Life.Savings Award Presentation
Recommendation
The Police and Fire Department will provide lifesavings awards to Police and Fire personnel for
their actions in providing immediate medical aid to a victim of cardiac arrest.
Background
On September 03,2016, during the early afternoon hours, Police Officers Carlos Ourique and
Richard Velasquez responded to Charlie Pride, 2959 E. 50th Street, regarding a medical aid call
involving a male worker found unconscious and not breathing.
Offrcers arrived within minutes and found Cristobal Cisneros in full cardiac arrest. Officers
Ourique and Velasquez immediately conducted a medical aid assessment, deployed the
automated external defibrillator (AED) device, and initiated life saving measures. As they
continued performing life-savings measures, Vernon Fire Engine 76, Truck 76 and Rescue 78
arrived on scene and took over medical care. After several minutes of intensive life-saving
measures and deployment of the AED device, Cisneros regained a faint pulse. Rescue 78
immediately fansported Cisneros to a local hospital where his condition was stabilized. After a
week of medical treatment, Cisneros fully recovered from his medical episode and was released
from the hospital. Hospital medical staff gave credit to Cisneros' survival as a result of the
immediate life-saving measures provided by public safety personnel.
There is no question that based on the quick response and immediate life-saving measures
performed by Police and Fire penonnel Cisneros was able to completely recover from this
medical event. This incident is a testament to the Police and Fire defibrillator program and how
these devices have enhanced our ability to save lives in our community.

and;
C. Authorize the Mayor to execute the Measure R Funding Agreement for the Recirculated
Draft EIR-/EIS.
Background
Metro and Caltrans are implementing a highway improvement project known as the I-71 0 Corridor
Improvement Project. The proposed project will widen the Long Beach Freeway (I-710) between
Ocean Boulevard and the Pomona Freeway (SR-60). As part of the I-710 South Early Action
Page I of2
Projects, Metro authorized funding agreements for local agency review ofthe I-710 Draft EIR{EIS
(hereinafter referred to as "Project"). As such, the City of Vemon City Council approved a
Funding Agreement by and between the City of Vemon and Metro for the Project in the amount
of $57,000 under Resolution No. 2012-177. More specifically, Meho agreed to fund the review
of the Project.
The City of Vemon City Council authorized the issuance of a Request for Proposals to seek a
consultant to assist the City of Vemon with the Project under Resolution No. 2012-53. Ultimately,
the City of Vemon City Council accepted the bid of Chambers Group, Inc. for the review of the
Project on behalf of the City under Resolution No. 2012-117. The final cost for the services
provided by Chambers Group, Inc. on behalfofthe City totaled $52,198.
Metro prepared the Measure R Funding Agreement for the Recirculated Draft EIR/EIS for City
staffto padcipate in the Project Technical Advisory Committee and Project Committee, and City
Council members to participate in the Project Committee meetings. Additionally, the Measure R
Funding Agreement for the Recirculated Draft EIR/EIS will reimburse the City to provide
technical support of the revised engineering concepts for the proposed altematives and other
engineering concepts/coordination which may have impacts in the City of Vemon and the local
vicinity. Another Funding Agreement will be sought for the next steps including providing a
technical review of the Recirculated Draft EIR/EIS.
The I-710 Corridor Improvement Project may impact the interchange of Atlantic Boulevard and
Bandini Boulevard. City staff has worked with Metro staff in the past on a concept to construct
an interchange on the I-710 Freeway at Slauson Avenue to benefit transportation into the City of
Vemon. City staffwill coordinate with Metro and representatives from the City of Maywood to
try to minimize the impacts of City of Vemon property and business owners. The Measure R
Funding Agreement for the Recirculated Project has been reviewed and approved as to form by
the City Attomey's Office.
Fiscal Imoect
There is no fiscal impact as Metro will reimburse the City for staff time and for any consultant
engineering services to review the impact of the Recirculated Project on the City of Vemon. Metro
is granting the City of Vemon an additional $18,000, for a combined maximum allowable grant of
$75,000, for work performed on the Project and Recirculated Draft EIREIS. The Public Works,
Water and Development Services Department budgeted for this work in the proposed Fiscal Year
201612017 Street Operations account.

