discussions, and findings regarding any matter before it tonight. The City Council provides this public opportunity for free
speech, but the City Council categorically rejects comments from anyone, including the public, that are of a discriminatory

ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS
11. Approved Huntington Beach 2017 Strategic Plan Objectives
City Manager Fred Wilson provided some background information for determining the 2017 Strategic
Plan Objectives.
Councilmember Peterson stated his opinion that the Strategic Plan Objectives are important, but that the
process is flawed because public input may be restricted due to a week-day meeting. It is his opinion
that these Objectives should be presented in a Study Session or Council meeting for more detailed
discussions, including implementation costs and to allow for public comments.
Councilmember Hardy suggested that the mid-summer meeting should be a half-day and more budget-
focused. She believes that the strategic planning meeting is a way for the City Council to express to staff
their priorities and get staff feedback, and it may be time to look at a new facilitator.
Councilmember Semeta expressed her support for Strategic Plan Objectives, but agrees with
Councilmember Peterson that there may be a better process. She appreciates the informality, and would
like to see more direct Councilmember input on specific objectives and a more detailed agenda.

Councilmember O'Connell and City Manager Wilson discussed that the meeting agenda was published,
but that holding the meeting during the day may have been a factor in the low public attendance.
Councilmember O'Connell agreed that Strategic Plan Objectives are very important and that he is open
to any changes that will improve the process.
Mayor Pro Tem Posey shared his opinion that this meeting is important and meeting with staff in an
informal setting allows for important dialogue. He also believes it is important for the public to be
involved and is open to changes in meeting day and time if it will improve public participation.
Mayor Delgleize expressed her appreciation for this opportunity to exchange thoughts and ideas. Having
attended these meetings for a number of years even before her election, she believes that many more
members of the public were in attendance this year as compared to previous years.
Councilmember Hardy stated that the Ad Hoc Strategic Plan Committee (comprised of the Mayor, Mayor
Pro Tem and herself) should meet soon to discuss meeting time and day concerns, the facilitator, and
planning for public comments at the beginning and end of the meeting.
A motion was made by Peterson, second Posey to approve the January 26, 2017, Strategic Objectives
as contained within Attachment 1.

Prior to discussion, Councilmember O'Connell recused himself from participation due to a financial

Councilmember Peterson explained that this item is submitted due to some concerns about the
Downtown Business Improvement District's (BID) finances.
Councilmember Peterson defined "timely manner" for review of financial statements as 60 days, and
asked that the Finance Commission include recommendations for financial reporting or process changes
they deem necessary as a result of this review.
Mayor Pro Tem Posey added that he would like to see improvements the BID has produced in the report.

and that the BID is following proper accounting procedures.
A motion was made by Peterson, second Posey to direct the Finance Commission to review the past
three (3) years of finances of the Downtown BID and further if they deem necessary. Return to the City

of 20 AR-15 Patrol Rifle s ' optic s ' fla shlights ' magazine s ' carry sling s ' and nylon bags; and '
B) Authorize the Chief of Police to use these funds to purchase the 20 complete AR-15 Patrol Rifles.
Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve the appropriation and direct staff accordingly.
Analysis :
The Huntington Beach Police Department has an immediate need to replace several failing or
outdated "AR-15" Patrol Rifles while also achieving a long-term goal of making more Patrol Rifles
available to our officers working patrol.
Patrol Rifles are distributed to officers working in the Patrol Bureau to better prepare them for an
encounter with suspect(s) wearing body armor ' armed with superior firepower ' and high capacity
magazines. Recent attacks on police officers and high profile public location s ' such a s the San
Bernardino shooting ' have caused our department to evaluate the need for additional rifles in the
field.
Direct attacks on police officers have become more deadly a s we are seeing an increased use of
high powered rifles by suspects with both military and private training. Recent events across
America have demonstrated the vulnerability of police officers with officer deaths involving firearms
up 72% in 2016.

