LANCASTER POWER AUTHORITY ACTIONS

CONSENT CALENDAR

PA CC 1. Approve the Solar Energy Site Lease Agreement with Morgan Lancaster I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Morgan) and authorize the Executive Director to execute all documents and make any non-substantive changes necessary to complete the transaction.
PA CC 1 attachment

On October 25, 2011, LPA approved a Master Solar Power Purchase and Sale Agreement with Morgan for the purchase and sale of energy to Southern California Edison (SCE) under the CREST program. On August 12, 2012, a Revised Master Power Purchase and Sale Agreement established the ground lease payment to the LPA at 12% of the gross revenue paid to the Developer from SCE pursuant to section 302 of the agreement. This Solar Energy Site Lease Agreement amends Morgan's lease payments from a percentage of gross revenue to a fixed rate.

COUNCIL ACTIONS.

MINUTES

M 1. Approve the City Council/Successor Agency/Financing/ Power Authority Regular Meeting minutes of November 12, 2014.

CONSENT CALENDAR

CC 1. Waive further reading of any proposed ordinances. (This permits reading the title only in lieu of reciting the entire text.)

CC 2. Approve the Check and Wire Registers for October 26, 2014 through November 15, 2014 in the amount of $ 3,724,452.09.
CC 2 attachment

At each regular City Council Meeting, the City Council is presented with the financial claims (invoices) against the City for purchase of materials, supplies, services, and capital projects for checks and Automated Clearing House (ACH) payments issued the prior two to three weeks. This process provides the City Council the opportunity to review the expenses of the City. The justifying backup information for each expenditure is available in the Finance Department.

CC 3. Accept and approve the October 2014, Monthly Report of Investments as submitted.
CC 3 attachment

Each month, the Finance Department prepares a report listing the investments for all separate entities under the jurisdiction of the City as identified in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, the City of Lancaster and the Lancaster Housing Authority.

CC 4. Adopt Ordinance No. 1000, amending Title 9 of the Lancaster Municipal Code by amending Chapter 9.24 (Graffiti), relating to the abatement of graffiti and recovery of the City's costs of graffiti abatement, and adopting a "Graffiti Abatement Costs and Expenses" cost model.
CC 4 attachment

In June 2014, the California Supreme Court held that, because the City of Lancaster had not adopted an ordinance that authorized the probation department to recover the City's costs of graffiti abatement as restitution in a juvenile proceeding, as required pursuant to state statute, the juvenile court had abused its discretion in ordering restitution to the City based on a cost averaging model which is authorized under that statute. Ordinance No. 1000 will amend Chapter 9.24 of the Lancaster Municipal Code to expressly authorize graffiti abatement cost recovery through the juvenile courts. Additionally, it will adopt the "City of Lancaster Graffiti Removal Costs" cost model, which establishes the average cost, per unit of measure, of graffiti abatement for which the city seeks restitution.

CC 5. Award contract for Accela Automation to Accela, Inc. in the amount of $661,810 plus an annual subscription fee in the amount of $49,460, authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the contract and appropriate $434,000 from the IT Reserve Fund to Account No. 101-4315-302.
CC 5 attachment

In November 2000, the City's current permitting software, Permits Plus, was installed. Since that time, no enhancements have been made to the system to allow for efficiencies, streamlined processes, or for new automation to be used effectively. Staff has automated as much as practical but the current system is 14 years old and needs replacement as the technology is obsolete and can no longer be enhanced. In short, the current system limits the city's ability to truly take advantage of online and automated services for the benefit of our community.

CC 6. Adopt Resolution No. 14-66, delegating authority to execute lease agreements to the City Manager.
CC 6 attachment

The City enters into various lease agreements related to the Cedar Center, Impact Homes and other City-owned facilities. This will help expedite the lease process by delegating to the City Manager the authority to execute lease agreements, pursuant to Ordinance 998, which was adopted by City Council on June 24, 2014, and which in part amended Section 2.08.060 of the Lancaster Municipal Code to expressly provide that the duties of the City Manager include executing contracts, agreements, deeds, leases and other documents as authorized, delegated and/or instructed by City Council.