Management Joint Powers Authority ("GWMA").
Background
The Los Angeles Regional Board of the State Water Resources Control Board approved the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit for Waste Discharge
Requirements for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Discharges within the Coastal
Watersheds of Los Angeles County, except those discharges originating from the City of Long

Beach @ereinafter referred to as the Municipal NPDES Permit) on November 8, 201 2 and
amended on June 16, 2015 by Order WQ 2015-0075.
The Municipal NPDES Permit places an emphasis on coordination of resources and efforts
between the Permittees such as Integrated Watershed Planning. As such, the Public Works
Department works cooperatively with GWMA cities and others to make better use of the limited
resouces while making an effort to comply with the Municipal NPDES Permit.
With that said, the City of Vemon participated with the cities of Bell Gardens, Downey, Lynwood,
Norwalk, Paramount, Pico fuver4 Santa Fe Springs, Signal Hill, South Gate, and Whittier
(hereinafter refened to as "Participating Cities") in the Proposition 84 grant fimding application to
install stormwater treatrnent systems (hereinafter referred to as the "Project"). GWMA contracted
with a consultant to lead the coordination and the State Water Resources Control Board (State
Board) awarded $1,073,820 in grant fimds with a local match of$270,220.
On March 17,2015 the City Council approved the Subrecipient Agreement between the City and
GWMA to assist in facilitating the receipt, processing, and reimbursement of the Grant Agreement
funding for the purposes of the Proposition 84 Grant Program through the State Board. The City's
portion of grant funds is for two tree boxes which serve as Local Impact Development (LID)
stormwater capture devices. These devices are slated to be installed on 26s Street: 1) one tree box
will be installed west of Indiana Avenue, and; 2) one tree box will be installed east of Indiana
Avenue. The tree boxes will be the City's first pilot project to achieve TMDL compliance. The
initial value of the two tree boxes to be installed in the City's jurisdiction was $92,185.45,
including construction, project management and monitoring with a total local match of$18,565.45.
Discussion
As required under Section 4.1 Implementation of Sub-Project of the Subrecipient Agteement,
GWMA released a request for bids for the 8 members, Bell Gardens, Downey, Lynwood, Norualk,
Paramount, Pico River4 Santa Fe Springs, and Vemon. GWMA received bid proposals from four
companies: l) Palp, Inc. (Excel Paving), 2) Metro Builders & Engineers Group, Ltd., 3) Bali
Construction, Inc., and 4) Mike Prlich and Sons, Inc., with bid amounts ranging from $8,14,350 -
Sl,216,'140. In June 2016 GWMA awarded the contract to Palp, Inc. (aka Excel Paving) for a cost
of $844,350. This essentially leaves a remaining balance of $ I 15,905.
The original amount estimated exclusively for the construction portion ofthe Proposition 84 grant
was $728,2145. The increase in cost is due in part to the State's delay to approve the project designs,
as the costs have increased from the original estimate developed in 2013.
The State Board has been notified of the increase in cost and has provided assurances that this
increase does not affect the grant agreement. Although the State Board confirmed that the increase
in cost for the construction ofthe project does not affect the grant agreement, Section 2.3 of the
Subrecipient Agreement specifies that," ... Subrecipient shall be solely responsible for any costs
associated with the Sub-Project in the event that the grant funds are not forthcoming for any reason,
or in the event that the Subrecipient Grant Funds are insufficient to cover costs for the Sub-Project
in any way."

Additionally, Excel Paving will be conducting geological sample testing and disposal ofhazardous
soil, if required. These services will be conducted wrder a City Purchase Contract.
Fiscal Impact
Funds are available in the Public Works Departnent Street Operations account (1043) to cover the
additional costs for the Project, geological sample testing, and disposal of hazardous soil.

