CONSENT CALENDAR Mayor Semeta pulled Item #11, Councilmember Peterson pulled Items #8, #12 and #15, and Councilmember Posey pulled Item #10 for further discussion. 7. 20-2008 Approved and Adopted Minutes A motion was made by Posey, second Carr to approve and adopt the City Council/Public Financing Authority regular meeting minutes dated November 2, 2020, and the City Council special meeting minutes dated November 5, 2020, as written and on file in the office of the City Clerk. The motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Posey, Delgleize, Carr, Semeta, Peterson, Hardy, and Brenden NOES: None 8. 20-1970 Adopted Resolution No. 2020-75 modifying the salary of the elected City Clerk Councilmember Peterson pulled the item to share his opinion that it is not appropriate to give an 11.5% raise in these economic times. Councilmember Delgleize and City Clerk Estanislau discussed her appointment four years ago to the position, and the Council's resolution at that time to set her salary at the position's lowest level. Councilmember Posey stated for the public's benefit that other elected department heads requested and were granted salary increases last year, and he commended City Clerk Estanislau for not joining that effort. He further stated that the amount being considered is immaterial to the General Fund budget, and therefore has his support. Councilmember Hardy explained her thoughts and policies that have guided her through her years as a Councilmember, and considering she voted no to salary increases requested earlier in the year, she cannot support this request only due to the continued economic environment. Councilmember Delgleize expressed understanding Councilmember Hardy's comments, and explained that she sees the City Clerk's office as being run very efficiently, and the service of processing passport applications which most cities do not offer, as additional reasons for supporting this item. Councilmember Posey stated his appreciation for Councilmember Hardy's comments, and explained that City Clerk Estanislau made an exception for herself when she was appointed and requested her pay start at the bottom of the scale, and she didn't ask for an increase when other department heads did, so he still supports this item. Mayor Pro Tem Carr, in stating her support for this item, commended City Clerk Estanislau for being a great boss as evidenced by the on-point responses of her well-trained staff, and explained that the only way an elected official can get a raise is to publicly ask for it. 13 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 7 of 16 Councilmember Brenden and City Manager Chi discussed that three options are available for consideration based upon the approved salary schedule. Councilmember Brenden expressed appreciation for City Clerk Estanislau's previous salary generosity when she accepted the appointment, explained that the increases he supported earlier in the year had been negotiated in good faith before COVID-19 arrived, but under the current economic uncertainty, he cannot support approving any raise. Mayor Semeta explained her opinion that this position has been at the bottom of the scale for four years, and there is a fairness aspect in that other elected officials have already received salary increases, and stated support to move City Clerk Estanislau’s salary to the middle tier. A motion was made by Delgleize, second Carr to adopt Resolution No. 2020-75, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Modifying the Salary for the Elected City Clerk," including Exhibit "A" - Exhibit 1 of the Non-Associated Executive Management Salary Schedule, Effective November 2, 2020. The motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Posey, Delgleize, Carr, and Semeta NOES: Peterson, Hardy, and Brenden 9. 20-2004 Adopted Resolution No. 2020-76 approving the M2 Expenditure Report for the City of Huntington Beach to comply with Renewed Measure M2 funding eligibility as administered by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) A motion was made by Posey, second Carr to adopt Resolution No. 2020-76, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Concerning the Measure M2 Expenditure Report for the City of Huntington Beach." The motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Posey, Delgleize, Carr, Semeta, Peterson, Hardy, and Brenden NOES: None 10. 20-2011 Received and filed a status update on the 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) process Councilmember Posey pulled this item to discuss appeal expectations with City Attorney Gates. A motion was made by Posey, second Brenden to receive and file the Regional Housing Needs Assessment process status update. The motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Posey, Delgleize, Carr, Semeta, Peterson, Hardy, and Brenden NOES: None 14 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 8 of 16 11. 20-2019 Approved one (1) appointment and two (2) reappointments to the Harbor Commission, as recommended by City Council Liaisons, Mayor Semeta and Councilmember Peterson Mayor Semeta pulled this item to thank Mike Van Voorhis and John Ochs for agreeing to serve another term on the Harbor Commission, and to welcome Brian Griley, who is a long-time resident in Huntington Harbour, one of the first Junior Members of the Harbour Yacht Club, and a very active and generous donor to the Huntington Harbour Philharmonic which raises funds for children's music programs. A motion was made by Semeta, second Peterson to approve the appointment of Brian Griley as a Member of the Harbor Commission through December 31, 2024; and, approve the re-appointment of John Ochs as a Member of the Harbor Commission through December 31, 2024; and, approve the re- appointment of Michael Van Voorhis as a Member of the Harbor Commission through December 31, 2024. The motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Posey, Delgleize, Carr, Semeta, Peterson, Hardy, and Brenden NOES: None 12. 