22. Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with Mayer Brown LLP for John Van de Kamp to Serve as
Independent Special Counsel to the City of Vernon
Recommendation
A. Find that approval of the agreement proposed in this staff report is exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), in accordance with CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3), the
general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a significant effect on the
environment; and
B. Approve Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with Mayer Brown LLP for John Van de Kamp to
serve as Independent Special Counsel to the City of Vernon for a period of one year, effective
February 16, 2016, at a not to exceed amount of $100,200, in substantially the same form as
presented herewith.
Gas and Electric Department
23. Second Amendment to Biomethane Transaction Confirmation by and between the City of Vernon
and Canton Renewables, LLC
A. Find that (a) the amendment to the Biomethane Transaction Confirmation between the City of
Vernon and Canton Renewables, LLC is not in reference to a “project” subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Guidelines Section 15378 because it involves the
administrative activity of purchasing Biomethane; and (b) even if this approval were a “project”
subject to CEQA, the approval requested is exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines
Section 15301(b), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on
the environment because purchasing Biomethane is purely a financial transaction, and any
construction that may occur by a private party in the future in reliance on this approval would be
subject to CEQA review by another governmental agency at that time when actual details of any
physical proposal would be more than speculative; and
B. Approve the amendment between the City of Vernon (the “City”) and Canton Renewables, LLC
(“Canton”), in substantially the same form as attached herewith, for the purpose of adding an
Option Section within the agreement that allows for the City to purchase renewable energy at the
most competitive price available in the market in-lieu of receiving Biomethane from Canton. With
this modification, Vernon Gas & Electric (“VG&E”) will potentially recognize significant cost
savings.
C. Authorize the Director of VG&E to execute the Second Amendment to the Biomethane
Transaction Confirmation by and between the City of Vernon and Canton.

24. Approval to Schedule the 2016 Electronic Waste (E-Waste) Recycling Event
Recommendation:
A. Find that because proposed one day waste collection event at the fire station is an action taken to
protect the environment and constitutes normal operations of the fire station, the activity is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines sections 15308 (actions taken to protect the environment), 15323 (normal operations of
public facilities) and 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have
an effect on the environment.
B. Approve the scheduling of the next City of Vernon E-Waste event for April 5, 2016, at Fire Station
#1 at 3375 Fruitland Ave., using the vendor Arion Global, Inc.
Public Works, Water and Development Services Department
25. Bid Award to Furnish and Deliver Two New 2016 Ford F-650, Regular Cab XL (F6D) Dump
Trucks, Contract No. CS-0645
Recommendation
A. Find that entering into the proposed purchase order contract to Furnish and Deliver Two New 2016
Ford F-650, Regular Cab XL (F6D) Dump Trucks is exempt under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA), because it is a continuing administrative activity and therefore not a “project”
as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15378. Even assuming such were a project, it would still
be exempt from CEQA review in accordance with (a) CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the
general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment; and
B. Accept the bid from Wondries Fleet Group and enter into a purchase order contract, in an amount
not to exceed $173,867.28, Contract No. CS-0645, to Furnish and Deliver Two New 2016 Ford
F-650, Regular Cab XL (F6D) Dump Trucks.

Recommendation
Approve a proclamation stating that the City of Vemon joins the Califomia State Board of
Equalization, Franchise Tax Board, Intemal Revenue Service, and Jerome E. Horton, Chairman
of the Califomia State Board of Equalization in advocating the Eamed Income Tax Credit and
the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program to qualified families and individuals.
Backsround
The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a subsidy provided to low-income working individuals
and households through a refundable tax credit. The refundable tax credit rates depend on the
recipient's income, marital status, and number of children. This year qualified taxpayers who
eam up to $53,267 may be eligible to receive a maximum of $6,242 in Eamed Income Tax
Credit. Each year, the EITC helps approximately 3.2 million individuals in Califomia and brings
more than $7.2 billion into Califomia's economy. Every year one million families who qualiff
for EITC fait to apply for the credit, representing a loss of Sl.8 billion in increased income for
local communities.
The Volunteer lncome Tax Assistance (VITA) Program is a program that provides free income
tax preparation to individuals and families with household incomes ofless than $54,000, persons
with disabilities, the elderly and limited English speaking taxpayers. VITA volunteers are

Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed action is exempt from California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) review because it is a continuing administrative activity that
will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and
therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines section
15378; and
B. Approve and adopt a resolution to appoint the City Administrator to serve as the
Municipal Employee Relations Representative.