Recommendation
A. Find that because the proposed action will not result in direct or indirect physical changes
in the environment, it does not constitute a "project" as defined by Califomia
Environmental Quality Act ('CEQA') Guidelines Section 15378 and is therefore not
subject to CEQA review. 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 sigrrificant effect on the environment; and
B. Authorize an $8,000 increase in cost for legal services provided by Richards, Watson &
Gershon ('RWG") under their current Legal Services Agteement with the City of Vemon
(copy attached) to continue representing the City, as needed to protect the City's interests,
as a real party in interest in titigation challenging a Final Order of the State Water Board
which approved the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit Order No. R4-2012-0175 ("Municipal
NPDES Permit) as amended by Order WQ 2015-0075.
Background
ln Closed Session on July 21, 2015, the City Council authorized the City Administmtor to enter
into a Legal Services Agreement with RWG to represent the City, as needed to protect the Ciry's
interests, as a real party in interest in litigation likely to be brought by the environmental groups
challenging a final order of the State Water Board. The Final Order approved the National
Polluunt Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System
(MS4) Permit Order No. R4-2012-017 5 as amended by Order WQ 2015-0075. RWG is

representing l9 other cities on this matter. At that time, if the litigation proceeded as anticipated,
then the initial cost to the City of Vemon to prepare an answer and further advise the City and its
staff in connection with the lawsuit was anticipated to be in the range of $1,500-$2,000. If RWG's
participation required more time, such that the costs to the City would exceed $2,000, staff
indicated this item would retum to the City Council for additional authorization.
As mentioned above, it was initially anticipated that litigation would be brought by the
environmental groups. However, three writ of mandate petitions were filed in Los Angeles
Superior Court challenging the 2012 LA County MS4 Permit. One petition was frled jointly by
the Natural Resources Defense Council ("NRDC) and Los Angeles Waterkeeper ("LA
Waterkeeper"). Two petitions were filed by municipal permittees----one jointly by the Cities of
Duarte and Huntinglon Park, and the other by the City of Gardena. Both of the cases filed by cities
have since been transfened to Orange County. Counsel for the Cities of Duarte, Huntington Park
and Gardena each requested venue in Orange County, primarily because ofthe County's proximity
to Los Angeles; the petitioners' counsel, and; the 84 municipal permittees that are all real parties
in interest to the three separate cases. RWG's clients, including the City of Vernon, were
supportive of this request, as Orange County has an established group ofjudges who hear complex
civil cases and could accommodate a case such as this one. In addition, it is easier for counsel to
travel to Orange County, thereby saving costs to RWG's client cities.
The City of Gardena served the City of Vemon as a real party in interest in its lawsuit, although
the complaint seeks no relief from the City of Vemon or any other permiftee that the City of
Gardena named as a real party. The City of Vemon answered the City of Gardena's petition and
appeared in the case for the purpose of monitoring the litigation and receiving notices and filings.
However, the City of Vemon reserved its right to participate in the case if necessary. Currently
pending before the court is a motion to compel discovery frled by the cities and a motion for
judgment on the pleadings filed by the Attomey General. A trial date in the Gardena and Duarte
cases has not yet been scheduled. It is possible, however, that the court will order the parties to
participate in a comprehensive settlement conference before doing so.
The City of Vernon, and 19 other cities represented by RWG, have intervened in the case filed by
the NRDC and LA Waterkeeper. That case seeks to eliminate provisions of the MS4 Permit that
deem permittees in compliance with certain numeric effluent limits and receiving water limits
when implementing a Watershed Management Program, as Vemon has elected to do. By
intervening in this case, the City of Vemon was permitted to file a brief to resist the NRDC's and
LA Waterkeeper's claims. However, the City is not being exposed to any affrrmative liability as
a result ofthe intervention. A final hearing for that case was scheduled for September 30,2016
but, the judge did not issue a decision, or even a tentative decision. The final hearing was
continued to November 14, 2016 and that final decision could be pushed firther.
In addition, a hearing is scheduled for October 14,2016 in the Duarte and Gardena challenges to
the Stormwatff Permit. The hearing involves motions by the Cities of Gardena and Duarte to
compel discovery on the Water Boards (likely for cost information). The hearing also involves
the Attomey General's motion to dismiss some, but not all, of the cities' claims. The hearing was
initially scheduled for September, but was delayed due to scheduling conflicts.
The following events have caused the cost of these legal efforts to exceed the anticipated initial
cost of $2,000: In July 2015, three cases were filed as opposed to the one anticipated case by
Page 2 of 3
NRDC and LA Waterkeeper. Second, in addition to answering the NRDC's writ; RWG has also
prepared and filed a responsive brief in the NRDC case; answered Gardena's writ petition;
coordinated service ofprocess; reviewed the briefs in all three cases, and; participated in several
hearings. Consequently, there has been additional work beyond answering the NRDC's wdt and
monitoring the litigation. Third, there are three cases to follow that are being lifigated on separate
tracks and in different courthouses. RWG initially anticipated that all three cases would be
consolidated in one court in Los Angeles, but the Duarte and Gardena cases were allowed to be
transferred to Orange County. Finally, RWG did not anticipate monitoring and participating in
the Gardena and Duarte cases to the extent they have been. Gardena's decision to name and serve
every city as a real party in interest forced the cities to play a more active role in that case.
Fiscal Impact
Staffrecommends that the City Council authorize an increase of $8,000 to the costs allowed under
the curent Legal Services Agreement with RWG to have RWG continue to participate on this
matter, on behalf of the City and continue advising the City. Including the $2,000 previously
authorized, the total not to exceed zrmount authorized would be $10,000. Funds for the increase
requested are available in the City Attomey's Department budget.