â AB 250 (Gonzalez Fletcher) State Coastal Conservancy Lower Cost Coastal
Accommodations Program
Existing law establishes the State Coastal Conservancy in state government, and prescribes
the membership and functions and duties of the conservancy with regard to the protection,
preservation, and enhancement of special coastal lands in the coastal zone. This bill would
require the Conservancy to develop and implement a specified Lower Cost Coastal
Accommodations Program intended to facilitate improvement of existing, and development
of new, lower cost accommodations within the coastal zone and a specific geographic area
along the coast adjacent to the coastal zone. The bill would require the conservancy to
prepare a lower cost coastal accommodations plans containing specific information relating
to specific opportunities to improve existing, and generate new, lower cost coastal
accommodations, and to update the plan every five years.

â SB 720 (Allen) Government Tort Liability: Beach Fire Pits
Existing law prescribes the tort liability of public entities and establishes a process for
making claims against public entities. Existing law specifically immunizes a public entity in
connection with certain public property, including for an injury caused by a natural condition
of unimproved property. The law as currently written deems a beach to be in a natural and
unimproved condition despite the presence or absence of safety services such as lifeguards
and beach clean-up services. The current law immunizes a public entity from liability to a
person participating in a hazardous recreational activity. This bill would immunize a public
entity and its employees for any damage or injury to a person or property as a result of a fire
or the remnants of a fire that arises from the use of a fire pit, fire ring, fire circle, or barbecue
grill, located in an area designated for that use, at a park, beach or recreational area owned
or controlled by the entity.
The Intergovernmental Relations Committee approved a oppose position on AB 250 and a support
position on SB 720. The City's State Advocate, Townsend Public Affairs, was present and
discussed with the IRC legislation recently introduced with potential interest to the City. Since it is
the beginning of the Legislative session, the vast majority of the legislation is currently in a 30-day
hold prior to being assigned to an appropriate Legislative committee for a hearing. Additionally,
many introduced bills are considered "spot bills" and do not contain more than a generic label. As
such, further recommendations were not considered by the IRC and the IRC will work closely with
Staff and Townsend Public Affairs as more information becomes available.

law requires that all land and other real property to be acquired by or
for any state agency, except for specified state agencies including the
State Coastal Conservancy with respect to acceptance of offers to
dedicate public accessways made pursuant to the California Coastal
Act of 1976, be acquired by the state board.

23 Chapter 10. Lower Cost Coastal Accommodations
24 Program
25
26 31411. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
27 (a) The right of access to the coast is guaranteed to the people
28 of California by the California Constitution and the California
29 Coastal Act of 1976 (Division 20 (commencing with Section
30 30000)), which requires that coastal development be regulated,
31 and public access rights to our state’s beaches be protected.
32 (b) California’s Parks Forward Commission has emphasized
33 the need to expand access to parks and public lands throughout
34 California to ensure that all Californians and visitors to the state,
35 including those from low-income and underserved communities,
36 are able to benefit from outdoor experiences.
37 (c) Lower cost accommodations, including hotels, motels,
38 hostels, and camping opportunities, are essential elements of coastal
39 and park access because they enable Californians and visitors from
40 a variety of backgrounds, including those of low and moderate
xB -35- Item 5. - 6
99
— 5 — AB 250
1 income, to enjoy California’s beaches and parks and experience
2 the full range of recreational, educational, spiritual, and other
3 experiences offered.
4 (d) A lack of affordable accommodations remains a barrier to
5 coastal access. California’s historic supply of lower cost coastal
6 accommodations has been reduced, and continues to be diminished,
7 as a result of high coastal property values and economic pressures
8 to develop new coastal accommodations that are too expensive to
9 be affordable to most visitors.
10 (e) California should invest in new strategies and partnerships
11 to improve the availability of lower cost accommodations along
12 the coast, particularly for low-income and middle-income families.
13 A strategic program to provide affordable accommodations in
14 appropriate areas of our coastal parks and public lands can play
15 an important role in improving public access to the coast. California
16 should also support innovative pilot projects that enable the state
17 to partner with the private sector to provide access.
18 31412. (a) The conservancy shall develop and implement a
19 Lower Cost Coastal Accommodations Program to facilitate
20 improvement of existing, and the development of new, lower cost
21 accommodations within the coastal zone and a one mile area along
22 the coast adjacent to the coastal zone. In implementing the program,
23 the conservancy may undertake projects and award grants, and
24 shall be guided by the lower cost accommodations plan required
25 to be developed pursuant to Section 31413.
26 (b) The program shall include both of the following:
27 (1) Clear and measurable objectives.
28 (2) Implementation measures designed to ensure that new or
29 improved accommodation projects supported by the program will
30 be affordable and available to low-income and middle-income
31 families, nonprofit organizations, and public entities that provide
32 young or at-risk populations with education, service learning,
33 healthy living, recreational, or similar opportunities.
34 (c) The conservancy shall take both of the following actions to
35 develop and implement the program:
36 (1) Consult and collaborate with the Department of Parks and
37 Recreation, the California Coastal Commission, local and regional
38 park agencies, open-space districts, and other public agencies
39 regarding development of the accommodations plan and selection