CC 7. Adopt Resolution No. 14-67, declaring its intention to accept an Offer of Dedication located on 7^th Street West and Avenue L-6, east of 10^th Street West and declaring the public necessity therefor.
CC 7 attachment

An Offer of Dedication was executed January 7, 1980, as part of the City's requirements for Parcel Map No. 11759 to provide an offer of right-of-way for 7 ^th Street West and Avenue L-6. The subject easement will be used for street improvements and public ingress/egress once the Offer of Dedication is accepted.

CC 8. Adopt Resolution No. 14-68, approving the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Lancaster and Lancaster Code Enforcement Association and authorize the City Manager to execute the MOU.
CC 8 attachment

The City of Lancaster and the Lancaster Code Enforcement Association agreed to participate in interest based bargaining to arrive at a successor to the Memorandum of Understanding that expires on December 31, 2014. The parties conducted seven meet and confer sessions. As a result of these meetings the parties arrived at a tentative agreement for a new four-year Memorandum of Understanding that will expire on December 31, 2018. The salary and benefits for this nine member unit are the same as those approved for all other employees at the November 12, 2014 City Council meeting.

CC 9. Approve a professional services agreement with RBF Consulting, a Company of Michael Baker International, of Irvine, California in the amount of $282,404.00, with a 5% contingency, to develop the project initiation documents (PID) and produce the Project Study Report (PSR) for the Public Works Construction Project (PWCP) 13-020, SR-138 (SR-14) and Avenue G Interchange project and authorize the City Manager or his designee to sign all documents.
CC 9 attachment

The firm's experience in processing interchange projects, with a local streets component, through all Caltrans phases, strong leadership, solid team, District 7 relationships, understanding of project complexity and importance of interchange, as well as, local improvements and understanding of the City's direction towards complete streets and the desire for context sensitive solutions supports the recommendation to retain the services of the selected firm. This professional services agreement is for the Planning Phase (PSR-PDS).

CC 10. Accept the work constructed by The Truesdell Corporation of California, Inc. for Public Works Construction Project No. 12-005, Bridge Rehabilitation, and direct the City Clerk to file the Notice of Completion for the project. Retention on this project has been disbursed in accordance with California Public Contract Code.
CC 10 attachment

Construction of the project has been completed to the satisfaction of the Utilities and Maintenance Services Manager. The project was substantially completed on April 15, 2014, which was within the time permitted in the contract. The construction quantities and the amount of payment have been approved by the Contractor and the Utilities and Maintenance Services Manager.

CC 11. Adopt Resolution No. 14-69, designating an independent hearing officer to hear appeals of Statements of Abatement Costs.
CC 11 attachment

Chapter 8.28 of the Lancaster Municipal Code (Code) authorizes the City to undertake abatement of unlawful nuisance conditions located on private real property under certain circumstances, and to recover its costs of abatement. The property owner has the right to appeal the statement of abatement costs. Further, holding these appeals before a hearing officer provides a person appealing a statement of abatement costs with an opportunity to be heard in a more timely, expeditious manner.

CC 12. Adopt Resolution No. 14-70, designating the City Manager as the authorized agent to approve all Master and Program Supplemental Agreements pertaining to the implementation and payment of funds for all State funded and Federal Aid transportation projects, and rescinding Resolution No. 00-251 which had designated the Public Works Director as the authorized agent.
CC 12 attachment

The State of California and the Federal Highway Administration administer several programs in which funds are made available to local public agencies for the reimbursement of expenses related to qualifying local transportation projects. The State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is responsible for the disbursement of the Federal and State funds to the local agencies. Caltrans has authorized and encourages all local agencies to adopt a resolution designating an authorized agent to execute all Master and Program Supplemental Agreements covering the various transportation reimbursement programs. This allows for quicker turnaround of such agreements which, in turn, allows for a more expeditious implementation of the projects and reimbursement of costs.