Re: Attomey Conflict Waiver Request for Representatiou of City in Anticipaed
Litigation Challenging the LA MS4 Pemrit
Dcar Mr. Whitworth:
On June 16,2015, the State Wata Resources Conrol Boad (.1Sr+e Board.) heard
and adopted a Final Order r€solving ctaims made in various petitions challenging the
Los Angeles Stormwaftr Permit pcodiDg before it Thc Firm has rcprcsented the City
in comection with its petition before thg State Board It is likely tbat one or more
parties aggrieved by the resulb of that final order will seek judicial review, which
will be triggered by issuance of rher order. Tbc puryosc of this [etter is to requcst the
City's authorization to r€pres€nt it in any ensuing lawsuit filed by environmqrtal
groqs challenging the Board's f inel Q1d6. Because the Firm bas been representing
multiple paties, ure also are requesting thd the City review and o(ecute this proposed
conflict waiver, as it did peviously.

The City of Vemon ('City') is a cepermitee under the MS4 Permit, and is thrs
subject to its rcgulatory requirements. On or beforc Decemb 10,2012, the deadline
for filiag administrative appeals, mis Firm assistcd tbc City in thc filiag of an
administrativc appca! known as a Petition for Review ('Petition'). The Petition
challenged the adopion of the Permit on various legal urd technical gounds.
The Firm drafred and assistcd in the filing of Pctitions for 2l diffcrcnt municipal
pennittccs, which included the cities of Agora Hills, Ar,cadi4 Artesi4 Beverly Hills,
Commcrce, Covina" Culver City, Downey, Hidden Hills, Inglewmd, La Mirad4
Manhanan Bcach, Monrovi4 Norwalk, Rancho Palos Vcrdas, Redondo Beach, San
Mariao, Soutb El Monte, Tonance, Vemon, and Wcstlakc Villagc. One of those
cities (Arcadia) uhimalely chose to bc represcntcd by another law firm, so the Firm
aow rcprcseots 20 municipal pcrmittecs (collectively, the "Collective Petitioners').
In addition to the pctitions filcd by this firm, 14 additional petitions were filed by
other mrmicipal pennittees, as well as a pctition by tbree environmental groups led by
the Natlal Resources Defense Courrcil, aod including Hcal thc Bay, and the tos
Angeles Riverkeeper (collectively the *NRDC PARTIES'). The NRDC parties'
petition stated that the 2012 MS4 Pemit conravened various provisions of federal
law and was a stcp 'backward", not I stc? forward, in efforts to regulate stomwater
discharges frorn the MS4 system into waterways such as the Los Angeles or San
Gabricl Rivcrs, Ballona Crcck, Malibu Crcck, or ultimatcly, to thc Pacific Ocean.
Tbe Firm rcpresented the Collectivc Petitioners in filing petitions, att€nding one
workshop in Los Angeles, filing two sets of comment letters, and opposing two
requests by the NRDC parties to augment thc existing record by incorporation of
additional documene tbrougb 'Judicial noticc." Thc Firm reprcscnted the Collective
Petitioners at the anticipated adopion hearing rct by thc Starc Board for Iune 16,
2015.
As noted, the City previously agrccd to waive porcntial conflicts of interest arising
from the Firm's joint rqresentation of the Collcctive Petitiouerc before the State
Board in the admini.suative proceedings related to thc Pctitions. A copy of ttat prior
waiver letter is contained in Attrchment A.