2 cost coastal accommodations.
3 (2) Engage with parks, conservation, and community groups to
4 ensure that program activities reflect and address community needs
5 and interests.
6 31413. (a) The conservancy shall prepare a lower cost coastal

8 following elements:
9 (1) A description of specific opportunities to improve existing

14 parks, lands held by harbor or open-space districts, and public
15 lands not yet designated as parks.
16 (2) Estimates of daily occupancy or rental rates, based on
17 geographic location, seasonality, and other relevant factors, that
18 the conservancy will use for purposes of identifying existing lower
19 cost accommodations as well as potential future projects for
20 program support. Any estimates developed pursuant to this
21 paragraph shall not be interpreted to conflict with any rights and
22 responsibilities of the Department of Parks and Recreation to
23 establish rental rates or fees for accommodations within its
24 jurisdiction.
25 (3) Data and analysis regarding the existing supply of lower
26 cost coastal accommodations within the program area, as well as
27 an analysis of the supply of low-cost accommodations relative to
28 population within 150 miles of the California coast.
29 (4) An assessment of demand for, and opportunities to establish,
30 new or expanded lower cost accommodations within the program
31 area.
32 (5) Criteria for prioritizing investment of program funds in
33 accommodation projects, such as any applicable legal requirements
34 that may apply to those funds, geography, existing disparities in
35 park or coastal access, availability of public agency or nonprofit
36 partners, adequacy of existing infrastructure and services, and
37 financial feasibility.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL 'S DIGEST
SB 720, as introduced, Allen. Government tort liability: immunity:
beach fire pits.
Existing law prescribes the tort liability of public entities, as defined,
and establishes a process for making claims in this regard. Existing law
specifically immunizes a public entity in connection with certain public
property, including for an injury caused by a natural condition of
unimproved property. Existing law deems a beach to be in a natural
and unimproved condition despite the presence or absence of safety
services such as lifeguards and beach cleanup services. Existing law
immunizes a public entity from liability to a person participating in a
hazardous recreational activity, as defined.
The bill would immunize a public entity and its employees for any
damage or injury to a person or property as a result of a fire or the
remnants of a fire that arises from the use of a fire pit, fire ring, fire
circle, or barbecue grill, located in an area designated for that use, at a
park, beach, or recreational area, owned or controlled by the entity.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.

SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Travis K. Hopkins, PE, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. 2017-08 declaring Weeds and Rubbish a Nuisance on
Specific Properties and fixing May 1, 2017 at 6:00 p.m. for Hearing Protests and
Objections to the Abatement thereof
Statement of Issue :
Annually, the City conducts weed and rubbish abatement as needed. As the first step in the weed
abatement process, state law requires the adoption of a resolution declaring weeds and rubbish on
specific properties to be a public nuisance.
Adopt Resolution No. 2017-08, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach
Finding and Declaring that Certain Weeds Growing in the City, and Rubbish and Refuse Deposited
on Public Ways and Private Property are a Public Nuisance; and Fixing the Time for Hearing
Protests and Objections to the Abatement Thereof."
Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve the resolution and direct staff to take a different course of action.
Analysis :
The California Government Code includes a provision allowing local governments to declare weeds
and rubbish a public nuisance. Pursuant to this provision, the City of Huntington Beach has
adopted Chapter 8.16 Weed Abatement into the Municipal Code. The chapter requires that "all
persons owning any real property within the City keep said property free from weeds ... or other
flammable materials that endanger public safety by creating a fire hazard." In accordance with
Section 8.16.020 Nuisance Declared, the City Attorney's office has prepared a resolution declaring
that certain weeds, rubbish, and refuse deposited on specific properties are a public nuisance, with
provisions for posting of notice and abatement of said nuisance. The resolution fixes May 1, 2017,
at 6:00 p.m., as the date and time for the hearing of objections to the abatement of said nuisance.
Exhibit A of the resolution identifies the privately owned, undeveloped properties that are currently
or potentially in violation of the Municipal Code.

SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson ' City Manager
PREPARED BY: Travis K. Hopkins ' PE ' Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. 2017-10 adopting the Measure M2 Expenditure Report to
comply with Renewed Measure M2 funding eligibility for the City of Huntington
Beach
Recommended Action :
Adopt Resolution No. 2017-10 ' "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach
Adopting the Measure M2 Expenditure Report for the City of Huntington Beach."
Alternative Action(s):
Do not adopt the Resolution and forego Measure M2 funding eligibility. This action would result in
the loss of approximately $3.3 million for the current fiscal year and potential grant funding for street
improvements.
Analysis :
Renewed Measure M2 is the one-half cent sales tax approved by the Orange County voters in
November 2006 for countywide transportation improvements. The multibillion dollar program
extends the original Measure M (1991-2011) program for another 30 years. All Orange County
eligible jurisdictions receive a percentage of the sales tax revenue based on population ' Master
Plan of Arterial Highways centerline miles and share of countywide taxable sales. These funds can
be used for local projects ' as well as ongoing maintenance of local streets.
There are no competitive criteria to meet ' but there are administrative requirements to maintain
eligibility to receive funding. A key requirement is to adopt the Measure M2 Expenditure Report
each year within six-months of the end of the local jurisdiction's fiscal year. The City of Huntington
Beach Measure M2 Report for fiscal year 2015 -16 complies with this requirement. The report
accounts for all M2 revenues ' developer/traffic impact fees ' and funds expended by the City
towards street improvements ' rehabilitation ' and maintenance.

REQUEST FOR . CITY COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 3/6/2017
SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Antonia Graham, Assistant to the City Manager
SUBJECT: Approve and authorize execution of Amendment No. 2 to the Professional
Services Contract with Townsend Public Affairs extending the term for one-year
and adding additional compensation in the amount of $48,000 for a total contract
amount not to exceed $192,000 for State Lobbyist Services; and, approve and
authorize the execution of a one-year Professional Services Contract with
Townsend Public Affairs in the amount of $24,000 for Federal Lobbyist Services
Statement of Issue :
City Council consideration is requested for Amendment No. 2 to the Professional Services Contract
with Townsend Public Affairs to extend the term to provide State lobbyist services and a new
Professional Services Contract with Townsend Public Affairs to provide Federal lobbyist services.
Recommended Action :
A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute "Amendment No. 2 to Professiona
Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and Townsend Public Affairs for State
Lobbyist Services" in an amount not to exceed $48,000 for one year; and,
B) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute "Professional Services Contract
Between the City of Huntington Beach and Townsend Public Affairs for Federal Lobbyist Services"
in an amount not to exceed $24,000 for one year.
Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve and direct staff accordingly.
Analysis :
In October 2013, Requests for Proposals (RFP) for both State and Federal lobbyist services were
issued. In March 2014, City Council awarded a one-year State lobbyist contract to Townsend
Public Affairs (TPA). On January 21, 2015, the Intergovernmental Relations Committee (IRC)
considered an extension to the TPA contract and recommended a two-year extension to the
contract. TPAs existing State lobbyist contract is set to expire on March 17, 2017. At the January
25, 2017 IRC meeting, Council liaisons voted to recommend the extension of the TPA agreement
for one additional year. TPA has assisted the City with legislative advocacy, grant application
assistance (e.g. letters of support, strategic assistance, etc.), and has assisted with advocacy trips
to Sacramento.

