ramps in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. All newly installed access curb ramps will include truncated domes.

• Installation of streetscape improvements including new raised landscaped medians, modifications of existing medians, and parkway street trees.

• Installation of new irrigation system for median island landscape improvements.

• Installation of wet wells and inverted landscaped areas with drought resistant adaptive plants and low volume drip irrigation systems.

• Installation of traffic signal modifications including traffic signal poles, vehicle heads, pedestrian heads, detection, IISNS, conduit, controllers and service cabinets. The following is a list of the locations for the traffic signal modifications along Alondra Boulevard: 1. Hunsaker Avenue 2. Orange Avenue 3. Gundry Avenue 4. Garfield Avenue 5. Vermont Avenue 6. Paramount Boulevard 7. Georgia Avenue 8. Virginia Avenue 9. Downey Avenue 10. Lakewood Boulevard

• Installation of new LED streetlights along Alondra Boulevard.

• Installation of signing and striping.

7. Based on the City’s input and comments, revise the layout plan. ENVIRONMENTAL CEQA DOCUMENTATION Willdan will prepare an Initial Study (IS) based on either the City’s CEQA Checklist or the CEQA Guidelines Appendix G Checklist to assess the project’s environmental impacts. Based on our understanding of the proposed capacity enhancement and experience with similar projects, we anticipate that the appropriate CEQA document will be a Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration, depending on whether the IS identifies environmental impacts from project construction or operation that exceed adopted significance thresholds. Mitigation measures will be drafted as necessary to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels, although existing regulations may be sufficient to reduce project impacts to less than significant levels. Task 1 - Project Description: Willdan Engineering will provide the essential engineering/technical information that would serve as the basis for the project description and any alternatives evaluated for incorporation into the CEQA document. Willdan Engineering will prepare a draft copy of the project description as soon as the necessary information is available. The draft project description will be submitted to the City for review and comment. After resolution of the comments, and incorporation of changes as appropriate, Willdan Engineering will prepare the final project description for inclusion into the IS. Task 2 - Administrative Draft Initial Study: Willdan Engineering will prepare an administrative draft IS/MND in a narrative format that describes the environmental setting for the study area, summarizes the results of the technical studies (air quality, noise, greenhouse gases, traffic, cultural resources, etc.), identifies potential impacts resulting from the proposed project, and recommends mitigation measures as appropriate. Each issue area covered in the CEQA checklist will be evaluated at a suitable level of detail to fully address all potential impacts of the proposed project. The IS will only analyze the preferred roadway capacity enhancement alternative at a full level of detail. The IS/MND will rely in part on prior environmental analysis included in


the I-710 Corridor EIR/EIS, as well as other available analyses. An administrative draft IS will be submitted to the City for review and comment. We will also circulate the administrative draft IS to other responsible agencies, as deemed appropriate by the City. Task 3 - Public Draft Initial Study and Notice of Intent: After the City and other potential reviewing agencies complete their review of the administrative draft IS, Willdan Engineering will revise the document as required into a public draft IS, including proposed mitigation measures. Willdan Engineering will also prepare a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration. We will combine this document with the draft IS and begin public notification of the availability of the environmental document. In addition, we will complete the Notice of Completion (NOC) form on behalf of the City and upload the IS/MND to the State Clearinghouse CEQANET database. We recommend the City provide, at a minimum, a 30-day public comment period. Task 4 - Public Involvement: If requested by the City, Willdan Engineering will prepare for and attend one public hearing during the public comment period. The City will provide the site, advertising for the meeting, public address systems or other presentation equipment, equipment to accommodate persons with disabilities and necessary security and insurance for the meeting. Assuming comments warranting substantial revision or recirculation of the IS are not received, then Willdan Engineering will complete the following: Task 5 - Prepare Responses to Comments: After the close of the public comment period, Willdan Engineering will review the public and agency comments with the City and Willdan Engineering will compile and number all substantive comments and provide written responses for each enumerated comment. Willdan Engineering will provide the City with a draft set of responses to comments for review and approval. The draft IS/MND will become the final IS/MND and the final written responses to comments will be included as an appendix. Task 6 - Prepare Mitigation Monitoring Plan: A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP) will be prepared by Willdan Engineering that summarizes all of the project mitigation measures, the responsible parties for implementing each measure, and the timing for each measure. The MMRP would be included as an appendix to the final environmental document.