20-2033 Approved an Interim Extension of the Temporary Closure of the Second and Third Blocks of Main Street to Vehicular Traffic Through February 28, 2021, to Allow Restaurants and Select Retail to Serve Patrons in the Public Right-of-Way Councilmember Peterson pulled the item to state his support for having Second Block closed off, and opening up the Third Block to vehicular traffic. Councilmember Brenden stated that in acknowledging the big hit that Main Street businesses have taken this year, he proposes extending Main Street closure to the end of 2021 to provide certainty and encourage business owners to make the extra investments for safe outdoor service. Adding his opinion that extending this item to the end of 2021 will provide more opportunity for greater capacity and an opportunity to make up for the losses incurred based on the positive feedback from the public and many of the impacted business owners, he made a motion to approve the item with the extended timeline. Councilmember Hardy stated her support for an extended closure of the Second and Third Blocks of Main Street, and added her opinion that extending the time to the end of 2021 at this time does not allow for a proper discussion of the proposed extension. She therefore made a substitute motion to continue the item for further discussion to the meeting of December 21, or the first Council meeting in January. Councilmember Posey stated his support for a substitute motion that includes staff consideration to extend the hours of operation to at least 11:00 pm. Councilmember Brenden stated his support for a future discussion on extending hours of operation, and supports extending the temporary closure past February 28, 2021, in tonight's motion. 15 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 9 of 16 Mayor Pro Tem Carr stated support for having the new Council address this issue, including discussing a long-term vision for Downtown with a plan that will help those businesses be more successful. Mayor Semeta and City Manager Chi discussed options for the Third Block where it appears that many businesses are not in favor of keeping that block closed to vehicular traffic. The substitution motion made by Hardy was seconded by Delgleize to authorize the City Manager to continue the temporary closure of the second and third blocks of Main Street to vehicular traffic to accommodate outdoor dining and retail in the public right-of-way until February 28, 2021, as amended to return to Council on December 21, 2020 to discuss extending temporary closure past February 28, 2021, the extension of dining hours, and long-term vision for the Downtown.

Manager Chi explained that there are terrific staff members that can handle a lot of the issues, but experience through this past year related to COVID-19 has demonstrated the need for enhancements moving ahead. Responding to COVID-19 has required much more social media interaction, as well as the production of more videos, setting up and maintaining multiple websites, and designing of information graphics. A lot of this has been done very well, but the intent of this item is to get approval for "on-call" contracts. This item will not remove responsibilities from current staff, but will provide additional support where needed. Councilmember Hardy expressed her desire to see this as a Study Session item for proper discussion, rather than a Consent Calendar item, stating she cannot support this item tonight because a clear picture of the need, nor how these resources would be integrated with current staff and processes, has not been presented. She further stated that the Council needs to fully understand the PR process so they can react appropriately for the next incident. Mayor Pro Tem Carr stated her opinion that this item is a way to expand options, and expressed her understanding that current staff will be a part of determining when these outside resources are utilized. She further stated that she sees this as an effort to secure expert resources to enhance the City's PR efforts and she supports this item. Councilmember Brenden and City Manager Chi discussed specific details for the type of work these resources would provide, and Manager Chi explained there is staff with a terrific knowledge base and skill set, but the volume of work required on the PR front to meet Council and public expectations is such that it requires more tools and resources on an as-needed basis, which he feels is a better option than hiring more staff. Councilmember Delgleize stated her appreciation for the outstanding job that staff has done and believes it is time for the City to become proactive, rather than reactive, regarding PR, and expressed her support for this item. She also confirmed with City Manager Chi further reporting or a Study Session on the improved PR processes and procedures for the benefit of the incoming Councilmembers. Mayor Semeta explained that from her personal experiences this past year she understands "crisis communication" processes and procedures are critical, and suggested that if this item is approved, there be a follow-up report or Study Session outlining how the PR tools are to be used. Mayor Semeta also thanked Assistant to the City Manager Catherine Jun and Firefighter Paramedic Eric Blaska, who provided her with great PR support this past year. Councilmember Posey summarized his support for the item and his belief it will allow the City to become PR proactive, and sees these companies as augmenting City staff and providing another level of expertise. He also stated his opinion of the importance to share at least a report that explains the PR function, process and procedures with the in-coming Councilmembers. Councilmember Peterson and City Manager Chi discussed that funds for PR services provided by these resources could come from Public, Educational and Government (PEG) funds, or from the City Manager's operating budget, depending upon the specific project. There was also discussion on how to integrate new vendor expenses into the current pool of PEG resources. 17 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 11 of 16 A motion was made by Brenden, second Delgleize to approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute "Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Dakota Communications"; and, approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute "Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Barrios & Associates LLC."