Meeting Date: 3/6/2017
In addition to State advocacy services, TPA previously served as the City's federal lobbyist from
February 17, 2015, through February 17, 2016. Upon expiration of the TPA Federal contract, IRC
took a "wait and see" approach until after the federal election in November 2016. At the January
25, 2017, meeting the members of IRC voted to recommend a one-year Federal contract with TPA,
which included membership in the newly created Concerned Coastal Communities Coalition. The
coalition, coupled with the change in administration at the Federal level, could require more ongoing
positive engagement with our Federal representatives and Federal agencies, therefore,
necessitating an agreement for Federal lobbying assistance. TPA proposes an advocacy plan that
is complementary of our State efforts and TPA has a local presence in Washington D.C. The
monthly fee of $2,000 per month includes the $600 per month Concerned Coastal Communities
Coalition fee.

Analysis :
The City issued a Request for Proposals for public sector third-party claims administration services
(TPA). The invitation to bid was posted on the City's PlanetBid website on December 15, 2016.
According to the RFP, a qualified TPA was required to demonstrate that all services will be
performed in a manner commensurate with the highest standards of professionals in the industry;
have a minimum of five (5) years experience administering claims for a public entity with a
population of at least 50,000 and that provides public safety (Police and Fire) services; and the TPA
was required to have an electronic database capable of producing specialized ad hoc reports in
addition to any reports required by any reporting entities, such as the excess insurance carriers.
Finally, the TPA was to demonstrate the ability to successfully manage a transition from the current
TPA and provide their plan to ensure they are able to achieve this requirement.
There were four respondents: Carl Warren & Company, Hazelrigg Claims Management Services,
York Risk Services Group, and AdminSure.