Task 7 - CEQA Coordination Willdan Engineering will coordinate all stages of the CEQA process with the City. CEQA approval, via adoption of a negative declaration with mitigation, would be obtained at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Planning Commission and/or City Council. CEQA requires that the lead agency file a Notice of Determination (NOD) with the County Clerk and with the State Office of Planning and Research Clearinghouse after deciding to approve a project for which a Negative Declaration has been adopted. Willdan Engineering will assist the City with preparing and filing the NOD. Deliverables:

Five (5) paper copies of the Administrative Draft IS Checklist One (1) electronic copy of the Administrative Draft IS Checklist Five (5) copies of the Draft IS Checklist One (1) electronic copy of the Draft IS Checklist Five (5) copies of the Final IS Checklist, MND and MMRP One (1) electronic copies of the Final IS Checklist MND and MMRP One (1) electronic copy of each technical study Willdan will assist with electronic filing the IS/MND with the State Clearinghouse on

CEQANET, as the Clearinghouse will no longer accept physical documentation, including CDs or thumb drives after November 3, 2020.

Meeting(s):

Attendance at one (1) project meeting to discuss comments on the Draft IS/MND Attendance at one (1) public hearing on the Draft IS/MND Task 8 - Technical Studies Technical studies required by the project will be prepared by Willdan personnel or technical subconsultants (Rincon Consultants) under contract to Willdan. We have identified what technical studies we believe are needed for this project, based on a preliminary assessment of project issues by Willdan. If it is determined in the course of preparing the Initial Study that additional technical studies will be required, Willdan will contact the City immediately and will describe the nature of the technical study needed and its cost. A mutually agreed-upon scope of work will be prepared with work on the study to commence only after the City’s approval. For now, the only technical studies we are proposing are listed below along with the identification of the technical subconsultant that will perform the study. Task 8.1 – Air Quality Impact Study Willdan Engineering will prepare the air quality analysis.


Existing Regulatory Environment. The existing environment will be described in terms of meteorology, local topography affecting pollutant dispersion, and ambient air monitoring data, as set forth in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) 2016 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP). A summary of current SCAQMD air management efforts related to the proposed project will be provided as well as the SCAQMD’s CEQA Handbook requirements for air quality assessments. Sensitive receptors within the project vicinity will be identified. Potential Impacts. The air quality impacts of the proposed project will be divided into short-term emissions from project construction and long-term impacts from project operation. Willdan will use the most recent version (v.9.0, May 2018) of the Roadway Construction Emissions model to estimate emissions. Short-term dust and emissions from construction activities will be forecasted and contrasted to regional and localized significance thresholds. Long-term emissions would be generated from increased traffic or vehicle speed along Alondra Boulevard. However, the project’s new road capacity is intended to reduce congestion, which results in reduced vehicle idling and associated emissions. These reductions cannot be precisely quantified, but we will provide a qualitative discussion of the potential for reduced air emissions. A carbon monoxide (CO) hot-spot analysis is not required at this time since the basin is currently in attainment/maintenance for CO. We will provide a narrative that documents that project-generated CO will not significantly affect the region’s attainment status. Mitigation Measures. Regulatory requirements and mitigation measures will be listed to reduce emissions as feasible to less-than-significant levels. Task 8.2 – Greenhouse Gases (GHG) Analysis Willdan Engineering will prepare the GHG analysis. Existing Regulatory Environment. The State of California considers GHG emissions to be significant factors affecting global climate change. Although no single project could generate enough GHG emissions to change global average temperatures appreciably, the combination of GHG emissions from past, present, and future projects is generally considered to contribute substantially to global climate change. Assessing GHG emissions is mandatory under CEQA. Current GHG regulations and guidance for determining environmental impact significance will be presented. The SCAQMD does not set a numeric significance threshold for GHG emissions except for stationary sources under its permitting authority. However, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) 2017 Scoping Plan sets forth a statewide target for reducing GHG emissions. Showing a project’s consistency with the Scoping Plan’s target