(Contractor), Stacey Newton (Consultant), 4th of July Event Finances, Fiscal Impacts From New Management Plan, Recommended Action and Questions. Councilmember Peterson, as a member of the evaluation team, thanked staff for the excellent process and presentation, and explained that during the RFQ process, Soundskilz, Inc. described their role as filling the talent agent position working with the 4th of July Board as the talent. Councilmember Peterson added that utilizing the history and skills of Consultant Stacey Newton to manage the Board and liaison with Contractor Soundskilz, is fundamental for a successful experience. Councilmember Hardy and Director Slama discussed options and decision makers involved if COVID- 19 impacts the 2021 4th of July celebration, and the fact that contractor representatives and consultant are expected to attend 4th of July Board meetings so everyone can be involved in the decisions made. 18 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 12 of 16 Councilmember Brenden stated his support for keeping the 4th of July Board in their leadership position, and his belief that Soundskilz will be an excellent resource for the Board. He confirmed with staff that there is a 30-day cancellation clause in both the contractor and consultant contracts in stating his support for this item. Mayor Pro Tem Carr expressed concerns about the consultant selling sponsorships, and how to ensure that new sponsors maintain the existing brand. Councilmember Peterson explained that that specific issue was discussed during negotiations, and that the 4th of July Board and staff will manage control. Councilmember Posey and Community Services Manager Chris Cole discussed that Pageantry Productions may still be involved if selected as a subcontractor by Soundskilz. Councilmember Delgleize commended staff for the process and stated her support for their recommendations. Mayor Semeta, as a member of the evaluating team, expressed her excitement for the synergy between the selected contractor and consultant, and stated her support for the item. She and staff further discussed the typical contract cancellation clause which is 30 day notice, for no cause, by either party. A motion was made by Peterson, second Hardy to approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a "Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Soundskilz, Inc. for production and management service of the annual Fourth of July Celebration," and; approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a "Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Stacey Newton, Independent Contractor for consultation service of the annual Fourth of July Celebration."

