Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 1 BASIC CITY COUNCIL MEETING RULES

AGENDAS - The City Council meets Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 A.M. The agendas for City Council meetings contain a brief general description of those items to be considered at the meetings. Council Agendas are available in the Office of the City Clerk, Council and Public Services Division, Room 395, City Hall, 200 North Spring Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012, and on the City's website at lacity.org ; or lacouncilcalendar.com

Ten (10) members of the Council constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The Council may consider an item not listed on the agenda only if it is determined by a two-thirds (10) vote that the need for action arose after the posting of an Agenda. Some items on the agenda may be approved without any discussion, however, any item may be called "special" by a Councilmember. If an item is called "special" it will be "held" until the remainder of the items on the Council agenda have been acted on by the Council. An item may also be called "special" if a member of the public has requested to speak on the item and a public hearing was not previously held.

The City Clerk will announce the items to be considered by the Council, however items will be grouped. For example, all items for which required public hearings have not previously been held are listed in one section on the printed agenda. The Council President will ask if any Councilmember or member or the public wishes to speak on one or more of these items. If anyone wishes to speak on an item, it will be called "special". The remaining items in this section will be voted on by Council with one roll call vote.

PUBLIC INPUT AT CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS - An opportunity for the public to address the Council on agenda items for which public hearings have not been held will be provided at the time the item is considered. Members of the public who wish to speak on any item (a cumulative time of five (5) minutes) are requested to complete a speaker card for each item they wish to address, and present the completed card(s) to the Sergeant-At-Arms. Speaker cards are available at the back of the Council Chamber.

The Council will also provide an opportunity for the public to speak on public interest items for a cumulative total of up to fifteen (15) minutes. Testimony shall be limited in content to matters which are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Council. The City Council may not take any action on matters discussed during the public testimony period.

If you wish to provide documents to the full Council for consideration on an item, please present the Sergeant-At-Arms with 35 copies. Otherwise, your materials will simply be added to the official record.

COUNCIL DISCUSSION AND TIME LIMITS - Councilmembers requesting to address the Council will be recognized by the Council President in the order requested. For any item, the Chairperson of the Committee, or the maker of the original motion, or the member calling a matter "special" shall have up to six (6) minutes to discuss the item. All other Councilmembers may speak up to three (3) minutes each on the matter. After all members desiring to speak on a question have had an opportunity to be heard once, the time for each Member desiring to speak again shall be limited to a maximum of three (3) minutes.

A motion calling the "previous question" may be introduced by any member during a Council debate. If adopted, this motion will terminate debate on a matter and the Chair will instruct the Clerk to call the roll on the matter.

VOTING AND DISPOSITION OF ITEMS - Most items require a majority vote of the entire membership of the Council (8 members). Items which have not been discussed in a Council Committee and have been placed directly on the agenda will require 10 votes to consider. Once considered, these items will normally require eight (8) affirmative votes to be adopted. Ordinances require a unanimous vote (at least 12 members must be present) in order to be adopted on first consideration. If an ordinance does not receive the necessary unanimous vote, it is laid over one calendar week. The votes required for approval on second consideration vary and depend upon the type of ordinance, but a typical ordinance requires eight (8) affirmative votes upon second consideration.

When debate on an item is completed, the Chair will instruct the Clerk to "call the roll". Every member present must vote for or against each item; abstentions are not permitted. The Clerk will announce the votes on each item. Any member of Council may move to "reconsider" any vote on any item on the agenda, except to adjourn, suspend the Rules, or where an intervening event has deprived the Council of jurisdiction, providing that said member originally voted on the prevailing side of the item. The motion to "reconsider" shall only be in order once during the meeting, and once during the next regular meeting. The member requesting reconsideration shall identify for all members present the agenda number, Council file number and subject matter previously voted upon. A motion to reconsider is not debatable and shall require an affirmative vote of eight (8) members of the Council.

When the Council has failed by sufficient votes to approve or reject an item, and has not lost jurisdiction over the matter, or has not caused it to be continued beyond the next regular meeting, the item is continued to the next regular meeting for the purpose of allowing the Council to again vote on the matter.

The City Council rules provide that all items adopted by the Council will not be presented to the Mayor, or other designated officer by the City Clerk until the adjournment of the regular Council meeting following the date of the Council action. A motion to send an item "forthwith" if adopted by ten (10) votes, suspends these rules and requires the City Clerk to forward the matter to the Mayor, or other officer, without delay.

RULE 16 MOTIONS - Council Rule No. 16, in part, allows a member to send an item directly to the Council without it having to go to a Council Committee first, by giving the City Clerk a motion (seconded by an additional member) during a Council session to be placed on the next regular available Council agenda.

2.

3.

Fiscal Impact Statement : The City Administrative Officer reports that approval of Resolution 15-047 authorizes a process to legally acquire certain parcels of land; however, it does not result in an additional fiscal impact. Funding of up to $22 million from the Power Revenue Fund was previously approved for land acquisition and associated costs, by ordinance, under a separate request by the LADWP Board of Commissions (Resolution No. 14-098) and authorized by the Mayor and City Council (Council File No. 13- 1562). The appraised value of the parcels to be acquired through this proposed process totals approximately $233,975. The proposed resolution complies with the LADWP's adopted Financial Policies. There is no impact to the City's General Fund.

(Energy and Environment Committee waived consideration of the above matter)

BOARD LETTER APPROVAL

DAVID H. WIG RANDY S. H ARD Chief Administrat Officer Senior Assista General Ma ager Power System i\N MARCIE L. EDWARDS General Manager

DATE: September 15, 2014

SUBJECT: Barren Ridge Renewables Transmission Project(BRRTP) Public.Hearing and Adoption of Resolution of Necessity Authorizing Commencement of Eminent Domain Proceedings to Acquire 44 Parcels of Real Property in the Vicinity Northeast of Mojave and South of the Barren Ridge Switching Station (BRSS) in Kern County, California

SUMMARY

The public hearing and adoption of the attached proposed Resolution of Necessity will authorize the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power(LADWP) to acquire by eminent domain 44 parcels of real property (Properties) in the vicinity northeast of Mojave and south of the BRSS in Kern County, California for the BRRTP. BRRTP is the construction of new high voltage transmission lines from the BRSS (north of Mojave, California) to the Rinaldi Substation and continuing from the Castaic Power Plant to the Haskell Switching Station. The BRRTP will provide access to clean, renewable energy resources in the Tehachapi Mountains and Mojave Desert areas of Southern California and is crucial for meeting the City of Los Angeles'(City of LA) Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS).

LADWP presented offers to the owners of the Properties beginning in June 2014, but has not been able to reach negotiated purchases of the Properties. LADWP staff recommends proceeding with acquisition through eminent domain (the power to acquire private property for public purposes) because the Properties are necessary for the construction of the BRRTP. If the Board of Water and Power Commissioners (Board) adopts the proposed Resolution, LADWP will continue to negotiate voluntary purchases. The attached Resolution of Necessity documents the findings that are required to authorize the initiation of eminent domain.