percentage reduction is one generally accepted method of determining whether that project’s GHG impacts are less than significant. Potential Impacts. Heavy equipment and workers’ vehicles will generate GHG emissions during construction. Project operation will also produce GHG emissions, particularly if the project results in a significant increase in daily trips. The Roadway Construction Emissions Model described above will be used to estimate GHG emissions. Mitigation Measures. Mitigation measures will be developed as necessary. If impacts are identified, feasible means of mitigating the significant effects of GHGs must be based on substantial evidence and subject to monitoring or reporting. Mitigation measures may include: (1) measures in an adopted Climate Action Plan or General Plan; (2) reductions resulting from project implementation including measures identified in Appendix F of the CEQA Guidelines; (3) off-site measures including carbon offsets; (4) greenhouse gas sequestration (e.g., planting trees or other plant material on or off-site); and (5) other measures that can be implemented at the project level. Task 8.3 – Noise Impact Study To address potential noise and vibration impacts associated with the proposed project, Rincon will conduct field surveys, modeling, and prepare an analysis. The noise analysis will include the following tasks: Measure existing noise levels at up to four (4) locations at, and near the project site.

Measurement locations will be selected to provide an understanding of the variability of ambient noise levels in the project area.

Conduct an analysis of construction activities to assess noise levels at adjacent properties, based on equipment types and operations provided by the client.

Estimate future vehicular traffic noise levels using the Federal Highway Administration Traffic Noise Model (FHWA TNM) acoustic algorithms. The traffic noise study will assess the noise generated by existing and future traffic focusing on the changes in noise levels along roadways affected by project. The results of the model will be expressed in community noise equivalent levels (CNEL).

Evaluate potential construction related vibration levels at nearby structures. Vibration levels will be calculated based on published vibration levels associated with identified equipment and standardized and vibration propagation calculations. In absence of a local threshold, vibration levels will be evaluated based on California Department of Transportation and the Federal Transit Authority’s guidance documents.

Should significant impacts be identified, appropriate noise reduction measures will be identified. The analysis will include the necessary barrier heights, operational restrictions, window and door requirements, or other mitigation options to reduce noise levels to standards set by the County.


Prepare a noise technical report that will contain the following information: (1) a brief project description; (2) an explanation of study methodology; (3) a discussion of the existing noise levels and local noise criteria; (4) a summary of noise impacts and, (5) an identification of mitigations measures, as necessary.

Mitigation Measures. Measures will be developed as required by CEQA and as indicated above to mitigate noise impacts. Task 8.4 – Traffic Study Willdan will prepare a Traffic Impact Study pursuant to CEQA guidelines. There has been a recent change in the CEQA guidelines with respect to measuring traffic impacts. This may impact the exact scope of work for the traffic impact study. The general scope of work of the CEQA Traffic Impact Study includes: A. Trip Generation for any fronting land uses that may not be currently developed to

General Plan standards. We will also account for existing trips that will be lost with the GP development. The net trips (GP trips – existing) would be considered “new” trips.

B. Trip Distribution of those trips associated with the “new” trips identified above. C. Trip Re-distribution of estimated trips affected by proposed closure of access to

minor streets and driveways with the development of the median along Alondra Boulevard.

D. Memo identifying no necessary need for VMT analysis for the Capacity enhancement project.

E. Level of Service Analysis Scenarios per CEQA including but not limited to: i. Existing ii. Existing + Project iii. Existing + Future Regional Growth + Cumulative Known Projects iv. Existing + Future Regional Growth + Cumulative Known Projects + Project v. Mitigation Measures as required

1. Mitigation measures could include operational improvements such as signal timing and coordination improvements.

F. Analysis to include: i. 10 signalized intersections, and ii. Up to 4 mid-block segments. Mid-block analysis will include an ADT analysis

with 3 lanes in each direction. iii. Determine where, if any, median openings will be provided for minor, non-

signalized intersections or major driveways. This may also require the analysis of traffic signal warrants for possible installation of a traffic signal.

iv. Review 3 years of accident data along Alondra Boulevard. This accident analysis may help to determine if a median opening at a minor, non-signalized intersection or major driveway is not recommended. The accident


analysis will also determine where the installation of the proposed median may reduce the number of accidents at a particular location.

v. Review high accident locations. vi. Review accident types. vii. Analyze the general impacts of the removal of parking during peak periods to

accommodate the raised median and 3 through lanes in both directions of Alondra Boulevard.

viii. Observe general on-street parking demand during peak periods. ix. Determine if off-street parking alternatives are available and/or viable. x. Determine the necessary left turn and right turn lane capacities/lengths at the

median openings with the redistributed trips and the “new” trips associated with General Plan build-out.

G. Prepare a DRAFT and FINAL traffic impact study report. Summary of this document into another report is not included in this scope of work.