Director Luna-Reynosa stated for the record that Lisa Wise Consulting did not prepare the ordinance, and thanked the City Attorney's Office for their timely assistance with that. Director Luna-Reynosa also explained that an ordinance has to exist before a fee schedule can be created, and that if this item is approved, a GIS layer will be created for the public's use to see the locations of permitted STRs within the City, including contact information. She also provided some details on how the process, if 19 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 13 of 16 approved, would affect Sunset Beach STRs, and noted that a service provider would be selected to handle the 24-hour hotline and some of the other required services. A motion was made by Carr, second Posey, to continue the item to December 21, 2020. Mayor Pro Tem Carr and staff continued to discuss concerns related to the number of allowed STRs per property/parcel, Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), the responsibility of owners and guests for illegal activity, and support of hosting platforms for the City's regulations. City Attorney Michael Gates and Chief Assistant City Attorney Mike Vigliotta confirmed that the hosting platforms would be treated like any other business operating within the City in relation to City regulations. Councilmember Delgleize and staff discussed some of the surveillance tools that are available to monitor noise levels and property activity, and the fact that the proposed ordinance does not require use of these types of equipment. Director Luna-Reynosa reviewed the process for owners to secure a permit which includes an application, and successful required inspections, before the permit would be issued, as well as the process for addressing neighbor complaints. Councilmember Brenden expressed his appreciation to staff for the tremendous amount of effort required to reach this result, and discussed with Director Luna-Reynosa his concerns regarding owner rentals and number of STR permits allowed, the notification to adjacent properties for awareness, maximum occupancy, using percentages rather than hard numbers to determine allowable number of permits per housing project, hosts being able to hire out for a responsible contact, concerns expressed by some members of the public about having their personal phone number on published documents, annual renewals and required inspections, enforcement standards for illegal activity, enforcing hosting platform responsibilities, and potential fines. Motion by Brenden, second Posey … Councilmember Posey confirmed with Director Luna-Reynosa that applicants need a Business License, and Transient Occupancy Certificate prior to receiving the STR permit, and annual inspections by the Fire Department. They also discussed the need for additional Code Enforcement employees, which was included in the budget, excessive noise will most likely be addressed in an upcoming noise ordinance, legality of stipulating renter's age requirement, fine amount regulated by State law, currently no ceiling on total number of permits, nor distance between STRs. The expectation is that this very restrictive program will be self-limiting. The motion by Carr, second Posey to continue to December 21, 2020 the introduction of Ordinance No. 4224, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Amending the Huntington Beach Municipal Code by Adding Chapter 5.120, Regulating Short-Term Rentals" (Attachment 1) carried by the following vote: AYES: Posey, Delgleize, Carr, Semeta, Peterson, Hardy, and Brenden NOES: None 19. 20-2030 Approved for Introduction Ordinance No. 4223 Amending Chapter 10.44 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code Regarding Recreational Vehicles City Manager Oliver Chi introduced Assistant City Manager Travis Hopkins who presented a PowerPoint communication entitled City of Huntington Beach Recreational Vehicles, with slides titled: 20 Council/PFA Regular Meeting November 16, 2020 Page 14 of 16 Parking of Recreational Vehicles, Proposed Modifications Municipal Code Section 140.44, Other Proposed Modifications Municipal Code Section 140.44, and Questions. City Manager Chi also stated that Interim Chief of Police Julian Harvey and Lieutenant David Dereszynski were available to answer questions. Councilmember Hardy stated support for this item and recommended there be no other changes made regarding recreational vehicles. Councilmember Brenden suggested a wording change that describes vehicle owner residence to clarify that the owner must reside at the permitted address. He also suggested a Study Session be held to allow for a more thorough discussion, proposing to continue the item to a future meeting so that the introduction and potential adoption of the ordinance are addressed by the incoming Council. Additionally, he recommended Council consider an exemption for people with disabilities on the 20-foot vehicle length restriction. Mayor Pro Tem Carr confirmed with staff that even with a parking permit, there is the 72-hour rule, and stated her support for the comments made by Councilmember Brenden regarding a vehicle length exemption for people with disabilities. City Attorney Michael Gates stated that there is another section of the ordinance that addresses that issue. Councilmember Delgleize confirmed with staff that whomever has the parking permit must be the resident of that address, whether owner or renter. She also discussed changing time limits with staff, and there was consensus for not making any changes at this time. Mayor Semeta asked for clarification on "in front of your property" vs "adjacent to your property". Assistant City Manager Hopkins explained this generally would relate to a corner parcel where the vehicle may be parked around the corner (by their side lot) rather than in front of the home. Chief Assistant City Attorney Vigliotta confirmed that the ordinance does state the Chief of Police has discretion over whether or not to issue any permit. Councilmember Hardy stated her expectation that this would be a simple and straightforward ordinance that allows parking of less than 20 foot vehicles, and remove any other references to vehicles over 20 feet. A motion was made by Brenden, second Posey to continue for 60 days the Introduction of Ordinance No. 4223, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach amending Chapter 10.44 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code regarding recreational vehicles." A substitute motion was made by Hardy, second Carr to after the City Clerk reads by title, approve for Introduction Ordinance No. 4223, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach amending Chapter 10.44 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code regarding recreational vehicles." as amended to approve new language as written in Section B only.