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 22 LADWP's acquisition agents have made numerous contacts with all but 13 of the parcel owners. Efforts to locate these 13 parcel owners have been made without success. By statute, each parcel owner may obtain an appraisal at LADWP's expense (up to $5,000). LADWP has also offered parcel owners a Document Acceleration Payment to expedite execution of the purchase and sale agreement. The Properties are vacant and do not contain any buildings or occupied structures.

City Council approval is required by Charter Section 675(d)(1).

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board:

1. Hold a public hearing on the proposed Resolution of Necessity. 2. Consider and find the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR)for the BRRTP certified on September 18, 2012, along with the adopted mitigation measures provides adequate environmental review of the BRRTP pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). 3. Adopt the Resolution of Necessity making findings and authorizing the commencement of eminent domain actions to acquire the Properties for the BRRTP. 4. Request that the City Council approve the Resolution of Necessity and authorize the exercise of eminent domain to acquire the Properties.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED

As required by law, LADWP made written offers to the owners of record of the Properties in amounts not less than the appraised fair market values. LADWP retained acquisition agents and has been successful in reaching voluntary agreements with 78 of the 122 owners of the parcels in the segment from BRSS to Aqueduct City. To date, however, LADWP has not been able to reach agreements with the owners of the Properties. LADWP and its agents will continue to negotiate voluntary purchases of the Properties, but if we are unable to reach agreements with the owners, LADWP should initiate the eminent domain process to acquire the Properties to complete the BRRTP as approved and on budget and on schedule.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Funding for the acquisition of all the properties necessary for the BRRTP, including legal and transaction costs, is budgeted for $22 Million.

BACKGROUND

The BRRTP is essential for meeting LADWP's RPS goal of achieving a renewable energy mandate of 33 percent by the year 2020. The BRRTP will deliver power generated by wind and solar resources from the Tehachapi Mountains, Mojave Desert, and Owens Valley to the Los Angeles Basin.

September 15, 2014 Page 2 3933539.1 -- N500.14

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 23 The Project would be located in Los Angeles and Kern Counties, and would consist of: expanding the existing BRSS; constructing a new switching station in Haskell Canyon; constructing 61 miles of a new 230 kilovolt (kV) double-circuit transmission line from the BRSS to Haskell Canyon; reconductoring 76 miles of the existing Barren Ridge — Rinaldi (BR-RIN) 230 kV transmission line with larger-capacity conductors between the BRSS and the Rinaldi Substation; and adding 12 miles of a new 230 kV circuit from Haskell Canyon to the Castaic Power Plant. LADWP must acquire the Properties for the construction of the BRRTP as they are located directly in the alignment of the approved BRRTP. The properties addressed in this proposed Board action comprise the first segment of the BRSS with additional proposed eminent domain. Board actions anticipated.

Eminent Domain Process

The City of LA, acting by and through its LADWP, may acquire property by eminent domain for public use and electric supply purposes, both within and outside of its jurisdictional boundaries, in accordance with California Government Code Section 37350.5, Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1240.010 and 1240.125; Public Utilities Code Sections 10001 and 10004, and Los Angeles City Charter Section 675.

As required by Government Code Section 7267.2, written offers, based upon the approved appraisals, were presented to the owners of record of the Properties. While LADWP,through its acquisition consultants, has continued to negotiate with the owners to reach voluntary purchases, to date, LADWP has not been able to reach negotiated agreements with the owners of the Properties. Thus, the exercise of eminent domain would be necessary to acquire the Properties needed for the BRRTP in a timely manner to meet LADWP's RPS mandates.

In accordance with California Eminent Domain Law, LADWP mailed notices of this hearing to the owners of the Properties informing them of their right to appear and to be heard on the following issues:

1. Whether the public interest and necessity require the BRRTP. 2. Whether the BRRTP is planned or located in the manner that will be most compatible with the greatest public good and the least private injury. 3. Whether the subject parcel(s) is/are necessary for the BRRTP. 4. Whether either the offer(s) required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code has/have been made to the owner or owners of record, or the offer(s) has/have not been made because the owner(s) cannot be located with reasonable diligence. 5. Whether the requisite environmental review of the BRRTP has been completed consistent with CEQA.

After the Board has held the public hearing, the Board must consider the certified Final EIR and decide whether to adopt the proposed Resolution of Necessity to acquire the Properties by eminent domain. In order to adopt the Resolution of Necessity, the Board must consider the testimony and evidence (including the information set forth in this

September 15, 2014 Page 3 3933539.1 -- N500.14

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 24 Board Letter), and by a vote of two-thirds of its governing body, find and determine that the factors listed in items 1 through 5 above exist. Adoption of the Resolution of Necessity by the Board and approval by City Council will authorize LADWP's legal counsel to pursue legal action to acquire the Properties by eminent domain including seeking prejudgment possession of the Properties through a court order.

1. The Public Interest and Necessity Require the BRRTP

The BRRTP will be located in Los Angeles and Kern Counties, and will consist of: expanding the existing BRSS; constructing a new switching station in Haskell Canyon; constructing 61 miles of a new 230 kV double-circuit transmission line from the BRSS to Haskell Canyon; reconductoring 76 miles of the existing Barren Ridge Rinaldi (BR-RIN) 230 kV transmission line with larger-capacity conductors between the BRSS and the Rinaldi Substation; and adding 12 miles of a new 230 kV circuit from Haskell Canyon to the Castaic Power Plant.

LADWP's purpose and need for the BRRTP along with the objectives are to:

• Allow interconnection and expansion of LADWP's renewable energy in the Tehachapi Mountains and Mojave Desert areas. • Reduce the environmental impacts associated with greenhouse gas emissions and create a more sustainable environment. • Assist LADWP in meeting RPS goals. • Meet LADWP's future electrical energy demands. • Increase LADWP's system reliability and flexibility in the utilization of renewable energy sources. • Enable the delivery of renewable energy.

2. The BRRTP is Planned or Located in the Manner That Will be Most Compatible With the Greatest Public Good and the Least Private Injury

The LADWP, United States Forest Service, and United States Bureau of Land Management prepared a joint Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)/EIR for the proposed BRRTP. Public participation was included in the environmental review process. The Draft EIS/EIR was released for a 60-day public comment period beginning on August 26, 2011, and ending on October 25, 2011. The document was made available online, and at numerous repository sites. The EIR included an analysis of three route alternatives for the BRRTP plus the "no action alternative."

The Final EIS/EIR (Released August 2012) contains comments and written responses to comments on the Draft EIS/EIR. LADWP certified the Final EIR and approved the BRRTP selecting and adopting the Alternative 2 route at its Board meeting on September 18, 2012. The Alternative 2 route, which includes the Properties, was selected because it contains all project components within a single utility corridor within the Angeles National Forest(ANF) and the immediate surrounding communities, which would limit the impact footprint of the BRRTP.