20. Renewable Portfolio Standard Annual Status Report for Calendar Year 2015.

A. Find that the Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) Annual Status Report is exempt
from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review because, as a
continuing administrative activity, such is not a “project” as defined in CEQA
Guidelines Section 15378. And even if such activity were a “project,” it would be
exempt from CEQA review in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15307
and 15308 because the RPS activity managed by Vernon Gas & Electric is aligned
with regulatory provisions to maintain, restore, or enhance the environment; and
B. Acknowledge and file the annual Renewable Portfolio Standard Report for
Calendar Year 2015 as presented by the Vernon Gas & Electric Department. This
report is for informational purposes only. There is no fiscal impact.

would be exempt from CEQA review in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section
15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a
significant effect on the environment, because the agreement does not have an
impact; and

merely replaces older equipment and improves electric system efficiency and
reliability in Vernon; and
B. Approve the issuance of Notice Inviting Bids to qualified manufacturers and

23. Resolution No. 2016-02 - A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Vernon
affirming the appointment of Arnold Jesse Wilson to serve as the Interim City
Administrator and ratifying the execution of a related At-Will Employment
Agreement.
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the resolution is exempt from California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) review, because it is a general administrative activity that will
not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment and therefore
does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15378.
Furthermore, even if it were a project, because such activity will not have any effect
on the environment, this action would be exempt from CEQA review pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to
projects that may have a significant effect on the environment; and
B. Adopt the resolution affirming the appointment of Arnold Jesse Wilson to serve as
the Interim City Administrator of the City of Vernon effective January 11, 2016,
and ratifying the execution of a related temporary at-will employment agreement.

HEALTH & ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL DEPARTMENT
MONTHLY REPORT
DECEMBER,2015
HAZARDOUS MATERIAIS CONTROL
Hazardous materials activities in the month of December were fairly routine. Activities included
remediation reviews, regular inspections and oversight of closure and remedial projects such as
Thermador lndustries on District
-Blvd, Exide Technologies on Indiana Ave., Pechiney on Fruitland
Ave., Clorox Industries on Bandini Blvd., 2510 E. 376 Street, and 2801 E. 466 Street'
Director [ronard Grossberg worked on "Policy and Procedures" guidelines to improve Health
Department response to after-hours emergencies, and updated the emergency call-in list for
distribution for 201 rr-ort6.
Our staff responded to one emergency to assist the Vemon Fire Dept. in December, a sewage
overflow at 4-9th & Gifford. Quick response and assistance to the businesses in cleaning up and
remediating spills continues to be our priority, and it also helps the businesses to properly deal with
issues during a critical time.
I.]NDERGROUND TANKS
No significant UST activities were noted for the month of December. Routine annual monitoring
and re-testing (SB 989) continued at one Vemon permitted site (Dunn Edwards). One new Above
Ground Tank Plan Check has been submitted for review and is pending approval.
FOOD PROGRAM
ln December, staff completed inspections on a number of food facilities including retail, wholesale,
and food processing operations. During December, Environmental Specialist Erik Cheng responded
to a restaurant operating without potable water and issued a'tlosure" notice. The facility was able
to re-open later that same day after corrective measures were implemented.
During December, a large volume of free sale letters was requested for export to foreign countries'
A totat of 63 letters were signed and issued to vemon companies that export food overseas. Free
Sale letters are notarized documents verifying the source of manufactured products that originate in
the United States, and that they meet local health standards for processing and distribution.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The annual sampling of potable water in USDA inspected facilities occurred in December.
seventy-two water samples were taken for laboratory analysis and comparison with state standards
for potability, and the analysis of all samples confirmed that the water met the State standards. A
certification letter was sent to each facility for presentation to its assigned USDA inspector. In
addition, back-flodcross connection surveys were completed for vacant buildings during the
month.