Financial Impact: Per the conditions of the Bond Act, the City will be responsible for providing a 20% match of the Per Capita funding amount of $177,952 or of the actual amount of the approved project cost submitted by the City. The estimated 20% match is $35,590 and will be funded through the City’s Park Development Impact Fee Fund 228. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2020-86, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving Application(s) for Per Capita Grant Funds.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: The State of California, Department of Parks and Recreation has completed its allocation process for the Per Capita Grant Program under the California Drought, Parks, Climate, Coastal Protection, and Outdoor Access for All Act of 2018 (Act). Funds in the amount of $177,952 have been allocated to the City of Huntington Beach under the Per Capita program. Community Services is anticipating utilizing the funding for playground improvements at Sun View Park. The Act is the first major park bond since 2002. Under the Per Capita program of the Act, the City has been slated to receive $177,952. Per the conditions set by the Act, a funding match of 20% of the approved project is required by each agency receiving funds - unless the project is located within City of Huntington Beach Printed on 12/2/2020Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™24 File #:20-2048 MEETING DATE:12/7/2020 an area serving a severely disadvantaged community (defined as a community with a median household income under 60 percent of the State average). Currently, there are no sections of the City meeting that criteria. While previous park bonds have allocated significantly higher amounts, the funds provided by the Act will enable the City to address some of the outstanding needs in terms of parks and playground improvements. Currently, such improvements are needed at Sun View Park. The play equipment is over 20 years old. Replacement of the equipment as well as other site improvements are needed in order to address accessibility issues at the park. Sun View is ranked high in terms of need on the Playground Equipment Replacement Priority list approved by Council. Based on preliminary quotes, funding from the Per Capita program along with the 20% match will be sufficient to cover the cost of the project. In order to comply with the conditions of the California Drought, Parks, Climate, Coastal Protection, and Outdoor Access for All Act of 2018, staff is recommending City Council approval of the resolution as presented. Environmental Status: Not applicable to this request. Projects being funded under the grant program will go through the required environmental process as determined by the guidelines established by the State. Strategic Plan Goal: Enhance and maintain infrastructure Attachment(s): 1) Adopt Resolution No. 2020-86, “A Resolution of the City Council of Huntington Beach Approving Application(s) for Per Capita Grant Funds” City of Huntington Beach Printed on 12/2/2020Page 2 of 2 powered by Legistar™25 26 27 28 City of Huntington Beach File #:20-2042 MEETING DATE:12/7/2020 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY:Oliver Chi, City Manager PREPARED BY:Travis K. Hopkins, Assistant City Manager Subject: Adopt Ordinance No. 4223 amending Chapter 10.44 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code regarding Recreational Vehicles Approved for introduction November 16, 2020 - Vote: 7-0 Statement of Issue: Ordinance No. 4223 approved for introduction on November 16, 2020, requires adoption. Recently, it was requested that staff assess the feasibility of allowing Huntington Beach residents to obtain a permit to lawfully park recreational vehicles (RVs) under 20 feet in length in front of their homes. Given that proposal, a draft ordinance was developed that if approved, would provide homeowners the ability to obtain a permit from the Police Department to park RVs under 20 feet in length in front of their home. Financial Impact: Not applicable. Recommended Action: Adopt Ordinance No. 4223, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Amending Chapter 10.44 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code Regarding Recreational Vehicles.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the proposed ordinance and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Currently, the City of Huntington Beach requires a permit to park an RV of any size, a vehicle over 22 feet, or a trailer (as defined in section 10.44.060a HBMC) on a public street. The City has established a permit system which allows residents to obtain permits for the purpose of loading and unloading oversized vehicles. Permits are granted for no more than 12 days in a calendar month , and no more than 144 days in a calendar year. Similar temporary exemptions exist under the exception clause when existing medical conditions limit the off-street parking of an RV or when City City of Huntington Beach Printed on 12/2/2020Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™29 File #:20-2042 MEETING DATE:12/7/2020 permitted construction work requires the use of an RV. The proposed ordinance would amend the Huntington Beach Municipal Code by removing the time and number of occurrence restrictions for parking recreational vehicles under 20 feet in length in front of an individual’s home. Per the proposed regulation, residents would be required to obtain a parking permit from the Police Department, which would allow the smaller RVs to be parked in front of or adjacent to their residence. The Police Department will have the authority to make and enforce rules and regulations for or regarding administration and enforcement of the permit. Environmental Status: The amendment to the Oversized Vehicle Parking Regulations is subject to the “common sense” environmental review exemption of CEQA Guideline Section 15-61(b)(3), which provides that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the parking in question may have a significant effect on the environment. Strategic Plan Goal: Enhance and maintain high quality City services Enhance and modernize public safety service delivery Attachment(s): 1.