September 15, 2014 Page 4 3933539.1 --N500.14

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 25 Alternative 2 consolidates all project components next to existing LADWP facilities, minimizing ongoing operation and maintenance impacts. The consolidation of facilities will allow LADWP to utilize the existing network of access roads, resulting in the least ground disturbing impacts among the action alternatives. Alternative 2, as adopted, is the shortest transmission line alignment at 61 miles long. Alternative 2 consists of three Segments: A, B, and G. Segment A is from the BRSS to north of Mojave and is common to the 3 Action Alternatives. Segment B is from Mojave to Lancaster, and Segment G is from Lancaster through Elizabeth Lake and Green Valley to the proposed Haskell Canyon Switching Station.

3. The Properties Described in the Resolution are Necessary for the BRRTP

The Properties are essential parts of the approximately 200-foot wide corridor of the adopted Alternative 2 project route that runs 61 miles from BRSS to the Haskell Canyon Switching Station, and parallels the LADWP's existing BR-RIN 230 kV and 500 kV Pacific Direct Current Intertie Transmission Lines for most of its existing alignment. The corridor provides spacing needed to maintain and protect three contiguous and parallel high voltage transmission line circuits.

The transmission lines include towers, conductors and ancillary equipment. Erection and maintenance of towers will require subsurface foundations and grounding devices. Ground, surface and overhead access will be necessary to construct, operate and maintain the towers, conductors and ancillary equipment. The LADWP historically has acquired the fee interest for transmission lines. Fee acquisition (purchase) of these Properties is necessary to provide continuous, uninterrupted legal access to ensure safe and reliable operation of the transmission lines. Purchase of these properties also ensures the control and preservation of the rights necessary for future maintenance and continuous operation of our facilities without interference by any outside parties. On occasion, access may be granted to adjacent owners and public entities to ensure that vehicle access and traffic circulation can be maintained.

4. The Offers Required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code Were Made to the Owners of Record, or the Offers Have not Been Made to Certain Owners Because the Owners Could not be Located With Reasonable Diligence

LADWP staff has taken the following required actions for each of the Properties:

• Obtained appraisals from California Licensed General Real Estate Appraisers to determine the Fair Market Value (FMV)of the Properties. • Reviewed and approved the appraisals to establish the just compensation (purchase) offer amount. • Determined the owners of the Properties and their interests therein by examining title reports for the Properties and searching County Assessor's Records, when needed.

September 15, 2014 Page 5 3933539.1 -- N500.14

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 26 • Sent written offers via certified mail, accompanied by an appraisal summary statement, to the owners of record of the Properties for the full amount of just compensation, which was not less than the approved appraised value.

D. PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY EVALUATION

The City of Los Angeles is very concerned if a new request to sell alcohol is subject to one of the conditions below. There is a strong likelihood that the City will deny your "public convenience or necessity" application if one of the above listed conditions apply to your site. (It is strongly suggested that you contact your Council Office and discuss your project. If the Council Office does not oppose your project, you should then check with your local area police vice unit as well as the Planning Department Public Counter at(213) 977-6083 for the determination of whether the proposed site is within a Specific Plan area, and the Community Redevelopment Agency(CRA) project staff at(213) 977-1682 or 977-1665, to determine if your site is in a CRA Project Area. If any of the five conditions listed below apply to your site, you should carefully consider if you want to file for a Public Convenience or Necessity finding.

1. The proposed site is in an area with a long-term level of undue concentration of alcoholic beverage outlets.

2. The geographic area is the target of special law enforcement activity, i.e., police task force is working on reducing vice in the area, or eliminating juvenile crime (such as cruising or graffiti) or gang activity.

3. The proposed site is in close proximity to sensitive uses, including schools, parks, churches, youth activities, homeless shelters, mental health or alcohol or drug treatment centers.

4. The geographic area has elevated levels of alcohol-related crimes, including but not limited to: public intoxication, driving under the influence, assault, vandalism, prostitution, drug violations, loitering.

5. The proposed site is located in a Specific Plan or Community Redevelopment Agency Project area which specifically includes a policy to control future alcoholic beverage sales.

E. If the project site is not subject to one of the above criteria, your project will be evaluated by the City Council with consideration given to the following possible benefits and detriments to the community:

1. Possible Benefits

Would the business:

a. Employ local residents (how many) b. Generate taxes (provide estimate) c. Provide unique goods and services (which ones) d. Result in an aesthetic upgrade to the neighborhood (in what exact way) e. Contribute to the long term economic development(how) f. Provide a beneficial cultural/entertainment outlet (specify)

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 95 Page 5 of 6

2. Possible Detrimental Impacts

Is the immediate area in which the license is sought subject to: (Check with your local Police Department area "Senior Lead Officer")

a. Excessive calls to the Police Department b. Police resources being already strained c. High rates of alcohoIism, homelessness, etc. d. Large "youth"(under 21) population

3. With regard to the operation of the proposed business explain:

a. The method of business operation: (large volume of alcohol to food sales, "late" hours (after midnight), high % unskilled (no ABC training class) staff, high % of underage (under 21) staff, etc.)

b. Would the business duplicate a nearby business already in existence?

c. Other non-alcohol sales business options available so alcohol does not have to be sold, e.g., more specialty products, broader range of items like fresh meats or fruits and vegetables, etc.

The City Council will evaluate these factors and make a decision on the overall merits of your request. Therefore, you should answer below as to why you believe any of these above listed beneficial or detrimental conditions apply to your project and provide any documented pro1 f to support your belief:** k\---(-tkrc liNR,e

From: Miguel A. Santana, City Administrative Office~~

Reference: Board of Police Commissioners Transmittal dated July 15, 2014

Subject: NARCOTICS ANALYSIS LABORATORY TRUST FUND (NAL TF) EXPENDITURE PLAN N0.17

SUMMARY

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) requests approval of the Narcotics Analysis Laboratory Trust Fund (NAL TF) Expenditure Plan No. 17. This expenditure plan covers narcotics casework overtime and laboratory equipment totaling $424,800 to be funded in 2014-15. Funds are available and the items covered in the plan are considered eligible uses of the NALTF.

Section 11372.5 of the California Health and Safety Code provides for the courts to collect a fee of $50 at the time of a controlled substance related conviction to reimburse law enforcement laboratories for costs incidental to analysis of controlled substances. The funds must be used to support the laboratories and historically the City has used these funds for LAPD staff overtime and training and the purchase of laboratory equipment for the LAPD Scientific Investigation Division (SID) personnel. Los Angeles Administrative Code Section 5.115.2 creates the NALTF and requires that the Mayor and Council approve an expenditure plan prior to the disbursement of the funds.