II. Requcct for ]lrrivcr of Potential Conflict in Joirt R€preentetion of Cities
in Threetcned Litigetion Brought by Environmental Groups
We aoticipatc that thc NRDC partics will scck to chaltcnge the Final ffier of the
statc Board as violating provisions of the federal clean water AcL The State Board
issued a notice of the Final Order on June 26,2015, and the NRDC parties will likelyfile a lawsuit to seek a writ of maodate within 30 days of the stare-Board's iss,anclofa final order, or by luly 27,2015. We anticipare (altho,gh wp cornot be certain)
that Urc NRDC parties will name the Collective Petitioners (including thc Ciry) as
'teal parties in inter€st", together with a number of other cities located within the
County and rhe County of Lns Aogeles and ie Flood Control District.r It is also
possible that one or more of the Collective Petitioners will file their own writ to
cballcage portions of thc Satc Board's fi.nal order. We believe that if multiple wits
are filed by various partics, then it is likely tha they rryould be consolidated in one
combined prding.
We write !o request that the City waive any potcntial conflicts of intef,est rhet may
arise from the Firm's joint rcpresentation of the City, together with the other cities
that have retained our Firm to r€pesent the,m in thc thrcatcoed litigdion brought by
the NRDC parties. Specifcally, we requcst that the City waivc a potential conflict
based upon the Firm's reprcsentatiou of multiple cities in any lawsuit brought by the
NRDC parties challenging the LA Stormwater pennit, including the permit's safe
harbor provisions. Wc furthcr requcst that the City agrer to share confidential
attomey-client communications in a joint defensc efort with the 19 other cities wtro
are curenfly part of the Firm's representation for purposes of the administrative
Petition to the State Board.
I throughout thc coursc of our rcprasenation of thc pctitioncrs, we have bc€tr in regular tclepbonic

m. Potential Conflicts of Interest by Virtue of Joint Representation
The Firm maintains a conflict of interes database. We have examined this darabase
!o determinc whether we might havc a professional conflict of interest with respect o
the State Water Quality Control Board or tte Regional BoanC, and the other cities the
Firm will represent in this matter, which cities arc lisrcd in Attrchment B.
We find no previous or curr€nt rclationships that would ioterfere with our ability to
represent the City in this litigation cnse. If thcrc arc other parties that would be
affected by this .m.drcr or who you otherrrise feel we should consider in ou analysis
of potential conllicts, pleasc provide those names to us so wc can det€rmi[e whethcr
therc are conflicts as to thos€ parties.
The Califomia Rules of hofessional Condrrct requirc that we disclosc to you ttrat tbe
Firm is representing ttre Crty of Vemon and other cities thar may be part of the
threatened litigation brougbt by the NRDC parties. At this time, the Firm sewes as
City Attomcy for Petitioners Agoura Hills, Artesia, Bevcrly Hills, Covin4 ta Mirada,
Ilidden Hills, Matrhafian Beacb, Monrovia, Norwallq Rancho Palos Verdes, San
Marino, South El Montc, and Westlake Village. Thc Fkm is also general counsel for
tlte Gateway Water Management Aufiority for which it provides counsel on issues
related to the Stormwater Permit but this work is not related to the threatened
litigation brought by the NRDC partics.
If the threatened litigation procceds, and if so requested the Firm will represent the
Cities of Agoura Hills, Artesi4 Bcverly Hills, Commcrce, Covina Culvcr City,
Downry, Hiddcn Hills, Inglewood, La Mirada Matrhauan Beach, Moorovia,
Norwalk, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, San lr,[arino, South El Monte,

Based on our review of the hcts as arc know[ to w at rtris time, we betieve th€ Firm
is able to fully reprascnt the cities ard that there is no actual confliA among the
potential city defendane. .See Rule 3-3l0(CX2). Each city has an iatercst in easuring