On September 21, 2020, City Council approved the authorization of a Request for Proposals (RFP) and the formation of an ad hoc review committee for the commissioning of a public art element in Huntington Central Park. To that end, Mayor Semeta appointed selected members of an ad-hoc committee who worked with staff to complete an RFP process and subsequent artist selection for recommendation. There is now a need for City Council to approve a Professional Services Contract for the commissioning and installation of public art in Huntington Central Park and to appropriate funds in the amount $300,000 for expenditure on the installation. Financial Impact: As of June 30, 2020, the fund balance in the Public Art in Parks Fund 236 is approximately $359,000. As such, funds in the amount of $300,000 are available for appropriation and expenditure. Recommended Action: A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and RDG Art Studio for the Design, Fabrication and Installation of a Public Art Work for Central Park” in a not-to-exceed amount of $300,000; and, B) Authorize the appropriation of $300,000 in the Fiscal Year 2020/21 budget, account 23645001, to be used to fund the fabrication and installation of a public art piece in Huntington Central Park.

Analysis: Staff has been working during the past several months to identify options for the expenditure of restricted art in public parks funds. Of note, in the fall of 2019, staff conducted an online survey to garner community feedback regarding public art in Huntington Beach. The survey results showed a significant amount of feedback expressing the desire for public art in parks, and specifically, in Huntington Central Park. Given those survey results, coupled with staff review, it has been recommended that the City Council move forward to expend restricted art in public parks dollars on a project to be located in Central Park. At the September 21, 2020, City Council meeting, Council authorized Mayor Semeta to appoint an ad -hoc Huntington Central Park Public Art Committee (Committee) to help develop a scope of services for a Request for Proposals (RFP), review the proposals, and recommend to the City Council the final artist selection. The Committee was subsequently formed, comprised of two City Council members, three community members, and two staff. Community Services and Finance staff worked closely with the Committee to conduct the RFP for the commissioning of a public art piece in Huntington Central Park. The RFP was open for submittals from October 19 through November 13, 2020, and eleven artists responded. The proposals were reviewed by the Committee, and the top five ranking artists were invited to participate in interviews. After interviewing all five top candidates, the Committee unanimously agreed to recommend RDG Planning & Design Art Studio (RDG) as the most qualified artist to commission the artwork for the public art project in Central Park. Staff is recommending approval of a professional services contract between the City of Huntington Beach and RDG for the commissioning of public art in Huntington Central Park . With approval of the proposed contract, the Committee and staff would begin working immediately with RDG on project development. Some key terms and milestones of the contract include: - Contract Term: December 8, 2020 - December 7, 2021 - Proposed Milestones (schedule TBD): o Community engagement/input collection conducted by RDG o RDG to present conceptual drawings to Committee for approval o Artist/Staff to present project to the Design Review Board for approval o Fabrication of art o Installation of public art As described in the RFP, the iconic public artwork will be installed in Huntington Central Park within the grass areas adjacent to the library fountain and Secret Garden. It will be original, community and artist generated, and will have to harmonize with and respect the integrity of the unique architecture of the Central Library and natural aesthetic of Huntington Central Park. Per the proposed contract, the payment is set at a not-to-exceed amount of $300,000, and staff is City of Huntington Beach Printed on 12/2/2020Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™35 File #:20-2068 MEETING DATE:12/7/2020 also requesting that Council authorize the appropriation of $300,000 in the Fiscal Year 2020/21 budget, account 23645001, to be used to fund the fabrication and installation of a public art piece in Huntington Central Park.