Over the last five years, the Mayor and Council have authorized expenditures of approximately $1 .6 million from the NALTF. The Fund received $267,000 in fee revenue in 2013-14. The balance in the Fund as of June 30, 2014 was $1.23 million, of which approximately $500,000 is programmed for prior-approved plans and $424,800 will be programmed for Expenditure Plan No. 17. The remaining balance, along with revenue received in 2014-15 .and beyond, will be programmed into future Expenditure Plans.

The LAPD proposes to use $120,000 in overtime for staff to complete narcotics casework, $85,000 to pay for toxicology analysis performed by the Los Angeles County Department of Coroner, and $219,800 for laboratory equipment and information technology hardware and software. Additional details are provided in the Board of Police Commissioners report dated July 15, 2014.

OFFICE OF THE CITY ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Date: September 4, 2014 CAO File No. 0130-01756-1573 Council File No. 12-0014-S24 Council District: -- To: The City Council

From: Miguel A. Santana, City Administrative Officer /

Reference: Attorney Conflicts Panel

Subject: REQUEST TO INCREASE FUNDING FOR ATTORNEY CONFLICTS PANEL CONTRACT WITH THE LAW FIRM OF BYRNE & NIXON FOR REPRESENTATION IN AMERICAN WITH DISABILITIES ACT COMPLIANCE MATTERS AS RELATED TO THE FORMER COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF LOS ANGELES (CRA/LA), A DESIGNATED LOCAL AUTHORITY

SUMMARY

The Office of the City Administrative Officer (CAO) requests authority to amend an existing legal services contract agreement under the Attorney Conflicts Panel (ACP) program with the law firm of Byrne & Nixon (B&N) to increase funding by an additional $3,875,000 for a revised contract cumulative total of $6,325,000. The proposed funding is based on the following: 1) incurred billing of $1,335,000; 2) projected funding needs of $1,340,000, as provided by B&N, for the period of September through December 2014; and, 3) an additional $1,200,000, as projected by the CAO, for funding needs from January through June 2015. The CAO projection is a forecast based upon an average of prior monthly costs of $200,000.

The law firm of B&N was retained to represent the City of Los Angeles in four inter-related matters concerning alleged American with Disabilities Act (ADA) non-compliance violations at certain affordable housing units as to the former Community Redevelopment Agency of Los Angeles, now known as the CRA/LA, a Designated Local Authority and the Successor agency to the former Agency. The law firm of B&N was selected through a formal Request for Proposal process on the basis of specialized expertise and experience in complex business law and federal prosecution

The four inter-related matters include an audit by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), a federal investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), and two civil lawsuits, Mei Ling v. City of Los Angeles, Case No. CV11-7774 and Independent Living Center of Southern California, et al. v. City of Los Angeles, et al. (ILCSC), Case No. CV12-0551. These are completely conflicted matters which preclude the City Attorney's Office from handling and involve complexities and circumstances, not, typical pf an Attorney Conflicts Panel case assignment, and with high liability exposure to the'City.

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 103 CAO File No. PAGE 0130-01756-1573 2

The HUD audit and the DOJ federal investigation were initially prompted by allegations made in the Mei Ling law suit. In November 2012, motion arguments by B&N led to a favorable Court decision for the City and a dismissal of the Mei Ling case. The matter is currently being appealed by Mei Ling. The HUD and DOJ matters are currently engaged in ongoing discussions, negotiations and related measures for achieving a comprehensive resolution.

The ILCSC litigation is a class action lawsuit and continues to be the most contentious and the most costly of the four assignments. A litigation status report will be provided under separate cover for "closed session" discussion.

Lastly, the Attachment to this report provides further summary of the B&N contract, as follows: Table 1: Contract and Amendment history; Table 2: Contract Appropriations and Expenditures; and, Table 3: Proposed Allocation of the Funding Request of $3,875,000. The majority of the proposed funding is to be allocated to the ILCSC matter.

RECOMMENDATIONS

That the City Council, subject to the approval of the Mayor:

1. Authorize the City Administrative Officer, or its designee, to execute a fourth contract amendment to Contract No. C-121063 with the law firm of Byrne & Nixon, and to encumber funds totaling $3,875,000 from the Attorney Conflicts Panel Fund No. 46T, Department 10, for a revised contract cumulative total of $6,325,000, subject to the review of the City Attorney;

2. Authorize the City Administrative Officer, or its designee, to make any technical adjustments needed to implement the intent of the Mayor and Council action, and authorize the Controller to implement those instructions.

FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT

The proposed contract amendment is in compliance with City Financial Policies. The recommendations in this report may have an impact on the General Fund. The proposed contract amendment, in combination with other Attorney Conflicts Panel contracts, may require additional funds for the ACP Fund No. 46T to fund the necessary expenses this fiscal year. The CAO will report on the Fund Balance in future Financial Status Reports.

0670-00033-0001

Date: July 2, 2014

To: The Mayor The Council

From: Miguel A. Santana, City Administrative Officer

Subject: RESULTS FROM THE 2014 TAX AND REVENUE ANTICIPATION NOTES TRANSACTION (C.F. 14-0600-S242)

On June 26, 2014, the City sold $1.369 billion of tax and revenue anticipation notes ("TRAN") with a June 2015 maturity at a yield of 0.11 percent, the lowest ever achieved by the City to alleviate short-term cash flow needs and to pre-pay the two pension systems. The pre-payment of the City's pension contributions allows the City to receive a $35 million discount from the pension systems.

Prior to the sale of the notes, this Office conducted an aggressive marketing outreach program by meeting with 15 investors to discuss the financial health and position of the City. Investor outreach is a critical component as it provides context to investors regarding the City's local economy, budget performance, fiscal management, and challenges. The City's continued investor outreach efforts have proved successful as the City received orders from 16 investors, including three investors who had never previously participated in past transactions. The investor presentation is attached (Attachment 1).

Earlier this month, the City received the highest short-term ratings from the three main credit rating agencies. Fitch Ratings ("Fitch") assigned a `F1+' rating. Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") assigned a 'MIG 1' rating. Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") assigned a `SP-1+' rating. The rating reports are attached (Attachment 2).

Fitch assigned the City's TRAN the highest rating due to "a sound note repayment structure, good coverage of the notes' maturity, substantial available and borrowable funds, and the City's overall credit quality." Fitch recognized the City's increasing general fund balance and reserves (8.4% of General Fund revenues) and meeting its capital improvement and reserve fund polices. According to Fitch, "The City has demonstrated that it can implement significant actions to respond to economic contraction and its personnel-related expenditure pressures, and management retains a range of budget options to achieve greater structural balance." However, Fitch is sensitive to the significant liabilities of the City such as increasing pension contributions despite recent pension reforms, banked overtime accrued by police officers, and large potential general fund liabilities related to litigation.