Director lronard Grossberg completed the following activities during the month:
a
a
Updated and submitted a revised Enforcement Program Plan (EPP) to the
California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle)'
Initiated Final Notices, office Hearings, and Suspension of Permits to facilities
that were delinquent on their Health Permits for 2015. Numerous facilities were
closed (no longir doing business in Vemon), several facilities were brought up to
date with their delinquent fees, and a few others had to be put on notice that their
permit was to be suspended. Eventually, all businesses in Vemon were brought
into compliance.
coordinated with local Directors for emergency response and assistance to San
Bemardino county Environmental Health offices after a terrorist attack killed 14
Environmental Health Specialists during a Christmas celebration. [-os Angeles
and Riverside Counties were able to immediately mobilize staff to cover staff,rng
during the first 30 days. Other jurisdictions, including Vernon offered part-time
assistance and support during that time. The City of Vernon also held a solemn
lowering of the flag ceremony on December 9th which was orchestrated by the
Vemon Police and Fire Depts.
Initiated the annual Health Permit Renewal invoices for calendar year 2016.
With the help of Deputy Director David trDuff, we submitted the first response
to the triennial CUPA Audit conducted in September. Deltciencies noted require
that a plan to correct all deficiencies be addressed and corrected in a timely
fashion. Quarterly reports will continue for 2016 until all items have been
completed.
Issued an Administrative Enforcement Order (AEO) to United Pacific Waste for
the unauthorized use of a yard for storage of solid waste bins. The company had
previously been issued a corrective notice to obtain an Occupancy Permit, a
Business License, and the required Health Permits, but failed to do so.
Finally, coordinated the 2016 Used Oil Calendar awards and presentation for
City Council consideration in January 2016.
Year 2015 HIGHLIGHTS
AND
Year 2016 CHALLENGES
The Year 2015 proved to be another active year for the Health Department. We added a new
Environmental Specialist to our staff, Erik Cheng, to filI one of the two vacant positions- His
addition will assiit us in meeting our mandated inspection schedules for our regulated programs in
the future. Also, using grant funds from the Ofhce of Emergency Services (OES), a temporary hire
(Brett Koontz) was brought in to update the Emergency Area Plan for the City'
D>)>)>>
A significant portion of our activities continued to be driven by federal and State mandated
p.og.u-r. Thise activities are associated with the Department's hazardous materials' hazardous
iaJte, unde.gtound tank, aboveground storage tanks, food safety, solid waste, cross-connection
control, and water quality programs. We continue to increase our responsibilities for the
Aboveground Storage of Petroleum Program, which was added to our Certified Unified Program
Agency (CUPA) tasks in 2010, and began routine inspections in 2012' An ongoing special focus in
2015 was the storm water protection program, which is enforced by the l,os Angeles Regional
water Quality control Board, and the california Accidental Release Prevention Program. With staff
re-assigirments in the Community Services Department, our staff took on additional guidance
."rponiibiliti.. in this program and will continue to monitor compliance for the city. Recent
,"qui."-"nt. to infiltrati the groundwater tables with annual storm water rainfall, requires that we
review each new development for meeting mandatory regulations, and seeing that public and
environmental protection is given the upmost consideration. ln addition, our supplemental
programs such ai the garment manufacturing, animal control, and vector control programs remained
active.
Chief Deputy Director David I-eDuff was instrumental in managing the electronic California
Environmentil Reporting System (CERS), which enables businesses to report hazardous material
and hazardous waste inventory and facility information in an electronic manner annually. It took an
active effort by all to properly educate and guide the Vemon businesses into following the proper
reporting guidelines and submittal requirements.
In the hazardous material area, our department is fully active with the State legislation requirement,
Califomia Environmental Reporting System (CERS), which facilitates reporting requirements.
All business are now reporting and submitting reports electronically. During 2015, we continued to
participate closely with seven other Los Angeles County CUPAs on the coordination of our
programs with those of other jurisdictions.
Our department provided assistance in environmental assessment and closure of a number of
commerciaVindustrial facilities during 2015. In some cases, our staff assisted other lead agencies;
Environmental Protection Agency @PA); Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), South
Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), and the Regional Water Quality Control
Board (RWQCB), in working towards remediation and closure. The facility assessment/closure
work included the review of site investigations, remediation plans, health and safety plans, sampling
results, closure documents, and on-site surveillance. These assessment/closure projects enabled
prospective buyers to obtain financial loans as well as helped property owners to promptly
redevelop sites and return properties to productive use. These efforts also protect public health and
the environment. Some of the larger projects reviewed or closed included:
o Pechiney Cast Plate, Fruitland Avenue (EPA, DTSC)
a Kop Coat, District Boulevard (RWQCB)
o Whole Foods, Pacific Boulevard
t Thermador Ind., District Blvd. (DTSC)
o Service Oil, Atlantic Blvd.