The peaceful setting is located on open grass fields with extensive tree and flower plantings. The area is used for a variety of activities such as picnics, biking, and strolling along paved paths. There are four playgrounds, a nature center, lakes, equestrian trails and other amenities. The new Senior Center in the Park and the Central Library are located within Huntington Central Park. The Central Library features an open and light filled floor plan, spacious reading decks, a public computer lab and indoor fountains including a spiral ramp water feature. The building was designed by the architectural firm of Richard and Dion Neutra, and completed by Dion Neutra after his father’s death. The modernist facility opened in 1975 and was expanded by Huntington Beach architects Anthony and Langford in 1994. The size of the Library is 115,000 square ft. The proposed site for the new public art piece(s) is behind the Library. The area consists of a grassy hill that overlooks the larger expanse of the park, with potential connectivity points to flat grass patches and pathways. Another adjacent amenity is an area identified as the Secret Garden, replete with a variety of florals, trees, and massive numbers of butterflies.. City of Huntington Beach Public Art Huntington Beach has an outstanding reputation as a great place to live and a destination for tourism due to the beautiful shoreline, wetlands and wide beaches. It is also a city becoming more urban with increased recreation, resorts, housing, retail industries, and cultural opportunities. It is 58 EXHIBIT A hoped each part of the city will become more uniquely defined. In making this identity, the City and developers have also begun to incorporate design and aesthetics into their projects. Pier Plaza, built in 1995, was a cultural watershed for the City. The artist-designed amphitheater and other mural projects were well received and subsequent beach and City revitalization projects have incorporated the work of artists. In 2019, the city established a task force to address the need for a public art masterplan. During the project a survey of the community was conducted that demonstrated a desire on the part of local citizens to have functional art (benches, etc.), interactive art, free standing sculptures, statues and/or monuments in Huntington Central Park. This project seeks to accomplish that objective. On September 21, 2020, the City Council approved the Mayor to authorize the release of a Request for Proposals and the formation of an Ad Hoc Review Committee for the Commissioning of a Public Art Element in Huntington Central Park. Selection Process A selection panel will evaluate submissions and select an artist based on a variety of criteria including the required submission materials and the artists’ understanding of the scope of the project. Short listed applicants will be interviewed. Emphasis will be placed on applicant’s proven ability to undertake projects of this capacity and demonstrated ability to work with government agencies, project designers, and the community, in the creation of an art project.

The peaceful setting is located on open grass fields with extensive tree and flower plantings. The area is used for a variety of activities such as picnics, biking, and strolling along paved paths. There are four playgrounds, a nature center, lakes, equestrian trails and other amenities. The new Senior Center in the Park and the Central Library are located within Huntington Central Park. The Central Library features an open and light filled floor plan, spacious reading decks, a public computer lab and indoor fountains including a spiral ramp water feature. The building was designed by the architectural firm of Richard and Dion Neutra, and completed by Di on Neutra after his father’s death. The modernist facility opened in 1975 and was expanded by Huntington Beach architects Anthony and Langford in 1994. The size of the Library is 115,000 square ft. 73 The proposed site for the new public art piece(s) is behin d the Library. The area consists of a grassy hill that overlooks the larger expanse of the park, with potential connectivity points to flat grass patches and pathways. Another adjacent amenity is an area identified as the Secret Garden, replete with a variety of florals, trees, and massive numbers of butterflies.. City of Huntington Beach Public Art Huntington Beach has an outstanding reputation as a great place to live and a destination for tourism due to the beautiful shoreline, wetlands and wide beaches. It is also a city becoming more urban with increased recreation, resorts, housing, retail indus tries, and cultural opportunities. It is hoped each part of the city will become more uniquely defined. In making this identity, the City and developers have also begun to incorporate design and aesthetics into their projects. Pier Plaza, built in 1995, wa s a cultural watershed for the City. The artist-designed amphitheater and other mural projects were well received and subsequent beach and City revitalization projects have incorporated the work of artists. In 2019, the city established a task force to address the need for a public art masterplan. During the project a survey of the community was conducted that demonstrated a desire on the part of local citizens to have functional art (benches, etc.), interactive art, free standing sculptures, statues and/or monuments in Huntington Central Park. This project seeks to accomplish that objective. On September 21, 2020, the City Council approved the Mayor to authorize the release of a Request for Proposals and the formation of an Ad Hoc Review Committee for the Commissioning of a Public Art Element in Huntington Central Park. Selection Process A selection panel will evaluate submissions and select an artist based on a variety of criteria including the required submission materials and the artists’ understanding of the scope of the project. Short listed applicants will be interviewed. Emphasis wi ll be placed on applicant’s proven ability to undertake projects of this capacity and demonstrated ability to work with government agencies, project designers, and the community, in the creation of an art project.