CC 13. Appropriate $700,000.00 from Proposition A Fund Balance to Account No. 207-4330991 and increase estimated revenues by $490,000.00 in Account No. 101-3650101.

Proposition A guidelines allow for the exchange of unobligated Proposition A transportation funds to be exchanged with other agencies for general fund dollars. The City of Duarte contacted Lancaster staff inquiring whether we were interested in exchanging available Proposition A funds. The exchange rate is 70 cents on the dollar, resulting in $490,000.00 in unanticipated general fund revenues.

CC 14. Adopt Resolution No. 14-71, ordering judicial foreclosure of delinquent special taxes in Community Facilities District No. 89-1.
CC 14 attachment

In 1989, the City conducted proceedings under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the "Mello-Roos Act") to create Community Facility District ("CFD") No. 89-1. Those proceedings resulted in the issuance of bonds and levy of special taxes to pay principal and interest on the bonds for the CFD. The special taxes are collected in bi-annual installments that become delinquent if not paid by December 10 and April 10, respectively, of each tax year. Pursuant to the trust indenture regarding the bonds issued for the CFD, the City has covenanted to bondholders to commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against properties within the CFD for which special taxes are delinquent. Resolution No. 14-71 authorizes the initiation of foreclosure proceedings against the properties located in CFD No. 89-1 that have been reported as delinquent as to the payment of special taxes.

CC 15. Adopt Resolution No. 14-72, ordering judicial foreclosure of delinquent special taxes in Community Facilities District No. 91-2.
CC 15 attachment

In 1991, the City conducted proceedings under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the "Mello-Roos Act") to create Community Facility District ("CFD") No. 91-2. Those proceedings resulted in the issuance of bonds and levy of special taxes to pay principal and interest on the bonds for the CFD. The special taxes are collected in bi-annual installments that become delinquent if not paid by December 10 and April 10, respectively, of each tax year. Pursuant to the trust indenture regarding the bonds issued for the CFD, the City has covenanted to bondholders to commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against properties within the CFD for which special taxes are delinquent. Resolution No. 14-72 authorizes the initiation of foreclosure proceedings against the properties located in CFD No. 91-2 that have been reported as delinquent as to the payment of special taxes.

CC 16. Adopt Resolution No. 14-73, ordering judicial foreclosure of delinquent special assessments in Assessment District 93-3.
CC 16 attachment

In 1993, the City conducted proceedings under the Improvement Bond Act and the Municipal Improvement Act to create Assessment District No. 93-3 ("AD 93-3"). Those proceedings resulted in the City's issuance of bonds and levy of special assessments to pay principal and interest on the bonds for the Assessment District. The special assessments are collected in bi-annual installments which become delinquent on December 10 and April 10 of each tax year. Pursuant to the trust indenture regarding the bonds issued for the Assessment District, the City has covenanted to bondholders to commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against properties within the Assessment District for which special assessments are delinquent. Resolution No. 14-73, authorizes the initiation of foreclosure proceedings against the properties located in AD 93-3, respectively, which have been reported as delinquent with respect to the payment of special assessments.

CC 17. Authorize the retention of Aspen Environmental Group for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Del Sur Solar Facility project and related development applications on approximately 725 acres generally bounded by 93^rd Street West, 105^th Street West, Avenue H, and Avenue G.

Silverado Power, LLC has filed two conditional use permit applications (CUP 14-15 and CUP 14-16) for the development of 100 megawatts (MW) of photovoltaic solar power on approximately 725 acres. Due to the size of the proposed project, the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is required as part of the approval process. On October 24, 2014, a request for proposals (RFP) for the preparation of an EIR for the proposed project was sent out for consideration to 12 environmental consulting firms. Five proposals were submitted to the City. Aspen Environmental Group has the relevant experience and staff expertise to ensure the successful completion of the EIR process in a timely fashion.