o Exide Technologies, Indiana Street (DTSC, SCAQMD)
a Packaging Advantage, 4633 Downey Road
o 2939 Bandini Blvd.
a Vemon Meters, 2510 E. 37fr Street
. Clorox, 4333 &4375 Bandini Blvd
DDD>>
Exide Technologies, a lead-battery recycling facility in Vemon, made headlines in the news as a
result of increasid lead and arsenic emissions that were reaching numerous residents in surrounding
cornmunities. The ensuing "Health Risk Assessment" initiated the south Coast Air Quality
Management District (AQMb), which permits air emissions, and DTSC, which regulates operating
permils for hazardous waste treatment ?acilities to issue immediate corrective actions. The public
demanded the closure of the plant, and ensuing public hearing and meetings were held to discuss the
status of the corrective actions issued. Subsequently the EPA issued a closure order in March and
began the process of site-closure and cleanup of the surrounding communities. On-going
coirmunity meetings to review and discuss the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Site
Closure Work Plan have been very productive and the final approvals are due in the spring of 2016,
so that clean-up and demolition can begin'
DDDD
Senior Environmental Specialist Jerrick Torres coordinated and participated in the annual Multi-
Agency Disciplinary Inspection with l,os Angeles County Sanitation Districts for the MGS Plant on
Soto Street. ih".loint activity is conducted every yezu with multiple agencies to inspect/review the
operations and effects of storm water and waste water discharge issues.
))DDD
During 2015 we continued to assist Vernon businesses in complying with the federally mandated
Accidintal Release Program (ARP). Califomia also adopted its own version of this program, CAL
ARP. Senior Environmental Specialist Jerrick Torres worked during the year to conduct reviews of
risk management plan updates and monitoring businesses' compliance with mitigation and
maintenance measures. Jerrick continues to attend the LEPC Region I AA Subcommittee meetings
representing the city.D>)))>)
The underground tank program continued to be impacted by AB 989, which requires aggressive
testing of tank systems, and additional testing requirements for tanks near water well facilities.
Only iwo underground storage tanks were removed in 2015. As of December 2015, the number of
underground tank facilities in Vernon numbered twenty seven with sixty eight permitted tanks
remaining.
>) >) >) ))
The Solid Waste Program was also active during 2015. Staff continues to look at ways to promote
..Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle" and promote sustainability by educating employees and Vemon
businesses. The "sustainability Open House" event in October 2015 was so popular and well
attended, that we are planning another open house in october 20161
To assist the City in meeting the State's mandated Year 2000 goal of 5OVo solid waste diversion, we
established a solid waste hauler non-exclusive franchise program in late 1998 and formalized
franchise agreements with thirty{hree haulers in 1999. We continued to monitor and enforce the
requiremenis for submission of quarterly reports and franchise fees by the nineteen currently
franchised haulers. With the City Council's action in 2009 to suspend the issuance of any new
franchise agreements, we continue to manage the program.
In 2015, *" *"." able to transition the quarterly reporting from paper to electronic submittals,
furthering our efforts to being more "green" and environmentally conscious by reducing our carbon
foot-print.
))DD))
In 2015, we also continued an educational and promotional used oil recycling pro$am with the
Vemon City School. The annual calendar cont;st created lots of interest among the hfth grade
participants on how the environment can be protected by recycling waste oil and used oil fltlters.
irize winning contestants, along with school staff members and sponsoring businesses, were
honored at a iecognition ""."mony at a City Council meeting in January. For 2015 the $1,000.00
sponsorship donation by "Baker Commodities" covered the printing costs of the calendar.
>)DD))
Also in 2015 we continued coordinating electronic waste recycling by setting up a free collection
day. The 2015 electronic waste collection day was the eleventh event and was held on April 27,
2015. Almost 8,20O pounds of miscellaneous electronics and 2,368 lbs. of computers were
collected and an additional 52 LCD's were collected. The eleven successful events have collected
over 236,000 pounds ( 1 l8 tons) of electronics and almost 21,000 linear feet of fluorescent lamps !