In addition, Fitch also affirmed the City's general obligation bonds at ÀA-`, judgment obligation bonds at À+', Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los Angeles (MICLA) lease revenue bonds and certificates of participation at À+', and the Los Angeles

Convention and Exhibition Center Authority lease revenue bonds at `A+' with a stable rating outlook.

Moody's stated that the City's strengths are an "exceptionally large, diverse economy that continues to grow economically sensitive receipts, stable cash operations, reasonable cash-flow projections, and a history of closely and accurately managed cash-flow results." Some of the challenges Moody's listed are the City's relatively late final set-aside timing that is one month before note maturity, weaker than typical year-end cash level, and a high borrowing amount as a percentage of receipts. According to Moody's, the rating could move down if there is a "significant deterioration of the City's projected year-end cash position" and "inability or unwillingness to make offsetting mid-year budget adjustments".

S&P assigned the City's TRAN the highest rating due to the general credit worthiness of the City, good-to-strong coverage on repayment amounts, and a history of relatively accurate cash-flow projections. In addition, S&P noted that the City's General Fund Balance is strong based on its Fiscal Year 2012-13 audited figures.

The TRAN financing team is comprised of Montague DeRose & Associates, LLC and Acacia Financial Group, Inc. (WBE) as Co-Financial Advisors, Hawkins, Delafield & Wood, LLP (LBE) as Note Counsel, Kutak Rock LLP (LBE) as Special Tax Counsel, and Nixon Peabody (LBE) as Disclosure Counsel. The underwriting team comprised of Ramirez & Co., Inc. as Senior Manager (LBE/MBE), Stifel, Nicolaus & Company as Co-Senior Manager (LBE), and Citigroup Capital Markets Inc. as Co-Manager (LBE).

FITCH RATES LOS ANGELES, CA 2014 TRANS Tl-P, AFFIRMS OUTSTANDING BONDS

Fitch Ratings-San Francisco-11 June 2014: Fitch Ratings has assigned an 'F 1+' rating to the following:

--$1.36 billion Los Angeles (city), California 2014 tax and revenue anticipation notes (TRANs or notes).

The notes will be sold via negotiation on June 26, 2014. They are not subject to redemption prior to final maturity.

In addition, Fitch affirms the following rating:

--$991.9 million outstanding Los Angeles general obligation (GO) bonds at 'AA-'; --$44.6 million outstanding Los Angeles judgment obligation bonds, series 2009-A and 2010-A at 'A+'; --$1.362 billion outstanding Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los Angeles (MICLA) refunding certificates of participation (COPs; refunding program AY), series 2005, and lease revenue bonds, series 2006-A, 2007-A, 2007-B1, 2007-B2, 2008-A, 2008-B, 2009-A, 2009-B, 2009-C, 2009-D, 2009-E, 2010-A, 2010-B, 2010-C, 2010-D, 2012-A, 2012-B, and 2012-C at 'A+'; --$303.1 million outstanding Los Angeles Convention and Exhibition Center Authority (convention center authority) lease revenue bonds, series 2003A and 2008A at 'A+'.

The Rating Outlook is Stable.

SECURITY

The notes are secured by a first lien and charge against unrestricted general fund revenues attributable to fiscal 2015. To the extent that these moneys are insufficient to repay the notes in full at their maturity, the notes are repayable from any other legally available unrestricted moneys.

The GO bonds are secured by ad valorem property taxes levied without limitation on rate or amount upon taxable properties within the city. The judgment obligation bonds are secured by the city's absolute and unconditional obligation to pay principal and interest to refund an obligation imposed by law.

The MICLA COPs and lease revenue bonds, and convention center authority lease revenue bonds, are secured solely by the city's covenant to budget and appropriate lease rental payments for use and occupancy of various facilities and equipment.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

CITY'S INHERENT ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE: The city is the commercial and cultural center of a very large, diverse economy that is benefitting from revenue and property market improvements, despite an unemployment rate which remains stubbornly high.

BUDGETARY STRUCTURAL IMBALANCE: The city's four-year financial projections indicate decreasing structural imbalance, but some of the underlying assumptions rely on further labor concessions and static levels of service provision which will likely prove difficult to achieve.

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 131 CHALLENGING POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT: The city's challenging political and labor environment can hinder its ability to respond swiftly to budgetary pressures. Labor will likely be reluctant to agree to further concessions, and the public's desire for service restorations could create spending pressure.

MANAGEABLE DEBT: Fitch expects the city's debt ratios to remain moderate, but notes the increasing pension and other post-employment benefit (OPEB) costs resulting from past investment losses and the liabilities associated with both banked police overtime and litigation.

STRONG SHORT-TERM DEBT COVERAGE: Fitch's highest short-term rating of 'F1+' on the notes reflects the sound repayment structure and good coverage of note repayment, particularly when sizable liquid borrowable funds are considered.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

The rating is sensitive to shifts in fundamental credit characteristics, including the city's strong financial management practices and ongoing efforts to reduce its general fund structural imbalance.

CREDIT PROFILE

Los Angeles is an important economy and by virtue of its size and diversity is well positioned to benefit from the current national economic recovery. The city is experiencing good revenue and property base growth which is expected to continue into fiscal 2015 and beyond. The tax base proved to be resilient during the recession, and considerable property development currently underway should bolster future taxable valuation growth.

While the unemployment rate remains stubbornly high at 9.7% in March 2014, it is better than a year prior (11%) and the July 2010 peak of 14.7%. The city's socioeconomic characteristics remain somewhat mixed, as would be expected for such a large urban area. The recent Los Angeles 2020 Commission report focused particularly on a net decline in non-farm job employment over the past decade, poor job creation, significant income inequality, and lower educational metrics.

FINANCIAL OPERATIONS STILL UNDER PRESSURE

Despite an initial significant budget gap, fiscal 2013 ended with a strengthened unrestricted general fund balance of $609.8 million (13% of spending), up 12.8% from the year prior and the third year in a row to end with a net operating surplus after transfers.

In fiscal 2014, the city faced an initial general fund gap of $216 million and a smaller $37 million mid-year budget gap, the majority of which will likely be closed at year-end through use of reserves and savings. The city expects to end fiscal 2014 with a similar or larger unrestricted general fund balance than in fiscal 2013, well above the 5% reserve policy.

The city is projecting that at year-end its emergency reserve ($133.8 million), contingency reserve ($212.9 million), and budget stabilization fund ($61.9 million) will cumulatiyely amount to 8.4% of fiscal 2014's general fund revenues, up from 5.2% in fiscal 2013. This strengthening of general fund balance and reserves is despite 60% of civilian employees refusing to give up an already agreed- to 5.5% pay increase on Jan. 1, 2014 on the grounds that the increase was negotiated in return for already implemented labor concessions.