CC 18. Renewable Generating Facility Site Ground Lease between City of Lancaster and SolarCity Corporation

a) Approve the Renewable Generating Facility Site Ground Lease ("Lease") for approximately 20 acres west of the Lancaster National Soccer Center with SolarCity Corporation ("SolarCity") and authorize the City Manager to enter into a written agreement with US Topco Energy Inc. terminating the Revised Option Agreement between the Lancaster Power Authority and US Topco Energy Inc., Revised Renewable Generating Facility Site Ground Lease, and the First Amendment to Renewnewable Generating Facility Site Ground Lease.

b) Authorize the City Manager to execute all documents and make any non-substantive changes necessary to complete the transaction.
CC 18 attachment

Staff has been working closely with US Topco ("Topco") and SolarCity to develop an energy partnership that will allow for the development and construction of solar facilities throughout the City. On February 8, 2013 the Lancaster Power Authority entered into a Renewable Generating Facility Ground Lease with Topco for 25 acres of property west of the Lancaster National Soccer Center. This property was leased for the purpose of developing a renewable energy generation facility. On July 23, 2013 the Lancaster Power Authority entered into a First Amendment to Renewable Generating Facility Site Ground Lease in order to expand the scope of the project and provide an additional 13 acres of land for development. Since execution, Topco and SolarCity have partnered on the development of the renewable generating facility in order to maximize the effectiveness of the project.

CC 19. Approve the acquisition of the subject property and authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all documents and make any non-substantive changes necessary to complete the transaction.
CC 19 attachment

The City requires the purchase of certain real property identified as Assessor Parcel No. 3130-032-032 and generally located at the northwest corner of Yucca Avenue and BYD Energy Road (East Avenue J-11) in order to accept street and drainage improvements associated with Public Works Construction Project 14-003, BYD Energy Road (Avenue J-11) Improvements. The project constructed street improvements on BYD Energy Road and on a portion of Yucca Avenue to improve access to the adjacent businesses and to improve drainage conditions in the area. Before the project improvements can be accepted, acquisition of the subject property is required. City staff therefore recommends approval of the acquisition of APN 3130-032-032.

CC 20. Provide the City Manager or his designee with Delegation of Authority to approve documents in the event that the City is approved for Emergency Watershed Grant Funding.

The Emergency Watershed Protection Program was created by Congress to respond to emergencies caused by natural disasters. The program is designed to help reduce imminent hazards to life and property caused by floods, fire, drought, earthquakes, windstorms and other natural disasters. The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service is responsible for administering the program locally.

PUBLIC HEARING.

PH 1. Approve Traction Seal Program Fiscal Year 14-15 Budget and Authorize the City Manager to Set Prices, Charges and Terms of Sale of Excess Asphalt Supply within Approved Price Ranges
PH 1 attachment

Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 14-74, approving Traction Seal Program Fiscal Year 14-15 Budget and authorizing the City Manager to set prices, charges and terms of sale of Excess Asphalt Supply within approved price ranges.

The City of Lancaster (the "City) owns certain real property located within its own jurisdictional boundaries (the "Property") that is improved with facilities, equipment and machinery ("Plant") necessary in order to manufacture asphalt rubber binder coatings ("Asphalt") based upon certain core technologies that the City has licensed from Ecostar Science & Technology, Inc ("Ecostar") pursuant to the terms of that certain "Manufacturing License and Sales Agreement" dated as of June 6, 2014. The City may produce a quantity of Asphalt at the Property that exceeds the City's own needs and that the City does not need for its own purposes (the "Excess Asphalt Supply").

Section 304 of the City's Charter provides that "[t]he City shall have the power to engage in any enterprise deemed necessary to produce revenues for the general fund or any other fund established by the City Council to promote a public purpose." Therefore, staff believes it is in the City's best interest to sell the Excess Asphalt Supply on the open market in order to offset the costs to construct the Plant and to produce revenue for the general fund. To that end, this proposed Resolution authorizes the City Manager to establish the prices, charges (including, without limitation, shipping charges), and terms governing the sale of the Excess Asphalt Supply; provided, however that the City Manager may only establish a sales prices between $1.80 and $2.80 per gallon without prior City Council approval.