H. Data collecting includes turning movement counts during the AM/PM peak hours for 10 intersections, ADT classification counts at four locations for mid-block analysis and a peak hour parking demand study.

Task 8.5 – Cultural Resources Assessment The project includes extensive excavation activities associated with the proposed undergrounding of utilities along the widened right-of-way. This necessitates the preparation of a cultural resources report for the project. A report will be prepared by Rincon Consultants that will provide a summary of existing conditions, background information, previous cultural resource reports, known cultural resources, conclusions, and recommendations. The report will include an assessment of potential archaeological sites and historical features within the project area, potential impacts to cultural resources as a result of excavation and construction activities, and recommendations for treatment of archaeological and historical resources as warranted. Subtask 1.1: Cultural Resources Records Search. Rincon will conduct a California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) records search of the project site and a 0.5-mile radius around the project site at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) located at California State University, Fullerton. The primary purpose of the records search is to identify any cultural resources known to exist on or adjacent to the project site. The records search will also reveal the nature and extent of any cultural resources work conducted in or near the project site. Subtask 1.2: Tribal Consultation. Under AB 52, the City, as the lead agency, is required to begin consultation with California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the project area prior to the release of a negative declaration, mitigated negative declaration, or environmental impact report. Under this task, Rincon will assist the City with consultation for AB 52 by providing the City with letter templates, checklists, and detailed instructions to ensure meaningful consultation with interested Native American


groups can be completed in accordance with AB 52. This task does not include costs for meetings, outreach, or additional consultation by Rincon. Additionally, this assistance does not include an assessment of impacts for a CEQA document. Rincon may request an AB 52 consultation list from the NAHC on behalf of the City should the City choose to request such a list from the NAHC. Subtask 1.3: Pedestrian Survey. Upon completion of the records search, Rincon will survey the project site for cultural resources. Based on current aerial imagery of the project site, the subject property is an active intersection and encompassed by development. A Rincon archaeologist will complete a mixed pedestrian and windshield survey with transects spaced no more than 10 meters apart, where appropriate. For the purposes of this proposal and cost estimate, Rincon assumes that the visit will be negative for cultural (archaeological, tribal cultural, or built environment) resources. Should any cultural resources be identified during the visit, a scope and budget augmentation will be requested for the formal recordation or record updating. No testing or excavation will be conducted, nor will any artifacts, samples, or specimens be collected during the survey. Subtask 1.4: Cultural Resources Assessment Report. Upon completion of the records search, Native American scoping, and cultural resources survey, Rincon will prepare a cultural resources assessment report. This report will document the results of the study, as well as provide management recommendations for cultural resources situated within or near the project site. The report will include figures depicting the area visited and studied for cultural resources. The report will be prepared according to the California Office of Historic Preservation’s Archaeological Resource Management Reports guidelines. An electronic draft copy of the report will be submitted for review. Upon acceptance of the final report, Rincon will provide an electronic copy to the SCCIC in accordance with their requirements. RECORDS RESEARCH AND FIELD REVIEWS 1. Research and review base data documents including as-built improvement plans,

traffic data, utility information, existing pavement section information, and other available record data.

2. Perform preliminary field reconnaissance, catalog photographs of typical and special

existing conditions. 3. Verify locations of street topographic features including manholes, water valves,

traffic striping, etc. 4. Review field conditions for ADA access curb ramps to establish preliminary type of

ramp required.


PRELIMINARY DESIGN (35% COMPLETION) 1. Develop base drawings:

a. Plot survey data. b. Identify and plot apparent substructures from utility information. c. Conduct field verification of survey data. d. Plot proposed street alignment and median island configuration based on

approved concept plans. 2. Prepare photographic view simulations of before and after – two (2) locations. 3. Develop preliminary title and detail sheets for the Alondra Boulevard Improvement

Project. 4. Develop preliminary civil plans for street widening, resurfacing and proposed median

island on Alondra Boulevard. 5. Prepare preliminary storm drain plans for relocation of existing catch basins due to

street widening. 6. Prepare preliminary landscape hardscape construction plans. 7. Prepare preliminary landscape irrigation plans. 8. Prepare preliminary landscape planting plans. 9. Prepare preliminary landscape construction detail plans. 10. Prepare preliminary traffic signal modifications including traffic signal poles, vehicle

heads, pedestrian heads, detection, IISNS, conduit, controllers and service cabinets. The following is a list of the locations for the traffic signal modifications along Alondra Boulevard:

1. Hunsaker Avenue 2. Orange Avenue 3. Gundry Avenue 4. Garfield Avenue 5. Vermont Avenue 6. Paramount Boulevard 7. Georgia Avenue 8. Virginia Avenue 9. Downey Avenue 10. Lakewood Boulevard


11. Prepare preliminary street lighting plans for Alondra Boulevard project limits. The

street lighting plans will need to be approved by the Los Angeles County Public Works (LACPW) – Traffic and Lighting Division prior to being sent to Southern California Edison (SCE) for design. The City of Paramount street lighting is part of a County of Los Angeles lighting district. Willdan will verify the existing lighting illuminance by performing a photometric analysis; recommend wattage changes if needed and review if LED fixtures will be permitted by SCE and LACPW lighting district for use on this project.

12. Prepare preliminary signing and striping modification plans for Alondra Boulevard. 13. Develop preliminary cost estimates. STORM WATER QUALITY Identify preliminary drainage/BMP structure improvements, based on hydrology, hydraulic calculations, and water quality issues. The scope of work will also include preliminary feasibility study, preparation of documentation needed to justify the proposed facilities, and BMPs to reach the green street limits established by the City of Paramount. We understand that the City is looking at the feasibility of incorporating the new medians with a depressed profile rather than a mounded one. The City can also consider the use of Filterra tree well systems to remove the heavy metals and other sediment driven pollutants. UTILITY COORDINATION 1. Submit notification to affected agencies and utility companies of proposed project.

2. Submit copies of the preliminary plans to affected utilities and agencies.

3. Coordinate with utility companies to implement upgrade of its facilities, as needed,

within the project limit. COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS FOR UNDERGROUNDING OVERHEAD UTILITY FACILTIES 1. Meet with key project team members to review the scope, schedule, and goals and

refine as appropriate.

2. Work with the project team to refine the identified alternatives and identify any additional alternatives or sub alternatives for the analysis.

3. Gather data on the cost and benefits of undergrounding the electrical utilities. This will include estimates of construction of the new underground lines, ongoing


maintenance and related costs, and an analysis of the benefits, both direct and indirect. We will also review the implications for the design and cost of the overall capacity enhancement project, as appropriate.

4. Gather data on the costs and benefits of relocating the electrical utility lines. This will include the costs of constructing new lines, costs of acquisition of necessary right of way, and related costs such as safety and reliability issues from the presences of physical lines and poles near the lanes of traffic. We will also review the implications for the design and cost of the overall capacity enhancement project, as appropriate.

5. Provide benefits comparison. A key component of the analysis will be a comparison of the relative implications of each alternative. Because the electrical lines and its related components, such as poles, are away from the public and the weather, undergrounding potentially offers a range of safety and reliability advantages that will be evaluated. On the on the other hand, underground utilities can be more difficult to maintain and repair due to more difficult access. We will evaluate these factors and compare them.

6. Compile data and analysis into a cost benefit analysis report. The report will document all data, assumptions, and conclusions regarding the benefits and costs of the alternatives and the comparison between them. The report will also identify any additional steps that may be necessary to inform the selection of an alternative.

7. Attend meetings with the team, stakeholders, related parties, and the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), as well as presentations and discussions of results. This scope includes four meetings.

UTILITY UNDERGROUNDING COORDINATION 1. Coordinate with SCE for the utility undergrounding of overhead distribution and

transmission power poles. 2. Coordinate with other agencies for the utility undergrounding of their overhead utility

facilities. METRO INVOICING AND REPORTING 1. Organize and prepare copies of paid invoices and canceled checks for quarterly

reimbursement invoicing submittals to Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro).

2. Draft Quarterly Expenditure Reports (MOU Attachment D2) for City review; submit to

Metro on behalf of City.