REQUEST FOR . CITY COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 3/6/2017
SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Travis K. Hopkins, PE, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Award and authorize execution of a three-year contract in an amount not to
exceed $6.21 million dollars with Siemens Industry Inc., for the acceptance,
energy efficiency retrofit, and maintenance of streetlights to be acquired from
Southern California Edison (SCE); and, authorize transfer of funds
Statement of Issue :
On October 5, 2015, the City Council approved the purchase of approximately 11,000 streetlights
from Southern California Edison (SCE), at great financial benefit to the City. Subsequent actions by
SCE and the Public Utilities Commission approving the purchase have put the City in the position to
acquire the lights and begin local maintenance. The City desires to retain the services of a qualified
contractor to assist in completing the acquisition, retrofitting the lights to energy efficient LED
technology, and with on-going maintenance services of the newly acquired assets.
Funding for the Streetlight Acquisition Cut-over portion of the contract ($290,000) is available in the
Energy Efficiency Fund account 80787015. Funding for the LED Retrofit portion of the contract
($3,670,000) is available in Energy Efficiency Fund accounts 80787016 ($3,000,000) and
80787015 ($670,000). These components are estimated to be completed by the end of Fiscal Year
2017/18. Funding contained in the Energy Efficiency Fund (Fund 807) is not from the General
Fund and is comprised of loan proceeds obtained from City Council approved low-interest rate
loans provided by the California Energy Commission and the State of California's Infrastructure
Bank.
Staff is also seeking authorization to transfer and appropriate $208,000 from the Energy Efficiency
Fund (Fund 807) to the General Fund Public Work Department's account 10085304 to cover the
maintenance portion of the contract for the remainder of the fiscal year. Subsequent fiscal years'
maintenance costs of approximately $650,000 annually will be included in future budgets. These
costs will be offset by future energy savings and streetlight rate reductions within the streetlight
service accounts and the rebates realized through the LED retrofit program.
Overall, the financial benefits are estimated to exceed $10 million in savings over the next 20 years.
xs -123- Item 11. - 1
Dept. ID PW17-0013 Page 2 of 4
Meeting Date: 3/6/2017
Recommended Action :
A) Award a contract to Siemens Industry Inc for the professional and maintenance services of
streetlights not to exceed $6.21 million and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the
agreement; and,
B) Authorize the transfer of funds from the Energy Efficiency fund (807) in the amount of $208,000
to General Fund account 10085304.64620.
Alternative Action(s):
A) Not award the contract to Siemens Industry Inc and direct staff to pursue other contract
services. This action would likely delay the purchase and acquisition of lights from SCE and
adversely impact the City's opportunity to receive significant energy efficiency rebates; or
B) Other actions as identified by the City Council
Analysis :
The process of considering the potential purchase of streetlights from Southern California Edison
(SCE) began in 2012 when the SCE amended their policy and agreed to consider requests from
local agencies to purchase streetlights for local maintenance. The City retained consultant services
to evaluate the financial aspects of a purchase which resulted in the completion of an Investment
Grade Audit (IGA). That IGA confirmed that purchasing the lights would result in substantial
benefits to the City and allow the City to pursue more energy efficient lighting systems that would
also result in significant long-term savings versus continued rising payments to SCE. Overall, the
IGA confirmed that the purchase, energy efficiency upgrades and assumption of maintenance
responsibilities would result in a several benefits to the City by reducing overall costs for the
streetlights, improve the performance of the streetlight system and provide significant future
opportunities for revenue by using the streetlight infrastructure for services like wireless
communication. The financial benefits are estimated to exceed $10 million in savings over the next
20 years. Attachment 2 presents the financial analysis that was prepared as part of the final IGA.
Purchasing the streetlights and taking over maintenance results in a significant reduction in the fees
paid to SCE based on the reduction in the tariff. Further, fees paid to SCE would be reduced as a
result of energy efficiency fixture changes, reducing the amount paid for energy use each month.
The change in tariffs for the 11,000 streetlights after converting to LED fixtures would save the City
approximately $875,000 annually. Some of these savings would be redirected annually for
maintenance by the City through the use of contract services. The expected net cost of
maintenance to the City is approximately $650,000. The remaining net savings can be used for the
repayment of loans for the purchase and LED retrofit of the lights.
Staff began the process to select a qualified contracting team to provide the services needed to
navigate the acquisition process with SCE, manage and perform the fixture replacement process
and provide on-going maintenance services for the lights. The City does not employ sufficient staff
in our Signal and Lighting Maintenance section to be able to provide the maintenance services that
will be needed with the acquisition of 11,000 streetlights. Working with Purchasing and the City
Attorney's office, Staff completed a qualifications-based proposal process (that is, choosing a firm
based on the overall qualifications reflective of their ability to perform the identified tasks) to identify
the best qualified team for the project that also included consideration of the cost of various project
services in the evaluation. At the completion of the process, Siemens Industry Inc. was determined
to be the preferred team due to their combination of experience, resources, knowledge in the
energy field, and cost effectiveness. Specifically, Siemens demonstrated the best overall
experience, resources and local presence for the on-going maintenance elements of the effort. The
team also has excellent experience in providing the resources and experience necessary to
manage all aspects of the LED retrofit effort including fixture selection, rebate processing,
Item 11. - 2 xs -124-
Dept. ID PW17-0013 Page 3 of 4
Meeting Date: 3/6/2017
purchasing, disposal and fixture installation. The Siemens team also provided a seamless
approach between the different aspects of the project that was unmatched by any of the other
teams.
The City received proposals from seven (7) teams through an openly advertised Request for
Proposal process. Six staff members reviewed and analyzed the seven proposals each providing
different insight into the pros and cons of each proposal and project methodology. Following initial
reviews, three firms were selected for further evaluation. This included interviews and firm
presentations whereby staff further analyzed each firms experience in relation to 1) maintenance
(routine and emergency), 2) customer service, and 3) LED retrofits. Once completed, reference
checks were conducted and follow-up questions were asked. The final evaluations were very
competitive among the 3 firms, and factors considered included experience conducting similar
activities, proposed responsiveness to service calls to include operations of a call center, ability to
work with SCE to obtain rebates, and demonstrated experience to fulfill our needs. Costing was
based on various factors and was not one overall, simple bid. However, after taking all items into
consideration to include price, the final rankings of the final 3 firms were as follows:
1. Siemens Industry Inc. team
2. Southern Contracting team
3. Willdan team
The recommended contract award is a key step that enables the City to pursue the final stage of
completing the streetlight acquisition effort. It has taken more than four years of effort to reach this
milestone: from the initial stages of gathering information, to carefully analyzing the practical
financial, operational, and community implications of acquiring these streetlights. SCE is mobilized
and ready to begin the transfer process within the next few weeks.
Funding for different aspects of the project and the contract terms are complex, with use restrictions
and "cost of money" elements associated with different funding sources. For contract purposes,
Siemens will have two distinct "one time" tasks to be completed.
The first will be to go through the entire City with SCE staff to review each of the 11,000 streetlights
that will be acquired. This has been referred to as the "acceptance" process. Originally it was
referred to as "acquisition" — a term that was changed to differentiate it from the purchase process
from SCE. This task should take less than 12 months to complete from the start of the contract.
The second task is the purchase and installation of energy efficient LED lighting for each of the
acquired lights — the "retrofit" stage. This process will begin shortly after the lights are officially
acquired from SCE and should be completed within 14 months of the start of the contract.
The third stage of the contract begins as soon as the streetlights are acquired from SCE — the
maintenance phase. Siemens will be responsible for providing all maintenance services to the
acquired streetlights before and after the LED retrofit process takes place.
The contract is structured to provide an annual budget for the maintenance services corresponding
with our Fiscal Year. Maintenance services will only be provided for six months of FY2016/17 so a
reduced budget allocation is requested. Additional funding requests will be submitted as part of the
budget process each year.
The maintenance service contract is structured as an initial three-year contract with two optional
one-year extensions for a maximum of five-years. The extensions can only be exercised by the
City with mutual approval from Siemens. The total cost of services for the base three-year term is
estimated to be $6.21 million including the acceptance and LED retrofit elements.