D))DD
One ofthe significant continuing activities in 2015 was our staff members' participation in
environmental career education and professional organization pro$ams. The following activities
are especially noteworthy:
Chief Deputy Director David kDuff participates in the Southern Califomia CUPA Forum, l-os
Angeles aounty CUPA Forum (LAC4), UCLA LOSH (Labor Occupational and Safety Health)
program and r"*". as Vemon's Communicable Disease Officer. David has also remained active in
the Califomia Environmental Health Association (CEHA) and National Environmental Health
Association (NEHA).
Senior Environmental Soecialist Jerrick Torres has conducted Storm Water Workshops for Vernon
Businesses and continues to review CaIARP reports for Regulated Chemical Inventories. In
addition, he serves on two technical committees for the next municipal storm water permit.
Senior Environmental Specialist Linda Johnson is also active on the Southern Chapter of the
Califomia Environmental Health Association. Linda continues her duties with the solid waste
program in Vemon, and was elected to serve as roundtable chair representing the Southem Cities at
the CalRecycle meetings and roundtables.
Senior Environmental Specialist Lyndon Ong Yiu is a member of the Food Technical Advisory
Co--itt"";*hich is often tasked by the California Conference of Directors of Environmental
Health to promulgate food-related policies that are applied State-wide, especially the new "Cottage
Food Regulations" and the "Mobile Food Regulations" Committee.
Director honard Grossberg participates in the Califomia Conference of Directors of Environmental
ft"atn ICCOEU), Califomia Conference of Local Health Officers (CCLHO), National Association
of county & city Health officials (NACCHO), Califomia Health Alert Network (CAHAN), and
the Emergency Response Committee (ERC). lronard also serves on the Board of Directors for the
UCLA Extension Program in Solid waste Mgmt., and also participates in a mentoring program at
Califomia State University Northridge.
Environmental Specialist Erik Cheng has completed his training and is fully certified to conduct
hazardous materials/waste and undeiground storage tank inspections. He has also assumed the
montNy water sampling duties, and vector control monitoring duties'
DDDD
For 2016, we will continue utilizing the Envisionconnect environmental monitoring software
system by having businesses suUmil all inventories & reports electronically. Program areas that
sirould bi enhanJed by this action are: hazardous materials reporting documentation; violation
coding for all progarns; and the ability of inspectors to print inspection reports and access
"o.pit".ir"d
-infJrmation while they're in the field. we also will be continuing a project to
electionically scan our closed file records onto a computer, which will facilitate easier record
reviews and file storage.
2016 will bring new challenges in meeting state mandate requirements in our progEms, as well as
working withii ongoing budget restraints. To meet those demands, in January we have added a
new En"rironmentJ SpicialiJ inspector which brings our staffi ng to lNVo. The first few months
will be busy with training and orientation, and will allow us to eventually meet our mandated
inspection frequencies for Vemon facilities.
Finally, new developments planned for 2016 in vemon will keep our staff busy in plan check
upp.ouul, and reviews/inspections and p€rmitting, including the re-development ofthe Pechiney
sitl, the Thermador site, packaging Advantage on Downey Road, and the new retail food court on
Alameda and 25th Street.

ZIKA VIRUS
Zka virus is spread to people through mosquito bites. The most common symptoms of Zka virus disease are
fever, rash, joint pain, and conjunctivitis (red eyes). The itlness is usually mild with symptoms lasting from
several days to a week. Severe disease requiring hospitalization is uncommon.
In May 2015, the Pan American Health Organization @AHO) issued an alert regarding the first confrmed Zka
virus infection in Brazil. The outbreak in Brazil led !o reports of Guillain-Barrd syndrome and pregnant women
giving birth to babies with birtl defecs and poor pregnancy outcomes.
In response, CDC has issued travel notices for people traveling to regions and certain countries where Zka
virus transmission is ongoing.
Areas with Zika
I{here has Zika virus been found?
hior to 2015, Tika vinrs outbreaks have occu[€d in arcas of Africa, Souttreast Asia, and the Pacific
Islands.
In May 2015, the Pan American Health Organization @AHO) issued an alert regarding the fint
confirmed Zka virus infections in Brazil.
Currently, outbreaks are occurring in many countries.
Zka vims will continue to sprcad and it will be difficult to determine how the virus will spread over
time.
4
Zka in the United States and its teritories:
. No locally transmitted Zka cases have been reported in the continental United States, but cases have
been reported in renrming travelers.
. Locally ransmitted Zka virus has been reported in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, and America Samoa-
. With the rccent outbr€aks, the number of Zka cases among travelers visiting or retuming to the United
States will likely increase.