NEW BUSINESS.

NB 1. Agreement with Pacific Energy Advisors (PEA)
NB 1 attachment

Recommendation:

Approve professional services agreement with Pacific Energy Advisors (PEA) to assist with implementation of Lancaster Choice Energy (LCE) for an amount not to exceed $150,000 and authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the agreement.

The City is in the process of implementing its Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) program to provide electric service to residents and businesses within city limits. The feasibility study indicates that the program, known as Lancaster Choice Energy, can not only recover all of its costs of doing business, but can do so while saving our customers money. Staff recommends contracting with Pacific Energy Advisors to assist with these activities. PEA has provided similar services to both Marin Clean Energy and Sonoma Clean Power, the only two other CCA programs in the state of California, achieving the goals of these programs while saving money for their customers when compared to PG&E.

NB 2. Classification Schedule for Non-Represented Employees
NB 2 attachment

Recommendations:

a) Adopt Resolution No. 14-75, amending Resolution 14-64 establishing a compensation schedule for non-represented employees of the City.

b) Approve adding one position to work force count, bringing total to 252.25.

Over the past several years, staff has been reviewing services that are provided, with the goal of becoming more efficient while saving money. The most recent effort has surrounded attorney services. Based on the analysis performed, bringing the Assistant City Attorney services in house will save the City money while maintaining a high level of service. The City Attorney functions of the City, including the Assistant City Attorney, still report directly to the City Council, while continuing to support and coordinate with City staff. In addition to adding an Assistant City Attorney classification, it is recommended that the classifications of Industrial Waste Technician I, Industrial Waste Technician II, and Public Works Manager be added and the classifications of Utility & Maintenance Services Manager and Utility Services Manager be deleted.

NB 3. Amendment to Agreement for Legal Services
NB 3 attachment

Recommendation:

Approve the Amendment to Agreement for Legal Services ("Amendment") with Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth ("SYCR") and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the amendment.

On June 25, 2013, the City and SYCR entered into an Amended Agreement for Legal Services ("Agreement"), which Agreement provided that an Assistant City Attorney position would be added as a contracted position through SYCR. Since that time, it has been determined that the addition of the Assistant City Attorney has been a good addition, providing more effective service to the City. In our ongoing effort to ensure that we are utilizing City resources in the most efficient manner, it is recommended that the Assistant City Attorney position transition to an in-house City position. The City Attorney functions of the City, including the Assistant City Attorney, still report directly to the City Council, while continuing to support and coordinate with City staff.

NB 4. 2014-2015 Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) Winter Shelter Program (WSP) at the Lancaster Community Shelter

Recommendation:

Authorize the City Manager or his designee to facilitate the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA)Winter Shelter Program (WSP) at the Lancaster Community Shelter and appropriate $73,255 for the WSP to 261-4542-770to fund these programs.

The Winter Shelter Program was established to address the basic shelter and service needs of homeless persons during the period in which Los Angeles County usually experiences its most inclement weather. The WSP will operate from November 1, 2014, to approximately March 15, 2015. These funds will be utilized for operating and supportive service costs associated with providing shelter, housing and services to clients of the Lancaster Community Shelter.

NB 5. Better Built Home Program
NB 5 attachment

Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 14-76, authorizing the implementation of the Better Built Home Program for new home construction and authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all related documents.

City Council tasked the Planning Commission to find ways to improve the sustainability of the community through mandates and/or incentives, such as a mandatory LED lighting requirement on all new development. The Planning Commission received input on a proposed ordinance that mandated the LED lighting requirement on all new development. Because of concerns raised (program too narrow in scope, hurts a struggling business sector, etc.), the Planning Commission set up a working group to explore viable ways to improve the community's sustainability. The Better Built Home Program is part of the long-term strategy envisioned by the working group and the Planning Commission that will ultimately lead our City to become a true net-zero community.