Statement of Issue :
On February 22, 2017, the Intergovernmental Relations Committee (IRC) met to discuss the status
of the California Water Fix and California Eco Restore Project. The IRC recommended that the
item be moved to City Council for further discussion to determine if the City should take a support
position.
Financial Impact :
There is no impact to the current fiscal year budget. Metropolitan Water District of Southern
California (MET) has indicated that, if implemented, they will increase water rates to finance the
project and MET estimates an impact of approximately $5.00 to each customers' monthly water bill.

Meeting Date: 3/6/2017
MWDOC has been reaching out to the many Orange County cities and water agencies in an effort
to raise awareness and support for the $15 billion Project, which will construct two parallel 40 foot
diameter tunnels from the Sacramento River, under the Sacramento — San Joaquin Bay Delta, to
the existing State Water Project intake station on the south side of the Delta. The Project is
intended to increase the reliability of the water supply from the Delta while addressing many of the
environmental issues that are impacting this region of the State.
The California Water Fix is approaching the final stages for its permits as well as finalizing its
environmental documents (EIR/EIS and Record of Decision). The City has been requested b y
MWDOC to assist in raising the profile and level of support for this program and to convey a
position of support for this critical source of our water supply.
Representatives from MWDOC will be making a comprehensive presentation at the City Council
meeting.