To close a further, larger budget gap of $433 million in fiscal 2015, the city again plans to rely on a mixture of recurring solutions (57%) and non-recurring solutions (43%). However, unfunded budget components which could pressure budget balance during fiscal 2015 are related to public safety labor costs, an ambulance augmentation program, and street resurfacing and repairs. Nevertheless, the city

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 132 has budgeted to meet or exceed its policy goal of devoting 1% of general fund expenditures to capital improvement projects for the second consecutive year, as well as maintaining its cumulative reserves above the 5% policy level.

The city is projecting decreasing general fund budget gaps in fiscal years 2016-2018 and then, for the first time since 2009, a general fund budget surplus of nearly $24 million in fiscal 2019. Some of the underlying assumptions appear reasonable (for example, ongoing steady revenue improvement and no significant workforce growth). Fitch considers, however, that in a stronger economic environment it will be challenging for the city to ask employees to contribute more to benefits while offering no cost of living adjustments to pay. Sworn personnel are likely to seek remuneration increases, and residents are also likely to expect service restorations as the economy improves.

The city has demonstrated that it can implement significant actions to respond to economic contraction and its personnel-related expenditure pressures, and management retains a range of budget options to achieve greater structural balance. However, implementing them will require difficult political decisions and greater political unity than has always been demonstrated in the past, further labor concessions (difficult in light of those already achieved), and new revenues. The failure of a May 2013 ballot measure to increase the sales tax rate indicates that new tax revenues will be hard to achieve.

STRONG NOTE REPAYMENT STRUCTURE

Fitch's highest short-term rating of 'F 1+' reflects a sound note repayment structure, good coverage of the notes' maturity, substantial available and borrowable funds, and the city's overall credit quality. Fitch notes this TRANs borrowing is 2.9% higher than the city's fiscal 2013 TRANs borrowing, primarily to accommodate the city's intent to prepay its growing pension payments for both civilian personnel ($403.2 million) and sworn personnel ($616 million) to achieve savings of approximately $35 million. In addition, this TRANs borrowing will provide $344.3 million for cash flow management purposes.

The city makes five 20% set-asides of principal and interest on Jan. 21, Feb. 25, March 25, April 23, and May 22, 2015. Therefore, 100% of principal and interest will be set aside more than a month ahead of the June 25, 2015 note maturity date.

The city expects general fund ending cash balances to provide full debt service coverage of 1.87x to 2.25x on each set-aside date without drawing upon $261 million-$1.013 billion in borrowable funds available at those set-aside dates. Including borrowable funds increases coverage to 3.06x to 5.84x.

MODERATE OVERALL DEBT BURDEN

Net overall debt is moderate at $4,175 per capita and 3.6% of market valuation. Amortization of direct debt is rapid at nearly 73% in 10 years. Fitch expects that the overall debt burden to increase but remain manageable as the city issues additional new debt. Debt levels also could increase if the city funds potential adverse legal settlements through judgment bonds (as discussed below).

SIGNIFICANT LIABILITIES

For fiscal 2013, the city reported that its pension systems, the Los Angeles City Employees Retirement System (LACERS) and the Fire and Police Pension Plan (FPPP), were funded at 68.7% and 83.1% respectively. Using Fitch's more conservative 7% discount rate, the funded ratios were weaker, at 63.5% for LACERS and 76.8% for FPPP. Both pension systems have large unfunded actuarial accrued liabilities ($4.7 billion and $3 billion, respectively). The city's annual contributions to the two pension systems will continue to increase for some time despite recent pension reforms (such as the creation of new pension tiers for both sworn and civilian recruits).

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 133 Despite successful negotiations to cap retiree health benefit costs, the city's annual OPEB contributions will also continue to rise. LACERS' OPEB funded ratio was 71.9% in fiscal 2013, compared to a high of 78.6% in fiscal 2011. FPPP's OPEB prefunding ratio is a much weaker 38.5%. However, both these levels of prefunding remain notably high for municipal OPEB systems.

The city has considerable banked overtime accrued by police officers. The accrued 2.3 million hours are currently valued at $112 million. While the city intends to reduce this liability through managed leave, those hours which are not used for leave will have to be paid out when individual police officers resign or retire. This approach risks creating considerable future financial pressure since the stored hours will become more expensive as salaries increase over time. Therefore, Fitch notes as a credit positive the $15 million appropriated in fiscal 2014 to begin paying down the overtime bank. Conversely, the intended general fund budgets for police overtime in fiscal years 2015 and 2016 are significantly less than historical norms, suggesting that further overtime will need to be banked absent significant changes in the management of police overtime.

The city also has large potential general fund liabilities related to litigation. At June 30, 2013, the city had $771.5 million in probable general fund legal liabilities and a further approximately $500 million in pending general fund litigation. Major adverse settlements would likely be funded through judgment obligation bonds which would put additional strain on ongoing resources and boost debt levels.

In fiscal 2013, combined debt service payments, annually required pension contributions, and OPEB pay-as-you-go costs were a manageable 20.8% of total governmental fund expenditures.

Global Credit Research - 13 Jun 2014 Approximately $1.4 billion in debt affected

New York, June 13, 2014 -- Moody's Rating

Issue: 2014 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes; Rating: MIG 1; Sale Amount: $1,380,000,000; Expected Sale Date: 6/25/2014; Rating Description: Note: Tax and/or Revenue Anticipation Opinion

Moody's Investors Service has assigned a MIG 1 rating to the City of Los Angeles' 2014 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes in the approximate amount of $1.4 billion. RATINGS RATIONALE

The rating primarily reflects the reasonable budget assumptions underlying the city's cash flow projections; the city's stable, though modest projected year-end cash position; and the minimum, one-month cushion between the city's pledged final set-aside and the note maturity. The 2014 TRANS are general obligations of the city payable from unrestricted receipts received in or attributable to Fiscal 2015. Approximately 75% of the IRAN proceeds will be used to pre-pay the city's full, annual pension contribution at the beginning of the fiscal year and the remaining 25% of TRAN proceeds will be used for General Fund cash flow needs. Moody's rates the city's unlimited tax general obligation bonds Aa2 with a stable outlook. STRENGTHS

-Exceptionally large and diverse economy that continues to strengthen economically sensitive receipts -Stable cash operations

-Reasonable cashflow projections

-History of closely and accurately managed cashflow results CHALLENGES

-Relatively late final set-aside timing that is one month before note maturity -Weaker than typical year-end cash level

-High borrowing amount as a percentage of receipts WHAT COULD MOVE THE RATING UP -N/A

WHAT COULD MOVE THE RATING DOWN

- Significant deterioration of the city's projected year-end cash position

- Significant variances in receipts or disbursements and inability or unwillingness to make offsetting mid-year budget adjustments

The principal methodology used in this rating was Short-Term Cash Flow Notes published in April 2013. Please see the Credit Policy page on www.moodys.com for a copy of this methodology.