. These imported cases could result in local spread of the virus in some areas of the United States.
Prevention:
. No vaccine exists to prevent Zka virus disease (Zka).
. Prevent Zka by avoiding mosquito bites (see below).
. Mosquitoes tlnt spread Zka vinrs bite mostly during the daytime.
. Mosquitoes that spread Zka virus also spread dengue and chikungunya vinrses.
When traveling to counfiies where 7ik, vinrs or other viruses spread by mosquitoes are found take
the following steps:
. Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants.
. Stay in places with air conditioning or that use window and door screens to keep mosquitoes outside.
. Sleep under a mosquito bed net if you are overseas or outside and arc not able to Fotect yourseH from
mosquito bites.
. Use Environmental Protection Agency @PA)-registered irsect repellents. All EPA-registered insect
repellents are evaluated for effectiveness.
o Always follow the product label instructions
o Reapply insect rcpellent as directed.
o Do not spray repellent on the skin under clothing.
o If you are also using sunscreen, apply sunscreen before applying insect repellent.
5
If you have a baby or child:
Do not use insect rcpellent on babies younger than 2 months of age.
Dress your child in clothing tha coven arms and legs, or
Cover crib, sEoller, and baby carrier with mosquito netting.
Do not apply insect rcpellent onto a child's hands, eyes, mouth, and cut or initated skin.
Adults: Spray insect repellent onto your hands and then apply to a child's face.
Treat clothing and gear with permethrin or purchase pern€thin-teabd items.
Treated clothing remains protective after multiple washings. See product infommtion to leam
how long the protection will last
If neating items yourself, follow the product instructions carefi ly.
Do NOT use permethrin products directly on skin. They are intended to teat clothing.
If you have Zkq prct€ct others from gefiing sick
During the fint week of infection, Zka virus can be found in the blood and passed ftom an infected
person to another mosquio through mosquito bites. An infected mosquito can then spread the vims to other
people.
To help prevent others from getting sick, avoid mosquito bit€s during the first week of illness.

Information for travelers
Traveling? Visit CDC's Travelers Health website to see if the country you plan to visit has any travel
health notices.
Symptuns
About 1 in 5 people infected with Zka virus become ill (i.e., develop Zka).
The most common symptoms of Zka are feveq rash, joint pain, or conjunctivitis (red eyes)- Other
common symptoms include muscle pain and headache. The incubation period (the time from exposure to
symptoms) for Zka virus disease is not known, but is likely to be a few days to a week.
The illness is usually mild with synptoms lasting for several da5n to a week
Zka virus usually remains in the blood of an infected person for a few days but it can be found longer
in some people.
Severe disease requiring hospitalization is uncommon.
Deatts are rare.
Diagrcn;
The symptoms of Zka are similar to those of dengue and
chikungunya(http://www.cdc.gov/chikungunyafindex.htnrl), diseases spread through the same mosquitoes
that fiansmit Zka
See your healthcare provider if you develop the sympoms described above and have visited an area
where Zka is found.
If you have recently travele( teU your healttrcare provider when and where you traveled.
Your healthcare provider may order blood tests to look for Zka or other similar viruses like dengue or
chikungunya.

February 16,2016
Honorable Mayor and City Council
AJ Wilson, Interim City
Amendment No. I to the Agreement with Mayer Brown LLP for John Van de
Kamp to Serve as Independent Special Counsel to the City of Vernon
Recommendation
A. Find that approval of the agreement proposed in this staff report is exempt from the
Califomia Environmental Quality Act C'CEQA), in accordance with CEQA Guidelines
$ 15061(bX3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a
sigrificant effect on the environmenq and
B. Approve Amendment No. I to the Agreement with Mayer Brown LLP for John Van de
Kamp to serve as Independent Special Counsel to the City of Vemon for a period of one
year, effective February 16,2016, at a not to exceed amount of $100,200, in substantially
the same form as presented herewith.