Financial Impact :
If the City does not re-establish the collection of PEG fees from our cable providers, the City could
lose the PEG fees that are remitted to PCTA quarterly and are used to enhance access for our
residents to government and educational programming and access to City Council meetings and
other government services.

CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
REQUEST FOR . CITY COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 3/6/2017
SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Antonia Graham, Assistant to the City Manager
SUBJECT: Approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4130 re-establishing Fees for State
Franchised Video Service Providers as part of the City's membership on the joint
powers authority of the Public Cable Television Authority (PCTA)
Statement of Issue :
As part of our membership on the joint powers authority of the Public Cable Television Authority
(PCTA), every ten (10) years the City must approve an Ordinance that reauthorizes local
governments to establish and collect Public, Educational, and Government Access (PEG) fees from
a cities' cable and video TV operators. The City Council previously adopted Ordinance No. 3767
on April 16, 2007.
Recommended Action :
Approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4130, "An Ordinance of the City of Huntington Beach Re-
Establishing Fees for State Franchised Video Service Providers."
Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve the attached Ordinance, which would mean the City may not be able to collect the
State Franchise fees for Public, Education, and Government Access (PEG) and direct staff
accordingly.
Analysis :
Local governments have traditionally received compensation for the use of the public right-of-way
by cable television companies for the provision of video services in a community. Currently, the
City of Huntington Beach receives 5% of the gross revenues from Frontier Communications
(formerly Verizon) and Spectrum/Charter (formerly Time Warner Cable) through its membership in
the Public Cable Television Authority (PCTA). PCTA is a joint powers authority that includes the
cities of Fountain Valley, Stanton, and Westminster. Franchise free revenues received by the City
of Huntington Beach totaled $3,037,641.29 in calendar year 2016; these funds are deposited
quarterly into the General Fund. Federal and California law prohibits the collection of franchise fees
on Internet or telephone services provided by cable television companies.

Federal law also allows for local franchise authorities to negotiate additional revenues from cable
operators for the support of PEG access channels such as HBTV-3. Typical contemporary
franchise agreements establish additional funding for local cable companies to provide capital and
operational support for PEG access through production studios, video equipment, and production
operational support. The existing franchise agreements with Frontier Communications and
Spectrum/Charter do not currently require PEG access channel support with the exception of public
access channel management. In 2016, PCTA received approximately $617,000 in PEG fees.
In September 2006, then Governor Schwarzenegger signed AB 2987, Digital Infrastructure and
Video Competition Act of 2006 (DIVCA), establishing state franchising of wireline video service
providers. This law allows competitive video service providers, including local telephone
companies seeking to provide service, to obtain franchise directly through the state starting April
2007. This law also contains provisions for the conversion of incumbent cable television service
providers to statewide franchises.
DIVCA Section 5870 states that the fee to support PEG channel facilities "may be reauthorized
upon the expiration of the state franchise," but does not explicitly require local agencies to
reauthorize these fees via ordinance. Because Section 5870 refers to an ordinance elsewhere —
and because substantial funding could be lost unless the 1% fee is reauthorized - Rutan & Tucker
(the firm that represents PCTA) has advised PCTA to proceed with the reauthorization via an
ordinance, and also encourages each PCTA member city to establish a similar ordinance. The
ordinance will become effective 30 days following adoption. Failure to take such action may result
in the loss of PEG revenue.
The 1% PEG support fee will continue be used to offset PCTA expenditures on government access
programming and/or augment additional government access programming. At any given time, the
PCTA Board could vote on directing the PEG funds directly to each member city as opposed to the
current practice.