Here, it is possible tbat adversity betweeo the cities represented by the Firm could
arise down tlre line if the threatened litigaion related to ttrc Permit ultimarcly eosues.
For one exarnple, one city might wish to file its own independent action secking a
wdt of mandate egeinst the State Boad's final ordcr on a particular issue, such as the
existencc of numeric limits in the fomr of "receiving e.aler limits." Otirer cities may
not wish to file such an independent action, but rathcr scck to havc a lcss sctivc ond
independent profile in any ultimate litigation.
Additionally, there may be aspccts of dre Permit thd will be accepable to one or
more Petitioners and macceptable to othcr Petitionem, leading one city to seek to
prcserve an aspect of the Permit tha anothcr city would like to challenge. As an
gxemFlc, one City may believe tlut all compliancc should be measued tbrough MS4
"out'all" monitoring while another City EEy disagree. The Firm believes any such
potential conflicts about specific implementation of the Stormwater Pcrmit ar€
unlikely to arise in the currenfly anticipared NRDC paties' litigation. That is, the
NRDC parties are not anticipated !o attack spccific parts of a particular City's permit
compliance, rather, we anticipate that the NRDC parties will attack the Sormwater
Pennit (as approved with modifications in the Finnl Order of the State Board) on
grounds applicable to all cities.
It currently appea$ that all of the Petitioners arc mutually and beneficially htercsted
in the outcome that will be sought by this Firm: Defending the Pemit from a general
allout attack by the NRDC partics. The NRDC parties' anticipafed writ of mandate
litigation coul4 if zuccessfirl, Esult in years of firtrer Regional Board efforts o
crcate a new MS4 permit, itself subject to a new appeal to the State Boar4 and from
there, yet another challenge in statc courts.
tlonetheless, if during the joint defense of any NRDC parties' litigation, the potential
conflict matures iato an achul conflict between two or mor€ cities tbat we jointly
represent, then we would be forced to withdraw from representation of those cities.
The affected cities might then incur additional costs and attomeys' fees in hiring and
rctaining a new law firm to assist thcm in any fimher court proceediog in this
tfueatened titigation. For o<ample, if a ncw firm is engaged, attomeys from that new

firE might rcquirc some additional time to *get up to spcod" on the maner, which
would likely result in increased ftcs and costs.
IV. Confidentielity Among Join0y Rcproscntcd Pertier
Califomia Statc law mandates that an attomcy may not disclosc confidcntial
*ra6nnigations or s€crets of a client Where clients consent to joint rcprcsatation
however, tbe privilege of confidentiality between the clients with rcgard to
confidential information given to us is limitcd. Any communications and information
may bc fully disclosed by us to all jointly represented clicnts, unlcss the client making
the disclosue informs us in writing of its desire that a prticular communication or
itqn of iDformation be considered confidential and withheld from the otlrcr clients.
If the City informs us that confidentiality from the othcr clicnts must be maintained
with rcspect to a particular communication or item of infomration, we will advise the
other clients rhat 5p6[ a r€qu€st has bccn made, without di"rrlgng its subjcct Eatter,
and will inquire whether any of the other clients object to * *11666trling ttrc
communication or item of ioformation from thc othcr clients. By signing this letter,
the City exprcssly coruents to such disclosure to thc othcr clqrts.
Wc may withdraw from representing one or morc clieots if a clic.lrt objccts to our
withholding information as by another client or iftrere is an actual conllict
betwecn the interests of any clients, provided thc withdraual is permitted under tbe
Rules of Profcssional Conduct of the State Bar of Califomia
Further, please understand that if thc City revcals inforrnation to us that may be
dctrimenral b anothcr client city, tbe FirE may be obligaied tor rcv€al rhet
information to the other clicnt city. Should that information be such that r,ve bclieve
an actual conllict has dcvclopcd bctwcen the cities, we might need to witbdnw our
rcpresentation altogether. That could havc a negativc impact on each client and result
in increased fees and costs to you. For example, as notcd above, ifa new frm is
eDSaSed, attomeys fiom that ncw firm might require some additional timc to ,.gct up
to speed" on the matter, uAich would likety rcsult in increased fees and costs.
If the City wishes, it may certainly consult indepcndcnt counsel to furthcr assess this
matcr and thc requested waiver contained in this letter.