Credit Profile

US$1386.056 mil TRANs ser 2014 due 06/25/2015 Short Term Rating SP-1+ New

Rationale

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'SP-1+' short-term rating to Los Angeles, Calif.'s tax and revenue anticipation notes (TRANS) 2014. The series 2014 TRANs mature June 25, 2015.

The rating reflects our view of Los Angeles':

• General creditworthiness (AA-/Stable general obligation rating); • Good-to-strong coverage of TRAN repayment set asides and final maturity by projected available general fund cash balances; and • History of relatively accurate cash flow projections.

The notes are secured by available taxes, income, revenues, and other unrestricted funds that Los Angeles is to receive for the general fund by its fiscal year-end, June 30, 2015. We understand the city will deposit pledged revenue into the debt service fund in January 2015, February 2015, March 2015, April 2015, and May 2015 in an amount equal to 20% of principal and interest due on all series of TRANs. We understand that Los Angeles is issuing the notes to prepay its pension actuarially required contribution for fiscal 2015, as well as to manage uneven cash receipts and disbursements throughout the year.

We estimate Los Angeles' net general fund and pledged debt service fund cash balances after advance set-aside amounts, based on the city's projections and our assumptions below, provide the following good, 1.2x note principal and interest coverage at maturity.

We understand that the city can borrow money from its reserve fund throughout the fiscal year without city council approval; however, it is only permitted to borrow from special fund balances before the last Monday in April , which requires council approval. Including the projected cash from all available borrowable resources, coverage increases to 1.38x.

Los Angeles' projected cash flows for fiscal 2015 include a total 3.1% year-over-year assumed increase in cash receipts, net of IRAN proceeds. City officials report the cash flow assumptions are based on the fiscal 2015 adopted budget, which includes a 3.9% increase in property tax revenues based on the county assessor's assumptions. Sales taxes are also projected to increase by 4.6%. Other revenues are projected to increase by $136.5 million or 18.2% primarily due to the transfer of $117.5 million from its reserve funds. Los Angeles projects overall general fund cash disbursements, net of TRAN payments, in fiscal 2015 will increase 4.9% primarily due to rising pension and salary costs and general increases in costs of services.

1333500 I 301707811

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 141 Summary: Los Angeles; Note

The city has previously demonstrated historically conservative cash flow projections. Officials estimate actual fiscal 2014 ending cash will be $269 million, which would improve coverage to 1.5x, up from the projected 1.3x. According to the resolution, the city will invest note proceeds and the debt service fund in permitted investments within its general pooled investment fund but will account for them separately from other funds in the pool.

On a generally accepted accounting principles basis, Los Angeles' fiscal 2013 audit reflected a $152.9 million operating surplus after transfers to contribute to a $609.8 million available general fund balance, or about 13% of general fund expenditures, which we consider strong. In fiscal 2014, based on its mid-year numbers, city management estimates a $74 million increase in Los Angeles' combined emergency, budget stabilization and contingency general fund budgetary reserves to about $400.6 million, or about 8.2% of estimated expenditures at the end of the year. Last year, the city also passed a new policy that requires the set-aside of annual revenue growth exceeding 3.4% for certain major revenue categories into the budget stabilization fund (BSF). The city's fiscal 2014 projections show the deposit of $61 million into the BSF.

The fiscal 2015 budget solved an estimated $433 million budget gap primarily with $216 million in assumed ongoing revenue growth, as well as $186 million from one-time revenue, including the use of reserves built up from prior years. The budget also assumes $30 million in cost savings due to departmental efficiencies and cost reductions. The city also reduced its assumptions about police overtime costs being paid in the current year. However, the city has set aside $30 million in unappropriated general fund balance if savings are not achieved.

DISCUSSION

This report contains the specific financial adjustments recommended for Capital Improvement Expenditure Program (CIEP) or General Services Department (GSD) construction projects and for General Obligation Bond (GOB), Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los Angeles (MICLA), other Special Funds and various grant funded projects. .The following is a discussion regarding recommendations included in the report and is presented in two sections: Construction Projects and Bond Projects.

1. CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

The following are brief descriptions, by department, of budgetary adjustment recommendations included in this report for General Fund, Special Fund or MICLA financed projects.

A. Boyle Heights Neighborhood City Hall CIEP Attachment No. 1 Recommendation No. 1

An appropriation totaling $130,000 from CIEP funds to the GSD Building Maintenance Division is recommended for maintenance of the Boyle Heights Neighborhood City Hall also known as the Chicago Building.

The Chicago Building, a 33,573 square foot facility, has undergone major rehabilitation and seismic retrofit work over the last six years and was re-opened to the public during the 2013-14 fiscal year. There are multiple City departments and community organizations that provide services from this building. In the 2014-15 Budget, the Mayor and Council authorized CIEP funding in the amount of $130,000 to help maintain this facility. Council approval is now required to effectuate the transfer of these funds to GSD budgetary accounts. O&M Fiscal Impact: The annual impact for operations and maintenance of the facility is estimated at $312,886. Some of these expenses are offset by receipts form the special funded City entities and revenue from non-profit occupants of the building. The remaining fiscal impact of $130,000 will be offset with this transfer.

B. Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA) — Percent for the Arts CIEP Attachment No. 1 Recommendation No. 1

A transfer of $85,237 from CIEP funds to the Arts and Cultural Facilities and Services Trust Fund (Arts Fund) is recommended. Administrative Code Section 19.85 established a City-wide art program for the cultural benefit of the City. An amount equal to one percent of the total cost of all public works improvement projects undertaken by the City must be deposited into the Arts Fund. The funds are used by DCA to provide art programs throughout the City. Each year, the CIEP includes a line item for the Percent for the Arts program. Council approval is required to transfer $85,237, which represents the fee for Fiscal Year 2013-14 based on actual expenditures from the CIEP.

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 148 PAGE 4

D. Bureau of Engineering (BOE) — Barham/Cahuenga Corridor Transportation Improvements Phase IV Project Cancellation and Deobligation of Grant Funds Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA- 1999 Call for Projects) Recommendation No. 6

Cancellation and deobligation of Metro grant funds totaling $924,000 for the Barham/Cahuenga Corridor Transportation Improvement Phase IV Project due to significant project funding shortfall and schedule delays is recommended. The total approved project cost was $2,412,000 ($1,495,000 from a Metro Grant plus $917,000 from Proposition C Local Match). MTA is requiring that the City only deobligate remaining grant funds of $924,000.

In November 2007, BOE executed a funding agreement with MTA for this project. In order to implement this street widening project, it was necessary to encroach onto the existing abandoned Barham Boulevard off-ramps from the 101 Hollywood Freeway. As a result, several approvals were required by Caltrans. These included new traffic railing which required environmental and crash test clearances, State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) approval for any modifications to the existing historic site, and additional right of way at the Odin Street off-ramp to meet Caltrans' latest 65-foot truck turning radius standards. It was determined that these requirements would add costs significantly to the project's existing $3 million shortfall and add an extensive amount of delay to the schedule.