3. Assist City with final Reports and post-phase audit process. 4. Serve as City liaison with Metro for ongoing resolution of issues regarding Report

submittals and invoice processing. SCHEDULE Willdan will provide the above scope of services for preliminary engineering services within one year of the Notice-to-Proceed with design. FEE Our proposed lump sum fee for the above scope of services is as follows:

To: Honorable City Council From: John Moreno, City Manager By: Andrew Vialpando, Assistant City Manager Date: September 7, 2021

Subject: RESOLUTION NO. 21:027 AMENDING THE CITY’S PERSONNEL MANUAL TO ESTABLISH A

RECRUITMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM FOR NEW HIRES Background As of April 2021, a record 9.3 million jobs were unfilled nationwide as the economy starts to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, the City of Paramount is encountering a highly competitive job market that has resulted in a shortage of qualified candidates for many of its positions, predominantly among its part-time vacancies. Recruitment and talent acquisition is a very important aspect in the field of Human Resources and organizational development. Traditionally, public agencies have relied on comparing themselves to other similar organizations to analyze benefits and salaries in order to attract quality employees. Although staff is currently examining the City’s compensation for part-time employees to address the State’s recent minimum wage law, relying solely on salary adjustments can be problematic because salaries are dependent on available budget and may not fully commensurate with private sector market counterparts. As the labor market becomes more competitive, more organizations are beginning to adopt recruitment incentive programs to remain competitive and attract talent. The Section on Compensation, Market Competition in the City’s Personnel Manual (Policy) states that in addition to reviewing salary compensation, “the City also evaluates its market competitiveness based on data from the most recent compensation information collected from the compensation survey, and on data about the City turnover and recruitment success.” As part of our ongoing efforts to evaluate our market competitiveness to attract talented employees, staff is recommending a series of recruitment incentive programs to meet demand. The Recruitment Incentive Program will enable the City to compete in a highly competitive labor market by providing attractive allurements for new hires when the City has determined that a classification will likely to be difficult to fill in the absence of such an incentive.

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:027 RECRUITMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM Page 2 The following proposed Recruitment Incentive Program will only apply to new employees upon hiring, and therefore are not subject to negotiations or meet and confer with the City’s represented employees. Salary Step Placement It is industry standard to assign compensation for new employees depending on qualifications (DOQ) and experience, as long as the salary is within the salary schedule adopted each year by the City Council. Amending the City Policy to address compensation based on qualifications within the salary range for new hires does not impact the Adopted FY 22 budget, as vacant positions are already approved, and salaries will not exceed the adopted salary ranges listed in the salary schedule. This amendment also reflects current practice. As a result, this matter is simply a ministerial amendment to the policy. Staff recommends adding the following language to the City’s Policy on Compensation: “The City Manager may appoint new employees upon hiring at a salary step anywhere within the Salary Range for that classification, based on the qualifications and experience of the new employee.” Vacation Accruals When recruiting seasoned and highly qualified talent, many candidates are hesitant to leave their current employer for number of reasons, including having to reset the rate at which they accrue vacation leave with a new employer. Currently, employees accrue vacation leave based on years of service, starting at 80 hours (two weeks) per year for the first five years of service, 120 hours (three weeks) per year after five years of service, and 160 hours (four weeks) per year after ten years of service. If a new hire leaves an organization where they had been working for over ten years accruing 160 hours per year, they would reset back to 80 hours if they accepted a position with the City. When hiring highly qualified and experienced employees to fill highly skilled or managerial positions, this issue becomes significant. Staff recommends adding the following language to the City’s Policy on Vacation: “Upon hiring, new employees with prior public service may request to be placed in a higher vacation accrual schedule, not to exceed currently adopted maximum levels, based on the years of service at their most recent employer, at a year-for-year transfer rate, at the discretion of the City Manager.” Executive Leave The City currently offers 40 hours of executive leave for executive staff members, consisting of the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Department Directors, and City Clerk. Executive Leave is not an accrued benefit and may not be carried-over beyond the end of the last day June. Executive leave is a “use it or lose it” benefit based on the payroll