Given the number of cities that we aoticipate will continue their participation in any
ach'al lawsuit brought by the NRDC parties, each city will pay only a ftaction of the
cost for legal work on matters that arc common to all participating cities. The Firm
will open a joint billing number 0o which all bitted attomey time 1s recorded. The
time billed in the joint billing numbcr is split equally among the group of cities
participating in this matler and billed pusuant to cach individual client's agreed-to
ral€ structure. Thus, assuming representation of 20 cities, each city will be billed for
l/20th of the actual time to preparc pleadings commor to all cities. For example, if
the NRDC parties were to seek to augment the existing Administrativc Record by
htroducing alleged evidence of non-coopliance with current Watershed Management
Plans, then we might file ajoint opposition to such a request on behalf of all cities we

reFes€nt io the litigation. Thus, your city would be billed l/206 of the total time for
preparing and filing that joint opposition.
Bu! if any one city dropa out of thc rep'rcscntation, then the pro rata cost to each city
would increase !o a different percentage, say pos{iibly a l/l9h share of tlre total billed
amount if we e,nded up representing only 19 cities. Alternatively, if any new city
joins tbe representation, the pro rata share of each city would decrease.
We believe that wE will bc able to vigorously and economically reprcsent the City in
conoectios with this threarcned lawsuit. If you have any questions, please do not
hesitate to contact me.
If this letter meets with your approval, we would appreciafe it if you could please
retm an executed copy to us at your carlicst convenience.

Vernon Community Fund Grant Committee
Prospective Grand Committee Member lnterest Form
Susie Ybarra - Resident Attachment
I am interested in being a member of the vernon community Fund Grant committee and ask
that you consider me for the open seat'
I have been a resid ent in the city of vernon over 40 years and participated in savings Vernon
from being dissolved in 2011. I know the importance of the vernon community Fund and
continued execution ofthe Good Neighbor Program with our surrounding cities' Since Aug 29,
2011, when the senate voted no to AB 45, our family made a commitment to be more active in
our community. What has raised my interest in this committee is my deep desire to serve the
City, it is my home.
I have recently retired from a financial institution as a SeniorVice President and I am a licensed
project Manager Professional (PMP) which has provided me experience on planning and
execution of new products and services. I have had various managers and leadership positions
with a Master's of Arts in Management (MAOM), and have volunteered and encourage our
family members to support Vernon and surrounding community.
My only limitation is that I care for a toddler and elementary school grandchildren which begins
at 12:30 pm daily, so lcan only attend mornin8 meetings.

RE: Vernon Business & Industry Commisslon Form
Qualifications & Reason lor Interest in Serving on the Commission
Dear Lilia:
Having served on various committees in the past, I have a vested interest in this community as it has been one of
my primary places ofbusiness over the last several years.
Heger Industrial is a full service industrial real estate company providing brokerage, property management,
investment and consulting services. For nearly six (6) decades, we have helped business owners, prop€rty
owners and investors achieve the greaiest value of industrial and special-use real estate throughout the City of
Vemon.
As a result ofmy business, I am actively walking the streets and meeting with local businesses and property
owners on a weekly basis. It is easy for me to understand the imponance ofhaving a City that can assist,
support and service the companies and people who live and work here.
The City ofVemon serves as an excellent place for companies (large & small) as well as employeeVemployers
to thrive and provides the goods and scrvices that affect the entire nation. I have prided myself and my business
in working with local companies that alrcady reside in the City ofVemon as well as bringing new businesses
into the City. Some of these companies included Morgan Fabrics, Five Four Group (Young & Reckless
Apparel), Fresh American Produce, Jaya Apparel, Melissa's Produce and ARKA Properties Group.
I thank you in advance for your considention and hope to have ihe opponuniry to serve ofthe Vemon Business
and Industry Commission.
Please feel free to contact me anytime with any questions you may have. I can be reached at my office at 323-
727-ll44,my cell phone 818-2148-4885 or by email !g j@hggl4gLEEi4Lssm

Quality Act C'CEQA") because such are not a "project" as that term is defined in the CEQA

and even if it were a project, it would still be exempt in accordance with Section
15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a significant
effect on the environment; and
B. Conduct a discussion regarding the results of the Tenant Relocation Suwey; and
C. Proceed with the Vemon Housing Commission's recommendation to sell the two
remaining City-owned housing units located at 6010 Oak Street and 2915 E. 60s Place in
the City of Huntington Park; and
D. Authorize staff to designate the proceeds from the sale of the two Huntington Park unis
solely for capital improvements and other projects related to the existing housing stock in
the City of Vemon.
Background