Walt, the sculptural icon becomes a destination feature in the center of the new C Street Pedestrian Plaza. Positive / negative images of maple trees in pattern-cut weathering steel are illuminated by LED. Passages from the book are imbedded in glass and illuminated by color changing LED. The sculpture creates a gathering place and photographic moment for college ceremonies and welcoming visitors. Title: “Aguas onduladas” (rippling waters) Contact: Rebecca Johnson Owner: City of San Antonio, Texas Year Completed: 2018 Medium: Stainless Steel, Lighting Dimensions: 60ft long 24ft wide x 12ft tall overall installation Budget: $386,660.50 Location: Elmendorf Lake Park, San Antonio, Texas Description: The installation is a marker celebrating nature and culture informed by the context of Elmendorf Lake Park and surrounding Westside neighborhood of San Antonio, Texas. The installation suggesting a visual phenomenon of motion, reflection and light on water coupled with the integration of poetry from Dr. Carmen Tafolla – a native westsider – combine to create a welcoming and iconic entry to the neighborhood park. Three wave forms made of cut and formed stainless steel point to the reimagined entrance of the park through site specific placement creating a meandering path inviting people to walk through to the park. The experience of the installation is both ephemeral and visceral functioning as an iconic marker for both vehicular and pedestrian experiences. Native plants at the base of the forms echo the visual movement of waves creating an inviting and supportive habitat for butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. Interior illumination creates a soft glow that is thoughtful of the site as it changes from day to night. Stainless steel finishes and LED lighting create a welcoming glow suggesting a connection with traditional Mexican Lanterns, a warm glow of a neighborhood front porch and the sparkle of the Lake. The integration of selections of poetry from Dr. Tafolla invite people into the story of the work expressing a universal shared human appreciation of natural beauty and a specific celebration and pride of culture rooted in the neighborhood.

A specific image depicts a scale or fulcrum, representing the idea of balance and judgement. It makes a comparison in weight between an “ideal” and the “real,” and in so doing, a measurement of truth, virtue, justice and equality. The weight of the heart (soul) is lighter than or equal to the feather of truth, an ostrich feather, the symbol of the goddess MAAT, or “truth.” It also shows the representation of justice in nature, featuring the Sweet Chestnut tree, meaning “Do me Justice;” the Rudbeckia, as in a coneflower or black-eyed Susan representing the overall concept of justice, able to thrive if given the opportunity: and Coltsfoot, more likely recognized by the daisy or dandelion, representing “innocence” and that “Justice shall be done.” Title: Gather Contact: Gabriel Rodriguez Owner: Adams County, Colorado Year Completed: 2019 Medium: Weathering Steel, lighting Dimensions: 3 sculptures: 8’x17’x7’; 16’x7’x9.5’; 8’x4’x3’ Budget: $300,000 Location: Adams County Pete Mirelez Human Services Center, Westminster, Colorado Description: Gather is inspired by the story of the Westminster region, once a vast 765-acre apple and cherry orchard. The art forms and textures are inspired by the beauty of nature, gathering, bounty, and abundance shared with community. Title: Sun Pavilion Owner: City of El Paso, Texas Year Completed: 2017 Medium: Aluminum, steel, Tnemec epoxy coating, LED Dimensions: 15’x36’x12’ Budget: $250,000 Location: Blackie Chesher Park, El Paso, Texas Description: Entitled “Sun Pavilion,” the public art installation creates an iconic, destination shade structure for Blackie Chesher Park, a large urban park and sports complex in El Paso, Texas. Inspired by Hueco Tanks, an ancient Desert Archaic and Native American Cultural site, patterns of indigenous plant species are illuminated by the ever-changing and ever-present sunlight during the day, and interior LED illumination at night. Laser-jet cut panels in polychromed aluminum evoke the craft traditions of papel picado, or cut-paper patterns and pierced-metal lanterns of the area.