Backsround
John Van de Kamp was originally engaged by the City in February 2011, at the outset of the
good govemance reforms, to serve as Independent Ethics Advisor to the City of Vemon for an
initial term of one year. The scope of that engagement included: (l) assessments of and
recommendations regarding ongoing compliance with the Political Reform Act, Govemment
Code Section 1090, Brown Act, Public Records Act, and any other provisions of law goveming
conllicts of interest and,/or transparency in government: and (2) recommendations to the City
reasonably designed to improve and enhance the existing practices, procedures, and policies
goveming conflicts of interest and open govemment of the City, its departments, divisions, and
goveming bodies. The initial agreement also required Mr. Van de Kamp to issue an initial report
of his findings and recommendations in July 201 1, and a follow-up report in January 2012, with
time in between for the City Administrator and City Council to review and implement, or
otherwise respond to, all initial findings and recommendations.
As many of the earliest good govemance reforms took shape, a need for a four-year Independent
Reform Monitor to observe and continue reporting on and making recommendations related to
Page 1 of3
the reform process was identified, and ultimately determined and upheld by a landslide vote of
the City's electorate in November 201l. As a result, the City entered into a new engagement
with Mr. Van de Kamp to serve as the City's Independent Reform Monitor for a period of four
years commencing February 15,2012. The scope of the four-year contract mirrored that of the
initial one-year contract, with the additional responsibility of reviewing and making further
recommendations related to recommendations previously submitted as the Independent Ethics
Advisor in July 201 1, and to those submitted by Senator Kevin de Leon in August 201 1.
Mr. Van de Kamp was selected, initially and subsequently, by virtue of his unassailable
reputation for ethics and good govemance practices derived from his notable work as a lawyer
and his noted political career as Califomia Attorney General and Los Angeles County District
Attorney. Mr. Val de Kamp's professional attributes and unquestioned integrity were highly
valued by the City and solidly endorsed by Public oflicials scrutinizing the City.
Prooosed New One-Year Asreement
With the upcoming expiration of Mr. Van de Kamp's current contract as the City's Independent
Reform Monitor, there has been much discussion about what the most effective and appropriate
framework and role of any new or extended relationship between Mr. Van de Kamp and the City
of Vemon may be.
After discussion and deliberation among the City Council over several meetings, the Council
directed staff at its January 5, 2016 meeting to prepare a one-year extension of the current
contract but with a change in title to more accurately reflect the, in essence, post-reform status
of the City.
Upon review of the proposed contract extension by the Interim City Administrator, further
altematives were reviewed and discussed with Mr. Van de Kamp and the City Attomey.
Based on this review, the Interim City Administrator and Mr. Van de Kamp agreed upon a new
one-year agreement which is now being proposed with the following new scope and fee
schedule:
New Scope:

Second Amendment to Biomethane Transaction Confirmation by and
between the Cify of Vernon and Canton Renewables, LLC
Recommendation
A. Find that (a) the amendment to the Biomethane Transaction Confirmation between the
City of Vemon and Canton Renewables, LLC is not in reference to a "project" subject to
the Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Guidelines section 15378
because it involves the administrative activity of purchasing Biomethane; and (b) even if
this approval were a "project" subject to CEQA, the approval requested is exempt in
accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(b), the general rule that CEQA only
applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment because purchasing
Biomethane is purely a financial transaction, and any construction that may occur by a
private pa(y in the future in reliance on this approval would be subject to CEQA review
by another govemmental agency at that time when actual details ofany physical proposal
would be more than speculative; and
B. Approve the amendment between the City of Vemon (the -City") and Canton
Renewables, LLC ("Canton"), in substantially the same form as attached herewith, for
the purpose of adding an Option Section within the agreement that allows for the City to
purchase renewable energy at the most competitive price available in the market hJieu
of receiving Biomethane from Canton. With this modification, Vemon Gas & Electric
("VG&E") will potentially recognize significant cost savings.
C. Authorize the Director of VG&E to execute the Second Amendment to the Biomethane
Transaction Confirmation by and between the City of Vemon and Canton.
Background
Califomia environmental laws require the City to comply with renewable energy mandates. In
an effort to attain compliance, the City contracted with Canton for Biomethane fuel which allows
Page I of2
CITY ADMINIS
I
the City to obtain Category I "bucket one" Renewable Energy Credits that me€t the Renewable
Portfolio Standards C'RPS) compliance requirements for Category l, as set forth in Califomia
Public Utilities Code Section 399.16(bXlXA).
In February 2012, City Council granted authorization to the Director of Vemon Gas & Electric to
negotiate the terms and conditions of biogas contracts with vendors. Pursuant to Resolution No.