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:027 RECRUITMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM Page 3 fiscal year. The full 40 hours are available to use as soon as he/she is appointed. Upon separation from the City, executive leave is not paid out, and therefore does not have an impact on the City’s adopted budget. Staff recommends adding the following language to the City’s Policy on Executive Leave: “Upon hiring, the City Manager may provide new Executive Staff employees up to an additional twenty (20) hours of Executive Leave, one time, beyond the standard forty (40) hours, not to exceed a total of sixty (60) hours for the first Fiscal Year. Additional Executive Leave beyond forty (40) hours is not allowed beyond the first Fiscal Year of employment.” Telecommuting for Baby Bonding Although not limited to only newly hired employees, the Work from Home (Telecommuting) Section in the City Policy will be updated to clearly identify that eligible uses for Telecommuting include baby bonding. Listing baby bonding and other eligible Telecommuting uses in the City Policy may incentivize potential candidates to come to Paramount, and reinforce the positive benefit for current employees. This provision does not expand or change the current Policy, does not impact the City budget, and is within the City Manager’s personnel authority, and therefore is not subject to approval by the City Council. Hiring Bonuses for Part-Time Recruitments Generally, compensation for public sector part-time positions tends to trail comparable positions in the private sector. As mentioned above, despite active examination of the City’s compensation for part-time employees, salary adjustments alone are dependent on available budget and may not fully commensurate with comparable jobs in the private sector. As the labor market becomes more competitive, more organizations are beginning to adopt creative incentives to compete for and attract talent. Hiring bonuses can be a useful tool for employers because they represent a one-time cost and can be implemented on an as-needed basis depending on labor supply and demand, and the City’s available budget. For example, the Community Services Department is currently trying to fill between 20 to 30 positions for its Success Through Academics and Recreation (STAR) program, but labor supply cannot meet our demand. Moreover, STAR instructor positions struggle to compete with other high-paying jobs and result in high turnover. Consequently, STAR classrooms are experiencing low enrollment and many students waitlisted as staff struggles to recruit STAR instructors. The Public Works Department is experiencing the same situation with its Maintenance Aide vacancies. Staff is recommending a Hiring Bonus Incentive Program for new part-time employees. The hiring bonus will be a non-base salary cash payment intended to make the hiring offer market-competitive and to assist in securing the candidate’s acceptance of the offer.

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:027 RECRUITMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM Page 4 To offset any negative fiscal impact to the adopted FY 22 Budget, staff will submit a mid-year budget adjustment to reallocate existing funds from anticipated savings in the Administrative Services Department towards a new line item called Hiring Bonuses within the Human Resources Division budget for general funded part-time recruitments. The amount would be $10,000 and is based on the number of part-time vacancies and on-going recruitments for non-grant/non-restricted positions. The Hiring Bonus Incentive Program will be incorporated into the City’s Policy, but reassessed each Fiscal Year to take into account available funds and labor market trends. Staff recommends adding a Recruitment Incentive Program, Hiring Bonus Incentive Section to the City’s Policy:

The Hiring Bonus Incentive Program for part-time employees will be a non-base salary cash payment intended to make the hiring offer market-competitive and to assist in securing the candidate’s acceptance of the offer. The Program will be reassessed each Fiscal Year to take into account available budget and labor market trends.

A. Eligibility To be eligible for a hiring bonus, a candidate for a part-time position must meet all the following eligibility conditions. Eligibility is restricted to: 1. Qualified external candidates who are offered employment for the

benefit of the City. 2. Candidates who are not currently employed by the City, and who have

not been employed by the City during the 12 month period preceding the proposed rehire date.

3. Candidates for positions regarded by the City Manager as being difficult to fill despite extensive recruiting efforts (e.g., labor market shortages, aggressive growth in compensation levels for particular positions).

B. Bonus Amounts If the candidate meets the eligibility criteria, the hiring bonus amounts should be determined based on the difficulty in filling the position after prolonged and extensive recruitment efforts to attract market-competitive candidates. The total hiring bonus amount cannot exceed a maximum of $500 for general funded part-time employees. For grant-funded and other positions using restricted funds (i.e. STAR), hiring bonus amount cannot exceed limits established by grant guidelines or law.

Agenda Report September 7, 2021 RESOLUTION NO. 21:027 RECRUITMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM Page 5

C. Payment Provisions Granting of a hiring bonus is at the sole discretion of the City Manager. Any hiring bonus amount granted along with payment provisions shall be detailed in the candidate’s offer letter. The hiring bonus payments are payable in a lump sum payment after a period of three (3) to six (6) months of employment, determined by the City Manager at the start of the recruitment. If a recipient separates from City prior to the period determined by the City Manager, the payment will be forfeited. D. Funding Sources Hiring bonus payments, if approved, are funded by the City and are subject to the availability of funds. E. Tax Treatment and Reporting Under Internal Revenue Service Regulations, payment of a hiring bonus must be included in the employee’s income as wages subject to withholding in the year paid for federal and state income taxes and applicable FICA taxes. The payment is reportable on the employee’s Form W-2 in the year paid.

RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the City Council read by title only and adopt Resolution No. 21:027.