Therefore, BOE has concluded that due to the unexpected project scope changes and excessive increase in costs, the project is deemed unreasonable to pursue. In addition, Council District 4 has agreed that the costs have outweighed the public benefits and concurs with BOE's recommendation to cancel the project.

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 149 PAGE 5

Council approval is required to instruct BOE to submit documentation to officially request project cancellation and deobligation of grant funds totaling $924,000 from Caltrans. This notification will ensure that the City continues to be eligible to participate in upcoming MTA Call for Projects funding cycles. O&M Fiscal Impact: There is no associated impact to the General Fund since this is an administrative action.

E. BOE — Crescent Drive Bulkheads and Grading Special Gas Tax Improvement Fund (SGAS) Attachment No. 2 Recmmendation No. 2

A transfer of $309,417 from the Gas Tax Fund to the CIEP Crescent Drive Bulkheads project account is recommended. Council previously appropriated $820,000 for this project as part of the Year-end Financial Status Report and that action was deemed a matter of urgent necessity due to potential public safety risks (C.F. 13-0600-S156). Additional funds are needed to complete the work.

The Crescent Drive Bulkheads project will repair two washouts along an unimproved section of Crescent Drive. The washouts developed due to rainstorms in March 2014. This section of Crescent Drive provides the sole means of access to three residential properties. With the exception of the initial 160 feet of Crescent Drive, the majority of the street has been withdrawn from public use and consists of a single-lane unimproved dirt road, 10 feet to 20 feet wide, which extends approximately 1,600 feet west and southwest of where the improved portion of the street ends. The City Attorney has advised that even though the road was withdrawn from public use, the street has not been formally vacated by the City, and the City remains responsible for maintaining the street.

During the surveying process, it was discovered that additional bulkheads will be required to re-establish a minimum travel width of 12 feet to accommodate emergency vehicles. Based on the preliminary plans and estimate, a supplemental appropriation of $309,417 is needed to reestablish access for emergency vehicles.

Project completion is anticipated by March 2015. Council approval is required to transfer funds from the Gas Tax Fund to the CIEP, Crescent Drive Bulkheads project account. O&M Fiscal Impact: There is no General Fund impact for operations and maintenance as this is an existing infrastructure. F. BOE — Pacific View Drive Bulkhead Repair SGAS Attachment No. 3 Recommendation No. 3

A transfer of $150,000 within the Gas Tax Fund for the Pacific View Drive Bulkhead Repair project is recommended. Council has declared projects of this type a matter of urgent necessity as defined by Charter Section 371 (e)(5) due to potential public safety risks.

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 150 PAGE 6

This project will repair an existing bulkhead that is failing. The bulkhead is in urgent need of repair as the wooden lagging boards spanning between vertical steel piles have moved-outwards and are near collapse. This damage has resulted in a portion of the roadway being dislodged. The repair will include replacement of the existing lagging with new lagging of higher strength, and repaving the portion of damaged roadway.

Project completion is anticipated by December 2014. Council approval is required to transfer funds within the Gas Tax Fund into a new project account entitled, Pacific View Drive Bulkhead Repair. O&M Fiscal Impact: There is no General Fund impact for operations and maintenance as this is an existing facility.

G. BOE — San Fernando Mission Boulevard - Sepulveda to the Golden State Freeway Improvements Cancellation and Deobligation of Grant Funds Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA- 2001 Regional Surface Transportation Program- RSTP) Recommendation Nos. 7 and 8

Cancellation and deobligation of Metro grant funds totaling $1,532,000 for the San Fernando Mission Boulevard - Sepulveda to the Golden State Freeway Improvements due to significant project funding shortfall and schedule delays is recommended. The total approved project cost was $2,343,941 ($1,543,941 from MTA-RSTP plus $800,000 from Measure R Local Match). MTA is requiring that the City only deobligate remaining grant funds of $1,532,000.

In February 2011, BOE executed a funding agreement with MTA for this project with federal funds which required additional environmental studies and clearances to widen San Fernando Mission Boulevard between Sepulveda Boulevard and the Golden State Freeway. These requirements added significantly to the project's existing $2 million shortfall and created an extensive amount of delay to the schedule. Council District 7 has informed BOE that there was no longer support from the community for this project and requested that the project be canceled.

Therefore, BOE has concluded that due to the unexpected project scope changes and excessive increase in costs, the project is deemed unreasonable to pursue.

Council approval is required to instruct BOE to submit documentation to officially request project cancellation and deobligation of grant funds totaling $1,532,000 from Caltrans. This notification will ensure that the City continues to be eligible to participate in upcoming MTA Call for Projects funding cycles. O&M Fiscal Impact: There is no associated impact to the General Fund since this is an administrative action.

H. BOE — Sunset Boulevard Near Coronado Terrace to Waterloo Street — Phase 1 Remedial Slope Mitigation SGAS Attachment No. 3 Recommendation No. 3

Wednesday - October 8, 2014 - PAGE 151 PAGE 7

A transfer of $208,349 within the Gas Tax Fund is recommended for work on the Sunset Boulevard near Coronado Terrace project. Council previously appropriated $1,015,000 for this project as part of the 2011-12 Adopted Budget. The scope of the project consists of constructing a shotcrete soil-nail retaining wall to stabilize a barren and steep slope at Sunset Boulevard between Coronado Terrace and Waterloo Street within Council District 13.

This shotcrete soil-nail wall option was designated as the most feasible for this project. Because the slope was cut by the City at the time the original Sunset Boulevard was graded, according to the City Attorney's Office, the City has a responsibility to mitigate the safety hazard to the public way.

The project's current available balance of $864,060 is not sufficient to fund the higher than expected construction bids received on June 19, 2014 primarily due to the difficult steep slope site conditions. The lowest bid of $974,918 exceeds the construction budget plus 10 percent contingency by $208,349. This additional appropriation of $208,349 will increase the total project appropriations to $1,223,349 ($1,015,000 plus $208,349).

Project completion is anticipated by June 2018. Council approval is required to transfer funds within the Gas Tax Fund Contingency account into the Sunset Boulevard Near Coronado Terrace project account. O&M Fiscal Impact: There is no General Fund impact for operations and maintenance as this is existing infrastructure. I.

In August 2013, the Municipal Facilities Committee authorized a budget of $150,000 for this project. Since then, the landlord offered to perform portions of the approved scope of work. The remaining work includes replacing breakroom floors and patching and priming walls for paint or wall coverings. The revised estimate for this project is $113,548 and construction is expected to be completed by the end of September 2014. GSD processed a transfer of $48,702 to begin the work. Council approval is required to transfer the additional $64,846 within GSD's budgetary accounts. O&M Fiscal Impact: There is no additional General Fund impact for operation and maintenance since this is a leased facility.