2012-50, City Council approved and ratified the execution ofa base contract by and between the
City and Canton (formerly Clean Energy Renewable Fuels, LLC) for the purchase of
Biomethane fuel to be used at the Malburg Generating Station C'MGS). Accordingly, on March
8, 2012, Vemon ("Buyer") and Canton Renewables, LLC ("SelleC') entered into a Biomethane
transaction contract. A First Amendment to the Base Contract with Canton was approved by
Vemon City Council July 22,2013.
The proposed second amendment will provide the City an option to purchase renewable energy
at the most competitive price available in the market inJieu of receiving Biomethane from
Canton. In summary, the amended Transaction Confirmation includes the following:
o Additional Definitions (Section 2) - Minimum Quantity means a daily average
quantity of Biomethane calculated over the course of a Contract Year (excluding from
the calculation (a) any days on which Force Majeure affected Seller's performance, as
notified to Buyer in accordance with Section I I of the Base Contract, and (b) any
calendar quarters during which the Mutual Option is elected by Buyer and Seller).
o New Section (Section 16) - The Parties may agree, in writing, prior to the beginning
of a calendar quarter during the Delivery Period, to invoke the Mutual Option under
this Transaction Confirmation. The Mutual Option states that Seller shall not be
required to deliver Biomethane to Buyer under this Transaction Confirmation during
the calendar quarter in which this option is elected by the Parties. Instead, Buyer
shall procure Gas, RECs and Allowances from a third party, or third parties, during
such quarter and Seller may transport the Biomethane it would have sold to Buyer
during such calendar quarter to third parties.
The Second Amendment Transaction Confirmation between the City of Vemon and Canton
Renewables has been reviewed and approved by the City Attomey's office. VC&E staff
recommends that the City Council approve and authorize its execution by the Director of Cas &
Electric in order for the department to yield savings associated with future Biomethane
transactions.
Fiscal Impact
The amended Confirmation, when the mutual option is invoked, would provide Vemon cost
reduction of up to $839,000 per quarter or $3,400,000 per year for the remaining term of the
agleement.

taken to protect the environment and constitutes normal operations ofthe fire station, the
activity is categorically exempt from the Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15308 (actions taken to protect the environment),
15323 (normal operations of public facilities) and 15061(b)(3), the general rule that
CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment.
2. Approve the scheduling of the next City of Vernon E-Waste event for April 5, 2016, at
Fire Station #1 at 3375 Fruitland Ave., using the vendor Arion Global, Inc.
Background:
With the success of electronic waste collection events held in Vemon (August 2007. February 2008,
September 2008, April 2009, October 2009, July 2010, May 2011, May 2012, March 2013, May
2014, and April 2015) and continuing interest by the business community, staff requests your
approval to schedule another event for April 5,2016. For 2016, staff is using the same vendor,
Arion Global, Inc. ("Arion"), as last year, which is headquartered in nearby Commerce to help us
collect and properly dispose of e-wastes and also some Universal Wastes that are generated by
Vemon businesses. Arion will provide e-waste pick-up and disposal services at no cost to the City,
as Arion should be able to profit somewhat from the value of the material it accepts. Some
Universal Wastes require special handling, and to facilitate removal, that service is provided for a
nominal fee to the public. Arion will bill businesses directly for those services. Please see the
attached flyer for additional information.
This year's 2016 E-Waste Recycling Event is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, April 5,2016, at
Fire Station #l at Fruitland and Downey Road. Arion will provide the necessary equipment and
most of the manpower (some participation by our department of Public Works, Water &
Development Services personnel may be required for logistical purposes). Arion has stated it will
collect a fee for Universal Wastes only ($.25 per foot for fluorescent light tubes, $3.50 for mixed
fluorescents & $l.sO/pound batteries). All electronic wastes (e-wastes) will be collected and
disposed of for free. A certificate of destnrction will be generated by Arion and will total the
amounts of wastes collected during the event.
Attached are copies of the proposed event flyer; Arion's proposed agreement, proof of insurance,
and workers comp coverage; and a list of items that would be accepted for free at the recycling
event.
Fiscal imoact:
Since Arion Global, Inc. is providing the service at no cost to the City of Vemon the only fiscal
impact to the City will be providing manpower during the event to facilitate the loading and
unloading of e-wastes being brought in. Two utility workers from the Public Works, Water &
Development Services with one forklift, and two field staff from the Environmental Health
Department will provide assistance from l0:00 am until 2:00 pm that day.