Remodel Project. In October 2016, City staff conducted the Tenant Relocation Survey ("Survey")
and personally, hand-delivered the survey to the following housing units:
o 3361 Fruitland Avenue. 3365 Fruitland Avenueo 4321Furlong Placeo 4f24 Furlong Placeo 4325 Furlong Placeo 4328 Furlong Place
The results of the Survey have been summarized in the attached Tenant Relocation Survey Results.
The City received six out of the six sr.rveys sent out to the addresses listed above. Based on the
assessment of the Survey results, it has been determined that five of the six tenants in non-
remodeled units are willing to relocate, either temporarily or permanently to another unit. Of those
five tenants, three indicated a preference in permanently relocating to the remodeled housing unit
located at 3353 Fruitland Avenue. Two tenants have an interest in temporarily moving to the 3353
Fruitland unit and one tenant is interested in a temporary relocation to the two-bedroom apartment
located at 3376 E. 50th Street. Two tenants are interested in relocating to a different City-owned
unit in Vemon that may become available at a later time. One tenant has no interest in either a
temporary or a permanent relocation to any unit. None of the tenants surveyed had any interest in
relocating to either of the condominiums in the City of Huntington Park, whether temporarily or
permanently. The Tenant Relocation Survey and the results of the Survey are included as
Attachments I and 2, respectively.
As the results of the Survey indicate, the majority of the tenants surveyed are interested in a
permanent relocation. In order to occupy the unit at 3353 Fruitland Avenue, staff is proposing to
ask the Vemon Housing Commission to conduct a lottery since there is more than one tenant
interested in this unit. The lottery would be held at the next Housing Commission meeting
scheduled for November 9,2016.
Additionally, at the October 4,2016 City Council meeting, the Council was presented with a
recommendation from the Vemon Housing Commission to sell the two remaining City-owned
units located at 6010 Oak Street and 2915 E. 60'L Place in the City of Huntington Park. At that
meeting, staff was directed to conduct a formal survey ofall tenants in the non-remodeled units to
ascertain if any tenants had an interest in relocating to the subject units in Huntington Park. The
results have confirmed that none ofthe tenants surveyed are interested in moving to the Huntington
Park units. Staff is now asking the City Council for authorization to proceed with the sale of the
two City-owned housing units in the City of Huntington Park.
If the City Council concurs, staff would retain a real estate agent to coordinate an appraisal to
assess the current market value for the townhomes, similar to what occurred prior to the recent sale
ofthe Stafford homes. It is proposed that once sold, revenues from the sale would be allocated for
future remodeling and programmed for capital improvements on the existing City-owned housing
stock.

Fiscal Imoact
Based on the cost for the full remodel of the unit located at 4323 Furlong Place, it would be
anticipated that any subsequent remodels would be no more than $150,000. There are sufficient
firnds available in the Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Budget to complete two more remodeling projects.
Additionally, upon the tenant's relocation to a remodeled unit, the remodeled, vacant unit would
immediately begin generating revenue at the current rental rate and the non-remodeled, vacant urit
would be next in line for the Housing Remodel Project. Any costs associated with a permanent
relocation would include preparing any remodeled unit that becomes available for occupancy,
which on average costs approximately $500 per unit and relocating costs ranging from $1,000 to
$2,000 per move, dependent on the size ofthe housing unit.
If the City Council supports the recommendation to proceed with the divestment of the two units
in Hrurtington Park, the anticipated revenue would be approximately $400,000 to $600,000, minus
any expenses associated with the sales transaction ofthe two units. As noted above, if City Council
elects to sell the subject properties, staff will acquire the services of an independent real estate
agent and appraiser, similar to the process used during the recent sale of the Stafford units
implemented earlier this year. The City cunently expends approximately $6,240 annually for the
home owner's association dues, plus costs related to the routine repair and maintenance for both
units. Additionally, ifthe housing units are sold, the City will no longer incur expenses associated
with maintenance of the townhomes and home owner association fees.
